When the devil

Chapter 161 Shallow Shadow

Gu Yuan said that she wanted to let Wei Ling in, so she took off the hat from the groom's head and put it on Wei Ling's head. By the way, she took out a fake beard and stuck it on Wei Ling's face. A tattered coat was found in the carriage, and Wei Ling put it on, and added a cloth bag containing Xia Zhou, and carried it on his back, turning a beautiful woman into a handsome local man.

"You asked me to pretend to be your attendant." Wei Ling smelled the dirty smell on the gown, and there was unavoidable distaste in her eyes: "This dress is too crude."

He chose the most euphemistic way to express his discomfort. It doesn’t matter if it’s simple or not, the key is that it smells musty, and he doesn’t know where Gu Yuan got such unseemly clothes. Wei Ling even wondered if the clothes were Toxic.

Gu Yuan helped him tidy up his clothes: "It's not surprising, it's not surprising, this king never brings his attendants, and when he goes up the mountain, he will say that you are a coachman, and he was taken up by the way after having a good chat with this king."

Xia Zhou felt that Gu Yuan was cheap, so he stretched out his paw from the bag to scratch Gu Yuan's hand.

Wei Ling pressed Xia Zhou's paw back: "On the day of worshiping the ancestors, will you be crazy if you bring people up casually?"

After saying this, he seemed to notice something unusual from the corner of his eyes, and when he looked back, it was actually the condensed enchantment in the air that was flowing strangely.

Gu Yuan said: "What are you afraid of, there are not so many rules."

He said it so confidently, as if any big event could rest on his shoulders.

Wei Ling didn't understand Gu Xiao, and just thought about the habits of being an "emperor" according to common sense. After hearing Gu Yuan's words, he stopped talking, but patted the cloth bag hanging on his shoulder sideways, and said to Xia Zhou Said: "You can be honest."

"However, Xiamao is more troublesome." Gu Yuan said in a low voice, followed Wei Ling's example, and also poked the bag: "People from the Taili Court are guarding it, and there is a big monster hidden inside, so they will definitely be able to detect it."

Xia Zhou poked out half of his head from the gap: "Unless the other party is also at the level of the Four Great Beasts, I won't be able to detect it. I turned into a cat not just to be good to Ah Ling, but also to cover up my demon nature."

It's rare that the cat said something human, but Wei Ling didn't listen carefully. For some reason, he could feel the fluctuation of the barrier on the mountain. During the time he spoke just now, the direction of the barrier changed several times.It wasn't until Gu Yuan said back to Xia Zhou: "You are so clever." He turned his gaze from a distance.

"Let's go up quickly." Wei Ling said, "Going up the mountain is different."

The two got out of the carriage and walked the rest of the way. Gu Yuan reacted quickly. On the way, she asked Wei Ling if she noticed something wrong with the Dao enchantment. Wei Ling didn't hide it from him, and nodded to admit his guess.

Gu Yuan laughed, walked away from the cloth bag, and whispered to Wei Ling: "This enchantment was set up by Chen Xiao, and no one can touch it except him. Xiao Ling, tell me honestly, is it true that your immortality can be restored?" Isn't it what Fengyue Tianshi did?"

"He divided my mana in half." After Wei Ling finished speaking, he happened to see a few magic attendants walking towards him. look like.

"See King You."

The legal attendants didn't ask much, but simply saluted.

The two continued to walk forward, and in front of them was the cross bridge leading to the mountain road. Yu Wanfeng sat there, listening to the sound of the surrounding priests kneeling down to perform the salute, he slowly got up and walked this way.

"My lord, it's windy and snowy on this mountain, you have to hurry up, if you wait until it's dark, the mountain road will be difficult to walk." Yu Wanfeng arched his hands and bowed his body, omitting greetings from his mouth, he could only blame him for his deep facial features, narrow eyes and narrow nose Long, as long as there is a smile on his face, he must have a strange and sinister look.

Gu Yuan said: "Don't worry, I have flexible legs and feet, and there will be Dean Lao at the foot of the mountain to watch over me, don't let any moths in."

He is the exact opposite of Yu Wanfeng, with a handsome face, even if he smiles in a sly way, he can still smile with that seductive aura.

Yu Wanfeng said: "Young Lord, don't worry, I will guard it personally, not even a mosquito can get in."

Gu Yuan chuckled: "Where do mosquitoes come from in winter, please take it easy, Dean."

The two didn't say a few words, and Yu Wanfeng stepped out of the way. He didn't look at Wei Ling from the beginning to the end, and he didn't look at the cloth bag on Wei Ling's body. Before leaving, Gu Yuan walked in front, and Wei Ling was slightly slower than him. After a while, Yu Wanfeng really saw this opportunity, and walked around behind Wei Ling pretending to brush shoulders, and said in a low voice: "Last night, I sensed the aura of chaos, he is lurking on the mountain."

At this point, Yu Wanfeng walked away without waiting for Wei Ling's answer. Wei Ling didn't ask any more questions, and followed him for a while, then slowly retracted and continued to walk forward.

There are powerful barriers guarding the mountains, so that Taotie voluntarily guards at the foot of the mountain, and Wu Wu transforms into a cat to avoid the influence, but Chaos, one of the four fierce beasts, head-on and sneaks up the mountain?It shouldn't be.

Wei Ling met Chaos only once, but he saw the unrestrained and unrestrained blood in the eyes of that fierce beast. He was injured by Bai Lie when he was in the Demon Realm, and he came to the world by attaching himself to Bai Lie. In this way, Chaos should It is because of the damage to the demon power that it has not escaped from Bai Lie until now...

"If the barrier is not broken, even if it is chaos, it can only become a little dog with no power to restrain the chicken." Xia Zhou said to Wei Ling in the bag: "The so-called sending a dog's head from a thousand miles~"

Wei Ling understood what Xia Zhou meant. At this juncture, the forces in the Eastern Realm were worrying that they could not find powerful monsters to support the demon formations engraved in various parts of Yudu. If Chaos fell into their hands, they would become blind cats. Live dead mouse, crooked hit.

"He has been hiding on Bai Lie for so long, why did he come out at this time?" Wei Ling was thoughtful.

Gu Yuan glanced at them, maybe because the topic was too serious, he was a little amused.But when he smiled, the silent emotion of "Look at what my little cutie has to say" leaked from his brows and eyes.

Wei Ling knew that Gu Yuan was a scheming person, not simple, but he would always ignore this point when getting along with him on weekdays. Now that he was stabbed by Gu Yuan's smile, he thought it was his lack of heart, so he could only talk out of words. The principle that must be lost, no longer talk about your own thoughts in detail.

Xia Zhou followed Wei Ling's words and continued: "He can't stand provocations, so he picks one."

If there is a chance, Xia Zhou really wants to tell Wei Ling about the stupid things that Chaos has done before. Regardless of whether Wei Ling wants to hear it or not, at least it will let him realize that as one of the four fierce beasts, Wu Wu's intelligence is definitely comparable to that of Wei Ling. The chaos is tens of millions of miles away.

But after thinking about it, Chaos is still a monster with the same reputation as himself, and it is meaningless to slander him in the world. Xia Zhou thought for a while, and based on his own understanding of Chaos, he continued to deduce: "Chaos will be exposed, it should be He Bai. What happened between Lie, Gu Yuan, didn't you claim that you have a good relationship with Bai Lie? Why don't you ask him about it?"

"Dabai is usually dull-headed, but being stubborn is fatal." Gu Yuan rubbed the center of her brows and stopped in front of the steps: "He always takes soft things but not hard ones, whether it's chaos or someone who wants to take advantage of the fire, is it a little boy?" Look at him."

Wei Ling couldn't see what Gu Yuan meant, and asked, "My lord thinks that chaos will not harm Bai Lie?"

"On the contrary, it is easy for a bad person to pretend to be a good person, but it is difficult for a good person to pretend to be a bad person, especially a kind and honest person with superior skills. If I were a bad person, I would definitely use them to avoid the possibility of confronting him head-on. , slowly grinding away his sharp thorns."

The cold wind swept the snow up the mountain from the foot of the mountain. Gu Yuan stood against the wind, blowing his graceful cloak flying.

"There are strategies in the game, whether it's against Dabai, or..."

Before he finished speaking, the leisurely smile dimmed quickly, and Wei Ling noticed that Gu Yuan was looking at her, with that kind of scrutinizing and helpless look.

"Xiao Ling, you were kind enough to save me last time, why don't you give me a chance this time and let me help you."

Luoxue was reflected in his eyes, and when he looked at Wei Ling, he had an inexplicable illusion of coercion.

Wei Ling was stunned for a moment, then said, "When did I save you?"

Gu Yuan brushed away the snow from her hair: "Isn't it Xiaoling, you rushed into the sea of ​​flames to save the beauty that day, and you forgot it so quickly?"

Hero saves...beauty?

Wei Ling naturally knew that Gu Yuan was referring to the fire in Baihualou, but when Wei Ling arrived that day, Gu Yuan was out of danger and all the assassins were dead. The truth of the fire has not been revealed yet, but at least one thing is certain— —In Wei Ling’s view, Gu Yuan is by no means someone who would be helplessly burned to death in a sea of ​​flames.

Therefore, Gu Yuan's words just now obviously have other meanings.

How Gu Yuan escaped from the sea of ​​fire is not important, what is important is that he needs a "reasonable" person who can "save him".

And that person is Wei Ling.

Well, a game has its own game.

Gu Yuan turned around and walked up the steps: "This king has always liked people who are willing to gamble and admit defeat. You lost to me in Jinchuan, and I told you to save my life, and you saved it too. , we are even."

"If I remember correctly, the lord's bet said that I will protect you when Gu Xuancheng makes a move." Wei Ling stepped on the steps, the cold wind came oncoming, and the beard on his face was not sticking. Steady, blow a few more times, and the beard flew away powerlessly.

"It's slightly different. I don't care about trifles, so you don't have to be polite." Gu Yuan squinted her eyes and smiled, with a very tender smile: "However, I overestimated it at the time. Now that I think about it, even if there is such a day, I won't be able to offend others. Come to guarantee."

He said this lightly, but it made Wei Ling feel a sense of loss, so neither of the two continued to talk, and only the snow and the whistling wind remained in their ears.

When Gu Yuan took Wei Ling to the mausoleum, the sky was almost dark.

The mausoleum is lit with fire, shining a warm light that is different from the world in the heavy snow.The Snow Wolf Army was stationed outside the Mausoleum Temple, and no one except the royal family was allowed to enter. The person stationed at the main entrance was Bai Lie, who caught sight of Wei Ling brought by Gu Yuan at a glance.

Because the beard was blown off, Wei Ling changed a dirty scarf to cover his face, but this made him look even more suspicious. Gu Yuan asked Wei Ling to wait under the big tree far away from the mausoleum temple. He and Bai Lie said a few words, then entered the mausoleum alone.

I don't know what Gu Yuan said. Not only did Bai Lie not embarrass Wei Ling, he also asked the soldiers of the Snow Wolf Army to light the open space in front of Wei Ling. At night, it's freezing cold here, so I can only make do with it.

Wei Ling nodded silently. He glanced at the enchantment around the Mausoleum Temple. The weird light patterns were still in a mess. The surrounding area was full of snow wolf troops. It would be even more difficult to investigate the famous hall. All he could do was Waiting for the change, he simply pulled the cloth bag and hugged it in his arms. The cat inside was soft and hot, and it was very comfortable to hold.

Time passed slowly, and there was no movement in the mausoleum temple. The soldiers of the Snow Wolf Army brought over jackets for Wei Ling to wear, and at the same time said sympathetically, "King You is really kind, little brother, you can't eat it." Take it easy, you have to be strong and live on."

"... "

Wei Ling became more and more curious about what kind of lie King You had told.

"A Ling, let me tell you a secret, I don't really like being a cat." When the Snow Wolf soldiers retreated, Xia Zhou's deep voice came from the bag.

What a secret.

"Really? I didn't see it." Wei Ling put the jacket on her body, and it smelled of men's sweat, mixed with the sour smell of the coat on her body, not to mention how pungent it was.

Xia Zhou murmured: "When I transform into a cat, my demon power will be severely hindered. I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you myself."

Hey, this little broken cat, why is he suddenly talking sarcasticly?

Wei Ling leaned a little closer to the fire, and the snow was blowing heavily, and she was dazzled by the flames.

The kitten moved, and this time it changed its tail and came out of the cloth bag, and gently scratched Wei Ling's palm: "You died once in front of me, you forgot, but I can't forget it."

What he was talking about was the nightmare in Cangming Temple, in which Weiling bound Xiazhou by giving him a name, but was brutally killed by the immortals who came after him.

But all of that was premeditated by Wei Ling, he didn't want to live, but wanted to use his own death to completely seal Wu Wu.

If he could succeed in that seal, there would not be a person and a cat embracing each other to keep warm in a snowy day like today.

Wei Ling closed her eyes and lowered her voice: "How could I forget, but I was plotting against you, you are a big monster, I worked so hard to seal you, you should hate me."

The cat's tail got into his fingers, as if teasing him.

"Yeah, you made me miserable. I have never tried to be taken away by others in my life."

Xia Zhou was speaking from his heart, and felt a little funny after he said it, he turned around in the cloth bag again, hid his tail behind, pushed his head out, squinted his eyes and pressed against Wei Ling's hand.

Wei Ling stroked his soft fur, but didn't respond in a hurry. He stared at the burning fire in a daze. After a while, he let go of his hand and said softly, "Xia Zhou, don't really hate me."

The cat's ears twitched, he was deceived several times by Wei Ling's sudden tenderness, this time he was clever, and he didn't make a sound.

"I think..." Wei Ling looked down at him, "I actually... like you a lot."

He finally uttered the words that had been buried deep in his heart and he was unwilling to face.

In fact, he already knew in his heart that he was too dependent on Xia Zhou and could no longer stop thinking about it. It's just that the turmoil in the world is still unsettled, so why would he bother to talk about love...

Now, Xia Zhou came to the world with him and accepted the so-called "sacrifice", and he couldn't draw a clear line with him. consolation.

The cat in his arms jerked violently, bumping its head against Wei Ling's chin.

"Really?" Xia Zhou's eyes were round, and the firelight was reflected in them, like a starry sky.

"Really." Wei Ling looked at him, not hiding or running away, and responded softly.

"Damn it." Xia Zhou cursed secretly, stepped on Wei Ling's knee with his fleshy palm, and stood up higher: "A Ling, why did you pick this time, I'm a cat, I'm a cat! I want to kiss right now You, want to have sex with you, love, what the fuck should I do?"

Wei Ling pressed his forehead and pushed him back into the cloth bag: "Go back and do it."

Xia Zhou didn't realize until now that no matter what thoughts Wei Ling had, his demeanor was indifferent, as if the stormy waves couldn't make a sound on his face.In the past, Xia Zhou thought it was Wei Ling's ruthlessness, but the sentence "I like you" and "go back to do it" just now, Xia Zhou knew the meaning behind it better than anyone else.

The matter of love can be said in passing by Wei Ling's mouth, maybe it is really that Wei Ling doesn't know what passion is in her mind.

The only time he lost control of his emotions should be when he quarreled with him in Yaoyu.

The more Xia Zhou thought about it, the more he felt that it was not a good deal. Wei Ling was fooling the cat again. He would not be so easy to be fooled. I listen, say you like me."

Wei Ling lowered her head, leaned against the cat's ears, and said three words slowly and softly.

Xia Zhou froze, thinking that he had heard wrongly, and Wei Ling, who was above him, slightly bent his brows, like a bright moon in sparse clouds, so charming that it made people tremble.

He loves this face to death, no matter how you look at it, he loves it to death.The little cat couldn't hold back anymore, and rushed to grab Wei Ling's arm. Wei Ling's expression remained unchanged, but he took the opportunity to pull up the bag and put Xia Zhou upright.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Wei Ling put the cloth bag back into his arms, and looked up again, only to see the young general in silver armor standing in front of the flames, his handsome features were strange.

"Immortal Venerable."

Bai Lie thrust his silver spear into the snow and stood in front of Wei Ling.

Looking at Bai Lie's expression, Wei Ling thought that he might have already guessed his identity. Wei Ling felt that Bai Lie had a natural animal nature, like a wolf living in the night forest, with sharp eyes and amazing intuition. Every little sign of trouble has an amazing perception.

But Bai Lie is a man with a clear mind and no scheming. His purpose is nothing more than to ensure the safety of this trip. Therefore, as long as his bottom line is not violated, Wei Ling has room for turnover.

"I came to be King You's guard. It is not malicious to conceal the general, so please don't blame him."

Bai Lie remained silent, he picked up the silver gun again, and poked the cloth bag in Wei Ling's arms with the end of the gun barrel.

Wei Ling: "This is clothes."

Xia Zhou was very obedient and kept silent inside.Bai Lie was expressionless, too lazy to beat around the bush: "You brought the beast to Zongyuan Mountain, are you crazy or is he crazy?"

There is no way, although General Bai does not understand the magic of immortality, he has a unique sense of smell for the target, and the monster still cannot hide in front of him.

Wei Ling blinked innocently, choosing what was good: "He's here to protect me."

"There is an enchantment here." Bai Lie said, "Do you think you are walking a cat?"

Hearing this sentence, Xia Zhou felt that he was underestimated, so he couldn't bear it anymore, poked his head out, bared his fangs at Bai Lie, and yelled ferociously: "Meow!"

It really turned into a cat.

Bai Lie seemed to have found approval from the cat's posture, he no longer entangled Xia Zhou, but squatted down, put the silver gun sideways into the snow, turned his gaze to the fire, and stretched out his hand to keep warm.

Wei Ling guessed that he didn't just come here to keep warm. After thinking about it, he decided to get straight to the point: "On the way up the mountain, I heard...about chaos."

Bai Lie was also planning to say this: "Chaos came to the world with me. He suddenly appeared last night and wanted to attack His Highness the Crown Prince, but failed and was sealed by His Highness instead." After finishing speaking, he paused briefly, and said: "This I don't know what to do, so I will tell Xianzun first."

After saying the words, Bai Lie actually breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. This incident made him uncomfortable, and he was even at a loss. He heard about the East Territory and the possible dangers caused by the Yaodan during his days in the Demon Realm.He can trust Wei Ling, and the 梼杌 beside Wei Ling is one of the four beasts like Chaos, maybe Wei Ling knows better how to weigh this matter.

But from another angle, Bai Lie felt that this was something he screwed up, that it was his negligence that brought such a dangerous evil spirit into the world.He is the one who can't get used to crooked ways, and he is also the one who is played around by evil spirits.

Somewhere, he had a premonition that even though Chaos was taken away by the prince, sooner or later he should solve this matter himself.

Wei Ling was not too surprised after hearing this, he asked, "Have you informed Your Majesty about this?"

"No…"

"What are the general's plans?"

Bai Lie said: "If Chaos harms the world, I can kill it any number of times."

His voice was flat, and he stated a well-known fact, but Wei Ling heard that the first half of Bai Lie's words lacked confidence, maybe he still understood in his heart that the real enemy was not Chaos.

"If it's not a monster that harms the world, wouldn't it be very annoying to say so?" Xia Zhou interrupted suddenly, with a clear voice, thankful that he is like a cat at the moment, if it was a human, Wei Ling could almost imagine him looking at it. Lively and not too serious, he laughed: "In the mausoleum, which ones do you dare to kill, and which ones do you not dare to kill, why don't you vent your breath first?"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard Bai Lie chuckle.It was a very short and innocent smile, as if Xia Zhou had told a bragging joke just now, which made him laugh.

"The Bai family has been His Majesty's sword for generations." Bai Lie's words were gentle and powerful: "There is no dare or dare."
