Chapter Ninety-Eight: Heavy Blows
"The plague?"
Hearing the news in the city, Yang Ke Huoran's color changed.
Plague has always been the most feared disaster in the Xia Kingdom. With the rejection of the Xia Kingdom and the world, disease can most weaken the vitality of the ancestors, and then kill them invisibly.
"What about Deng Kai and Ji Le?" Yang Ke stood up and walked in front of the mirror to question.
"At the moment, it is still unharmed, His Highness has opened the barrier and sheltered the land of Xia Kingdom, but I don't know how long it can last. ”
Yang Ke listened, walked out of the temple, and looked to the north from afar.
Under his demigod's vision, he saw the golden light shield rising from the north. Nine yellow dragons flew around the light mask, firmly locking the javelins in the sky.
But Rao was like this, Yang Ke still saw the javelin sliding down little by little.
"Heavenly Mandate Artifact, could it be that this is not just Nanyu Mountain, there is also the shadow of God behind it?" Yang Ke was confused, closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths before suppressing his mood.
The Mandate of Heaven artifact is a special artifact that is enough to affect fate. What the Mandate of Heaven artifact refers to is the fate of this world. And most of these artifacts are in the hands of God, because God-King God controls the fate of the entire world.
"Even though Ji Le has blocked the black qi of the plague, the javelin has already pointed at the Xia Kingdom, indicating that the plague will inevitably appear. Yang Ke hurriedly communicated with Yu Yuan: "Ring the alarm bell and start implementing the plague response measures established earlier." At this time, don't be afraid to spend money. 100,000 yuan is not comparable to the life of a single citizen of my family!"
"Also, tell Deng Kai and Xun An to be careful, don't be tricked. Especially Deng Kai, you have time to take care of more. ”
Yu Yu wrote them down one by one: "What about you?"
"I accelerated to Nanyu Mountain, striving to exterminate the evil god and solve this artifact from the root. Yang Ke suppressed the concern in his heart: if it was really God who was exerting influence behind his back, it would really be difficult to do. Has the old thief's wounds been healed?
"By the way, Feng'e is not there?" At this time, Yang Ke couldn't help but think of the patron god who had not yet taken office.
Yu Yuan looked at Yang Ke and did not speak.
Only then did Yang Ke remember that in order to prevent Feng'e from harassing Deng Kai, he had tricked Deng Kai out when he returned to the city, and he couldn't help at all at the moment.
"I knew this, so I left her. But the wood is already in the boat, and Yang Ke is helpless. He had no choice but to say: "Yu Yuan, there is Ji Le in Jiugong City, I don't worry." You must assist him until I solve the Mandate of Heaven artifact. ”
......
Jiugong City, after Yu Yuan communicated with Yang Ke, she immediately sounded the alarm.
On Wang Ting's side, sensing that something was wrong, Deng Kai and Xun An looked at each other, and Xun An said, "I'll arrange it, you go to the Spirit Palace to find out the news." ”
The two acted separately, Deng Kai rushed all the way to the Yongle Palace, and saw all the large and small witches gathered together, surrounding His Royal Highness the National Spirit, who supported the defensive barrier in the center.
And Yu Yuan is discussing with young people, women and others to move the people of nearby villages into the city.
"We rehearsed plague prevention and control earlier, and Nine Palace City can come up with some places for simple resettlement. It's just that there is a shortage of manpower, and he needs the help of His Royal Highness. ”
"I was training female soldiers during this time, and I just had nothing to do. This time, I'm going to show you the methods of female soldiers, and I'll leave them to me!"
When Deng Kai heard this, he directly interjected: "Move the people outside the city? Why? The defense power can't cover the outside of the city, and the people outside the city must be abandoned?"
Outside the city, there are not only villages and towns in the four directions, but also the workers in the border platform and the salt mine in Carlo City!
Thinking of this, Deng Kai immediately became anxious, and planned to rush over to question Ji Le.
But the young man stopped him and said in a deep voice: "Calm down! He is the spirit of the country, but all my land is under protection." Border stations and villages and towns can rest assured that we are only taking precautions early. And Caro City is far away from here, but because it is so far away, it is not within the range of attack. ”
"Not bad. Ji Le held the dragon staff, and while supporting the barrier, he responded: "The side platform is an important line of defense for us to defend against the West, and we cannot afford to lose it." How can this hall let a little plague poison my border soldiers?"
"Yu Yuan, go tell Yang Ke. Let him never go back to the city and kill Nanyu Mountain directly. ”
When Yu Yu heard this, she immediately said: "The monarch also has this plan, he said that Jiugong City has you in charge, and he can rest assured." ”
Ji Le's eyes moved slightly, and he bowed his head slightly. Suddenly, his body shook, and the javelin outside the barrier accelerated downwards and fell fifty meters.
Ji Le helped the dragon crown, and another golden dragon rushed into the sky, resisting the falling javelin.
Seeing this scene, the four leaders of the Spirit Palace were all shocked.
Wu Cheng's face was serious, and he said to Yu Yuan, Wu Li, and Wu Min: "Even though Your Highness has immeasurable magical powers, it is too unrealistic to support the barrier without sleeping. Therefore, we must help His Highness share the pressure. What do you three think?"
Wu Li: "That's right, you can't fight among yourself at this time. We worked in shifts of four, each leading a group of thirty wizards and shrine maidens to assist His Highness in supporting the spirit barrier. Each of the four witch groups supports one hour, rotating three times a day, to share the pressure for His Highness. ”
The four leaders quickly arranged it, and the first person to come forward was Wu Cheng, who led people to occupy the spiritual platforms around the Yongle Palace, urging the "Four Gods and Spirits Hua Array" to restore the spiritual power consumption for Ji Le.
When the formation was running, the Blue Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Xuanwu Phases flew over the Yongle Palace, forming a golden phantom to replace Ji Le's position.
The essence of the power of the national spirit is spiritual power, and the power of the witches is also spiritual power. It's just that the spirit of the nation draws strength from the country itself, from the people. And the power of the shamans comes from years of penance.
After the witches joined forces to amplify, this formation absorbed the vitality of heaven and earth, and combined with the spiritual power of the witches to inject into the barrier, sharing a lot of pressure for Ji Le.
Yu Yu reminded: "Your Highness, please inject your power into that phantom. ”
Ji Le didn't say a word, and threw a little afterglow of the fire into the golden phantom.
The afterglow of the flame submerged into the shadow, forming another illusory incarnation of the national spirit, replacing Ji Le to support the barrier. After thinking about it, Ji Le took off the dragon crown again and put it on top of the phantom's head.
With the phantom as the core, a ring of golden ripples spread out in all directions, covering the entire Xia Kingdom.
With the help of the witches, Ji Le finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Maintaining the barrier with a steady stream of strength, he also felt the pressure. Xia Guo's faith is very pure, and there are 100,000 people of faith every day, but it can't withstand Ji Le's repeated losses.
Xi Shi and Su Zhi brought tea and snacks to replenish Ji Le's strength.
About half an hour, Yu Yuan, Wu Li, and Wu Min observed Wu Cheng and his party, and saw that many young witches began to sweat on their foreheads.
Wu Li: "This can't be done, these little girls are young and won't last long." The rotation of three times a day is too much for them. ”
Wu Min: "The spiritual power of those witches and witches down there is not as good as a few of us, so let them fall every day." The four of us are full of aura, so we will work harder. As for the witches at the bottom, go back and find two backup groups to replace the witches. ”
Yu Yuan: "Then I'll arrange accommodation and food." In the past few days, everyone should not be too far away, just near the Yongle Palace, and it is convenient to take care of each other. ”
Wu Li: "That's true, but Taibu can't relax there. ”
Yu Yuan: "This is natural, I will apply a seal to ensure the safety of the boss." ”
The three of them made proper arrangements, and Yu Yu took the time to carry out plague prevention with Xun An and other royal courtiers. The first to be protected are the women who are in labor. The doctors of the Ming Palace deliberately sealed off the delivery room, leaving twenty days of water, food, and several doctors and medical women inside. Then, seal the door firmly and isolate it from the outside world.
If the plague does break out, then these women are the last hope.
In addition, the school palace also began to gather the children in the city and use the school palace's defensive formation to protect it. There are also peasant palaces, golden palaces, and even in the Fenggong palace carried by slaves, there is a specific magic circle for imperial guarding.
The Nine Palaces are the nine nodes at the core of Los Angeles, forming nine large arrays that resonate with each other, exhaling the aura of heaven and earth, turning into a mighty righteousness in the city, washing and purifying the evil that may exist.
After the alarm sounded, the people in the city became busy, and Ji Le received more and more faith power, and soon regained his spirit and was ready to help again.
At this time, it was Wu Li's turn to lead people to maintain the barrier: "You don't need Your Highness to take action all the way, just help me light up the origin of the core of the formation." ”
He led people to arrange another major array, named it "Yulu Xuanguang Array". A weeping willow appeared in the sky, and the breeze blew, sprinkling the rain all over the sky and submerging into the spirit barrier.
Ji Le drove the power of fire into the weeping willows, and rendered brilliant sparks outside the green silk.
In this way, hour after hour, the four wizard groups changed shifts, and one formation after another was staged until nightfall.
At this moment, it was Wu Li's turn to lead people to arrange the "Jade Dew Xuanguang Array". The weeping willow had just risen, and suddenly the sky was overcast, and the plague spear spat out the power of the moonlight, forming a more powerful impact and blasting towards the Nine Dragons Imperial Spirit Barrier below.
In an instant, the nine dragons were extinguished, and the weeping willow broke off. Ji Le, who was sitting in the Yongle Palace, spewed blood from his mouth, and the whole person fell out of his seat!
Sensing that something was wrong, Ji Le's body burst out with brilliance again, and re-resisted the plague spear that had fallen to two thousand meters.
He barely got up, "Yiguang, go find Emperor Shi!"
Unexpectedly, this javelin is actually related to moonshine!
"The night is heavy and yin, and with the blessing of the moonlight, the power of this javelin has doubled, is it the Moon Lord!"
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ji Le's face stiffened, and when he saw the blood on the back of his hand, he said in a deep voice: "Su Zhi, go tell Yu Yuan to check the casualties in the city." ”
The spirit of the nation vomits blood, and there will be deaths and injuries among the people. Moon Lord, Nanyu Mountain, I have written down this beam!
The second daughter hurriedly went down, and the young man stepped forward to help Ji Le up: "It's troublesome?"
Ji Le waved his hand: "It's still expected." It's just that the plague divine power just now is a bit fierce, which is almost as strong as the power of the gods. And if you can't solve the problem at the source, I can't do anything about it. ”
"So, you want the monarch to kill into Nanyu Mountain and lift the spell of the source?"
Ji Le nodded, closed his eyes, and waited for Emperor Shi to arrive.
Shi Huang rushed to the news as soon as he got the news.
Seeing Ji Le's appearance, Shi Huang hurriedly took out a jade pen, cooperated with Ji Le's Nine Dragons Golden Light Mask, and wrote one seal after another on the surface of the light mask.
These seals absorb the aura of heaven and earth and turn into layers of literary and ideological networks, triggering the aura of heaven and earth to purify the black qi on the surface of the barrier.
"At that moment, I'm afraid that a lot of black qi will come in, and the plague will definitely break out. Ji Le rubbed his forehead, he vaguely felt a little headache.
"That's it, old man, you and I take turns on duty, and we can't be careless at night. ”
Emperor Shi also understood in his heart that this was clearly the Moon Lord among the eight lords of the Xia Kingdom who was secretly promoting, and it was obvious that the Xia Kingdom would die!
"Also, I remember that many women and children in the city were sent to the Ming Palace for protection?"
"Yes, what do you mean?"
"Send another batch to Lingshan!" Ji Le said in a deep voice: "Eggs can't be put in one basket." Before you think about winning, you think about defeat first. The plague cannot be kept out by us, especially since I vomit blood, and there will definitely be casualties in the city. Rather than a large-scale outbreak, it is better to take precautions early and protect women and children first. As for the old man......"
Ji Le closed his eyes, and Emperor Shi sighed faintly: "In the barbaric period, crises are lurking, and everyone understands it in their hearts. The future of the country lies in the young sons, and those old people understand it. ”
Ji Le clenched his fists, endured it for a while, and then let it go: "Old man, let me strengthen the defense." ”
