The noisy voices in his ears seemed to be far away suddenly, Ji Xinxi shook his head trying to resist the sudden dizziness, but finally fell into darkness.

"Ye Geng, this time I sent you to bring back my queen. You must protect her well. There are many people trying to take advantage of this opportunity in this wedding ceremony. Although there are many people here, you are the only one I can trust. Alone, you understand." A low-pitched boy rang in his ear, and Ji Xinxi's vision regained light.

Looking at an antique room, the sun is shining outside the window, and the incense burner on the table inside the room is burning with wisps of green smoke.

This is where?Isn't she in the ancient tomb, facing the general in armor right now?

"Your Majesty understands that I will live up to your Majesty's trust." Another man's voice came, and Ji Xinxi noticed that there were two other people in the study.

Both of them are men who seem to be about the same age. A man wearing a black gold robe is sitting at a desk with a handsome face like a knife, while the man half kneeling in front of the desk is wearing light armor, and his whole body is full of a touch of awe. .

"Get up, you are my bodyguard, and you have grown up with me since childhood, so you don't have to be so cautious when we are just the two of you." The man in front of the table raised his hand, signaling the man below to stand up.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Ji Xinxi thought that the man sitting in front of the desk should be a certain emperor, and the kneeling man named Ye Geng was his personal bodyguard, who was about to pick up the future queen for him.

She watched the man named Ye Geng get up, and was surprised to find that this man who looked fierce from the back had a delicate and clean face.

Ji Xinxi was taken aback for a moment, then felt that she must be dreaming, otherwise how could she appear here in such a good way, and I don't know what's going on in the tomb now, why she fell asleep at this juncture, she raised her hand to pinch herself, Turns out she couldn't move at all, couldn't speak, and the only things she could move were her eyes.

The scene in front of him suddenly changed, the original quaint study room turned into a lush forest, a carriage was parked in front of him, and the front and back of the carriage were full of people, the long line looked like there were more than a hundred people.

At this time, Ye Geng came to the carriage, saluted and said: "Princess, I heard that you have been in a bad mood for the past few days. You will be able to reach the town in half a day's journey. At that time, if there is anything the princess wants, I will definitely do my best." fulfilled."

A pink figure came out of the carriage suddenly, and before Ji Xinxi could take a closer look, that person had already turned on the horse that Ye Geng rode over, and a soft voice came over: "My princess Can you satisfy anything you want?"

"As long as it is what the princess wants, I will do my best." Ye Geng bowed and saluted, and said solemnly.

"I only want one thing, freedom! Ye Huwei wonders if you can afford it?" The woman on the horse looked back at Ye Geng below, and said casually.

Ji Xinxi's heart was shocked, and immediately the woman's bright face was the Princess Hanling who was lying in the coffin!It's just a little different from what I saw in the tomb. At this moment, she looks a little younger, and her expression is lively and energetic.

Hearing what she said, Ye Geng raised his head in shock and didn't know what to say, but Princess Han Ling leaned over her body, looked at him with a light smile and said, "You see, can't you give me this? Don't make promises easily if you can't do it." .”

Then, regardless of Ye Geng's reaction, she put her feet on the back of the horse, and the steed under her led her galloping forward, but there was no smile on her face, only a touch of helplessness and loneliness .

Princess Hanling gradually disappeared from Ji Xinxi's sight. Ji Xinxi looked back at Ye Geng who was standing still, and saw him staring at the direction where Princess Hanling was going away for a long time, and said in a low voice: " What the princess wants, I want too."

Afterwards, the scene changed again. The wedding party went all the way to Yang Chongguo. On the way, Princess Hanling often played tricks on Ye Geng and laughed at him for looking like a woman without masculinity. Ye Geng would never stop or oppose her. Words and deeds, on the contrary, sometimes knowing that there is a trap ahead, he will still plunge into it.

Ji Xinxi could feel that the murderous aura around Ye Geng was gradually disappearing, and she could see that the guard had developed a feeling of admiration for Princess Hanling, the future queen of Yangchong Kingdom.

At the same time, she also found that she was bound to Ye Geng, and all she saw was Ye Geng's experience.

Immediately afterwards, the welcoming team returned to Yangchong Kingdom. King Yangchong prepared a grand welcome ceremony to show the importance he attached to Princess Hanling. Geng also received a reward from King Yangchong, but only Ji Xinxi saw Ye Geng's clenched fists when he watched Princess Hanling stand next to King Yangchong, and how he fell asleep on the side of the street drunk that night.

King Yangchong appreciated Ye Geng's hard work on this trip and allowed him to take a vacation for a while, but Ye Geng couldn't bear to end his vacation early after staying at home for only two days. Princess Hanling has already moved into the harem, he should be avoided as a foreign minister We will meet again in private, but he is the emperor's personal guard, now he has been promoted to the commander of the guards, he is already on duty in the palace, occasionally he can meet Princess Han Ling from a distance.

Later on, King Yangchong often told him about the difference between Princess Hanling and ordinary women. Ye Geng always listened to it and expressed his agreement, but he was also in great pain. He thought that Princess Hanling was special. Anyone in Chongguo should understand.

He soon discovered that as time went by, the smiles on Princess Hanling's face became less and less, and even if there were, they were just polite and distant. He knew she was unhappy, and King Yang Chong often complained that he didn't know how to please her. Huanxin, he endured the pain in his heart to help make suggestions, hoping to make him happy, but with little success.

Later, he suddenly found that Princess Han Ling had regained her previous look, and the confident smile returned to her face. The princess was kept quiet in his own palace, and King Yang Chong also avoided it very much, and he was unwilling to tell others the reason for it.

How long has this kind of stalemate lasted, Ye Geng has not seen Princess Hanling for a long time, until he saw Princess Hanling again, he found that the other party was lifeless, and his figure had lost a lot. The brightly colored dresses have all turned into plain styles.

He looked heartbroken, but he couldn't step forward to inquire. He could see what happened between Princess Han Ling and King Yang Chong, but this belonged to the royal family's secrets, and he could not inquire about it.

I thought that the situation would gradually improve with the passage of time, but Ji Xinxi suddenly felt a burst of pain in his head, and Ye Geng's painful face flashed past, which seemed to be a memory he didn't want to recall again.

Finally, Ji Xinxi felt the discomfort dissipate, and the picture stabilized again. King Yang Chong looked gloomy at Ye Geng who was kneeling in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "Are you really going to do this? Give you one last chance."

Ye Geng raised his face, his formerly delicate face was now full of vicissitudes, and he solemnly replied: "I would like to guard the spirit of Princess Hanling. I was the one who brought her back from Nanzhan Kingdom. Your Majesty entrusted Wan Yao to protect her." Good princess, now that Princess Hanling has passed away, I wish to protect her peace after death with my whole body."

Princess Hanling is dead?Ji Xinxi was slightly surprised, thinking that this must have caused Ye Geng a lot of pain, so he didn't want to recall all of it just now.

King Yangchong also showed nostalgia when he heard him talking about the time when he welcomed the bride back then, but soon he turned around and sat back on the dragon chair to look at Ye Geng with frosty eyes, and said lightly: "You It can be seen that she is my concubine, and I will never allow other men to be by her side, even if she is dead now."

Ye Geng's body shook, he closed his eyes indifferently, and said calmly, "I understand."

King Yangchong looked at Ye Geng below for a long time, waved his hand and said, "I will grant what you asked for."

A relieved smile appeared on Ye Geng's face, two lines of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and he said slightly choked up: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission."

Ji Xinxi, who had witnessed the whole process, had mixed emotions in his heart, and he didn't know how to comment on this matter. Ye Geng was willing to give up being a man for the dead Princess Hanling, but he didn't have the courage to ask him when Princess Hanling laughed. It was time to take her away, but Ji Xinxi didn't have much time to express his feelings, and Xun Youling's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Ji Xinxi, wake up, what's the matter with you? You can still sleep at this time!"

Ji Xinxi opened his sore eyes, gently rubbed his temples and stood up, and found that he was still in the previous hall, but there were no guards around them, Qi Ye's people were all fighting the general below. It became a ball, and Ge Rong beside him still stood there without saying a word, and when she saw her wake up, she just glanced at her indifferently.

Over there, Jiang Qiao was treating the wound on Cheng Wenxing's body. The two were talking in a low voice, and she didn't have the heart to listen to what they were saying.

"Ji Xinxi, you are not stupid, are you? Don't scare me! This man will fall down as soon as he says anything." Xun Youling shook his hand in front of Ji Xinxi, and said worriedly.

Ji Xinxi stretched out his hand to hold Xun Youling's hand dangling in front of her, and said, "I'm fine." Then, looking at the figure in the hall swinging around with a knife, she asked after a while, "Qi Ye Woolen cloth?"

"Geng Sheng led some people to protect him and ran from the direction Jiang Qiao and I came from. Others are here to support the wraith to buy him time. We have too many wounded and you suddenly fell into a coma, so you didn't move. And that one didn't say anything." Xun Youling pointed to Ge Rong over there and glanced at his mouth.

Ji Xinxi looked at Ge Rong and walked over, Xun Youling immediately stopped her and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"It's nothing, just talk to her." Ji Xinxi patted Xun Youling's hand to comfort her.

"What do you have to say to her? Did you know each other before?" Xun Youling frowned and expressed puzzlement.

"I have nothing to talk to her about, but Xun Youling, you should have noticed that she is obviously not Ge Rong, an archaeologist, but someone from this ancient tomb. " While Ji Xinxi was speaking, Xun Youling frowned to express her acquiescence to her words.

Xun Youling sighed, let go of Ji Xinxi's hand, stood in front of Ge Rong with his hips akimbo, and said, "Tell me, my lord princess."

54 chapter

"En~ If Ji Xinxi noticed my identity, I wouldn't be surprised at all, but I'm curious, how did you know that I was her?" Ge Rong cast her eyes on Xun Youling with great interest.

Xun Youling scratched her hair, and said helplessly, "Although I don't know why, it seems that you all think I'm stupid, but I also have eyes and a brain, okay?"

"The soul-fixing needle is inserted into the body of a person before he is completely dead. Needless to say, it will definitely cause a lot of resentment, and the immobilized soul cannot leave. The resentment generated during such a long period of time must be increasing day by day. , The soul-fixing needle has not been removed, but I did not find your imprisoned spirit body on your body, and I didn't even have any resentment."

"So I deduce that it may be because after more than 1000 years of cultivation, your spirit body can be a certain distance away from the corpse after such a long period of cultivation, and at the same time, you have been guiding everyone to let me go to your coffin."

"I probably noticed the Taoist aura in me. I knew that only when I went to your coffin could I find the soul-fixing needle on your body and take it out. Originally, I didn't intend to do what you wanted, but obviously compared to Qi Ye , put the bet on you, maybe there is only a slight chance of survival."

"Before I couldn't figure out why you didn't have resentment on your body. If you cultivated by resentment, your personality would definitely not be so clear and rational. But when I saw the guy below, I understood. All the resentment you have for more than 1000 years is on that guy. On your body, the guy who put the soul needle in your body back then must have set up some kind of formation to direct all the resentment generated in your body to that guy."

"And once someone pulls out the soul-fixing needle on your body, he will be activated like some kind of automatic defense method, and because you have no resentment to absorb, you can only rely on Yin Qi to strengthen yourself for so many years, which makes you a Yin spirit."

Hearing Xun Youling's words, Ge Rong nodded in agreement and said, "Unexpectedly, you have more brains than you seem."

"Tsk, I've told you everything you want to know. I don't understand. Didn't you do all this just to get out of here? Now that you have pulled out the soul-fixing needle, why don't you leave?" Xun Youling Rolling his eyes, he asked back.

Ge Rong's hair was short, ear-length hair, but she stretched out her hand like a habitual movement to brush the hair behind her head. When she realized that the length was wrong, she retracted as if nothing had happened, and looked at the complaining man in the hall below. Ling said: "It's not that I don't want to leave, but this guy will definitely catch up. Instead of being caught up by him later, it's better to pack him here now, so as not to harm others."

"Haven't you talked to him?" Ji Xinxi interrupted suddenly.

Ge Rong glanced at him, and said with a blank expression: "From the time I discovered his existence, he has lost his mind, presumably it was just a means for that man to keep me in check."

Ji Xinxi frowned thoughtfully, and Xun Youling took over the conversation and said, "What do you want to do? Although Yin Ling has many advantages over other spirit bodies, but the speed of cultivation is too slow, it is impossible for you to beat him." his."

"I can't beat him, but aren't you and Ji Xinxi still here? She has a special physique, and I sent you to that tomb. What do you think I'm going to do? You should gain something in that tomb, right?" ?” Ge Rong said with a smile.

Xun Youling raised his left hand, pointed to the string of copper coins on his wrist and said, "You said this, did you send me to get this on purpose?"

"I remember that there used to be a Taoist priest there, but that guy didn't know what to do later, he failed to use his own tricks, and turned into that ghost, but I thought he was a bit of a Taoist guy before he was alive, and he would definitely stay. Something useful."

"Oh, what you said is easy. I almost lost my life in that tomb. Let alone performing Taoism now, I have lost both blood and blood. I am old enough to quarrel with you here. The sky has eyes, and besides, my family, Ji Xinxi, hasn't figured out what's wrong with her body, what do you expect from her?" Xun Youling looked at Ge Rong in front of him speechlessly, with a sneer on his face.

Finally, Ge Rong's expression looked a little stiff, then she frowned and thought for a while, then tilted her head and said seriously: "This joke is not funny at all."

"Are you kidding me again?!!!" Xun Youling only felt a string in her mind snap, and she was so angry that she immediately wanted to cut her tongue and bleed to die with Ge Rong.

Ji Xinxi hurriedly hugged Xun Youling who was about to rush over to Ge Rong desperately from behind, and said, "Since you now know that we are not of much use, you must have prepared a second attack, right?"

Ge Rong frowned and leaned in front of Ji Xinxi, and asked, "Do you really have something special about yourself that you don't know about?"

Ji Xinxi shook his head, Ge Rong turned his face indifferently, and said: "I have been trapped here for more than 1000 years, and I finally managed to catch up with today's exit. This is the last effort. If it doesn't work, it's better than being trapped here to death. Where did the backhand come from?"

Hearing this, Ji Xinxi took a deep breath, let go of Xun Youling's hand, and said, "Xun Youling, bite her."

"Scared!!!" The gunshots in the hall gradually died down, and the ground fell to the ground. The rest of Seventh Master couldn't stop the wraith, and they were all thrown to the ground in a blink of an eye.

"Xun Youling, let me ask in advance, what is the approximate level of this resentful spirit?" Ji Xinxi asked with his eyes empty.

Xun Youling put his arm on Ji Xinxi's shoulder, stroked his chin and replied, "Level [-] starts."

Obviously without the obstruction of the following people, the attention of the resentful spirit was shifted to their side, Xun Youling made a gesture of invitation to the other side, and said in his mouth: "Sister Ling, now we can still be counted as combat power. It's you, go."

Ge Rong glanced at the wraith, nodded and smiled, "It's easy to say."

As soon as the words were finished, she turned around and ran away without stopping at all. The remaining few people watched her operation with dumbfounded eyes, and followed her in the next moment.

Xun Youling roared angrily from behind: "If you want to run, why don't you tell me sooner, otherwise we'll all be at the gate by now."

The strong wind came from behind, and it can be seen that the wraith was chasing very quickly. While Xun Youling and the others were running wildly, Ge Rong, who was running in the front, suddenly twisted at a strange angle, and then turned back to charge. come over.

Seeing that she was about to collide with Xun Youling and the two who were following her, she tapped her toes, and she just jumped over the heads of the two, met the wraith behind her, and lightly pressed her palm on the other's chest.

The wraith didn't have time to react, so it was firmly pressed down by Ge Rong's palm. Amidst a loud noise, the wraith was heavily pressed to the ground, and the surrounding ground shook for a while.

The few people who were still running were unsteady and stopped, Jiang Qiao and Cheng Wenxing wanted to go again, but seeing that Ji Xinxi and Xun Youling had stopped moving, they asked anxiously: "Why don't you leave? "

"If the princess doesn't lead the way, do you know where the exit is? And if she can't fight, we won't have a chance to fight back when we face this wraith alone. Why don't we see if we can help at this time." Ji Xin Xi replied that she actually had another thought in her heart, but she didn't say it out loud.

Hearing this, Jiang Qiao didn't leave, and stepped back from Cheng Wenxing, looking at this side from a distance.

Ge Rong, who succeeded in one blow over there, didn't give Wraith Ling any time to fight back, and blasted down several palms one after another. The black energy around Wraith Spirit was scattered for a while, and finally roared, and the huge air flow forced him back. Ge Rong slapped the ground with the palm of his hand and rose flatly, slashing at Ge Rong with a knife.

Ge Rong's strength as Yin Ling is a few grades behind this wraith, and this wraith was a martial artist before his death, while Princess Hanling in Ge Rong's body is a princess of the royal family. Not on this wraith.

After several rounds, Ge Rong gradually became weaker. The yin energy around her was different from the gray yin energy she had seen before, and more like a white mist. Under her efforts to parry, she was beaten back and forth.

"Ji Xinxi, I don't think our princess can last long. Do you think we should run now, or go up to help?" Xun Youling turned his head and asked Ji Xinxi who was beside him.

Ji Xinxi pursed her lips, over there Ge Rong had already been defeated by Wraith Ling strangled her neck and pushed her to the ground, Wraith Ling raised the long knife in his hand and was about to stab her in the heart, the yin energy around her was gone. As strong as it was at the beginning, she was so overwhelmed by the resentment from Wraith Ling that she couldn't break free, suddenly a hint of relief appeared in her eyes, as if she didn't intend to resist any more.

"I'll go, it's time to go. Hey, Ji Xinxi, what are you doing?" Xun Youling was touching the copper coin in his left hand when Ji Xinxi suddenly stepped forward.

Before Ji Xinxi had time to explain to Xun Youling, he shouted, "Ye Geng, stop!"

The long knife that the resentful spirit swung down suddenly stopped in mid-air, his eyes flashed red, and the resentment beside him was erratic, Ji Xinxi clenched his fists tightly, his palms were full of sweat, she also wanted to Take a gamble, bet that the memory she saw in her sleep before, the infatuated Ye Geng in it was the wraith in front of her.

Ge Rong, who was lying on the ground, also looked at Ji Xinxi in surprise. It seemed that she was very surprised that she knew the name. By the side, a syllable sounded hoarsely: "Who?"

"You can't kill her. If you kill her, you will regret it. What you couldn't give her back then, you can give her now." Ji Xinxi continued.

Xun Youling held the copper coin, stood behind her, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Hey, I understand now why everyone says that talking is the most powerful. I have seen it today. When will you order it, Xiao Ji?" this skill?"

"...Shut up, you're not her." Ye Geng was obviously irritated by Ji Xinxi's words, and he raised the long knife in his hand and was about to rush over.

Ji Xinxi's face turned pale, and he suppressed the desire to escape, and stepped forward and said: "The only thing I want is freedom! Ye Huwei, I don't know if you can afford it?"
