Chapter 1: The Autumn Sacrifice Escape 1
"Abundance! Net to the essence of the chaos! "The annual autumn festival is a grand ceremony to pray for a good harvest to the heavens, and hundreds of civil and military officials, princes and nobles must be present to show their grandeur.
Yun Lang couldn't help but have a headache when he looked at the guards in front of him who bowed his head and returned to his life-he heard that the third prince was not in the mansion early in the morning, so he sent someone to look for it, and there was no shadow until now. waved his hand to drive everyone away, Feng Wu really didn't participate in the ceremony, and these people couldn't even find a single hair.
The important ceremony of the country, even the prince is nowhere to be found!
…………
"On the day of the autumn festival,
The prince fled.
For five days,
nowhere to be seen.
……”
The attendant Gu Li hummed a small tune he made up while holding the dog's tail grass, and sat staggering with his right foot on the saddle, so uncomfortable!
"Hey~" Gu Li stretched his waist and lay down with his hands behind his head, "From ancient times to the present, the prince is afraid that the prime minister is estimated to be the first ...... Rajah! ”
Gu Lizheng was muttering to himself, and suddenly felt a black shadow overhead over his eyes, and he saw that the person who came almost flipped off the horse with a spirit.
Hurriedly sat upright: "Lord Wang...... You, you're back......"
Seeing this panic, Fengwu just replied softly-"Hmm." ”
I had already come back to explore the road, and I stayed behind him and listened to it twice, if it wasn't for Gu Li stretching his waist and lying down, it is estimated that he would have been able to listen to it two more times.
Gu Li glanced down and touched his nose awkwardly.
"That'...... Where do we go from here? ”
"Follow the king."
"Yes......"
Gu Li followed behind Feng Wu, unable to see his expression—the prince's face must have been stinky—he thought so.
Gu Li thought about it, and felt that he was right-this whole country will have two sacrifices next year. A Chinese New Year's Eve festival for the old and the new; The beginning of autumn festival, which is a sacrifice to pray for rain and a good harvest, is also a sacrifice related to people's livelihood. Almost all the people of status and the ministers of the court in these two sacrificial palaces have to go to the altar to participate in the worship ceremony, which is a national event, and there is no reason to shirk it, otherwise they will be severely punished.
As for what the heavy punishment was, Gu Li didn't know, because no one had tried it yet. But now......
Gu Li looked at the straight back of the horse riding in front, and sighed cautiously - this case made the third prince Fengwu broken.
No one appeared on the day of the Liqiu Festival, and Fengjing searched up and down but couldn't find anyone, and until the end of the Liqiu Festival, people were as if they had evaporated. In the evening, he suddenly appeared in the house, saying that he had something to do and would leave immediately.
Helpless, who asked Yun Lang to throw Gu Li to Feng Wu as an entourage, so he could only follow him out, for five days in a row, and he didn't see anything to do, except for the first day of hurried horseback riding, the remaining four days were slowly and leisurely walking on the trail.
Fengjing is prosperous, how can it be compared with a small place. The first two days were still fresh and interesting, and the next three days were also so aimlessly riding around on horseback, for a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child like Gu Li, he was already a little impatient, so he had to make up his own tune and hum a few words, but he didn't know how much he listened to by Feng Wu silently.
At the end, Gu Li thought about it again, and pulled out the dog's tail grass in his mouth: "Lord Wang, ...... that song just now?"
"Good singing."
"Ahh No, that's not what it means! ”
"Is that what those two sentences mean?"
Two sentences in the middle? Gu Li tilted his head and thought about it, and blushed......
The middle two sentences are-
"I don't know if it's if,
Go to meet the beauty.
A momentary pleasure of lovers
Thousands of dollars do not change. ”
Gu Li's brain froze in place with a "bang", blaming himself for his stinky mouth and making up some tunes.
Feng Dynasty dynasties are not passed on, Feng Wu should be today's saint, but sex is free, willing to be a person without restraint and no accommodation, so that the first emperor died a few days before the disappearance, the country can not be a day without a monarch has no choice but to pass on the mediocre qualifications and no deterrent of the eldest son Feng Lei, and helpless Feng Lei is a thin line, the chaotic ministers and thieves are ambitious, and they actually extend their magic hands to the palace, and all the princes who are sound in mind are all poisoned by thieves. The palace guards are widely criticized, and compared with the palace guards, the Thunder Emperor makes people feel that they hate iron and steel.
So everyone's eyes began to stare at the third prince Feng Wu, Feng Lei was in the prime of life, and it was not feasible to encourage the three princes to replace him. Although he hated that he would say goodbye for a few months without saying goodbye, he could only hope that he would get married and have countless children as soon as possible for the prince to choose.
The rise and fall of a country, time, life!
Because of this, what Fengwu hates the most is being mentioned for marriage. On weekdays, Feng Wu's expression is solemn, and others don't dare to breathe when they talk to him, and Shenlong sees the head but not the tail, even the people in the court may not have seen him, and few people say something in his ear.
"That's not what I meant......" Gu Li rode forward to explain.
I don't know why, obviously the prince is in front, but no matter how to drive the horse can not catch up with the prince, the prince's back is hidden from time to time, his head is still dizzy, the tree that was originally straight, now it looks oblique again, sitting on horseback is like riding a boat up and down, bumpy so that people's stomachs turn over the river and the sea do not vomit unpleasant......
Although Feng Wu didn't like to hear these words, he wouldn't be furious when he heard them, otherwise he wouldn't have heard them twice behind Gu Li.
Originally, he was giving Gu Li a cold face, but the speed of riding the horse was not fast, and he found that he did not keep up and specially slowed down the riding speed.
Gu Li didn't know what was wrong with him, so he had to shout "Lord Wang" with all his might, but he didn't make any sound when he reached his mouth.
Suddenly, a slight sound crack crossed his ears, Feng Wu grabbed the reins, settled down, noticed a trace of unusual taste, worried that Gu Li would not be able to cope with it, and looked back-
Gu Li was jumping up and down on the stirrups, and he was still crooked and pulling the horse in circles, his mouth opening and closing, and he didn't know whether he wanted to talk or vomit, like crazy......
"It's indecent!"
Feng Wu flew away from the horse and flashed to Gu Li's side, but it seemed that there was a wall blocking him, so he couldn't get in, so he had to stand still, put his hand in front of him to concentrate his thoughts, and shouted "Break!" There were many small cracks in his ears, which were so unpleasant that they made Feng Wu close his eyes and frown.
"Ahh Vomit, vomit ......"
Gu Li fell off his horse and hit his forehead, screaming miserably before he could touch it, he hurriedly held on to the tree and vomited.
Feng Mist's furrowed brow had not yet been released. Gu Li's mount, soy milk, was still jumping wildly, and he faintly felt his head swell, it stands to reason that the loud shout just now had cast a spell to dissolve the sound barrier here, and there shouldn't be such a reaction, but why is this......
Feng Wu carefully observed the surroundings step by step, and found a few white bones in the chaotic trees! Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of a stout tree trunk with a small, barely visible black cloth.
"Feng Yi, bring the sword."
After Gu Li finished vomiting, he leaned on the trunk of the tree and patted his chest and panted, and when he heard the prince shouting to himself, he hurriedly agreed: "Oh, oh, good!"
The soy milk was still playing in circles, and Gu Li didn't dare to get too close, thinking of the prince's face and not daring not to go, he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't beat the master" and jumped three times to get the sword, but he was almost kicked by the horse's hooves.
"Who is so immoral to set up the sound barrier...... Hey, what is it? ”
Gu Li said something in his ear, and Feng Wu glanced at him without explaining.
"Let go of the sword."
Hearing this, Gu Li pulled out the sword, put it horizontally at the height of his shoulders and let go of his hand. Feng Wu folded his hands, two fingers up, and the other three fingers clasped each other to carry the sword in front of him.
"Stand back."
"Huh? Oh......"
Gu Li retreated to the side and looked at Feng Wu's sword, from the position of the unknown black cloth, he couldn't help but be envious, if only he could be so powerful, until now, if he transported the sword himself, he would only stab indiscriminately, and occasionally his luck was unstable.
"It's ......" As the trunk was cleared, the contents of the tree became more and more visible, "Ah!! ”
"King, Lord...... What is this, this! ”
Feng Wu let go of his hand and grabbed the sword in front of him behind him, and gasped as he looked at the human figure embedded in the tree in front of him - because he had been trapped in the trunk for a long time, this person had already been trapped to death, and even formed a symbiote with the trunk, except for the clearly visible silhouette of the humanoid, the tree lines could be seen in other places on the body, including on clothes.
"This, this...... Is it a human or a ghost? Gu Li swallowed dryly.
"It's a hermit."
"Hermits? But don't the hermits all wear a big black robe, a black turban, and a black cloth on their faces? This person is almost like he is wearing a gown......"
"How many hermits have you met?"
Gu Li scratched his head - he hadn't seen any of them, they were all from books.
"You were wrong."
"Huh? What is wrong? ”
"It's not a sound barrier, it's the aftermath of the Spell."
"Ah...... Right! I've read in the book that the Breaking City Spell is specially used to deal with hermits, but ......" Gu Li squinted and glanced at the human figure in the tree, "The hermit who can stealth into the tree is a master, so isn't the person who uses the Breaking City Spell a higher hand?" What kind of hatred is it to trap people in trees for so long? ”
I don't know what kind of hatred and hatred there is for the time being, I only know that people who practice these two spells have always been incompatible, but there are really not many people who can force each other to be like this.
With a wave of his hand, Toyomi put the sawdust back in place, but ...... The sawdust did not move.
Oops! The spell of the city has the effect of banning people's mana, the more it is hard to deal with it, the greater the effect it plays, just now I took the aftermath of the spell as a sound barrier to break it, and also broke the hermit who was sealed in the trunk, which consumed mana, and the mana was gone for a while!
Fengwu clenched his fists and took a deep breath.
"Cut out a barrier and burn the tree."
"But I didn't bring a fire."
"Aren't you good at fire spells?"
"I ...... I can't control ......."
"So let you get out of the fence."
Gu Li looked at this dense forest and said, "In case ......"
"If you don't learn, you can't do it."
Feng Wu dropped such a sentence, and the sword was also inserted into the ground and returned to Gu Li. Gu Li lowered his head to look at the sword, clenched the scabbard, and pursed his lips tightly.
Gu Li stuck the scabbard at his waist, pulled out the sword on the ground and slashed it indiscriminately.
Feng Wu sat on the side and watched quietly, no matter how Gu Li vented - he had too many good days in Fengjing, he couldn't calm down to learn things, and how could he do it without suffering a little.
Feng Wu touched his stomach - hungry. Ordinary people can only keep their strength to work by eating three meals a day, and now they are no different from ordinary people. This time I miscalculated, and I was out of the house...... I forgot to bring something to eat...... I had to lean against the tree and close my eyes to rest.
Gu Li took care of himself and chopped trees and grass, opened a circle of isolation belts and looked back at the fog, perhaps wanting to be recognized. However, Feng Wu closed his eyes, Gu Li didn't call him, turned his head to look at the isolation zone he had set up, felt that it was not wide enough, and slashed out an additional distance half a person high. Then he wiped his sword with his sleeve and put it back in the scabbard.
Picking up a dead leaf with his right hand, he lit a flame in his hand, chanted a few incantations in his mouth, and put his two fingers together with his left hand to wave the flame towards the trunk of the tree and burned.
Gu Li's fire control technique is indeed not good at learning, if he hadn't carved out an extra half a distance, I am afraid that the entire forest would have to be ordered by him today.
In a few moments, the trunk of the tree burned out, and a small green bead appeared on the ground, smaller than a fingernail, if it weren't for its strange glow, Gu Li wouldn't have noticed it.
"Lord Wang." Gu Li handed the small beads he picked up to Feng Wu, "This is left over from the burning of that tree." ”
Feng Wu didn't speak, only put the beads in his sleeve, stood up and got on his horse, glanced at the pile of ashes, and said, "Let's go."
