Chapter 379: What's Behind the Screen?
Chapter 379 What's Behind the Screen?
The sky is dawning, the wind and rain are receding, maybe God knows that this Double Ninth Festival can't rain all the time, and knows that the qualifying meeting of the Martial Arts League is about to begin. 【Martial Arts】
There are a lot of people who wake up early today, and there are so many things to do.
The venue for the martial arts ranking conference has been made, just in front of the alliance leader's hall, there was a storm last night, and the venue was full of water, and it was okay to say otherwise, but the seat must be cleaned up immediately.
Before dawn in the early morning, Chen Xiao organized people to rush to work immediately, and today is the beginning of the qualifying meeting, and the venue must be cleaned before this, so as to make the leader of the Eastern Alliance happy.
Dongfang Shaobai's intercession is still effective, although he hasn't seen the leader of the Eastern Alliance for the past two days, but he has not heard that the leader of the Eastern Alliance has the intention of blaming himself.
It's just that Chen Xiao's heart is still a little uneasy, after all, the alliance leader has not personally said that he will let him go, and there has always been a stone hanging in his heart.
Dongfang Ming's mind is not guessed, maybe he doesn't have time to clean himself up now, maybe when he is in a bad mood, he will kill himself when he thinks about it.
What he can do now is to work hard to show his loyalty, and only when the alliance leader is happy, can he truly dispel his killing intent.
Early in the morning, he summoned the subordinates of Butterfly Valley to start working, and he personally commanded beside him, shouting at the subordinates from time to time to make them move faster.
"Hurry up, hurry up, it's dawn, and the qualifying meeting will start in just over an hour, and you must do your job beautifully before that." ”
Chen Xiao walked back and forth in the crowd with his hands behind his back, pointing here and directing there.
"Clean up all the water on the ground!"
While talking, Chen Xiao came to the front of the alliance leader's hall to see if there was anything unclean here.
The leader of the Eastern Alliance likes to be clean the most, but he can't be made to feel that some places are not clean.
The door of the main hall is open, and usually the door of this hall is basically not closed, just open, and no one dares to take a step beyond the thunder pool easily.
Chen Xiao too, when he walked to the door, he stopped and glanced into the hall.
The hall was dark and deep, and the young alliance master said that he wanted to open a row of windows on the wall before he could open it, and when he looked inside from Chen Xiao's position, he could only vaguely see the screen behind the throne.
Originally, he was going to leave after glancing at it, but suddenly Chen Xiao found that about two zhang away from the entrance of the main hall, there was actually a row of shallow footprints going deep into the main hall.
Suddenly, Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, the footprints were not wearing shoes, there were no shoes at the entrance of the main hall, and they only appeared two feet forward!
And there are traces of water on the footprints, it should have been not long after I just entered!
"There must be assassins!"
This was Chen Xiao's first thought, because he had never seen the Eastern Alliance Lord come out of the main hall, and the footprints here could only indicate that outsiders had entered the alliance leader's hall!
And just after entering, it is very likely that someone will be unfavorable to the alliance leader.
Moreover, Chen Xiao instinctively thought that this footprint must not be the leader of the alliance, because the leader of the alliance has always worn shoes, and this footprint is barefoot.
For a while, Chen Xiao forgot Dongfang Ming's ban, and took the initiative to walk into the main hall without being summoned, came to a footprint, lowered his head and studied it carefully.
The footprints were not large, and he took his foot and gestured to it, and it was a circle smaller than his own footprint.
It seems to be a woman's footprints.
This footprint went all the way forward, and Chen Xiao also followed all the way forward, wanting to see where this footprint leads.
Just followed the footprints for a while, and suddenly something blocked in front of him, Chen Xiao raised his head violently, only to find that he had actually come to the screen behind the throne of the alliance leader. ..., as long as you take a step further, you can see what is behind this screen that no one has ever seen before.
What Chen Xiao didn't dare to be sure of, what he dared to be sure of was that the alliance leader must be behind the screen, because he had always finished talking to people, so he turned around and walked behind the screen.
But this footprint actually went behind the screen, and this person suspected of being an assassin also went to the back of the screen!
"What should I do?"
Chen Xiao suddenly had no idea, whether to turn around and leave immediately, when he didn't know what to do, or to continue to move forward, showing his loyalty to the Lord.
Many times, in the face of major decisions, people often make some wrong and absurd decisions, especially the more critical the moment, the more so.
Now Chen Xiao is a little dizzy, he feels that he is not wrong to retreat now, but if he sacrifices himself to save the Lord once, no matter whether he succeeds in saving or not, can he make the alliance leader happy?
The most important thing is to let the alliance leader see his loyalty.
By this time, he had forgotten how many people had fallen at this screen.
His hand slowly stretched out to his waist, where there was his weapon, the iron abacus, each abacus bead, was a powerful hidden weapon.
As soon as the hand was placed on the abacus, there was a voice from inside.
It was the voice of the leader of the Eastern Alliance.
"You're running away again, and you're only coming back at this time. ”
No one answered.
"Would you like to be with him? What he said was nice and made you happy. ”
Still no one answered.
"It must be, look at you smiling so beautifully, not ashamed. ”
Chen Xiao's hands were a little trembling outside, he didn't know who the Eastern Alliance Lord was talking to, but he knew that he didn't seem to be able to stay here anymore.
"You actually held hands with him, did your heart beat badly at that time?"
Chen Xiao didn't want to continue listening, he was afraid of hearing some secrets that he shouldn't hear, so he slowly put his hand down from the abacus, held his breath, and quietly took a step back.
"But don't forget who you are, don't forget that you still have something very important to do, don't forget
Yourself. ”
At this time, Chen Xiao stepped back a little again, but unexpectedly, under extreme tension, his footsteps fell a little heavier when he landed, making a slight sound.
Inside, Dongfang Ming's panicked voice came: "Who's outside?"
must have been discovered, Chen Xiao immediately panicked, and couldn't care much about it, his feet accelerated, and he wanted to run out quickly!
As soon as he ran, he immediately thought of it.
Even if he ran out, the alliance leader would know who had come in if he casually inquired, and he wouldn't be able to run away.
I don't know if anyone paid attention when he came in, no one should have noticed, everyone was busy working, and no one noticed that he had entered the alliance leader's hall.
If he didn't leave through the main gate, but appeared from somewhere else, maybe no one would be able to tell him that he had entered the alliance master's hall.
And the only way out is to the top of the wall of the Alliance Leader's Hall, where there is a ventilation window, and it is also the only window in the Alliance Leader's Hall.
It's just that it's very high above the ground, and it will take him a lot of trouble to get there.
But what made Chen Xiao happy was that for some reason, the leader of the Eastern Alliance seemed to be a little flustered indoors, and did not appear immediately.
Although he didn't know why, Chen Xiao felt that there might be a chance, since he didn't come out to chase him, then this was the only chance to escape.
He didn't cross the screen, he didn't speak, and the Eastern Alliance Lord didn't know who was outside.
Making a decision in his heart, Chen Xiao pointed his feet against the wall, and his body suddenly rose into the air, flying directly close to three zhang high.
In order to avoid rain leakage, the window was designed at the top of the wall, and above it was the protruding eaves, which were five zhang high from the ground, and Chen Xiao's strength could not jump up. ..., volleying to a place three zhang high, Chen Xiao used all his strength to pull a gap in the wall, and then rose into the air again with his strength.
It was getting closer and closer to the little window, and it was open, and if he went up a little more, he could leave through it.
As soon as he got there and turned around, maybe he Chen Xiao would be fine.
It was originally a mortal situation, but because the alliance leader never chased it out, there was a glimmer of life.
At the height and angle where Chen Xiao is now, his gaze can already pass over the screen and condescendingly see what is behind the screen.
People's curiosity is sometimes very inexplicable, and now Chen Xiao is, he is obviously about to escape, but in his heart, there is a trace of the urge to peek behind the screen.
What's behind the screen that no one has ever seen before?
The body rose higher and higher, and gradually Chen Xiao was already close to the window, and even his hand had reached out and grabbed the edge of the window.
With a slight exertion, he can leave.
He also exerted his strength, and his body had begun to leap outward, and Chen Xiao was sure that he would definitely be able to escape.
Before escaping, he finally couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, turned his head, and glanced behind the screen.
This glance made Chen Xiao feel like a suffocating thought.
Behind the screen is a wall with a huge door in the middle of it.
This door is just a door frame, there is no door leaf, and from the middle of the door frame, you can vaguely see that there is a huge room inside.
A girl in white stood under the door frame, pressing the shirt on her chest with one hand, as if she had just put it on, a pair of slender and beautiful calves were still exposed, and her beautiful eyes were staring at her tightly.
"It's beautiful!"
This is Chen Xiao's thoughts, it turns out that the leader of the Oriental Alliance, Jinwu Zangjiao, has such a beautiful girl behind the screen that no one has ever been to.
I don't know if she recognizes herself, Chen Xiao has no time to worry about a lot, and he is leaving.
But just as he was about to leave the room, the girl in white shook her hand at herself.
A silver light pierced the space, Chen Xiao had no chance to dodge at all, his body trembled, and he still flew out of the window with inertia, but after getting out of the window, he had already turned into a corpse and fell straight outside the hall of the alliance leader's hall!
