Half-dead paulownia

Listening to the ghost king's warning words, Ling Su couldn't help but have a strange expression on his face, "What do you mean?"

The ghost king looked at Ling Su with mysterious eyes, and whispered ghostly: "Don't you really know how important tomorrow is to us?"

Ling Su raised his head in doubt, his eyes full of curiosity, "Tomorrow?" He seemed to be lost in thought, and suddenly raised his voice and said loudly: "Venus transiting the sun is coming soon, so tomorrow should be the sky change before it comes, it is Xingyue The day of eating together."

The ghost king looked up and laughed loudly, "It seems that he is not deceived, at least he can calculate such an important date. I thought that Ling Su had already forgotten all the tasks on him." Finally sat down again On the throne, "the eclipse of the sun and the moon will happen at noon tomorrow. Everything was planned to be perfect, but it was messed up by Anling Yuhao. Fortunately, Xiao Jinmo came to your place by accident. Come down and see what you plan to do.”

Ling Su's expression instantly became calm. Why did he hide for so many years?Finally, you are about to achieve your goal, and now you want to give up?No, absolutely not, Ling Han needs my help, and even in the future, I have the responsibility to pave the way for Ling Zhuoxi, there is no guilt, I shouldn't have too many thoughts, I must cherish this opportunity, but why? Do you feel a little pain in your heart?Ling Su's mind became confused.

Looking at Ling Su who was silent for a long time, the ghost king continued: "Although we do not belong to the same path, we have a common enemy, that is the capital of Anling, as long as we join hands to obtain the blood spirit, the hard work you have put in these years It will not be wasted in vain, then the world will not be the capital of the Huanzhao Kingdom? Think about why Ling Han has become like this, why is he depressed all day long? Who caused your father and son to not recognize each other, but to live incognito?"

"Ghost King, I don't need you to say that, of course I know, otherwise I won't stick to it until now. Although it is impossible for us to cooperate forever, but for the matter of the blood spirit, I hold the spirit of the blood spirit in my hand, and you Then we know how to extract blood spirits, so we have no choice." Ling Su understood the purpose of the ghost king's provocative words at the moment, but even if he didn't say these things, he would still unite with the ghost king, at least not yet become an enemy, but They understand each other very well, and sooner or later they will meet each other.

"Okay, how about us tomorrow??" The ghost king signaled Ling Su to step forward and started a well-designed conspiracy.

(Anling Imperial City, Qianyang Palace)

Anling Yuhao stared at Ling Zining in front of him without moving, as if he was a stranger he hadn't seen for a long time, but his expression was no longer cold.

"Your majesty, your eyes are too hot." Ling Zining said in a shy tone. "Give me some ???"

"Aren't you afraid to face it?" Anling Yuhao asked directly: "Ning'er, why did you appear in the ghost gate?"

Ling Zining recalled: "Someone sent a letter to me, saying that as long as I went to the ghost gate in person, Xiao Jinmo would be released, so I was anxious for a while, fearing that in the future, the ministers of the court would catch me and say that we deliberately released the rebels. , so I went to the gate of hell alone, hoping to save him and bring him back to the palace, and ask the emperor to make atonement." After saying that, he wanted to kneel down and make atonement.

Anling Yuhao stopped Ling Zining, "How can you be blamed? For the sake of the country, it's rare for you to have such a heart, but now it seems that you may have been used by someone."

"Are you referring to the person pretending to be Qinghong?" Although Ling Zining knew in his heart that no one would let him go to the ghost gate, it was just his own willful decision to take Qinghong to wait and see, but he did not expect to meet Later things. "Who do you think he is?"

Anling Yuhao looked at the scenery in front of him, "He is someone the King of Ghosts would never have dreamed of." It turned out to be a confident tone.

"Then what he said??" Ling Zining still didn't seem to completely let go of the conversation in the secret room. Although he knew that there was no evidence for the words, and it was in such a critical situation, why did he still care so much, even in such a critical situation? I can't get rid of it in my mind.

"Your Majesty!" Liu Meng almost trotted into the room and shouted out of breath.

"Is there something important?" Anling Yuhao couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw Liu Meng's panicked appearance.

I saw Liu Meng raised his head, looked at Ling Zining, hesitated to speak.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is a bit tired, so I will leave first." Ling Zining said in a gentle tone, she really knew how to read words, and slowly left the room after speaking.

"Your Majesty, the news just came that the Queen Mengli of Huanzhao Kingdom will release Xiao Jinmo's prison in person tomorrow." Liu Meng said in a mysterious tone.

"Is this the thing? Everyone of them should be eager to open that cage, but what's so strange about it? No one can solve the blood-drinking crystal, and they are just wasting their efforts." An Ling Yu Hao had an indifferent expression.

"It stands to reason that there is nothing strange about it, but has the emperor heard of a saying? Because the blood-drinking crystal was forged by the ancestors of the ghost gate, it is rumored that some of the disciples of the ghost gate have mastered other methods .” Liu Meng seemed to have a very understanding tone.

"Isn't this better? Xiao Jinmo can be saved, they just want to try." An Ling Yuhao really didn't feel anything wrong.

Liu Meng looked around again, and after confirming that there was no one there, he said cautiously: "It is said that I chose the time on purpose, it will be noon tomorrow, but it seems to be tomorrow???"

"Sun and moon eclipse!" Anling Yuhao's eyes suddenly became a little complicated, "It is said that before any major astrological changes, there will always be some strange phenomena that gather the essence of heaven and earth, and this eclipse of the sun and the moon should be In order to welcome Venus transiting the sun." Suddenly remembered the memorial presented by the scholar-bureaucrats in the court a few days ago, saying that it is a night-time stargazing, and there will be strange events that will affect the world in recent days, but it is not clear whether it is a blessing or a curse. .

"Why is it tomorrow? I think there is something strange about it." Liu Meng also seemed to be very concerned about Xiao Jinmo's matter, and he was able to analyze some things, "And the person you asked me to investigate, It is exactly as the emperor thought."

Anling Yuhao looked into the distance with sharp eyes, "Sure enough, Xiao Su is Ling Su, it seems that the truth of the matter is about to be revealed."

"I really don't know what will happen to Xiao Jinmo if he knows the truth." Liu Meng whispered with some heartache, and became more and more worried about Xiao Jinmo. It seemed that nothing happened to him like that Simple.

"Tomorrow at noon!" Anling Yuhao repeated those four words again, then turned around and strode away with an anxious expression.

(Huanzhao Kingdom)

"Mengli, is tomorrow really okay?" Ling Han, who was sitting in the hall, finally had a concerned tone, after all, the two had been together for 20 years.

Mengli stared at her eyes and smiled, still smiling like a flower, she couldn't help but sighed softly, "Xiao Jinmo is a very good kid, isn't he? I don't know why, but I have an inexplicable feeling of intimacy with him. Maybe the world is so delicate. In addition to that man, the man who is not dyed, he gave me a second dream, even a little more charming."

Ling Han naturally knew who Mengli was referring to. From the first time he saw Xiao Jinmo, he was in a trance for a moment. It seemed that there was always a shadow, but it was a little more intriguing. This is Why is it that he has touched the bottom line many times, and even injured his beloved Ning'er several times, but he still has no heart, this is truly powerless, every moment facing Xiao Jinmo, he feels burdened too much.

"Is there really no danger?" Ling Han was still a little worried, but he could also see that Meng Li's mind had been made up.

"Ling Su said, he will help me." Mengli said slowly.

After Ling Su returned to Huanzhao Kingdom from the ghost gate, he finally decided to look for Mengli. He said that he was willing to help, because he was the son he raised since he was a child, so it was impossible to abandon him. The reason why Mengli agreed with Ling Su Su's help is because he is willing to keep the secret for her, that is, the blood-drinking crystal can indeed be cracked, but the person who cracks it will be in danger at any time, and there must be someone who can assist him before it is completed.

Indeed, the moment Mengli decided to save Xiao Jinmo, she had no intention of continuing to live. Every day seemed to be like a year. Even if she kept her promise, the current Ling Han should not need anyone's care, let alone take care of her. What's more, I have already seen through everything, time has passed for too long, every immature heart has already gone through vicissitudes, and it has been honed to be invincible.

She no longer has any concerns, even when she heard that her son was no longer alive, the only remaining nostalgia no longer exists, but just at such a moment, she is more willing to sacrifice herself once, also for a man who is similar to him, Going around, dependent on origin and extinction, after all, still can't escape his shadow.

It's just that Mengli doesn't know that the reason why Ling Su keeps everything secret for her is because of the blood spirit's blood guide, and this precious blood guide is actually the blood from the mother's body. Powerful, evoking true magic.

The reason why the Ghost King made concessions to the mask, that is, Ling Su, was that only he knew where the blood spirit's blood guide was, that is, who was Xiao Jinmo's biological mother, despite years of searching for people in secret. They searched, but there was no result in the end. No one thought that this majestic Mengli was the person they were looking for.

"Mengli, in fact, after you finish this matter, if you want to leave, I will not stop you. In fact, I know that you have not been happy these years." Can it be done?

Mengli looked at Ling Han, feeling like she hadn't looked at the man in front of her so carefully for a long time, with deep eyes and handsome face, but since Anling Xuantian left, this man named Ling Han rarely showed his eyes. smile.

"We all let our minds fetter for too long because of one person. It's time to let go. Don't blame anyone, including yourself." Mengli said softly with meaningful meaning, then turned and left.

(Anling Imperial City)

"Queen, I'm Hao'er." An Ling Yu Hao knocked on the door of An Ruo Buddha Hall.

There was no answer from inside the door, just a 'squeak', and the door was slowly opened. An Ling Yuhao looked around cautiously, looking for An Ruo's figure.
