Volume 4: The Game of the Gods Chapter 32: Unexpected Events
At this moment, several figures rushed into the small courtyard in a hurry. Perhaps because they were too anxious, they did not notice Wei Xingying and Ping Lili hiding on the banyan tree.
At this time, Wei Xingying had already heard the scene in the backyard described by Ying Lili. When he heard Ying Lili say that a mark that looked like a talisman and a golden thread appeared on the Crown Princess's face, he stopped the silver needle in his hand and said, "What did you say? Did you see it clearly?"
Pinglili nodded and asked in surprise: "What kind of magic is this?"
Wei Xingying's expression became even more solemn at this time. After a long while, he sighed deeply: "Alas, it seems that the thing that General Zhiguo was most worried about is about to happen. Fate is everyone's fate."
After talking for a long time, it was the same as saying nothing. Ping Lili still didn't understand what kind of magic this was.
She was confused. What on earth was she doing? Was it something bad? Why were all these people so nervous? She pinched the Life Skill to look carefully and found that the figures had already entered the backyard. Only then did she see clearly that the people who came were actually the maids of the Crown Princess. The one leading them was the maid named Ling who had competed with her several times before.
At this time, Ping Lili noticed that the Crown Princess was alone there before, and even the imperial physician who was supposed to be there was nowhere to be found. But what was she doing alone in the pool? Why did she let out such a shrill scream just now?
However, the few people who had just rushed in, for some reason, could not get close to the pool. Every time they tried to get close, they were bounced back by an invisible barrier.
After seeing that Ling tried several times and was bounced back each time, Ying Lili anxiously shouted something to the Crown Princess in the pool, but the other party seemed to have lost consciousness and did not respond. Ying Lili watched carefully and saw that the Crown Princess had her eyes closed and a painful expression on her face, as if she was enduring some heart-wrenching pain. What was she doing?
Suddenly, Pinglili found something strange in the pool. An amber-colored glass cup appeared out of thin air and floated above the head of the Crown Princess. Then, thousands of auspicious lights burst out in the air, forming half a fan, which was not big but extremely dazzling. The five-colored light inside flowed out like a thick juice made of melted gems, pouring on the Crown Princess. Suddenly, purple air slowly seeped out from the Crown Princess' body. Her body gradually floated out of the water. Pinglili looked carefully and found that there were marks all over her body that looked like talismans and golden threads. At this time, as the purple air seeped out of her body, those marks began to gradually disappear...
Ping Lili seemed to faintly hear Ling shouting, "No!"
Then Ling was seen rushing towards the invisible barrier desperately, trying to break through it. At this moment, suddenly a person appeared behind her like a ghost, pressed her shoulders and stopped her.
I don't know what tricks he used, but he managed to pin Ling there, making it seem like she couldn't move!
The person who suddenly appeared was none other than the imperial physician who had mysteriously disappeared before!
When the other people behind him saw that Ling was subdued by him, they all showed their weapons, but it was only a blink of an eye. No one, including Gong Lili who was watching from a distance, could see clearly what the imperial physician was doing. Those people had already become sculptures like Ling.
The imperial physician had just finished dealing with the few people who suddenly broke in, and then he slowly walked to the edge of the pool , as if he was talking to the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess still had her eyes tightly closed, and the purple air was still oozing out, while the marks in her body were gradually disappearing. However, Ping Lili could feel that a strange spiritual power seemed to be constantly gathering in her direction...
Although the imperial physician still looked like an ordinary middle-aged man at this moment, the expression on his face was very different from before. He no longer had the gentle and elegant temperament of a doctor, but instead had a strange and hostile aura!
Ping Lili gasped. There was indeed something wrong with that imperial physician! Was his usual appearance just a disguise? Was this his true face? However, this person's strength was truly unfathomable. Ping Lili was thinking over and over again, when did he appear? Was he always here? Why didn't she find any trace of him before? If he hadn't shown up at this moment, she would never have been able to find any trace of him!
Moreover, the movement he just made was so swift that even he himself could not see it clearly. This was not the skill of an ordinary doctor!
Ping Lili quickly told Wei Xingying all that had happened with his mind. Wei Xingying closed his eyes slightly, and the three heads of the dark blue 'uI' on his arm suddenly opened their eyes as if they had life. Then, the silver needle in Wei Xingying's hand, which had already turned dark blue, flew out of the air, circled in the air, and turned a corner. Along with the three suddenly turned lines of sight of the 'uI', it headed towards the southeast of the yard!
What does this mean?
Ping Lili looked at Wei Xingying in surprise, and Wei Xingying was also slightly stunned at this time. Could it be that this imperial physician was not that person?
The silver needle Wei Xingying used just now was not the usual one. This one was a treasure he had treasured for a long time and he was reluctant to use it on weekdays.
This silver needle has been refined in his body for hundreds of years and has already acquired some human nature, which is commonly known as spiritual energy, and has some independent consciousness. Now the silver needle has absorbed the evil spirit of the demon Gu. If the other person carries the same evil spirit, the silver needle will be attracted by the evil spirit, as if recognizing its master, and follow the evil spirit into the person's body. But at this time, the silver needle was not heading towards the direction of the courtyard, but went in the opposite direction to the southeast. What was going on?
Could it be that the real thief is nearby? And in the southeast?
Wei Xingying was startled for a moment, then quickly flew towards the southeast like a startled wild goose. He had complete confidence in his silver needle, and thought that if he was lucky, he might be able to catch the man in the act!
As Ping Lili watched Wei Xingying's receding back, she hesitated slightly. Although she was curious about what secrets the Crown Princess and the Imperial Physician were hiding, she was more worried about Wei Xingying. Forget it, everything has its priorities. She gritted her teeth, turned around and followed the direction of Wei Xingying!
In fact, if Gong Lili used the Life-Saving Technique to look back again, she would have seen that the imperial physician had a mocking expression on his face.
Behind them, a night butterfly fluttered in the air, streaking across the sky...
Wei Xingying rushed all the way to the southeast. The 'uI' on his arm seemed to have sensed something and showed a ferocious expression. It seemed that the person was indeed nearby! The demon must have sensed the other party, but strangely, his silver needle seemed to have disappeared out of thin air! Wei Xingying suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart...
What's going on?
Has his silver needle already penetrated the man's body, or has it been discovered?
He squinted his eyes, and his breathing began to become a little heavy. He used his spiritual power to hurriedly stop the hurriedly approaching Ping Lili from behind him: "Stay ten feet away from me, just in case!"
At this time, Ping Lili was holding the Life Skill and could see clearly that beads of sweat were rolling down Wei Xingying's forehead. He knew that the man must be nearby. He was startled and had the black iron short blade in his hand. However, if he went further in this direction, wouldn't it be Hanyuan Hall? That was Long Yu's bedroom!
She suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. If that person appeared in Hanyuan Hall, did it mean that the other party was a close friend of Long Yu? This speculation made Ying Lili's heart tighten for no reason!
But what made her even more puzzled was that she had been practicing the Life-Saving Technique just now, but there was no one in the Hanyuan Hall. Where was the person they were looking for?
In fact, Wei Xingying had already noticed that they were heading towards the Hanyuan Palace, but he was more certain of his speculation. Could it be that person? The person that Wei Xingying was most reluctant to suspect, but had to suspect him. Although Wei Xingying didn't want to admit it, after thinking about it, that person was the most suspicious. He was the last one to leave the underground secret room that day. According to Ping Lili, he was also the last one to arrive at Jingyan Palace. During that period, if he wanted to do anything, he had plenty of time.
Although Wei Xingying could hardly believe that the man would do such a thing, how many years had he been with Uncle Long Yu? Since he was born, that man had always been by Uncle Long Yu's side, loyal and devoted. Although he didn't know what kind of past he and Uncle Long Yu had, he had always been Uncle Long Yu's right-hand man for so many years. If he were to tell others that he was a thief, I'm afraid no one would believe it, right? Including Wei Xingying himself.
That man had been his mentor, who taught him how to wield a sword and kill the enemies. Wei Xingying did not want to uncover the so-called truth from the bottom of his heart, or was unwilling to face the fact that he might be the thief. That was why he had deliberately avoided this place and went to the imperial physician first, perhaps hoping for luck.
Suddenly, a gust of night wind blew by, and Ping Lili keenly felt a hint of ominous breath, which seemed to come from the distant night sky!
Ping Lili subconsciously injected more spiritual power into the Life-Making Technique, but her face turned pale the next moment, and beads of sweat the size of beans instantly soaked her vest!
In the distant northwest night sky, groups of ferocious monsters with human faces and bird bodies are coming against the wind!
Although it was only an occasional sound, Peng Lili heard it clearly. It was the strange cry of "Fuxi Fuxi" that made her extremely familiar but extremely hateful!
Oh no! It's a night attack!
Ping Lili almost screamed out loud in the next moment!
