Chapter Ninety-Three: Xuannu and Ziyi
Ziyi and the Nine Heavens Xuannu have been looking for more than a year in the territory of the Great Liang Kingdom, and there is no news.
On this day, they came to Heiji Province in the northeast of the Great Liang Kingdom, and as soon as they entered the territory, they heard that there was a monster making waves here. The monster eats people's little dolls with a full moon, and goes in and out of people's homes as if they were in a no-man's land.
The governor of Heiji Province couldn't hold the monster even more when he asked the demon hunters in the sea, and the homes of those who were waiting to give birth were even more gloomy and closed their doors.
It is said that this monster has eaten a thousand and one children, and there are more than 100 monster hunters in his hands, and only two monks with higher mana have escaped with their lives, but they have not even seen the shadow of this monster.
Zi Yi unveiled the reward notice of the official mansion and came to the governor's yamen with the Xuannu.
The governor was a short and fat old man, surnamed Du, and when he saw that the two of them were good-looking, he did not dare to slack off, so he hurriedly arranged for them to stay in the guest room.
The next day, Governor Du prepared a meal and invited him to lunch.
After a toast, Governor Du put down his glass and asked, "I wonder how many helpers the two immortals have brought?" When will those people arrive? ”
Ziyi said: "There is no helper, just me." ”
When Governor Du heard that he was alone, he felt that this was over, and he was sent to death again, and his face instantly became not very good-looking.
The Nine Heavens Xuannu smiled: "Is the master worried? Please put your heart in your stomach, that monster is a hand to catch, my husband is good at catching demons and subduing demons, this goblin is nothing. ”
Old man Du listened to her tone so big, and he couldn't believe it, as the saying goes, the cricket that bites people doesn't scream, this is about to blow the cowhide, even if the appearance is extraordinary, but the clothes are ordinary, and he doesn't bring any magic weapons, saying that he will capture demons and subdue demons, who believes it?
After listening, he stopped making a sound, but drank with his head down.
Ziyi asked, "How often does this goblin come out?" ”
"The first and fifteenth days of the new year."
"How many cases?"
"Not necessarily, sometimes a dozen at a time. Sometimes I find a fragrant mouth and go back. ”
Zi Yi nodded: "Which direction is his cave house about?" ”
The old man stroked his beard and said, "It should be near the Snow Mountain, there were many cases in that place in the early years, and later everyone moved away." Now that demon has cultivated out of the fire, it can come and go freely regardless of distance and distance, so there are dabbles in the whole province. ”
Zi Yi was very satisfied with his answer, bowed his hand to the governor after eating, and went back to the guest room with the Xuannu to rest.
Back in the room, the Xuannu smiled and said, "That old man thinks I'm bragging." ”
Zi Yi also smiled, and sat on the couch and crossed his knees.
During this period of time, the Xuannu was used to him like this, and she didn't say much if she had nothing to do, so she just sat there to regulate her breathing.
It's good to be there for him.
In fact, she didn't have any delusions, her aunt Queen Mother had mentioned their marriage to Xiujie Shangxian, but only Tushan Liangdi's affair happened, and Xiujie Shangxian did not agree.
Later, her aunt called her to Yaohua Palace and said that she was not as reserved and noble as the immortal family, so she fell in front of Xiujie Shangxian, and since then she has no good face for Ziyi's mother and son. But then she had a boil on her tongue, and she didn't know why, so she had to ask Ziyi. Zi Yi gave her a good idea of this unspeakable secret, and her attitude towards him could be regarded as much better.
Seeing his urgency to find a painting, Xuannu already understood in her heart that the woman on the painting was definitely not an ordinary person, and just a portrait made him so depressed.
The woman made up the Yingluo for him, he often took it out and looked at it blankly, and once the Xuannu asked: "Is it the painting that the goddess made for you?" ”
Ziyi nodded.
"You •••••• love her very much, do you?" Xuannu asked cautiously.
Zi Yi nodded again.
"Does she •••••• love you?" The Xuannu's voice became very small.
Ziyi shook his head, and nodded again for a moment: "Love, we love each other very much." ”
The Xuannu was speechless. Can only bless him.
Now she is destined to be with him for nearly two years, which she never dreamed of, and they still pretend to be husband and wife in front of outsiders, and every time she calls him husband, she feels that this life is worth it. She just wants to cherish the happiness in front of her, and it will be a day to be able to accompany him. Even if he doesn't need her one day, then these small moments are enough for her to slowly reminisce.
Xuannu sat at the table and began to draw a picture of the goddess, she was very good at danqing, and the painting was more like that of Ziyi, and she had painted more than a thousand in more than a year.
In the evening, Ziyi went to the snow mountain alone for a turn, and took a closer look before and after, it was really a miracle, there were no caves and houses and other places to hide, and the snow was covered with snow, except for the paw prints of small animals, and no other traces were found.
When I returned to the guest room, I saw that the Xuannu was still painting under the lamp, so I said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
The Xuannu blushed slightly and asked him, "What did you find?" ”
Zi Yi told her one by one, and she smiled, "You must know where it is hiding." ”
Zi Yi nodded and said, "This spirit must be underground, I wanted to dig up that land to ask, but I was afraid of startling the snake." It must be a plant element, and if I'm not mistaken, it should have huge roots, so it can't be found on the ground. And this guy has high mana, likes to eat babies, and has changed without a trace, and no one has ever seen it. It grows on top of the cold snow-capped mountains, and I guess it's a ginseng tree that's been growing for tens of thousands of years. ”
Xuannu nodded: "The hero sees the same thing. It's just how do you take it? ”
Zi Yi said: "I was about to tell you, tonight I will go back to Danxia Mountain to get the Qiankun Geography Bottle, it would be a pity to kill this monster directly, I will collect it and refine it into a Dan and save many lives." ”
The Nine Heavens Xuannu nodded and smiled: "You hurry up, go and come back quickly, tomorrow is fifteen, this monster is afraid that he will come out and harm people at one time, so he will be taken in quickly." ”
Zi Yi turned around and wanted to leave, but turned back to her and said, "Don't paint, rest early." ”
He also wanted to add: "If you paint too much, your eyes can't stand it." "I didn't think about it, I turned around and walked away.
Xuannu stayed there, carefully recalling that sentence, this was the first time he cared about her, and he actually let her rest earlier! If he doesn't have her in his heart at all, why does he let her rest earlier, sleep when he loves, paint when he loves, wake up when he loves to wake up, and love whoever he loves.
Now that he finally cares about her, the emperor lives up to his wishes! Xuannu hurriedly climbed into bed, and she slept very sweetly.
