long night walk

Chapter 1542 Deviation

Recently, life in Xiaoshanju has become unsettled.

After Shu Ci left, the ever-burning lamp in the Spring and Autumn Palace remained on all day long, which shows that the little tiger has not passed the danger.

Although after more than half a month, Bai Lian never saw Cang Nanyi again.

But he didn't stay in the middle of the hill all the time. He also went to Wangchen Palace every day to read the "World Volume" at night, and he didn't slack off for a day.

His Royal Highness's journey to apprenticeship was very bumpy, but the hidden immortals who came from all over the mountain were able to endure and persevere, and did not leave the mountain. They just took some time off and concentrated on the Kunlun mountains and rivers.

Cang Nanyi has never left the Spring and Autumn Palace since she entered it.

The days in the mountains should have been peaceful, but across the palace wall, Bailian could feel the restlessness of the two female officials Qing Shui and Qing Xuan in recent days.

Over the past few days, Bai Lian often saw the Qingxuan female official with a forbearing and anxious expression in the Wangchen Palace, holding a book in her hand and carefully recording something with the palace people.

From that look, she seemed to be completing some big move, but the process seemed to be unexpectedly difficult and bumpy, which made her normally not serious temperament become even more unstable at this moment.

From a distance, Balian could even feel the terrifying volcanic power beneath her cold face.

Such a look is not common, even a person like Bai Lian who doesn't like to meddle in other people's business couldn't help but ask a few questions from the immortal attendant in the palace.

Only then did I learn that Qing Shui and Qing Xuan had recently been recruiting the people of Kunlun to go to the Kunlun Holy Land to collect the blood of the demon clan and open the gate to the Holy Land.

Just by asking a few words, Bailian knew that this must be for Cangnan Yi.

Judging from this appearance, it turned out that Master Qing Ao had taken care of the affairs of the defenders so neatly that Qingxuan didn't even scratch his legs.

On this day, the female officer Qingxuan went into the Wangchen Hall to get a case book. Bailian, who was sitting in front of the desk and reading, suddenly put down the "World Scroll" in his hand and raised his eyes to look at the female officer Qingxuan who was rummaging among the bookshelves. He couldn't help but remind him: "If the inference about the purple devil Gu is correct, most of the people of Kunlun in the mountains are affected by the power of knocking. If there are young purple devil Gu planted in their bodies, will it have an impact on the blood pool? "

Qingxuan, the female officer, paused while searching in her hands. She turned half of her face and looked at Bailian with a faint look: "Have you asked the other female officers in the palace about what I am doing now?"

Bai Lian laughed and said: "Master Qingxuan and Master Qingshui are acting in such a hot-tempered manner, it's hard not to know."

Qingxuan frowned and didn't care about what Balian was asking about.

After all, he had no intention of hiding this matter from other people about gathering his clansmen to jointly open the gate to the Kunlun Sanctuary. He couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.

However, she heard the euphemistic warning in Balian's words. Officer Qingxuan looked away and found the case volume she wanted to use from the bookshelf.

Holding the book in her hand, she walked down the wooden ladder, dusted off the dust on her clothes, and said calmly: "I know what you want to remind me? There is no doubt that Yan Poyun has something wrong. Those who guard The problem with the Realm One is still a mystery at the moment. Since Yan Poyun forced his way up the mountain, I immediately went to Tiangan Mountain to investigate, but I did not detect and sense the existence of purple magic Gu on anyone.

The person who did this exploratory test is my Kunlun Snow Palace medical officer, Mr. Xue He. He has superb medical skills. Looking at the entire Kunlun, no one can match him. There are not many people who can play tricks in front of him. "

Qingxuan raised his knuckles to make a beating, and said calmly: "I also tried the method Shang Chang mentioned, and there was no difference?"

Bailian looked slightly surprised and said, "Master Qingxuan, do you think Shang Chang is lying?"

Qingxuan smiled noncommittally and asked, "What do you think?"

Bailian laughed and shook his head: "If Master Qingxuan really believed that Shang Chang was lying, he would have been arrested and interrogated right now."

But she didn't do that.

After thinking about it, I felt that all the things involved were too strange. Even though there was no evidence, I did not easily vent my anger on others and make arbitrary decisions.

And looking at her appearance, her doubts about the True Immortal Sect have not been dispelled.

"I know what you are worried about, but the blood pool that opens the Kunlun Sanctuary is not an extraordinary thing. Even though I, the people of Kunlun, really planted the purple magic Gu for the True Immortal Sect in the name of knocking spirits, this will not affect me. The quality of the clan’s source blood.

If there are really Gu insect eggs in the body, they will be purified if they fall into the blood pool. After all, I opened the blood pool of my Kunlun Sanctuary and will not accept anything other than the blood of my clan. This is not necessary. Worry. "

Now they are just worried that the purple magic poison planted in the bodies of Kunlun people will grow up in an unconscious process and eat away their internal organs and brains.

But this growth process will take some time.

On the contrary, it is the matter of the empress that is urgent and cannot be delayed.

Hearing the explanation from the female officer Qingxuan, Bailian nodded in agreement, and had some understanding of her decision.

"I heard that the Kunlun Holy Domain is the only place outside the six realms that is not shackled by the laws of heaven and earth. If the queen enters it to survive the tribulation, it will definitely reduce the risk, which is also a good choice. But... "

Bailian's gaze shifted to look at the female officer Qingxuan, and asked softly: "Master Qingxuan is acting in such a big way. If the True Immortal Sect really has different intentions, aren't you worried that they will interfere with it?"

Qingxuan said: "What? Do you think that the True Immortal Sect can be so bold and want to kill gods without any taboos?"

Balian didn't refute, just looked at the other party steadily, and asked calmly: "What do you think, Master Qingxuan?"

Qingxuan was silent for a long time, then she pinched her eyebrows and said frankly: "If I really have different intentions, no matter whether I act in a big way or not, with the eyes and ears that the True Immortal Sect has set up in Kunlun Mountain for many years, I can't hide it from them at all.

In this case, it is better to ask a teacher to be famous and act more openly. Even if the True Immortal Sect wants to interfere, it has to restrain itself. "

Bailian said: "But judging from Master Qingxuan's appearance, it seems that this matter is not going well?"

Qingxuan's face froze, his brows furrowed deeper, and he looked a little worried as he lowered his eyes: "Even you can see it."

She let out a long sigh and said: "Although I know that opening the door to the Holy Realm requires only a drop of blood from the Queen, but it is actually extremely difficult for others to do this. Gathering thousands of people in Kunlun I’m afraid the power of my source blood can be compared to the powerful and precious drop of my mother’s source blood, right?”

However, Bai Lian knew that this saint's source blood was derived from the essence blood condensed from the power of faith of all living beings, and it was very rare and precious.

As believers, their blood and the blood of saints are the relationship between belief and being believed.

If the heart of faith is enough, the source blood sacrificed will become more pure and powerful.

Bai Lian knew where Qingxuan's daughter was in trouble. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, everyone in the Kunlun Mountains worshiped the saints of faith, praying in their hearts, and worshiping the saints with piety. At that time, there were no marriages in the Kunlun Mountains, and there were no other foreign races or other impurities fighting.

The power of the source blood gathered is naturally so pure and powerful that it is immeasurable.

But now, things are different than before. Even though collecting the amount of source blood is not a problem, Bailian can feel the people's hearts and minds in Kunlun Mountains are fluctuating and their beliefs are wavering.

As a result, it may still be difficult to open the door to Kunlun Sanctuary.

There was a look of worry in the eyes of Female Officer Qingxuan. She found the case book she wanted, but she didn't leave in a hurry.

Maybe it was because she was in the queen's palace, or maybe it was because it was late at night, but the sight of Bai Li'an sitting in front of the queen's desk and reading reminded her of the days when the queen and he read at night under the lamp while she served outside the palace.

Under this inexplicable feeling of nostalgia, she suddenly felt deeply tired, straightened her clothes, and sat lazily and casually on a futon in front of the case, pouring herself a cup of tea with a sad look on her face.

Upon seeing this, Balian stood up, went to the back of the bookcase and took out a jar of wine. The jar was small, carved with celadon, exquisitely and elegantly painted, and sealed with red silk.

He bent down and took the cup of tea from the hands of the female officer Qingxuan, and said with a chuckle: "It's snowy at night, can I have a couple of cups with you?"

Female officer Qingxuan watched blankly as Bai Lian turned over an empty cup, took off the red silk seal, filled the cup with wine, and pushed the cup to her hand.

She looked at Balian in shock and said, "My Lady, you actually hid wine in this palace?"

Bailian sat in front of the case, lowered his head to drink tea, smiled softly, and said: "Although your Majesty is a light drinker, she is also somewhat of a good drinker."

Qingxuan had a strange look on his face, as if he couldn't understand: "I have served the empress for more than a hundred thousand years, and I didn't know that she would hide wine in the palace. You have only been in the mountain for a long time, and you can even touch the place and habit of the empress hiding wine. So clear?”

"This is different." Balian was helpless.

"What's the difference?" Qingxuan's unwillingness started to stir again.

Bai Lian raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "It doesn't matter how long I have been here. I can sleep in your queen's bed. Can Master Qingxuan do the same?"

As soon as these words came out, Qingxuan's face turned red and her fists clenched. She sat up straight and was about to have a fit when she saw Bai Lian chuckle again.

"I'm just kidding, how could a self-disciplined and pure-hearted person like your empress do this? This wine was hidden when I went to the palace to study at night. I found that my empress had little sleep at night and could not sleep well, so I There is always a jar of wine, and she drinks a few cups, which helps her fall asleep better at night."

Under the night candle light, the young man's smile was clear and as gentle as the wind on a summer night. If you look carefully, there were pear dimples on his cheeks when he smiled. There was a shallow one on his face, which made his face shine in the moonlight. Elegant, handsome, and very gentle.

Qingxuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and a word popped up in his irritable heart.

Chic.

In the past, she could not understand why the empress summoned this boy to her dormitory to read at night. Now, through some strange combination of circumstances, she actually understood the empress' happiness.

The handsome young man at night always brings some subtle temptation...

Qingxuan shook his head vigorously to drive away those restless and messy thoughts. Seeing Bai Lian sipping the tea, he couldn't help but sneered: "You are the companion you said you were. I drink?"

Balian coughed lightly and said, "I have a bad ability to drink, and the queen knows this. If you need it, I can drink some."

Qingxuan's eyelids twitched, he shut up decisively and did not respond.

She clearly remembered the virtues of this boy when he was drunk. He would pour a glass of wine, throw mud, and grab a random woman and call her mother.

She doesn't have the patience of a concubine and can't handle such a situation.

Qingxuan knocked down Bailian's hand that was touching the wine jar with a snap, and said out of breath: "Forget it, drink your tea."

Balian wisely stopped touching the jar of wine, smiled faintly, and said, "Is there something bothering you, Mr. Qingxuan?"

A trace of cold wine entered the throat, but the sweet aroma turned into a bitter taste.

Qingxuan was in a low mood. She gently shook the wine in her glass and said softly: "As you said, opening the Holy Land is not optimistic."

Baili'an comforted: "What is a calamity period? The calamity period is determined by the number in the life chart. It is an inevitable calamity. If Master Qingxuan can easily open it, how can it be called a calamity period?"

"How come I don't understand what you said?" Qingxuan poured another glass of wine and drank it, his snow-white face already turning a faint blush.

"It's just that what I didn't expect was that the amount of source blood collected was not even half of what I expected. This is really... ridiculous."

Bai Lian was startled for a moment, but his eyes soon returned to calm, "What Master Qingxuan means is that you have already released the news and opened the gate to the holy realm, which will save the empress from death. But the number of Kunlun people who have been summoned, But it’s not satisfactory?”

Qingxuan's eyes were sad: "Not only is it unsatisfactory, I can't even imagine how uncomfortable it would be if the empress knew about this."

Balian was silent for a moment, and then said: "I think no matter how realistic and cruel the facts are, my lady... she will probably never know the feeling of 'uncomfortable'."

Qing Xuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are the only one who understands, Madam."

Bailian said: "I don't understand. Although taking the source blood will damage one's own foundation, under a certain amount, it will not endanger life. If something happens to the empress, the landslide will cause the realm to collapse, and the homeland will be dispersed. It’s a big deal, why do they avoid it so much?”

According to common sense, if the empress successfully survives this disaster, Kunlun Mountain will be safe and sound.

Protecting our home is a responsibility that everyone must bear.

It's so simple, how could they not understand it.

"I don't understand..." Qingxuan's heart was extremely miserable. Even in the dark of night, her alcoholism could not be relieved, and her frown was like a lock. She simply abandoned the cup, picked up the wine jar with one hand, raised her white neck and took a sip. Due to the strong alcohol, his eyes began to become hazy and red.

"I don't understand, what is going on in Kunlun Mountain today?" For a moment, the voice of the female official Qingxuan was choked with sobs.

(Beibei is such a big idiot!!!!)
