Chapter 9: The Gray-robed Man
Xing Daorong handed over the rabbit in his hand to the guards beside him, then bowed down and knelt down, and said, "Your Majesty, the rabbit has come back, what to do, you can tell me." ”
Li Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows, obviously, this rabbit didn't know where it came from, so he waved his hand and said, "Take it and roast it." ”
Yin Bangmeng seemed to see Li Jiuxiao's thoughts, so he quietly made a few strange gestures behind him with his right hand, and after a few air distortions, he said in a coquettish voice, "Lord, let the slave go." ”
Li Jiuxiao glanced at Yin Bangmeng in surprise and nodded.
In fact, Li Jiuxiao didn't have to worry too much about everything, and after a while, a team of guards and palace maids came, and in this narrow field, a small pavilion was built, and Li Jiuxiao beckoned Zhuge Kongming and Xing Daorong to sit together.
After the two bowed down to thank him, they carefully sat down under Li Jiuxiao.
Li Jiuxiao picked up a glass of colorful glass, raised a glass to the two, and then took a sip of it, and a fruity fragrance went straight to his head.
"Whew~"
With a long sigh of relief, Jiuxiao couldn't help but sigh secretly for the beauty of life as an emperor.
Before a quarter of an hour arrived, one after another palace maids, holding plates in their hands, placed the delicate dishes on the plate in front of the table.
Looking at the roast rabbit meat on the plate that was cut beyond recognition, Li Jiuxiao looked at Yin Bangmeng and beckoned to her to sit next to him.
Yin Bangmeng sat beside Li Jiuxiao obediently, and added a piece of rabbit meat that was still bubbling to his bowl, and said with a smile: "Master, you quickly try the craftsmanship of the slave maid, the slave maid is also cooking for the first time." ”
Li Jiuxiao looked at the crispy rabbit meat that was roasted in front of him, took a bite, chewed for a while, gave Yin Bangmeng a thumbs up, and praised "crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, good craftsmanship!!"
Yin Bangmeng heard Li Jiuxiao's praise, her pretty face was slightly red, and her watery eyes were filled with joy from the heart.
Xing Daorong heard Li Jiuxiao's praise of Yin Bangmeng like this, and under Zhuge Kongming's surprised eyes, he stepped forward and grabbed a large rabbit leg with his dark big hand and took a big bite.
"Your Majesty, this is definitely the most delicious roast rabbit meat that the subordinate has ever eaten in his life, just like ....... It's like ......"
Xing Daorong's big mouth stuffed with rabbit meat froze for a moment, as if he remembered something, and said loudly, "Just like the 'restaurant' in the inner city." ”
Zhuge Kongming slapped his forehead, and secretly scolded this stupid big man for being too straight-hearted and his emotional intelligence was too low, even he could see that this rabbit meat was not rabbit meat, how could His Majesty not see that all this was just taking care of Yin Bangmeng's face, and it was not broken.
Yin Bangmeng's head was full of black lines, and he just looked at the expression on Jiuxiao's face worriedly.
Li Jiuxiao was stunned for a moment, but after a while, he laughed, raised the glass cup, touched the cup with Xing Daorong, a stupid big man, and grabbed Yin Bangmeng's jade hand and laughed loudly, "Today is also a loss of thoughtfulness to save dreams, otherwise you won't be able to taste the delicious food in this world, and you will be rewarded with a 'splendid fairy skirt', a jade phoenix purple gold hairpin, and a pair of eight treasure and jade ruyi." ”
As soon as the words fell, six palace maids, two by two, each holding a jade box, came to Yin Bangmeng.
Yin Bangmeng's face was blushing, knowing that this was from Li Jiuxiao's protection, and hurriedly thanked her.
"I have thanked the Lord for saving my dreams. ”
Li Jiuxiao pursed his lips, muttered a little, and then said, "Xingdao Rong is pure and has a red heart, which is commendable, and from now on, he will be promoted to the commander of the imperial guard and receive the golden sword guard." ”
In the Heavenly Court Palace, in addition to the armed force of Ling Xiaowei led by Bai Qi, there is only the Golden Sword Guard, but Ling Xiaowei's main duty is to protect the safety of the palace, unlike the Golden Sword Guard's main task is to protect the emperor.
Xing Dao Rong froze, he couldn't see through the joints, he couldn't imagine that he could be promoted by eating a rabbit leg.
Zhuge Kongming looked at this stupid big man who was still hanging aside, in addition to the armed force of Ling Xiaowei in Ling Xiao Palace, there was only the Golden Sword Guard, but Ling Xiaowei's main duty was to defend the imperial capital, unlike the main task of the Golden Sword Guard was to defend the emperor, Zhuge Kongming secretly kicked him from under the table.
"Oh!"
Xing Daorong glanced at Zhuge Kongming with a bewildered expression, and only then did he come to his senses and hurriedly knelt down, "The last general, Xing Daorong, thank Your Majesty for your grace." ”
At this time, Zhuge Kongming stood up and congratulated the two.
The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors
A person in a purple robe quietly appeared in front of the pavilion, and after making a big salute towards Jiuxiao, he arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, a total of thirty-four people have been captured outside the Star Picking Tower today, and they are now imprisoned in the dungeon, please instruct the emperor." ”
Li Jiuxiao glanced at Zhuge Kongming and said softly, "First press to the prison beast field in batches." ”
The purple-robed man was ordered to leave.
"Let's go back. ”
Li Jiuxiao touched Yin Bangmeng's hair, stood up, and rode on the white horse that Xing Daorong brought for him. Heading in the direction of the prison arena.
......
Duchy of Vic
In a dimly lit wine cellar in the royal city, eight gray-robed men who could not see their faces or genders sat around a shabby wooden round table, the air filled with the enticing aroma of red wine and ...... The smell of blood.
"I just received news from Faurwin that all the people we sent to the area around Marfa Peak have lost contact. ”
The voice was hoarse, like a withered yellow fingernail, desperately rubbing against the wooden floor, making people's scalps tingle and trembling all over the body.
"Did their people do it?"
Another disgusting sound.
"No way, if they did, then the corpse left behind would have been pierced at the entrance to the town of Mafaburn by sharp wooden thorns to warn us. ”
"It's not who else they are, for thousands of years, except for them to have the guts, there is no organization that dares to challenge us. ”
The hoarse voice repeated, and the tone of the voice was full of anger, as if it had a monstrous hatred for them, but it was also true that the two groups had been killing each other since a thousand years, and the corpses they had piled up could overwhelm the entire town of Boone.
"Enough!"
Seeing the sudden change in the atmosphere, the gray-robed man sitting on the main seat shouted angrily.
"I'm afraid you've forgotten what it is!"
The man didn't deliberately lower his voice, and sounded like a little girl of seventeen or eighteen.
When these words were spoken, the entire cellar suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke for a long time.
Since ancient times, it has been a forbidden place, it is said that in the period of gods and demons, there was a teleportation array, a lich from hell passed through the teleportation array into the world, in just three days, a kind of terror called black, from the south of the continent has spread to the north, in just three days, forty-seven cities, not a single grass, up to the top strong, down to the old and weak, women and children, none of them were spared, becoming an unconscious walking corpse. As a result, the powerhouses of the entire continent united and fought from the extreme north to the southern seas, and finally sacrificed themselves with the strongest god of law and thirty-six gods of war at that time, and sealed the lich between the two peaks of Marfa Peak and Daoling Peak.
"They also dare not start a war, once the blood nourishes the earth and the seal is loosened, who can know if the lich that belongs to the necromancy is dead. ”
After a moment of silence, the voice continued, "This time the appearance of Sky City, there is a high probability that there will be something like the legend, so even if it costs a lot, we have to get it, this is the greatest chance we can take out them in a thousand years." ”
