Volume 1 [Flame Chapter] Dragon Death Chapter 170 Dragon Qing (47): Scarlet Calamity
"I, how did I get here?did someone send me back?" Luo Heng said with his head in his hands, and then Luo Sijie helped him to get up from the bed in the room arranged for them by the guild hall, and slowly walked to the wooden chair on the side and sat down.
"It was Zhou Xingzhou, the manager of the palace, who sent you over. No matter how you do, you have to take care of your body, how can you drink so much? If you have a problem with your body, we in Longqing will not be able to carry out normal operations in three days. Luo Sijie muttered.
"How so? It's just a feast. Luo Heng smiled bitterly.
Truth be told, until he was awake for a while, his head still had some lingering feeling of coma, and a lingering pain.
In last night's dream, he really couldn't figure out whether it was the hallucinations caused by drunkenness, or if the dream was really real that caused him to fall into a coma.
However, the so-called "underworld" and the long-dead spirit void that he saw yesterday, as well as the strange conversation between them, Luo Heng remembered it clearly, and no key information was lost.
After all, even in real dreams, if there is information that you feel is very important, it will not be forgotten after waking up from the dream.
"Father, let me give you a massage, it will get better soon. ”
Luo Sijie said, rolled up the sleeves of her hands, stretched out her hands, placed them on both sides of Luo Heng's brain, and gently rubbed the temples for him to relieve the discomfort after being drunk.
"Why, it's a little bit like you today. If it weren't for some task, you would have behaved like Luo Qi's men, do you want to be a girl today? Haha. Luo Heng said jokingly.
However, Luo Sijie didn't take the words to say anything, but continued to massage gently.
I don't know if it's the psychological effect, or the proper massage technique of Luo Sijie, the tingling, dizziness and an indescribable slight suffocation feeling that Luo Heng felt when he got up in the morning gradually dissipated under his daughter's massage.
It is as if at first you are in a gray and foggy weather, and the surrounding area is invaded by oppressive darkness from time to time, and then a gentle sunlight breaks through the fog and gloom, and you see the grasslands, lakes and mountains again.
But even if he was temporarily in comfort and relaxation, Luo Heng still did not forget the impending crisis. There are opportunities hidden in danger, in fact, it is the principle of everything, but in his opinion, any nobleman can be very aware of the danger of Long Qing opening the door of the dragon clan, and also know that even if he controls the power of the dragon clan, it will definitely bring at least future hidden disasters to the mainland.
But the Emperor and the nobles around him had been preparing for at least ten years, and the fact that all parties had planned so far was enough to show that none of the parties involved were a whim.
With such an obvious crisis, the little emperor couldn't see through it, or the little emperor saw through it, and after weighing the pros and cons, he still chose to proceed.
Between Luo Heng's soft thoughts, Luo Sijie suddenly stopped massaging her hand and walked in front of Luo Heng in two steps, no longer able to hide the emotions on the verge of collapse in her heart: "Father, you say, can we still save Ye Gu?"
"Ye Gu, do you know about him?" although Luo Heng asked uncertainly, he also had a sadness in his heart along with Luo Sijie.
But he is the prime minister of this empire, and he cannot bring any such dangerous emotions into the daily affairs of the empire and the meeting with the emperor.
Sympathy for traitors is a taboo in this vast empire with a military theme.
"Got it. When she said these three words, Luo Sijie couldn't control the tears in her eyes and cried straight out.
"Alas, it was his fate. Luo Heng comforted, hugged Luo Sijie into his arms, and let her emotions vent.
After nearly a minute, Luo Sijie's mood gradually moved from collapse to relaxation. As a human being, or a human woman, perhaps only the expression of true emotions can slightly soothe the inner anxiety and anxiety.
"Do we still have a chance to save him? Is this what he deserves to happen when he sees Dragonbook?" Luo Sijie asked, looking up.
The crying just now had wet her face, and it had also made her neat hair a little messy.
"Even if he is the one who has the ability to stop Long Qing, we won't have time to rescue him. There were only three days to reach the final Longqing, and those imperial troops were already waiting inside the imperial capital. As far as I know, the emperor wants to contribute two sacrifices to the dragon clan this time to ensure that the dragon celebration can be carried out normally. You think, the young man who has the dragon crystal and comes into contact with the dragon clan, and does not cooperate with the empire, even if he is not at fault, His Majesty will not choose to let him go. What's more, if it is such a crime as a direct assassination, His Majesty must not intend to forgive it at all. ”
"Isn't Your Majesty a man who trusts in the Lord? Luo Sijie lost her mind and began to speak incoherently.
Isn't it a joke? The Lord has not completely forgiven the devil, much less for something more severe than the devil. Luo Heng smiled bitterly, and gently stroked Luo Sijie's hair and back.
It's like a real father.
"In this case, can we just watch Long Qing unfold, the dragon clan reappear, and finally bring disaster to this continent?" Luo Sijie said, struggling to get up from Luo Heng's arms, standing in front of him and staring at him blankly.
"Not really. Luo Hengdi replied very firmly.
"Then what else can be done? Father, as long as there is a way, the daughter can do anything!" Luo Sijie heard this, and a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Luo Heng could see that that kind of light was called hope.
In the history and reality of this continent, what people lack most is hope. Seeing this in the eyes of his daughter now, he knew that they and everyone who wanted to stop Long Qing had not yet failed.
"We also have someone who can help us do what we have to do. ”
"Who?"
"Wu Machinery!" Luo Heng said, getting up from the wooden seat, easily walking to the side of the drawer and squatting down.
The official hall of the empire is still in the same simple style as the emperor, even in the room where Prime Minister Luo Heng temporarily lives, it is basically no different from the furnishings of a medium-sized family.
But one of the objects in the drawer was brought by Luo Heng himself, so at the small lock of the drawer, he imposed a taboo.
This is a taboo that belongs to the magic source power, and if it is not opened by Luo Heng's own magic source power, the important items in it will be hidden in another dimension.
"Wood rises from water, and it grows endlessly!" Luo Heng whispered a spell that belonged to his demonic power.
Slowly, from between his hands, a clear stream of green and blue magic source power came out.
The small golden chain, like a small insect at the mercy of power, turned into a pile of pieces between the two strands of demonic power that passed through in an instant.
Luo Sijie watched the intertwined changes between the magic source power and the forbidden from the side, and she suddenly found that the magic source power, which was like a short knife used by an assassin, did not directly cut this golden lock, but more like distorting and destroying the space where it was located.
"That's it. Luo Heng said, and carefully placed a women's purse in the bottom of the drawer in Luo Sijie's hand.
"This, what is this?" Luo Sijie, who came back to her senses, took the purse in her hand that did not look very special, and asked curiously.
"You don't care what this is, you just bring him to Wu Qi. In my capacity, it is my duty to routinely inquire about some of the affairs of the Empty Army. By the way, take this document with you, you should know how to do it. Luo Heng commanded, and by the way, handed over a piece of paper on the table with the emblem of the Flame Empire and the pattern of the airship to Luo Sijie.
"I, I know. Luo Sijie nodded and said, putting the purse into a pocket in the jacket of the Yan suit, and the document was held in his hand, ready to show his identity and purpose to others at any time.
"It's six, well, fifteen. You remember, go to Wu Qi's side now, but after you come back from him, don't go anywhere here. I have to come back at 7 p.m. at the earliest. If we want to stop the disaster after Longqing, or rescue Yegu, you have to act according to my father's arrangement, so that we have a little chance of possibility. Luo Heng admonished.
"Yes, Father. Luo Sijie said, hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief on the side, and after briefly tiding her messy hair, she walked straight out of Luo Heng's room and the door of the entire official hall.
Looking at the simple furnishings around and the back of Luo Sijie leaving, Luo Heng's mind returned to the slightly hazy and tingling feeling before.
Lingxu's words he could never forget, but at this moment, they kept echoing in his mind: "All those who come into contact with scarlet will die, and so will I." ”
"Scarlet, apart from sin, what does it mean?" Luo Heng muttered to himself, shaking his head vigorously.
But he could never think of an explanation other than the Spiritual Void Words.
He never understood what kind of fire, ice and snow, light and dark contact, etc. Perhaps the Empire's Magicians would be able to realize it.
However, in this imperial capital, how could there be a familiar demon source master of the Luo family?
This kind of thinking almost brought Luo Heng into a whirlpool, I don't know if it was because of the drunkenness last night or something else, he suddenly felt that the room he was in, no, the whole world he was in was in an extreme shaking.
Knock, knock, knock!
The rapid and heavy knock on the door quickly interrupted Luo Heng's hallucinations and thoughts, pulling him back from his psychedelia to reality.
"Who?" Luo Heng asked cautiously, and did not step forward to open the door.
"Master, I, Luo Wu. Luo Qi came over secretly from Nandu, and he has important things to report to the master, should we go see him now. Luo outside the door shouted in a useless and immature voice, and did not open the door easily.
"Come in. Luo Heng commanded.
Squeak-
Luo Wu opened the door straight and entered the room, and a sense of urgency and anxiety on his face was unreservedly displayed in front of Luo Heng.
"Is it in a hurry?" Luo Heng asked, got up and walked to Luo Wu's side, and closed the door with his hand.
"Those people who were imprisoned with the six-pointed star shield said something important, and Luo Qi had arrived here with those things. They also repeatedly mentioned two words, Luo Qi said that this might be related to Long Qing, so they also contacted the part of the Lin family that we worked with before, and they said that they would send someone at noon. Luo Wu said a little hurriedly.
"What words are related to Long Qing?" Luo Heng asked, feeling uneasy in his heart.
Luo Wu didn't answer immediately, but put his face to Luo Heng's ear and whispered, "Scarlet, disaster." ”
