Romance is broken again

So the next day the prince went to Tianyin Temple by himself in a carriage, the abbot came out to greet him, and went to the waiting room, the prince directly stated his intention and asked Tianyin Temple to hunt down the released red fox.

There was only one monk who could go to that mountain forest, so the abbot immediately knew who that person was.That person can be said to be a once-in-a-century Buddhist genius, and the abbot has even decided that if he passes away in the future, the position of abbot will be passed on to that person.

Since the red fox was let go, it means that he is involved in this karma, so naturally he, the person in charge, should handle this matter, not to mention making good friends with the royal family, which is absolutely beneficial to the future development of the temple. of.

Nie Yan now went to the Buddhist temple on the other side of the river to devote himself to practice. He came back once last night. At that time, the abbot was still puzzled. A matter that has deep ties to the royal family.

"...Your Highness, please rest assured, our temple will send the red fox to the Prince's Mansion within three days." It was the one who released it, and it was reasonable for him to find it back. The abbot took up this task on his own.

There was a slight smile on Prince Yaoguang's stern face: "Then the king will wait for the abbot's good news."

Watching the prince and the guards go down the mountain, the abbot waved his hand and called a monk to come and ask him to find Nie Yan and return to the temple immediately.

As for the other side, they crossed the river and temporarily rested overnight in a small cave. The next day, Nie Sheng hugged Xu Congyi who was in the form of a fox and quickly left the dense forest and mountains.

The journey was very peaceful, with no surprises or dangers.They rested once or twice on the way, and the dark night was always sucked down from the distant skyline. The two demons found an abandoned wooden house in the mountains, and spent the night in the wooden house.

Dust accumulated all over the room, the two wooden doors were in disrepair for a long time, creaked by the blowing mountain wind, Nie Sheng's right hand immediately turned into a vine, pulled both wooden doors together, and came out of the door frame As soon as Xu Cong found a bundle of dry grass nearby, he held it in his arms. When he came back, before he got close, two broken wooden doors flew straight towards him.

Although Xu Cong's foot injury was better than yesterday, but Menfei's speed was too fast, and he didn't react immediately. Seeing that the wooden door was about to hit him, Nie Sheng hurried over, and green vines jumped from his arms. Come out, snap, and slap the door open.

The broken door barely brushed Xu Cong's shoulder and smashed behind him.

Nie Sheng rushed to Xu Congyi and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Congyi, I didn't notice you coming. Did you get hurt anywhere?"

"No, I'm fine. You knocked down the door."

"That's right, it keeps creaking, I'm afraid it will affect your night's rest." Nie Sheng said.

Xu Congyi smiled warmly, walked back to the wooden house with Mie Sheng, walked to a corner, put the dead grass in his hand on the ground, and laid it carefully.

Night fell quickly, and after eating some food found along the way, the two demons sat side by side against the wall. After running around for a day, Nie Sheng leaned on Xu Cong's shoulder and fell asleep after a while.

Xu Congyi took off his red dress while Nie Sheng was asleep, and put it on Nie Sheng. The temperature in the mountains was low, so it was a subconscious behavior, as if he had forgotten that Nie Sheng was a tree demon, different from him , in fact, it does not feel cold.

For the whole day, he basically nestled in Nie Sheng's arms in the form of a fox. It can be said that there was almost no sleepiness. Xu Cong opened his eyes and looked outside the house. This night, the moon and stars were scarce, much better than yesterday, and the moonlight was like silver, shining on the earth.The trees and green grass in the mountains can basically be clearly distinguished.

"How's it going?" Xu Cong's eyes showed interest.

"What progress?" There was neither a beginning nor an end, and the system had no way of knowing what Xu Congyi wanted to know.

"Where did the Taoist priests go?"

System: "They didn't come after them."

"Huh?" Xu Congyi was suspicious this time, but those Taoist priests chased them for several days, so they gave up so easily for no reason.

System: "Substitution, not them."

The system seemed to be trying to trick Xu Congyi on purpose. When Xu Congyi asked who it was again, it told Xu Congyi.

"What do you mean?"

System: "Yes, a Taoist preached to the prince, instigating that it was Nie Yan who deliberately let you go. The prince Yaoguang went to Tianyin Temple and asked the abbot to arrest you within three days."

Xu Cong lowered his eyelids slightly, digesting the information provided by the system.

It's true that he didn't fight against Nie Yan, but he didn't need to. He and Nie Sheng together probably wouldn't be Nie Yan's opponent.

From this point of view, he was afraid that he would be arrested by Nie Yan, and then sent to the Prince's Mansion to have his heart cut open.

"Is the Danmei line triggered?" The value of the romance line is increasing steadily, and Xu Congyi is more concerned about the Danmei line.

Those who practice Buddhism must cut off their emotions and desires, but he really wants to see what the target of the Danmei line will be, and what will happen if he violates his desires.

The system checked the Danmei line, and said, "No trigger."

It did not meet his expectations, and he only met once, and this side seemed to leave a bad impression on Nie Yan.Then you have to play well next time.

When the sun rose high again, a trace of the destination valley was already visible.However, when they passed a waterfall, Nie Sheng jumped to the edge of the pool, ready to drink some water, a basilisk jumped out of the pool.

The snake demon quickly wrapped its tail around Nie Sheng's waist, and dragged her into the pool. Nie Sheng screamed in shock, and Xu Cong, who was waiting on the side of the road, saw something happened suddenly, and immediately jumped on it.

The snake demon entangled Nie Sheng and went straight to the bottom of the water. Xu Cong jumped into the water and grabbed Nie Sheng's waving arm. The snake demon's huge head turned and bit the other hand of Nie Sheng, and the venom spread rapidly Entering Nie Sheng's body, Nie Sheng gradually stopped thumping, her eyes that were originally open also began to close, her body fluctuated, and she was about to return to its original shape.

With the sound of splashing water, the snake demon raised its upper body and looked at Xu Congyi, who was tussling with it. Cruelty and mockery shone in the dark green snake pupils.

Xu Cong glanced around quickly, and then saw a wooden stick, without thinking about it at all, Xu Cong grabbed it with the palm of his hand, and the wooden stick flew straight towards him.

Holding the end of the wooden stick tightly, Xu Congyi rushed towards the snake demon with a cold face.

With a flick of its huge tail, the snake demon threw Nie Sheng into the pile of rocks beside the pool, facing Xu Congyi who rushed forward, watching the fox demon throw himself into the net.

The snake demon wrapped Xu Cong's waist with his tail, pulled him closer to him, and exerted force suddenly.Severe pain came from his waist, as if his bones were about to be crushed, Xu Cong gathered one finger bone, and before being strangled unconscious by the snake demon, he pointed the wooden stick in his palm at the seven-inch position of the snake demon, and exhausted all his strength. Stab it with all your strength.

The wooden stick was infused with demon magic, causing the originally not-so-sharp wooden stick to suddenly change into a sharp sword, piercing the solid snake scales of the snake demon, and directly piercing its heart.

The snake demon was injured, and let out a shrill and sharp scream. Its body shook wildly, and at the same time, the strength of its tail did not decrease, and it even became stronger.

With a clicking sound, the coiled fox demon was strangled by the waist.

The gigantic body of the snake demon fell into the secluded pool, splashing white water several meters high.The fox demon wrapped around it sank into the water together with it, and the scarlet blood gradually spread, staining the entire pool of water red.

The bodies of the two demons quickly disappeared under the water surface, and the water surface rippled layer upon layer, and after a while, it returned to its original calm.

The birds and beasts in the forest all ran away when the snake demon appeared, and when the water in the pool was calm, there was only a restored peach blossom tree on the side.

Suddenly, an unexpected sound startled the bird that had just settled down.

Amidst the splashing of the water, a bright red figure appeared.He was drenched and his clothes were wet.

Swimming out of the pool and climbing ashore, Xu Congyi sat down by the pool, his back arched, his hands covering his stomach, his chest heaving up and down violently, and he was panting heavily.After resting for a while, he stood up shaking his body, and cast a small drying spell on his body. The soaked clothes were all dry in a blink of an eye.

He turned around and limped towards Nie Sheng who was lying on the pile of rocks.

Nie Sheng was poisoned by the snake venom, and it turned into a peach tree. The tree was turning black little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Xu Cong raised his arm and spread out his palms. Inside was a blood-stained snake gall. He squatted down beside the peach tree, raised his hand above the peach tree, and crushed the snake gall. The green bile dripped on the surface of the peach tree, turning black slowly Slowly retreat, the peach tree turns green again.

When the bile was exhausted, Xu Congyi took a deep breath, waved his arm on the peach tree, and the peach tree shrank several times in an instant, only the size of a palm. Xu Congyi carefully lifted the peach tree and put it in his large cuff.

It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, the commotion is really not small, after he put away Mie Sheng, he jumped to the side hillside, this time he ran with Mie Sheng.

But the speed is twice as fast as that of Nie Sheng.

However, no matter how Xu Congyi expected it, he never expected that there was only about half a mile away from the destination valley, and there was a person standing at the only passage ahead.

The morning wind blew, stirring the pure white robes of the visitor. Amidst the sound of hunting, the monk holding a string of black pool Buddhist beads had cold eyes, staring at the fox demon who was running over and suddenly stopped.

The monk has a handsome face and is standing against the light. His whole body is covered with a faint halo, like a god. His eyes first lingered on Xu Cong's side for a while, then moved down, and fell on Xu Cong's closed eyes. cuffs.

From the breath of strength transmitted in the breeze, he knew that the peach tree demon Mie Sheng was also there, but for some reason, it accidentally turned into its original form.

He originally thought that escorting Nie Sheng and the fox demon across the river would settle the cause and effect between him and Nie Sheng, but he never thought that this would increase the entanglement between him and the fox demon.

However, it was God's will, and he couldn't change his mind against the sky.

Nie Yan approached Xu Congyi step by step, the fox demon's foot injury seemed to have not fully healed, and he was not his opponent.

Xu Cong's whole face was tense, watching Nie Yan getting closer to him.

"Master, you..." Nie Yan had helped them once before, and Xu Congyi couldn't believe that Nie Yan, a monk, would become the same as those Taoist priests who are mercenary and greedy for glory and wealth.

Nie Yan looked at Xu Congyi's astonished fox eyes, and seemed to know what he was thinking at the moment.

However, let him choose one side among the monks in the temple and a fox demon, and the answer is quite obvious.

"Fox demon, I advise you to catch it with your hands tied." Nie Yan stood still a few feet away in front of the fox demon, then said.

Xu Cong's eyes were full of astonishment: "The emperor is seriously ill, and he wants to dig out my heart to treat him. I want to ask, why?"

Nie Yan's expression remained unmoved, like a silent ice pool: "It's destiny, no matter how hard you struggle, you still can't escape this fate."

"If I question and want to resist, what will happen to the mage?"

"Naturally, it makes you unable to resist." Mie Yan's eyes froze suddenly, and the cold air hit the opposite fox demon, and the latter's expression trembled slightly.

Xu Congyi smiled wryly to himself, and then his whole body showed momentum, his voice full of bitterness.

"I know I can't beat you, I won't resist, I just ask you one thing."

Nie Yan frowned slightly, but didn't answer.

Xu Congyi then said: "Nie Sheng told me about you. We were attacked by a snake demon at the waterfall in the mountain before. Nie Sheng was poisoned by the snake and is now very weak. If I go to the Prince's Mansion, I will I can no longer take care of her, she has raised you for many years, for this sake, please take care of her for a while until she regains her human form."

Xu Congyi cared more about Nie Sheng than that he would be heartbroken and killed soon.In addition to the one life he lost just now, he still has eight lives, dig out a heart, die once, and he can be resurrected again.

Nie Yan's pupils trembled slightly, originally thinking that Xu Congyi might have other requests, but unexpectedly it was not for himself.

Even if he doesn't mention it, he won't abandon Nie Sheng.After all, that was the person he had called his mother for several years. Although it was a transvestite, he was not really ungrateful at all.

"Okay." Nie Yan nodded, accepting Xu Congyi's request.

"Thank you very much." Xu Cong smiled warmly, and he took out the shrunken peach tree from his cuff, and placed it gently on the green grass beside him.

Then he straightened up, turned his body quickly on the spot, and in a swaying red mist, he changed from a human form to a fox form.

The fiery red tails hang down on the ground, and if you look carefully, there are only eight of them.

Nie Yan stepped forward, first gathered the peach tree into his robe, then stretched out his hand, ready to hug the red fox, when his fingertips were about to touch the fox's soft and beautiful hair, he suddenly withdrew his hand.With a sudden wave of the sleeve robe, it directly covered the red fox, and put it away in an instant.

In Nie Yan's monk's robe, all senses were accidentally shielded, he couldn't see anything, he couldn't hear any sound, Xu Cong always closed his eyes and fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept this time, and when I woke up again, Xu Congyi found himself in a strange place.

There are cold and hard walls on three sides, and a metal iron fence is directly opposite.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call this place a prison cell. Xu Congyi stood up from the ground, and when he looked down, he saw that he was wearing a white inner garment, and his red outer garment was taken off, and he disappeared.

The real source of that dress was his fox fur, and without the fox fur, he could no longer turn into a fox.Even, his eight tails were attached to the fox fur, not him.

If his heart is dug out, this time of his death is also the last and only time.

This world is so unexpected, it is always in the midst of changes, unlike the past few worlds, no matter how things change, at least he can adapt accordingly.There are obviously more other characters added here, and it seems that these characters have more conflicts with him.

"Don't worry too much. I just learned one thing from the law. Nieyan has a special identity." The system made a sound when Xu Congyi's eyes were deep in thought.

"What identity?" Xu Congyi looked outside the dark cell, which was quiet, as if he was locked up alone.

"He is the eldest son, the eldest son of the current emperor. His mother and concubine were framed and kidnapped out of the palace. Just before he died, he was successfully delivered. Later, by chance, he was discovered by Nie Sheng, who brought him back and raised him for several years. years."

"Prince?" Xu Congyi was quite surprised, he didn't expect Nie Yan to have such an identity.

"Does the emperor know?"

System: "I don't know, the only ones who know about this at present are the crown prince Yaoguang and a few cronies around him. This time, Nie Yan sent you to the prince's mansion. It was originally considered to have completed the task. You can go back to Tianyin Temple. On the grounds that you rose up to resist on the day you dug your heart, let Nie Yan stay and wait until the emperor eats your heart before leaving."

"The crown prince's calculation is not limited to this." Xu Cong said, since the crown prince knows the true identity of Nie Yan, no matter what the future holds, Nie Yan's existence is a threat. People who are already dead don't need to live anymore .

"According to what was mentioned in the plot of the novel, both Nie Yan and Yaoguang lived well, and nothing happened to either of them." The system checked the summary of the future plot.

"Whatever, whether they die or not, I will definitely die soon." There is no doubt about this.

Xu Cong once again sat against the wall on the cold ground. Without his skin, he seemed to be similar to ordinary human beings, even more fragile than them. Bitter cold air penetrated into every pore of him from all directions, and he was so cold Curl up your arms and legs, curl yourself into a ball.

He shouldn't be so impatient, what should happen will always happen, although the Danmei line has not been triggered yet, but it will definitely happen sooner or later.He has figured out a little bit of the underlying rules, he just needs to deal with it more calmly and calmly.If it doesn’t work, just fail in the strategy. I have succeeded so many times, and it’s not good to fail once in a while. Maybe it’s the norm to win and lose.

Having figured it out like this, Xu Congyi endured the boundless chill and waited quietly, waiting for his fate.

Destiny came quickly, Xu Congyi had just closed his eyes for a short time, and there was the sound of iron locks being opened in his ears.

Not long after, a gray-robed Taoist priest with a dust whisk in his hand approached from outside the iron prison. Xu raised it from a head and moved his arms. When he saw the Taoist priest in front of him, he subconsciously shrank back, but behind him A solid wall, he has nowhere to hide.

There was blatant greed in the Taoist's eyes, and he stared straight at Xu Congyi, seeing that Xu Congyi was afraid of him, and there was an evil smile on the corner of his mouth.

The Taoist priest raised his whisk lightly, and said to the rear: "Open the door." Immediately, a guard came over, holding a key in his hand, walked outside the iron gate, and opened the iron gate two or three times.

As soon as the door opened, Xu Congyi stood up immediately, and the guard stood by the door, with vigilance and vigilance on his face.

The Taoist priest pushed the man away with his whisk and walked into the cell.

He walked straight up to Xu Congyi, and even pressed Xu Cong's jaw with a dust whisk, forcing him to raise his head.

"You are still in my hands." I think he chased this demon fox back and forth for four or five days, but when he was about to succeed, he let the other party escape, but there is a saying, it is his end It is his, no matter how far you run, it will come back to him.

Xu Congyi pursed his lips tightly, his eyes shaking violently.

"Don't talk? Yes, keep it for later." The Taoist took the whisk away, thinking that Xu Congyi's silence was because he was afraid.

Xu Cong raised his hand, ready to open the whisk against his chin. As soon as his fingertips touched the whisk, there was a burst of burning and sharp pain. It was red as if the flames were burning.

The Taoist stared evilly, and there was an obvious smile in his words: "Be careful, this thing is not something a monster like you can touch casually."

Xu Congyi glared at the Taoist priest viciously, and the latter seemed happier after being stared at by him.

"Let's go, we're already waiting outside." The Taoist took away his whisk and signaled Xu Congyi to get out of the cell.

His hands and feet are free, and he is not bound by shackles, but even so, he cannot escape, let alone a Taoist priest with magic, even the guard at the door, he is no match for the other party.

As soon as Xu Cong walked out of the cell, he walked to the only aisle. The Taoist priest followed him about half a meter behind him, and the guards were on the other side.

Walking outside, seeing the bright sky, Xu Congyi sighed in his heart.

Walking out of the high wall all the way, they came to a spacious courtyard. There were already several people standing in the courtyard. The leader was a young man wearing a yellow dress and a red robe, with a yellow belt around his waist and a golden hair crown on his head. Nobility, although he had never seen it before, but with just one glance, Xu Cong knew it was the notice issued by this person to arrest him.

The crown prince of this dynasty fluctuates.

After Xu Congyi appeared in the front yard with the Taoist priest, Yaoguang has been watching him. Seeing his face that is no different from ordinary people, he is slightly suspicious. What he saw yesterday was the original form of the other party, and now he appears in human form. , making Yaoguang wonder if the red fox has been dropped.

When the person approached and saw the faintly seductive eyes of the other person clearly, Yaoguang knew in his heart that this person should be the red fox.Foxes are born with a charming physique. Although this fox is not outstanding in appearance, his physique is real. Even he, who is used to seeing many beauties in the world, feels his heart a little when he looks into his eyes. Ripples.

"Your Highness." The Taoist bowed slightly respectfully towards Yaoguang.

Yao Guang raised his hand slightly, indicating that there is no need to be polite.After that, without further words, he turned around and walked quickly outside the high wall with the guards.

Xu Congyi stood in the courtyard, and was urged to follow by the Taoist with his whisk.

There were two carriages parked outside the door, one of which was very luxurious, and Yaoguang boarded the luxurious carriage. Xu Cong knew it early in the morning, and boarded the ordinary carriage without waiting for the Taoist priest to urge him again.

It's just that when he opened the curtain of the car and saw the person sitting inside, his movements suddenly froze for a moment.

The wheels of the carriage that Yaoguang and the Taoist were riding on began to roll. Xu Congyi lowered his eyes, climbed into the carriage, and found a place farthest from Nie Yan.His entire back was tightly pressed against the wall of the carriage, and his body swayed along with the carriage.

The carriage was driving fast on the street, Xu Cong clenched his hands tightly.

"My clothes... Did you take it?" Xu Cong suddenly raised his head, looking directly at Nie Yan.
