Chapter 5: Leaving (5)
Ah Xiao suddenly remembered something, and just forgot to explain it to the water demon, she got up and got out of bed and walked to the table, poured a cup of tea and put it away, and then gently raised her hand to brush it over the teacup, and the evil qi in her palm gradually entered the cup and mixed with the tea.
The tea suddenly came alive and flew out of the cup, turning into a crested ibis bird in the air, the body was dignified and elegant, although it was changed by the tea, but the wings were still divided into feather levels, which was very amazing.
Ah Xiao said: "Do you know where the werewolf is today?"
The crested ibis bird lowered its neck and replied respectfully: "Tell my mother-in-law, that person has been brought into the palace." ”
"...... the palace" Ah Xiao frowned slightly, and the doubts on her face flashed.
That's right, the Chongguo royal family has always had a deep relationship with the Purple Star Sect, she sighed lightly, now that person has been taken to the palace, it seems that it is a little difficult to avenge the little wolf with his own hands.
After a long time, Ah Xiao spoke again: "Send a message to your fellow people in the palace, and ask them to kill that werewolf in the same way as Xiaoshui." ”
"Yes...... Whoa!" the crested ibis bird said respectfully, flashing its wings and flying quickly towards the window, but the window was closed, and it directly 'snapped' into the window, and its body scattered into water and fell to the ground.
The splash of water flew on Ah Xiao's face, she raised her hand to wipe it, and quietly watched the tea fly up from the ground and turn into the shape of a crested ibis bird again, it flapped its wings, and shyly lowered its head to peek at A Xiao, looking very cute.
Ah Xiao waved her hand to open the window, and the crested ibis bird hung its neck to express its gratitude, then turned around and flew out of the window, gradually disappearing in the night sky.
The disciples of the three major immortal cultivators were busy day and night for the investigation of the case, and Emperor Chongguo held a banquet in the palace to reward him. When night fell, the light and melodious sound of the piano came from the Lingyu Palace, adding a bit of joy to the dead and empty night sky.
The person on the golden unicorn throne looks handsome, the corners of his mouth are shallow and raised, mature and steady without losing affinity, he brushes his sleeves with one hand and holds wine with the other, and his eyes keep rolling on the bodies of everyone in the audience.
"Why don't you see Senior Brother?" Mu Yangsheng looked back and forth a few times, but he didn't see the person he was looking for, so he asked.
A purple-clothed disciple stood up, respectfully bowed to him, and said, "There is something strange in the bamboo forest outside the city, and Senior Brother went to check it, but he has not returned yet." ”
Mu Yangsheng nodded slightly and beckoned him to sit down.
He turned his head to look at the guard entourage sitting beside him: "Feiyang, Qingmingjun doesn't like to make noise to attend banquets in the future, you go and ask him what he needs, and order someone to send it to him." ”
Feiyang stood up and nodded respectfully: "Yes." With that, he walked swiftly out of the side door and left the palace.
It is well known that Qingming Jun does not like to be lively, and because of this, Mu Yangsheng arranged for him to live in the most quiet and elegant pear pavilion in the palace.
Surrounded by greenery, there is a crystal clear jade lake under the attic, the fish in the lake are frolicking and playing, the surrounding is full of colorful flowers, and a winding wooden bridge leads from the cobblestone path in the woods to the stone table under the attic.
On the terrace of the attic, the man in purple stood upright, looking up at the round of whiteness hanging in the night, and his shallow eyes were full of melancholy.
Suddenly, Yebai heard a faint sound from the teacup on the table behind him, his eyebrows tightened, and he turned around and drew his sword and pointed at the translucent person behind him.
Before turning around, Yebai had also imagined the appearance of the monster behind him, but he didn't expect that a simple pot of tea could also be transformed into a human shape.
For thousands of years, there had never been a mention of this kind of monster in a book, and despite the doubts in his heart, Yebai still looked serious, staring at the water demon.
The water demon stood quietly, looked at the teacup on the side, and then looked at the purple-clothed man who drew his sword against him, as if he was a little confused.
It is not afraid of the spirit sword in the hands of Qingming Jun, after all, the sword weapon can't hurt it, but it moves too much, I wanted to sneak out to see, the wolf demon is in this room, but I didn't expect it to be discovered, and it was a little embarrassing.
Yebai frowned, and was about to continue the attack on the water demon, but before he could gather strength, the water demon in front of him turned into a stream of water and drilled into the teacup, he looked at this scene incredibly, and did not slow down for a long time.
"Qingmingjun!"
Feiyang's voice came from under the terrace, and Yebai recovered from his surprise, turned around and walked two steps to the edge of the terrace, and lowered his eyes to look down.
When Fei Yang saw him, his eyes lit up instantly, and he put his hands to his mouth and shouted: "The emperor asked me to ask you, but if there is anything needed, I will order someone to prepare!"
He didn't mean to be noisy, the main thing was that Qingming Jun confessed when he entered the Pear Pavilion and didn't let anyone enter the house to disturb him, so he could only shout downstairs.
Yebai shook his head slightly, and was just about to speak, when he saw the purple-clothed disciple running from the other end of the wooden bridge, his face was in a hurry, as if he was in a hurry.
The purple-clothed disciple walked up to Fei Yang's side, didn't have time to greet him, and looked up at Ye Bai in the attic: "Qingmingjun, the werewolf captured by Jiuxuanzong today died suddenly. ”
Fei Yang was equally surprised as Ye Bai.
"How could someone die suddenly?" Fei Yang asked suspiciously.
The palace was heavily guarded, and there were dozens of disciples of the Three Sects guarding that werewolf, how could it be that he died suddenly as he said?
Ye Bai jumped down the stairs lightly, his feet landed steadily, and the purple-clothed disciple hurriedly ran over: "Qingmingjun." ”
"Tell me more about what's going on. Yebai looked at him, his eyes were calm like water, without a trace of waves.
He had already guessed that this would be the case, the wolf clan and humans have always been independent of each other, and today they dared to possess a human body so boldly, there must be someone behind him to help him, otherwise, how could a wolf who had already died still have such a complete soul.
The purple-clothed disciple said: "Just now, I went with the disciples of the Nine Xuanzong to deliver food to the werewolf, but as soon as I entered the house, the water in the teapot actually came to life, and flew to the werewolf's face and instantly drowned him. ”
Yebai frowned suddenly, it was the water monster again!
This is what Fei Yang has naturally heard, but the water demon is so bold that he actually came to the palace to do a prank, thinking like this, suddenly his face changed, should the water demon also be unfavorable to the emperor!
Before Feiyang could say goodbye, he turned around and ran away.
Suddenly, there was a sound of water flowing behind him, Ye Bai suddenly turned around, and a stream of water flew out of the house, it was the water demon just now!
Yebai drew his sword and attacked it, but the sword passed directly through the body of the water demon, and then flew back, Yebai reached out and took the spirit sword that flew back, and the sword chased after the water demon.
Ah Xiao sat at the table, reached out and picked up the lotus cake on the table to eat, sweet and glutinous, soft, melted in the mouth, this Panxiao Continent has changed a lot in the past four years, but only this Ceyang's lotus cake tastes the same as before.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew open the closed wooden window, and the familiar fragrance of orchids came with the wind, and as soon as Ah Xiao let go of his hand, the lotus cake that he had bitten into fell on the table. She got up and stepped away from the window, and a purple shadow jumped in from the outside.
The wind stopped, and Yebai vigorously waved his sleeves to close the window, his eyes fixed on the woman in black across the round table.
Seeing Yebai, A Xiao's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, she clapped her hands and wiped the residue of the lotus cake on her fingertips, and looked at him expressionlessly: "Qingmingjun is coming, and he is disappointed." Her tone was flat, cold as ice, with a hint of sarcasm.
Yebai frowned slightly, and held back a sentence for a long time: "You're back." ”
Ah Xiao raised the corners of her mouth and smiled at him, looking amiable and indifferent, but Yebai could see that her smile was full of scorn.
Ah Xiao nodded, walked slowly to the table, picked up the fallen lotus cake lightly, and said while wiping off the dust on it, "Yes, I'm back." She ate it without disgust: "I'm not dead, you are very disappointed." ”
Ye Bai's eyebrows furrowed tighter, looking at her with disappointment in his eyes, now, he couldn't feel a trace of aura in her, he concentrated his eyes, and he could clearly see that Ah Xiao's body was full of black aura.
Seeing him standing still, Ah Xiao picked up a piece of lotus cake with her other hand and handed it to him: "Do you want to eat it?"
For a long time, Yebai asked in a deep voice: "Why do you want to kill?"
Ah Xiao calmly put the lotus cake in her hand on the table, and sneered: "Qingmingjun, don't you feel awkward to ask this? I'm a demon, demons don't kill people, are you waiting for others to kill yourself?"
Yebai's breathing became more and more rapid, he was angry, Axiao still looked at him with a peaceful smile, Yebai frowned and shook his head: "He hasn't done anything to you." ”
