Chapter 14: The Witch King's Abnormality
At the east gate of Qicheng, under the dark red thick city wall, in the afterglow of the setting sun, a young man in a black robe raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and a black python dragon appeared in his sight, which was the team of the return journey of the Wu Palace.
In two months, Zhuo will be sixteen years old, standing here at such a young age, but causing countless people who have entered the city to avoid it, and they don't even dare to look at it.
Even the guards at the door turned a blind eye to him, and they had to watch out for the boy to suddenly turn around, so the guards could respond with a kind and flattering smile in time.
All this is because the black robe on his body is made of silk soaked in black jade powder water into threads, and then directly creates invisible witch spells according to the special texture.
Although he is young, Zhuo at this time is a witch.
The young man still had a calm face, and did not come out of seeing Ah Qing's death with his own eyes.
Even though Kaede had told him that the people of the Blackfish tribe would definitely die, where was there a shocking thing that he could not do about what he saw with his own eyes.
Since that day, he has been studying hard in the Witch Temple, and after two months, he can finally perceive the existence of the aura.
This kind of speed is not considered a genius, it can only be moderate, because it is very simple to perceive the aura, but the difficult thing is to absorb it into the body and be able to use it.
And he had already come to the East City Gate once a month ago, but the teacher did not come back as agreed.
So now in addition to steadily perceiving the feeling of aura, he has to take time to come here almost every day to have a look, what if the teacher comes back one day?
After all, he still feels a little lonely, sometimes he really can't learn, Zhuo also looked for the beggar-like predecessor of the witch palace, but he didn't find it.
Ask the great witch of the witch hall, as soon as everyone heard that it was an old man like a beggar, they made excuses to leave, saying that they had never seen it, lest they avoid it, and Zhuo, who didn't know the reason, didn't ask.
And his luck is very good today, as far as he knows, only the teacher has led the black horse out of the city in the witch hall in the past few months, so it should be the teacher who came back this time, right?
The black horseman's team soon approached the city gate, but Zhuo jumped to see it, but there was no teacher in front of the team.
On the contrary, there seemed to be a big battle at the back of the team, a huge splicing wooden board shrouded in black cloth, pulled by a dozen black dragons, and protected by two teams of black horsemen in the center of the team.
Zhuo was puzzled, and when the team came to his side, the leading black knight grabbed the reins, and only a pair of eyes appeared on his face armor, with a complicated look.
To be honest, he was a little afraid of this young man, he had met once when he first went out of the city, he should be a student of Feng Dawu, but now Feng Dawu ......
Alas...... sighed in his heart, although these black horsemen are also witches, they are more like warriors after all, in case this young man asks, how to answer.
Your teacher betrayed the Witch Palace, and is being hunted down by the entire Qi Dynasty Witch Palace, or even ordered by the old hall master himself?
This is too cruel for a young man who has just entered the witch temple.
But what the leader of the black knights didn't know was that the boy had already experienced something more cruel.
"Senior!" Zhuo saluted respectfully.
"Hmm!"
"What about my teacher, has he come back?"
"Hmm...... Feng Dawu has received another important task, and it will be a few months before he returns, and I don't know the exact time, but he asked me to bring you a message. ”
Zhuo raised his head and his eyes widened.
The leader of the black knight patted the long sword at his waist, and an embarrassed smile that a teenager couldn't see came out from under his visor.
"He hopes that when he comes back, you can become a real witch, the kind of power in power. ”
“...... I'm tired of my predecessors. ”
Zhuo bowed his head and saluted again, then looked at the leader of the black knight and nodded, leading the team towards the city.
He just stood there, his eyes wandering around the line, as if he didn't trust the black rider's words, and thought that the teacher was hiding in some inconspicuous corner.
But Zhuo was disappointed after all, but when the patchwork plank shrouded in black cloth passed by him, he suddenly smelled a smell of wine, and a strange smell of charm.
The smell made his consciousness a little psychedelic, and even had an inexplicable sense of attraction, as if a voice was calling him to lift the black cloth.
And he actually squinted and walked towards the team, but fortunately, the black rider guarding the side woke him up, so there was no accident.
......
......
In the underground secret room inside the witch hall, the giant laurel tree was placed inside, so that with its height, the witch hall could only dig a pit in the ground of the secret room.
If you stand on the floor, it should be just level with the highest point of the canopy.
At this time, a short figure stood in the canopy, and it was the hall master of the Witch Palace.
He didn't appear in the daytime horse team, but returned directly, but even after such a long time, he was still shocked by the words left by the second generation of the Witch King.
Whenever he thought about it carefully, he could always feel deep fear and fear.
"Lu Shu, don't hide it, I smell the gouache on you. The old hall master said without looking back.
In the dark, a woman in her forties and fifties who was still very gorgeous walked out, it was the old bustard of Cuilou, the big witch of Cuilou.
"I've been waiting for you here since I received your news, this is the body of the second generation of Witch King...... Tsk, it's disgusting. Midori covered his nose, his face full of disgust.
The old hall lord bowed: "Yes, but now it's a monster." ”
"I smelled the smell of wine. ”
"I advise you not to drink it, this is not the same as your Cuilou's wine, it will kill people. ”
"Why does Wu Dian want that turtle son of Kaede?"
"For good reason. The old hall master waved his hand, "I can't say it yet." ”
"Hey, what the hell did you find?"
The words fell into the air, but the figure of the old hall master had disappeared.
The main hall of the royal palace
The Witch King, who had just finished his political affairs, was half-lying in his chair, enjoying the queen's squeeze on his shoulder.
Suddenly, a gust of wind rose on the ground, and the Witch King's face changed suddenly: "Shu, you go out first." ”
"Yes, my lord. The queen bowed respectfully and withdrew from the hall.
After she left, the golden gate of the main hall slammed shut, and a ray of black light rose in the center of the main hall, slowly condensing a figure.
"Hall Master!"
The Witch King got up and nodded, and hurriedly stepped off the throne, this old hall master is his grandfather's generation, and his strength is unrivaled, even if he points to his nose and scolds the street, the Witch King does not dare to slack off.
But the strange thing is that the old hall master ignored the politeness of the witch king, and still stood in place with a calm face, and a cockroach ran out of the shabby linen clothes on his body and slipped to the side.
The Witch King's eyelids jumped, and he didn't dare to pay attention to the cockroaches, but asked in a harmonious voice: "What's wrong with the old hall master? ”
"Get out!" the old hall master kicked the witch king's leg, "The witch hall has such a big team entering the city, and you are still pretending to be confused with me?"
"This ...... Of course this king knows, it can be seen that you are like this......"
"Don't talk anything else to me, doll let me ask you, about the second generation of the witch king, what else do you have to hide from the witch palace?"
"No, really no. The usually majestic Witch King was like a child at this time, "Have you found something?"
The Witch King sincerely looked at the old hall master, and there was a hint of silence in the air.
The old hall master froze him for a long time, and finally nodded with a calm face: "Follow me to the Witch Palace." ”
"Uh...... There's still some unfinished business on my side, you go first, and I'll be there later?"
The old hall master was silent for a while, glanced at the witch king, said nothing, turned around and disappeared in place.
"Hoo ......"
The Witch King breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes gradually became gloomy from childishness, and he looked at the closed door of the temple, and thought to himself:
"It seems that the Wu Palace has found the body of the ancestor, so it must have obtained information and maps about the Heavenly Capital City, otherwise the old hall master would not be like this, huh...... Let me think about how to make the next move. ”
Thinking of this, the huge door of the main hall was suddenly pushed open, and it was the queen who walked in, still holding a bowl of soup and medicine in her hand.
The Witch King's face sank even more, he lifted his sleeves, looked at the green veins on his arms, and said hatefully:
"I wish Ma Shu, you are really a good queen of this king! I wish the Ma family is really loyal!
The queen smiled flatteringly: "Hehe...... We are also for the king, for the sake of the dynasty, come, king, drink the medicine. ”
