Chapter 28: The Test
I thought this was the end of the matter, but I didn't expect that early the next morning, Qian Gu Ning got up early and was about to go out, but she was frightened by the big formation in front of the door.
The ironclad dogleg of the ancient family...... No, the most dutiful butler Toya led people to guard the door and intercepted Eternal Ning.
"What is this going to do?" Qian Gu Ning was most afraid of this big housekeeper, especially when he was a child, he had seen his ruthlessness in killing people without blinking, and he had nightmares for a long time, and he still had a shadow in his heart.
Toya saluted, and a subtle smile hung on his pale face, which had been the same for more than ten years, although this smile had always been creepy: "Miss Ning, the head of the family ordered me to pick you up." ”
Qiangu Ning subconsciously didn't want to go, but Toya bowed down like this, his movements were standard and elegant, and his hands were spiritually jumping, as if he was going to tie up Qiangu Ning and take him away in the next moment.
Reluctantly, she compromised: "Okay. Wouldn't it be rude for me to go back like this?"
Toya kept the gesture of invitation: "No, you don't need so much etiquette to go home." ”
"By the way, your spirit of the covenant should go with you. ”
I knew it was coming to her spirit. It seems that if this group of people does not understand, this matter will not be able to pass.
Eternal Ning had to take the initiative to communicate through the spirit space and prepare for retreat Cheng Zhaoxi, but she didn't expect that she had already come down, said hello to Toya, and boarded the car.
"Do you sense it?" The carriage of the Eternal Family is very imposing and ...... There's a lot of space inside to make a big fight.
"Hmm. ”
"Your face seems to be much paler. Qian Gu Ning said with concern, although Qi Ling was naturally cold and white, Cheng Zhaoxi seemed to be a little weak, and this sickly paleness inexplicably made her whole person soften.
Cheng Zhaoxi smiled silently and bitterly, and glanced at the chief manager before getting into the car, like an abyss, foggy and unfathomable. She had just noticed a spiritual invasion in the room, and the barrier under the cloth dissolved silently, and she was involuntarily dragged out, and she couldn't use the slightest resistance.
Fortunately, he had no ill intentions, otherwise it would not have been as simple as paleness.
The carriage started slowly, and the Ancient Family was on a mountain with a very considerable scale, and as a member of the Nine Great Families, it also divided and occupied most of the resources of the Southern Ming Kingdom. It's just that since the new emperor ascended the throne twenty years ago, a series of policies have weakened the power of the family even more. The most serious is the Ah clan, as a priest family that has made great contributions to the founding of the country, it is known as the second royal family, and it originally held the absolute right to speak, but after all, it is necessary to hang the name of the second child, and it should not provoke the imperial power too much and squeeze the royal family too much. So after the border defeat a hundred years ago, the first to suffer from the heavy pressure of royal politics, in recent years, the mountains and rivers are declining, the talent is withering, and it is almost falling out of the nine systems.
Kyoto is full of treacherous circumstances, and Qiangu Ning has been outside the Qiangu family for a long time, and she can't feel the heaviness of it, and her greatest pain is just the anger of the royal family against her mother's bloodline.
This time, with the carriage of the Qiangu family on this familiar aristocratic avenue to the Qiangu family, her mood became heavy for some reason, and in a trance, she grew up, and there were more things to come into contact with......
Through the bright light of the great array, the mouth of the monstrous beast in the sky was facing the human world, and it seemed that it could swallow the heaven and earth at any time.
Cheng Zhaoxi didn't know what she was thinking, she felt dull in her chest from just now, and after sitting for a while, she only felt that her hands and feet were paralyzed, and she gradually became weak, and the cold and heat in her body were staged in turns, she originally thought that she could suppress it, but she didn't expect that as soon as she moved her spiritual power, she immediately made a crazy fuss. The snow-white face was blue and white, the carriage was bumpy, her throat was itchy, she couldn't help coughing, and suddenly coughed up blood flowers with a "wow", splashing onto the placket of Qianyunning's clothes. Thousands of years of condensing thought that he was delusional, Cheng Zhaoxi seemed to have become smaller, and the originally condensed spirit body seemed to be about to collapse for a moment.
“...... How are you?"
Before Qian Gu Ning could say this, the whole car was split by a white light, which crossed her between Cheng Zhaoxi, and the white light outside flashed, and the second one immediately slashed towards her, with a murderous aura. Before she realized what was happening, she was grabbed by Cheng Zhaoxi's slender translucent hand by the collar and flicked it, narrowly avoiding it, and was about to hit the tree on the mountain road, a gentle force lifted her, unloaded most of the strength, the support dissipated, a paper talisman burned out and disappeared, and the eternal condensation suddenly lost its support, "poof" rolled down a few meters away, hit all kinds of meat, dizzy, and a burst of darkness in front of her.
I heard the sound of a fight, and after a while it stopped.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that the valuable carriage and the carriage were split into two pieces from the middle, and the dead dragon horse was still convulsing, and the blood of hindsight flowed down the mountain road.
It was dark on all sides, and Toya and the others were nowhere to be seen.
Dark Domain...... Suffocating through the ages, is this a test for the family?
Cheng Zhaoxi cut off her little finger just now, and the cold sun purple flower on her forehead was in full bloom, emitting bursts of warm yellow light, and the spiritual mist was surging, repairing her broken little finger.
Cheng Zhaoxi coughed uncomfortably, holding the bone staff in his left hand, the bone staff was greedily absorbing the thick black fog on all sides, it seemed that the dense fog of this dark domain was a delicious nutrient.
There was silence for a moment, this silence was only instantaneous, and the treacherous screams came from all directions, like thousands of ghosts traveling, and the eternal condensation was shocked by this sudden scream, his head was blank, his body was cold, and his soul seemed to be torn into thousands of pieces, and he was thrown into hell, and he was never recovered.
"Close your eyes, concentrate, and mobilize Danhai's energy. Cheng Zhaoxi punched her a heart purifying talisman.
A crisp bell swayed, and the blue air cleared the gloomy black fog around it, and the sharp ghost roar weakened a little, and the ground rose and fell, as if something was drilling underground, ready to pounce and bite.
Cheng Zhaoxi's own spirituality was imprisoned for the most part, and she could only borrow the qi of the eternal condensation, and she didn't need to look inward to feel that the luxuriant spirit imprint was opening its rampant roots at this moment, deeply penetrating into the depths of her divine soul, absorbing her cultivation.
I knew that the housekeeper was uneasy and kind, she could only deceive the Eternal Ning with such a reverse spirit spirit, but she could not hide it from those high-level spirit masters, and she found the mystery at a glance, although she could not actually change the relationship between them, but she could make a little trick make her suffer.
Cheng Zhaoxi extracted the qi of the eternal condensation, the bone staff pierced into the ground, and a golden talisman swayed along the bone staff and fell to the ground, Cheng Zhaoxi's thin lips moved the mantra: "Solidify." ”
The ground solidified like scaly flakes of crystals, and the things drilled on the ground were solidified into twisted snakes, solidified in the crystals, which looked hideous and terrifying.
A little cold light tore through the black curtain and slashed, the knife was sharp, slashing towards the eternal condensation, Cheng Zhaoxi had been around the eternal condensation to extract the qi of the living beings, picked up the bone staff and turned it quickly, and hit it hard, the sound of the blades hitting each other scattered the knives scattered, and the scattered knives shattered all the scaly crystals on the ground, and the solidified black snake writhed and disappeared into the ground.
The darkness gradually faded, the light from the outside leaked in, a person stood on the mountain road with a knife, Qi Ling's pale eyes were fierce, the cold sun purple flower on his forehead was also in full bloom, and the left cheek was cut by the knife that came back from the counterattack, oozing blood.
Behind him was a woman half-squatting with a black body, her hair swept by the breeze, like a tiny black snake writhing, and there was also a large Pact spirit mark on her forehead.
Toya Xinxin stood farther away, his pale face was still calm, he stretched out his index finger and hooked it towards Cheng Zhaoxi, and a small red insect crawled out of the Dasheng cold sun purple flower, "twitter" spread its wings and flew back into Toya's hand, burrowing into his index finger.
Cheng Zhaoxi only felt a pain in her soul, and suddenly returned spiritually, violently impacting the Jin Dan that was swaying in the sea of her knowledge, almost dispersing the Jin Dan, she held the bone staff and half knelt to gasp, and it took a long time to calm down the sea of knowledge, and the whole person lay on the ground with blood at the corner of her mouth.
Eternal Ning didn't have anything to do at all, as soon as Cheng Zhaoxi stopped pumping her energy, she noticed a warm air flow flowing in her limbs, and when she saw Cheng Zhaoxi lying on the ground, she hurriedly ran over, only to feel that Cheng Zhaoxi was a little thinner again.
Toya's gentle voice came: "Since you are a pact, you must have the consciousness of a pact, this is the rule of the ancient family. ”
"The head of the family should be in a hurry, Miss Ning should leave quickly. ”
Eternal Ning was inexplicable, and he didn't know what these headless and tailless words meant.
Cheng Zhaoxi's heart sank, and a trace of imperceptible murder was hidden in his heart.
