Outlying Islands and Different Swordsmen

Chapter 10 Mo Mansion · Prince Yi

Yiyao had a new dream, no garden, no Duanmu.

She dreamed that in her own mansion, she was sitting in the master's study, looking at the small garden in the courtyard, drawing pictures.And the old servant in the dining room was still alive, stewing the spare rib soup that Yi Yao loved since childhood.Ribs, cassia seeds, and a few dried flowers for the soup.

From Yi Yao's point of view, it seems that this is the reality, and everything she experienced before is more like a dream.

……

Eyelids opened heavily.She found herself lying in a strange room, luxuriously furnished and furnished, as if it were a large mansion.It was already bright outside, and the entire row of window papers shone by the sun was a bit dazzling.

The door opened, and Ling Duo came in with food.Seeing Yi Yao, she shouted happily: "Miss, you're finally awake!"

Ling Duo has already changed into the different clothes from yesterday, Yi Yao looked at herself again, she has also changed all her clothes.

"You scared me to death." Ling Duo came over and touched Yi Yao's forehead, "Fortunately, it's finally gone. Miss, are you feeling uncomfortable now?"

"My head is a little dizzy, but it's okay. I remember... Didn't we fall into the lotus pond of Liu Zhifu's house?" Yi Yao asked.

"That's right! Then you passed out in the water." Ling Duo said, "I was scared to death. Mr. Mo and I pulled you up together. We were all wet."

"Are we still in Lord Liu's residence?"

"How is it possible!" Ling Duo laughed, "There is no one in Liu Zhifu's mansion. Just like ours. Otherwise, we will be caught as assassins if we fall into the pool from the sky like this. See Liu's mansion No one, Mr. Mo took us to his mansion. We are in Mo's mansion now."

"What time is it?"

"It's already afternoon, Miss, you've been in a coma for a long time."

"But...how come there is no one in Master Liu's house." Yi Yao struggled to sit up, "Then my father..."

"Miss, you can rest assured." Ling Duo said, "Master is fine, Mr. Mo has basically investigated it."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door. It was Mo Xiangzhi's voice: "Miss Yang is awake? Can I come in?"

Ling Duo hurriedly supported Yi Yao to get up and put on her coat.

Mr. Mo asked about Yiyao's situation, and then said: "My father told me that Mr. Liu suddenly received news yesterday that there are sword demon forces in this city, so he immediately ordered the city to be closed and searched. But after all Senior official, there are more than dozens of people in the mansion, fearing that the sword demon will be so vicious that it will harm the family members in the mansion, before ordering the closure of the city yesterday, he quickly took his family and all the followers to Shuangqiao County, [-] miles outside Quanshan City, to take refuge .”

"That means my father also took refuge together?"

"Yes, all the family members and guests in the magistrate's mansion went out of the city with them yesterday." Mo Xiangzhi said, "The high officials are the high officials, so I hid first. In order not to leak the news, he directly trapped all the people in the city. If it’s really the Sword Demon’s forces, or if the Sword Demon himself is here, then the entire city’s people will suffer.”

After Mo Xiangzhi finished speaking, he looked at Yiyao's pale face, showing some pity in his eyes, and said, "It's also my fault. I went out for a few days and didn't know the news in the city, which caused Miss to experience so many twists and turns with me last night. and danger."

"That's right, we would have gone straight to Shuangqiao County to look for the master if we had known about it. Last night, the dense forest, the strange beast phoenix, and the scene of the strange beast breaking through the city wall of Linhai still have lingering fears." Ling Duo said, " Fortunately, my young lady is lucky..."

"Lingduo, stop talking nonsense. If it weren't for Mr. Mo, we wouldn't even know where my father is now." Yi Yao said, "Mr. Mo, do your Mo family members have to be with everyone in this city? You can't escape ?”

Mo Xiangzhi sneered: "Master Zhifu knew that our Mo family could call out alien beasts, so he specifically asked our Mo family to stay in the city. He said that we need our alien beasts to help attack the sword demon forces when necessary. By the way, miss, you can now Can you perceive the blood phoenix from last night? After throwing us into the lotus pond last night, the phoenix quickly flew away. Can you try to perceive it?"

"How to perceive?"

"It's the feeling when you connect with it. Do you feel warmth all over your body? Try it. As long as the alien beast is not more than a hundred miles away from us, we can feel it."

"Yes, that's how it felt when it was connected to my mind last night. But... I can't feel it now, maybe it's far away." Yi Yao closed her eyes and tried it, but she didn't feel it, "Young master, you know why it is so fast leave?"

"The behavior of the strange beast is nothing more than two points: one is that it perceives life-threatening danger, and out of survival instinct, it may abandon people and leave." Mo Xiangzhi said thoughtfully, "there is another situation, that is It has another connected mind nearby, calling it."

"Can alien beasts connect with different hearts?" Yi Yao was curious.

"As far as I know, as long as the alien beast connects with a person, only that person will be recognized." Mo Xiangzhi paused for a while, and said nothing more.

"Mr. Mo, why do you say that there are other people in Phoenix..."

Mo Xiangzhi pondered for a moment, then replied: "This matter...is just my guess, sorry I can't tell Miss right now."

Yi Yao looked at Mo Xiangzhi with some confusion, and felt that this person seemed to be hiding a lot of things.

After a while, Yi Yao asked again: "By the way, when we climbed onto the back of Phoenix last night, I heard you say 'we are saved', what does it mean..."

Mo Xiangzhi didn't answer, and was thinking about how to respond, when he heard a servant report from outside:
"Second son, the master is in the living room. If you have important matters, please go and discuss with him."

"Did the master say something?" Mo Xiangzhi asked.

"Back to the Second Young Master, it is said... It is said that it is a matter of rounding up the 'Sword Demon'..."

"Okay, I'll go there now." Mo Xiangzhi got up, looked back at Yiyao and said, "Now Quanshan City is still closed, and it is estimated that I will not be able to get out for a while. It is my fault that Miss is trapped in this situation. But since Yang If the outsiders are safe, then you might as well spend some time in the mansion to recuperate. The streets in the city are chaotic and dangerous, please do not leave the mansion! I will come whenever I go. Ling Duo takes good care of your young lady."

After Mr. Mo went out, Ling Duo smiled and said: "After all the troubles last night, it seems that Mr. Mo has a crush on Miss."

"You girl, you're talking nonsense again." Yi Yao said, "I think that this person is not simple, and it seems that he still has many things to hide from us."

"But your eyes are not deceiving! Miss, you are born so handsome and attractive, which young master doesn't like it. Besides, compared with the ladies of high-ranking officials and noble families, there are so many special things about you... You I didn't notice, the way Mr. Mo looked at you today is full of affection! Hahahaha..." Lingduo smiled and brought the tray, "Miss, look, it's just that he prepared this lunch and nourishing food for you It is much more expensive than the gold in our mansion!"

Yi Yao said angrily: "You talk nonsense again, be careful that I will stab your ass with a gun. By the way, where is my silver dragon gun?"

"It's there." Lingduo pointed to the table on one side, "Yesterday it was on the back of that strange beast phoenix, but I held it the whole time, and I almost couldn't grasp the feathers with my hands. The things my wife left for you, I It can be seen that it is more important than life."

Yi Yao took a few mouthfuls of lunch, thought for a while and said, "No, I'm still not at ease. We have to find a way to go out of the city now, to Shuangqiao County, and I will feel at ease when I see that my father is really safe and sound. .”

While the two were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of arguing outside the door.
