Chapter 63: The Daughter of Shenhai
Bai Yin and Bai Xian didn't stop, their shuttle swords continued to stab out, and plunged into the hearts of the two divine fire soldiers. Seeing this, King Chu Ling raised his hand and waved, and the heads of Bai Yin and Bai Xian fell to the ground, and two green nine spiritual qi came out of their broken necks and returned to the palm of King Chu Ling. King Chu Ling came to the approach of the two Divine Fire Soldiers with heavy steps, and raised his trembling hand to touch the cheeks of the first Divine Fire Soldier.
"Strike the enemy!" King Chu Ling shouted, and as soon as his fingers touched it, the Divine Flame Soldier's whole body cracked, turning into a ball of powder, and scattered on the ground. King Chu Ling was so frightened that he was helpless, and immediately knelt on the ground, holding those black particles with trembling hands. The particles were fine and smooth, flowing through the fingers of King Chu Ling. King Chu Ling hurriedly got up and walked towards the other Divine Fire Soldier, he walked closer, but he didn't dare to reach out and touch it. King Chu Ling was close to the Divine Fire Soldier, and he didn't dare to breathe, for fear of being shocked by something, and the Divine Fire Soldier in front of him would change his voice again.
"Lu'er!" King Chu Ling shed tears. As a powerful King of Chu Ling, who made the princes of the world frightened, He Ling, who once destroyed Chen Cai, served Qilu, and was on an equal footing with the powerful Jin Kingdom, He Lingwang had shed tears, but this time for his son, he cried, he was really sad.
A sword qi rushed in, and the divine fire soldier turned into ashes in an instant, and King Chu Ling hurriedly grabbed it with his hands, but he didn't catch anything, and everything in front of him passed away from his own hands.
It turned out that those dark green qi and green armored warriors were the Nine Spirit Pawns secretly released by King Chu Ling, and he trapped Fei Wuji and wanted to kill him with one blow. Unexpectedly, among the divine fire soldiers brought by Fei Wuji, there were people exactly the same as Prince Lu and Gongzi to defeat the enemy, this was done by Fei Wuji on purpose, that is, he wanted to take advantage of King Chu Ling's negligence to kill him, but he didn't expect to be destroyed by Bai Yin and Bai Xian. When King Chu Ling saw the same divine fire soldiers as Prince Lu and Gongzi, he aroused his love for his son. When killing Bai Yin and Bai Xian, retracting the Nine Spirit Qi inevitably weakened the Nine Spirit Pawns, so that Fei Wuji struggled to break out of the siege of the Nine Spirit Pawns. That sword qi was released when Fei Wuji rushed out, intending to kill King Chu Ling, but he didn't expect to hit that divine fire soldier.
After fighting the Nine Spirit Pawns, Fei Wuji learned its power, and when he escaped, there was not much of the clothes left on his body. And King Chu Ling saw that his son was in vain, and his heart was extremely angry, he roared wildly, and the Nine Spirit Pawn rose up angrily, chasing after Fei Wuji, and there was a great tendency that he would never give up until he was killed.
Fei Wuji fled in embarrassment, during which he summoned the Divine Fire Soldier several times to stop the Nine Spirit Soldiers, but he didn't expect the Divine Fire Soldiers to have no power to fight back, as soon as the Nine Spirit Soldiers' weapons came into contact with the Divine Fire Soldiers, the Divine Fire Soldiers were shattered and died invisibly. Fei Wuji was taken aback, and said in his heart: What kind of soldier is this, even the Divine Fire Soldier is not their opponent. Fei Wuji hurriedly fled the same way, and soon fled to the camp of King Chu Ling before, where there were nearly a thousand soldiers loyal to King Chu Ling, they saw Fei Wuji running over, embarrassed, those soldiers knew that Fei Wuji was defeated by King Chu Ling, so they stepped forward to intercept him. Seeing this, Fei Wuji didn't stop, and flew straight over the heads of those soldiers. Pity these loyal soldiers, before they came to their senses, the Nine Spirit Pawns behind them arrived, and with a burst of wailing, those soldiers turned into powder.
Fei Wuji glanced back as he fled, and the tragic situation was indescribable. After killing those Chu soldiers, Jiu Lingshu chased after Fei Wuji. Fei Wuji didn't dare to stay and continue to flee south, the speed was so fast that it was a hundred miles away in the blink of an eye. When Fei Wuji passed a fork in the road, he caught a glimpse of a town near the left, which was in the middle of the day, with people coming and going, bustling, and lively. Fei Wuji had a trick in his mind, he had already seen that where the dark green pursuers had passed, no matter whether people or animals, had survived, so Fei Wuji turned around and ran towards the town.
When the Nine Spirit Pawns arrived at the entrance of the town, they suddenly stopped, and even so, the Nine Spirit Qi on their bodies rushed into the street of the town not far away, and the people on the street were covered by the Nine Spirit Qi and died in an instant. The other people had never seen such a monster, they all froze in place, and suddenly one person screamed, and those people came back to their senses, and fled in all directions in horror, Fei Wuji took advantage of the chaos to stun a few people, snatched a few clothes, and fled in the crowd.
For some reason, the Nine Spirit Pawns began to slowly dissipate and retreat back to the original path. After a while, a few bold men from the town came out, and when they saw that the danger was over, they beckoned to everyone, carried away the corpses, and the market began to be lively again.
King Chu Ling withdrew the Nine Spirit Pawn, sighed, and silently said to himself: "I have killed too many people, and it is the heavens who are punishing me." After speaking, King Chu Ling's physical strength was exhausted, coupled with excessive sadness, he fainted to the ground.
I don't know how long it took.
"Your Majesty, you're awake."
King Chu Ling opened his eyes and found himself lying on a bed with a blanket covering his body. "Who are you and where am I?" King Chu Ling looked at a middle-aged man in front of him.
The man seemed to remember something, and immediately took two steps back and knelt down: "King, I'm Shenhai." ”
"Shenhai?"
"Yes, it's Shen Wuyu's son."
"Shen Wuyu? I almost forgot. What is this place? ”
"This is my home. King, it's safe here, so you can live with confidence. ”
"I didn't expect that." King Chu Ling smiled bitterly: "It seems that there are still people in the world who remember me." ”
"When my father was alive, he was favored by the king, and he contradicted the king several times, but you didn't blame him, and my Shen family remembered the king's kindness."
"Shen Wuyu is a good person, if I had listened to his advice, I wouldn't have ended up where I am today."
"King, don't be too sad, you live here first, maybe your younger brothers will find out one day and know that they are wrong, and they will welcome you back to Yingdu."
"Don't be funny, it's too late for them to kill me."
“......”
"Shenhai, let me ask you, do you know why I'm so sad?"
"Three younger brothers rebelled?"
"No, that's just a disappointment for me."
"Lost the country?"
"No, if I go back to Yingdu, I will still be the king of Chu."
"Why is that?"
"It's the loss of my son. My son was extremely brave in defeating the enemy, he was the first warrior of the Chu State, and he died in front of the battle, because I was too pampered to him, and he should not have been allowed to attack Cai Cheng alone. To this day, I still don't understand how the infinite circulation of lifeforms that my son defeated was cracked, and no one in the world knows the secret except me, even Lingji knows nothing about it. But my Lu'er ......" King Chu Ling couldn't speak anymore and cried.
"Don't be sad, the king, I will definitely kill Fei Wuji and avenge the two sons."
"I've fought Fei Wuji, and he doesn't have the ability to kill the enemy."
"And who would it be?"
"A man named Zhan Wuxi."
"I've heard of this person, the first time he appeared, he overwhelmed all the heroes in the defense of the country, and he was ......"
"For the first time, we defeated the striker."
Shen Hai was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
King Chu Ling continued: "It's a pity that my Lu'er, he was killed by Fei Wuji, I must kill Fei Wuji to avenge my Lu'er, and that Zhan Wuxian, I can't spare him." ”
"King, don't worry, I, Shenhai, will definitely share my worries for the king and help the king kill Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji."
"Shenhai, I know you're a good person, but now you know why I'm so sad."
"It's the loss of your son."
"Yes, when I lost my son, I felt that I had lost everything, even if it was the point of owning the world, I felt that I was alive as if I was dead."
"Don't be too sad, my lord, I'll gather the assassins, secretly investigate the whereabouts of Fei Wuji and Zhan Wuxian, and assassinate them." After Shen Hai finished speaking, he said to the door again: "Come in." ”
At this time, the curtain of the door was raised, and two young girls, about sixteen or seventeen years old, looked the same, and their faces were childish, they were twin sisters. The big ones wore light red shirts, the small ones wore lilac tunics, tied with ribbons around their waists, tight and neat, their hair was shawl, their faces were like beautiful jade, and each of them held a short sword in their hands, which looked very heroic.
"It's so rude!" Shen Hai said sternly: "How can you bring weapons when you come to see the king, don't put them away quickly." ”
"Yes, father."
"These are my two daughters, Ah Zhu and Ah Zi, from today onwards, the two of them will be waiting for you, if you need anything, just tell the two of them."
"I don't need anything now, I'm tired, you all go out."
"Yes." Shen Hai and his two daughters exited the house. "Ah Zhu, Ah Zi, you two must always protect the king, even if you die, you can't let the king be hurt at all, I'm worried that there will be assassins to assassinate the king."
"Father, rest assured, we will swear to protect the king's safety and never let the king be harmed at all."
"Now the king's only wish is to kill Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji, these days I will go out to hire assassins to assassinate Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji, I am not here, you must be careful and vigilant."
"It's the father." Ah Zhu said: "But I heard that Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji are both famous swordsmen, how can my father assassinate them?" ”
"I also know that their martial arts are extremely high, but it is easy to dodge with open guns and difficult to defend against dark arrows, so I want to assassinate them."
"Father should be careful, too."
King Chu Ling had not eaten or drunk at Shenhai's house for three days, and Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were so anxious that they didn't know what to do, they brought food to King Chu Ling every day, and King Chu Ling knocked over the food every time, scolding them and telling them not to bother themselves. Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were very worried, afraid that their father would come back and find out that they had not taken good care of King Chu Ling and blame them.
This time, the two came to deliver the meal again, and when they arrived at the door, Ah Zhu's eyes rolled and said to Ah Zi: "I have a way, I'll watch me later." ”
"Great King, my father just sent a letter, he said that he found a ranger named Mo, it is said that he is a disciple of the Xiyin Sage, this person's martial arts are extremely high, and his swordsmanship is above that called Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji, killing the two of them is just around the corner. If you don't eat something, it would be a pity if one day my father brought Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji's heads, and you couldn't see them. ”
King Chu Ling turned his head and glared at them, and Ah Zhu and Ah Zi immediately shuddered: "Little kid, what do you know!" King Chu Ling slowly regained his composure: "Put down the food, you guys go out." ”
The two sisters came out and climbed a mulberry tree. Ah Zi asked Ah Zhu: "Sister, how do you know that my father found a ranger named Mo to assassinate Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji, why haven't I heard of it?" ”
"My silly sister, I'm lying to the king."
"Sister, you ......"
"Shh......h Didn't you see the king telling us to put the food down? ”
Ah Zi smiled and nodded.
At this time, the golden wuxi is hidden, the bright moon is rising in the east, and the stars are gradually increasing. Tonight was surprisingly quiet, except for the whispers of Ah Zhu and Ah Zi sisters, no other sound could be heard. The two sisters were idle, looking at the bright moon in the east in a daze, and suddenly, a few bright lights appeared from the bright moon, like lightning, shooting towards the room where King Chu Ling was. When two points touched the roof tile and penetrated it, the room immediately burst into flames, and flames overflowed and erupted from the window. Seeing this, Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were shocked and their eyes widened, and they were at a loss for a while.
"King!" Azhu reacted first. I saw the two girls jumping off the mulberry tree, facing the raging fire, they did not hesitate, broke the door and rushed into the room, and immediately felt that the whole body was hot and unbearable, and their clothes and hair were all burned immediately. Ah Zhu and Ah Zi endured the pain and held their breath, and searched for the location of King Chu Ling in the house, but found nothing. Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were very anxious, and they felt that their whole bodies were wrapped in a cool air, and suddenly the heat subsided, and then their bodies were wrapped in that cool air and rushed out of the sea of fire, landing on a clearing not far away. At this time, although Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were not hurt much, most of the clothes and hair on their bodies had been burned, and only a few pieces of scattered silk cloth covered their shame, and the children did not care too much about this, because they had already seen that King Chu Ling was unscathed.
"This is no longer a place to stay, so let's go."
"We don't leave, we want to protect the king."
King Chu Ling shook his head and walked out.
"No one is allowed to leave." Before the words fell, dozens of black-clothed people flew down from the sky, surrounding King Chu Ling, Ah Zhu, and Ah Zi.
"Divine Flame, I don't want to kill you." King Chu Ling said lightly.
Those men in black felt that there was no need to hide it anymore, so they ripped off the black clothes on their bodies, revealing the armor on their bodies. King Chu Ling didn't bother to look at them and continued to walk out. A few fires shot out, followed by the continuous sound of "Dangdang ......" gold and iron collision, sparks splashed everywhere, Ah Zhu and Ah Zi used short swords to block the divine rockets shot by the divine fire soldiers towards King Chu Ling, and then the second daughter fought fiercely with several divine fire soldiers who were the first to approach King Chu Ling. In less than ten rounds, Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were like spiritual snakes, swimming a few laps among those Divine Fire Soldiers, and then stood back on both sides of King Chu Ling, while those Divine Fire Soldiers froze in place and remained motionless. Seeing this, the rest of the Divine Fire soldiers exchanged glances with each other, and all of them rushed over in a swarm.
On the third day, Shen Hai found King Chu Ling on a nearby mountain, and he was sitting on a stone looking at a big tree not far away. The trunk of the tree was as thick as a water tank, only more than a man tall, the bark was mottled and fell a lot, the branches were twisted and deformed, and most of the leaves on it had fallen off, like countless people struggling with their arms stretched out and trying to get out of this endless trouble. The dead leaves on the ground were covered in several thick layers, and the bottom layer had merged with the soil on the ground, and the dead leaves on the trees were still falling from time to time, falling gently on them.
"King, I've finally found you." When Shen Hai saw King Chu Ling, the tiredness on his face eased a lot: "When I came home last night, I saw that the house was in a mess, and there were many corpses of Divine Fire Soldiers, but I didn't find the king, I expected that the king must be fine, and he must be nearby, and sure enough, I found the king here." ”
"What about Ah Zhu and Ah Zi?"
"They're dead."
"You have raised two good daughters."
"It's their honor to die for the king."
King Chu Ling got up, walked under the tree, and bent down to pick up a leaf. King Chu Ling looked at this withered yellow leaf, thoughtfully, he felt that he was like the tree in front of him, the destiny of heaven had come to an end, and everything in it would eventually fall.
"Have you found Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji?"
"Shenhai is incompetent, since the battle of Caicheng, Zhan Wuxian has said goodbye to his son and abandoned his illness, and he is nowhere to be found, I have sent people to inquire around, and I have not found his whereabouts. As for Fei Wuji, after he was defeated by the king last time, it is said that he went back to see Gongzi Qiji, and then no one saw him again. I have sent a number of assassins into the camp of Childe's abandonment, and as soon as I find any trace of Childe's abandonment, I will immediately report to the king and assassinate him. Seeing that King Chu Ling did not speak, Shen Hai continued: "There is also a prince who abandons illness, as long as the king orders it, I will ......."
"My brother is fine." King Chu Ling interrupted Shen Hai without waiting for him to finish speaking, and there was some anger in his tone.
Shen Hai was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Okay, I heard that Gongzi abandoned the disease and killed Gongzi Bi and Gongzi Heihu, but now he has not entered Yingdu, it is estimated that he is afraid of the king......"
King Chu Ling chuckled: "Abandoning the disease is still very similar to me, ruthless enough." ”
"King, it's better to rush back to Yingdu now, as long as you go back, those thieves will be scared, and the people of Yingdu will still support you, you are still the king of Chu."
"What's the use of that?" King Chu Ling sighed: "My sons are dead, who will inherit my throne in the future?" It's better to give up the sickness and sit. ”
Shen Hai did not speak.
"My only wish now is to kill Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji."
"Don't worry, I will find those two people as soon as possible."
"Go ahead, I want to be alone for a while."
"King, it's cool on the mountain, let's go back to my house."
"Your place of residence is already known to the Divine Flames, and they will go back when I go back. I don't want anyone to die for me anymore. ”
"Since the king doesn't want to go back, I still have a place to live in this mountain, which is secluded and quiet, and no one will disturb me."
King Chu Ling nodded.
More than ten days passed, Shen Hai saw that King Chu Ling was depressed, did not think about tea and dinner, and spent his days in torment every day, he was very worried in his heart, and he did not dare to give too much advice, always thinking about how to make King Chu Ling transfer the pain of sorrow.
On this day, Shenhai came to see King Chu Ling again. As soon as Shenhai entered the door, King Chu Ling asked, "Have you found out the news of Zhan Wuxian and Fei Wuji?" "This is what King Chu Ling has said the most in the past few days.
"Not yet." Shen Hai said: "There is one thing that the king might as well listen to. ”
King Chu Ling didn't speak, he was not interested in anything but revenge now.
Shen Hai continued: "Three years ago, a flying stone fell from the sky, knocked down a mountain, and crushed the flying stone, and I heard that the nearby villagers dug up the flying stone. This Flying Stone from the Outer Sky must not be a mortal thing, I inquired, Fei Wuji inquired about this matter three years ago, and sent someone to find it, since this Flying Stone from the Outer Heaven has appeared, I think Fei Wuji will definitely ......"
"Let's take a look, too."
Shen Hai agreed, retreated, prepared the carriage and horses, and went to the land of flying stones that day.
