Chapter 312 Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
With Yu Wuhuan's roar, a figure sitting on the eaves of the palace opposite moved slightly.
He was covered by dark silk clothes, his figure was as long as a pine, with a half-silver mask, and a mocking smile passed by his cool lips.
"Now I know I have a night to go......"
This person looked coldly at this situation that was about to be decided, and couldn't help but feel bored for a while.
He locked his gaze on Peony's body, and a hint of compassion crossed his lips.
On his right side sat the figure of Ran Bingchen, and Ran Bingchen also looked at the peony at this moment, with infinite pity in his eyes.
After all, Ran Bingchen took out a piccolo, put it to his lips, and said softly and seriously: "You said that you have to protect her and protect everyone, right?" ”
"Yes."
The man nodded slowly, his gaze gradually softened, and in his gaze there seemed to be a long star falling, and in his eyes shone brightly.
"Li Sheng, I believe you."
Ran Bingchen said and played the flute lightly.
The flute was not very good, and even a little clumsy, but it was full of emotions and memories, and it fell to Peony's ears longer than the other.
Peony was stunned when she first heard the sound of the flute, and the anger in her eyes gradually dissipated, turning into a longing and pursuit.
She looked around, as if looking for where the flute was coming from, completely ignoring that there was an enemy in front of her, Yu Wuhuan.
And at the moment when she was trying her best to find it, Yu Wuhuan jumped up, coldly aimed the end of the sword at the heart of Peony and stabbed it!
The flute stopped abruptly, and Li Sheng's figure jumped down from the eaves, blocking in front of Peony with his body, and opened Wuhuan's sword with his hand!
Yu Wuhuan's sword fell to the ground with a "dang-" sound, refracting a dazzling light.
"Nighteer, what are you doing here?!"
Yu Wuhuan saw that there was a chance to get rid of the peony but Li Sheng came out to stop it, so he couldn't help but be annoyed, and asked angrily.
"Isn't Lord Yu Zhou too anxious? You forget, she has evil spirits in her body and can help you achieve your hegemony. ”
Li Sheng smiled faintly and said in two or two.
He just stood in place like that, watching Yu Wuhuan's face gradually change from gloomy to cold, and then gradually return to the gloom of the past.
He was silent, cold-eyed at all this.
But Yu Wuhuan looked up to the sky and smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's still the night envoy who thinks thoughtfully, but this time it's the king's negligence." ”
Li Sheng just smiled slightly, smiled but did not speak, neither arrogant nor impatient.
Yu Wuhuan turned his words, glanced at Li Sheng scrutinically, and asked half-jokingly and half-frowningly: "How can you be willing to condescend to this king if you are so capable and insightful overnight?" And if you can control evil spirits, why did you fall under my command? ”
Li Sheng clicked on Peony's acupoint, and then a subtle smile appeared on his lips, and he said slowly: "If Lord Yu Zhou suspects me, you don't need to use me." The so-called way of the soldier, there is no suspicion in employing people, and no suspicion is used. ”
Yu Wuhuan was speechless by his words, and after enduring it for a long time, he finally laughed and said hypocritically: "Of course this king trusts you." Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought you here, and I wouldn't have entrusted your life to you. At this point, the night envoy doesn't have to worry too much. ”
Li Sheng smiled and replied lightly: "Lord Yu doesn't have to care what his subordinates think. Instead of spending time on me, it is better to think about how to revive the subjects of the city on this full moon day, and how to get the Nine Heavens Snow Lotus that greatly increases the power of the city. ”
"These subjects are already old accounts from sixteen years ago, but this Nine Heavens Snow Lotus really should work harder."
Yu Wuhuan nodded, easily leaving the lives of thousands of subjects out of the equation.
Li Sheng's gaze slowly tightened at this time, and he said coldly: "As far as I know, if the Continent Lord Yu doesn't think about how to solve the Gu poison on these subjects, I'm afraid that this Nine Heavens Snow Lotus may not have the Continent Lord's share." ”
"Huh! These subjects who have been poisoned by Gu are a swarm of ants in the eyes of this king, how can they compete for the light of the sun and the moon! ”
Yu Wuhuan sneered and said nonchalantly.
Li Sheng just smiled faintly and said no more.
- Yu Wuhuan didn't know that once the ants were piled up to a certain height, they were enough to shake the light of the sun and moon in the high-rise building.
Li Sheng picked up the peony lightly and passed by Yu Wuhuan.
"Wait, where are you going to take this woman?"
Yu Wuhuan stopped him and asked coldly.
"Go and calm her down to reduce your troubles, Lord Yu."
Li Sheng's footsteps paused for a moment, and he said coldly.
Yu Wuhuan saw that he was bored, and what Li Sheng said also made some sense, so he didn't say anything more, and let Li Sheng gradually walk into the night with the peony.
At this time, Lin Xian'er and Luo Yiyi, who were hiding on both sides of the road, happened to see Li Sheng's figure walking by with a mask, Lin Xian'er couldn't help but have a burst of surprise in her eyes, and muttered to herself-
"He is not from Qi Mingzhou, but he is from Yu Wuhuan? But why do I always feel that he doesn't look like the kind of person who would follow Yu Wuhuan? ”
"Sister Xian'er, what are you talking about? What this person, that person? Confused me. ”
Luo Yiyi asked with a headache shaking her head.
"Shhhh Stay silent and keep up. ”
Lin Xian'er glanced at Luo Yiyi and motioned to follow Li Sheng.
Luo Yiyi was helpless, and glanced back at the hall that was already a mess, thinking that she couldn't find out anything about the Nine Heavens Snow Lotus for a while, so it was better to follow along.
The moonlight was long and long, Li Sheng walked a few alleys with the peony in his arms and continued to walk forward, Lin Xian'er was also very interested, but Luo Yiyi was so trapped that she almost lost herself.
Along the way, she saw many people sleeping on the spot and in their clothes, and they fell to the ground crookedly, as if they were drunk, and it was a little scary to look at.
"Isn't the wine here fragrant? Why is it that everyone is like drunk, and they can't even wake up when they fall to the ground? ”
Luo Yiyi kicked a person who was sleeping very heavily on the side, but found that the person didn't react at all, as if he was dead, and couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.
"They're not drunk. Instead, he fell victim to a strange Gu poison. ”
Lin Xian'er turned around and explained to Luo Yiyi.
However, in the middle of the gap when she turned back to explain, when she looked back, she found that she had lost the person!
"What about people?"
Lin Xian'er was shocked in her heart, and looked into the distance, but she never found Li Sheng's figure.
Her heart immediately became vigilant, and she slowly grasped the sword she carried with her.
But at this time, Li Sheng's figure walked out at a street corner, and the peony was gone.
But he smiled slightly, and said slowly: "The fairy girl is following you late at night, could it be that she has fallen in love with her face?" ”
