Chapter 10 The day is not yet twilight, but the man is old
In the dark, she didn't know how many dusks and nights she had experienced. In the blink of an eye, it was still pitch black in front of her, and she didn't even know if she had opened her eyes.
I did open my eyes, but I couldn't see anything.
"Awake?" the Demon King's voice sounded right next to him, nice but without any warmth.
She sat up with her eyes wide open, touching the quilt covered by her body, the quilt was very smooth and a little cool, presumably a fine brocade.
"You've been sleeping for a hundred years. A hundred years on earth, of course. The Demon King looked at Hua Jiao's expressionless face, "A year ago, you served as the rest of the Thunder Tribulation for the Yaohan Female Saint, and the Buddha asked me to take him to express my gratitude to you." ”
"Hmm. ”
"Also, you know what's going on in your body, right?"
She felt that she had scattered her soul and three spirits, her cultivation was lost, and her eyes were no longer visible.
"If you don't have cultivation, you can practice again, you are the third true demon in my demon world, and I will pick the best pill for you to cultivate. I will help you find the scattered souls, and before that, you can rest assured that you can cultivate your body in this True Demon Palace. She heard the demon king's voice standing up, "I'll go first, I've arranged for competent people to take care of you, and if you have something to do, just call them." ”
The footsteps of the demon king faded away, and a young maid stood by the bed, watching her sit motionless on the bed. In the hundred years that the maid has served her here, she has thought more than once about her reaction when she wakes up, and now that this time has burned out a pillar of incense, she sees that she does not cry, make trouble, and do not speak.
The maid heard that this true demon lord had been accepted by the Immortal Emperor as an apprentice by mistake, but after the Immortal Emperor learned her identity, he didn't think about the master-apprentice relationship, and threw her to the Yaohan Female Saint to block the thunder tribulation, which made her what she is now.
"Huajiao Demon Venerable, I am the maid who serves you, my name is Nian Cui. ”
"Hmm. ”
The incense burner on the ground was filled with white smoke, and all the things burning in it were great supplements. The maid looked at Hua Jiao's face, waiting for her to ask about the things that had happened in the past hundred years, such as the matter of the Immortal Emperor taking a mortal as a side room.
But she didn't ask anything, and for many days, except for eating, she didn't make any movement, like a dummy.
Finally one day, when Nian Cui was cleaning up the house, she was startled by Hua Jiao's sudden voice: "Help me go out for a walk." ”
The breeze is gentle, sending a hint of floral fragrance. "It's spring. Nian Cui said as she helped her go.
The spring breeze was warm, but it was still a little cold for her. She shrunk back, and when Nian Cui saw this, she hurriedly put on the clothes she brought. Her face was still young, but her hair had turned silvery-white, and her godless eyes made her look like she was old.
Nian Cui frowned, quickly took off the white cloak she had just put on, and ran into the house and picked up a red one for her to put on again.
Hua Jiao stood motionless under the flower tree, the wind blowing up her white hair to the ground, and the pink petals embedded in the hair. It's obviously a demon, but it's surrounded by a trace of immortal energy. She fumbled for a piece of petals, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, smiling faintly.
A smile flashed. When Nian Cui came over with her clothes, she saw more than a dozen people around Hua Jiao, and her face turned red.
Nian Cui trotted over, crossed her waist and frowned to drive them away: "Go, go, how can you be so rude to the True Demon Lord!"
Those little demons ran away one after another, Nian Cui has long been accustomed to such situations, and the higher the demon level, the more deadly the attraction of other little demons, because they have lived too long. Hua Jiao counts his previous life, to say the least, he is 20,000 years old.
"Master, I have brought my clothes, and I will put them on you. ”
"You don't need to call me master, just call me by my name. ”
Nian Cui was stunned, and his master actually responded to him for the first time, and he couldn't help but panic. I don't know if it's an illusion, but she feels that her master's spirit is better.
"This ...... How dare this...... I, I ......"
"You don't have to call me by name, just call me Miss. ”
"Yes......"
"Is there any good place in the demon world, take me to see it. At this point, she felt that something was inappropriate, so she changed her words and said, "Take me to relax." ”
"I know that there is a hill behind His Majesty's palace of the Demon King, which is beautiful, and I can always see many demons walking there in my spare time, but Miss wants to go there?"
"Okay, as long as the road is not far, my body can still hold up. ”
"If Miss is right, you are the reincarnation of the third true demon, a precious body, and you will get better soon. ”
The mountains are verdant, no different from the spring in the world, flowers are blooming everywhere, but the fragrance of the flowers in the demon world is mixed with a demonic aura, which will not be in the world.
Hua Jiao was a little tired from walking, so she sat down on the edge of the stone to rest. Nian Cui said: "Miss, wait for me, I'll go find some water for you to drink." ”
She nodded, listening to the footsteps of Nian Cui leaving, drowsy. Suddenly, she heard a sharp ridicule not far away: "Yo, isn't this Nian Cui, such a coincidence, I can meet you while walking here, it's really unlucky!"
Nian Cui deliberately suppressed her anger: "Feng Hong, if you want to make trouble for us another day, my master is resting now, if you disturb my master, you won't be able to eat and walk around!"
"Master, what master?" Feng Hong glanced over there, and suddenly laughed: "I haven't seen where you have gone for a hundred years, it turns out that I am serving the wasted again, first Concubine Zhuang, and then her." If you want to get ahead, you still have to learn from my sister, and making Your Majesty happy is the most important thing. Oh, though, I seem to have forgotten that even if you look like a god, you can't see anywhere. ”
Feng Hong and the other women around her laughed and trembled, Nian Cui wanted to have a seizure, but considering Hua Jiao, who was not far away, she had to blush: "Leave quickly after laughing." ”
"How can I just leave like this, I haven't laughed enough!" Feng Hong walked in front of Hua Jiao with a smile, and Nian Cui hurriedly chased after her, "What do you want to do as a slut?!I tell you, if you dare to do anything disrespectful to my master, I will ......"
Nian Cui hadn't finished speaking, but saw Feng Hong stop herself. She turned her head and saw Feng Hong staring at Hua Jiao, two suspicious reds gradually crept up on her face, and she immediately smiled proudly.
Feng Hong came back to her senses, knowing that she was out of shape, she hated herself so much that she was stupid, and scolded: "Even if it is the reincarnation of the third true demon, I heard that I was abandoned by the Immortal Emperor, and I was completely lost by the thunder robbery, and I scattered one soul and three breaks, my eyes are blind, my ears are deaf, and I can't even use my legs and feet." What are you doing here with such a wasted person, and you're tired of carrying her all the way?"
Rumors are always exaggerated. Hua Jiao estimated that if she didn't show up again, this woman with a broken mouth didn't plan to let them go back today, so she simply stood up, opened her eyes and looked at her face, "This lady, have I ever offended you? ”
As soon as she opened her eyes as she spoke, Feng Hong was frightened, and she only knew that she was staring blankly into her eyes.
Nian Cui glanced at Feng Hong, "What kind of lady, it's just a maid who has been favored by His Majesty once, and she really takes herself seriously." ”
Hua Jiao's expression froze, and she reached out and patted Feng Hong's shoulder, which was still in the right position. She leaned into her ear and whispered, "You are the woman of the Demon King, so you should have entered his chamber and knew where the place was." ”
