While talking to the old Taoist, Yu Yu looked into the depths of the cage. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

He found that in the dark, in the most damp corner of the cell, there was a ragged teenager lying sideways, motionless.

The young man looked resolute, but at this moment his face was yellow, his eyes were closed, and he had already fallen into a fainting. Luckily, though, his chest was still heaving slightly, showing that there was still a glimmer of life.

"Nine leaves?" Confusion called softly.

The puzzled face was expressionless, and his tone did not have any waves, but his heart was already full of mixed feelings at the moment.

Jiuye, who is the same age as him, is the playmate who grew up with him, and is also his personal guard. He still remembered that when he was ten years old, he was chased and killed by a century-old demon insect released by the third son, and fled for dozens of miles.

At that time, it was Jiuye who risked his life to save him, relying on a natural brute force, fighting with the ten-zhang giant insect in close combat, and attacking with his own bloodline magic at the same time, the two of them were lucky enough to escape from the bloody mouth of the demon insect.

After that incident, because of the hand-to-hand combat with the adult demon insect at the risk of death, the bones of Jiuye, who was also only ten years old, were shattered, and he was unconscious, and he could only get out of bed and walk for several months after recuperation. Similar incidents have occurred several times.

Whenever he goes out hunting, when he encounters danger, the young Jiuye always far surpasses those adult guards, and he fearlessly rushes to the front.

However, because of the accident caused by the martial arts competition half a month ago, Jiuye was almost killed on the spot by the Marquis of Guichuan.

A cold sweat broke out on his back in confusion, if it weren't for the strange stone eye that happened to crack just now, guiding him to get here, then the consequences would be irreparable. It is conceivable that Jiuye may be like the poor old divine doctor, drained of his blood and aura, and turned into a miserable shriveled corpse.

His face was extremely cold, and he was about to speak, but at this moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps sounded, and several soldiers hurriedly came down the underground passage with torches. Seeing the unconscious prisoners lying in the cell, the soldiers' expressions were also a little shocked. And when they saw the shriveled corpse of the old doctor in the cell, the soldiers all looked at each other in silence.

But after all, they are soldiers in the sacred land, and they are not comparable to other countries, and these people have all experienced real killing and fighting. Soon, they regained their composure, and one by one remained silent. These people are the most trusted guards of the Marquis of Guichuan, and they generally know the identity of the old Taoist, and they probably understand the ins and outs of the matter, and they are one of the few people in this mansion who know about the accident that happened half a month ago.

The middle-aged man in the lead came to Youfu, he glanced at the corpse in the cage, but quickly withdrew his gaze, and did not ask the reason, but respectfully bowed, and asked very earnestly: "Young master, you have a noble status, why did you come to such a dirty and messy place?" The Marquis of Guichuan asks you to go and see him immediately, the city of the Youwang has appeared not far away, and the Nine Shadows Ancient Festival is about to begin, you should leave immediately and rush to the place of sacrifice with the adults to see the Supreme Youwang. ”

Yu Yu stood in place, not moving, he pointed to the unconscious Jiuye in the cell, and said coldly: "I will naturally move, but before that, I order you to release this young man immediately." ”

"Dao Chief," Yu Yu turned his gaze to Mo Lao Daoren, and said indifferently, "Please get out of the way." ”

Mo Daoren was unmoved, still blocking in front of the cage.

The old monster smiled indifferently, showed Bai Sensen's teeth, and said slowly: "Young master, you have begun to be emotional again, and the kindness of a woman is not advisable. This guard has caused you to lose your eyes, which is enough to see his stupidity and recklessness. When punished, he will inevitably hold a grudge against you, and he may leak your secrets and threaten your future, but this son must not be kept. ”

With a slight sneer in his heart, he looked at the old Taoist, and he clearly saw the pair of monster-like dim eyes, and there was bloodlust and greed hidden in their depths. Jiu Ye was born with incomparable divine power, and when he was young, he had a strong body of blood and energy, and he could guess that this kind of thing must be extremely precious nourishment for the demon Daoist who cultivated evil arts.

The leader of the guards looked at the old Taoist with fear in his eyes, and then at the cold face of the puzzle, they were sandwiched between the two, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that these people were still hesitating, and anger loomed on their bewildered and immature faces, the young man Huo drew his sword and said in a frustrated tone: "A mere mortal wanderer, who has just entered the dark land for a day, dares to talk about the secret of his master. Such a bold and evil heart, maybe one day he will reveal the secrets of my mansion, this person is absolutely unavoidable. I am the lord of this mansion, and the guards obeyed the order and immediately killed this demon here. ”

I never thought that the young man in front of him would dare to give such an order, the old man's face was extremely embarrassed, but he was not afraid, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light.

And several guards were also very embarrassed, they did not have any good feelings for this old Taoist of unknown origin, but they had a deep fear. The Marquis of Guichuan who they swore to serve was not here, after all, as the nominal lord of the mansion, since the young master had already given such an order, several people could only pull out the matching knife on their waists, and reluctantly urged the spiritual power in their bodies to confront the old Taoist.

But at this moment, the anger on the bewildered face was swept away without warning.

The young man actually showed a gentle smile, he bowed deeply to the angry Mo Daoren, and said politely, "Dao Chief, it was just a joke just now. The Taoist has been doing his best since he went to Wushan, and he has made great achievements, and he is the person I trust the most, how can he leak the secret of the mansion? I am young and naughty and ignorant, and I have always liked such clumsy jokes, and there is something disrespectful, and I apologize to you here, and I ask the Taoist chief not to mind. ”

What is this perverse tone? The old Taoist cursed in his heart, such a little ghost, obviously just murderous, where did he make any jokes? When I suddenly heard such a statement, I really didn't know what to say.

In the end, the old Taoist had to laugh, give a deep salute, and said: "The sixth son is still childlike, it's just a joke, and the poor Taoist naturally won't mind." Thanks to the trust of the young master, Poor Dao was very pleased. ”

Yu Yu nodded, with a smile on his face, waved his hand casually to the guards who were stunned on the side, and said, "Jiuye is the guard who has followed me since I was a child, and like the Dao Chief, he is also the person I trust the most, and he will never betray me." You open the cage and let Jiuye out, from tomorrow, he will still be the guard by my side, left and right. ”

The old Taoist didn't stop him this time, and let the guards open the cage and carry the unconscious Jiuye out. Although he covets the blood of the Zhiyang, he is a little helpless in his heart, and there is no reason to stop it anymore, if he still says that Jiuye cannot be trusted, then what is he worth?

At the same time, an ethereal bell rang from afar. Everyone knew that the bell represented that the Nine Shadows Ancient Festival, which was held once in a hundred years, was about to begin.

A few guards drove forward on the nine leaves, and the confusion followed closely behind, walking along the road to the ground. After walking out of the dungeon and settling down in Jiuye, he separated from the old Taoist and his guards, and walked alone through the huge mansion.

The bright red morning glow, as gorgeous as rouge, reflected on the noble face of the young man, however, that indifferent face was full of killing intent at this moment......
