Chapter 8
Not only Aunt Li and Wu Xiaohua's mother and daughter, but there were also other domestic servants in the Qianfu who went out and never returned. The old housekeeper had a headache, and everyone couldn't help but be anxious.
However, Qiangu had already issued an order, a ban on going out absolutely did not allow anyone to step out of the door for half a step, who would dare not listen to the order of the second young master.
The tall and mighty guards stood all over the Qianfu with cold faces, some guarding the door, and some patrolling the courtyard. They forcibly suppressed the anxiety in their hearts and dutifully completed their tasks.
Even if this is the case in Qianfu, the situation of the rest of the mansions in Yunxiang City is not easier than that of Qianfu. In any case, as long as you stay in the Qianfu, you can still ensure safety at present. Once you step out of Qianfu, the danger of a qiē becomes unknown.
Qiangu sent a summons order from a distance, passing the news to his eldest brother. The content of the message is simple and clear: The disaster of knowledge has come, and it is a quick return.
At this moment, Qiangu was depressed in his heart, more than a little bit depressed. It was enough to know that there was a trouble called the Scourge of Wisdom that came uninvited, and it was enough to worry about the headache, and this trouble actually came early without saying a word.
The results of the calculations of the Six Realms Divination Wizards are simply a trick. The three cities they checked directly hit Yunxiang City, not to mention, the time range they calculated was inaccurate to the extreme!
Trying his best to suppress the entanglement in his heart, Qiangu took a deep breath and tried to maintain a calm expression. Qian Gu can still maintain a superficial calm, if he lets Qian Yu know which bastard in the Six Realms is tossed by the disaster of intellect, Qian Gu firmly believes that the eldest brother has to beat the other party so that his father and mother can't recognize it.
The mysterious son, like the eldest young master of the Qianjia family, seems to be immobile in the eight winds, but in fact has a beating fanatical heart. Who dares to provoke in front of Qianyu, he is properly tired!
It was getting dark, and the streets were nowhere near as lively as usual. The number of people who are going crazy has skyrocketed, and it seems like there is no end to it. Except for a small number of people who are seriously ill, more people feel dizzy and think very slowly.
The people who were a little able to control their feelings hurriedly went home and closed their doors, and had no intention of staying on the street to watch the excitement.
The officers and soldiers poured out of their nests and quickly blocked the streets. Zhou Hao, the prince of Hao, personally led the troops, and the officials of Yunxiang City followed behind the prince. Zhou Hao is seven years old in Chinese New Year's Eve, wearing a blue python robe to show his nobility, he rode a high-headed horse, staring at the current situation of Yunxiang City, not angry and arrogant.
Qian Gu and the sloppy old man did not come forward to meet Zhou Hao, they chose to avoid the officers and soldiers from a distance.
The big and small things in the secular world, the part that should be under the jurisdiction of the imperial court will naturally be handed over to the imperial court to deal with. The rest of the court's ability is to be taken care of by them.
As long as Zhou Hao stabilizes the people of the city and does not mess up, it is enough for Qiangu.
Also thinking the same as Qiangu is Yun Yichang.
Yunyi often ordered all the Taoist priests of Yunxiangguan to stay in the temple and not go out at will, in case a catastrophe comes. After a few simple explanations, Yun Yichang's figure flickered and disappeared from the sight of all Taoist priests.
The flowing robe moved with the wind, and Yun Yi often held the dust in his hand, and his expression was extremely cold. With the remaining four years in charge, he understands that Yunxiang City is unstable, and it is not easy for him to get through this period smoothly. Perhaps this is his fate, destined for disaster in the mundane world.
Yun Xiangcheng was a palm-sized place for Yun Yichang at best, and he had already walked in front of Qiangu and the sloppy old man in an instant. Yun Yi often saluted Qiangu first, and then it was a certain Liuhua ancestor who came to Yunxiang City but did not enter Yunxiang Temple.
The little ancestor is ranked after the old ancestor, but the old ancestor has to be ranked after the second young master. There is no doubt about this order, and it is a difference in absolute strength.
The sloppy old man quietly observed Yun Yichang's eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. For more than 90 years, Yun Yichang's temperament has sunk, but unfortunately his cultivation has hardly changed. In the mundane world, such an outcome seems to be a matter of course.
Qiangu calmly glanced at Liuhua Ancestor, and then looked at the Yunxiang Guan Master who had just arrived. This old and young is not a good choice for Qiangu, but it is the only choice in front of him.
A little monk who has cultivated reluctantly, and an old monk who has not yet entered the immortal realm, is quite inadequate to deal with the disaster of knowledge.
It's a pity that who let his eldest brother still jump outside and not go home. If this overlord comes back, he doesn't have to worry about these things now, he just needs to sit at home and read a book and drink tea.
Qiangu calmed down and said politely: "Liuhua Ancestor, Lord Yunguan, now the disaster of wisdom has come suddenly. The city is not well prepared, and it needs to be bothered to make a move. ”
"Second Young Master Qian, it's polite, guarding Yunxiang City should be like this." The sloppy old man and Yun Yichang have the same meaning. Each of the three had a heavy responsibility, and the two monks were responsible for controlling the spread of the disaster. Qiangu is a capable person who works harder, and he needs to find and deal with the source of the disaster.
The old man and Yun Yichang combined slightly, and then galloped away separately in two directions.
Qiangu stopped where he was, and before he could move, he closed his eyes and listened quietly to the sounds of the city, the wind, the people, and the sounds of disaster.
At night, the lights of Yunxiang City gradually turned on. The seemingly peaceful city is not calm, people's hearts are fluctuating, the number of people out of control is increasing, even if Prince Hao leads the troops to guard, it is only superficially controlling the actions of the people of the city, and the slightest bit cannot stop the crazy spread of the disaster.
The townspeople were terrified, and the fear hidden in the darkness continued to melt into the uneasy atmosphere. The officials were also very frightened, there was a mess in Yunxiang City, if the prince had three long and two short, the heads on their necks would have to be moved.
However, the officials could not persuade Prince Hao to return to his house no matter what, and the prince was on the front line, and they could not find any reason to retreat.
The officers and men carried lanterns in their hands, and as far as the eye could see, the streets were full of fire. Zhou Hao's expression was stern, and he was waiting patiently for the people sent to Qianfu and Yunxiangguan to bring back the news.
Soon, a personal soldier stepped forward to announce: "Lord Qiqi, the person sent to Qianfu and Yunxiangguan has just returned." Second Young Master Qian, and Lord Yunguan have both gone out and are not in the mansion. The second young master left a message, he has already started to deal with this matter, and the prince does not need to panic. ”
Nodding his head in response, Zhou Hao's heart suddenly calmed down a little. Previously, Qiangu had written a letter to him, asking him to prepare for it in the near future, and there was a fear of chaos in Yunxiang City.
Zhou Hao had dealt with the two of them, Second Young Master Qian, and Lord Yunguan, and knew that they were by no means ordinary people. Everyone guarded Yunxiang City together, and Zhou Hao was naturally a little in awe of them, but Zhou Hao never expected that the recent thing mentioned by Qiangu would come so quickly!
Not only Zhou Hao, but even Qian Gu himself never thought that things would change so exaggeratedly.
Qiangu stood in the air, a soft light slowly gathered beside him, and then turned into a human form. Dark armor, indifferent look, extraordinary appearance. There is a long sword at the waist of the hidden guard, the blade is extremely sharp, and killing demons and monsters is also like sharpening iron like clay.
The hidden guard knelt on one knee, and his indifferent voice did not show a trace of emotion: "Second Young Master, traces of the Night Blood Demon Lord have been found outside the city. ”
Hearing this, Qian Gu narrowed his eyes slightly. Night Blood Demon Lord, Luo Zhi, is the fifth son of the current Demon Venerable. What was Luo Zhi doing in Yunxiang City at this time? Could it be that the scourge of intellect is related to the demon realm?
"Who else is with him?" Dry advisor said.
The hidden guard immediately replied, "At present, I only see the Night Blood Demon Lord alone. ”
It is not known whether Luo Zhi has any other entourage, the Demon Lord has always had strange methods, and he alone is enough to give Qiangu a headache. Luo Zhi didn't come early or late, but he chose to go to Yunxiang City at this special moment, I am afraid that the person who came was not good.
After weighing it again and again, he ordered the hidden guard: "If he doesn't enter the city, don't pay attention." If he wants to enter the city, tell him that Yunxiang City is not entertaining guests now, and ask the Night Blood Demon Lord to rest outside the city. ”
After receiving the order, the hidden guard immediately turned into a soft light and dissipated into the night.
Five miles outside Yunxiang City, a slender figure stood in the void. A blood-red undershirt, a dark red robe, and a black tulle coat. The long black hair is scattered casually behind him, which is quite casual. Slender eyes, with a smile in the bottom of the eyes. The scarlet tongue licked the thin lips as if it had just tasted the deliciousness.
His appearance is very bewitching, but no one dares to step forward to kiss Fang Ze.
The Night Blood Demon Lord Luo Zhi exuded a terrifying aura all over his body, and he showed his powerful strength in every move, and his incomparably domineering strength above the bewitching one. So far, only this femme fatale eats people, and no one dares to overwhelm him.
Staring at the dead air hovering over Yunxiang City, Luo Zhi evoked an extraordinarily charming smile: "Should I say that I came at the wrong time, or should I say that I came too late." The disaster of intellect actually appeared at this time, and those fortune tellers were really unreliable. ”
His gaze slowly swept across the city, discerning the strength of friend and foe. A group of mortals, one old and one young, two monks, and finally, Qiangu and his hidden guards.
Luo Zhi smiled and shook his head, such a lineup was too cold. The little monk is not sharp enough to be a thug, so he has to become an immortal or something. Otherwise, these immortal cultivators are on par with the demon cultivators who can't achieve the climate.
As a dignified Night Blood Demon Lord, Luo Zhi is not only a demon, but also a demon with extraordinary status. Monks and the like were not enough to see in his eyes, and there was no need to look at them. The opponent of the Immortal Cultivator is the Demon Cultivator, and the opponent of the Night Blood Demon Lord should be an Immortal, or a Cultivator of the Profound Immortal.
Luo Zhi raised his hand and touched his chin, should he take this opportunity to brush his favorability in front of the second young master. In terms of appearance, Luo Zhi has confidence, and in terms of combat effectiveness, Luo Zhi is more confident.
It's just that the second young master may not accept his affection.
Glancing thoughtfully at the hidden guards hidden around, the smile on Luo Zhi's lips increased sharply, and he said calmly: "Tell Second Young Master Qian for me." As long as the second young master speaks, Luo is willing to share his worries for the second young master to defend the city. ”
After that, Luo Zhi threw out a sea of blood out of thin air, and his figure escaped, diving into the sea of blood to take a nap.
In the brightly lit Qianfu, the nurses are patrolling dutifully. At this time, everyone in the house was restless, they had no appetite for eating, and they couldn't sleep well.
Among them, there are also Xu Tianxuan who can't even sleep well and secretly climbs the wall.
Wu Dong was concerned about the safety of his mother and sister, and Xu Tianxuan was also worried about them, so in the end, the two of them bit their teeth and stomped their feet, and desperately found a medicine garden without a nursing home patrol. The two took advantage of the night to sneak into the medicine garden, and in an inconspicuous corner of the medicine garden, they began to implement the plan of climbing the wall.
Xu Tianxuan couldn't climb the wall, so Wu Dong had to bend down and carry Xu Tianxuan up to the wall. Then, Wu Dong jumped to the courtyard wall with three times and five divisions. He has been practicing kung fu for so long, and he has never guarded the Qianfu, but he climbed the wall of the Qianfu first.
Wu Dong thought about it and felt doubly guilty about Qianfu. When he was to find his family, Wu Dong would sincerely admit his mistake to the second young master.
Just when the two of them were looking for someone unexpectedly with apologies, the news of their departure from Qianfu also reached Qiangu's ears. The corners of Qiangu's mouth twitched slightly, looked at the hidden guard beside him, and asked lightly: "The wall of our Qianfu is so easy to climb?" ”
The ruthless black-clad guard chose silence to be golden.
Immediately, the topic was abandoned, and as Qiangu got closer and closer to the center of the aura, he felt more and more that this power was strange.
Xu Tianxuan and the others were not aware of the grim situation in the city, and they walked lightly through the alleys and went straight to the shop where Aunt Li and her daughter bought fabrics. Wu Dong's heart rose to his throat, and this honest and honest man looked anxious at the moment, for fear that his family would have any accidents.
Xu Tianxuan, who was on the same road as Wu Dong, suddenly felt a lot of pressure, and the atmosphere in the entire Yunxiang City was strangely smoking. Saying that it is quiet and quiet, everyone goes home early and closes the door, and if you want to say that it is noisy and noisy, those people don't know why they are crazy, laughing and making trouble.
The abnormal laughter looked extremely weird in the winter night, and Xu Tianxuan unconsciously shivered.
