Chapter 225: Xuanwu Returns
Since the grievances between Meng Po and Yue Lao were resolved, the atmosphere in the Evening Green Valley has been much better.
Although soon after that, Yue Lao followed Tao Yao to the demon world, this time in the Evening Cui Valley, only Yuehua, Shulou, Bai Ze and Meng Po were really left.
Taishang Laojun has been locking himself in the room since that day when he said that he wanted to refine the antidote.
And Meng Po is used to it in the underworld, and she can't stand the place where the light is too strong, so she locks herself in the bamboo hut all day and doesn't come out, and only comes out for a walk after the sun goes down.
Yuehua and Shulou were waiting for news, and after Xuanwu lost contact, Shulou couldn't make a decision because he didn't know the situation on his side, so he had to wait for news in Wancuigu first.
"Is Xuanwu really okay over there?" Yuehua was still a little worried, even if it was an ancient divine beast, Xuanwu would have to face a whole army. "Will you try to contact him again?"
The two of them had nothing to do in the valley, Yuehua would go to the wine cellar in the morning to help Chekong look at the new wine he had sealed, and in the afternoon he stayed with Shulou all the time.
Two people in the mountains full of aimless walking, in the mountains in addition to the clear spring and cold mountain forest, there are usually Yuehua and Shulou two, for this thing, the two unexpectedly agreed, very enjoy the walk every afternoon.
It's just that Yuehua has always been uneasy recently, which makes Shulou a little unsure of how to comfort her.
Shulou is a little helpless, Yuehua doesn't know what is going on these days, she is always not at peace, and she worries about this and that when she is idle. I'm worried that there has been no news from the people who have been out of the valley for so long, if something is wrong.
Bai Ze has also been a little embarrassed all day since Chekong left, often shrinking himself to sleep on Yuehua's shoulders for a whole day, and the aura of Evening Cuigu has not made him look a little more energetic.
"It's going to be fine," Shulou comforted her, "If something really happens, he will definitely look for me, and I can't contact him now, probably because the situation is more tense." ”
Yuehua turned his head to look at Bai Ze who was lying on his shoulder, "Bai Ze has also been a little lacking in energy in the past two days, it seems that as long as he leaves Xuantian Palace, his body will be worse day by day." ”
Shulou glanced at Bai Ze, who was lying listlessly on Yuehua's shoulder, and said lightly, "No matter how abundant the aura of Late Cuigu is, it is still in the world after all, probably because the world is becoming more and more peaceful." ”
Yuehua looked at Bai Ze, who had been sleeping with his eyes closed, he shrunk himself into a small ball, covered with long and snow-white fluff, and lost his usual arrogance, at this time, he looked very well-behaved and cute.
Yuehua looked at the sky, "It's not too early, let's go back." Shulou followed her, and the two walked back together.
I was speechless all the way, and when I walked to the door of the bamboo house, the Shulou, which had been following Yuehua closely, suddenly stopped.
When Yuehua walked to the door and stretched out her hand to push the door, she found that the people around her disappeared at some point. She turned around and looked at the building, "What's wrong?" ”
There was a cruel light in Shulou's black eyes, and when Yuehua saw Shulou's eyes, a bad premonition surged in her heart, and she took back the hand she put on the door. Walking a few steps in front of the building, Yuehua tried to ask again.
"Shulou, what's wrong?"
Sulou's lips pursed into a line, and his dark eyes were full of displeasure, "Xuanwu has news, and he said that he will come to Cuigu to report the situation." ”
Yuehua was stunned for a moment, and then asked uncertainly, "Isn't this good news?" ”
Su Lou sighed, "Think about it, a soldier who has been sent out, the enemy has not been eliminated, under what circumstances will he take the initiative to come back?" ”
Yuehua was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly understood the problem that Shulou said. Yuehua raised her face and asked with a bit of disbelief, "You mean, Xuanwu failed to hold on?" ”
Su Lou looked at her for a few seconds and nodded slowly.
Xuanwu was sent to guard the spirit world, and if the threat of the Heavenly Emperor was not removed, he should not automatically ask to come back, unless there was no need for the spirit world to defend it anymore. Yuehua thought of this and didn't feel flustered.
"Could it be that the people sent by the Heavenly Emperor have occupied the Spirit Realm in such a short period of time and killed all the Spirit Clans?"
"It doesn't have to be killing everyone." He still maintained a calm appearance on the floor, and his voice carried the power to calm people's hearts.
"There are many ways to occupy a place, and perhaps they use some method to control the people in the spirit realm and make them obedient, just like they control the elders."
Silence spread between the two, and after a while, Yuehua asked softly, "What should we do now?" ”
Su Lou paused, and then replied, "After Xuanwu comes and talks about the situation, let's make a decision." Su Lou raised his eyes to look at the sky, "He should be there too." ”
As soon as the words of the building fell, I saw that clouds suddenly accumulated in the sky that was still clear, and a moment later, a large dark and dark cloud accumulated over the evening green valley. If you look at it from the outside, you will find that this cloud only exists in the sky over the Evening Green Valley.
Shulou looked up at the thickest part of the clouds, and there was a faint behemoth shuttling between the sea of clouds.
After a while, the form of a **** snake-tailed beast poked its head out of the clouds, and his roaring sound sounded like a muffled thunder falling in the valley, and it poked its head out, as if it was looking for something.
Shulou, who was standing beside Yuehua, suddenly stretched out his hand, and a dark light in his palm rose to the sky, heading straight towards the eyes of the strange beast.
The black light hit the alien beast without accident, it raised its neck and let out a long roar, and then quickly lowered its head to look in the direction of the light, and when it finally saw the two people standing below, the roar suddenly stopped.
In the next instant, the alien beast swooped down and came straight towards the direction where the tower and Yuehua were. The hurricane brought in between the actions leveled the nearby woods directly.
Yuehua was startled, she pulled the sleeve of Shulou and shouted at him anxiously, "Shulou!" This is Xuanwu, right? Why did he not come back? He's going to ruin this place! ”
Su Lou's dark eyes were filled with fierce wind and snow, he pushed away Yuehua beside him, and said in a calm voice, "Because he can't change back!" ”
Shulou stepped on the ground with one foot, and flew straight to the top of Xuanwu's head with his strength.
Xuanwu lowered his head, as if he was planning to attack the man who had already approached his own drench too much. Shulou slammed his palm on Xuanwu's huge head, and the light bursting from his palm wrapped Xuanwu in the middle.
Seeing this, Shulou swung his sleeves and flew back to the ground, and the light in his dark eyes had returned to his usual look.
After a moment of silence, a man in white half-knelt in front of the building, lowering his eyebrows and lowering his eyes, "My subordinates are incompetent, please punish the emperor." ”
The dark robe was silent for a long time, and then a slightly indifferent voice sounded, and Su Lou was expressionless, "Get up and speak." (To be continued.) )
