Chi Lemir, the entire dungeon was lifeless, similar to the despair the city lord Salamander Demon Salamander felt at the moment. All entertainment venues in the city were closed, and the gold diggers were ordered to stay in hotels. The streets were empty except for the patrolling goblins.
Salamander reluctantly walked into the secret room in the east hotel. This time, he had a premonition that he might be in trouble. Qingyun had just been furious about the Demon King Fox's descendants escaping from the Red Mir underground city. His anger had not yet dissipated, and the mysterious man who assisted them in escaping was also killed. Ran. The strange thing is that Baimi Yishu had already set up many traps near the city gate, but he let his guard down when the convoy carrying elixirs and supplements for Qingyun entered the city.
Qingyun, who was behind the curtain, had just drank a potion of elixir handed over by Hei Yun. The elixir was based on a rare high-alcohol fire wine, and then used thousand-year-old snow lotus rhizomes, oriental salamanders, scorpion essence, etc. , and finally topped with powder ground from the honeycomb of the black bee demon. In addition to being able to treat severe internal injuries, it can also enhance demonic power, but it also has the disadvantage of having hallucinogenic side effects.
Qingyun's long breathing sound came from behind the curtain, and the salamander outside also shivered. He lowered his head and waited for his fate. He was ready to be cut into pieces. If he didn't make trouble, he would be killed. Become Qingyun's next medicine.
"I heard that you let the mysterious man who assisted the Demon King Fox run away again?"
Qingyun He's voice sounded a little intermittent, perhaps because he had just taken the elixir, and once the hallucinogenic side effects started, the tone in his words could not be heard. But the more this happened, the more unsure Salamander felt, and he replied tremblingly: "A small crime deserves death. I have wasted your trust, master!"
"Haha, do you know what you should do?"
Qingyun's words behind the curtain made Salamander even more confused. He simply blurted out and asked: "Should the little one kill himself?"
Qingyun did not comment on his question and asked him: "Do you know why I chose to recuperate in Chi Lemir?"
Salamander took a deep breath and replied: "I thought that there is a desert between Chi Lao Mir and other places in the demon world, and this desert is a natural barrier. The army of the royal city was already exhausted before they arrived here. It can be said that it is easy to defend." Difficult to attack.”
"So I think the old guys in the royal city don't dare to let the Demon King Fox lead his troops to attack. But now that they know where I am, Ouyang Xiaoleng will definitely be anxious. The more panic he gets, The smoother my plans will go."
After Qingyun finished speaking unhurriedly, he felt his vision became increasingly hazy, and then ordered Hei Yun to send Salamander away.
The situation in the royal city was just as Qingyun expected. As soon as Ouyang Xiaoleng returned to the royal city, he proposed to the two elders and Ouyang Hongye the decision to send troops to attack Chi Lemil, but he still received no reply from them. He finally lost his temper and rushed to the Assistant Star Hall. As soon as he entered Grandpa Yong's residence, he found that Ouyang Hongye and Lion King Cheng were also there. When he once again expressed his intention to lead troops into the underground city and destroy Qingyun, the two elders and Ouyang Hongye fell into silence.
In fact, before Ouyang Xiaoleng came to Fuxing Palace, Ouyang Yong was discussing this issue with Lion King Cheng and Ouyang Hongye. But the final conclusion was that none of the three people advocated sending troops rashly. There are three reasons: First, the situation in the royal city is limited at this time. Once troops are sent, there is no guarantee that Qingyun’s other subordinates will not take the opportunity to counterattack the royal city; second, large troops cross The desert is extremely difficult. Even if they barely reach the underground city, the soldiers are already physically and mentally exhausted, defeated and unable to fight at all. Third, Ouyang Hongye has not fully recovered after losing a large amount of her demonic power. Mochizuki has also left the royal city and is now able to go with a few teenagers. Only Fenghuo was left in Chi Lemir's side, while Qingyun's side had several generals on the battlefield, and they were all very different in terms of combat effectiveness and actual combat experience.
Ouyang Yong cited these three reasons to Ouyang Xiaoleng one by one. Although he accepted them on the surface, he still struggled in his heart. If you simply follow his will, then rushing to Chi Lemil to fight Qingyun is definitely the only option, but now he is no longer an individual, but the master of the entire demon world, and every decision he makes will have consequences. It affects the fate of the demon world and other individuals in the demon world.
He suddenly wanted to know what choice his father Ouyang Xueye would make if he faced such a problem? Should he take the overall situation into consideration or be loyal to himself? He knew that his father could no longer give him any answers or suggestions. Perhaps the only one he could rely on was himself.
Dong Muya has not returned since she left Ouyang Ancient House, leaving only Xia Qiu alone. She also took this opportunity to clean up the underground database. In fact, she had long felt that working in such an environment was really bad for Dong Muya's health, but once she started cleaning, she found that it was really a difficult project. Starting with the innermost table, the ashtray filled with cigarette butts already smelled moldy, and the coffee pot and coffee cup had not been cleaned for an unknown period of time.
Following Dong Muya these days, she basically learned how to organize information. The information scattered everywhere was quickly put back into the shelf according to the code, and then she dusted off the thick paper in the room. Dust, wiped the floor twice again. The basement seemed brighter than before, and the lemon scent left by the detergent made people feel comfortable. She thought Dong Muya would also like it.
Ouyang Xiaoleng never appeared in front of her. She heard some things from Qianqi about the demon world's dispute over whether to send troops to attack Chi Lemier, but failed in the end, and she began to worry about Ouyang Xiaoleng again. It must be a torture for him to know Qingyun's hiding place but not be able to go there.
She was wondering if she should go to Chenji Palace, but she thought that if she appeared at this time, Ouyang Xiaoleng might be even more upset, and the girl named Queer was smart and well-behaved, so maybe she was more suitable to comfort her than herself. Let's choose him.
When Ouyang Xiaoleng returned to Yuheng Hall, his icy face was livid than usual. Lingyu, who had been waiting for him in the courtyard, took a look and knew that his proposal must have been rejected by the elders. In fact, if he thought about it carefully, he did not recommend attacking Chi Lemir. He was very familiar with that place, needless to say it was blocked by the desert. Even in the city, the city lord Salamander has already surrendered to Qingyun, and his troops are all theirs, both covertly and covertly. Coupled with his few capable men, attacking the city with such arrogance is tantamount to suicide. At this time, he really wanted to comfort the young man in front of him who was obviously frustrated but still pretending to be calm.
He had an idea, walked to Ouyang Xiaoleng, blinked his big crystal clear eyes and asked, "Brother Demon King, why do you look so bad?"
Seeing that Ouyang Xiaoleng ignored him and just walked forward on his own path, he quickly caught up and continued: "Even if you can't attack Chi Lemil, there is still a way to defeat Qingyun."
When he said this, Ouyang Xiaoleng immediately stopped and asked lightly: "How do you say it?"
"When Brother Shadow and I were at the East Hotel, we noticed that the lord of the underground city, the Salamander Demon Salamander, would send a convoy out of the city every once in a while to find elixirs and supplements for Qingyun. I'm afraid he has old injuries or stubborn illnesses. So. , as long as we find a way to intercept his motorcade, it is only a matter of time before he dies." After Lingyu finished speaking, he showed an expression of asking for credit.
Ouyang Xiaoleng nodded, seeming to have listened to his words. But he was not in a hurry to respond to him but fell into thinking. If it was as he said, the old wound on Qingyun was probably the sword stabbed by his father Ouyang Xueye sixteen years ago. The wound should have gone straight through his Heart, if it were anyone else, he would have gone to see the Lord of Hell long ago, but this Qingyun is still alive in the world, which shows his abnormality.
Seeing that Ouyang Xiaoleng's expression softened slightly, Lingyu hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and used his unique skill of looking back with a charming smile and said to him: "Brother Demon King is in a bad mood, and Que'er is in a bad mood, why not sit down and watch Que'er do what he wants?" You have a dance."
Lingyu summoned his demon servants and asked them to move several large drums that were used during palace celebrations to the Yuheng Hall. They supported them with drum stands. The drum heads rushed towards him and formed a circle. They also placed fine wine and delicacies on the table. Ouyang Xiaoleng sat down.
In the inner hall of Yuheng, sandalwood lingers, floating directly towards the five-color clouds painted on the top, making the cranes on the clouds more lifelike. The huge lotus paved with blue bricks in the middle of the ground complements the colorful lotus lanterns suspended by the demon servants using magical methods. Lingyu stands under the lamp in colorful clothes, like a fairy.
When Ouyang Xiaoleng was still wondering how to dance without music, the petite Lingyu in front of him started her dance from the lotus palm. His body is extremely soft, and his neck, arms, shoulders, waist, hips and legs can perform difficult movements. His dance is both hard and soft, and when it seems weak, it will suddenly change the rhythm.
When the limbs extend slowly, they suddenly turn into extremely fast rotations. When they leap, they suddenly throw out their water sleeves and beat the drums around them to make drum beats. When they flip over, they suddenly stop in the air, and then unexpectedly scatter golden powder.
In Ling Yu's colorful whirlwind of demonic power, his dance was his technique. This technique was both a skill and a weapon. It was so graceful that it could kill people invisible. Ouyang Xiaoleng was amazed to see it.
Just as he was getting up, Qianqi suddenly visited. As soon as he entered the Yuheng Hall, he was irritated by the sight before him. Xia Qiu was still depressed in Ouyang's ancient house. He was also worried that Ouyang Xiaoleng would be entangled in the elders' unwillingness to send troops to attack Chi Lemil. He did not expect that someone here would There is such leisure and elegance to enjoy alone.
In the past, he had always felt that since he and Ouyang Xiaoleng both liked Xia Qiu, they should not put too much pressure on her, but allowed her to make choices based on her own heart. But recently, since this girl named Que'er appeared in their sight, he felt more and more that maybe he shouldn't be so humble, and he threw away his sleeves in anger.
Ouyang Xiaoleng also lost interest in continuing to watch the dance. He knew the reason why Qianqi was angry. He must have been fascinated by the ghost before he agreed to the Queer's request.
After Qianqi left Chenji Palace, he planned to go straight to Ouyang's ancient residence. When passing through the shopping street, he suddenly stopped at the door of the small shop opened by Yuyi Yao. Looking in from the outside, there were actually more fireworks in her store, and the colorful packaging was very playful. He recalled that he hadn't paid attention to the owner of this store for a while, so he walked in.
The boss is weaving an oval-shaped lamp with rattan. Her hands are like magic, weaving back and forth to weave dense flowers on the tied lamp stand. Placing candles will surely reflect the pattern of these flowers onto the roof and walls.
"Why not try to find a way to make this kind of lamp rotate? I have seen similar designs in the world. It will definitely be very popular!"
Qianqi's whimsical suggestion suddenly aroused the interest of the boss of Yuyi Yao. She raised her head. Her eyes, which were already blurry due to overwork, were further blurred due to continuous work. The boy's appearance was not clear, but he still remembered his voice.
She smiled kindly and said, "What a great idea. Do you have any other ideas? Tell me again!"
Qianqi thought for a while and answered her: "Well, how about weaving a pattern of stars? Then when it lights up, the room will turn into a sea of stars! If you can make such a lamp, no matter what price you want I would buy it and give it to a friend of mine."
The feather-clothed demon nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll give it a try!"
Qianqi looked at the fireworks piled up in the store and asked with some confusion: "Why do you think of selling fireworks?"
"A vendor selling fireworks passed by this street. I saw how pitiful he was so I bought all the fireworks he had."
After listening to Yuyi Yao's words, Qian Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Unexpectedly, after experiencing such pain and hurt in Zangquetai City, she could still maintain such a compassionate heart. The anger she had previously felt toward Ouyang Xiaoleng was relieved by this warmth.
After he selected several types of fireworks in the store, he handed the boss a piece of gold and hurried out of the store before the boss could see clearly.
