The porridge in the pot was suddenly met with a basin of cold water.

The cook's fist froze in mid-air, half an inch away from the top of Wen Zhen's hair.

A man who grabbed the shopkeeper to beat him was soft, and the shopkeeper fell to the ground with a bang.

A few men who rolled up their sleeves and held Xiao Er turned back in amazement, and were almost overturned by Xiao Er.

The women, who wept and grabbed the burden, fell to their knees with a limp.

Everyone instantly froze in place, looking stunned in the troubled times.

In a moment of silence, a dark yellow light and shadow suddenly passed in front of everyone's eyes, many candles had been extinguished in the previous battle, and in the slightly dark hall, a yellow halo suddenly flashed, like a string of gentle little suns, or a fragment of starlight from the depths of the sky fell in the sky.

The light and shadow of the window lattice flowed by, and everyone subconsciously turned their heads, and they saw a large hanging lamp, and the stone with the chicken heart hanging leisurely was rising from the long street.

There were a lot of children laughing outside: "Put on the lights!" ”

At midnight on Chinese New Year's Eve, families put on lights and make wishes to the sky. May the rain be smooth in the coming year, the mountains and the sea will be clear, the war will not be prosperous, and the people will live in peace.

The many hanging lights, with a dim yellow and soft luster, flew over the long blue street, rubbed past the red New Year's lanterns, skimmed over the mossy eaves, and flew towards the deep blue night sky.

Like a flick of his fingers, the gods suddenly sprinkled a handful of night pearls in the night sky.

Countless people raised their heads, gently let go of their hands, and let go of their wishes for the harvest and peace, and their worries about the future and life.

Their eyes reflected the long sky like water, and the bright lights like countless moonlight.

Taking advantage of the wind, the flying lantern flew high into the air and flew out of the city.

At this moment, inside and outside the house, the entire main city of Changchuan fell into a silent prayer.

Those troubles and conspiracies, and the darkness that flowed like black blood all over the entire Yi family compound, all seemed to be quickly retreating under the gentle and quiet light at this moment.

Under the skylights.

Mrs. Duan stood in front of the window, playing with a glass bead in her hand, muttering in a low voice.

Yi Xiuding sat on the corner of the eaves of the opposite room in the courtyard where Wen Zhenyan lived, and the hanging lamp in his hand that had been made and had a blessing written on it was not placed.

She suddenly lowered her head, looked at the cornices, seemed to find something, and lay down again, her ears closer, and listened carefully.

After a moment, she frowned.

Yi Yuncen was on the horse, raising his head, and countless bright lights were reflected in his eyes.

The drenched Lin Feibai took the equally drenched Zhou Yuanzhi to ride a snatched horse and galloped wildly in the cold night, he did not hesitate to turn his real power and dry his and Zhou Yuanzhi's clothes, so that the heat around his body was like a white mist, and he looked like a pair of immortals riding the wind and prancing horses from a distance.

He was in a hurry to report the news, he had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery, and he didn't raise his head, and walked away against the countless yellow pearls in the sky, his long hair straightened by the wind.

Zhou Yuanzhi nestled in his arms, staring at the yellow stars dotted in the mountains and night, and suddenly raised his head slightly.

Like an unintentional touch in the ups and downs of the gallop, her lips brushed Lin Feibai's jaw intentionally or unintentionally.

Lin Feibai, who was already a little stiff from freezing, didn't notice it.

Zhou Yuanzhi's eyes wandered, smiled quietly, and nested in his arms again.

There is also a custom in Jianzhou, when you see countless bright lights at night, make a wish to them, and the heavens will hear it.

Thirty miles away from the camp in Huizhou, Qiu Tong, who hadn't slept all night, waited for the news he wanted and blew out the lights in his tent.

In the Huizhou camp, Lin Qing put a hanging lamp with very delicate fingers. It was so small that it was impossible to see as soon as it was put away, and a crooked-necked tree next to the camp was full of these little lamps, each more worn-out than the other.

The marching garrison could not put lights, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy, so every year he would make two super-small hanging lights, one to put and one to hang on the tree.

One is for the side, and one for himself.

He called this lamp "mosquito lamp". Small, patient, buzzing and singing, and can kiss the skin, flesh and blood blend.

How nice.

In the deep palace, although it was very late, the palace of Concubine De was still very lively, and everyone went into battle together, pasting a huge hanging lamp.

The lamp is big enough to fit three concubines.

This is one of Concubine De's special hobbies, she likes headlights, the bigger the better.

can pretend to be lonely in the deep palace, pretend to be full of grievances, pretend to yearn for the four seas, and pretend to be her in a dream.

You can imagine yourself taking the lamp, carrying the wind and clouds, crossing the mountains and seas, and falling to any place you want to land.

Behind her, the old lady Wen, who came to help, quietly wrote her blessings in the corner with a red pen.

May my daughter and grandson Ah Zhen be safe and prosperous.

……

When the yellow lights flew up, even Wen Zhen forgot about the hustle and bustle of Fang Cai, and looked up in fascination.

Yan Sui was beside her, held her hand tightly, and suddenly whispered in her ear, "This is my gift to you." ”

Wen Zhen was stunned, turned his head to look at him, Yan Sui's eyes also reflected the pearls, gathering the brilliance of heaven and earth in his eyes, "...... Although there is no Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. ”

Wen Zhen heard his resentment, and the corners of his eyes curved.

She suddenly stood on tiptoe and pecked at Yan Sui's lips.

The compensation for the lunch Chinese New Year's Eve meal is good.

Yan Sui was stunned, pressed her fingers to her lips, and smiled.

At that moment, his eyes were like a winter snow, slowly flowing, waiting for the clear water of spring.

He sighed softly in Wen Zhen's ear: "It's a pity. ”

Yan Sui complained as she stretched out her hand and gently swept away the cook's raised fist.

This time, it was like suddenly lifting the fixation, not only the cook, but everyone reacted and returned to the previous moment of the situation - the hidden owner of Huatianlou is suspected of robbing the people's children to eat to maintain their appearance!

And they are not the people of the Xichuan Yi family that everyone thinks!

The appearance of the people of the Xichuan Yi family in Changchuan is shocking enough, but what did the shopkeeper shout?

Your Highness!

There is no one in the surrounding area!

The only possibility is that His Royal Highness King Yi, who is legendary and violent and murderous, is currently outside the city!

Then this delicate girl is not the young lady of the Li family, but the real kitchen god Wen Zhen!

So she can't look down on this delicious Buddha jumping over the wall, so she arranged this play to quickly increase her fame and gain the favor of the people, she is already determined to take the city!

Yiwang and Wen Beijia have already infiltrated the city!

The emotions that calmed down when they saw the lights were turned on were instantly aroused by this fact, and with a bang, most of them were retreating, and many people rushed forward.

On the second floor, Elder Qiuwen was stunned, and a piece of food fell from his mouth.

Outside the door, Yi Xiuding, who came out to look for the two of them because he had discovered something about something, was stunned in the local area.

Behind a hidden screen in the corridor of the restaurant, two people glanced at each other and laughed.

At the end of the street, Mrs. Duan's sedan chair suddenly appeared, but when she reached the entrance of the street, she was blocked by a dense crowd.

Behind her, many remnants of the eighteen tribes gathered.

In the Huatian Building, the angry cook was stunned, he didn't quite understand that he was being used as a harlequin in a play today, he only felt that his face was hot, and the fist couldn't be swung down.

He couldn't swing down, but more people rushed up, and more than one person took advantage of the cover of his tall body, flashing ghostly, and the various weapons in his hands flashed with ghostly light, heading straight for Wen Zhen Yansui.

Wen Zhen Yansui had already prepared, and flashed lightly and skillfully, but more and more people poured up.

……

Outside the gates of the main city.

Under the high city walls, at some point, a group of soldiers came silently, their spears were cold, their iron armor was cold, and their shoulder armor was imprinted with golden unicorns.

Torrents of iron armor emerge from the horizon and merge into the night, and under the city gates, they are lined up in neat columns, horizontal and vertical, like blades.

Fan Budu's horse passed through the camp like a ghost, and the black-armored and weak general on the horse, with a pair of slender eyes and a cold gaze, raised his eyes to look at the pale gray city wall, and listened carefully to the sound of the wind.

His lieutenants all wore helmets and armor, and looked coldly at the towering high city.

Fan Buxiu took a long breath and said to the people around him: "It's been so long, it's finally over." ”

The people around him laughed.

"If you want me to say, you are too cautious to send half of the people to lure Qiu Tong into the trap and let me bring half of the people myself." Fan Budao, "Lin Qing and Qiu Tong really did not send troops to support the imperial court. So how can the full dozen dozen people, no more than 4,000 people, be able to compete with my tens of thousands of troops? Not to mention the two-story city gate, there are also 10,000 guards and affiliated families in the Yi family's compound, and in addition, there are the people of the entire city! There is no hope of being enslaved by the imperial court! The city is full of enemies! Two flanks, one person spits on a mouthful of spit is enough to drown them! ”

The people around him: "Yan Sui Wenzhen is both talented and not to be underestimated." ”

"It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, so she is smarter. has the power of gods and ghosts, and there is no room to speak in the face of absolute strength. After all, the war is really fought by flesh and blood, and no matter what tricks and tricks, it is useless. Fan Buqi shook his head and saw countless dim hanging lights slowly floating in front of him, "I can't imagine that in such a situation, they have the possibility of winning." ”

The people around him were silent for a long time, and finally said, "I can't think of it either." ”

Fan Buqi laughed very happily.

"A yellow-mouthed child relied on his noble status, a female cook relied on the favor of the royal family, and was touted by that group of charming officials over the years, so he thought that he had really become a god and a demon...... Be careful to get busy and make wedding clothes for others in the end! ”

Ahead, the hanging lights are swaying, about to float above the head of the Golden Qijun.

"The gates didn't open in time, and they didn't respond to my signals." Fan Buqi smiled contemptuously, "It's a bit of a skill, the team outside the city is gone, has it infiltrated into the city and controlled the city gate?" ”

The people around him said slowly: "Then let's attack the city." Let them listen to the voice of the Golden Qijun as well. ”

"Order!" Fan Bu took a long whip and pointed it, "Siege!" ”

……

Inside the city, everyone suddenly heard a loud bang.

The sound seemed to sound in the distance, but it could still suppress the hustle and bustle of the street, passing through the huge half of the city, and reaching everyone's ears, which showed the momentum.

The people inside and outside the Huatian Building couldn't help but turn their heads in unison.

After a moment of silence, there was the sound of clattering footsteps on the bluestone slab.

"Attack, attack, attack...... City—"

Today's shock came one after another, and everyone was almost numb, and someone turned his head and asked, "Is the imperial army attacking the city?" ”

"It's not! No! It's the Golden Army! The Golden Qi Army is attacking the city! ”

Everyone: "......"

After a while, someone asked, "This...... The Jin Qi Army was rebelled by the imperial court? ”

Everyone saw that the prince of the imperial court appeared in the main city, and naturally the main city was already under the control of the imperial court, coupled with the rumors that the previous Jin Qi army had been broken up by Lin Qing's sneak attack, they preconceived that the imperial court had won, and it should be the imperial army's army that came in, and besides, the Jin Qi army was the patron saint of Changchuan, how could it attack its own city?

"It's not! No! The messenger was out of breath, and almost shouted in a broken voice, "It's the Jin Qi Army, saying that the imperial court outside the city has been pulled out to make the team, and he wants to enter the city to clear out the court spies that have infiltrated the city, and return my Changchuan to the peace of the past!" ”

Immediately there was humanity: "That's our own army!" Why do you need a siege! Haven't the gates been opened? ”

The man: "Yes! I don't know when the city gate has been infiltrated by the court spies, and it hasn't been opened yet! That's why the Golden Qi Army ordered the siege of the city, and warned all the fathers and elders that the time has come for you to defend your homeland! The people of the court, from King Yi down, have acted perversely, shamelessly, in vain attempts to take away my homeland, disturb my peace, kill my family, and harm my people's livelihood! Now most of these people have infiltrated the main city, spreading rumors, creating panic, and vainly trying to destroy my Changchuan from the inside, so after Commander Fan got the order of the head of the family, he worked tirelessly and led the troops to come here all day and night, just to save me Changchuan and save my people! Please all the fathers and elders of my main city, don't be shocked by rumors, don't be bewitched by lies, stick to your heart, stick to Changchuan, help me Jin Qi open the city gate, investigate and deal with spies, and kill anyone who finds suspicious! ”

He jumped on a high platform again, raised his arms and shouted: "At this very moment, there is no need to hesitate!" But spill a drop of blood for me Changchuan, and I will be a hero rewarded by the Yi family in the future! ”

The sound of the siege was fierce, and the sound of shouting and killing came from afar, coupled with this person's passionate tone and passionate expression, the people's eyes burned and looked at him, thinking of the human meatballs they had just seen, the broken infant corpse, the anger and agitated emotions, and instantly ignited the blood!

The man shouted again: "Please go home quickly for the old and weak, and the young and strong will quickly form a team and ...... the prince of the court and the demon woman here."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Sui shook his hand, and he fell to the sky, with a broken porcelain piece embedded in his throat, and blood sprayed wildly.

As if the passionate music was suddenly interrupted, the man was still waving his hands excitedly when he fell into the crowd, and the people below subconsciously caught him, and was sprayed with sticky blood, perhaps this behavior was too fierce and arrogant, so that people were stunned for a while before turning to Yan Sui suddenly, and immediately someone burst into shouting: "The shaft is rampant!" The crowd roared and pounced.

Yan Sui dragged Wen Zhen's hand and left.

The crowd hula followed.

At the other end of the long street, Mrs. Duan, who had just arrived, turned back again, and Yi Xiuding was stunned on the long street for a long time, until the sweat on her back was dry, and then she chased after her like waking up from a dream.

She walks quickly, but very mechanically, her heart is like numbness, she wants to cry but wants to laugh, people are running in the wind, the light and shadow in front of her are flying, from the first time she saw the town, to when she didn't know when her mind sprouted, and now she learned the truth through the crowd, it seems to be very unexpected, and it doesn't seem to be unexpected, maybe deep down in her heart may not have thought about such a possibility, but she doesn't want to reveal it clearly, because when it comes to unveiling, those things that were originally thought to be beautiful were lost.

It was on the corner of the high wind eaves that night, the man was dressed in moonlight and looked at each other, and the cold wind of the first month was like a hail, and only three points of bitter and spicy fragrance remained.

Ahead, Yan Sui and Wen Zhen didn't care about the sudden revelation of this identity, nor did they care about the various tastes in the hearts of those people at the moment when the identity was revealed, they were speeding under the moon, heading in the direction of the Yi family compound.

They did not go through the main gate of the compound, but went around and went around to the northwest corner of the compound, where there were also corner towers and moats of the compound, but because it was the back, there was no ice wall arranged. Behind the high courtyard wall is a clearing, and beyond that is a small lake.

The people chasing saw the two of them running towards this place, and they were all surprised, running here, the people at the head of the Yi family's compound could shoot arrows, and attack before and after, isn't this self-defeating?

But after thinking about it, if you run outside the city, there will be the Golden Qi Army outside the city, and wherever the people of the court flee, it will be a two-way attack, and it will be a dead end.

People are more excited and chase harder.

Yan Sui suddenly raised his head.

At this time, the city is full of hanging lights, the outer city floats to the outside of the city, but the inner city has not yet floated out, according to the direction of the wind tonight, sooner or later it will float outside the city. At this moment, there are clusters of hanging lights, passing by the northwest corner.

The wonderful thing is that this batch of hanging lights, obviously scattered, but floating and floating, gathered in the northwest direction, surrounded by a large group.

At this time, the guards on the corner tower had already seen Yan Sui Wenzhen, and the large group of people following behind them, they were all startled, and they blew the trombone on the corner tower and warned loudly. The children of the Yi family, who were mixed in the crowd below, explained the situation and shouted: "Hurry up and release the arrow!" Shooting King Yi to death is the first credit! ”

The crossbow and bow rolling on the corner tower sounded, the sound of iron-armored swords rubbing was loud, and someone had a strong voice, shouting: "Shoot!" ”

At the same time, Yan Sui also drank: "Shoot!" ”

At the same time, Yan Sui's voice clearly overpowered the other party, and the inner city heard it clearly, and people were stunned, and the sharp sound of breaking the sky was continuous, partly downward, partly towards the sky!

Downward, there was a crossbow on the corner tower, shooting towards Wen Zhen Yansui.

The upward ones were sharp arrows shot out of nowhere, shooting at those hanging lights!

The arrow towards Wen Zhen Yansui naturally couldn't be shot.

But the lights were not as flexible as Wen Zhen and Yan Sui, there were countless sounds, the yellow light gradually went out, and those lights fell.

When the lights fell, they fell, although they all fell to the northwest corner and the corner tower, and the people in the Yi family compound didn't care too much.

And then there was a bang!

After those hanging lights landed, almost all of them exploded, and some of them fell on the corner tower, and suddenly the crossbow was shattered, the flesh and blood of the guards were torn, and the city wall seemed to suddenly become mud and sand rolling down in the billowing black smoke and red fire, and half of it collapsed silently under the loud noise, and the blue-black poisonous water in the moat of the inner city immediately poured into the inner city, and the guards who were lucky enough not to die in the round of explosion just now, some people were rushing down the corner tower to escape, and they didn't want to step into the sticky black water, and they were still stunned and looked down, wanting to pull out their feet, But as soon as he pulled out a piece of white bones that were still flesh and blood, when he finally reacted and fell down screaming, half of the skeleton floated on the surface of the poisonous water in a blink of an eye.

Another part of the hanging lamp fell in the northwest corner, and after a more violent explosion sound than the night of the Danyaju, a black wall collapsed, and the ground of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple was turned over, and the huge copper door was blown alive and smashed on the ground, smashing the last piece of black ground open, and the gap cracked for a long time. Some white and gray things were exposed.

There, it's the Black Prison.

Where the Yi family's torture hall is located, Yi Xiuding was once taken away and squatted by the elders of the punishment for fabricated charges, and was brought back to the seven-colored hell by Yan Sui not long after.

This is probably the most bizarre celebration in history, the most ferocious lantern.

The black flames brought by the hanging lamp destroyed half of the black prison, and some figures escaped in confusion, and two of them were quite familiar, they were Elder Li Xing and Yi Yanwu.

These two "losers" in the Council of Elders have been hiding in the black prison.

But more people's eyes fell on the black prison.

The city gate in the Yi family's compound was shocked, and the people who chased after it were also frightened, but seeing that the explosion only injured the Yi family's city wall, and his location was safe, he didn't move.

The most important thing is that with the collapse of the inner city wall, the mysterious Yi family compound was exposed to the world for the first time, and the people couldn't help but be curious and probe their brains.

And then the black prison was blown up to the ground, and Sikong Yu appeared with the people of Tianji Mansion, it was they who summoned the hanging lights placed in the compound together, and concentrated on blowing up the walls of the Yi family's inner courtyard and the black prison.

These lamps released by the Yi family were naturally made by the subordinates, and Yi Renli passed through Yangnanyue, and rebelled to buy many people, and these people had already done their tricks when making lamps.

As soon as the gunpowder bomb exploded, the flow of people in the Yi family's compound quickly retreated.

Then another roar sounded, this time it was not more direct than the shock just now, obviously in the distance, but the ground shook violently, endlessly, and the ground seemed to appear like a giant beast that was constantly arching, and people kept standing and falling, looking back in horror to see what had happened.

The batch of hanging lights that had been flying outside the city suddenly disappeared, and the sky instantly returned to its gloomy and cold, accompanied by that dull vibration, which exploded like thunder, but there was a feeling of silence, and the sky seemed to shake out a crack because of this, taking away the prosperity of the world for a moment.

Someone on the other side of the street rushed to the front and shouted, "The army outside the city has been bombed as well—someone has rushed in—"

He shouted so headlessly that the crowd was already in shock, and instantly fell into a commotion, and the constantly shaking ground made them mistakenly think it was an earthquake, and subconsciously ran to the nearest safest place, and there was a lake near the northwest corner of the Yi family, and it was not fun to run around and fall into the water under the dark sky, everyone saw that a gap had been blown up in the Yi family compound in front of them, and the broken large stones cushioned the poisonous moat, and there was an endless Yi family's racetrack, so they all followed the shouting person and rushed to the Yi family's compound.

With such a mentality, people rushed in, and some people refused to give up, pointing at Wen Zhen and Yan Sui and saying, "Fathers! Anyway, these few must be spies, take them down! ”

A group of people rushed towards Wen Zhen and Yan Sui, Yan Sui turned around and took Wen Zhen up the high wall, his clothes were scattered in the midnight wind, and there was not much emotion in his eyes, only a faint trace of anger.

With that kind of look, the shrouded person suddenly felt that he had become an ant.

A group of people had already rushed over, and suddenly someone screamed: "Bones! Dead person! ”

There were more and more screaming people, and there were also some women among them, Wen Zhen stood on a high place, looking down, it was the black prison that had been blown up.

The seven layers of the black prison, the legend is only used to deal with and punish the Yi family, each layer has a pool of blood to remove the corpses of these sinners, and now the blood pool has been blown up, and there is no imaginary sediment, but the ground under the blood pool is cracked, showing that there is still space under the head, layer by layer of white flowers, all of which are corpses.

There are elderly people, there are adults, there are children......

The corpses are in various states, rotten, intact, torn, poisoned, and in various forms, not as if they were tortured to death, but as if they have gone through various trials.

Because next to the pile of corpses, there is also a space with a lot of bottles and cans, poisonous insects, rats and ants.

The scene of midnight smoke and piles of bones was so terrifying that people gasped and many people retreated with their legs limp.

The respected Dr. Zhou had been in the crowd, and when he retreated, out of professional habits, he couldn't help but look at the pile of corpses a few more times, and then he suddenly lost his voice and said, "This ...... Isn't this the second Liu who disappeared last month?! ”
