On the birthday of the night, several wild long-feathered white owls flew from a distance and landed on the roof of the back hall, tilting their heads slightly, staring at their wide round eyes, looking at everything in the courtyard in the dark.

Under the light of the fire in the stone lamps in the courtyard, the wide eyes of these long-feathered white owls were even brighter.

Walking to the door of the back hall, Xiao Shizhu suddenly paused, and said thoughtfully: "Just bring a ghost with the girl, and you can arrange their food and accommodation for the other entourage." ”。

Shi Cianming answered, turned and walked towards the front hall. Xiao Shizhu turned his head to look at Shi Cianming's departing back, and muttered in his heart, "What is this kid blushing today?"

The night wind blew, and the long-feathered white owls raised their heads and roared, shook their wings and flew high again, and rushed up to the sky with the wind, blending into the night;

The women and their subordinates waiting in the main hall couldn't help but look left and right, as if they felt that everything was new.

It has only been a few days since they came to the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and many things have opened their eyes. The tall and sturdy warships, the powerful guns, and the flying thunder cars and immortal chariots all made them stunned. There are also underworld passages that extend in all directions, all of which can parallel eight beast souls, and a spiritual canal that connects the farmland and the mountains, and can take water to irrigate the mountains, which also makes them all breathtaking.

Although the Nine Ghost Kingdom is the shortest ghost country in the underworld, the development of industry, agriculture and military industry, as well as various science and technology, is far ahead of the underworld, far better than other ghost countries in the ten continents.

The female lu was even more curious, what kind of human soul was Xiao Shizhu at the bottom, and he could actually develop the Nine Shadows Kingdom so well in more than ten years.

Shi Cassia, who had left for a while, returned to the front hall again, and after standing still in front of the female leader, Shi Cassia hurriedly lowered his head, changed his previous rough voice, and whispered with a slight trembling: "Female Lu, my lord has an invite." ”。

Shi Cianming didn't know why, he only knew swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, and he trained troops and arranged troops to learn strategy and tactics, but the moment he saw this silver-haired female ghost today, his cheeks immediately turned crimson, and his heartbeat accelerated violently.

At this time, the female snort was close at hand, and the warm breath brought by the breath of the breath was faintly scented, so that Shi Cianming smelled this fragrance is a burst of heart, and he never dared to raise his head and look at the bright but soft eyes of the female her.

"Okay, then General Lao Shi will lead the way. The maiden smiled indifferently, and her retinue rose to their feet, standing behind her.

"My lord has an explanation, but I only see a ghost. Shi Cianming, who finally looked up, looked around at the other ghosts, and said with a light smile: "Everyone, I will take you to eat and drink something, and then have a good rest." ”。

However, as he spoke, he and the female girl looked at each other, and hurriedly moved away, their cheeks flushing deeper.

"Why? What if something happens to my princess?"

"That is, who will protect the princess in case she is in danger?"

"Could it be that the Nine Shadows King has anything to think about?" ......

The entourage who followed the female squire was slightly stunned, and then shouted in a gossipy. For a while, they were excited, and the main hall became noisy. There are all kinds of speculations about Xiao Shizhu, and conspiracy theories are everything.

even guessed that Xiao Shizhu was a prodigal son with non-dividing thoughts.

"Rest easy, everybody. Don't worry, if my lord really did something villainous, just a few of you ghosts, your soul would have already been scattered. My father-in-law just wants to have a good talk with the girl. When Shi Cassia heard this, his cheeks flushed. Hurriedly waved his hands back and forth, and explained urgently.

Looking at his hurried appearance, Nulu couldn't help but feel that such a stone cassia was a little less majestic and a little more childlike cuteness. So he lowered his head and secretly "poofed" a smile.

Then the female who put away her smile hurriedly raised her hand to stop the gossip of her entourage, and said loudly: "Everyone, don't quarrel, I don't think the Nine Shadows King will not be able to secretly murder us." I'll go see him myself, and you and General Shi will go and have something to eat. ”。

"Princess, it's not right to do this. The other ghosts all stopped making noise, and only the captain of the boat was still saying, "If you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of what if." ”。

"If there is no princess, don't call me a princess, and there will be no eventuality. The female squire said confidently.

The captain of the boat heard her tone affirmatively, and when he saw that his demeanor was calm and composed, he was slightly stunned and put away a little uneasy, but he was still a little worried. After pondering for a moment, he asked Shi Cianming, "Then we will wait here, okay?"

Shi Cianming thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement with his words.

Then he told the guards to get some food and drink for the retinue of the maiden, and then led the maiden towards the back hall.

In the quiet back hall, several slender and soft bamboos dance in the night breeze. The night breeze is slightly cool in early autumn, which makes the female body feel refreshed.

She followed Shi Cianming slowly forward, while looking around, but seeing that the back hall was not only not heavily guarded, but also not many palace people to serve, and magnificent, but simple and elegant, the female Lu couldn't help but ask: "General Shi, take the liberty of asking, doesn't your lord pay attention to pomp?"

"The lord is a proper and proper attention if he has conditions, and he is a random ghost if he is not conditional. Shi Cianming, who didn't dare to turn back and face the female slur, kept his eyes staring intently ahead: "Now that I am fighting outside, in the words of my lord, pomp and circumstance cannot save my life on the battlefield, so if I can avoid it, I will be exempted." ”。

Before they had finished speaking, they were already standing in front of the door of the back hall.

"My lord, the maiden asks to see you. Shi Cianming stood still in front of the closed door and bowed.

"Let her in. Then Xiao Shizhu's angry voice came from inside the house.

"Yes. Shi Cassia raised his hand in response, slowly pushed open the door and stepped aside.

The female squire did not step inside, but peered into the room first. Under the soft light emitted by the centipede beads in the house, I saw that the floor in the house was extremely luxurious, paved with jasper and jade bricks, but the furnishings were very simple. A desk full of books stood in the corner, and a bed with a shelf next to it was not far away.

All that remained was a round table in the center, and four stools around it. A man with a body like a jade tree, a tall nose bridge on the jade face, long eyebrows like willows on both sides, a pair of eyes like stars under the eyebrows, and long black hair that is not tied up, but draped behind the head, is sitting at this round table with fresh melons, fruits and snacks.

Dressed in a pitch-black robe, he took off his right shoe, bent his knee and pressed his foot on the edge of the chair. Holding a teapot in his hand, he is holding the slender spout of the teapot and drinking tea leisurely.

As soon as the door opened, the male ghost hurriedly put down his feet and hurriedly put them into his shoes in front of the stool.

When he raised his head with a smile and looked at the female ghost, the female demon saw that between the eyebrows of this male ghost who was full of ruffian breath, there was a domineering spirit that looked at the world and was proud of the whole hero.

This ghost is the Nine Shadows King Xiao Shizhu, no doubt!

Thinking so, some deer was bumping into the woman, and strode into the house. When the door was closed by Shi Shiming, she had already come to Xiao Shizhu and stood three feet away.

"The ghost girl of the dead country, meet the King of the Nine Shadows. The female girl showed a respectful look on her face, and immediately knelt on the ground and bowed to Xiao Shizhu.

"How cold it is on the ground, get up and speak. Xiao Shizhu smiled slightly, and the corners of his lips were flushed with a hint of tenderness.

Nulu is really a beauty, not to mention her delicate facial features, and her figure is also good. However, Xiao Shizhu just thinks she is beautiful, but she doesn't have any feelings. As for letting her get up, it was just Xiao Shizhu's habit.

But thinking that after the female lu arrived, it was Shi Cassia Ming who went to receive her. Xiao Shizhu had already guessed that Shi Cassia Ming's blushing tonight was probably related to this beautiful female ghost.

Thinking of this, Xiao Shizhu suddenly had the idea of matching the two ghosts, and secretly said in his heart: "Shi Cassia Ming, this stinky boy, is still quite discerning." ”。

"Thank you, King of the Nine Shadows. As she said this, she slowly stood up. However, he kept his head down, not daring to look directly into Xiao Shizhu's eyes.

"Sit down and talk, you don't have to be so nervous, you can relax, we can have some fruit and snacks, drink some tea, and talk about the purpose of your coming to our country. Xiao Shizhu said again.

The female girl was startled, suddenly stunned, and then slowly raised her head, staring at Xiao Shizhu with suspicious eyes.

The class system of the underworld had been ingrained in her heart, and she couldn't believe that the Hades King who was high up in the previous country not only did not want her to kneel to talk about things, but also allowed her to sit on an equal footing with herself, and there were also tea and snacks to entertain her, which made the female girl very terrified.

If there is a bear country that has not perished, Xiao Shizhu's easy-going attitude and approachable words and deeds may be normal. But now that the country of bears has perished, and the soulless female lu is just an exiled ghost with no support, Xiao Shizhu still entertained her so warmly, so that she was overwhelmed and thought that she had heard it wrong, and at the same time felt very warm.

"Sit down and talk. Xiao Shizhu took a sip of the pantry and glanced at the female girl, and after seeing that her eyes were getting more and more incomprehensible, he repeated his previous words.

The female who had been thinking about it for a long time still felt that it was better to be respectful than to obey her fate, so she responded resignedly, and cautiously walked to sit down opposite Xiao Shizhu, but she was like sitting on pins and needles, and she had long lost her previous composure, and there was only a panicked look on her face.

"Is it because I look scary and look too sorry that makes you so flustered?Or did you hear some rumors, such as that I am hard-hearted and murderous, despicable and obscene in the course of comminuted fractures, etc., that frightened you?" Xiao Shizhu asked very curiously, looking at the female who also lowered her head after sitting down, and didn't dare to breathe.

"No, no, no, I'm just ......," the woman with completely red cheeks hurriedly defended, but before she finished speaking, she was speechless. Then he hurriedly took out a rolled-up silk book from his sleeve, and said in a voice like a thin mosquito: "Let's ask the Nine Shadows King to see my father's handwritten silk book first." ”。

"Okay, you eat some dragon liver melon first, it's very sweet. When Xiao Shizhu said this, he handed a plate of sliced dragon liver melons on the table to the female lu, and the female lu also presented the silk book in her hand with both hands.

Xiao Shizhu took the silk book, put down the teacup, unfolded the silk book, and looked at it carefully.

His gaze slowly moved on the silk book, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his brow slowly furrowed.

After a while, Xiao Shizhu, who had already finished reading the content of the silk book, rolled up the silk book slowly, and asked Su Se to the female who had just taken a small bite of the dragon liver melon: "Have you read the content of the silk book?"

The female shook her head blankly.

"Your father mentioned that he wanted a promise from me. Xiao Shizhu then said.
