Chapter 38: The Seven-Headed Serpent

Ji Buyun is the first time to participate in such a scene, no matter how young and old he is, after all, his experience and knowledge are limited, so he can't help but kick in his heart, on the other hand, Nan Wan'er is still calm, she stands there calmly, looking directly at the three messengers who are slowly walking up the stairs.

After Ao Zhiwu ascended the steps to the foyer, he waited sideways for the three messengers, and when they all arrived at the foyer, he first introduced the Lord and the Great Wizard to each other, and the two exchanged greetings.

As the master, Lord Nezhiyue first greeted: "Haotian God bless you, noble great wizard. ”

The Great Wizard returned the salute according to the etiquette of the Highlands: "Haotian God bless you, Lord Nezhiyue." ”

The two introduced the others on both sides respectively, after the great wizard introduced the two princesses Tuoba and Tuqi, Lord Ne Zhiyue first introduced Nan Wan'er, and he introduced to the great wizard: "This is Her Royal Highness Nan Wan'er, the ninth princess of the elf clan under the throne of Haotian God, and is now a guest at the honorable high priest, in order to show our sincerity, we specially invite Her Royal Highness the princess to participate in the ceremony to welcome your envoy into the city." ”

After Princess Nan Wan'er met with the Great Wizard and the two princesses separately, Lord Na Zhiyue then introduced Ji Buyun, and he said: "This is the prince of Ji Buyun of the Central Plains Empire, who is currently training in the Highlander Praetorian Guard, and several people must have heard that he is the partner chosen by Haotian God for our noble high priest of the Highlanders, and he is our own person." ”

In a sentence of his own person, he explained clearly and clearly why he introduced Nan Wan'er first and then Ji Buyun. Since it is his own person, of course, he must introduce Nan Wan'er as a guest first, which has nothing to do with identity and status.

After the two sides introduced the people present, Lord Nenokoshi was inviting the three envoys to visit the Senate on behalf of the five rulers, when the sky suddenly changed, and a gust of wind wrapped in a large black cloud came unexpectedly.

The changes in the wind and clouds exude an endless aura, mixed with a thick murderous aura.

Xi Tuxiao, who was accompanying the Lord Nezhiyue, called urgently to the bottom of the steps: "Array." ”

The Praetorian Guards armed with runic weapons opened twenty battle formations in front of the gate of the Senate's Court, and the golden protective shield was opened, protecting the patriarchs and tribal elders.

Ji Buyun stepped over, summoned the purple gold sword in his hand, and stopped in front of his uncle Buyun.

Nan Wan'er grabbed it and stood on the left side of Ji Buyun, there was a colorful light flowing on her little hand, and the center of her eyebrows seemed to open the eyes of the sky, shining with a faint purple-red light, faintly radiating light.

She reminded Ji Buyun in a low voice: "Little brother, worry-free shield." ”

Qian Qiqi turned out from there, he stood on the right side of Ji Buyun, holding a short sword in his hand, and his face was nervous.

He whispered to Ji Buyun: "Brother Ji be careful, it seems that he is a feathered powerhouse." ”

The wind and clouds kept changing in the sky above the Senate, conjuring the shadows of countless demons, and the black clouds became thicker and thicker, and the pressure became lower and lower, and the clouds opened, faintly revealing a seven-headed giant snake.

"Aiyanagi. Ji Buyun, Nan Wan'er, and Qi Qiqi said in unison, Ji Buyun first breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, there is a royal dragon pendant, these fierce beasts can't hurt him.

Several adults had surprised expressions on their faces, and Xituxiao hurriedly stepped forward to let them into the senate's courtyard, and at the same time commanded the patriarchs and tribal elders in the square to move to the senate's courtyard.

Nan Wan'er couldn't help but turn around and sarcastically mocked him, and said: "What are you commanding blindly, it's a feather powerhouse who is coming, and one move can destroy the entire Senate, do you let them all go in and send them to death together?"

Situ Xiao's face turned red, he was an ordinary person, and his instinctive reaction when he encountered danger was to hide in a safe place, he had seen the battle between mages in the priest's house, and knew that what the elf princess said was true.

The Grand Wizard of the Prairie and the two princesses were very calm, especially the eldest princess Tuoba, who stood there for a long time, the changes in front of her seemed to have nothing to do with her, and her attention was all focused on the window of the wine shop opposite, where there were ants.

The giant snake jumped out of the black clouds and landed on the Senate Square with a bang, and the ground of the marble square was suddenly smashed out of a deep pit, its huge purple-black body was entrenched there like a small mountain, and seven snakes the size of a small house had bright red crowns on their heads, and the seven giant mouths kept swallowing bright red snake letters, and the hissing sound was chilling.

The black clouds transformed into nine huge three-dimensional heads in the air, with ears, nose and eyes, and the nine mouths let out a piercing strange laugh together, and then said in unison: "Highlanders, do you like my gift?"

Ji Buyun waved his hand to signal the Praetorian Guards on the square to evacuate quickly, and the onlookers around the square had already dispersed at this time, and the few bold ones were also trembling and hiding in the house to spy out.

Qi Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, Xiangliu came as a servant of the seven-headed snake, and he didn't come in person." ”

Nan Wan'er recited the incantation, her little hand stretched forward, and a stream of colorful light flowed onto the golden protective shield of the Praetorian Guard's runic weapon battle array, and these protective shields were instantly connected together, forming a huge golden protective shield, enveloping the Senate in it.

The rune weapon battle array blessed by the mage's mana is doubled in power.

"Haha, runic weapons. The nine heads transformed by the black cloud shouted in mid-air together: "Haha, highlanders, runic weapons can't protect you for long, go." ”

As he went, the seven-headed monster snake raised its snake head and rushed towards the Senate, its huge body slamming into the golden shield, and with a loud bang, the shield rippled.

The Praetorian Guards in the protective shield only felt their bodies shake and their feet shook, but the protective shield was still intact, and they were all relieved.

Nan Wan'er shouted in a coquettish voice: "Praetorian Guard, listen to the command, lift." ”

She is an expert in runic weapons, and she is naturally the most effective in commanding at this time.

Forty Praetorian Guards armed with javelins and spears in the battle formation simultaneously prepared to throw javelins, and forty javelins shining with golden light appeared in their hands.

"Vote. ”

Forty runic javelins were thrown forward at the same time, and the javelins landed accurately on the seven-headed snake, blooming with a burst of dazzling light, accompanied by an earth-shattering explosion, the seven-headed monster snake jumped high in pain, slammed heavily on the protective shield, and a golden ripple rippled.

The nine heads that the black clouds transformed into kept shouting in mid-air: Go, go.

Nan Wan'er also kept shouting orders, and the Praetorian Guards kept throwing javelins at the seven-headed monster snake, and the snake rolled around in the square, ignoring the javelin attacks, and hit the protective shield again and again.

The marble square of the Senate was smashed into ruins by the huge body of the strange snake, and the rocks roared in all directions, some of which smashed on the stone chambers of nearby houses, and the houses collapsed in an instant.

Ji Buyun and Qi Qiqi couldn't help but be shocked when they noticed that dozens of hundreds of powerful rune javelins had failed to pierce the skin of the seven-headed monster snake.

If this continues, it will be difficult for the rune weapon battle array to block the impact of the strange snake.

The Grand Wizard of the Prairie and the little princess of the Turret looked at everything in front of them with interest, especially the little princess, who was eager to try the sword at her waist with her hand on her waist.

Qi Qiqi grabbed Ji Buyun, who was about to step forward, and said, "Brother Ji, junior brother go." ”

With that, he drew his short sword and soared into the air.

He glanced at the nine black cloud illusion heads in mid-air with disdain, and said, "Xiangliu, it was you who was instigated by Zhu Yan again, are you embarrassed for this little ability?"

The nine black cloud illusioned heads said in unison, "Who are you?"

Qi Seventeen said indifferently: "Wind God Temple, Qi Seventeen." ”

The nine heads of the black cloud illusion laughed wildly together: "Seventeen, I haven't heard of it, haha." ”

Qian Qiqi didn't care, and said: "It's okay to hear about it now." ”

The short sword in his hand pointed at the black cloud, and a strong storm roared towards the black cloud, and the black cloud was torn into countless pieces by the storm and flew towards the void.

Sangyanagi's spell was broken, and the seven-headed snake in the square lost control, and it screamed strangely and rushed towards the outside of the square.

Qi Qiqi sneered, the short sword pointed at the strange snake, and countless winds swept towards the strange snake, rolling up the strange snake in the air, there seemed to be countless sharp blades in the wind, constantly cutting the body of the strange snake, and it seemed to contain a divine sense attack method to suppress the strange snake's will to resist.

The strange snake was helpless and rolled its huge body in the wind, and it had no power to resist.

The dark clouds swept into the void by the storm regrouped together, and once again gathered into nine huge heads, shouting at the giant serpent, "Rise, rise." ”

The serpent regained its will to resist, and it struggled to curl its body in midair, gathering its strength to try and deliver a fatal blow to Seventeen.

Qi Seventeen's face became solemn, the short sword in his hand drew a circle in the air, pointed towards the strange snake again, and said in his mouth: "Extinguish." ”

A pale cyan storm erupted from the sword, whistling towards the strange snake, and the storm was like a physical violent air current, twisting and turning the strange snake's body into all directions.

Countless pale cyan particles were mixed in the storm, as if they were about to tear apart the body of the strange snake.

The heads of the nine black clouds were constantly drinking in mid-air, getting up, getting up.

The strange snake struggled between the storm and the spell of Xiangliu, and the storm particles of the seventeenth failed to tear open the skin of the strange snake.

Seventeen's spells could only control the snake's body, but could not completely destroy it.

Ji Buyun had witnessed the strange fish fighting the three-headed snake, and knew that these Xiangliu servants made the snake's skin extremely hard, and only by cutting through its hard skin could it destroy its body.

He moved as he wished in the gold shield, waved his hand, and the purple gold sword in his hand turned into a streamer, heading straight for the strange snake.

The invincible purple gold sword shone with brilliant light and penetrated the body of the strange snake, then hovered back in mid-air, passing through the body of the strange snake again.

After the purple gold sword left a wound on the seven-headed monster snake, the furious storm particles immediately invaded its body along the wound, and the monster snake screamed, and was instantly torn by the storm The flesh and bones were separated, and its skin and flesh were cut into countless tiny particles by the storm particles, flying towards the void, leaving only a huge skeleton flying in the air, indescribably desolate and weird.

Ji Buyun withdrew the purple gold sword, poured the aura into the sword according to the sword intent of the three swords, and said proudly towards the nine heads in mid-air: "Remember, the next time you will cut your body." ”

The nine heads of the black cloud illusion said together: "Who are you?"

Ji Buyun said: "Do you still remember the old things of the flower of earth and water three hundred years ago?"

The nine heads of the black cloud illusion were stunned in mid-air, and said, "What is your relationship with her?"

Ji Buyun said coldly: "You don't need to tell you this, you just need to remember that where there are highlanders, it is the forbidden land of your Xiangliu." ”

As soon as the words fell, the purple gold sword in his hand turned into a streamer and flew towards the nine heads in mid-air. The golden lightsaber blessed by the blood of the ancestral dragon exuded an endless wave of sword intent, instantly filling the entire sky, and under the suppression of Haoran Dao, Xiang Liu didn't even have time to resist, and he didn't dare to get up, and the black clouds silently dissipated in the sword intent in the sky.

Ji Buyun withdrew the purple gold sword, and the turbulent Senate Square returned to the bright sky and white sun.

Qian Qiqi pointed to the skeleton of the strange snake that was still flying in the storm and said, "Brother Ji, how to deal with this?"

Before Ji Buyun could speak, the little princess of the Sudden Cavalry Department suddenly clapped her hands and said, "It's so powerful, it's so powerful, Ji Gongzi, this princess is now throwing herself to the ground for the five bodies you admire." ”

Nan Wan'er glanced at her sideways and said to Ji Buyun: "Little brother, little brother, the ugly monster asked you how to deal with that skeleton?"

Ji Buyun asked the adults who walked out of the hall with expressions that had just returned to normal: "How to deal with this skeleton, please show me." ”

Lord Nezhiyue glanced at a few adults, and Lord Ao Zhiwu said: "It's better to leave this skeleton here, and build a new monument when renovating the square, to prove that I can't be humiliated or bullied by highlanders." ”

Lord Nezhiyue glanced at a few more adults and said, "This proposal is very good, Lord Ben supports it, what about the adults?"

The adults agreed with each other, and the best of these people naturally understood that when building a new monument, it was natural to write about Ji Buyun's exploits, which was the best way to please the high priest.

Ji Buyun signaled to Qi Seventeen, who slowly fell from mid-air, placed the skeleton of the strange snake in the deep pit that it smashed out, and placed itself in the pit it that he smashed, which perfectly explained what the so-called self-digging grave meant.

Xi Tuxiao had already explained to the adults in the foyer just now that Qian Seventeen was the personal guard newly sent to him by the Central Plains Empire, and the adults were focused on Ji Buyun, and they would naturally pay special attention to his guards.

After the surprise, the adults and the three envoys greeted each other again, and then Lord Nenokoshi led everyone to the five-member Consulate.

The elders and tribal elders who survived the catastrophe came to the slow platform in front of the foyer, and saw the mess and the white bones of strange snakes on the square, and shouted in unison "Haotian Shengming", looking for such a wise and powerful son-in-law for the noble high priest, as for the strength of Nan Wan'er and Qian Seventeen, they were automatically ignored by the elders and tribal elders intentionally or unintentionally.

After coming to the five-person Consulate, Nan Wan'er sat down directly next to Ji Buyun, she didn't say a word, her little face was full of hostility towards the little princess who had been aiming at her.

After exchanging pleasantries and exchanging shocks, it was agreed that the Prairie Mission would go back to the Prairie Pavilion to rest for a day, and then hold formal talks tomorrow.

The crowd of onlookers around the square who were originally scattered gathered again, amazed at the huge strange snake skeleton, and the brave spectators who had just hid in the room and watched the whole process were then eyebrows fluttering to tell the people around Ji Buyun's glorious deeds.

For a time, Ji Buyun's prestige among the highlanders reached its peak, and he was like a reborn creation god.

When sending the three envoys out of the Senate, the little princess of Tuqi ignored the unhappy Nan Wan'er by her side, and invited Ji Buyun to the grassland pavilion for a banquet tonight.

Before Ji Buyun could answer, Nan Wan'er hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, Princess Tuqi, my little brother wants to accompany others to eat at the Central Plains Hotel tonight, and I can't promise you." ”

Who knew that this little princess of the Turquoise Cavalry actually asked, "Is Gongzi Ji going to have a banquet in the Central Plains Pavilion tonight?"

Nan Wan'er was almost angry with her, but everyone was on the side, and she still answered for Ji Buyun very elegantly: "I'm sorry, princess, without the permission of the high priest's sister, the little brother will not invite you." ”

The little princess turned her face sideways and asked Nan Wan'er unceremoniously: "Forgive me for offending, what is the relationship between the elf princess and Ji Gongzi?

Nan Wan'er was also unceremoniously, she replied seriously: "That's natural, Princess Tuqi doesn't know, she is the little wife of Ji Gongzi, after he and the high priest's sister get married, he will marry someone, Princess Tuqi said, can people make decisions for Ji Gongzi?"

Who would have thought that the dignified elf princess would joke about marriage, and the princess of the Turkey Rider couldn't say a word by her.

Ji Buyun couldn't explain it at this time, so he could only follow Nan Wan'er's wishes.

Nan Wan'er couldn't help but smile secretly in her heart: I want to rob my little brother with others, I want to quarrel with others, I want to compare my face with others, you are far behind.

After everyone said goodbye to the three envoys in front of the Senate, Lord Ao Zhiwu escorted the three envoys to the Prairie Pavilion.

After the five ruling lords did their best to praise Ji Buyun's heroic performance just now in front of all the elders and tribal elders, Lord Nezhiyue publicly stated on behalf of the five rulers that during this plenary meeting of the Senate, Ji Buyun will be awarded the glorious title of lifelong patriarch for his two major achievements in maintaining the safety of the high priest and saving the Senate from fire and water.

This is more than a grade higher than the title of honorary veteran originally awarded to him, the honorary veteran is only a title, but the lifelong patriarch has all the rights of the official patriarch, and there is no limit on the number of years of service.

There has never been a non-pure-blooded Highlander who has served as a highlander senator, and if this proposal is passed, Ji Buyun will set a precedent for the Highlander Senate.

All the elders and tribal elders claimed that it was so, and it should be like this, otherwise it would not be possible to repay the kindness of Ji Gongzi.

Ji Cheng secretly muttered a few words to Nan Wan'er behind Ji Buyun at this time, and Nan Wan'er gracefully walked up to the adults and said, "I'm sorry adults, Ji Gongzi and others need to go to the Central Plains Pavilion to discuss some things, and it is about the high priest's sister, so it is inconvenient for people to disclose it." ”

Lord Nezhiyue exchanged glances with several adults, and they all felt that it should be Ji Cheng who wanted to discuss with Ji Buyun what the Central Plains Empire should do during his marriage to the high priest, but he just said it through Nan Wan'er's mouth.

Ne Zhiyue said: "There is nothing to do here, the princess and Ji Gongzi, please feel free." ”

After saying goodbye to everyone, Ji Buyun, Nan Wan'er, Ji Cheng took Qi Qiqi and others to the Central Plains Pavilion, and the jade priest took Wo Yue and other priests back to the priest's courtyard directly.

Xitu Xiaohe Youshe was directing the Praetorian Guards to clean up and clean up in the square, and when he saw Ji Buyun leaving, he personally ran over to express his gratitude to Ji Buyun.

Ji Buyun said a few polite words to him, and Xitu said to him: "Where will the brother go in a while." ”

Ji Buyun said: "Central Plains Pavilion." ”

Xitu said: "When my brother is done here, I will rush over as soon as possible and discuss with you if I have something." ”
