Chapter 200: The Road of Desire

Li He was silent for a while, and said slowly: "Yes, I won't pursue the ethereal so-called avenue with you, I just want to be a happy self." Regarding this issue, I don't think I need to say any more, this time I came to the Netherworld, I have something to ask for, I believe that for the sake of 'being a fallen person from another world', you will definitely not refuse, right? ”

The Empress said: "I remember you said that you came for Zhao Qingya, who is known as the medical immortal. ”

"Yes, she has been poisoned by you, and she wants you to give her an antidote before she will heal my person." Li He said, and couldn't help but think that the queen could make the medicine immortal poison for decades and not be solved, would the medical skills also be above the medicine immortal? If Jingji and Ling'er bring Netherworld, will she be cured immediately?

Naturally, he sensed these thoughts immediately, and said, "I don't know much about medical skills, and Zhao Qingya didn't fall for my poison." ”

"Huh?" Li He frowned: "Then who did she fall for?" Why did you ask you for an antidote? ”

"She wasn't poisoned at all."

"What?"

"As I said, mental power is amazing. Decades ago, I left a dream demon in her mind that made her think she was poisoned. But in fact, her body was not poisoned, so how could she be cured by healing her body? ”

Li He vaguely understood, and said, "Then you can go with me to Wanlin Sect to take her ...... Is it cured? ”

The Empress said softly: "I will never and cannot leave here in my life until the catastrophe comes." ”

"Are you just going to die? What kind of hatred do you have with the medical fairy? tortured her for dozens of cars. It shouldn't be enough. ”

"The dream demon I planted in my heart has long since disappeared. The torture she is suffering from now is nothing more than her own reaction to the drugs she used. As long as she overcomes the psychological effects, she will naturally heal herself. ”

"Huh? Are you saying that the medical immortal has been scared of himself for so many years? Li He said in surprise.

"Not bad."

"So what do I do? Tell directly. You weren't poisoned, but the old witch scared you? Li He said, "Can she believe it?" ”

"I don't care about that, you don't even have this ability, do you?"

"The dignified medical immortal actually let a poison that obviously does not exist be tortured for decades, this is to say. She couldn't accept it herself. Li He pouted and said, "But since she wasn't poisoned, it shouldn't be difficult for her to realize this." As he spoke, he thought of the Tianshan Snow Lotus, and said to the Youhou: "You have lived a long time, and you should have seen a lot of the world outside, but you know how to refine the Tianshan Snow Lotus."

"Tianshan Snow Lotus is indeed a rare holy medicine for ordinary people, but for you and me. But it didn't make much use. I have never seen the Tianshan Snow Lotus, so naturally I don't know how to refine it. ”

"Oh." Li He was slightly disappointed.

However, the Queen of the Shadows immediately said: "But there are people in my Netherworld Heavenly Palace who understand. ”

"Who?"

"It's the woman who brought you into the palace."

"She? I thought it was a phantom of yours. Li He was surprised.

The Empress continued: "She is the former alternate saintess of the Tianshan Sect, and she should know the refining method of the Tianshan Snow Lotus. ”

"Why is she here with you?"

"She came to challenge me on the island, and I needed someone to help me in the construction of this room, so I saved her life. Let her stay in the palace and cultivate. ”

"You're such a big place...... Wouldn't she be the only one? Li He asked.

"It's really just her." The queen replied.

"What about those who went up to the island to find the Netherworld?"

"Killed."

"She killed them all?"

"I kill the ground."

"But you never leave this room, do you?"

The Empress did not refuse his questions, and answered them one by one: "During the day, the woods and vines on the island will trap them, and at night, my spiritual extension can stretch to the ground and kill them. When talking about killing, her voice is still as gentle and soft.

Li He thought for a while and said, "What about the five palaces and three gates on the rivers and lakes? Since you are already going to pursue your path and never leave this Netherworld Heavenly Palace again, why do you want to keep them? ”

"I was still building this Netherworld Palace, and I needed them to bring me something I needed on the mainland. So I kept them. And now...... I have no interest in their rise and fall. ”

"Then I'm going to deal with them, you shouldn't have a problem, right?" Li He said.

"You don't have to deal with them, I can make them all do your bidding."

Li He smiled: "Then thank you." ”

"There's nothing else you can do, you can leave." The queen said softly.

"Will we meet again?" Li He asked as he looked directly at the perfect face of the Empress You.

"Maybe, maybe not."

"If I come to the Netherworld Palace again, will you meet me?"

"Of course."

The face of the queen always gave Li He a dreamlike trance, and he suddenly wanted to see what her eyes were like - a woman with such a beautiful face should also be very beautiful.

"Why do you keep your eyes closed, I want to look at your eyes before leaving."

"It's better not to watch it."

"For my own good?"

"What if I have to see it?"

"Unless you can get into my eyelids."

Li He smiled helplessly and said, "Then send me out." When I said this, I was a little reluctant in my heart.

"Li He" called the queen.

"How?"

"Although the name is just a code name for a person, but the old witch is really hard to hear, can you change the name to me?"

Li He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Okay." Sister You. ”

"Goodbye." The corners of the queen's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a faint smile, as if a gorgeous but soft flower exploded in this darkness in an instant, and Li He was stunned, but then his eyes darkened. The whole body fell backwards into an abyss.

I don't know how long later, a blue light flashed in front of him, Li He opened his eyes, and found that he was already lying in the blue light channel when he came, and Xiangxiang was lying not far from him.

Li He walked over and bent down to pick up the little fox demon. Leaning over and seeing her serene expression on her face, she seemed to be asleep, and the gentle voice of the queen sounded in her ears again: "In an hour or two, she will naturally wake up." ”

Li He nodded, turned around and said to the swarthy entrance, "Thank you." Then he hugged Xiangxiang and walked towards the exit.

The huge circular door at the exit was open, and when Li He walked out of the passage, he saw that the woman in the black dress who had led them into the Netherworld Heavenly Palace was still standing by the door.

The voice of the queen sounded again: "Lan Lan. From today onwards, you will follow this Li Gongzi out of the Netherworld Heavenly Palace, obey his orders, and do your best for him, understand? ”

When the woman in the black dress heard this, her delicate body was shocked, and she knelt on the ground as if in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "The queen of the shadows." I don't want to leave here, I don't want to leave you. ”

The queen said: "If you don't want to listen to me, I will kill you if you stay here." When he said this, he still spoke in a soft tone, but it did not make people doubt the truth and seriousness of the words.

"I'll listen to you, as long as you let me stay here." The woman in the black dress begged.

Li He couldn't help but be a little puzzled, what is so good about this strange and weird place that can make this woman so affectionate? Or is it the queen she is obsessed with?

"I'll let you leave with this Li Gongzi now and listen to his orders."

The woman in the black dress hung her head down. After a long time, he whispered, "Yes." ”

A blue rectangular token slowly flew out of the passage and landed on her, and Li He saw that the token was engraved with three words - Netherworld.

"You can control the five palaces and three gates of the Netherworld Heaven with it, and everyone will dare to disobey orders when they see this token. You must assist Li Gongzi well, and his orders will be like my orders. ”

The woman in the black dress nodded yes, put away the token, and bowed deeply three times in the direction of the passage before getting up.

When Li He pulled Xiangxiang and the woman in the black dress and turned around and walked towards the side of the main hall, the voice of the queen sounded again.

"If you really want to live according to the rules of heaven all the time, then you can really live happily. But unless you are willing to give up something, you will one day go to heaven. After all, one day it will go against the sky. ”

Hearing this, Li He's footsteps paused slightly, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart about the intention of the queen to say this.

Abandon something? Li He pondered this sentence repeatedly, and the person and the woman in the black dress had come out of the Netherworld Heavenly Palace to the island.

At this time, it was already dark, and the woman in the black dress took Li He around the woods for a while, and found the fire unicorn lying on the ground sleeping soundly.

The three of them got on the fire unicorn, and under the guidance of the woman in the black dress, they quickly turned out of the woods and reached the edge of the island.

The big ship of "Fufeng Pawnshop" is still moored at the seaside not far away, brightly lit, and you can vaguely hear the roaring tide and the whistling sea breeze, mixed with one or two voices. The fire unicorn rushed to the vicinity like the wind, and immediately some of the subordinates who let the wind released found it and shouted: "The second son is back!" The second son is back!

The fire unicorn roared, jumped in the water, pulled up, and landed steadily on the deck, splashing down the water with a bang.

Li He pulled Xiangxiang and jumped off the back of the unicorn, and the woman in the black dress who followed closely suddenly asked, "Is this the Tianshan Fire Qilin?" ”

Li He looked back at her, the woman in the black dress had always been cold and cold, and she didn't talk much, even if the queen asked her to obey her orders, it seemed to be very reluctant. Although this woman is veiled, but in his eyes, even if her appearance is not as good as Qianqian Xiangxiang, she must be a rare beauty, if it is usual, he will do everything possible to tease this woman, but now that he has just come out of the Netherworld Heavenly Palace, his mind is full of things to talk about with the Queen of Darkness, and he is too lazy to take the initiative to talk to this ice girl.

"Not bad." Li He replied that the woman in the black dress was a member of the Tianshan faction, and she should have some relationship with Tianxiu and Aunt Feng, so it was not surprising that she would be interested in Tianshan or Qilin.

After the woman in the black dress received an affirmative answer, she looked at the fire unicorn. looked at Li He again, and his eyes couldn't help but flicker a little.

Li He was puzzled, but he was not in the mood to understand, so he just asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Xiaolan, Fenghuo Xiaolan."

"Beacon?" Li He was stunned. "Is there such a surname in this world? It's weird. ”

"Maple, it's the maple of maple leaves." Xiaolan said.

"Maple Fire Xiaolan, heh, interesting." Li He nodded and smiled.

"Second son, you're finally back!" Then. Shopkeeper Zhang rushed over with a group of subordinates, looking anxious and excited.

Li He smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Zhang, I've kept you waiting." ”

Shopkeeper Zhang walked closer before panting and said, "Second son, you can scare us to death." As he spoke, he looked at Fenghuo Xiaolan next to Li He, and looked stunned, "It's you......"

Li He was puzzled: "What? Do you know her? ”

Shinoran didn't speak. Shopkeeper Zhang replied: "You and Xiangxiao arrived on the island, and there was no news for five days, we were in a hurry, and we didn't care about your explanation, so we took weapons and went to the island to search." But it didn't take long to find that we were trapped in the woods, but fortunately this girl appeared and took us out of the woods. And told us that Childe was fine. Will be back in a short time. ”

Li He was stunned when he heard it: "Five days? I've been on the island for five days? ”

The shopkeeper Zhang said: "Second son, after we came back from the island, we waited for another thirteen days, and it has been more than eighteen days since you went to the island. ”

"Eighteen days ......" Li He couldn't help but look at Xiangxiang in his arms, the little fox demon slept sweetly, his pretty face was close to his chest, calm and serene.

Turning to look at Lan Lan. But I saw that her eyes were indifferent, and she looked back at herself lightly, as if to say: Do you think you have only been on the island for a day and a night?

At dawn, the ship set sail again and sailed away from the Netherworld.

Looking at the Netherworld Island in the distance, which was getting smaller and smaller, Li He couldn't help but feel a little lost.

After getting on the boat, Fenghuo Xiaolan went into the room arranged for her and did not show up again. Li He took care of Xiangxiang and didn't have time to see her, so he only told the crew to deliver her meals on time, and if she had any requests, she would do so.

Youming Island in the distance disappeared below the horizon, and the fragrance in Li He's arms also woke up faintly, looking at his master in confusion: "What's wrong with me?" ”

Li He sat on the bow of the boat with the little fox demon in his arms, combed his hair that was disturbed by the sea breeze, and said softly: "It's okay, you just slept for a while." ”

Xiangxiang shook her head, came out of her mind, looked up at Li He and said, "Xiangxiang remembers, we are in the Netherworld Heavenly Palace, Xiangxiang also saw her mother's ......"

"None of that is true, Xiangxiang. That's not your mother, it's the queen. Li He told Xiangxiang what happened in the strange dark room of the Netherworld Heavenly Palace one by one, but he omitted that he was from the future twenty-first century, and the queen was from the Tang Dynasty, only saying that they had some origins.

After hearing this, Xiangxiang couldn't help but sigh and sigh, "The realm of the Great Dao is so magical, and the spiritual power is really amazing." ”

Li He suddenly asked, "Xiangxiang, do you think my martial arts are far away from the realm of the Great Dao?" ”

Seeing Xiangxiang looking at him, he hurriedly added: "To be honest." ”

The little lonely demon blinked and said, "Xiangxiang doesn't know either." ”

Li He smiled and scratched her nose, "You little vixen, I'm afraid that I'm uncomfortable to tell the truth." Deliberately saying I don't know, right? ”

Xiangxiang smiled and said, "Xiangxiang doesn't dare to deceive the master. ”

The sea gently lapped the hull, the sun gently spread on the deck, and the two men in the bow of the boat sat quietly from dawn until evening.

"Master, is that queen beautiful?" The little lonely demon suddenly asked.

Li He nodded: "Well, it's beautiful." But she's beautiful, it's hard to describe...... The beauty is not just seen in the eyes, but also from the depths of the heart. ”

"Does the owner like her?"

Li He looked down at Xiangxiang in his arms and said, "I like it, but it's not the relationship between men and women between me and you." It's like the sea, the sky, and the moon. We also like it, but we just want to appreciate it and embrace it, and we don't have to have it. ”

Xiangxiang thought for a while and shook her head: "Xiangxiang doesn't understand." ”

Li He looked at the night sky covered with stars above his head, and said in a different voice: "When you see her, you will naturally understand." I really want to see her have a clear eye..."

"Xiangxiang." Li He said, "Do you say that everything is predestined? ”

"Well, everything in the world has a destiny."

Li He lay on his back on the deck, tilted his head to look at the constellations in the night sky, and asked, "How do you know that everything is predestined?" Who told you that? ”

Xiangxiang frowned and shook her head: "No one told Xiangxiang, but ...... Isn't this meant to be born? ”

Li He's gaze was still searching the night sky, and he muttered, "Nothing is predestined." ”

"Nothing is predestined...... Xiangxiang couldn't help but repeat his words in a low voice.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, Li He sat up and looked back, and saw that the shopkeeper Zhang took a few people and moved a table to the bow of the boat and said: "Second son, you and Miss Xiang have not eaten for a day, the little courage is in charge, bring the wine and food to the bow of the boat, how about you and Miss Xiang enjoying the moon while having dinner?" ”

Li He nodded and said, "Shopkeeper Zhang has a heart." ”

"It's our blessing to be able to serve the second son."

Li He's heart suddenly moved, thought of something, and said to the shopkeeper Zhang who was about to retreat: "You go and get a bottle with a stopper, a little smaller." ”

Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly instructed the person next to him to go down and fetch it, and soon handed over a small white porcelain vase that could only be held by one hand.

"All right, go down. No one is allowed to come up to deck tonight without my command. Li He explained.

Xiangxiang looked at the vial suspiciously: "What does the master want this bottle for?" ”

Li He smiled secretly: "This is for the immortals." ”

Xiangxiang was even more puzzled: "Is there anything special about this bottle?" ”

"Of course there's nothing special about this bottle, it's what's going to be in it."

Li He said with a smile, "The Empress said that the medical immortal was not poisoned at all, but for so many years, she has always thought that she was highly poisoned, and she did not hesitate to soak in the evil swamp of Wanlin Sect for a long time, if she was told now that all this was done for nothing, she would definitely be difficult to accept and not believe." So, I brought something back to her, so that she thought that it was the antidote, and after taking the antidote, she would naturally think that the poison had been cured, and she would no longer use medicine indiscriminately on herself. ”

"And what are we going to use to pretend this antidote?" Xiangxiang asked.

Li He said: "This fake antidote naturally can't be too common, otherwise with the ability of the medical immortal, he will definitely be suspicious." So the stranger, the more special, the less common something is, the easier it is for her to believe. And this antidote, hehe, is in my body. ”

Xiangxiang was puzzled: "In the master's body? ”

"Yes, but to take it out, you have to rely on incense." Li He said with a mischievous smile, pointed to his crotch and said, "Here." ”

"Huh!?" Xiangxiang immediately blushed when she heard this, and lowered her head: "Is it okay to do this?" ”

"Of course you can, I shouldn't have drunk this thing before I came to the medicine fairy...... Besides, mine is different from other people's......" Li He smiled and pressed the little fox demon under him
