Chapter 146: Mountain Rain is Coming
"One step late. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Looking at the gloomy walled city below, Xuanwu's face was also gloomy, and a few jagged patterns on his head flashed a few electric sparks.
The power in the scabbard has obviously been sucked dry by itself, how can the fluctuations of the blade still be covered, it should only become more and more violent with the passage of time...... But that's fine, at least the demon source won't dissipate too much.
Only then, only when he was very close could he sense it, Xuanwu raised his earthy yellow head and looked into the distance, only to see a series of mountains and hills.
The power on the scabbard has not yet been fully fused, and according to the current progress, it will only take half a year to successfully refine all the power in the body.
Half a year, it's not enough for me to sleep, forget it, let's just find a place to squint, after leaving Penglai Island, the demon power is consumed too fast, it's only two days, and the demon power is only less than thirty percent left, and it can only be replenished by sleeping......
But fortunately, as long as it takes another half a year, there will be no need to live such a tight life, and by that time, there will be enough strength to break through the barrier of Penglai Island.
Just before that, as soon as Xuanwu's eyes fell, his mouth opened, and he made a "poof" sound, as if his lips were stained with debris, and he spit it out so lightly, and a light cluster the size of a bird's egg suddenly appeared in his originally empty mouth, and in an instant, it shot towards the city of the donkey like an arrow from the string, and suddenly disappeared into the big mansion in the middle.
"Crack, crackle, crackle, crackle, crackle...... Boom !!" crackled like static electricity emission, the frequency was very low at first, but soon it was like a basket and it became more and more urgent, more and more urgent, and finally returned to calm, and the depression after the calm only lasted for a short period of one or two seconds, and then I heard a loud "boom", as loud as a drum beating in my ears, and half of the city was shrouded in a golden blue light.
When the dense crackling sound in the ears stopped, the light cluster also dissipated in the air, and what appeared in front of Xuanwu's eyes was a piece of scorched earth as black as ink, whether it was stone bricks or terracotta, they all became charred ash and gradually wet by the rain, mixed into a paste, looking at what he saw in front of him, Xuanwu's wrinkled face couldn't help but show a satisfied smile.
Then, half of it, he turned his gaze to the remnants of the building, completely oblivious to the cries of the ants below.
……
"This is?" The thunderous sound that suddenly appeared behind him startled Cheng Li, and before he could turn around, a strong and dazzling golden light shone over, which was stopped by his voice body, and pulled out a long, long shadow in front of his eyes, Cheng Li was stunned for a moment, until he sensed that the light behind him was dimming, and then quickly turned around.
Although the light dimmed in a matter of seconds, leaving only the still gloomy wilderness, surrounded by the lonely sound of rain, as if the scene was just an illusion, Seungli already knew what he wanted to know.
"The City of Su?" Cheng Li muttered.
If you stay there...... As a result, he escaped for his life unknowingly, and survived without knowing anything.
Cheng Li didn't feel this for long, what made him even more concerned was that his originally extremely sensitive intuition didn't play a role this time, until he saw the blazing light, he realized that he felt extremely uneasy, telling him how dangerous things were going on, and before, he didn't feel a little uneasy, not a little anxious, not aware of the slightest danger.
In hindsight, can this still be considered intuition?
Chengli exhaled heavily, his mood became heavy, and he had to think twice about what he did in the future.
As for what happened to the city of Su, Chengli didn't think too much, because he knew that he didn't know what happened anyway, and at most he could only guess that the city of Suzhi had been destroyed, which didn't surprise him much compared to Jing's death.
After all, it's just a bunch of waste.
Don't be like that.
……
“…… Above. ”
"Oh, that's right. Bai Sheng Zhengxiong listened to the report of his subordinates and nodded, "I know." "Everything was burned, so no information was found, so that's it, that's it...... Since you haven't found any clues, then why are you coming back! You still have this face back?!!
But Bai Sheng Zhengxiong didn't say anything, just waved his hand: "Go down." ”
"Yes. The kneeling attendant bowed and bowed, but Shirabu Masao noticed his faint but happy breathing.
If it were according to the clan rules, this kind of guy should die, but it's not the same as it used to be...... It's so fast, so resolute, so powerless.
Bai Sheng Yizhen looked at his uncle standing in place so fixedly, burly, expressionless, and his whole body was filled with the majesty of the patriarch Bai Sheng, but standing behind him, he had already noticed that his uncle was no longer young.
The gray hair, the loose skin, the complexion that was no longer rosy, and the hand that was still trembling hanging down the back of the waist......
It's already old, yes, after all, it's an old man over fifty years old, in this era when the average age is only about forty, and fifty years old belongs to longevity, he is already an out-and-out old man.
After standing for only a moment, Shirasheng Masao walked out of the hall, leaning on the railing and pillars on the platform, looking at the family soaked in the rain, and suddenly felt a burst of twilight rushing towards his face.
The Bai Sheng clan occupies an extremely wide area, including the surrounding three high mountains, and there is a large continuous building complex at the bottom of the mountain, with many courtyards and scattered places, although the territory is not as large as those with hundreds of years of history, it is not to be underestimated, and its power has spread to the territory of Izu, which is enough to control the four mage cities!
After the ancestors of the Bai Sheng family chose to take root here, they have gone through the struggle, hard work, and overcoming obstacles of generations of descendants, and finally have today's scene, which is the family business that the ancestors of Bai Sheng have worked hard to save for generations!
Thinking of this, Bai Sheng Zhengxiong's eyes couldn't help but moisten a little.
It's just that the Baisheng clan is still in decline after all!
If you look closely, you will find the cracks and decay hidden in the corners and details, the original vermilion columns on both sides of the corridor have long faded their brilliance, and the grass is flat, but it also reveals the stale meaning, and the whole family is lifeless.
Bai Sheng Zhengxiong recalled the scene when he was a child, at that time, although the Bai Sheng family had declined, but there was still the support of the older generation, even if the family was full of hundreds of years of old mansions at that time, the clansmen and servants did not allow this kind of damage in the dark.
"yes, even the Glacier Shrine, the most powerful force in Suruga, was wiped out in one day, not to mention my white family, a small family that is only less than two hundred years old. ”
Bai Shengzheng sighed in his heart, and couldn't help but recall the scene when he was a child and walked through the vermilion corridor with his parents to participate in the grand sacrifice of the family, the incense and candle burners covered the courtyard, and the precious incense lingered over the family for a whole day, one by one the spells rose into the air, bursting out like fireworks, emitting blue and white, bright green, silver purple, crimson and golden light, praying, praying, enjoying the Zhenyao wine, and finally, the elders of the family appeared one by one, using powerful mana to solidify the family enchantment, that magnificent and passionate scene, has not been seen for forty years。
There are many emotions in my heart, or nostalgia, or thinking, joy or sadness, but Bai Sheng Zhengxiong's face still has not changed at all.
I remember that since I became the patriarch, I haven't laughed again, no matter what happens, I only need to keep my face expressionless, and I can only keep my face expressionless, and now I don't even remember how to laugh, no, not just laughing...... It should be said that I will only keep this face.
But this is the majesty of being the patriarch, until he died, his father had that expression, and when the eldest brother and the second brother died, it was only that expression......
"Go and get it," Bai Sheng Zaoyun called over—
Just as he was about to habitually say his words, Bai Sheng Zhengxiong realized that Bai Sheng Zaoyun had already gone to the Glacier Shrine, along with the other two mages in the clan.
It's really old......
It's just that, including himself, there are only three mages left, in order to show sincerity, half of the mages in the clan were sent, and for this reason, two mages stationed in the mage city were also transferred, originally thought to be foolproof, after all, the surrounding forces have also surrendered, they are all all the way, and they are also related to each other......
How did you know that such a thing would happen, and there would be no disaster?
No, Bai Sheng Masao sighed in his heart: It won't be so simple.
Since there is no extra combat power to be drawn, then ......
"All my life, go and fetch the treasure in the offering tower. ”
"Which one is the offering tower?" Bai Sheng was really stunned, and he didn't react for a while.
"It's the mirror enshrined at the top of the tower. ”
But there is a successor, this is not bad, Bai Sheng Zhengxiong looked at the sturdy back of his nephew, and couldn't help but feel a sigh of relief, at the age of thirty, he had already become a mage, in addition to the enchantment, he also mastered the secret spell of the Bai Sheng family.
Hey, it's just a bone thrown by those big clans in Kyoto, but even if it's just a bone, it's already a first-class secret art in the wild land of Kanto.
You have to protect him well, he is the future of the Bai Sheng clan!
…… Therefore, he also needs to be sharpened well, at least before he leaves this world, he must be trained to be an excellent patriarch, and there are still five or six years, which is enough......
"Well, then, I'll go, uncle. ”
"Hmm. Although he was as cold as ever, Bai Shengyi really heard the anxiety clearly.
The Epistle...... It's the first time I saw the patriarch change his face I don t know what kind of information it is, bai sheng yizhen looked at the family pavilion behind him that was gradually covered by the mountains, and his heart was heavy.
This kind of stormy season, there is really no room for the slightest slackness, the glacier shrine is a naked performance, now those mages should have been looting, I don't know what Lord Zayun-sama has gained.
Forget it, it's not something I should think about, I have only one task, to find the reason for the destruction of the walled city, at least ...... Also know if it's targeted by other families!
Find the body of Masashige Miyama and find out why the walled city was destroyed!
"How come, how come!" Bai Sheng Masao couldn't suppress the shock in his heart anymore after Bai Sheng Yizhen left, and slapped it directly on the table, his face full of shock.
That's nearly fifty mages, and there are four intermediate mages, and none of them survived, Glacier Shrine...... Even Suruga's largest force could not have this kind of power, and since the establishment of the barrier, it has hardly been heard of any mage who has died unexpectedly, even if it is only a junior mage......
This should be the most influential thing since Yunmenghu, the enchantment didn't play a little bit of a role, what happened to it?I feel that there is a remnant of demon power? But it's impossible, unless it's a big demon, someone will definitely be able to escape, but it's impossible for a big demon to do this kind of thing, and the residual demon power is not the one that the known big demons ......
No, impossible, Shiraku Masao shook his head, the appearance of that kind of existence will cause changes in heaven and earth, and it is impossible to hide it from the archmage, not to mention the monitoring of Ise Jingu......
The strong wind blew, bringing a rain curtain to sway, sprinkled on Bai Sheng Zhengxiong's body, feeling the coolness on his body, Bai Sheng Zhengxiong stopped thinking, looking at the mountain shadow shrouded by the rain curtain in the distance, the earth, his mood couldn't help but be heavier
The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and Bai Sheng Zhengxiong suddenly has a vague feeling, which is just the beginning......
