Chapter 129: First Entry into the Star Picking Tower
Linglong looked puzzled, crossed Yuyao, and walked towards the cave. After a while, he came out again and asked suspiciously, "Zhou Han, did you see Shixuan out of the hole?"
Kyushu Han shook his head and shrugged his shoulders to indicate that he didn't know.
The three of them searched around the cave for a while, but found no trace of Wei Shixuan, as if the world had evaporated.
They discussed it for a while, got on Linglong'er's flying spirit weapon, and searched all the way, and the dark clouds filled their brows.
Yu Yao sat on the spiritual weapon, and only then did she have time to understand what had happened in the past few days, she frowned lightly and asked, "Shi Xuan asked you to guard outside the entrance of the cave, and said that he wanted to go home, right?"
Jiuzhou Han nodded, and said with a serious face: "I have a kind of uneasiness in my heart, and I always feel that Shixuan has paid a great price. Obviously, he didn't want us to know that maybe he was suffering alone. By then, your heart was shattered, and blood was pouring out of your chest. Even so, he can save you alive. And you don't seem to be in any pain now, except that your body is a little weak. ”
Linglong'er listened to it for a long time before she suddenly realized: "You mean that Shixuan's return home is just a pretense, and he is actually suffering somewhere. But why did he leave us?"
Yu Yao and Jiuzhou Han looked at each other helplessly, and they both had a headache at Linglong'er's slow response.
A few people kept looking at the city under the spirit weapon, the huge Phoenix Flying Kingdom, looking for a person was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Jiuzhou Han asked suspiciously, "Yuyao, where are we going next?"
Yu Yao thought for a while, stroked her petite chin, nodded and said, "First of all, we have to change our appearance, our appearance is too dazzling." ”
A day later
Three people who were lower than the spiritual cultivators of the Phoenix Flying Dynasty came to the imperial capital. Their faces are ordinary, except that they are lower than the people around them, and they can't be found in the pile, there is nothing worth eye-catching.
The three of them ignored the curious gazes of the people around them and calmly walked into an inn.
The woman at the head knocked lightly on the counter, and the urn shouted angrily: "Accommodation, two good rooms." ”
When they were done, the two women walked into a room, and the jade-faced man walked into the next room.
Inside the door, Linglong'er saw what Yu Yao was doing at the door, and she was a little curious and watched from the side.
In the middle of the night, the two went to sleep, Yu Yao felt a fluctuation at the door, closed her eyes and hooked the corners of her lips, and turned over and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, a scream pierced the inn's silence, followed by the sound of heavy objects rolling down the stairs.
Yu Yao and Linglong were woken up in their sleep. Linglong'er got up very angrily, she turned over and got out of bed, walked to the door in a few steps, and shouted in an extremely rough voice: "What's it called?
After roaring, she realized that something was wrong, and she opened her eyes in a daze, but she was frightened by the dark blue eyes in front of her.
She hurriedly took a few steps back, and her back bumped into Yu Yao, who was following.
Linglong'er turned around and asked, "Why is this person Yuyao hanging upside down at our door?"
Yu Yao smiled and said casually: "Maybe the scenery here is okay, don't worry about him, go and ask Jiuzhou Han to come downstairs for dinner." With that, he walked downstairs bypassing the upside-down man at the door.
Linglong'er covered her mouth and smiled, bypassed the upside-down person at the door, shouted two Kyushu cold outside the door, and when she heard him answer, she turned around and went downstairs.
Walking downstairs, Yu Yao was already sitting at the table, and breakfast was ready.
Linglong'er showed a strange look on her face, bumped Yu Yao's shoulder with her shoulder, and said with a wink: "I remembered the first time I met you, and it was also such a scene, and it really scared me out at the time." ”
Yu Yao glanced at her, poked her fingers at the other party's head, and said lightly: "Your courage is too small." ”
Jiuzhou Han came downstairs and saw the two of them talking and laughing, and their faces softened a little.
The three of them ate breakfast elegantly, listening to the things in the city that others talked about, which was also a little interesting.
Two men sat at the table next to them, one of whom lowered his voice and said to the other: "Do you know? I heard from a brother who guarded the city that the time of the Phoenix husband is short, and the queen of the phoenix is increasing the recruitment of prisoners to build the platform.
Another person looked puzzled and asked curiously: "This star picking platform has been repaired for so many months, it is simply the power of the whole country, why hasn't it been repaired yet?"
The man sneered, lowered his voice and continued: "That's not it, the queen of the phoenix accompanies her husband in the Star Picking Tower every day, and he has no intention of ruling the government, which has caused many ministers of the DPRK and China to be dissatisfied. Moreover, since the construction of the Star Picking Platform, there have been many strange things, saying that there are demons and evil spirits. ”
The other person hurriedly covered the man's mouth and shouted, "You don't want to die!" After speaking, Bian Yuyao and the three looked at him as if threatening.
Yu Yao smiled kindly at the other party, and then gave Kyushu Han a look, and he nodded appreciatively.
Jiuzhou Han got up and walked to the two of them, and asked in a low voice: "This fellow Daoist, may I ask where is the team that you said the queen recruited to decorate and build the platform? Please let me know, thank you!"
When the man heard this, he looked up and saw that it was a white-faced scholar, short in stature, weak in physique, and let down his guard. He couldn't help but kindly persuade: "You are a small body, if you go, you will be sent to death, why bother?"
Kyushu smiled, smiled gratefully, and said, "I'm really helpless, there is a mother at home who needs to be supported, please tell me." ”
The man said the place, and pulled the other person out of the inn.
Yu Yao saw that Kyushu Han made a gesture, and pulled Linglong'er out of the inn.
The three of them entered an alley vigilantly, and after a while, a swarthy face appeared on the street.
Yu Yao and Linglong'er are like fire girls, their little faces are dark except for a pair of eyes, and they can't see any characteristics.
Half a little bit smaller. The three of them came to the place where the man had spoken, and sure enough, they saw a team recruiting monks. The line consisted of only one column and was extremely short. The faces of those in line showed a look of death, and they were slightly surprised to see Yu Yao and the others.
I thought it would be a little troublesome, but I didn't expect it to be very easy to enter, and they felt a little ridiculous in their hearts.
After all the registrations were completed, the three of them bowed their heads and left with the team following the manager in front.
The three of them entered the inside of the star-picking platform, and only then did they understand why this star-picking platform needed such a huge project. I saw a tall building rising from the ground, which was made of dark iron stone, and even inlaid with jade at the edges and corners.
The star-picking platform has been repaired for five floors, and there are tall prisoners everywhere, all of whom are handchained, with bare chests and backs, and whip marks on their backs.
A lot of people were banging and beating, and there were even three furnaces that were burning with flames, and stones were constantly being brought in to melt, turned into molten iron, and then poured into models.
Seeing the three of them looking around, the manager said viciously: "You three burn the fire, pay attention, this fire must not be extinguished, if it is extinguished, you will wait for death." And you are not allowed to leave the area during normal times. So be it, you can arrange it yourself. "The words fell, and the people had already gone far.
