Chapter 16: The Hall of the Dead
"Got it."
You Zhiqi's reaction was flat, and the other party couldn't judge whether his answer was right or wrong from the tone of his voice, demeanor, and expression.
"Childe-"
"Sit down."
Suddenly, You Zhiqi said these two words to her very seriously.
Looking up at the moon outside the window, Hua Lingyue was a little stunned, and then obediently moved the wooden bench and sat down in front of him, looking at him intently.
Looking at her extremely familiar movements and expressions, she must have been used to these for a long time.
"It's still early at night, how can the son get ......"
You Zhiqi made a "shh I dare to question even what I say. ”
She pursed her lips, grievance and unwillingness appeared on her face, and she stared at him stubbornly: "Lingyue just doesn't understand what all this is about...... Why did Childe do this to me? I don't understand, what exactly am I doing wrong? ”
You Zhiqi, who is gentle to the extreme, is very cool at this moment.
Hua Lingyue sighed heavily, knowing that there was no answer to everything, she still had to ask.
The dissatisfied You Zhiqi casually pointed to the door: "Let me out, I don't have to come in the near future." ”
After the eviction order, Hua Lingyue began to feel scared. It's been 10,000 years, and the two have been in the same room every night, and this is the first time he has gone out by himself.
Seeing that she didn't move for a long time, You Zhiqi simply opened the door and walked out.
To no avail, the woman's mournful cry soon spread throughout the Yiling Temple, which couldn't help but make him feel upset, and he walked forward without looking back.
Just one foot out of the door of the store, You Zhiqi also sighed, his face full of remorse.
He has lived for more than 10,000 years, and knows better than anyone that what will make people cry is never a sudden calamity and suffering, but countless small emotions in life that seem not worth mentioning.
They accumulate day and night, and suddenly one day they all come up, and with them countless grievances and angers.
Even if he knew, he wouldn't bother with it, he had more important things to do at the moment.
He took out a dragon scale from the pharmacy and used a spell to make it into a pill and put it in a porcelain bottle, and a long-lost smile appeared on You Zhiqi's handsome face again.
"Ready, wait for me." With that, he drew his sword and threw it into the air, leaping forward, stepping firmly on the sword with both feet, and sailing with the wind.
When he reached the woods, the light was completely gone, and the endless darkness overshadowed the light.
Everything is as Hua Lingyue said, the injured Mo Xiuxiu is lying on the wolf skin to rest, Arou is standing motionless next to her, and Jingdi is sitting by the fire, holding the roasted wolf leg and feasting.
Landing to collect the sword, You Zhiqi directly picked out the meaning: "Where is the eldest lady of Tianyin Pavilion?" ”
Even though his movements were neat, the sharp-eyed Ah Rou still caught a glimpse of the maple leaf engraved on the sword body, and asked tentatively: "Are you the master of Chaoyang Palace?" ”
A familiar voice came, Mo Xiuxiu opened her eyes quickly, and before she could pull out the dagger, she was held by the person who came: "I'm here to take you back to Chaoyang Palace." ”
These three words were like thunder, and Arou couldn't hide her excitement and laughed: "Miss, we have a backer!" ”
I have to say that You Zhiqi is really good-looking, with black and thick shoulder-length hair and a high crown. A dark green robe against the backdrop of the night makes people feel unfathomable.
Arou, who met for the first time, was inexplicably shy.
In the moonlight, the red mark in the middle of his forehead that hung down between his eyebrows was extremely charming and mysterious, and he was a demon man.
Although it was only the second time they met, Mo Xiuxiu felt that this person had an indescribable sense of intimacy, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, wanting to stretch out her hand to say hello, but it touched the wound on her shoulder, which made her "oops".
Looking at her pitiful appearance, You Zhiqi was a little distressed for a while, and took the opportunity to take out the porcelain bottle: "If you eat it, you won't feel uncomfortable." ”
The tone of his speech was flat and gentle, and his eyes were full of care.
The uneasiness and panic remaining in his heart all dissipated, and Ma Mo Xiuxiu staggered up from the wolf's skin, took the pill and thanked him.
In the next second, the pill was sent to Jing Di's mouth: "Eat it, this is an order!" ”
"Miss, never! This is given to you by Lord Dragon, how can you give it to others at will? ”
Ah Rou hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop it, she thought that it was really inappropriate to transfer gifts in front of the master's family, and she was afraid that You Zhiqi would blame her, and even afraid that Mo Xiuxiu would be difficult in Chaoyang Palace in the future, so she took this move.
It turned out that Ah Rou thought too much, and You Zhiqi waved his hand very generously: "It's okay, as long as Miss Mo is happy." ”
Accustomed to seeing the selfishness of people's hearts, Arou expressed her admiration and was a little surprised at the same time: "Miss, obviously you yourself are injured, why do you still want to give medicine?" ”
Mo Xiuxiu smiled slightly and didn't answer, forcibly broke Jingdi's mouth and stuffed the pill in.
Jingdi, who was greatly moved, burst into tears quickly, and stretched out her hand to beg for a hug, Mo Xiuxiu subconsciously took a step back: "You pounced on me to protect me at the expense of your life before, and this time I will return yours, there is no need to do this." ”
You Zhiqi sneered: "You little girl, you don't look very old, but you know how to borrow flowers and offer Buddha." ”
Listening to his jokes, Mo Xiuxiu couldn't help but laugh a little, and quickly explained: "I like both enmity and revenge, if there is kindness, there will be revenge, and if there is revenge, there will be revenge." ”
Jingdi was frightened by the five words "revenge will be avenged", and secretly prayed in her heart: I hope that the eldest lady will never know that she stole her jade pendant.
Glancing at Mo Xiuxiu's wound that had been bitten by a vicious wolf, You Zhiqi said: "Jiao'er entrusted me to take care of you, and since I have accepted this matter, I will fulfill my promise." The three of you will go back to Chaoyang Palace with me, and I will personally treat your injuries. ”
Yuehua Palace is built on the top of the Lingmai Peak, full of spiritual power, it is an excellent holy place for cultivating immortals, there are hundreds of palaces of all sizes, which are assigned to the disciples of the Five Elements Hall to live.
Although You Zhiqi is the master of Chaoyang Palace, he has few directors and is a nominal master.
There are five branches in Yuehua Palace, Jinyi Hall, Mu Yi Hall, Water Yi Hall, Fire Yi Hall, and Earth Yi Hall, which are respectively in charge of the five hall masters of Luo Qisheng, Cheng Yifeng, Yi Xue, Luan Yan, and Shen Jing.
The five of them are nominally You Zhiqi's right-hand men, but they are the real ones in charge of Chaoyang Palace.
Fortunately, everyone will only work together to the outside world, and they are loyal to the master, which not only avoids a lot of trouble, but also saves You Zhiqi a lot of worries.
After a short time, the three masters and servants were taken to the Yiling Palace.
This palace is his private residence, and it is difficult for idle people to enter.
From this, it is not difficult to judge that he must have a great relationship with Le Zhengjiao, otherwise how could he arrange for his friend to live in his palace?
