Three thousand crows slaughtered and came into the house out of nowhere, staring at the scroll in Yu Miaomiao's hand.

"Do you know what's written on this?" Yu Miaomiao asked.

The three thousand crows raised their heads arrogantly, "Of course, I'm a holy relic, and there's nothing I don't know." ”

"Do you know how Feng Leizhi is doing in Yunzhou City?"

Shout! One sentence hits the bull's-eye.

The three thousand crows froze on the spot, just like a sculpture, and immediately froze.

Yu Miaomiao sneered very unkindly.

She knew who the strange bird was in her heart, though it would not admit it on the surface.

"Tell me, what is this?" Yu Miaomiao secretly proudly unfolded the scroll.

The three thousand crows hung their heads in annoyance and glanced at the circle on the scroll.

"It's the Spiritualist Array."

"Huh?" Yu Miaomiao didn't understand these strange names, "What kind of spiritualist?" ”

"It's a magic circle that brings back your lost soul." The three thousand crows were impatient and grabbed their sharp beaks with their claws, "But it is very dangerous to use this kind of magic circle, if you encounter an accident, you will not be able to successfully bring the soul back, or you will not be able to return to the main body after summoning the soul back." ”

The three thousand crows were killed and explained for a long time, and Yu Miaomiao was dumbfounded.

Although she could understand every word that Sanqian said, she couldn't understand it when it was connected.

"Okay, okay, what you said is too profound, I just want to know if you use this magic circle, can Yu Ying's soul be summoned back?"

The three thousand crows tilted their heads, "Where is his soul?" ”

"It should have been used by Princess Yongqing to make soul-attracting blood jade." She has also heard a lot about Princess Yongqing recently.

"This ...... You have to ask Xiaolian to know. The three thousand crows were killed, and he said uncertainly.

"Where's Xiaolian?" Yu Miaomiao put away the scroll and prepared to jump out of bed.

"Who knows, I don't care about him." The three thousand crows jumped on the bedpost in anger and squatted there refusing to go.

"Hey, you shouldn't be arguing with Xiaolian, right?" Yu Miaomiao said unexpectedly, she didn't expect that Sanqian would have an awkward relationship with Xiaolian.

The three thousand crows were killed, and they turned their heads and refused to look at her.

Yu Miaomiao's gossip heart suddenly rose, and she asked endlessly.

The three thousand crows had no choice but to tell the truth.

It turned out that Sanqian wanted to go back to Yunzhou City to see Feng Leizhi's situation, but if it was alone, it would not be able to go to the other side through the world in the umbrella.

But Xiao Lian refused to take it to Yunzhou City.

"Stingy, little love big fool!" Three thousand crows are murderously fried.

Yu Miaomiao wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

That night, the three thousand crows were killed and left on her side.

In the morning, Yu Miaomiao was awakened by a low horn sound outside.

"Where did the trumpet sound come from?" Yu Miaomiao rubbed her eyes and sat up.

Three thousand crows flew to the window and looked out.

"There's a ghost."

Yu Miaomiao jumped out of bed barefoot and followed to the window.

In the distance, black clouds obscured the sky, like a storm was coming.

Yu Miaomiao's eyes couldn't help but widen.

Even she could clearly feel the ominous aura carried in the black clouds.

"Where's the ghost?" Yu Miaomiao asked three thousand.

Without waiting for Sanqian to answer, a conversation between Wei Jiuxiao and the guards came from below the Linshui Zhaohua.

"Where's the princess?"

"Still sleeping......

"Send more men to guard the palace, and if the city is broken, you will take the princess into the palace......"

Hearing this, Yu Miaomiao's heart tightened suddenly.

City broken? What the hell is going on.

"Wei Jiuxiao!" She couldn't help but shout.

Wei Jiuxiao heard her call and retreated away from the open Xuan below, only then did she see her in the window on the second floor.

"What happened?" Yu Miaomiao asked.

Wei Jiuxiao looked up at the window and looked at his people, "It's nothing, there is a ghost army outside the city, and the city has been besieged, so don't go out in the palace, if there is an accident, this king will send someone to send you into the palace." ”

There were a few words in the back, but Wei Jiuxiao endured and endured it, but did not say it.

He really wanted to tell her that if the palace couldn't be saved, let her follow the love and kill.

There is a soul guide who loves life and killing, and I believe that no matter what kind of ghost army can help him.

"Have you refined the talisman to restrain the ghostly energy?" Yu Miaomiao asked.

"It won't be that fast, at least in a few days." Wei Jiuxiao's voice was warm, but the expression in his eyes was very soft, "This king is going to the city to have a look, and he may not come back tonight." ”

The ghost army besieged the city, how could it be so easy to defend the city, and I don't know how many ghost armies came, dozens? Or a few hundred?

The imperial city is so big, how can a mere army of hundreds of ghosts besiege the city.

It must be thousands of people, maybe ......

She didn't dare to think about it anymore, and when she saw that Wei Jiuxiao was leaving, she was in a hurry and jumped on the windowsill at once.

"Wei Jiuxiao, wait a minute!"

Wei Jiuxiao's kung fu Yu Miaomiao turned her head and climbed down the second floor of Linshui Zhaohua, her movements were clean and neat, only frightening the guards downstairs, for fear that she would miss and fall.

"Princess!"

"Princess, be careful!"

Wei Jiuxiao heard everyone's exclamations and turned his head.

I saw Yu Miao jumping barefoot and jumping down from a place as high as one person.

"What to do!" Wei Jiuxiao scolded and stepped forward to catch her at the same time.

At this time, it was still winter, even if Yu Miaomiao was not afraid of the cold because of the relationship between the ice and cold beads, Wei Jiuxiao still didn't want to see her barefoot, so she didn't care for herself.

Yu Miaomiao suddenly jumped into his arms and hugged his neck.

"Wei Jiuxiao, don't be reckless when you go to the city, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, this is not a shameful thing, as the old saying goes, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood......"

She muttered a lot, and Wei Jiuxiao's lips pursed.

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

Yu Miaomiao leaned into Wei Jiuxiao's ear, "If the situation is in crisis...... You must escape. ”

Wei Jiuxiao was silent for a moment.

"You're making this king a deserter?"

Yu Miaomiao rolled her eyes, "This is not a deserter, this is called a strategic retreat!" ”

Wei Jiuxiao endured and endured, and finally hid the smile on her lips.

If someone had advised him to flee from the battle, he would have killed him on the spot, because of his father's connections, he would not allow himself to have any such thoughts.

But now that he was holding the stupid fish, he suddenly understood his former self.

In the past, he was too tight, like a thread, which could break at any time, and he was forcing himself to find a reason for himself to live uprightly.

The idea of a stupid fish is simple.

She didn't want him to die, she wanted him to live, and the two of them could be together for a long time.

"This king's life is not something anyone can take." Wei Jiuxiao looked at her, his gaze fell on her white neck, "You can endure it for a few more days, and then come back to take care of you when this king finishes the matter outside the city." ”

Ahh

Yu Miaomiao's face turned red instantly, and she hugged his neck.

Wei Jiuxiao went to the city and disappeared for several days.

Yu Miaomiao received a rare heart, and stayed in the palace honestly, and every day she went to Mei Ruhua's small building to check the situation of talisman refining.

Although Mei Ruhua has a crazy personality, she is very concerned about this matter, and she can't even take care of resting, staring at the talisman he has refined all night.

Yu Miaomiao delivered the food to the small building on time every day, so as not to starve this thin old man.

On the fifth day of Wei Jiuxiao's departure, something happened outside the city.

The eldest prince Feng Shengdong rushed back from the border with an army of 20,000.

He originally received a secret letter from the King of Youyou, and he brought the troops back to assist the little emperor, but he didn't expect to encounter the ghost army outside the city.

As soon as the two sides fought, Feng Shengdong's men suffered heavy losses.

The ghost army is very strong, not only is they not afraid of death, but they also retain the strength of their life, although their movements are slower, but they can fight without sleep.

Seeing that the soldiers and horses of the eldest prince Feng Shengdong were intercepted by the ghost army outside the city, Wei Jiuxiao had no choice but to order people to go out of the city to respond, and after a scuffle, it was not easy to rescue Feng Shengdong and the remaining soldiers and horses into the city.

Carefully counted, more than half of the 20,000 people were killed and wounded, and even Feng Shengdong himself was severely injured by the ghost army, and one side of his face was covered with blood, leaving a deep scar that could reach the bone.

But in the end, there was no fear of life.

The most puzzling and worrying thing for everyone is that Wei Jiuxiao was also injured in this battle.

The left arm was cut by the ghost army, but fortunately, the dark iron armor offset most of the strength for him, but it still broke the ghost talisman in his left hand, and the ghost qi entered the body.

Fortunately, Ming Ruyan followed him at that time, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he called the guards of the Youyou Mansion beside him and desperately snatched Wei Jiuxiao back to the city.

The gates of the city were shut, keeping out the demon army outside.

Someone at the head of the city brought a sharp arrow with a letter in it and handed it to Wei Jiuxiao.

"This is what someone shot at the city from the outside in the midst of the chaos just now." The soldier said.

Wei Jiuxiao had difficulty moving because of the ghost qi invading her body, so she had to accept the letter from Ming Ruyan.

Feng Shengdong simply dealt with the injury and hurried to Wei Jiuxiao's side.

"Whose letter is it?"

Half of Feng Shengdong's head was wrapped in bandages, stained with blood, and it looked a little funny.

But all who saw him would not have the slightest contempt.

Although the eldest prince of the Feng Kingdom came from a humble background, he was a brave and warlike one, and thanks to him, the border of the Feng Kingdom was saved from war all these years.

And the most rare thing is that because he knows that he has no chance with the throne, he is extremely wise to stay away from the imperial city, and he has not been involved in the battle in the palace all these years.

Ming Ruyan opened the letter, but frowned when it was unfolded.

"Who's the letter?" Wei Jiuxiao also asked in a low voice.

"It's Princess Yongqing."

Wei Jiuxiao took a deep breath.

In fact, there is no need for Ming Ruyan to say, he has already guessed the answer.

first refined the soul-attracting blood jade, and then tried to curse the emperor and control the government...... Princess Yongqing wants more and more.

A hint of surprise flashed in Feng Shengdong's eyes, "It's the imperial aunt?" ”

Wei Jiuxiao closed her eyes tiredly, "Your Highness may not know about the things in the palace before, so let Ming Ruyan tell you." ”

Ming Ruyan simply told the changes that happened in the palace before.

Feng Shengdong was expressionless when he heard this, but the hand that pressed the scabbard on his waist clenched.

"The Imperial Aunt wants the throne?"

"Yes, she said in the letter that she would give us three days to think about it, so that the little emperor could open the city gate and welcome her as the new emperor, she said...... She wants to get back what was rightfully her own. Ming Ruyan looked at the letter, "Lord, do you want to send the letter to the emperor?" ”

Wei Jiuxiao nodded.

"Your Highness will definitely enter the palace later, so I will ask you to do it for you."

Feng Shengdong took the letter happily, and seemed to hesitate when he went out.

"What else is going on with Your Highness?" Ming Ruyan asked.

Feng Shengdong ignored Ming Ruyan, and slowly turned to look at Wei Jiuxiao, "Lord Wang, when I was outside the city, I noticed the bodies of those ghost armies...... It seems to be wearing an old battle armor of the Feng Kingdom. ”

Wei Jiuxiao was silent.

Feng Shengdong continued, "They should also be lieutenant generals of the Feng State Army when they were alive, why did they become the ghost army in the hands of the imperial aunt? ”

Wei Jiuxiao still didn't speak.

Feng Shengdong lowered his eyes, "Maybe I'm wrong." With that, he turned and left.

Wei Jiuxiao leaned back in the chair weakly, his eyes closed and his breathing gradually deepened.

If it were someone else, he would have thought that he was asleep at this time.

For several days, they set up formations and fortifications, and they did not sleep for several days, and even those who were beaten with iron could not stand up.

Ming Ruyan knew that King Youyou was awake at this time, and even if he was tired and sleepy, he would not allow himself to sleep here.

In danger, he would not allow himself to fall asleep.

"Lord Wang." Ming Ruyan called in a low voice, "The injury on the prince's left arm is better to go back to the house as soon as possible to deal with it." ”

The ghost talisman was broken, and Wei Jiuxiao was now like a mud general with nothing to show for himself, looking very powerful, but he was even very laborious to move, let alone ride a horse into battle.

“…… Three days to go. Wei Jiuxiao closed his eyes and spit out a sentence.

"Just outside the city, did the prince find anything wrong?" Ming Ruyan was outspoken.

With Wei Jiuxiao's ability, even among the ghost army, he would not be easily cut off on his left arm, but this time he lost his hand.

Wei Jiuxiao was silent for a long time and opened his eyes.

"Those ghost armies are wearing the old battle armor of the Feng Kingdom."

Ming Ruyan was not yet twenty years old, and he was raised as a servant in the palace when he was young, so he had never seen the old battle armor of Feng Kingdom.

"What does the prince want to say?"

"The king's father...... In their last battle, they wore this kind of armor, and after that, the emperor issued an order to replace the armor in the army, and all of them were replaced with the current style. ”

Ming Ruyan exclaimed, "What does the prince mean...... These ghost soldiers are the soldiers who disappeared back then? ”

The corners of Wei Jiuxiao's mouth trembled.

He didn't want to admit it, but the reality was cruel, even if he closed his eyes, the appearance of those ghost armies passed by him one by one.

Especially in the melee, he saw several familiar faces from close range.

At that time, he was so shocked that he was almost stabbed by the enemy.

Those faces were the guards who followed his father back then.

When his father disappeared, he was still young, but those guards were with his father all the year round, and even if they became a ghost army, he would not admit his mistake.

A terrible thought kept pounding his brain.

His father...... Did the 50,000 soldiers who disappeared with his men all become ghost troops?

Wei Jiuxiao slumped weakly on the chair, her heart heavy.

Originally, the ghost talisman was broken, and he should have hurried back to his house to find Mei Ruhua to remake the ghost talisman, but at this time, he had no mind and let the ghost qi in his left hand continue to invade his body.

As if he didn't feel pain, he stared numbly.

"Lord, someone from the palace has come." The voice of a guard was heard outside the door.

Ming Ruyan and Wei Jiuxiao were stunned at the same time.

"What's wrong with the princess?" Wei Jiuxiao asked sharply.

Ming Ruyan sighed silently, this was also what he wanted to ask.

As long as there is something in the palace, their first thought is that their powerful, tossed princess will cause some trouble.

The guards outside the door were confused, "No, it's the prince and the princess who came together to deliver something to the prince, saying that Mr. Mei has refined the talisman......"

"Invite the princess in." Ming Ruyan was overjoyed.

It just so happened that the ghost talisman in their prince's hand was broken, and this talisman came just in time.

The guards outside walked away, and after a while, a man in a black cloak came in from outside, and there were three thousand crows on his shoulder.

But I didn't see Yu Miaomiao's figure.

Ming Ruyan looked out the door in surprise.

"Where's the princess?"

Lian Shengsheng stretched out of his cloak with one hand, holding a fish tank.

Ming Ruyan was stunned.

In the fish tank, a red carp is proudly waging its tail, and at the bottom of the tank is a square sign, the texture of which is unknown, but there are intricate spells engraved on it.

It was the talisman that Mei Ruhua had refined that could restrain the ghostly spirit.

The red carp emerged from the water, grabbed the edge of the tank with its short fins, and winked at Wei Jiuxiao.

That's right, Wei Jiuxiao felt that she must not be mistaken, the stupid fish was using her pair of dead fish eyes...... Eye-winching!

The corners of Wei Jiuxiao's eyes and eyebrows couldn't stop shaking.

Love life and death was very calm, handed over the fish tank in his hand to Ming Ruyan, said nothing, and turned to leave.

The three thousand crows on his shoulders did not go out with him, but flew down on the table.

"Hey, stupid woman, your man is hurt." Sanqian saw the blood stains on Wei Jiuxiao's left sleeve.

Yu Miaomiao's eyes widened, and she jumped out of the tank with a bang.

"All out!" Wei Jiuxiao hurriedly shouted.

In fact, there was no need for him to speak, Ming Ruyan had already consciously retreated to the door, and by the way, he drove the guards outside away from the door.

Yu Miaomiao's body turned into a human form in mid-air, and Wei Jiuxiao untied her robe with one hand, wanting to cover her body.

It's a pity that he didn't have any strength at all, and he didn't even unbutton it for a long time.

"Where did it hurt?" The slick stupid fish climbed into his lap and searched all over him in a hurry.

"No ......" Wei Jiuxiao was still trying to untie his robe.

Yu Miaomiao held his hand and said earnestly, "Don't worry about doing that kind of thing at this time." ”

Wei Jiuxiao's green tendons almost broke.

What kind of thing did he want to do?

Yu Miaomiao's face: Don't explain, I understand the expression.

Wei Jiuxiao felt that her eyes were dark.

"Where's the amulet, hurry up and get it."

"Oh, yes, Talisman!" Yu Miao jumped off him with a whizz.

"Clothes ......" Wei Jiuxiao squeezed out two words from between her teeth.

"It's okay, I'm not cold." Yu Miaomiao said briskly, she fished out the talisman from the fish tank, turned around and prepared to hand it over to Wei Jiuxiao, "Hey? Ghost Paw, what's wrong with you? ”

Wei Jiuxiao held his forehead with his hand, he felt that he was going crazy.

The moment the talisman touched his left hand, a stream of black gas rose from his hand, like an invisible black flame.

Wei Jiuxiao pulled Miao Miao into her arms, and stretched her left arm far away.

The black fire spread across his arm, burning all the way to his arm.

At this moment, the Three Thousand Crows suddenly flew up from the table and pounced on Wei Jiuxiao's left hand.

Yu Miaomiao was startled, but she believed that Sanqian would not hurt Wei Jiuxiao.

In contrast, Wei Jiuxiao was unusually calm, as he could feel the ghost qi gradually being forced out of his body, staying on the surface of his skin and struggling.

When the three thousand crows swooped down, the black flames were extinguished at once.

The three thousand crows flew down on the back of the chair opposite with all their might, and shook the feathers on their bodies: "Stupid woman, I helped you man, how can you thank me." ”

Before Yu Miao Miao could speak, she suddenly saw Wei Jiuxiao get up, quickly took off her robe to cover her body, and then opened the drawer under the table, grabbed a handful of gold leaves from it and threw it over.

The three thousand crows jumped on the table generously and swallowed the gold like a whirlwind.

Yu Miaomiao's eyes turned red.

So much money...... Oh gold!

Three thousand just pounced and flapped its wings, it didn't even use any strength, so it was so easy to earn.

"Devil's claw, you loser." Yu Miao was anxious, she wanted to break free of Wei Jiuxiao's hands and catch three thousand crows and kill them all.

The three thousand crows flapped their wings and fled through the window.

"Wait until you lose all your money in the future, see what you use to feed me!" Yu Miaomiao vented her dissatisfaction.

Wei Jiuxiao squinted slightly, his gaze moving from her face to her collarbone.

"You followed outsiders naked to find this king, is it reasonable?"

"What naked, I have scales."

I'm a carp, I'm proud!

Yu Miaomiao raised her chin proudly, "Besides, Xiaolian is not an outsider......

Wei Jiuxiao's arm tightened suddenly, and Yu Miao screamed in pain.

"I'm going to run out of gas!" She protested.

"He's not an outsider, is this king?"

Finally dispelled the ghost aura in his left hand, his mood was indescribably comfortable, but Yu Miaomiao's appearance still made him very unhappy.

Why is it so difficult to keep her in the palace?

Yu Miao pouted, "Is your arm hurt badly?" ”

"Nope."

Even if his arm was broken, she wouldn't hear him shout the word "pain".

"I'll see." Yu Miaomiao went to pull his left hand.

This time Wei Jiuxiao didn't refuse, she lifted his sleeves. She was taken aback by the exposed left arm.

The burnt color was gone, replaced by horrible scars, criss-crossed, like burns.

"This is left behind after being corroded by the ghost qi, and it can never be removed." Wei Jiuxiao said casually, it seems that he will continue to wear his Xuantie armor in the future, such scars are too terrifying.

Yu Miaomiao touched his hand distressedly, "I don't like you to wear that thing anymore." ”

"Why?" Wei Jiuxiao raised one side of his eyebrows.

"It's cold, and it's not comfortable to hold you at all."

Wei Jiuxiaohuan's hand on her back involuntarily slipped down, her eyes as strong as wine.

"Next time, this king will definitely satisfy you." He paused word by word.

If it weren't for the current siege of the ghost army, he would really want to kill her on the spot.

His stupid fish was always so direct, like a little wild horse, it really suited his appetite.
