Chapter 335 Invitation from the Lion King
Only Lan Zhu himself knows that he has a deep hatred for the demon king fox and the demon world under his control. Since his mother Lan Ruoqing handed him over to Qingyun, who was still a baby, he had no choice but to rely on Qingyun's magic blood for several years. His body became stronger and stronger, but at the same time, he also became dependent on Qingyun's magic blood. This dependence made him addicted. If he can't drink magic blood on a designated day every month, it will make him have a living. It's better to feel like death.
In the more than ten years of living around Qingyun, he was instilled with a lot of hatred. In order to destroy the pure and weak part of his nature, Qingyun used his tricks from his childhood. At first, he couldn't even kill a rabbit with a poison needle, but in the end he became cruel under the ** of Qingyun. It is not difficult to see from the fact that what he has in addition to strength, what he has is more of a murderous atmosphere.
That night, after talking with his godfather Wang Yuli, although he seemed to have gone back to the room to rest, in fact, as soon as he returned to the room, he pressed the mechanism under the edge of the bed and jumped down after the boat board flipped.
Because he inherited half of the bloodline of Lan Ruoqing, the mother of the snake demon, his eyes are also extremely adaptable to the dark environment, and he can walk in the secret channel without any lighting at all. There is another reason, that is, because he is very familiar with this secret channel. A long time ago, he relied on this secret channel to see Qingyun, but the prince Yuli did not know it.
He went all the way forward, first down for a while, then parallel, then up, and finally to the exit of the passage. After coming out of the passage, he called his demon horse, flew up and ran into a dense forest. Obviously, it was a quiet night, but between the tree and the tree whispered because of his arrival. He finally got off his horse in front of a huge pine and cypress in the dense forest and put one of his hands on the trunk of the pine and cypress. Suddenly, the dialogue between the trees in the wind began to grow. Then two eyes suddenly appeared on the trunk in front of him. The eyes opened and stared at him, and then the trunk opened to both sides and went straight in. After that, the trunk returned to its original state.
This is the place built by the fire lizard sapworm hundreds of years before it reached Chimir. It can be said that it is an experiment. He originally wanted to become a city that never sleeps, opening casinos and wind and moon places, but in the end he did not have the courage to challenge his kingship under the eyes of the demon king fox.
Although this dungeon is not as large as Chimir, it is enough to hide the army of Qingyun. Except for Qingyun himself, his other men did not know that they would eventually move here. After his plan to use the source blood pool to change the soul for Xia Qiu failed, he ordered to lead his army to enter the dungeon secretly.
Lanzhu ran all the way down the stairs, and his footsteps were very light. He first came to a huge empty field in the dungeon, which was the place where the Qingyun army trained, and the barracks of these soldiers were the rows of neat stone houses directly opposite.
Through the barracks, you will reach the warehouse area, where in addition to weapons, food and other supplies are stored. Qingyun and several generals under his command lived in the innermost building, which was guarded by magic soldiers in blue cloaks.
After seeing Lan Zhu, the big-headed magic soldier said, "Lord Qingyun has been waiting for you for a long time!"
Lanzhu hurried into the gate. There were wooden doors on both sides of a narrow corridor, and Qingyun's own room was at the end of the corridor. At this moment, Yecha just came out of Qingyun's room. After seeing Lan Zhu, he nodded and opened the door for him.
In the empty room, there is only a table, a few chairs, and a simple bed made of stone. It is hard to imagine that Qingyun would live in such a simple place. Rasha's mother was sitting in a chair and playing with an apple. When she saw the blue bamboo coming in, her dry eyes suddenly lit up, and then smiled charmingly at him. Qingyun still sat at the table wearing his blue tiger head mask, quietly looking at a book. After Lan Zhu came to him, he closed the book and looked up at him.
Lan Zhu knelt down in front of Qingyun and said, "Lord Qingyun! The secret road in my godfather's mansion has been discovered by them. I don't know how these people found it. Moreover, the demon king fox's men are really two things. The whole mansion is obviously so big, but she can easily find the secret entrance in my room. I was going to cut her to the root, but it was just a little bit, but she was saved by my adoptive father.
"Oh? What did your godfather say? Qingyun was not angry, but pretended to ask with concern.
"He seems to have some hope to be caught by them. As you know, over the years, in order to continue my life, he has been violating his so-called morality and conscience." The blue bamboo showed a trace of embarrassment.
"It's really stubborn. Obviously, he is just a minister. No matter who becomes the lord of the demon world, there will be no real change for him."
"What is certain now is that two secret channels have been discovered by them."
"They will definitely seize the time to destroy these two secret passages..." Qingyun took a deep breath and said, "I still know the relationship between your godfather and you. It doesn't matter if you feel embarrassed. You don't have to come here in the future.
"Are you going to drive me away?" Blue bamboo can't help but make a swallowing action.
Qingyun saw that he was thirsty for his magic blood again, so he exposed half of his left arm, drew an opening on it with his sharp nails on his tiger claws, and handed it to his mouth and said, "No, I'm also thinking about it for you. Although I put forward a condition to your godfather in the name of saving you, you should know in your heart that I have been with you since you were young, and I have had feelings for a long time.
Lan Zhu put his arms in his hands, sucked a few times crazily, and then answered, "Yes, so you should understand my feelings more. Even if I have feelings for my adoptive father, I have more feelings for you and my father. You not only saved me, but also taught me the ability to revenge. How can I waste my power? Tell me, Lord Qingyun, when can we start a war against the demon king fox? Blood washed the Chenji Palace full of sin.
"Don't worry, kid! Our time is coming, and then you can avenge your father! And I..." The wound on Qingyun's arm had healed while talking.
"At that time, I just beg you to give the demon king fox teenager a sword!"
"Of course, of course! You continue to monitor the movement of the royal city, and I will make the army in this dungeon stronger. Sooner or later, everything here will be in our pockets. Qingyun agreed.
In the auxiliary star hall of Chenji Palace, Ouyang Hongye told several people around him the news about the existence of a secret channel in the mansion of the royal beaver. After hearing this, the second elder, Wang Cheng, his face changed dramatically and jumped up from the chair at a young age.
"How is that possible?! Wanghou Yuli has always been loyal to the demon king fox. In the war 16 years ago, he also tried his best to kill the enemy bravely, saying that he was a traitor in the king's city?! How is that possible?! What nonsense! I think you are scared by Qingyun. The grass and trees are all soldiers. Everyone looks like traitors!"
"I can only ask him to explain whether there is a secret entrance in his mansion!" Ouyang Hongye said with peace of mind.
He has long expected how Lion Wangcheng would react, because it is well known that his friendship with the prince Yuli is extraordinary. If this matter is confirmed, it will inevitably attract discussion from all parties, and Lion Wangcheng is the person who values reputation more than anything else. How can he tolerate such a thing?
"But as the prince Yuli, even if you just call him to Chenji Palace, it will inevitably attract other people's comments and suspicions." Ouyang Yong raised his concerns.
"Can we not mention what to do for the time being, even with him and himself? If it is not eye-catching, we need the help of another person to summon him into the palace." Ouyang Xiao Leng suddenly interrupted several other people.
"Who?" Ouyang Yong and Ouyang Hongye asked almost at the same time.
"Sincere Elder! How about youyan him alone in the Kaiyang Hall in your own name? Ouyang Xiao Leng turned directly to Lion Wangcheng and said.
"If it is confirmed that the prince Yuli is innocent, how do you want me to face this friend in the future?" Shi Wangcheng still had some concerns in his heart, so he retorted.
"But whether he is innocent or not depends on you to come to a conclusion, otherwise he will only be under the hat of being suspected of being a traitor in the royal city."
"Okay, just do as you say! But I won't ask him!" Although Lion Wangcheng was not very willing, he could only agree when he heard that Ouyang Xiao Leng had said so.
Since Wanghou Yuli received the invitation from the lion Wang Cheng, he began to feel uneasy. As soon as the demon king fox's men found the secret road, he was invited to the Kaiyang Hall to the banquet. The answer could not be simpler. Going to the banquet was just a cover, but their real purpose was to explain the secret road to themselves.
He is not afraid of death, and he also thinks from the bottom of his heart that he should be punished. The only worry is that if he is really executed, the hatred in the hearts of Lan Ruoqing and Lan Zhu will increase again. Although he doesn't know when the scars in the hearts of the mother and her will be healed, he has been doing his best to make them feel the beauty and happiness of living in this world over the years, but this effort can only stop here.
Wanghou Yuli left a letter to Lan Ruoqing and Lan Zhu, and then he came to the outside of the Chenji Palace one hour in advance. After showing the invitation to the guard, he went straight to the Kaiyang Hall. In the past, he would come here to drink and chat with Lion Wangcheng from time to time, but after the crisis of the divine pillar, Lion Wangcheng's health was not as good as before, and the number of times he came was reduced.
The demon servant led him to the place where the dinner was held. In the past, he went directly to meet him in the study of Lion King Cheng, but today's room is strange. A circle of tableware has been placed on the large round table. From the number of tableware, it is known that he and Shi Wangcheng are not the only ones attending the dinner today.
He casually chose a seat and sat down, and the demon servant brought tea for him. If this was a trial, the demon king fox and others were too polite to him. People like him who betrayed the demon world should be directly taken away from the mansion by the demon king fox's men. But if it was not to judge him, why did he be summoned to the palace at this time?
Just as he was thinking about it and didn't know why, Lion King Cheng and Fenghuo came in together. He got up quickly to salute and said, " Elder Cheng!"
"Alas, don't be polite, Yu Li!" Lion King Cheng's face was full of sadness, and he paused and said, "I didn't tell you in advance. There will be several guests besides you today."
"I can see it!" Wanghou Yuli looked at the tableware on the table and answered.
The seat of Lion Wang Cheng is separated from the position of the prince Yuli. If it was normal, he would definitely choose to sit next to him. Although the age difference between the two is quite a lot, because of their similar temperament, they have already become forgetful friends.
Wanghou Yuli remembered the trust and care of Shi Wang Cheng over the years, and couldn't help but feel even more ashamed, and his heart was like a knife. Thinking that if the betrayal of the royal city is exposed, the most difficult thing must be the person in front of him.
