Chapter 162: Soul Melting
The east courtyard of Danzhen Palace was already overcrowded, and all the wings were full of patients, and even the originally open-air courtyard had to temporarily set up tents.
Xiao Qianye slowed down and walked over, unable to believe what his eyes were seeing now, the patients were walking in groups in the hospital, some were stupidly picking up the stones on the ground and playing, some were looking at the sky in a daze and talking to themselves, and some were holding hands in a circle, not knowing what they were doing.
This is the elite garrison of the forbidden army?
"Ah...... You ......" someone grabbed his sleeve and stared at him non-stop, his face was already on his nose, and he laughed innocently, "Little man, little man, on the shoulder, dancing ......"
"Come back! Before he finished speaking, he was carried back by the old doctor next to him, raised his eyes and found that it was him, and quickly explained, "Don't don't, don't misunderstand, these people have brain damage and hallucinations, and often see strange villains in the yard, as well as eight-legged cats and six-winged birds, all of which are hallucinations, don't take it to heart." ”
"Qianye, these people are brain damage caused by Gu ants, and it is difficult to recover. Yun Xiao nervously grabbed him, couldn't help but hold her breath, the patients didn't seem to have serious injuries, they were all strong men, but they all looked dull and moved slowly, like demented wooden people.
"Pavilion Master Xiao, why are you here?" The voice of a female doctor came from the side, Xiao Qianye came back to his senses, only to see several patients dancing around a short woman, dancing on tiptoe, the woman smiled gently, touched the hair of several people like a mother, and then quietly walked over, habitually wiped the sweat of his palms on his clothes, and sighed: "Let you see the smile, the big palace master is really, why don't you find someone to accompany you......"
"Pavilion Master Xiao, Pavilion Master Xiao is waiting for me!" Before she could finish speaking, Alan shouted all the way and chased after him, grabbing his hair and smiling, "Palace Master Qiao asked me to take you there, come, come with me here." ”
"Alain, haven't you delivered the medicine tonight?" The female doctor saw him, and her brows finally opened, and Alain's face was full of worry, muttering, "There will really be no time, Aunt Ying, I will trouble you to wait more tonight." ”
"Hey...... It's okay, you guys get busy first. The female healer just sighed, obviously knowing that something big had happened again, and it was not good to urge her.
"Why are there so many people here?" Xiao Qianye swept around, frowning, Alan rolled his big eyes, and replied with his face raised, "Didn't you see that a few days ago, it was the same as the crowd of people, and now there are a lot fewer patients than before, and thousands of people in the forbidden army garrison have been eroded by Gu ants, and Danzhen Palace is such a big place, it is too crowded to live, and then the palace master transferred some of the people with mild symptoms to Syracuse, and now the rest are particularly serious." ”
Xiao Qianye hesitated to sweep around, Aunt Ying had already returned to the sick crowd, and coaxed people back to sleep in a good voice, those soldiers who were majestic not long ago were like well-behaved and obedient children who were dragged back to the tent by her.
"In order to facilitate treatment, the main palace master arranged all the soldiers of the forbidden army in the east courtyard, and the other patients were also transferred to the west courtyard and the middle courtyard. Alain explained eloquently, shaking his head, letting out a low sigh as he watched the eyes of the patients around him.
"Hee-hee-......" There was a sound of laughter in the crowd, and someone raised his finger to Yun Xiao sluggishly, and muttered blankly, "Bird, bird......"
"After all this, can you still see me as a bird?" Yun Xiao muttered depressedly, letting out a long breath from her chest.
"Ah, don't mind, girls, they have mental damage, they have problems with their brains, and they may not be as old as me now! I'll let them go and rest first!" Alain hurriedly waved his hand, ran to the hospital with a cigarette, and waved his hand to signal the doctors in the east courtyard to quickly take the patient back to their respective beds.
"Can it be cured?" Xiao Qianye hurriedly glanced at the orderly East Courtyard, with a worried look on his face, Alan turned his head and thought seriously for a moment, and said in embarrassment, "I can't say it either, but looking at the meaning of Palace Master Qiao, it is probably difficult to heal, and it will leave some lifelong damage, and it is okay to be lighter, and you can barely recover into an ordinary person after a few more years of recuperation, but these serious ...... Maybe he's just a fool if he's cured. ”
"Is it so serious?what about the Star Saintess, she can't help it?" Xiao Qianye subconsciously asked, Alan had already walked to the door and paused, "She? She has been locked up in the Star Picking Tower by Her Majesty, and we don't know what to do, come, the person you are looking for is in this house, Duyun Gongzi deliberately greeted us before, so he was specially assigned a separate ward, but Xiao Pavilion Master still has to be careful, that person doesn't seem to be normal." ”
Alain softly pushed open the door, the room was dark, although there was a candlestick on the table, but it seemed that it had never been lit, the curtains were tightly pulled and could not let in a trace of sunlight, Alain stuck out his tongue, feeling a cold along the back spine all the way to the brain, involuntarily shivered, retreated a few steps backwards and avoided a few steps, and then stretched out an index finger and pointed, muttering in a low voice: "You, you go in and find him by yourself, he usually doesn't speak, he is deaf and blind and sits there in a daze every day, I ...... I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you. ”
Xiao Qianye looked into the house, the room was very small, and could only accommodate a bed, a table and chairs, and Mu Xizhao just sat on the bed very calmly, like a cold sculpture.
Perhaps sensing the familiar aura outside the door, the man suddenly moved, his haggard face turned slightly, and although he couldn't see it, his eyes looked at him brightly.
Xiao Qianye casually locked the door of the room, and the room suddenly darkened, Mu Xizhao pondered for a moment, and when he confirmed that he really noticed the long-awaited feeling, he slowly stood up, he supported the edge of the bed with one hand, his steps were a little trembling, and his body seemed to have no strength at all, although he was silent, his expression revealed amazing perseverance, and he struggled to grope his way up step by step.
At this moment, what appeared in front of Xiao Qianye's eyes was in the darkest bottom prison of the King Binding Water Prison, and the person who was cornered and had no way out desperately grabbed himself, put down all his dignity and rejection, and said two words to him - "Save me".
What kind of despair did it take to completely collapse this man who once hated himself to the bone?
Xiao ...... Pavilion Master?" After finally coming to him, Mu Xizhao sensitively kept a distance of more than three steps, not daring to get closer, Xiao Qianye nodded, realizing that this person was now blocked by the Ten Swordsmanship, and hurriedly took the initiative to step forward and hold his hand, Mu Xizhao shook him off in horror, his face turned pale as paper, swallowed foam, tried to calm his emotions, and then raised his hand to hold his chest, and said with a short breath, "It's about to ...... Fusion, Pavilion Master Xiao, I'm about to lose control of myself. ”
So fast? Xiao Qianye was startled for a moment, and then looked at Mu Xizhao, his face suddenly stiffened at this time, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching, it seemed that he wanted to say something to him, but he was stopped by another powerful force.
"Ah Xiao!" Xiao Qianye took a step back, almost instinctively looking at the woman beside him, Yun Xiao had already sensed that something was wrong at the moment when Mu Xizhao appeared abnormal, and the spiritual power under his palm once again hooked up the golden sword array, and in an instant, the purest and purest aura from Kunlun shattered the gloomy qi that had been accumulated in his body for a long time, and Mu Xizhao coughed violently, staggering and unsteady.
Yun Xiao supported him, and the breath of the spirit phoenix in his body really showed rejection again, Mu Xizhao's cheeks turned from white to red, and he coughed up a mouthful of black blood in shock!
"Huh...... Ha ha. Mu Xizhao laughed strangely, he raised his head, glanced at Xiao Qianye with blind eyes, and grinned, "Pavilion Master Xiao, my body was seriously damaged by you, as compensation, this person will give me back how ......"
"Gao Chengchuan!" Immediately heard a familiar tone from it, Xiao Qianye couldn't help but clench his sword, and looked at Mu Xizhao in front of him vigilantly, his brows furrowed, looking extremely painful, buried his face deep in his hands, and then fell to his knees in despair. 85
"Pavilion Master Xiao is still young, and he is highly respected by His Majesty, why should he have trouble with me as an old man?" Mu Xizhao chuckled, and after a few seconds, he frowned vigorously again, holding his head with one hand.
"Hey, ......" Yun Xiao didn't dare to act rashly, the sword array was fluctuating violently, which also indicated that that the powerful force was likely to break through the encirclement.
"Leave me alone...... Mu Xizhao struggled to say a word, and suddenly his right hand was raised uncontrollably, his face was clearly disgusted, but the corners of his mouth raised an unnatural weird smile, and continued: "I have raised you for so many years, I picked you up from the corpse, and it is time for you to repay me, but not only did you not repay me at all, but you also tried to betray me and flee to that person! ”
As he spoke, his empty eyes stared in horror at his raised palm, and he tried with all his strength to put it down, but his right hand did not obey him at all, and a loud slap fell heavily on his cheek.
Although this sudden slap was inflicted by his own hand, the force was bizarrely heavy, instantly making Mu Xizhao's face red, leaving five distinct fingerprints.
"Damn!" he still said inexplicable words in his mouth, and then his left hand couldn't help but rise, "While the soul melting technique has not fully taken effect, I still can't feel the pain on your body, let me teach you a good lesson." ”
"Stop!" Seeing that the slap was about to fall again, Yun Xiao rolled over and hugged Mu Xizhao, holding his hands firmly, but the strength of this body was amazing, he just struggled a little and directly shook off the woman on his body, cold sweat rolled down his pale and handsome cheeks, and there seemed to be a slight light in the depths of his lifeless eyes, and he tried to open his mouth, and spit out a few words in a hoarse voice: "Leave me...... Far away, don't ...... Near. ”
He raised his hands and began to slap himself one left and one right, laughing as he played.
Yun Xiao was directly thrown out by him and smashed against the wall, this person's thin body was obviously also modified by drugs, otherwise how could there be such an amazing strength like a beast?
"That's enough!" Xiao Qianye snorted coldly, the Likong Sword finally struck, and the sword qi swept through forcing Mu Xizhao to withdraw his hand and forcibly stabilize his body, before he could stand firm again, a bright golden light flashed on the body of the Likong sword, and there seemed to be some ancient spell quietly running.
Mu Xizhao was a little dazed, feeling as if his body had been torn apart by something, and his already divided consciousness was even more shattered at this moment.
"If you wait for me a little longer, I will definitely save you. Xiao Qianye whispered in his ear, then let go and strode away, his wrist turned again, and the formation of the Ten Swordsmanship was heavier, and the cold air floated out of nowhere, and in an instant, it solidified into ice-blue ice, directly freezing the person in front of him.
"What do you want to do?" Yun Xiao looked at him worriedly, and found that Xiao Qianye's face was also gloomy and terrifying, and a pair of gold and silver eyes were like a sharp knife.
"Even if you use the Ten Sword Sealing Technique, it can't slow down the progress of soul melting, I still have to find ......"
"Ah......hh Come, come on!"
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp exclamation came from outside, directly interrupting the conversation between the two.
Xiao Qianye snatched the door out, the voice came from the front, and several doctors ran up in a panic, I don't know what was wrong.
"Aunt Ying......" Yun Xiao quickly grabbed the female doctor just now, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"You ......" Aunt Ying gritted her teeth, glanced sideways at Xiao Qianye, countless complex colors flashed in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice, "Old Man Feng was killed, and he was in ...... Next to Feng Siniang's corpse, the palace master had just finished the autopsy, and the old man Feng said that he wanted to stay with his daughter for a while and left it alone, but the palace master went out with his front foot to write a report, and he heard the medicine boy screaming inside, and when he went back, the old man and the old man were gone, and ......"
She didn't dare to continue, with tears in her eyes, Yun Xiao anxiously asked, "And what?"
"And...... The old man is a corpse and a ...... head Someone took it away. ”
Xiao Qianye stood motionless in place, his expression was like an iceberg, he was not shocked, but the murderous aura that instantly ignited in his eyes made the ice and fire spell patterns on his eyelids resurface.
"Thousand Nights......" Yun Xiao stretched out her hand tremblingly, trying to pull him to say something, but her throat was sour again, and she couldn't say a word.
Xiao Qianye quietly stretched out her hand and brushed the scattered hair on her face behind her ears: "You go home first and wait for me, wait for me...... and when he has slaughtered those two men, he will return to thee. ”
He strode away with his sword, but his body was slowly shaking, and he felt a voice in his head sigh softly.
"You're back, too. He spoke to himself in a low voice, knowing that the other person in his body had returned from the Heavenly Realm, and the voice in his head only replied gently, "You and I already coexist, I can feel your emotions, but this matter seems to be different. ”
"It doesn't matter, they're all going to die anyway. ”
"Oh......" Emperor Zhong was a little surprised, he didn't expect Xiao Qianye, who had always been well versed in bureaucracy, to take the initiative to say such things.
"Did I surprise you?" sensing his doubts, the corners of Xiao Qianye's mouth hooked into a sharp smile, "This is what you want to see me." ”
Di Zhong didn't reply again, and he was full of emotion in his heart - this person, this descendant who had been separated by nine thousand years, finally unconsciously became what he used to be.
