Chapter 1146 The inner ghost

The vermilion door of Longfeng Garden was closed with a rumble behind it. Among the three people who walked down the steps, Lin Nian stood still and then turned his head. From the gold-plated door nails on Hengjiu Road and Shujiu Road, he could see the courtyard.

The figures sitting around the stone table in the depths gradually narrowed as the gap narrowed, and the sights following him also narrowed. It was not until there was a rumble that the tightly fitting vermilion door opened the mass inside.

The autumn fire that burns all the time is completely isolated.

With the sound of the door closing, Sima Xuxu, who had been following them with his head lowered to Lin Nian's right, collapsed without warning, as if his bones had been removed, leaving only rotten flesh in his body that could not sustain itself.

upright.

Logically speaking, Lin Nian and Li Hueyue, who were on his left and right, had enough time to react and stabilize him, but neither of them took action, allowing Sima Xuxu to sit on the ground and move backwards.

When he fell, they inadvertently put a leg in front of his back to support him.

"Thank you." Sima Xuxu breathed frequently, thanked the two people around him in a low voice, and then became quiet. During this period, a large amount of sweat suddenly appeared on his body, accompanied by rising sweat.

The heat visible to the naked eye soaked his entire body, and the heavy cotton white T-shirt on his body was also dyed dark, and the sweat wrapped in brown blood flowed along the stone steps along the limbs.

The fact that he can still speak clearly proves that the problem is not big, Lin Nian thought silently.

Sima Xuxu, who was sitting on the ground, had a strange posture. He leaned on the two legs behind him, and his hands hung by his side as if he had lost all strength. This was because Li Hueyue almost used those two hands when he attacked him before.

The arm was broken. The smallest fracture was an incomplete fracture. The continuity of the bones in both arms was partially interrupted, but the bones should not have been completely damaged.

It was precisely because both Lin Nian and Li Hueyue, who had done it personally, were well aware of the condition of his arm, so they did not help him when he fell. A little more strength might have made his injury worse.

The most correct way is to let him sit down naturally on the ground without falling on the back of his head. (Of course, this may also aggravate the arm injury due to the inertia when sitting on the ground. Considering Sima Xuxu's own bloodline, the two

People don’t worry about this).

"Don't talk nonsense next time." It was rare that Li Hueyue took the initiative to talk to Sima Xuxu. She looked at the boy who was sullen on the ground and said, "You can't use your two hands within a week. Go to the hospital to get a plaster."

Fix it and take some anti-inflammatory drugs to avoid inflammation. If you can, go to Xiaosheng and ask her to prepare some intermittent ointment for you."

"Black Jade Intermittent Cream? Is there really an orthodox formula for this kind of thing?" Lin Nian suddenly looked at Li Huoyue and asked.

"Ah, it's just the intermittent ointment. I heard it was made from cicada sloughs and mixed with mint juice. It feels cool when applied. When I was a kid, I often fell and fractured my bones. Xiaosheng always stole the intermittent ointment from home and applied it to me." Sima

As soon as Xuxu sat down and her enthusiasm subsided, she was grinned by the swelling and pain in her arms and the burning sensation on the bridge of her nose.

"Xiao Sheng was often punished for stealing ointment. You must remember her kindness." Li Hueyue said.

"Of course I remember her! I gave her a 'Flying Sword' for her last birthday!"

"I know about the experimental product you stole from Tianji Pavilion. Afterwards, the experimental product that had not been debugged was recovered, and it caused a lot of trouble."

"Ah? Those guys want the things back?" Sima Xuxu looked up in confusion. He looked quite funny with his face covered in blood.

"It's just that Xiaosheng didn't mention this to you, and even helped you cover it up." Li Hueyue frowned slightly, "Think twice before doing anything in the future."

Sima Xuxu felt the coldness in the girl's tone behind him, and did not dare to refute or criticize her. He could only hum softly twice to show that he understood.

Lin Nian squatted down and slightly touched Sima Xuxu's arm to check whether there were any signs of dislocation or bone deformation. He also took a look at the thick blood stain on the boy's originally handsome face. It seemed that the boy had a bruise on his nose after a while. A piece of white cotton has been hung up, but it will not completely ruin the appearance. The resilience of the 'dry' hybrid is still trustworthy.

"Is it necessary to be so harsh?" He looked up at Li Huoyue and asked.

"It's already considered light." Li Hueyue said.

Sima Xuxu didn't say anything, probably because he thought that he had asked for this appearance. The moment Li Huoyue attacked him was indeed beyond his expectation, but he thought that if Li Huoyue didn't do anything, he would suffer in the future. The pain may be several times worse than the current physical pain.

"Rules are rules." Li Hueyue raised her head and looked indifferently at the rows of golden and red leaves outside Longfeng Garden, "Can I walk by myself?"

"Yes, my hands are a bit strenuous, but my legs are fine. I just feel a little dizzy due to excessive bleeding. Just sit down and relax for a while." Sima Xuxu nodded and said there was no big problem.

"I'll call and ask Xiaosheng to pick you up outside the compound."

"Don't, don't, don't, don't call Xiaosheng." Sima Xuxu quickly turned around, but found that Li Hueyue had already dialed the phone and put it to her ear. Her peripheral vision didn't even leave him on the ground. It was obvious that this sentence The words are just to inform and not to ask.

Immediately, the boy had a kitten expression on his face. It was obvious that this person was in trouble today. He could already think of the complicated expression on Xiaosheng's face when he saw her, plus the gentle question to take care of his self-esteem. Then, "What's wrong with you? Are you okay? If you don't want to talk, then I won't ask."

That feeling was a hundred times more uncomfortable than mocking him in person. Only Xiaosheng's considerate and careful care, her meticulous care for him, could make Xuxu, a guy who had always been shameless, make mistakes every time he made mistakes in front of the other party. They will all involuntarily feel ashamed and humiliated.

By the way, the top three things that Sima Xuxu was most afraid of in his life up to this point were "the disapproving gaze of his ancestors", "Li Hueyue's cold gaze" and "Zhao Xuansheng's silent gaze".

"Xiaosheng? I am Li Huoyue. Xuxu is waiting for you in front of Longfeng Garden. You drove here and took him to the hospital. He was slightly injured. If there are no big questions, don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked." Li Huoyue said.

He finished the notice in a very businesslike tone, and when he hung up the phone, Xiaosheng on the other end must have arrived in a hurry.

Sima Xuxu sat on the ground and was depressed for a while. He wanted to scratch his head but couldn't lift his hands. He could only shake his head and almost threw the nosebleed on the face of Lin Nian who was squatting aside. "Sister Huoyue, the ancestor inside just said

things"

"Don't ask too much, I don't want to talk about this." Li Huanyue put down her phone and rejected the topic that Sima Xuxu on the ground was cautiously trying to start.

Lin Nian took half a step back and stood up, wiping the non-existent blood on his face without interrupting.

"How could I not ask?" Sima Xuxu lowered his head and said in a very complicated tone, "If it is a 'big matter' that the old people talk about that usually has nothing to do with me, it will definitely not be my business, but this time I

How can you stay out of it? Don't treat me like a child all the time, okay? You and I both know what the 'moon' ritual is all about, and our ancestors are serious about it this time!"

Speaking of the last few words, Sima Xuxu seemed to have used all his strength, and the breath in his words was full of helplessness and confusion, like the confusion of a child who recognizes the contradictions and rules of the world but is unable to make changes.

"I will handle this matter well. Just like what I said before in the hospital, as long as we find another Dragon King's heart, the matter will be solved." Li Hueyue looked dejected, her shoulders as heavy as if they were being weighed down by a mountain.

The wolf-tailed boy said calmly, "You don't need to pay too much attention to this matter, I will take care of it."

Sima Xuxu didn't answer or move, he just sat there dullly.

Li Huoyue looked at the hanging hair on the back of his head and asked, "Do you believe me?"

"Believe it, of course I believe it." Sima Xuxu replied with his head lowered.

"Then follow Xiaosheng to take care of your injuries, and temporarily turn your attention to other places. This matter has now been settled. You have also seen with your own eyes what the secret party and the clan leader of the Sima family have decided.

You should be clear about the contract. In orthodoxy, the form of the contract trumps everything else, and there will be no other surprises in this matter before changes occur." Li Huanyue said.

Sima Xuxu glanced at Lin Nian and agreed with Li Hueyue's statement. In Longfeng Garden, he had indeed witnessed the contract between Lin Nian and the Sima clan leader. Using historians and documents as evidence, Orthodoxy provided all assistance to help Lin Nian enter.

The Nibelungs hidden in the Bei'an subway transportation system kill the awakened Dragon King, and Lin Nian will transplant the new Dragon King's heart into his 'moon' system after everything is settled.

, help him become a new generation of 'moon'.

"But if what our ancestors said is true, we have really discovered a Nibelung root, and the one inside is the Dragon King." Sima Xuxu's tone was low and complicated, "You know the last time"

"We will solve it." Lin Nian spoke. He and Sima Xuxu looked at each other and nodded, "It is indeed a very dangerous thing, but it is not invincible. The two monarchs of the Bronze and Fire Kings are both

We have already lost to the hybrids, and the King of Earth and Mountain will be no exception this time."

"When are you going to challenge Him?" Sima Xuxu looked into Lin Nian's eyes.

"We will leave when we are ready."

"Then when will you be ready?" he asked.

Lin Nian paused for a moment and did not answer, because any further words would be just perfunctory nonsense. He knew what the boy wanted to ask, and he also knew that he could not give him an accurate answer.

"Leave this matter to us." Li Hueyue helped Lin Nian out. She said, "I don't know when we will be ready, but what I am sure of is that you are not ready yet. Now you are leaving.

It will be some time before we embark on such a battlefield."

"I"

"Don't refute." Li Huanyue said slowly, "You know the gap between you and me, or him (Lin Nian). Only after you truly succeed me as 'Yue' will you step on the stage.

.”

"But I never thought about becoming the 'Yue'." Sima Xuxu said softly in an inaudible voice.

As soon as his back relaxed, Li Huoyue retracted her legs and left. She walked to the front and motioned for Lin Nian to follow.

After the two of them walked down the stairs, they stood on the road covered with maple leaves. Li Huanyue looked back at Sima Xuxu for the last time, then turned and left. Lin Nian also stopped there for a few seconds and looked at the embarrassed man on the stairs.

The boy nodded slightly and followed Li Hueyue in front.

After walking far away and the wolf-tailed boy on the stone steps behind him had disappeared from sight, Lin Nian looked at Li Huanyue who was walking in the narrow and messy alleyway in front of him and asked, "Why is it him?"

"His bloodline is the best, and the 'Yue' system is also the top 'masterpiece' in the latest batch. Compared to me, he is the best 'Yue' bearer in the past fifty years, and the most important thing is that he

The spirit of speech is also a once-in-a-lifetime 'jade leak'." Li Huanyue didn't look back and answered Lin Nian's question.

"You mean 'time zero'?" Lin Nian would not admit his mistake about the realm of speech and spirit he sensed from Sima Xuxu in front of Longfeng Garden.

"You can blame the source of the matter on Hilbert Jean Angers, and the youngest and most energetic of the secret party, the 'Destined Dragon Slayer' who is also famous in the news in the mixed race world. Those two

My personal use of 'Time Zero' and 'Instant' has led many people to believe that this type of spirit is the real nemesis of dragons and the most effective deterrent weapon for maintaining 'hegemony'." Li Huanyue said lightly, "

Now the Orthodox have found their 'Destined Dragon Slayer'. Even if he is young and surly, as long as he is polished carefully, there will always be a day when his talents will shine through."

"Actually, 'Sword Control' is more versatile than 'Time Zero' or 'Instant'." Lin Nian said, "It's a pity that you met the wrong opponent."

Li Huanyue, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and Lin Nian also stopped for it. He looked at the person in front of him and looked back at him, with a hint of gold flowing in his eyes, "Are you comforting me?

"

""

""

"Yes, I'm just trying to comfort you." Lin Nian looked at Li Huanyue's eyes with a light golden glow and said calmly, "After all, in my opinion, my status has been questioned by senior officials due to problems with her words and performance.

This kind of thing itself is very insulting, but you can't find any reason to refute or protest. As long as you are alone, you will be angry and aggrieved, so I chose to comfort you. If you think I said something wrong, I will not apologize.

, because I don’t like the look in your eyes now.”
