After the three of A Ji escaped from the inn, they did not dare to go back, so A Ji took Ji Ning to find a broken temple in the North City for the night.
The current northern border is different from when the merman first came, only the northern border of Yu Yaotai is different. The northern border has its own city, and the original Yuyutai is like the imperial palace in the capital. middle.
Among the four people who met in the dungeon, the snake demon was the one who had stayed in the north the longest among them. Although they were also in prison, they had a home to return to after they were in prison, unlike them. And Lu Jinyan is different from A Ji and Ji Ning. Lu Jinyan also has his own fellow demon masters. Although they only came to the north, after he left the inn, he also had a group that tolerated him. As for A Ji and Ji Ning, they were really unacquainted in the north.
They didn't dare to look for the snake demon, for fear of being found by the mermaid, and they couldn't go back with Lu Jinyan. Those demon masters still have a deep prejudice against the demon and the disciples of the National Teacher's Office, so she had to take Ji Ning to find them. After a broken temple, he fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Lu Jin brought them breakfast with a hot heart, and A Ji woke up early, eating and saying, "We still have to go south as soon as possible. I'm not sure about the character of this merman." She The analysis said, "If you don't leave now, you may not be able to leave later."
She didn't know what kind of feelings this merman had towards her past self, but judging from his various actions, this merman should be an extremely strong person. Once he finds out that she has the slightest connection with her in the past, he will definitely not let her leave.
It is possible to be imprisoned for a lifetime.
She hasn't seen enough of this world yet, but she doesn't want to be imprisoned in this bitter cold for a lifetime, just staring at that merman's face with no hope.
Although... that face is also quite beautiful. In other words, it was the most beautiful face she had ever seen in the world.
"You have to go." Lu Jinyan took A Ji's words and interrupted her reverie, "But I still have to stay in the north, although this mermaid... It's different from what I thought at first, but my companion We're all here, and I can't leave."
"Well, alright, let's leave it now, Ji Ning and I will leave the Demon-Controlling Platform in a while." After speaking, A Ji stared at Ji Ning and said, "How about you? After leaving the North, where are you going? "
"Me?" Ji Ning, who had just woken up, was silent for a moment, then finally lowered his head and whispered, "I still have to go back to the National Teacher's Mansion, my master is still in the National Teacher's Mansion..." His voice became smaller and smaller, he thought, in the world In his eyes, the people of the National Teacher's House are already notorious, and he is afraid that A Ji will look down on him...
But A Ji only nodded, and said naturally: "Okay, on the way south, I will take you to the station closest to the capital."
Ji Ning was stunned, staring at A Ji in disbelief, then pursed her lips and clenched her fists.
A Ji didn't pay attention to Ji Ning's expression, the two of them grabbed the food, said goodbye to Lu Jinyan, and took Ji Ning to the city gate that left Yaoyutai.
Before the two of them reached the city gate, Aji began to notice that someone was following them. Different from the sneaky follower, when she turned her head, she saw two men in black clothes and knives standing behind them. Continuing to walk forward, there was another sharp turn around. The two of them were still following behind them step by step, with no intention of avoiding them at all. Standing in the back, they stared at them without shyness.
It's also true that this is the place of the merman. The merman can do whatever he wants. He sends people to follow them. I'm afraid there will be no one in the city to stop them.
A Ji was a little worried and panicked in his heart, but he still held the mentality of luck and ran to the city gate. The result was as expected. As soon as he arrived at the city gate, he took a step into the door, and the two men in black walked up from behind. Come and stand in front of the two of them.
"You two, you are not allowed to leave the North Territory yet."
Ji Ning was a little panicked: "But... but the merman... no... your honorable lord said to let us go."
Before the two could talk, Aji took over and said, "I didn't say let us go."
The two said, "Exactly."
Ji Ning was in a hurry, A Ji patted him on the shoulder to appease him, then glanced at the two of them, "Okay, if we don't leave, we will stay in the north." After speaking, she turned around calmly. , a scooter with hay passed by, and A Ji smashed the hay with lightning speed, and the hay flew all over the sky in an instant, confusing people's eyes, and the narrow gate of the city was suddenly chaotic. In a circle, A Ji picked up Ji Ning's collar, jumped up, and disappeared in an instant.
The two men in black cloth patted the hay on their bodies, looked at each other, one chased outside the city, and the other chased inside the city.
In fact, A Ji didn't run very far. She only took Ji Ning to hide behind a stable next to the city gate. Without giving Ji Ning a chance to react, she couldn't help but take the mud on the ground and wiped Ji Ning's face.
"This is... wait... ugh... my clothes!"
"Don't be noisy!" A Ji took off Ji Ning's clothes, looked left and right, picked up a piece of rag on the ground, and surrounded him, "You pretend to be a beggar, I'll pretend to be your sister, let's get out of town together. go."
"My sister?" Ji Ning couldn't believe it, "Why..." Before he could finish his sentence, he wiped the mud from his eyes, turned to look at A Ji, and was instantly stunned: "You... you are A Ji. Ji?" He was shocked and almost jumped up, "You're a woman!?"
A Ji used the face with the first tail, which is a thin woman. Her figure is completely different from just now, as if she was a different person.
"you you you… "
"I'm a fox demon, and a fox demon can change its face, haven't you heard of it?"
After Ji Ning heard this, she calmed down a little: "Listen... I've heard... I haven't seen anyone change on the spot..."
"You've seen it now, come here, don't delay, get up." A Ji pulled Ji Ning up and dragged him forward, but Ji Ning still didn't respond when she saw A Ji, and muttered: "That's true You...are you a man or a woman?"
"Does it matter?" A Ji glanced back at him, then turned around again, but suddenly bumped into someone's chest.
As soon as Aji smelled the fragrant fragrance of the person who came, she was shocked. She raised her head, silver hair and blue eyes, it was this merman again...
Why is he everywhere... He's not a mermaid, he's a ghost, right
Aji gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and tried to fool himself as if he didn't see it.
But it's not that easy. The snow on the mud in front of him turned into ice, and the snow on the mud instantly turned into an ice cone, pointing straight at A Ji. A Ji paused, pinched the spell in his hand, and turned back into a man again.
She took a deep breath, turned her head, and planned to face the merman.
"Honored lord." She stared at Changyi's blue pupils and said, "We were brought to the north in a daze, and we didn't do anything wrong. It doesn't make sense for you to not let us leave."
Changyi listened to her words, but did not respond to her immediately. Those blue eyes looked at her quietly, and finally asked an irrelevant question: "How many faces do you have?"
A Ji was startled, but his face remained calm: "Four." She said, "Four tails and four faces."
"Four tails?" Changyi's eyes narrowed slightly, and suddenly, the cold wind suddenly blew up beside him, and A Ji felt that the ice cone made of ice and snow on his side suddenly floated up, pointing directly at her with a huge murderous aura.
The fierce murderous aura made A Ji's body tense instantly. Out of her own protection, the demon power and the power of the demon master in her blood were almost instantly awakened.
Ji Ning, who was beside him, was so frightened by this murderous intent that his face was pale and he could hardly stand still.
A Ji and Chang Yi stared at each other, and suddenly, the ice pick moved and stabbed at A Ji.
With a sound of "keng", the ice pick was blocked by a layer of black demonic aura, but the ice pick still pierced into the once-protected tip of the ice pick, with only a tiny distance left, and it was about to pierce the skin between Aji's throat.
Chang Yi turned his eyes and looked behind A Ji, where there were only four black tails.
At that moment, he attacked with the aim of killing A Ji, but there was no time left for A Ji to think. Therefore, when A Ji resisted at that moment, unless she did not want to live, she would not fail to do her best.
But, only four tails...
With a wave of Chang Yi's hand, the ice cone turned into snow, rustled down, and landed on the ground again.
A Ji also looked at Chang Yi, and seemed to be frightened. His breath was still a little disordered, and his face was a little pale.
Chang Yi glanced at her and walked away.
"Wait." A Ji's breathless voice came from behind. She said, "Can we leave the North now?"
"No." Without any hesitation, he said, "In the North City, you can move on your own."
"Why?" A Ji was not reconciled, "You must have a reason for detaining us, right?"
Only then did Chang Yi turn his face slightly, but said: "He is a disciple of the National Teacher's Mansion. Do you need any reason to detain him in the North?"
A Ji laughed angrily, and really began to be more serious, "That's right, he's a disciple of the National Teacher's House, but I'm not. You always need a reason to hold me!"
Ji Ning's heart froze when she heard her words, so she could only say weakly, "You can't say that..."
But at this time, the two people in front didn't pay him any attention at all. Chang Yi was silent for a moment, then only said: "You are with the disciples of the National Teacher's Mansion, and your behavior is suspicious. It's normal to arrest you." After speaking, he didn't want to talk any more, and walked away. As soon as he left, several people in black clothes gathered around the stable, and everyone looked at her. Don't arrest her, don't scold her, just monitor her.
A Ji looked at the figure of Chang Yi drifting away, and then looked at the man in ink in front of him. He opened his mouth and muttered a few words. He had to bring Ji Ning under the surveillance of everyone, and then returned to the snake demon. The inn for them.
When they got to the inn room, Ji Ning dared to whisper: "In order to force out how many tails you have, I almost killed you... Hey... This mermaid is really more violent than the national teacher."
A Ji glanced at Ji Ning, but did not answer.
The mermaid's blow just now, no matter who it is, is going to kill her, including her. After all, from a logical point of view, if she is the person he wants to find, she will definitely be able to block the attack of the merman, and if she is not, it is okay to kill her.
So life and death are really only on the line, she just took a gamble, and finally won the gamble.
"Is it any use to say this?" A Ji said, "I think there is a way to leave the North after thinking about it."
…
The bright moon is in the sky, above the ice lake, the silver-haired man stands quietly. After a while, he leaned down and placed his palm on the ice surface. The blue magic spell in his palm turned, and under the ice surface, there was a slight blue light in the clear but deep lake water. It seems to be responding to him from a distance.
He hadn't stepped into the lake, but his pupils seemed to have penetrated the darkness under the ice, and he saw the frozen man at the bottom.
In the cold ice, the person lying still has eyebrows like yesterday, and the roots of the eyelashes are clear, as if they can open their eyes with trembling.
As if being stabbed somewhere in the heart, Chang Yi's technique suddenly stopped.
This is the first time he has come to see her since he frozen Ji Yunhe. He closed his eyes, knelt on one knee on the ice, the mountains and rivers were silent, and he was also dead silent.
After Bai Xue had already covered his shoulders, he mumbled, "It's not you..."
I don't know Xueluo for a long time, almost buried him in it. At this moment, there was a footstep in the distance. It shocked the long meaning like a stone statue.
Chang Yi turned his head and looked at the person who came.
"Empty."
"I didn't find you in the temple, I guess you will be here, and you are."
Only then did Chang Yi stand up, and the snow on his body fell. He asked Kongming, "I thought it would take some time for you to come back from the south."
"Along the way, all the children who were poisoned by the frost poison were saved, but none of them could be saved completely." Kong Ming shook his head and sighed, "Shunde's move caused a lot of indignation among the people, and they defected to the north. There are more and more people, and even the country is shaken. I am afraid that the Great Chen Kingdom will perish. I think the northern border should be busier and more busy, so I came back."
Chang Yi nodded, walked over the ice on the lake with him, and walked back.
On the way, Kong Ming said again: "On the way back, I heard some interesting news."
"what?"
"Qingluan, who has been away from the north for a long time, turned out to be going to the Valley of the Demons in the south."
Long Yi paused: "The Valley of the Demons? What is she doing in the Valley of the Demons?"
"No one knows about this." Kong Ming said, "Now, most of the demon masters in the four demon control land have descended to the north, and the others are running around. After making a decoration, Qingluan now, as a monster, lives in the Valley of Monster Control. Heh..." Kongming smiled sarcastically, "Perhaps, he wanted to study and research the Ten Square Formation that has trapped him for hundreds of years. "
Changyi pondered for a moment: "Where is the Great National Teacher? We used Qingluan to lead the Great National Teacher to leave the capital. It can be seen that he attaches great importance to Qingluan. Now that you know the news that Qingluan is in Yaoyu Valley, he must also know. Why didn't you go?"
Kong Ming turned his eyes and glanced at Chang Yi: "Shunde's face has not been completely cured, he will not go anywhere."
Chang Yi was silent for a moment: "His preferences are really weird."
"Who's not?" Kong Ming glanced at Chang Yi, "I heard that you asked people to watch the fox demon that I sent to the north when there were not enough people in the north?"
Long Yi was silent.
"Because he is similar to Ji Yunhe?"
Chang Yi looked at Kong Ming: "Do you think so too?"
"There are not many black fox demons. Although I have only one acquaintance with him, the expression in his eyes will really remind me of such a person, and I am afraid that Luo Jinsang, a heartless girl, can't see it. But you Don't think too much, I have taken his pulse, only demon energy, no demon master power, he is just an ordinary fox demon."
"He can change magic."
"The art of transformation can change the appearance, but it can't change the blood of the body. Changyi, you came here today, don't you just want to confirm that the people in the lake are still there?"
Chang Yi took a deep breath, and looked into the distance, the mountains in the distance were covered with snow, and the sound of the wind in the vicinity was quiet, just like his voice and tone were lonely.
"Yes, she is dead."
