Chapter 401: Thirty miles east outside the city
It was still early before closing, and when we got to the tavern, we went in, leaving the king and his guards outside.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the woman from last time, who was busy beckoning us to find a place to sit. It looks like she's still the proprietress here.
I didn't have time to go around in circles with her, so I pulled out the resurrection and put it on her neck, and the other ghosts in the store were all scared away when they saw this stance
"Where did Shaoqing go?" I asked coldly.
"I don't know!" She looked at me with pitiful eyes, as if she really had nothing to do with her.
I didn't want to eat this, and continued to ask: "If you don't explain honestly, I will use a knife to practice calligraphy on your face, and then I will see if Shaoqing likes you or not!" ”
As a result, I was so frightened that she sat on the ground and cried, and I looked at the others innocently, and said to myself, have I wronged her? In fact, she is just a little lover of Shaoqing. It's possible not to know, after all, with such a big conspiracy, Shaoqing may not sue her.
Ling Xiao and Na Lanno also looked at me with wide eyes, not knowing what to do, Qianmo and Yujie muttered a few words, shook their heads and sighed behind me. He patted me on the shoulder and motioned for me to step aside, and said very domineeringly, "Let me come." ”
I quickly took the resurrection back and made way for Qianmo, eager to see if she had any good ways to get the woman to speak.
Qianmo stood in place, closed her eyes, and the ghost qi was instantly released, and the woman stood up suddenly, and out of self-protection, she also opened her weak ghost qi. This kind of murderous feeling, I thought it would only appear in a man's battle.
Qianmo's eyes slowly opened, and she didn't move, just relying on her momentum to force the woman into a corner. Then he slowly raised his hand, stretched out a finger, drew a circle on the wall behind the woman, and finally pressed it gently, and a transparent hole immediately appeared in the wall.
"You are up and down, as long as I gently gesture, you can make any shape of hole. Where do you want to start? ”
Naranno was dumbfounded, and Ling Xiao and I nodded at him, indicating that this was not shocking, we had both seen it with our own eyes, and now it was itchy to think about it.
Although the woman was also very scared, she bit her lip and didn't speak, and she didn't think that she was quite interesting to Shaoqing.
At this time, Yujie walked straight towards her, and said in a tone of hatred: "Alas, you are so stupid! Shaoqing won't marry you! All he wanted was the princess alone, and because the princess didn't want to marry him, he kidnapped the princess. You've been fooled! ”
"You are talking nonsense, what Shaoqing wants now is the eyes of the princess, and he said that those eyes can be exchanged for better than being a king"
"Looks like you still know!"
Qianmo didn't say a word this time, and directly gestured on her shoulder with her fingers, the woman saw that she had been exposed, and she was afraid that she would really be poked in her shoulder, so she looked depressed, and she was all recruited. Brother Dongfeng.
"After dinner, Shaoqing smuggled the princess over, and then he said that he wanted to go back to the castle to get something, and before leaving, he gave me a piece of ecstasy incense, and asked me to make the princess unconscious, so I did so. He had just returned, and I had helped him carry the princess through the back door into the carriage. He said he was going to transport it to a farm thirty miles east of the city. ”
After hearing this, Yu Jie thought for a while, nodded at Qianmo, and Qianmo stopped, and warned the woman before turning to leave: "Believe me, you must not want to know what the fate of deceiving us is." ”
These two people are one singing with a white face and the other with a red face, and the cooperation is really seamless, it seems that we men are still easy to be soft-hearted when dealing with this kind of woman who likes to pretend to be pitiful.
The woman was powerless, and we didn't bother to tie her up, so we let her ride on her horse and show us the way.
I walked side with the king, following her closely, and while I was on the way, I asked the king more about Qingxue.
"Your Majesty, since you know that someone will covet Qingxue's abilities, why did you agree to let her go out to play?"
"This matter has to start before she met you, for a period of time, my country was frequently harassed, and I found out that there was an unknown force that became interested in Qing'er's affairs, and I was afraid that the secret of Qing'er's right eye would be discovered by them, and I was very distressed."
"Until one day, a woman came to me, she claimed that she was from the world, and said that she could take Qing'er there to protect her, as long as I promised to allow her to come to the Snow Country to seek refuge in the future when she was desperate. I thought twice about it and agreed to her, and sent Qianmo with me to keep Qing'er safe. ”
"Does the princess know about this?"
The king shook his head, "She thought she was in the world when she was playing in the ghost world, but in fact, this was all arranged by me in advance, she met that woman as soon as she arrived in the world, and the only business trip here was to leave Qianmo in the ghost world." The king sighed.
"Is that woman you're talking about the No. 1 fox fairy?"
The king was surprised when he heard this, "I don't know what No. 1 and No. 2 are, but she is indeed a fox fairy, do you know her?" ”
I said in my heart, "It's more than knowing." "Did the princess tell you that she was locked up in the basement by the fox fairy?"
The king shook his head in shock.
"The fox fairy also lied to Qingxue, saying that as long as Qingxue helped her do three things, she would send Qingxue home, the third of which was to let Qingxue kill me, and we also met at that time."
"How could such a thing happen? Qing'er never told me that she had suffered so many grievances! The king looked distressed and angry, and he sighed again and again: "It seems that the fox is cunning, and what he says is true! I'm stupid to be a father! ”
"You don't have to blame yourself, she did help Qingxue hide for a while, and I didn't bring the princess back to you properly, not to mention that the fox fairy is also dead."
However, the king still frowned, "You saved Qing'er, but I believed the wrong person again!" First the fox fairy, then Shaoqing, if I hadn't trusted them too much, Qing'er wouldn't have encountered today's danger. ”
Although I can understand the king's feelings, there is nothing to comfort him, I just hope that Qingxue can be rescued quickly.
This conversation with the king also gave me the information that Number One had been to the Demon Realm before, which shows that she was definitely not small, and she was very deep in hiding at that time.
This also makes me have another conjecture, that is, the forces of the family immortals and the evil ghost world are somewhat involved, and this involvement must be related to my grandmother and Master Zu, although it is impossible to find No. 1 to ask now, but I must find out all about this.
At this time, we were already out of the city, and we were walking east, and when I saw Yujie, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't had time to give her the folding fan, so I urged Chiyan to take two quick steps to her side.
When I handed the folding fan to Yujie, I told her what the blacksmith had told me about the fan. She stared at the fan for a long time, and when I saw that she didn't speak, I asked her if she didn't like it, and if so, I could go to the blacksmith another day. But she didn't respond to me several times, and she didn't come back to her senses until Red Flame hissed.
Seeing her blank look, probably fascinated by the fan, I asked her again, she smiled and shook her head, "I like it very much, Four Tigers, really, thank you." "I was relieved to hear her say that.
After walking for about ten minutes, a shadow suddenly jumped on the side of the road, the horse ridden by Shaoqing's little lover walked in front and was frightened, she did not move for a long time after falling from the horse, we quickly got off the horse to see, this time we tried our best to wake her up.
Now there is no one to lead the way, but what can I do? Just as we were at our wit's when, the day began to dawn, and the night, which had lasted for nearly a week, was finally over.
It was cloudless, but for some reason scattered snowflakes fell from the sky, and the king frowned slightly, and said to us:
"I think the day the princess was born was also a sunny sky, but there was goose feathers and heavy snow in the sky, so her mother and I named her 'Qingxue'. Now this situation is like yesterday, I don't know what it means! ”
"Princess Jiren has her own natural appearance, and she has been okay after so many hardships, and she will definitely save the day this time." Yujie said firmly, I wish she was telling the truth.
