Seventeen.

I admit that I am a timid person.

For example, when I am confronted with some cruel truths, my first reaction is to run away.

But this time, if I choose to retreat and protect myself, then the two most important people around me will be punished for me.

So, I had no choice.

"I'll go with you. I made up my mind and looked at Cui Jue intently.

Cui Jue nodded with satisfaction, and was about to pull me away, but found that I was firmly held by Su Yanqing.

"There's Su Yanqing, let me go!" Oh turned around and yelled at him, but the big hand was indifferent and only grabbed my wrist.

I looked up and saw Su Yanqing's painful and desperate eyes, a little soft-hearted, now all this, we are not wrong, but we have to suffer all the punishment.

"Demon King, do you know what you're doing?" Cui Jue's voice became more and more ruthless.

Su Yanqing didn't back down, became more and more determined, and pulled me back.

Seeing this, Cui Jue quickly jumped back to stabilize his position, and said helplessly: "You have given you a chance, but you don't cherish it, it seems that there are two more ghosts in the underworld today!"

These words echoed in the sky above the underworld, and the aftermath lingered in the ears. What followed was thousands of black hands coming out of the quagmire under his feet, scratching indiscriminately, desperately grabbing Su Yanqing's feet, making him unable to move.

The prototype is Su Yanqing, who is even weaker than before, in order to protect me, he holds me with one hand, and with the other hand, he gathers qi into a blade with one arm, and constantly kills the black hand.

But these black hands appeared in a steady stream, as if they were immortal, it was as difficult to deal with, Su Yanqing's robe had been torn in many places, and there were many wounds on his body, blood oozed out, and the white brocade robe was dyed red mercilessly.

Ming Shiqi saw that we were in trouble, and also came to help, but there were too many opponents, and both of them gradually became a little physically exhausted, I looked at Cui Jue, and was surprised to find that he was standing there, looking at us coldly, as if it was not effortless at all.

"There is Su Yanqing! Let me go! Isn't it just three days of thunder punishment!" I tried everything to persuade Su Yanqing, but he didn't listen to a word, even if his vision began to blur, he didn't mean to hand me over to Cui Jue.

Cui Jue still stood still, after all, he was the leader in this game, and he could crush us ants to death without much effort.

"Demon King, even if you can survive the Thousand Hands of the Black Marsh, His Royal Highness the King of Yama will arrive in a while, you will still have to be captured. ”

This sentence is like a heavy stone, and it pressed my heart fiercely, I don't want this Ming Shi to be missing and Su Yanqing to offend anyone for me again, and I began to break free from Su Yanqing's hand.

Su Yanqing also felt my resistance, and took advantage of the gap between the black hand and the rebirth, smiled at me dotingly, and said something that made my heart like a knife:

"Live. ”

Before I could react, Su Yanqing gritted his teeth and pushed me, and I was caught by Ming Shiqing.

"Take care of her. ”

This was the last sentence that Su Yanqing said to me in the underworld.

"There is Su Yanqing!!!" At that moment, I used all my strength to shout loudly, Ming Shique caught me and flew up with me without looking back, and I could only watch Su Yanqing fall to the ground with blood, engulfed by the black hand little by little.

Eventually, his flawless white robe disappeared into the darkness.

I shouted too hard, and the thick smell of blood lingered in my throat, and Ming Shique couldn't bear to see me like this, and covered my eyes with his hands.

His hand was warm and vigorous, and it hurt the softest part of my heart at once, I remembered the little time I spent with Su Yanqing in the forbidden land, in the bamboo forest of the Xiangjiang River, and when the snow was flying in Wushan, tears poured out uncontrollably, this time, I finally wanted to cry uncontrollably.

There is Su Yanqing, please come back alive.

Eighteen.

I don't know how long we flew, until Ming Shique gently put me on the lawn, I realized that we had left the underworld and came to the yang world.

The tears on my face have not yet dissipated, and my mind is full of scenes of Su Yanqing being swallowed by the swamp.

Looking at me with red and swollen eyes, Ming Shique felt a little distressed.

"Stinky Daoist, you say...... Will Su Yanqing catch up with us?" I asked him hopelessly, just wanting to ask for comfort.

Ming Shique squatted down, came to me and carefully wiped my tears, eased his breath and said:

"He's a demon king, how could something happen. ”

"Mingming...... Obviously, it only takes me three days to suffer a thunder punishment, why do you still do this?" I remembered the previous transaction between Cui Jue and me, and I really couldn't understand the behavior towards them, I looked up at Ming Shiqing, a little tired and desperate.

Ming Shique, who would never write his emotions on his face on weekdays, also had red eyes at this moment, and he looked directly at me with a deep look in his eyes: "Because neither the Demon King nor I want you to be hurt in the slightest." ”

His voice was a little hoarse, as if he had experienced some pain, choked up again and again, and was emotional.

I was still mired in grief and self-blame, completely oblivious to the emotions of the world - every time, really every time, I would be saved by these two people, even if I once told myself that I must not rely on anyone else this time, and in the end it was all.

The more I thought about it, the more I buried my head and began to talk to myself, Ming Shique wanted to stop me, but found that I couldn't stop like a madman, and in the end, in order to calm me down, Ming Shique, who has always been rational, grabbed my shoulder fiercely, and shouted to me at a high voice:

"Bai Xia Ying, calm down! I understand your feelings, but all this is our own volition, and it has nothing to do with you!"

It's not about me? You volunteer? It's not funny at all.

Who am I when you have Su Yanqing and Su Yanqing? Why do you want to go to the soup like this? Do I owe you anything in my previous life?

I sneered secretly in my heart, and raised my eyes weakly to stare at Ming Shique and asked him:

"Why are you so 'willing'?"

Ming Shique did not speak.

Seeing his reaction, I sneered, and for a moment I was radical and could not control my emotions, and shouted at him aggressively:

"Ming Shiqing, do you like me?"

The person in front of me was stopped by my sudden question, a little hesitant, I looked at him for a while, and found that this peerless face of the ascetic department showed a little panic and hesitation, and then roughly calculated the answer.

"Your avenue, your world, your cultivation of immortals, and your beliefs have all been ruined because of me, a demon girl, I will give you a chance, now let go of me and go back to your Kunlun to apologize to the master, maybe you can still make a fortune." ”

With that, I broke free of his hand and got up to leave.

Ming Shiqing, you didn't even think clearly about what you wanted, so you rushed into the underworld with Su Yanqing regardless of the punishment of heaven to save me, and shouted "voluntary" in your mouth, in fact, you regretted it in your heart.

That's it, your answer is already very clear, so next, you go back to your Kunlun Mountain, and I will go to my eighteenth layer of hell, and we will say goodbye.
