Bodhi

"No..." Su Xuechan held his belly with difficulty, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, "It's nothing... my brother just used up too much for a while..."

Su Xianxian dug out the elixir from the mustard bag, Su Xixi supported Su Xuechan, and fed the elixir to his mouth, the elixir was fragrant, round and bright, it was a good elixir produced in Qingqiu, but when Chanfu Su Xue heard it That smell made my heart feel a chill, and I subconsciously pushed Su Xixi's hand away.

"Brother is fine, you don't need to eat it," he forced a smile, "it's just the bottleneck period."

Su Xixi looked at him worriedly, while Lang Qing also stepped forward and said: "This kind of reaction is rare in the bottleneck period of cultivation, Brother Su must have been tricked by some means in Kongsang City."

"That's right," Su Xianxian also echoed worriedly, "Brother, you should take some medicine, there are still quite a lot of tricks from gods and men, but Xixi and I just don't know what method they used to see through..."

Su Xuechan straightened his body, swallowed his throat, and seemed to have eased a lot, he turned his head and said: "Qingqiu secret technique can indeed allow you to disguise yourself as another person to the greatest extent, but I guess, they can see through you, no It must mean that they have the magic weapon to restrain Qingqiu in their hands."

Lang Qing suddenly seemed to remember something: "Yes, I also find it strange, where did you find out the exact news that Guanxiong Kingdom offered white fox slaves to Wen Yangjin? The eldest prince of Guanxiong Kingdom came to Kong For several weeks, Sang spread the story of the gift all over the city, but only recently did it reveal that there were Qingqiu people who were captured inside. I have been wondering, how could it be such a coincidence that the news spread before you all arrived in Kongsang? "

Su Xixi murmured: "Could it be that we were already being targeted when we were meeting?"

Thinking of this, both she and Su Xianxian were afraid for a while, and the hairs on their backs stood on end.If this is the case, isn't their whereabouts always under the noses of those gods?From pretending to be in charge, to bribing the gods of the country, to sneaking into the city lord's mansion... This is simply a big trap waiting for them to jump in!Fortunately, they still thought they were clever and concealed. In the eyes of those gods and men, they were probably just two clowns with poor acting skills!

Su Xuechan sighed: "My mother just sent me a letter a few days ago, saying that all the people in the clan are safe and sound. When I went to Kongsang and found out the news, I knew there must be fraud. But since those gods and men didn't find out My whereabouts are enough to show that the Qingqiu secret technique is still effective, and they discovered you through other channels."

Seeing that they were like eggplants beaten by frost, their little faces were wrinkled with sadness, Su Xuechan hurriedly comforted and said: "It's okay, you are still young after all, and it is common for you to go out and experience inexperience. Think about it carefully, is there What fell into the hands of the gods, so that they can track down your traces?"

Su Xianxian thought about it carefully for a while, and then suddenly a flash of light flashed in her mind, and she suddenly realized: "Is it because Xixi was injured by a fan from that prince of the Chest Kingdom last time..."

Su Xixi also recalled: "That's right! Before Xianxian and I had finished the second tail, we met those gods and men in Wuzhu Barren Mountain, and then we were discovered by them. The Nine Nether Universe can't stop that person I spit out a mouthful of blood..."

"That makes sense." Su Xuechan nodded, and seeing the two little things still looked extremely regretful, she couldn't help laughing, "You have done a good job, you are very courageous, and you didn't embarrass Qingqiu. "

Su Xianxian still wanted to use the words just now to tell her elder brother about the strange behavior of the gods and men they saw that day, but seeing the faint blackness in Su Xuechan's eyes, she knew that her elder brother had been busy working on their affairs these days, and just now he appeared Such uncomfortable symptoms...

She said coquettishly: "Brother, it's getting late, I want to rest."

"Okay," Su Xuechan rubbed her head fondly, "Then let's make do with it for the night, and brother will figure out a way tomorrow."

The night is as cool as water, and the galaxy is bright, like the lights of thousands of families reflected on the deep sea, separated by a misty veil.

These days of worrying and tossing and turning, Su Xixi would not be able to sleep for a while when she reached a safe place. She got up from the gauze tent and saw that Su Xianxian was still lying beside her, so she lightened her movements and moved silently. Touched out from the tent.

The night wind was blowing very refreshingly, as if to sweep away the pressing haze of these days, she sniffed the fragrance of green grass in the air, and couldn't help but transform into a fox shape, flicking her two long tails to catch the scattered fireflies.

After fluttering for a while, it released all the fireflies it caught in its claws, but the tip of its nose was suddenly blown by the wind with a trace of water vapor.

It became curious, and its two white tails were like human palms, pushing away the dense grass that was as tall as half a person for it, and saw the smooth mirror-like lake sparkling under the stars. Sitting on the bank was a giant wolf as dark as the night, watching the lake motionless.

Is it Lang Qing?

It was about to sneak over and give it a surprise attack, but the giant wolf didn't look back, but its tone was a little helpless: "Xixi?"

Su Xixi was discouraged all of a sudden, and she rushed forward relentlessly, grabbed the giant wolf's smooth and long-haired back, and climbed Lang Qing like a hill: "Why did you call me by my name?"

The giant wolf's body remained motionless, but flicked its long tail on the ground to protect it under Su Xixi's body, "I heard your brother call you that."

"But that's my brother!" Su Xixi grabbed the hair on the giant wolf's shoulders and neck, and the giant wolf just bowed down in a good-tempered manner, letting the little white fox sit on his neck with two bundles of snow-white tails. Playing back and forth pamperingly on its back.

"You can't sleep either?" Su Xixi asked, "Why did you become a monster?"

A vague smile came from the giant wolf's throat: "What's wrong with the monster shape?"

"I thought you'd get used to human form."

The wolf has a tall monster shape, one black and one red pupil, and the wolf's ears are slender like a fox, which adds a bit of viciousness to the danger, but Lang Qing's gaze at the lake is almost gentle at the moment. It said: "In Kongsang City, I seldom turn into a demon body, because those gods and men don’t allow it.”

Su Xixi asked curiously: "By the way, I wanted to ask a long time ago, why don't you need to wear that restraint? And you can also be a cavalry captain in the City of Gods. What great achievements have you made?"

The giant wolf fell silent.

"Can't you say it?" Su Xixi rested her chin on the giant wolf's head.

Lang Qing smiled: "No, there's nothing you can't say. It's just because I'm a descendant of a god-man and a demon clan."

Su Xixi opened her eyes in surprise.

"My biological father was the previous city lord of Yanhuo Nation. As for my mother... I have never met her, I only know that she was executed by Yanhuo Nation, and she is a member of the Yanye wolf tribe."

Su Xixi said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked..."

"What's the matter?" Lang Qing shook his ears nonchalantly, "It's something that Kong Sangzhong knows just by asking."

It stared at the lake water wrinkled by the night wind: "Before I had the ability to transform into a human form, I was taken care of by a maid who once took care of my mother when she was pregnant. She is a god, but she is not bad to me, anyway It can make me full. Later, after I was discovered by this fire-hating city lord, she was assassinated, and I couldn't keep her life. Kill, why not be killed..."

Its eyes are far away, as if trapped in some distant memory: "... so many years have passed, I have lived in a daze for many years, I don't know what I care about, I don't know what I need, maybe I was just born A dog driven by a god, maybe I should be an unconscious knife, coming and going in the blood, and finally breaking in an unknown corner."

"However, I vaguely feel that it shouldn't be like this. Sometimes they call me a lowly bastard, they look down on the wolf blood in my body, and say that my mother killed my biological father, but I feel in my heart, I am indeed a despicable bastard—but what is really despicable is the blood of the fire-hating gods in me."

"Well... we do have some kind of inexplicable sense of pride," Su Xixi patted the giant wolf's ear, "or in other words, all ascetics will have this sense of pride, whether it is a human ascetic or a monster. By."

The giant wolf grinned, revealing the sharp and bright canine teeth inside: "Why, because we are a group fighting against the sky?"

"Yes!" Su Xixi said confidently, "We take life and luck from the hands of heaven. We step on the ground, but what we look up to is the boundless sky above our heads. Understand this? Why do they look down on us, we rely on ourselves to fight for everything, much better than the guy who just sits and eats for nothing!"

The giant wolf said with a smile: "But gods and men can also cultivate. Look at Wen Yang, isn't he much better than you and me?"

Su Xixi shouted unconvinced: "Then you can't look down on the Yaozu, and you can't trample and ruin them!"

Saying that, it raised its little paw and scratched the back of its ears, "... I don't know when Wazu created man, did he expect that God-man would become like this one day?"

"You can't talk about saints," Lang Qing said, "you are a bold little thing."

Su Xixi let out a breath from her nose, and suddenly asked cautiously: "Hey... I have another question."

Lang Qing: "Say."

"It's been so many years, have you thought about going to the Yanye wolf clan?" Su Xixi said, "I think there should be your relatives over there."

Lang Qing's eyes were a bit dazed: "But I don't know the specific situation of the wolf tribe. Even if my mother loses all her demon power and is forced to rob her by my biological father, she can still curse him with the power of her own blood." Killing, this kind of physique that there will be disasters wherever they go, I don't know whether they are walking alone, or living in one place like ordinary monsters, even if I want to find it, it is easier said than done."

Su Xixi lay on top of him, and also sighed worriedly.

That night, there were no stars or moon in the sky above the Immortal King's Palace, and the candles in the room danced, shaking the slender shadows reflected on the wall.

Wen Yu was expressionless, and silently picked up the wick, facing a bronze mirror, and put his fingers into his eye sockets.

If you look around, this room is much more refined and clean than the previous one in the kennel. Not only are tables, chairs, cabinets and beds readily available, the gauze is white, the floor is clean, and there is even a bronze mirror next to the bed. dressing table.

She is now the favored celebrity beside Wen'e, and, as long as she does not make any serious mistakes, this favor will always be with her, and her life in the palace will be much better than other slaves of the monster race .

Under the flickering red candle, her expression was somewhat gloomy for no reason. She exerted a little force with her fingers, and the socket of her right eye suddenly made an unbearable creaking sound. A round and clear pearl was picked out from the animal's eye socket.

She carefully looked at it with her remaining left eye, a faint smile appeared on her lips.

These are the new "eyes" given to her by Wen'e.

To be precise, it is the new "eyes" she begged from Wen'e.

Ever since she gouged out her own eyes and cured Wen'e with the phoenix blood contained in it, Wen'e regarded her as her confidant, and even made an exception to take her to various occasions where monster races were not qualified to participate. All the princes, ministers, guards and palace servants knew that a servant girl of the Yellow Bird clan would gouging out her eyes to heal her master's injuries with her own hands. What a loyal and sincere servant she was.

During those days, Wen'e walked with great pride and a bright face, and she also dutifully played the role of a loyal servant, and she was extremely humble to Wen'e in every move. She was like a mind and body. The soul of a completely separated dead person emerges from the womb, looking down on everything below; the body kneels down to the dust, humble and humble as a puppet at the mercy of others.

Wen'e has always been troubled by not being able to reward this good servant with some treasures, because no matter what she said, the servant girl would put on a sincere smile, knelt down to thank her, and refused in every possible way.

Finally one day, the city-state near the sea presented her with a box of pearls.

Those pearls are round and huge, full of precious brilliance, placed outside, each of them is a rare treasure that has never been born, but for Wen'e, they are all things that have been commonplace since childhood.

She was about to throw Pearl aside, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of Wen Yu's longing eyes.

"Why, do you want it?" She raised the brocade box in her hand.

Wen Yu gestured, pointed at the pearl, then pushed back the bangs on his forehead, and pointed at his own empty eye sockets.

Wen'e suddenly realized, couldn't help laughing and said: "You want to use this as an eye?! You slave, you really have a whimsical imagination!"

But Wen Yu just smiled embarrassedly and looked at her with earnest and flattering eyes.

"All right, all right," Wen'e put the brocade box on the table, "After all, you don't want any rewards, so choose yourself!"

Wen Yu cautiously approached the brocade box, stretched out two fingers, carefully picked up a smaller pearl from the top, put it in his palm and looked at it again and again, then Chongwen'e smirked.

Wen'e shook her head: "After all, she is a short-sighted servant girl... Okay, take it away, and give it to you!"

From that day on, Wen Yu had a brand new eyeball.

——A brand new, priceless eyeball.

Everyone in the world says that the Palace of the Immortal King is heavily guarded. Then, can a pearl with more functions be mixed with ordinary pearls and sent to the Immortal Kingdom, and presented to the noble princess inside?

It's hard to say, but it's not impossible, after all, the last time the person sneaked into the palace was fruit wine mixed with the poison of osmanthus bamboo.

Looking at the clam beads in her hands, she finally couldn't restrain the joy in her heart, and grinned silently.
