Volume 1: Morning and Twilight Chapter 45: The Mysterious Black Shadow: The Mark of Death
Anyway, she has long been tired of this unfair world, but she is really incompetent and can't protect the princess.
The people in the Mingde Palace were all shocked by the bottomless eyes of Shangchi Zhaoyue, and hurriedly lowered their heads and did not look at him, for fear that their secrets would be seen through by him.
"Puff...... the man couldn't help but sneer, "You palace people really have a lot of thoughts." ”
His words frightened those palace maids and eunuchs almost knelt, but the queen spoke out to relieve the siege, "Everyone has their own helplessness in this world, so don't scare these palace maids and eunuchs." ”
Her words made Chi Zhaoyue notice this queen mother who had been observing the development of the situation since just now and rarely spoke.
looked at the past, but found that he couldn't see through this unfathomable queen.
Tut.
In front of the Son of Heaven, Chi Zhaoyue actually made such a displeased voice, if it weren't for the fact that he saved Wen Yuan, the emperor would definitely treat him for a big crime of disrespect.
Naturally, the matter of Huang Sha holding Wen Yuan hostage would not end so hastily, but she also bought Liel a little time for the Desert King to enter the capital.
The stakes were so high that the emperor still decided to summon the king of the desert to the capital to discuss, but the outcome was definitely up to him.
*
On the way back to the princess's mansion with Shen Huaiyan, Chi Zhaoyue mentioned the eccentric queen, and he asked one by one: "Why can't I see through the queen's heart?" ”
This is his innate ability, not an acquired witchcraft, and he has never missed it before today.
As long as he wanted to, even a great demon like Shen Huaiyan, who had cultivated for thousands of years, was like an open piece of paper in front of him, and all his thoughts jumped on the paper.
"Could it be that the Empress is a cultivator who is better than us?" He rubbed his chin for a while and asked Wen Yuan, "Has the queen ever shown her ability in front of you?" ”
The answer was indeed negative, "As far as I know, although the queen mother has spiritual roots, she is not a cultivator, she married the imperial uncle at the age of fifteen, became the queen at the age of twenty-two, and has been living within the high walls. ”
"Then why can't I see through her......" Even the emperor and the king of Dingnan, he saw through it at a glance.
Although Chi Zhaoyue didn't understand the secret, she was sure that there was a big secret hidden in this palace.
After Ping'an sent Wen Yuan back to the Dingnan Palace, Shen Huaiyan pulled Chi Zhaoyue and talked about the place he felt strange today, "Can you sense the demonic aura on the emperor's body?" ”
"Nature."
He took Shen Huaiyan to his hiding place.
Drilling into the mist in the green bamboo forest on the outskirts of the city, the two came to a damp cave, although it was not the first time they came, but Shen Huaiyan still didn't like it.
bumped Chi Zhaoyue's shoulder and quipped: "I said that you are not poor, so you can't choose a better place." ”
"There is no way, there is a pool of natural spring water, you can see the person's past life, and it complements my ability."
He poured his memories of today into that pool of spring water, and soon Wen Yuan's past life emerged on the calm water.
"Cold palace abandonment, no mistake, continue."
When looking at the emperor again, a golden dragon floated on the water, and the two said in unison, "It turned out to be the reincarnation of the golden dragon......
Sure enough, the destiny that comes with it is different.
The second is the king of Dingnan, "Another golden dragon?" "Double Dragon is reincarnated, it seems that the Dragon Kingdom is destined to be strong in the hands of these two brothers.
In the end, it was the queen's turn, but when Chi Zhaoyue injected the memories of the queen, only a thin black smoke floated on the water.
The black smoke cleared in an instant, and neither of them noticed that there was a person standing behind them.
It was only when Shen Huaiyan turned around to think that he discovered the person hidden in the dark.
The man's body was surrounded by the same black smoke on the water surface as just now, and his voice was rough and low, but Shen Huaiyan could hear that it was the voice that had been changed by demonic magic.
Unexpectedly, both he and Chi Zhaoyue smelled the demonic aura contaminated by the emperor on the body of the black shadow.
The two knew that they were not opponents, and they were vigilant and retreated step by step.
The black shadow slowly approached them, bringing a strong sense of oppression that the two demons who had lived for thousands of years had never seen before.
"What do you want?" Chi Zhaoyue was too lazy to stalemate with the black shadow, so he simply spoke directly, and if it was a big deal, he would die, anyway, he had lived enough.
Xu didn't expect him to be so bold, and he could obviously feel that the black shadow was stunned for a while, and then laughed maniacally, "The deity has lived for 30,000 years, and it is the first time I have met a little baby who dares to face me like you." ”
30,000 years......
What is this concept......
"The deity has no thoughts about the lives of the two of you, but just wants to remind you that you shouldn't be in charge...... Don't meddle. The black shadow stretched out his withered finger and pointed at the spring, and the picture on it immediately changed to the emperor and the queen.
It seems that this black shadow is really related to the demonic aura on the emperor's body. Chi Zhaoyue and Shen Huaiyan glanced at each other, and they both saw the same idea in each other's eyes.
"The deity has indeed been hidden in the palace as you think, but the deity has no interest in this world, just to protect one thing, so the two of you had better not trouble the deity, otherwise it will ......"
The black shadow raised his hand out of thin air, without touching the two of them, but it easily made Shen Huaiyan fall into suffocating despair, "It's easy for the deity to let you die. ”
Chi Zhaoyue's hexology was completely ineffective in front of the black shadow at this time, "You just need to know that the deity will not cause any harm to the Dragon Kingdom. After today, it is assumed that you have never seen the deity. ”
As the words fell, the black shadow turned into black smoke and disappeared into the cavern.
After he left, Shen Huaiyan regained his respite.
Rubbing his neck on his hands, his eyes were full of horror, "It's too strong......"
When he stopped what he was doing, Chi Zhaoyue saw clearly that Shen Huaiyan's neck was pinched red.
But just now the black shadow looked so calm, "Since he said that he will not have an impact on the Dragon Kingdom, then let's not dwell on the matter of demon breath anymore, otherwise it will not be beneficial to you and me." ”
Shen Huaiyan thought that he had lived long enough, but how could the dead and wounded of those great demons he knew in the past hide a demon who had lived for 30,000 years in the Dragon Kingdom.
He couldn't ignore such a powerful existence, but the blatant investigation would only attract the black shadow just now, so ...... Be quiet......
Needless to say, Chi Zhaoyue only glanced at it and knew what this kid was thinking, "You are really not afraid of death." ”
"You think that the demons who have lived for 30,000 years may be able to become friends and help us find the secret of eternal life."
The eternal life in his mouth is actually for Wen Yuan.
But the two didn't know that the black shadow didn't go far, hiding in another cave and observing them through the demon mirror, "Eternal life? Scold...... She didn't need to. ”
The next day, Shen Huaiyan found Wen Yuan and told her what happened in the cave after she left yesterday.
"You said the demon has something to protect in the palace?" Wen Yuan felt ridiculous, but seeing that Shen Huaiyan looked nervous, she also paid attention to it.
"Probably not, there are so many demon hunters in the palace......"
But Shen Huaiyan's words immediately made Wen Yuan sober up, "The demon hunter in the palace can't even detect the breath of me and Ah Yue, how can he compete with a demon who has lived for 30,000 years?" ”
It's really ...... when you think about it
But what if this demon is going to attack the emperor and queen? How could she sit idly by.
"Yuanyuan, don't get excited, at present, although the emperor is contaminated with the breath of demons, there is nothing wrong with it, you can rest assured, I think the demon is not lying to us."
"But I always feel uneasy about such a powerful demon hiding in the palace." Who said it wasn't, let alone her, even Shen Huaiyan felt faintly uneasy.
But what is the way, it is not easy to smell his breath, and it is impossible to find him in the huge palace.
"That's it, let's take one step at a time, if he does something to harm the Dragon Kingdom, we will make plans again."
Only then did Wen Yuan know that the world he was familiar with was not as safe as he thought.
Shen Huaiyan agreed with her words, but did not forget to advise: "You also have to protect yourself, yesterday it was because you forgot to wear the ring I gave you that you were held hostage by that woman, you must wear the ring well...... You know? ”
"I know~It's really verbose~" Having said that, I didn't see Wen Yuan's impatient expression at all, but a cute face when my little daughter was coquettish.
Shen Huaiyan was amused by her, took Wen Yuan in his arms, and gently stroked her long hair, "Be obedient...... Don't run to the palace during this time, I'm afraid that thing will not be good for you. "After all, I almost strangled myself to death last night.
Shen Huaiyan is still a little jealous, if he is a loveless and light person like Chi Zhaoyue, then he will die if he dies, and he will be reincarnated to continue to be a little fox.
But now it's different, he has people to love, and he can't give up everything he loves.
At this time, in a secret room in the palace that no one discovered, the black shadow yesterday used witchcraft to leave a mark on Wen Yuan's body.
The moment the mark was planted, Wen Yuan, who was held in Shen Huaiyan's arms, began to twitch violently and foam at the mouth, "Yuan Yuan! Yuanyuan, what's wrong with you? Yuanyuan! ”
Shen Huaiyan hurriedly picked up Wen Yuan and ran into her bedroom, "Chunhua, go find a doctor to take a look at Yuan Yuan!" ”
Chunhua only glanced at Wen Yuan who was lying on the bed, and she was also sweating profusely, but when she was about to go out to find Imperial Doctor Hu, Wen Yuan woke up from the bed by herself.
"I just ......"
She seemed to be dying just now, and Wen Yuan didn't want to experience that feeling of dying again, but now she felt relaxed.
After touching her body up and down, Wen Yuan only felt an unprecedented feeling coming, but she couldn't tell where this feeling came from, so she could only ask Shen Huaiyan on the side what happened to her just now.
"Miss, you're scared us to death, you were convulsed just now, and you kept foaming at the mouth...... How do you feel now? ”
How does it feel?
Honestly, she feels ...... right now Awesome......
