Chapter 42: The Temple of the Divine Clouds
The defenders behind saw the man waving his hand, thinking that the man might be in some hurry, but did not catch up.
Yu Qingling dragged the corpse to a corner, and made sure that the defenders behind him could no longer see it, so he slammed the corpse to the ground and moved his tired wrist.
Yu Qingling looked up at the night when she couldn't see her fingers. The stars that had gathered together a long time ago had now dispersed a little. Yu Qingling walked along the dense place of stars in the sky. Soon he found Yunhe sitting on the highest roof in the vicinity.
Yu Qingling pointed to the ground on her toes and rose into the air, and her black clothes blended well with the night.
Yunhe just tilted his head and smiled, and said in a very soft voice, "You came a little slower than I thought."
Yu Qingling pointed to the stars scattered in the sky and was very dissatisfied: "Look, the stars are scattered one here and one there, I've been looking for it for a long time."
Yunhe looked up at the night: "Yes, scattered." He gathered his clothes: "I've been waiting for you here for a long time, the wind here is so strong, I'm about to freeze to death." As he spoke, Yunhe had already wrapped his hands around Yu Qingling, trying to find some warmth.
Yu Qingling felt the warm and powerful arms, her small body suddenly trembled, and her two hands also hugged Yunhe's waist: "Is it warmer like this?"
Yunhe nodded, but he still refused to let go of Yu Qingling, and Yunhe asked in a low voice, "Did anyone find out along the way?"
"There is one, but it has been killed by me, don't worry, I didn't alarm others." Yu Qingling also replied in a low voice: "Now all 50,000 soldiers have gathered in the city, waiting for the order to be issued."
Yunhe let go of Yu Qingling, put his hand on his cheek and thought for a while: "I've seen it, although there are a lot of patrol troops on this road, but the number of people in each team is not much, if you bump into it, you must get rid of them as soon as possible." Don't leave a single mouth alive. ”
"Understood." Yu Qingling replied dryly.
Yunhe looked up at the hazy moonlight, and there was another burst of contemplation.
"Action." The two words came out of Yunhe's mouth so lightly. But I didn't know that these two words made this quiet night for a long time start turmoil and unrest.
Yu Qingling and Yunhe jumped down from the tower and went to gather with 50,000 soldiers.
Yunhe carefully assigned tasks to each of them, emphasizing the routes to and from them many times.
Yu Qingling laughed out loud on the side. Yunhe turned his head to look at her suspiciously.
Yu Qingling continued to cover her mouth and chuckled: "They are all elite soldiers, and the route is compromised, there is no need to emphasize it at all, you look down on them too much."
Yun He looked up at the indifferent looks of the soldiers in front of him, and said with a wry smile: "Everyone, success or failure is a battle here." ”
Yu Qingling added: "This is not only about the Protoss, but also about the thousands of people who are like water, and the prosperity of the Yudu is fighting here."
Yu Qingling's words greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers. One by one, they were in high spirits, lowered their voices and shouted: "Rush, rush, rush."
For a time, 50,000 men in coarse cotton clothes held swords, bows, and spears in their hands. The group surrounded the lively and prosperous Shengjing City.
The patrols stopped to watch, but they didn't know what was going on or what to do.
They couldn't believe that Shengjing Street, which had always been peaceful and prosperous, would be attacked.
At first, the patrolmen thought that this was a ruffian hooligan robbing a house, but when they looked back, they found that there were more and more people, except for the coarse linen clothes on their bodies, everyone had very good equipment in their hands, and the people of the brigade moved neatly, without a trace of redundancy.
It was only then that the patrolmen realized that this group of people dressed in civilian clothes but armed with sophisticated weapons could threaten the whole of Shengjing.
The patrolmen were confused for a while, and the soles of their smarter feet were greased and rushed back to report the news. Most of the soldiers watched in amazement, until a sharp weapon pierced their chests and cut off their heads, and then they spat out a few words with blood in their mouths: "Help!" After saying that, he fell straight down.
Of course, the fast patrols could not escape the swords of the large number of royal soldiers.
That night, the streets of Shengjing were stained red with blood.
The 50,000 elite royal army led by Xuan Yu searched every corner closely. See if there is still a soldier's mouth left.
They easily killed the patrols who didn't resist at all, and didn't even know what was going on.
While shrinking the encirclement to the perimeter of the Divine Cloud Hall of the Protoss, the entire Divine Cloud Hall was encircled. The royal army was tightly defended, and it was impossible for even a fly to fly into the entire Shenyun Temple.
Yun He couldn't help but sigh: "The royal army is really as terrifying as rumored, and I am convinced."
Of course, Yu Qingling knew that Yunhe was convincing not only in the recent Battle of Qishui, but also in the Battle of Xihe. At that time, the two were only in their teens, but they were the supreme commanders in the Xihe Campaign, which has been passed down through the ages.
Fate always makes people marvel at its coincidence.
Yu Qingling and Yunhe walked side by side into the Divine Cloud Temple.
Yu Qingling stood peacefully in the night in the Shenyun Temple, her expression was serious, and her eyes were faintly uneasy.
The two of them approached the vicinity of the Divine Cloud Temple, and Xuan Yu, who was in charge of inspection in the royal army, greeted them.
She solemnly and respectfully gave a large military salute: "Yunhe Divine Monarch, His Highness Ling."
Yu Qingling asked eagerly, "How is the situation?"
Xuanyu replied solemnly: "Back to Your Highness, there is no movement in the Shenyun Palace, everything is as usual."
"Xuanyu, you did a good job today." The words of praise should not have been said in such a serious atmosphere, and the performance of Xuanyu tonight really amazed Yu Qingling.
Xuanyu didn't show joy on his face, but just stood still and gave a military salute: "Your Highness has won the award, this is the duty of your subordinates."
Yu Qingling nodded and patted her on the shoulder. Together with Yunhe, he walked into the ancient and mysterious Shenyun Temple.
According to legend, there is only one race in the ancient continent, and the Protoss is the oldest race in history.
The Divine Cloud Temple can be described as a symbol of the heyday of the Protoss, and it has always stood elegantly and mysteriously at the very top of the continent. It has gone through thousands of years and is still standing.
The Protoss Yun Clan has ruled the continent for hundreds of years. Today's Protoss Yun Clan is out of luck, and it is not as good as the next generation. The Yu Clan and the Human Race, which had always been under the Protoss, found an opportunity to seize nearly two-thirds of the land of the Protoss, and each became a king.
The mainland has divided the continent into three points, resulting in the current situation.
After the Yu and Terrans established their own territories, the lords were very obsessed with the construction of the palace. The Feather Palace of the Feather Clan, the Bauhinia City of the Terran Clan.
Although they are all splendid and magnificent palaces, they have never been able to surpass that Divine Cloud Temple.
Yu Qingling is now walking on the hard stone bricks of the palace, she feels that every step she takes is history, and no one knows how much blood and tears this palace has experienced.
Yu Qingling couldn't help but stand up, and walked into this palace with high respect for history and martyrs.
Although the Shenyun Hall is old, there is no dilapidated appearance in the interior, and large marble slabs are regularly spread on the ground, clean and shiny.
The interior of the Shenyun Hall is very simple and clean, very different from the golden splendor of the Yuhuang Palace, where you can not find walls made of glittering gold, no precious stones dotting the roof, and not even a precious calligraphy and painting.
The spacious hall is clean and very serious and mysterious. Yu Qingling always felt that this feeling was similar to the temperament of Yunhe.
Yu Qingling recalled the Yu Imperial Palace inlaid with gold and silver everywhere, and she only felt that it was unbearable.
Yunhe stood in front and looked at Yu Qingling stunned, and couldn't help but stop and watch, with a smile on his face.
Quietly walked over and took Yu Qingling's hand: "Don't look at it, we still have business."
Only then did Yu Qingling realize that she had stopped unconsciously. "Shenyun Temple, very much like you." Yu Qingling said what was in her heart coldly.
Yunhe disagreed: "This old guy looks like me?"
Yu Qingling nodded and said, "It's very similar in temperament." ”
Yunhe also looked around a few times: "I heard the history of the Shenyun Temple when I was a child, and I was thinking that it was amazing that a house could be preserved intact for so long, so I took a hoe every day and wanted to remove the stone bricks on the wall to try if this ancient palace was really a heavenly palace as rumored, a palace that would never fall."
Yu Qingling listened with interest, and was talking about important places, but Yunhe suddenly stopped, Yu Qingling raised her head, looked at Yunhe's suddenly dim eyes, and asked, "Did you finally remove it?"
"Finally......" Yunhe whispered: "Then I was discovered by my father, and my father punished me, but Yunluan stood up and defended my father on my behalf."
Yunhe suddenly realized that he and Yunluan were also relatives whose blood was thicker than water when they were children, how did it come to the point of life and death in just a few years?
Yu Qingling gently patted him on the shoulder: "In this situation, you must be very sad, if you stop now, it may be too late." Being a ranger should be more suitable for you. Whatever you choose, I'll be with you. ”
Yun He's heart shook, and he could feel that the fortress he had built in his heart for so long had become turbulent and was facing the danger of collapse.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, accompanied by the crisp collision of clothes and jewelry, and slowly approached the two.
Yu Qingling and Yunhe could both hear that it was a woman's footsteps.
Yun He's heart suddenly flashed with an ominous premonition, and he subconsciously protected Yu Qingling behind him.
A beautiful woman wearing a white embroidered phoenix court dress, a glass jewel, and a blue crown on her head appeared in front of the two.
She held a fan in her hand to half-cover her face, dressed gorgeously but looked elegant and pleasant.
Yu Qingling frowned slightly when she saw the person coming, this woman's eyes were very similar to Yunhe. She guessed Yun Luan's identity at a glance.
She asked in Yunhe's ear, "She is your sister, Emperor Yunluan?"
Yun He nodded, quietly watching Yun Luan approach him step by step.
Yun Luan walked to Yun He's side and grabbed Yun He's arm as intimately as he did when he was a child. put down the fan from his face, revealing a sweet smile: "Brother is back, Yunluan has really been waiting for you for a long time."
Yun Luan directly ignored Yu Qingling, and took Yun He's arm and walked forward: "Brother, come with me, I have prepared a very rich dinner for you."
At this time, Yun Luan's other hand had already touched a hairpin on his head.
Yun Luan led Yun He to the table and let go of the hand holding Yun He.
She glanced at the hairpin in her hand, and then at Yunhe, who was already sitting next to the table, and her eyes flashed with deep sadness, but she quickly regained her sweet smile.
She hid the hairpin with the sharp blade in the palm of her hand, and pressed towards Yunhe step by step.
Yun Luan sat down beside Yun He.
In an instant, Yun Luan quickly raised the hairpin in his hand and stabbed it towards Yun He's chest.
Yun Luan's move was very fast, even Yun He didn't notice it at all, and when he saw it clearly, a cold light had flashed on his chest.
He subconsciously closed his eyes.
