Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Strangeness of the Shark Clan
"Let's go!"
Ji Jinnian keenly noticed that the little girl in front of him seemed to be angry, and although she didn't understand why, she nodded very obediently.
Just as the two were about to turn around and leave, the voice of the merman king suddenly came.
"Please wait. ”
Baili Miaoyin turned around and looked at them with a slight mockery, "What? I want to return your future mermaid beads, but she gave it to me herself, you don't want to disregard your queen's wishes, do you?"
When the merman king heard the word "queen", his eyes were sad and sad, but he adjusted his mood in an instant, looked at the two, and said sincerely: "The distinguished guests are too worried, I want to thank the two distinguished guests, so I want to invite the two distinguished guests to my palace for a short rest, so that I can do a little bit of the friendship of the landlord, and it can also be regarded as a reparation for the offense of the previous two distinguished guests." ”
Baili Miaoyin was just about to refuse, but Yu Guang suddenly swept something, and swallowed the words of refusal to his lips, his face softened slightly, but he was still as indifferent as ever, "So I hope that the king can keep his promise, not invite us to some Hongmen banquet." ”
The merman king's face was also a little embarrassed, "Don't worry, it was indeed our recklessness before, and I ask for your forgiveness." ”
Baili Miaoyin snorted coldly, "Aren't you going yet?"
"Yes, please, guest. ”
The shark people surrounded Baili Miaoyin and Ji Jinnian in the middle and guarded them.
Ji Jinnian looked at Baili Miaoyin in confusion, although he had not been with the little girl for a long time, he had probably figured out the little girl's temperament. The little girl is not like such a good talker, and it is already the limit to endure not doing anything with them before, how can she agree to the invitation of the merman king?
Baili Miaoyin received his gaze and winked at him. Ji Jinnian will understand and no longer ask.
"My name is Turuk Augustus Feletliga, and the two distinguished guests can directly call me Turuk, I don't know what the two distinguished guests call me, where do they come from?"
"Baili Miaoyin, he is Ji Jinnian, from Yunguo. ”
"I wonder why the two distinguished guests are coming to the Sea of Death?"
As soon as these words came out, Baili Miaoyin's face sank, and Churuk also felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly explained: "I don't mean anything, I just want to see if the two distinguished guests are in need, and I want to help the two distinguished guests." ”
"No need, it's better for us to do things ourselves," as if remembering something, Baili Miaoyin suddenly paused, and his voice changed, "However, maybe we really need Churuk's help later." ”
"If you have a need, just ask, and I will not shirk it. ”
"After that, I bothered Truuk. ”
Ji Jinnian watched Baili Miaoyin chatting patiently with Churuk on the side, wondering in his heart, he didn't understand what the little girl was doing, but he knew that the little girl must have some plans, so he kept silent and did not interject rashly.
I don't know how long later, a splendid palace appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"To welcome two distinguished guests to my palace, I will first ask the maid to take them to rest for a while, and in the evening I will give you two more banquets as a token of gratitude. ”
Baili Miaoyin happened to have something to say to Ji Jinnian, so he nodded directly in agreement, and before leaving, he glanced at the shark crowd again.
"I witnessed the birth of this little young master, and I asked Turuk to take good care of him. ”
"He's my child, it's natural. ”
Baili Miaoyin bowed slightly, didn't say anything more, and left with the maid with Ji Jinnian.
In a few moments, the maid led them to a side hall.
"This is Miss Baili's residence, and Ji Gongzi's residence is next door. ”
"Okay, we know, thank you for your hard work, let's go down!"
The maid didn't bother much, and turned away.
"Come in first!"
The two entered the house together, Baili Miaoyin closed the door, raised his hand to prepare to lay down the isolation formation, and remembered that the person opposite him was higher in cultivation than himself, so he motioned for him to come with his eyes. Ji Jinnian understood, and with a wave of his hand, he laid out an isolation formation. Baili Miaoyin felt uneasy, and released his spiritual consciousness again, so he was relieved.
Ji Jinnian sat upright on the stool, waiting for Baili Miaoyin's explanation.
Baili Miaoyin didn't sell it, smiled calmly, and said seriously: "I found black qi in the previous group of mermen, which is what you call demonic qi. ”
"What?" Even Ji Jinnian showed a look of surprise at this moment, and then his face sank, "What you said is true?"
"I'm absolutely not mistaken, and the demonic aura on that person's body is very deep, it should have been a long time, I just don't know why he didn't fall into a manic state like those demon beasts before?"
Ji Jinnian said in a deep voice: "Then the situation is even more dangerous. ”
"Huh?"
"The previous madness of those demon beasts was affected by the demonic energy, that is, it was not completely controlled, but the demonic energy magnified the negative emotions in their hearts. And the situation you are talking about means that you have been completely controlled by the demonic energy, that is, you have entered the demon. ”
Baili Miaoyin's eyes were slightly dark, and her face tightened, "If the merman we met before was the queen, how could she appear in that place for no reason, and she was still entangled with Qu Ru, not to mention that she was still about to give birth, could it have something to do with the merman who fell into the devil?"
Hearing this, Ji Jinnian pondered for a moment, "You have a point, you found a few mermaids with demonic energy?"
"Only one was found. ”
"If there is already demonic qi infiltrating in the merman clan, there is definitely more than one, and at the dinner party in a while, you will investigate carefully to see if there are any other demons who have entered the demon?"
"Good. ”
"If the demonic qi has penetrated into the merman clan, then the consequences are unimaginable. ”
Hearing this, Baili Miaoyin nodded cautiously, "However, there is one thing that I think is very strange. ”
"Huh, what did you find?"
"Don't you think it's strange that the Merman King didn't feel much sorrow or surprise at the news of his queen's death, and didn't seem to be as curious as his wife might have been when she appeared in that place for some reason?"
When Ji Jinnian heard this, he bowed his head slightly, echoing her words, "It's really a bit strange." ”
As soon as Baili Miaoyin wanted to say something, there was movement outside, and he glanced at Ji Jinnian, and then withdrew the enchantment outside.
After a while, there was a knock at the door.
"Come in. ”
It was the maid who had shown them the way before.
"Excuse me, this is the medicine that the king asked the little slave to send to Ji Gongzi to heal his injuries, and the little slave didn't find anyone in Ji Gongzi's room, so he came to bother him. ”
When Baili Miaoyin heard it, she was secretly annoyed, damn it, she actually forgot about this stubble, pulled an injured person, and discussed things here for a long time, she was really derelict in her duty.
"Thank you, put it down!" Ji Jinnian still looked alienated and cold.
The maid put down her things and turned away, closing the door again for them before leaving.
Ji Jinnian saw that the little girl's head was about to fall to the ground, and knew that she was probably blaming herself and guilty, so she rarely quipped: "Okay, don't hang your head there, can you come and help me apply some medicine?"
Baili Miaoyin suddenly raised his head, "Yes." ”
When it was time to actually start taking the medicine, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Ji Jinnian said casually just now, but he didn't want the little girl to feel guilty, but now his injuries are in the shoulder, back, waist and abdomen, how can he let a little girl come to give him medicine.
"Forget it, I'll do it myself!" Ji Jinnian broke the silence and spoke.
Baili Miaoyin disagreed at this time, "You take off your shirt, I'll help you, some injuries are in the back, it's inconvenient for you." ”
Ji Jinnian was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "Then it's tiring for a hundred miles." ”
"It doesn't matter. ”
In the process of Ji Jinnian's retirement, Baili Miaoyin has been secretly blaming herself: Eh, really, why didn't you let Wen Xian refine more healing pills with her in the first place, otherwise now if a pill goes down, there will be nothing, and maybe, the merman will not have to die. That's it, that's it, everything in the world has cause and effect, this is probably fate! Although there are a lot of good pills on Baili Miaoyin's body, they are all too good, and the medicinal power is too strong, which is not a good thing, but it is easy to destroy the foundation, which is also the reason why Baili Miaoyin has not been taken out.
After Ji Jinnian took off his shirt, he waited for a long time and found that the little girl behind him had not moved, turned his head, but found that the little girl had no idea where the little girl had gone, suppressed the smile in his throat, and deliberately coughed lightly a few times to call the little girl's spirit back.
Baili Miaoyin came back to his senses, only to find that Ji Jinnian was already waiting for him, the roots of his ears were slightly red, and he hurriedly began to clean the wound and apply the medicine powder.
"It may hurt a little, you bear with it. ”
When Ji Jinnian heard this, he wanted to smile again, and hooked the corners of his lips shallowly, "It's just a small injury, it's not in the way." ”
Baili Miaoyin glared at him lightly, and the flesh and blood at the wound were turned out, or was it a small injury?
After dealing with the shoulders and back, when he went to the waist and abdomen in front, Ji Jinnian originally wanted to say that he was coming, but who would have thought that the little girl would directly open her mouth and order: "Turn around." ”
In this way, since the little girl said it herself, he couldn't refute the little girl's face, and turned around obediently to facilitate the little girl's movements. As soon as I lowered my eyes, I saw the little girl's thick eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, casting a dark shadow on her delicate face, at this moment, the little girl was seriously treating her wounds, her face was serious, as if she was doing something life-and-death matters, but the two white jade-like little ears hidden under the hair were already crimson at this time, revealing that the owner was not as calm as the surface.
Ji Jinnian glanced at it, then looked away, but thought in his heart: It turns out that the little girl will also be shy! Seeing that she has always been so calm before, I thought that she was not alarmed, and nothing could break her mask? I didn't expect to be shy like this. What to do? Seems to want to laugh again.
"Alright. ”
Baili Miaoyin wrapped the strip of cloth and stood up, his eyes as calm as ever. Ji Jinnian glanced at the tips of her red ears again, and did not tear her down.
"Thank you, you can rest first, and I'll go with you at the dinner later. ”
Baili Miaoyin nodded in response.
