Chapter 288: Wake up from a dream
A woman once told him that war burns like wildfire in the hearts of people and never goes out.
Since ancient times, with the Yunjian River as the boundary, the Yin State and Yan Fu have been at war, the Yin State built the Yunan Pass to resist the attack of the Yan Fu people, and the Yan Fu people also built the Jingnan City to resist the invasion of the Yin people.
In the nineteenth year of the Great Yin Tianqi Dynasty, the death of the Empress Dowager Shuyue indirectly led to the outbreak of this war, and the Yin State declared war on the entire territory of Yanfu, and the final war between the two countries broke out.
Emperor Chu Xiaohua immediately sent an army to Jingnan City, in the face of the soldiers of the Yanshu army approaching the city, the people of Yinguo stubbornly resisted the invasion of the two armies, and the three princes of Yin, Chu Xuanzhao, resisted strongly, and set fire to the ship to defend the city before the arrival of the Phoenix Eagle Iron Cavalry.
The defeated Yan Fu army made the emperor anxious, and the emperor looked forward to reinforcements from the two vassal kings, but the Huailing king of Huaiquan temporarily defected to form an alliance with the Yin State, and sent an army to help the Yin Iron Cavalry occupy Naili, and before the arrival of the Wind Eagle Iron Cavalry, the 30,000 troops of the Yin State were devastated in the Storm Valley, and the entire army was almost wiped out.
In the end, the soldiers successfully broke through the Storm Valley with the help of the Wind Eagle Iron Cavalry, and the army of Yinguo, Huaiquan and Shuyue drove in, and the two armies were under the resting city, and finally captured this ancient city that is known as a thousand years old.
The first person to break through the city gate was Chu Xuanzhao, the third prince of Dayin, when the three armies entered the city of rest, the city was burning in flames, the city gate was full of corpses, it was almost difficult to see the living Yanyu people, the women were crying at home with their children, and the bodies of the men were abandoned in the streets.
At the same time, the sky and the earth suddenly changed color, and dozens of sudden tornadoes descended on the palace, startling the soldiers in the city to stagnate, and even turned over and dismounted, clasped their hands together and prayed that the wrath of the gods and Buddhas would not befall them, but the great prince of Chu, who led his troops into the city of rest, saw what they did not see.
A certain golden figure fell from the high pavilion of the palace, making a heavy landing sound, it was a woman, when he led the soldiers into the palace, he found that the white as jade Queen Yan Fu was lying in a pool of blood, the phoenix robe on her body was still intact, but she had already died.
Chu Yingyang never thought that someone could die so beautifully, with a smile on her face and her eyes closed peacefully.
The soldiers looked at the blurred mass of flesh and blood on the ground, everyone was speechless in shock, Chu Ying slowly approached the corpse, and suddenly a sentence appeared on the white jade floor, which was a sentence written by the queen with all her might before dying.
"When will the world be peaceful?"
The phrase didn't make much sense, but she wrote it anyway.
After the end of the war.
Almost all the soldiers of Yanfu died in battle, those surviving women and children became the playthings of the soldiers after the war, the news of the victory of the war was like a bird quickly spread to Lin'an City, Yinguo, and to the hands of His Majesty the Emperor, he personally announced the end of the war with Yanfu, the people of Lin'an were happy as if the New Year, and the firecrackers were set off in the city for many days one after another, and the lanterns were good
Like the New Year.
The six major forces of the Northern Regions, the Northern Barbarians, the West Lin, the Golden Horde, the Yin State, the Bottle State, and the Yan Dynasty, among which the Northern Barbarians were destroyed by the Golden Horde, and then the West and Yan Fu were annexed by the Yin State, and the remaining three countries were allies with each other, the war continued to burn, and the situation of the Great Yin Dynasty unifying the Northern Regions began to take shape, and the future of the world was still unknown.
When Chu Xianzhao opened his eyes and found himself lying in a river, he slowly sat up and looked up at everything on the clouds.
The brilliant Milky Way runs through the entire night sky, the snow-white waves wash the beach repeatedly, when he raised his head to look at the sky, a bright sun was burning, and the huge white moon was slowly rising from the horizon, and the black crows flew over the sea, the voice was high-pitched and sharp, they all looked at Chu Xianzhao, and their eyes were full of something called horror.
When Chu Xianzhao looked at the crows, the crows let out a sharp cry and flew away in all directions, leaving a few black feathers to fall on the sea.
"What's going on?" Chu Xianzhao looked at everything in front of him suspiciously.
"You're awake, Chu Xuanzhao" The woman's voice came from behind him.
"Am I dreaming?" Chu Xuanzhao turned to look at her, the black-haired woman sat on the rock with her legs crossed, "Who knows, maybe it is, maybe not." The woman looked at the horizon in the distance, and at this moment, the sea breeze blew through her long hair, and her black hair fluttered like silk in the wind, and Chu Xianzhao smelled a familiar fragrance of hair.
"I guess I'm dreaming, because I don't remember how I got here. Chu Xianzhao hesitated.
"Who are you? Aren't you going to explain it to me? ”
"That's not important, now we have more important things to talk about. The woman squinted at him, her pupils were as black as ink, and Chu Xianzhao couldn't feel the mood fluctuations in her eyes, not even the gaze.
"First of all, I'm glad you survived. ”
"Hmm. Chu Xianzhao looked at her thoughtfully, trying to recall everything that had happened before, and after a long time, he exhaled a breath, and his voice trembled: "I killed Yan Ying's queen and sat on their throne." ”
"It's a great move, now Yan Fu's Golden Chrysanthemum Banner has been thrown out of the city, and it has been replaced by the White Eagle Banner of your Yin Kingdom. The woman explained to him, and Chu Xianzhao nodded and wondered, "Who are you?"
"Guess who I am? you know. The woman stood up, and walked towards Chu Xianzhao on her tiptoes.
Every time Chu Xianzhao rubbed his eyes, the woman's face became clearer.
Until their foreheads finally came together, the strange fragrance of his body permeated the tip of his nose, and he always felt drowsy whenever he breathed.
The woman in front of her seemed to have seen her somewhere, but she couldn't remember her name, maybe she didn't know her at all
Didn't leave a name in his own life.
But this woman was born extremely good-looking, even better than the beauty of the world who died in her hands, this beauty does not seem to belong to the world, only in the sky can be glimpsed, if such a woman is born in the world, if she is not a princess, she must be a queen.
"So you don't know......" The woman's eyes darkened, and the disappointment in her tone could not be hidden.
She pressed against Chu Xianzhao's forehead, stared at his clean and clear purple pupils, and said in a soft voice: "I've been waiting for you for a long, long time, so long that I even forgot my name, although you and him are not the same person, but your destiny is the same, and you have the same smell as him." ”
"Who are you and why are you in my dreams, tell me the answer. Chu Xianzhao was silent for a while and asked the most critical question.
"I forgot my name, in short, I won't harm you, after so many years, I finally met a person who can hold the Tai'a sword, but the reason why I can wake up, thanks to the Donghuang Zhong took away part of the abundant natural breath in the sword body, I can open up this world for us to talk, otherwise I don't know how many years I have to sleep." ”
Chu Xianzhao's eyes were terrified: "I only know, you are the soul in the Tai'a Sword!!"
"Spirit?" the woman blinked, stretched out a spring onion jade and pointed in the direction of the sea: "Are you talking about him?"
Chu Xianzhao's mouth was big enough to stuff an egg, he trembled all over, there was a huge copper pillar standing on the sea level, twisted flesh and blood clinging to the copper pillar, blood-red veins and nerves gradually appeared in front of Chu Xianzhao's eyes, flesh and blood were like a human form, that was the most disgusting thing Chu Xianzhao had ever seen, it had the outline of a woman, blue eyes grew on her abdomen and shoulders, the open bloody mouth let out a terrifying roar, the fangs gradually formed in its mouth, and long black hair gradually grew on the top of the head, and a huge ........ Golden eyeballs appeared on its face.
"Tai'a sword, can kill the gods, can destroy the gate of heaven!" the woman said this proverb slowly.
"But I couldn't kill the soul sealed inside, so I had to seal it so that it wouldn't disturb our conversation. Chu Xuanzhao's face suddenly gloomy when he heard this, and he looked at the woman with deep fear: "You sealed the soul in the Tai'a Sword, who are you?"
"Listen to me, the door has been opened by you. The woman took a step back with her hands behind her back: "There is no turning back in this world." ”
"I don't know what you're talking about?" Chu Xianzhao pinched his face desperately, but he couldn't wake up anyway.
"You will not be able to escape for long, they will soon find you, and then you will experience something more terrible than death, as their mercy to you. The woman said as she leaned over her shoulder.
"Escape, why should I escape, it was I who led the army to win the battle against Yan Fu, and the real king will not run away. Chu instantly summoned the right color dao.
"You really don't want to run away?"
The woman smiled and motioned him to look behind him, Chu Xianzhao turned his head to look, the dark door seemed to open suddenly, he was surrounded by silent darkness, all the light and shadow left him, only the roar of wild bees sounded in his ears repeatedly.
"He's finally here!Hahahahaha, hey, hey, hey......"
He stood in the darkness, and the shadows surrounded him with voices, voices that carried a little joy, a little awe, and a little unease.
"Who are you?" Chu asked in a hoarse voice, he looked at those dark shadows and laughed for himself, holding hands.
"You know who we are...... Do you know who we are......" The shadows said the same thing repeatedly, and Chu Xianzhao subconsciously caught a glimpse of Su Changqing's appearance from the shadow's face, the dead Empress Yan Fu and the emperor, and countless people who died under his sword that he couldn't recognize.
"The land of your presence is radiant!"
"Run, run!" The shadows revolving around him suddenly became frightened, and the crimson light came from behind him to disperse all those shadows, he slowly turned around and looked at the black-haired woman holding a red giant sword in her hand, kneeling on one knee, the woman was slender, and her head was just right to meet Chu Xianzhao's eyes.
"Chu Xianzhao, you have accepted the mission given to you by the King of Xilin, your future road will be very difficult, and many people around you will leave you, but I want you to do a task that has not been completed by the Great Qin Shi Huang a thousand years ago, is it okay?"
Chu Xianzhao nodded.
The black-haired woman narrowed her extremely good-looking eyes and looked at him, the sea breeze blew her beautiful green silk, this scene looked very solemn, the woman who knelt on one knee and held the giant sword in her hand looked radiant in front of Chu Xianzhao, and there seemed to be a sea of stars in those eyes.
"So, the time begins, follow me on-"
"May the sky give you space to spread your wings, may the sea contain your deep heart, may the earth erect your monument for you, may the gods and Buddhas give you the kiss of courage, may the demons fear your majesty, and may mankind worship you as kings. The woman's voice echoed in his head like a bell.
May the sky give you space to spread your wings, may the sea contain your deep heart, may the earth erect your monument for you, may the gods and Buddhas give you the kiss of courage, may the demons fear your majesty, and may mankind worship you as king. Chu Xianzhao followed along.
"Thy eyes shall see the beauty of the king, and the vastness of the land. ”
"With the power of heaven and earth, in the name of light and shadow, we respect you as the Lord!"
"Thy eyes shall see the beauty of the king, and the vastness of the land. Along with the thousands of shadows that had disappeared, they also followed the woman silently
"With the power of heaven and earth, in the name of light and shadow, we respect you as the Lord!"
Chu Xianzhao took the Tai'a sword and plunged the blade of the sword into the ground, and a burst of light and flame rippled out from the blade, gradually converging into a violent wind rippling away on the beach, and those strange shadows disappeared together.
When Chu Xianzhao really woke up, he found himself lying on a warm bed, surrounded by golden curtains slowly hanging down, and the room was filled with a strong smell of medicine, he tried his best to open his eyelids to observe the direction of the light, and found that the light in the room made him feel like he was in a dream, and there was a feeling of being out of the dust.
Chu Xianzhao exhaled a breath of turbidity and sat on the edge of the bed, only to know that the woman in the dream said a few words to him, which were as deep as an imprint in his head.
"I just want to prove to you that the king of Xilin was not crazy back then, and that the revelation he received was actually given to him by me, but I didn't expect such terrible consequences. ”
"Since you have inherited his mission and the right to use the Tai'a Sword, then you have to complete this mission for him, my soul is entangled with the Tai'a Sword, and my body is sealed in the Great Qin Emperor's Mausoleum in Qingguo, I want you to sign a three-year contract with me, take me to Qingguo to take away my body within three years, and then even if the gods and Buddhas open the gate of heaven, they can't suppress my soul. ”
"Your war was deliberately caused by someone, I can't explain it to you very clearly, the end result must be the return of the enemy from the Far North with their master, many people have forgotten the truth of this history, like the king of the West and you, some people have felt the so-called revelation one after another, and believe that they are the people chosen by the gods and Buddhas, and they will finally one day wake them up and bring them to the battlefield of mankind, whoever those people are, find him and stop them. ”
"Before you take me to the Great Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, be careful of your father, don't let him take advantage of you, what he is doing is dragging this world into the abyss. ”
"When you want to find me, remember to say, let there be light," the woman's voice came from the darkness.
Chu Xianzhao stared at the gauze curtain and slowly became distracted.
It's like a world away.
