Volume 2 Mirror Flower Water Moon Chapter 23 Under the Hanging Moon Lake (Two Me?)
Dongfang Xue couldn't sleep all night, and the next morning he got up early, walked to the pavilion in the courtyard and began to meditate. Why were the Ten Fang Valley and Qingluan Palace so humble and polite to the monarch of a small dynasty? If Emperor Huangfu was really not simple, then why did he destroy a small family, the Dongfang Family? Originally, Dongfang Xue also thought that it was because of the persecution of the Black Evil Sect, but when she looked back, if the Black Evil Sect was not afraid of the Huangfu Dynasty, why did she send the five elders of the Black Evil Sect to the Imperial Capital of Huangfu for the sake of a small Dongfang family? According to the style of the Black Evil Sect, if the Dongfang Family was directly wiped out, why should he coerce the Emperor Huangfu? There is only one possibility, the Black Evil Sect came to the imperial capital that day not to coerce Emperor Huangfu, but to conspire with Emperor Huangfu, or to negotiate the price......
Dongfang Xue thought about it and thought of the scene of Huang Fusheng she saw yesterday, thinking of Huang Fusheng's face, Dongfang Xue couldn't believe that it was Huang Fusheng and the Black Demon Sect who conspired to kill the Dongfang family, but a small Dongfang family, why was it worth them so much trouble......
Oh!
Suddenly, a voice came out, Dongfang Xue immediately woke up, and when she heard Bai Yan's voice, Dongfang Xue just appeared in Bai Yan's room with a ghost in an instant.
Dongfang Xue didn't notice that there was anyone else in the house, and when she turned her head to look at Bai Yan, she saw that Bai Yan was still on the bed, and she was already curled up under the quilt at the moment, shivering, and she could faintly hear Bai Yan's sobbing.
At this time, there was the hurried footsteps of Dugu Zhao and the ghost outside the door, Dongfang Xue coughed lightly and said to the door: "It's okay, you can go back!"
The footsteps outside the door stopped, and then Jiang Kun whispered a few words to Dugu Zhao, and after the ghosts glared at each other, they obediently walked away, and the rest of them followed behind the three of them, and the three steps with big eyes and resentment turned around. You don't have to think about it, Dongfang Xue knows that a few people are thinking too much......
Dongfang Xue walked to Bai Yan's bed, Bai Yan's shoulders were still exposed, and sweat beads were dripping on her fragrant shoulders, saying that her skin was as white as jade. Dongfang Xue found a corner on the bed and sat down slowly, then covered her with Bai Wei's quilt, smelling the faint fragrance in the room, Dongfang Xue gently picked up a strand of Bai Yan's hair, gently stroked it in her hand and asked, "Have you had a nightmare?"
Since Bai Yu heard Dongfang Xue's voice, she gradually eased up, but at this time, she didn't show her face, and replied to Dongfang Xue in a slightly hoarse voice: "Well, I was scared unconsciously......" After speaking, Bai Yan poked her head out of the bed, only to see that Bai Yan's face was already full of tears.
"What kind of nightmare are you doing?" Dongfang Xue looked at the frightened Bai Yu and asked lightly.
Hearing Dongfang Xue's words, Bai Wei raised her head and looked at Dongfang Xue with beautiful eyes, then squeezed out a smile, and then shook her head, feeling Dongfang Xue caressing her long hair, and thinking that she was not wearing clothes at the moment, Bai Yan's face couldn't help but climb into a blush.
Seeing that Bai Wei shook her head and didn't tell her dream to herself, Dongfang Xue was puzzled, but when she saw Bai Yan's little daughter's posture, Dongfang Xue couldn't help but think of the scene when she first met Bai Yan eight years ago, and she was a little stunned for a while.
Feeling that the palm that was kneading her hair stopped in place, Bai Yu looked at Dongfang Xue, only to see Dongfang Xue looking at herself blankly, thinking about what to think, Bai Yu secretly scolded Dongfang Xue in her heart for being a fool, and the cherry took a small bite and laughed like an epiphany.
Dongfang Xue was awakened by Bai Yan's actions, and then laughed, and after laughing, she held Bai Yan's hand and said, "I wronged you......"
Bai Yu shook her head, and then said, "I just dreamed of you......"
Only then did Dongfang Xue know why Bai Yan shook her head just now and didn't tell herself, it turned out to be the thoughts of her youngest daughter's family, but Dongfang Xue asked Bai Yan: "Why are you still scared and crying when you dream of me?"
What Dongfang Xue didn't expect was that after Bai Wei shook her head again, there were tears rolling in her eyes, Dongfang Xue quickly touched Bai Yan's head and comforted: "Silly girl! Dreams are all fake......
Bai Yan's eyes looked at the window, and she saw that the sunlight had already crept into the house through the window at this moment, and she didn't know what she was thinking......
"I dreamed of two of you......" After a while, Bai Yu said to Dongfang Xue.
"Two mes?" Dongfang Xue smiled and asked rhetorically.
Bai Yu nodded, and then continued with palpitations: "I dreamed that you were fighting the Fa ......"
"Hahaha......" Dongfang Xue was made to smile bitterly by Bai Yan's appearance, and then interrupted Bai Yu and said slightly angrily: "Don't think about it, it's enough for you to have one Dongfang Xue in the whole world, why do you want two......"
Bai Yu didn't speak when she saw Dongfang Xue's appearance, she just nodded obediently, Dongfang Xue looked at Bai Xue's appearance and slowly leaned down, Bai Yu wanted to raise her hand to resist, but her two snow-white arms were grabbed by Dongfang Xue in her hands, and she couldn't do anything. Seeing Dongfang Xue's face gradually approaching her, Bai Yufang's heart was in turmoil, and she quickly turned her head and closed her eyes.
Gently, Dongfang Xue kissed Bai Yan's forehead, then let go of Bai Yan's hands and stood up.
When Bai Yu saw that she was free, she immediately shrank back into the quilt and wrapped the quilt tightly. Dongfang Xue couldn't help laughing happily when she saw Bai Yan's appearance, and then said: "I think back then, when you saved me, I couldn't beat you, but now, as everyone knows, you have become the meat in my mouth...... "After speaking, Dongfang Xue walked out of Bai Yan's room under Bai Yan's embarrassed and angry face.
When it was time for breakfast, the family sat together, and after the people brought the dishes one by one, Dongfang Xue raised his head and saw that everyone was silent, and Luoluo bit the bones in his mouth viciously as if he was angry, Bai Yu ate the rice angrily, and even Jiang Kun, the little fat man who talked the most on weekdays, quieted down. Dongfang Xue shook her head and didn't want to explain, but when Dongfang Xue just picked up the chopsticks to eat, she saw that some of the food in front of her was something she had never seen before.
"This is ......" Dongfang Xue looked at Jiang Kun puzzled.
Jiang Kun heard Dongfang Xue's question, hurriedly swallowed the rice in his mouth, and proudly explained to Dongfang Xue: "Brother-in-law! This is tiger whip soup! Next to it is fried kidney flowers, and the plate in front of you is the beef loin that I and Brother Dugu Zhao just bought after five or six miles of travel!
After listening to Jiang Kun's explanation, Dongfang Xue looked at Jiang Kun's appearance, only to see Jiang Kun looking at herself with blank eyes, looking at that look as if he was saying to Dongfang Xue: "Praise me! Praise me......
After Dongfang Xue shook her head, she turned her head to the side and ignored the little fat man Jiang Kun, who felt inexplicably wronged in his heart. Dongfang Xue turned her head to look at Dugu Zhao, and then asked, "Do you know the Huangfu Emperor's family?"
Dugu Zhao put down the dishes and chopsticks, and then after thinking about it, he explained to Dongfang Xue: "The Huangfu Huang clan seems to be a branch of a big family in Zhongzhou, this time I came, and the third uncle also told me not to provoke them if I have nothing to do! Brother Dugu asked me what I was doing here?"
"Zhongzhou?" Dongfang Xue was puzzled, then turned her head to look at the little fat man Jiang Kun, only to see Jiang Kun explain with a greasy mouth: "The Huangfu family is also a medium force in Shangzhongzhou, Huangfu Sheng is a branch of the Huangfu family!"
Dongfang Xue nodded after listening to the little fat man's words called Jiang Kun, thinking in her heart, even if it is the power of Zhongzhou, how can it be entangled with the Dongfang family in this far place, Dongfang Xue is becoming more and more confused.
"Then do you know about the Hanging Moon Lake?" Dongfang Xue then asked the two.
"Isn't Hanging Moon Lake the most beautiful scenery in the imperial capital?" the little fat man Jiang Kun asked Dongfang Xue suspiciously, and Dugu Zhao also looked confused.
It seems that the two of them don't know, even Tianyimen, one of the five major forces, doesn't know the situation of Hanging Moon Lake, it seems that there is really something strange under Hanging Moon Lake, Dongfang Xue secretly wondered in his heart.
After waiting for late at night, Dongfang Xue summoned Ghost One, and the two did not alarm the other people in Dugu Mansion, so they changed into night clothes and left Dugu Mansion, and went in the direction of Hanging Moon Lake by the bright moonlight......
Coming to the Hanging Moon Lake, Dongfang Snow Ghost and two people floated on the surface of the Hanging Moon Lake with their spiritual power, Dongfang Xue looked at the calm and bottomless water under his feet, and a divine sense probed into the ghost ring and asked the book soul: "Does the old scholar have any clues about this Hanging Moon Lake now?"
After a while, the voice of the book soul came and said to Dongfang Xue: "Young master, I haven't found any records about this Hanging Moon Lake in the books in the ghost abyss, and my subordinates boldly guess that this Hanging Moon Lake should have changed like this in the past thousand years, or it was concealed before this, or it is impossible to find a trace of records in this ancient book." ”
Dongfang Xue nodded, then withdrew his divine sense, and the ghost turned to Dongfang Xue and asked, "Why did the young master bring his subordinates here?"
Dongfang Xue pointed to the ghost under the water, and then said to the ghost: "There is something strange under the water, I want to go down to find out, you wait for me here, if anything happens, you will go back to the house and tell Dugu Zhao ......"
Ghost Yi looked at the Hanging Moon Lake, then looked at the bottomless lake, and said worriedly to Dongfang Xue: "It's better to go down! If there is a change, the young master will save me, if something happens to the young master...... Ghost Yi just wanted to continue, how should he explain to Bai Yuluoluo, but was interrupted by Dongfang Xue.
"Don't say more, wait for me here!" Dongfang Xue interrupted Ghost Yi's words, and then jumped off the Hanging Moon Lake, plopped, the lake water was cold, Dongfang Xue used his spiritual power to protect his body, and then swam hard to swim down. As soon as the ghost saw Dongfang Xue jumping down, he didn't give himself a chance to stop it, so he waited anxiously on the surface of the water worriedly.
Dongfang Xue swam downward in the water, and with the help of the night pearl brought out in the ghost abyss, Dongfang Xue could see things within ten zhang of the surrounding area in the clear water. Dongfang Xue doesn't know how long she has been swimming, what makes Dongfang Xue weird is that the lower the underwater is, the colder it gets, and even though Dongfang Xue has spiritual protection, she can still feel the slightest coolness, and the temperature of the usual water will be higher than that on the water surface, just like a lake in winter, after the lake freezes, there are still fish under the water that can move freely.
Dongfang Xue continued to swim downward, although by the brightness of the night pearl can see the surrounding ten zhang, but ten zhang away is still dark, at this time there is light and no light to appear almost the same, only occasionally there will be one or two big fish swimming in front of Dongfang Xue, and immediately escaped after being disturbed by Dongfang Xue.
Waiting for half an hour later, Dongfang Xue finally saw something under the light of the night pearl, and finally swam to the bottom of the water, Dongfang Xue sighed in her heart, if she didn't find Dongfang Xue again, she planned to give up, because the cold here had already exceeded Dongfang Xue's estimate, and through the spiritual power of the surrounding body, Dongfang Xue felt cold and piercing.
Dongfang Xue took the night pearl and swam to the thing she saw, and found that it was a spherical object, the diameter of the object was about ten zhang and not very large, and there were eighteen iron chains around this sphere to lock, Dongfang Xue looked in the direction of the chain, only to see that one by one the iron chains disappeared in the endless darkness in front of her, Dongfang Xue lowered her head again and looked down, only to see that there was still a black hole below, as if there was no end in sight.
Dongfang Xue tried to use her divine sense to explore the surroundings again, but found that her divine sense could not be pulled out of the body at all, and after shaking her head, Dongfang Xue began to look at a huge sphere locked by iron chains.
The sphere was surrounded by sludge, and the sphere had been underwater for countless years. Dongfang Xue wandered around the sphere for a long time with the Night Pearl, but did not find any clues. Dongfang Xue stretched out her hand to touch the sphere, and when Dongfang Xue's hand slowly approached the sphere, before she could touch the sphere, suddenly a voice sounded from Dongfang Xue's ears.
"Woo... Woohoo......"
Bursts of cries poured towards him from all directions from Dongfang Xue as the center, Dongfang Xue was shocked, immediately turned his head, and looked around vigilantly, but the light of the night pearl was limited, and Dongfang Xue looked at it, and the surroundings were still dark and hazy.
Hearing that cry reminded Dongfang Xue of Ning Tiancheng on the medicine mountain at the beginning, and that kind of voice that was neither male nor female sounded in this endless darkness, which couldn't help but make Dongfang Xue's heart furious.
Seeing that the sound disappeared, Dongfang Xue turned her head to look at the mysterious sphere behind her, and after finding that nothing unusual had happened, Dongfang Xue didn't dare to linger any longer, and immediately swam towards the top of the lake with her spiritual power.
As soon as the ghost saw Dongfang Xue go down, it had already been an hour, and he was hesitating whether to go back to the house now to tell Dugu Zhao who came to the rescue, when suddenly there were ripples on the water, and the water splashed in all directions, and after everything subsided, Dongfang Xue's figure had already jumped out of the water, and he saw Dongfang Xue running his spiritual power, and the water traces on his clothes evaporated in an instant.
Ghost Yi came to Dongfang Xue and asked, "Young Master!, how's that?"
Dongfang Xue looked at Ghost One, frowned and shook her head, After thinking for a while, a divine sense penetrated into the Ghost Ring, and hurriedly asked Shu Lao Ke what he had just discovered.
After a while, the old scholar's voice came weakly and said to Dongfang Xue: "Young master, my subordinates also wanted to carefully investigate what it was just now, but as soon as their divine consciousness was released, they were beaten back by an inexplicable force, and they almost suffered a backlash. ”
"Is the old scholar okay?" Dongfang Xue asked worriedly.
"It's okay, it's just that the old man mentioned something about the young master, if the young master wants to understand, why don't you go to Nangong Yu and ask if it's okay?"
Dongfang Xue shook her head, and after a period of silence, she withdrew from the ghost ring. It's not that Dongfang Xue can't ask Nangong Yu, Dongfang Xue can even ask Huangfu Yanran, but when Nangong Yu told him about this matter that day, he secretly wrote it on paper, which shows that this matter is not simple. Dongfang Xue didn't want to implicate anyone when she came back again, Huangfu Yanran had already been implicated by mistake, Dongfang Xue couldn't implicate Nangong Yu......
Just when Dongfang Xue was puzzled in her heart, when the ghost was waiting beside her, suddenly a sound of laughter attracted Dongfang Xue's attention, Dongfang Xue followed the sound and looked at it, only to see a familiar figure on the moon viewing tower, this person only has one arm, and then guessed from the voice just now, It is not Ximen Hu or Heren. Dongfang Xue was secretly happy in her heart, she didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and she actually came to the Moon Viewing Building to spend all her time drinking, didn't she send it to the door! Since the Nangong family knew about it, the Ximen family must also know about it!
said that it was too late, and Dongfang Xue's figure flashed and appeared in the pavilion where Ximen Hu was on the moon viewing tower. Dongfang Xue's sudden appearance made Ximen Hu shocked, and immediately had the idea of escaping, but when he remembered his empty right arm, he suddenly broke the idea of escaping with a weak leg.
"Alone... Brother Dugu, don't sleep at night, what are you doing here...... "Ximen Hu stammered and asked in fear.
"Of course I'm looking for you!" Dongfang Xue looked at Ximen Hu and sneered, the ghost behind him had already pulled out the Shura Sword in his hand.
"It's... This... What are you looking for me to do......" Ximen Hu suddenly asked with a sad face, standing in place and trembling.
Dongfang Xue waved her hand at the maidservants in the pavilion, and the subordinates hurriedly bowed in fear and retreated, at this time there were only three people left in the pavilion, Dongfang Snow Ghost One and Ximen Hu.
Dongfang Xue smiled and said to Ximen Hu: "A question, change your life!"
When Ximen Hu heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground and said to Dongfang Xue: "Big brother, you ask!"
"Under the Hanging Moon Lake!" Dongfang Xue saw Ximen Hu's changed face halfway through speaking, and then asked, "What is it?"
Ximen Hu sat on the ground, and then shook his head, as he kept shaking his head, Dongfang Xue's face gradually became ruthless, Ximen Hu was so frightened that he retreated, and said tremblingly while retreating: "Dugu Gongzi! Dugu Gongzi... I can't say that... If you say it, you'll die... I'm going to die......"
Dongfang Xue heard Ximen Hu's words, and was even more puzzled about the secret under the lake, and then glanced at the ghost, who stepped forward and put the Shura sword on the neck of Ximen Tiger.
Dongfang Xue opened the folding fan and hurriedly fanned the wind, that's right, Ximen Tiger peed......
Dongfang Xue nodded at the ghost, and then turned around, as soon as the ghost signaled, he was about to start, and suddenly Ximen Hu shouted: "I know... I say... I said......"
Dongfang Xue turned to look at Ximen Hu, who was already sweating profusely at this moment, only to see Ximen Hu's face turned white, and his lips trembled and said, "There is a spirit ...... under the Hanging Moon Lake."
"What spirit?" Dongfang Xue saw that Ximen Hu didn't look like he was lying, and asked suspiciously.
Ximen Hu shook his head, and then continued: "I don't know, I only know that since the establishment of the Huangfu Dynasty, it has been guarding this spirit for generations, or watching this spirit ......"
"Why?" Dongfang Xue then asked.
Ximen Hu shook his head, and said while shaking his head: "I don't know... I do not know... I'm going to die... I'm going to die......" As he spoke, Ximen Hu stood up suddenly, wanting to run, but the ghost wanted to stop him, but after seeing Dongfang Xue shaking his head, he let Ximen Hu run away......
After Dongfang Xue returned to Dugu Mansion, it was already early in the morning, and after telling the ghost to return to the room, Dongfang Xue also returned to the room, thinking about what she learned about the spirit from Ximen Hu's mouth......
At this time, the Ximen family had already become a mess, because the eldest young master of the Ximen family, Ximen Hu, had gone crazy......
In the huge palace hall, Huang Fusheng was reviewing the folds under the candlelight, and suddenly a black shadow appeared from behind Huang Fusheng, whispered a few words in Huang Fusheng's ear and then retreated......
