Chapter 33: The Ghost Guard

The little maidservant Ziyan waited for a few days before Ding Ruoyu learned from her that she was in the White Sand Hall of the Witch Sect Headquarters.

She didn't know what method Lihong had used to get the two of them to return to Agni City from South Vietnam in just two days. I haven't seen him again these days, and I seem to have a lot to do.

Not long after, Zi Yan told her that there would be no task on the Dead Soldier's Camp for the time being, and the weak water allowed her to recuperate here. Ding Ruoyu lay down for a few days, feeling that she was going to cover her with mold, and when Ziyan changed the dressing for her, she kept begging her to take her out to see.

"The adults said that the girl should not go out at will, if she is bored, there are several scriptures on the shelf, you can copy and practice calligraphy...... Zi Yan repeated it to her.

"His own handwriting is extremely ugly, and he is embarrassed to ask me to practice calligraphy?" Ding Ruoyu laughed rarely, leaning forward and back, as if he had heard some nonsense.

Ziyan looked at her aggrievedly.

Ding Ruoyu looked to the side, there was a piano hanging on the wall, and she asked, "Can that thing be played?" ”

"The adults said that the objects in the house can be taken by the girls at will." Ziyan is looking at it again.

Ding Ruoyu stroked the piano with one hand, and the tune was like a magic sound, but she found fun and studied it every day.

In the mansion of the four princes, there is a courtyard called Zhuxuezhai. Xue Tong was sent to the Obsidian Hall to continue his hard work, leaving only Sui Han and his men to live here.

Chen Lan was brought back together, and soon woke up, and her body was still very weak. She withstood the careful blow of the Phantom of Miro, and although her ribs were not broken, her internal organs were seriously damaged, and she could only lie down quietly to recuperate for a long time, and she could not even get out of bed.

On the side of the Dead Soldiers' Camp, Weak Water sent someone to send a large number of supplements such as ginseng and deer antler velvet to help her recover as soon as possible. It's a pity that Chen Lan has been like a poor person in the past ten years, and she can't afford to make a big supplement for a while, and after drinking a bowl of ginseng soup, she began to have a long nosebleed.

It was Qiu Ping who delivered the things, she half-leaned on the bed rail, worriedly asking about the current situation in the camp and Ding Ruoyu's whereabouts.

"Miss Qiao'er broke her leg and recuperated at the main altar of the witch sect." Qiu Ping replied briefly, and she didn't know the specific situation very well.

Chen Lan nodded, and she also had a bottom in her heart. Since she was a child, she has survived in the deceit of the deep palace, never treats people with her heart, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false words. This encounter with a ridiculously strong enemy made her really care about the friends around her.

Li Qiao'er can't die so quickly, at least...... Can't die before she becomes a thing.

"If she is still alive by then, maybe you can take her back to the palace with her, make her a close female guard, and live a good life of glory and wealth." She suddenly had such an idea that surprised her.

Not long after Qiu Ping left, a man in white came in to give her medicine. She only glanced at the green eyes that were a little oozing, and then hurriedly took the medicine and lay back, not even daring to ask his name.

When she was very young, an elder of the clan told her that those people in white clothes and green eyes in the snowy country were called the Heavenly Clan, and they would not grow old when they reached a certain age, just like immortals who had cultivated the Dao. On the other hand, the people with colorful hair and eyes in the Yan Kingdom are like demons and monsters, and there is another demon race with the same endless lifespan.

She couldn't sneak into the heavily fortified Northern Snow Region, so she tried her best to come to the equally mysterious Yan Country, just to explore their relationship with the celestials and demons, and find some gods or secret methods related to immortality.

The Witch Emperor, who possessed strange spells and claimed to be able to summon wind and rain, was the closest to them of the people she knew so far.

Or, the dark shadow encountered in South Vietnam is also one of them.

From the moment she saw them, she was dominated by that aura of terror, unable to resist, or even unable to move.

But the Snowpiercer was different. There were no signs of danger on him, just like an ordinary person. If he is not very human, he is afraid that he is a monster one level higher than the Witch Emperor.

Such a person...... Chen Lan was stunned, and she suddenly remembered another special existence in Yan Country. Isn't their great teacher also such a person?

"The Great Master is being suppressed by the Witch Emperor with forbidden magic and strange poisons, otherwise how could there be only four peak masters?" She said secretly, and suddenly felt a cold thought pass through her eyebrows.

She was taken aback, and based on the contents of the various scriptures she had read in the Forbidden Pavilion since she was a child, she understood what this breath meant.

"The primordial spirit is qi, and the form is ...... with gas" Chen Lan silently recited the mantra that he had already memorized, and his fingers also moved, and a touch of clear qi seemed to float out of his palm.

Shocked, the corners of her mouth curled slightly. I searched for the mental power introductory method to no avail, but I didn't expect that after being seriously injured, it would be a mistake.

Sui Han, who was standing on the ridge, smiled with satisfaction, and turned back to his room.

In the city of fire, under the personal command and supervision of the Witch Emperor, a tall tower was erected in less than ten days. In front of the tower, there are cattle and sheep tributes offered by the nobles of the Yan Kingdom, and from time to time there are people who pass by kneeling and praying, donating money and silk in order to build it as soon as possible.

In the Accord of the teahouse not far away, Weak Water held his arms, looked at the endless stream of people who came to worship at the window, and said coldly: "The people are ignorant, what is there to worship in this kind of measure of working the people and hurting money." ”

"This tower is called Julei Tower," behind her, next to the square table, Mu Huo scalded two cups of tea, got up and handed one of them to her, "The Witch Emperor's mana is special, it is a thunder and lightning system of wind system mutation, and when this tower is completed, his strength will not be the same." ”

"I don't care if I leave Hong, let him improve?" Weak Water put down the teacup heavily, and most of the tea splashed on the table.

Mu Huo smiled bitterly: "What does he do?" I know you're still complaining about him...... Five years ago, he was not capable of saving you from the Witch Emperor, and now, he is not capable of resisting. ”

The anger on the weak water face gradually subsided, she sat cross-legged on the futon, wiped the water stains on the table, and recalled the experience of being taken away by the Witch Emperor, her eyes were full of desolation.

"He said there would be no next time for that kind of thing, and I believed him. Su weaving, Ziyan, and Qiao'er...... I remember how many girls he has protected over the years. ”

"So I'm willing to stay with the Witch Emperor to find out the news, and I'm willing to give him this life." Weak water raised his eyes and smiled with relief.

Mu Huo reached out and put it on her shoulder.

"Senior brother and sister, arrived so early?" The small wooden door of the Accord was opened, and on the door frame leaned against a dirty man in a moon-white robe.

"Brother Wind." The two stood up and welcomed him in.

"Senior Brother Houtu asked us to come over together and say that there is something important to discuss, but he himself was the last one." The wind patted the dirt on his shoulder, and the big lama sat down at the square table and poured a cup of tea.

Weak Water covered his nose in disgust, fanned the large dust kicked up by him, glared at him, and said, "Did you just come down from the construction site?" ”

"Hey, confidential." Hurricane didn't care, smiled and took the tea ceremony again, "This tea is really good, but it's a pity that I can't drink it." ”

"You fake merry turtle naturally can't drink it!" Weak water spoke sharply, and he didn't give face at all to pick up this senior brother.

The sound of clearing their throats sounded at the door, and the thick earth finally came, and the three of them also restrained their joking demeanor and respectfully saluted and gave up their seats.

"Jiang Chenghua, the missing proton, is in my house." The opening of the thick earth was amazing, and the other three people in the Accord were all stunned.

After a while, Weak Water exhaled and smiled: "It's just a proton prince, just kill it." How many brothers and sisters are we, except for Senior Brother Feng, who is not from a famous family? There's no need to be so nervous. ”

"After I caught him, I tortured him, but I didn't expect that there was a group of strange-skinned ghost guards under his hands." Houtu glanced at her coldly, and the weak water was immediately silenced, not daring to interject at will.

"Those ghosts scattered and fled after missing the blow, and there was a shortage of soldiers and major generals in the palace that day, so they couldn't catch them, so they hid them." Houtu Dao took out a long box, which contained the ghost pattern he had instructed the painter to draw according to the description, "I called you here, so that you can take your men to watch around, and once you find them, you will immediately do it, and it is best to catch them alive." ”

The other three looked at each other after looking at the picture, and after a moment of silence, the wind said, "Senior Brother Houtu, has this matter been reported to the Witch Emperor?" ”

"Catch the evidence first." Houtu got up and walked to the door before turning back, "This matter is kept secret for the time being, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”

The three protectors of Water, Fire and Wind plan to divide their troops into three ways and send their most trusted subordinates to secretly search the whole city.

But as soon as they separated, the wind went to the Red Cloud Palace, and the weak water also rushed to the Demon Suppression Tower, and secretly reported the matter to the Witch Emperor and the National Teacher respectively.

"Miss, you're going to save your husband by yourself." Li Hong copied the scriptures and classics, and after the weak water left, he glanced at the secret door on the wall.

Sleepless pushed the door out, snatched his pen from his hand, gritted his teeth and threatened: "Nangong will go with me." ”

"Okay, okay, Nangong, did you hear that?" Li Hong caught the pen she threw over, looked at the string of ink stains on the paper, and sighed helplessly.

Sleepless sat across from him, and suddenly leaned in and whispered, "Are those medicine people your troublemakers?" ”

"It's not. However, the four Dharma protectors are too idle, so it's better to find something for them to do. Li Hong said, and the pen tapped on her eyebrows.

Sleepless thoughtfully, pulled Nangong Yi and retreated. Nangong looked at the ink marks on her forehead, suppressed the corners of her mouth that rose wildly, and made a strange "cooing" sound in her throat, if she hadn't been wearing a mask, she would have been wearing it a long time ago.

Although the four protectors scattered everywhere to search for the traces of the medicine man, the guard on Jiang Chenghua will not be relaxed. The two of them disguised themselves and sneaked into the Earth Protector's Mansion, and searched for most of the day to no avail.

Next to the stall, Nangong Yi watched the sleepless chop finish pulling two large bowls of rice, and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Guo's proton is only afraid that he is not in the Houtu Mansion." ”

Sleepless drank another big bowl of soup, put down the bowl and asked him, "What do you mean?" ”

"The Earth Protector Mansion is located in a downtown area, and according to the words of the Water Protector, those medicine people rushed to the rescue in broad daylight when they were torturing the protons, and then scattered and fled, and in the meantime, they were not seen by passers-by?" Nangong looked at her and asked the boss to make two steamed buns.

"That makes sense, so where are you talking about?" Sleepless saw that there was a brain-loving person in front of him, so he took the initiative to give up thinking.
