Chapter 17: The Demon King and the Demon Messenger
"Okay, I'm still crying when I'm old, isn't there a shame?" Zhao'er pinched its little nose and said, "Don't you always say that you are much older than me, so you can set an example for me." I warn you, if you cry again, I will cry too. ”
Fei Hong laughed angrily at her, choked up and held back his tears.
"Alright, you two masters and servants go back and talk slowly. I'm tired after a day of tossing, so let's go down. Snake Ji said with a smile.
Xiao Zhao'er responded happily and ran briskly with Feihong's footsteps.
Snake Ji really relieved Xiao Zhao'er this time, no longer sent someone to monitor her, and arranged a private room for her.
Back at his new residence, Fei Hong couldn't wait to ask Zhao'er what happened during this time, and heard that she was almost killed by the snake queen and the corpse demon, Fei Hong clenched his fists angrily, "It's too much, when we return to the Heavenly Palace, we must play the Emperor of Heaven and avenge the princess!" He said with some trepidation, "Fortunately, princess, you are smart, otherwise we would have been in a different place by now." Speaking of which, we are also unlucky enough, and we were actually dragged into the infighting of the demons. ”
"Who said it wasn't, you said that I am a princess of the Celestial Clan, a dignified moon god, and I actually came here to play these conspiracy tricks and intrigue with them. Tsk, when I think about it, I feel ashamed of the teachings of the Queen Mother and the sages I read. Xiao Zhao'er said while swallowing melon seeds.
Fei Hong nodded, agreed, and comforted her, "Fortunately, princess, you haven't read a few sage books, and you often sleep in class, and the queen mother's teachings are also in the left ear and out of the right ear." So now, I'm not too sorry for them. ”
Xiao Zhao'er casually picked up a handful of melon seed skins and threw them at it, "Please leave my sight in a mellow way immediately." ”
Fei Hong shook the feathers on his body, and rushed out to take a shower with a whoa.
Xiao Zhao'er continued to swallow the melon seeds calmly, looked at the back of the stupid bird who only had a habit of cleanliness, and spit out the melon seed skin again.
Early the next morning, Xiao Zhao'er took the token given by the snake queen, took Feihong out of the demon palace, and drove towards the demon world in a cloud car.
The Demon Realm is vast, and even if Xiao Zhao'er and the others were riding the fastest cloud car, it took half a day to reach the Demon Realm.
Compared to the prison realm of the demon headquarters, the demon world has a different scenery. As far as the eye can see, the sky is full of fragrant and gorgeous double-petaled cherry blossoms, and the edge of the grass is full of blood-red tulip, and a gust of wind blows, setting off a sea of fragrant waves, refreshing people's hearts.
There are not many residents of the demon world, but because of the large area occupied, it seems that it is inevitably a little sparsely populated and not prosperous enough. Fortunately, there are flowers along the way, but it is not boring.
When I arrived at the Demon King's residence, it was noon. The little demon in the Demon King's Mansion told Zhao'er that the Demon King was taking a lunch break and it was inconvenient to meet guests. Zhao'er generously said that it didn't matter, they could eat in the front hall while waiting for the demon king to wake up.
The corners of the little demon's mouth twitched, probably I had never seen such a cheeky person who came up directly to eat, and after thinking about it, I felt that I was a guest from afar, and I couldn't lose the hospitality of the Demon King's Mansion, so I still ordered the kitchen to prepare food for Zhao'er.
After Zhao'er and the others finished eating, the demon king Hei Zheng finally walked out slowly and leisurely with the support of the maid.
"Slave Xiao Zhao'er, on the order of Mrs. Snake Ji, came to greet the Demon King. I wish you all the best of luck. Xiao Zhao'er stood up and saluted.
"Well, well, thank you Lady Snake Ji for your kindness," Hei Zheng smiled, "I'm really embarrassed that this king had a lunch break just now, and I bothered your envoy to wait." ”
"Where are the adults, it's a bad luck that Zhao'er came, but fortunately it didn't disturb the adults to rest, otherwise Zhao'er would not have gotten going." Xiao Zhao'er also replied with a smile.
"Hehe, it's worthy of being brought out by Mrs. Snake Queen, it's really clever." Hei Zheng stroked his long beard and smiled, "I don't know what else is going on when your envoy comes this time?" ”
"To tell you the truth, my lord sent a message to our wife a few days ago, and she was very pleased. Madame also said that she grew up listening to the great achievements of the Demon King, and she respects and worships you very much, and it is really her luck to be able to cooperate with the adults this time. Xiao Zhao'er said, "I just don't know, what are your plans now?" If there is a place where we can be used, please do not hesitate to ask, and my wife will definitely cooperate. ”
"Madame is too polite, but speaking of plans, the old man does have some ideas now, and there are some places that need Madame's cooperation. I don't know when I can arrange for my wife to meet with this king, and some things are better to say in person. Hei Zheng said.
"The slave understands, I will send a message to Madame as soon as possible, arrange for you to meet, and inform you when the time and place come, I don't know what you think?" Xiao Zhao'er said.
"That's good, then I'll wait for news from your envoy."
Coming out of the Demon King's Mansion and stepping on the cloud car on the return journey, Feihong got out of Zhao'er's pocket and said, "This Demon King can't trust us?" I have to talk to Snake Ji in person, so let's run this trip in vain. ”
"I had guessed that this would be the case, the demon king was very suspicious, and I didn't expect him to tell us his plan. The purpose of our visit this time is just to confirm that he really wants to cooperate with the snake queen. Now the goal has been achieved, and I have seen the beautiful scenery of the demon world and eaten the food of the demon world, in short, this trip is not in vain. Xiao Zhao'er lazily lay on the cloud car and stretched, and said.
"That's right." Fei Hong thought about it for a while, and then smiled, "Princess, you are a three-sided agent now, you feel so cool when you think about it." ”
Xiao Zhao'er grimaced at it, "What's cool, it's a lot of brains." It feels like I've only been in the Demon Realm for a few months, and all my brain cells have died. ”
"Haha, whoever made the princess never have to study before, she was too lazy to use her brain, and she had to pay it back when she came out to mix. Besides, it's not good to save too many brain cells, and a proper death batch is good for physical and mental health. Fei Hong gave her a grimace and said with a smile.
"I think you've been looking for a fight lately." Xiao Zhao'er said, getting up to hit it, Feihong giggled and flew back and forth to hide, and Zhao'er chased after it to hit it. The two of them were having fun when suddenly a black feather arrow flew out of nowhere, hitting the steering wheel of the cloud car. The cloud cart suddenly lost control and slammed into a nearby high mountain.
"Ahh Fei Hong screamed while flapping his wings, but still reacted quickly, pulled it off the cloud cart, and landed on a cloud next to him with a few somersaults.
"Who? Come out. Zhao'er looked around and said coldly.
"Hehe, the little girl is good." A black-robed cow-faced man walked out, holding a black bow with blood spots in his hand.
Xiao Zhao'er frowned and looked at him, "Who are you?" Why sneak up on us? ”
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is who you are?" The black-robed man let out an eerie laugh and stretched out his bull's tongue to lick his bow, "Little girl, do you know what kind of bow this bow is?" ”
Xiao Zhao'er also felt that his bow was very familiar just now, as if she had seen it somewhere. Suddenly, I heard Fei Hong exclaim, "This one, could it be the Spirit Bow?" ”
Xiao Zhao'er was also taken aback, and then she remembered.
That's right, this is one of the holy treasures of the demon world that I learned when I was in school before, and it can recognize people's hidden spiritual veins. Then, this person should be the Demon King's trusted envoy, the Bull Head Demon.
"Lord Demon King is worried that you are not from the snake queen, so he ordered me to follow along. Originally, the purpose of sacrificing the Spirit Bow was to see what kind of spirit vein you were pregnant with and which side of the person you were carrying. But I never expected that I would see seven spiritual veins! Hehe, I have lived for tens of thousands of years, and I have only heard of one such person who is still alive. The bull-headed demon looked at Xiao Zhao'er directly, his eyes radiating the light of greed and plunder, "It's really a blessing to meet the princess of the Heavenly Clan, Lord Luna here, and the little demon." ”
"Princess, what should I do?" Feihong nervously pulled the corner of Zhao'er's clothes and said, "We can't beat him, let's run." ”
"Run?" Zhao'er calmed down and said, "I'm afraid it's too late." ”
