Chapter 22: Foggy Hidden Island
When Xuan Shao woke up, it happened that Xuan Yue had just returned from the palace. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Brother! Are you awake? That's great! Xuan Yue threw herself into Xuan Shao's arms, and saw that her voice was a little choked.
"Silly girl, I'm awake here, what are you crying about." Xuan Shao comforted his sister, and when he saw that she was wearing palace clothes, he asked, "Are you coming back from the palace?" ”
"yes." Xuan Yue nodded, her eyebrows twisted slightly.
Seeing his sister's worried look, Xuan Shao guessed that something must have happened, "Is something wrong?" ”
"In the past few days that you have been unconscious, extremely terrifying and bizarre things have happened." Xuan Yue's expression was solemn, "Three days ago, a monster appeared in that fishing village called Brie on the western coast. ”
"Monsters?" Xuan Shao said curiously.
"Yes, it can only be described as a 'monster' at the moment, except for a teenager named Alvin, all the other villagers are dead. According to Alvin's description, the monster rode a black-brown blue-eyed unicorn, tall and burly, covered in armor, and his appearance was unrecognizable, and only two red rays of red light could be seen through the armor of the head. What's even more strange is that he is obviously riding a horse, but when the horse's hooves land and run, there is no sound, and the silence is very strange. Xuan Yue described what he heard in the palace during the day to Xuan Shao, and when he thought about it again, he was still very frightened, "When this monster approached the village, no one found it, until he rushed to the eyes of the villagers, and the moment the villagers saw this 'monster', their hearts were immediately enveloped in deep fear, and they couldn't move for half a minute, and it didn't take long for them to start their faces twisted, kneel and scream, and then die." ”
"How could this Alvin be alive?"
"That's right, this Alvin is the only survivor in the fishing village, and we suspect that he is the monster's deliberate living mouth in order to serve as a witness and bring greater fear to Hee-so, or rather, it is a 'provocation' by the monster, and the monster left a message when he left, 'Tell Hee-so's people that this is just the beginning, and we will meet again soon.'" After that, it disappeared into the sea. ”
"Disappeared at sea, you say?"
"Yes, according to Alvin, the 'monster' rode the weird unicorn on the waves towards the center of the sea, and soon disappeared into the mist, and then Alvin fainted." Xuan Yue sighed, "Although he survived, he was also stimulated a lot, he almost covered his head and trembled while describing what happened to us, and after he finished speaking, he curled up on the ground and kept shouting: 'He will come back, he will kill us all!'" ’”
"Unicorns... Armour... Overseas..."Xuan Shao frowned and thought for a moment, "Could it be ......?"
Xuan Yue nodded, "Your Majesty also has this speculation today, but the Fog Hidden Island has never existed in legends, and has never appeared on the mainland, everything is not yet known, Your Majesty has strengthened the defense of ports and urban villages along the coast, and has also set up several temporary shelters in Shangling City for those villagers who have fled from the villages near Buri Village to live temporarily." ”
Xuan Shao didn't expect that during the time he was in a coma, such a big thing would happen to Xizhao. About Wuyin Island, the entire Xizhao and even all the countries on the mainland have very little information about it, any information about this island only exists in some historical records a hundred years ago, according to legend, this island is not inhabited by humans, but some undead, as for the authenticity of these legends can not be verified at all, there are also people who have tried to find this island, but either to no avail, or simply never returned, and then people will faintly forget about this Wuyin Island.
Now that it has reappeared in front of the world, the words left by that monster are like a cursed prophecy, if it is really Fog Hidden Island, what is their purpose......
"Brother, I'll go and heat the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor for you, and cook some hot porridge, although you are awake, you still have to recuperate for a while."
Xuan Shao's thoughts were interrupted by Xuan Yue, and when Xuan Yue was about to get up and leave his room, he was stopped by Xuan Shao: "By the way, when you came back from Chihu Island, did anything happen, or...... Do you see anyone else? Xuan Shao had a headache and asked for the news from Mu Yunmo's side.
How could Xuan Yue not see the intention of his brother's words, just thinking that his brother almost died for the demon girl, and now that he woke up, he still couldn't let her go, and suddenly became angry, and said a little meanly: "Who else? You didn't know whether you were alive or dead at that time, what did it matter to me whether others were dead or alive! With that, Xuan Yue pushed the door a little angrily and walked out.
Xuan Shao was even more worried now, it stands to reason that Mu Yan should bring Mu Yunmo back safely, but Xuan Yue's attitude is ...... Could it be that they met later? Or something else?
It's okay not to ask now, Xuan Shao at this moment is so anxious that he can't go out immediately to ask Mu Yunmo about the situation. didn't have time to think about it, so he decided to go to Cangxuan Pavilion to find out the situation, and when he was about to get out of bed, Xuan Yue walked in with a medicine bowl, and when he saw his posture, he didn't have to guess to know where he was going.
"Drink the medicine." Xuan Yue looked at Xuan Shao, and her tone was as irresistible as an order.
In the face of his sister, Xuan Shao has never had a temper, but he was anxious about the situation on Yunmo's side, and he took the medicine and was about to pour it into his mouth without even waiting for it to cool down.
"Hey, hey!" Xuan Yue stopped the medicine bowl and took it in his hand, "Okay, okay, I really can't help you, that person is fine, nothing at all, I saw her in Cangxuan Pavilion a few days ago." ”
"Really?!" Xuan Shao's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Xuan Yue glanced at him and gently blew the steaming decoction in the bowl, "Naturally it's true, now you can drink the medicine with peace of mind?" ”
Xuan Shao was relieved, and took the medicine with a smile, "Thank you, girl." ”
In the palace of the Seven Temples City, He Dihui sat on the throne of the warm pavilion of his dormitory, his face and eyes slightly closed, and a turquoise flame danced slightly on his palm. Qi Ling, who was sitting on the side, didn't speak, but just looked at the flame with deep meaning. He Dihui has been trying to study necromancy recently, in order to live forever, so many important matters of the government and the opposition are all handed over to Qi Ling to deal with.
Xiahou Yi begged to see He Dixie, waited for a while, the palace people led him into the warm pavilion, he saw that He Dihui was still standing next to Qi Ling, he didn't feel strange at all, now almost all political affairs are in Qi Ling's hands, and it is not strange that he can enter and leave He Dixie's dormitory at any time.
After the big salute, Xiahou Xi spoke: "Your Majesty, according to the report from the spies on Xizhao's side, the 'monster' who attacked the fishing village to the west of them is likely to be from Wuyin Island, Xizhao has nothing to do with Wuyin Island, and now that Wuyin Island is attacking, I don't know if it is aimed at Xizhao or all our land countries, do we need to take precautions against this?" ”
He Diyu still had his eyes closed, and he didn't mean to speak, and Qi Ling next to him said: "If the Fog Hidden Island wants to make any moves against our land country, Xizhao is the only way for them, so we still do a good job of daily defense, pay attention to the situation on Xizhao's side, and wait and see what happens." ”
He Di opened his mouth lazily: "Well, leave these things to Zuo Xiang, I'm tired, Xiahou Xi, you can step down." ”
Xiahou Yi couldn't help but be annoyed when he saw He Dihui like this, I don't know when it started, this emperor became more and more industrious in political affairs, Qi Ling is now alone in the court, and no one can compete with him at all, so if it goes on, won't this red dome country become his Qi Ling? Thinking like this, he couldn't say anything, just glanced at Qi Ling, and said knowingly: "The subordinates understand, and the subordinates retreat." ”
After Xiahou Xi left, the ghost fire in He Dixi's hand lit up again.
"Your Majesty, then I will also retire." Qi Ling immediately got up and left, and when he walked to the door of the Warm Pavilion, he turned his head and secretly glanced at the flame in He Dihui's hand, and the corners of his mouth formed an imperceptible arc, "He Dihui, since you are still obedient, then I will let you live for a while longer." ”
