Chapter 21: Living on the Streets
Eclipse Yin said lazily: "What's the news?" ”
The shadow guard named Seventeen didn't have the slightest expression on his face, and said mechanically: "The National Teacher Tianlu has returned to the National Teacher's Mansion!" ”
Just when Ying Wei finished speaking, a trace of ruthlessness crossed his eyes, for so many years, the national teacher Tianqu has always been a thorn in his eyes, this thorn has been pierced for a long time, and it is also very deep, but it can't be pulled out, so that he feels a headache every time he thinks about it.

"Did he make any moves when he came back?" Eclipse asked coldly.
"Everything works!" The shadow guard still replied mechanically without emotion.
Eclipse Yin nodded, thoughtfully, and couldn't help but think about the current situation, every time this national teacher comes back, something must happen, he doesn't think that Tianli is coming to Luojia City to visit relatives, he must be back then it must mean that there will be something worth working on his side to deal with.
Eclipse Yin sneered, and couldn't help but conceive of countless conspiracies for the thorn of the Tian Oak, but in the end it was in vain, because these conspiracies in his heart had been carried out against the Tian Oak in turn, but the Tian Oak was still alive and sound, and it was more and more respected in the hearts of the demon people, and this status was close to him as a ruler.
He snorted coldly unconvinced, and then said to the shadow guard: "You go and watch him, and if you have anything to do with it, you will report it immediately!" ”
The shadow guard nodded, and after getting the task, he turned around and was about to leave, but who knew that his body had disappeared, and suddenly shouted from behind: "Come back!" "This doesn't have to be obediently revealed.
"Go and check if there is a person named Cang Lone, and if you find it, you will be executed directly!" Eclipse Yin said fiercely.
Hearing this, the Shadow Guard nodded expressionlessly, and then disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
There is only one creature in this world that is suitable for shadow guards, and that is the Charm, because they have no actual form, and they are ever-changing, and no one can detect them, and no one can catch them.
And this shadow guard of the eclipse yin has been specially trained, there are thousands of people, all of them are scattered all over the demon world, if it weren't for these shadow guards, he might not have been able to kill the previous demon lord so smoothly back then, and ascend to the supreme throne, and this group of shadow guards has to say that he also spent a lot of money, otherwise he would have gone there to find so many charms!
So he has always trusted his shadow guards very much, and most of the tasks are entrusted to them.
It is said that after the shadow guard disappeared, he immediately spread the news that the eclipse was going to investigate a person named Cang Lonely and killed him to other partners, and then so many shadow guards spread the word ten or ten hundred in a hundred ways, only one person like Cang Lonely was really in the territory of the Demon Realm, I am afraid that he would not be able to escape such a killing!
But when it came to one of the shadow guards, a different kind of vision flashed in the original black and empty eyes of the shadow guard, and then disappeared into the air, leaving no trace at all, this is the magic of the charm, they seem to have a naturally powerful stealth technique, no one can help them, of course, their colleagues also have mortal enemies, and their mortal enemies are a kind of people called wizards, a spell can easily trap them in a piece of paper, and be crushed into a ball of ink, There is no longer a right to live.
On the street of Dream City, two little beggars dressed in tatters limped over, one of them was a woman, as if she had a wound on her foot, and was supported by a man on the side, she was very dirty and torn all over her body, and her clothes had long been indistinguishable from their original appearance, but vaguely felt that they were yellow.
And the man on the side is the same, his clothes have already been torn into strips, but he can barely maintain it from falling off, his body is very dirty, but fortunately, his hands and feet are fine, he is very diligent to support the woman, but the woman seems to be very unappreciative, while pushing him, she is still chattering and scolding.
The woman's scolding voice was very small, as if she was still afraid of being recognized and ugly, so she deliberately lowered her tone, but the man blindly didn't speak, stunned how dare the woman not leave, and the hand that was opened helped the woman again in the next second.
Such an embarrassed pair of people was already very eye-catching on the street, and such a move attracted everyone to stop and watch.
"Yo, this can't be a little couple who eloped! is so embarrassed, isn't it exhausted on the road? ”
"Maybe, maybe it is! It's really aggrieved to watch the girl follow such a useless guy! ”
"I don't think so, seeing that this guy doesn't leave the girl and can't get rid of it, he must be an infatuated person! If I were younger, I would marry a boy like this! An old lady of the demon clan with gray hair said this. The side immediately laughed, and some people said, at least tens of thousands of years younger! Some people ridiculed: "Marrying such a man who has no interest and can't even raise a daughter-in-law is not a crime!" ”
In the eyes of those passers-by, these are just after-dinner conversations, for their demon people, life is too long, long like a boring wait, if you don't find some pastime for yourself, then you're really sorry for yourself.
And these words are in the ears of Lan Qinyan and Liu Ying'er, who have just escaped from the catastrophe, but they are a naked mockery.
Liu Ying'er is a pampered daughter since she was a child, how can she ever suffer like this, every time she thinks of other people's strange eyes, she has no money to heal because she fell from the endless island and injured her foot, every day is like walking on a steel needle, and her grandfather's death, she hates the person who brought herself here, Ming Xue, this name has been deeply engraved into her heart, the water that was stained with a little dust has already been brewed into a cup of deadly poisonous wine at this moment, she must get this justice for herself, She will definitely wait for the opportunity to take revenge, and this has become a secret in her heart, and it has become the reason why she continues to live in the world.
"Ying'er, your feet still hurt, do you want me to carry you!"
"Don't worry about it...... Fake kindness! Seeing Liu Ying'er's poisonous eyes, Lan Qinyan's hand retracted subconsciously as if it had been burned.
After that, he never spoke again, and pulled Liu Ying'er's arm tightly like a stubborn child, and Liu Ying'er couldn't pull back his arm.
Liu Ying'er struggled and struggled to stop moving, and suddenly a grunt spread between the two, and they were very close, so both of them heard it, and then there was a grunt.
Liu Ying'er's face instantly turned red, she hadn't eaten for several days, before in the wild, the two of them could still get some wild fruits to eat, but now, where did the two of them go to find food.
"Ying'er, are you hungry?" Lan Qinyan asked with a serious face and concern.
Liu Ying'er didn't feel particularly embarrassed at first, but Lan Qinyan's face changed instantly, "It's all because of you useless guy!" Hmph, I really don't know how I fell in love with you in the first place, I'm as stupid as a pig! ”
As soon as she said this, the people on the side looked at the two of them strangely, as if their thoughts had been confirmed at once.
Liu Ying'er's face turned even redder, but fortunately, her face was too dirty to see. But after all, she was a little girl, she couldn't stand such pointing and pointing, and tears poured out all of a sudden, at this time, Lan Qinyan, who had no reaction to Liu Ying'er's beating and scolding, panicked, since he was a child, he couldn't see Liu Ying'er crying, he hurriedly apologized: "Ying'er, it's all my fault, don't you cry, okay, I'll find you something to eat right away, okay?" ”
His voice was very helpless and weak, but at this time, Liu Ying'er heard that she was laughing at her embarrassment, and she was even more angry, and she used all her strength to push Lan Qinyan away, wanting to run away alone. But her legs had long since lost their way to support her rapid movements, and she had barely run a few steps before she fell to the ground with an unstable center of gravity.
But she still didn't give up and crawled forward with difficulty, she couldn't stand such stares, she couldn't stand such mocking eyes anymore, she wanted to go, leave these people, find a dark place to hide.
Lan Qinyan hurriedly took two steps and squatted down, trying to help her up, while Liu Ying'er buried her head deep between her arms, unwilling to take it out again.
"Ying'er......" Lan Qinyan called timidly, but he didn't know what to do, and squatted on the ground helplessly, his eyes confused.
At this time, a lively watcher dropped a copper coin and sighed: "It's strange and pitiful to look at two young people!" ”
Then a few more onlookers dropped something, and there was nothing lively to see, plus it was getting late, so these people should do what they should do, and Liu Ying'er didn't slowly turn her head until the crowd dispersed, looked at the copper coins on the ground, and glanced at Lan Qinyan.
Lan Qinyan has always maintained the posture of helping Liu Ying'er, his eyes are confused and empty. And he didn't touch any of the money on the ground.
Seeing this, Liu Ying'er simply did it herself, and said angrily: "Why are you in a daze?" Lan Qinyan came back to his senses at this time, and his eyes were filled with wetness. I...... I thought you would never pay attention to me again! ”
Liu Ying'er didn't respond at all in the face of Lan Qinyan's words, just glanced at the money on the ground, and said in a bad tone: "Don't pick them all up, let's eat!" ”
Lan Qinyan didn't actually mean to pick up the money, glanced at Liu Ying'er, hesitated for a long time, and finally squatted on the ground when Liu Ying'er was impatient and wanted to explode, and carefully picked up the money piece by piece.
But he was always a little reluctant in his heart, and he was poor and did not eat what he wanted, although he didn't understand these big truths, but he was still a little repulsed.
