Chapter 499: Flint Falls from the Sky

In the second half of the night, the clouds in the sky suddenly increased without warning, and soon a thick layer was piled up, covering the whole sky, and the clouds were black, as if the earth was about to be swallowed up by this darkness.

At this time, a very bright red light appeared in the middle of the clouds, the red light was not static, and gradually became larger from the moment it appeared, from the first pinhole to the size of a bowl, and then to the size of a pot lid, and it continued to grow.

As the red light continued to increase, the dark clouds could no longer hide its light, and if someone looked up at this moment, they could see through the clouds that the red light that had grown larger was actually a flame.

In this way, the black clouds were swallowed up by the red firelight little by little, and the black clouds turned into brown evil clouds little by little, giving people an eerie and terrifying feeling when they looked at it.

The red light grew bigger and brighter, and finally the whole cloud became brown, and it was at this moment that the whole cloud suddenly brightened, and the brown color quickly faded, and then a strange red fire burst out of the cloud.

The earth shrouded in darkness turned red and brightened by the red light, even the air between heaven and earth.

The strange scene finally caught the attention of the guards and patrol soldiers, who looked up to see that the sky was completely obscured by blood clouds, and one of them was rolling in all directions, as if something was about to rush out.

Soon a flame burst out of the tumbling clouds, turning the night into day, and at noon with the fiery red sun hanging high, the fire was so dazzling that the soldiers covered their eyes.

After returning to the prince's mansion, Hua Lu went into her room and lay down, but she didn't want to sleep, she didn't feel sleepy, she kept her eyes open, she was thinking about how to save Ao Baifeng.

While Hanaro was thinking about it, suddenly a bright light shone in through the doors and windows.

Flowerdew's thoughts were interrupted, and she sat up suddenly, her eyes instinctively looking outside, "It's not dawn yet, something must be going on outside." ”

Blossom raised her hand and grabbed the door in the direction of the door, the door opened, and Blossom jumped out of the door, jumped on the roof and stared at the sky.

On the terrace of an exquisite attic in the left courtyard stood two people, also looking up at the sky, one was the crown prince, and the other was the old man in black who had followed Hualu.

Of course, it is far more than these people who are staring at the sky at this moment, many sleeping people in Qingcheng have been awakened by the strong light outside the house, and they have dressed and gone out of the house to see what is happening, but only a few martial arts masters can look up at the sky.

In addition to Qingcheng, there are naturally many, many people in other places who have seen it, and this scene is at a height of thousands of feet, even if you stand tens of thousands of miles away from Qingcheng, you can see it.

Any martial arts master who can look directly at the sky with his own cultivation will see the same scene, there is a flame falling at a very fast speed under the clouds, and if you look closely, you will find that the flame is not just a flame, but a burning stone to be exact.

The closer the burning stone is to the ground, the larger it becomes...... Thirty zhang ...... Seventy zhang, soon passed a hundred zhang.

The prince turned his head to the old man in black beside him and said: "Meteorites falling from the sky often indicate luck, you should go to see where the meteorite will fall on behalf of the palace now, and see if it is related to the great things that the palace will achieve." ”

"Yes. The old man in black answered, and his figure disappeared from the prince's side in a flash.

Because of gravity, the burning stone fell faster and faster, and after a few moments passed, the stone looked like it was two hundred zhang large, and it was only about two kilometers away from the ground.

In the blink of an eye, it was less than five hundred meters above the ground, and the stone looked close to three hundred zhang in size.

"That direction is ......" Hualu looked at the burning stone near the ground and stared, "It's the direction of death row, that proud white wind ......"

Flower Dew soared into the air and flew in the direction of death row.

Boom, with a loud sound that broke the sky, the burning stone fell to the ground, just hitting the death row of the Eastern Qing Empire, and in an instant, two-thirds of the entire death row was destroyed by the stone, and the entire death row and the surrounding three hundred meters were burned by the splashing sparks.

The moment the stone hit the ground, it also caused the ground to shake within a hundred miles nearby, and some people who were still asleep woke up from their dreams, picked up their clothes and ran outside.

"Ahhh......h Help me...... Help me...... Ahhhh

In the midst of the fire on death row, a wave of screams came out, and then someone rushed out of the fire, either the jailers guarding the prisoners, or the prisoners who escaped after the cell collapsed and were lucky not to be buried inside.

As soon as the men got out of the fire, they hurriedly rolled on the ground, trying to extinguish the fire on their bodies.

The strange thing is that the fire on these people can't be extinguished at all, not only can't be extinguished, but it burns more violently, and the miserable screams make people shudder, but soon they don't hear the screams of these people, and they all burn to death.

At this time, many soldiers and people rushed over, some carrying buckets, some carrying wooden basins, all filled with water, all of whom came to put out the fire.

You poured a bucket, I poured a basin, and a large amount of it was sprinkled on the fire, but the incredible thing is that the water was completely useless, and the fire did not abate at all.

And what's even more strange is that the ground where the people who were on fire before also began to burn, and quickly spread around, connected with the fire on death row, and if the situation is not stopped in time, it may spread hundreds of miles away, or even farther.

"Demon fire, this must be demon fire. ”

"Yes, only demon fire can't be extinguished. ”

"So what are you waiting for, run!"

Many ordinary people have little knowledge and superstitious habits, and when they saw that the fire could not be extinguished at all, they all thought it was a demon fire, and they immediately fled in fear.

After the shouting of the people, the soldiers suddenly became chaotic, and they all ran away.

At this time, the black-clothed old man of the Prince's Mansion suddenly appeared above the fire, holding the Prince's token in his hand, and transmitted his thoughts to the surroundings, saying: "I am here on the order of the Prince, and I also ask friends from all walks of life to help and work together to control the fire, and the Prince will definitely be grateful to you." ”

As soon as the black-clothed old man's thought transmission ended, fourteen figures flew around, each of them with a breath fluctuation that was not weaker than that of the Xuanzang Realm.

These fourteen people have been here a long time ago, and they have been hiding in the shadows and not appearing, the purpose of these people is not to put out fires, but to fall from the sky stones, and the things that have always fallen from the sky are not ordinary things, they are things that many masters want to get, or they are used for alchemy, or for building weapons.
