The white bone cat jumped lightly from the pile of poisonous insects on its toes, and landed on the shoulders of the eldest princess of Mingyu, a person and a cat glanced at each other, obviously all eyes were empty, but Yun Qiushui really noticed that the two cold gazes exchanged glances in a strange way, which made her feel cold.

Then the eldest princess raised her wooden prosthetic leg and pointed at her, and the cat on her shoulder also made the same movement, she couldn't make a sound, her throat gurgled and made a terrifying sound, and she made a sharp voice through the cat's mouth: "That year, I was pardoned by the first emperor from the water prison of the bound king, and he expelled me from the imperial capital and could not return for life. ”

"Not only was my face ruined, but my body was also disabled, and I was guilty of being taken in, so I could only beg along the road, crawling on the ground with my hands on my hands, like a waste. ”

She laughed miserably, and that smile was even more terrifying against the white bones of half of her body: "I crawled all the way to Yudu, and I still met a few kind-hearted people in the wasteland, but they were also very poor, and they couldn't treat me, so they could only install this kind of prosthesis for me in the most rudimentary way, you see, it's these broken wood on my body, haha...... I am still reluctant to exchange it, it is a gift from the untouchables of the wasteland. ”

Her words made Mingxi couldn't help but be moved, and she was stunned for a while, pursed her lips, her light golden bright eyes flashed for a moment, and then slowly dimmed, still watching coldly.

"I've been walking for three years, from the Imperial Capital City to the North Shore City of Yudu, it's been more than three months, and I've walked for three whole years!" The eldest princess couldn't help but sob, although there were no tears falling from her eyes, the low crying tone made Yun Qiushui's heart twist like a knife, and her face was pale and stood in place, "I want to go to the Central Plains, I don't know why I have such boring thoughts, I want to go to the Central Plains, I want to see you." ”

As she spoke, she refocused her gaze on Yun Qiushui, but her expression gradually calmed down: "Hehe, in order to be able to go to the Central Plains, I took the risk of picking off the night pearl on my princess order, and in the three years of begging along the road, no matter how difficult the situation is, no matter how hard and tired, how cold and hungry I will keep the night pearl, because I know that it costs a lot of money to go to the Central Plains on the smuggling road, and this is my last bargaining chip." ”

"But my ugly appearance frightened everyone, and even the mercenary caravan would not take me, so I begged around there, and at last I found a fleet willing to take me, and they took the priceless pearl of the night, but would not give me even the most basic bed, and threw a broken mat and let me sleep by the swill in the kitchen. ”

Thinking of this, the eldest princess of Mingyu not only did not feel that kind of grievance anymore, but sighed extremely coldly, and continued: "I don't know how long the caravan has been on the sea, the days are very numb, but I am happy in my heart, I have been looking forward to it, waiting for the ship to dock, I still remember that it was a sunny morning, the sun was shining brightly on me, as if even people like me could be reborn." ”

She smiled self-deprecatingly, helpless for the childish idea she once had: "When I arrived in the Central Plains, I knew that the Kunlun Mountains were still far away, and few caravans would go there, I had no money, so I could only find an abandoned broken ship at the harbor wharf to live temporarily, I would use some royal magic, it was still okay to steal some money from ordinary people, I hid all the stolen things, and saved a little bit, I have arrived in the Central Plains, and it will be impossible to give up again." ”

"Later, I stole a strange box, it was very gorgeous in appearance, I thought it must contain some treasure, but when I opened it, it turned out to be all some spiders, centipedes and ants, they bit together, even if the box has been opened, it does not run out at all, I was in the king of the water prison was bitten by poisonous insects beyond recognition, looking at that kind of thing even more disgusting, I wanted to burn it, but the fire was a little bit up, the poisonous insects were not afraid at all, but the more they fought, the more courageous they became. ”

"I was immediately intrigued, so I simply set the boxes aside and watched them fit together, not noticing a strange man walking into the boat. ”

Mingyu raised his eyes and glanced at Yun Qiushui, thought about the man's outfit at that time, and continued: "He is dressed differently from ordinary Central Plains people, and there are a lot of exquisite silver jewelry hanging on his body, and his eyes are blue and blue, which looks a little tempting, not only did he not get angry at me for stealing his things, but asked me with great interest if I looked good, thinking that the poisonous insect could survive." ”

Mingyu touched his throat, turned his head helplessly and looked at the cat, the cat continued: "I was a mute, but at that time I didn't know where the interest came from, although I couldn't speak, but I wrote the answer with the ash on the ground standing with my hand, I said that the ants will win, because there are countless ants in the niche, and they are working together to deal with spiders and centipedes. ”

Then we waited together for the final result, and sure enough, as I said, the ants survived to the end. Mingyu laughed happily, as if he had returned to that night, "but he didn't seem very satisfied, he took out a medicine bottle from his arms and continued to sprinkle a few drops into it, and then the group of ants that began to work together became crazy again, they bit together and began to kill each other, there were tens of thousands of ants in the niche, and until dawn the next day, there were only a few hundred left. ”

"Practice Gu King?" Yun Qiushui couldn't help but blurt out, hearing these three words, Mingyu just smiled indifferently, Yun Qiushui continued, "There is indeed this kind of weird thing popular in the southern Xinjiang area of the Central Plains, it is said that the one who puts all kinds of poisonous insects together and lets them fight until the last one survives, it is called the 'Gu King', but this vein is very hidden, and the means are not bright, and it has always been with the Central Plains Wulin well water does not violate the river water." ”

"He is indeed a Hmong. Mingyu answered lightly, unfazed, "He is different from the Central Plains, not only is he not afraid of my ugly appearance, but curiously asks me what happened." ”

At this point, the eldest princess of Mingyu paused, there was a faint sour feeling in her throat, and she was silent for a long time before she said lightly: "Yun Qiushui, do you know how I felt at that moment? ”

Yun Qiushui didn't reply, she couldn't empathize with everything the eldest princess had experienced, but she saw a rare trace of clarity in the other party's empty eyes.

The eldest princess suddenly twisted her neck ninety degrees, looked at the cat on her shoulder, and reached out lovingly, stroking the cat with white bones, and the cat also made a delicate cry obediently, and shook the tail that also had only white bones left. fast

She remembered that day, even in the human purgatory of the water prison of the king, she did not cry silently, but in front of a stranger, she took off all her defenses, and brought all the grievances of these years together, happy and worried, happy that someone was willing to listen to her complaints, and worried that she didn't know if this hysterical venting was just a laughing stock for this person.

When the twilight of that day gradually fell, she was surprised to find that she was holding the hand of a strange man, crying all day, and she nervously withdrew her hand, for fear that this person would leave her like Feng Jiuqing.

The man's blue eyes are the opposite color of Feng Jiuqing, which is another extremely feminine, but she is no longer the eldest princess who is ignorant of the world, and she will no longer fall in love with a good-looking face at first sight.

"He gave me this cat, I'm mute and half-blind, this cat can see things for me and help me speak. The eldest princess suddenly spoke gently, lowered her eyes, and said softly, "I still don't know who he is, he gave me a sum of money, and I don't know how to bewitch a caravan, so that the caravan that was originally going to Jiangnan was diverted to Kunlun, and gave me this cat and a ...... before leaving. Astrolabe. ”

Sensing the crucial information in an instant, Mingxi's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he turned the jade wrench finger in his hand with a calm demeanor, and continued to listen quietly.

"I followed the caravan and finally went to the foot of Kunlun, Yunqiushui, that mountain is really high......" Mingyu was slightly shocked, and now I think about it and feel that the majesty is incomparable, the majestic snow-capped mountains that can't see the end at a glance, the sunlight pours down from the light clouds and mist, like a clear stream washing people's hearts, she stands under the mountains, feeling that she is as small as a particle of dust.

Mingyu's heart trembled rarely, suddenly sneered, stared at the woman opposite, and paused word by word: "I gave up at that moment, I went through a lot of hardships to get to the foot of Kunlun, but in the end I chose to leave, a dirty person like me is not worthy of trampling on that mountain, Yunqiushui, you are not worthy of that mountain." ”

Yun Qiushui clenched her teeth, the pain of being stabbed by such a reprimand, after returning to Kunlun alone, she locked her sword spirit into the sword box, and also locked her once proud heart into the darkness.

Daughter Yunxiao is her only light and her heaviest knot. As a Kunlun disciple, she knew that she shouldn't have returned alone with "Shen Yue", but as a mother, she just wanted to protect her daughter desperately.

The eldest princess of Mingyu saw through her thoughts at a glance, her voice did not move, she only let out a cold smile, raised her hand and pointed to the fourth thick golden curtain behind her, and reminded: "Look at the things painted on it, I know that Kunlun is known for its astrological academics, what might you see from this?"

Yun Qiushui turned around stiffly, this short standing had already made her whole body cold, but when she saw the complex stars painted on the curtain, cold sweat couldn't help but slide down her cheeks.

Frankly speaking, she only knows a little about astrology, but even a layman like her, who has half a bucket of water, can see the great evil omen in the astrological signs.

"That's the pattern on the astrolabe he left me. The eldest princess of Mingyu also looked at the curtain thoughtfully, not knowing what she was thinking, "He once told me that I would eventually have a 'wish come true', so when your daughter returned to Feiyuan and was involved in a coup d'état, I was so happy, I thought that day was finally coming......! But no! She was safe and sound, and even Mingxi got her wish!"

Mingyu's tone suddenly carried a little unwillingness and anger, and she didn't care that this kind of rebellious words roared unabashedly in front of the new emperor, but she quickly took it off to herself, and began to murmur uncontrollably: "But the astrolabe has not changed at all, it's not that his astrology is inaccurate, but there is no time at all!haha...... Hahahaha! Yun Qiushui, you come back now, you really let the prophecy of the astrolabe start to turn!"

She laughed wildly, laughing uncontrollably, and began to cough violently because of her broken body, just coughing and laughing at the same time, making the entire Star Picking Building fall into madness.

"Enough. Mingxi flicked his sleeves up, there was already anger in his eyes, and he whispered to the door, "Zhu Yan, come in." ”

Zhu Yan walked in and bowed down silently: "What does Your Majesty command?"

Mingxi coldly pointed at the eldest aunt who couldn't stop laughing, her eyes were full of irritability, and she said impatiently: "I have something to talk to Mrs. Yun alone, let her shut up." ”

"Yes. Zhu Yan smiled faintly without moving, and his palms changed slightly, but in an instant, the Star Picking Tower fell into a dead silence, Mingxi waved his hand, and he respectfully possessed himself and turned to go out.

Yun Qiushui looked at the eldest princess Mingyu with a complicated expression, she was trapped in the space technique, and she couldn't make any sound, but she could still clearly see the other party's crazy smile that spasmed all over her body, and there was a chill behind her.
