Chapter 233: Lovesickness to the Bone
Three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and nearly half of the ruins of the hundred miles have been dug at the moment, but no trace of Xie Lingxu has been found, and she seems to have really disappeared from this world, and there has been no news since then.
…… Every time I wake up from a nightmare, I feel suffocated, even if I escape from reality for a short time, everything around me is always just a gloomy phantom, sometimes I silently look at the empty bedroom after she leaves, I always hold that sad thought, imagining whether this is a dream or not, everything is just an illusion, she is still there when she wakes up from the dream, and her smart smile is as usual.
However, all hope is hopeless, and all expectations are delusional......
Time passed, and the land burned by the flames of chaos was still lifeless, and there was nothing but scorched stone in the vast realm, and there was not even a trace of remnant souls.
It seems to have become an indisputable fact that the body and soul are destroyed under the rocks, and there is a certain number in the hearts of the others, but to the emperor it seems to be just an absurd illusion, he is so paranoid, he has never listened to the persuasion of others, and has been looking here day and night, endlessly.
Looking at the stubborn figure of the emperor, He Yan felt worried but helpless, secretly thinking that if this person couldn't find Xie Lingxu, he would not give up, and if he continued like this, he was afraid that he would be tired to death, and he had to slap the emperor back with a palm, and light the requiem incense to make him feel a little more stable.
"Lord He."
Yang Ling took the food and respectfully saluted to He Yan, and the latter asked, "Does the emperor still refuse to eat?" ”
The little eunuch pursed his lips, and his eyebrows were about to twist together: "The emperor doesn't even take medicine, let alone food." ”
"He's going to toss himself for a long time." He Yan shook his head, looked at the emaciated silhouette of the person lying quietly on the couch, and couldn't help but sigh secretly: "That's it, I can't let anything happen to you anymore, you ...... one by one."
…………
…………
The afterglow is about to fall again, I don't know how long this muddy day will last, He Yan stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the decadent ruins and sighed, just about to raise his feet, the sudden emotion made him stop again, looked back at the turbid air, and muttered to himself:
"Do you know that as soon as you leave, his world will collapse, the emperor has not eaten for a long time, and he has barely relied on the internal force I lost to him to support it until now, and if he continues like this, he will not die, but I will be abolished first!"
He Yan shook his head, his eyes a little dark:
"Lingxu, a little conscience, don't go away like this, you can come to your dream and see him."
………………
——————
"Your Majesty, you can eat as much as you want."
The latter was silent, only staring at the lattice of the afterglow, and his mind seemed to have flown out of his body and drifted to the vast land.
Yang Ling knelt on the ground with a "plop", and the guards and eunuchs behind him also knelt on the ground, and everyone lowered their heads, not daring to raise their eyes to look at the figure that was already in shape.
"Your Majesty, if you continue like this, your body can't stand it! I beg the emperor not to guard Lord Xie like this, and let this matter go! ”
The emperor raised his eyes, and his pale lips trembled slightly:
"You're right, instead of wasting your time alone like this, I'd better go with her."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they all kowtowed to the ground: "The emperor ...... The emperor thinks twice, don't think about it! ”
The former seemed to turn a deaf ear, got up from the couch, drew the saber on the waist of the man under his feet, and walked forward without changing his face......
"Emperor, the emperor must not, never ......"
Before the words fell, the sharp blade had already pierced the former's arm, and the thick blood flowed along the sword lines in an instant, and when the pain of skin and flesh came, the heart didn't seem to hurt so much...... Are you suffering from such pain?
"Report-" The comer suddenly broke in, interrupting the blade that was about to fall in the emperor's hand.
"Your Majesty, there are people outside the city asking to see you."
Hearing this, the emperor was about to throw the long sword in his hand aside, and said weakly: "Who? ”
The person who reported it stumped: "I heard that is the ...... The Hidden Pavilion, the Pavilion Master. ”
Knowing the identity of the person who came, the emperor smiled coldly: "Asking to see? When did he say that! ”
"Your Majesty, this person is now waiting outside the city, and I hope for the emperor's instructions."
The latter turned his back and spat out only two indifferent words: "No." ”
————————
Walking in the corridor with his hands in his hands, He Yan rubbed his somewhat sore arms, secretly thinking that it was time to persuade the emperor to eat again, so he immediately helped his forehead and raised his eyes to look at the emperor's bedroom. Seeing that there were a lot of people gathered outside the door of the room that was quiet on weekdays, He Yan couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward, and heard the emperor's somewhat angry voice.
"No, I can't see anyone, let him go!"
"Your Majesty, but the man said that if you don't go to see him, he will attack the city gate......"
"Then let's fight, it's better to rush at me!"
"The Emperor...... The emperor thinks twice! The guard who reported the news fell to his knees, so frightened that he did not dare to come out again.
"What's wrong?" He Yan walked to the two of them with his hands behind his back, looking at the scene in front of him with a puzzled expression.
"Lord Huihe, the people and horses of the Hidden Pavilion are now surrounded outside the city gate, and they must meet the saint."
Hearing this, He Yan raised his eyebrows lightly: "How many people are here?" ”
The man looked at Fang Liang and counted silently for a moment, his tone was a little uncertain: "There are about a dozen people." ”
"I only brought a dozen people, probably not here to make waves, so why do you want to see the emperor?"
"I said that I wanted to make a deal with the emperor, and exchange the coiling dragon golden halberd left by Lord Si Hu back then for what the emperor wanted."
"Deal?" He Yan cupped his chin, his expression a little solemn...... What the emperor wants most is for Lingxu to be safe and sound, does this person have a way to make her reborn?
The corners of his lips were tightly closed, as if he remembered some tedious matter.
"I don't have the heart to make a deal with him."
Seeing that the emperor's eyes were resolute, he turned around to leave without saying anything, and He Yan immediately stopped him, "Your Majesty, this person may have a way to save Lingxu!" ”
Hearing this, the emperor's eyes moved, and his body, which was a little sluggish, couldn't help but be paralyzed for a while, and his eyes seemed to burst out of some fire: "Really, is this really the case?" ”
"The emperor might as well negotiate with him, and Lingxu's affairs may be able to take a turn for the better." He Yan bowed his head slightly, and arched his hand towards the person in front of him.
………………
………………
Standing on the high platform, the emperor stood with his hands in his hands, his long body was so thin that he couldn't support the wide long clothes, and the cold wind blew through his sideburns that he had unintentionally tidied up, showing a little depression.
Looking at the people besieged by heavy soldiers under the city gate, the emperor's heart was like an abyss, and he felt that the man had never taken off the mask on his face, but he seemed to be able to see the latter's indifferent expression at the moment through the bones of the beast.
"What do you want to trade?" He Yan suddenly spoke, and the people under the city replied unhurriedly:
"This seat said that if you want a dragon golden halberd, you can exchange it for anything."
The emperor's eyes moved slightly, and he faintly swept over the few people who were following the man, but when his eyes fell on the woman beside him, he couldn't help frowning.
"The Coiling Dragon Golden Halberd is a spiritual weapon left by Lord Si Hu, how can you just give it, what do you want this thing for?" He Yan hugged his arms stiffly, and his expression was particularly solemn.
"This has nothing to do with you, this seat only needs the emperor to reply, do you change it, or don't you change it?"
The man's low voice came from a distance, but the emperor seemed to be deaf, his mind was taken away, his body was stiff and unable to move, only the heartbeat was as violent as a drum, almost breaking through his chest...... The woman in black was silent, her face covered by a black gauze hat, and the breeze blew, showing some faint and hazy meaning, which made people can't help but be deviant when they see it.
At that glance, all kinds of tenderness came to his heart, and his soul, which was full of gloom, seemed to suddenly shine into a beam of light, and the emperor rushed towards the woman, and everyone stumbled close to her.
"The Emperor...... Your Majesty, you ......" He Yan's heart frowned, secretly thinking that this person who was out of control of his emotions might not be stopped by others, so he immediately stepped forward and followed.
Seeing that the man in the yellow robe was approaching, the woman stepped back and dodged, and the man on her side immediately stepped out to stop her.
She lowered her head and never raised her eyes, as if she felt a little inexplicable about the situation at this moment.
"You ......" The emperor's eyebrows frowned, although he couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but her figure and aura were so familiar, as long as he looked at her eyes, he could confirm it, but the former didn't look at him from beginning to end, I don't know whether he was afraid or deliberately avoided.
"Your Majesty, dedicate the Coiling Dragon Golden Halberd to this seat, and this seat can give you everything you want."
After the man finished speaking, the emperor didn't care, his naked eyes fell on the woman in black, and he was already out of his mind.
Seeing that the emperor had already looked straight in the eyes, Yang Ling couldn't help but be a little surprised, secretly thinking that something had happened to the adult, the emperor didn't think about tea and food for her, and he couldn't look at everything around him, why did he stare at the girl in front of him who met for the first time?
The pavilion master's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately said to the person who didn't belong to his heart: "I'm afraid the emperor has recognized the wrong person, why is he looking at the woman like this?" ”
The emperor's pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at the woman in front of him, and his voice trembled a little: "You...... What is your name? ”
"Little woman, named Mo Yu."
The former exited, that is, a gentle and delicate female voice, immature with a bit of shyness, the emperor couldn't help frowning, secretly thinking that this voice was not her.
"You...... Do you recognize me? ”
The woman shook her head and ducked behind the man, and her soft voice said to the eager person in front of her: "I haven't seen you, you...... Don't stare at me like that. ”
"But ......" is so similar, how can he admit his mistake......
Seeing the emperor's strange expression, the pavilion master said solemnly: "Okay, what did the emperor think of what this party just said?" ”
The man blocked the black-clothed woman behind him, and the emperor came back to his senses, and said in an indifferent tone: "It's okay, but this matter is very serious, and it needs to be discussed in the main hall." ”
After the emperor finished speaking, he immediately lowered his eyes and turned around and walked towards the city gate, his thin back gradually moved away, but he still couldn't help but look back at her, his bitter expression seemed to be mixed with some sorrow, and his eyes were full of sadness......
I felt that the former's gaze was really a little dazzling, and the woman in black couldn't help but turn her face sideways, letting the man's stiff back block her vision, and the former suddenly said loudly:
"Let's go."
