"Really? You don't even know me, do you believe me? Mu Qing was surprised that she had misheard.

Xia Yuanshan nodded, not like lying: "I made the puppet, you are in it, I can know your thoughts and feelings." ”

"So what should I do?" In extreme helplessness and confusion, Mu Qing was like grabbing a life-saving straw.

"You be my puppet, I will help you cultivate, one day, you will no longer need me, and you will no longer need this puppet, at that time, you will not be afraid of anything, you can go to Qingzheng Hall by yourself, return what should be paid back to them, and explain everything that should be said clearly, and they can't do anything to you." Xia Yuanshan's proposal is a good idea.

Mu Qing was still confused, and her head hurt as if there was a drill hole in her head.

Xia Yuanshan coughed lightly twice and did not make another sound.

At this time, there was dirt falling from the roof of the cave.

Xia Yuanshan was startled and raised his hand to extinguish the lantern.

"Master Xia, it's been almost two hours, are you okay?" A voice came from overhead, very soft, but unusually clear.

Mu Qing was startled, nervous to death, while all the discomfort slowly intensified, she always felt that there was something she should have thought of, but she didn't think of it.

Xia Yuanshan covered Mu Qing's mouth, and in the dark, he clinged to the cave wall, moving in a certain direction little by little.

A few seconds later, there was a "boom", and the roof of the cave collapsed, and a man fell along with the dust and the air that smelled of rotting leaves.

"Master Xia, let's go, the boat has been waiting for a long time." It's white brocade.

Xia Yuanshan didn't make a sound, moved more slowly and more carefully.

"When I was a child, I often heard my father say that there are witch masters and puppeteers in the twilight country of Shao Dezhou, and their skills in controlling insects and beasts are very good, so it's best not to provoke them if you encounter them." Bai Jin said leisurely, gossiping as if it were commonplace, "I always thought that it was just adults scaring children, but I didn't expect to see Master Xia today to know that what my father said was right." ”

Xia Yuanshan still didn't make a sound at all, and he didn't know where he was going, and he was already some distance away from Bai Jin.

After a few seconds, just when Mu Qing thought that she had gotten rid of Bai Jin, the surrounding area suddenly became snowy.

Bai Jin's right hand was raised slightly, and the lantern he was holding floated into the air.

"Master Xia, the direction you are going has been blocked by me." She said, "It's a small place, but don't summon bees, the bee fire spreads too fast, you can light anything you touch, and you can't run away." ”

It turned out that the fire in the yard was set by Xia Yuanshan. Mu Qing was a little stunned for a while.

"If I hadn't summoned the bees and didn't run away just now, would there be good fruit to eat in your hands?" Xia Yuanshan Station settled.

"If you take what does not belong to you, you will not have good fruit to eat wherever you go." Bai Jin pointed at Mu Qing.

"I'm not trying to take it by force, I'm ......," Xia Yuanshan was busy explaining.

Bai Jin interrupted him: "What everyone wants, why don't you want it?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Mu Qingmao suddenly opened.

Xia Yuanshan just said that this puppet is a "terrible baby", in that case, why doesn't he want it? He wants Mu Qing to be his puppet and help with cultivation, is it also to get this puppet? If it is indeed for such a purpose, will it be harmful to Mu Qing as a puppet? Even, will it be life-threatening?

These are all things that should be thought of.

"I don't want it." Xia Yuanshan replied categorically, "First, I have been abolished for hundreds of years of cultivation, and I can't unlock the seal inside; Second, this is a demon thing, who knows what else they did when they were put in. ”

Bai Jin was silent, and he was suspicious.

Xia Yuanshan continued: "Besides, this thing has always been just a legend, and I believe that even His Majesty the Northern King has not really seen it. I'm an exiled criminal, not one of those powerful characters, who just wants my wife to live peacefully, but I don't want to risk my life because of nothing. ”

Bai Jin tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Since you don't want to forcibly occupy it, why not go back with me?" By the way, you can also see the scenery of the northern country and relax. ”

Xia Yuanshan smiled bitterly: "No, I have good intentions, and I will be exempted from going to the northern country - you will try all kinds of ways to ask me to return the puppet completely, but I really can't do it." ”

"That's it......" Bai Jin put his hands around his chest, "Okay, then I'll wait and see what happens to you in a while." ”

Xia Yuanshan frowned slightly, his expression was complicated, he looked at Bai Jin, and looked at Mu Qing.

Bai Jin always stared at Xia Yuanshan with a smile or not.

The two were silent for a moment, and Xia Yuanshan spoke: "Your Highness, there is still someone in the puppet." ”

Bai Jin said "um", indicating that he knew this very well.

"I don't have the ability to hand over the doll, and I can still keep her from dying." Xia Yuanshan seemed to emphasize.

Bai Jin glanced at Mu Qing and said "um" again.

"Excuse me, is there anyone in your country who can save her?" Xia Yuanshan observed Bai Jin's expression.

"Save her?" Bai Jin seemed to have heard some joke, "Why do you want to save her?" Who is she? ”

"Nobody, I think, just a warm ordinary person." Xia Yuanshan also looked at Mu Qing.

Bai Jin stopped talking.

Mu Qing heard the conversation between the two clearly. Originally, she was relieved in her heart, and there was no doubt about it, but now, seeing Bai Jin's obvious disdain, she couldn't help but worry again, thinking that Xia Yuanshan was really not wrong, if she followed this woman surnamed Bai, she would definitely be more than lucky, and it was difficult to guarantee whether she would live until sunrise.

There was another silence, and Bai Jin's expression remained unchanged.

Xia Yuanshan's fingers brushed over Mu Qing's face and began to mumble to himself.

"Mu Qing is based on the soul alliance, recognizes Xia Yuanshan as the mainstay, and is subject to his soul, and he is a puppet from the beginning." It's what he said before.

"What?" Bai Jin was quite keen, and his face instantly became gloomy.

Mu Qing didn't repeat, and she had mixed feelings in her heart.

At this time, Bai Jin had already appeared in front of Xia Yuanshan, turned his palm into a knife, and slashed straight at one side of his neck.

Xia Yuanshan didn't hide, but lifted Mu Qing up.

Seeing this, Bai Jin hurriedly stopped.

The sesame-like little ants reappeared, a dense layer, which made Mu Qing's dress change color, from red to black.

Bai Jin's face became more and more ugly.

"Mu Qing is based on the soul alliance, recognizes Xia Yuanshan as the mainstay, and is subject to his soul, and he is a puppet from the beginning." Xia Yuanshan maintained his posture and said it a second time in a low voice.

Mu Qing still didn't make a sound.

Bai Jin saw the clue and wanted to step forward, but he was afraid that he would break the puppet by mistake, and he was also afraid of the highly poisonous ant.

Xia Yuanshan said over and over again, speaking faster and faster, and his hands trembled slightly.

Mu Qing's pain spread all over her body, and the scorching heat appeared again, only this time, she was very awake.

All the previous experiences flashed in front of my eyes. Where is this? How did you get here? Who are these people? She didn't know, and she didn't want to dwell on it anymore. The immobile body trapped her, no different from being in prison, if everyone is for a puppet, regardless of her life or death, then she must not sit still, to cultivate, she must become an adult again.

"Mu Qing swears by her soul......" She finally spoke, her voice hoarse and weak, but it was a good word.

Bai Jin was both shocked and panicked, he couldn't care so much anymore, and rushed straight to Xia Yuanshan.

Xia Yuanshan showed a smile and wiped his hand on Mu Qing's body.

"Recognize Xia Yuanshan as the main ......" Mu Qing's eyes were dark, and she couldn't see anything.

Xia Yuanshan's hands were full of ants, and these ants could actually fly, they flapped their transparent wings, gathered together in mid-air, and went towards Bai Jin.

"Subject to its ...... Soul ......" Once she made up her mind, Mu Qing had a matter on her mind, and a sense of exhaustion came like a tide.

"Beginning as a puppet." Xia Yuanshan was a little anxious, and he also hoarsely voiced, wanting Mu Qing to finish as soon as possible.

The pain has reached its limit, like a sharp blade swimming through the body, separating the skin from the muscles little by little. Xia Yuanshan's voice kept echoing in his ears, near and far. Mu Qing's mouth was dry, and the hair in her throat was tingling and itchy, and she couldn't say anything about this last sentence.

Xia Yuanshan commanded Xuan Ant to resist and attack left and right, his forehead was full of sweat, I don't know if he felt Mu Qing's pain or was anxious.

"The beginning...... For...... Puppet...... Puppet! After some struggle, finally, Mu Qing finished the last sentence with difficulty.
