I don't know the taste of sorrow Chapter 20 A secret plan
Do not return to the boundary, at the precipice.
A red shadow rolled up his sleeves in front of the cabinet shelves in the main hall, his hands as white as snow, fiddling with jam.
"Pear sauce, peach... Sauce, oranges... Sauce..."Yuelan chattered while fiddling, full of interest.
She only has a golden hairpin in her hair diagonally, but even so, she is already like a celestial, as a first-class beauty in Dongming Divine Continent, the dowry of those proposed men can add up to fill in the Dongming Sea, but she still can't take a second look.
The higher her appearance, the greater the responsibility, until she became a saint and looked down on all the people of the Shadow Clan, and those men stopped offending. And another reason why she wants to become a saint is to avoid the disturbances of these ordinary people, and the other is to guard the "softness" in her heart.
After a few broken steps, Yue Chai's was still dressed in a capable black shirt. She wears the same clothes every day, which makes people look like she doesn't change her clothes all year round, but if you look closely, you can find that the patterns embroidered on her daily clothes are different, sometimes it is a snake pattern, sometimes it is a butterfly pattern, but this small pattern is quite a doorway...
Yuechai stood still, and didn't dare to make a noise when she saw her focused appearance.
Yue Lan's eyes were still focused on her hands, but she was the first to speak: "There is a result?"
Yuechai heard her speak, so she moved a few steps closer to her and said, "Duqingquan has exploded." β
Yue Chai's face was serious, but his tone was very light, but Yue Lan's body couldn't help stiffening, her eyebrows frowned, her head turned sharply, and her tone was a little surprised: "Exploded?!"
Yue Chai nodded, she also knew that this matter was not trivial, "The wine fairy and that kid ran away, look in that direction, it should be Huixian Sect." β
Hearing this, Yue Lan's eyes suddenly became dull, and she secretly thought: "Duqing Spring has been formed for tens of thousands of years, how can it be easily exploded? Could it be that the power of the awakened Demon Ancestor is fighting against it? That kid turned back to the Immortal Sect, Xin Bai wanted to arrest him, but I was afraid that it would take some time." β
"Holy Maiden, your cook is hereβ" The maid who had been waiting for a long time finally took advantage of the pause between the two of them to interject boldly.
In a moment came the cook, who was waiting anxiously, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, which he carefully wiped away, not daring to attract any attention.
Yue Lan took the jar of jam, hooked it with her fingers as usual and put it in her mouth, and after carefully tasting it, she showed a satisfied smile, and said slowly: "Well~ Not bad, it's much more delicious than the peach sauce last time." β
When the cook heard her praise, his heart was overjoyed. The saint was moody, but he loved jam alone, and he worked it every day, and when she tasted it, it was the time of judgment, like begging for life on the tip of a knife. But as long as she is satisfied, she can get a hundred taels of gold every time, which is money that cannot be earned in a lifetime, he thought now, but the pile of gold appeared in front of him.
"But..."Yue Lan spoke, her eyebrows and eyes furrowed with the start of her lips, "I want... It is 'plum sauce', the plum of the green plum. β
The cook was startled, and hurriedly knelt on the ground with a thud, the sound of the kneecap hitting the ground was only afraid that there would be a bruise and a purple piece, but for the sake of his life, this pain was nothing.
"You... You didn't say you wanted anything that day..."The cook trembled all over, and the sweat went straight into his neck, and he didn't dare to misobey the Holy Maiden's orders if he gave him ten dares.
"Didn't I say that?" Yue Lan looked at him quietly, but those eyes seemed to be about to give birth to hooks.
"No... Oh, you said!" the cook hurriedly changed his words, and hurriedly said, "The villain will go back and make it for you!" and as he said this, he hurriedly got up and ran out, and at this moment he only wanted to save his own life.
"Stop. And this shout stopped, but it was sent by Yue Chase, she stepped forward and asked, "What are you running?"
"I... I went back and remade the jam for the Holy Maiden. He didn't dare look back.
"Redo it, redo it, why are you panicking?" Yue Chai said and went to take his shoulder, trying to turn his body around, but the cook dodged, and was about to flee with a light skill on both feet.
Suddenly, a demon screamed out of the hall, entangled him with lightning speed, he wanted to try to climb away, but that small power was tantamount to a mantis arm as a car, and was instantly captured back to the hall by the shadow, and was thrown hard by it.
Seeing this, Yue Chase stretched out his right hand, and a sharp sword was pressed against his throat, the sword flashed with cold light, shaking his eyes, and the tip of the sword could pierce his neck with a light send.
Yue Lan took the shadow and went to the couch unhurriedly, she was half-lying on it, playing with the broken hair that fell on her chest, evoking a sly smile, and said, "I didn't know that my cook had such a skill..."
"The saint spares her life, and the villain is also acting on orders!"
"Who's order, what to do?!" Yue Chai asked first.
"The Sect Master asked me... Keep an eye on your whereabouts, and... And poisoning your food. The cook said in a trembling voice, his eyes fixed on the sword, for fear that one of them would become a dead soul if he was not careful.
Yue Lan let out a long sigh when she heard this, but she had a helpless expression, and asked softly, "Yue Chai, you said... What did this Xin Bai eat to grow up, why did he always have such a stupid trick. β
"Hmph, Xin Bai's two veins are stupid, and the descendants are naturally like this, otherwise the two families have been working together for so many years, how can they still not fight our Yue Clan. Yuechai sang and harmonized with her.
"What about your poison?" Yue Lan asked again, this person had been by her side for a few days, but the jam sent was made of really good fruit, and there was nothing abnormal.
"The villain... The villain was not poisoned... You are the noble saintess of the Shadow Sect, how can you be easily offended, the villain really didn't dare to disobey the sect master, so he agreed verbally, but the matter of spying on his whereabouts and poisoning, the villain never did it. The villain only feels at ease to be a cook in this life, and he doesn't dare to have two hearts, so he begs the saint to spare his life. β
Yue Lan pursed the corners of her lips and began to test him: "Yo, listen to your tone, you are a loyal minion." β
"You are in a high position, and you have cultivated the 'Nine Shadows', you are the first person in the Shadow Sect, although the villain is stupid, but he has also heard that good birds choose trees to perch. The cook listened to her relaxed tone, and there was a hint of boasting in her words, so he whispered flattery.
Although this sounded comfortable to her, she sat up straight and glanced at her, and said, "Although what you said is good, in my life, I don't like sycophants to meet the wind and rudder..."
After hearing this, the cook was secretly shocked that he had lost his words and caused a big disaster, and hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy again and again.
"But... The plum sauce you just brought you is really delicious..."
The cook was happy and lucky for a while, but the next sentence was really killing him: "For the sake of your good craftsmanship, I will give you a whole corpse." β
As soon as the words fell, a shadow tore straight into his body, his eyes widened, and he choked in his throat before he lost his breath.
The shadow did not leave his body after the death, but emitted black smoke from the wound from the inside out, enveloping him heavily. Gradually... The cook's body shrunk and dehydrated, his flesh shrunk, the shape of his skull was distinct, and the outer layer of skin was like an ornament.
With a "bone lu", the two eyeballs came out of the eye sockets and rolled to the ground, and the whole person became a dried corpse, completely lifeless, and his shadow was gone.
Yue Chai stared at the lifeless body, and wondered: "This person looks like he has cultivation, why don't you ask him about his specific identity?" In her opinion, no matter which family it is, it will not end well if it goes against the Yue clan.
"What is there to ask, if you ask, you will add to your own blockage. Yuelan stirred her broken hair, not caring at all.
As a descendant of the Yue family, she has to defend her family's interests and glory. As a saint, she must be loyal to the Moon God and the Shadow Sect, even if she is not in harmony with the sect master, it is not appropriate to show it too obviously.
Yue Chai saw that her tone was a little bad, so she didn't dare to say more.
Yue Lan looked at the corpse, sneered, raised her eyebrows, and asked, "Guess what Xin Bai is doing?"
"He..."Yue Chai smiled and said, "If the left and right protectors miss, he will naturally be angry." β
