The Empress suddenly disappeared from the palace, and there was another dramatic change in the Valley of Flowers. The courtiers and people of the Kingdom of Flowers rushed outside the Valley of Flowers, not knowing what happened inside, let alone the giant tree being safe.
Too many things have happened recently, making people panic. When someone was about to enter, they saw a huge shadow coming out of the valley. Everyone held their breath and looked intently, and suddenly saw a cyan dragon passing by, and a girl jumped off the dragon's back with a person on her back.
The face of the unconscious man was somehow ruined, his flesh was blurred, and he seemed to be dead.
Xifeng looked at the crowd with the Empress behind her back and said, "She is the Empress."
The face of the empress... No, it should be said that Zhong Ning's face was ruined by the banshee.
The face that has been corroded by the evil energy is put on the medicine, like flour hitting the face, it is three thick layers, and even half an inch of flesh can not be seen.
Although the exchange between her and Zhong Ning was not a problem, the Empress still explained the matter to the people, why the Banshee came, why she opened the door to the country, and the fact that the giant tree did not bloom this year.
The disturbed people's hearts were finally appeased at this moment - the Empress did not abandon the country, she was always there, guarding the country.
I don't know how the empress explained to the people, Xifeng sat on the shore without worry, watching the sea where the sun was setting again, and it felt so good that the dust had settled.
She was not at all worried that the Empress would not be able to explain clearly, she was a courageous woman, and Xifeng believed that she could handle these matters properly.
"West wind."
Qing Yuan came from behind, looked at the rock surface, it was still clean, then sat down and stuffed a bunch of... grass into her arms.
Xifeng couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Why? Where did someone send the girl a bunch of grass?"
"This is not grass, it is medicine." Qing Yuan said, "Your injury is very special, non-spiritual power can be restored, so I asked the girl here and found this herb."
"... How can I use it if I don't smash it." Xifeng was angry and amused, "My injury is already healed, I don't need it."
Qing Yuan paused for a while, grabbed her hand to see, the wound on her wrist that was cut by the sword was really gone and healed completely. And the broken bones are all right.
Xifeng retracted his hand, tucked his knees and hid under his body, and said lazily, "Don't ask me, don't ask me anything."
"I don't ask." Qing Yuan stroked her head, looked at her with a lonely expression, and said, "Then let me hug you, okay?"
Xifeng paused and subconsciously resisted, "No."
"No." Qing Yuan stubbornly went against her words and reached out to hug her.
Xifeng buried her face in front of his chest, and the grass on her body rolled on the rocks. She grabbed Qingyuan's clothes and was speechless for a long time.
This time, Qing Yuan finally didn't have to hold her tightly.
Her breasts can finally be saved.
However, Jin Chanyi couldn't come back.
The more Xifeng thought about it, the more sad he became, clutching his clothes tightly, tears streaming down his face. At first, it was silent tears, and finally "wow" cried out, crying into tears in his arms.
"If I were more powerful, I could kill him... I could kill him..."
She is not reconciled, not reconciled.
"Why don't I be cruel and die with him... I'm a coward, a coward!"
"What kind of bag is a coward?"
"…Don't talk."
Qing Yuan lowered his body and hugged her, wrapping her whole body into his arms. Xifeng loves face very much, don't let others hear her cry, don't let others see her cry.
Xifeng suddenly sat up and said angrily, "Don't give me grass any more in the future, give me flowers, give me flowers!"
"But didn't you say that you are not allowed to give flowers to other girls?"
"But I'm not another girl!"
After Xifeng roared, he always felt that the meaning of the words seemed too straightforward. Shouldn't he think she's frivolous, shouldn't he be ashamed of her.
Qing Yuan wiped away the tears on her cheeks and said, "Okay, if you like flowers, I will give them to you. Whatever you like, I will give you everything."
"What about the gold?"
"This does not."
"..." Then what else is there to talk about!
Xifeng wiped away the remaining tears, not wanting to turn into a crying bag after becoming a coward, she stood up and said, "The Empress said that she will give us a boat ready to go to sea, let's go and see."
She was already up, but Qing Yuan didn't move. Xifeng reached out to him, only to find that his face was pale. He was about to stand up when he saw Xifeng sit down again, took his hand and said, "I still seem a little tired, let's sit for a while."
"Yeah." Qing Yuan, who was still feeling unwell, had no objection. After sitting for a while, he would be able to recover more physical strength. Seeing that the west wind was picking up the herbs scattered on the rocks one by one, he asked, "What are you doing?"
"You gave me this, I have to take a good look at it."
"But it's not a flower."
"That's what you sent it too."
Qing Yuan looked at the ugly pile of grass, and had no idea why Xi Feng was so happy.
Sitting next to him, Xifeng carefully picked up these herbs, wrapped them with thin vines, and wrapped them into a bunch of "flowers", which became much more beautiful.
"You two are really interested."
Xifeng looked back, saw the person who came, and said with a smile, "Shenjun Baili, have you come out of the palace?"
"Yeah." Baili Qingfeng walked to the rock, overlooking the sea reddened by the sunset, and sighed, "It's still a beautiful sea like this."
"What is God Lord Baili doing here?"
"The Empress asked me to speak, saying that she has prepared the ship and can send us away at any time."
"So soon?" Xifeng said in surprise, "Is everything in the country of flowers settled?"
"Yes, swift and resolute, as expected of the eight hundredth little fairy that I like." Baili Qingfeng said in pain, "However, we will leave in the end."
He didn't want to stay here, but he couldn't kidnap the empress, so he had to say goodbye.
Qing Yuan said: "If your friends don't cry, there will be the eight hundred and one little fairy."
Xifeng has nothing to say to Baili Shenjun, who is always empathetic, and it is better to say that he appreciates it instead of liking it.
Baili Qingfeng said again: "Miss Xifeng, can I ask you one thing?"
"God, please speak."
"Can you help me give this elixir to the empress, and the elixir can restore her appearance, and it's also a gift from me."
"Why don't you give it to her yourself?"
"I don't want her to feel that I owe me favor." Baili Qingfeng said again, "Please, leave it to her now."
Xifeng nodded clearly, put away the spirit pill, took a bunch of grass that Qingyuan had given her and went down from the low cliff, and waved to them: "I'll call you to take the boat later, it's not too late."
"it is good-"
Baili Qingfeng waved at her to reassure her, but before he put his hand down, he heard someone behind him ask, "Why do you want to let West Wind go?"
He paused for a while, then turned to look at his friend, his expression slightly condensed, and said, "What kind of evil is Xifeng?"
Qing Yuan suddenly looked up at him and asked, "Friend, what is evil? Those who do evil are called evil, aren't they? But Xifeng didn't. She didn't hurt anyone. You can't call her evil."
Baili Qingfeng was silent and said, "Okay, I won't call her evil, but she is definitely not a mortal."
"Xifeng is indeed not an ordinary person."
Baili Qingfeng saw that he was speaking lightly, frowned and said, "You can't be with her, go back to the realm of the gods, my friend."
"Can't."
"why?"
Qing Yuan retracted his gaze, it was too tiring to look at people like this, probably because the words were too tiring. He said, "I don't know, I just don't want to leave her. She didn't do anything wrong, and people in the Six Realms are no different."
"We are different!"
"What's the difference, is it that the demon has one more mouth, or the demon has one leg missing, or is the god two heads? We are the same, we are all the same."
"You..." Baili Qingfeng was annoyed, "Do you think it's good to do this? No! You will not only harm yourself, but also the west wind. The God Realm will let you go, but it will never let her go. They As soon as they put their guard down on you, you look for an evil... Find a girl who doesn't know if she is a demon or a demon, what will they think? Don't forget, you also have a younger brother of the demon king!"
"No." Qing Yuan frowned and said, "Xifeng did nothing wrong, even if she is a monster, it was given by her parents, not her own desire to be a monster. Little Fatty's younger brother should really fight, he let the monsters live in the world It's not right to run around and do bad things."
Baili Qingfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly: "How do you know that she doesn't want to be a magical monster, but is willing to be a mortal."
Qing Yuan shook his head and said, "Gods, demons and demons don't need to work hard to make money. They live in the wind and live in the open. But Xifeng is very happy. She likes the mortal world. She wants to be a mortal, I know."
She said more than once that she liked the mortal world, she said more than once that she was mortal. He didn't want to know what she was in the past, but he knew that Xifeng preferred to be a comfortable and ordinary mortal rather than a powerful demon.
The first time he saw her, he knew that she was not a mortal person, but no matter what realm he was from, as long as he didn't have bad intentions, it was fine. The gods and demons have no division, and now the six realms have no division.
It's just that some people have to be clear about it.
It seems that once it is overstepped, the Six Realms will be in chaos.
Baili Qingfeng sighed and said, "Aside from Miss Xifeng, about the banshee, you have to go back to Jiuxiao and talk to the emperors."
Qing Yuan didn't want to go back at all, and asked, "Can't you go and say it?"
"Probably not."
"Then wait, wait until I send West Wind ashore before leaving."
Baili Qingfeng said helplessly: "I can't tell, can I still kidnap you?" Of course not, so I had to wait.
At this time, the west wind was already beckoning to them from under the low cliff, calling that the boat was ready and letting them down. Qing Yuan stood up slowly, and waved his hand to the jumping and joyful West Wind.
Baili Qingfeng also waved his hand and said, "Xifeng is a bright girl. I like her too, but it's different after all. Friends, do you understand?"
"I don't understand." Qing Yuan stood on the edge of the rock and said again, "My friend, you don't call her sister-in-law anymore."
After all, he had already flown towards the west wind, leaving only Baili Qingfeng standing alone on the edge of the cliff. He shouted at the willful back: "Sister-in-law, are you going to give me New Year's money for the New Year!"
He didn't believe that these two stingy people would give it to him!
The west wind was far away, and he could feel Baili Qingfeng shouting loudly from above, but he couldn't hear it clearly. She turned her ears and listened, but couldn't hear it. Seeing Qing Yuan falling to the side, she pulled his hand and said, "What is the Lord Baili shouting?"
Qing Yuan tilted his head and listened, and said, "You don't spit out grape skins when you eat grapes, and you spit out grape skins if you don't eat grapes."
"..." Xifeng didn't believe him, but she probably said something about the God Realm, she stopped asking, took his hand and walked to the place where the boat docked, "The Empress is waiting for us there, saying that she will send us a Procedure."
It was the ship that took them back. It's just that there were thousands of people when they came, but now there are only a few.
On the boat, both the cabin and the deck were empty, not as lively as when they came.
Standing at the stern of the boat, Xifeng looked at the island that was about to go away, and was filled with emotion.
The footsteps behind were steady and powerful, walking slowly, stopped beside her, and looked at the small island wrapped in the sunset with her, and said, "The country of flowers is beautiful."
Xifeng smiled and said, "As a monarch, it doesn't seem very good to be proud of yourself."
The face of the Empress... No, Zhong Ning's face has been restored, the elixir of Jiuxiao Shenjun is very useful, not only the face, but also the skin that has been corroded by evil qi has been restored.
"The Land of Flowers is indeed beautiful. It is a fairyland on earth." Baili Qingfeng said with emotion, "The first monarch must be a strange woman, with such courage and so many girls to settle down here."
"Well." The Empress stood with her hands behind her back, and said again, "Thank you for your elixir."
"You're welcome."
Baili Qingfeng complied, and suddenly paused, she knew it was him? Then... He immediately looked at Xifeng, who blinked his eyes and said a few words to him. He thought for a moment, his face darkened - remember to give me the money.
Why did he give her money, he hasn't settled with her yet!
He coughed lightly, and said uncomfortably, "Hands up..."
The Empress saw that the more he talked and the more she stepped back, she disappeared after a while, frowned slightly, and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Xifeng said: "I'm sorry." Fortunately, he also claimed to have liked 800 little fairies, but he was actually the same as Qingyuan, and he didn't even hold the girl's little hand. No, Qing Yuan at least held her little hand.
The Empress retracted her gaze and said, "You really don't want those ten boxes of gold and silver? Although it was promised by the Banshee, I can also afford it."
"No need."
"You saved our flower country, you deserve it."
Xifeng smiled: "The one who saves the flower country is you. If it wasn't for your last sword, the banshee would not have left the flower tree."
The Empress didn't take credit, she just said, "Don't you think you've come in vain?"
"It's not in vain, at least I saw the legendary country of flowers, and the legendary... Empress." Xifeng raised his right hand and looked at the gold bracelet on his wrist, "And look, I still have at least one. Gold bracelet, you can buy a lot of meat buns."
The Empress was silent for a moment, and finally smiled, like an iceberg melting into water, and saw Chunjing: "Okay, if you want to come to the Land of Flowers in the future, you can come anytime."
The distant island suddenly burst into light, and even those who were far away from the island were dazzled by the strong light.
The two looked over there at the same time, and saw a towering giant tree standing on the island, with leaves like lamps, suddenly flying towards the coast. Like a bunch of fireworks, it bloomed in the sky and rolled back to the world.
The bunch of "fireworks" flew away for a full moment, and then gradually subsided.
The Empress frowned and looked at the flying beams, but she didn't know what they were. Xifeng didn't know either, but far away on the sea, she could smell the fragrance of flowers. She hurriedly opened her eyes to look in the direction of the giant tree, and when she looked at it, she saw that the giant tree was already luxuriant, with branches and branches, dotted with buds.
"When you return, maybe the tree of flowers will bloom."
The Empress was stunned, looking at the only island in the sea, she couldn't see the tree, but she could imagine how magnificent and beautiful the mother tree full of flowers was.
The sea on which the boat was traveling was calm, and something in the distance set off waves, looking dangerous.
Yue'er, who was fishing, squinted her eyes and immediately stood up and said, "The sea monster has appeared again, let's go grab some snacks to eat!"
Xiaohuo squinted at it, holding the fishing rod and said, "I just eat fish."
"Then I'll catch it back for you to eat." After Yue'er said, she turned into a cloud of black mist and flew towards the sea monster coveting the big ship.
It didn't take long for a bigger wave to rise on the sea in the distance, and after a while, it was quiet.
Xifeng leaned on the railing and said, "That's right, Xiaohuo, there is a girl to take care of you."
The fishing rod in Xiaohuo's hand shook: "I wouldn't ask a little girl to support me."
"Ke Yue'er really wants to support you." Xifeng smiled, "If not, you can be her big monster."
"...You actually abandoned me! Xifeng, you bastard!" Xiaohuo dropped the fishing rod, ran to Qingyuan's shoulder, pointed at Xifeng and said, "Lord Qinglong, Xifeng said she wanted to give you to the sea monster to eat."
Qing Yuan's dark eyebrows gradually closed, and he asked, "Which sea monster would be so obsessed with it?"
Xifeng burst into laughter, so angry that Xiaohuo jumped off his shoulders. He didn't want to talk to them anymore. If he didn't speak according to common sense, he was going to be pissed off.
"boom-"
The waves flew high and rushed over the guardrail. Yue'er grabbed the two long whiskers of the sea monster and jumped onto the railing, causing the ship to shake.
Xifeng grabbed Qing Yuan's arm and steadied his footsteps, and said with a smile, "Yue'er really brought some snacks to Xiaohuo."
Before Xiaohuo could refute, Yue'er said, "That's not the case." She tugged at the sea monster's long beard and said, "I ate one when I came here, and it was full of evil spirits, but the one I caught now doesn't look good. That evil spirit... Yes, it's exactly the same as the aura on that banshee, and it's gone now."
Qing Yuan said: "They were demonized by the banshee, and when the banshee died, they returned to their original state."
The Empress also said: "Ordinary sea monsters never attack ships. Sometimes the wind and waves are too strong, and they will escort us. It seems that it is because of the banshee."
"Then I'll let them go." Yue'er let go of his claws, and the sea monster immediately returned to the bottom of the sea. It shouted at them, "I'm sorry, I will never eat you again in the future."
It is gluttonous, but never eats good dim sum. It's a pity to let such a fat sea monster escape. It licked its lips, and in a moment a large fish was pushed in front of it, pushing it so hard that it poked it in the face.
"Hey, let me feed you."
Yue'er hugged the fish head and tilted her head and asked, "Have you eaten?"
"Eat, when you went to catch the sea monster, I ate three."
Xifeng looked down at Xiaohuo, who was lying. The advantage of red hair was that he couldn't see even if he blushes. She smiled and hugged Qing Yuan's arm tightly. It was a good time to lay eggs.
After a day and a night of sailing, the ship finally reached the shore.
When Qing Yuan got off the boat, he was depressed and very sad. Seeing Xifeng uneasy, he asked in a low voice, "Uncomfortable?"
"No..." Qing Yuan said sadly, "I really won't get seasick."
"..." Xifeng let go angrily, she would never take care of this big idiot again!
She hurried forward and walked to the side of the Empress. Seeing that she seemed to continue walking forward, she couldn't help asking, "Where are you going?"
The Empress replied, "Daily supplies."
Xifeng paused: "Wait, so you didn't send us out specially?"
The Empress smiled but said, "Little girl, you are all big people who can fly, why should we send them away. I'm just taking you along for the ride."
West Wind was surprised.
Wait a minute, the empress changed her face too fast, why did she turn into a profiteer in a blink of an eye? ?
She said angrily, "Give me my treasure chest!"
"late."
"I'm going to cry."
The Empress smiled suddenly, ignoring her cheating.
Although the face is not as good-looking as the real face of the empress in the main hall, and it is not as majestic as that face, but Zhong Ning's face, the soul of the empress, can still make outsiders feel the majesty and courage in it.
Xifeng really had no resistance to the beauty, so he had to reluctantly give up her gold.
She sighed in her heart, shook her head, and when her eyes were flying, she suddenly saw a small man walking through the crowd.
She couldn't help but be stunned.
She was not familiar with that little man, but they were almost together these two days.
"Rong Qi?"
The Empress paused and followed her line of sight. The middle-aged man was indeed Rong Qi, who had already died.
Xifeng stepped forward quickly and shouted "Rong Qi" again. Rong Qi, who was about to walk over, stopped, and when he looked back, he saw a girl with a sword, and immediately smiled: "Do you know the girl? That girl must want to buy a sword. I have good swords here, expensive and cheap, all of them. Have."
It was indeed Rong Qi who had already died. Almost all those who entered the Valley of Flowers were dead. When they left, they searched the island and found no one alive. She also looked for the trace of her brother and found that he was still alive, but not on the island.
But why did Rong Qi appear here
And seems to have lost his memory.
She suddenly thought of something, and when she looked at the lively coast, she suddenly found that there seemed to be many faces she had seen in the bustling crowd.
They were all people in the same boat with her, and there were more people she didn't know, but they all carried dry food and water on their backs.
As if to go out to sea.
But no one was on board, and they walked back and forth as if no one knew what they were here for.
She couldn't help but smile, remembering the beam of the flower tree flying towards the shore when they were on the boat just now.
The tree that was controlled by the banshee and sucked the blood of mortals. After the banshee died, the blood was still in the tree. It did not stay, but resurrected them with the power of a mother earth.
Even if she was hurt and tortured by the banshee, she could use the blood of a mortal to recover, but she still returned the blood to innocent people.
This is the difference between the god tree and the banshee.
The god tree is the real mother.
"Girl, do you really want to buy a sword?"
Xifeng smiled at the impatient man: "Don't buy it."
Rong Qi's face changed, he put away the things on his shoulders, and scolded: "Then why are you calling me, I'm sick."
The scolded Xifeng looked at Rong Qi who scolded and left, and was not angry at all. The Empress also discovered the fact of their resurrection at this time. She looked around and looked lonely: "She didn't come back to life."
Xifeng knew that she was talking about Zhong Ning, the one who dedicated her body as a container to the soul of the Empress in order to cover her departure. She thought about it and said, "She is different from others. Her soul is not eaten by trees, but destroyed by banshees, so..."
The queen nodded slightly.
She has been a monarch and minister for more than ten years, and she hopes that she can survive.
Even if she wanted her life in exchange, she was willing.
I only wish to see her smile again, standing valiantly on the high platform, her beautiful face drenched in the morning light.
Unfortunately it is no longer possible.
She was lost in her heart, and when her eyes lingered in the crowd, she saw a rickety woman standing on the shore, staring at the sea in a daze.
She was stunned for a moment, then walked quickly through the crowd and walked towards the woman.
The man had come close, but the woman still did not notice it, until she bent over to speak, and she turned her head.
"Old man, are you going to sea?"
The woman with her hunched back hesitated a little and said, "Yes..."
The Empress asked, "What are you going to do at sea?"
"Find my daughter."
"It's a coincidence, my ship is going to go to sea and can take you for a ride."
The woman looked at her in disbelief: "Really? Is what you said true?"
"Yeah." The Empress reached out to support her, to support this vicissitudes of life and tenacious mother.
The wind lifted lightly, the sleeves flew lightly, and a red cloud mark on "Zhong Ning"'s wrist fell into the woman's eyes.
The woman was stunned for a moment, and the wind and frost that had been in her eyes for more than 20 years seemed to dissipate in an instant.
Tears were sprinkled lightly, rolling down in this rolling red dust.
"Smile-"
Volume 8 The Fish in the Pond
