Chapter 214: Rouge Well
"I don't want to get my clothes wet," the last green yarn slipped from the maid's sister's fragrant shoulders, and she turned her head and looked at me suspiciously, "Isn't it true that you Terrans take a bath and don't take off your clothes?" β
"You want to be with me?" I asked with a frown.
The maid's sister shrugged: "Otherwise? β
With that, she went up the steps of the bath, probed the water with her toes, and slowly stepped in, sitting in the water, exposing only the part above the collarbone.
Of course, I only saw her back just now, and I didn't see the key parts, and the demon is also polite, righteous and shameful, and it is not appropriate to undress easily and show people in front of it, but the matter of bathing together does not seem to be surprising, and the island country does not have this custom?
"Come in." The maid's sister urged.
I nodded, unbuttoned my armor, took off my clothes, and entered the pool water, the temperature of the water was just right, it was very slippery, and the good hot spring water was very comfortable to soak.
At the bottom of the pool, there is a small stone bench, the maid sister asked me to sit on it, she used a towel, washed my hair, rubbed my back, and sure enough, the process is similar to the process in the island action movie, but there is no grinder here, it is estimated that there will not be a "fast forward" after the part, you want to watch.
While taking a bath, I talked to the maid's sister, did not go directly to the topic, but first teased a few sentences, and learned that her name is Re Bu Dulu Maya, and the sister who went to take a bath with Ma Yu is called Re Bu Dulu Ouya, the father of the two sisters is a guard officer in the imperial city, and the mother is a maid in the palace.
Ouya and Maya sisters grew up, the female inherited the mother's business, and also entered the palace as a palace maid, the Yuxu Palace belongs to the royal family, and the palace maid also implements the rotation system, last month, the sisters came to the Yuxu Palace with the guards, their level is very high, and they are the princess's maids in the palace, so they come here, and they are naturally responsible for the daily life of the Xuannu.
After chatting, I began to praise her technique again, it was indeed very comfortable, I said to Maya, if you go to the yang world and work in the bathing center, it must be the top brand, Maya doesn't understand the meaning of the first brand, thought it was a good word, laughed and trembled, and the two you know came out of the water, like two lively jade rabbits in the Moon Palace.
"By the way, what kind of water are you, why are you so slippery?" After complimenting her on her approach, I naturally led the conversation to the water.
"Hot spring water."
"Oh, I thought it was a lake." I laughed.
"Hee-hee, the lake water is blocked from the outside by the enchantment, how can you come in, this is the water from the underground hot spring at the bottom of the lake."
"Is it an underground hot spring?" I asked.
"Well, it's called the Rouge Well, and the water of the entire Jade Void Palace is provided by it, it is said that it is more than just a well, and there is a door in it, I don't understand." Maya said unsuspectingly.
It seems that my deduction is correct, the main portal in the Jade Void Palace is indeed in the well.
"Water supply for thousands of people? The well must be huge, where is it? I asked casually.
"In the backmost hall of the Jade Void Palace, called the Longkou Palace, I haven't entered it, and I'm not allowed to enter." Maya said.
"Oh, that's ......" I nodded, and in a few words, I had already squeezed out her intelligence value, and there was no need to ask anything else.
"Brother Chen Yang, you're a little weird."
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Knowing that Master Xuannu wants to eat you, why aren't you afraid?" Having finished washing, Maya sat across from me and asked with a frown.
"Don't worry, she won't eat me." I laughed.
"Why?"
"You'll know when the time comes." I pretended to be mysterious, in fact, I didn't know, but I always felt that the Xuannu was scaring us, she knew that I was Qin Shuyao's fiancΓ©, and my identity was a colt in the underworld, wouldn't it be better to use me as a hostage to negotiate than to be her food, and the value was higher?
After washing out, they both put on their clothes and went out of the bathhouse, Ma Yu and Ouya were already waiting outside, Ma Yu smiled mysteriously at me, blinked, no need to ask, she also got information from Ouya.
After finding the portal, we can go now, but Maya said that the lake enchantment cannot be opened without the Xuannu, so we still have to do one thing, that is, to kidnap the Xuannu, force her to open the enchantment, and let us out of the Jade Void Palace.
"Now, where are you going to take us?" I asked Maya.
"Lord Xuannu said, please go to the Dragon Whisker Hall and wait." Sister Maya, took me and Ma Yu to another hall, and before I could go in, I smelled the aroma of food, could it be that we were about to cook our ingredients, green onions, coriander, and so on.
Entering the Dragon Whisker Palace, the hall is not big, there is a table of eight immortals, eight dishes on the table, four chairs, the Xuannu sat on a chair in the middle, and said to us with a smile: "Two distinguished guests, please sit down." β
"Hehe, what kind of routine is this, kill when you're full?" I'm kidding.
"Let's have the Last Supper." Ma Yu sneered.
Xuannu got up from her chair and waved her hand, and the Ouya and Maya sisters withdrew, closing the door.
That's good, there are only three of us in the room, it's more convenient for me to hold the Xuannu hostage later, but since she has a banquet, let's eat first and then talk about it, anyway, we're hungry too.
Ma Yu and I glanced at each other, sat down, Xuannu picked up the wine jug, poured us the "wine" of the demon world, a reddish fruit wine, and then, she raised the wine glass herself: "Please." β
Ma Yu didn't move, and I didn't move, I frowned and said, "Lord Xuannu, what kind of play are you playing, eat and drink, and let us eat and understand, okay?" β
Xuannu smiled and put down the wine bottle: "There was some misunderstanding before, when the two of them were bathing, the king of my family sent a letter, saying that the two of them were VIPs of the Qinglong Kingdom, and let me entertain the two, the three princesses of my country, and they will be there soon." β
No wonder there are four chairs at the table, and it turns out that there are guests, the third princess, and the specifications seem to be quite high.
"Please, two." Xuannu raised her glass again, I nodded to Ma Yu, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip.
Eh, don't say it, this wine tastes good, it's a hundred times stronger than the one I drank with Su'er in the Dragon City Hotel last time, it seems that the things in the royal family are still very different from the folk things.
As soon as I drank it all, the Xuannu wanted to pour me wine again.
"My lord, I'll do it myself." I laughed, picked up the flask, refilled the glasses for the two of them, and filled myself again, the glasses were too small, this delicious fruit wine should be drunk in a large bowl to enjoy it.
The location of the portal has been determined, and there is no hurry to do it, since the princess is coming, it must be the king who represents the Qinglong Kingdom, I want to hear it, what do they want to talk to me about, ask for peace? Persuasion? Or do you want to do it?
Ma Yu was under the table and made a gesture of pressing the hilt of the sword on me, she coincided with my thoughts, let's take a look first.
When the princess comes, he naturally can't touch the dishes on the table, so he can only drink first, and I still understand this rule.
Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, I drank it for about five or six minutes, because the two sides temporarily dissolved the "hostile relationship", and the atmosphere of the conversation became harmonious, Xuannu asked us, how did we find the tree hole, which is nothing to hide, I said that after helping the Black Wind Village retreat, I entered the forest, lost my way, and found a hole in order to avoid being attacked by wild beasts, which was purely a coincidence.
"Why, ten years have passed, that Duke Xie, hasn't he come to you yet?" I asked, the Xuannu's cheeks were slightly red, and she seemed to be a little drunk, so she could take the opportunity to collect more information.
"Alas," the Xuannu sighed, drinking the wine from her glass, "the negative person, don't mention it." β
"Negative people?" I poured her a full bottle of wine, "How?" β
"Even if he saw that poem now, he wouldn't come to me, because he had already become a monk eight years ago."
"Monk? Being a monk is not considered a negative person, right? Ma Yu asked.
"Why doesn't it count?" Xuannu frowned, "If you break my body, you will be irresponsible and let go, isn't such a man a negative person?" β
"May I ask where Gong Xie became a monk, and you haven't been looking for him all these years?" I asked tentatively, this is valuable information.
Xuannu shook her head: "After he became a monk, he asked someone to bring me a letter, asking me to cut off the love thread and forget him." β
Xuannu took a sip of wine and continued: "He was a monk in Qingyan Temple in Longma Mountain, I went to look for him, at first, he avoided him, I forced him to die, he was willing to come out, and met with me, his mouth was full of red dust and injustice, purifying all sentient beings, feeling that his heart was already dead......"
"Ask what the world is like, and teach people to live and die." Ma Yu held the wine glass, groaned softly, and after speaking, he glanced at me resentfully.
"What do you want me to do? I didn't say I was going to become a monk, and I didn't say that I was irresponsible to you. I frowned and whispered.
Ma Yu pursed his lips: "People are cutting off the love thread, you are too many emotional threads, and you keep cutting them, and the reason is still messy." β
I didn't pay attention to Ma Yu, she also drank a little too much, and I turned to Xuannu again: "My lord, dare to ask, this Duke Xie, but more than 20 years ago, the impermanent commander of the Yin Cha Mansion of the Underworld who was captured from the Yang Realm, Lord Xie Gongbo?" β
Xuannu was slightly surprised: "How do you know?" β
"I don't know, guess." I laughed.
"I mean, how do you know about those twenty-eight years ago?" Xuannu frowned.
"It was someone else who told me that in that battle of the capital, Duke Xie was arrested by your demon clan in order to protect Song Gongzi in the Song Emperor's Palace, right?"
Xuannu nodded and smiled bitterly: "I caught it." β
"It is rumored in the underworld that Gong Xie was killed by you, but it is not." I said again.
"That's right, the fake news was also spread by me," Xuannu paused, "At that time, the underworld was trying its best to find the whereabouts of the treasures of the Great Qing Emperor's Mausoleum, and all the masters were in the Yang Realm, and their strength was too strong, I didn't dare to say that Gongbo was still alive, if I did, I was worried that they would enter the demon world through the portal and forcibly rob people." β
"The treasure of the Great Qing Emperor's Mausoleum," I was shocked, how could it be related to this matter again.
But I didn't show surprise, and said with a smile, "Imperial Tomb Treasure, I've heard about this, could it be that this Duke Xie is also related to the Imperial Tomb Treasure?" β
