However, presumably Hua Qian didn't know that "Meng Sujiao" was the identity of Wuxiang, he was deliberately lured out of the Shuren Array by Wuxiang in a daze, and then there was no doubt that he was directly stunned by Wuxiang, just because he was afraid that he would make a mistake when he was awake, and when he woke up, he was already lying in a strange stone room.

Therefore, Hua Qian only knew that the national master of the Dao Wuxiang was the newly appointed leader of Teng Snake Shake Guang, and he didn't want him to know about the Dao, and he knew very little.

And this trip to the Ying Imperial Kingdom to help Yu Ziying, firstly, he was forced by some kind of powerful poison from Wule, and secondly, because of the original deal with Yu Ziying, and the last one was to find out the truth about the Teng Snake royal family.

"It's okay right now, maybe you can talk to me about the Teng Snake Seven Sects, I heard you say that Tianshu is built underground, right, so how do you live?"

There are some things that still need to be resolved sooner rather than later, especially when Yu Ziying feels that her time is getting shorter.

She lay on her back on a soft slump, her face covered with a layer of cotton gauze soaked in a pungent syrup, which was necessary to repair her skin after the mask was removed.

Generally speaking, masks are also divided into long-term and short-term wear, such as Yu Ziying, which is a long-term wear, but the effort required is not less.

"How do you live?" Hua Quan's brown eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was reminiscing or hesitating, and after a while, he lowered his eyelashes and continued to squat in front of the basin to clean his mask with a wisdom brush.

"It was a deep underground cavern, it was cold, it was like a person being thrown into an ice cave with no clothes on, and it was also very dark, except for a few places where there was light, the rest of the place as far as the eye could see was pitch black...... It's been about seventeen years since the Teng Snake Clan was wiped out, and we've been living underground for more than ten years since the clan elders urgently closed all the entrances and exits of Tianshu. When the grain in the local cellar was eaten, we dug up the roots around us, ate the mudworms (earthworms) dug out of the soil, the rotting animal carcasses that fell from the cliffs, and drank the accumulated dew, rainwater, and muddy water...... Anyway, everything you can imagine can eat......"

Yu Ziying breathed slowly, listened silently, and did not interject, she knew that he didn't need her words or comfort, he just wanted to find an excuse to vent the heaviness and grievances in his heart.

"At that time, the children of Hua's family were afraid of the cold, but unfortunately there were no extra clothes in the clan to take care of everyone, and I couldn't stand the cold at that time, so I asked the elder of the Zhi clan, why are you adults not afraid of the cold? Patriarch Zhi said, because we adults have internal strength to defend themselves against the instinctive cold of the body, if you want to be as afraid of the cold as adults, you must practice well, it is ridiculous, that is, from that time, for such a ridiculous reason, the children of Fahrenheit practiced vigorously, just to be able to wake up from the cold before going to bed next time......"

"There is no medicine underground, and if someone is really seriously ill, there is only a dead end to wait, so we don't dare to get sick or ......."

Hua Quan chattered about what happened when he was a child, from how old he was to his teens, how naughty he was and how he got into trouble, how he practiced and tricked, about the friends around him, about what he had no choice but to give up in order to survive, and what he got because of his hard work......

"I thought that this dark and terrifying life would not take long, but we have passed more than ten years, and after more than ten years, we will think that we will wait for more than ten years? How many more than a dozen are there that they need to wait for? In fact, we can still tolerate the life of waking up like this, not knowing whether it is day or night, except for training, worrying about when we will die of illness or starvation, but do you know what was more painful for us at that time? Hua Qian clenched his palms, raised his face, the green tendons on his forehead protruded, and his breathing overlapped violently, as if he was engaged in some kind of complex and painful psychological struggle.

"There is no hope and no light to see."

Yu Ziying stretched out her hand to tear off the gauze covering her face, looked at the sky with a pair of dark and waveless eyes, and said lightly.

Hua Quan was stunned, as if he was very surprised how Yu Ziying could say their psychological feelings so accurately, but soon he felt that there was nothing special about being able to guess a demon like her, so he continued in a hard voice: "That's right, our Hua clan seems to have been walking on a dark road, at first we thought that we would soon be able to break through the darkness and see the light, so we walked patiently and slowly, but after walking a long way, we found that maybe this was not the case, so we started to run, we don't know what lies ahead of the road, I don't know how far away the road is from the so-called end, but I can't stop running towards the front of the road where there is no hope at all...... It's desperate......"

Speaking of the last one, he showed a sad and sarcastic smile that was completely inconsistent with his age, as if he had gone through many difficult journeys.

"Hua Quan, there is no desperate situation in the world, only people who are desperate for the situation." Yu Ziying turned her face sideways and told him what others had told her, that the face that had just been removed from her mask was a bloodless pale, but the suddenly resolute eyebrows were incomparable, as clear as pure snow and ice.

"It can be said that you are a person who has come out of hardship and pain, so I ask you now, at the moment when you regain your light and freedom, in addition to deeply remembering those painful memories of the past, what else have you gained?"

Yu Ziying's point-to-point question made Hua Quan's head explode, and he was confused, he stopped his movements, and his face stiffened.

"You still haven't come out of the past." Yu Ziying flicked her sleeves and stood up, she walked to the window lattice of the bedroom, and then reached out to push open a window, and suddenly a large amount of light outside poured into the room like a tide, and the sudden light made Hua Qian can't help but shush his eyes, he subconsciously reached out to block it, as if his eyes were stabbed by the strong light.

"If the heart is at ease, there is a place of peace everywhere, and if God is at peace, where is the turmoil and turmoil?" Yu Ziying stood in the dazzling light with her hands in her hands, the dazzling white beam of light blurring her physical figure into a hazy light and shadow, but her words pierced Hua Quan's heart very clearly and sharply.

"It's easy for you to say, who wouldn't say such a free and easy thing, if you have experienced something like me, I'm afraid you are not as good as me!" Hua Qian glared at Yu Ziying fiercely and sneered.

"That's right, I haven't experienced the life you are talking about, but I know that those who have lived with you are each stronger than you, why are you who should have been trained to 20 years old to be a teacher, and now you are still banned from going out of tasks in the Heavenly Hub, don't you understand what is wrong with you until now?" Yu Ziying's words were like needles, and he was ruthlessly exposed.

The sneer on the corner of Hua Quan's mouth froze, and he stood up angrily and yelled at her: "What are you doing?!" It's not because I think I'm impetuous, it's not because I'm not motivated, it's because it's ......"

"How can people who complain about the bad environment all the time be reassured? Have you ever heard a saying that if you want to protect your feet, it's easier to put on a pair of shoes than to put on a carpet for the whole world, you can't change the world, you can't even change the embarrassing environment of a people, like this, what are you doing? What do you want to do? Yu Ziying was impatient to hear this, and she directly waved her arm to interrupt him and continue to complain.

"I, I...... What exactly are you talking about? I don't understand. As soon as Hua Qian touched Yu Ziying's extremely black pupils, he couldn't help but flicker for a moment, and turned his head angrily.

"Look at me!"

A voice resounded in Hua Quan's mind like thunder, he trembled, raised his eyes suddenly, and looked at Yu Ziying with a terrible expression.

"Ideal? Dream? That kind of thing can give you hope in a desperate situation, but what can you do if you are blinded by an illusory illusion that has not yet been realized, but you can't see the real situation in front of you? Yu Ziying paused for a moment, and slowly exhaled a breath as if she was not used to saying too much in one breath, before continuing: "Hua Quan, the gray memories of the past should not become your resistance, but should become the furnace and fire that exercises your heart and will, you should know what Fahrenheit expects from you, but you always want to escape, think about escaping the relatives, friends and ...... A place for painful memories. ”

Hua Quan's pupils were suffocated, and the whole person was like thunder because of her words, and he sat back in place, he lowered his head, and pulled his hair like crazy in frustration for a long time.

"That's right...... You're right, I just don't want to go back to that damn place, I ...... I don't want to go back...... It's their business that they want to stay in that hellish place and wait for the Snake Royals to return, and I don't want to, even if they look forward to it like that, even if they ......"

"It's not that you don't want to go back, but you're afraid to go back, like the kind of person who finally regains the light, you will always be afraid to go back to the cold darkness, but if you don't overcome this fear, then you will face this fear everywhere at any time, and others may be able to pull you when you need it most, but if he lets go, you will still fall back into the precipice...... It's ugly, but that's the reality. ”

Yu Ziying knew how uncomfortable it was to tear apart other people's scars like this and force him to face the purulent wounds, but as long as he had nothing to do with her, she wouldn't care about this, especially since he not only had something to do with her, but also had something to do with the time bomb of laziness, so she had to choose this psychological counseling way to snatch his heart back, he belonged to her Yu Ziying's Teng Snake Seven Sects, and his loyalty should be the same as Teng Snake Tianshu, even if he had fallen into the darkness of the abyss, he could still regain his light.

And she never doubted the loyalty of the Seven Sects of the Teng Snake, she was able to wait firmly in that environment, this loyalty can be seen in the world, even if they have chosen someone else as the master now, she is still willing to give them all her trust.

The conversation between the two fell completely silent, and neither side spoke for a long time.

"You...... Why are you suddenly taking care of my business? ”

In the end, it was Hua Qian who took the lead, he irritably picked up the bun that was torn by him just now, and asked angrily.

He is not a person who does not know what to do, to be honest, the tone of her heartfelt words is similar to that of those clan elders who had admonished him, although it is not so profound, nor is it so ruthless and ruthless, but he can still hear that she wants to help him dig out the rotten tumor in his heart.

But...... Isn't she, hasn't she always been a cold-blooded person who can still be lucky even if someone else dies at her feet? Why do you care so much about him all of a sudden?

It's scary, okay, inexplicably he feels a conspiracy against him, whether he likes it or not, he pounces on him.

"Then why are you willing to confide in me things that are inhumane?" Yu Ziying closed the window again, she now showed her true face, and naturally she had to be on guard at any time to be seen by outsiders.

For what?

Because he felt that there was no need to hide it, because he felt that although she was cold-blooded and ruthless, she was not a person who would go around publicizing other people's private affairs, because he felt that she was ...... He straightened up and asked cautiously, "You are from the Teng Snake Clan, right?" ”

Yu Ziying's eyelids lifted slightly, and the dark pupils looked a little hollow: "Where did you get this conclusion?" ”

This is neither denied nor recognized.

"I heard it from Mairaku's attitude and what he said to me." Hua Qian gave the answer very happily.

"Oh, so you've let your guard down on me because I'm from the Teng Snake Clan, but you tell me the truth about all the questions I ask?" Yu Ziying threw out a sentence lightly.

"You're dreaming! I just think that since you are a member of the Teng Snake Clan, you will know the way of this kind of thing, and you can't betray your own people. Hua Qian rolled his eyes at her.

Yu Ziying shook her head: "You are too naïve!" Even the people of the Teng Snake clan are not all harmless, you have to know that the Teng Snake clan has been wiped out by people, whether it is an internal thief or an external trouble, and even if there are surviving Teng Snake people, more than ten years have passed, time has changed, and people are not necessarily all good people who can be trusted. ”

Hua Qian was stunned for a moment, as if he pointed at her unacceptably, and glared: "You, why do you say that about your people?" ”

"I'm just telling the truth, you have too little contact with the complexity of the human heart, after all, you have always lived in an isolated place...... If there is anyone in this world who can be completely trusted by you, then that person can only be me, remember it. Yu Ziying said.

"Y-why are you so thick-skinned!" Hua Qian glanced her up and down, and sneered disdainfully.

"What is the entrance and exit of the Seven Snake Sects opened?" Yu Ziying directly ignored his opinion and asked another question.

Hua Qian thought about it, and replied indifferently: "I heard that it is the seven-axis danqing, there seems to be some secret on it that can be opened, I don't know the specifics, I just heard what Elder Zhi said......"

Yu Ziying remembered that at the beginning, greed seemed to have privately searched for the seven-axis Danqing, but it seemed that things were far from being so simple now.

For example, who painted the seven Danqing? At the beginning, the Teng Snake clan had already known that there was a catastrophe of extermination, and they prepared the seven-axis Danqing in advance, or who drew the clues according to what they knew?

Could it be ......

Yu Ziying felt as if she had fallen into a big trap, or a bureau that she didn't know who had set up the road, at first it was calm, but when the net gradually closed, all these unstable factors began to gradually surface, and she thought that there would be more and more useful clues.

The Imperial Palace of the Asahin Kingdom

In the Chonghua Palace, a Miaoman figure with a team of colorful clothes and pink butterflies came one after another.

The leading woman's neck is soft, graceful, it is really Liruo Spring Plum Blooming Snow, God is like Autumn Hui Frost, the cheeks are melting, the Xia Ying Chengtang, the eyes are crystalline, the moon shoots the cold river and smiles, she came to the magnificent Chonghua Palace Gate, two rows of deep palace guards did not stop it, but the two eunuchs in front of the hall hurriedly raised a flattering smile and moved to each other: "It's Yuwen everyone, why are you here today?" ”

Yuwen Qinglian smiled softly: "I heard that Your Majesty has been busy with state affairs recently, and you have forgotten to sleep and eat, so I have prepared some things to calm your stomach and want Your Majesty to relieve your fatigue." ”

"Eh, seeing that the concubine selection ceremony is about to be held, there are many gifts sent by this marriage country, and your majesty has been really busy recently, how can you care about eating on time, and I don't dare to disturb rashly......" The eunuch said His Majesty sighed with a distressed face.

"I don't understand the major affairs of the country, so I won't discuss them in private, I want to meet His Majesty, I don't know if His Majesty is willing to take the time......" Yuwen Qinglian frowned lightly as if worried.

"Yuwen, everyone is not an outsider, originally our family should have entered for you to ask for this trip, but just a moment ago, His Majesty gave a death order, no one is allowed to enter......" The eunuch looked a little embarrassed.

Yuwen Qinglian was stunned for a moment, her eyes were like smoke, revealing a few traces of essence, she pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Could it be that something happened?" ”
