Chapter 156: Fire Phoenix
Although I had already confirmed the identity of the male corpse in the sarcophagus, I couldn't help but continue to urge the true qi to let the bronze mirror reveal the truth it had recorded.
I saw that the clouds in the mirror had opened and the fog had dispersed, and the scene had switched back to the Nanzhao Palace. From the words of the guests at the banquet, we learned that this was the situation when the king of Nanzhao, who had quelled the rebellion and unified the six edicts, had chosen an auspicious day to convene a group banquet for all the kings.
At the banquet, Luo Quan responded to the king's request and was ordered to perform strange magic and secret techniques at the banquet.
I saw that Luo Quan, who was dressed in a black monk's robe and covered with a scarf on his head, put down his staff, bare hands and bare feet, and only wore the six-fold treasure robe sewn by five-colored crow feathers, and walked to the center of the field first, calmly put on a posture, and waved his hand at the dozens of Nanzhao warriors who were opening their bows and arrows a hundred steps away.
Those brave and warlike Nanzhao warriors saw the national teacher speak, looked at each other, but still obeyed his greeting, immediately put on a well-trained posture, pulled out the Baishi longbow, and shot towards the expressionless Luo Quan.
"Whoosh! Whoosh ......"
For a while, the arrows shot like raindrops from all directions towards Luo Quan in the middle of the field, but they all broke off on his Liuhe treasure clothes that were as light as a crow's feather and as thin as a cicada's wings.
And that's not all.
I saw that above the high hall, the majestic King Nanzhao sneered, waved his big hand, and ordered someone to bring a cauldron more than three meters deep. But when he heard the order of King Nanzhao, all his subordinates brought some firewood and set up an oil pot outside the main hall, and after a while, they burned the big pot of hot oil until it was hot.
The boiling heat wave rushed towards the kings, forcing several princes who sat close to them to sit still, so they had to stand up shamelessly and run to stand behind the king.
On the other hand, Na Luo Quan was not affected by the heat wave at all, I saw him pacing in front of the oil pot with his bare feet, walking leisurely, and actually tried the "water" first as if he was bathing, and then jumped into the cauldron without hesitation. The hot oil splashed hot, and there was a heat wave with a "bang" - a compelling oil splash.
"Oops!"
Seeing that there was no movement after Luo Quan entered the pot, not only were the princes stunned, but the concubines and queens who accompanied them were so frightened that they covered their faces and screamed.
In everyone's hearts, they are probably frightened, and they sigh that such a good life is lost in this big oil pot like a bathtub.
Unexpectedly, the boiling oil pot boiled a stick of incense, but when I saw the oil in the pot, a figure had already come out, and I got up without touching the oil star, and I was still full of treasure when I landed.
The person in front of him is not the Luo Quan who does not change his face and is calm and relaxed, which one else can it be?
And that's not all.
I saw Luo Quan standing under His Royal Highness, with a little exertion, his feet had sunk into the ground nearly a foot away, and then his hands flipped over, and a cold wind had already blown in his palms.
After blowing again, a thin layer of cold frost had formed on the hot oil pan, and the hot oil in the pan gradually solidified into a clear oil cake.
After the last blow, a gust of snow wind had swirled in the center of the field, and in an instant, the oil pot as the center, a radius of ten zhang was frozen into a huge ice sculpture, and the crystal clear ice crystal center was naturally the deep pot full of clear oil crystals.
"Good!"
The relatives of the six kings and relatives who were watching saw Luo Quan's amazing performance, how could anyone not be impressed by him, and I don't know who started and shouted out of thin air, "Okay!" In an instant, the originally silent crowd shouted one after another.
Seeing this, King Nanzhao was naturally happy, and after announcing the opening of the banquet with a smile, all the kings also expressed their surrender one after another. Even the most ambitious family, no matter how much they ignore it, behaves respectfully at this time.
Luo Quan, who was on the side, saw that King Nanzhao was overjoyed when he saw that the kings bowed down to him, and he couldn't help but have a subtle sneer on the corner of his mouth. I saw him silently walk next to the king, look at the neighboring prince who came forward to toast arrogantly, and whispered a few words in his ear to King Nanzhao.
Seeing the king's eyes suddenly glance at Princess Ava, who was sitting dignified and quiet, I can guess that Luo Quan should be instigating King Nanzhao to use her as a bargaining chip for marriage and marry to the neighboring prince.
Sure enough, I saw that the king of Nanzhao, who was strong in wine, waved his hand to stop the musician, stood up, glanced at his daughter, and really ordered in public to marry Princess Ava to the neighboring prince, in order to wish the two countries a good marriage between Qin and Jin.
Princess Ava, who was caught off guard and learned the news, was like five thunderbolts, but she was helpless, she lowered her head helplessly and thought for a while, and finally walked away excitedly.
"Watch her!"
Although the king of Nanzhao was displeased, he still believed that he was in control of the overall situation, and only waved his hand to ask his guards to guard the princess's boudoir, and continued to enjoy the flattery of the kings.
And Luo Quan on the side, taking advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, turned around, turned into a big bird, and flew silently outside the royal city.
What happened after that turned out to be exactly what I expected. The cunning Luo Quan found the simple woodcutter without much effort.
He first became the princess's wet nurse, and told the hunter brother who was concerned about Princess Ava's marriage to his lover. Subsequently, Luo Quan immediately transformed into a kind old woman, calling herself a mountain god, and taught some quick change techniques to the hunter brother who had no doubt in order to save his lover.
So, the script was completely in accordance with Luo Quan's planning, and in the end, like a legend handed down, the hunter brother was finally led step by step by Luo Quan to a situation of no return, and was slapped by him under the bottom of the Erhai Sea, turning into a stone mule that could never turn over.
Seeing this, I was still planning to continue to see if Luo Quan had done anything to the corpse of the martyred princess Ava, but suddenly I sensed in my heart that the ghostly demon was leading more fierce and vicious monsters from the other passages of the stone chamber to besiege us.
Really, can't you stop the meeting? Can you still have fun?!
I was about to start arranging the defense, but Sharon on the side only looked into the sarcophagus, and when I saw her, the careful foreign girl pointed to a white jade gem inlaid in the lining of the sarcophagus, and said to me:
"I remember my mother said that China has the traditional craft of embalming with gemstones. Does this big gem have this purpose? ”
That's right!
After being reminded by Sharon, it suddenly dawned on me, and I suddenly remembered the archaeological knowledge that Ah Xia had introduced, and immediately used my mental eye to observe, and sure enough, I discovered the secret of the sarcophagus relying on the jade qi of gems to maintain the immortality of the two corpses.
"Sharon! You're such a genius! Suddenly, I couldn't help but turn my head and give Sharon a thumbs up, and heartily gave her a thumbs up.
My method is very simple: among the 36 strategies handed down in China since ancient times, isn't there a trick called "encircling Wei to save Zhao"?
Now that we have determined that the male corpse in the white jade sarcophagus in front of us is Master Luo Quan, and the female corpse is Princess Ava, who is the guy's crush, then even if we don't see the follow-up content recorded in the bronze mirror, at least one thing is obvious: this corpse must be what Luo Quan wants to preserve in every possible way!
So, even in the face of a large number of enemies, I'm afraid of a ball!
"Which one dares to go on! Lao Tzu first crushed this orb that maintained the immortality of the corpse! "When I saw the corpse monsters in the passages in all directions, I was not worried at all, but I was afraid to play the tricks, for fear that the cunning ghosts hiding in the shadows would not hear clearly and see the truth!
Sure enough, this trick really worked. The resentful spirit, which had always been the dragon's sight, had to come out of the shadow of the cave, and after drinking away the wailing corpse monsters, the cunning creature finally reluctantly walked up to the light of my pathfinder flashlight.
Hehe, you also have today, you have played with us for so long, and now you are finally willing to show your face? Let my brother take a good look at your vicious and shameless grimace!
Who knows, after looking at it, not only me, but even Sharon beside me, couldn't help but be taken aback-
The resentful grimace under the long hair turned out to be not the Luo Quan I expected! I saw that the handsome and fair-skinned face looked exactly the same as the dignified and serene Princess Ava in the coffin!
What's the situation?! Could it be that the one who has been doing the blame and harm all along is actually the poignant and holy Princess Ava in the story?!
Just when we were stunned for a little more than a second, the monster suddenly wiped his face, and his face had quietly transformed into another face that touched our hearts more and more.
Seeing the deep blue eyes, golden hair, thin and slender figure, and resentful and helpless eyes, needless to say, I also understood that the person in front of me was naturally Sharon's half-sister.
Presumably, what caused Sharon to leave the camp alone before should have been the vivid illusion in front of her, right? It seems that the resentful soul after a successful plan is probably because the determined Sharon has not much to do, so he chooses to repeat the old trick, using this trick to play with her mind, and is ready to confuse her to deal with me!
Shameless! But if it does, I'm really hard to do! After all, Sharon is not like Zhang Yuan and Ah Rui, her extraordinary martial arts and terrifying strange power are difficult enough to deal with, not to mention that she has to spend time guarding against the vicious ghosts hiding in the shadows.
It's tricky.
Sighing, Sharon seems to have caught its way, and her body is slowly walking towards the ghost figure that is dragging her feet, it is estimated that when the two come into contact, the cunning resentful spirit will take advantage of this to possess Sharon's body, posing a huge threat to me!
Don't let its tricks get their way!
Thinking of this, I hurriedly urged the true qi of my whole body, ready to strike first, and first use the acupuncture hand to subdue Sharon, who was facing away from me.
Just as I was about to rush towards Sharon, she turned her back to me and quietly made an "ok" gesture with her hand!
Is it telling me that she is not deceived by resentful spirits?
As soon as the spirit moved, I immediately comprehended and quietly activated the vipassana channeling, condensed into a fire phoenix golden feather, and while Sharon's body covered the vision of the resentful spirit, I shook my hand and gently sent the spiritual feather to Sharon's hand.
And the distance between her and the resentful soul who turned into her sister is left: five, three, two-
"Whew!"
With me suddenly transforming the fire phoenix golden feather into a psionic battle axe, the bold and careful Sharon really swung a "Sweep through the air" mercilessly at the unsuspecting resentful soul when she thought that the resentful soul she had succeeded was about to take her upper body! ”
"Ahh In the terrible scream, the unprepared ghost had already been cut into two pieces by the suddenly attacked Sharon with an axe, and it took a long time to recover from the real damage of the psionic battle axe against the "qi" level, and barely condensed into the shape of a half-figure.
"Who the hell are you?" With a roar of gnashing teeth, the wraith finally asked us breathlessly.
"Transcend your reincarnation and rise to heaven!" Tomb Hunter East White
