[196] Inquiry
If it was said that in the depths of the ghost captive's heart before, he would occasionally have a little resentment towards Xiao Shizhu, resenting the other party for letting him lose his country, and hating the other party for making him destitute overnight, then at this moment, these resentments are gone.
Xiao Shizhu used his benevolent side to make the ghost captive feel a warm current in his heart after hearing the words, and the only thing left in his heart was loyalty except gratitude.
Since then, the ghost captives have wholeheartedly opened up territory for him, overcoming obstacles and thorns without complaint.
Before the excitement in his chest calmed down a little, the ghost captives unequivocally bent his knees, knelt on the ground and shouted sincerely: "Xie Jiuyou King, long live the Nine Youyou King!" After finishing speaking, he immediately gave Xiao Shizhu three solid kowtows.
"If you want to thank me, give me a good beating of this Sanshou country who likes to join in the fun, kowtow and shout long live. Xiao Shizhu, who was still very unaccustomed to kowtowing to thank him, immediately pretended to be impatient and waved his hand indiscriminately: "Go and rest!"
"No. In Xiao Shizhu's soft snort, the ghost got up with a smile, and after bowing deeply, he turned to leave.
At this time, the moon is in the middle of the sky, and the faint soft moonlight pours from the sinkhole like cold flowing water, flowing in the sinkhole, and among the thousands of buildings in the Yuque Palace, there are countless dots and mottles.
Xiao Shizhu suddenly found that the jade tree in front of him began to gradually frost and dew on the trunk under the silver-white blurry moonlight, and the crystal dew drops were sparkling in the moonlight, looking clean and bright.
"Could it be that this is what Julong introduced just now, the jade tree condenses when it meets the light?" Xiao Shizhu couldn't help but be a little surprised, everything in front of him was so magical, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw it.
Under his gaze, the dew slowly slid down the trunk of the tree to the flowers and fruits of the jade tree, slowly gathering to the tops of the petals and fruits, but only trembling slightly in the wind without falling, and finally, over time, they slowly merged into the flowers and fruits of the jade.
Speaking of which, it is more appropriate for jade flowers and fruits to slowly absorb water droplets as if they are alive.
And every time there is dew in it, the jade flowers and fruits will become more vivid as if they have been moisturized.
Xiao Shizhu was excited, although he didn't dance and shout, but his body still couldn't help but tremble. He was about to touch the trunk of this magical jade tree, when King Kong had already brought the tent and other things with the soldiers and came to his side.
He had no choice but to stop for a moment and withdraw the hand that had been raised. It wasn't that he was afraid that King Kong would see him touch this jade tree, but that he felt that the jade tree was full of the power of nature, and it was even more powerful than the other six scenes.
Not only that, the power of nature in this jade tree echoed with the mysterious power in Xiao Shizhu's body, just like two old friends who had been separated for a long time and reunited again, and at such a close distance, Xiao Shizhu could even sense that these two forces were so excited, excited and joyful.
Under such circumstances, he didn't know if something bizarre would happen after he touched the jade tree, but if he wanted to explore the mysteries in the jade tree, it was better to do it quietly, and he must not be in front of him.
Otherwise, if he touched the body of the tree, he had some bizarre reaction and was seen by his ghost, and used it as a talking point to blow his beard in front of their seven aunts and eight aunts, which would inevitably lead to the matter quickly spreading in the underworld.
At that time, once it reaches the ears of Emperor Xudu, the other party will definitely be able to discover the fact that there is a mysterious power in Xiao Shizhu's body sooner or later, then Xiao Shizhu will inevitably come to a catastrophe.
King Kong walked up to him and stood still, looked at the fine jade bricks covered in the wide square, and asked reluctantly: "Lord, if you really want to set up a tent here, you have to destroy these jade slabs." ”。
"Then take it to the edge of the square. Xiao Shizhu was right to think about it, so he nodded and said, "Just find a place." ”。
"In addition, it was ordered that all the generals of the army should not be violent against the people in the city, officials, as well as the generals and palace slaves and maids in the palace, including the Su Tianju where the holy Maiden Yingying was located, and they should not rob each other's property. If anyone dares to knowingly commit a crime, he will immediately drag me out and behead him in front of the whole city. After thinking for a while, Xiao Shizhu said: "But the security here has not yet been decided, so for the sake of safety, it is better to distribute a ringing arrow to each sergeant; I'll leave the security work in the palace to you, and then I'll go and call Li Hao, Li Chai and Yang Dingfeng to help me. ”。 After talking a lot in one breath, I stopped.
"No. After answering, King Kong stood in place and lowered his head slightly, and after a little thought, he quietly suggested: "The monkey demon soldiers are good at assassination, so should you mobilize them to come to the palace to be a secret sentinel?" ”。
Xiao Shizhu was silent, and after a little consideration, he nodded in agreement with his proposal.
After King Kong got the order, he asked a few sergeants to set up a tent for Xiao Shizhu, and then turned around and left. After Xiao Shizhu saw him leave, he said to the soldiers around him: "You also go and help set up the tent, no one is allowed to approach Yushu without my order." ”。
"No!" the sergeants replied in unison, and then withdrew without asking too much......
Yingying, who was haggard and haggard, walked slowly to the west of the sinkhole, although she couldn't see with both eyes, but the gravel path under her feet had been walked countless times. So it didn't take long for her to find the road to Su Tianju between many halls.
It is a square courtyard with an area of only a dozen acres, and a lot of bald cedars and orchids are planted at the foot of the courtyard wall, and the faint fragrance spreads in the courtyard, adding a bit of elegance and tranquility to the courtyard.
When she stood in front of the gate of the jade pillar and opened a zhang away, she clearly sensed that there was a soldier of the Xiao family's army standing by the stone drums on both sides of the gate, so she snorted angrily.
Ying Ying strode forward, shouting impatiently: "I can't run, do I need to look at me like a prisoner?"
Before the two soldiers could say anything, Ying Ying snorted coldly again, crossed the threshold, and walked into the courtyard.
The two soldiers shook their heads a little helplessly, and then whispered: "This aunt's temper is really not small." ”。
"No, the ghost that the king likes has some ability to say. ”。
"I heard that she is going to be named a national teacher, but I don't know if it's true or not?"
Ying Ying was angry when she heard it, and for some reason, she always felt that Xiao Shizhu's refusal to kill was charity and pity her. And making her a national teacher is even more insulting to her.
Yingying, who can't beat Xiao Shizhu, wants to die, so that he can end up quiet. But she couldn't figure out what was wrong with herself, why did she always have ideas but didn't have the guts to implement them?
Maybe it's the mysterious power in Xiao Shizhu's body that makes her heart full of infinite curiosity, or maybe it's Xiao Shizhu's use of soldiers like a god, and her wrists are extremely strong and smart, which makes her a little admired, and she very much wants to find out about this male ghost.
Just when Ying Ying was thinking wildly, suddenly a little female ghost with five or six years old hair rushed towards her, shouting: "Master, you can come back: Xiaomei You." ”。
The little female ghost is also dressed in white, a little less indifferent and a little more immature face, a pair of big watery eyes, blinking; as soon as she saw Yingying, she threw herself into her arms, and suddenly wrapped her waist around Yingying with her hand, laughing and coquettishly very naturally, and her demeanor was very cute.
Ying Ying reached out and stroked her head, and a trace of pity appeared on her always indifferent face, and her lips gently opened and asked softly, "Have you listened to your senior sisters?"
Looking at this situation, it is not like a master and apprentice, but a little more mother-daughter affection.
"Yes. Xiao Si muttered, looked up at Yingying's cheeks for a moment, then grinned again, and replied affirmatively: "Xiao Si is the most obedient." ”。
"That's good. Ying Ying smiled and stroked her slightly biased little brain melon.
At this moment, another slightly older female ghost walked out of the main entrance of the brightly lit nine-story giant tower in the middle of the courtyard.
This female ghost is also dressed in white, with a flying fairy bun on her head, and the three-foot long sword on her back flashes with a faint green glow in the cold moonlight.
Xiao Si looked back at the female ghost who came by and shouted, "Senior sister." ”。
After the senior sister smiled at her, she walked up to Ying Ying and stood still, and saluted slowly, "Master, you can count yourself back." It's rumored that the Communist Workers' Republic is gone, isn't it true?".
As he spoke, his brows frowned slightly, and there was a hint of anxiety in his tone.
"It's true, can't you sense that the soldiers guarding outside the courtyard are definitely not our sergeants?" Ying Ying was only slightly stunned, and then said this very calmly.
Before that, she had expected her to be agitated and resentful when she told this fact, but she didn't expect the words to come out in such a hurry.
Xiao Si and her senior sister were stunned together.
Xiao Si was okay, after all, he was not very old, and after blinking his eyes full of curiosity, his expression returned to normal again. But Yingying's eldest disciple opened his lips slightly and wanted to speak, but he couldn't spit out half of the words for a long time.
"This is the will of God, and neither you nor I can go against the sky. Ying Ying sighed helplessly, and took the lead in breaking the silence and silence: "Our opponent is too terrifying, and the four protectors have all died at his hands. ”。
As soon as the words fell, she lowered her head, and a faint sadness appeared between her eyebrows.
"Go ahead. After a while, Ying Ying waved her hand to the disciples whose eyes were slightly red, and said weakly, "Let's go and rest first." ”。
The two disciples didn't dare to disobey the master, so they had to temporarily put away their grief and choked up, "Master, you should also rest early." After that, he held hands and turned away.
Before she could take a few steps, Ying Ying said again: "Before going to bed, go and send all the ancient books about soul qi to my study." ”。
