Chapter 15: The Truth
Ou Ye only felt that he had been in the endless night for a long time before he woke up, and in a daze, he felt his body float lightly. Then he opened his sleepy-eyed eyes, only to find himself floating in the air, with a 10,000-character meditation mantra on his head.
"You're finally awake!"
Ou Ye flipped it lightly, and saw Ni Xue and them floating in the air
"Where are we?"
"Elven prison. ”
"Aren't we in the ballroom? ”
"You're embarrassed to say! You're not the first to fall. ”
Ou Ye thought about it seriously, as if he was very sleepy at that time, and he couldn't control his body at all and fell asleep.
"Yes, it was indeed a sudden sleepiness at that time, and I fell. Ou Ye looked at him and babbled, "But I'm asleep, so I won't let us be arrested here, right?"
"You don't have to go to jail to sleep, but don't you notice any difference in you now?" said T-Babble in a very witty tone.
Ou Ye looked at his hands and feet carefully, "I didn't find anything wrong." ”
"That's right, you can't see it like this! Just look at Ni Xue and they will know. ”
Ou Ye turned around in the air, as if swimming in water, and his movements seemed to be very agile.
"No problem, aren't all my sisters like that?" Suddenly he seemed to notice something. I finally understood. He touched his ears and eyes. "yes, our elven costumes are gone. ”
"Got it! You fell so hard during the award ceremony that all the things that disguised your identity fell to the ground. So your identities have been revealed. The king, in a fit of rage, locked us all up here. ”
"But what are they?" Ou Ye saw Ni Xue lying in the air, almost motionless.
"Like you, I don't know what's going on, how sleepy you really are, they haven't woken up yet. ”
Only then did Ou Ye remember that it was already early morning before they came to this underground elf world, so it should have been almost a day since he closed his eyes, but he didn't expect that without any sign of sleepiness, he could fall asleep like this as soon as sleepiness came.
"It's a big mess this time, so what are they going to do with us?"
"I heard that it was going to be thrown directly into a black hole. ”
"Black hole, what are you talking about?" Ni Xue seemed to be woken up by this brief other party, and as soon as she woke up, she was also startled by the environment she was in, "Wow, this is ......"
"Prison. Ni Xue shouted. As a result, Chen Xi was also awakened.
"What are you arguing about?" Chen Xi didn't seem to have woken up from his sleepiness, just floating with his head down, where could this head stand it, sometimes it was like a frog purring and turning its body, sometimes swimming in the air like a fish.
"Don't interrupt, what kind of black hole is that you just said?" Ou Ye was very curious about this term.
"To the place of death. She yawned as she spoke. And Chen Xi almost hit the wall directly when he heard this.
"No, we just concealed our identities, and we didn't kill people and set fires, so why should we be guilty of such a serious crime. ”
Speaking of this, Ou Ye suddenly saw that the little girl from before was now standing outside the door, looking at him with her head down.
"Actually, it all started 10 years ago when our king's princess was taken away by outsiders. Originally, although we in the elven world could not go to the upper world to operate, our kingdom still had contacts with the outside world. But 10 years ago, since our princess was taken captive by a human from the upper world, there has been no news since. So the king decreed that outsiders should not be allowed to enter our world, and if they entered, they would be killed! ”
"What is the situation of your king, my daughter is worthy of sympathy for being arrested, but how foolish he is to regard all human beings as mortal enemies because of one person!" Ni Xue said indignantly.
"A girl in her teens?" Ou Ye was suddenly stunned, her eyes bulging out a little, "Is she tied with two long ponytails, her eyes are still colored around her eyes, and her eyes are also big, and she is wearing a pink princess dress." ”
"You're talking about what she looked like when she disappeared! But how do you know what she looked like when she disappeared, I only saw her portrait on the city-wide notice when I was a child. ”
"Because she's standing outside the door right now. ”
"What?" everyone looked out the door, but they didn't see anything.
"Don't scare us, my heart is going to jump out. Ni Xue's heart was pounding rapidly, she had always been very afraid of the topic of ghosts.
"You really can't see it?"
"See what, girl?" Chen Xi glanced back and forth at the door a few times,
"Yezi, don't scare me!" Ni Xue began to cover her ears with her hands.
"You really can't see it?" Ou Ye's scalp tingled, "but she seems to want us to follow her." ”
"No, is this a prediction that we are about to hit the road?" Hearing Chen Xi's words, Ni Xue covered her mouth.
At this moment, they seemed to have normal gravity again, and everyone fell to the ground. At the same time, the barred doors of the prison were opened, and the serious-looking wizard appeared outside the door.
"What is the purpose of you outsiders daring to trespass on our elven bunker?" he questioned and looked at the babble, "As an elf, you have betrayed your people. I'll just say that you want to type the wordless book of heaven, what kind of doctrine do you want? ”
"I think you're misunderstood, we don't have any bad intentions. And babbling is to meet by chance, borrowing the wordless book of heaven is just that I heard that it is very mysterious and curious. Chen Xi said seriously.
"Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"
"Actually, we just want to find someone, and your wordless book can help us find him. Ou Ye replied firmly.
"It's that simple? I didn't expect you to be so stubborn when you were dying, come and push them straight into the black hole. ”
"Yes. Several guards at the door responded.
Then the four guards of the fat man appeared at the door, and Ou Ye and the others were escorted straight to the black hole by the fat man.
"Wait, now that we're all going to be put to death, can Mr. Wizard verify one thing for me? ”
"There's nothing special that doesn't have to struggle. "The wizard didn't seem interested in listening.
"Actually, I just wanted to tell you that a girl with two long ponytails, two eyes surrounded by colorful skin tones, big eyes, and a pink princess dress is standing behind you. ”
"Huh?" the wizard looked puzzled, then he turned around, but he didn't see anything, and then he said something, he touched the staff in his hand directly to the ground, and suddenly there was some commotion in the crowd, it turned out that they saw the silhouette of the little girl standing there, but within two seconds the magic instantly failed. The silhouette of the little girl was gone. The wizard turned his head and looked at Ou Ye with a surprised expression.
"Looks like your fate has been saved for the time being, though I'm not sure how you managed to see the ghost. Then he turned and left, and at last he gave the order to the guards, "Take them to the main hall." ”
Ou Ye and the others were escorted directly to the direction of the palace by a few guards, and when they entered the lotus pond in the garden, Ou Ye saw the little girl again, she was standing on a huge stone rockery, and her hand kept pointing down. Ou Ye seemed to understand something, they were escorted to the back of the hall by the guards, and the king was already sitting on the throne, and his expression was completely like he was going to eat people.
From the stunned expression on the king's face, Ou Ye could tell that the wizard must have told him everything that had just happened, maybe he couldn't believe it was true, but it seemed that he was really frightened by the possible outcome. Ou Ye could clearly feel the king's hands and feet trembling, as if he would have hoped that the princess had been taken captive by humans more than this terrible news.
"Do you know what you mean? don't try to get away with it, if you deceive me, the punishment for you will be beyond your imagination. ”
Ni Xue and the others all looked at Ou Ye nervously, Ou Ye was naturally a little hairy in his heart, but he was very confident in his judgment, although he had never believed in any ghosts and gods before.
"I'm just saying what I see, and if you want to believe it, you can't help it. We're all going to die anyway, aren't we?"
The king looked at the wizard and asked, "Then tell me where my princess is?"
Ou Ye pointed to the lotus pond in the direction of the garden, "The princess told her that it was under the boulder shape of the lotus pond. ”
"She told you?" The king's face turned pale.
"I don't know how to see her, but that's what she told me. ”
The king frowned, and motioned for the wizard to move the boulder rockery out of the lotus pond. ”
At this moment, except for Ou Ye, Ni Xue and the others were as nervous as the king.
I saw that the sorcerer was chanting words, and then I saw several water columns appear in the flower pond, so that the back water column moved the boulder one by one like a strong hand, and as the boulder moved away, the body of a little girl lay quietly in the stone cave under the boulder. ”
As soon as the king saw this, he hurried forward, and Ouye and the others followed. The king wept silently at the sight of the girl's body in the lake, and huge tears slid down his face full of years, and it seemed that it was indeed the princess who had been missing for ten years.
It's just that someone seems to have used magic on her body, and her appearance still hasn't changed, and the soul is trapped here with **.
The king picked up the princess, her hand drooped down, only to hear a crisp sound, a gem that seemed to have magic fell to the ground, the princess's body disappeared into the air like molten water in a blink of an eye, although the king was very reluctant but these were irreparable, he bent down and picked up the magic gem, the gem flowed with brilliant light, and then his eyes suddenly changed from extreme sadness to unspeakable anger, it seemed that he knew something.
"Go get Princess Celie for me."
The guards were stunned.
"Don't go yet. The wizard urged.
"Yes!" the group didn't know what was going on, and they all rushed out.
"Thank you!"
The king said excitedly holding Ouye's hand.
"Excuse me! Shall we be acquitted? ”
"Of course. Hurry up and untie them. ”
"I really didn't expect my daughter to die here, but I haven't discovered anything in ten years, and I still treat her as my own daughter. The king was clearly remorseful about himself.
Ou Ye didn't understand what he meant, but Ou Ye at least knew that the king knew the murderer, and Ou Ye felt that the murderer's name sounded familiar.
After they were released, they followed the king back to the main hall. Everyone seemed to have their own thoughts, and the lobby was silent, so quiet that you could almost hear the wind blowing.
After a while, Princess Celie was ushered into the lobby. Only then did Ou Ye realize that this was the princess who had made things difficult for him at the celebration banquet.
As soon as Princess Celie arrived, a look of resentment suddenly appeared in the king's eyes.
"Uncle, you see that these guards treat me like a prisoner, they all hurt me, you have to punish them well. Princess Celie didn't seem to know her situation.
"Do you know what I asked them to arrest you for?"
"Uncle, how would I know?" she looked at Ou Ye and them, "It won't be for me to come and see their show!"
"That's just the opposite!"|Ou Ye could feel that the king had been suppressing his voice, so as not to lose his mind.
"Did I do something wrong?" said Princess Celi.
"I want to say that this matter has something to do with the garden and the lotus pool, do you know what I'm talking about?"
"I don't understand. I clearly felt that Princess Celi's voice was starting to feel a little strange.
"You should understand this very well when you look at something like this. The king's tone suddenly became heavier, and as soon as the king finished speaking, he threw the magic crystal in front of Princess Celi.
"This?" At this moment, the expression on Princess Siri's face had become extremely distorted.
"You killed my beloved princess, Princess Chenni, and if it weren't for this human helping me discover this secret, I would still be in the dark. ”
"It's you again!" Princess Celie was still making her final sophistry, "I didn't kill her, uncle, you can't just listen to people's nonsense." ”
"Nonsense, then take out the magic crystal I gave you. ”
"This?" She reluctantly pulled out the magic crystal from her middle pocket, and her hands trembled a little.
After the king looked at the magic crystal she took out, the truth had completely surfaced.
"Why did you kill your sister. ”
"Sister, I don't have a sister, if you want to blame you, if you hadn't robbed my father of the throne, I would have been the new empress a long time ago. Her eyes became a little hideous, "Do you know how I felt when I was pushed around before I was 14?"
"But since I found you and brought you back, you haven't had a good time!" the king could not understand.
"Happy? No, you know that whenever I see what Chenni enjoys and has, I say to myself that these things should belong to me, and the things you give me are mine, and I have to take them all back. ”
"You're crazy, you can't blame me for your dad's death, and I didn't take anything away from you. ”
"Needless to say, since you've found out, what do you want to do with me. ”
"Someone! Put her in the dungeon first. No one is allowed to see him. "The hearts of foreign countries are really mixed.
Princess Celie was escorted out by the guards, she glanced at Ou Ye, and dropped a sentence in her mouth,
"I'll settle accounts with you sooner or later. ”
Ou Ye was stunned by this man's words, and at this time Ou Ye saw Princess Chenni again, she stood next to the king and looked at the king, and then she waved at him Ou Ye, and finally disappeared into thin air.
