Chapter 36: Temptation
The Mansion of the Marquis of Jinxi.
The moonlight pierced through the latticework, and the wind seeped in through the cracks in the windows in all directions, whining.
"Qianshan Xue" leaned sideways on the wall, concentrating, listening, there was a strange sound coming from the room next door, and the direction she cared about was Xiao Xuanyu's room.
After dinner, Xiao Xuanyu closed the door and did not allow anyone to disturb him.
There was a slight and strange movement in the room.
"Tuk Tuk", "Qianshan Xue" knocked on the door a few times, and asked, "Is there something wrong with the master?" ”
In the room, Xiao Xuanyu's face was spasmed, cold sweat was dripping, he was holding a porcelain piece in his hand, it was a teacup that had just been crushed due to unbearable pain, and then he sealed the internal force, and crushed the teacup with his bare hands, his palm was dripping with blood, but he didn't realize it.
There were four bones and eight veins in his body, pain all over his body, huge pain hit one after another, and his handsome eyes flashed a touch of scarlet, like a demon from hell who wanted to devour everything.
"This king is fine...... You rest early. ”
Xiao Xuanyu's light and fluttering voice was extremely unstable in tone, but he tried his best to restrain it.
A subtle weird smile flashed at the corner of the mouth of "Qianshan Xue", along the way, she made several moves because the horse was running too fast and missed the opportunity, but in the end she still succeeded, listening to the movement inside, this person should be the time for poison.
"Qianshan Xue" was afraid of long nights and dreams, so she gently pushed the door in, she walked in slowly, a murderous aura flashed in her eyes, and the light in the room was dim and silent.
She was about to walk to his bed, suddenly there was a slight "boom", before she could react, a gust of wind had circled in front of her, enveloping her, an arrow feather gently swept past her ear, she frowned, she was about to move further, a deep whisper came from her ear, "Don't move, otherwise the people outside will feel the movement inside, you and I will die." ”
She looked solemn, slightly stunned, and paused.
Sure enough, the rain of arrows hit like a whirlwind, Xiao Xuanyu struggled to resist, and suddenly an arrow almost hit her, this time she was on fire, and secretly scolded in her heart, a group of things that don't have long eyes, even I dare to shoot?
The movement outside seemed to be shattered by another sound, and it stopped abruptly in an instant.
With a "snap", someone broke into the door, and the person who came was Jin Xihou.
Xiao Xuanyu frowned slightly and sneered, "I thought this king was still in Banyunshe?" ”
Jin Xihou laughed a few times dryly, and said embarrassedly, "Didn't I come in a hurry." ”
"Your Highness, Master Hou, catch a live one."
There was a sudden sound outside, and the three of them hurriedly walked out of the dormitory, only to see a few people in the courtyard holding one person, he was half kneeling, and when he looked at "Qianshan Xue", he trembled, half frightened and half threatening staring at her, "Qianshan Xue" eyes have shown murderous aura, the corners of her lips hooked, and a cold and weird smile like quenched venom, which makes people shudder.
With a flip of her palm, a poisonous needle slid down her sleeve and into her palm, and with a flick of her fingers, the poisonous needle "boomed" towards the man.
At the same time, the man had already expected her to come out with this black hand, his lips opened slightly, he took a sip, and an imperceptible poisonous needle flew out of his mouth, almost in a short moment, she was swept by a figure, the man waved his sleeves, and forcibly blocked the poisonous needle, with "Ah! The man lowered his head, kept his kneeling posture motionless, and the guard stepped forward, took a small step and bowed, "Hey, people are out of breath." ”
Xiao Xuanyu looked at the "Thousand Mountains and Snow", and said indifferently, "I was a target twice before the hour came, which is really worry-free." ”
She lowered her eyes and smiled awkwardly, and the second poisonous needle in her hand was hidden by her without a trace.
But this imperceptible look was seen by Kou Min, who was silent on the side.
Suddenly, Xiao Xuanyu's mouthful of blood spurted out without warning, and everyone panicked, "Your Highness, Your Highness......"
A few steps away, "Qianshan Xue" showed a cold smile, and suddenly looked at Kou Min's suspicious eyes, her expression changed, and she rushed to the crowd in a panic, Kou Min saw it in his eyes, and his doubts were deeper, he gently stopped in front of her, a slight imperceptible force, preventing her from moving forward half a step, she pretended not to know, and made three points of force, breaking the power blocking the front, Kou Min's eyes sank, and looked at her deeply.
After a few tosses, the doctor expelled the poison for Xiao Xuanyu, his face gradually turned normal, "Qianshan Xue" stood aside, waiting for the opportunity, suddenly, she felt that a pair of eyes behind her were sticking to her back, she suddenly turned around, and met Kou Min's sharp eyes.
Kou Min said coldly, "You go down, I'll serve the master." ”
"Qianshan Xue" was about to speak, at this time Xiao Xuanyu suddenly opened his eyes, he slowly looked around, and finally his eyes locked on the body of "Qianshan Xue", he beckoned to her, and said to Kou Min, "You go down, let her serve." ”
"Master......"
"Go down."
Although Xiao Xuanyu was a little weak, his tone was fierce and could not be disobeyed, Kou Min thought about it, although he was suspicious of Qianshan Xue, but there was no substantial evidence, and after hesitating for a moment, he retreated.
He stared at her, and held out his hand to her, and she understood, and slowly came to her, holding his hand and waiting for him to follow.
"Is the Stygian Moon disrespectful to you? Have you been wronged? ”
Her eyes flashed, then she paused again, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly spoke, "Don't worry, master, he has never been disrespectful to me. ”
Xiao Xuanyu stared at her for a moment, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and after a while, he fell asleep.
"Qianshan Xue" maintained a standing posture for a long time, and she called softly, "Master? ”
Immediately after a few more calls, Xiao Xuanyu did not move, still sleeping peacefully, she flashed her eyes, slowly sat on the bed, the palm of her hand turned quickly, a poisonous needle was pinched in the palm of her hand, she did not hesitate to pinch the poisonous needle, stabbed him fiercely, at the moment of the last moment, the person on the bed muttered, "Be careful, don't be a target again......"
She raised her hand and suddenly paused in mid-air, she laughed at herself, she didn't know why she was so hesitant, what was she worried about, was it, it was ridiculous that her usual decisive style was a little shaken by this person, after a while, she slowly withdrew the poisonous needle, stared at him again, and after a long time she left the room.
At the same time as she left, Xiao Xuanyu suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes flashing with a ghostly light, deep and distant.
Two days later, Xiao Xuanyu was in good spirits, leading the "Thousand Mountains and Snow" for a walk, the two of them were one after the other, the distance was not far, but the scenery was pleasant all the way, to the place, Xiao Xuanyu suddenly stopped, changed the way, "Thousand Mountains and Snow" followed, the two of them entered the Plum Blossom Valley, in it, the valley is breezy, the traces are rare, but the plum blossoms are in full bloom, such as the heavy snow pressing the branches noisy and incomparable, the front of the "Thousand Mountains and Snow" picking flowers and smelling the fragrance, and the back of Xiao Xuanyu carelessly appreciating the flowers.
As he walked, the soles of his feet suddenly softened, and he looked down and found that he had stepped on the swamp.
Xiao Xuanyu stood there still, "Qianshan Xue" stretched out his hand to signal him to pull her, he instinctively stretched out his hand, his hand was halfway out, but he froze, his eyes flashed, "Who are you?" ”
Under the plum blossom tree, the atmosphere suddenly froze.
"Master, I'm Shanxue, why did the master say this?"
"A Thousand Mountains and Snow" raised his eyebrows, and the plum blossoms in the forest reflected in his pupils.
"This king asks again, who are you?"
Xiao Xuanyu looked down at her, and his cold eyes never blinked.
"Qianshan Xue" glanced at the mud and covered the surface of his feet, and said with a melancholy face, "I am Shanxue, but how can the master prove it?" ”
"It was my negligence right away that I let you get your hands on it, fly out of your poisonous needle, you still have a chance of life than burying deep in the mud and killing this king."
"The master laughed, why should I kill you?"
She tried to struggle, but found that her body sank faster, and after a while, it didn't reach her knees, she didn't seem to want to die yet, she said softly to Xiao Xuanyu, "The master doesn't need a reason to kill me." ”
Xiao Xuanyu still stood indifferently, although he was only one step away from her, it was out of reach.
The valley breeze is blowing, a few birds are passing by, and the plum blossoms are off the branches and falling.
Xiao Xuanyu almost wanted to turn around, his eyebrows were pale, and he saw that the mud had not reached the chest of "Thousand Mountains and Snow", and the petals were scattered, Xiao Xuanyu withdrew, jumped into the sky above the swamp, swept his hand lightly, picked her up, and landed safely across the swamp.
The brilliance of the petals reflects the eyes of "Thousand Mountains and Snow", and the flowers are white and black, and they are distinct.
It was a very dangerous scene, but it was narrowly avoided.
