Chapter 187: Shadow Xuanshui
Odd!
I've never seen this little puppy before, how can it show such closeness to itself?
Yan Luojun naturally saw the intimacy of the dog cub in his arms to Lu Jiu, and simply put it down.
"Whew!"
The dog cub barked milkily, showing a happy appearance, and ran towards Lu Jiu with four small short legs.
ran to Lu Jiu's feet, rubbed Lu Jiu's trouser leg affectionately, and looked like he would not let go.
Lu Jiu raised his eyebrows, bent down and rubbed the dog's head.
The handful of ice-blue hair on the top of its head was soft and smooth, and it felt delicate, but Lu Jiu could feel the slightest fluctuation of energy from it.
How can an ordinary puppy have energy fluctuations?
This couldn't help but raise a question in Lu Jiu's heart.
The puppy also showed a very happy look.
"Did you name it?"
Lu Jiu withdrew his hand and looked up at Yan Luojun.
Yan Luojun shook his head when he heard this.
She hadn't seen a dog of this breed yet, and she thought it was more likely to be a monster.
However, she looked through various sources, but did not see the details of the species.
Naturally, there was no time to name it.
Lu Jiu nodded when he heard this, looked at the dog cub at his feet, and an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Maybe the name will do?
However, if you want to choose a name, you still need to get Yan Luojun's consent, after all, she brought this dog cub back.
Thinking of this, Lu Jiu looked at Yan Luojun and said, "How about I name it?" ”
Yan Luojun shrugged his shoulders when he heard this: "Whatever." ”
I have raised this dog cub for so long, but when I saw Lu Jiu, I turned my face and didn't recognize anyone.
This made Yan Luojun feel like he had raised a white-eyed wolf.
As for the name or something, let him name it if Lu Jiu likes it!
After getting Yan Luojun's consent, Lu Jiu touched its head: "There is a pinch of blue dull hair on its head, and it looks poor and sour." ”
"Why don't you just call it ......"
"Poor!"
Lu Jiu raised his head, resisted the urge to laugh, and looked at Yan Luojun with a serious face.
"How's the name?"
Yan Luojun frowned when he heard this.
Johanha?
When she heard the name, her first reaction was to think something strange.
According to the ancient customs of the Xuanwu Kingdom, the word Qiong has a beautiful meaning.
But why did Lu Jiu add a ha in the back?
Shaking his head in his heart, Yan Luojun felt that his way of thinking could not be synchronized with Lu Jiu's sand sculpture.
Anyway, it's a name for the dog, why do you care so much about him?
"Whatever you want."
Yan Luojun said indifferently.
Lu Jiu nodded when he heard this, buried his head and touched the dog's head, for fear that he would not be able to hold back his face and laugh.
"From now on, you will be called poor!"
"Whoa!"
I don't know the so-called poor ha screamed happily a few times, and wagged his tail with a look of criticism.
Yan Luojun didn't know what the meaning of Lu Jiu's name was, and as a puppy, he naturally didn't know.
"That's right." Lu Jiu suddenly remembered something, took out the Hanyuan Orb in his pocket, and handed it to Yan Luojun: "Give it back to you." ”
Yan Luojun took the bead and looked at him a little strangely.
To be honest, she didn't understand what Lu Jiu was doing with the Hanyuan Orb.
……
As time passed, the Shadow Assassin Qi's reputation grew in the kingdom of Ster.
And Ah Qi also successfully killed his last mission target and returned to Xuanwu Kingdom.
From this moment on, the first Shadow Assassin of the Shadow Assassin Organization was born.
Everyone knows that in the Shadow Assassin Organization, there is a peerless Tianjiao.
The chief shadow assassin of the Xuanwu Kingdom, codename - Qi!
On the throne in the shadows, a middle-aged man with white hair sits on it.
Qingzhu knelt in front of him with a cold face.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
"It's almost time......"
……
In the evening, night covered the Shadow Assassin Order's residence, and a scarlet crescent moon rose.
In the faint darkness of the night, the light is faint.
Ah Qi, who was slowly advancing, suddenly stopped.
"What's the matter with me?"
Ah Qi's face was calm, and he said without looking back.
With his powerful senses, he had already noticed that he was following behind him.
If it weren't for an acquaintance, he would have already made a move.
His words fell, and a white figure slowly stepped out of the shadows behind him.
"I need your help......"
Qingzhu looked at the back of the purple-clothed young man and said slowly.
Ah Qi was silent when he heard this.
After a few moments, he spoke, "I had nothing to do with you before. ”
There was a flatness in his tone.
Even after nearly three years of getting along, Ah Qi still doesn't have any trust in this woman.
Even, apart from her name, Ah Qi didn't know any information about her.
Coupled with the fact that this woman is suspected of being sent by the leader to spy on her, Ah Qi has always been extremely vigilant about her in her heart.
But the past three years have not been without the slightest emotion.
For Ah Qi, it is just from strange to familiar.
Therefore, when Qingzhu said that he needed his own help, Ah Qi's first reaction was to refuse.
He didn't even ask her what she was going to help with.
When Qingzhu heard this, it seemed that he had expected his reaction.
"If you want to get your memories back, then this is a must."
Qingzhu said in a calm tone.
When Ah Qi heard this, a trace of horror flashed in his eyes, and he hid it well.
He was silent.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Qingzhu said, "Do you know why you don't have memories of the past?" ”
Ah Qi frowned slightly when he heard this: "Why? ”
When Qingzhu threw out this sentence, it didn't matter if he believed it or not.
Ah Qi desperately wants to retrieve his memories to confirm whether what Lu Jiu said is true or false.
Qingzhu smiled when he saw this.
Ah Qi's performance seems to have been expected by her for a long time.
"The leader has set up a shadow cage in your mind, completely blocking your past memories so that you can be used by him."
Qingzhu said lightly.
Ah Qi was silent for a moment, frowned slightly, stared at her eyes, and said in a cold tone: "Why should I believe what you say? ”
Although he really wanted to get back his memory, Ah Qi also knew that the green bamboo in front of him did not have the capital to let him trust at all.
Hearing this, Qingzhu didn't answer his words directly, but asked rhetorically, "Do you want to retrieve your past memories?" ”
Ah Qi's eyes flickered for a moment when he heard this.
Qingzhu smiled slightly when he saw this.
"There are only two ways to unlock the shadow cage in your mind."
"Either kill the leader, or you'll only be able to get the Shadow Water."
Qingzhu clasped his hands on his chest, and his face was indifferent.
"It's obviously impossible for you to kill the leader."
"Drinking the Shadow Water will help you unlock the Shadow Cage, but it's hidden on the top floor of the Shadow Tower."
"I can help you get the Shadow Xuanshui, but the condition is that when you recover your memory and find that the leader is your enemy, I need you to help me and Lu Jiu kill him!"
"If you regain your memory and feel that the leader is not your enemy, then I will bear the consequences, and you are still the chief shadow assassin of the Xuanwu Kingdom."
"Whether I deserve your trust or not, this attempt will not hurt you."
Qingzhu said slowly.
The Shadow Tower is different from the Shadow Tower, which is located in the depths of the Shadow Assassin Order, while the Shadow Tower is located on the periphery of the Shadow Assassin Order.
One neighborhood is full of elites, and the other neighborhood is full of cannon fodder, which is not the same at all.
Ah Qi's face was still cold, but his dark eyes flickered slightly: "Why do you want to help me?" ”
has been a long-term companion for three years, and after such a long time of getting along, Ah Qi still hasn't seen the true purpose of the person in front of him.
Frame?
It was Qingzhu who went to get the Shadow Xuangong, not Ah Qi himself.
Even if Qingzhu gave Ah Qi and framed Ah Qi after getting the Shadow Xuanshui, the initiative was in Ah Qi's hands.
Think about it, would the Shadow Assassin Order trust a person who smashes into the Shadow Tower to snatch something important, or will they trust their chief Shadow Assassin?
The answer is obvious, Ah Qi feels that Qingzhu can't do such a stupid thing.
Is Shadow Water true or false?
If Shadow Xuanshui is real, then Ah Qi will recover his memory, and naturally he will know who is friend or foe.
If the Shadow Xuanshui is fake, then even if he drinks a bottle of poison, Qingzhu himself will have to die.
However, this kind of extreme one-for-one gameplay, Ah Qi feels that Qingzhu is unlikely to do it.
Putting aside these two possibilities, Ah Qi felt that the only possibility for Qingzhu in front of him to help him get the Shadow Xuanshui was to win himself over!
Maybe she, like Lu Jiu, knows her past, so she feels confident that she will help them after recovering her memory.
And Qingzhu's answer was not what he expected.
"I know your past, so we have a common enemy."
"But I also know that it's hard to believe me alone, so it's never too late to wait until you regain your memory before making a decision."
Qingzhu said in a serious tone.
Ah Qi was silent for a moment when he heard this.
Trying to recover his memories was a risky thing to do.
originally wanted to wait for Lu Jiu to fight the leader, and use his combat power as a bargaining chip to let the leader tell the truth.
But now Lu Jiu has not moved, and he can't contact him because of Qingzhu.
Ah Qi's heart was already faintly anxious.
When the cage in his mind was loosened, he was different from the emotionless cold state he had before.
He can clearly feel that he has seven emotions and six desires that belong to people.
They are surprised, they are angry, they feel pity, and they feel disgusted by things or things they don't like.
The resurgence of emotions made him begin to dislike this cold assassin life.
However, although Lu Jiu's words are very convincing, the gap in his memory can be filled perfectly.
He himself also had a vague sense of intimacy with Lu Jiu, coupled with the very deliberate actions of the shadow cage in his mind when they met before, which made him feel that Lu Jiu's statement was more credible.
However, what Lu Jiu said was not what he really knew after all, and Ah Qi was more inclined to find the answer by himself.
He really wanted to retrieve his past memories, to distinguish the truth from what Lu Jiu said, and to find his future direction.
At this time, Qingzhu told him that it could help him get back his memories.
And the price is to choose whether to help her or not according to his own will after he retrieves his memory.
With this in mind, he made a decision in the face of Aotake's proposal.
With a slight exhalation in his heart, Ah Qi looked at her and said in a calm tone, "I agreed." ”
