(042) The sincerity of Penglai Wonderland
As soon as Qingluan's words came out, the room suddenly fell into a dead silence, as if everyone didn't expect that there was such a secret hidden in this Yonghui City, and it would even involve poppy, and what was even more strange was that Penglai Fairyland, which had always ignored the affairs of the underworld, sent a handmaiden uncharacteristically this time.
Long Yu was silent, but his brows were already tightened.
This matter, I'm afraid it's not as simple as she said, and he subconsciously feels that this Qingluan may be hiding other more important things.
And poppy, who inexplicably became the biggest beneficiary, was not half excited in her heart at this time, and her mind was full of other things at this time.
She looked coldly at the bronze mask on Qingluan's face, and a chill suddenly appeared in her eyes, could it be that from the beginning, Qingluan deliberately approached her for this reason? What was everything she said before, and what was the life and death before? Could it be that it was just a lie made up from beginning to end to deceive one's trust?
Could it be that the self who regards the other party as the first friend of the Void Underworld is just wishful thinking from beginning to end?
This thought made Poppy sneer in his heart, Poppy, Poppy, you think you are smart, but you didn't expect to be kept in the dark by others like a fool.
At this time, when she looked at Qingluan again, there was a little resentment in her eyes, and she was always a person who didn't know how to hide her emotions.
Maybe it was because she saw what Poppy was thinking, Qingluan coughed slightly, she knew that Poppy had misunderstood something, but now, no matter how much she explained, it seemed meaningless.
But I don't know why, she still can't help but want to explain a few words, and she always feels that deep down, she doesn't want to be misunderstood by Poppy.
Qingluan pondered for a moment before he muttered: "Poppy girl, although you may not believe it anymore when I say this now, but everything before, in fact, I didn't have any deception, including myself, I was also kept in the dark. ”
Poppy snorted coldly, but he didn't want to believe this explanation.
Qingluan said curtly: "Actually, I have always been self-righteous and kept in the dark by the family teacher, if it weren't for the things that the family teacher Qianli told me tonight, I don't know that my every move has always been expected by the family teacher." She paused slightly, and actually threw out another sensational secret: "I think, what has happened and what will happen in Yonghui City may not be accidental, this is simply a fairy game that has been set up by others, you, me, all the people here, maybe all of us here are just a chess piece in the hands of others." ”
Poppy's eyes suddenly dilated, her lips twitched slightly, but she didn't know what she should say at this time, maybe it was Qingluan's assumptions, which were too appalling, and she didn't even know if she should continue to believe her at this time? Is she trustworthy? Who knew what she was saying at this time was not another lie?
"Immortal Bureau? Hehe, it's apt to describe. However, your Penglai Wonderland is unusually going to come to this muddy water, I'm afraid it's not as simple as protecting the secret treasure, don't use that kind of excuse to fool me. Long Yu had figured out a lot of things at this time, no wonder he had always faintly felt that something was wrong before, and always felt that in the dark, there seemed to be some force secretly pushing everything, so the immortal bureau said that it invisibly explained a lot of problems.
It's just that who is the person who set up the bureau? The Empty Naruto? No, he had a hunch that this Empty Naruto Clan might be the same as his own, and he was also a pawn in this immortal game.
However, what he was more concerned about at this time was the attitude of Penglai Wonderland and the intention of this so-called handmaiden: "I'll say it one last time - tell your true purpose." Long Yu said word by word very lightly, but this understatement contained a threat, yes, it was a threat, a naked threat, as if this Qingluan dared to deceive, she would immediately let her head fall to the ground!
"It's the same if you say it a hundred times, the family teacher has concluded that the poppy girl is the destined person who has been waiting for this secret treasure for a thousand years, so let me do my best to help you defend Yonghui City and prevent the secret treasure from falling into the hands of the Kongming clan or other people with good intentions." Qingluan ignored the threat in Long Yu's words and insisted on his original statement.
"In that case, where is the secret treasure?" Wei Xingying, who had been silent before, finally remembered the most critical question, since everyone was here for the secret treasure, where was the secret treasure?
"If I knew, I wouldn't be here, after learning about this before, I have already investigated around Yonghui City, but I didn't find any clues, and even the family teacher didn't tell me, what the secret treasure looks like, no one knows where it is hidden, her old man just told me that this thing is hidden in Yonghui City, and it will reappear when the time comes." Qingluan's refreshing attitude at this time made everyone feel very suspicious, but it didn't seem to be able to find anything wrong, true or false, false or true, anyway, listen to it, as for how many clues you can get from it, it depends on your personal ability.
"So, how are you going to help us? Protect me until the secret treasure appears and recognizes the Lord? Or do you plan to join us in protecting this Yonghui City? Poppy rolled her eyes, but thought of the most critical question, no matter what Qingluan's motives were, at least she said that she wanted to help them, which is a good news, although Qingluan also said before that she wanted to help them, but at this moment, the meaning is completely different, Qingluan at that time was just an ordinary woman who died in the country, and now Poppy knows that Qingluan at this time also represents a more mysterious force --- Penglai Wonderland.
At this juncture when the battle of life and death is about to be made, since there is a helper, poppy is naturally the one who comes.
"The family teacher mentioned in tonight's Qianli Transmission that until the secret treasure appeared, Qingluan obeyed the messenger of the poppy girl in everything." Although Qingluan said this, his tone was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Then what do you mean by coming to see me?" In Long Yu's turquoise eyes, a ghostly light appeared, making people unable to see his deep meaning.
"After all, this Yonghui City is Your Highness's territory, if you don't have the power of Your Highness, even if you try your best to Qingluan, you can't guarantee that this secret treasure will not fall into the hands of traitors."
At this time, everyone finally understood why this Qingluan would tell Long Yu and Wei Xingying who were present such a secret matter, it turned out that she was also helping, she seemed to have already determined that with the relationship between these two people and Poppy, even if she knew the truth, she would not be greedy for that secret treasure.
Long Yu snorted coldly, and reluctantly accepted this explanation, as if he didn't mind his intention to protect Poppy at all.
"In that case, bring out your vote." A smile of unknown meaning suddenly appeared on her face, and she slowly walked in front of Qingluan and said word by word.
As soon as these words came out, Long Yu and Wei Xingying actually looked at each other, when did this girl become so shrewd? In fact, it's not strange that she has always regarded the other party as her true friend before, but at this time, she understands the relationship between herself and her own use and being used, and her attitude is naturally very different from before.
"The family teacher asked me to remind His Highness that it was difficult to prevent thieves. Moreover, this thief will come to the city tomorrow, so that His Highness can prepare in advance. ”
"What!" At this time, Long Yu's complexion finally changed! He seemed to understand the meaning of this sentence in an instant, it is difficult to prevent thieves, is it
His eyelids jumped violently, as if in response to a bad premonition.
That guy, is he really impatient?
Poppy is confused, what kind of thief? Has anyone rebelled? Although I don't know what is going on, looking at the expressions of Long Yu and Wei Xingying at this time, I also know that things seem to be a little wrong.
"However, the family teacher said that what the Kong Ming clan is relying on is nothing more than the Gu poison technique, these unsightly things, in order to express the sincerity of our Penglai Wonderland, the family teacher specially taught me the method of quickly removing the Gu poison technique." Speaking of this, Wei Xingying on the side coughed twice uncomfortably, as if he was afraid that Qingluan would tell his secret together.
Before, because of his insistence, Qingluan only temporarily suppressed the power of the demon Gu for him, but did not completely eradicate the Gu poison, Wei Xingying was a little unwilling at this time, although the imperial doctor said that Uncle Long Yu had already prepared, but he was still not very relieved, and would rather take risks than miss this good opportunity to find out the thief.
Thinking of the imperial doctor, Wei Xingying had another shadow in his heart, although that guy claimed to be His Majesty's person, but he didn't know what his real motives were, and he actually looked fearless, and even told Wei Xingying disapprehantly: "Your Highness already knows my identity, and I can stay in Yonghui City for a long time like this, it's just that Your Highness acquiesces." ”
Although I don't know if what he said is true or not, Wei Xingying still has some gloom in his heart about this person.
Just when Wei Xingying was still hesitating in his heart whether to tell Long Yu about this, he suddenly heard Long Yu's cold voice coming: "Family thief, hmph, come on, let's clean up the portal early!" ”
Wei Xingying's heart was cold, he had already understood who the thief was, and Wei Xingying didn't have much sympathy for that person, but for that person's daughter, Wei Xingying had to ask more, after all, that woman had made too many sacrifices for her uncle: "But, what should Pian Pian do?" Although he knew that this topic was a little embarrassing, Wei Xingying had to ask hard.
As soon as these words came out, Poppy finally understood who the thief was referring to.
Poppy's heart suddenly felt a sadness for the woman called Pianpian, her father and her husband actually wanted to meet each other, such a cruel thing, how to teach her how to face it?
Poppy suddenly felt that she should say something for her.
