Chapter 499: Demon Barbarian Priestess: Smoke and Red Rain
After Ye Qingmian briefly exchanged a few polite words with Yan Hongyu, he began to ask about her being attacked. But almost as expected, what she said was also very simple and vague. Who attacked her, she said she didn't know. Because of what attacked her, she couldn't tell.
Ye Qingmian seems to have never encountered this kind of thing, that is, everyone around him has unified their position and is hiding something from themselves. It's not angry, but it's uncomfortable.
"You said you might have guessed the cause of Shanga's death, so I need to go to the real place and you will do a little test here. You left early, and I didn't have time to ask you afterwards. Ye Qingmian said calmly.
"I probably took it for granted. Yan Hongyu said very regretfully.
Ye Qingmian didn't directly refute Yan Hongyu, but said slowly, "It's a pity that I've been running around for your business for the past two days." ”
"For my business?"
"In the past two days, I have been to the City of Two Blades for your business, and I know that you don't have any good news here, so it is better to sleep well. ”
"You're kidding. Without my inner guidance, it would be difficult to enter the two-bladed city as the sky. Yan Hongyu was quite confident, and said with a smile, not taking Ye Qingmian's words seriously.
"The blood is full of bluestone crows and branches, and the empty city is the only one who is stupid. The yellow sand iron armor is three thousand miles, and the Haoyue spear is a million corpses. I saw the poem carved by Ji Konglian on the wall of the war city, and it was very good. Ye Qingmian said blandly.
Yan Hongyu's eyes moved slightly, and after being silent for two seconds, he regained his smile again, "This poem is very famous, everyone in the Temple of Reincarnation knows it, and I'm afraid the mental hospital is also very familiar with it." ”
Ye Qingmian knows that the subtext of Yan Hongyu is that it is impossible for you to see it with your own eyes, but you have many channels to hear about this poem.
Ye Qingmian sighed and said, "The Guardian City is like an inviolable fortress, even if the people inside can't move around at will. The carriers of the reincarnation overseers are uniformly placed in the Hall of Heroic Souls on the west side. ”
Yan Hongyu didn't answer, but waited for Ye Qingmian to continue, because what he just said, although it was a very secret thing to outsiders, it was not difficult to know this given his relationship with Liji.
"So we won't talk about whether you verified the cause of Skull's death and whether you hid anything from me. We'll move forward the time before you have tested it. At that time, you didn't know what the results of the test were, but you knew that I wouldn't be able to help you steal the carrier from the Guardian City. ”
"Then your so-called deal is just a cover for me to complete the test, the Guardian City is a strong fortress that exists to defend against the White Eagle, and it is difficult for even a reincarnation ability to infiltrate. And looking at the entire dream world, there is only one person who can help you achieve your goal, and she is Huaori. So your target from beginning to end is not me, but her. ”
"You've been lurking in the First War Zone for months and you've never had an incident, and no one is even aware of your existence except for the core members of the Immortal Pavilion. But as it happens, after I helped you with that test and left, you were attacked one after another. And Hanori's perfunctory answer, and the attitude of the Gray Palace's avoidance, I can almost conclude that the chaos of the past two days must have something to do with that incident. ”
Yan Hongyu didn't admit it, but glanced at Ye Qingmian a little helplessly, "It's really a good thing to be thoughtful, but too much brain supplementation will only make you go deep into the misunderstanding." If your closest women and best friends are both going against you, shouldn't you think about whether it's possible that your understanding is biased?"
Although Murong didn't forget to say that Yan Hongyu was a little not worth mentioning, Yan Hongyu also served as an overseer after all, and he couldn't even see the slightest flaw in his expression, which made Ye Qingmian even have some self-doubt.
Yan Hongyu continued, "Besides, the City of Guardians has indeed done a good job in terms of safety, but there is a saying in your country that good swimmers drown, and good riders fall. Although the guardian will not be negligent, but when the moon is full, it will be lost, and when the water is full, it will overflow, and if the defense is too tight, there will be fatal loopholes, since I dared to make an agreement with you before, I must be sure. It's just a pity that my guess was wrong. ”
Ye Qingmian took a deep breath, he was already a little shaken by Yan Hongyu's words now, could it be that his preconceived guess was really wrong? But regardless of whether Yan Hongyu had insight into the reason for Sleep Skull's suicide, this matter could be put aside for a while, maybe he still needed time to sort it out, at least for the moment, he couldn't continue to entangle with Yan Hongyu on this issue.
"Then let's change the subject, let's say your guess is true, you told me the reason, and I just happened to help you escape from the Guardian City, so after this, how do you plan to live in the real land? Without the protection of the Guardian City, and at the same time, you have to face the pursuit of the Reincarnation Temple, and Bai Qi's cleansing of the life in the dream world, will this life be better than now?"
Yan Hongyu blinked, didn't answer immediately, and after a while, he said leisurely, "You really love to worry about others." Since I want to abscond, then of course the route and accommodation are known to as few people as possible, and you ask so directly, should I tell you?"
Ye Qingmian didn't expect Yan Hongyu to have a frank conversation, so he started by himself, "I have a good place to go, maybe it's more suitable for you, I think you can think about it." ”
"Oh?" Yan Hongyu looked interested, "Listen up." ”
"City of War. ”
Yan Hongyu was stunned for a moment, but her face remained unchanged in general, making it impossible to see the fluctuations and thoughts in her heart, "It's the first time I've seen you persuade people to die so seriously." The City of War is Bai Qi's lair, and it is difficult for even those in control to get close, so if you let me go there, won't it make me kill myself?"
"How come?" Ye Qingmian smiled, "Your old colleague Murong doesn't forget that he lives very well there, and has even been in contact with Bai Qi and has had exchanges. ”
was unilaterally talked to, it should be regarded as an exchange, right? Yes, although Murong did not speak, he gave a look, so in a broad sense, he was right, well, that's it, Ye Qingmian thought to himself.
Hearing this, Yan Hongyu frowned, and began to feel a little uneasy, "Murong doesn't forget that it is still inconclusive whether he is dead or alive, how can I believe you if you have no evidence?"
Ye Qingmian spread his hands, "Only immaterial beings can leave the dream world, and only immaterial beings can come in from the real land. What evidence can I bring back? And I am alone, so how can I have a witness? I only have an empty mouth, and since you don't believe it, then I can't say more. But, really, maybe you'll have a good time there in the future. ”
After speaking, Ye Qingmian got up directly without hesitation and prepared to leave, but the voice of smoke and red rain came from behind, "Wait a minute!"
The corners of Ye Qingmian's mouth slightly outlined a triumphant smile, and then he regained his calm face and turned to look at Yan Hongyu, "Anything else?"
"What do you know?"
"Do you mean the City of War, or do you mean you?"
Hearing Ye Qingmian's words, Yan Hongyu no longer had the same casualness as before, but looked very dignified, and there was a coldness hidden under his calm expression, "It's okay, since you're here, let's sit for a while." ”
Seeing that Yan Hongyu finally loosened, Ye Qingmian also breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what the result was, he should be able to get an accurate answer, so at least today will not be in vain.
"You said that you are not optimistic about the Temple of Reincarnation, the mental hospital, or me, but you bet on it in many ways. On the surface, I want to seek a kind of safety in the chaos of war, but just like eating, you only taste one bite of everything on the table, which means that you may not have any of your favorite dishes, so I boldly guess that the dish you love to eat will not be on a certain clock tower, right?"
"Huh. Yan Hongyu sneered, "It's nonsense! People say you're smart, but I think your imagination is much stronger than your intelligence." With such a good talent, you should write a novel. ”
"If I'm wrong, it doesn't stop us from being allies. If I'm right, then we can work together deeply. And I'm sure you need my help. ”
Yan Hongyu rubbed his temples and seemed to have a headache, "Why do you believe in your feelings so much?"
"You've never been better, and the difficulties you're facing are not enough to explain the risk you're taking to survive in the wilderness in a real place. The reason why you are in a hurry to leave is probably because the progress of Qiyu is too fast. It's even a full year ahead of what she told you, right?"
Yan Hongyu smiled, "Do you have to prove that I betrayed the dream world today before you stop?" Bai Qi has an indiscriminate hatred for the people in the dream world, and there is no reason to talk about that kind of madman, in his world, it is black and white. ”
Ye Qingmian grabbed a handful of pine nuts from the wooden plate on the coffee table, scattered them into three piles, pointed to the first pile of pine nuts and said, "Everyone in the betrayed Two-Bladed City." They are white. ”
Then Ye Qingmian pointed to the second pile of pine nuts, "The countless carriers in the closed loop of time have been used and transformed, and have become the carrier foundation for the recovery of all beings in the Holy Grass Realm, and these people are black in Bai Qi's eyes. ”
In the end, Yan Hongyu and Ye Qingmian looked at the third pile at the same time, the former's right hand gradually clenched into a fist, and the latter smiled and continued, "But there is still a group in the real land, their bodies were not damaged in the Great War, and they did not occupy the carrier of the people of Two Blades City. He is also a victim of the curse of reincarnation eternal sleep caused by the thousand-year-old key. They have nothing to do with the Millennium Key, and they have no grudges with the Two Blades City, so in Bai Qi's position, gray exists. ”
As soon as Ye Qingmian said it, he seemed to be a little unable to stop, "Seven years of war from the past destroyed the Holy Grass Realm in the True Land, and then the Two Blades City was the last place of resistance, the casualties near it were relatively small, the damage was small, and the corpses were much more complete than other places. And those who are close to Two Blades City will inevitably have some connection to it in the past. I think that for people like Bai Qi who have been paranoid to the extreme, I'm afraid that only the identity of the gray group can allow you to complete the tasks assigned to you by the Reincarnation Temple alive in the last reincarnation, right?"
Yan Hongyu didn't give any response, just quietly looked at Ye Qingmian's eyes, and the room fell silent. And Ye Qingmian didn't speak again, he waited any longer. Wait for a denial that laughs at one's self-righteousness, or a dangerous showdown.
Time passed bit by bit, and after ten minutes of silence, Yan Hongyu slowly raised her eyelids and looked at Ye Qingmian, "I have never betrayed the Temple of Reincarnation. ”
Hearing this answer, Ye Qingmian was completely disappointed, but he listened to Yan Hongyu and then said, "Because I have never been loyal from beginning to end." Demon barbarian main priest, smoke and red rain, please advise. ”
