Hard to be a shadow guard

Xie Yiqian barely suppressed the depression in his heart, and closed the door behind his back, as if he was afraid of shocking the people under the table, he slowly slowed down his steps, almost walking on tiptoe.

"Xuan Ying?" Xie Yiqian squatted down, looked at the person under the table who was buried in his face and couldn't see his expression, and called out softly.

After the call, no one answered, Xie Yiqian did not give up, and called out again: "Xuanying!"

The deep and thick voice hit Xuanying's eardrums heavily, and he wandered and sank in the darkness, not asking where he came from, not looking for a way out.

Originally, he was already used to such a dark color, and he was also used to hiding under the table without caring about anything else. Huang Mei's nagging in his ear for three consecutive days was completely ignored by him.

But with just such a call, it pierced through the high wall built by Xuanying, and hit the heart with a bang.

He raised his head slowly, but because he failed to estimate the height of the table, he hit the bottom of the table with a "boom", causing a rumbling sound in his head.

hurts a little.

Xuanying didn't care, he opened his eyes with difficulty, trying to make out the figure in front of him in the darkness.

Xie Yiqian felt relieved when he finally had a reaction, but he was still worried about scaring people, so he lowered his volume rarely, and the jade bell had a gentleness that he hadn't noticed himself.

"Come on Xuanying, come out, not below, come out—"

I don't want Xuan Ying to hear the words and just shake her head: "I won't go out."

Before Xie Yiqian could be astonished, Xuanying's next sentence made him feel cold: "The master is tired of his subordinates, don't annoy the master, don't go out, hide..."

After finishing speaking, Xuanying paused, and finally stopped caring about the outside environment, slowly moved his head back, and knelt on his knee again.

"No..." Xie Yiqian wanted to refute, but he didn't know what to say.

The musty smell in the room was very strong, and Xie Yiqian could see the completely cold bread on the table when he raised his eyes.

And at this time, the people hiding under the table clearly didn't want to pay any attention to him.

Xie Yiqian hesitated for a moment, feeling that he couldn't let it go any longer, he stood up a little irritatedly, walked directly to the window, pulled down the black pull with one hand, and pushed the two windows open.

The moonlight that suddenly appeared poured into the room, and Xuan Ying, who was hiding under the table, seemed to sense it, and immediately curled herself up even tighter.

At this time, Xie Yiqian had already returned the same way, but he didn't give Xuanying a chance to refuse, he grabbed the table with both hands, and with a "bang", the table was lifted up, and the people under the table were instantly exposed.

"Oh!" Xuanying seemed to be frightened, and let out a low moan from his throat, and tightened his arms even more.

Xie Yiqian suppressed the anger in his heart, he didn't know how Xuanying became like this, but he still rushed forward, pressed Xuanying's head and revealed his face: "Look at this king, look at who this king is!"

He growled at Xuanying, and Xuanying trembled in fright with just one sound, his eyes glistened like a little deer, and he was terrified to bear the intimidation from the outside world.

Seeing this, Xie Yiqian's anger grew inexplicably.

But before he could get angry again, Xuanying seemed to wake up suddenly, and he asked tentatively: "My lord?"

"Who else could it be if it's not this king!" Xie Yiqian said angrily.

After getting the affirmation, Xuan Ying was stunned, he could hardly believe the arrival of the person in front of him.

Shen Shen indulged his depravity for three days, only turning to ashes the moment he saw Xie Yiqian.

"You..." Xie Yiqian was about to say something, but he didn't want Xuanying to break away from him suddenly, and immediately turned around in his astonishment, the next moment——

It was the shadow guard kneeling in front of him meticulously.

"My subordinate Xuanying... see the master." Xuanying said with a dry voice that hadn't opened his mouth for many days.

Xie Yiqian didn't care about his greetings, and Xuanying's appearance before still had a big impact on him.

Xie Yiqian frowned and asked, "What happened to you just now? A few days ago... You were always like this?"

Unexpectedly, Xuanying didn't answer, but instead asked: "The master still needs subordinates?"

"Otherwise?" Xie Yiqian was puzzled, "Who told you that I don't need you anymore?"

His words hit Xuanying's heart and made him tremble, as if he couldn't believe it, but as time slowly flowed, Xuanying bent down and took a few steps forward, finally stopping at Xie Yiqian's feet.

He lowered his head and lightly placed his forehead on Xie Yiqian's toes.

He has humbled to the extreme and lowered all his posture.

"The subordinates know that their fate is worthless and dare not ask the lord for mercy. However, the subordinate Yingge has been trained for more than eight years, and they are equipped with crude martial arts. They only hope to serve the lord as a dog and horse."

Xuanying's forehead rested on Xie Yiqian's toes, obviously he couldn't feel the heat through the boots, but Xie Yiqian still felt that his toes were burning and sultry.

Crying suddenly appeared: "If the master thinks that the eyes of the subordinate are dirty, even if he is close to death, he will not order his subordinates, but please give the order of the master, and the subordinates are willing..." He raised his head, tears glistened in his dim eyes , "The subordinate is willing to kill himself and die, so as not to pollute the bright eyes of the Lord."

Speaking of this, Xuanying seemed to have suddenly turned on the switch, and the uneasiness and despair of many days poured out at the same time.

Originally, he should never have been so close to the Lord, let alone his improper behavior and disrespectful words.

But in the end, Xie Yiqian had just pulled him out of the chaos, and the humility and obedience engraved in his bones was temporarily suppressed.

I saw Xuanying sniffling, but couldn't hold it back in the end, before waiting for Xie Yiqian's answer, she threw herself forward, opened her arms to hug Xie Yiqian's legs, and burst into tears.

At this moment, Xie Yiqian was only at a loss for what to do.

Xuanying was crying and wailing, and what he said was confused or even vague, but it didn't prevent Xie Yiqian from listening to the general idea.

Xuanying was sobbing, begging for mercy while crying: "This subordinate does not want to die in vain, please serve the Lord... Please don't leave the subordinates alone, the subordinate really can't take it anymore, already two It's been a month..."

"This subordinate does not want to be a useless person under your family, please give me an order, this subordinate will never hesitate to die, this subordinate begs for your kindness——"

Xuanying snotted and burst into tears, all the tears stood on Xie Yiqian's robe, but Xie Yiqian could no longer utter the words of rejection.

"The subordinates know that they are inferior, so they dare not exceed the rules." Xuanying raised his head and hissed almost in despair, "I will strictly abide by my duty, and I only ask the Lord for mercy."

Yes, he no longer dared to think about things that should not belong to him.

In the days to come, he would voluntarily dedicate himself to the lord's love poison, but he dared not reveal any excess affection.

The price is too great.

Xie Yiqian had lost the words to respond a long time ago, he just looked at the crying person at his feet, while feeling powerless, he unexpectedly had a... pleasure of revenge.

Look, this is what happened to you, King Xiao Xiang.

Behold, this is what happens to your wishful thinking.

Look, this is what happens to you... when you don't know people clearly.

To put it bluntly, it wasn't all because he was incompetent, he couldn't even protect the shadow guards under him.

Xie Yiqian struggled to free his legs from Xuanying's confinement, forgot the so-called superiority for the first time, pulled Xuanying up forcefully, and then hugged Xuanying into his arms.

The light words hit Xuanying's ear, causing a burst of itching.

It's just that the content of those words is not so exciting, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is chilling.

Xie Yiqian said in a cold voice: "Xuanying, this king has said it before, I can't give you what you want, thinking too much is nothing but harming others and yourself."

"As for why I imprisoned you for so long, I have my own considerations. Even if I come back again, I will not regret it."

Xie Yiqian patted Xuanying's back comfortingly with his big hand: "It's just that you have a wrong idea, even if this king really despises you, it is impossible for this king to abandon you. How much effort has been wasted by this king to get rid of you?" You cultivated it?"

"It's you who underestimated yourself." Xie Yiqian said affirmatively, "What's more, how my king treated you before is still the same now, you don't need to think about it at all."

Although Xuanying didn't say anything, she couldn't help shouting in her heart, and couldn't help but refute——

no!certainly not!If it weren't for today's...he is sure that the master would want to lock him up until he dies.

It doesn't matter what he thinks in his mind, it's impossible to talk to Xie Yiqian after all.

And during this period of time, Xuanying's mood also calmed down a little bit. Although she was still panting uncontrollably, at least she didn't lose control as before.

He just listened quietly like this, listening to everything the Lord said to him, is it an explanation?Or appease.

It doesn't matter anymore.

Xuanying's eyes were gloomy, he didn't know how to face the Lord in the future after what happened today.

If what the lord said is true, then he will definitely put in more effort when he receives the task, and he will definitely live up to the lord's entrustment.

But what if it's fake?

Xuan Ying has experienced such situations too many times, and it is really hard for him to believe in something disrespectful.

Xie Yiqian couldn't hear a response for a long time, so he could only sigh lightly, let go of Xuanying, and without waiting for the other party's reaction, held Xuanying's right hand with his backhand.

Xuan Ying subconsciously looked down, held her breath, and unconsciously stared blankly at the pair of hands that were clasped together.

Xie Yiqian led him all the way back to the bed, and lay down on him without any explanation: "Xuan Ying, be obedient, and take a good rest."

"This king assures you that when you wake up, this king will give you an explanation."

Obviously knowing that the credibility is not high, but looking into those bottomless black eyes, Xuan Ying just nodded blankly.

Xie Yi subconsciously knew that this was because Xuanying hadn't recovered from the collapse just now, so he didn't care about it for a while, instead he sat down considerately, reached out and pulled the quilt over Xuanying's body.He said: "Sleep, this king is watching you."

Xuanying's heart was in a mess, but upon hearing this, she obediently closed her eyes.

Originally, he didn't want to fall asleep, but relying on the keen sense of smell of a martial arts practitioner, surrounded by the familiar faint fragrance, Xuanying finally lost consciousness.

When Xie Yiqian put Xuanying to sleep, the willows were already covered outside the window, and Huang Mei, who was pushed away by him earlier, waited for a long time in front of the door.

He also listened to everything in the house.

When Xie Yiqian pushed the door and came out, he stopped after only three or two steps away. Directly in front, Huang Mei knelt down in front of her, her back straight.

He said: "The lord is merciful, I beg the lord to give Xuan Ying a way out."
