Chapter 67: Save You for Me
The fact that the master finally has hope of a cure is exciting news for the entire organization.
After receiving the message from Mo University, the hall masters from all over the country rushed back and gathered together, planning to discuss how to get the spirit rhino grass.
However, when they stepped into the council hall, the first thing they saw was Shen Zhiyou, who was sitting on the right side of the main seat.
Immediately, someone's face sank, and he asked Shen Zhiyou, "Why are you here?!"
Mo Zixuan likes Shen Zhiyou, and almost the entire organization knows about it, but if he really agrees with Shen Zhiyou's identity as the "future housemother", the whole organization can't find anyone at all.
They all felt that no matter what point of view, Shen Zhiyou was not worthy of their master.
Shen Zhiyu glanced faintly at the person who spoke, not bothering to respond at all.
Mo Zixuan is kind to her, it doesn't mean that she has to endure the behavior of this big group of people picking bones in their eggs.
Shen Zhiyou's expression really angered the person who shouted.
"Fuck you......"
"Forget it, Xiao Chuang, today we are here to discuss the master's affairs, don't make trouble. ”
"Phew, I really don't know how the master could fall in love with such a weak girl!"
Shen Zhiyou's eyes narrowed unhappily.
At this moment, Mo Da appeared and stopped the dispute in time.
He made a quiet gesture, and then said to all the people present: "This time I was able to find the whereabouts of the Spirit Rhino Grass, the first person I have to thank is this Shen girl on my right, if it weren't for the clues provided by Miss Shen, I wouldn't have known that there was still a Spirit Rhino Grass in the Heavenly Ember Kingdom Palace...... Miss Shen, thank you. ”
As the leader of the dark guard, Mo Da expressed his gratitude to Shen Zhiyou in front of everyone.
Hall Master Xiao, who was still looking for fault just now, turned pale, shrunk his neck, and stopped talking.
"No thanks, that's as it should be. Your master has also helped me a lot, and it is reasonable for me to watch him in danger without doing my part. ”
Shen Zhiyou replied sincerely.
Shen Zhiyou's attitude made some of the hall masters present soothe their faces, they thought that Shen Zhiyou was a very difficult person to approach, but now it seems that it is still a little different from what they imagined.
Of course, it was only a small number of hall masters, and most of them still looked at Shen Zhiyou very unpleasantly.
Mo Da smiled at Shen Zhiyou with a rare smile on his cold and hard face, and then started today's topic.
The topic they wanted to discuss was how to successfully sneak into the palace of the Emperor of the Heavenly Ember Kingdom and get the Spirit Rhino Grass smoothly.
It was a matter of the master's safety, and everyone was naturally very nervous, and everyone made countless suggestions, which were finally overturned by Mo Dayi one by one.
Wei Lingxiao, the emperor of the Heavenly Ember Country, is not as incompetent as His Majesty in the Flowing Fire Country, Wei Lingxiao's dormitory is heavily guarded inside and outside, and it is difficult for even a fly to enter and exit freely.
They discussed it for most of the hour, but they didn't come up with a final result.
Almost every hall master wanted to volunteer to go to the Heavenly Ember Kingdom Palace to steal the Spirit Rhino Grass back, but none of them had the ability to guarantee that they would be able to escape with their whole body after obtaining the Spirit Rhino Grass.
Just when everyone was at a loss, a clear and calm voice sounded.
"I'll take it. ”
Who?
Following the direction of the voice, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Zhiyou.
For a moment, there was silence.
"Poof...... Hahaha...... You go and get it, Miss Shen, you shouldn't have woken up from a dream yet, right? With your thin arms and legs, the palace guards can crush you to death with a finger!"
One of the hall masters laughed and said, his tone full of contempt.
"Oh?
A dark glint flashed in Shen Zhiyou's eyes.
She suddenly made a move, and in a flash came to the side of the hall master, grabbed his hair and slammed it on the table!
"Bang!"
After the loud muffled sound, a bloody gash came out of the hall master's head!
"Who's crushing who now?"
Shen Zhi asked coldly, but his gaze swept towards all the people present.
The breath in her chest had been held back long enough!
The hall master present, you look at me, I look at you, and after looking at each other for a moment, they all closed their mouths and stopped talking.
It's not that they don't want to support their companions, but once they make a move on Shen Zhiyou, after Mo Zixuan is out of the customs, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
So, they'd better keep silent for now.
Mo Da didn't reject Shen Zhiyou's proposal from the beginning, but as the leader, he had more things to consider.
After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Miss Shen, are you sure you want to go?" This mission has nothing to do with you, we are already very grateful that you can provide clues about the Spirit Rhino Grass, there is no need for you to risk yourself and put yourself in a dangerous situation." Moreover, if you really encounter any accidents, I am afraid that the master will also be very unhappy. ”
It's relatively light to say "unhappy", and the ones who agreed to Shen Zhiyou's proposal are the ones who really have to bear Mo Zixuan's anger.
"I'm sure I'm going, and it's not out of nowhere for me to say that. Among the so many people present, there was no one who knew more about the various secret passages in the Heavenly Ember Kingdom Palace than I did. If you can make good use of these secret passages, the success rate of getting the Spirit Rhino Grass can exceed eighty percent. ”
Secret Dao?Mo nodded knowingly.
"However, with Miss Shen's current strength, it is a bit difficult to come and go freely in the Heavenly Ember Kingdom Palace without being discovered by those guards, right?"
Not only is it "a little difficult", in the eyes of Mo Da, this is simply impossible.
"Don't worry, in my opinion, there are many solutions. ”
Shen Zhiyou curled the corners of her lips and said confidently.
"This ...... Okay, I will send a team of secret guards to secretly follow Miss Shen to protect you, and rescue you when necessary, I hope you can go to the Ember Country smoothly and return safely this time. ”
"Okay, thanks. ”
"No thanks, we should thank you, Miss Shen. ”
Mo Da replied seriously, completely changing his opinion of Shen Zhiyou.
"Hah, isn't it?!!Really let this woman go?" Xiao Chuang couldn't help but blurt out, and roared in a rough voice.
Mo Da glanced at him lightly and said, "If you have a better way, Hall Master Xiao can say it directly, and everyone will discuss it." ”
Xiao Chuang was choked up and stopped talking.
The matter of going to the Ember Country was decided in this way.
When Shen Zhiyou and Mo Da left the council hall, there were still many hall masters behind them expressing their dissatisfaction with the leader's decision.
"The master is lame, but I didn't expect the leader to be stupid. We don't dare to pat our chests and promise to complete this task, so why should that woman say such unashamed and irresponsible words? When the mission fails, who can afford this result?"
"No, that's a mess. ”
"Hmph, what are you afraid of, let's just wait, when she throws her life away in the palace of the Heavenly Ember Kingdom, she will know how to write the word 'regret'. ”
"I'm most afraid that when the leader goes to save her, she will still hold back......"
With Shen Zhiyou's divine sense, how could he not hear these words?
However, she is not in a hurry to argue.
By the time she successfully retrieved the Spirit Rhino Grass, everything right and wrong would naturally be clear.
Shen Zhiyou narrowed her eyes and continued to walk forward very calmly.
———————————————
On the day he left the stronghold, Mo Da found Shen Zhiyou and said to her, "There is one thing that I believe can help Miss Shen." ”
After Mo Da finished speaking, he took Shen Zhiyou to a dark room and took out a box from the dark room.
"At this time, the spirit runes drawn by the first spirit rune master of the Xuanwu Continent that the master has collected over the years, I know that you are a master of using talismans, and this time you will definitely be in danger when you go to the Heavenly Ember Country, I hope these spirit runes will be helpful to you. ”
Shen Zhiyou's heart moved slightly and took the box.
Opening this box that seemed to be quite weighty, Shen Zhiyou's eyes widened slightly in surprise.
In this box, there are not only the spirit runes she drew when she was at her peak, but also the immature spirit runes she drew before she became famous.
Shen Zhiyou involuntarily clenched the box.
Did she and Mo Zixuan really only know each other in this life?
If not, why couldn't she find any memories of Mo Zixuan in her previous life?
Shen Zhiyou's heart was stirred up one after another.
She lowered her eyes, whispered "thank you", and placed the box in the storage ring.
She thought about it, and before leaving, she went to the secret room of Mo Zixuan's retreat.
On the thousand-year-old ice bed in the secret room, Mo Zixuan was in a meditative posture and had been in retreat here for five days and five nights.
Mo Zixuan's face was still very pale, and he always had a handsome face with a ruffian smile on weekdays, but at this time, he showed a bit of seriousness and hideousness because of his clenched teeth.
Shen Zhiyou's heart twitched slightly.
Standing not far or close to Mo Zixuan, Shen Zhiyou said softly:
"Thank you, Mo Zixuan, I know all these things you have done for me. ”
"I still have a lot of things to ask you, and I guess there are a lot of things you haven't had time to tell me, so in this test of life and death, please be sure to persevere until the end. ”
"Hold on to the ...... I'll bring you back from the Ember Country with the Spirit Rhino Grass. ”
After Shen Zhiyou finished speaking, he took one last look at Mo Zixuan, then turned around and left the secret room.
Behind her, Mo Zixuan frowned, as if in extreme pain and struggle.
After leaving the secret room, Shen Zhiyou put her thumb and index finger to her lips and whistled.
There was a sound of flapping wings in the sky, and a fiery red horse landed beside Shen Zhiyou with a snort.
The Fire Spirit Horse was the best spirit horse that Mo Zixuan rescued in the wild last time, and he originally wanted to give it to Shen Zhiyou, but Shen Zhiyou refused to accept it, and this time he ......
"Xiao Lie, I'm afraid, I'll have to ask you this time. Shen Zhiyou gently patted the back of the Fire Spirit Horse and whispered beside it.
The fire spirit horse snorted and rubbed it on Shen Zhiyou's palm, indicating that he understood, no problem.
Shen Zhiyu hooked her lips and smiled.
Due to the fire spirit horse that traveled thousands of miles a day, Shen Zhiyou quickly crossed the border between the Flowing Fire Country and the Heavenly Ember Country, and it took several days and nights to reach the capital of the Heavenly Ember Country.
Getting off the back of the fire spirit horse, Shen Zhiyou walked along the main road of the capital of the Heavenly Ember Kingdom and walked on the bustling streets.
Looking at this familiar scenery and unfamiliar crowds, Shen Zhiyou's heart floated with a trace of complicated feelings.
Actually, she hasn't been away from here for long, and it's only been a few months since she was reborn.
In just a few months, everything has become a matter of fact.
Wei Lingxiao, the current lord of the Heavenly Ember Country, is different from the current saint of the Flowing Fire Country, His Majesty the Emperor of the Flowing Fire Country is old and old after all, while Wei Lingxiao is still young and ambitious, so the guards of the capital and palace of the Heavenly Ember Country are several levels stricter than that of the Flowing Fire Country.
If Shen Zhiyou still wanted to stick an invisibility talisman and come and go freely in the palace like last time, she would definitely not be able to do it.
Wei Lingxiao would not allow such a big management hole in the palace under his rule.
Therefore, if you want to blend into the palace smoothly, Shen Zhiyou has to think of a way.
Seeing that there was a small teahouse next to it, Shen Zhiyou walked in with the fire spirit horse, intending to rest first.
On top of that, in the small teahouse, all kinds of news also circulate the fastest, and she can collect gossip while thinking about what to do next.
No, not long after she sat down, she heard something very important.
"Hey, have you heard? Our Emperor Majesty has been preparing for the draft recently. ”
"Draft?!No, where did you hear the news, Your Majesty, isn't he in love with the queen mother?
"Tsk, you're thinking about it, man, who doesn't want to have a few more beauties? What's more, the queen mother is pregnant now, it's not suitable to do too many things like that, our emperor and majesty are young and vigorous now, how long can you hold back? I definitely have to choose more beauties to fill the harem." ”
"That's right...... Hey, your news doesn't work?"
"Spirit, of course. I heard that those beauties selected from all over the world will arrive at the post house in the capital one after another in the next few days, and we will soon be able to catch a glimpse of their demeanor. Maybe a few of them will become the future imperial concubines, hehehe......"
In the next conversation, Shen Zhiyou was no longer listening.
She slowly picked up the teacup and took a gentle sip.
Draft?
Shen Zhiyou's eyes flashed.
She had already thought about how to enter the palace of the Heavenly Ember Kingdom smoothly.
