Chapter 68 67. Amulet
The Rose Corridor swayed slightly, and indeed there was no further attack.
Zhou Qian stood there and waited quietly for a while, then he heaved a sigh of relief along with everyone else:
"It is in a good mood today."
But, why?
Is it because of seeing Wu Yue, which gave birth to it?
But General Wu didn't even touch it... Could it be that they had come into close contact when I left? Or could they sense it from such a distance?
Thinking about what happened to General Wu, his expression darkened again. Now, looking at Huai Yu, who was kneeling on the ground with tears all over her face and looking extremely embarrassed, his silence turned into a heavy sense of guilt.
"Xiao Yu, I'm sorry, we shouldn't have broken into your house without permission..."
General Lin Xuefeng's order is too important, and General Wu Yue's order must be carried out.
But he didn't expect that he would make Xiaoyu's home such a mess.
"Is that you?"
Huaiyu stared at him blankly. Seeing his silent and guilty expression, she couldn't even feel any resentment at this moment.
I just feel super super wronged.
So much so that she stared at Zhou Qian, and tears as big as beans fell one by one.
There was no wailing or cursing, but it was far more heart-stirring than wailing.
Not to mention Zhou Qian who was in close contact with her, even the few defensive soldiers who followed her were standing there awkwardly, not daring to look her in the eye at this moment.
Zhou Qian felt even more ashamed.
He still remembered Huaiyu's disheveled look when she crawled out of the foundation of the Rose Mansion, and also remembered her expectant look as she came over with a bunch of pine cones.
Without his knowledge, the tree house in front of him was tidied up bit by bit by the girl in front of him to look like a home with her best efforts.
But all this...
Especially now that Huaiyu was looking at him, she didn't question him, nor was she angry. But the tears that fell into the soil made his heart ache.
It was like a towel being twisted over and over, squeezing out bits and pieces of guilt.
"sorry."
He could only apologize sincerely again: "General Wu came here in person to investigate the whereabouts of General Lin Xuefeng."
"I heard you have an ice sculpture of his here, so I wanted to bring it over to verify its authenticity."
Originally, Zhou Qian was sent to investigate, but although Huaiyu's room was not locked, he wandered at the door for a while and decided to wait for Huaiyu to come back and get his consent before doing anything.
But General Wu said that he had something important to do and had to leave tonight, so he didn't have enough time...so he came here directly.
…
What Zhou Qian didn't know was that the reason Wu Yue came here was also related to the Rose Corridor.
He did not go to the place where Wu Yue had stayed before, so he did not know that the place had been shredded to pieces by the leaves of the rose corridor and the soil had been rolled up.
But the two were too far away from each other, and they were not really fighting to the death, so the Rose Corridor failed to hurt Wu Yue, who was now a top-level expert in wood-type supernatural powers.
Compared with threats, that kind of trouble was more like venting anger, and it would be fine if the temper was vented out.
But Wu Yue was in a bad mood because of this.
Zhou Qian happened to report that his master was not at home, so it would be better to wait for a while...
He drove over, a solemn and resolute look on his handsome face:
"General Lin Xuefeng's safety concerns the entire garrison, so special matters must be handled specially! If that Huai Yu doesn't come back today, do you have to wait here forever?"
"Besides, we can't be sure whether it is the ice sculpture left by General Lin. If we wait for a few days and find out it is fake, wouldn't it delay many plans in vain?"
His words were powerful and convincing.
Zhou Qian hesitated.
Of course, he could hear the anger and impatience in General Wu's words, but he didn't know that this emotion was not because of the ice sculpture -
But it’s because of the Rose Corridor and Huaiyu’s name.
The sound of the rose branches moving indignantly came and went. The combined emotions of guilt and impatience made Wu Yue step forward and directly open the door of the tree house.
The light from outside the door shone in.
His eyes immediately fell on the pink roses in the white porcelain vase.
Then there was a pause.
Is that the flower of the Rose Corridor? No, it's impossible! With such a bad temper, how could it allow a girl with only a weak wood power to pick its flowers?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The doubt was like the fresh wisteria flowers swaying at the door, which he threw behind his mind after a slight sway.
Because in front of the vase, the crystal clear ice sculpture was emitting wisps of cold air.
It was far away, so he couldn't see the small words clearly. But he could only feel the breath of ice and snow, just like Lin Xuefeng.
Somehow, the name "huai yu" was associated with Lin Xuefeng, making him even more irritated.
Therefore, he did not even take a step into the house. He just stood at the door with one hand holding up the door curtain, and with a slight movement of his other hand, the seeds in his palm quickly sprouted.
Then, like a spirit snake, it reached forward without hesitation.
But Wu Yue didn't expect that even in Lin Xuefeng's last letter, which was just a few words left for a girl he had only met once, the small ice sculpture contained an extremely sharp ice and snow wind blade! Feeling his unceremonious aura of supernatural power and judging that the other party had no good intentions, the ice sculpture shattered with a crisp sound!
then--
The sharp fragments were swept by the strong wind that appeared out of nowhere, and they were shattered in all directions! Caught off guard, Wu Yue, who was facing the impact, was extremely embarrassed to dodge left and right in the narrow space. Even Zhou Qian, who was following behind him, was unable to react in time and was severely hit by the broken ice! Not to mention the house...
The house is now...
Zhou Qian lowered his head heavily.
Because he had no way to explain to Huaiyu why General Wu could break into her house so brazenly and try to take her things.
And why was there no kindness, which led to the ice sculpture's strong resistance and counterattack?
"sorry."
He could only mutter his apology again.
"Some extremely powerful psychics can seal their abilities in matter. When they encounter certain situations - such as the sharp stimulation of psychic energy, the sealed abilities will be stimulated!"
"Have you read novels? Like the talismans in fantasy novels, or magic scrolls or something like that."
"Some extremely powerful people will use this method to leave a final means of protection for their relatives or those on a mission."
"But, it's very difficult and very all-consuming... We... None of us expected it."
I didn't expect that Lin Xuefeng was obviously contaminated and was about to break through the critical value, but he was still so strong.
What was even more unexpected was that after just meeting him once, he would quietly leave such a precious thing for Huaiyu.
That was not just a parting gift, it was clearly a powerful amulet and trump card for the little orphan girl in the wilderness.
Update 1 is here! To the most gentle Lin Xuefeng in the world!
