Chapter Twenty-Five: Training the Shadow Guard

Purple Shadow stood in front of the window, dressed in a white robe, with a rich makeup that had been carefully arranged on her face. Although many people have talked about his habit, and some people even abuse him in private, he feels that some emotions need to be hidden, some attitudes need to be pretended, and he is not good at it, so he can only rely on fat powder decoration.

Suddenly remembered that last night, when he saw the deep love between his brother and sister-in-law, he remembered his once fiery heart.

It just so happened that Huo Wu pushed the door in, gently hugged his waist from behind, put his face against his back, and whispered: "Childe ......" seems to have a trace of emotion in his heart.

He looked at the hands that clung to his chest, as if they could be broken by a blow. It's just that when he touched Huo Wu's cold hands, the whole person seemed to be stimulated and instantly sobered up. He turned to look at Fire Dance's fascination and pushed her away. She had followed her for so long that she seemed to be able to read his heart, and then imitated it to please him.

It's just that the more he learns, the more he resists. For him, the matter of affection is rather lacking than excessive. What's more, there will never be a reciprocal relationship, just like many years ago, the woman he was passionate about in love with the twilight turned out to be a heartless and loveless ghost, which feels ridiculous when you think about it.

"Childe, everything is ready, ready to board the ship!" Interrupted by thoughts, Zhixue, who was standing at the door of the room, looked at Ziying with a cold expression.

He heard the sound of Weaving Snow and turned his head to look at her. The morning sun shone on her, shining brightly. It's just that the expression on his face looks like he is angry, who are you angry about? Why are you angry?

"Got it, get on board immediately. "Seeing that the Peach Blossom River is rising, the itinerary is urgent.

Purple Shadow took his three first-class shadow guards, more than ten second- and third-class shadow guards and slaves, and set off in full gear. Although there are not many people, they are all shrewd and capable. There are also some low-level shadow guards who are arranged to deal with the orders of the young emperor to hunt down and kill people from other worlds, although the bounty is very high, but he has no interest.

Zhixue actually doesn't like to ride boats, she hates the feeling of fluttering.

As soon as the boat started, she was summoned by Weaving Rain to a large cabin.

There were dozens of people standing inside, each dressed in dark clothes and armed with weapons. Here, Zhixue also met another person from the three personal first-class shadow guards, Weaving Wind.

Weaver Wind is an unsmiling man, and his baby face is completely out of step with his indifferent temperament.

There is also a female Shu'er, I heard that she is also preparing to be promoted to the reserve staff of the personal shadow guard, she has a long scar on her face, the scar is in the corner of the eye, she just painted the scar into a flower, and she can't see it at all. Zhiyu said that she was a very strong woman, and she was good at camouflage all kinds of masks, which added a lot of shortcuts to complete the task.

Zhixue just took Zhiyun's place, and her skills were still shallow, and it was difficult to convince the public in private. It's just that Gongzi has already spoken, and even Shu'er doesn't dare to say more, and the other film guards who are not nominated are not good at saying anything.

"The mission of this trip must be completed. "Purple Shadow arranged for Fire Dance to send a secret letter to everyone, and the tasks of the shadow guards were sealed in the secret letter, and each shadow guard's tasks were not allowed to inform each other, and the degree of secrecy was very strict.

"Her name is Zhixue, and she will be slapped by me on the top of the boat tonight, and if she doesn't die, she will be promoted to a first-class shadow guard, and if she dies, she will be thrown into the Peach Blossom River to feed the fish. Ziying glanced at Zhixue lightly, and the corners of her mouth raised a hint of mockery, and walked into the cabin.

All the shadow guards looked at Zhixue, and when they saw her walking with a voice, they couldn't even hide their own breath in their gestures. With such shallow skills, he must not have been able to stand that palm, so they dispersed, leaving only the three major shadow guards and Shu'er.

"Shu'er, aren't you staring at the fairy in the clouds? Zhiyu asked.

Shu'er looked at Zhixue left and right, "This trip to the Dragon Stream is very important to the son, and we will definitely swear to protect the son." It's just ......" Shu'er laughed skillfully, looking at Zhixue with a look of disdain in her eyes.

"It's a pity for this snow-weaving girl to have a flowery and moon-like face, the duty of this shadow guard is very dangerous, if you die carelessly, I can peel off your face in case of emergency. She doesn't have a good impression of Zhixue, originally Zhiyun died, and she was the number one candidate for promotion to the three major shadow guards, but a Zhixue appeared inexplicably, and she was a little more annoyed in her heart.

Weaving Wind scolded, "What are you scaring her for, since it is Gongzi's arrangement, there must be a reason for him." ”

Zhi Yu smiled and said to Zhi Xue, "Don't mind, they are used to joking like this!"

Zhixue smiled and shook her head. "Please take care of it in the future. ”

The night came unexpectedly.

What Zhi Xue didn't expect was that so many people would come to watch her being beaten! The pavilion on the top of the boat was full of people standing in a circle, and even more exaggerated, there were even several people hanging on the eaves of the pavilion.

Zhixue walked into the pavilion step by step, and Ziying leaned on the bamboo couch and squinted at her. Fire Dance sat beside him, with a smile in her eyes, as if she had never seen her have had any other expression than to laugh since the day she met her.

"Childe!" Zhixue knelt down on one knee, completely looking like her subordinates had come to receive death, and she had been waiting for this palm for almost three months.

Purple Shadow stood up and paced back and forth in front of Zhixue, "Are you ready?"

Zhixue stood up, tied up her horse, and her eyes were firm, "Ready!"

The purple shadow was not ambiguous, and walked to Zhixue, he used forty percent of his internal force to condense this power in the palm of his right hand, and after a while, the palm glowed red, as if there was a foreign object about to break out. Flip your right hand three times and place it on top of your left hand, pulling out a red light from the palm of your left hand.

The red light was dazzling, everyone was shocked when they saw this, and even Zhiyu panicked, does Childe really want Zhixue's life?

Zhiyu couldn't help but take a step forward, but was pulled by Zhifeng. Weaver shook his head at him, motioning for him not to be impulsive.

Zhixue also felt a little uneasy, as she clearly felt a wave of hot air coming from the palm of the purple shadow's hand. That power gives people a sense of urgency of panic. As if awakened, the warm current in Zhixue's chest flowed freely in her body, and when her whole body was hot like a fire, the warm current finally stopped at the dantian.

Zhixue's forehead was covered with sweat, and she watched Ziying's face blurred by the waves of anger, only to feel that he was getting closer and closer to her. Will you die?

In the blink of an eye, Ziying waved his palms and slapped his right hand at Zhi Xue's chest, followed by another palm with his left hand, Zhi Xue let out a muffled snort, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Purple Shadow retracted her breath, looked at the woman who fell at her feet, and motioned for Zhiyu to come over and check. Only then did Zhi Yu hurriedly rush to Zhi Xue and touch his wrist, "Childe, she's still alive! she's still alive!" The joy on her face made Ziying feel a little inexplicably wonderful.

"Take it with you!" said Purple Shadow, "survive, she will be one of the Three Shadow Guards." All the shadow guards around who were watching the excitement claimed yes, and disappeared one after another in the blink of an eye. They were completely convinced in their hearts, after all, none of them could catch the two palms of the son at the same time, and this woman must have some ability.

Ziying watched as Zhiyu took away the unconscious Zhixue, and the look on her face was unpredictable. Huo Wu looked at the look on Purple Shadow's face, wanting to know his thoughts, but found that she couldn't understand it, which surprised her.

"What is Childe thinking?" asked Huo Wu softly.

"Haven't you always been able to see through my mind?" Purple Image strode away as if she was running away from something.

Huo Wu looked at the back of the purple shadow and whispered softly, "But I really didn't see through your mind just now!"

.

Oriyuki slowly opened her eyes, and it was already the night after the second day.

The light rain outside the window had stopped, but the wind was still blowing, and the sails could be clearly heard. There was a candle burning in the room, and the doors and windows were closed, and you could feel the warmth of the candle flame.

She looked at the weaving rain who was accompanying her, and her heart warmed.

"You're awake!" Zhiyu was overjoyed, he slowly helped Zhixue up, folded the quilt and placed it at the head of the bed, so that Zhixue would be much more comfortable to lean on. He slowly handed a bowl of brown potion on the wooden table to Zhixue. "Come, drink the medicine. ”

Zhixue smelled the medicine and felt a little uncomfortable, and wanted to vomit but couldn't vomit anything. "Is there any water?"

"You have been fasting for a few days, your qi and blood are very weak, this is the tonic decoction boiled by the house doctor, drink it quickly!" Zhiyu comforted. "Drink some clear porridge after drinking, don't hurt your stomach. ”

Zhixue couldn't refuse, so she had to hold her breath and drink it in one gulp, and Zhiyu immediately handed over a tangerine.

Looking at the expectation on Zhiyu's face, Zhixue peeled off the tangerine and ate a petal. Zhiyu put her words in her heart, this tangerine is sweet and sour, she likes it very much.

"I didn't expect me to survive!" Oriyuki smiled wryly. "I thought I was going to die. When Purple Shadow and her palms met, she seemed to feel Purple Shadow's killing intent.

Zhiyu's answer was a little vague, "It's just your fate!"

In fact, the speculation in Zhiyu's heart is not unreasonable, since Zhixue and Gongzi spent the night together in the pavilion on the top of the boat, whether it is martial arts, internal strength or comprehension of martial arts, it has skyrocketed in an instant. He always thought that Zhixue was a martial arts genius in his own right, and he didn't understand until Zhixue took the two palms of Gongzi but didn't die.

When he checked the pulse of Zhixue, he found that there was a strong internal strength in her body. At that time, the prince gave his palms to each other, and scattered the internal strength, and the internal force that traveled all over the body continued to strengthen the various joint acupoints of Zhixue.

It's just that Zhiyu doesn't understand that if Zhixue is given such an internal force, Childe's internal strength must be damaged. Why did Childe do this?

Zhi Yu looked at Zhi Xue's pure and beautiful face, and his heart was slightly touched. Childe probably wouldn't...

"I don't know how many pounds and taels I have!" Zhi Xue also had a hint of luck in her heart. "But thank you so much, Weaving Rain!" No matter what kind of situation she is in, the warmth that Weaving Rain gives her is really touching.
