When he entered the hall, Xiao Changqi saw the prepared painting case, on which the half-painted mountain and river map had been rolled out.

I walked over and looked at the picture I had drawn.

Concubine Xue, who came in later, picked up the ink ingot and slowly studied the ink, "The master of the concubine, Your Majesty knows." ”

"The Witch King." Xiao Changqi replied.

"The concubine is the closed disciple of the master, and she is also the only female disciple, and there are six senior brothers in front of her. The six senior brothers of the concubines have their own strengths. Among them, the second senior brother is good at studying strange skills. This artillery was developed by him. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Changqi was surprised.

"This artillery is very lethal and is a weapon for breaking cities. The concubine has asked the second senior brother to help His Majesty make twenty cannons, which will be sent to the capital in the near future. It is also one of the small birthday gifts given by the concubines to His Majesty. Concubine Xue said and raised her head and glanced at Xiao Changqi shyly.

Xiao Changqi caught her gaze and said with a low smile: "It is my luck to have my concubine to help. ”

"What a concubine should do." Concubine Xue picked up the paintbrush and dipped it in ink, and saluted Xiao Changqi with both hands.

Xiao Changqi took the brush, looked at the rich and polished ink, and said, "Ai Feiyan's ink is very good." ”

"Your Majesty is not disgusted, it is the honor of the concubine." Concubine Xue continued to study the ink slowly, her face, eyes, and eyebrows were full of affection for Xiao Changqi.

Xiao Changqi looked at her, and suddenly remembered the woman who stunned him at every turn, or raised her eyebrows with a cold face, and had no respect at all. I think that when she was in Prince Yu's mansion, she still respected him very much, why did he become the king of a country, but he always gave him face.

I really don't understand women's minds.

If only she could look like Concubine Xue...... Well, he still doesn't have that impossible dream!

Pick up the pen and start to continue drawing the unfinished mountains and rivers.

And after he started painting, Ji Xue raised his head, and a deeply hidden dark light flashed in his eyes...... What was Your Majesty thinking? Is it the woman?

……

Tianchi Annex——

Ye Qingyan sat on the stage in the courtyard, wearing a lake blue wide-sleeved lotus-patterned dress, and a fox fur cloak on her shoulders, wrapping herself tightly and warmly.

The white owl was dressed in a black bathrobe, which made him not only gloomy but also cold.

Ye Qingyan said in disgust: "Master, let's wear white." Dressed in white, it looks very pure. ”

Bai Xiao didn't care about her opinion on her clothes, and only said, "Say, what do you want to do for the teacher?" ”

Ye Qingyan flew from the stage to the roof.

The white owl followed her.

"There!" Ye Qingyan's slender and smooth fingers pointed to a dark night, which was the direction of the capital.

Bai Xiao looked confused, "What are you going to do for the teacher?" ”

"Save my husband." Ye Qingyan said very clearly.

"Your husband is not the emperor of the Yan Dynasty, is he dying? However, even if you are about to die, you will save it, don't you have a Yang Pill in your hand? The elixir that brings the dead back to life can also increase longevity. ”

"You're dying!" Ye Qingyan glared at him, "My husband is in good health." ”

“…… If you are in good health, what do you want to save for the teacher? The white owl was speechless.

Ye Qingyan said: "He was deceived." At the mouth of the heart, there is a red worm three inches long. When he is in high spirits, it will appear. ”

"What you said is too general, as a teacher, you can think of at least a hundred kinds of Gu, I don't know which one you are talking about."

"What? One hundred kinds of Gu! Ye Qingyan was frightened by the amount he said.

Bai Xiao replied: "As a teacher, you have to see it with your own eyes to determine what Gu it is." ”

"When you're sure, can you solve it?"

"Even if you are uncertain, you can solve it as a teacher."

"Really?"

The white owl raised an index finger.

Ye Qingyan looked at his thin white fingers, "What are you doing?" ”

White Owl: "...... You'll know when the time comes, but before I get rid of Gu for your husband, I'm going to go back to Ghost Maze Town first. ”

"Hellmaze? Do you know where it is? Ye Qingyan looked at the darkness around him, and suddenly remembered the darkness in the ghost town...... And that terrifying blood-eating toad.

"Isn't it going to be here right now?" Ye Qingyan moved closer to the white owl.

Bai Xiao glanced at her and replied, "As the teacher said, you can't enter the ghost town, don't be afraid." ”

"Whoever is afraid, I am ...... I want to protect Master. ”

"Hehe, that sounds like a lie."

“…… Believe it or not, but can you accompany your apprentice to the palace first and explain the Gu to your apprentice. Ye Qingyan looked at Bai Xiao with a smile and prayer in his eyes.

Bai Xiao looked into her eyes and said, "He doesn't look like a stupid person, he should know that he has fallen into the Gu, why don't he untie it himself?" Still keep that Gu? He has been with Xiao Changqi for a few days, so naturally he also knows some Xiao Changqi.

Ye Qingyan was silent......

"Generally, the Gu in the heart is mostly for control. Is it him who controls others, or is it someone else who controls him, you know? ”

"I ...... I don't know. ”

"It's better for you to ask clearly, don't do bad things with good intentions." Bai Xiao patted her on the head, "I will go to the Yan Dynasty Palace to find you in three days as a teacher, and you should know what to do by then." ”

"Master, if you want to talk, it counts." Ye Qingyan watched him jump into the darkness and hurriedly shouted.

The white owl did not answer her.

Ye Qingyan looked up at the dim starlight in the sky, and felt that the temperature around him was a little cold......

Could it be that the ghost town is really here?

Thinking of this, Ye Qingyan went to the stable, wanting to leave here.

However, when she arrived at the stable, she found that her fat and strong horse was gone! Only the rope that tied the horse, and the harness for riding the horse fell to the ground.

was stunned for a moment, then immediately rose from the soles of his feet, and a tingling palpitation on his scalp rose all the way......

I didn't stay anymore and left the Tianchi Courtyard!

She used her internal force all the way to fly down the mountain with light skills, and she never felt that her light skills were so good! It's as fast as the wind......

It took less than a quarter of an hour to reach the foot of the mountain.

When he looked up at the sky again, the stars in the sky shone brightly again.

Sure enough, she was in the ghost town just now. Although she can't really enter the ghost town, she can feel the existence of the ghost town.

And her horse, once again, unfortunately became the fodder of the ghost town.

"I'll never come here to soak in the hot springs again!" Ye Qingyan palpitated.

Without a horse, she had to walk back to the capital. Although the way back to the capital, she recognized. But in this dark sky, even if you can see, the road is also foggy. Not surprisingly, she got lost again.

The more you walk, the more rugged the path, there are small grass on the side of the road that has just grown not high, and more dead grass left over from last year.

Ye Qingyan looked around blankly, and further ahead was a freshly ploughed spring field, behind her was the path she had just walked over, and not far from the left hand side was a barren grass cemetery, and on the right hand side was a newly dug large soil pit.

Where has she gone?
