Xiahou Xun stopped plucking the strings with her slender jade fingers, and looked at the person opposite for some reason, "You ask me?"

Ye Zhishuo wore a plain robe, and the sleeves were light green bamboo, which was extremely elegant. He was idly wandering around with a cup of tea, "It's best to ask you about the ghost world." What are your plans for this Midyear Festival?"

"I don't know. Wait for me to ask......"

He put down the teacup, waved his sleeves, and a bamboo bone silk umbrella gradually appeared on the table. He said, "This umbrella is made by myself, and it is named after the bamboo, which can protect you from the sun and your soul from erosion. ”

Xiahou Xun nodded, and continued to bow his head to stroke the qin, and the sound of the qin came out of the pavilion, shuttling between the palaces.

Song Chengchao, who was criticizing the folding, suddenly stopped the movements in his hand, and there was an unknown meaning in his eyes. The maidservant girl came up to him and asked him if he had any orders, and he said, "Did you hear that...... Somebody's playing?"

The maid listened intently and shook her head blankly, "The slave didn't hear anything...... I think Your Majesty misheard?" he smiled bitterly and continued to read. How is that possible? The people who can play this piece are no longer there, and they must have been overtired and hallucinated lately.

......

On the gloomy and cold Yama Palace, the green firelight was faintly bright, and the Yama King sitting in the hall had a gloomy face, and the strange firelight reflected on his face, which was very hideous and terrifying.

He spoke in a low voice, his voice hoarse, "Falling owl...... This time you want to cooperate with my ghost world?"

The woman sitting in His Royal Highness has a delicate face, there seems to be a faint tenderness between her eyebrows, and a moon-white fairy skirt makes her a little slender. In the dark environment, it is like a bright moon.

Zhu lips lightly opened, "This Midyear Festival, Luo Fei is willing to help with all his might, not asking for anything else, just wanting to use the truth to listen." ”

Her eyes drifted to a corner of the hall, where a tall man stood with his hands in his hands, his face shrouded in darkness with a golden unicorn pattern on his wide inky robe, and only half of his face could be seen with a delicate silver mask shining through the cold light.

Hades pondered carefully, waved his hand, and asked the man to stand forward, "I hope that at that time, the falling eagle will not lose his trust." Listen to this, let's go with the moon protector. ”

The ink-robed man bowed his head slightly and walked down the hall.

After a few polite words with Hades, the woman left with Di Ting. Hades only looked at their backs and tugged at the corners of his mouth stiffly.

......

Two horses walked side by side on the desolate ancient road, dragging two long shadows against the setting sun. The two were silent, each figuring out what was on their minds. After a long time, he finally said his first sentence, "Why don't you bring an entourage?"

Gu Ximan looked at him sideways and smiled lightly, "It's eye-catching." ”

"Moon Protector, what are you inviting me to do this time?"

"When I arrived at Fu Su, I had my own arrangements...... You call me Ximan, the Moon Protector listens, it's too polite. ”

"Hmmm......"

"And what shall I call you......? It's just Di Ting, right?"

"Miss Gu is casual, but it's just a title. ”

"Hmm......" Gu Ximan looked at the front of the road, the evening breeze was sweeping the fallen leaves, and the dust was flying, she squinted her eyes and smiled, "The wind is sassy and the wood is Xiao Xiao...... Why don't you call you Saxiao?"

He also chuckled, "Okay." After a pause, he added, "Cai Sanxiu is in the mountains, and Shi Lei is full of vines...... That's how Miss Gu's name came about, right?"

"Childe also reads Qu Yuan's poems?" A light lit up in her eyes, as if she had picked up a treasure.

"It's just a little bit of a thing. It's a girl, with a chest of literature and ink, and a book of poetry in her belly, not like a person in the demon world. ”

"What does that boy think a person in the demon world should look like?"

"Insidious and ruthless, full of anger. ”

"Then in Childe's opinion, I'm like this, right?"

He just shook his head and didn't reply.

Gu Ximan didn't ask, and the two resumed their initial silence, and only the sound of horses' hooves could be heard around.

......

Jun Su reclined on the throne of the Falling Eagle Palace, casually peeling the oranges, one after another, peeling them but not eating them, just neatly putting them aside. He lowered his head, had no expression, and his crow-like eyelashes hung down, which was very good-looking.

His Highness's people knelt in a row, all of them bowed their heads, not daring to make a sound.

He glanced up lazily and said lightly, "You are the most powerful subordinate of the Wind Protector, and now that she is missing, what should you be guilty of?"

The group just said in horror that they didn't know, and no one knew the whereabouts of the Wind Protector.

Jun Su slowly raised his hand, and between his slender five fingers, a red halo condensed, and his cool thin lips were slightly hooked, as if he was mocking. Along with everyone's painful struggle, a faint smell of blood filled the air.

Suddenly, a white light flashed, cutting the blood-colored thread between him and the others. Seeing the person standing at the door, Jun Su put down his hand, tidied up his clothes a little, and stepped down from the throne.

A gentle female voice came from the door, "It's just some incompetent, don't be annoyed." At the time of employing people, even if there is more coolie, it is good. ”

With that, she glanced at the men and motioned for them to quickly retreat.

Seeing this, everyone picked up a life, and then fled and left the Falling Eagle Palace.

Jun Su looked the man in the ink-colored robe up and down, and bowed his head slightly, which was regarded as a greeting. Di Ting also bowed his hand politely, and did not say much. The first meeting between the two ended without saying a word.

Although Fu Su Mountain is the foundation of the Demon Realm, it does not look gloomy and terrifying at all, and it is very different from what Di Ting thinks.

The Falling Eagle Palace is in the middle of Fu Xuan, and it is blindly upward along the mountain road. There is a large open space in front of the palace, which is used for martial arts competitions and festivals. There are four valleys in the southeast, west, and north: Remnant Wind, Floating Flower, Mu Xue, and Ning Yue, which are the places where the four Dharma Protectors and their disciples live. As the name suggests, the breeze is warm all the time, the red is red in the season, the snow is flying all over the sky every year, and the moon is in the sky every night.

On the main peak of Fu Su is where the demon lord is located, and now it is called "Hanjiang". Few people can be appreciated by the king, so they can witness the grand scenery of Hanjiang Peak with their own eyes, but only a few people, even the Nuo Kite to the Dharma Protector, has never been on this peak, if there is a very urgent matter, he can only fly the pigeon to pass the book, he does not come to the palace, he does not want to pay attention, all by the four Dharma protectors to solve by themselves.

After the main peak is the forbidden place of Fu Xuan, which is used to store the forbidden art books of the demon world, punish sinners who fall into the owl, or raise spirits and monsters.

The most frightening thing is a forbidden forest laid along the mountain to prevent the outside world from attacking from behind. There is no daylight all year round, day and night, it is difficult to distinguish the direction, the miasma is thick, and the white bones of the forest can be seen everywhere. An animal called the Blood Bat gathers here, and unlike ordinary bats, they are more bloodthirsty and powerful, and no one dares to enter the Forbidden Forest except for the previous Demon Lords. Therefore, the name of the "Blood Sacrifice Forest" changed color when the Six Realms heard it. The trees in the forest have spirits, the branches and leaves can stretch and spread at will, and they can also change in a myriad of ways, and the same blood seals the throat, which makes people chill, and some people even name it "Drinking Soul". Whoever enters the blood sacrifice forest, the light one loses his life, and the heavy one scatters his soul, in short, he can't escape a dead word. The only difference is whether you can come out in the form of a soul or not, and whether you have the opportunity to be reincarnated.

Gu Ximan took Di Ting back to Ningyue Valley to settle down, and chose a quiet place for him to live. Everything was done, she specially instructed, "Fu Xuan is no better than other places, the surface is calm, but in fact, the valleys are fighting openly and secretly." If there is nothing to do, it is better to go to the other three places, especially Muxue Valley! ”

Di Ting has always had the ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood and speculate on people's hearts, but this time he didn't want to peek into what Gu Ximan was thinking, and he was not interested in the story of Mu Xue Valley. He is nothing more than a pawn sent by the king of Hades, just do what the eagle wants him to do.

After simply describing Fu Su's layout, Gu Ximan went to Hanjiang Peak alone, presumably Jun Su had been waiting for her for a long time.

Sure enough, under the acacia tree in front of the dormitory, Jun Su was drinking wine, and a man in his thirties was talking about something.

Seeing Gu Ximan approaching, they did not shy away from it, poured her wine, and invited her to sit down together.

Between them, they are like ordinary old friends, and Jun Su has lost the unbeatable appearance of the past. Gu Ximan still looked at the man's blessing and said softly, "Jiang is suspicious of seniors." ”

The man smiled and nodded, waved his hand, and motioned for her to sit down, "I haven't seen her for a few months, but Xiaoman is getting more and more well-behaved." ”

He took a sip of his wine and continued, "I heard, did you find Di Ting?"

Jun Su nodded, "If the ghost world wants to make trouble, we will add fuel to the fire and be a favor." I want to see what those so-called famous and decent people will do at that time. ”

Jiang Su's expression when he looked at him was a little complicated, and a sadness swelled up in his eyes. He sighed and said, "You shouldn't be in charge of these things, and I know you don't care about them." You're just trying to take advantage of the truth. There is no one here, just say anything you have to say. ”

Jun Su smiled bitterly and looked up at the already depressed branches of the acacia tree, "Jiang Su, what do you say...... This acacia blooms year after year, why hasn't she come back? Are you really angry with me?"

"My sister left, but it was last winter, where did the acacia flowers come year after year?"

Jiang Su shook his head, as if helpless.

"Really?"

Jun Su said, raised a hand, the white light between the slender five fingers lightly, a tree withered leaves fell, flowers bloomed slowly, under the vast sky of Hanjiang Peak, like a soft dream. He muttered, "I'm mistaken, this year is longer than the previous ten million years." ”

Jiang Su laughed at him, "You and I are not mortals, even I am a god who looks down on life and death, not to mention that you are a demon who is not afraid of heaven and earth." ”

His eyes suddenly froze, "The difference between you and God is that you have not shown mercy to the people in the world, and the difference between you and the devil is that you have not cherished what you love." You are a person who can even give up your own sister for your own selfish interests, it doesn't mean that I am the same, you and I are not the same kind of people. ”

Jiang Su shook his head, drank all the wine in front of him, brushed his sleeves and left, "Di Ting can distinguish between truth and falsehood, good and evil, but you may not know love and hatred, if you do something wrong, no one will bear it with you." ”

"The biggest mistake in my life is that I failed to kill Bai Feiming and Ye Zhishuo a year ago. He muttered to himself, paused, and looked sideways at Gu Ximan, "As long as Di Tingli is willing to help us, she will definitely come back, right?"

Gu Ximan lowered her head, not daring to look directly into his eyes, she had never seen all the sadness and loneliness there.

In the end, she just relieved, "I hope so." ”

Jun Su's spell did not last long on the acacia tree, and after only a glass of wine, it withered, drifted down, and fell into mud. A light pink acacia fell into the cup, waving a crisp aroma of wine, the corners of Jun Su's lips hooked a smile, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and he said to it, "I know it's you." Don't be afraid, you'll be back soon......"
