He murmured, while staring at the lower world, trying to observe the Queen Mother of the West.
However, as he expected, the Queen Mother of the West, who could speed up the fusion process, was well prepared and used a barrier to block his perception. Even he, at such a distance, could not see everything clearly.
"In that case, I'll just have to speed up."
......
"How was the chat?"
Seeing Jiang Lu and the other two coming out one after another, Dong Wanggong, who was the most concerned, stepped forward and asked.
Upon hearing this, Queen Mother of the West showed a strange look, Jin Yao secretly grinned, and Jiang Lu acted as if nothing had happened. It was a real show of all kinds of people.
Xuannv vaguely sensed something strange.
To be precise, I smelled something familiar, especially when the Queen Mother of the West sighed.
Just like someone who has just eaten hotpot cannot smell or detect any smell on his body, the same goes for the Queen Mother of the West.
But Xuannv didn't say anything.
She couldn't afford to offend anyone here except Jiang Lu, and there was no need to make things more complicated.
Jiang Lu remained calm and didn't say a word about what happened. He just replied, "The conversation went smoothly. I even tried it just now, but failed."
"What should I do?"
"We can only use formations to assist." Jiang Lu sighed.
"Formation..." Dong Wanggong was surprised: "There is such a formation? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Jiang Lu said mysteriously: "Yes, I have done some research on this, and I know there are two kinds of inheritance."
"Which two?"
Queen Mother of the West and Jin Yao looked at Jiang Lu speechlessly.
Here we go again, right?
Chapter 358 Then play music and then dance
Jiang Lu enjoyed his bad jokes, but others didn't seem to buy it.
When he found out that he was also pretending to understand, Dong Wanggong interrupted him and said, "Goodbye."
After saying that, he was about to fly towards another hill.
"Wait a minute." Jiang Lu hurriedly stopped him: "Where are you going?"
"sleep."
"Then why are you running up the mountain instead of going back to the hotel?"
"You called me up here in the middle of the night, and then asked me to go back after the job was done, right?" Dong Wanggong rolled his eyes: "Besides, I can't have a room at my sister's house, right?"
"That's... no problem." Jiang Lu nodded awkwardly.
He really didn't expect that the King of the East also had his own nest on Mount Kunlun, but this made sense. He had to have a place to stay when he came to visit, and the Queen Mother of the West had a large family and wealth, so it was actually very reasonable for her to build a palace or a hall specifically for him.
Just like the princes in ancient times, although they can leave the palace when they reach a certain age and have their own residences outside, the palace where they grew up in the imperial palace will always be prepared for them.
It’s not like ordinary people. It’s okay to have a guest room. If there is no guest room, it means someone will always have to sleep in the living room.
But just as Dong Wanggong was about to leave, Jiang Lu stopped him again: "Wait a moment."
"What's wrong again?" This time, Duke Dong was a little impatient.
He always has a bad temper when he wakes up, but this time it was only because Jiang Lu called personally, and also for the sake of his sister, that he was able to endure the humiliation and serve as a special forces soldier to escort Jin Yao up in the middle of the night.
But first I had to face the wall and reflect on my mistakes, then I had to sit outside for a long time without even being able to drink a sip of hot tea, and I was already feeling unhappy.
But he couldn't afford to offend anyone here. Even Xuannu had the ability to report him to the Queen Mother of the West and slander him, thus indirectly holding the power of life and death over him. So he could only keep his dissatisfaction in his heart.
But now he couldn't help it anymore.
I can't afford to offend you, but it's okay for me to complain, right?
With such thoughts in mind, he was not very friendly to Jiang Lu.
"Can't you just finish your words at once?"
Jiang Lu didn't make any jokes: "I want to ask, what about Hong Yi and the others?"
"Still in the hotel." Dong Wanggong calculated the exact time with his fingers: "I guess they are still sleeping. I didn't wake them up when I left. What's wrong?"
"I want you to take them both."
"?" Dong Wanggong approached Jiang Lu and pressed his forehead against his. In Jiang Lu's eyes, his whole face was no different from that fruit fly that had turned into a spirit: "Are you kidding? Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Jiang Lu looked away and scratched his nose: "I forgot about it earlier."
"What you mean is that you want me, Dong Wanggong, to get up in the middle of the night and work as hard as a stray dog on the roadside to escort my sister's three corpse spirits, Jin Yao, who is almost my second sister, up the mountain. Then because of your negligence, you want me to go down the mountain to pick up the others. Is this what you mean?" Dong Wanggong questioned word by word.
"Hmm..." Jiang Lu pondered for a moment and clapped his hands in approval, "Very insightful."
"What the hell..."
Dong Wanggong's breathing became rapid: "Can't we let them come up tomorrow?"
Hearing this, Jiang Lu suddenly became serious.
"It's not about when they come up, it's about you not being with them right now."
Dong Wanggong was stunned: "You mean, someone will harm them?"
"Not sure." Jiang Lu glanced at the Queen Mother of the West cryptically: "But we have to be on guard."
The Queen Mother of the West felt a chill in her heart.
It seems that although Jiang Lu said that it was not a big problem, he actually took his words to heart.
Indeed, although the possibility is very low, it does not mean that it does not exist. Yuanshi Tianzun has infinite means, and even if there is only a one in ten thousand possibility, we must be on guard.
Thinking of this, Queen Mother Xi agreed, "He's right. You should go. Even if we don't talk about the potential threats, the situation down there is so chaotic and the demons from the Hehuan Sect are rampant. You should bring your friends up. By the way, Hong Yi doesn't sound like a man's name."
"Uh..." Jiang Lu's expression changed.
Bad! Negligence!
It should be represented by a sickle and a performer.
But it's not his fault. The reason why he subconsciously said "Hong Yi and others" was because it was impossible to say their code names, but Jiang Lu had long forgotten their real names, so the first person he thought of was Hong Yi.
Unexpectedly, this actually became a flaw?
Dong Wanggong had vaguely noticed some clues during the journey, but he didn't say anything. He just looked at Jiang Lu deeply and said nothing.
But Jin Yao, who had accepted Hong Yi a long time ago, was different. She just wanted to watch the fun and enjoy the excitement.
Moreover, this is a good opportunity to retaliate against the Queen Mother of the West. How could she miss it?
So she leaned close to Queen Mother of the West's ear and told her the story of Hong Yi with a wicked smile.
After hearing this, Queen Mother of the West became furious.
"what?!"
If Jin Yao was the only one sharing Jiang Lu with her, she could still accept it. After all, they were actually the same person who took different paths at a certain period of time. But Hong Yi was different. She was an outsider, so why should she accept it?
She stared at Jiang Lu angrily, as if questioning him or interrogating him.
Jiang Lu was thinking about how to explain it quickly, but Dong Wanggong took advantage of his power and asked: "So should I accept it now?"
After asking, he looked at Jiang Lu, who had a grim expression, with a smile, wanting to watch the fun.
"Answer? Ha." Queen Mother of the West sneered, the answer was self-evident.
But she is not the kind of person who cannot distinguish between the important and the minor. She doesn't want innocent people to get hurt.
and so.
"I think you should go down and accompany them. You can stay in the hotel and you are not allowed to leave without my order."
"Ah?" Dong Wanggong was stunned.
The smile shifted to Jiang Lu's face.
"no..."
"Okay, that's it. I still need to discuss the formation with Jin...Jin Yao. If there's nothing else, you can leave."
After saying this, the Queen Mother of the West no longer cared about the King of the East and walked back into the house.
Jiang Lu shook his head and raised his middle finger to the confused Dong Wanggong: "You are a scum who harms others and does not benefit yourself."
"You!" Dong Wanggong glared at him angrily, but did not dare to really attack him.
It's not that he was afraid of Jiang Lu, but apart from this relationship, the difference between the two was so great that Dong Wanggong was afraid that after he took action, he would have to kneel down and beg Jiang Lu not to die.
"Come on, let's go. I'll go down the mountain and stay for a night too."
"You're going too?" Dong Wanggong was surprised. "You're staying here well, why are you going down the mountain?"
"It's over here, and I can't help you. It's the same everywhere."
“I don’t think it’s that simple…”
Jiang Lu pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, it will take a long time to get back to my cave in Yaochi. I want you to fly me down the mountain directly. I don't want to walk anymore."
"You should have said it earlier." Dong Wanggong shook his head: "You're so lazy."
He naively believed it.
But in fact, he thought he was on the second floor, and Jiang Lu lied that he was on the first floor, but in fact Jiang Lu was on the fifth floor.
He wanted to go and meet Hong Yi.
Lu Qing, Queen Mother of the West, Jin Yao, even Xuannv and Zhu Zhen have all committed crimes accidentally, and now it is Hong Yi's turn.
Jiang Lu believed that God was watching what people did. Although Hong Yi didn't know that he had killed so many people, it didn't mean that he could go against his conscience and pretend that nothing had happened.
The water must be level and the road must be paved.
If the road is not smooth, how can people's hearts be at peace?
Therefore, even for the sake of justice between heaven and earth, Hong Yi must be favored today. There is no reason not to go down the mountain.
