Chapter 596: Defeat
Since that visit, the group of children led by Ah Li have often come to Ying to play, and Ying has not refused, because she also hopes that she can have some people to accompany her, and the children are just right, and there are not so many complicated and dark thoughts.
Ying was also worried about their parents' attitudes, and asked if their parents would scold them for coming to play with her.
Ah Li replied with a smile at the time: "No, although they are very unhappy every time I say that I want to come to play with Sister Ying, I haven't said that I can't come." ”
This made Ying nod, it seems that not all demons are very repulsive to the existence of humans, but it doesn't matter, he is just a passerby who came for Baili Jialie.
So, these children often come to play according to Ying, and after seeing the process of weaving cloth again, they also felt a deep pride in this exquisite craft, so Ying homeopathically taught them these small crafts, not only weaving, but also carving, gardening, etc., and Ying also slowly began to tell them some stories about the human world.
In these stories that fascinated them, they gradually learned more about human beings, and after they inadvertently spread these stories, the people of the demon race have some understanding of human beings, and their prejudice and discrimination against human beings seem to have weakened.
The days are getting better day by day, Ying has been very calm, all she wants is to be able to stay with Baili Jialie before she dies, but the good times don't last long, two and a half years after Baili Jialie left, there was a battle report from the front line, and the demon king was defeated.
As soon as the news came back, the entire demon world was in an uproar.
After all, the demon race is extremely restless by nature, and after this news came back, the entire demon world was shrouded in a shadow, and even Ying, who lived alone, felt the restless breath.
The Demon King was defeated...... How is Baili Kareh now?
Ying's heart was full of anxiety, but she could only endure her inner emotions and continue to live like this. Because in the eyes of those demons, she is just an outsider after all, and they never tell Ying clearly about the war report, Ying can only occasionally learn some information about the outside world through the mouths of those children.
It's just that those children also told Ying that now in the demon world, dissatisfaction with the demon king is rising, and Baili Jialie originally suddenly appeared to occupy the position of the demon king, which made many people who originally had plans very dissatisfied, that is, these people, after the news of the defeat of the demon king, began to spread some remarks unfavorable to the demon king.
But this move also made Ying a little relieved, because it showed that although the Demon King was defeated, he was still alive, and he might not even be seriously injured, because if the Demon King was weak, those who intended to turn the tables would definitely not let go of this opportunity, and their movements would definitely not be so gentle.
This idea is also an anchor that allows Ying to continue to wait for the return of Baili Kalie in the main hall with peace of mind.
And while Ying was waiting for the results with hidden anxiety in her heart, the elder's situation was very bad.
"What do you want to do!" Facing the aggressive demon protector in front of him, the elder asked angrily.
"Of course, it's for the sake of the future of the demons." The Demon Protector said arrogantly, as soon as he heard about Baili Jialie
After the defeat, he came to the elder and demanded that the power of the army under Baili Kareh be divided.
"It's not that time yet, the Demon King is still fighting on the front line, and you are going to fight for power and profit in the back now, dragging the demons back?" The elder asked in disbelief.
"Hmph, he lost the battle, why should he continue to lead our demon army? Where did he come out again, and why was he able to ascend to the throne of the Demon King as soon as he returned? "This demon protector has long had a lot of thoughts about the Demon King Throne, and his dream of the Demon King was shattered after Baili Jialie appeared, so now he is trying his best to find fault with Baili Jialie.
The elder became more and more angry, but the main reason for his anger was not at the Dharma protector in front of him, but at the person behind this Dharma protector.
This protector has always been straight-minded, and originally he just had some thoughts about the position of the demon king, but now that the reaction is so fierce, there will definitely be people stirring up trouble behind his back.
Now is the moment of life and death for the demon race, these people are still like this! When the demon king comes back, don't think about any of these people! The elder closed his eyes, suppressed the emotions in his heart, and began to patiently persuade the protector in front of him who wanted military power.
After all, there wasn't much scheming, so this protector finally understood something under the elder's earnest temptation, muttered something and went back, and the elder issued a proclamation, so that the people of the demon clan were a little calmer, believed in the demon king, and finally returned to his room.
The moment he returned to his room and closed the door of the room, the elder's face turned pale, his face was like gold paper, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
After spitting out this mouthful of blood, the elder stiffened, sat down slowly against the door, leaned on the floor and closed his eyes to breathe.
Before the protector came to ask for military power, there was a turmoil in the largest square of the demon race, and a large number of instigated demon youths gathered there to riot, and the elders hurried over to suppress this trend, but it was necessary to suppress those young people, but not to let the future of these demons be hurt too much, which was also a great burden for the elders who were already too consumed.
In addition, there have been a lot of demon affairs recently, and it seems that there are hostile alien races that have infiltrated their demon base camp and have not yet been found, which makes the elders feel a lot of pressure every day.
Therefore, after sending the Dharma Protector away, the elder could no longer suppress his injuries and spat out a mouthful of blood.
After spitting out this mouthful of blood, the elder's face was much better, he wiped the blood, covered up the signs of injury, and went back to his desk to deal with the things of the front.
At this time, he heard that his guards had come to report that Ying had come to visit.
The elder gave an order through the door to let Ying in, and then ordered his subordinates to leave, leaving Ying alone.
If it were other outsiders, they might think that this was something that the elder and Ying had to discuss secretly, but Ying keenly sensed that something was wrong.
Ying closed the door of the room after entering the room, and walked towards the elder sitting at the desk, she just wanted to speak, but she was quickly startled, the elder lay on the desk for a long time without moving.
"Elder!" Ying called out in a low voice, and then helped the elder up, shocked to find that the document in front of the elder had been stained red with blood. The elder gasped weakly as he lifted himself up
sighed, opened his eyes, and after seeing Shi Ying, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly, "Help me to the bed." ”
Ying hurriedly helped him up, then tidied up the desk, put aside the blood-stained papers, and then returned to the elder's bedside and asked worriedly, "What can I do?" ”
"In the cupboard, the yellow bottle, which contains what I need." The elder weakly ordered, and decisively took the medicine inside after the result Ying hastily brought the medicine.
Not long after swallowing the medicine, the elder's face turned visibly rosy, which made Ying a little frightened, it felt like he was ...... Overdraft Life!
However, the elder and her are people who don't have much time to live, and this overdrawn life can be said to be in vain, Ying smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, Elder, I dragged you down." ”
The elder waved his hand: "No, it's not you, and I didn't do this just for you, so I don't have to blame myself too much." As he spoke, he glanced at Ying, who lowered his eyes, and suddenly asked, "Do you have any regrets?" ”
"What?" Ying was a little surprised when he suddenly asked like this, seeing Ying's expression, the elder naturally understood, and he nodded: "If you have regrets, then try your best to complete it, don't worry too much, just do what you want to do, otherwise, at the end of the day, you will leave with regrets." ”
"Regrets?" Ying lowered his eyes, he has nothing to be nostalgic for, he has no feelings for the demon world, even in the human world, there is nothing worthy of his nostalgia, whether it is the human world or the current demon world, the only motivation for his existence is Xiao Hei, no, it can't be called Xiao Hei, this is detrimental to the majesty of the Demon King, it should be called Baili Jialie.
Ying smiled bitterly, his only nostalgia and only regret were all Baili Jialie.
After that, Ying assisted the elder in destroying the things that could prove that the elder was injured, and after taking care of the elder for a while, the elder's condition improved, and she returned to her own place.
After going back, Ying has been feeling a little uneasy. She went to look for the elder just now to get some news about Baili Jialie, but the elder didn't say much, just asked Ying to believe Baili Jialie.
Ying was originally a little confident that Baili Jialie would be able to return smoothly, but now it is not necessarily, all kinds of speculations keep echoing in her mind, making her feel uneasy, and she doesn't even have the heart to take care of those flowers and plants that were originally carefully cared for.
Fortunately, the maids also have a better understanding of these flowers and plants under Ying's training, and with their takeover, these flowers and plants continue to bloom tenaciously.
At this time, Ah Li brought some children to play in Ying.
Ying, who was originally a little upset, smiled and asked the maids to bring the children in, and then prepared the children's favorite herbal tea, as well as various snacks she had researched when she had nothing to do, to entertain the children.
"Sister Ying!" Ah Li said hello to Ying sweetly: "Our parents seem to be very busy recently, and they don't have time to care about us, so they can often come to play with Sister Ying!" ”
"You're welcome." Ying smiled and touched Ah Li's head.
At this time, she suddenly felt that something seemed to be wrong.
