"Hiss..." He raised his hand to cover his painful forehead and slowly opened his eyes.
In front of him, it was still the darkness that he was already familiar with. The cold stone pillow rested under her body, and the brocade quilt was extremely thin.
"Sir, you're awake." Suddenly, a respectful voice came from outside.
It's his bodyguard. Hearing the sound, Chechi got up from the bed and put on the robe hanging on the wall: "What are you reporting?"
He walked to the stone chess scale and sat down slowly. There is steaming tea next to it, which must have been brought by the guard just now.
However, there were two teacups on the table, and he was slightly startled.
"Sir, the owl flag envoy is here. He is at the gate of the city now. Do you want to go and greet him..." said the guard kneeling at the door.
It seems that what is supposed to come will come. Chechi smiled bitterly upon hearing this, and then put down the teacup he picked up.
He stood up from the stone bench and waved to the guard: "Go. Since he is here, why should I hide."
The hall on the ground floor behind the fortress gate was also very dark, although it was lit with candles. The furnishings here are deserted. Although it is nominally a reception hall, it has actually been neglected for a long time.
The guard asked Xiao Wuye to go up and wait, but he refused. Compared to the above, he was observing this place with great interest, pacing back and forth, waiting for Chechi to hear the sound and come down to meet him.
Soon, those familiar steps gradually fell into his ears along with the echoes in the corridor.
"...The waves of the river cover the roots of the clouds, and the chess players knock on the dangerous poles to bury the traces of sorrow. The long night is cold in the deep pool water, and a few drops of Tao break the lonely sleeping soul."
Then the same familiar figure came into view.
As if he had never changed, Xiao Wuye couldn't help but sneer as he looked at his colleagues who were gradually walking out of the darkness, his expressions unchanged.
"It seems that after being stationed in Black Water Plains for such a long time, your state of mind has also become assimilated." After listening to the poem he slowly recited, Xiao Wuye put his hands behind his back and smacked his lips lightly, but there was no concern on his face.
Chechi heard the sound and walked into the hall. When he saw Xiao Wuye, his expression didn't waver at all.
"It's a long and cold night, and I'm bored, and I'll just do whatever I want." He replied in the same tone, "The owl flag envoy came in great numbers, but I was slow to pick him up."
"Since we are colleagues, why bother being sarcastic." Xiao Wuye walked towards him, "It's all for the film master's dominance, but the division of labor is different."
Chechi nodded when he heard the sound, and turned around when he saw him coming this way.
"Let's go up together." He said indifferently.
"As the guest does, the host does as he pleases." Xiao Wuye winked and followed.
The interior of the Blackwater Sky Barrier is winding and huge, lonely but majestic. Following Che Diwensheng up the stairs, Xiao Wuye stroked the water drops hanging on the dark stone wall with an unpredictable look.
The two of them walked up, and the guards had prepared hot tea and seats for them. The lights in the not-so-large stone chamber were brighter, reflecting the slow rotation and sinking of the tea leaves in the cup.
Chechi heard the sound and led him in, and the two of them sat down one after another. After a short pause, Chechi heard the sound and took the lead in picking up the tea cup and asked: "I don't know why the owl flag envoy came here this time."
Xiao Wuye nodded, as if thinking about how to express it.
"I came here this time to tell you that your free days are numbered." He also picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"Oh?" Chechi's forehead trembled secretly when he heard the sound.
Xiao Wuye glanced at him and narrowed his eyes: "It means that since you have been lurking here for so long, the Shadow Master will be able to see the results soon."
It seemed to be a word of congratulation, but to Che Di Wensheng's ears, he felt that Xiao Wuye had an overtone.
But he quickly abandoned this idea. If he cares about it now, he will be confused. Xiao Wuye and the Shadow Master probably don't know his plan yet.
"Really..." He turned his neck and spoke calmly, "It seems like time flies by very quickly."
He avoided the important issues and did not respond directly. It's just that the film owner has to use the power of the navy here now, so he still can't help but be a little frightened that the storm is about to come.
"It's not too soon. The Shadow Master has been fully prepared for the revenge that has been buried for so many years." Xiao Wuye was calm with a burning feeling, as if he was looking forward to it, "Finally, the Shadow Master's hegemony is about to begin. "
Che Di heard the sound and knew Xiao Wuye's personality, so he didn't answer his words. But he is also looking forward to it, because on that day, the Avengers will not be the only one.
"Therefore, for this moment, the naval force under your command will not allow any mistakes." Xiao Wuye's tone quickly turned cold, and he looked to the side to see Che Di Wen Sheng, who didn't seem very excited.
After hearing the sound, Chechi adjusted his mentality and nodded as usual: "In that case, I understand. Blackwater Sky Barrier is on standby at any time."
Xiao Wuye snorted from his nose, but there was no displeasure on his face. He blew on the hot air from the tea and took a few sips in silence.
Putting down the tea cup, he slowly took out a letter from his arms and pressed it on the table: "Okay. This is the arrangement of the film owner. You just need to act according to it."
Chechi heard the sound and held down the letter with two fingers, dragging it towards him. He didn't open it in front of him, but put it in his arms.
"The strength of the Black Water Sky Barrier is key, and no unauthorized actions are allowed." Xiao Wuye added without any hesitation.
Chechi still nodded after hearing the sound. The corners of his eyes were beating secretly, but he couldn't see it under the backlight.
This batch of his navy was indeed Jiuche Xiaoying's most deeply buried arrows. It seems that the movie owner is also afraid of him, so he asked Xiao Wuye to deliver such a signal.
After all, the other flag envoys have the power to act independently, but he has been ordered to stay, and now he is ordered to go out.
He smiled secretly in his heart, but felt a little desolate. Like a bound puppet, this sharp weapon of his has to be used with such caution even as the Shadow Master.
Seeing that he had no other emotions, Xiao Wuye felt secretly happy. He coughed twice and said slowly: "In this case, the Shadow Master's explanation is over."
After hearing this, Chechi Wensheng planned to get up and at the same time prepare to call someone to see off the guest.
"Hey, I'm not busy." But Xiao Wuye showed a strange smile and held his wrist.
Chechi's face changed slightly when he heard the sound, and he sat down again after he had just half-rised.
Seeing his puzzled look, Xiao Wuye didn't rush to speak. He drank the tea in the cup, wiped his mouth, and then said: "Long time no see, I plan to catch up with you this time."
Chechi frowned upon hearing the sound. He and this lackey of the shadow master had no relationship at all. They were just doing things as colleagues, and they were not close colleagues at all.
"Reminiscing about old times, I don't think it's necessary." He simply refused.
But Xiao Wuye didn't end the conversation just like that. He went further and said: "Why are we so different? Although we are not close personal friends, I still admire you very much."
"Appreciate it?" Chedi raised his eyebrows after hearing his words.
Xiao Wuye nodded very sincerely. He raised the corners of his mouth and changed into a more comfortable posture: "Among the four of us, you are the one I admire the most."
