[Wen Ye＋Douluo] Human Design Delusion

The whole hall was silent.

Xue Ye's eyes were half closed, and he was weighing the gains and losses. Slowly, his eyes fell on the back of his hand. There were a few wrinkles on the knuckles. The skin was dry and lost its brightness. Xue Ye knew that he was in the mirror. The appearance cannot hide the vicissitudes and years. The white hair that was shiny and bright when he was young is now like the withered and falling new snow at the end of the harsh winter.

Perhaps because he never slacked off during his reign, even as a soul master, Xue Ye could feel the gradual decline of his body functions.

The wrinkles on his face, his insensitive taste, and the occasional fatigue all reminded him.

——I am already old.

As the emperor of a country, Xue Ye always puts the safety of the empire and its people first, so there are always traces of hesitation lingering in Xue Ye's heart.

He was asking himself - is the entire Tiandou Empire ready to withstand the turmoil?

After repeatedly asking himself several times, Xue Ye made a decision. He breathed softly and asked slowly: "What do you mean by defective products?"

Perhaps because of the long wait, the cut on his face throbbed intermittently. The injury was not serious, but it happened to be on a relatively sensitive face. Bai Owl first briefly treated the cut, allowing the wound to be exposed cleanly. Then he took out a bottle of medicinal powder from the soul guide, dipped a little of it on his fingertips, and applied it to the wound. He made a "hissing" sound while applying the medicine, and muttered: "Not even one." Healing soul master, my face hurts."

After the medicinal powder was sprinkled on the wound, a film was immediately formed to wrap the exposed flesh.

It still hurts a little.

He paused after hearing Xue Ye's question, "Flawless product? It's people like me and my sister."

"Aliens who yearn for the 'outside world', monsters who don't abide by the rules and are deviant." He said it lightly, even with a smile on his face. There was dark green powder on one cheek. He walked over and sat back down on the snowy night with a smile. Around me, "Of course, relative to that world."

Xue Ye asked: "So, you escaped?"

The white owl picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It seemed that he didn't like the bitter taste, and his facial features wrinkled together. "That's right." After pressing it down, he pushed the tea cup far away, making a respectful appearance. "Actually, if you think about it, there's nothing to tell about this story." Sitting in an awkward posture, his legs were straightened and dropped to the ground, with his heels on the ground. The white owl looked at his toes in a daze, swaying from time to time.

"In that place, strong people are responsible for killing people, and weak people are responsible for collecting corpses. It sounds very perverted, right?"

Xue Ye listened quietly.

Then, the white owl picked up the silver teaspoon from the ground and waved it in his hand, while saying: "But the former is the superior in that place, with privileges, wealth and beautiful girls, and is everyone's heart. "

bang-

The teaspoon was thrown on the table, making a crisp sound, rolling around twice and hitting the saucer before stopping.

"My sister and I don't want to live such a morbid life, so we are regarded as aliens." The white owl wanted to say something else, but it seemed that his nose was a little itchy. He shrugged the tip of his nose and sneezed quickly, "Ah Jiu——"

He rubbed his nose to drive away the remaining itching, and said angrily: "That's almost it. I feel like this story can come to an end."

The snowy night was stunned.

The story ends too hastily.

But he already understood the world that White Owl talked about in general, so Xue Ye did not ask further questions, but just asked: "Where is your sister?"

Bai Owl twitched the corner of his mouth, with a very sincere face: "I don't know, she is the one who always comes to me." He changed the topic and said to Xue Ye with a smile, "Actually, my sister looks similar to me. I want to see my sister more. I'm the same way. Don't worry, Your Majesty, maybe you will see her someday in the future."

"I have told your Majesty all my secrets, so you must protect me and my sister."

The white owl tilted its head, seemingly obediently leaning against Xue Ye, and made a straightforward request.

……

Xue Ye did not respond.

In his eyes, Bai Owl's issue was not only about the agreement between the two, but also about the weighing of pros and cons between the Tiandou Empire and 'that place'.

The young man seemed to see his hesitation.

The white owl straightened up, and when his beautiful eyes were no longer covered by bandages, he seemed to possess a kind of magic when he looked at others. He licked the corners of his mouth, his light lips glowing with a faint pink, and it looked like However, as a teenager, he is as fragile as the moonlight shining in the dark night.

The voice became softer, like a whisper that penetrated into Xue Ye's ears, "I'm very sincere."

"What I am going to tell you next is your secret. Do you want to hear it, Your Majesty?" The soft words like threads thundered in Xue Ye's heart.

secret?

Xue Ye smiled, treating him as if he were a child, and didn't care, and answered: "What secret do I have?"

The white owl raised the corners of his mouth.

He was good-looking, and with the help of his outstanding facial features, his eyes with coldness and smile became more and more obvious. They were shallow, like a bad child. He waved his hand towards Xue Ye and breathed. explain:

"Didn't your Majesty feel anything unusual?"

"Physically exhausted, mentally weak, unable to swallow, and withered appetite, there are so many of them." The white owl narrowed his eyes and continued, "Does your Majesty think it is a coincidence?"

……

"Keep those people away?" he said. "Or does Your Majesty want them to listen?"

"Well, actually it doesn't matter if you think about it. Those who can stay by His Majesty's side to protect you are all loyal people..." He paused and asked a question that Xue Ye did not expect, "So, let Are they farther away?"

Xue Ye said nothing.

The young man burst out laughing.

Lying down next to Xue Ye's ear.

"Your Majesty, you have been poisoned."

Xue Ye could almost feel the moment when the cold hair on his wrinkled nose stood up, and the trembling sensation under his skin spread along his spine to his fingertips. In that half a second, he briefly lost his reaction, and froze in place with his expression and movements. The boy The sound seemed to be rapidly amplified, and it wandered along the empty room for several times before hitting the ground.

With clenched hands and sticky sweat, Xue Ye knew exactly how her body reacted. The warm breath in her ears was gone, but Xue Ye felt extremely uncomfortable.

poison……

How could he be poisoned?

There is a healing soul master in the palace. Dugu Bo came to see him just before yesterday. Neither the people in the palace nor Poison Douluo noticed anything strange, but this kid in front of him dared to speak lies. Xue Ye's first reaction was that the white owl was in the letter He was talking nonsense, but after he calmed down and thought about it, what position did White Owl have to tell such a lie in front of him that could be exposed immediately?

Thinking of the previous fatigue, White Owl suddenly asked, and Xue Ye had a very bad guess in her heart.

Xue Ye's Adam's apple rolled and her eyelashes trembled a few times, but her voice remained calm and she ordered: "You all can go down."

……

A few gentle breezes.

The old man who led the white owl into the palace also bowed and walked out of the palace door in silence.

As for whether there are any Tibetans nearby, White Owl doesn't care, because those people only need to obey the emperor and ensure that what they are going to say next will not be leaked.

"Are you ready?"

The voice of the white owl sounded slowly.

"You may be doubting me, and you are also questioning in your mind whether the words about being poisoned are just nonsense on my part, but I can swear on my martial spirit, Your Majesty, I am not lying."

"As I said just now, this is a little gift of my surrender to you, in case you die too soon and the next emperor will not indulge me like you do."

Xue Ye: ...It’s really presumptuous.

Perhaps Bai Owl spoke too bluntly, but Xue Ye's face obviously didn't look good.

But he is very clear.

What the white owl said may be true.

It is true that his physical function has declined in recent years. Xue Ye cannot deny it. However, they are all minor problems and he does not take them to heart. Therefore, even Ning Fengzhi does not know about those minor problems. Now that they are mentioned, Xue Ye hesitates. , No matter how true the words of the white owl were, he followed the other party and waved away the person on the surface.

The white owl chuckled, "Don't disdain my honesty. Most soul masters live long lives. If nothing happens, you can still live for decades."

"The premise is that nothing unexpected happens."

Xue Ye's eyes were gloomy.

He placed his gaze on the cup of tea that White Owl asked about, his expression dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The white owl stretched out his finger and tapped the cup of tea that had lost its heat through the void. "Don't worry, there is nothing else in that cup of tea. It is indeed good tea. I am sure that you were poisoned because I never I smell a familiar fragrance on you, and I can still recognize that scent, no matter how faint it is."

Xue Ye: "How dare you say it just based on hearing it?"

The white owl smiled and said, "Yes."

"Just by smell."

He walked up to Xue Ye again and bent slightly, "You already have the answer in your mind, right?"

"Since you dare to poison the leader of a country, you must have made complete preparations. Except for you yourself, no one else will know that there is something wrong with the poison." When dealing with the emperor, White Owl goes straight to the point. : "Who would poison you? Who will be the beneficiaries after your death?"

A cold snowy night.

He frowned subconsciously, "You...!"

What are you provoking? !

Xue Ye's eyelids twitched and she swallowed the second half of her sentence.He is the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, and the Star Luo Empire and Wuhun Palace have reasons to attack him, but...

There were also things he didn't want to admit.

"It's cold at high places, I told you." At this time, the white owl smiled like a little devil.

……

Xue Ye closed her eyes and said in a deep voice: "What reason do I have to believe you?"

"You don't have to believe me."

The white owl said: "You just need to act out a play with me. I can smell the poison. This is the way to break the situation. I will stay and point out to you what are the things mixed with poison/drugs. Of course, Your Majesty can choose Believe it or not, I will come into contact with those things on your behalf."

"Then, choose a suitable day to 'attack'." The white owl pinched his neck with one hand, rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue, pretending to be poisoned, and then laughed loudly, "The person who poisoned it will definitely be shocked!"

Very bad.

Xue Ye frowned and thought.

Indeed, it is a good strategy.

"Whether this scene is successful or not, there is nothing to lose to you, right? If it is successful, you will not die early due to poisoning, and you will be able to find out who is behind the scenes, and I will fulfill the agreement and get your protection , if it fails, your body should no longer react abnormally."

"And I'm right under your nose. I believe I can't hide anything I want from you."

The white owl talks eloquently.

Xue Ye admitted that she was persuaded by him.

……

"What exactly do you want to do?"

The white owl smiled.

He raised a finger and said, "First of all, let me stay by your side legitimately."

"Even if you have three meals a day, you have to let me accompany you so that I can help you bear the poison."

"Secondly, you need to indulge me, but you don't need to indulge me too much. Just find a suitable reason and don't let me come into contact with sensitive things like imperial power."

"Finally, keep the above a secret."

Xue Ye listened to him quietly.

At that moment, his mood was a little complicated, and that young man could be said to be very wise and almost a monster.

He took a deep breath.

Trying his best to drive away the gray shadow that filled his heart, he asked, "What's your request?"

"Um, mine?"

"It is my dream to live happily as a dandy under His Majesty's indulgence."

The white owl blinked.

"So, has Your Majesty decided what titles should be given to me and my sister?"
