"Her soul is damaged."
A moment of silence then appeared inside the carriage of the carriage. Even Xiuyu Liushang, who was sitting on the side and had been posing as if he was about to cry, opened his eyes wide. The great magician placed the body in the carriage. Then he also put away his staff, pointed at the face of Violet who looked like Sleeping Beauty, and said: "I have carefully checked her physical condition, and also discussed it remotely with several other members of the Seven-person Council for a long time. , except for the dissenter Mallock and Rex, who was not in contact, others also came to the same conclusion as me."
"Of course, the reason for reaching this conclusion is largely because we can't use magic theory to explain everything that happened to her." After saying this, Christine turned to look at Duan Qing, who was still expressionless. Face: "So we can only use some expressions that only the Destiny Weavers can use."
"Destiny Weaver...soul...ha." Taking a deep breath, Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes became heavy: "Is it irreparable damage?"
"Not only is there a loss of memory, some of her personality and emotions have also changed." She said these shocking words with a calm face, and Christine stretched out her arms towards Violet lying on the ground. He said with his own hand: "Maybe words can't explain it clearly, so I'll use a more intuitive way."
The elegant and ice-crystal-like palm, with the radiance of magic, slowly swept over the body in front of several people. The purple-haired figure who had been unconscious for some reason also followed Christine's hand to brush it. He opened his eyes again with this movement, and then sat up from the ground little by little. Different from the maturity and elegance shown in the past, there was only endless confusion in the eyes of this purple-haired woman at this time. Her eyes seemed to be absent-minded and kept swaying left and right in the carriage, and finally fell on the person who had never spoken. Duan Qing's body: "..."
"Look, this is your problem." Pointing to Violet's puppet-like performance, Christine explained with a low smile: "Ever since she woke up, she has been in this absent state. No matter how I tried to communicate with her, all I got was a blank stare with no response."
"But she seems to know you." She looked at Duan Qing, who raised his head and was looking at Violet, and extended her palm behind him: "Is there any connection between you two? ?”
"...Maybe." Duan Qing finally said his first words since his silence, and his brows slowly wrinkled: "But I may not have time to solve these problems now."
"The Wizards' Council may give her appropriate punishment based on what she did before, but the Wizards' Council doesn't want to lose a great person like her." The whole body moved behind Violet, and Christine's The voice also became serious: "So...if possible, I hope you can use your power and methods to treat her."
"I have no such obligation." The voice paused for a long time, and Duan Qing responded like a murmur: "You'd better not place your hopes on me."
"You were an important participant in the previous battles and trials, and you should be responsible for her." Kristine shook her head: "As for Hope - just the title of Wiggins' disciple is enough." Let’s give him enough trust.”
"..."
"Since you have already saved her life once, there is nothing wrong with continuing to lend a helping hand, right?" Looking at Duan Qing's face that fell silent again, the smile at the corner of Christine's mouth also became He is getting more and more prosperous: "Mr. Linyuan Duanshui, who is still unwilling to reveal his identity as a savior?"
As if cooperating with Christine's words, Violet, who was half sitting on the ground, nodded her head with a confused expression. Her eyes that originally showed a trace of anger also disappeared. He closed his eyes again in surprise, and fell into Christine's arms with her limp body: "Okay, let her rest for a while."
"She, why did she faint again?" Xue Ling Huan Bing on the side made an even more surprised voice: "What did you do?"
"I just froze her nerves with cold air." She said the jaw-dropping words casually, and then Christine put away her hands covered with cold air again: "But this time I only used a small amount of magic power. She should wake up in a few hours."
"I'll leave it to you then." She placed Violet back on the ground of the carriage, then blinked her eyes at Duan Qing: "Remember to take good care of her. This will be very important for your trip to the imperial capital." It will be beneficial.”
"...You, aren't you going to the Imperial Capital?"
Looking at the ice-blue great magician slowly getting up, Xueling Huanbing, who had just wanted to speak out, swallowed back what he originally wanted to say: "Stop monitoring us anymore?"
"If you want to attract my attention again, you must at least reach the level of ability you had before your strength declined - well, that is, the level where you can afford the divine sword Luoyang again." Looking at the man behind Xue Ling Huan Bing The long sword wrapped in cloth signaled, and Christine slowly moved to the door of the carriage: "At that time, I might find time to continue to pay attention to you."
"Speaking of which, what is the purpose of your coming to Santreuse Province?" Duan Qing, who was still sitting, suddenly asked: "Is it to monitor the actions between Violet and the Restoration?"
"Of course not, but -" she reached out and pushed open the compartment door in front of her. Kristine, who was facing the sunshine, suddenly turned her head and cast a curious look: "You should also know this matter."
"You have seen a person claiming to be a dragon girl in Kemparo Canyon, right?"
The sudden roar then appeared in the ears of everyone present, and was accompanied by an ice-blue cold air. The blue ice shadow gradually disappeared with the breeze outside the carriage, leaving behind the last question of Kelly. Siting then seemed to have no intention of waiting for Duan Qing and others to answer, and just disappeared in front of everyone with her final queen-like laughter. Breathing a slight sigh of relief, the white-haired woman named Xue Ling Huan Bing then turned back to look at the face of Violet who was unconscious on the ground with a rather troubled look, but her words of inquiry were replaced by Duan Qing's seriousness the next moment. Interrupted by his gaze, he retreated to Whispering Liushang with a rather troubled expression on his face: "It seems that guy has some conscience and knows that I have bigger troubles that need to be solved now..."
"Now that the outsiders have left, it's time to talk about our own affairs."
Duan Qing, who clenched his fists and pressed hard on his knees, raised his head and stared at the whispering man huddled in the corner: "Please explain in detail what you just mentioned."
"You, you -" he opened his eyes wide, and a moment of surprise flashed in his murmuring gaze: "So you are really still alive?"
"I can even save this person lying on the ground, let alone you who have already spoken for this reason."
With a stern and gloomy look, he suppressed the blue-haired female swordsman's attempt to sit up. Duan Qing slowly folded his fists on his chin: "Go ahead."
"What's wrong with Ninglan?"
****************************
The sound of wheels kept passing by his ears. Facing the warm wind, Xue Ling Huan Bing yawned lazily. His eyes that were about to close became a little clearer with the tears squeezed out. points, and then showed a few helpless looks - since the new round of topic spread in the carriage, the woman who was originally hidden in the carriage by Duan Qing now took on the important task of temporary coachman. Although she had some idea of what Duan Qing and Lou Yushang wanted to talk about, the rest of the topic was blocked by him and her with their eyes.
snort.
I'm not worried, I'm here first.
Such thoughts flashed through her mind, and Xue Ling Huanbing's hand pulling the reins of the carriage tightened slightly in response to her disdainful curling of her lips, while her ears perked up in response to her involuntary listening action. , gradually approaching the carriage door. The conversation between Duan Qing and Xu Yu Liushang also gradually appeared in her hearing as she moved closer. From time to time, it was occasionally mixed with the man's deep voice and the woman's whispered answers, but she didn't actually see it. When she saw this scene, she could never imagine what the dialogue between the two people would be like now: "...In other words, since the last time you took a risk to save Mengzhu, she has never appeared again. Is it right?"
"She rescued Mengzhu. The little girl admitted this personally. We were ambushed at that time and almost gave up later."
"Didn't I ask Jian Beidong to rescue you?"
"He came in his modified hover car, and in the end he only took me away. As for Ninglan... we didn't even know until a long time later that she had also sneaked in there."
"That wasn't something she did intentionally. It was probably just the result of her staying in the Duan family... So what's going on now? Did Duan Qingnian do it?"
"We were unable to contact her afterwards, and she never appeared in the game again. We sent people to Duan's house to inquire about the news, but in the end they were excused on the grounds of 'family matters'."
"She is still a member of the Duan family in name, so her act of secretly lending a helping hand to me will definitely be regarded as rebellion by Duan Qingnian."
Clenching his fists together again, Duan Qing gritted his teeth and said, "When my father assigned Ninglan to me, that guy kept hinting at something to me. Although I don't know what he was doing during my absence. How did Zhong Ninglan escape his clutches, but now that it's at this point..."
"We have no other way. We can only apply pressure from the outside." Xu Yu Liushang replied in a very soft voice: "I and some people are working hard, hoping to use the power of the alliance to break down the authority in that guy's hands."
"...It is indeed a way to get rid of the grass and roots, but it is already too late." Duan Qing's eyebrows and the wrinkles on his forehead gradually gathered together: "It has been so long, and we can't even find out her safety... …”
"She should still be alive, because the spring of 2136 has not yet arrived." Xuyu Liushang replied in a low voice: "According to family rules, such things often need to be resolved and announced at the family meeting."
"Unless that Duan Qingnian dares to take action privately, he can only wait for the annual meeting." Her voice became even deeper when she said this: "I ruined his kidnapping plan, and now I have become the one who knows many of his illegal secrets. Important witness... He who has taken over the power of the family will definitely get rid of the last weed in the family that is loyal to you."
"...Family meeting, right?"
The last bit of light flashed in his eyes, and Duan Qing gritted his teeth hard: "How long is it until now?"
"The New Year is approaching. According to the rules of your Duan family, there are only about ten days left." His voice became a little more lonely, and he shrank his head and replied: "I, I'm sorry, Ninglan They have helped me so much secretly, but I can’t do anything..."
"At least you told me about this matter." Duan Qing's voice softened a bit: "And... you still have to do the next thing."
"Us?" The blue-haired swordswoman, whose body was still a little stiff, moved uneasily, and then suddenly raised her head as if she realized something: "What about you? You still refuse to come forward?"
"Even if I'm not afraid of the trouble my coming forward will bring to me, I still have to consider the many dangers it may bring to you." Duan Qing let out a long sigh: "And..."
"I can't come forward."
He said these words, and then fell into a dazed state again, as if he sensed something unusual in his murmurings. Then he stopped the action of opening his mouth just now, and looked at it with surprised eyes. The familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of him: "You... you haven't mentioned anything about the last time. Could it be that you..."
"Let's talk about other things." Duan Qing shook his head and interrupted the other party again: "For example - where did you hide Maggie?"
"... Leng Yulihun and the others are not capable of hiding such a person. They can only follow her after she has recovered her memory. It seems that she wants to return to Tania. She has recently arrived near Felong County... …”
"Felon County? Are you sure she wants to return to Tanya? Doesn't she want to go to Zaraha City to have a look - hmm."
The harsh sound of wheel friction accompanied by the screams when the horses stopped appeared in Duan Qing's ears, interrupting what he just wanted to say. The warning sound belonging to Xue Ling Huan Bing also sounded in Duan Qing's ears. The edge of the car in front of the two people was heard, and then players approaching quickly shouted: "Stop!"
"We need to check!"
