Chapter 261: Blood Sacrifice I
As soon as she thought of yesterday's events, her slightly pale face turned into an abnormal flush. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but it made her add a little bit of the shyness and charm of a child.
She stretched out her hand and shook Granny Long's hand, "It's been hard for Granny Long these days. ”
"The old body is not hard, it is His Highness who is hard."
Granny Long patted Qingqing's little hand with pity, and it turned out that the fleshy little hand had become much more slender.
"Mother-in-law, do you think he will come to see me today?"
Granny Long was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she was talking about Li Chen. remembered that Li Chen said when he left yesterday that he would come to see her this morning, and he couldn't help but want to nod. Suddenly, she felt something, and when she looked up at the sky, a pair of eyebrows were twisted together.
Sensing the change in Granny Long's mood, Qingqing took her hand a little nervously, and her face was a little pale: "Could it be that my father didn't allow him to come to see me?" ”
The voice was a little sad and helpless. Granny Long hurriedly shook her head, Her Royal Highness had just recovered from a serious illness, and her meridians were still very fragile, and her emotions really couldn't go up and down.
"Your Majesty doesn't know about this yet, but he may not be able to come today. The old body sensed his figure just now, and he had already flown in the northwest direction. ”
"Hmph, what's so important!"
Qingqing rolled her big smart eyes, and her face was dissatisfied. Granny Long couldn't help but sigh in her heart, Your Highness is clearly the appearance of deep-rooted love, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future.
Qingqing is not suitable to get up and move now, Granny Long gently comforted her a few words, and then found a chance to walk out of the room. He made a very covert gesture to the guards on duty outside, and then walked to the side room.
Soon Ning Zhiyuan's figure appeared strangely from the air, his face was always cold and solemn, but those who are familiar with it will find that during this time, he has obviously lost a lot of weight, and even a trace of silver has appeared on his sideburns.
"Your Highness is awake."
Granny Long glanced at him and said in a deep voice. Ning Zhiyuan looked stunned for a moment, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his cold and hard face. No one knew that when he went to Qingyuan County, one of the secret orders was to protect His Royal Highness Qingqing. Who knew that then His Highness was hit hard under his nose.
Although His Majesty's punishment has not yet come down, he is still worried. He used to be His Majesty's personal guard, so he naturally knew His Majesty's habits, this is not to let him go, on the contrary, this is very likely to be the calm before the storm, because His Majesty Qingqing's affairs cannot be made public for the time being, so it is not easy to deal with him for a while.
This is a great depravity to the children and grandchildren!
This incident made him a lot older directly, but he didn't expect His Royal Highness Qingqing to wake up miraculously, this is simply a thousand joys! As long as His Highness can be safe and sound, even if His Majesty is angry and wants to hold himself accountable, he will never harm his family. Because of this, he even had a good impression of Li Chen.
"It's just that His Highness is not in stable condition now, but he went there."
"Where?"
Ning Zhiyuan subconsciously asked, and then his face changed greatly.
"How could he have gone all of a sudden?"
"I don't know, but he can't have an accident right now."
Granny Long said in a deep voice. Ning Zhiyuan's face changed a few times, paced lightly in the room for a few steps, and raised his head in an instant, as if he had made up his mind.
"I'll go and see, those people went there, I'm worried that there will be some big moves there, so I'll leave it to you first."
Granny Long nodded. Ning Zhiyuan's body disappeared into the room strangely. Granny Long couldn't help but sigh and looked in the direction of Juyan County. In a barely audible voice, he muttered, "Hopefully, it's still too late." ”
When they flew to the boundary of Juyan County, the two of them found a hidden place and lowered their figures. Cautiously turned around a few times, and then divided the troops into two ways, Bai Zhi directly marched towards Juyan County in the bright place, while Li Chen directly launched the Earth Escape Technique and followed closely underground.
On the surface, there seems to be nothing abnormal in Juyan County, the people are still living normally, and the streets are full of people, which is very lively. Along the way, the two even found a few camps where small groups of troops were stationed in a few relatively hidden places. It should be the news point that Yunhou laid here, and now the entire Taishan County is covered with imperial army troops, although Juyan County is far away from Hongchen Purgatory, but Yunhou, who has fought all his life, still laid a defense here.
But the closer he got to the scene of the boulder, the more uneasy Li Chen's heart became, and even a feeling of extreme danger rose. He faintly felt that the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi of the entire Juyan County was a little unusual. For this reason, he also deliberately showed his figure and flew into the air to observe it, but he couldn't see any clues. Ask Bai Zhi, even Bai Zhi didn't find any problems, which made his heart sink even more.
This is not to say that there is no problem, but on the contrary, it is likely that the problem is more serious than you think. When it was less than a hundred miles away from the county seat of Juyan, Bai Zhi also began to feel it, although she couldn't see any clues, but the aura of this land was obviously a little strange.
In fact, Li Chen's feeling was even more obvious, and he suddenly found that he had no way to mobilize the power of the earth. In some places, you can't even feel the power of the earth, and this phenomenon is really weird. He didn't dare to rush forward blindly, and the two of them, one on the ground and the other underground, seemed to unintentionally probe a few laps. Then, the faces of the two became even more ugly.
Although the whole Juyan County looks very normal, there is obviously a faint layer of thin clouds in the air, the clouds are very thin, but the pressure is very low, and there is a heavy feeling with people. Ordinary people on the street looked a little sluggish, and many families were reluctant to go out and hang out.
At this time, Li Chen finally discovered a clue, he found that the power of the earth in this land was not gone, but was taken away in some way!
These forces of the earth are like people suddenly gathered in a ditch, and these forces of the earth have formed an extremely repeated pattern directly under the earth, and they are running along some extremely mysterious route, like a thousand streams returning to a river.
"Formation!"
His heart shook wildly, who was such a big hand to directly lay down such a cumbersome array under the earth. This kind of formation is not the same as the formation encountered in Qingyuan County at the beginning. Although the formation of Qingyuan County looked very terrifying, there was always a rule to follow, and it only blocked the county seat.
This formation is different, it is almost all over the underground in the entire territory of Juyan County, if Qingyuan County is a giant, then the lines of this formation are like blood vessels, extremely complicated. The difficulty of this formation arrangement is much more difficult than the original formation in Qingyuan County, it not only needs to build countless formation eyes under the entire Juyan County, but also needs to maintain its operation with some kind of energy, this kind of workload, let alone secretly, even if it is to launch a large army, it can definitely not be completed in the morning and overnight.
