Chapter 78 Blowing the Stars in the Second Half of the Sky 1
If you meet Yan Ying in Fengle Building, it must be on the seventh floor of the top floor.
After Nie Shengqiong, the head of Fengle Building, retired, Yan Ying frequently went in and out of there. Anyway, it's useless, and with her beauty, it is completely suitable to replace Nie Shengqiong, but if someone says this to Yan Ying, Yan Ying will definitely be angry, she will smile and pour wine to others, and the wine will be sinful as soon as she drinks it, and when she wakes up, she will find herself lying at the foot of the mountain on the edge of Bianjing City, and a few little beasts will run over and sniff her earlobes, and if you are unlucky, your nose will be bitten off.
Yan Ying rarely takes people up to this floor, it seems to be a secret paradise of her own, and the more private, the more curious people are, people who want to spend a good night with Yan Ying can be lined up from the first floor to the seventh floor of Fengle Building, but no one finds that the people who are really taken up to the seventh floor by Yan Ying often disappear from there. These people often come from special backgrounds and are not familiar with their lives, such as Wan Yansheng. When he disappeared, he was quickly forgotten.
And one of the few Zhao Ji who has a slightly longer memory of this made Yan Ying have a sense of crisis for the first time.
"Yan Ying," Zhao Ji held a chicken leg in both hands by the window on the third floor, his cheeks bulging like a little squirrel, he looked at Yan Ying, and said in a vague voice, "I haven't seen that Jurchen for a long time." ”
Yan Ying thought that she had heard it wrong, looked at him with a smile, and said, "What did you say? But in fact, she didn't have the intention to chat with Zhao Ji now, so she planned to leave after saying this.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Ji quickly refused to swallow this mouthful of meat, and repeated to her in a clearer voice: "I said, I haven't seen that good-looking Jurchen for a long time." How could he never show up again?"
These words were like a hammer, slammed into Yan Ying's heart, as if the corpse buried in the ground a few feet deep was dug out by the fox and showed up, she really didn't expect him to remember. Of course, it's no wonder that Yan Sheng was born very special and very handsome, and those who have experienced his stunning debut will always remember him for many days. But that was a few months later.
"We can't control the guests' affairs. Wherever he wants to go, it's all his own wish. Yan Ying smiled, "If you really want to see him, little prince, wait until the next time he comes, I'll introduce you, okay?"
Zhao Ji hurriedly smiled and waved his hand: "I just asked casually." However, if he really appears, it is also a kind of fate, often people meet for the first time just by chance, and the second time they meet, it can be regarded as really fate. Right?"
Yan Ying smiled: "That's true." ”
Zhao Ji grinned and said, "Right, so I can meet Yan Ying, it can be said that I am very, very lucky, this is my fate, maybe." ”
Yan Ying smiled. She felt that Zhao Ji was very tricky, and it was difficult to handle in all aspects. He was like a man who would "uncover secrets" - a terrible premonition that was really uncomfortable. Because he's cute and likable, she wants it to happen later. If it has to happen, give him a hint.
Fengle Building is very high, and the seven-story building is not easy to climb.
Zhao Ji ran in front, and the people behind him followed very closely, which made him a little angry, desperately trying to throw them away, but after all, it was a professionally trained escort team, and he didn't look tired, but Zhao Ji was so tired that he was out of breath, and he coughed for a while with his hands on his thin thighs, and said, "It should be here." Fung Lok Lou is the center of Frost Moon Street, and this is the center of Fung Lok Lou, you check carefully, there is nothing special here. If nothing else...... It's on this floor. ”
Wenshu said: "Obey." Search!" At the sound of the order, the escort team immediately divided into several squads and began to search the seventh floor in great detail, if there was any mechanism, they immediately found out and tried it, but unfortunately it was not very successful.
Watching the escorts start to search, Zhao Ji seemed to finally be able to take a break. He glanced at the balcony, it was very early, Nie Shengqiong was still here, she leaned out from this attic, the fireworks above her head bloomed, amazed the entire Bianjing City, people passing through Fengle Lou raised their heads one after another, attracted by the beauty in front of them, Nie Shengqiong's beauty has since won the battle.
However, at this moment he lost the mood to see the scenery. He lowered his head in a low mood and walked over, lying on the windowsill and looking down in the distance, which was the direction in which Su Can led the Nian Beast to disappear just now. It was too far away, he couldn't see clearly, sighed, and said, "Why hasn't Su Can come over yet?"
"It's okay, His Royal Highness King Duan. Ye Langxing looked at him inside and said, "It's okay to question anyone's strength, but don't worry about bringing imperial weapons." They're amazing. ”
Zhao Ji's eyes darkened, and he reluctantly smiled: "Ah, yes." ”
He turned his head, Wenshu was walking over, and said, "His Royal Highness King Duan, we ...... just now."
"Did you find anything?
"Nope. Wenshu said apologetically, "It's just a very ordinary floor. ”
"How could it be ......" Zhao Ji sighed, turning his head to look at the sky, which made him take three steps back and hit the wall. He didn't bother to rub the back of his head, looked at the sky and paced back and forth, and said, "Center...... The center of the sky ......"
"What's the matter, His Royal Highness King Duan?" Ye Langxing took a step forward, and as Zhao Ji's eyes looked over, he was also surprised, and said, "I thought that all places were white nights, but I didn't expect that on this windowsill, I could actually see the 'Purple Microstar'?"
Once you walk here, you can see that the darkness is shining brightly in a miserable whiteness.
"The purple microstar is the 'center' of the Big Dipper. Zhao Ji said, "Have you found it, you can only see it in this position, and if you change places, you can't see it again." So I thought, the so-called truth is probably in my location, right?" he looked at the sky, slowly crouched down, and touched his hand to the floor tiles.
It's not so easy to wear a royal device. After the layers of selection, people seem to be rolling in hell, taking off seven or eight layers of skin, leaving a fragile heart, which will be dispersed as soon as the wind blows—but there is no need for this thing in the first place, as long as you remain loyal to death, right? This is the purpose of the original selection: if you want people who have no feelings, so that those who are lacking in mind can do it.
But this has caused a new contradiction, because you fight to the death, one by one, you have reached the realm of the mountains, in fact, there is no difference, at this time you have to fight other things, such as the ability to observe words and colors, the cunning of coercion step by step, and the unrivaled strong self-confidence of the aura - that is, "intelligence" and "personality", what is needed is "genius". It's like the insects in the Gu bite each other, and when the last few are released, they are often special and unheard of.
So at first, the Queen Mother was not satisfied with the selection of the four with imperial equipment. They are all too young, too special, too cute, and completely different from the imagined faithful, cruel, and stupid. The Queen Mother frowned and looked at the few people in front of her, turned her head and whispered to Tong Guan, who came over to listen: "When I saw the mourning family, instead of kneeling down and saluting, I smiled and grinned, and I had to be reminded to bow my head reluctantly." Did you choose the wrong person? How can this be the guard who finally came out after killing so many people? Look at it, there is also a child, can such a small child also be able to kill people? Tong Guan, do you think these people can be trusted?"
Tong Guan smiled and said: "The Queen Mother, you can rest assured that these people have been trained in the palace for many years, and after layers of selection, the freshly baked alternative with imperial equipment is the crystallization of the palace's hard work, don't believe it, you can just call the masters in the palace to duel with them, it is absolutely invincible." They are all very strong and very loyal. As for their attitude, Queen Mother, think about it, they have been training and fighting since they can remember, and they understand 'loyalty', but they don't understand the 'rules'. If they are taught this too early, they will be limited by their own inner thoughts when they kill. But now they can be trained, their brains are very good, and if they are not good, they can't bring imperial equipment, the Queen Mother, you can train them well by yourself when the time comes, and it must be a little bit of a trick. They are good seedlings, Queen Mother, they are very good. ”
The Queen Mother snorted lightly and said, "Okay." In the future, if the mourning family has anything to do with them, it will be up to you to tell them. Before they were taught, the mourning family didn't want to talk to them directly, and the mourning family didn't want to be angry every day. ”
"It's natural. Tong Guan hurriedly nodded and said, "The slave must convey the Queen Mother's request as it is, so that the Queen Mother will not bother." ”
Then add fuel and vinegar to our words to the Queen Mother. Su Can looked up and smiled.
The solemn atmosphere in the hall was directly torn to pieces by Su Can's words. When he said this, he was directly frightened and his hair stood on end, and he blurted out: "Who is so bold and said such unruly words!"
As soon as these words came out, the Queen Mother suddenly laughed, Tong Guan raised her head suddenly, and looked at the young man with delicate facial features in front of him, the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt, and suddenly the lightning in his mind jumped over Liu Anshi's face, he was shocked, and said: "You, you are - Liu Anshi's one-"
"What?" Su Can smiled and frowned. Even with such an unfriendly expression with slight contempt, the beautiful boy could not hide his beauty in the slightest, and the whole person looked sparkling: sparkling, because it was alive. It is precisely because he is a beautiful boy that after the Queen Mother saw his face clearly, she changed from "hateful" to "interesting" with his attitude.
But there was one thing she still needed to figure out: "Tong Guan, what did you just say?" Without waiting for Tong Guan to answer, she continued, "In order to prevent mistakes, aren't they all trained by all relatives to ensure 'absolute loyalty'? What's going on now?"
Tong Guan said in a cold sweat: "Queen Mother, this kind of thing happened to greatly exceed the minion's expectations." This child, he is different, his experience is very special. Do you remember that at that time, in order to study 'immortality', we selected a teenager to conduct an 'experiment'? That experiment was successful, that teenager was revived by Liu Anshi, his body was reconnected, and his soul was selected as a part of someone else, and it really succeeded. Then put him back into the training and selection with imperial equipment, thinking that his wound was not healed anyway, and there was a high probability that he would not live for a long time, and he would not be treated again. I didn't expect him to survive the selection with imperial equipment...... If, if the queen mother is not satisfied, the slave will put him to death. ”
"You can't kill me. Su Can pursed his lips and smiled, his tone was very unscrupulous, and said, "If you don't believe it, you can try it now." ”
"You-" Tong Guan trembled with anger and said, "I'll ask Liu Anshi to give you some color!"
Su Can said leisurely: "What's the use of looking for Liu Anshi? I am only loyal to the emperor and the queen mother now." ”
The Queen Mother laughed: "Did you hear that, Tong Guan? You can't kill him, you can be worth a forbidden army with imperial equipment alone, otherwise you will be sorry for our training and selection! As soon as you appear, you have a conflict with them, and you want to kill people, it's really a waste, right? And you see, how smart and cute he is." The mourning family likes this, bold, clever, and must be very loyal...... Young man, tell the mourners, what's your name?"
Tong Guan was confused by the sudden variables, but he had to accept the Queen Mother's arrangement - the Queen Mother is always right. So he could only wait until they chatted for a long time before he asked stupidly: "So, when the Queen Mother orders in the future, will it be conveyed through the mouth of the slave, or will you personally ...... the Queen Mother?"
The Queen Mother smiled: "Even you can't stand their unrulines, and the mourning family can't stand it even more." The mourning family didn't say that they didn't have to do anything anymore, just keep doing it, and the mourning family remembered it. ”
"Good. Minions understand. Tong Guan responded, bowed his head and retreated.
In addition to Su Can's peculiar experience, his personality is also very rebellious, basically half relying on a beautiful face, and half relying on a choking mouth to kill people and constantly sending people to heaven and hell. It all depends on whether he is happy or not, anyway, no one can beat him, even in the imperial equipment, he has a very strong ability, so that bullying Yinfeng has become commonplace - but Yinfeng has a cute, simple and cheerful personality, very likable, and has become one of the few people in Su Can's life who is happy when he sees it.
However, Su Can still doesn't like his work very much, but this is also a fate that cannot be escaped, and it is all fought with his life. He didn't want to use everything he had to offset everything he had, and in the end he ended up with nothing, it was really meaningless, so he just left it for now. He spoke sharply and sharply, and when Tong Guan gave him orders, he was always scolded back, and it seemed that this did not affect himself, after all, protecting the emperor with his life was only possible with a few of them with imperial weapons. With imperial equipment, he will always die earlier than the emperor, and there is no good death in every dynasty and every generation.
Su Can thought that this time would be different from the past. The emperor is dying, but they are still alive. But impermanence died first, and before that it was Silver Wind, and now when his proud ability also consumed himself, he began to realize that this was not a "rule", but a "curse". None of them with imperial weapons can live until after the emperor dies.
Then, the emperor should still be alive now. Su Can thought about it, and the sharp pain split his soul, as if a huge mountain range pressed on his body, destroying every inch of his skin, making him cry for the second time in his life. The first time was when I was young and ignorant, because of the incredible doubts and unwillingness caused by the sudden murder. Now life is worse than death, so he has really reached the limit of endurance.
The Nian Beast watched him from a few feet away from him. The year beast lowered its head and raised its hind body, its tail flicking in the air, slapping the ground hard and raising pale snowflakes. The size of the Nian Beast exceeded his expectations, but he didn't estimate it much, because he never had a chance of winning, and he knew that very well. His only purpose and function was to lure this year beast away from Fengle Building, so that Zhao Ji and his party could be safe and sound. That's enough. However, the word "surrender" does not exist in his own life, and it is impossible for him to admit defeat on the spot, let alone a beast.
Even though he was tired, weak, nervous, and bleeding profusely. The frostbitten area turned purple and black, and before he could react, he was burned by the fire to a huge blister, one ice and one heat, the body quickly festered, and the pain turned into numbness in the end. At the same time, the fangs of the Nian Beast were sharp, and the strength was so great that it almost turned the wound of his body that had been broken in half into two pieces again, and the blood oozed out of the wound, and through the layers of his clothes, it was frozen into a large piece of hard and unknown reason by the wind in the outermost layer.
When he made up his mind again, Su Can turned his head and glanced at Fengle Building. Fengle Building is still in the snow, and it is an ordinary building with gray towers. This made Su Can a little disappointed, the disappointment accumulated too much, and it turned into a more bad mood, he hurriedly shook his head, opened his eyes, and his eyes burned with orange-red light, he sneered at the huge year beast, and said, "Come on, I want to see if your ice was burned by me first, or if my fire was extinguished first......
The year beast raised its head and roared, and a stream of extremely cold air was released from its mouth, and the sound of whistling was endless, and when the glacier collapsed, the avalanche rampage, and the intense frost was roaring towards him, and the human body was in the midst of the collapse, and the huge and hard ice around him hit his bones, and the snowflakes as sharp as knives cut his ears, and the high-pressure cold air exploded in front of him in an instant, and the impact of extreme cold and pain was extremely strong, and the blood in his body was almost completely coagulated.
Su Can was stunned by this huge power, and he couldn't react for a while, and the next moment, his throat tightened, his body trembled violently, and he let out an extremely terrified and heartbreaking scream.
- Damn. Su Can gritted his teeth and thought, trembling and reluctantly putting his hand to his chest, to get the little warmth left, so that his hand would not be completely frozen and necrotic, although his hand had become charred and unrecognizable, and the slender and slender fingers and thin and gentle palm were gone, like a dry tree. His finger pointed up to the sky, and in the whistling of the ice and snow that invaded his muscles and bones, he whispered, "Come, dragon ......."
