Chapter 203: The Secret Passage of Changle Palace
The fang-like heavy night was already the second half of the night, and the enchanting Xuanyue had sunk down very early, and in another country in the northwest, the Wolf Cang Country, the mansion of the priest Phantom Xingchen, three or five dark gray bats had fallen on the bare poplar mound outside the house, and sometimes their black wings squeaked and flew to another dead branch. 『』
In the center of the lobby, Phantom Xingchen was wearing a pale green brocade robe and a reclining chair, and a bat meekly landed on his robe.
His large, knobby hands stroked its short black fur for a while.
"The high priest has condemned his subordinates and failed to complete the task," said one of the dead men, followed by several dead men kneeling with expressionless faces.
Phantom Xingchen lying on the couch chair seemed to be asleep, with slightly closed eyes, flickering long eyelashes, and even breathing, but his slender fingers were still caressing the well-behaved bat on his legs.
Seeing that Phantom Xingchen was motionless, the dead soldier who took the lead spoke again: "Nan Wufeng led the army to attack Jiangdu, Nan Yueming was forced to abdicate, and now Nan Yueming is being put in prison, and the hundred dead soldiers led by his subordinates went to aid Nan Yueming, only a few dead soldiers remained, and his subordinates found that the soldiers led by Nan Wufeng were not affected by the illusion technique we cast, and our illusion technique could not control their soldiers at all, and there was also the joining of the Beichuan Kingdom in this battle, and the subordinates found the army of the Beichuan Kingdom in the army, It is speculated that Beiluochuan returned to Beichuan when there was no wind in the south to guard the frontier, which was premeditated."
He spoke in a soft voice, for fear of waking up the sleeping high priest, and as soon as his words fell, he could only hear the sound of clicking behind him.
"Do you need to analyze these things for our company?" , At this moment, Phantom Xingchen opened his eyes, and a palm wind went down, and the nine kneeling dead soldiers behind the dead soldiers who spoke turned into ashes, "A group of useless things, the mission failed, but they found the reason in the enemy."
The bat also flew out of the lobby from Phantom Xingchen's body and flew into the poplar mound in the ruins.
The dead are accustomed to such a situation, the dead are lifeless, ready to be buried for the master, it may be the next second, and the dead are calm and calm for the moody master, and anyone and everything is ruthless.
"Let go of the wind, the golden red silk and the sect leader of the Shacheng Ghost Domain are in the hands of the emperor of the Southern Ji Kingdom, to strengthen the cultivation of illusions, Nan Wufeng should have refined some kind of herb", the incomparably cold voice sounded in the hall again, Phantom Xingchen stood up, walked to the inner room, and paused again, the purple pupils of the other dead soldiers were more demonic, and the pupils were flowing with Huaguang, his lips hooked, and he added: "It should be the emperor of the Fengsheng Kingdom."
"No, the priest is wise!" , the kneeling dead man immediately went out to act.
…
Before dawn, Mu Xi had already woken up from his sleep and could no longer sleep, the candles in the house had burned out, it was black, he couldn't see his fingers, he looked at the darkness outside through the broken window, the moon had already penetrated into the clouds, and he could only hear the cold wind outside the window, and the sound of a few dead trees swaying in the cold wind.
Mu Xi put on a thin red cloak, took a fire fold and went out of the door, but there was no guard at the door, thinking that he should be sleepy in the middle of the night and looking for a place to rest.
Although it is early spring, winter has just passed, and the so-called spring is cold, wind and rain are bleak, and the warmth and cold are still undecided. The cold wind blew the wood and shivered.
She cut open the fire, and the light of the fire gradually lit up, and by the flickering light of the fire, she groped her way to find the exit, the gate of the courtyard.
Standing at the gate of the courtyard, at the top of the door frame, there is a plaque hanging obliquely, Mu Xi tiptoed up and approached to see the handwriting engraved on it, "Changle Palace", this courtyard is really Changle Palace, it seems that this maid did not lie to her.
When she looked around for the intersection, Mu Xi felt more and more familiar to this place, and when she took a few steps forward, she saw a very long river, and she could see the swaying lights on the other side of the river, and she suddenly remembered that she had indeed been here, and she remembered this river, and when she was sick, Bronze had brought her here to heal.
If I remember correctly, this yard has no access to the outside world, only this river, in the absence of a boat, can only swim over, last time she was on the passage for a long time was unsuccessful, only to swim over, several times in the water hamstrings, almost drowned in the river, life is precious, this time she said nothing will swim over.
Mu Xi held the fire fold and turned back to the yard, saying that this yard had been abandoned for several years, and it was impossible to pass the boat, and it seemed that it would have to wait until summer, and the weather was warm, and it was swimming past.
However, before he could go back to the original house, the fire had already burned out, so Mu Xi had to feel it back, step by step, carefully probing.
I always feel that the distance was not so far when I came out, why do I go back to the house now, I haven't arrived after walking for so long, I can't be lost!
The road is getting darker and darker, a little darker than just now, Mu Xi tightened his cloak in fear, and walked alone on the gloomy path in this cold dark night, surrounded by silence or silence, now just want to hurry up and dawn.
"Oops", Mu Xi exclaimed, I don't know what he tripped, it's soft, it's hot, it can't be that kind of thing, right?
So unlucky! Mu Xi squatted down and reached out and touched it, it was still sticky and smelly, could it be some rotting corpse that had been dead for a long time?
Mu Xi was so frightened that he held his breath, rushed forward vigorously, and tripped many times along the way, even if his knee was rubbed against the skin, Mu Xi did not stop at all, and ran wildly with his feelings without direction and no goal.
I don't know how long I ran, Mu Xi stopped panting heavily, his body was a little dizzy, and he remembered that he hadn't eaten for four days.
At this moment, it seems that it is almost dawn, and the road is no longer the first time that you can't see your fingers, but you can see the lines on your palms.
The first rays of light in the morning pierced through the dense fresh leaves of the trees, followed by two or three beams, and when the sun was completely out of the horizon, thousands of rays of light spread evenly through the stacks of young leaves.
Mu Xi saw clearly in front of him, this is simply a primeval forest, a piece of green, all towering thousand-year-old trees, under the ancient trees are shrubs, the branches of the trees are staggered, and the flourishing branches and leaves stretched out are like green clouds, covering the blue sky tightly, making Mu Xi breathtaking. But she had to go out first, she hadn't eaten for four days since she had been hungry.
Looking down and looking around, she didn't find anything that tripped her during the night, which made her even more convinced that it was hell.
She wanted to go back to the room, but she didn't expect to come here inexplicably, this should be another secret exit of Changle Palace, but I don't know where this is the exit, I didn't expect that there is such a world behind Changle Palace, presumably the master who lived in Changle Palace before must be a leisurely and elegant person,
