Following.

While Xihe was still asleep, the door was suddenly slammed open, and Xue Gu rushed to her bed to wake her up.

I drank wine last night, and I didn't sleep well, but I only heard the babbling in my ears and had a splitting headache.

She squinted her eyes and looked tired, "Aunt Xue, you have something to say, I'm going to vomit if I shake it again." ”

Xue Gu's eyebrows were anxious, her face was ugly, and her tone was three points heavier, "You are still in the mood to sleep, Master is almost awake!" ”

"What?!" Xihe immediately turned over and went to the ground and followed Xue Gu back to the Heavenly Palace.

Qin Ling Palace.

When Xihe walked to the door, Renhe Xianjun and Dijun were standing in front of Ling Yao's bed talking, with a solemn expression, she saw Ling Yao lying on the bed, her eyes closed, her face was pale, and she was stunned in place.

Could it be that because of what she said last night, Master was so angry that he stayed unconscious?

How so?

She asked Xue Gu, "Although Master is not in good health, how can he be angry like this by my words?" ”

Xue Gu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What did you tell Master last night?" ”

She couldn't answer.

Xue Gu said, "Although I don't know what you said, this matter has nothing to do with you, and Master was seriously injured to stay unconscious." ”

Her lips moved slightly, and she asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Demon fire."

These four words were like a bolt from the blue, and she couldn't believe it, "How is it possible?" ”

"If you think I'm lying to you, you can go in and ask Ren and Xianjun to know if I'm lying to you."

She didn't dare to go in, and she didn't dare to ask.

Xue Gu said in her ear, "I told you a long time ago that Du Gongzi was wrong, you never listened to me, insisted on staying by his side, and when he saw the master, he deliberately retaliated, which is really vicious." ”

"It can't be, it can't be that he did it." Xihe shook his head, looking incredulous.

Obviously everything was fine last night.

Did Master really have to go to him later?

At this time, Dijun and Renhe Xianjun looked in their direction, and Dijun beckoned them in.

After the two saluted, Xihe looked at the person on the bed, his eyes were red, and asked, "Dijun, Renhe Xianjun, how is my master's health?" ”

Ren and Xianjun said, "Fortunately, Xue Gu sent it back in time, and thanks to Di Jun's ability to stabilize the divine vein for Lingyao Xianzun, he escaped the catastrophe, but Xianzun's body is too weak to withstand the toss now, and you two have to take care of it." ”

Before Emperor Jun and Ren and Xianjun left Qin Ling Palace, Emperor Jun called Xihe away.

The main yang palace is the divine palace of Emperor Jun, and it is not allowed to enter without a summons.

Di Junping withdrew the deer and said to Xi He, who was kneeling on the ground, "Ah Nu, your master was injured by the fire of the demon and god of the Demon Venerable, you should know, right?" ”

Xihe nodded.

He said, "Actually, Lingyao Immortal Venerable has a part of the Emperor's instructions in the lower realm, it's not that the Emperor doesn't trust you and Xuegu, but your strength is really difficult to convince the Emperor, the matter of Yanlin last time was actually guessed by the Emperor, but you are on an important business, so the Emperor didn't embarrass you anymore." ”

He looked at her wrist and said slowly, "When you were in the main hall, Bendi recognized the bracelet on your right wrist, thinking that back then, Bendi's master, Qingru Goddess, was also deceived by this. ”

Hearing this, her eyebrows jumped and she was shocked.

Could it be that the relationship between the mountain ghost and the Qingru Priestess is not as simple as she thinks?

"I don't know if he told you when he gave you this bracelet that this bracelet can absorb people's spiritual power, and once you wear it, if the person wearing the bracelet does not die, this bracelet will not be able to take it off."

When Di Jun said this, he noticed that Xi He's hand was trembling, he chuckled, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you know why Emperor Ben ordered you, a little girl with mediocre qualifications, to look for Nuwa Stone?" ”

"I don't know."

It's also the weirdest thing about her.

"Because there is a special power in your body, this power can lead you to find the Nuwa Stone."

She was a little stunned, "How come?" ”

She had thought of all kinds of reasons for being sent, but she had never thought of this one.

Emperor Jun said, "Donghai Qionglin, you single-handedly shattered the remnants of the ancient beast chaos, why do you think it is?" ”

Xi He's eyelids trembled, which she really couldn't explain.

After what happened to Qionglin, when she thought back to what happened to Qionglin, she always felt that she was dreaming.

At that time, the mountain ghost blood curse was attacked and injured, and it was impossible for her to burst out with such a strong force, so she once wondered if she had been opened up to the four-body spiritual veins for a while.

Later, she went to an open forest to try it, but she couldn't use that power again.

The matter is closed.

"Xihe, this emperor doesn't know how long he has been lurking around you and Xue Gu, but it is certain that he is not kind, the world is rumored to be a battle of gods and ghosts, he was introduced by this emperor to the heavenly thunder and was wiped out on the spot, in fact, otherwise, the mountain ghost was born in the Tai Secluded Realm, conceived and the aura of heaven and earth, his birth and existence violated the laws of the Three Realms, so he also has an immortal and immortal soul."

Emperor Jun let out a long sigh and continued, "Eighty thousand years ago, Emperor Ben and Ling Yao did join forces to introduce him into the Firmament Array, and the Qingru Goddess sacrificed her body, but the power of the Demon Venerable's ghosts and gods was endless, and the Firmament Circle was broken by him before it lasted for half a moment, and later Emperor Ben designed to introduce him into the River Styx, and then he was frozen in the Lake of Ten Thousand Mirrors in the abyss of the River Styx. ”

Listening to this, Xihe remembered the scene when they first came.

Just under the River Styx.

She guessed that the blood curse on the mountain ghost probably came from Di Jun.

Di Jun looked at her again and said, "Xihe, you may not know that he has been frozen for more than 80,000 years, and the power of the ghosts and gods in his body has been completely lost, and he is close to you nine times out of ten because of the power in your body, and your bracelet is the best evidence." ”

Xihe immediately raised his head and asked unconvincingly, "Is what Di Jun said true?" ”

He sighed again and said, "Can't you even question the words of this emperor?" ”

"I don't dare."

He added, "If the ghost fire is seriously injured, there will be a purple mark on the body, which cannot be erased, even if you don't want to believe the words of this emperor, you can go and see the wound on your master's arm with your own eyes." ”

With that, he waved her hand to pull her off.

Xihe walked back to Qin Ling Palace from the Zhuyang Palace, which was originally a short journey, but it seemed to have walked for hundreds of years, and the clues that had been difficult to sort out before that suddenly collapsed.

Back in the Dao Palace, she knelt down in front of Lingyao's bed, and fell down one tear after another, blaming herself for the weak and powerless person on the bed.

She rolled up her master's sleeve, revealing a small purple burn mark.

She recognized.

"Master, I'm sorry, it's the apprentice's fault, it's the Xi and willfulness, it's the Xi and the disobedience to the master's words that will let you..."

She lay on the edge of the bed and curled herself into a ball, crying for a long time, she didn't wait for the master to wake up, but waited for another person to come.

Xihe was taken by him to a remote forest.

She struggled out of his arms, her expression pale, and said, "Demon Venerable, this is the Heavenly Palace, how dare you?" ”

When she called him "Demon Venerable", the mountain ghost paused and pursed his lips, "You also believe that this is what Benjun did?" ”

She said lightly, "The fire of the ghosts and gods can only be used by you, Lord Demon Venerable, what else do you have to quibble?" ”

"Haven't you always believed in Ben-kun?" He asked.

She lifted the bracelet on her right wrist and asked, "I ask you, what did you wear this bracelet for me in the first place?" Is it really just to protect me? Or is it to want something out of me? ”

He was silent.

Xihe smiled ugly, with tears in the corners of his eyes, "You really can't answer." ”

She wiped the tears from her face and smiled self-deprecatingly, "When Nagaki told me that there was something wrong with this bracelet, I still chose to believe you, I thought at that time that even if you really wanted to borrow this bracelet to draw some spiritual power from me, it would be nothing, because you saved me, many times, I thought you were sincere to me, until today I didn't know——"

She held up the blue lock bracelet in her hand and said, "This bracelet has always been just a tool to use me, and you went for the purpose of killing me when you first wore this bracelet for me, right?" ”

"I'm sorry."

"It turns out that what Di Jun said is true."

In an instant, she was dead to ashes, her eyes scarlet.

At this time, she only felt that the bracelet on her hand was very redundant, and insisted on taking it off knowing that she couldn't take it off.

Her heart hurt more than the pain in her hands.

It wasn't until there was blood on her wrist that the mountain ghost stopped her, "You...... Do you have to pick it? ”

"Isn't it possible that I'm waiting to die?"

His eyes were heavy, his voice was low, and he asked, "Didn't Emperor Jun tell you that you can't take off the Lock Spirit Bracelet after you put it on?" ”

"You can't take it off, can you?" Xihe laughed, and his eyes became extremely indifferent.

A sharp blade suddenly appeared in her hand, and just as she was about to take the knife, the mountain ghost stopped it with his bare hands

In an instant, the bubbling red blood left from his hands, and there was not a trace of movement on his face.

He explained in a muffled voice, "The Locking Spirit Bracelet can only play the role of sucking spirit when it is dripped into the blood of my palm, and the bloodshot in the bracelet has been taken back by me, and it will only protect you now." ”

"I don't need to."

Seeing that she insisted on picking it, he couldn't bear to continue hurting her, so he said, "I'll come." ”

In an instant, the lock bracelet disappeared from her wrist and returned to the mountain ghost's hand, Xihe looked at him coldly, and said word by word, "I don't want to see you again." ”

"Okay." He said softly.

He turned to hold the bracelet, and a sudden stream of heat rushed through his chest that passed through his throat, filling his mouth with the smell of blood, and a stream of blood spat out.

Xihe looked at his downcast figure, but he didn't dare to step forward.

Tasting a bitter and fishy taste in her mouth, she lowered her eyebrows and looked at her empty right wrist, which was nothing but two striking red blood marks.

Soon after returning to Qin Ling Palace, she was once again ordered by Emperor Jun to go to the Zhuyang Palace.

When she went, Di Jun was sitting in the golden phoenix seat with one hand on his forehead, looking down at the fold, and when he saw her coming, he beckoned her to come forward.

She saluted and asked, "Emperor Jun, I don't know what important things Zhao Xi and He will order today?" ”

Emperor Jun put down the fold in his hand, walked over and smiled warmly, "Xihe, this emperor knows that you and Xue Gu are worried about your master's body, and now that Lingyao Immortal Venerable is no longer in serious trouble, you and Xue Gu still take finding Nuwa Stone as their top priority, and when your master wakes up, this emperor will order someone to send a message to you." ”

Xihe's face was embarrassed, and he pleaded, "Dijun, can you allow Xihe and Xuegu to take two more days?" One day! ”
