Chapter 13: Arrival
"When will that be?"
"I don't know, but it's definitely not a good time. Le Zhengjiao shook his head.
"What does that mean?"
"Nothing is good, can the time be a good time?"
Le Zhengjiao's words seemed to have a deep meaning, and Luo Qisheng did not ask any more.
The sky was getting more and more gloomy, and the sky without the sun was surrounded by thick and dirty clouds, and there were no gaps in the blackness, as if they could fall at any moment.
The raging and running north wind howled as much as it could, sweeping over the human body like a sharp blade, causing bursts of stinging pain.
Luo Qisheng, who was worried, muttered secretly: "If there is no city lord to protect me along the way, I am afraid that I will die here." ”
Although his voice was very small, Le Zhengjiao still listened: "When the divine power in your body awakens, why do you need to protect me." At that point, I'm afraid I'll be asking you for help again and again. ”
Luo Qisheng sighed a little helplessly, and said, "You person, why do you always say something that people don't understand?"
This time, Le Zhengjiao did not reply, but took him to the ground at great speed.
"It's cold! Is this a place for people? I think the legends are true. Before his feet touched the ground, Luo Qisheng couldn't help but spit out these words, although they were unintentional, they were not false.
It was the first time he had come to such a place since he could remember, and there was no grass growing all the way, the people closed their doors, and there were only a few pedestrians on the streets.
Cotton jackets, earmuffs, and masks are all the same, and only two eyes can enter people's sight, and there is no vitality outside at all.
The Netherworld people live in the bitter cold land of the extreme north all the year round, and the bright sunshine and gorgeous scenery are pure vanity, and the place where there is no grass makes people feel extremely depressed, and inexplicably give rise to a sense of irritability.
Le Zhengjiao led him step by step towards the Demon Palace, which was where their most honorable Demon Emperor lived. From a distance, there is a dead silence, which is not pleasing to the eyes of ordinary people.
The Netherworld Palace was entwined with layers of dead branches, and even the few large characters on the plaque took a long time to make out the sight.
Approaching the gate of the palace, the guards recognized Le Zhengjiao at a glance, and their excitement was overflowing, and they trotted towards him: "Lord Demon Venerable, you are back! ”
Le Zhengjiao waved his hand and said, "Don't bother, your emperor is right behind us, and he will follow soon." ”
The guards ran around telling each other that their Lord Demon had returned.
The long-lost excitement and joy returned with the return of Le Zhengjiao. Su Lingyi, who was in the distance, gradually wet his eyes, he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
After stepping through the palace gate, Luo Qisheng was dumbfounded again, he looked ahead in a daze, and only came up with the word "barren" after thinking for a long time.
I thought that the scenery in the Demon Palace would be slightly better, but he didn't expect that he was thinking too much about all this.
"You're finally willing to come back!"
A loud and crisp male voice came from not far away, followed by a man with a fair face and a long body.
Compared with Yan Jiazhuo, who looked the same age, the man was very weak, his bloodless face was very pale, and he couldn't stop coughing when he was in a hurry, as if he was sick and half-dead.
Even so, Luo Qisheng faintly felt that he was a little spotless, and his flowing clothes added a touch of elegance to him. This is clearly a humble gentleman, and he is extremely incompatible with the Demon Palace.
When he was only one step away from Le Zhengjiao, the man hurriedly gave a fist salute: "Subordinate Wei Youlian, please say hello to the Demon Venerable." ”
This surprised Luo Qisheng again, he never imagined that the sick man in front of him turned out to be Wei Youlian, the hall master of the Qinglong Hall.
Of the five hall masters of the Demon Palace, he met three of them in one day, and he had never met Li Yan, the hall master of the White Tiger Hall.
Although he had just entered the Demon Palace, he had also heard from his predecessors about the deeds of the five hall masters.
Even if it is not a master of immortal cultivation like Le Zhengjiao, it still needs the sect leader of the hundred schools of Xuanmen to have the ability to learn a thing or two with the hall masters, and it is difficult for the idle people to subdue them.
In the past, in order to dominate the world, the Demon Emperor Su Yanlin really put a lot of effort into cultivating capable people.
Even if the six great families joined forces to defeat Su Yanlin, his hall masters still tried their best to keep the clan and his heirs, which made today's Su Lingyi have the courage and confidence to make a comeback on behalf of his father.
The six great families were not worried about the resurgence of the enemy, but they could only imprison them by reinforcing the seal despite their best efforts, and with Le Zhengjiao's secret mediation, the disaster of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots was avoided.
In the great battle twenty years ago, the Demon Palace was united, and even if they died instantly, no one surrendered.
In Jin Qi's words, if it weren't for the fact that the five of them followed the wrong master, it would not be difficult to live forever.
Le Zhengjiao hurriedly held him up: "You are not in good health, why bother to come and pick me up in the cold, when I enter the door, it will be difficult to see me." ”
Luo Qisheng fell into doubts again, "Yao Ke is afraid of him, Huo Chaolan hates him, Yan Jiazhuo respects him, and Wei Youhuan is very close to him." Four hall masters, four attitudes, it's really strange. ”
What's even more strange is Wei Youhuan himself, how did he become the master of the hall with this physique?
Clear-eyed people can see that his relationship with Le Zhengjiao is not ordinary, but it was Su Yanlin who set the position of hall master for them back then, and it was the year after Le Zhengjiao was kicked out of the Demon Palace.
No matter how capable he is, he can't control his brother-in-law's mind.
Luo Qisheng is young and has never experienced it personally, how can he know all the old things from 20 years ago, maybe people have only been sick in recent years!
After a cough ended, Wei Youjuan said: "There is Lao Mozun who is concerned, and his subordinates are ......."
"What is it!" Le Zhengjiao frowned: "I told you a long time ago - between brothers, there is no need to see each other." ”
Wei Youhuan slowly raised his head, his expression was extremely sad, but his eyes were clear and bright: "My subordinates know that the demon treats me very well, but the courtesy cannot be wasted." Especially...... It's a person like me who eats idle meals and messes around, if he can't even keep the etiquette and humility, he will really become a wasted person. ”
"I really can't help you, you are the most unaccustomed to being self-indulgent in the past. Le Zhengjiao shook his head helplessly, and pushed Luo Qisheng over: "Qisheng, don't hurry up and salute your life-saving benefactor." ”
Wei Youhuan couldn't help laughing, looking him up and down: "Qisheng, you are Qisheng...... You're really back. ”
Luo Qisheng looked at the two of them with a blank expression: "Life-saving benefactor? Where is this?
Le Zhengjiao put on a serious appearance: "Huo Chaolan is not counted, except for me and Xiaochun, he is the only one who has a lot to do with you." At your current age, it's not too much to call him 'Daddy'. ”
"Isn't this called excessive, what is excessive?" can 'Dad' be called casually?"
Luo Qisheng was anxious, he lost the exam when he was young, and there were very few memories related to his biological father Luo Liang.
He couldn't even remember Luo Liang's appearance, but he still portrayed a tall, mighty and loving father figure in his heart, an image that was very different from Wei Youlian.
"Demon Venerable said with a smile, how dare I let Gongzi Zhou call me my father. Wei Youhuan waved his hand vigorously, and was also frightened by Le Zhengjiao.
"Zhou Gongzi, who is this? It has something to do with me, right?" At this time, Luo Qisheng's brain was about to explode, and he even regretted coming here a little, it was a nervous disorder!
When he leaves the Demon Palace, the extra relatives and friends are afraid that they will not be able to count in two slaps.
"It's you. Le Zhengjiao's very serious reply was heard by Luo Qisheng, only as if he was messing around: "When did my surname go to Zhou? ”
Le Zhengjiao shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, and then put on an extremely innocent appearance: "You ask me to answer, I answer you but I don't believe it." ”
Luo Qisheng couldn't laugh or cry: "Nonsense, can you believe it? I was really blinded by lard before, and I really thought that I had something to do with you and even your niece." Now that I think about it, it was all a lie. ”
Le Zhengjiao smiled and said: "Why should I lie to you? As long as you see all the people you should see, you will know that what I said is true." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Luo Qisheng still chose to stay, after all, Le Zhengjiao was the lord of a city and the Netherworld Demon Venerable, so he would definitely not take him as a junior.
seems to have spied out his intentions, Le Zhengjiao only felt that this young man was a little more innocent than before, although he didn't know whether the future was good or bad, but now the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
Afraid that Luo Qisheng would change his mind temporarily, Wei Youhuan gently held his hand: "It's cold outside, let's go in and talk about something, okay?"
At this time, Luo Qisheng was still surprised, what kind of person can live in such a harsh environment for more than 20 years?
Many years later, recalling everything today is still like a big dream.
In a trance, Luo Qisheng was taken by Le Zhengjiao to the place where he lived, exclusive to the Demon Venerable-Stop Moon Fast.
Although he lived here for a few days, he was cleaned every day, and everything was the same as when he was there.
His bow still hung from the wall as before, his beloved yaoqin was still lying quietly on the stand, and even the book on the table was on the last page he had flipped over.
Taking advantage of Le Zheng's stunned kung fu, Luo Qisheng quietly walked to his side: "Although your nephew is notorious, he treats you very well. If I hadn't kept you in mind all the time, I wouldn't have been so thoughtful about everything. ”
After staring at him for a long time, Le Zhengjiao asked, "Do you really have no impression of this place, and don't you have anything else to say to me?"
Luo Qisheng shook his head without thinking: "I really don't have any impression, it's my first time." If I had to say something else...... I can only say that your status in the Nether Demon Palace must be very high, not even worse than being the city lord. ”
In this regard, Le Zhengjiao just smiled, and then led him into the guest room: "I live opposite you, just call me if you have something." ”
