Chapter 142: Choose one of two
It wasn't until the depths of the upper reaches of the Lechuan River that Ning Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Although the previous attitude was very strong, but now on the boat, the condensation is only then that he realizes that the clothes behind him are already sweaty.
As for why the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor appeared in the underworld, Ning Yi had no time to take care of it. After thinking quickly before, Ning Yi at this time only felt that his brain was blank, and he sat on the boat, and there was no movement for a long time.
I don't know how long it has been like this, but Ning Yi finally heard a voice in his ears.
"Although your injury is not serious, it is not good after all if it is not healed." As the voice rang out, Ning Yi looked back and saw that King Jizo had appeared on her boat at some point.
However, even when facing the outstretched hand of the Jizo King, Ning Yi couldn't help but shrink and dodged. For the King of Jizo, at this moment, Ning Yi began to feel distrustful. After all, the Queen Mother asked her to come to the underworld to think about it, but she chose the Lechuan River, and it was the King of Jizo who took her away from the heavenly realm. If it weren't for the trust in King Jizo, how could he do this? In this way, Ning Yi obviously can't trust the King of Jizo.
Seeing Ning Yi dodge the past, King Jizo couldn't help but be stunned, obviously he didn't expect such a situation to occur. However, King Jizo's expression quickly returned to normal, looking at Ning Yi and smiling, and his outstretched hand never withdrew.
"I'm just helping you heal your injuries, as for how you got injured, I won't investigate, let alone tell the Queen Mother or the Jade Emperor." King Jizo spoke softly, but he was persuading Ning Yi.
"Are you sure you won't find out how I'm hurt?" However, Ning Yi is still skeptical about this.
King Jizo nodded, his eyes full of determination. In this way, Ning Yi's tense nerves relaxed slightly, but the body that had dodged before was not close to King Jizo.
King Jizo didn't care much about this, and took a step forward. Ning Yi didn't dodge this time, and let King Jizo's hand rest on her shoulder. A warm current poured into the meridians, and the pain was quickly disappeared like a miracle when it was hit on the back by a mountain rock.
The treatment didn't last long before it ended. As King Jizo's hand on Ning Yi's shoulder was removed, the warm current disappeared. However, Ning Yi's previous injuries were also completely gone, not to mention the pain that had always existed before, and they disappeared with it.
"Thank you!" Ning Yi turned to the Jizo King beside him, but his expression was a little apologetic: "Also, just now, I'm sorry." ”
"It's okay." King Jizo smiled, looking like he didn't care about what Ning Yi had dodged just now.
However, after this sentence, between the two, there was no more than a word. There was silence between them, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. Even, later, Ning Yi had already looked away, and it didn't fall on King Jizo anymore.
I don't know how long it has been like this, but the boat under the feet of the two of them has slowly drifted away from a stationary state towards the location of the Nai He Bridge. However, Ning Yi has been immersed in his own thoughts, and for a while, he didn't notice it.
When Xiaozhou arrived at the Nai He Bridge, when the Queen Mother on the Nai He Bridge called her, Ning Yi finally realized where her position was at this time.
For a moment, Ning Yi did not immediately look at the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor on the Nai He Bridge, but looked at the Jizo King beside him with an incredible gaze. The only person who can make this boat float is the Jizo King next to her, except for herself on top of the boat. With no control of the boat herself, the boat drifted to the Nai Ho Bridge, and it could only be the work of the Jizo King.
Because of the fact that King Jizo helped heal his injuries just now, Ning Yi already has some trust in King Jizo. However, what Ning Yi didn't expect was that King Jizo would break this trust so quickly.
Subconsciously, Ning Yi couldn't help but move to the side of the boat, not wanting to have too close a distance from the King of Jizo. If it weren't for the fact that he was on the boat at this time, and the water of the Lechuan River was all around, Ning Yi would have left the boat a long time ago.
"I'm sorry, but the Queen Mother asked me to bring you here." Being so alienated by Ning Yi, King Jizo couldn't help but smile bitterly, and looked at Ning Yi's gaze, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
With such a look and gaze, Ning Yi didn't see it because he had already turned his head. However, even if she saw it, judging from the fact that she was betrayed by the Jizo King just now, I'm afraid Ning Yi would no longer easily believe in the Jizo King.
Regarding King Jizo's apology, Ning Yi didn't seem to hear it, and his eyes had already looked at the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother on the Nai He Bridge. Even, beside the two of them, Ning Yi also saw a lot of acquaintances, such as the King of Hades, who was standing respectfully behind the Jade Emperor at this time. And after the king of Hades, the ten hall masters are also impressively listed.
Ning Yi's gaze swept over these people one by one, but his gaze stayed on the body of the Qi Hall Lord for an extra moment. Qi Dian still had no expression, and his eyes looked coldly at the boat where Ning Yi was now. With such a gaze, although Ning Yi was already used to it, he couldn't help but feel a little lost.
"It's good that the wound is healed." The Queen Mother's gaze swept over Ning Yi's body, and she couldn't help muttering. There was a strong sense of relief in his tone.
Even the Jade Emperor on the side, although his brows were still slightly furrowed, there was a sense of relief in his eyes. The two of them still care about Ningyi after all. But it is precisely this concern, in the eyes of Ning Yi, that he will only feel more sad.
"Ning Yi, I've thought about it, I didn't think that I would really let you be in the underworld for a thousand years, but after two or three years, I will let you return to the heavenly realm." Looking at Ning Yi, the Queen Mother said softly, "It's not impossible for you to force the underworld to stay, but at most a year, after a year, you must return to the heavenly realm!" ”
"After Niangniang is in the heavenly realm, how can she change her order? It is said that a thousand years is a thousand years, how can it be changed to two or three years at will, and there is too much difference between them! However, after hearing about the return to the Heavenly Realm, Ning Yi couldn't help frowning, instinctively rejecting the matter of returning to the Heavenly Realm.
Ning Yi's words of refusal were already disrespectful to the Queen Mother. Although Ning Yi himself didn't want to do this, but under resistance, the words he said naturally changed his taste.
"A change of day? What a day! Do you really want to stay in the underworld for a thousand years? On the side, the Jade Emperor's brows furrowed deeply, and his eyes were already flashing with annoyance. Although it was only the Queen Mother who was disrespectful just now, this already made the Jade Emperor feel unacceptable.
"Naturally, take it seriously!" As if she couldn't see the anger in the Jade Emperor's eyes at all, Ning Yi nodded firmly. Regarding the matter of staying in the underworld, Ning Yi is now very persistent.
The Jade Emperor's brows furrowed even deeper, and he looked like he would explode in anger at any moment. However, the Queen Mother on the side reached out and pulled down the Jade Emperor and stopped what the Jade Emperor wanted to say next.
"Ning Yi, it's not impossible for you to stay in the underworld. It's just that if it's only for a year or two, there are no other requirements. But if it is a thousand years, then you need to have a wedding with the king of Jizo on the next day, and in the future, you can do whatever you want to stay in the underworld. When the Queen Mother spoke again, what she said made everyone around her stunned.
Even the Jade Emperor, who was beside the Queen Mother, did not expect the Queen Mother to make such a decision, and looked at the Queen Mother with incredible eyes. Not to mention other people, many people gasped after hearing this.
As the person concerned, Ning Yi was even more shocked, and subconsciously looked at the Jizo King beside him. Who knows, the king of Jizo also looked surprised, and at this time he was looking in the direction where the queen mother was. In this way, Ning Yi's mood was a little better, at least the King of Jizo didn't know about it. In this way, the feeling of being betrayed is much lessened.
"Queen Mother, this matter needs to be thought twice, don't make such a hasty decision!" Before Ning Yi could refute, the King of Jizo on the side had already taken the lead and spoke.
Listening to the voice of King Jizo, Ning Yi couldn't help but nod his head and agreed with this. Even on the side, the Jade Emperor didn't know what to say to the Queen Mother, and his voice was very soft, but the Jade Emperor's expression had always looked very serious.
"This matter is settled!" However, the Queen Mother still insisted on her own opinion, and she didn't even think about it, so she spoke up again: "Ning Yi, you decide for yourself, whether to return to the heavenly realm after only one year in the underworld, or marry the king of the underworld and stay in the underworld forever." ”
After hearing the words of the Queen Mother, even the Jade Emperor couldn't help frowning, obviously what the Jade Emperor said to the Queen Mother before was that he did not agree with this matter. However, the Queen Mother did not listen to the words of the Jade Emperor and insisted on going her own way.
"If you have to marry someone in the underworld, then can Ning Yi choose one person by herself?" Seeing that the Queen Mother's decision cannot be changed, but Ning Yi, who is unwilling to choose both choices, has an open look. However, when discussing with the Queen Mother, Ning Yi's eyes were looking at the Qi Palace, which was not far away from the Queen Mother.
Even if Qi Dian has always had a cold attitude towards her, the only thing that Ning Yi can resist at this time is to choose people. Even if Ning Yi spoke, she herself had already guessed that the Queen Mother would definitely not agree.
"The choice yourself? Do you choose the Lord of the Seven Palaces? As for Ning Yi's inner thoughts, the Queen Mother had already guessed even if she didn't notice Ning Yi's eyes looking at Qi Dian.
As the Queen Mother said this, the people who were originally shocked by the fact that the Queen Mother was going to marry the King of Jizo were even more surprised than just now. After all, Ning Yi likes the matter of the Qi Palace, and in the underworld, the only people who know about it are the King of Hades and the Hidden Palace. As for the King of Jizo, he may also know. After all, Ning Yi has never said anything, and even if these people know, they still rely on their own guesses.
Everyone's eyes shifted from Ning Yi and King Jizo to Qi Dian on the side because of the words of the Queen Mother. However, there are still some people whose eyes still fall on the body of King Jizo, with a little sympathy.
"There is no possibility between you and the Lord of the Seven Palaces, even if you want to marry, you can only be the King of Jizo!" The Queen Mother reacted to the people around her as if she hadn't noticed. When he spoke again, his tone was full of majesty, with a meaning that could not be refuted.
"One year at a time! You can't go back within this year! The previous proposal was rejected, and Ning Yi didn't even hesitate, so she directly chose the answer that the Queen Mother wanted.
Looking at Ning Yi, the Queen Mother couldn't help but smile. But when she looked at King Jizo, the Queen Mother's eyes were a little apologetic. And the king of Jizo just nodded at the queen mother, and his face was not good.
The choice had been made, and Ning Yi didn't stay here for too long, so he controlled the boat and left here. King Jizo did not control the boat again this time, but left here together with the control of Ning Yi.
Even on the Nai He Bridge, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother watched Ning Yi's departure, but they didn't stop him, they just kept silent, and watched Ning Yi's figure disappear completely.
The Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor did not stay long in the underworld and left the place. In the underworld, the sense of oppression that has always been permeated has disappeared with the departure of the two. It's just that in the underworld, it exploded because of what happened before.
And all this, in the upper reaches of the Lechuan River, is completely unaware. After the boat drifted upstream, King Jizo left the boat and returned to his lotus seat.
"I'm sorry!" Looking at Ning Yi, King Jizo said apologetically, but he quickly left the place, not even waiting for Ning Yi's response.
Looking at the place where the figure of King Jizo disappeared, Ning Yi's expression was always a little stunned, and after a long time, he didn't mean to speak. Moreover, Ning Yi's pupils were not focused, and he probably didn't see the departure of King Jizo in his eyes.
At this moment, in Ning Yi's mind, he was still thinking about what had just happened. For Ning Yi, the choice of the year he made just now was just a last resort. But for the Heavenly Realm, even at this time, Ning Yi could be sure that even after a year, she didn't want to return to the Heavenly Realm.
It's just that Ning Yi doesn't know how she can resist the wishes of the Queen Mother, and if she doesn't marry the King of Jizo, she can not go back to the heavenly realm. (To be continued.) )
