Neither of them noticed that not far from their side, the woman in palace clothes holding a black cat was quietly watching them.

I don't know if it's because of the 'soul contract', at this moment she frowned slightly, and there was a trace of sadness on her face. Seeing that the beautiful face on the other side turned from bright to dead, he couldn't help but sigh slightly, gently stroked the black cat in his arms and said to himself: "It's really a good luck for all men in the world!"

"Meow-" the black cat squealed aggrievedly, her body writhing uneasily in her arms.

The woman in the palace costume lowered her head and looked at the big blue eyes of the black cat, reached out and patted its head, and said angrily: "I didn't mean you." ”

"Meow-" The black cat rubbed her palm with satisfaction and fell silent.

Li Yu seemed to sense something, and looked up strangely, but only saw nothingness.

At this moment, Gong Hou finally spoke: "Subordinates, thank you for the success of the sect master!"

Li Yu didn't care about the source of the uneasiness in his heart, but turned his head in surprise, looked at the woman whose expression had returned to normal, and said with some uncertainty: "You have to really like him, I don't want you to be reluctant." If you have no intention of Jiang Zuo, the sect has recruited a lot of young people over the years, and we can investigate it slowly. Or we can hold a martial arts competition, and invite young heroes from all over the world to ......"

"No need!" Gong Hou interrupted, "Jiang Zuo's envoy is fine. ”

Li Yu didn't care about her rudeness, but said patiently: "You can't be sloppy in life, this is related to the happiness of your life, you have to think about it carefully." ”

Gong Hou said calmly: "The subordinates have already thought it through. Jiang Zuo is both civil and military, dignified, and calm, affectionate, and righteous, and has also taken good care of his subordinates over the years. If it weren't for Jiang Zuo's repeated desperate rescue, his subordinates would have died a long time ago, I don't know how many times. The sect leader is thinking about his subordinates, and it is difficult to repay his subordinates for their hard work!" After speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed three times, and when he raised his head again, there was actually an inexplicable smile on his face.

Li Yu felt a little uneasy when he saw this, and for a moment he wondered if he had done something wrong. But things have developed to this point, there is no reason to turn back, hesitated for a moment and tentatively said: "That...... I'm going to arrange for you to marry when I go back? I'm serious, if you want to regret it now......

"Thank you, Sect Master, for making it perfect!" Gong Hou smiled at him and bowed again.

Li Yu's words were suddenly choked in his throat, and he didn't say anything for a long time, so he said for a long time: "That's good." ”

The palace woman in the void looked at the scene in front of her, shook her head slightly, and said, "It's really boring! After so many years, everything is still the same." That's it, this girl's wish is not fulfilled now, and I can't bear to forcibly occupy her body. Let's talk about it later. He lowered his head and kissed the black cat's forehead lightly, and murmured, "Obsidian, do you think I can do this well?"

"Meow-" The black cat's head rubbed against her palm, as if in agreement with her decision.

From the appearance of the woman in the palace costume to the eventual disappearance, Li Yu never knew it, although there was always a feeling of being spied on, but when he looked around, he couldn't see anything.

But the most troublesome thing was finally solved, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, slowly stepped forward and stood at the edge of the stone platform, looking at the looming holes on the stone wall, and secretly wondered in his heart, "This place is so big, I don't know where she is locked up?"

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at the woman behind him and said, "Gong Hou, have you noticed where she is being held?"

At this time, Gong Hou was staring at his back stupidly, and when he saw that he suddenly turned around, he retracted his gaze in a little panic, and pointed down casually: "I saw her fall down with that sarcophagus." ”

"What?" Li Yu was taken aback, looked down at the bottomless abyss, and almost scolded his mother.

Before, he heard Su Jing's conversation with the mysterious woman, and always thought that Tang Zixi was locked up in a relatively safe place, and he only needed to come here to take her away, so he calmly designed to kill Qi Yongchuan, and calmly arranged her lifelong events for Gong Hou. He also expected that Tang Zixi might suffer a little, but he never expected that the situation would be worse than being locked up here and being eaten by a yin spider.

He didn't know what it was, but the smell of death and decay really filled his nostrils, making him reluctant to look down. So he didn't have to think about it, and he couldn't imagine what a terrible place it would be.

At this time, almost half an hour had passed since he and Su Jing were separated, and he couldn't imagine what terrible things that the timid and weak girl was going through during this time.

Gong Hou looked at the young man with a blue face, shrank down with some fear, and said, "Sect leader forgive sins, subordinates ......"

Li Yu seemed to remember that there was another person next to him, he looked at the same scarred woman and didn't say anything harsh after all, but just waved his hand a little tiredly, and said, "Forget it, blame me for not making it clear." After speaking, he closed his eyes and silently felt the breath brought by the abyss.

Gong Hou didn't dare to make a sound to disturb, but just bit his lip and looked at the figure, and a look of unwillingness gradually appeared in his eyes.

After a long time, Li Yufang opened his eyes and said to himself: "It's okay, it's not as deep as I imagined." After speaking, ignoring the complaining woman on her side, she climbed up the mountain wall to pull the thick and sturdy vines.

He moved quickly, pulling at a thick mass in a few moments, and then began to knot them together. He did it so seriously that he didn't even notice that Gong Hou walked to his side. It wasn't until a pair of soft and trembling jade arms gently wrapped around his waist and gently leaned his head against his back that he stopped the movements in his hand a little stiffly, and frowned: "Gong Hou, what are you doing?" struggled for a while but didn't break away, and he didn't dare to push too hard, for fear of hurting the other party.

Feeling the other party's struggle, Gong Hou hugged the person in his arms even harder, and murmured: "Brother Feixu, I like you!" Since I first saw you when I was nine years old, I began to like you, and I liked you so much that I was about to go crazy. ”

Li Yu was stunned at the first sentence, and the hand that was originally stretched out froze in mid-air, so he stood in a daze, letting the woman behind him hug him tighter and tighter.

"I don't know when we became like this. You're becoming more and more aloof, and more and more unpredictable to me. We used to be fine, and we were inseparable every day. You will be happy with me when I am happy, and you will make me happy when I am unhappy. I remember one time, I suddenly wanted to eat chestnut flour cake, but the chef in my church couldn't make it, so you secretly ran down the mountain to buy it for me. I ate the chestnut flour cake, but you were locked up by the sect leader for ten days. During those ten days, I hated myself every day for why I was gluttonous and why I was so hypocritical. It's just a piece of cake, and if you don't eat it, you won't die, but when I see you suffering, I feel like I'm going to die. I thought you would hate me and ignore me anymore, but the first thing you said when you came out was to ask me if my cake had been broken? You know what? At that moment I made up my mind that I would treat you well for the rest of my life. Even if I try my life, I will treat you well. ”

"Gong ......" Li Yu said with difficulty, but before he finished speaking, his mouth was held down by a soft hand, "You listen to me first." ”

"I know that I am a humble person, and I have never dared to expect to be your wife, I just want to stay by your side to take care of you and help you, Brother Feixu, I just want you to be happy. ”

"I know you don't want to be the Sect Master, because you hate those deceitful and bloody killings. It doesn't matter, I'll do it for you if you don't want to do it. I killed all those who were unfaithful to the Holy Church, subdued those who wavered, and personally took in many new Christians, successfully developing the Holy Religion to this day, and finally had a place in the rivers and lakes. ”

"It wasn't easy, but I persevered. Because it's all for you, I'm not afraid of anything just thinking that it's sharing it for you. From the vomiting nightmare of the first murderous person, to the current face that doesn't change, I knew I could. I can be your right-hand man, and I can be your most powerful subordinate. Brother Feixu, I did it, didn't I?"

Li Yu closed his eyes in pain, and his already calm heart surged again. He never knew that the woman behind him had done so much for him, and he never knew that this originally weak woman had to bear so much because of his arbitrary behavior.

At this moment, he finally understood why his mother always said that he wanted him to marry Gong Hou home. But that's not how it is, it's not how feelings are counted. In his heart, he has always loved Konghou as his own sister, and has never had any other thoughts about her. He knew very well that even if Tang Zixi did not appear, even if he had been facing her day and night, it would be impossible for him to have affection for her, let alone marry her home. He can't let the other party pay like this all the time because of selfishness.

He gently pulled off those arms and turned around, held the teary-eyed face with both hands, and said, "Gong Hou, you are a good girl, and you will be a good wife." But I can't deceive you with a clear conscience, I already have another shadow in my heart, and I can't forget her in this life. ”

Gong Hou's tears poured out like a spring, and he choked up: "I don't care, and I won't stop you from thinking about her and missing her." I only hope to stay by your side, even if I can't be your wife, just let me be a little maid, I am willing. Brother Feixu, don't marry me to Jiang Zuo, don't marry me to someone else. Is it good? Okay?"

"It's not like that, Gonghou, it's not like that. Li Yu's eyes were also moist, and for a moment he couldn't help but want to nod his head in agreement, but the last trace of conscience in his heart told him that he must not do that, because that would only harm three people.

Gong Hou suddenly cried and pushed him away, and said sharply: "What else do you want me to do? What do I have to do before you agree? I just want to stay by your side, can't this work? Do you have to die for you to regret it and agree? Okay, I will fulfill you!" After speaking, he turned his head and jumped.

"Don't!"
