Chapter 255: Nightmare Soul Eater
Ye Xuanchen closed his slightly tired eyes, reached out and rubbed his sour eyebrows, and put away the memories he had just made in the imperial study. He couldn't let Suizuki see that he had anything unusual.
In the following days, Meng Ziyi seemed to suddenly fall silent, almost did not appear in front of Shui Yue, and occasionally appeared, also under the condition that Ye Xuanchen was there, Meng Ziyi seemed to have no impression of the battle between the two before, and treated Shui Yue with extra kindness, Shui Yue just looked at it lightly in the face of such a dream Ziyi, and it was not like before.
And Ye Xuanchen looked at the way the two of them got along that could almost be described as "getting along in harmony", and he was obviously very satisfied.
Meng Ziyi's "illness" flare-up on a rainy day, Ye Xuanchen was so worried that he almost **** went to visit, Shui Yue didn't know what Meng Ziyi's idea was, so he could only be vigilant and careful everywhere. Of course, she won't remind Ye Xuanchen as directly as she did last time, because she understands the position and importance of Meng Ziyi in Ye Xuanchen's heart.
And the murder in the palace will happen once in a few days, all of them will die in some remote places in the palace, quietly. Shui Yue, flying sand, and dust almost exhausted all kinds of methods to prevent the occurrence of another murder in advance, and almost every night they stayed in the sky above the palace to investigate carefully, and if there was a slight mistake or a trace of blood, they would arrive as quickly as possible, but none of them had time to save the innocent lives who died at the hands of the monster.
Shui Yue even went to monitor Meng Ziyi's dormitory in person, but still didn't find any progress or abnormalities.
They don't understand, every time they can't notice anything, why are there still palace maids who die in different places at irregular times and at random points?
Shui Yue looked at the body of a woman leaning on the edge of a dry well with a solemn expression, the woman obviously had just died, and her death was the same as before, so miserable that people couldn't bear to look at it directly. The brows of flying sand and dusty are also tightly furrowed.
"This is the seventh person to die this month."
Shui Yue didn't speak, but a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.
They appeared here as fast as they could, and she could be sure that the palace maid in front of her had just lost her breath, but why couldn't she feel her soul existing? And there is no smell of black and white impermanence around, so where did this person's soul go?
Moreover, normally speaking, if someone dies in the world, shouldn't there be ghosts in the underworld to deal with it? Why did so many people die in a row, and they are still in the same place, but they never see any ghosts coming?
Don't......
The souls of the dead were devoured?
As soon as this thought rushed into Shui Yue's mind, Shui Yue seemed to be struck by something. Isn't Dream Ziyi not only sucking the energy stocks in human dreams, but also becoming powerful by sucking people's souls?!
"This man's soul should have been eaten by nightmares."
As soon as Shui Yue's words came out, Feisha and Yangchen glanced at each other in surprise. They really haven't met a monster that sucks human souls, they only know that there are some things that rely on killing each other, and then sucking the cultivation and soul of the same kind to improve their cultivation, but they have really never seen one that sucks human souls.
"We can't go on like this...... We've got to figure it out. ”
Shui Yue was muttering to herself, more like telling herself that she had to stop it.
After Shui Yue returned to the "Heart Cultivation Palace", she kept her eyes open and thought of the dawn, and when the dawn broke, she suddenly saw the sunlight shining into the room, reflecting a light and hitting the roof, and she could faintly see a few looming shadows reflected on the roof. Shui Yue's eyes lit up, and she looked at the ground again, and the mirror-like marble floor really reflected the object, and after the sunlight, it reflected on the roof.
A flash of inspiration flashed in Shui Yue's mind, and an idea suddenly occurred in his heart.
She summoned Feisha and Yangchen and told her thoughts, and Feisha and Yangchen's eyes showed a look of surprise.
After Shuiyue discussed with the two, the two also felt that the method was very feasible, but Shuiyue had another layer of worries.
"However, if I try to cast a spell to set up a clone of my magic mirror over the entire palace, it will be easy for the Nightmare to detect it, and she will be wary of it then. If we want to catch her and stop her, we have to keep things going quiet. Therefore, the two Xuan Immortals still need to find a way to cover the little immortals. ”
Feisha and Yangchen nodded clearly, and after the three of them decided, they prepared to act separately at night.
The moonlight was thick, and the water moon appeared silently in the sky above the imperial city, she took a breath, closed her eyes gently, and shrouded the entire palace in an enchantment. On the other side, the flying sand and dust also cast spells at the same time, setting up another barrier, covering Meng Ziyi's bedroom separately.
Shui Yue cast a spell, and a huge mirror appeared behind him, the delicate mirror body was more than a person high, and the mirror body soon turned into countless faces, as if it was an infinite copy, surrounding Shui Yue in the center, and slowly rotated.
Shui Yue opened her eyes suddenly, her arms flashed, and she shouted violently: "Disperse!" ”
The mirrors on all sides received the command, quickly scattered in all directions, flew in different directions, and then silently disappeared into the darkness.
After doing all this, Mizuki quickly withdrew the barrier, and then took a deep breath. The net has been sprinkled, and it is waiting for the fish to enter the net.
A few more days passed, and the battle for the palace seemed to restore calm to the sea, and there were no more murders. But Shui Yue still didn't dare to slack off, keeping an eye on every movement in the palace at any time. Shui Yue would use her divine sense to inspect the situation in the mirror every night, but she found nothing after all.
Meng Ziyi's condition seemed to have "improved", and at noon, he called someone to invite Ye Xuanchen to come to the "Purple Clothes Bed" to get together, and invited Ye Xuanchen to come to the "Purple Clothes Sleep" for dinner, so in the evening, Ye Xuanchen asked the small basket to go to the "Heart Cultivation Palace" to inform Shui Yue of his whereabouts.
When Ye Xuanchen came to the "Purple Clothes Bed", Meng Ziyi was instructing the palace maid to change the position of Ye Xuanchen's favorite meal, Ye Xuanchen saw such a caring Dream Ziyi, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull a smile.
Hearing everyone's greetings, Meng Ziyi raised her head to look at Ye Xuanchen, who walked in and out of the door, and a sweet smile immediately appeared on her face.
"Brother Xuanchen, are you here? I've just been prepared, and you're here just in time! ”
Ye Xuanchen stepped on the edge of the table, looking at the dishes on the table, almost all of which were his favorite flavors, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Why don't you let the imperial dining room prepare a few more dishes of your favorite food?"
His heart is warm, and for Meng Ziyi, this feeling is also greedy for him.
"Brother Xuanchen likes to eat, and Ziyi also likes to eat. Brother Xuanchen, sit down, otherwise the food will be cold in a while. ”
Ye Xuanchen smiled knowingly, sat down, and the two ate dinner without saying a word.
On the other side, Shui Yue, who received the news that Ye Xuanchen would not come back, was carefully investigating everything in the palace, Meng Ziyi and Ye Xuanchen were having dinner now, so Meng Ziyi should have no time to commit the crime, but Shui Yue still felt that she should be foolproof and not let go of any possibility.
And at this moment, a purple demonic aura was quietly swimming out, and a tail appeared in the mirror of Shui Yue. Shui Yue's heart fell, and she flew out after stealth, she waited for so long, and finally let her wait!
But after she flew out, while tracking the trajectory of the purple demonic energy, she also thought that Meng Ziyi should be with Ye Xuanchen at this time, and she would even separate the Yuan Shen to harm people!
After Meng Ziyi and Ye Xuanchen had dinner, Meng Ziyi proposed to go out for a walk. In the evening sunset, only a small head was still exposed in the sky, and the moon on the other side also quietly showed its face, and the two walked slowly in the night, Ye Xuanchen actually felt that his heart was rare at this time.
"Brother Xuanchen, have you had a lot of troubles happening lately?"
Meng Ziyi observed Ye Xuanchen's expression and asked softly.
Ye Xuanchen smiled lightly when he heard this, did not nod or shake his head, but raised his palm and patted it lightly on the top of Meng Ziyi's head.
"Don't worry about me, take care of your body."
When Meng Ziyi heard this, she pursed her lips slightly, her brows furrowed slightly, revealing a little bit of her little daughter's mentality.
"Brother Xuanchen, I'm not a child anymore, don't keep filming others, like teasing a kitten."
Looking at Meng Ziyi in such a posture, Ye Xuanchen laughed out loud.
"Okay, okay, if I don't shoot in the future, won't I be able to do it?"
Seeing that Meng Ziyi actually nodded with satisfaction, Ye Xuanchen was very helpless, but at this moment, his body and mind were completely relaxed.
The two walked all the way forward, and Ye Xuanchen didn't care which direction he was going, but the tranquility he got from getting along with Meng Ziyi at this time made him feel a little reluctant and greedy.
The two of them walked forward with a smile all the way, but I don't know when the sun completely set the mountain, the moon hung high in the treetops, and the night was as cold as water, Ye Xuanchen was shocked that the time seemed to be a little late.
Ye Xuanchen stopped and looked around, but he was a little unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, did they go there unconsciously?
Ye Xuanchen turned his head to look at Meng Ziyi beside him, and found that her clothes looked a little thin in this night, so he was a little worried about her body, and the palace maid saw that the two of them finally stopped, and hurriedly stepped forward to put on a cloak for Meng Ziyi, and then tied the lace on her chest with her own hands.
"It's getting late, let's go back."
Meng Ziyi nodded obediently, and just as the two of them turned around and were about to leave, they suddenly heard a terrible scream! (To be continued.) )
