Holding their robes in their hands, the two quickly walked towards the gate of the palace.
While walking, the elder sister said to her younger sister: "When the door opens later, won't this ice phoenix fly out suddenly?"
"No, look over there, it's been circling around the high platform now, so you and I have to hurry up, move faster, it can't fly to the door so fast."
"Okay, hurry up and invite the high priest over."
The two jogged all the way.
squeak—
When the gate of the palace was reopened, I was stunned by the sudden light as I stood behind the pillar and looked up.
After raising his hand to cover his eyes for a while, the two people had already closed the door and left.
Seeing that the two had left the palace, I walked around from behind the pillar and looked at the ice phoenix hovering above the high hall in front.
The ice phoenix seems to be human, after the two weird women left, it glides obliquely and flew towards me.
Quickly intensifying the power in the eyes, I found that the ice phoenix has a pair of extremely transparent eyes.
As if carved out of ice.
After all, the eyes of animals are different from those of humans, and I can't see the emotions in their eyes.
It flew towards me steadily through nearly half of the palace hall.
And I didn't mean to dodge at all, I don't know why, I have a good impression of this ice phoenix, and I want to see what it is going to do.
When I saw that the ice phoenix was about to reach my eyes but showed no intention of slowing down, I suddenly felt that Nie Zun's left hand that I had just let go grabbed my right hand again.
Nie Zun didn't know when he had moved to my right.
But this time I stubbornly did not let him pull me away.
At the moment when the ice phoenix completely reached my eyes, I didn't even blink my eyes.
So, it suddenly stopped in the air like that, its ice wings spread out smoothly in the air, and its two eyes stared at me from both sides.
Seeing it right in front of my eyes, it is so beautiful, with a pair of clear eyes, I couldn't help smiling at it; "Can you understand me?"
"Chirp—" it suddenly opened its mouth and let out a shallow cry.
I was overjoyed immediately, and couldn't help stretching out the other hand that was not held by Nie Zun, and slowly stroked the face of this ice phoenix, a trace of coolness spread quickly along the skin to the heart, and it didn't dodge.
"It can understand my words, Nie Zun, look!" I looked at Nie Zun in surprise, and Nie Zun's originally indifferent eyes seemed to have a gleam of light.
"Well, let me ask you something, are you... an ice phoenix?"
"Chirp—"
"Then are you raised by Du Yue?"
I thought it was just an ordinary question, but as soon as the words came out, Ice Phoenix's eyes suddenly changed, and its wings fluttered a few times quickly.
"What's going on?" I frowned, faintly feeling that the Ice Phoenix seemed to be afraid of the word Duyue, because its eyes gradually revealed a trace of fear. This kind of fearful eyes can be seen by any creature. from.
"Chirp - woo -" Ice Phoenix's cry this time dragged on until it was almost whimpering at the end.
And in its originally crystal clear eyes, a tear slowly seeped out.
I don't know why, seeing this drop of tears made my heart ache suddenly, so I became even more anxious: "What's the matter, Bingfenghuang, did Duyue forcefully imprison you?"
But this time, the ice phoenix didn't make a sound, it just kept flapping its wings again and again, as if it had fallen into some kind of sadness.
"It's okay, how about it, you follow me, I will protect you, okay? Or, I can take you out and get out of here." I softly comforted the poor phoenix in front of me.
But Nie Zun suddenly said: "If you make a promise to it so easily, it will believe that animals are different from humans, not to mention that this ice phoenix is not a mortal thing, but a divine beast. You and I are now in this completely unfamiliar place. The place itself is hard to protect, and you still want to give it such an illusory promise, even for a bird, isn't it a bit cruel?"
His voice was flat throughout, as if he was talking about the weather rather than blaming me.
"Indeed, but, does it have no right to hope just because it's only a phoenix?"
I frowned deeply: "Nie Zun, you really weren't like this before, at least you didn't give up hope for everything. What happened in the process of changing blood in the devil's cave?"
The corner of Nie Zun's mouth twitched bitterly: "Isn't that what I used to be? That's because you don't understand, I've always been like this, and I've always had hope in everything from the army."
"Is it the same for me? Have you never had any hope?" I asked directly.
Nie Zun's watery eyes flickered for a second, and finally he said, "Yes, it's the same for you."
I suddenly laughed.
I looked at him with a smile like a flower, spread my hands and shrugged: "Nie Zun, look, how strong I am now, I will never be sad because of your few words, it's not that your words are not for me. The lethality is because I believe in hope, and I also believe that you must have some last resort reason, I firmly believe that I will get you back, let you rely on me and trust me like before, because I love you."
When I said the last sentence, my tone was very light, and even I could feel his gaze, which was very gentle.
I know that these simple words and expressions can't change anything, but it doesn't matter.
If loving him is destined to be a long war, then I will climb to the end even if I climb.
I swear, I will never be afraid again, never be afraid again, and never follow the old path of killing Gao Qi again.
From the moment I determined my heart for Nie Zun, I have already made a decision. This time, I will definitely love him.
"You were not like this before. Recently, you have been so straightforward and open. Is it because you are not reconciled?" Nie Zun said suddenly.
I smiled lightly: "It seems that you are starting to feel inferior now. Why, you refused to tell me the reason why you must alienate me, so you started to close your heart again? It doesn't matter, I have plenty of time to wait for you."
After saying this, I stopped looking at him, and turned to the ice phoenix again and said softly: "Would you like to come with me, if you want, you can call once, if you don't, you can call twice, okay? "
"Chirp—"
I smiled and glanced at Nie Zun: "See, it is willing, so it should get hope."
"Then what are you going to do next? Do you and I add it, and walk out of here together?" Nie Zun asked.
"Do you have any good ideas? Haven't you always been sensible and smart and good at solving problems? Why, even if you can't be a lover now, you won't be so stingy that you won't even teach me a way?"
"I'm just asking casually. It's up to you to do what you want to do." The indifference that repulsed people thousands of miles away rose again in his eyes.
I casually raised the corners of my lips and didn't care.
It doesn't matter, from now on, I have decided that no matter how much you turn a blind eye to me, I will hang on to you to the end.
Just because, this time, I want to be brave for myself.
After all, I was too cowardly and lonely before, wasn't I.
And, you are actually, the same, right
"Bingfenghuang, I don't know your name yet, and you can't speak, and I can't ask, so I'll give you a new name on my own, okay? Well... what's your name? By the way, Just call me Binger, okay?"
It is simple and nice, but also in line with its crystal clear.
"Chirp—"
Bing'er seemed very happy, and the tears that were about to drop in her eyes gradually disappeared.
"Okay, although I don't know what happened to you here, but you have to trust me, believe that I will bring you out of here, okay? It's just that I just came here now, and I'm not familiar with this place than you Well, it may be a bit difficult to escape, but you have to trust me, I will always take you away from here, okay?"
I dotingly raised my hand to touch its face again.
Its eyes seemed to become sad again.
Nie Zun finally couldn't see it anymore, he opened his mouth and said to Binger: "Can you fly out of this palace by yourself, if you can, call once, if not, call twice, I'm only asking about ability."
"Chirp—" Bing'er called out in a low voice.
"Hey, don't speak so coldly, it will be scared." I accused Nie Zun.
Nie Zunli ignored me and continued his question and answer: "Then I heard from the two women who came here before that you have been here for several years, is it because of some special reason that you can't leave? here?"
"Chirp!" The answer was very short, and it seemed that the answer was very anxious.
Nie Zun was silent for a second, and then continued; "I just heard those two women mention a fire phoenix. Is that fire phoenix your concern?"
"Chirp!" Bing'er suddenly raised her head and let out a long cry.
Then Nie Zun said to me: "Do you understand, it seems that the fire phoenix may also be imprisoned, anyway, that fire phoenix is its concern, so she is reluctant to leave here, I guess, Perhaps Duyue took advantage of the mutual affection between these two phoenixes for each other, thus easily trapping them both."
"Duyue really makes me unable to bear the thought that she is about to gnash her teeth." I said viciously.
The resentment towards Duyue in my heart has not lasted for a day or two, but because of this little phoenix, my resentment suddenly became deeper.
"Then can you take us to find your flaming little friend?" I was afraid that Bing'er would not understand what I said, so I even gestured in the air, which meant that it was the other phoenix. "
"Jiujiu—woo—" This was the first time that Bing'er gave a negative answer and lowered her eyes at the same time.
