Chapter 65 Shadow Warrior
As if following the light, Ouyang Xiao Leng passed through the long and narrow tunnel and opened his eyes in the fragrance of plum blossoms. The figure sitting by the bed who kept nodding his head because of fatigue was the human girl he was familiar with, and his left hand was also warmly clenched by the man. He felt that perhaps because it was a hand connected to the heart that warmth overflowed from the atrium.
Xia Qiu has been guarding Ouyang Xiao Leng in a coma, quietly looking at his quiet face. His hands are so cold that she dares not take her eyes off his face for a moment. Only the faint trembling at the end of his nose between his breath can reassure her. She didn't know when she began to doze off. After reacting, she suddenly opened her eyes, and a pair of gray-blue eyes were looking at her.
That time, the poison of the dead water of Rasha's mother in Xia Qiu's body was Ouyang Xiao Leng who woke her up by the bed, but this time she waited for him. The same anxious expectation is just for a mutual emotion. This time, life and death is a hardship and a test.
"Are you awake?" Xia Qiu looked at Ouyang Xiao Leng's beautiful cheeks and was even reluctant to breathe and wink.
"Hmm."
Ouyang Xiao Leng just couldn't bear to wake up Xia Qiu. He was weak and sat in a posture for a long time. His body was a little stiff. He tilted his head slightly and let out a sigh.
"Does it still hurt?" Xia Qiu's eyes were full of tears, and she asked sadly.
"It doesn't hurt!"
In fact, although he had taken a pain-re relieving potion, the stab in his chest by Yecha still made him feel faint pain when talking and breathing, but looking at Xia Qiu, whose eyes were red and swollen, how could he have the heart to say it to make her more worried?
"You have to tell Hongye and Lord Yong that you are awake! In order to save you, Hongye keeps losing his demonic power to you to heal. As soon as you get out of danger, he is tired, and now he doesn't know what to do. Xia Qiu sobbed and said.
Her words made Ouyang Xiao Leng's heart tight. If it hadn't been for his negligence, he would not have let Yecha's sneak attack, let alone cause many things. Even a little demonic power takes a long time to obtain. It is not a last resort. No one will use their own demonic power to heal others. He knew the heaviness of his injury, and it must have consumed a lot of demonic power of Ouyang Hongye to pull him back from the line of life and death.
He nodded and said to her, "Go! I'll take a break!"
It was already twilight outside. When Xia Qiu walked outside Ouyang Yong's room, a solemn breath came out of the room. There was no usual laughter inside. The voices of Ouyang Yong and Ouyang Hongye were so low.
"I just went to see Wangyue. He looks fine. Although it has calmed down the emotions of those princes for the time being, it is hard to guarantee that they will not change their minds!" Ouyang Hongye frowned on his pale face, but it was a pity that he had a beautiful face.
"Alas!"
Ouyang Yong's sigh revealed fatigue and worry. The successful solution to the divine pillar crisis seems to have only happened yesterday, and now we have to face such a difficult problem.
"I didn't expect that Qingyun would use such a means to let Yecha sneak into the Chenji Palace to take Xiao Leng's life, and successfully transfer the crime to Wangyue!" The more Ouyang Hongye thought about it, the more angry he became, and his clenched fists burst out.
"Fortune, Xiao Leng Jiren escaped a disaster, otherwise..." Ouyang Yong learned that Ouyang Xiao Leng's heart palpitations at the eve of his life was one of the few in thousands of years.
Xia Qiu was still hesitating outside the door whether to go in or not, but he heard the call of Ouyang Hongye: "Xiaqiu, are you outside the door? Come on in!"
"Xiao Leng has woken up. Although he is still a little weak, I want to tell you as soon as possible!" Xia Qiu bypassed the plum blossom screen and walked into the house and said.
"Great! I can rest assured, too!" Ouyang Hongye's eyebrows finally relaxed a little and said happily.
"Yes, yes, there is finally good news!" Ouyang Yong couldn't help nodding his head and responding.
"What's the matter?" Xia Qiu asked tentatively.
"The princes pointed the spearhead of Xiao Leng's assassination to Wangyue, and insisted that he was in cooperation with Yecha. Under pressure, they had to follow their wishes and temporarily escort Wangyue to the dungeon!"
Xia Qiu heard Ouyang Hongye's words and sighed in astonishment: "How could this happen?!"
Ouyang Hongye comforted her and said, "Anyway, Wangyue is safe for the time being. It's just a little bitter, so don't worry about him!"
Ouyang Yong changed the topic and asked, "Are we going to see Xiao Leng now, or will it be later?"
Ouyang Hongye pondered for a moment and said, "A little later!" Xia Qiu, you are also tired. I'll ask the thorns to send you back! You can come directly to Fuxing Hall early tomorrow morning. I will explain it to Mu Ya at the school.
Xia Qiu nodded and said, "Xiao Leng is still resting, so I won't say goodbye to him!" If he wakes up to me, say I'll come back tomorrow morning!"
Thorns still escorted Xia Qiu home as a little cardinal. In a blink of an eye, he left home for a day and another night. Since Ouyang Xiao Leng hypnotized her grandparents with the magic method before, they will no longer worry about her not returning home at night. If her father occasionally asks on the phone, they will make a round for her. At first, she felt guilty about it, but later she gradually felt that it could make them happy and save the pain of explaining to them. At present, it was the most appropriate way.
She fell into her **, tired but difficult to sleep. Although the days of contact with Wangyue were not long, she fully understood his character. The pain of skin and flesh may not be a big deal to him, but being held unjustly with his nature will definitely make him physically and mentally frustrated.
What made her entangled was the powerful Qingyun, and she understood more and more why everyone was afraid of him. As soon as Ouyang Xiao Leng ascended the throne, such a thing happened, which made her have to worry about the vast road ahead. She always felt that Qingyun's invisible claws were waiting for the opportunity to attack them not far away. Outside, the north wind slapped the window. She forced herself to close her eyes and stop thinking about these problems for the time being. Tomorrow morning, she will go to Wangcheng.
Ouyang Hongye lay on the bedside and gently called Ouyang Xiao Leng's name: "Hey, Xiao Leng!"
After Xia Qiu left, Ouyang Xiao Leng unconsciously fell asleep and woke up at night. He was woken up by Ouyang Hongye and sat up from **. He moved too big and tore the wound on his chest in a daze. He couldn't help shouting, "Ah!"
"Be careful!" Ouyang Hongye reminded reproachfully.
"Did you catch the night fork?" Ouyang Xiao Leng is most concerned about this problem at this moment.
"No, Wangyue tried her best to catch him, but still failed to catch him back, and Wang Yue was imprisoned!" Ouyang Hongye shook his head and answered.
"What?"
Ouyang Hongye talked about the context of the dragon in the future, and asked Ouyang Xiao Leng, who had faced the night fork, if he could think of any clues.
"I have an intuition that he simply came for the crown of the demon king, because the position he attacked me was exactly where the crown of the demon king was in my body!" Ouyang thought for a moment.
"The crown of the demon king?! It seems that he is still obsessed with using the evil forces in Blackfire Purgatory!"
"Or in order to release the people locked up in the Black Fire Purgatory? Xia Qiu once mentioned to me that when she was on Changsheng Island, the Feather Crane Fairy told her that Qingyun had been to Xianhequan Township a long time ago and tried to let the Feathererer Fairy communicate with someone in the Black Fire Purgatory with the skill of soul separation.
Ouyang Xiao Leng's words reminded Ouyang Hongye. He said excitedly, "Then everything is more reasonable!" Why don't we secretly let Wangyue go and say that he escaped by himself, and let him find a way to get in touch with Sanmu and find clues about this matter everywhere in the demon world!"
"I agree! If you find valuable information, you can also clear his name! Moreover, those princes have always been suspicious. Seeing the wind steering, it is likely that there will be people who have defected to Qingyun to instigate them. Maybe they will soon ask to deal with Wangyue, or let him leave the royal city as soon as possible, so as not to have many dreams at night!"
"Okay, I'll do it right away!" After saying that, Ouyang Hongye walked out.
Late at night, a man in a black cloak appeared in the dungeon of Wangcheng. The man covered his face and couldn't see who it was. Since Yesha escaped, the dungeon has strengthened its guards, and this person can still enter dressed like this, which has aroused the suspicion of Wangyue.
The man in black obviously deliberately concealed his demonic spirit, so that others could not judge his identity by breath. He went straight to the cell where Wangyue was imprisoned. With a touch of a hand from his cloak, the seal on the cell door fell down, and the lock was automatically opened again.
Wang Yue thought if it was the person sent by Qingyun to kill him, so she stood up and asked, "Who are you?"
The man in black who walked into the cell put his hand on his lips, motioned him not to make a sound, and then put his hand on his head a little. Normally, Wangyue would definitely want to resist such a psychedelic technique, but I don't know why he was defenseless in front of this person, and only felt that he was soft all over and lost consciousness.
Wang Yue felt that someone patted her face a few times, and subconsciously prepared to resist, so she woke up. In front of him was no one else, but Ouyang Hongye. The two of them were in a dilapidated room.
He looked up and asked Ouyang Hongye, "Where is this?"
Ouyang Hongye answered him with a smile: "Outside the city. Don't worry, it's safe here!"
"Shouldn't I be in the dungeon?" The moon is still a little unbelievable.
"In order to avoid someone in the royal city instigating those princes to change their minds one day, they must kill you. I have discussed with Xiao Leng, and I still want you to leave there temporarily!"
Wang Yue asked worriedly, "Won't anyone suspect that you let me go?"
An important reason why he is willing to bear the blame is the innocence of Ouyang Hongye. If the princes are suspicious of Ouyang Hongye because of his release, his efforts will not be abandoned.
"This is going to wrong you! You will also be temporarily regarded as a traitor who turns to Qingyun and assists Yecha, and you can't go back to the royal city for a while! Only in this way can everyone believe that the same person who released Yecha from the dungeon helped you leave!"
After hearing Ouyang Hongye's words, Wangyue was a little difficult to accept and shouted, "Then I might as well be in prison!"
"Listen to me! Xiao Leng recalled that Yecha was going to grab the crown of the demon king in his body at that time, and according to our analysis, his purpose was probably not to simply use the power in the Blackfire Purgatory, but to save someone in the Blackfire Purgatory!"
"Oh?" Wang Yue interrupted Ouyang Hongye's words.
"It is precisely that the enemy has always been so clear that we have repeatedly been tricked by Qingyun. So although you are aggrieved, you must become a shadow warrior for Xiao Leng and us at this moment, hiding in the darkness, and do your best to destroy the conspiracy of Qingyun while collecting intelligence! I know how unfair this is to you, but..." Ouyang Hongye stopped talking.
Wang Yue said firmly, "Well, I understand! If so, leave it to me! No matter what kind of warrior he is, as long as you still trust me, as long as your red leaves still regard me as my brother, a sea of swords and fire, I look forward to the moon!"
