Chapter 39: Probably the Rumors
"Hangover soup." He said.
He sighed and said helplessly, "Today I went to listen to music with Brother Du, and I drank some wine when I was interested, but Brother Du started to get drunk without a few drinks, and finally I dragged him back to the inn. ”
No wonder I only see him drinking tea and not drinking alcohol on weekdays, and I think about it in my heart.
"Then you brought it to him, why did you bring it to my house?"
He sighed again and said aggrievedly, "Sister doesn't know, Brother Du was abducted by me and taken to Hualou, it's really boring to listen to music alone, I dragged him to listen to music with me, and now I'm drunk again in front of you, I'll take it over to him now, he has to beat me." ”
After thinking about it for a while, he looked at the steaming decanting soup on the table, and could only respond, "Then you can put it here, and I will send it for you later." ”
"That's really Sister Lao." He smiled, and then added, "Sister, can you not say that I sent it when you send it?" ”
"Why?" She asked.
He smiled a little uncomfortably and said, "I have a big old man who sent him sobering soup, if he knew about it, it is estimated that he would vomit out the overnight meal." ”
Xihe smiled and replied, "Don't worry, I won't say it." ”
"Thank you, sister." After Yujingzi thanked him, he went back.
Xihe was worried that the sobering soup would be cold, and as soon as Yujingzi walked on the front foot, she took the soup to another room, she knocked on the door, and when the mountain ghost opened the door for her, his face was still red, but it was much lighter than when she first came back.
She put down the tray in her hand and couldn't help asking, "Mountain Ghost, how much wine have you drunk?" ”
"Three glasses."
After only three cups, he drank like this, and he wanted to laugh a little, but he didn't expect the omnipotent mountain ghost to drink so badly, and it was not as good as hers.
"What are you laughing at?" He didn't seem to be in a good mood.
Xi He smiled, picked up the decanting soup on the plate and handed it to him, "This is decanting soup, you should feel better after drinking it." ”
"Benjun is not drunk."
Having said that, he still took the bowl in her hand, raised his eyes and asked, "Is this what you did for Benjun?" ”
She promised Yu Jingzi that she couldn't say it, and said "um" vaguely.
He smiled, and frowned as his reddish lips were about to touch the soup bowl.
Seeing that he hadn't taken a sip for a long time, her eyes were staring at the yellow sobering soup and she didn't move, she took a step closer, leaned her head over and sniffed, "What's wrong?" What's wrong with this soup....."
As soon as they raised their eyes, they looked at each other, and the distance between the two was almost like their noses rubbing their noses.
The air seemed to stand still at this moment, and his gaze rushed to her face like fire, and her face was hot at this moment, and her ears tingled with the sound of her heartbeat.
"Xihe, I...."Xue Gu, who had just stepped into the house with one foot, looked at this scene, and after being stunned for a moment, she turned around and walked out again, and she didn't know what to think, and the next moment she reversed and closed the door, this time without even raising her head.
At the same time, Xue Gu's unexpected intrusion frightened her and her heart was weak for a while, and her forehead hit the mountain ghost's tall nose when she panicked, and she squatted in place with her head in her hands.
After a dead silence, the two spoke at the same time.
"I...."
"You...."
Xihe slowly stood up, pulled out an ugly smile, and said, "Mountain Ghost, that....I....I'll go back first." ”
As soon as she turned around, the mountain ghost stopped her.
She turned her face to look at him, and the mountain ghost raised the bowl in her hand at her, drank the soup in the bowl in one go, and coughed lightly, "Thank you for the sobering soup." ”
Xihe took the bowl that still had residual warmth, and when he thought that this bowl had just been taken from his hand, he only felt extremely hot, and said "I'm leaving" and went out in a hurry.
After drinking the sobering soup, the mountain ghost did not feel any effect, but became more and more groggy, he walked back to the bed, untied his robe and lay on the bed, and after a while he fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, the room was silent, and a small cool breeze suddenly swirled in the closed room, and a red figure flashed into the room.
He walked slowly towards the sleeping man on the bed, his steps light and barely making a sound.
When he walked to the side of the bed, he carefully looked at the man on the bed from top to bottom before squatting in front of the bed, he took out a transparent bead from behind him, and as soon as he cast a spell, a threatening aura came to him, and he immediately stepped back and flashed out.
As soon as he stood firm, he bumped into the man's cold purple eyes as soon as he raised his head.
The man had already put on his robe, got up from the bed, stood with his hands in his hands, his lips were shallowly curved, although he was smiling, he smiled gloomily, "You were the same last time I was in Qionglin, Yu Jingzi." ”
Seeing this, Yu Jingzi laughed, pretended to be stupid and said, "I don't understand what Brother Du is saying." ”
He put away his smile and said in a deep voice, "Don't pretend, you have attacked Benjun three times and twice, do you really think that Benjun doesn't know?" ”
"You asked her to bring the decanting soup at night, right?"
As soon as he took the bowl of decanting soup, he smelled a snake fragrance, only Yujingzi will have snake fragrance, snake fragrance is not toxic when it penetrates into the diet, but there will be a feeling of paralysis, even the gods and ghosts will fall into a coma.
Unfortunately, these little tricks didn't work much for him.
Seeing that the facts had been exposed, Yu Jingzi had no intention of continuing to pretend, and her face turned cold, "Ancient Demon Venerable, it's really good that you hide next to your sister." ”
The mountain ghost sneered and said, "Benjun didn't say that you used the beloved you said twice, but you blamed Benjun first, and it was really sharp teeth." ”
"Each other, each other." He said.
The mountain ghost lowered his eyes, glanced at his right hand behind him, and said lightly, "Benjun knows what kind of calculation you are playing, for the sake of her face, Benjun kindly told you not to waste your efforts in vain." ”
He clenched his hand in the bead, chuckled, and said, "I know I'm no match for you, but even if I don't get what I want today, I'll be able to get it one day." ”
"Really?" He also smiled, and then his expression was dark, he looked into his eyes, and said word by word, "Your Spirit Turning Bead can't absorb the slightest bit of ghost and god power from Benjun, because...Benjun doesn't have the power of ghosts and gods now." ”
Zhuan Lingzhu can absorb the cultivation ability of others, and he remembers it vividly.
His words were like a slap in the face to Yujingzi, and after they echoed in his ears three times, he came back to his senses and said with a look of disbelief, "Do you think I'm a good fool?" ”
"Believe it or not."
The mountain ghost walked to the table and sat down, picked up the teacup and poured him a cup of tea, and also poured himself a cup of tea, "Since you are not in a hurry to leave, then sit down and drink a cup of tea, it will be regarded as the sobering tea that this gentleman gave you." ”
He was willing to accompany him in this scene because he wanted to know what his purpose was.
The last time she was in Qionglin, Xi He stepped forward to protect him, and at the critical moment, a red flame flashed in the air to block her from the disaster.
How could he not recognize Minghuo?
Since he led him into Qionglin, he deliberately drew out a few wisps of chaotic souls, and even specially chose it on the night of the full moon, if he really wanted to avenge the snake king and his wife, with his ability, he could take his life before Xihe arrived.
But he didn't, he was a little curious.
Everyone in the world knows that he killed the snake king and his wife with a sword, and Yu Jingzi definitely won't know it.
He didn't take the opportunity to kill himself, but saved him, which is really interesting.
It wasn't until he saw the Spirit Bead in his hand that he knew his true purpose.
Everyone knows that the power of ghosts and gods has the ability to destroy the world and destroy the world, and the lethality and destructive power are extremely strong and domineering, but at the same time, the power of ghosts and gods also has the ability to reshape all things.
Therefore, the fairies and demons shouted at him and shouted to kill, and there was no one behind his back who did not covet his heavenly skills.
Although the Spirit Turning Bead can absorb the cultivation skills of others, it is only a part of it, and it is gone after it is used up, and it cannot be used repeatedly.
He guessed that Yu Jingzi used the Spirit Bead to absorb the power of the ghosts and gods in his body to reshape the snake king and his wife and resurrect the two.
Although the cultivation ingested by the Spirit Turning Bead is not much, the power of the ghosts and gods is extremely strong, even if there is only one divine power, it is enough.
"Is it really gone?" He asked, his voice extremely low.
Seeing that he didn't answer, he suddenly laughed and said, "So, you followed your sister all the way to get that Nuwa stone, right?" ”
In fact, when he was in Shuicheng, he already knew that what Xihe did was for Nuwa Stone, and he also guessed that the lost totem was in her hands.
He originally ordered the red fox to lurk in the Sui Palace's mansion in order to find the Nuwa stone totem, but he knew that the red fox had the heart of rebellion, so he could only take action in person.
The Nuwa Stone contains the divine power of Nuwa, and the divine power of Nuwa is the power of compassion, although it is not stronger than the power of ghosts and gods, but it also has the ability to reshape all things.
At that time, he only pinned his hopes on the totem, and when he recognized the identity of the mountain ghost, he had other plans.
When he was in Snake Mountain, he suspected the identity of the mountain ghost, but at that time his attention was on Xihe and he didn't speculate too much about him.
It wasn't until he saw the sword shadow with his own eyes at the foot of the Endless Mountain that he knew that he was the Ancient Demon Venerable.
Since there is a ready-made method, there is no need for him to pursue a Nuwa stone totem who does not know the truth or falsehood.
Although he saw the Red Shaking Sword kill his parents with his own eyes, there was another vague shadow in the depths of his memory for the man in front of him, and the Demon Venerable in the eyes of the world was actually not what was heard.
He knew in his heart who was the real murderer of his parents.
The past is over, it's all clouds, and he's not a person who lives with hatred and memories.
He rummaged through all kinds of ancient books in order to find a way to resurrect his father and mother.
There are two ways to do this, but now it seems that there is only one....
"What about you?" He said, "Is it really just because you like her that you follow her all day?" ”
Yujingzi hung her head and did not answer.
In the midst of this moment's silence, there was a slight movement outside the door.
The two of them glanced at each other, Yujingzi immediately opened the door, looked left and right, in the middle of the night, the black lights in the inn were blind, and they didn't even see a shadow.
"Probably the wind." The mountain ghost said lightly.
It's better to be the wind.
