Volume 3 The Storm of the Two Capitals Chapter 98 The Providence of the Underworld

One rocket after another came through the window like a fire crow throwing into a forest, not only successfully igniting the black oil on the ground, raising a bright flame that was difficult to see, but also attached to the beams and pillars and curtains to burn endlessly, reflecting the light of a temple of fire.

There was a sudden chaos in the temple, and when the servants were facing a life-and-death crisis, they could no longer suppress their fear of death, and they rushed up to open the temple door, trying to escape from the temple before the fire broke out.

"Don't ......" Nanying shouted loudly, but he couldn't stop it.

As soon as the door of the temple opened, a gap more than one person wide, the servants frantically squeezed out. In the dense sound of arrows like strings, the middle of them all fell to the ground with a scream, but the rest still rushed out one after another as if they were not afraid.

The screams gradually stopped, and the corpses at the temple gate were piled up waist-high, and dozens of servants had all died tragically in an instant.

Several monarchs and ministers in the palace and more than a dozen guards were thrilled, but they all burned with tragic and desperate sadness and anger from the bottom of their hearts.

The thunderous sound of footsteps in the distance was getting closer and closer, and it was obvious that the reinforcements were close at hand, but Cui Jun's wild laughter sounded again: "Brothers, set fire to block the entrances everywhere!" ”

Nanying's heart finally sank to the bottom. Cui Jun had already planned everything, and he knew that he could not block the steady stream of reinforcements with more than 100 people, so he laid black oil at all entrances in advance. As long as the reinforcements approached, they set fire and resisted, although in the end they were still unable to stop the pace of the army, but it only took a moment or three to complete the heavy task of burning the Spirit Emperor.

The fire in the hall was even more intense, and even the beams and pillars were burned to the point of a "crackling" sound, and a terrible heat wave spread in all directions, making it difficult for people to breathe.

Through the gap in the window lattice of the main hall, the fire that rose into the sky in the distance could be faintly seen, and there seemed to be countless people screaming in panic, it seemed that Cui Jun's plan to delay the army had succeeded.

Nan Ying felt the gradually scorching floor under his feet, and knew that the terrible Jade Tree Thousand Flowers could be activated at any time, and for the first time, he gave birth to despair that was powerless.

"Brother Xian! Do you regret it? "The Spirit Emperor didn't know when he had come to Nan Ying's side, he was facing a life-and-death situation, but he completely calmed down, and his face was full of calm and calm.

"Regrets? What do you mean? Nan Ying listened to the long-lost "virtuous brother", and his heart seemed to return to the things he first met in Yiyang at that time, and he unconsciously calmed down, and he smiled: "If you say that you met a respectable brother in Yiyang, I won't regret it!" ”

"But! Speaking of sacrificing his life for the country today, he died as an escort! He suddenly laughed: "I'm not afraid to tell you frankly, my little brother regretted his death." Count me unlucky, I was killed alive by you, a dumb king! ”

Whether it was Zhang Rang's father and son, Cao Song, or the surviving guards, they all looked at Nanying in horror, but only Emperor Ling's body trembled slightly, and his eyes were covered with a faint mist.

"In my life, I have never owed anyone a favor! You, on the other hand, are an exception! He said with some emotion: "In this life and this life, I can have a brother who is willing to live and die, what is the regret of death?" ”

Nan Ying didn't speak, just stretched out his hand and stared at the Spirit Emperor quietly.

"But how can I bear to let you die young?" As soon as the Spirit Emperor grasped Nanying's palm full of strength and heat, a strange smile suddenly appeared on his lips: "And these loyal ministers and righteous people around me, I will not let you die!" ”

He pulled Nanying, turned around and walked towards the dragon steps in the hall, and said lightly: "As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, which shows the profound heritage of the wealthy family. So as a generation of emperors who reign over the world, how can you not take precautions for the three caves of cunning rabbits? ”

"What! You! Not only did Zhang Rang's father and son and Cao Song be dumbfounded when they heard this, but even Nan Ying blurted out: "Do you still have an escape path in this Jiade Palace?" ”

The entire hall was completely engulfed in flames and smoke, and the temperature was rising, like a hellfire on earth.

"Of course, but it's all thanks to you!" The Spirit Emperor walked as he walked. The top of the hall kept falling fireballs and broken wood, splashing down at his feet, but he seemed to be calm and relaxed, walking calmly, like a leisurely stroll, showing the imperial style of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him and not moving.

"Thanks to me? What does this mean? Nanying said blankly.

"You're going to know!" Emperor Ling and Nan Ying walked up the dragon steps side by side, stopping before the dragon number, he turned around and glanced at the ministers and guards who were still stunned on the spot, and shouted in a deep voice: "What are you still in a daze? Don't carry Cui Lie on your back, hurry forward! ”

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was confident, and the composure of the faction controlling the overall situation was by no means a bluff, they all gave birth to the crazy joy of being in a desperate situation, and they cheered together and rushed towards the seat of the Son of Heaven, which was usually sacred and inaccessible. What the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, what the defense of the thunder pool, all of them were left behind.

"Wave!" A wooden plank on the ground suddenly exploded, and a stream of inky black oil erupted from the ground, instantly triggering a blinding and dazzling fire.

Everyone lost color together, and only the Spirit Emperor turned a blind eye, he flew up and kicked it away, kicking the heavy dragon table far away, and then leaned over and lifted the thick woven carpet a few times.

In the disbelief of everyone, a round copper lid was revealed, but there was no handle to open it.

Zhang Feng couldn't wait to take a step forward, he took a deep breath, stretched out his hand to suck in the strength, but the copper cover was immovable.

"This! This! Why can't it be opened? Zhang Feng shouted.

"Of course it can't be opened!" Emperor Ling said lightly: "This is a top-secret passage for the Son of Heaven to save his life, if it can be easily opened, wouldn't it be child's play?" ”

He looked at the white faces of the ministers, and smiled: "Don't be disappointed, even I can't open it!" But there is a providence in the dark, and today we have a blessing here! ”

"Fu Jiang?" Everyone's eyes were focused on Nanying, and the eagerness and desire in his gaze could almost burn people.

"The secret is here!" The Spirit Emperor stretched out his hand and pointed to a square groove in the middle of the copper cover. There was also a word engraved in the groove:

"Does it sound familiar?" The Spirit Emperor smiled and turned his head sideways, and stretched out his hand towards Nanying: "Take it!" I knew you'd take it with you! ”

"It's a sea character!" Zhang Feng shouted, "What do you mean? ”

"Boom, boom!" There was a continuous crackling sound, and the ground in all parts of the temple was broken, and streams of black oil erupted, and the sky-high fire almost burned to the roof of the temple. Everyone felt breathless and almost out of breath.

"It turns out that this is a sea character! It's ridiculous that I didn't even know each other! A glimmer of light flashed in Nanying's eyes, and he reached into his arms and felt out a white jade token.

"Ice Order?" Zhang Rang's pupils contracted: "Could this be the thing that opens the tunnel?" ”

"Brother Chen, I'm really curious now!" Nan Ying sighed lightly, and he slowly raised the token, revealing the four official scripts on the front: if I was there in person, he followed the flip of his wrist and showed the back of the token.

Under the bright firelight, a faint inscription on the back of the token appeared:

"Could it be that when Your Majesty gave me the token, you already expected today's misfortune?" Nan Ying's sharp eyes stared at Emperor Ling: "After escaping, the younger brother hopes to get an explanation!" ”

"One day, you'll understand! But don't be in a hurry! Emperor Ling couldn't help but bow his head, avoiding Nanying's burning gaze. He shoved the token into the square groove.

The rumbling sound of the mechanism sounded, and the copper cover suddenly and slowly parted left and right, revealing a bottomless tunnel.

The Spirit Emperor raised his head and suddenly smiled: "If I still say that this is just the will of heaven in the dark, will you be satisfied?" ”

"Of course not, you ......" Nanying suddenly changed color and raised his head, yelling: "Get out of the way!" ”

He pounced on it and hugged the Spirit Emperor.

A heavy broken beam fell silently and smashed Nanying's back.

"Wow" Nanying only felt that his eyes were dark, and a shocking canopy of blood spurted out of his mouth, which was softly pressed on the Spirit Emperor under him.

"Virtuous brother..."Emperor Ling's face was covered with the blood spurted out by Nanying, and for the first time a frightened look appeared in his eyes, he couldn't speak: "You, you!" ”

"Quick, hurry up and carry the Son of Heaven and Nanying Yang, let's go!" Someone shouted.

The figures in front of him were chaotic, Nan Ying's vision gradually blurred, his ears were also buzzing, but his heart was surprisingly calm, and countless images in his mind also came one after another, Gao Shun, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Qing'er and others flashed one by one, and even the faces of Daddy and Zhang Jiao slowly emerged, and finally a quiet and cold jade face appeared......

Is this going to die? Yes, man dies eventually. Before I died, my biggest regret was that I couldn't see you again, but my no regret is that I have lived a clear conscience in this life, and I have been wonderful......
