042 “Blessing from Heavenly Official” Chapter 41
by☆、Chapter 41 Ji Lefang brings you to ask about Xianle 3
White without form.The source of the plague.An ominous symbol.
This “Jue” wears snow-white mourning clothes all year round, holds a soul-calling flag, and wears a crying and laughing mask on his face.The so-called crying and laughing mask means that half of the face is crying and half of the face is smiling. It is not known whether it is crying or laughing.Whenever you see him somewhere, it means that people will die soon in this place and the world will be in chaos.
Xie Lian still remembers the first time he saw Bai Wuxiang.He stood on the tower of Xianle Imperial City, looking down blankly with his face covered in black dust and tears.In the blurry field of vision, there was only a white figure standing among the corpses outside the city, with big sleeves fluttering, extremely clear.Xie Lian looked down at him, and the white ghost also raised his head, looked at Xie Lian, and waved to him.
That crying and laughing mask is Xie Lian’s nightmare that still lingers hundreds of years later.
Later, others commented on Bai Wuxiang that “white clothes bring disaster to the world”.He was the nightmare of the previous generation of gods and gods before Xueyu Tanhua was born.If Jun Wu hadn’t killed him personally, I’m afraid this nightmare would have continued to this day.
However, Yingying didn’t seem to know who “Bai Wuxiang” was, and just looked at Xie Lian in confusion.I don’t know if I didn’t understand it or if I didn’t get the number right.After a while, he suddenly shouted “Ah!”. It turned out that Xie Lian had unknowingly grabbed his shoulder and held it hard.As soon as he shouted, Xie Lian came back to his senses, quickly let go and said: “I’m sorry.”
Yingying had never received any kind of beating, it was just a pinch, it was nothing, and she shook her head.Xie Lian said again: “I’m sorry.”
Huacheng said in a deep voice: “You are too tired, please rest first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, two girls came in through a small door on the side of the hall, wanting to take the young man away.Xie Lian didn’t know what they were going to do, but Huacheng said: “Don’t worry. I just take him down to wash him, change his clothes, treat his wounds, and look like a good person.”
The young man was dirty and miserable, and there must have been many other wounds on his body.Xie Lian calmed down slightly and said: “Okay. I’m done.” The two girls then stepped forward and took the people down.Ying turned around frequently and said thankfully: “It’s okay, I’ll find you later.”
After the young man was taken away, Huacheng turned to him and said, “Sit down and rest first. Don’t see him for the time being. If you want to ask anything, I will pry his mouth open.”
Xie Lian heard him say “pry open his mouth” and felt that this wording was a bit scary, and said: “No need. If he can’t say anything, forget it. Take your time.”
Huacheng sat next to him and said, “What are you going to do with this young man?”
Xie Lian’s face showed a tired look, and after thinking for a while, he said: “I think, let’s keep him by our side first and take him with us.”
Huacheng looked like he didn’t agree with it, and said: “You might as well leave him in the ghost market. I don’t have a mouth for him to eat here.”
Xie Lian stared at him and said sincerely: “Sanlang, thank you very much. But…” he sighed, “I said I would take him with me, but there is still a lot to do.”
Yingying’s appearance is appalling, she has no skills, and she can’t even speak clearly.The ghost market is indeed the territory of Huacheng. If he is willing to protect it, no one can hurt the young man and he will not be hungry.But apart from that, the most important thing is to slowly guide this young man and sort out his mind and speech so that he can look normal.Although the ghost market is lively, there are a lot of demons dancing around and a mixture of fish and dragons, which is not suitable for this.Apart from himself, Xie Lian really couldn’t think of anyone else who would be willing to spend a lot of patience to guide this young man.
Xie Lian said slowly: “I am very grateful to you for helping me find this young man. Now that I have found him, I can no longer trouble you with the next thing.”
Huacheng still seemed to disagree, but said no more and said softly: “It’s no trouble. When you’re here with me, just tell me what you need, and you can go wherever you want.”
Speaking of “Go wherever you want,” Xie Lian suddenly thought of Lang Qianqiu and Shi Qingxuan who had just participated in a gang fight on the street, and said: “His Royal Highness Taihua is still here with you, why don’t I let him leave first.” To be honest, if Lang Qianqiu can’t show his body here, he probably won’t be of much help.
Huacheng said: “Whatever. I don’t care about him.”
Xie Lian was always a little curious, so he still asked, “There are priests wandering around in your realm, and you don’t care?” Is Huacheng really so confident?
Huacheng smiled and said: “You don’t know this. Brother, although everyone in the three realms says that my place is a turbid hell with a lot of demons dancing around, in fact, everyone wants to come and have a look. It’s the many priests in your heaven who pretend to be dismissive and despise it on the surface, but they come here in disguise to do whatever they do in private. I’ve seen a lot. I don’t care if I don’t make trouble. It’s just right to make trouble, but they crossed the line first.”
When he said the last sentence, Xie Lian suddenly felt that there seemed to be something strange about the scimitar on his waist, and he couldn’t help but take a closer look.This sight was surprising.
It turned out that there was a silver eye carved on the handle of this scimitar.
The pattern on this eye is just composed of a few silver lines. However, although it is simple, it is extremely expressive, as if it is alive.He didn’t see it originally because the eye was closed and formed a thin line.At this time, it opened its eyes, turned around in a circle, and blinked twice.
Huacheng noticed the strange color on Xie Lian’s face, lowered his head and smiled, saying: “Are you awake?” Then, he said to Xie Lian: “Brother, this is a bad fate.”
That eye turned to Xie Lian again.I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Xie Lian felt that the silver eyes narrowed slightly.
So, he bent down and said to it: “Hello.”
Hearing his greeting, the eye narrowed even more, and the whole eye curved into an arc, as if it was smiling. The big eyeball turned left and right, very lively, as if it was not a pattern carved on the handle of a knife, but a real eye on a person’s body.The corners of Huacheng’s lips raised and he said: “Brother, it likes you.”
Xie Lian raised his head and said, “Seriously?”
Huacheng raised his eyebrows and said: “Yeah. Seriously. If it doesn’t like it, it doesn’t even bother to take a look. It’s rare for Dooming to like anyone.”
Hearing this, Xie Lian’s mood calmed down a little, and he said warmly to the misfortune: “Thank you very much.” Then he turned to Huacheng and said, “I like it quite a lot.”
Upon hearing this, the eye blinked several times in a row, hung on Huacheng’s waist, and suddenly trembled.Huacheng said righteously: “No.”
Thanks for the pity: “What’s not working?”
Huacheng said again: “No.”
Misfortune trembled wildly again, as if it wanted to come out of its sheath.Xie Lian asked curiously: “Are you saying no to it?”
Huacheng said to Xie Lian seriously: “Yes. It wants you to touch it. I said no.”
He smiled gratefully and said, “What’s wrong with that?” After saying that, he stretched out a hand.Misfortune suddenly opened his eyes wide, as if looking forward to it.Xie Lian wanted to touch this eye, but suddenly he remembered: “You can’t touch here, it will hurt if you poke the eye.” He lowered his hand, followed the curvature of the scabbard, and touched it twice.As a result, that eye was completely narrowed to a slit, and it shook even more violently.
Xie Lian felt very strange while touching it.His physique is quite popular with animals. He used to touch some fluffy cats and dogs, and they felt comfortable, so they just squinted their eyes and kept crawling into his arms.Unexpectedly, touching a cold silver scimitar now feels exactly the same as touching a dog, which is strange.
After letting him touch it for a while, Huacheng stood up with a smile and said to He Ming: “Okay, come back after you finish the work.” Then he said to Xie Lian, “Brother, rest here. I’ll go take care of some small things. I’ll be back soon.”
Xie Lian then realized that he might have just opened his eyes to warn Hua Cheng.He thought to himself: “Could it be Master Feng Master and Qianqiu who showed up in the ghost market?” He also wanted to get up and said, “I’ll go and have a look too.”
Huacheng gently pressed him back and said: “Don’t worry, it’s not His Highness Taihua, just a few trash, just Yue Chang. You don’t have to go.”
Since he said this, Xie Lian had no choice but to go with him.Huacheng turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall. With a wave of his hand from a distance, the bead curtains automatically parted to both sides.When he went out, the curtains of pearls and jade clattered shut again, making a crisp sound.
Xie Lian sat on the dark jade couch for a moment. Remembering that the young man was afraid of strangers, and because he was calm at the moment, he decided to go take a look.He stood up, passed through the small door through which the two girls had exited, and saw a flower garden.The vermilion corridors in the flower garden were interspersed with no one. Xie Lian was thinking about where to go when he saw a black figure hurriedly flash past.
That figure from behind was the masked young man who had just brought Ying over.Xie Lian thought of the cursed shackle on his wrist and was still quite concerned about it. Just as he was about to call out to the other party, the back figure had disappeared.Looking back at this man’s movements, he seemed to be afraid of being discovered.Xie Lian closed his mouth and followed silently.
Going around the corner where the man disappeared, Xie Lian leaned against the corner and looked quietly. As expected, the man moved very fast and paid attention to the front, back and left. It seemed that he was indeed very vigilant and did not want to be discovered.Xie Lian thought to himself: “This person should be Sanlang’s subordinate, and he is acting in Sanlang’s place, so why is he so sneaky?”
The more he behaved like this, the more Xie Lian felt that this person might have bad intentions, so he hid his figure and followed him.The masked man turned around, Xie Lian was always following him three to four feet behind, holding his breath and concentrating.Turning into a long corridor, at the end of the corridor was a gorgeous door. Xie Lian followed and thought to himself: “If he turns around now, there will be no place to dodge on either side.”
Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought this, he saw the masked man suddenly stopped and looked back.
When the man paused, Xie Lian felt that something was wrong.In desperation, Wei Wei raised his hand, and Ruoxie flew out, circled several times around the wooden beam above the ceiling, hoisted him up high, and stuck him to the top.
The masked man didn’t look back at anyone, and didn’t even think of raising his head to take a closer look. He finally turned around and continued moving forward.
However, Xie Lian still didn’t dare to put himself down so quickly. He maintained his position on the ceiling and moved forward lightly and silently.As I moved, I felt like a gecko.Fortunately, the masked man didn’t walk long before he stopped in front of the gorgeous door. He didn’t need to move any further and just waited to see what happened.
There is a stone statue of a graceful woman on the side of the gate of this small building. Of course, from Xie Lian’s perspective, the only things that can be seen most clearly are her round head and the round jade plate in her hand.The masked man stopped in front of the door. Instead of opening the door first, he turned to the statue of the woman, raised his hand, and threw something into the jade plate.Hearing only two crisp sounds of “ding-dong”, Xie Lian thought: “Dice?”
He had heard this voice many times just now, and he would probably not forget it for a long time.It was the sound of the dice falling on the chassis.As expected, the masked man moved his hand and took a look inside.In the jade plate, there are exactly two dices, both with bright red six points.
After throwing the dice, the masked man put away the dice and opened the door.The door was unlocked.After he entered, he just closed the door. Xie Lian did not hear the sound of locking or bolting.After waiting for a moment, he floated to the ground like a piece of paper, folded his arms and studied the door.
Logically speaking, this room doesn’t look big, so there should be some sounds coming out of whatever the masked man did inside.However, after he went in and closed the door, there was no sound at all in the room.Xie Lian thought for a moment and raised his hand to push.
Sure enough, after opening the door, there was no one in the room. There was only a table and two chairs. It looked like an ordinary and gorgeous small room.The furnishings in the house are clearly visible, and there is absolutely no possibility of a hidden passage.
Xie Lian closed the door and looked thoughtfully at the stone statue of the maid aside. After a moment, her eyes turned to the jade plate in her hand.
It seems that the mystery lies in this jade plate and the two dice.
Xie Lian thought to himself: “This house is still locked, but it is not a real lock, but a magic lock. To open this lock, you need a key, or a password to pass the customs. You need to use the dice to throw two ‘six’s’ on the plate, and you will see the real destination after opening the door.”
However, if he were to throw two “sixes” on the spot, this would be absolutely impossible in the world.Xie Lian could only look at the house and sigh, wandering in front of the door for a while, then walked back.After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped and thought to himself: “How did I get here???”
Ji Lefang was already big, so he followed the masked man around and around for a long time, and he actually fainted.After walking around for a while, he didn’t meet anyone. Just when he was about to sit down and think for a moment, a tall man in red walked towards him.
