Chapter Seventy-Eight: Sadness Returns
"What about the cat?" asked Long Lin.
Chen Xingmiao didn't know why he cared about Zeng Lixue's cat, and he hadn't asked Duanmu Qingyue about the cat's whereabouts, so he could only shake his head and say that he didn't know, "... According to Duanmu Yingrui, Zeng pulled out a sword that pierced her skull, and it was stained with her golden blood, which fell to the snow drop by drop, and a golden stream of blood flowed down the bridge of her nose from the center of her eyebrows, "slicing" her pale and beautiful face in half. She threw away her cat, held the tip of the sword in her left hand, twisted her hands together, twisted the black sword into a hemp rope shape, and formed a black circle, and the hilt of the sword fell off with it... When all the gods and generals looked at her in amazement, for some reason, all of a sudden, a huge black circle burned with blinding white flames, like a total eclipse of the sun, covering their faces unexpectedly...... It is said that when the snow god fell, the entire Wushen Star Domain was filled with the fragrance of the dustless green lotus, which did not disperse for a long time. ”
"Shouldn't it be the fragrance of plum blossoms?" asked Long Lin, his heart moving.
Chen Xingmiao was a little puzzled by his train of thought, and said: "This is Duanmu Yingrui's memory, he was injured, maybe his perception is not accurate. The main reason for the explosion of the Wushen Star and the serious injury of the Heavenly Machine Star Lord has not been clarified in the Divine Realm. Zeng Lianxue's blow before death almost killed Tianji Xing. And Duanmu Yingrui, because he couldn't bear to see Zeng Lixue being humiliated, did not step forward, but stood behind the Eight Clouds Che, but luckily picked up his life, and the rest of the thousands of military captains and divine soldiers were almost killed by Zeng Lixue at that time. ”
"Okay, I've pulled so many bastards on my back, it's enough..." Long Bao was happy when he heard this, "By the way, why is that Heavenly Machine Star Lord so bad?"
"Jiang Qice is a civilian star master, so he is naturally inferior to a martial star monarch like Zeng Xue who has been fighting all year round. Chen Xingmiao replied.
"Did the witch god collaborate with the enemy?" asked Long Lin.
"I also asked the Duanmu Priestess. I always remember vividly the sorrow and indignation on her face at that time, and she said to me while crying, 'I can believe anyone in the whole divine realm who collaborates with the enemy, but I never believe that the witch god Zeng Hanjiang will collaborate with the enemy and will rebel!'... She has a gentle personality, and only when she talks about the witch god case, she becomes extremely angry. She thinks that the witch god is in charge of the prison and has a strict temperament, so it is inevitable that he will be guilty of evil people, and this is the source of the disaster. ”
Long Lin thought that this was just Duanmu Qingyue's opinion, and in fact, there was no evidence that showed that there was a grievance in the Wushen case, especially Zeng Lianxue's blow before his death, which almost confirmed their treason guilt. And Mao Juhua is likely to be the only survivor who escaped in this case, a fugitive from the divine realm... His heart tightened, remembering what Yun Shuixi had said that it didn't matter if he could know the truth or not...
Long Bao was suddenly stunned and said, "Why do I think that chrysanthemum's collar seems to be the black sword that is broken?"
Long Lin seriously hugged his small body and instructed him, "Don't talk about chrysanthemums!" Long Bao nodded with a tight face.
"How much does Duanmu Priestess know about the Witch God Case?" asked Long Lin.
Chen Xingmiao shook his head, "She said that before the incident, Zeng Lianxue seemed to have sensed it, and once gave her a purple lotus seed, but she didn't say a word. ”
"Why did the witch god falsify information and summon the sea god back?" asked Long Lin again, he thought that this was the key.
"It's the hardest thing to break down. The witch god admits that he summoned the god of the sea, but refuses to admit that he collaborated with the enemy, and does not explain what his motives were... Alas, when Duanmu Priestess talks about this, she always cries for a long time. For fear that she would be sad and angry, I didn't ask later. It is impossible to figure out these ancient mystery cases in the divine realm. As soon as Chen Xingmiao said Duanmu Qingyue, his expression couldn't be at ease.
Obviously, in the days when they got along, Duanmu Qingyue had told him many times about those dotted memories, but he didn't know anything about the true inside story of the witch god case.
"Why should Zeng Lianxue... That scared of sin and committed suicide?" Long Bao couldn't understand.
Long Lin also said, "I heard that the most important military feat in the God Realm, not to mention that the war was raging at that time, if the behavior of the witch god had nothing to do with Zeng Lianxue, she shouldn't be too much of a strain involved, right?"
"Presumably as she said before she died, I don't want to be humiliated... Zeng Shen's female love was fierce and resolute, and it is not surprising that she committed suicide. Chen Xingmiao replied.
"Then she and her father must have been wronged. Long Bao concluded, "Whether it is a human being or a god, if you are not afraid of death at all, how can you collaborate with the enemy and become a traitor?"
Chen Xingmiao and Long Lin were both speechless.
Greedy for life and afraid of death, real people, demon cultivators and demons, Long Bao has seen too much.
"That, cough," Long Lin cleared his throat and asked, "Is that Duanmu Divine Maiden the mother of Brother Yuetian?"
Chen Xingmiao had a blank face, and after a long while, he squeezed out two words: "No!"
Long Bao opened his big hairy eyes: "What about his mother?"
"Yes. Chen Xingmiao cherished the words like gold again.
Talking about the war between gods and demons, Chen Xingmiao's face became normal, he hated the practice of the true immortals in the Middle Realm colluding with the demon gods back then, and said angrily: "The demon race is cruel and tyrannical, and regards the human race like a mustard. What can you gain by colluding with them? If you can say that you can gain independence and freedom under the pretense of the hand of the demon god, it is simply a plot with the tiger! It is simply stupid..." His voice was low, "The middle realm will eventually become the hunting ground and slaughtering ground of the demon god!"
Long Lin thought that Chen Xingmiao had always been reluctant to let Chen Yue, who was the first on the Immortal List, enter the Heavenly Realm, probably because of this consideration. The power of the remnants of the demon god in the Middle Realm is likely to be beyond the imagination of the Nether Terrans. And Chen Xingmiao also became a loyal follower of the Protoss because of Duanmu Qingyue. Of course, his real plan would not be discussed with someone like Long Lin Long Bao who is still unclear about his "position", however, Long Lin felt that Chen Xingmiao was an honest and credible person: although the other party probably hoped that he was a blood Yin of the Protoss, he did not deliberately deceive, but said his true opinion.
Long Lin thought for a moment and asked again, "Which general under the command of the first-level star lord is Zeng Lianxue Divine Maiden?"
"The Broken Army Star Lord is alone. ”
"Oh..."Hearing Dugu's name again, Long Lin's heart beat violently.
"This old man is really, and his own subordinates don't cover it, and they are killed by those heavenly machines or something?" Long Bao said.
Chen Xingmiao replied, he heard Duanmu Qingyue say that the case of the witch god involved a wide range of things, and the Broken Army Star Lord was also stripped of the god title of the first-level star lord by the God Realm, and half of his godhead was sealed. His last battle with the Demon God was a sin campaign, and if it weren't for that, he wouldn't have fallen... The sad color floated in Chen Xingmiao's eyes.
"I see. Long Lin nodded. Half of the seal is sealed, and only four stars remain... Dugu's godfall proved his own innocence.
"Damn, it's all infighting, and I've ruined myself!" Long Bao couldn't stand it anymore, "If you want me to see that this god realm is not a good place, and there are few good things in the god clan..."
Chen Xingmiao was very unimpressed, his face changed color and said, "You can't say that." A warrior with flaws is a warrior after all, and a perfect fly is just a fly!"
Long Lin couldn't agree with this statement.
He asked about the events before and after the fall of the Broken Army Star Lord, but Chen Xingmiao said that he didn't know the details, because Duanmu Qingyue fell into the Nether Realm before that. He looked at the book of "Breaking the Army" handed to him by Long Lin, his fingers tapped lightly, and he fell into a long meditation.
In the end, Chen Xingmiao said back to Zeng Lianxue: "Although the Duanmu Priestess is a civilian female official, she is very compatible with Zeng Lianxue, and every time Zeng Lianxue returns from the battle, she will be invited to a small gathering in the Wanzai Plum Garden." She always said that she missed the past when she saw Lian Xue take off her battle armor, put on her daughter's clothes and makeup, and chant poems and dance swords with her on the Qinglian Pond in the dark fragrance of the shadows; In the dream, Ryoma is as good as ever, with golden horns, long snow-like manes and silver scales shining with an indelible brilliance. Behind her, there are millions of divine soldiers surging like a galaxy... But when she woke up, there was only the sorrowful wind of the Mourning Snow Mountains, and everything in the God Realm had disappeared. ”
Behind her, there are millions of divine soldiers surging like a galaxy... Somehow, Long Lin sighed infinitely in his heart. Did such a goddess really exist?
