081 Night exploration of the Snake Emperor’s palace
On November 11, I went to the Albizia Julibrissin Forest to get a bucket of spring water. I left the Snake Kingdom through the Gate of Desire and walked to the place where the spring water was placed. I saw that the bamboo tube containing the spring water that was placed last time was half covered by snow.
Eleven dug out the bamboo tube and opened it, only to see that the spring water inside had frozen. Obviously, the other party had not come to get water.
Since Marquis Pingyang was poisoned, she still sent water once a month, but in the past three months, the water she sent had not been taken away once.
Eleven sighed secretly.
Marquis Pingyang was poisoned and could no longer come to the Albizia Julibrissin forest to get water, but Xiaodao always needed water to suppress the miasma.
But they stopped coming to get water, which showed that they hated and cared about her so much that they stopped even taking the water she fetched.
In the past three months, Shiyi wandered around the Albizia Julibrissin forest from time to time, and no one from outside the Snake Country broke in to get water.
I don’t know what method they used to suppress the miasma in Xiao Dao’s body.
On November 11, he still replaced the old spring water with the new spring water and went back in a hurry while carrying the bamboo tube.
I walked down the mountain and bought a lyre in the town. I sat down by the green pool under the waterfall and let out the little dragon.
Looking at the green water pool in front of him, and then at the little dragon next to him, he felt a little dazed.
Putting the harp on the bluestone and sitting against the stone, I vaguely felt like the woman in green clothes playing the harp in the dream was listening to the music.
The little dragon is young and active. He has been in a bad mood recently and rarely plays with them. Now he comes out and can't sit down. He only stays for a while and then goes around killing flowers and grass.
Eleven's hallucinations dissipated. Looking at the little Jiao'er playing blindly, a smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth, but the smile soon froze at his lips. He looked at the green pool in front, and his mind was filled with thoughts. It was full of the man's chatting and laughing, as well as the sound of his piano.
Her slender jade fingers touched the strings, and as if they did not need to go through her brain, they lightly hooked and pressed the strings. The music came out of its own accord, which was exactly the music she often heard in her dreams.
Eleven raised his hand in surprise and looked at his fingers blankly. It turned out that he could play the piano.
After being stunned for a while, Eleven touched the strings again and played all the memorized songs.
When the music was finished, Eleven discovered that except for the song he heard in his dream, all the songs played were the ones played by Marquis Pingyang.
After Eleven realized this, he smacked his hand fiercely, stopped playing, called Xiao Jiao'er back, and abandoned the piano.
When Eleven walked away, a man appeared from behind a tree not far away. He was dressed in black and his perfect body was made tall and slender.
The thin lips pursed slightly, the handsome and resolute face was cold and unkind, the ice pool-like eyes looked at the retreating figure of Eleven, and the depths of his eyes were filled with loneliness.
After a long while, he walked towards the blue stone beside the pool, gently touched the long harp on the stone with his fingers, smiled bitterly, and whispered to himself, "She cares about her third brother in her heart."
Looking up, I saw that it was already late. I rolled up my long harp and floated away.
Half a year has passed.
Ren Shiyi tried his best, but there was no news about Xiao Qi.
Gradually, the extravagant hope in Eleven's heart also disappeared, and he finally accepted his fate. Xiao Qi was no longer there.
And the Snake Marquis did not come back. He really disappeared from the world. Yue Ji and the Great Wizard reached a new tacit understanding, so the Snake Marquis was slowly forgotten.
Spring water is sent out of the Albizia Julibrissin Forest every month in November, but in the past six months, the spring water sent out has never been taken away.
She sneaked into Yue Ji and the great wizard's residence countless times, but ultimately failed to find a solution to the snake king's poison.
Several times, when Eleven sneaked into the great wizard's residence, she vaguely felt that someone else was hiding in the dark, but that person's skills were far superior to hers, and no matter how she tried, she could not catch him.
After being frightened, she realized that the man didn't seem to have any ill intentions toward her, which made her feel relieved.
But after the fight, any actions were more cautious.
News came from Yan State, perhaps because Marquis Pingyang did not touch living things. Now he only needs to detoxify during the shape of the moon and the full moon.
Although using the female corpse could alleviate the desire that was attacking his heart with fire poison, it made the poison in his body deepen.
If this continues, no matter how good his health is, he will not be able to survive this winter.
While Yue Ji and the great wizard were chatting happily, Eleven felt more and more uneasy. She always felt that the current calm in the Snake Country was a prelude to the coming storm, and something big would happen soon.
She didn't care about the survival of the Snake Kingdom, but her uneasiness quickly expanded and enveloped her tightly.
This uneasiness became stronger day by day, and eventually she could no longer hold her breath.
Set your sights on the Snake King's palace, which you have never set foot in.
Since in the past eight or nine months, Eleven has secretly searched every corner of the palace, except the Snake King's bedroom.
Because, in the eleven eyes, the Snake King's palace is just a place used to kill young girls and provide poison for the Snake King. In addition, the mother often comes and goes in that place. Yue Ji and the great wizard will definitely not treat such a big palace. The secret is hidden there.
In addition, I was subconsciously afraid of the Snake King, so I never explored that side deeply.
Now that I think about it carefully, that is the only place that has not been checked. If there is no answer in this place, I am afraid that the snake emperor's poison is really unsolvable, otherwise Pingyang Hou would not be in this situation. It has been more than eight months, and he has not moved forward. Come and get the solution.
Eleven observed his mother for several days, and from time to time he learned from her mother about some of the Snake King's living habits.
Although the Snake King has taken the snake pill, his physical strength is far less than before. Therefore, after swallowing a woman, he will not take a comfortable bath immediately and then suck the next woman, as he did in the past. , sleeping in the fragrant soup prepared by her mother for three days and three nights to regain her strength.
The hour shortly after the Snake King enters the soup is when he sleeps most soundly. After this hour, he is easily awakened.
Since the last time Yueniang saw the Snake King having sex with his daughter, and the girl died tragically under the Snake King, she became extremely afraid of the Snake King. In the following days, the Snake King will surely When Hou first entered the fragrant soup and fell asleep most soundly, he hurriedly cleaned the snake's body, put away the blood-stained mattress, and never stayed in the room longer.
On this day, Eleven quietly followed his mother, hiding on the beams outside the Snake Emperor's palace. When his mother handed over the blood-stained bedding to the people in the palace below, she hurriedly left. Counting the time, the Snake Emperor was sleeping soundly. At the deepest time, there was less than a stick of incense left.
This time is really tight.
Eleven frowned slightly. When the palace people left, there was no one else around. He floated down the beam silently, opened the window sash, and stepped inside.
Standing at the door of the compartment, I looked inside and saw the Snake King soaking motionless in the huge pool, sleeping deeply.
Without further delay, he returned to the bedroom, looked around, and frowned slowly.
This bedroom is very luxuriously decorated, no different from Yue Ji's bedroom, and it is larger. It is really difficult to search for something without clues in such a place in just one stick of incense.
But now that he's here, he can't give up just yet. Eleven rummaged through the boxes as quickly as possible.
In a blink of an eye, the time for a stick of incense is approaching, and only less than half of the place has been searched.
I could faintly hear the sound of water coming from the compartment. I thought that the time for the Snake King to sleep was about to pass. If he continued searching, even the slightest sound would wake him up, and he would not dare to make any further moves.
He sneaked to the window, planning to leave first and wait until next time to find time to continue searching.
Unexpectedly, at this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and Eleven looked out of the window.
It turned out that a group of palace maids were walking towards Yue Ji, who had just taken a bath and was lightly draped in gauze.
Yue Ji's long hair is not tied up, and she is not wearing anything under her pink gauze clothes. The secluded forest on the Jade Peak is looming, which is really tempting.
At a glance, it was obvious that he was here to have fun with the Snake King.
Yue Ji arrived outside the palace and asked the palace maids to stay outside. She only took a few of the palace maids who were serving with her and walked up the steps.
Eleven groaned secretly.
This woman doesn't show "spring" in the early days and doesn't show the "spring" in the late years, but she has the "spring" at this time.
If you jump out of the window at this time, you will be caught.
In the blink of an eye, the palace maid had pushed towards the door of the room, and the sound of the snake king coming out of the water came from the room.
Eleven was so anxious that he wandered around in the room. Although the room was large, there was no place to hide.
In the panic, Eleven's back hit a flower stand. Then, the flower stand moved away and slid away silently, revealing a small room inside.
Although the flower stand is hollow, the pattern is complicated. If you don't go close, it is not easy to find that there is another world inside.
Eleven didn't search here just now, so I didn't find this hidden compartment.
Eleven didn't have time to think too much, he stepped inside and the flower stand quickly closed up on its own.
At the moment when the flower stand was completely closed, Eleven saw Yue Ji walking into the door of the room, and the Snake King swam out of the compartment.
Eleven's body was pressed against the wall behind him, not daring to move, for fear of being discovered by Yue Ji and the Snake Emperor if a figure emerged from the pattern.
She was not interested in the perverted stuff between Yue Ji and the Snake Emperor. She felt cold even just looking at it, so she simply turned her face away and turned her head to look at the small cubicle.
Seeing this, he suddenly shuddered.
It turns out that there is a small red sandalwood couch in this small cubicle. The couch is covered with floral brocade mattresses, and a small navy blue snake is sleeping on it. Its color and face look like a snake. A smaller version of the emperor.
The baby snake of the Snake King?
Eleven was stiff and in a mess.
He even held his breath, for fear of waking up the sleeping young snake and causing restlessness, so he attracted Yue Ji and the Snake Emperor.
There is nothing else in this secret room except this small couch. Unless she can hide in the stone wall behind her, it will be difficult for her to fly once she is discovered.
Just when Eleven was feeling uncomfortable, the mother-in-law's anxious voice came from outside the door, "Your Majesty..."
Yue Ji was on fire, holding the Snake Emperor in her arms, preparing to enter the harbor. When someone interrupted her, she became angry.
However, when she heard that it was the nanny she had sent out to do something important, she suppressed her anger, threw up the curtain, and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"
The mother-in-law outside remained silent.
Yue Ji felt that the situation was serious, so she put on her veil and stayed on the bed, signaling the palace maid to open the door.
The door of the room opened, and the mother-in-law walked quickly to Yue Ji. Instead of reporting immediately, she glanced at the maid serving Yue Ji.
Yue Ji immediately waved away the palace maid.
The mother-in-law came close to Yue Ji's ear and whispered something.
Yue Ji's expression changed drastically, anger appeared on her face, then she sneered, stood up suddenly, and shouted coldly: "Get dressed."
