Chapter 69: A Visit to the Demon Capital
Holding Xiao Wu's portrait, Cui'er and Zi Xiao inquired, searched along the street for a long time, and came to a lively restaurant, Zi Xiao looked at Cui'er who was tired on her face, and said with concern: "Let's go, go in and take a break, and eat something by the way."
Cui'er smiled and nodded.
Zi Xiao rushed to a guy with two horns on his head and beckoned, "Find a quiet place for me."
"Okay, two sons, please do this", the guy with a smile on his face led Zixiao and Cui'er in men's clothes to a seat near the window.
"Two sons...... What would you like to eat?"
Zi Xiao looked at the dishes ordered on the table next to him, and explained to the guy, "It's the same as that table, plus two pots of wine."
After a while, the wine and food were served on the table, Zixiao poured wine for Cui'er, and the two looked at each other and drank it silently. Cui'er looked at the street outside the window worriedly, Zi Xiao sighed secretly and drank silently alone.
"Do you know, our martial and wise demon king...... Finally back."
The four people at the middle table who were talking loudly attracted the attention of Zixiao and Cui'er, they had red, yellow, green and blue faces respectively, which was very eye-catching.
The yellow-faced man said with disdain, "The Demon King has been here, how can you say that he is back again?"
"You know a fart, after leaving the demon queen, the heart of our demon king also followed...... He locked himself in the dormitory for ten years...... According to the people in the palace, the demon kings are haggard and can't look like they are."
The blue-faced man interjected: "Tsk, they all say that the demon king and the demon queen have a good relationship, and it is true that they dare to be affectionate?"
"Alas, think about it, I'm sorry for our demon king, the only sister-in-law is gone, and even the woman I love the most is gone, how can I not be sad?"
The green-faced man shook his head and sighed with emotion: "Alas, all these years, thanks to the great prince who has been struggling to support him, otherwise he would ......"
"Well, the eldest prince is the most filial, and he has served the demon king in person for ten years...... I also ask for enlightenment from masters from time to time, which is not ...... Our demon king finally figured it out and came to his senses, and a few days ago, he went back to the court to govern."
"That's what you said, the Demon King is back, right?"
"Of course it's not just that, you all know it, our Demon Queen was originally the Lingbo Fairy of the Nine Heavens, and the beauty of the person is like a jade carving......! And Fairy Lingbo fell in love with our heroic demon king, and eloped here, marrying our demon king without hesitation. ”
"Hehe, wouldn't that make Tianjun Lao'er...... It's shameless?"
"Isn't it, the Demon Queen was exempted from the immortal status by the cautious Heavenly Monarch, and even his family was sent to a remote place to suffer."
Zi Xiao's eyes were cold, his brows were furrowed, and his fists were clenched, he couldn't listen anymore, and he got up to punish the four monsters who dared to slander his father.
Cui'er hurriedly stretched out her hand to hold it, Zi Xiao glanced at her angrily, and finally her face was dark and gloomy, and she sat down again in a huff.
The four of them didn't notice Zixiao's anger, and continued to talk to themselves, "What's even more infuriating is that our demon king put down his face and sent a messenger to heaven to deliver a handwritten letter, begging Tianjun Lao'er to let the demon queen's family come to see him for the last time, but the result was ......", the red-faced man who talked eloquently took a sip of wine and pretended to be empty.
"What was the result?"
As a result, that day, Jun Lao'er was very hateful, narrow-minded and took revenge for personal gain, and he didn't pay attention to it at all, just pitiful...... The demon queen never saw her family until the end...... It is said that he was unable to close his eyes when he was dying...... Our demon king feels that he owes too much to the demon queen, so he has not been able to get out of self-blame and grief for ten years."
The yellow-faced man also approached, and said in a low voice: "My cousin is a guard in the palace, listen to him, the demon king is very different from before, every day, he is either busy with political affairs day and night, or he locks himself in the palace to concentrate on cultivation."
"Our demon king is so hard-working, it's holding back a lot of energy...... Presumably, he wants to avenge the revenge of the demon queen who can't close his eyes...... In my opinion, a battle between immortals and demons will be inevitable in the future."
"You're right, now, you can see the clues, during this time, the investigation of the Celestial Clan is very tight, and it is said that a lot of arrests have been made...... According to insiders, it is said that it is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let go of one, this posture ...... But it's unprecedented, and it seems to be going to be real."
"Hmph! that day Jun Lao'er was too moral, and it was time for our demon king to teach him a good lesson."
Zi Xiao couldn't bear it anymore, he drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, stood up with a "whew", and slammed the cup on the ground.
Everyone turned their heads to look at it in unison, and the four men who spoke were also startled by the sudden sound, Zi Xiao glared angrily, and the four people who didn't know why.
Cui'er hurriedly got up, grabbed Zixiao's arm, and shook her head to signal him not to be reckless.
Zi Xiao blushed angrily, his chest rose and fell violently, he gasped for a moment, and walked out of the restaurant angrily.
The four men who spoke were the second monk who was confused, and scolded behind Zixiao.
"Phew, neurosis!"
"Damn!
Cui'er threw down the money and followed out quickly, she understood that if she wasn't afraid of revealing her identity, Zi Xiao would have to beat up four monsters full of nonsense, but what they said still made Cui'er even more worried, and suddenly felt that Jiuyou City couldn't stay any longer, and every day she stayed, the danger would be one more point, and Cui'er was afraid that Zi Xiao's breath would be recognized and put him in danger.
Cui'er Zizi went elsewhere to look for Xiao Wu, and she went to Da Jingyang Palace, but Zi Xiao, who saw the clue, followed him again not long after.
After wandering in front of the gate of the Dajingyang Palace for nearly half a day, Cui'er finally saw an acquaintance, Tiger Roar, and saw that he was reprimanding a guard in front of the palace gate.
Cui'er asked Zi Xiao to wait behind a tree, she lowered her cloak and hat, and walked alone to the front of the palace gate of Da Jingyang Palace.
When the tiger roared and the guards saw outsiders approaching, they were on alert.
Cui'er walked closer, lifted the hat that covered half of her face, and shouted to Tiger Roar: "Tiger Roar, it's me...... I'm Cui'er."
Hu Xiaoleng was stunned for a moment, looked closely, and suddenly rushed forward, and said excitedly: "Cui'er, Cui'er, it's really you...... I haven't seen you for more than 3,000 years, are you okay?...... Hey, where have you and Xiao Wu gone in the past two hundred years? The palace has sent people to look for you, and it is really hard to find you! It's good to come back! It's good to come back...... Huh, where is the little dancer?".
Tiger Roar only knew that the eldest prince Cheng Lie had searched for Xiao Wu and Cui'er after they disappeared. But after that, Cheng Yeol arranged for the shadow priest to find secrets, and he didn't know anything.
Cui'er was also happy to see the old man, not to mention that when he was in Dajingyang Palace, Hu Xiao once admired him, although he had no intention, but he was good to himself, Cui'er still had a lot of gratitude.
"Little Dance, little master, no...... Back to Dajingyang Palace?"
Hu Xiao's face suddenly lost a smile, and he wondered: "Oh? Didn't you say that the Liukou slaughtered the White Deer Clan, and even the Holy Maiden Hall was also killed, did you escape with Xiao Wu and Xiao Lord?...... Don't...... The little lord is not with you?".
Cui'er listened to it, and was angry, it turned out that the Wuling clan deceived the demon clan in this way, in the face of the suspicious tiger roar, Cui'er stabilized her emotions, she didn't want to lie to the tiger roar, and deliberately diverted the topic, "Are there any people from the White Deer clan in the palace?"
Hu Xiao touched the back of his head, thought about it carefully, and suddenly said: "Yes, there is one, it is the maid that the eldest prince brought back from the Holy Maiden Temple, she said it, she saw you fleeing with Xiao Wu and the little master, and then the Liukou broke into the Holy Maiden Temple, she hid, and only then did she escape...... Later, the eldest prince took someone to look for you personally, and when he saw that she was pitiful, he took her back to the palace of Dajingyang."
Cui'er asked eagerly, "What's her name?"
"This?...... I really don't know", seeing Cui'er's anxious face, Hu Xiao said with relief, "Cui'er, this is easy, I'll order the guards now, bring her to meet you, you wait a while", after Hu Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and ordered the guards in front of the door to go to Wude Palace to find someone.
While waiting, Hu Xiao and Cui'er gossiped, "Since the second prince left, Long Teng has returned to the eldest prince, and I have been sent to be the chief of the guards of the Great Jingyang Palace."
"Not bad! It's majestic, congratulations on your promotion."
Hu Xiao glanced at Cui'er a little shyly, and said softly, "Where, where...... Cui'er ...... Since you left, I've ...... In fact...... I miss you so much!".
Cui'er bowed her head and was silent, she couldn't face Tiger Roar's sincere and hot gaze.
Cui'er's departure has made Tiger Xiao sad for a long time, more than 3,000 years, he still thinks of her often, and the loss and recovery made Tiger Xiao a little emotional, he suddenly grabbed Cui'er's hand, his face was red, and he said with affection: "Cui'er, you ...... When I come back this time, don't go, I'm ...... I have the ability to ...... Take care of you".
Faced with such a frank and straightforward expression, Cui'er was very flustered, "Tiger roar, thank you...... Your good intentions, but ...... I have to ...... Continue to look for the little dance master".
Zi Xiao stood under the tree and kept stretching his neck to look at the palace gate.
Hu Xiao noticed Zi Xiao and said in a depressed mood: "Cui'er, that little white face is with you?"
"Oh, that's my friend, he'...... Stay with me...... I'm looking for a little dance master."
"Really? What do I think...... He doesn't look like a demon person?", the tiger roared suspiciously, and he said as he walked towards Zixiao.
Cui'er grabbed Tiger Roar and pointed in the direction of the palace, "Tiger Roar, look, they are back."
I saw the guards bring a light woman dressed in the palace maid's costume and walk towards them.
"What a cocker!"
Cui'er recognized that she was Xiao Wu's playmate when she was a child, and she and her in the Holy Maiden Temple, taking care of Xiao Wu's real Ke'er together.
Zhen Ke'er came to Cui'er's side, looked at it, threw herself into Cui'er's arms, and cried bitterly, "Cui'er! Cui'er! Is it you......?"
"It's me! It's me! It's good that you're alive...... Great."
Cui'er hugged Zhen Ke'er tightly and burst into tears. The home is gone, and they can meet again after escaping death, and the two are full of joy and sorrow in their hearts.
After crying for a while, Zhen Ke'er raised her teary eyes, walked around, and asked, "Cui'er, where is Xiao Wu?"
"Xiao Wu, she ......", Cui'er saw the tiger roaring beside her, and felt that it was inconvenient to say too much, so she wanted to stop talking.
Zhen Ke'er shook Cui'er's arm and asked anxiously, "Cui'er, what do you say, Xiao Wu?"
Seeing a team of carriages and horses coming in the distance, Tiger Roar said to Cui'er and Zhen Ke'er, "It's the eldest prince who has returned to the palace, I'll go over and take care of it...... I'll come back later."
"Okay, you get busy first", seeing the tiger roar leaving, Cui'er whispered to Zhen Ke'er: "Me and Xiao Wu...... Separated, I ...... I'm also looking for a little master."
"What? Xiao Wu isn't with you?"
Cui'er caught a glimpse of the tiger roar with a suspicious face, and kept scanning Zixiao, her heart couldn't help but rise, and she couldn't hold her breath, she also understood, Zhen Ke'er hadn't seen Xiao Wu, it seemed that Xiao Wu hadn't returned to Da Jingyang Palace, Cui'er changed the topic, and asked eagerly: "Zhen Ke'er, when you left the White Deer Clan, you saw Xiao Feng's little master?"
Zhen Ke'er's face turned pale all of a sudden, and her face was full of shock: "Xiao Feng?...... You say Xiaofeng is a little master, do you ...... He's still alive?".
Cui'er felt that in front of the gate of Da Jingyang Palace, it was too dangerous for Zixiao, so she replied urgently and simply: "If nothing happens, it should be alive...... Xiao Feng suffered a head injury, and I hid him in the dark room, but the dark room was opened, and he is now gone."
When Zhen Keer heard this, she suddenly felt weak in her legs, stumbled and almost fell, Cui'er hurriedly reached out to support her, she knew that Zhen Keer and Xiao Feng were a pair of little lovers.
Zhen Keer's tears poured out like the tide of the embankment, she always thought that Xiao Feng had also died in the massacre, missing and remembering him for nearly two hundred years, and the news that Xiao Feng might still be alive was like a thunder explosion in the clear sky, and Zhen Keer trembled and didn't know what to do, she suppressed the shock, and trembled and confirmed again, "Cui'er, Xiao Feng...... It's true...... Maybe still alive?".
"Really!"
After getting the exact answer, Zhen Ke'er's face was filled with sadness and joy, and she lay in Cui'er's arms and cried.
Cui'er was very uneasy in her heart, looking at the convoy that was getting closer and closer, she felt that it was most appropriate to avoid it quickly, firstly, Zixiao was in danger, and secondly, Zhen Ke'er was on an errand in the palace of the king, and she couldn't cause trouble.
Cui'er shook her hands, and the shoulders of Zhen Ke'er, who was crying, said anxiously: "Zhen Ke'er, don't cry, it's really inconvenient to talk here, you go back first, tomorrow you want to find a way out of the palace, come to Tongfu Inn to find me, and I'll talk to you in detail...... Remember, don't tell anyone," Trill said, pulling down the hat of her cloak and walking away with her head down.
"Okay, I'll go early tomorrow morning", Zhen Ke'er wiped her tears and shouted at Cui'er's back.
Zhen Ke'er and Cui'er said goodbye to this scene, and the man who was lifting the corner of the curtain in a luxurious car was all in his eyes, and Cheng Lie's eyes suddenly became fierce from the previous carelessness.
Riding on the golden lion beast, a majestic young general wearing dark armor and a bright red cloak was also looking around boredly. The scene of the boy in the cyan cloak and a palace maid hugging and hugging and reluctant also fell into his sight.
Looking at the graceful and white and elegant posture of the little palace maid from a distance, thinking about the gorgeous and coquettish witches around him, Chenyou felt that the beauty of this white lotus flower was even more itchy.
Although he has become the former general of the demon clan, he has never dared to touch the women in the palace. Maybe today's handle can give him what he wants. Thinking of this, Chenyou's half-squinted Danfeng's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth hooked a wicked smile.
Chenyou turned his head sideways and whispered to arrange the generals around him, pointed at Zhen Ke'er, and asked him to check the situation of this little palace maid immediately.
A gust of wind blew Cui'er's cloak and hat away, and Chenyou's angular face was full of curiosity, and he looked at it from a distance, wanting to see what kind of bold person he dared to seduce the "White Lotus" in the palace.
It didn't matter if he looked at it carefully, Chen You suddenly gasped.
It's her! The maid Cui'er who fought with him and escaped with the big-eyed Xiao Wu, they were the only remaining witnesses to his slaughter of the White Deer Clan, his father sent someone to find them for nearly two hundred years, but he didn't expect to be sent to the door today, Chenyou really wanted to rush up and kill Cui'er immediately.
Chenyou was nervous in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything, after all, there was still the eldest prince sitting in the car behind, and he didn't want the slaughter of the White Deer Clan to be revealed.
Chen Lie's gloomy and fierce face hurriedly beckoned the deputy general to see the sorrow, and explained in his ear, "Go! Follow the one in the cyan cloak, you must be captured alive, and the same party will also be taken down."
Cui'er put on her hat again and walked to Zixiao's side, she always felt that there was an eerie light staring at her, and she turned her head sharply, her eyes were facing Shang Chenyou's fierce gaze.
Cui'er will never forget these bloodthirsty eyes, he is the culprit who destroyed the entire Bailu clan, and she is the enemy who she does not share.
Zi Xiao saw Cui'er trembling all over, her lips pursed, her eyes burning with raging anger, and she stared directly at the convoy with tears in her eyes.
Seeing Cui'er's luck in her hands, Zi Xiao hurriedly grabbed her wrist and shook her head to stop it.
"That's him...... led the troops to slaughter...... White Deer Clan".
Cui'er said, tears gushing out, she knew in her heart that she must not do it at this moment, she must not bring Zixiao into a desperate situation.
Zi Xiao could understand Cui'er's resentment, continued to grab her wrist, and whispered, "I guessed, but...... Avenge...... Now, it's not the time", Sao saw a team of demon soldiers, and hurried in their direction, Zi Xiao said vigilantly: "Cui'er, we may have been discovered."
After all, she is a female hero, although Cui'er has a fragile gaffe, she will never act recklessly regardless of the occasion, and in the face of family hatred, she is not qualified to be fragile and capricious.
Zi Xiao and Cui'er looked at each other, their minds were clear, and they left together with green smoke, and the dozen or so demon soldiers also turned into black smoke and chased after them.
Back in the inn room, Zi Xiao said to Cui'er, who had regained her senses, "Here, you can't stay any longer, you clean up, let's go back to the Medicine Master's Mansion first, and then make other plans."
As he was speaking, he heard a commotion in the hall of the inn, and a black-faced red-haired demon general rushed in with a dozen demon soldiers.
Zi Xiao looked through the crack in the door and said, "It's really fast!", after speaking, he pulled Cui'er, who was still packing up, and turned into a green smoke and left.
As soon as Zixiao and Cui'er left, the door was rudely kicked open from the outside, and the demon general Ghost was the first to rush in with a knife.
