All Chapters_Chapter 24 Do You Want to Save Alain?
The night was very deep, and the stars were still shining in the Hall of Stars.
Xiao Kong was lying on the bed, and between the mattress, there seemed to be the temperature left by Alain.
I don't know why, she is always a little uneasy in her heart, and she doesn't know what she is worried about.
Since Yun Ruo can call the door master in order to save Alain, presumably Alain's is very important in Yun Ruo's heart, so even if the door master wants to embarrass Alain, Yun Ruo will not agree, at least Alain's life should be worry-free in a short period of time.
It's just that the night of the red moon is coming, how should she and Alain face their fate?
The night tossed and turned, so that when he woke up in the morning to listen to the priestess give the morning service, Xiao Kong was listless.
She held her forehead with one hand, thinking about the master of the door who fought with her yesterday, and always felt that there was something wrong, but what was wrong, she couldn't think of it for the time being.
As if to see that Xiaokong was a little uneasy, a priestess who was not very old quietly walked to her side and said in a low voice:
"The Holy Maiden is bothered that she didn't kill that Alain yesterday? If it was really because of this incident, the saint could rest assured that after Alain was taken away yesterday, he was imprisoned in a water prison before he could stay overnight, and the door owner sent a message that he would use his blood to open the altar on the day of the red moon. ”
With a snap, Xiao Kong's bamboo slip with a lot of scriptures in his hand fell to the ground.
How so? Doesn't that make sense?
"Holy Maiden? What happened to you? ”
Seeing that Xiaokong's face turned pale in an instant, the priestess who had just spoken was frightened, for fear that she had said something wrong and made the Holy Maiden unhappy, but she didn't dare to be too loud, just whispered in Xiaokong's ear just like just now.
"I'm fine, what the master of the door has done is very much in line with my heart, but there is one thing I don't understand, the Blood Altar is the holy place of the Gate, doesn't it mean that only I can step into it? Why do you need a man's blood? ”
Xiaokong knew that she should have lost her temper just now, but she still picked up the bamboo slip quietly, and continued without raising her eyes.
"The holy woman doesn't know that the blood altar is spiritual, and it can only be awakened with the blood of a living person, otherwise the furnace used for alchemy will not be lit." At this point, the priestess covered her mouth, and this time, her eyes were at last full of horror and fear.
"The furnace of alchemy?"
Xiao Kong repeated these words, and saw that the priestess's forehead began to sweat.
"Hehe, you just said that you can't refine my furnace, what kind of pill are you refining, it's okay, I know everything."
Where is she still in the mood to think about how she will die, what she is thinking about now is how to meet Alain, how to rescue him.
Helplessly, although she is a saint, her movements are subject to many restrictions.
After the long morning class in a distraught mood, Xiaokong said that he wanted to go outside to breathe, and the old priests did not stop him as usual, but no matter where he went, at least ten priests followed him.
Since the return of the Holy Maiden, the popularity of the Shadow Killing Gate has been even less.
I don't know if everyone is afraid of this holy woman, or because of something else, anyway, the feeling to Xiaokong is that even if they see people, after those people salute from a distance, they will quickly dodge, which leads to Xiaokong not even having anyone to talk to in the shadow killing gate, let alone finding someone to help save Alain.
After turning around a few times in front of the main hall, Xiaokong's face became worse and worse, but at this time, a heroic woman figure appeared in her eyes, the woman was wearing a black light helmet, a short knife and a scimitar hung behind her waist, and her long black ponytail hair fluttered gently with the wind.
It's the Cloud Messenger!
Xiao Kong seemed to see hope, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.
When he was in the tower with Alain the night before, Alain inadvertently mentioned that his relationship with the Cloud Envoy was good, and he wondered if the Cloud Envoy would help her.
Just like a chance encounter, the seemingly casual Xiaokong went on a front with the cloud envoy.
The cloud envoy knew that he couldn't hide, and when he saw Xiaokong walking straight towards him, he knelt down directly.
"Cloud envoy, see the Holy Maiden."
Originally, Xiaokong wanted to go to the cloud envoy's side, but when the cloud envoy knelt, she could only stop.
"Ah Yun, you don't need to be so polite to see me."
This Ah Yun, the cloud envoy called was full of spirits, she raised her head in confusion, and a pair of clever Danfeng eyes were all incomprehensible.
"Ah Yun and I have known each other since childhood, let's two sisters and catch up on the old days."
After saying this, Xiao Kong walked directly to the cloud envoy, leaned over and grabbed the cloud envoy's hand, pulled her and walked towards the empty martial arts arena in front of her.
This move is really a bit unexpected, those priestesses looked at the saintess and the cloud envoy who were going farther and farther away, and they didn't follow, they didn't follow, they just hesitated, they had missed the best time, if they followed now, maybe they would offend the cloud envoy, in the shadow killing gate, don't easily provoke people, one is the leader in the killer Alan Alan, and the other is the cloud envoy who is in charge of the entire defense of the shadow killing gate.
At this time, the cloud envoy's face was also very bad, and the fact that Alan was imprisoned in the water prison had already made him a little anxious, and the saint who had punished Alan was now close to her, and for a while, she was really a little upset.
Finally, the two of them walked to a very open place, and when they looked over, the closest person to them was also far away, because the view here was wide, so it was impossible to be overheard talking here.
"Holy Maiden, ...... you"
As soon as the cloud envoy spoke, Xiao Kong interrupted her with a look.
"Ah Yun, I don't have much time, so I'll make a long story short." In fact, Xiaokong still has scruples, but at this time, she can only gamble. "Do you want to save Alain?"
There wasn't even a foreshadowing, Xiaokong made it straightforward, she had already thought about it, if the cloud envoy asked her why she wanted to save Alain, she would say that she fell in love with Alain at first sight, and it was a pity to watch him die like this. As for whether the cloud envoy believes it or not, Xiaokong can't care so much, no matter what the reason is, as long as the cloud envoy understands that she really wants to save Alain.
But after waiting for a long time, the cloud envoy didn't speak, let alone ask the question that Xiaokong thought she would ask.
"Ayun? You? ”
"Why? Why do you think I'm going to want to save Alain? ”
“……”
The sudden question made Xiaokong stunned for a moment, she looked at the cloud envoy with a serious face, and her expression unconsciously sank.
"I, guess."
"Guess?"
A guess immediately made the cloud envoy see that the saintess in front of her was definitely lying, but why did she tell this lie!
At the beginning, she wanted to punish Alain and put Alain in the Hall of Stars, but now, she is the one who wants to save Alain, what does she want to do by doing this? Is it to test your loyalty to the Shadow Killer Gate?
No, it's not necessary at all, what's more, this holy woman who knows that she is coming back to send her to death doesn't necessarily have much loyalty to the Shadow Killing Gate, is it, she and Alain?
Suddenly, the cloud made Xiaokong's eyes change, how could this be? How could the two of them have known each other in advance......
Thinking of this, the cloud envoy seemed to understand something at once.
"You, you and Alain? He found you, didn't he, you two knew each other before you came back? Oh, no wonder, he will be imprisoned in the Hall of Stars by you for no reason, and he can still come out alive. ”
In a hurry, Yun Envoy said all the conclusions in her heart, and after speaking, she regretted it a little, but with her fierce temperament, she did not show the slightest cowardice.
"Me." Xiaokong bit her lower lip lightly, her eyebrows twisted slightly, and she hesitated for a moment, but she finally raised her bet again. "Yes, you're right, I did know him beforehand, and I don't have time to talk about the reason now, Ah Yun, or that sentence, do you want to save him?"
This time it was the cloud envoy's turn to be silent, should she believe this cursed child? She didn't even know the details of this saint now, and how she was going to make a decision.
Turning around, the cloud envoy looked at the white-clothed priestesses in the distance, and after a moment, he had already made a decision in his heart.
"Do you want to meet him? I can take you. ”
"Really? Can I go see him? ”
Of course, Xiaokong wanted to go and see Alain, but she didn't have a chance or a reason, and it would be great if the Cloud Envoy could take her.
"Yes, as for what you said, let's think about it in the long run."
Actually, what the cloud envoy thinks is that he still has to confirm with Alain.
What kind of place is the Shadow Killing Gate, it is an absolutely terrifying place where killers gather, even if she can be in charge of all the defenses of the Shadow Killing Gate, but the guards in the water dungeon are all personally led by the door master, plus the Thunder Envoy and his minions, it is simply unrealistic to take Alan away blatantly.
But if on the day of the blood moon, when the whole gate participates in the sacrifice, there is a chance.
But the premise is that there can be no mistakes in this matter.
What's more, the Holy Maiden also wants to save Alain now, which can be regarded as an extra chance of victory.
"Holy Maiden, please."
Without saying anything more, the cloud envoy leaned over and made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Kong.
Xiaokong also took a breath, raised his head, and followed behind the cloud envoy with a proud face, those priestesses who were far away saw that the holy woman was going to leave with the cloud envoy, and they didn't care about offending the cloud envoy, they all chased after them quickly, but they only chased after them, but they didn't interfere.
It wasn't until the Holy Maiden and the Cloud Envoy walked through the gates of the water dungeon together that the priestesses felt that something was wrong, but they never had a chance to stop it.
If the most terrifying place in the Shadow Killing Gate is the Star Hall in the tower, then the next place should be this water prison.
It's just that the horror of the Star Hall is fake, but the horror of the water dungeon is real.
