Transmigrated into a book and became an npc

Chapter 17

"It's strange, it was clear that it was still ahead just now, why did it disappear in the blink of an eye?"

Qi Yanran followed the direction of the black shadow and chased it for about a hundred meters. Just a second ago, she could clearly see the black shadow, and a second later, it was gone. No trace of it.

"Is this speed a little too exaggerated?"

Qi Yanran murmured in disbelief.

"Host, the scene just now coincides with your previous dream, so there are dangerous people tonight..."

"Ah! The Ninth Prince..."

Thinking of the previous dream, what happened in it was not only completely different from what was described in the original book, but also the person who was accused of being the mastermind in the original book became the target of the assassination in the dream.

Since it is possible to know the direction of the situation in advance, we must find Xiao Xuqing before others, so that he will not be in danger.

"Huh? Host, your thoughts just now are not quite right."

"Ah? What's wrong? Shouldn't it be my concern to ensure the safety of the Ninth Prince?"

It's a strange system. I just reminded myself that if something goes wrong with Xiao Xuqing, or if I fail to help Xiao Xuqing achieve her wish, then I will really disappear, whether it's here or in the original world.

Then what's wrong with her caring about Xiao Xuqing?So should she care or not?

"Host, what were your previous thoughts... You think I don't know? It's all perfunctory thoughts, but think about the point you were concerned about just now, and the state you were worried about just now, compared with the previous one. , You may not be able to discover it yourself, but the bystanders will know."

"Well, what a mess, you've said a lot, what exactly do you want to express?"

Qi Yanran frowned in distaste, this idiot system, how can it be so devious when talking now?How can we talk about the point directly?

"Hehe, host, you can experience it slowly, it's boring to spoil it too early."

"..."

Mysterious... Forget it, without wasting time, Qi Yanran wants to find Xiao Xuqing as soon as possible.

So she returned the same way again, back to the rockery, but unfortunately, it was already empty. Qi Yanran looked around and found no sign of Xiao Xuqing.

"It's unreasonable. There's not much time delay before and after. How come there's no one left?"

Qi Yanran was not familiar with the imperial palace, she suddenly felt that even though she tried her best to avoid danger, she seemed powerless...

"What should I do?" Qi Yanran's eyes dimmed, and she tilted her head to look at the way she was looking. "Is this really fate? A fate that cannot be changed?"

"Miss Qi intends to become a human statue in the palace?"

Ah... Could it be that this voice is really another village?Just now Qi Yanran was still complaining sullenly, but the next moment, the expectant person appeared.

"Ninth Prince, where did you go just now?"

Qi Yanran's dim eyes suddenly lit up, as if lost and found again, both hands clutched Xiao Xuqing's sleeves, with a smile on her face that Xiao Xuqing had never seen before.

Xiao Xuqing did not answer Qi Yanran. She slowly lowered her gaze and looked at Qi Yanran's hands holding her sleeves. For a moment, the corners of his mouth curved into a beautiful curve that was difficult to detect.

"Uh..." Qi Yanran saw that Xiao Xuqing didn't seem to notice that what she said just now, she just lowered her head and focused on a certain place, and followed his gaze to find that she didn't know When did he hold Xiao Xuqing's sleeve, and he didn't seem to want to let go, "I'm sorry, my lord, Yan Ran was rude just now." The slightly embarrassed speech did not know how Xiao Xuqing would react.

Qi Yanran raised her hand and lightly touched her cheek, the hot touch, she thought if it was daytime, she would be able to see it, she suddenly felt very lucky that it was night.

"I can understand that...Miss Qi is worried about me?"

Qi Yanran kind of wants to dig a hole in the ground, and then go straight into it, or run away?This is better than facing Xiao Xuqing in embarrassment, right?

"Hehe, no matter what the lord... you may be Yanran's brother-in-law in the future, so naturally you need to care about it occasionally, huh." Qi Yanran smiled very bluntly, "Besides, I haven't helped the lord yet. You caught up with your cousin, this task is not completed, and I will always miss it in my heart."

Is it okay to be so hard?Can you be a little bit more heart-warming?

Xiao Xuqing still didn't speak at this time, but quietly.Getting closer to Qi Yanran, Qi Yanran didn't realize it at first, but she gradually realized it, and she began to back away little by little.

She didn't dare to look at the man opposite her. She could only lower her head and stare at the hem of the skirt. She held one side of the skirt with her hands and kept rubbing it.

"Host, if you step back, you will be in the lake, okay?"

"Huh? Huh?"

Qi Yanran was taken aback just now, although she knew it was not far from the lake, but there is a fence around the lake for protection, so it should be considered safe.

It's just that Qi Yanran realized that if she wants to be absolutely safe, she must stay away from the lake. On the other side of the lake, it seems that there are many people. Is the banquet about to start?

"How can you be so half-hearted in front of this king?" At some point, Qi Yanran had retreated to the edge of the fence, and Xiao Xuqing's hands were placed on the fences on both sides of Qi Yanran, which was equivalent to encircling Qi Yanran. Now, Qi Yanran looked at both sides in confusion, before she had time to react, her jaw was caught by Xiao Xuqing, "Miss Qi doesn't care about this king so much? Huh?"

That ending sound made Qi Yanran feel a little chills down her back, she didn't dare to take a breath, her brows twisted into the word Chuan, her eyes were slightly panicked, and even more puzzled.

She finally had some understanding of the saying that a king is like a tiger. Why were the kings in ancient times so...casual?Shouldn't you be strict with yourself?One second it was like seeing poison, but the next second it will be calm, does this face hurt?
"Nine, Lord Nine...why do you persist in embarrassing Yanran?" Qi Yanran's chin was pinched, and she was forced to raise her head to meet Xiao Xuqing's cold eyes, but...for some reason today, the usual The desolation here seems to be much less today, "Didn't you agree with Yanran to help the prince create more opportunities for you to be with Pinyun? You don't need Yanran's help now, do you?"

"Look, not only do you not take this king seriously, but you are now threatening me so openly and openly." With all the conscience on earth and heaven, how could Qi Yanran dare to threaten me? She wished she could agree to all Xiao Xuqing's requests, as long as he could stop looking for her. It's troublesome for her. Is it difficult for her to just be a quiet NPC? "Miss Qi, it seems that I am too kind to you, so I gave you some inappropriate illusions. It seems... I need to use some appropriate method to remind you."

illusion?What illusion can there be?The one with the illusion should be Narcissus himself, right?It doesn't matter if you place random charges, you are still living in your own world, and you can't listen to Qi Yanran's cries at all... What should I do?Who can pull this narcissus out and throw it away?
