fox master

"Your Majesty, Xi Xiao is good at handling information and is used to tricky tricks. He himself has sent many monsters to Xi Baichen, but because Xi Baichen is too shrewd, no monster can really approach her. .

If he knew that Qiudie was undercover for Xi Baichen because of his younger brother, he wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it, especially when he realized that Xi Baichen didn't know that his undercover was exposed. "There was a gleam in Jimo Tu's eyes.

Zhan Yize's expression moved slightly, he brought Gui Nian here because he had taken a fancy to the secret technique "Worriless" of the Nether Ghost Butterfly Clan, and planned to let him steal the Hirano Seal.

It's just that I didn't expect too many accidents in the middle. Although I used the identity of Ghost Nian to gain Xi Xiao's trust, the value of Ghost Nian is definitely more than that. It is a pity to leave the stage like this.If you can still stay, the chance of obtaining the Hirano Seal will increase by at least [-]%.

"You mean, we took the initiative to expose the relationship between Qiu Die and Qiu Mo to lure Xi Xiao into the bait?" Zhan Yize said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Xi Baichen protected me very well, and the martial arts hall also silenced everything, but she never expected that I would take the initiative to send it to her door." Jimotu analyzed.

Huge risks are often accompanied by huge benefits. If it is handled well this time, it will not only kill two birds with one stone?Zhan Yize suddenly let out a low laugh, seemingly very happy, "Then make a good plan, and send Xi Xiao a reasonable 'big flaw' tomorrow night."

……

In the cell, Ghost Nian's face was pale and his expression was quiet, as if he had fallen asleep. However, the night had just begun.

Where is this?His head hurt a little, and Gui Nian looked around blankly. The fire was burning all over the sky, and his eyes were a little stinging from the smoke. The blood-soaked person looked very familiar. Is that... Father?

The one next to him... With some disbelief, Gui Nian turned his head slightly, and then saw Shui Ming holding Gui Qianhuan.

The fire that seems to burn everything, the bloody father, the trembling mother, this is - Ghost Palace!But how could I be here, my lord?Where is Your Majesty?

Moreover, I felt a little dizzy for no reason, felt so tired, and couldn't concentrate enough.

Gui Nian moved his lips, and just about to say something, his eyes widened slightly. The figure next to his mother, so small that he could almost ignore it, was himself?Three-year-old self!

His expression sank slightly, and his memory came back little by little. He should be in the prison of the Tiger Clan, why did he appear here?It couldn't be that Jimo Tu reversed the time and space, and it couldn't be some kind of soul leaving the body, going back to the past, etc... Such a mysterious thing that requires big movements and the cooperation of the parties, he doesn't believe it will happen inexplicably.

Is it a dream?Gui Nian was slightly dazed. He remembered that he had taken a very strange medicine. He had experienced Xi Xiao's medicine before. How could that kind of bastard make him sleep comfortably and dream?

And the dream shouldn't be so clear... Wait, if it was medicine, then the current situation might be caused by that medicine, but what is this?nightmare?fantasy?If it can be seen through so quickly, it is not a very powerful thing.

After almost figuring it out, Gui Nian's expression condensed again.

He stretched out his hand, tentatively touched the tiles on the ground, and finally passed through, um, in a state like a soul...

Um?What?Gui Nian suddenly felt that his brain was a little empty, what was he thinking just now?There was a little dullness in his eyes, and he looked around dully, why did he feel so tired?

Where is Your Majesty?Your Majesty, by the way...undercover, mission!Gui Nian woke up again, what kind of illusion is here, he must stay conscious, but for some reason, his attention and reaction are much slower.Damn it, Gui Nian's expression turned cold, the tip of his tongue moved slightly, and the teeth closed without hesitation, followed by a stream of bright red blood flowing down the corner of his mouth, and he also woke up with a jolt.It seems to be a little better, no matter what, stay awake first, fortunately, you can still feel the pain, he thought to himself.

However, he took a few steps forward, and found that "Gui Qianhuan" and "Shui Ming" still didn't notice him, and it seemed that he couldn't see himself, then...he took a few steps back, and then found that I can't move anymore, it's like being bound by some force, probably I can't stay too far away.

There was nothing he could do anyway, so he quietly watched their every move, watched Gui Qianhuan take out the essence of Xuedie's sacrifice, and watched himself take it, but... Gui Nian suddenly shivered.

Why are some places different from what I remember?

There was no warmth in his father's eyes. Although the memory was far away, he still remembered the faint expectation that made him swallow the black bead and made him have the courage to look forward. How could it be gone?

Gui Nian only felt a sharp pain in his head, and his spirit was already in a trance, but this time he felt even more unconscious.

No...can't lose consciousness, and...even if there is no temperature, it doesn't matter!He gritted his teeth tightly.

There was a gleam of clarity in Gui Nian's eyes. His father looked strange, but his eyes were always cold, so it was not bad this time, and no matter what, the black bead not only contained the essence of Xue Die's sacrifice, but also Gui Qian. Without the magical sacrifice power, otherwise it would be impossible for him to be reincarnated as a ghost butterfly.

So whether you care about it or not, the weight of the black bead itself is enough.

Moreover, he will meet His Majesty in the future. After meeting His Majesty, all the past is just the past. Thinking of this, Gui Nian's consciousness suddenly cleared up a lot, and some brilliance returned to his eyes. What he didn't notice was that At the same time, his gradually illusory figure was also solidifying again.

The story is like an accelerator key being pressed, light and shadow are intertwined, skipping one by one in Gui Nian's eyes, and I don't know how long it took before the picture becomes clear again.

Ghost Nian settled down, only to find himself in a courtyard, where is this?

Immediately, he saw a boy dressed in black, he was a slightly immature version of himself, what mission was he doing?He secretly thought that as the boy's footsteps moved, he was also forced to move his body, and he would never leave the boy three meters away.

He looked at the formation that he was destroying a room bit by bit. This formation was very familiar, and with a little doubt, he followed the boy into the room, but when he saw the boy's goal clearly, his whole body froze. Living.

Isn't that your Majesty?

This is... the time when he went to assassinate His Majesty after his reincarnation!There was a look of surprise in Gui Nian's eyes, and then he felt the familiar headache and dizziness again. If he is unsteady, will he become unconscious... No, it can't be like this, he bit his tongue hard again.He remembered that His Majesty was not injured, so he couldn't panic, and couldn't lose consciousness.

The sharp pain woke him up a lot, and he watched the boy's every move nervously.

The dagger was pulled out, raised, and stabbed down.

how come?Your Majesty didn't reach out to resist, which was different from what he remembered. For a moment, Gui Nian's head was covered with cold sweat, and his figure unconsciously began to become unreal.

No, he won't hurt His Majesty!A flash of stubbornness flashed in Gui Nian's eyes, even if the lord did not resist, he would not hurt the lord, no matter whether he had memory or not, he would not hurt the lord, this illusion could not shake him.

Following the stabbing of the boy's dagger, the demon lying on the bed also opened his eyes.

The dagger cut through Zhan Yixuan's chest, a little blood seeped into the white underwear, and then stopped.

The cold white moonlight came in and shone on the young man's side face. It was clearly the assassin, but the panic in his eyes was as real as it was.The boy's eyes were wide open, his eyes were blank, his pupils were shrunk into a tiny dot, his complexion was pale, like a dead person.

The dagger could no longer stab further.

Between the staggered figures, most of Zhan Yixuan's body was buried in the shadows, his expression was gloomy, he just stared straight at the young man, obviously his life was in the hands of others, but there was an expression on his face Nothing to do with his indifference, quiet and calm.

It's like a painting with faded colors, half-light and half-dark, frozen in the most contradictory moment, giving birth to a strange and strong emotion.

With a bang, the dagger fell, and the monster lying on the bed turned over and kicked the terrified boy.

The boy's expression became painful all of a sudden, Zhan Yizuo's blow was obviously [-]% forceful.He knelt down on the ground, staring blankly at the young man's blood-stained clothes.

Zhan Yize had already sat up, his pair of dark peach eyes reflected the cold moonlight, showing a bit of cold indifference.

Gui Nian looked at the blood on Zhan Yixuan's body, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. This illusion is really hateful, but His Majesty has his own way of dealing with it, so he can't allow him to think too much.Gui Nian turned his eyes away, and at the same time, his figure solidified again.

The scene in this environment is really more dangerous every time, Gui Nian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked up, huh?This time in the Fox Palace?

"Please don't tell your lord about the sacrifice." The clear voice sounded, it was him, then this time it should be the matter of him ordering Xuedie to sacrifice in the battle of Fengxian City.

War Jiuxian raised his eyes and looked at him, "You... Forget it." He seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it, "I won't say anything more, you should think about it carefully."

What?The Battle Brew Immortal didn't say anything!Gui Nian panicked for a moment, the words Zhan Jiuxian said that day were so clearly imprinted in his mind, and he corrected his thoughts that had almost gone astray.

——It is impossible for Your Majesty to never know about the sacrifice. Have you ever thought about how you will end up when Your Majesty finds out that you are hiding it?

——Ghost year!Can you tell what your Majesty wants?If you clearly know what His Majesty wants, then the only embarrassing thing is your own will.In your heart, is yourself more important or your superior?

——Nian of the ghost, you can't just want peace of mind for yourself, His Majesty also wants peace of mind, he has worked very hard.

If it was him who hadn't heard these words...Gui Nian felt great fear in his heart, looked at that "self" with a little disbelief, and left the Fox Hall like this.

How to do?

That self returned to Fengxian City like this, and then took out a piece of paper, obviously debating whether to report or not.

Please, tell Your Majesty, Gui Nian looked at him with red eyes, and the fear in his heart kept rising, please, don't hide it from Your Majesty, please.

He will never forget what His Majesty told him that day.

"Ghost Year, if you hadn't finally passed the news to me, I wouldn't have come to Fengxian City, and I wouldn't have cared about your sacrifice."

"I have many other channels to know about this matter. I don't need to borrow Qingqiu's staff. You should be grateful for your final choice."

"Ghost year, you belong to me, you have signed a contract and made an oath, if you make a mistake, I will punish you and teach you."

"You can have your own thoughts, but if it's time to say it, if I want to know, you are still choosing to deceive because of your own emotions..."

"The relationship between you and me has come to an end."

So, don't hide it, write it down, and tell Your Majesty!However, he stared helplessly at that self, squeezed the paper fiercely, and then resolutely tore it to pieces.

It's over, this is Gui Nian's last thought before losing consciousness.

That was something he would do by himself, so he firmly believed that there seemed to be a strange cause and effect in the dark, which made him fear another ending.

……

Gui Nian was in a trance for a moment, as if he had forgotten something. His eyes fell on the pile of shredded papers, and his memory gradually became clear. Yes, he just decided to completely conceal the sacrifice.

Although Zhanjiu Immortal said to make himself think about it, how could he face His Majesty like this, he won this battle after all, so why let His Majesty see such an unbearable side.

If your lord knew that he was sacrificing his life, and knew the way the fox soldiers looked at him, he would think he was ridiculous and useless. Your lord already had new guards by his side. If you were disappointed in yourself again, no, absolutely Can't!

In many cases, right and wrong are only in one thought.

A month later, Zhan Yize returned to Qingqiu with Shui Xiao and Jimo Tu. He sat on the chief seat and looked across the officials in the hall with an inexplicable expression.

Qingqiu's important officials were all summoned, and for a while, everyone felt a little uneasy, not knowing what Zhan Yixuan was going to say.

"Ghost Year" Zhan Yize said lightly.

"Zai" Ghost Nian stepped forward.

"How about the battle in Fengxian City?" Zhan Yize's tone was as usual.

Didn't the War Jiuxian pass the good news?Why did your lord still ask, you don't know something, Gui Nian has a bad premonition in his heart, but at this time, he can't just say that he has something to hide.

"My lord, the city was defended, but our side also suffered heavy casualties. It is due to the dereliction of duty of the subordinates." Gui Nian said.

Zhan Yize didn't speak, he leaned back slightly, and the red sleeve robe with gilt pattern hung down with his movements, he put his arms on the armrest of the seat, rested his chin with one hand, just watched quietly Looking at the year of the ghost, the expression in Taohua's eyes turned cold little by little.

For a while, the hall was eerily quiet, and no one dared to speak.

After a while, Zhan Yize sneered, "You are dereliction of duty."

There was already fine cold sweat on Gui Nian's head. Hearing these words, he felt shocked, his knees softened, and he fell to his knees, "Please punish me."

War Jiuxian seemed to have thought of something, didn't he?Could it be that the ghost year still concealed it from His Majesty?There was a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"Using soldiers to offer sacrifices will cause chaos in the army. Why do you hide such a thing and not report it? Please punish me? You have even done deceitful things, how dare I punish you?" Zhan Yize said angrily. .

In the main hall, there was no sound.

For the first time in Gui Nian, he felt an emotion called regret. Zhan Yize's words made him feel guilty. He was so terrified that he didn't even know what to say. His lips kept trembling, and finally he said, "This subordinate is guilty .”

Zhan Yize was so angry that he stood up directly from his seat, walked down, grabbed Gui Nian by the collar, and lifted him up, "Convict, you know what a fart!"

"For two lifetimes, the dark guards in charge of Guijun have been independent of Qingqiu's power, and are only responsible to me. Do you know what this means?" Zhan Yize's tendons on the back of his white hands were bulging, and the veins were exposed.

"This means that you are only my eyes and ears, which means absolute trust, but one day, you covered my eyes with your own hands, do you know what you are doing!" Zhan Yize threw him away, He closed his eyes slightly, trying to relieve the anger that was about to sink.

Gui Nian was slammed to the ground, the pain made him dull for a moment, he raised his head in a daze, and looked at Zhan Yixuan who was kneading the center of his eyebrows, obviously too angry, he was a little dizzy.

Gui Nian finally realized the problem. The dark guards belonged only to the superior, which represented absolute loyalty, but if one day, the leader of the dark guards concealed something from the superior, what would that mean?

That means that the department that transmits the message and executes the task will lose its pure meaning.

"Ghost Nian, do you know how much I believe in you!" Zhan Yize looked at Ghost Nian with an imperceptible tremor in his voice.

"Just because of a sacrifice, just such a little difficulty, you go to destroy this trust, you go to break the oath you made at the beginning, what do you take me for? Do you believe me?"

In the main hall, Zhan Yize's angry cursing still echoed in his ears, and in the silence, everyone lowered their heads, not knowing what You Zhan Yize thought of with these words.

- Do you believe me?

What is it to believe?This is a question that cannot be discussed in general, but at least, if he is not believed, Qingqiu will not become his ideal, and the fate of the fox clan will not become his destiny.

The emotional world of Yaozu is always paranoid and pure, with a strange fairness and causal cycle, how much you give, you will always get some form of feedback inadvertently.

Do you believe me?

Gui Nian froze in place for a long time, his eyes turned a little red, he really regretted it, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong." He bowed his head heavily, breaking the silence in the hall.

Gui Nian's voice was choked with sobs, that kind of deep remorse almost swallowed him, how did things turn out like this?He obviously disappointed His Majesty. If he was given another chance, he would never do such a thing. He hates it so much. Why did he hide it from His Majesty?

Zhan Yize just looked at him like this and didn't speak for a while.All the demons have slowed down their breathing, and those who are more thoughtful have already realized the problem. Your lord called all the important officials of Qingqiu today, and said something like this, I am afraid that it is not just to teach the ghost king. Simple.

"Give me the ghost king's seal." Zhan Yize finally spoke.

All the monsters gasped, Your Majesty wants to... waste the ghost king?This is really a big deal.

Gui Nian's body trembled violently, and he finally realized Zhan Yixuan's intention, but how could it be such a punishment?

He felt that his heart was constricting violently, and his breathing was uncomfortable.He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word, he just knelt on the ground, not even daring to lift his head.

"Give me the ghost king's seal." Zhan Yize said it again.

All the demons were waiting for his reaction, Gui Nian's hand moved slightly, but he couldn't do it, he couldn't do it, he couldn't hand over the ghost king seal, it was something given to him by His Majesty, it was the supreme trust He Rongchong, how could he be so confused, so confused that he even lost the ghost seal, but, my lord, whatever is fine, can you not take back the ghost seal.

The atmosphere in the hall was extremely stagnant. In such an atmosphere, Zhan Yize approached Gui Nian step by step, knelt down, grabbed his left hand, pinched the pitch-black ring, and was about to tear it off .

Gui Nian's left hand shrank subconsciously, and his right hand was also pulled up, trying to protect the ring, "Gui Nian, don't make it too ugly." Zhan Yize said in a deep voice.Gui Nian's expression was beyond ugly and indescribable, he was shaking all over, and there was no strength in his hands at all.

Zhan Yize looked straight into his pleading eyes, raised his other hand, and opened his fingers one by one. Gui Nian watched Zhan Yize's movements helplessly, with an almost desperate expression on his face , "My lord, please..."

Finally pulling away Gui Nian's resisting hand, Zhan Yize pulled off the ring neatly.

Gui Nian knelt down on the ground, clenched his fist tightly, blood flowed down the cracks between his fingers because of too much force, my lord, I really know I was wrong.

Zhan Yize walked in front of Shui Xiao, "Do you remember what I taught you?"

"My lord, remember."

"Don't let me down." Zhan Yize handed him the ghost seal.

Looking at the blood-stained ghost seal, Shui Xiao's eyes flashed a trace of complexity, after all, the ghost year is the demon he revered, "Yes, my lord."

"From now on, the secret guards of the Fox Clan will return to Qingqiu's power, and will be under the three elders. The title of Gui Nian Guijun will be revoked, and Shui Xiao will take over." Zhan Yi chose.

"The minister waits for the order."

In 2000, this organization that was independent from the No. 80 generation of fox ancestors would return to the scope of power of Qingqiu, and the officials felt a little uneasy.

However, everything is far from over.

Zhan Yize walked up to Gui Nian again, put his hand on his head, Gui Nian couldn't believe it, and raised his head cautiously.

"My name is Zhan Yicho, and I would like to terminate the contract with the person in front of me, from now on..."

"No, no!" Gui Nian stepped back abruptly and sat on the ground, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty!" Realizing what Zhan Yixuan was about to do, Jimotu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "You and him have both used altars before, so it is not appropriate to change your own laws. It is not good for you to terminate the contract."

"Oh, what will happen?" Zhan Yize paused.

"Maybe loss of lifespan."

"how long?"

"Around five years."

"20 years?" Zhan Yize smiled, "That's nothing."

"Your Majesty, please think twice." Immortal Zhan Jiu knelt on one knee and said.

"I've thought twice about it." If he didn't want to give Gui Nian a chance, he wouldn't have asked Fengxian City first today, but unfortunately he couldn't grasp it.

Seeing Zhan Yize walking towards him again, Gui Nian's expression was full of fear, and he moved back subconsciously.

Zhan Yize approached step by step, leaned over and grabbed him, Gui Nian fell to the ground, shaking more and more violently, he stared at Zhan Yize in a daze, "Your Majesty, I dare not..." Tears fell down , he actually cried directly, tears streaming all over his face, and his lips trembling unreasonably, "Don't... Your Majesty, please forgive me, please, please..." Tears kept pouring out , dripped down Zhan Yize's hand along his chin, and then flowed to the ground.

However, the look in Zhan Yize's eyes was so firm that there was no room for rejection.

"Ghost year, our relationship has come to an end."

……

In the prison cell, the sky was already dawning, but Zhan Yixuan's expression was somewhat inexplicable. He stared blankly at the puddle of water on the ground, and then went up, staring at the tear stains on Gui Nian's face.

Ghost Year... Is this crying?He was a little stunned, and it was nothing more than a physical one, but this time it was obviously different. Although he was in a deep sleep, the despair and sadness almost turned into reality. What method did Xi Xiao use?He really hasn't cried in two lifetimes.

Also blame the poor.

……

On the other hand, Zhan Yize obviously doesn't think Ghost Nian is pitiful.

"My name is Zhan Yicho, and I am willing to terminate the contract with the person in front of me, so that I will never have anything to do with each other."
