The two walked out of the room and came to the courtyard. The manor was not big, with only a few cabins. There were various flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, which did not look like human species.
Makino continued: "Although I don't recognize the ice thorn, I recognize the symptoms of the cold poison, so I tried to use the flame palm to temporarily suppress the spread of the cold poison for you. However, my cultivation is not enough and I can't drive away the cold poison for my brother. , I’m so ashamed!”
Ling Yun said: "Hey, as a demon king, how can you be so arrogant? The old demon king has the blood of Nuwa and is cruel by nature. It's not surprising that he can't stand up to his cold poison. Once you have mastered your flaming palm to the twelfth level, However, he may not be his opponent! Back then, my master tried his best, but even though he could defeat him, there was nothing he could do to his holy body!" After saying that, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, as if they remembered a tragic story. past.
Makino said: "By the way, the demon king also said that the poison of this ice sting will not only hurt the physical body, but also the spiritual body. Although you have taken the antidote, remember not to use spiritual power for seven or forty-nine days. You can’t be attacked by spiritual power even when you cast spells, otherwise you may lose your soul!”
Ling Yun smiled on his face, cupped his hands and said, "I will obey the Demon Lord's teachings!" After saying that, the two of them burst out laughing at the same time.
While they were talking and laughing, a figure broke through the void outside the courtyard door and walked in. It was Makino's maid Xiaolu.
Makino asked in surprise: "Xiao Lu, are you out? Aren't you in the kitchen preparing lunch?" Xiao Lu replied: "Sir, the food in the manor is almost gone. I see there is nothing to entertain Brother Xiao. So I went outside to find some and brought them back!"
After hearing this, Makino secretly screamed something bad and asked, "Did you find any suspicious people when you came back?" Xiaolu replied, "No, I was very careful when I came back to make sure no one was following me!"
Makino was still worried and said to Xiao Lu: "You continue to cook. If someone comes in, hold it for me for a moment!" After saying that, he turned to Ling Yun and said: "Brother Xiao, it seems that we can't eat this lunch. I have to force you to hide in the inner room!" After saying that, he walked towards the room where Ling Yun was recovering from his injuries, and Ling Yun followed him immediately.
Arriving inside the house, Makino took off the bronze mirror from the wall and activated the spell on the wall behind the bed. A black light shines on the wall in the mirror, and the wall illuminated by the black light turns into water and sways.
Makino put away the mirror, lifted the quilt on the bed, turned around and said to Ling Yun: "Brother Xiao, I'm sorry for you to go inside for a while, I'll go see who wants to harm you!"
Ling Yun got on the bed and walked in through the water wall. Makino activated the mirror again, and the wall returned to its original state.
When Ling Yun came to the wall, he saw a downward staircase in front of him. There were two wall lamps on the walls on both sides of the ladder. As soon as Ling Yun entered, the wall lamps automatically turned on.
Walking down the stairs for a few meters, you came to a small room. There were two wall lamps on each of the four walls, which were automatically lit as he arrived.
By the light of these candles, Ling Yun saw that the interior decoration was extremely simple. There was a large bookshelf on the wall at the entrance, which contained various books made of bamboo slips, as well as some silk books. Strange symbols were engraved on the other walls. , there are two futons on the ground, and a small bed on the innermost side. The bed is covered with pure white sheets and quilts.
Ling Yun looked around, walked straight to the small bed, lay down straight, looked at the ceiling and fell into deep thought.
While he was thinking about it, the sound of rapid footsteps above his head pulled him back from his thoughts. He didn't know what kind of exquisite design this room had made, but the movement outside the room could be heard extremely clearly.
Ling Yun listened quietly, and a strange voice outside said: "I didn't expect the Demon Lord to live such a carefree and happy life, and find such a secret place to hide his beauty in a golden house!"
Makino smiled apologetically and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, it's just a summer manor for me!"
Ling Yun didn't recognize who that person was, and how he could make Makino, a rebellious demon king, look down on him so well. He couldn't help but feel surprised and continued to listen to their conversation.
Another voice sounded again, saying: "Makino, the two of us were just carrying out official duties today and happened to pass by here. We are not interested in your private affairs, but we would like to remind you that if you meet anyone suspicious, you must report it to Holy Lord reports!”
Makino responded in a low voice: "Definitely, definitely!" Ling Yun was even more surprised when he heard this. He thought that after these two people left, he would definitely ask Makino for details. Then, he heard the voice that spoke before said again. There was a sound and he said: "Let's go, we won't disturb the Demon Lord's pleasure!" After saying that, the two of them burst out laughing.
Then, Ling Yun heard the footsteps of several people getting further and further away, and then Xiao Lu's voice came again and said: "You two immortals, please finish your lunch in the small house before leaving!"
One of them replied: "No need, we have important things to do, so I won't disturb you two!"
Xiaolu then said: "Then, you two are busy first, I will send you two immortals!"
The two said, "No, no, Miss Lu, please stay!" After that, no sound was heard again.
About a quarter of an hour later, Ling Yun heard another rush of footsteps above his head. Then, Makino's voice came from above: "Brother Xiao, come up, we can't stay here anymore, I will take you to a safer place!"
Ling Yun walked up the steps, passed through the water curtain door, and returned to the room above. Makino said: "Brother Xiao, follow me!"
Just as Makino was about to walk out, Ling Yun grabbed his wrist and asked, "Makino, tell me the truth!"
Makino turned around, stretched out his hand and gently removed Ling Yun's hand from his wrist, and pulled Ling Yun with his backhand to continue walking out. While pulling him, he said, "Let's talk about it after we leave here!"
Ling Yun flicked his hand away from Makino's hand, stood there, and said with a serious face: "If you don't tell the truth, I won't leave!"
Makino said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you ask!" Ling Yun asked: "How long have you brought me here?"
Makino's eyes flickered and he said impatiently: "In a few days, let's go. If you don't leave, it will be too late!"
Ling Yun still stood still and asked: "How many days?"
Seeing that she couldn't hide it from him, Makino let out a long breath, turned around and sat down on the edge of the bed, and said to Ling Yun: "Counting today, it's already been a month!"
Ling Yun raised his head and smiled bitterly, and asked, "Is it worth it?"
Makino said: "A scholar dies for his confidant. If I can be a brother with Brother Xiao in this life, even risking my life is worth it!"
Ling Yun asked again: "Is all your cultivation gone?"
Makino sighed and said: "It's a small thing to cultivate. You can still practice without it. However, if you hadn't woken up today and recognized this ice thorn, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to save it!"
Ling Yun stretched out his right hand towards Mu Ye and said, "Good brother!" Mu Ye Ling Shen Hui also extended his right hand, and the two held their hands together tightly, and then separated.
Makino dragged the chair next to him, sat down, and continued: "Since you were stabbed by the ice thorn, I immediately snatched you out of the crowd, and then asked Xiaolu to bring you here. Then I returned to the Immortal Palace and took the opportunity to meet everyone one by one. After observing for a while, I didn't see anything unusual. I was worried that something might happen to you again, so I didn't stay too long and rushed back immediately. Now everyone outside is looking for you. , I can't tell who is the enemy and who is the friend, so I dare not tell anyone your whereabouts. The two guys who just came are people from the fairy world and Ye Yunfeng's confidants. But even if they are him, I don't trust you. Hand it over. My place has been exposed. Without magic power, I can't hide this manor. Nowadays, there are many people with mixed eyes. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is safer to change the place!"
Ling Yun said with a bad smile: "It is said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. Isn't this the only place where you, the big devil, can hide your beauty?"
Makino hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Hey, stop it, Brother Xiao, don't make fun of me. I don't have a golden house to hide my beauty. Besides, my residence is basically in the devil world. After you were injured, I disappeared with you." It's been a month, and I'm now the subject of serious suspicion. My residence in the Demon Realm must have been monitored by now. You saw what happened just now. If those two guys couldn't see that I'm weak now, they wouldn't dare If you start here, and nothing suspicious is found here, I'm afraid I'll have been arrested and interrogated by now."
Ling Yun originally wanted to ask Makino about Ye Ying's current situation, but when he heard him say that he had not been out since he came here, he changed his mind and asked, "Where is your manor located?" Makino replied: "The fairy world, at the foot of Mount Lu. !”
After hearing this, Ling Yun thought for a while and said, "I'm thinking of a place to go. The owner there will definitely not harm me, but..." "But what?" Makino asked.
Ling Yun continued: "However, it's a long way from here. With your current state, I'm afraid we won't be able to get there safely!"
Makino asked: "What are you talking about..."
"Yishui Villa!" Ling Yun replied.
After hearing this, Makino fisted each other and suddenly realized: "Yeah, why didn't I think of that? Let's do it. Without further ado, I'll let Xiaolu go for a run before those two guys reveal my whereabouts. , notify Han Yishui to come and respond!" After saying that, before Ling Yun could speak, he shouted towards the door: "Xiao Lu!"
Xiao Lu heard the sound and walked in quickly and asked: "Master, what do you want to see me for?"
Makino said: "Quick, rush to Yishui Villa as quickly as possible, tell Han Yishui that Brother Xiao is here, and ask him to come and respond quickly!"
Xiaolu responded, "Yes, Master!" After saying that, she turned around and walked quickly outside the courtyard, disappearing into the jungle.
Makino and Ling Yun waited in the house for an hour. Seeing that the sun was about to set, they still didn't see Xiaolu coming back, and there was no one who came to meet them from Yishui Villa. They began to feel alarmed.
Makino stood up and said: "It's a long way to Yishui Villa, but it's still within the fairyland. With Xiaolu's strength, we should be back by now. If we haven't arrived yet, I'm afraid there's no accident. Brother Xiao , let’s go out and take a look!” After that, the two of them walked out of the house one after another.
After going out, Makino took two bamboo hats from the wall outside the house and handed one to Ling Yun. The two of them put it on each. The gauze curtain hanging from the edge of the bamboo hat could cover half of their faces, helping them hide their identities.
The two put on their bamboo hats and walked straight out of the courtyard. Makino turned around and closed the courtyard door, and walked towards the forest with Ling Yun.
Makino's cultivation was exhausted, and Ling Yun was seriously injured. Neither of them could cast spells, so they could only move forward on foot. The two trudged through the forest for about half an hour, and arrived at the foot of an empty mountain.
Seeing no one around, both of them were tired from walking and were about to find a place to rest under the shade of a tree. Makino had just taken off the hat on his head and fanned himself when he heard a voice from behind asking: "Two little brothers Where are we going?"
When Makino and Ling Yun heard the sound, their hearts tightened at the same time. Ling Yun turned around quickly, but no one was there. He thought to himself: "This voice is so familiar, but I can't remember where I heard it before!"
Makino stood up slowly, put the bamboo hat back on, and whispered to Ling Yun: "Don't look back, let's go!" After saying that, he walked forward first. After hearing this, Ling Yun also stood up and quickly followed.
After walking for a while, Ling Yun asked Makino, "Who was that just now?"
Makino kept walking and replied: "Inner Demon!"
Ling Yun was a little surprised and asked: "Inner demon? Sun Changchun? Why does he appear here?"
Makino said: "He's not here. He just used his unique voice transmission technique. It's at least twenty miles away from here, but your whereabouts and my whereabouts have been exposed. You must calm down and don't have distracting thoughts, which he can take advantage of." Opportunity, otherwise he could be here in an instant!"
Ling Yun said: "It turns out to be him. I said that voice sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was. Then isn't Sun Changchun a crazy old man? Why are you so nervous?"
Makino said: "Brother Xiao, you don't know something. This inner demon is an innate demon who was born and raised. He seems to have no power to restrain a chicken on weekdays..." In the middle of his words, he suddenly stopped. Footsteps, eyes staring straight ahead, pupils shrinking rapidly.
Ling Yun followed his eyes and saw a man in black standing in the woods ahead, holding a big knife, with long hair shawl and a bun on top of his head. The sun shone through the dense leaves, which was a bit dazzling and could not be seen clearly. People look like.
Seeing Muye's reaction, Ling Yun asked Muye in a low voice, "Who is that person?"
Makino did not answer, thinking secretly in his heart: "Although this person's magic power is better than mine, he probably doesn't know that I have lost all my cultivation. Besides, Brother Xiao is also present, so he may not dare to fight with us!"
So, Makino changed his nervous expression, smiled slightly, and said softly to Ling Yun: "The one you have seen is Sun Changchun, the elder of the demon world!"
Ling Yun asked: "He came so quickly?"
Makino replied: "I don't know either, but it seems like I'm here for you, so just act according to the circumstances!"
After saying that, Makino pretended to be enthusiastic and walked towards the man in black, cupping his hands and saying: "Elder Sun, oh no, Uncle Sun, it's been a long time since I saw you, you are still as chic as ever!"
The man in black snorted coldly, put away the big knife, inserted it into the scabbard on his back, folded his hands in front of his chest, and said disdainfully: "Makino, you kid, don't get too close to me. Don't think that you are the Demon Lord now, and I will I will let you go. If I hadn't left the Demon Realm back then, you wouldn't have been able to take the Demon Lord's seat! Don't forget, I can return to the Demon Realm at any time!"
Makino chuckled and said: "Uncle, please don't be angry. If you like the Demon Lord's position, my nephew will ask you to come back and sit at any time!"
The man in black replied: "I'm not interested in the position of the Demon Lord, otherwise your kid wouldn't be alive today!" He pointed at Ling Yun and said: "I came here today to take him away. You are the most important person." So let’s get out of the way, if you’re blocking it, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Makino smiled and said: "Don't dare, don't dare. If it's normal, I can take Brother Xiao wherever he wants, but today, my nephew and Brother Xiao have something important to do. Please forgive my nephew for not agreeing!" We must cross Sun Changchun and continue walking forward.
Sun Changchun ignored him, but said to Ling Yun: "Xiao Yang, as the eldest disciple of Xiaoyaozi and a dignified immortal, why are you hiding behind this little devil? If this is spread, wouldn't it be ridiculous?"
Hearing this, Ling Yun knew that the other party had recognized him, so he took a step forward, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Elder Sun, it has been a thousand years since we parted ways on Peach Blossom Island. How is Elder Sun doing? I don't know if Elder Sun is here to bring you with you." Where are you going?"
Sun Changchun said: "Don't ask so many questions, just follow me!"
Makino suddenly burst into laughter and said: "Uncle, not to mention you, it is my master. He was also defeated by Brother Xiao back then. The master forced him to use the twelve levels of skills, and finally became obsessed. Brother Xiao was rescued by his own efforts, and I am here with my nephew today. If you want to take him away today, I'm afraid it won't be that easy, right?"
Sun Changchun was bound to win, but when he heard what Muye said, he felt a little hesitant. He thought, "Isn't this boy Muye bluffing me? Senior brother would be defeated by this junior?" He then thought again. : "The boy named Ye said that he has been seriously injured. He may not be my opponent today. You might as well try his background!"
So, Sun Changchun said to Muye: "You guys, stop talking nonsense, I want to see what amazing abilities you have!" As he said that, he slapped Ling Yun out of thin air.
Seeing this, Makino secretly yelled "No!" and hurriedly stepped forward to block Ling Yun. Sun Changchun seemed to have noticed something was wrong and hurriedly stopped the attack, but it was too late and he only withdrew 80% of the power of the palm. .
Sun Changchun's palm seemed to be a method of hitting a cow from across the mountain. A palm force penetrated Mu Ye's body and hit Ling Yun steadily. Makino was knocked back a few steps by the palm, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. However, Ling Yun was hit and flew a full three feet away. A large stream of blood spurted out of his mouth, and his body hit a stone with a "bang" sound. On the big tree, he tilted his head and passed out.
Before he lost consciousness, he seemed to see two people suddenly appear in front of him, blocking Sun Changchun in front of him. However, before he could see clearly who the two people were trying to target, he already lost consciousness.
