The first class is English, which is Xia Qiu’s favorite subject besides Chinese. Although I have missed countless classes, it feels like the sentences in the books have suddenly become much longer than before, but as long as you master the basic grammar, the meaning will not be difficult to understand.
When she raised her hand, the English teacher naturally called her name and asked her to answer a question about passive voice. She handled it easily and felt a little proud. As soon as I sat down on the chair, I noticed that there was an extra piece of paper on the table.
When he unfolded it, he saw that it was Ouyang Xiaoleng's handwriting. He asked directly: "What's going on with the injury on your hand?"
He hurried into the classroom just a few seconds before the bell rang. When he passed Xia Qiu's position, he saw the gauze wrapped around her hand. He wanted to wait until after class to ask her why she was injured, but only halfway through the class, he couldn't stand it any longer.
Xia Qiu was hesitant about how to convey to Ouyang Xiaoleng about the sudden appearance of Hei Yun in front of him. If he accidentally said something wrong, he would probably rush out of the classroom and fight to the barren mountain north of the Demon Realm King City. , find out where Hei Yun and his wolves are hiding, and then fight to the death with him. After all, before yesterday, no matter whether Hei Yun had helped them or not, he was their enemy. How could the long-standing grievances and grudges be easily resolved? Moreover, since she was taken away by Qingyun, Ouyang Xiaoleng had no idea about this situation. Become extremely sensitive.
After thinking about it, she decided to tell him what happened truthfully, but it was in a face-to-face manner, and it was indeed a bit difficult to write such a long story on paper. So I responded to him on the note calmly: "Nothing, let's go to class first! We'll talk about it during lunch break."
Originally, she wanted to leave this lunch break to her and Liu Lingmei, but before she knew it, being able to sit face to face with her and share each other's lunches while talking and laughing turned out to be a very luxurious thing. Regarding the recent popular things among girls, , she has long been out of touch. But the top priority is how to convince Ouyang Xiaoleng to accept Heiyu to join their team.
It was already a bit hot on the rooftop at noon. Ouyang Xiaoleng took off his school uniform jacket and unbuttoned three of the shirt's openings, revealing his beautiful collarbone. She didn't know if it was because the sun was too bright, but he was so beautiful that she couldn't look directly at him, surrounded by that golden glow. She felt that her cheeks were definitely flushed the moment she looked at him, and the sudden acceleration of her heartbeat made her take a few deep breaths.
Ouyang Xiaoleng stretched out a hand without warning, put it directly on her forehead, and asked: "Don't you have a fever? Why is your face so hot?"
Xia Qiu shook her head, her heart beating faster and faster. She looked away and said, "No... no!"
Ouyang Xiaoleng blinked doubtfully, then pointed to the bandaged area on her hand and asked, "Okay, now tell me how you did this?"
Xia Qiu adjusted her breathing and said as calmly as possible: "You must first promise me not to be impulsive and listen to what I have to say."
"Okay!" Ouyang Xiaoleng had already guessed that the injury on her hand was not ordinary. He was eager to know the answer and agreed to her request more happily than she imagined.
"Hei Yun came to see me last night." After saying this, Xia Qiu paused for a moment. Seeing that Ouyang Xiaoleng wanted to have an attack but still endured it, she continued, "Do you remember that at Chi Le Mir's house?" Once, I was injured by his Black Meteor Knife, but it was true that he suddenly fell into a state where he could not fight."
"Yes, we thought it was strange at the time, but we were focused on escaping from the dungeon, so we didn't have time to think so much." Ouyang Xiaoleng suddenly remembered the situation at that time, and Hei Yun, who was sitting on the ground blankly, looked like He received a huge blow and was far from his previous tough image.
"When I came into contact with the Black Meteor Knife that day, I accidentally entered the state of soul separation, and therefore read some information contained in the Black Meteor Knife. This information was related to Black Meteor's life experience. He has been hesitating since then. Should I disobey Qingyun's order and come to me to learn more about his life experience?" Xia Qiu continued.
"Before in Hidden Pine, he first let us go at the Mountain God Barrel, and later sent a wolf pack to help us when we escaped from the Songshan Temple. He said at that time that he helped us because he wanted to ask you for help. So I have to let you live. Now I finally understand what makes him betray the devil Qingyun." Since Ouyang Xiaoleng left Yinsong, he finally had a clue about Hei Yun's questions, but he After a second thought, he asked again, "But what does this have to do with your injury? Could it be..."
Xia Qiu then told Ouyang Xiaoleng how Hei Yun, the only remaining descendant of the Black Wolf clan, came to the world and how he became Qingyun's subordinate. It was just that he and the wolves were temporarily stationed outside the royal city. She planned to stay. Until the end, before that, she had to test Ouyang Xiaoleng's reaction.
"So this injury is because he wanted to kill himself after knowing his life experience, and you stepped forward to stop him?" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked after hearing what she said.
"Yeah." Xia Qiu waited seriously for what Ouyang Xiaoleng would say next.
"Only you would do this. Aren't you afraid that he is a spy sent by Qingyun? The purpose is to kidnap you back?" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked helplessly.
"Hei Yun shouldn't be that kind of person." Xia Qiu shook his head and answered affirmatively.
"Why are you so sure?!" Ouyang Xiaoleng found it hard to imagine that after experiencing fatal danger, she could still firmly believe in Hei Yun.
"Intuition." Xia Qiu's answer was simple and clear.
"Well, it seems that he was stopped by you. What does he want to do next?" Ouyang Xiaoleng knew that this was Xia Qiu's character, so he stopped worrying and continued to ask.
"He said that if I need it, I can get his help at any time, and he will not go back to Qingyun again. In addition, if you want to punish him for the past, he will gladly accept it."
"I do have some questions to ask him. Where is he now?"
"You're not really going to arrest him, are you?" Xia Qiu still couldn't be completely sure of Ouyang Xiaoleng's attitude, so she asked him.
"Maybe, but before we convict him, he might still be of some help to us."
"for example?"
"He must know who the inner ghost is in the royal city."
"You mean the person who broke the seal of the divine pillar and let Yasha go..." Xia Qiu remembered that Ouyang Xiaoleng almost died because of this, and she actually shivered under the sun.
"right!"
The anger in Ouyang Xiaoleng's eyes formed a clear contrast with his ice sculpture-like face, which was a mixture of ice and fire. The traitor who had been hiding in the royal city and constantly betraying them was the one who broke the seals of the Four Divine Pillars and played tricks on him, Xia Qiu and others, and it was he who let Yasha go and framed Mochizuki. As a result, he became a target and was forced to escape from the royal city and become a shadow warrior.
No matter what high-sounding reasons this person has, his betrayal of Wangcheng is something that Ouyang Xiaoleng cannot forgive. He even suspects that this person is directly related to Qingyun's successful sneak attack on Wangcheng sixteen years ago, so he is the devil. an accomplice, and was inseparable from the death of his parents.
He was momentarily dominated by anger and froze on the spot, and did not say anything for a while.
"Xiao Leng?" Xia Qiu called, "What's wrong with you?"
"Huh? It's nothing! Now can you tell me where Hei Yun is hiding?" Ouyang Xiaoleng came back to his senses and asked.
"He and the wolves are in the barren mountains to the north outside the royal city. If you have any questions to ask him, I will go with you." Xia Qiu still felt that the best way to prevent the conflict between Ouyang Xiaoleng and Hei Yun was that she must also Be present.
The two decided to go directly outside the royal city to look for Hei Yun after school. But before that, Xia Qiu first borrowed all the notes on each subject and asked Dong Muya to help her make two copies, one for herself and one for Ouyang Xiaoleng.
She had never asked whether Ouyang Xiaoleng would continue studying like her after finishing high school. Going to college was just her dream and had nothing to do with family expectations or external pressure. She just simply wanted to I review my homework in the library in the afternoon, want to listen to professors’ speeches in the lecture theater, and want to participate in various off-campus activities...
After entering the maze and passing through the two long corridors, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng once again set foot on the land of the demon world. They flew directly to the barren mountains in the north of the city. It seemed like a long time since they last looked at the entire royal city under the purple sky from a high altitude. The beauty of the royal city remained the same, and the original golden roof of Chenji Palace also turned golden red in the sunset. Not far away, on the observatory with the big clock, she and Ouyang Xiaoleng had stood side by side to enjoy the fantastic beauty of the purple white lotus and the unique fireworks show of the demon world.
Xia Qiu was immersed in these beautiful memories, and at some point a hand was held by Ouyang Xiaoleng. He was reminding her that it was time to descend. But then she remembered that the barren mountain was huge, and she wasn't sure how to let Hei Yun know that she was coming.
He took her to a relatively flat place in the barren mountain, and then looked around with vigilance, wondering where exactly Hei Yun had hidden the wolves. When he and Xia Qiu were flying in the air just now, he tried to find traces of the wolves, but failed.
But Xia Qiu used the most primitive method and shouted directly: "Black Meteor!"
Her voice echoed in the barren mountains, and was soon answered by the cry of a wolf.
"Ouch!"
The howls of the wolves came from all directions. Even though Ouyang Xiaoleng's hearing and sense of smell were extremely sensitive, it was still difficult to discern the direction in which the black meteor was coming. The person who came to greet them was not Hei Yun himself, but the wolf who had talked with Ouyang Xiaoleng and the others when they were in the hidden pine. The other wolves did not all surround him, but stood on the opposite side. Waiting from afar.
"Master Demon King Fox, Master Xia Qiu." Hei Lang slowly saluted them and called.
"We are here to find Hei Yun." Xia Qiu was still not used to being called an adult. She guessed that this was what Hei Yun meant.
"It's very unfortunate that Master Hei Yun is not here." Hei Lang raised his head and responded.
"Oh? Where did he go?" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked first.
"This..." Hei Lang became a little hesitant, "My lord is going to meet someone."
"Meeting a person? From the royal city?! Could it be that he went to see the traitor?! Haha..." Ouyang Xiaoleng had originally been skeptical about Hei Yun's abandonment of evil and turned to good. Now he felt more and more that he Behavior is strange.
"Master Hei Yun's decision to serve Master Xia Qiu is absolutely not false at all. It's just that I want to try to persuade that person to confess to you what she did." Hei Lang immediately explained.
"Let's wait here for a while. Don't get angry in a hurry before you hear what he has to say." Xia Qiu looked at Ouyang Xiaoleng and said.
