In the next few days, Xiang Shu pretended to be familiar with the road conditions and gradually figured out the pattern of the outbreak of coercion.
The time when this coercion breaks out is indeed as Lan Xiu said, once every day at midnight and noon. The day is mild and short, and the night is violent and long.
It seems that the Demon King Xue Su deliberately suppressed it in order not to affect the attendants in the building. He only vented his emotions at night when there were less servants in the building.
However, as she observed it day by day, she discovered something else.
The time when the pressure breaks out at night is increasing at an extremely slow rate, and the same is true for the pressure during the day, and it is not stable.
Although when the pressure breaks out during the day, Xue Su Demon King suppresses it to a mild level most of the time. Occasionally, it loses control, and the range of the pressure burst will briefly exceed the red *** zone.
As a result, many attendants must have been occasionally frightened by the pressure and even fell into coma.
With this in mind, Xiang Shu casually inquired among the maids, and sure enough he heard many examples of maids falling into coma.
In the evening, she returned to her residence in the side hall and looked at the bright moon dormitory from a distance, with a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.
Yue Jiao had been recovering from her injury for more than a month, so Lan Xiu must be anxious when she came back. She thought that on the first day she entered the building, Qing'er went to the alchemy room to get medicine.
She has been here for six days.
Tomorrow is the seventh day.
At midnight the next day, Qing'er hurriedly left Yuejiao Garden, and Xiang Shu immediately followed in secret.
Although there is a distance from Yuejiao Garden to Alchemy Room, Qing'er's visit will never take more than an hour.
In other words, after Qing'er gets the elixir, he can return to Yuejiao Garden before Si hour, which is far from noon.
Fortunately, Xiang Shu had anticipated this.
She secretly followed Qing'er until Qing'er passed a critical point with the Red Blood Realm. Then she waved her sleeves and swept away the gentle coercion retained in the previous two days on Qing'er.
The coercion suddenly came over, and Qing'er's cultivation was low and he couldn't bear it. He immediately rolled his eyes and fainted.
Xiang Shen dodged and captured Qing'er, then hid her aside and waited until the pressure broke out in the northeast corner at six o'clock. Then he took her out and placed her on the road where the pressure had just passed.
At the same time, inside the bright moon's bedroom.
Lan Xiu frowned and walked back and forth in front of the dormitory door, unable to hide the anxiety in her eyes.
Qing'er went to get medicine, but she didn't come back after leaving for nearly two hours. How could she not be in a hurry?
Fortunately, soon, a maid returned from outside with news.
"When Qing'er was passing through the back garden, he was accidentally knocked into a coma by coercion. He was just sent to the hospital for treatment. The doctor said he was fine and will wake up in two days."
After saying that, the maid presented a pill bottle, "This is the pill that Qing'er brought."
"People safe is good."
Lan Xiu took the elixir bottle and breathed a sigh of relief, no doubt that he was there.
The range of the explosion of Wang Zun's coercion varies from time to time. Over the years, she has often been unlucky enough to be knocked unconscious. She is no longer surprised.
However, Qing'er had gone out in time, and she could have come back before Wang Zun's pressure broke out. What happened that delayed her on the road for at least half an hour?
Qing'er was now in a coma, and Lan Xiu had no way of asking, so she had to suppress her thoughts temporarily and walked into the palace with the elixir bottle.
"Your Highness, the elixir is here."
Princess Yuejiao sat on the bed with a solemn look on her face: "I heard what was said outside, you can't take this elixir."
Lan Xiu realized something immediately, her face changed slightly, she immediately opened the elixir bottle and checked it, then she looked relieved and said, "Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with this elixir."
"No problem, it can't be used."
Yue Jiao shook her head, "The timing of Qing'er's coma was too coincidental. I don't know how many people passed this pill along the way. Maybe there was some trick that we couldn't detect?"
Lan Xiu thought it made sense when he heard it, and simply threw the elixir bottle aside and said, "Your Highness, I will go get the medicine myself right now."
"No!"
Yue Jiao reached out and grabbed Lan Xiu's hand, "Qing'er is unconscious, and you are the only one left by my side. If the other party wants to lure the tiger away from the mountain, and you leave again, wouldn't we fall into a trap?"
"Your Highness
..."
Lan Xiu frowned when she heard this. She just felt that His Highness was too sensitive after the attack. Speaking of this, it was just Qing'er's bad luck. How could it have anything to do with the attack?
But since the master said so, she could only stay obediently.
Qing'er's coma is not a big deal, but His Highness's injury is serious and cannot be delayed.
Lan Xiu thought about it for a moment, but had no other choice but to order someone to call Xiang Shen.
Xiang Shu had been waiting at the residence of the side hall for a long time. After hearing the news, he immediately followed the attendants to the door of the dormitory.
Lan Xiu was waiting at the door. When she saw her coming, she immediately came up to her and pulled her aside. She asked quickly, "It's been six or seven days since you entered the building. Do you know the topography of the building by heart?"
Xiang Shen nodded immediately, "I know it by heart."
"Well."
Lan Xiu took out a jade token and handed it to Xiang Shu, "Take the token to the alchemy room and get a bottle of heart-protecting elixir. Remember to avoid the area where the pressure breaks out."
"I go?"
Xiang Shen pretended to be confused, "Isn't Sister Qing'er going?"
Lan Xiu looked helpless, "Qing'er took a bottle of elixir, but His Highness didn't want to use it.
The alchemy room can only refine one bottle of high-grade heart-protecting elixir every seven days. There should be no flawless elixirs there, and there should be quite a few of inferior quality. Go get a bottle.
Remember to avoid the coercive area and come back as soon as possible. "
"knew."
Xiang Shen nodded in agreement, turned around and left quickly.
She walked very quickly, and it only took her half an hour to get a bottle of elixir from the alchemy room, and left straight away.
On the way back, she was also very fast, but she deliberately took the wrong path that she had chosen earlier and was very easy to get sidetracked. She deviated directly from the original direction and headed towards the northeast corner.
At this moment, the coercion was erupting, and the area shrouded by the coercion was empty, not even a ghost could be seen. .
Xiang Shen walked unimpeded and came directly to a vast garden at the northeast end. From a distance, he saw a huge snow-white tiger monster lying in the garden.
The first time she saw Bai Hu, Xiang Shu was immediately sure that she was the mother of her eldest brother Wang Tuo.
They were so similar. If the eldest brother were still Bai Hu, he would be carved out of the same mold as her mother.
Moreover, looking at the eldest brother's mother in her original form, with a round belly, it is clear that she has been pregnant for a long time and is about to give birth. She cannot transform into a human form until she gives birth to her baby son.
Any strange illnesses or injuries are all fake. The two coercive attacks a day are clearly caused by fetal movement.
Are the people from the Pantheon here just for the Demon King’s young son?
But doesn’t the Pantheon always care little about the demon clan? Why did you take it so seriously this time?
Her thoughts were racing in her mind, and she was about to step forward and tell Demon King Xue Su directly, when she suddenly felt a vague sense of spying sweep across her body.
The person who must be watching her secretly is the maid with closed senses that Lan Xiu mentioned.
Doesn’t it mean that the demon clan with closed five senses cannot practice?
How could she sense that there was an aura of demonic energy hidden in this spying intention?
She felt a little shuddered in her heart, and immediately stopped her thoughts of confessing, pretending to be innocent and harmless, and walked into the garden with a confused look on her face.
Sensing someone approaching, Xue Su Demon King suddenly opened his eyes, and saw that the person who came in was just a little girl as big as a bean sprout, and the anger in his eyes suddenly froze.
There was a hint of fear on Xiang Shu's face, but more of it was curiosity. She walked up to Bai Hu and asked bluntly:
"Are you the demon pet raised by His Highness? I have never seen a big cat as beautiful as you."
Hearing this, Demon King Xue Su laughed dumbly.
Where did this little girl come in by mistake? She didn't even recognize her?
After being speechless, Demon King Xue Su finally remembered that his pressure had not yet been confiscated.
She was stunned and asked instead, "Don't you feel uncomfortable being close to me?"
"You haven't answered my question yet."
Xiang Shen snorted and waved his hands freely, "My mother said that I am in very good health. Why am I feeling so inexplicably uncomfortable?"
As soon as these words came out, Demon King Xue Su was even more surprised.
This little girl is actually a demon with closed senses just like Dian Cui?
Could it be that Wen Shen came here again?
No, probably not. Otherwise, this little girl wouldn't mistake her for a demon pet.
Thinking this, she felt a little relaxed and asked gently: "What's your name?"
"I am Princess Yuejiao's new maid, my name is Wuyue."
Xiang Shu put his hands on his hips and said, "I can't tell you anymore. I have to go deliver medicine to Her Royal Highness the Princess. Big Cat, can you point me in the direction? I'm going the wrong way."
"Sending medicine?"
Demon King Xue Su was slightly startled, "What kind of medicine are you sending?"
"you do not know?"
Xiang Shu looked surprised, and then he seemed to remember something. He looked around cautiously, then he leaned close to the big cat's ear and whispered:
"Sister Lan said you can't talk about this. Let me tell you, you can't tell others."
Demon King Xue Su laughed secretly in his heart, finding this girl particularly interesting. He followed Xiang Shu's suggestion and said, "I understand, please tell me quickly."
Xiang Shen immediately told the whole situation about the bright moon, and finally sighed: "I used to envy His Highness for being so pampered and well-off. But after hearing what Sister Lan said, I felt that His Highness is also living in fear and has nothing good to do."
While she was chanting, she saw Demon King Xue Su frowning. Knowing that she had achieved her goal, she said no more, and then urged: "Big Cat, why are you so stunned? How on earth are you going to get out?"
Demon King Xuesu came back to his senses and raised his palm to point to the path to one side: "Go out from there and follow the path to the south, and you can get out."
Xiang Shu immediately showed joy and said, "You're so kind, Big Cat. I'm leaving now. I'll come see you tomorrow when I have time."
After saying that, Xiang Shu didn't wait for Demon King Xue Su to reply and trotted away.
Bai Hu looked at Xiang Shu's leaving figure, feeling a little reluctant for some reason.
But soon, she put away this trace of reluctance and said lightly: "Diancui, did you hear everything this girl said?"
As soon as these words came out, a half-demon from the snake race slithered over in the grass on one side of the garden, twisted his body, knelt down in front of the Xuesu Demon King, coiled his snake tail, and bowed his head:
"Your Majesty, my servant is unaware that Your Highness Yuejiao is injured."
"You did make an oversight."
Demon King Xuesu's tone was slightly cold, "You have stayed with me for fifteen years, haven't you learned how to be a great maid?"
Diancui took a deep breath and said, "I will send the best doctors to treat His Highness Yuejiao's injuries."
"No need."
Demon King Xue Su opened his mouth and spat out a green bead and flew to Dian Cui, "Send this thing over and tell that girl that since I have brought her to live in Si Lou, no one can touch her."
