Chapter 49: Before Sunrise

The underworld has been relatively stable over the years, and there are few violations of law and discipline. Even if there is any mess, most of them are insignificant.

Hades basically didn't need to meddle in these little things, and some of his subordinates cleaned them up for him.

It's been a while since the gods didn't ask about the underworld. And just now, he solved a small minion with his own hands, which made the ghosts who had been doing things for him very puzzled.

They felt that Shen Tu didn't seem to be in a good mood, and they thought that they were just using the topic to vent their grievances.

Shen Tu sent away a group of ghosts, leaving only Zhong Jiu.

He sat on the wide seat, squinted at Zhong Jiu, and after a long time asked, "Have you found Bai Yingning?"

Zhong Jiu nodded and said, "Yes."

Shen Tu hooked the corners of his mouth and smirked and asked, "Her Lost Soul Gu Night Monarch has been cured?"

Zhong Jiu was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Yes."

Shen Tu got down from the seat, slowly walked to him, circled around him, and continued to ask coolly, "Then why didn't you bring her here?" Didn't I tell you to bring her when you find her, I want to see her. ”

Zhong Jiu thought for a moment before saying, "I want to wait until she is fully recovered, and then bring her here."

Shen Tuhaha laughed a few times, and his tone was super smug and a little cold: "Wait for her to fully recover?" To what extent? Do you remember all the things that were before? Zhong Wuqi, aren't you afraid that she will remember the past and turn against you? ”

Zhong Jiu let out a long sigh: "Whether she remembers the past or not, I don't care, as long as she lives well, I will be satisfied."

Shen Tu gritted his teeth, he walked to the seat with a snort, lifted his robe and sat down cross-legged, and stared at Zhong Jiu for a long time before saying, "My period, you must not force me."

Zhong Jiu lowered his eyes and was stunned for a moment and said, "I know, you didn't plan to let her go." Haven't you always sent demons to follow me? You didn't believe me from the beginning, and you lent me the Soul Bead just to use me to find Linlang, and then find an opportunity to do it. ”

Shen Tu smiled faintly: "You actually speculate about me like this, I asked them to follow you, just afraid that you will encounter the Night Monarch, there will be any difficulties, they can help in time, not as you think." Besides, even if I did it, I wouldn't do it quietly, that wouldn't be in line with my style. ”

Zhong Jiu snorted with a smile and continued, "Lord Hades, I can understand that you are worried that Linlang will take your place as before. However, please believe me once, when Linlang is well, I will immediately take her back to the mountains and forests, and promise never to set foot in the underworld. ”

Shen Tu looked at him questioningly, and said coldly: "I naturally believe in you, but I can't believe in Yejun." He has always been a wolf and ambitious, and he is unwilling to be subservient. He was banished to Jiuyin Mountain for hundreds of years, and now that he has escaped, how can he not do something? ”

"In that case, let's make an exchange, I'll help you except Yejun, you let Linlang go." Zhong Jiudao.

Shen Tu hesitated for a long time before he said reluctantly: "In this way, it depends on you, I will wait for your good news here, I hope you don't let me down."

After the Night Monarch knocked Linlang with a threatening belt, he returned to the room, where Red Aya was already waiting.

Yejun yawned lazily, stroked the tears in the corners of his eyes and said, "You guys are really getting more and more unruly, why don't you always say hello and just come into my room, am I so easy to talk in your eyes?"

Hong Aya smiled and said softly: "Even you don't have any rules, where are you qualified to ask others." You're not lazy, why don't you like us to be unrestrained? ”

Yejun stretched out a finger, nodded at Hong Aya, and said with a sneer: "I finally understand why you and Ning Ning were able to get together in the first place, the same freewheeling, the same sharp teeth."

Hong Aya straightened her face and said seriously: "I'm not here to joke with you, it's time to talk about business."

Yejun smiled, took out the folding fan pinned to his waist, opened it lightly and shook it, and a fragrance of flowers spread. He closed his eyes and said leisurely, "It's not a big deal, why are you so nervous."

Hong Aya frowned, and asked dissatisfiedly: "What is it that doesn't matter, if Linlang can remember the past, it will be a very important matter for us."

Yejun smiled even more, he patted Hong Aya's shoulder, and said softly, "Red Aya, it should be them who are nervous now, not us. It's been a long time since Shen Tu has been out of the mountain, and now he probably can't stay in the underworld. Tomorrow, you can just do what I say, and you don't have to worry about the rest. ”

Hongya was still skeptical, and she asked again, "Zhong Jiu, I don't have any scruples, but are you sure that Shen Di will be led by your nose?" If he doesn't believe you, won't we be working in vain? ”

Yejun sighed and said: "If you care, you will be chaotic, Shen Di wants Yingning to die the most now, he will definitely not give up any opportunity, so he will definitely believe me." When the time comes, you will have enough time to tell the story of the past with Yingning. ”

Red Aya is not completely unconvinced of the Night King, he has always been treacherous and thoughtful. It's that she herself doesn't quite understand why Shen Tu wants to put Yingning to death like this, and he used to kill her despite public opinion. It was only later that something happened that he was forced to demote Yingning to the world. There must be some secret between them that she and Linlang don't know.

Yejun knew that Red Aya was puzzled by everything, but he didn't want to explain it at the moment, and some things were most interesting if they still needed to discover them themselves.

Linlang has always been uneasy lately, and she feels that something big is going to happen. She had a gut feeling that it would be related to Zhong Jiu, and she regretted her agreement with him a little. Yejun clearly said that she would not let Zhong Jiu go, but she promised to wait for him to come back to pick her up. If Zhong Jiu was put in a desperate situation because of her, wouldn't she be guilty for the rest of her life.

Linlang couldn't sleep at night, and before dawn, she got up from the bed. Yun'er came in with a dress and a half-candle in her hand, and she asked softly, "Miss, why did you get up so early?"

Linlang looked at the foggy sky outside, sighed and said: "I can't sleep, my heart is a little blocked, I want to go outside to breathe."

Yun'er put the candle on the candlestick on the table, quickly put on her clothes, and picked up the clothes from the hanger and dressed her intimately. Yun'er said beside her, "Miss, it's a little cold outside, let's come back after a while."

Linlang hummed and said, "You can help me get another cloak."

She and Yun'er went to the courtyard together, and it was wet outside, and there were crystal dew drops hanging on the lotus leaves in the lake. The air was clean and fresh, and the breath in her chest was finally more relaxed.

She sat down in the pavilion for a while, Yun'er was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she kept urging in her ear: "Miss, let's go back, it's still early, Miss can sleep for a while."

Linlang looked at the sky in the distance, and a little light was already visible, and the sun was about to start moving, about to jump out of the horizon.

Linlang smiled and said, "Wait a little longer, let's go back after watching the sunrise."

Yun'er wrapped her cloak tightly, combed her somewhat messy hair, and said, "Miss originally wanted to see the sunrise, and the slave was worried about whether Miss was unwell again."

Linlang put her hands on her cheeks and said loudly: "My current health is very good, I am like a sick man in the past, I dislike myself."

Little by little, the sun came out, and the originally gray sky lit up in an instant. The warm and soft sunlight shines on every corner of the yard, and the body warms up after a while.

Yun'er didn't know when she went to serve tea, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to her, and said, "Miss, have a cup of tea to warm up, and the slave will let the kitchen bring some food later."

Linlang took the tea and held it in the palm of her hand, took a sip gently, and the brilliant golden light sprinkled on her body, making her extraordinarily gentle and gentle.

Yejun leaned on the pillar in the distance with his hands behind his back, looking at Linlang who was enjoying the sunrise, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised. Yingning, it's time for us to fight side by side again.

He walked over slowly, Yun'er saw him first, and bent down slightly to salute him, but he raised his hand to stop him, and made Yun'er retreat with a look.

Linlang didn't know that Yejun was behind her, and said, "Yun'er, look at how beautiful the morning sun is!"

Yun'er didn't speak, she felt strange, so she looked back, and when she saw Yejun, she was stunned for a moment.

Yejun was staring at her and smiling, his smile warmer than the newborn sun. Linlang was in a trance for a while, as if she had seen such a smile somewhere. With such tenderness and familiarity, she suddenly became flustered, and her heart was extremely resistant to such a feeling.

She lowered her head and refused to face him, and Yejun smiled beside her and said, "How did you think of watching the sunrise?" I don't think I've seen a sunrise in a long time, you should call me. ”

Linlang was stunned for a moment, looked at the red sun, and said softly: "I was also on a whim, and I didn't plan to watch the sunrise."

Yejun reached out to touch her head, but she realized that he had dodged, Yejun's fingers were stunned in mid-air, and he withdrew his hand with some embarrassment. After a while, he spoke, "I will take you to a place of reconciliation today, and you will go with me?"

Linlang raised her eyes to look at him and asked suspiciously, "Where are you going?"

He stood up, flew to the middle of the lake on tiptoe, and in a moment flew over, holding a budding lotus flower in his hand. He handed it to Linlang and said with a smile: "Flowers match beauty, but this flower is too bright, not as fresh and refined as you."

Linlang was embarrassed by his compliments, and she was holding the flower in her hand, a little at a loss.

Yejun laughed a few times, "You're so shy, I really haven't seen it for a long time." ”

Linlang was unhappy in her heart, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Where did you say you were taking me?"

Yejun let out a long breath and said, "Go to a place where you once lived."

"Where?" Linlang asked.

"You'll know when you go." After Yejun finished speaking, he walked away lazily with his hands behind his back.

The uneasiness in Linlang's heart grew bigger and bigger, she raised her hand to cover her chest, as if she had been twisted by a knife, she couldn't control this feeling, which made her anxious.
