Early the next morning, when Changye got up to wash himself, he felt that the next door was surprisingly quiet. He thought that Princess Zhaoyang had a bad temper, so she deliberately awkwardly awkward with him and ran out alone, but he didn't care too much.

It wasn't until two hours later, when his luck had healed, that he felt that something was wrong.

"What about the princess?"

Changye drank the decoction in one go, and looked at Lihu who was standing aside.

Lihu sighed slightly, and while collecting the medicine bowl, he took out something from his arms and pushed it in front of Changye: "The princess will return to the ninth day before dawn, and she will give this to the adult at the end of her life when she leaves." ”

"What is ......?"

Chang Ye looked at the walnut-sized items on the table, and couldn't help but be stunned, and before he finished speaking, he fell silent, and after a long time, his face sank like water and asked, "Where did this thing come from?" ”

"Near the barrier of the Quinoa Mountain."

Chang Ye let out an "oh" sound, and waved his hand to order Lihu to retreat.

Lihu is no matter how thick the lines are, he can see the subtlety of the matter, and besides, the matter of Kunlun Xianjun and Princess Zhaoyang has long been not a secret of Jiutian, he wanted to comfort him, but when the words came to his mouth, he stopped talking, and finally shook his head and retreated.

The room fell silent again.

Even after three hundred years, Chang Ye still recognized the thing on the table at a glance, this is a carved core orchid, exquisite skills, lifelike, and more importantly, this is made of peach pits above the nine heavens.

The rules of heaven are fixed, and the things of the nine heavens cannot be lowered. Even a peach pit thrown into kitchen waste cannot break the ring.

Chang Ye frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of imperceptible heartache.

Why was that girl so stupid......

Now that I think about it, it was he who made a wrong example at first that made the other party guilty of an inexcusable sin.

If I had understood my mind earlier, would it have been another reversal?

Chang Ye leaned weakly on the couch chair, looking at the blue sky outside the window, and seemed to hear the desperate cry of that day in his ears-

She said, Changye, you are so ruthless!

Word by word, it struck on his heart, and the dull pain was incomprehensible.

In the end, he didn't hold back, a mouthful of blood choked out and sprayed on the windowsill, the internal injury in his chest went from pain to numbness, Chang Ye smiled self-deprecatingly, feeling that he was to blame for today.

If it weren't for Lihu knocking on the door and no one answering, breaking down the door, Chang Ye really wanted to sleep like this.

"Zhaoyang has gone back, why are you still staying in the mortal world?"

He woke up and saw the people guarding the door, and his depressed mood was a little irritable.

"Your Excellency, you've changed." Lihu didn't respond to his words, just lowered his head and clenched his fists, and said in a depressed tone with a bit of regret, "In the past, you would never give up on yourself. ”

Chang Ye pressed one arm on his forehead, and said to himself: "You go back, by the way, tell the emperor that on the tenth day of the first month of next month, I will bring the Jiuli pot back to Jiutian, and allow him to give him a few more days." ”

"And what about your injuries?"

"I know my injuries."

"What about Princess Zhaoyang?"

"She shouldn't have come with her in the first place, but now it's just right to go back."

"Immortal Monarch!" Lihu finally couldn't help it and burst out, "If you continue like this, the emperor will lose patience with you sooner or later, do you really want to be exiled forever and never return to Kunlun?!" ”

Chang Ye was silent for a moment, with a look of alienation and indifference, glanced at him, and said slowly: "I advise you to go back quickly, stay behind the immortal privately, and know what the consequences will be, you know what the consequences will be." ”

"The last general stayed with the consent of the princess," Lihu raised his head stubbornly, without fear, "Even if the emperor blames him, the last general will be at most unfavorable, but it will not affect the assistance of Lord Changye to subdue the ancient artifact." ”

"You've learned a lot about this rhetoric." Chang Ye remembered all the things he had led the troops before, and his face was slightly pale, "Don't forget your identity, accompany the king like a tiger, it's better to be cautious when you speak." ”

Lihu hurriedly hugged his fists and said yes, and the original tense atmosphere was also eased a lot: "It's just that the end is unknown, since the demon prince Cangyi was injured by the artifact, I heard that it has not healed, and the demon world does not dare to act rashly, the Three Realms are now peaceful, why did the emperor choose this time to get the Jiuli pot?" ”

"That was my unfinished business before the Netherworld."

Chang Ye didn't want to explain too much about the matter between him and Zhaoyang, so he was casually perfunctory.

Lihu was puzzled: "Even so, there is no need for the emperor to bother the adults to go in person now, not to mention that there are many immortals in the Nine Heavens, and now the Antarctic Emperor and the Greedy Wolf Star Monarch are extremely trusted by the emperor, and whoever you choose to come will not return empty-handed." ”

Therefore, the drunkard does not mean to drink.

"It's better that you don't know much about some things." Chang Ye didn't want to pull Lihu into his entanglement, so he changed the topic, "I'm injured now, it's inconvenient to travel, anyway, I have to wait until the eighth day of the next month, take advantage of the time you go to the vicinity of Jiqu Mountain to investigate, we can find the weak point of the barrier in advance, and it will be convenient to enter the mountain next time." ”

Leaving the Tiger Command.

A few days later, Chang Ye was alone in the inn to recuperate.

As his spirit slowly recovered, he became suspicious of the nuclear eagle.

"How did the princess get this thing?"

After Lihu finished exploring the situation, Chang Ye took out the carving core and put it on the table.

Lihu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and shook his head: "The princess didn't say anything, and the last general didn't dare to ask more." But the last general speculated that it should have been picked up by his subordinates when they helped the princess find the Qiankun bag. ”

"Qiankun bag?"

Lihu nodded: "The princess said that she was left behind when she escaped, so she ordered the generals to look for it." ”

Chang Ye pondered for a while: "The Qiankun Bag was also found near the barrier of the Quinoa Mountain?" ”

Lihu said yes, Chang Ye bowed his head, and sure enough, he guessed correctly, this carving core was not deliberately carried by Zhaoyang.

Could it be the pot keeper?

Chang Ye frowned, feeling that it was not right, Jiuli Hu had been hidden in the Quinoa Mountain for thousands of years, and the pot keepers could not get rid of the shackles and move freely.

"You don't think the pot keeper will be honest, do you?" Lihu guessed his mind and felt a little unreliable.

Chang Ye shook his head, put away the nuclear carving in his hand, and clenched it tightly: "I have my own way to do this." ”

In the blink of an eye, it was the eighth day of the next month, Chang Ye's injuries were basically healed, and he took Lihu to break through the barrier of Jiqu Mountain very smoothly, and even quickly found the hiding place of the pot keeper.

However, the two searched for most of the hour, but there was no trace of the pot keeper.

"Could it be that this guy is scared?"

Lihu kicked the dead branch lying on the ground and spat on it.

"Not necessarily." Chang Ye looked around very cautiously, "Be careful of deception." ”

As soon as the voice fell, a gust of wind blew up, and suddenly the yellow sand swirled in the sky, stirring up the light and darkness of the vision.

"Immortal Monarch be careful!"

Lihu immediately pulled out the artifact, looked nervous and stood back to back with Chang Ye.

Chang Ye hummed, and before he could say the next sentence, he heard the sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air, surging from all directions like a broken bamboo.

"Don't get separated from the tiger!"

Chang Ye quickly flipped out the sword flower, blocking the frontal attacks of countless phantom flow swords, and with his other hand, he took out the colorful cloak from his arms, pinched it, and tied the wrists of the two together.

"It looks like you two are ready to die together."

A figure sneered, with a thick murderous aura, and walked out of the yellow sand flying in the sky.

Chang Ye obviously felt that the pot keeper was different from the last time he fought, and made a preemptive strike: "We don't have to fight again, if it wasn't for Zhaoyang last time, I would have taken the Jiuli pot a long time ago, and this time I came, I have something to ask you." ”

The pot keeper snorted coldly: "I have nothing to tell you!" ”

As he spoke, the phantom flow sword around him was densely packed in the air, lined up in a wall, and the sword body was all aimed at Chang Ye and Lihu, as long as the two of them moved slightly, they would be pierced into a sieve.

Lihu clenched the artifact in his hand, gritted his teeth and said: "Immortal Jun, the other party is fighting for his life, why should we show mercy." ”

Chang Ye thought for a while and agreed: "Keep alive, I still have something to ask." ”

Lihu didn't speak, launched an attack in advance, and the demon halberd in his hand suddenly turned into a nine-section copper whip, like a red snake flowing, red light appeared everywhere he went, and rushed to the center of the sword array with a thunderous momentum, and the phantom sword was instantly arranged in a row and suppressed back, and from a distance, it looked like two giant pythons fighting together in silver and red, setting off smoke and dust all over the ground.

Suddenly, the bronze whip flashed, breaking through the sword formation, and swooping down like an arrow off the string.

"Stop!"

Chang Ye's roar and the sound of the sword body breaking were mixed together, drowning in the huge air current, and the pot keeper was thrown into the air like a leaf, and was thrown in two by the copper whip.

"You!"

He glared at the people around him, withdrew his multicolored cloak, and struck him away with a sword.

When Chang Ye walked to the guardian's side, he saw him leaning on the stone with blood blisters in his mouth: "I know...... I knew it...... He's dead, and I'm not alive......"

"I didn't mean to kill you."

Chang Ye lowered his eyes a little apologetically.

The pot keeper showed a look of contempt and sneered, "Didn't you think about it? If it weren't for the Nine Heavens Princess making trouble last time, you would be ready to kill me, right? ”

Chang Ye was speechless for a while, with a little helplessness: "If you are willing to lend the Jiuli pot, I may not be ruthless." ”

"Borrow?" The pot keeper laughed, choking out more blood, and didn't care about it, "That fool with the carved core is right, you gods are all ruthless, and you are not as affectionate and righteous as the demon world." Now that you have sent someone to kill him, I will not believe you! ”

As he spoke, his consciousness blurred, and the light in his eyes dimmed.

Chang Ye stood in place a little stunned, thinking back to what he had just said, and suddenly understood.

He immediately turned around, rushed to Lihu's side, grabbed him by the collar, lifted him up, and asked, "Did you plan to kill the pot keeper a long time ago?" ”

Lihu smiled bitterly, wiped the blood from his mouth, and lowered his head: "Adults understand, why bother asking the last general." ”

Chang Ye put the sword across his neck with his backhand, and said coldly: "Say, what else does Zhaoyang know!" ”

Lihu did not mean to retreat, on the contrary, he was very calm, and he had expected this day: "The princess only said that this is an opportunity for adults, and if the adults don't do it, they will be replaced by the general." ”

Changye Dan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face was gloomy: "Why do you want to kill the person with the carving core?" ”

Lihu was injured by the sword qi and coughed twice: "This, the last general doesn't know." ”

After finishing speaking, he took out a silk silk from his arms: "This is the location of the last general to privately explore the location of the carving core, and the adults should be able to find something if they go now." ”

Chang Ye didn't take over, nor did he let go of Lihu, and his tone was cold: "How can I trust you?" ”

Lihu then smiled bitterly: "Xianjun once taught the last general, the military order is like a mountain, and the last general has to do it, but these are the only ones who can help Xianjun." ”

Chang Ye thought for a moment, let go of his hand, took the silk silk, and suddenly calmly frightened: "Lihu, you take the Jiuli pot back to Jiutian to invite merit, we don't want to meet again in the future." ”

Lihu raised his head painfully, looked at the back of Chang Ye above the auspicious clouds, and muttered to himself: "Xianjun, Xianjun, Princess Zhaoyang is no longer the little girl playing in Kunlun Mountain." ”
