Chapter 1146: Why not?
Yi Qinghan also flew over, and he looked at Long Xilin: "Now, our lives are in your hands, why not try?" ”
In order to buy time for Long Xilin, Yi Qinghan also flew over and joined the battle group.
Long Xilin took two steps back with the sword, looked down, and really couldn't see the power of this sword.
However, he also knew that with a few of them, he might not be able to defeat this monster today.
In the end, there was no way, Long Xilin gritted his teeth and raised his sword to his palm.
The sword was rusty and blunt, and it took a little strength for Long Xilin to cut through his palm.
Blood poured out and stained the rusty sword.
A miraculous scene happened, the blood, like a spark of fire, burned the rust on the rusty sword, and the rust disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing the fiery red sword body, shining with a scorching light.
In just a moment, the originally rusty iron sword turned into a divine weapon that shone with fiery red and golden light.
Long Xilin was also surprised, seeing that Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan on the other side were put in two mouths by the gluttony, and seeing that the two people were about to be swallowed by the gluttony, Long Xilin took the sword and flew over.
He stabbed it towards the position of the armpit of the glutton.
The gluttonous man was busy devouring Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan, but he didn't expect Long Xilin to suddenly fly over and be stabbed by Long Xilin's sword.
Miraculously, the body that was invulnerable just now, at this time, it was a "poof" sound, and it was stabbed by the dragon sword in Long Xilin's hand.
"Roar!" The gluttony let out a terrible scream, shook his head and tail, and Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan were thrown out of the distance by the glutton.
Long Xilin increased his strength, stabbed the gluttonous mantle and pushed it forward, until it was pushed under an earth peak in front of him, and stabbed him to the ground with the Dragon Sword.
In the continuous screams, the gluttonous man gradually withered and became smaller, and finally turned into a small animal the size of a kitten, lying on the ground unable to move.
Long Xi pulled out the You Long Sword with a swish, then turned around and flew to the high platform, using the You Dragon Sword to cut off the vines on Angelica's body.
Angelica suddenly lost his restraints, fell forward, and fell into his arms.
At this time, Yi Qinghan was not lightly injured, he looked up, and saw Long Xilin hugging her slender waist and flying down from the high platform with her.
The clothes on both of them were a little dirty, but they still didn't hide their demeanor.
Yi Qinghan thought that Long Xilin had just used his own blood to cut the Dragon Sword, although he didn't want to believe it in his heart, he couldn't help but accept this reality - Long Xilin was the true Dragon Prince.
He looked at Angelica and knew in his heart that he and she would never be together in this life.
In the depths of his heart, a desolation welled up.
Mo Yan was also seriously injured, but he still got up from the ground with difficulty, staggered to Yi Qinghan's side, and reached out to help Yi Qinghan: "Childe, how are you?" ”
Yi Qinghan held Mo Yan's hand and reluctantly stood up, and then the two of them trembled and walked towards Angelica and Long Xilin.
Among the four people, although Angelica has been imprisoned, he has not been injured much, and although Long Xilin has been injured, he is born with a physique that is different from ordinary people, so the injury is not a big problem.
On the contrary, it was Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan, who were more seriously injured.
As soon as the four of them approached, Yi Qinghan's feet were weak and he was about to fall, but thanks to Mo Yan's support, he barely fell.
Angelica hurriedly squatted down to check the injuries of Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan.
Angelica took out the best wound medicine and wanted to give Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan a dressing.
Long Xilin stretched out his hand and took it: "I'll come." ”
Although Long Xilin has always disliked Yi Qinghan, just now, he was able to kill that monster, thanks to the Dragon Sword that Yi Qinghan sent him, so, at this moment, he didn't hate Yi Qinghan so much in his heart.
After giving them the medicine, Long Xilin looked down at the two of them and asked, "Can you still go?" ”
Although Yi Qinghan accepted the fact that he couldn't be with Angelica, he still didn't want to admit it in front of Angelica, he frowned, reluctantly got up from the ground, and said recklessly: "It's okay." ”
However, as soon as he stood up, the wound was touched, and he hissed in pain.
At this moment, the voice of Long Xilin's subordinates was heard not far away.
"The Emperor's ......"
Long Xilin raised his voice: "Over here." ”
His team ran towards this direction.
Seeing them running closer, Long Xilin pointed at Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan: "They are injured, take them back to the barracks to take care of them." ”
"Yes."
Philadelphia was captured, but it was a dead city.
By dawn, the street that should have been bustling was deserted.
The doors of the shops were closed, there was not a single pedestrian on the street, and the whole city was lifeless.
Long Xilin ordered to dig a big pit in the suburbs and bury all the bones of the people who died in Philadelphia into the big pit.
After that, Long Xilin ordered the army to enter the city and rest in Philadelphia for a few days.
Early the next morning, the army set out again and went straight to Chang'an.
……
In the palace, Long Yichen was reclining on the beauty couch and taking a nap.
"Report!"
The informant hurriedly ran in and knelt in front of Long Yichen with a "plop".
"Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, Long Xilin led a large group of men and horses to fight outside the gate of Chang'an City."
"What?!" Long Xilin sat up from the beauty couch and asked, "Philadelphia guarded by General Purple has been breached?" ”
The man nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”
Long Yichen frowned and thought for a while, then asked, "How many people are there and where are they now?" ”
The informant said: "There are about forty or fifty thousand in total, and now the troops are coming to the city." ”
Long Yichen nodded: "I know, you go down and explore." ”
"Yes."
After the news soldiers went down, Long Yichen was inexplicably excited in his heart.
Hahaha, they're finally here! That's great!
Long Yichen was bored with the monster occupying his body, and he frowned and warned: "Don't hurt her!" ”
The monster laughed wildly in his stomach: "It's not your turn to point fingers at the deity." ”
Long Yichen grabbed his chest and threatened fiercely: "If you dare to hurt her, I will kill myself, so that you have no container to use." ”
The monster sneered: "Do you think that the deity must be you?" If you die, I can find another man to be my puppet. ”
"Good! If you are looking for it, you will seek it now. ”
For days, the monster had been forcing him to drink blood every day.
Although he was controlled by this monster, his sense of smell, taste, and various receptors were still good, and those disgusting habits that were unacceptable to humans tormented him every day.
The monster laughed a few times in his stomach, and no longer mentioned the matter of eating angelica.
"Then you go and get Long Xilin back! As long as I absorb his essence, not only can I let go of that angelica, but I can also stop eating those ordinary people in the future. ”
When Long Yichen heard this, he was immediately excited: "Really, can my body also recover as before?" ”
"Naturally, from now on, you don't need to drink blood anymore, you can maintain the face of the status quo, and you can stay young forever."
Hearing this, Long Yichen was also in high spirits and excited.
"Someone, bring me my armor."
The eunuch under his command agreed, turned to go down, and after a while, came up with his armor in his hand.
Long Xilin put on his armor, held his sword, went out and rode on his horse, and walked towards the city tower.
He stood on top of the high city tower, looked down, and saw that fifty meters away, Long Xilin was riding on horseback, standing at the forefront, and behind him, there were many soldiers lined up neatly.
Because he wanted to take Long Xilin's living person, Long Yichen raised the sword in his right hand and said loudly: "Long Xilin is plotting rebellion, I want to capture him alive and pay tribute in front of my father's mausoleum. ”
When the soldiers on the city wall heard this, they were all stunned.
The other party's soldiers came to the city, but the emperor said that he wanted to catch them alive, how to catch them?
Do you want to open the gates of the city and go out to catch them?
And at this moment, Long Xi was on the side, but he took out a loudspeaker and shouted: "Long Yichen is the embodiment of the demon, killing the king and killing his father, plotting rebellion and usurping the throne, he is a demon who eats people. ”
When the guards at the gates heard this, they were skeptical.
After all, they are all aware of what has happened in Chang'an City recently, and some people have also participated in the pursuit and investigation of missing persons.
However, no one knows how those people in Chang'an City disappeared, and so far, the truth has not been investigated.
Now, they were all shocked when they heard Long Xilin shouting such words.
Could it be that the disappearance case in Chang'an City is really related to Long Yichen?
However, Long Yichen is the prince of Longling Kingdom, and they have known since they were children that King Changle is a personable son, how can he be a demon?
Long Xilin heard the voice below, looked back at the generals on his left and right, and asked coldly, "Do you believe the words of the traitor?" ”
The two generals trembled, and hurriedly replied: "Back to the emperor, the words of the traitor, the ministers naturally don't believe it." ”
"Then don't shout and refute!"
The two generals received the order and immediately shouted below.
"The traitor Hugh wants to talk nonsense, the emperor is the true son of heaven, how can it be a demon, I think you are a demon, don't believe him!"
On the first day, the two sides faced off in a war of scolding.
It wasn't until the evening that Long Xilin finally retreated with his army.
After that, Long Xilin found a few confidants to come over to discuss the next move.
As he spoke, there was a knock at the door.
Long Xilin motioned for everyone to stop the discussion, and Long Xilin asked a person to go over and open the door.
The door opened, and Mo Yan and Yi Qinghan walked in.
Long Xilin looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "What advice does Gongzi Yi have?" ”
Yi Qinghan: "I have a few friends in Chang'an City, if the emperor needs it, I can contact them to open the city gate." ”
Long Xilin waved his hand at the others: "You go down first." ”
After the others left, Long Xilin asked Yi Qinghan: "Are you sure?" ”
Yi Qinghan nodded: "Yes, moreover, the top three in the Jinshi exam with me this time, Tanhua and Bangyan are all good friends of mine, they were arranged by Emperor Changle to investigate the case of the disappearance of the population in the capital, I think they may be more than lucky now." ”
"In that case, who else can you contact?"
Yi Qinghan: "Wang Feng, the deputy general of the city gate, is my good friend, I can contact him." ”
Long Xilin nodded: "Okay, you can try it." ”
Yi Qinghan nodded in agreement.
After that, Yi Qinghan and Mo Yan turned around and left.
……
In the evening, the two guards stood on top of the tower, looking at the dim sky, and were slightly distracted for a moment.
After that, one of the guards came down from the castle tower, and the other hurriedly followed.
"General, please stay."
Deputy General Wang Feng chased after the main general Zhang Peng and said in a low voice.
Zhang Peng looked back at him and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Wang Feng looked left and right, and said mysteriously: "General, can you take a step to speak." ”
Zhang Peng glanced at him meaningfully, and then nodded: "Let's go." ”
The two went to the general's room and closed the door.
The Lord will ask, "How?" Do you have something to tell me? ”
Wang Feng said cautiously: "General, don't you think the emperor is a little abnormal?" ”
"What? Did you really listen to Long Xilin's words and suspect that the emperor was a demon? ”
Wang Feng hurriedly helped the general to the table and sat down, "General, listen to me, since the emperor came back, the children of our Chang'an City have disappeared one after another, doesn't the general feel strange?" ”
Zhang Peng pondered for a moment, then nodded: "It is indeed very strange. ”
Wang Feng said again: "The most strange thing is the emperor's attitude, although he sent his men to investigate this matter, but the investigators died so much, and still did not find out why, and the emperor was not angry." ”
Zhang Peng frowned: "This matter is already strange, even if the emperor is angry, it is useless, doesn't this just show that the emperor is benevolent and can't bear to anger the officials?" You even suspect that the emperor is a demon. ”
Wang Feng shook his head: "I don't doubt the emperor, I just think that there must be demons in our Chang'an City, since Prince An's slogan is to eliminate demons, then why don't we open the city gate and invite Prince An in." ”
"Huh?! You are crazy, you are going to open the city gate and invite Prince An into the city, don't you want to live anymore? If the emperor knows, then our lives will not be guaranteed. ”
Zhang Peng looked at the lieutenant in disbelief.
Wang Feng said: "General, if you let the demons run rampant, one day, the claws of the demons will reach out to our children and grandchildren, at that time, it will be too late to regret it, now it seems that Emperor Changle as the emperor, there is no ability to eradicate the demons at all, now is an extraordinary period, the emperor should be a capable person to live in."
If Prince An can help us eradicate the demons, why can't we serve Prince An as the emperor?
What's more, if we go now to help Prince An open the city gate, then Prince He'an will settle in Chang'an, and the two of us will be great heroes, do you think you will kill two birds with one stone? ”
Zhang Peng frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "What if Prince An can't eradicate the demons?" ”
Wang Feng lowered his voice and whispered, "I wonder if you have heard about Philadelphia?" Philadelphia has now become a real ruined city, and there is no one in it, presumably the people inside have been eaten by demons, but when Emperor Changle was in power, he didn't care about Philadelphia's affairs.
