Chapter 117: The Beginning of a Conspiracy
Since the day the sundial was loosened, the wolves of ordinary people on the frontier have been a little manic and anxious. There are sudden injuries to people, but they are all minor injuries, and occasionally being injured by wolves is a very common sight for people in the frontier. Every time the wolf hurts the owner, he will look innocent, and the owner knows that the wolf is not intentional, so no one cares about the matter at all.
It wasn't until three days later that even the snow wolf beside the Great Elder showed different signs. The snow wolf is the leader of all the wolf packs in the frontier, and at the same time belongs to the existence of a divine beast, its concentration is far beyond that of humans, but at this time, the snow wolf can perceive something, and no normal people are disturbed, it means that something different has happened.
He ran into the council hall of the frontier and shouted, "Has anything strange happened lately!" The subordinates who were sorting out the materials or reading the book were all taken aback by the excited appearance of the Great Elder, and the Second Elder was stunned for a moment and stammered, "No······ No, except for the fact that there are a lot of Tengxiao Kingdom and Jianian Dynasty troops surrounded by us outside. But don't you say they don't move, so we don't have to make a fuss? ”
The Great Elder felt that he should ask in a different way in order to ask something. "I'm asking the wolf, is there anything wrong with everyone's wolf?" It was in vain that the Great Elder asked this, and sure enough, he asked something. The fourth elder said: "When you say this, I think of it, recently, many people's wolves have some hurtful actions at first, but they have been huddled in a corner of their homes for the past two days and have not come out much. ”
The Great Elder was furious and said, "Why don't you report it to me!" As soon as he roared, everyone instantly put down what they were holding and immediately stood upright. The second elder swallowed his saliva and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, this dog and cat have to be scratched, don't talk about this wolf!" ”
When the other two heard their second senior brother say such a thing, they couldn't help but help their foreheads. The wolves in this Xinjiang can be compared with ordinary cats and dogs, if only one family has such a thing, it is actually nothing, but many families are indeed worth pondering, and the senior brother is now asking about this matter with burning eyebrows, it is not simple!
The Third Elder walked up to the Great Elder and whispered, "Senior Brother, don't worry, did you sense something?" The Great Elder shook his head with a headache and said, "No, it's the snow wolf who has been a little anxious lately. I think something might be going on, but it's not something you or I can perceive. ”
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, the frontier was under the management of these four people, and there should be nothing to escape their eyes, but now something has happened that they don't know, which is very serious. The four elders thought that it might be that a few years had passed since the time for the goddess to worship the heavens, and the energy of the heavenly pillars had decreased, which caused them to be unable to bring comfort to these divine objects.
Although most of the people living in the frontier are ordinary people, the grass and trees here are not ordinary, and they are basically sacred objects. Others think this explanation is also clear, after all, it is not that such a thing has never happened.
Thinking that at the beginning, Shu Qian left the frontier after completing the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, and since then she has not heard from her, and several elders did not panic in the first few days, but then the time became longer and longer. Shu Qian did not write back to the frontier within the stipulated time, and the elders understood the seriousness of the situation. After a few years, one day the wolves on the frontier were occasionally restless, and some trees began to wither for no reason.
They understood that this was due to the lack of energy of the Heavenly Pillar, but they could not tell all the people in the frontier about this matter, which would cause panic, and what would happen next would be far more serious than the lack of energy of the Heavenly Pillar. Since then, the four of them have taken turns to inject energy into the pillar every day, and they can drag on for a day. But this was not always the solution, and their strength was exhausted one day, but a miracle came at that time.
On the way back from the Great Elder injecting energy into the Heavenly Pillar, he was at a loss, but he saw Bilan. Bilan was right under his nose, resurrecting the flowers and plants that were about to wither on the side of the road. At that time, the Great Elder was overjoyed, and immediately took Bi Lan back to the Frontier Hall. He took a lot of dying grass and trees, and led a weak wolf into the hall.
The grass and the wolf were right in front of the Great Elder's eyes, and Bilan's men came to life. The Great Elder thought that Bi Lan was the person he was looking for, a new generation of goddesses. In fact, what he didn't know was that the reason why Bilan was able to do all of this was because she had already learned to use the power of the goddess, and she urged her own power to bring the grass and the wolf back to life. In fact, the reason why goddesses can be called goddesses is because they are born with these divine objects, and they don't need to urge them to awaken them at all.
The reason why the Great Elder decided that Bi Lan was a goddess was because he firmly believed that no one would use the power of a goddess, except for those who were already goddesses, those who had been trained by goddesses before had already passed away, and Shu Qian couldn't find it now, so he thought that Bi Lan's ability must be innate. However, he ignored the mistake of electing a goddess back then, and that mistake was the leader of the Blood Lotus Sect.
After Bilan was trained, he began to worship the heavens. Although the Great Elder was also very apprehensive at first, because it was not a goddess selected and cultivated by the previous goddess, Bi Lan was the first. Although the remaining three elders dissuaded him from doing so. But the situation on the frontier was imminent, and Shu Qian couldn't find it, so he had to bite the bullet.
He didn't care about using up his energy to maintain the Heavenly Pillar, but when the four of them ran out of energy. They are relieved, but the suffering of the frontier people has only just begun! As the Great Elder, he must have his own decision on this matter, and he cannot hesitate any longer.
It's a pity, in fact, Tianzhu is not like this at all because Shu Qian disappeared and did not choose a candidate, everything is the means of the Blood Lotus Sect Master. The elder could inject energy into it, and so could the Natural Blood Lotus Sect Master, and she united her own people to suppress the flow of energy from the Heavenly Pillar. In fact, this is like a clogged water pipe, how can it nourish the gods of the frontier if it can't flow out?
With the lessons learned before, the Great Elder thought that he should go to Bi Lan and ask her, the goddess, to take a look at the situation of the Heavenly Pillar and see if all the abnormalities were caused by this reason. When he found Bilan, Bilan felt very embarrassed, she naturally knew that everything was caused by the rotation of the sundial, and it had nothing to do with the pillar of heaven at all. But she had no choice but to agree, but her head was spinning rapidly, how to help the sect leader prevaricate.
However, people are not as good as heaven, and Bi Lan doesn't need to investigate directly after tonight.
Si Kouxi and his entourage hurriedly arrived at the camp on the night of the third day, Si Kouzhan and Yue Qunben were still chatting in the camp, but they didn't expect someone to rush in and report that the emperor of the Jianian Dynasty and Tengxiao Kingdom outside was coming. This will be unaffected by the emperor's order, and suddenly there is a large group of people who claim to be the emperor or two! The soldiers immediately ran in to report it, and Yue Qun and Si Kou Zhan naturally knew that this was for sure.
The two hurriedly ran back to greet the two emperors, Si Kouxi looked at his father and General Yue who ran out of a tent, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "These two people have been friends for the past two days?" ”
Yue Qun and Si Kou Zhan planned to salute, but Jin Shen didn't think there was any need to make too much noise at night, so he stopped them, and the group planned to go directly into the camp. But just as everyone was about to raise their feet and enter the tent, a sad wolf howl began.
This voice immediately aroused everyone's vigilance, and Si Kouxi and his party also stopped their steps and turned to look at the dense forest in the distance. Lan Jing said in a serious voice: "Tonight, immediately pull out the camp and advance to five kilometers. "Everyone is worried that there will be a war tonight, after all, the wolves are not humans, they don't care sooner or later.
Siren thought that the reason why the wolves suddenly let out a group wolf howl was probably because Si Kouxi and his party were getting closer and closer to the frontier, and the echo between them and the sundial was getting stronger and stronger, which naturally affected the wolves.
General Si Kou first led 20,000 soldiers and horses to a distance of five kilometers, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were led by Yue Qun to pack their bags and set off immediately.
Borderland······
Suddenly, the sudden howl of the wolves frightened everyone to wake up, and the frontier, which had been silent, was immediately brightly lit. The four elders also rushed out of their bedrooms and gathered in the council hall. They knew at this moment that they couldn't wait. Suddenly, a disciple outside said, "Elder! Oh no, the armies of the Tengxiao Kingdom and the Jianian Dynasty have advanced another five kilometers! ”
This can be regarded as a situation of internal and external troubles, the wolves inside howl for unknown reasons, and the army outside is suddenly approaching. However, the Great Elder was calm at this time, and he felt that the sudden approach of the army must have something to do with the wolf howl tonight. A few days ago, people didn't move at all, but today they are coming? There must be a problem with this, and the top priority is to find out what is going on inside the frontier.
Several elders glanced at each other, as if they had reached a consensus. The second elder sighed first, then turned around and left, and everyone immediately followed. The four of them came to a dark attic with a dark blue mirror hanging in the center, which they preferred to call the Eye of the Sky.
With the four elders working together, this mirror can reveal any scene they want to see anywhere in the world. It had been more than ten years since they last opened this mirror, and at that time, they had to open this mirror in order to find Shu Qian's whereabouts, but unfortunately they found nothing.
There is a price for this mirror to be opened, and once it is opened, the four of them need to rest well to regain their energy. They won't open it until they have to, and now it's a last resort. So they made up their minds to take a look. I don't know if I don't see it, I was shocked when I saw it, the sundial plate in front of the Blood Lotus Sect was actually turning.
Several people were facing a great enemy at the moment, and the Great Elder immediately ran back to his room to find a harp. That piano can control all the snow wolves, and the snow wolves will call the wolves according to the instructions. The most important thing right now is to keep the wolves out of the pack and keep them from being too affected by the sundial. It's a pity that everything seems to be a step too late, the piano is gone, the snow wolf is gone, and the goddess is nowhere to be found.
The Great Elder almost couldn't stand still, leaned on the table and said sadly: "The armies of the two countries must know that something big will happen on the frontier before they call for the army to come. That woman from the Blood Lotus Sect Leader is going to destroy the frontier! The sundial is restarted, everything is unknown, if the catastrophe of a thousand years ago is repeated, how many people will survive on the frontier? ”
The four elders felt that now was not the time to be sad, since they already knew about the conspiracy of the Blood Lotus Sect Master, they should rush to the Blood Lotus Sect to stop her, or stop those who were destined to do so!
