The Purple Moon Hangs and Leaves Chapter 23 The General Draws the Bow at Night
In the desert, it was still night, Long Ao stood in front of the high altar, looking at the quaint lines and cracks on the altar, accompanied by a gust of wind, as if telling a story that lasted for thousands of years.
"Boss, I found it. Behind him, Andrei stepped forward with a yellowed book in his hand.
Long Ao turned his head: "Let's talk about it." ”
"Have you seen 'The Peach Blossom Spring'?" asked Andre first.
"I've seen it. Long Ao nodded and lit a cigar.
"This Moonlight City and the Peach Blossom Land are the same thing," Andre looked at Long Ao, "The Moonlight City exists in another dimension with the legendary mysterious realms such as the Star Empire, the Valley of Ashes, and the Barren Desert, but the timeline it has experienced is completely consistent with the time we have experienced. ”
Long Ao nodded and spit out the smoke in his mouth: "You continue." ”
"The Moonlight City has been ruled by the Purple Moon Imperial Family for thousands of years, and it is friendly with the Star Empire in the west, but the alien races north of the Moonlight City have always coveted the land of the Moonlight City and the Star Empire, and have gone out on many expeditions to crusade, and the Purple Moon Imperial Clan has been forced to use the national treasure Yuehua to open a barrier across the east and west with the support of the Star Empire, permanently isolating the alien race from the rich land in the south. Andre flipped through the book, trying his best to describe the obscure language in the book to Long Ao completely and straightforwardly.
"Let's talk about Yuehua. Long Ao said as he walked towards the fighter, and Andre followed him, reading with his head down intently.
"The Moonlight City's National Treasure 'Yuehua' is a sacred treasure forged by the flawlessness of the Moonlight, but only the bloodline of the Purple Moon Imperial Family can drive it," Andre paused and continued, "The Purple Moon Imperial Family, who are afraid of the power of the Moonlight and are afraid that it is driven by greed, will disperse the power of the Moonlight, one part of which is the 'surface' of the Moonlight, and the other part is the 'inside'. ”
"The 'table' of 'Yuehua' is just a shell, which is the support of Yuehua's true power, and the power of 'Table' itself is very small, which can only support the barrier between the Moonlight City and the alien desert from being destroyed, and the 'li' is the true power of Yuehua, which is the supreme power that can turn all impure things into nothingness. ”
"So...... I'm tantamount to sending my team members to the Moonlight City to die, right?" Long Ao walked into the cabin, squinting his eyes at the endless dark night in the distance.
"You can't say that," Andre followed Long Ao into the cabin, and while reading the book, he skillfully took out two glasses and a bottle of whiskey from the cabinet of the plane, "Just now the book said that the power of 'Yuehua' is scattered, although the power of 'Li' is strong, it needs a support, and this support is the princess of the Purple Moon Royal Family of the past dynasties." ”
"Put more ice cubes on me. Long Ao watched Andre take out the wine, raised the cigarette butt and pointed at him.
"The book says that each generation of the Purple Moon Imperial Family will give birth to a princess who is chosen by the Moonlight Goddess to inherit the power of Yuehua, and when the princess is full of moon, the Moonlight Goddess will appear at the central altar of Moonlight City to send down an oracle," Speaking of this, Andre pursed his lips with some suspicion, "Although it has become a container, none of the princesses in the past generations can drive the power of Yuehua'. After saying that, he stepped forward and handed the wine to Long Ao.
"It's because of the lack of support from the 'table'. Long Ao said with a wine glass.
Andre nodded: "This is also the method of the Purple Moon Alien Race to prevent the power of Yuehua from being used in the wrong way." ”
"I knew that the mission would be so troublesome, so I let you go with them. Long Ao took a sip of the wine in his glass and looked up at the starry sky.
"What they can do well," Andre smiled, "Gu Lichuan can do better than me." ”
......
On the other side of the dungeon, all the imprisoned soldiers have been released, and there is a fierce battle with the alien warriors who guard them. The dungeon was in chaos, but the palace reinforcements were slow to arrive, and the patrol soldiers scattered throughout the city knew nothing about the dungeon. With a lot of rage, the soldiers of Moonlight City fought with the alien warriors with their blades in hand, and there was a great deal of potential to turn the situation around. Deep in the dungeon, however, the situation is not encouraging.
"Long, let's go!" With a wave of her hand, a gust of wind pushed Long out of the run-in, and the three wolves roared, and a pale green light overflowed from their mouths, aiming at Yinglan.
"Ying Lan!" Gu Lichuan shouted as he rushed to Ying Lan's side, the three wolves opened their mouths, and a dark green dark fire erupted from their mouths, Gu Lichuan blocked with a horizontal sword, the blue light of the laser sword was drowned out by the dazzling light of the dark fire, Gu Lichuan's battle suit began to burn from his wrist, and he didn't have time to think about it too much, his brows were furrowed and his teeth were clenched, and the sweat caused by the high temperature and nervousness flowed down his sideburns and forehead.
Ying Lan's left hand touched the ground lightly, and with a "boom", a masonry wall rose to block the dark fire. With a sigh of relief, Gu Lichuan sat on the ground, and Ying Lan hurriedly squatted down to support the crumbling Gu Lichuan. The laser sword made a "crackling" sound, and the light gradually faded. Looking at the smoke rising from Gu Lichuan's hands, Ying Lan clenched his hands.
"Hehe, your abilities are really amazing. Gu Lichuan held back the pain in his hand and smiled reluctantly.
"Don't speak," Ying Lan looked at his hand with some guilt, biting her lower lip tightly, "Are you stupid, what are you blocking!"
"If I don't block it, you'll get hurt. Gu Lichuan felt that the injury on his hand was much better, so he pulled out his hand and smiled at Ying Lan.
With a "boom", the stone wall was pushed by the three wolves, and with a roar, three pairs of dark green eyes looked at Ying Lan and Gu Lichuan.
Gu Lichuan stood up, picked up a broad-bladed sword used by an alien warrior scattered on the ground, stepped forward quickly, and said to Ying Lan behind him: "Since you are on a mission with me, I must not let you be injured in the slightest. ”
Ying Lan got up slowly, looked at Gu Lichuan's back, and suddenly felt that something choked up. Gu Lichuan in front of him was as heroic as a knight who protected the princess, although he was facing an evil dragon that was several times stronger than himself, he was not afraid at all. Wiping her eyes, Ying Lan smiled, lightly opened her lips, and said something as if she didn't have anything.
"Fool. ”
"Cover me!" Gu Lichuan's left eye began to glow, the body structure of the three-headed wolf in front of him became clear, and holding the heavy broad-bladed sword with both hands, Gu Lichuan quickened his pace and ran towards the three-headed wolf. Seeing Gu Lichuan attacking, the three wolves opened their mouths again and spat flames, Gu Lichuan jumped up violently, dodging the scorching flames, leaving a pitch-black fire pit on the ground behind him. Seeing that the flames were missed, the three wolves raised their claws and slapped towards Gu Lichuan. Suddenly, countless weapons flew into the air, knocking the claws of the three wolves to the side. On the ground, Ying Lan stood still, the orange light in her hand shining brilliantly in the gloomy dungeon.
"Lechuan, jump up!" As he spoke, Ying Lan waved his left arm, and a shield flew towards the three wolves, stepping on the shield, Gu Lichuan had a point of focus, so he exerted his strength with both legs and jumped on the neck of the three wolves.
Sensing Gu Lichuan falling on his body, the three wolves began to struggle violently, trying to throw Gu Lichuan off of him. One hand tightly grabbed its fur, and Gu Lichuan raised the broad-bladed sword in his hand.
Lao Lian, who ran to the deepest part of the dungeon, saw Long lying on the ground, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up: "What's the matter?"
"They, they...... Hurry, hurry in!" Thinking of the terrifying three-headed wolf and Gu Lichuan Yinglan who faced it, Long struggled to get up, urging Lao Lian to walk in again.
Enduring the violent bumps, Gu Lichuan saw the opportunity and swung the sword in his hand violently.
Lao Lian and Long, who walked into the deepest part of the dungeon, widened their eyes, and at the moment when Gu Lichuan gritted his teeth and swung his sword vigorously, with the gushing of crimson blood and a terrible wail, a huge head of the three wolves fell down with a "poof".
"Well done!" said Yinglan, delighted.
Smiling at her, Gu Lichuan spotted the second head of the three wolves.
Suddenly, the three wolves raised their necks and howled bitterly, and pale green flames suddenly rose from under its feet, devouring its huge body and Gu Lichuan riding on its neck in the blink of an eye.
"Uhh
"Gu Lichuan!" Ying Lan shouted in panic, "Gu Lichuan, come down quickly!
As soon as the words fell, the green flame became more violent, from the burning just now to a fierce rise, enduring the burning pain of being in hell, Gu Lichuan closed his right eye, the light of his left eye became more intense, and the pattern of a cross shone in the flame like a pillar of green light.
"Gu Lichuan......" Long looked at Gu Lichuan and lost his voice.
"Stop for a while!" shouted Gu Lichuan and swung his sword hard.
The sound of muscle tearing sounded, and the flames dissipated instantly. Along with the second head, the dying Gu Lichuan fell from the bodies of the three wolves and hit the ground hard.
"It seems that we have reached the limit......" With the green smoke, Gu Lichuan smiled slightly and let go of the broad-bladed sword in his hand. Behind him, the last of the heads of the three wolves bared their fangs at him.
Ying Lan stretched out his hand, and the weapon beside him floated up again, aiming at the three-headed wolf who opened its big mouth towards Gu Lichuan in mid-air.
Suddenly, a figure flashed by, bringing a short gust of wind and ruffling Lan's long hair. "Who is it?" Ying Lan looked back, but Long, who was still watching the battle just now, was nowhere to be found at the moment, leaving only Lao Lian with a shocked face.
"Long!" turned back suddenly, and in front of Lan's eyes, Gu Lichuan was hugged tightly by Long, as if trying his best to save, so that Gu Lichuan and Long avoided the bite of the three wolves, but the sharp fangs of the three wolves still scratched her arm.
"Ahh The three wolves did not hesitate and continued to rush. However, unexpectedly, a purple light suddenly escaped from Long's wound, and in an instant, the entire gloomy battlefield was illuminated. The three wolves were blinded by the moonlight, screaming and taking a few steps back, blood gushing from the two wounds on their necks.
Gu Lichuan felt that something was spilling on him, so he forcibly endured the pain and opened his eyes, and saw Ying Lan shaking his hands and a panicked look.
"Lethe, don't scare me!"
"I'm fine. Gu Lichuan waved her hand, looking at Long who was squatting on the side, with a smile on her face, and found that what she felt sprinkled on her body was actually the light that emanated from Long's wound. And on his body, the burning wound was actually recovering rapidly, and this speed was far from being able to be achieved by the Hand of God in the haunting land.
At this time, Lao Lian, who was hiding on the side, frowned tightly. As the moonlight slowly faded into Long's healing wounds, he stepped forward.
"Moonlight...... Long ...... "Seeing this, Lao Lian was talking to himself, and his face suddenly showed a look of horror. The three wolves roared and rushed forward to make a final stand.
"It's coming. Gu Lichuan looked at the three wolves with a gloomy face.
"Leave it to me. Behind the three of them, Lao Lian's voice sounded.
The three of them looked back - they saw that Lao Lian was holding a long sword, his eyes seemed to be sharp, and his body was like a general riding a horse, not at all as weak as before.
Seeing Lao Lian come forward, the three wolves dropped their claws suddenly.
Without the slightest intention of retreating, Lao Lian held the sword in both hands, his eyes widened angrily, and the long sword in his hand suddenly fell.
A sword qi swept across the battlefield like a white rainbow through the sun, and the movements of the three wolves came to an abrupt end. After a moment of silence, behind the three wolves, a huge sword mark was slammed on the huge dark iron door, and the three wolves were lined up in half with a "click", and the blood gushed out like a rain of blood.
Under the shocked gaze of the three people, Lao Lian turned to look at Long who was squatting on the ground, and knelt on one knee with a sword.
"Moonlight City Imperial City Guard, Crusader Captain Lian Pu, see Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
