Chapter Twenty-Nine: Coldness by Nature

Zhao'er frowned at him, "Where did you hear the fallacies?" ”

"Benjun is very knowledgeable, and these are naturally not a problem." Hanchen said narcissistically without blushing.

"But someone told me that cinnabar is the most spiritual thing in the world, and the clothes, toys and accessories I used to wear when I was a child were either made of cinnabar or inlaid with cinnabar." Xiao Zhao'er thought of that person, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and said with her head down.

"That person is a knowledgeable person, to put it mildly, cinnabar is indeed the most attractive to gather spirit yuan, but," Han Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly, "It often gathers bright spirit yuan and golden spirit yuan, some people in the god clan and the dragon clan will use cinnabar to cultivate, but you are obviously a human race, what do you use cinnabar for?" ”

Looking at his suspicious gaze, Xiao Zhao'er was secretly shocked in her heart.

Maybe I had too much fun tonight, and I actually relaxed my vigilance and almost exposed my identity!

Xiao Zhao'er pretended not to care and said, "Oh, is it? Hey, my rich landlord father just thinks cinnabar is very foreign, so he always uses cinnabar for me. But then again, I used so much cinnabar, it stands to reason that I should have accumulated a lot of light spirit yuan, why didn't I become an immortal after I died, but instead entered the demon race? ”

Hanchen put away his doubtful eyes and chuckled, "Maybe you've done too many bad things." ”

Xiao Zhao'er glanced back at him, "In this way, as the Lord of the Demon Realm, aren't you the worst villain in the Five Realms." ”

Hanchen couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Where, I'm not the worst." This honor has always been my goal, but I am still ashamed to take it. ”

Xiao Zhao'er looked at him with disdain, "I'm not ashamed, but proud." ”

Hanchen smiled slightly, "In this world, there are many things that have no standard, maybe if they are extremely bad, they will become a good person." ”

Xiao Zhao'er looked at him and shook her head and said, "I can't understand your logic. ”

Hanchen reached out and touched her little head, "You'll understand when you grow up." ”

Xiao Zhao'er shook his hand away in disgust.

As the sky darkened, the crescent moon on the treetops was drowned in dark clouds, and the stars hid in the clouds, and the brilliant fireworks were particularly dazzling.

In the distance, the fragrance of green epiphany wafted in, and the sound of laughter and singing filled my ears.

Xiao Zhao'er sat on the cloud car that went back and said to Hanchen, "Actually, the demon world is also quite good. ”

Hanchen looked at her and smiled, "Then you can stay here." ”

Xiao Zhao'er looked up at the moon, smiled slightly, and did not speak.

After going back, Xiao Zhao'er still lived her own little life, Hanchen was very indulgent to her, no matter how out of the ordinary things she did, he just laughed it off.

The days of the Demon Palace are slowly flowing like flowing water, these days, Xiao Zhao'er has also asked about Yuejue on the side, but Hanchen is too smart and alert, she is afraid of revealing flaws, and she has never stopped at the point. But after so many days without any gain, Xiao Zhao'er couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

On this day, when she refilled the tea in the Hanchen cup, she suddenly remembered someone.

"I don't know how Mu Mo is managing the demon world now?" Xiao Zhao'er poured the tea, brought it to Hanchen, and asked casually.

Hanchen replied while reviewing the folds, "By Benjun's side, you still dare to think about other men?" ”

“…… Demon Venerable's associative ability is always so rich," Xiao Zhao'er twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "It's just that I suddenly remembered Mo'er, and I just asked casually." When Mu Mo took Mo'er away, I didn't have time to say goodbye to her, after so many days, I really missed her. ”

Hanchen glanced up at her and said with a smile, "Then how about I take you to visit her?" ”

Xiao Zhao'er raised her eyebrows and said, "Really? ”

"When did I lie to you?"

Xiao Zhao'er pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice, "I'm embarrassed to ask when?" You fool me every day. ”

Hanchen looked at her with a smile, "What did you say?" ”

"It's nothing," Xiao Zhao'er immediately denied.

Hanchen was very satisfied with her attitude, and said while continuing to watch the twists and turns, "Mu Mo is very capable, plus with that little princess as a puppet, he has basically controlled most of the forces in the demon world now. In a few days, it will be the enthronement ceremony of the new demon king, and I will naturally attend as a demon venerable, and when the time comes, you will go with me. ”

"Hmm." Xiao Zhao'er made a small calculation in her heart, and responded obediently.

By the time Hanchen had finished processing the last few pieces, the night had already darkened.

"By the way, I suddenly remembered something." Hanchen changed into civilian clothes, sat at the table and drank tea, and said, "This morning, the people from the ghost prison came to report that Snake Ji is crazy. ”

Xiao Zhao'er was taken aback, thinking of the woman who was once extremely charming and arrogant, and couldn't help blurting out, "How can this be?" ”

"I don't know, maybe I've been stimulated too much lately, I can't bear it." Hanchen said lightly while drinking tea.

I don't know why, Xiao Zhao'er actually felt a little cold for Snake Ji, and said, "She was also your woman anyway, and now that she has become like this, do you really have no pity for her?" ”

"It's because she's too extreme, and I don't have any reliable relationship with her. Now that she has come to this point, it can be regarded as her self-destruction, without that ability but with undeserved ambitions, even if it is not me, others will clean her up. Hanchen said, "If it weren't for your intercession, she wouldn't have lived until now." ”

"You're really cold-natured." Xiao Zhao'er said.

Hanchen hooked the corners of his mouth lightly, "Maybe." ”

The candles in the glass lamps on the table burst open, making a soft sound. Xiao Zhao'er said softly, "I want to go and see her." ”

Hanchen didn't stop him, but just advised, "She's delirious now, don't get too close to her, lest she go crazy and hurt you." ”

Xiao Zhao'er nodded.

On the second day, the ghost prison.

With the golden order given by Hanchen, Xiao Zhao'er can now pass everywhere unimpeded. The jailer led Xiao Zhao'er to a cell in the depths of the ghost prison.

Before they arrived, in the distance, they heard a woman's laughter, which was hoarse and low, echoing in the dark corridor, becoming more and more frightening.

Snake Queen, dressed in a shabby and fat prison uniform, sat against the wall, laughing and fiddling with a few stones.

In just a few days, the once enchanting Lady Snake Queen turned into this skinny and withered madwoman in front of her.

Xiao Zhao'er sighed secretly, took a few steps forward, looked at her through the railing, and said softly, "Madam, Zhao'er has come to see you." ”

As if she hadn't heard, Snake Ji just lowered her head and played with the stones, covering a stone with each hand, and said in her mouth, "Choose big or small, big or small?" ”

The jailer was about to scold, but Xiao Zhao'er waved his hand to stop him and let him retreat.

She crouched down, looked at her hand, and said, "Then I'll pick the big one." ”

Snake Ji snorted and laughed, let go of her left hand and said, "It's a pity, it's small." ”

Xiao Zhao'er also smiled, "It's true, I lost this time." ”

Snake Ji finally raised her head and looked at her, looking at her for a while, her expression was slightly confused, "Are you Xiao Zhao'er?" ”

"Yes, Madame still remembers me." Xiao Zhao'er smiled.

"What are you doing here?" Unexpectedly, Snake Ji actually asked calmly.

"I heard from the jailer that Madame has not been in good spirits lately, so I want to come and see you."

"Look at me? Did you come to see me dead? Snake Ji smiled mockingly, "Okay, don't cry and fake mercy, tell me what you want to do." ”

"I want to persuade Madame, don't spoil yourself anymore." Xiao Zhao'er said slowly, "The struggle for power is already tragic, and it is already a great fortune to survive after such a thing, why doesn't Mrs. cherish herself and have to get along with herself?" ”

"Look at me now," Snake Ji said in a self-deprecating sorrowful voice, spreading her arms, "what is the difference between being alive and dead?" ”

"As long as you live, there is hope, and maybe one day, you will be able to regain your freedom."

Snake Ji snorted coldly, "How is it possible, as long as Hanchen is still a Demon Venerable, I can only be imprisoned here forever." ”

"What if I promise to get you out?" Xiao Zhaoer said.

Snake Ji looked at her suspiciously, "Why did you want to save me out?" ”

Xiao Zhao'er chuckled, "You just think I have a conscience." ”
