Chapter 7: It's on Fire
It was the first time for Tong Xi to come to this kind of place.
The atmosphere in the hall is depressing, eerie and terrifying, although I don't know the specific sacrificial steps, but think about how cruel it will be to think that the big living people will die on those bronze pillars?
Tong Xi became more and more puzzled, what is this so-called god enshrined in the Great Moon Kingdom, and why does it have to be sacrificed by living people?
The girl called Squeak in the customer service in the system also said that this story was made up by herself, which is really nonsense, and she is almost blindfolded now, and she is making up a fart!
It's useless to think too much, and the first thing to do now is how to escape this catastrophe.
I don't know what Ji Huan's girl is doing, Tong Xi is not a person who is waiting for death, if he destroys this sacrifice according to Yehe, he will have a chance to live, then he must first familiarize himself with the situation here.
He looked left and right, then lifted his steps and cautiously walked inside.
On the south side of Ji Huan's going, Tong Xi naturally had to go back and forth, and when he walked to the side of the curtain, he found that there was still a picture scroll hanging on the wall behind the curtain.
In the picture, there is a scene of a war between humans and orcs, and a man in a strange costume, riding a winged horse soaring in the air, and thunder and lightning in his hands shoot at the orcs.
The light in the hall is not very good, and the graphics on the paintings inevitably look a little blurry.
Tong Xi subconsciously took out the fire fold from his arms, which he carried in his arms after getting up in the morning and lighting the candle, but he didn't want to use it at this time.
With the firelight, the images on the picture scroll were more realistic, and Tong Xi's gaze fell on the orc first.
As he thought, the orcs in this time and space looked similar to the orcs in the movie World of Warcraft, tall and mighty, with horns on their heads and fangs in their mouths.
After looking at the orcs, his eyes looked at the gods flying in the air again, and this look didn't matter, Tong Xi suddenly found that the gods were a little similar to himself.
"Huh!"
Tong Xi thought he was dazzled, and couldn't help but lean forward again, but at this moment, a gust of wind blew through, and the flames on the fire fold jumped forward violently, and suddenly jumped onto the picture scroll.
At the moment when the flames were burning, Tong Xi suddenly found that he saw that those scrolls seemed to be painted on a huge face, and under the bright firelight, he could see clearly that it was clearly a ghostly face.
The fire waits for no one, and there is no time for Tong Xi to take a closer look.
The entire Chaotian Palace is made of wood, and the main hall is full of curtains and paper scrolls, and this flame immediately burns, and then under the action of the wind, it quickly spreads to the surroundings.
Tong Xi couldn't help but be stupid, he had thought that this would happen? After being slightly stunned, he threw away the fire in his hand, then turned around and ran, shouting as he ran: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's big thing is not good! It's on fire! Run, run...
Don't care if you will be punished afterwards, setting Chaotian Palace on fire can be regarded as destroying the sacrifice, and if the fire burns out for a while, the fire will definitely be burned, and then it will be even more dead without proof...
It's strange, the fire has already lit up, Tong Xi also shouted, but there was no movement on Ji Huan's side.
Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Tong Xi really wanted to run away, but it was not his character to see death and not save him.
Wei was stunned and quickly ran to the room behind the curtain on the south side, and before he entered, he saw Ji Huan lying on the ground bleeding from his mouth and nose, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
Tong Xi didn't have time to think about it, rushed in and gave Ji Huan a princess hug directly, turned around and rushed out.
Ji Huan's body was soft, and there was a faint smell of vanilla, but Tong Xi just wanted to escape for his life at the moment, so what other thoughts did he have?
In fact, it is useless to have an idea, because he is still disabled.
Chaotian Palace is the tallest building in the Imperial Palace, and if it is on fire here, the entire Imperial Palace can be seen.
Soon, countless noisy voices rushed to this side.
Gonggong Liu and the other eunuchs and palace maids saw the fire, but because of the strict order, none of them dared to rush up to save people, until they saw Tong Xi hugging the empress down, and then rushed over quickly.
At this moment, the fire on Chaotian Palace has become a skyrocketing trend, and some burned coke and other materials continue to fall from the middle of the spiral staircase.
Tong Xi and the others didn't dare to stay at all, and ran to the square outside Chaotian Palace in one breath before stopping.
A palace maid took the fainting empress from Tong Xi's hand, and after carrying it into the car, she directly turned the head of the car and galloped away, obviously taking the empress to see the doctor.
It was only at this time that Tong Xi finally felt tired, and couldn't help but sit on the ground and gasp violently.
Gonggong Liu was also tired, but because he was so fat that he could breathe after walking a few steps, let alone running, sitting next to Tong Xi was like pulling a bellows, and he could only speak after a while.
"W-What's going on? How can there be a fire up there?"
Because there is a strict order, no one can go up to the top floor, so no one told Tong Xi not to bring fire up.
Tong Xi also knew that he was in trouble, so it was even more impossible to tell him about it.
After taking a few breaths, he said, "How did I know that there would be a fire?" As soon as I walked to the end of the stairs, His Majesty asked me to wait, don't it be Your Majesty who is playing with fire, and then accidentally..."
"Oh, my little ancestor, is this also nonsense? Shut your mouth quickly, you don't want to die, we still want to live!"
The big face that turned red because of the violent wheezing was turned miserable white in an instant when Tong Xi said this, looking at his anxious appearance, if it wasn't for his arm to reach, I was afraid that Tong Xi's heart would have been pinched to death.
While the two were talking, countless guards poured out from all directions, but everyone's eyes were attracted by the fire, and no one paid attention to the two people who were tired and paralyzed on the side.
Chaotian Palace has a unique design, after a fire, the firefighters can't go up at all, and can only watch the top of the temple collapse in the fire and have no choice.
The others were talking about the fire in a mess, and Tong Xi, who was frightened at the beginning, couldn't help but think of the images on the scrolls on the walls of Chaotian Palace.
The Protoss who was soaring in the air looked like he had painted it according to himself, and what was the grimace behind the portrait?
In retrospect, the deity's costume and hairstyle are also very special, the hair is short, and the clothes are more inclined to the 21st century.
Could it be that the gods in the mouth of this time and space are actually modern people from their own time and space?
But there are so many people in this world who don't look the same, why is it me? Could it be because I wrote this story?...
There are too many questions, and Tong Xi feels that his head is a little big.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was another rush of footsteps, and then I heard someone outside the crowd shouting: "Where are the miscellaneous eunuchs and Xiao Tongzi of Chaotian Palace?"
The tone is wrong, isn't it that the old lady woke up, recalled what happened, and sent someone to arrest herself?
Thinking of this possibility, Tong Xi's heart couldn't help sinking, he knew that this time he was afraid that it would not be so easy to pass...
