Chapter 66 Twisted Desire

After several reminders, Ouyang Hongye saw the moon and rode the dust on the horizon. This time, I don't know when to see you again. He did not forget to add the wine brought back from Southern Zhejiang City to the wine pot of Wangyue and sent him away. His tense nerves finally relaxed. This relaxation, the previous fatigue and weakness came at the same time. He guessed that it was probably because of his mood.

He walked to the Chenji Palace, where there were too many problems that needed his advice to solve, and if he didn't do his best to deal with the aftermath, how could he be worthy of the huge sacrifices made by his brother Wangyue.

Xia Qiu was awakened by the sound of the thorns in the form of a cardinal posture hitting the window with a beak. The night before, she slept very shallowly because of her heavy heart. On the way back to the demon king city with the thorns, she always felt that every foot was deep and shallow. The only thing that supported her was her eagerness to see Ouyang Xiao Leng. She didn't know if he had recovered a little in just one night, at least the wound was no longer so painful.

The Chenji Palace is still in chaos. The news of Wangyue's escape from the dungeon has spread. While the princes are annoyed that he has not been executed immediately, they are also worried about the mysterious man who hid in the dark and let him and Yecha go. They rushed into the front hall again and waited for the two elders, Ouyang Yong and Lion Wangcheng, to give They said one thing.

In order to avoid those people, the thorns deliberately led Xia Qiu directly from the small door on the back mountain into the Chenji Palace. The main reason was that there was a voice among them, which blamed Xia Qiu, the signator of the human blood alliance, for the recent changes in the royal city. They believed that all the crises appeared in her and the demon king fox. After the appointment, although only a small group of people thought so, Ouyang Yong and Ouyang Hongye still did not want Xia Qiu to be affected by this sound.

Considering Ouyang Xiao Leng's physical condition, this morning's conversation was held in the room in the courtyard of Yuheng Hall. He was served by a male demon servant to change the bandage and clean clothes on his chest. Although he only rested for one night, the wound on his body has basically healed. This is the healing effect brought by the demon power. After simply drinking a bowl of light porridge, I took the elixir sent by Ouyang Yong, and my body felt more relaxed.

The first to come was Ouyang Hongye. It was early in the morning after he let go of the moon. When he returned to the palace, he first came to explain the situation to Ouyang Xiao Leng.

"Is everything going well?" Ouyang Xiao, who was sitting against the head of the bed, called away the two demon servants left in the room and asked Ouyang Hongye eagerly.

"Well, don't worry! I have informed him of the location of the contact with Sanmu! He was also told to put an end to any contact with the royal city, including us!" Ouyang Hongye replied.

"That's good! Before you find the traitor in the king's city, any wind and grass may startle the snake!"

"How's the wound?"

"You see, it has basically healed!"

Ouyang Xiao Leng deliberately stretched out his arms to Ouyang Hongye, which made Ouyang Hongye's heart follow.

He hurriedly advised, "Don't let the wound crack again!"

After a while, Xia Qiu also came in. At a glance, he saw that Ouyang's little cold air sitting in ** was much better than yesterday. It was not so difficult to talk to Ouyang Hongye by the bedside, and he felt that the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Ouyang Xiaon saw her come in. Although she did not smile, there was a trace of gentleness in his eyes.

"Summer and Autumn!" Ouyang Hongye nodded and said.

Xia Qiu answered with a smile and walked to them: "Red leaf, little cold!"

"Let's wait for a while. Lord Yong should arrive soon!" Ouyang Hongye looked at the other chair by the bed and said.

"Well, just the four of us?" Xia Qiu asked.

Because every time I came to the demon world in the past, there was almost always hope for the moon. Qianqi and others were beside them, which seemed particularly deserted at this time.

"What we are going to talk about today is not easy to let too many people know, so there are only a few of us for the time being!" Ouyang Hongye also has the same mood as Xia Qiu.

At this time, Ouyang Yong walked in outside the door. In order not to attract attention, he only wore an old robe today, and he looked like he hadn't slept well all night.

"Wangyue fled from Wangcheng Yongchuan last night, and his business has come to an end. We need to start thinking about the next problem."

As soon as Ouyang Yong sat down, he brought everyone to the point. Although he did not explain how Wang Yue escaped from the dungeon of the Chenji Palace, Xia Qiu still guessed a little from the calm look of the three of them.

"What do you think of the spies who have been lurking in the royal city?" Ouyang Hongye asked.

"No clue! I have interrogated the guards guarding the dungeon one by one on the night when Yecha escaped, and they all lost their memories of that period. Ouyang Yong replied.

"What do you think of the King's Red-eared Demon Spirit?" Ouyang Xiao Leng asked thoughtfully.

"He has opposed you ascending to the throne from the beginning, and there are indeed many people in the royal city who are willing to follow him!" Ouyang Yong thought for a moment and answered.

"How about sending someone to investigate him?" Ouyang Hongye proposed.

"I've been like this for a long time!" Ouyang Yong agreed.

Xia Qiu, who was beside him, knew nothing about the red-eared demon spirit. He only heard that in the unfair trial of Wangyue, his performance was "especially outstanding".

"I agree, too! Who are you sending?" Ouyang asked coldly.

"Let's send my secret weapon! It's time to test them!"

The secret weapon in Ouyang Hongye's mouth is seven people who are good at hiding and collecting intelligence selected from the recently recruited troops. He organized them into a team for special training, waiting to deal with the current situation.

"Vit's very good!" Ouyang Yong nodded and said.

"Xiaqiu, if the moon is not here, I'm afraid your knife will be abandoned. Let me be your mentor for the time being! In addition, Xiao Leng needs to calm down these days, and things in Wangcheng are also in a mess. I think you might as well help Mu Ya sort out the books and materials in the underground database of Ouyang Ancient House if you are free? In this way, it is also convenient for you to know more about everything here.

Xia Qiu was very grateful to hear Ouyang Hongye's speech. He thought that he had so many problems to consider but was still thinking about his own affairs, so he hurriedly replied, "Well, okay!"

"I also have to find a way to calm down the emotions of Lion Wangcheng and other princes!"

"It's up to you two for this period!"

Ouyang Xiao Leng was annoyed, but he didn't show his face. However, he couldn't help at this moment. Moreover, it became difficult for him to see Xia Qiu. Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that the wound was nervously beating and hurt once. This time, the pain trembled all over his body, and he also had a brief tinnitus. The sound around seemed to be blocked from the body. Only the electric hiss and the sound of his own heart beat were heard, and the sound of the demon king's crown, which had not been heard for a long time, also appeared.

"Power, I need power... Blood, the blood of the human blood covenant!"

The twisted cry of the crown of the demon king echoed in Ouyang Xiao Leng's body, making him sweat coldly. He recalled the evening when he was six years old. He also found Xia Qiu under the control of this voice and put himself and herself in danger. Now, the sound is ringing again, probably because he is weak after serious injury and unable to provide it with the strength it needs. He must let her leave him immediately, otherwise he didn't know what he would do to her under the control of the crown of the demon king.

"I want to have a rest. Let's go!"

He just said this and lay down, closed his eyes and ignored others, leaving them either worried or surprised.

Xia Qiu understood Ouyang Xiao Leng's physical condition, but she was still a little hurt. According to Ouyang Hongye's arrangement, she should not come to the demon world recently. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Xiao Leng didn't even send her away without even saying goodbye.

She comforted herself that it must be because he was really tired and said happily, "Then I'm leaving!" I'll see you later!" Then he walked out of the house with Ouyang Yong and Ouyang Hongye.

The school is full of tension before the final exam. Xia Qiu tries to fully absorb all the key points explained by the teacher in class, and completes homework and review homework in the self-study class. After school, according to the agreement, she will go directly to Ouyang Ancient House to help Dong Muya, or learn knife techniques from Ouyang Hongye. After calculation, she hasn't been active with Liu Lingmei and others for a long time.

After school on Friday, Liu Lingmei pouted and begged, "Xiaoqiu, how's your review going? Let's go to dinner together today, how about it?"

In fact, Xia Qiu has been suppressing her emotions by busy study these days. Whether at school or in Ouyang Ancient House, in the process of studying with Dong Muya and Ouyang Hongye, she doesn't want to be lazy for a moment, because as long as she is idle, she will recall the coldness when Ouyang Xiao Leng sent her away that day. A look of indifference. Hasn't she been used to his indifference for a long time? Why are there so many emotions? She couldn't figure out the reason.

She felt that she should not be entangled in this problem anymore. Maybe she would feel better after relaxing with Liu Lingmei, so she answered, "Okay!"

"Great! You haven't been with me for a long time!" Liu Lingmei was so moved that she was about to cry. She took her hand and walked out of the classroom.

Xia Qiu sent a text message to Dong Muya, telling her that she wanted to take a day off today and go to the city center with her friends. She soon received a reply from Dong Muya. It was just a short OK, but it was very in line with her cool personality.

She and Liu Lingmei walked on the commercial street together. Even the unknown pop songs released in the video store made her happy at this moment. She smiled and asked, "Lingmei, what do you want to eat?"

"Well, it's so cold. Let's go eat hot pot!" Liu Lingmei thought about it and made a proposal.

"Good!" Xia Qiu's idea coincided with her.

As she was walking to the hot pot restaurant, two familiar figures appeared in front of her. At first, she thought she had misread it, but soon she was sure that the two were Dong Muya and Qianqi.

"Mr. Dong!"

Xia Qiu and Liu Lingmei exclaimed with one voice.

Qianqi seems to be taller than before. His wheat-colored face is full of a smile that is enough to drive away the cold current. The light gray hoodie and jeans he is wearing should be Ouyang Xiao Leng, and that pair of black sneakers look not abrupt at all.

He rushed up and hugged Xia Qiu tightly, regardless of a strange girl standing beside her. He said, "Finally I see you..." repeated many times.
