Chapter 84: Chi Qing
Chi Qing held a dim paper lantern and led the elder of the Holy Blind Clan towards this side. The two of them looked over at the same time. The elder was an elderly woman, leaning on a long stick of dead wood.
The cold and damp underground life made the old man's skin become pale and frightening. She closed her eyes, but it still made people feel that there was a serious line of sight constantly observing her.
Blind in sight and not blind in heart, the Great Elder actually did not need Chi Qing to lead the way. She walked steadily, stepped on the stone steps step by step, walked straight to Xiao Qianye, and suddenly stretched out her same skinny hands to touch his strangely.
cheek.
The old man's face looked a bit strange, and he made an uncomfortable gurgling sound in his throat. He took a few steps closer and sniffed hard with his nose.
"First Elder, Miss Yun is in the house..." Chi Qing was also a little surprised and kindly reminded her. The First Elder snorted coldly and spoke in a sharp female voice, "Of course I know that the Breath of the Spirit Phoenix is in the house.
Inside, these two people, especially him, have some strange auras about them, who did you bring in?"
"Didn't I confess to you just now? He is the current master of the imperial military pavilion, and next to him is his brother." Chi Qing added with a smile, but the elder scolded angrily, "That's not what I'm talking about, they
The alien mixed-race aura on his body is very strange, it does look a bit like..."
Before she finished speaking, the Great Elder suddenly opened her mouth wide with fear on her face. She even threw away the long staff in her hand. She tremblingly approached Xiao Qianye again, almost crawling on top of him.
He muttered with confidence: "This smell! It's exactly the same as the token left by that adult! Is that adult back?"
Xiao Qianye's brows had long been knitted into a ball. The Great Elder was only half as tall as him, but his whole body was hanging on him, sniffing constantly.
"First elder, you should go and see Miss Yun first. She is Lord Feng Ji's biological sister! She is seriously injured and is waiting for you!" Chi Qing was afraid that he would be angry, so she quickly dragged the elder away in a good voice.
After coming down, he coughed a few times in embarrassment, and then took the initiative to push the door open. The elder hesitated for a moment, but after hearing the word "Feng Ji", he quickly came to his senses and followed Chi Qing into the house.
Yun Xiao woke up again when she heard the sound of the door on the stone bed. The short sleep did not relieve her fatigue at all, but made her whole body more sore and unable to get up.
"Stop moving!" The elder only knew her movements from the voice, and quickly stepped forward to hold her down. Her tone suddenly became as gentle as that of an ordinary old lady. She gently touched Yun Xiao's forehead, feeling distressed.
He put her hand in his arms and said, "You are Lady Feng Ji's biological sister. The Holy Blind Clan is honored to take care of you and will do its best to heal your injuries."
"Thank you, thank you." Yun Xiao was a little embarrassed. Using the title of Feng Ji's biological sister to have foreigners treat her so warmly always made her feel a little uncomfortable. To be precise, Lady Feng Ji didn't actually admit it.
She is her sister.
"The bone is broken..." The elder pressed Yun Xiao's arm carefully, and her expression became more and more serious. She turned around and ordered: "Chi Qing, go call all the people in the village and ask them to prepare some cleaning supplies."
I need some hot water and a change of clothes, and then go to the Elder’s House to ask the maids to pick some moonflowers and bring them to me. The injury is serious and it took so long, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to cure.”
"No need to go to such trouble!" Yun Xiao quickly stopped, "It's so late, don't bother you to rest."
"Late?" The great elder smiled casually, as if he was talking to his own granddaughter, "The Holy Blind Clan lives in cracks underground. They are born blind, so there is no difference between morning and evening! Don't worry too much
, Yuebaihua is a kind of fairy grass that grows at the bottom of the glacier river. The river you crossed when you came in is the branch of the glacier. Its spiritual power is very abundant. As long as you take good care of it, with the recovery ability of the Lingfeng clan,
Most of them can be cured."
"Miss Yun, don't go out. It's important to heal." Chi Qing winked at her. He did not go out to knock on the door in person, but waved the paper lantern in his hand. At the same time, lanterns were hung all over the village.
With a clear sound like wind chimes, the sleeping people walked out of the room one after another. The elder shook his head helplessly and did not blame him for anything. He pointed to the door and said, "You guys, please go out and boil some water."
Just send the girls in."
"Yes, yes!" Chi Qing held Xiao Yibai's arm with one hand and Xiao Qianye with the other, pulling them directly to a corner of the village. She breathed a sigh of relief, "You two should rest for a while, and I'll find you a clean one."
Put on your clothes first."
"Chi Qing, follow me back to the imperial capital to rescue the prince." Xiao Yibai carried him back and said thoughtfully, "I just used Mingdie to contact Gongsun Yan, and he said that Xi had been placed under house arrest at the Fengxin Tower by His Majesty.
Here, he must have spies watching everywhere, so he won't let me open the lens to find him. Your Majesty has already begun to prepare for the separation of the four realms. I'm worried that Mingxi will conflict with Your Majesty because of this..."
"Wait, wait." Chi Qing interrupted him calmly and rolled her eyes quickly, "I'm fine, but I'm a foreigner and I can't enter Tianyu City."
Only then did Xiao Yibai come back to his senses and bit his lip - there were four gates in Tianyu City. The three armies of the empire all used the northernmost beacon tower. The east gate was reserved for caravans, and the south gate only had certain gates.
It will only be opened during the festival, so if ordinary people want to enter the imperial city, they can only go around the outer wasteland to the west gate. The four gates are guarded by the garrison troops of the Forbidden Army. Archmages from the Star Sacrifice Palace will be arranged to guard them to prevent aliens.
Sneak in and sneak in.
Even when Gongsun Yan secretly brought Bai Xiaocha into Tianyu City, he relied on his special status as the master of the Mirror Pavilion to bribe the caravan, and even went to Danzhen Palace to steal the "Ningxi Powder" that can make people fake death.
This was how he managed to hide his identity and get through it.
Indeed, if you take Chi Qing to Tianyu City, you will be discovered immediately if you can't even get past the west gate.
"I can meet you in the wasteland outside." Chi Qing murmured to herself, her mind moving rapidly, and she suddenly took out the star pendant from her arms with a smile and shook it vigorously a few times, "Cen Ge, how about you go...
…”
"You're dreaming." Cen Ge was so disturbed by his shaking that he simply transformed and walked out. Chi Qing grabbed him and didn't care that his hand passed through the transparent soul body. "Although you are also a foreigner, you are a soul after all.
Theoretically it cannot be discovered."
"Huh, you're dreaming." Cen Ge didn't want to pay attention to him and was upset when he saw his sparkling eyes. Chi Qing clicked her tongue in embarrassment and had an idea, "You won't help me, but you have to help Miss Yun, right? I
I guess the senior officials of the Imperial City already know her identity. Plus she has a special relationship with the military pavilion master. They will definitely not let her go. If you don’t save the prince now or help Feng Mo, your majesty will really clear up all the troubles.
Resistance force, do you think she can escape safely?"
"Wrong logic." Cen Ge scolded angrily, "When her injury gets better, I will send her back to the Kunlun Mountains. I want to see what the imperial capital is capable of and chase her to the Central Plains."
"Can you go to sea easily?" Chi Qing asked back, and sure enough, she saw Cen Ge was stunned for a long time, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
There are only two ways to go to the Central Plains from Feiyuan. Either directly use the only official ship or dangerous private ship in the seaport city of Yudu, North Coast City, or use something that can fly, such as the Sword Spirit or the Tianzheng Bird.
But right now, North Coast City has just experienced the catastrophe of the Sea Demon and is still in a state of paralysis. All ships have stopped, and the sword spirit will be directly captured by the Sacrificial Star Palace and exposed!
Her body was still frozen in the Palace of Thousand Machines by Feng Shi Sword Technique. With just this soul, even if she controlled the undead, it would be impossible to directly send her back to the Central Plains thousands of miles away.
"Let's make a deal." Chi Qing stepped forward, pressed her eyes against his, and whispered, "I'll tell you the origin of these eyes, and you promise me to save the prince, how about that?"
His words aroused the curiosity of the three people in front of him at the same time. The Holy Blind Tribe was born blind, and only Chi Qing had a pair of bright eyes.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your promise." Chi Qing found a stone and sat down. He put the paper lantern aside and supported his chin with both hands. "I haven't been able to see since I was a child. Although the Holy Blind Tribe said they were blind.
If you are not blind, you can live like a normal person with your more sensitive hearing and smell, but I don't like it. I obviously have eyes, so why am I born blind?"
He smiled bitterly and suddenly looked up at Cen Ge: "Speaking of which, how long has it been since we last met? Twenty-three, twenty-six?"
"Twenty-seven years." Cen Ge blurted out. Such an accurate number still shocked Chi Qing, and curled her lips in embarrassment, "Oh, it's twenty-seven years. The lifespans of aliens vary greatly, so the concept of time
It’s far less clear than humans. I’m a little older than you. Before I met you, I followed my parents out of underground cracks when I was fifteen years old. Because the materials underground were very poor, people needed to be regular.
Go to land to buy a lot and come back to stock up."
"That was the first time I left the underground." Chi Qing's eyes were shining, and she smiled unconsciously, "Although I can't see it, I can touch the cold snow, and the tall trees, and I can feel it.
I saw the wind blowing on my cheeks and the warm sunshine! It was at that moment that I desperately wanted a pair of eyes, a pair of eyes that could see the world."
"I deliberately got lost with my parents. They were going to Xuecheng to buy supplies. However, Xuecheng is very repulsive to foreigners. I could only sneak in during the half-hour change of guard in the military pavilion and find a black market contact to make a quick transaction.
After that, we left immediately. My parents were all focused on observing whether there were any troops around, and they had no time to pay attention to me. They always thought that I would follow them obediently, and then, I took the opportunity to slip away."
"You and I have not seen each other for twenty-seven years. Including the five years we met before, that is thirty-two years ago." Chi Qing counted with her fingers, "I slipped away from Xuecheng.
After that, I first crossed the glacier, then passed through the forest, and finally arrived on the snowfield. Although I couldn't see anything, I always felt that everything around me was so novel, and I couldn't wait to take a look."
"Were the Zuye tribe originally residents of Jialuo?" He suddenly asked, and Cen Ge nodded silently. The Zuye tribe were natives of Jialuo and lived on the Weeping Snow Plateau, near the snow monument.
"You saved me later because I was too close to the snow monument and was almost torn into pieces." Chi Qing continued to speak and scratched her head, "In fact, I have heard the elders in the clan talk about that snow monument.
The nearby magic circle is more powerful than the Demon-Sealing Seat guarded by the Holy Blind Clan. If you hadn't happened to see me passing by at that time, I would have died at that time, right?"
"I shouldn't have saved you." Cen Ge snorted coldly, but showed no mercy, "I never thought that a young man I accidentally rescued would use me for five years, just to take away
My eyes."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yibai and Xiao Qianye looked at each other awkwardly and did not dare to speak.
"Haha... Indeed." Chi Qing did not defend herself, and there was not even the slightest regret in her bright big eyes. "At that time, I was really envious of you. I went crazy with envy and went crazy with jealousy. I know your heart.
Shan, so you take me with you wherever you go, and you always try your best to describe the things around you to me, thinking that this will make my dark world more colorful, but it's just the opposite...
You only make me more eager to see it for myself."
Cen Ge lowered his eyes, as if the blind boy from before appeared before him again. He kept looking into the distance without saying a word.
It should have been a long-planned plan. While he was sleeping, the blind boy used the "Ningxi Powder" bought on the black market to put him into suspended animation, and then used what he had secretly learned in the Zuye clan over the past five years.
The witch doctor tried to dig out his eyes for his own use.
Fortunately, his sister Cen Qing came to him unexpectedly and used her body to protect Chi Qing when he raised the knife.
Later, he was awakened by his sister and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. He was placed in the witch doctor circle of the Zuye clan, with candles of five colors lit at the five corners. Chi Qing's eyes, which were born blind,
There was a terrifying white light, like a demon staring at him. He was holding a bloody dagger in his hand and was pulling it out bit by bit from his sister's back.
The movement in the house quickly alerted the clan members, and Chi Qing had no choice but to give up his plan. He threw away his dagger and fled through the door, disappearing completely from then on.
Cen Ge silently pressed his forehead. Twenty-seven years later, the bone-deep disappointment and pain still clearly appeared in his heart. The witchcraft array used by Chiqing was a forbidden technique of the Zuye clan, and the location where the witchcraft array was located was also clear.
From now on, no one can live in it anymore! The Zuye tribe had a small population to begin with, but because they brought an ambitious foreigner in, they were forced to abandon their home and move elsewhere!
Perhaps out of shame, or perhaps feeling the complaints of his tribe, he and his sister resolutely chose to leave. From then on, the two powerless alien children began to struggle to survive in the snowy fields.
Now that I think about it, my life in those six months was really like hell. There were White Tiger Legion in the snowfield and White Wolf Legion in the forest. Even if I escaped to the wasteland, there were also the Forbidden Army troops stationed in the wasteland. No matter where I went, there was endless persecution and oppression.
Discrimination, they stumbled all the way, and after wandering for more than half a year, they finally returned to the vicinity of the snow monument. The village that had been eroded by the witch formation was already in a mess, and most of it was buried under the wind and snow. It was almost impossible to tell that anyone had ever lived here.
It was here that he met his master, the female swordswoman from Kunlun Mountain in the Central Plains. Like a real god, she brought the two dying children back to Qianji Palace.
Cen Ge suddenly raised his head and glanced at Chi Qing with great disgust - even a woman as gentle as jade like his master could not change his temperament again. He was full of vigilance against everything. Only supreme power can
Fill your inner fears.
