After Hei Yun left Wutong Residence, he immediately rushed back to the barren mountains to the north outside the royal city. The wolves had already sensed his return when he was still some distance away. They were spinning in place and making humming sounds. In Xia Qiu's opinion, the way they expressed their excitement was very similar to that of dogs. As their excitement level changed, it could be seen that he was getting closer and closer.
Ouyang Xiaoleng hadn't figured out how to face him yet, but in fact, when he actually saw Hei Yun, it was much more natural than he imagined. A group of black mist floated quickly towards him and Xia Qiu, and gathered in front of them into the tall figure that had accompanied Qingyun.
Hei Yun was even much taller than Ouyang Xiao Leng. After bowing his head and saluting them, the first thing he did was to turn to the alpha wolf of the pack and commanded it: "Liang Ya, Take the wolf pack to see if you can find a little girl nearby. She is about the same age as Sir Xia Qiu, but shorter than her. If you find her, don’t alert her, come back here and let me know immediately!"
"Yes, Lord Black Meteor!" After the alpha wolf, who was called Liangya, responded, he led the pack of wolves and dispersed.
"So it has a name!" Xia Qiu suddenly became distracted and muttered to herself, but she soon realized that Hei Yun's words just now meant that someone was missing.
"The little girl you are talking about is...?" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked Hei Yun one step ahead of her.
"I'm talking about Snow Rabbit. She heard the conversation between me and her mother Miaoxueyu. She couldn't accept it for a while and ran out of the house. I also briefly searched around, but couldn't find it. Come to her. Miao Xueyou himself should be in Chenji Palace now, I think you should go back first." Hei Yun answered truthfully.
"It's not your turn to tell us what to do!" Ouyang Xiaoleng was still hostile to him. He asked coldly, "Let me ask you, I heard Liangya say that you are going to find the traitor in the royal city. Yes, it seems that the traitor is Miao Xueyuan?!"
"Yes, she will tell you the other things herself. The top priority now is to find her daughter. I'm worried that Qingyun's men will take the opportunity to take her away." Hei Yun answered calmly, regarding Ouyang Xiaoleng's attitude towards him. , he was already prepared in his heart.
"Xuetu..." Xia Qiu could imagine how shocked Xuetu would be if he found out that his mother was the traitor who had been hiding in the royal city. Even she felt it was very sudden. She advised Ouyang Xiaoleng, "We It’s better to go back to Chenji Palace first and listen to what she has to say, and then seize the time to find the whereabouts of the Snow Rabbit!”
Ouyang Xiaoleng also understood that now was not the time to be entangled with Hei Yun about the past, so he nodded silently and prepared to leave with Xia Qiu.
"Then please help us look for snow rabbits nearby!" Xia Qiu said to Hei Yun before saying goodbye.
"Okay, leave it to me!" Hei Yun's heart was touched by her again. In her own capacity, there was no need for the girl to plead with herself in such a tone, she just gave her orders. But this may be what makes her unique, and it is precisely because of her uniqueness that he sincerely respects her.
Ouyang Xiaoleng and Xia Qiu returned to Chenji Palace. Outside the Fuxing Palace, several of Ouyang Hongye's most trusted guards were guarding them. However, inside the main hall, everyone had fallen silent since unknown time. Seeing the two of them coming back, Qian Qi and Ling Yu's eyes showed the relief that the problem was finally solved.
Mochizuki's expression, whose shoulders were held tightly by the two of them, changed from anger to pain, and he suddenly broke free from Lingyu and Qianqi's hands. This move shocked the two teenagers. They thought he was finally going to rush towards Miao Xueyou, but unexpectedly he just said: "Since the Demon King Fox is back, it is up to you and me to decide what kind of punishment she should be given." Now that the two elders have decided, I will go ahead and find the little snow rabbit!"
After he finished speaking, he hugged everyone, but his eyes did not intersect with anyone's. But when he passed by Miao Xueyou, he couldn't help but glance at her, but he quickly looked away. He couldn't imagine what he would do if he continued to stay in the Assistant Star Hall. To him, the entire space here was so depressing. The pain he felt when he learned that his brother died suddenly came back, and he realized that The wound in my chest that I thought for a long time had no longer hurt, actually never healed.
Ouyang Xiaoleng walked up to Miao Xueyou. This woman had never looked so haggard before. In his memory, she was always meticulous from top to bottom, whether it was her clothes or her speech and behavior. In other words, her Her nerves always seemed to be on edge, and she tried her best to look her best in front of others.
But now, Miao Xueyou has given up all of this. If she hadn't been concerned about the safety of her daughter Xuetu, she would have killed herself right now. Bits and pieces of her past with Tingyue suddenly turned into a violent storm, sweeping her whole body. It was only at this moment that she realized that she also loved him, but her eyes were blinded by hatred, so she could not catch up in time. to discover his true feelings. His love and tenderness for her were like drops of water, seeping into her heart little by little.
Whether she dislikes his appearance or resists marriage to him, she is just demonstrating to them because she failed to get the love she expected from Ouyang Xueye. She knew that if Tingyue was still alive, he would definitely forgive her. Even if she wanted his life, he would give it to her without hesitation. This was the way he loved her, and he would quietly guard her for a hundred years. For many years, I never asked for anything in return.
Ouyang Xiaoleng finally listened to the crime that Miao Xueyou confessed before he and Xia Qiu arrived. One can imagine his anger, but he still tried his best to suppress his emotions. He felt deeply about Miao Xueyou's hatefulness. But compared to this, what is even more unforgivable is Qingyun. He has always been able to successfully exploit the weaknesses of others, past and present, but who will become his puppet in the future
"Xiao Leng, tell us what your plan is?" Ouyang Yong decided to let Ouyang Xiao Leng make a decision on Miao Xueyou.
"Ensure the safety of Snow Rabbit first!" Ouyang Xiaoleng paused for a moment, then made up his mind and continued, "And Miao Xueyou, I hope you can continue to pretend to be Qingyun's internal agent. Only a few of us know about this matter now. So it is better to use a counter-intelligence trick. You can tell Qingyun and his group false information at any time, so that we can get more opportunities to deal with him."
"Yes, this is a good idea!" Ouyang Yong praised.
First, he was pleased with Ouyang Xiaoleng's consideration of the overall situation and resourcefulness; secondly, because of the crimes Miao Xueyou committed, it was not an exaggeration to give him death, but the past relationship between father and daughter made it difficult for him to be so cruel. .
"I can't allow you to make a choice, Xueyou! This is also to make up for it for Xuetu!" Lion King Cheng also felt that Ouyang Xiaoleng's proposal was excellent.
"Okay, okay, whatever you want me to do is fine, as long as you can find the snow rabbit..." Miao Xueyou responded repeatedly.
She has no other extravagant hopes. If she can see the snow rabbit again, she will die without regrets. She knew that she would not be able to meet Tingyue or Ouyang Xueye after she died, because her destination must be hell, and she did not deserve the opportunity to repent to them. Such regret is both punishment and relief.
After Yukito escaped from home to avoid being chased by his mother, Myosetsuyu, the first place he thought of was a hotel behind the shopping street. The hotel was relatively hidden and difficult to find. Besides, all the strength in her body seemed to have been drained away, and she really couldn't go very far.
In the small room in the hotel, the floors, walls and furniture are quite old, and the air is filled with the smell of moldy wood. Snow Rabbit hugged his knees with both hands and sat blankly on the bed, wrapped in a quilt that had been covered by countless people.
She wanted to rest until she regained her strength and then leave the royal city of Yongchuan. As for where to go, she had no idea at all. She was in such a hurry when she came out that the money she brought with her was very limited and probably wouldn't last long, but she couldn't do it if she was asked to face her mother and other people now. Because of her hatred, her mother became an accomplice of the group that killed her father, and many people died as a result, including Ouyang Xiaoleng's parents.
In the past, she always thought that the reason why her mother locked up all her father's belongings and never allowed her to ask about her father's past was because she still loved him so deeply that she could not face the fact of losing him. But now it seems that what I thought at the time was simply ironic. My mother didn't want to remember her father. Maybe it was because of guilt, but maybe it wasn't even guilt. She just wanted to pretend that nothing had happened. Otherwise, my mother And why do you continue to help Qingyun
She doesn't know if others can accept her from the bottom of their hearts. Even if they accept her, it must be out of sympathy, right? She has become the daughter of a traitor. Will they also regard her as her accomplice? This is very possible.
These contradictions slowly devoured her whole being. Her mood had never been so heavy as it was at this moment, and it was the first time that her mind was filled with so much distress at the same time. Originally, she was full of curiosity about the outside world, but she was also inevitably afraid, but now, her feelings have completely changed. The outside world has become her life-saving straw, and it is more like a kind of relief. She must fly away.
The floor in the hotel corridor was as old as the floor in the room. When someone walked by, there would be a creaking sound, and the sound stopped in front of her door, followed by several rhythmic knocks on the door. .
She was completely focused on thinking about where she should go. She was startled. She jumped up from the bed and shouted in the direction of the door: "Who?"
"Hotel guy, the light in this room seems to be broken. The boss asked me to replace it for you." The voice outside the door answered.
"Wait!" Snow Rabbit opened the door to the room without thinking too much.
But at the same time, she regretted it, because she remembered that she had talked with the hotel clerk when she checked in. His voice seemed to be much lighter than this man's.
Sure enough, the person who appeared at the door was not a hotel clerk. Before she could see the man's face clearly, she fainted from inhaling some powder.
