Xiao Qianye pondered silently, it couldn't be that she was suffering from lovesickness and had some auditory hallucinations, right? After all, for so long, no matter how he called her, hoping to get a little response, she never made any sound. Why?

Maybe you suddenly spoke up at this time, why should you go and help your elder brother first?

He shook his head and smiled awkwardly. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a voice under the water suddenly rise up. As if he knew his thoughts well, he blurted out: "I'm angry."

Xiao Qianye stared at the water, it was true! It was not his auditory hallucination, Yun Xiao's voice was really coming from the water!

Could it be that the remains of the spirit phoenix scattered all over the source of the glacier played a role? Or could Yuebaihua's magical power really help her recover? Xiao Qianye stepped forward and almost fell into the snowy lake. He looked slightly embarrassed.

The appearance seemed to make the distant person sneer, and also made him feel surprised and happy. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to touch the person he was thinking about through the water. A flash of ecstasy suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he trembled in a low voice:

"Angry... You're already like this, and you're still angry with me! Ah Xiao, I really don't dare to delay any more. Can you let me save you first?"

Small bubbles appeared on the water, just like her little mouth that would pout when she was angry. It was a silent resistance that made him angry and helpless. At this time, the footsteps coming from the distance also forced him to

He had to leave as soon as possible.

The moment he stepped out of Qianji Palace, he still glanced at the snow lake with reluctance, and his expression became a little confused. The lake surface quietly returned to calm in an instant, and even the sparkling water dispersed silently.

, as if everything that just happened was a dream of his.

A few days later, deep in the Mo Pavilion in the Imperial City, Ming Xi looked at Xiao Yibai who had finally returned from Yangchuan. Without saying anything, he calmly raised his hand and pointed to a row of twelve wooden niches on the shelf on the left.

Taking a breath, he noticed an unusual coldness the moment he stepped into Mo Pavilion. This coldness was not like a drop in temperature in early winter, but like some kind of danger lingering nearby. These twelve wooden trees

The niches have the same specifications and styles, and it looks like they were made by the same person. The wooden board in front can be pulled open, and there is a bloody handprint printed on it.

He scanned them one by one. The bloody handprints were large and small, male and female, and there should even be young children. He hesitated for a moment, and only gently pulled on the wooden niche at the edge and glanced at it.

What's inside.

It was the head of a woman, probably in her forties, almost fifty years old, but she still retained the exquisite makeup she had during her lifetime, and even the hairpins were still properly inserted into her bun. She closed her eyes and smiled, as if to herself.

There is no feeling of death.

"You touch the back of the head." Mingxi reminded lightly. He was already used to this kind of scene. Xiao Yibai slowly reached out his hand and inspected it little by little along the head. Suddenly he felt his finger touch a thick

The needle, just when he unconsciously tried to pull it out with slight force, the originally quiet head opened his eyes in an instant, the bloodshot pupils were shining with a strange luster, and the corners of his mouth were stiffly raised,

He cursed mechanically in a strange tone: "Dog royal family, corrupt officials, profiteers, retribution! They will all die!"

Xiao Yibai was slightly moved. During his years as a member of Feng Mo, his men had assassinated countless high-ranking officials and ministers. But for some reason, he felt a thick cold sweat running down his back at this moment. He couldn't help but let go of his hand and stopped touching it.

That needle.

Ming Xi also walked down from his seat. Instead of closing the wooden niche, he opened the remaining eleven niches one by one, and introduced from the far left: "This is the youngest son of the Lord of Dongming Wanyou City, two years ago.

We just got married, but now the whole family has been wiped out, and only his head was sent here. You know that there is a planetarium in Wanyou City to predict misfortunes, but I don’t know if it was affected by the fragmentation. It didn’t work this time.

It’s working, the old city lord is so angry and sick that he can’t help it, so now I’m looking for someone to temporarily replace him.”

"This person is..." Xiao Yibai blurted out thoughtfully. Mingxi did not hide anything and replied lightly, "It's Luo Ling. It's hard for him. The position of city lord is a high-risk job now."

Xiao Yibai pursed his lips, and Mingxi pointed to the second head and continued: "This person is also from Dongming. After being shattered, he was originally assisting Mirror Pavilion in delivering supplies for disaster relief. It seems that he secretly took a lot of benefits from it. Gongsun Yan has long been

I wanted to deal with him, but someone else took the lead, which is a pity."

"Mingxi..." Xiao Yibai saw that he looked careless, and he was still leisurely and leisurely making this kind of joke with himself, which was not funny at all. Mingxi just waved his hand, and clicked the third, fourth, and third numbers in succession with his slender fingers.

Five wooden niches, then said: "These three people are from Yudu, one is the owner of the shipyard, and the two are merchants who have business dealings with him. They are century-old brands in Yudu. I can't think of these three people."

If there was any reason, someone would kill him and give it to me."

He continued to walk forward, and in the sixth wooden niche was a young child, who looked to be only about ten years old. Mingxi paused in front of him, and finally let out a long sigh and said in a low voice: "Dan Zhen Palace

Have you seen Qiao Yu? He has two sisters. The eldest sister was killed by King Bin's water prison test medicine. The second sister got married very early. This is her youngest son. I still hide it from Qiao Yu.

At home, they thought the child was just missing and kept looking everywhere."

"Why?" Xiao Yibai felt sad in his heart, and for some reason he suddenly felt chilled and trembling. Murderous intent suddenly flashed through his eyes. Ming Xi looked down and shook his head, "I don't know. When I sent those people at first, I thought they were just killing some high-ranking officials.

, the wealthy businessmen just came to threaten me, why did they kill innocent children? The Qiao family was treating diseases and saving people in Xuecheng, but they couldn't offend those fugitives from the end of the world. Why? I can't figure it out.

"

Then, he raised his hand and pointed to the seventh and eighth wooden niches, and his tone was indescribably heavy: "These two are doctors from Xuecheng. The old couple have never left Xuecheng in their lives, and they have never left Xuecheng."

Why do you get killed if you do bad things?"

Xiao Yibai subconsciously wanted to go up to him, and looked directly at the two old but still kind faces. After a while, he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Is it because of the ban? Until the late emperor, the doctors in Xuecheng were prohibited from treating foreigners.

, was he brutally killed for this reason?"

Mingxi didn't reply. It's not that he hadn't thought about such an answer. Just mentioning it a little bit, he couldn't stop the regret and regret in his heart.

Then to the ninth and tenth, there was a man with brown hair and a dark face, who looked like a desert bandit with the characteristics of Yangchuan. The other face was smeared with green ink and painted with strange patterns, which is the makeup commonly used to attract tourists.

Mingxi just walked over casually. Even if he didn't say anything, Xiao Yibai understood the approximate identities of the two people. Then the eleventh one was a fat lady with big ears. Although she didn't know how long she had been dead, the stain on her cheek was

The fat meat still seemed to be able to squeeze out oil. Ming Xi glanced at it lightly and said, "This is Mrs. He from Jiucheng. Even though she looks like this, she is a celebrity known as the 'Queen of Gambling'."

Finally walking to the last one, the woman in front of Xiao Yibai, who was no longer young but still dressed in splendor, Mingxi smiled slightly, took off a hairpin and put it in the palm of her hand to play with: "Maybe you can

I've heard the name, it's Auntie Quan, the old bustard of Guangmo Building in Jingcheng, and she is the same as Zhao Ya. There are twelve heads here, all from different statuses in the four realms. The other person is warning me that he has the ability to fly

Take anyone's head from any part of the wall, and after the four realms, there will be the imperial capital."

"Huh." Xiao Yibai snorted coldly and sat down on a nearby chair. He turned his back to the twelve heads and didn't want to look at them again. Ming Xi's eyes were still that kind of light golden color, with neither anger nor anger.

Afraid, he just closed the wooden niche lightly, walked up to him slowly and said, "These twelve wooden niches were sent to Mo Pavilion one after another after I came back from Yangchuan. Even Gongsun Yan couldn't find them.

Who could have escaped from the outside guards and entered Mo Pavilion directly? In other words, this person could have easily come to me, but he has never done anything to me, right?"

"Want to kill you? He's dreaming!" Xiao Yibai couldn't help but slapped the armrest of the chair. He pointed at the jade ring in Mingxi's hand with anger that came from nowhere and cursed, "And you, don't do so many things to me.

What are you trying to do with all the flashy stuff that you have been using to transport the spiritual power of the separated souls? I told you a long time ago that you don’t need to help me save spiritual power. You won’t be able to use that thing until you die! Are you?

You have to scold you before I can..."

Before he finished speaking, a book hit his face. Mingxi interrupted him lightly: "Keep your voice down."

The moment he finished saying this, the door of Mo Pavilion was gently pushed open. Gongsun Yan had thick dark circles under his eyes. He didn't know what terrible thing had happened to him, and even his voice was trembling uncontrollably: "Ming Ming

Xi, something happened, Ye Xue...Axue is missing!"

The two people in the Mo Pavilion looked over at the same time. Gongsun Yan was in a rare panic. He didn't know why the disappearance of the fiancée he had never loved for a minute caused such a terrifying wave in his heart. He grabbed it with one hand.

He pressed the door frame and subconsciously inserted his fingers deeply into it: "Xiao Yibai, Ye Zhuofan came back with you. After he went to the military pavilion to report to Marshal Si Tian about what happened in the past six months, he saw Ming Qi when he returned home.

The madam is holding a bloody pajamas like crazy and is looking for Ye Xue all over the city. All the servants have gone out to look for her. There has been no news for most of the day."
