Chapter 64: Yum
Bibo City is the capital of Bibo Country, and it is also the largest gathering place of the entire Xizhou Aquarium, although it is not as magnificent as the other three cities, but because of its unique geographical environment and the characteristics of the Aquarium, it has a unique position in the entire Xizhou Aquarium.
In the eyes of the demon clan of the Bibo Kingdom, the noble palace of the country is not ordinary for Jiao monsters, he has been adopted by the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon King since he was a child, and he has been in and out of this place for hundreds of years, almost as casual as his own home. In addition to winning the trust of the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon King, the Jiao Demon King is now the crown prince Baisheng, who is now supervising state affairs, and he also trusts him and is full of grace.
Just because he was originally the master of Prince Yum.
Passing through the portals, all the way to the back garden, when he walked near the foyer of the back garden, the leader of the guards, who had been with Prince Yum for a long time, flashed out from behind a clump of rockeries like a ghost, looked at the Jiao Demon King, and did not speak, and the Jiao Demon King immediately stopped consciously.
"What?"
After a long delay in the West Sea, on the way back, the Jiao Demon King had received information about all things in the country, whether it was the rise and fall of the Rakshasa Army, or the escape of the Princess of All Saints, the arrival of Qingmei, and even the recent pampering of those banshees by Prince Yum...... He knows that Shizhang's appearance here must have been due to some variables that have occurred recently, which is not big, but it has attracted his attention.
"Someone assassinated Miss Qingmei yesterday, someone rescued her, but it was unsuccessful, the assassin has been captured by nine fins and is being interrogated, but the person who saved Miss Qingmei has left, I don't know why, Miss Qingmei left suddenly today, or something related to it," Shizhang quickly told the details of what happened yesterday: "The two brothers of the rescuer were sent to the princess and have been imprisoned." β
"Assassinate Qingmei? This is strangeβcan you be sure that it is for the princess or Qingmei?"
Shizhang cracked the whole thing, and went through the clubhouse in detail, and then said:
"Listen to the nine fins, it seems that there is no result......
"What kind of interrogation will Nine Fin have? Since he can't do it, then move the person over, and you will personally interrogate the results with me?" The Jiao Demon King narrowed his eyes, thoughtfully, and pondered for a moment before he said, "Life and death matter, just find out what is behind it." β
"My lord, is this a little difficult?" Shizhang's eyelids flickered, and he said with a sad face: "The princess detains people in her own mansion, if she is not allowed, what can she do?"
The Jiao Demon King also had a headache when he heard this? The Ten Thousand Saints Princess was already very rude? In addition, because of the recent marriage to the Xihai, how could he dare to go to see it? But this is not difficult for the Jiao Demon King, he glared at him, and said directly: "This is your problem, I just need the result--remember? Within three days, the result of the investigation will be on me? Otherwise, I will not be reconciled with you!"
"Huh?"
Shizhang was dumbfounded......
"Is there anything else to do? If not, go and report to me!" Without waiting for Shizhang to come up with other ways to say this, the Jiao Demon King once again preemptively said: "The result of this trip to the West Sea, but what the king is waiting for?"
In such a situation, Shizhang dared to say more? He could only secretly admit that he was unlucky, and when he turned around, he had to find the nine fins to think of a way, and even if he couldn't bring people here, he had to cry and shout to help him, and to get out of the matter clearly--he walked a few steps towards the courtyard with a sad face, and suddenly remembered something, and turned back:
"By the way, there is one more thing, the righteous brothers of the two rescuers who were imprisoned by the princess in the other place, you see ......"
"What do you see? Don't you understand this, it's clear that the princess is the princess, what do you care, it's important to take care of your own business!"
How the Jiao Demon King decides, it is not ten zhang that can be about it, he naturally does not care, and soon accompanied Xiao to the courtyard, and said to Prince Yum who was reading a book in the courtyard: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Mr. Jiao has come back, and now he asks to see him." β
"Master is here, please please hurry!" Baisheng's face showed joy, and before Shizhang went out to summon, he had already shouted from afar: "Master will come in by himself!"
The Jiao Demon King straightened his robe and stepped in.
Because it is built underground, this so-called garden is just a large cave with some grass and trees, but I don't know where the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon King found so many night pearls from there, embellished on the top of the cave, so that the whole cave is always bathed in a faint halo, and the grass and trees can flourish, and among these plants and trees is a small pool, which flows along the crevices of the entire mountain to gather in the pool, and then slowly overflows, and flows down the dug ravine into the blue wave pool below.
There is a pavilion on the side of the pond, these Qiyi mountain stones are placed in the pavilion, and the side is decorated with coral shells, which is extremely gorgeous.
Prince Yum was sitting on the stone, and in the faint light, he read the sheepskin in his hand, on which there were some records of blades and instruments in the script of the human race, but they were only minor details, and there was no complete record of any craftsmanship.
It seems that this should be the intelligence that infiltrated the Zhou Dibang spy, and there is a large stack of parchment rolls on the stone next to it, which are scattered with this kind of thing.
"I've seen the prince...... "The Jiao Demon King was about to bend down to give a salute, but the prince of Yum had already thrown the sheepskin in his hand aside, grabbed the Jiao Demon King's hand, and said, "Master, don't be so polite! Didn't I already say it, Master is not an outsider, he came here, why do you pay attention to these false courtesies?"
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the number of etiquette cannot be spent, the reason why the human race is strong is precisely because they know etiquette and etiquette, we must not ignore it. But the Jiao Demon King still stubbornly finished the half salute, and then he got up and spoke with a straight face.
"I've said it all, Master, the Terran is strong because it seems that the art of war has nothing to do with the number of etiquette......" Prince Yum looked at the stubborn master in front of him, and it was not easy to confront him face to face, so he could only say like this, seeing that the Jiao Demon King raised his eyebrows, he wanted to argue with him again, and immediately waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, this matter is not to be argued with you, Master, or according to the method we discussed last time - you and I don't count this matter, it still depends on the meaning of my father." β
The Jiao Demon King nodded, he didn't want to quarrel with the prince again at this time.
Prince Yum invited the Jiao Demon King to sit down, and then instructed the guards to bring water to drink with the Jiao Demon King, and after everything was over, he spoke: "Master, how is it, how much hope is there?"
Naturally, what he asked was not about the marriage of the two families, about the marriage of the third prince of the West Sea and the princess of all saints, it had already been negotiated, and the Jiao Demon King also sent a fast horse back to deliver a letter, he already knew that what he wanted to ask was what could not be written on bamboo slips and sheepskins, nor could he let the messenger know - about letting the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas rejoin the Xizhou Demon Clan and fight against the human race together.
The Jiao Demon King shook his head solemnly, and said: "This matter has not yet come to a conclusion, the Dragon King of the West Sea has been saying that the human race has the support of the gods and goddesses behind it, and now the three realms of the heavens, except for the five saints, all the most powerful are in the immortals, our demon clan is not ranked at all, if there is no bargaining chip that is really worth making them tempted, the Four Sea Clans will definitely not be sent to death." β
"You mean, we need to find someone who can deal with those three?" Prince Yum thought for a while, and frowned speculatively: "But now that we are recognized as the strongest in the Demon Clan, they are all in the Four Kingdoms of the Demon Clan, so there are others?"
"Then you can only find ancient magic weapons and spiritual objects, such as the four swords of the immortals in the past, the six soul flags, the mixed yuan golden bucket and the like," the Jiao Demon King sighed and said, "But these things, except for those that were taken away by the immortals, were taken away by the five saints, how can we find them?"
"Then we can't help but look for it, while strengthening ourselves, while looking for the various magic weapons you said, and at the same time looking for the whereabouts of those people," Prince Yum said in a low voice: "For example, Ancestor, if we can find the place where Ancestor was imprisoned and rescue him from the predicament, don't say that the Four Seas Dragon Clan, that is, the demons of all worlds will come to listen to the order, why can't our demon clan prosper?"
"There is no news," the Jiao Demon King shook his head: "Don't talk about the ancestor, even if the demon king who is imprisoned in the eyes of the Beihai Sea has no way to find it, how can he find anything else? β
"I can't find it, what can I do?" Prince Yum sighed leisurely: "If the Four Seas Dragon Clan has to see such an ancestor or magic weapon to join, wouldn't our marriage this time be in vain?" Master, I know that I am soft-spoken, and the lords of the country will not listen to what I say, but since this is the case, then we can also tell you the truth, and the matter of the little sister's marriage will be stopped!"
"That's so, but you don't know the temper of the kings, I'm afraid that they have other ideas," the Jiao Demon King said with a solemn face: "Do you remember when the Tu Shan clan was so high, and the Great Jinpeng King calculated that Qingmei responded to the Heavenly Dao variables, didn't he send it the same?"
Baisheng paused slightly, raised his head, and looked into the eyes of the Jiao Demon King: "According to Master, doesn't the little sister have no choice?"
Speaking of this, the Jiao Demon King suddenly smiled.
"Speaking of this, it's a little funny - Your Highness, although the Dragon King of the West Sea is unwilling to join us, they don't dare to marry the princess now, saying that they want to wait for a result in this matter, in my opinion, the Dragon King of the West Sea is afraid that he is worried about the destruction of the demon clan, and his marriage with us will be implicated, so the marriage can only be delayed, although it is agreed, but he does not dare to do it immediately!"
"Really?" Prince Yum suddenly had a hint of joy on his face, and said with a wry smile: "This is good news. β
The Jiao Demon King said abruptly: "Since this is the case, there is no need to worry about this matter, on the contrary, the king and I have other things, I'm afraid there is some trouble." β
"What's the matter?"
"Does the prince know that Qingmei was assassinated the day before yesterday?"
Prince Yum sighed, and continued: "I already know about this matter, although I haven't hurt Miss Qingmei, but I can't spare it lightly - I'm going to escort people to Tushan and hand them over to Chitong to deal with, what do you think?"
"Does the prince really think that their target is Qingmei?" the Jiao Demon King shook his head, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he said: "But according to my meaning, this may not be, maybe it is for the princess!"
"Why is it a little sister? I remember what they told me about it, and the person I saw was fighting with Qingmei. β
"But before, who saw it?" the Jiao Demon King shook his head slowly, and said: "If the guess is right, I think this should be someone who is preventing us from winning over the Four Seas Dragon Clan and attempting to assassinate the princess, so I turned into Qingmei." β
Prince Yum's face became solemn, and he immediately said, "Investigate! We must find out the truth and see who it is!"
"That's what I mean, but now that people are locked up in the princess's mansion, if you want to interfere in the interrogation, I'm afraid you'll have to annoy His Royal Highness the Prince......" The Jiao Demon King smiled faintly.
