"Lord, go back to the royal capital as soon as possible. Tomorrow I will reject you in public..."

"Good is good, why is it weird?"

"Nothing... It's just that I suddenly felt a little emotional. ”

Murong Yanran sat on the stone chair in the pavilion, looking up at the starry sky, the stars were like water, "Lord, I heard that there is more than one in this world, and there is a fairy palace in the sky, and there is a demon island hidden overseas, and we are just poor worms imprisoned in the bottom world...

In this world, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, and I..."

Xia Ji sat beside her and smiled, "What's the matter, are you tired of eating small fish?"

Murong Yanran was stunned, her eyes smiled into a crescent moon, and she swallowed "I'm just a little shrimp".

"I really want to be with the Lord all the time, and guard the bridge for the Lord... Forever..."

Xia Ji narrowed his eyes: "What's wrong?"

Bai Peach smiled happily: "It's nothing, I just think that the Lord needs to return to the royal capital soon... I don't care what the world says, I really envy the Lord for having such a family, so please cherish it. ”

Xia Ji's expression remained unchanged.

The two were silent for a while, and Xia Ji nodded and said, "Okay, I'll leave tomorrow." ”

...

Next.

As a drama spirit, Yama Luo Tianzi and Meng Po, who is also a drama spirit, directed a bloody drama of "we are impossible".

In the secretly happy eyes of Murong Chen, Murong Xing and others, Xia Ji withdrew gloomily.

Situ Buji of the White Tiger Torture Hall directly arranged for the strong man to escort Xia Ji back to the royal capital, but he was refused.

So, Situ Buji decided to let those strong people secretly protect...

Even... He also wanted to direct a scene of "saving Xia Ji".

Send some people to pretend to be robbers to rob Xia Ji, and then at the last moment, let the strong people they arrange save Xia Ji...

But after thinking about it, I dispelled it.

Because, he can't afford to gamble.

On the other side, Xia Ji was also leisurely, throwing some silver and finding a carriage.

Coincidentally, the coachman was also a man with a ruined face.

This man's temperament can really only be said to be mediocre, just like the disfigured boy who rowed for Xia Ji on Changhong Lake last winter.

He is not only mediocre, but even a mute, if he hadn't worked as a coachman in Jiangnan for ten years, his family background was clean, and his identity was innocent, Situ Fuji would not have let his car come to Xia Ji.

Now... Seeing that it was this coachman, Situ Buji didn't say anything, just asked the master to protect this General Xia in secret, until he returned to Tianque safely, and then let him know that he had contributed, and then returned.

This coachman is very good, he is an old driver, the car is not in a hurry, just so leisurely towards the royal capital, anyway, the back compartment is full of dry goods, wine, and Xia Ji picked good delicacies, enough to eat for more than a month.

Grunt...

The carriage followed the winding road, along the flat official road, and slowly traveled under the firmament, sometimes in light rain and sometimes in sunny days.

The strong men sent by Situ Fuji kept their distance and followed on horseback from a distance.

In a flash, three days passed.

...

On the streets of Gusu in Jiangnan, the juggling troupe came from nowhere, throwing flying knives, spinning scissors, stepping on colorful rolling balls, spitting fire, crushing boulders on their chests, and some riding lions in the fire ring...

Such rare things make the people of the rivers and lakes, scholars, or officials, and the people can't help but stop and watch, cheering "good".

And in the midst of this noise, no one noticed a figure wearing a hood walking quickly in the shadows.

The figure was like a ghost, and no one could notice him as soon as he stepped into the shadows.

Walking through the crowd is like water and the sea, and there is no trace of it.

And even in front of a certain patrol, the experienced old patrolman only felt that he had passed through an ordinary person, and he didn't even have the idea of looking sideways again.

The Gusu Murong family is built next to the corner of West Lake, which is half a village and half a lake, and there are islands in the middle of the lake.

The hood shadow burrowed into a shadow again...

He is like a real ghost, and he can even be said to be walking safely in the Gusu Murong family.

There are naturally many people in the family, and even the defense is stricter than that of the government.

However, the shadow seemed to know exactly where everyone was, and as he walked, he would not meet anyone, and even if he did, he would not be discovered.

If viewed from a high altitude, this scene is simply a little terrifying.

He soon came to a small hidden black stone by the lake, sat down quietly, his consciousness was released, and the island in the middle of the lake in the distance slowly enveloped his consciousness.

But nothing happened.

The visitor was patient, his hood pressed low, followed by a Yama mask.

...

...

Midnight falls.

A lonely boat swung into the water and went to the center of the lake.

The people on the lonely boat were naturally Murong Yanran.

Her complexion was very complicated, and the bamboo pole pushed away the water waves rhythmically.

Boat on the edge of the island.

Tether.

Ashore.

There was already the head of the Murong family waiting for her on the shore.

"Yanran, you did a good job, I wronged you. ”

“...”

"I have discussed with several family elders, in order to let you adapt to the life of the Jiang family, after seven days, we will arrange a family mission to escort you to the Jiang family.

Senior Jiang, that is, your future husband, has also acquiesced.

So, you're ready to prepare. ”

"What about her?"

"If it weren't for her fate with you, the Murong family would not have placed her in the holy land of the family to cover the demonic energy. ”

"I want to see her again. ”

"I can only see it from a distance, and now the demonic energy on her body is in a state of aggression, if she gets too close... Those demonic qi will hurt you, and last year's Murong family went crazy with two servants, and it was because of this demonic qi. ”

"Good..."

"Don't come close, she... There is very little waking time each day, and if she sees you, she will really go crazy. ”

Bai Peach sighed deeply, "Okay." ”

"Then come with me. ”

...

"What the hell is this place and why is it so cold?"

"This is the Cold Jade Cave in the Holy Land of the Murong Family, and cultivating in it will get twice the result with half the effort, and it is also the reason why my Murong Family has produced many masters and endured for a long time.

This is the big secret of my Murong family, and only a few people in the family know about it.

Yanran, as the wife of Senior Jiang in the future, is naturally also the high-level of my Murong family, so you are also qualified to know. ”

“...”

"Okay, the cold jade cave is deep underground, and the prison house at the bottom of the lake is where she is, take a few more looks, you're about to go out. ”

"Head of the house, why did she become like this?"

This was the only way to save her back then, human life was too fragile, and she became a demon by chance, although it was unfortunate, but it also saved her life. ”

"Hey..."

Be quiet.

A long silence.

The girl quietly looked at her behind the window in the distance, and her eyes showed an extremely complicated look.

"Yanran, it's time to go back. The head of the house glanced at "her" in the prison at the bottom of the lake, and urged quietly.

"Hmm..."

The two figures walked out of the cold jade cave again, Murong Yanran got on the lonely boat, the lonely boat was leisurely, and the bamboo pole shattered tonight's moon consummation.

After midnight, suddenly black clouds covered the moon, the weather was a little colder, and it seemed that it was another coming spring rain, just with a little cold.

The original bright water surface of the entire West Lake also suddenly dimmed...

A green reed suddenly blocked the water, as if it was moving towards the center of the island with the waves.

It's just that this reed is moving very fast.

And above the reeds, even if you try to look, you can't see that seemingly non-existent shadow of horror is standing on the reeds.

A reed crosses the lake.
