107: Annihilation
From the first step out of the gate of the Palace of Heart Cultivation, the expression on the face of Yan Chongyan became like the legendary black-faced Bao Gong, which was even darker than the bottom of the pot.
He didn't say hello to Zeng Guogong and Lian Chenghuo, the two fathers and sons, and walked out of the palace and got into his luxurious carriage. At the sound of an order, the carriage was not heading in the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but galloping towards the northwest corner of Bai Yujing.
The carriage walked through several streets. Suddenly, a figure slid out of the shadow of the street corner. This figure is faint, hazy, if there is nothing, even though it is broad daylight at the moment, but the surroundings of this person's body seem to be shrouded in a layer of black fog all the time. No matter how hard I tried to keep my eyes open, I couldn't imagine that I could see his appearance clearly.
The shadow glided close to the ground. The speed didn't seem to be fast, but the carriage couldn't outrun the black shadow, and in the blink of an eye, it had been caught up by the black shadow. I saw this black shadow suddenly jump in, and sneak in through the window of the carriage.
You need to know that the car window is narrow, at most two feet square, and an adult with an average physique may not be able to squeeze in. What's more, the carriage is galloping, and it is even more difficult to jump into the window with unerring accuracy. Therefore, just looking at the light body kung fu of Black Shadow, you know that he is at least a first-class master.
In the carriage, Old Xiangye Yan looked gloomy, playing with a beeswax bracelet, and he didn't know what he was pondering. Suddenly, I felt a slight breeze, and when I looked up, I saw that there was already a black shadow in the carriage.
At first glance, this black shadow looks like a soul seeking life, a ghost in the shadows. If you are a little less courageous, you can easily be frightened to the point of incompleteness. But Old Xiangye Yan knows the other party well, plus he has been in the sea for decades, what kind of big wind and waves have he never seen? He just glanced at the black shadow indifferently, and snorted coldly: "In front of this appearance, do you have to pretend to be a ghost like this, Jiuyou." ”
The black shadow let out a high-pitched laugh and waved it lightly. The black mist that enveloped his body immediately dissipated, revealing a pale and thin face, which was none other than Changshan Nine Shadow Divine Monarch.
"Xiangye, please forgive me. In the next it was habitual. The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch apologized. Then he hurriedly asked: "Xiangye, how is it? After learning the news that the little thief surnamed Cheng actually hooked up with Princess Yongjia, was the emperor very angry? Did he issue an order to immediately behead the little thief surnamed Cheng?"
Old Xiangye Yan snorted coldly: "What do you want to do?" The thief surnamed Cheng is in full swing, and Zhuge Lao'er and Song Guogong support him. How could something happen?"
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch was stunned and said, "Then is it just that?"
Old Prime Minister Yan said in a deep voice: "The Holy Decree is that after seven days, let the thief surnamed Cheng and Lianchenghuo compete in front of the Taiji Palace. The winner will be awarded the position of Habayashi Nakarou. But regardless of victory or defeat, the past is written off. ”
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch gasped: "The martial arts competition in front of the emperor seems to be fair, but in fact, the thief surnamed Cheng is partial to the family." The emperor was so fond of the thief. This...... It's really unexpected. But Xiangye, in this way, Xiangye's blood feud can't be avenged?"
Old Xiangye Yan's face was gloomy and he said, "Nine shades." When you say this, are you optimistic about the city?"
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch shook his head again and again and said: "Lianchenghuo is the head of the three families of Kongtong, Emei, and Kunlun in one body, and in the end, he can create his own style, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a genius." But I'm not afraid of not knowing the goods, and I'm most afraid of comparing goods. In front of Cheng Li, Lianchenghuo's little thing is not enough to see at all. ”
Old Xiangye Yan said in a condensed voice: "What if you go all out?"
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch shook his head and said, "Even if I go all out, I probably only have a fifty percent chance. ”
Old Master Yan said slowly: "So...... If another cultivator is close to you, or even stronger than you, he will cooperate with you with all his might. Can you kill Cheng Li with two against one?"
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch was stunned for a moment, and said with his jaw headed: "In this case, you should be able to get nine out of ten." What's the matter, can Xiang Ye say that the little marquis can make a move?"
Old Xiangye Yan snorted coldly: "Hmph, that kid surnamed Fang is just as hateful as Cheng Xiaothief. The old man urged him three or four times, and he promised well verbally, but after turning his head, he didn't know what he was doing. Coming and going, always making the old man wait and wait. Phew, it's all an excuse for prevarication. That's it, the old man doesn't count on him anymore. Without Zhang Butcher, would he have to eat hairy pigs? The old man didn't believe in this evil. ”
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch frowned and said, "Don't expect Little Marquis Fang to make a move...... So where can Xiangye go and find a master with a cultivation similar to mine?"
Old Xiangye Yan raised his head, took a deep look in the northwest direction, and spit out two words: "Annihilation!"
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch was taken aback and blurted out, "Annihilation......?" Is that man still alive?"
Old Xiangye Yan sneered: "Good people don't live long, and disasters live for thousands of years." This is the norm in the world. Jiuyou, you should understand this truth very well. So what's so strange about that person still alive?"
The Nine Shadows Divine Monarch quickly regained his composure and said in a deep voice: "Xiangye is right. If there is that person to help, if you want to kill the thief, you will be completely sure. So, where is that person now?"
Old Xiangye Yan lightly spit out three more words: "I don't see the sky." ”
These three words came into his ears, and even murderers like the Nine Shadows God Monarch couldn't help but tremble all over their bodies for a while, and there was even a faint hint of fear between their eyebrows. So what is this place that does not see the sky?
In fact, strictly speaking, not seeing the sky is just an abbreviation. The full name should be: Invisible Prison. It's a prison. Moreover, it is the most heavily guarded, terrifying, and terrifying prison in the world. As the name suggests, once someone is imprisoned in this prison, then in this life, they will never be able to see the light of day again.
Why did you build such a big prison? Because at the beginning of the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, the world was still in chaos and there were countless villains. Among them, there are many people who have advanced cultivation. But for various reasons, it can't be simply killed. Therefore, they can only be imprisoned.
But ordinary prisons can only imprison ordinary children, and for those first-class masters, or even top masters, these ordinary prisons are equivalent to inns and inns, and they can enter and enter freely. Therefore, it was necessary to build a special prison to "entertain" those masters.
With the help of a high-ranking person. The Criminal Department built a large number of buildings in the northwest corner of Bai Yujing, digging the ground and opening rocks, and went deep into the ground for hundreds of zhang. Constitute a cellar prison with no entry or exit. The entire prison is divided into eighteen floors. All kinds of torture instruments from ancient and modern China and abroad are also collected in it, which can be described as a grand view. Therefore, if there is a hell on earth, then there is no doubt that hell is not visible.
The founding of the Great Wei Dynasty was nearly a mile, and the war had long been far away. The masters who dare to stir up trouble are almost gone. However, the struggle in the imperial court and temple, its cruelty, is by no means inferior to the fight of real swords and guns on the rivers and lakes.
Old Xiangye Yan has been able to go all the way to today, and he doesn't know how many opponents he has attacked, and how many people who dare to be enemies of him have been directly ruined. And many of the losers of these political struggles end up in the absence of the sky. Even after death, the soul still can't leave, and can only linger day and night, in the sky. In such a place, it is no wonder that even the Nine Shadows God Monarch is famous for changing color.
