Chapter 588: A Delaying Tactic (Ask for Subscription!) )
It's not easy to code words, the last month of 17 years, no matter what, please support the genuine subscription, kneel and beg!
The witch queen is a descendant of the Nuwa tribe, although she is not a snake demon, but in the body of the Nuwa tribe, she has the characteristics of a human, a god, and a snake, so if the witch queen drinks the realgar wine, she will also manifest the true body of the human-headed snake god, which is also beyond doubt.
This is like saying that tigers and cats, although they have the characteristics of felines, but there is an essential difference, one is good at fighting prey, fierce and fierce, is the king of all beasts, but cats are very docile, is a good hand for selling cute, the same is a feline, the two are also diametrically opposed, but because of the characteristics of the same origin and root of the organism, there are always similarities between the two, for example, they are very similar in appearance.
And at this time, Bai Yue also wanted to use this to restrain the witch queen and frame her as a snake demon.
……
……
"The witch queen is the big demon who devoured the thousand-year-old national fortune of Nanzhao, and there will be endless troubles after keeping her words, and I hope that the witch king will abandon his personal feelings, and be able to think about the people and the society of Nanzhao, and kill the thousand-year-old snake demon, with the prosperity and prosperity of the righteous human race, the witch king, in the face of great rights and wrongs, you must not be confused!" The moon worship was forced violently, and there was an aggressive momentum in his words.
As soon as the words of moon worship came out, the moon worshippers at the scene seemed to be instigated and infected, and at this moment, they also shouted in unison to kill their relatives, and the crowd was passionate and fanatical, and there was a feeling that they would not give up until they reached their goal.
"For the sake of Nanzhao's Jiangshan Sheji, kill the witch queen."
"The reason why Nanzhao suffered such a disaster was because of this snake demon, no wonder there was a disaster that occurs once in a thousand years."
"I didn't expect this witch queen to be a thousand-year-old monster, she didn't know how many creatures she had killed in the past thousand years, and she had cultivated to such a point, and now she was trying to take away my Nanzhao national fortune, it was an unforgivable crime, and she had to be executed."
"That's right, the moon worship is the spokesperson of the moon god in the sky, we should follow his revelations, and the gods will not deceive us."
The shouts of the people were like a tsunami of the mountains, which made the Witch King's heart feel a huge pressure, and the Witch King looked at the bewitched Nanzhao people and tens of thousands of Moon Worshippers under the high platform, and then stared at his wife Wu Hou beside him, he couldn't help but hesitate, his brows were tightly locked, and the whole person's thoughts were also caught in a painful struggle.
As the monarch of Nanzhao, he naturally has the obligation to help the state affairs and appease his people, and as a husband who loves his wife deeply, how can he bear to push the witch queen into the fire pit, and for a while, the witch king is also caught in a painful choice, which feels as if he has a thousand burdens on his heart.
The witch queen's eyebrows were lowered, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as a descendant of the Nuwa clan, she obviously had the blood of the god clan flowing in her body, but she couldn't refute being framed as a snake demon, which seemed to be a tragedy for their descendants of the Nuwa clan, and it was also a huge irony.
Prior to this, the witch queen had imagined that there would be such a situation more than once, and when it really happened, her heart was as quiet as a lake, at this time she had already put life and death out of the way, if her death could be exchanged for the peace of Nanzhao, then she would also die righteously, and some were just reluctant feelings for the witch king and Ling'er, so to speak, this is the existence of what she really misses in her heart.
At this time, the voices of the people under the high platform were higher and higher, and among these people, there were some soldiers of Nanzhao, who also lost their minds after being bewitched by the moon worship, and they held the long knives in their hands, and rushed towards the high platform in the shouting of killing.
Under the fierce impact, the guards who protected the safety of the Witch King also collapsed one after another, and many people fell in a pool of blood, seeing that the situation on the scene was already about to get out of control.
……
……
When Li Xiao saw this situation, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, it seemed that in the eyes of the moon worship disciples, this moon worship really had a lot of prestige, just a few words, he could actually instigate these people to kill the witch queen.
At this time, he turned his head and exchanged glances with Elder Shi, and they both understood each other's meaning from each other's eyes.
The powerful relationship in this can be said to be very important, you know, in fact, the moon worship has always been deliberately controlling the entire Nanzhao, only the Nanzhao palace has such a god as the witch queen, but also makes the moon worship jealous, so he also hesitated to do it.
But now the moon worship is waiting for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, at this time, his ambition hidden under that kind face is also exposed, if the witch queen is not eliminated for a day, he will not be at peace for a day, and his ambition to control Nanzhao will not be realized, so at this time, he will naturally not let go of this opportunity.
Just when Li Xiao and Elder Shi were secretly lucky and were about to rescue the witch, they heard a soft shout from the crowd not far away.
"Who dares to hurt Qing'er's life,"
Just between the lightning and flint, a figure suddenly flashed out of the crowd, and I saw this person stepping lightly on his toes, jumping onto the high platform, blocking the witch queen's body.
I saw that the wine fairy sword in the hand of the wine sword fairy waved gently, and the dazzling sword light slashed out towards the front in the sharp sound of breaking wind, and the several disciples of the Moon Worship Sect led by the group, before they could even see the trajectory of the sword slash clearly, they were already in a different place, and immediately, the wine sword fairy shook the sword blade in his hand one after another, and the cold light flashed, forming an impermeable sword net in the air, as if to smash all the people who approached.
And at this time, those moon worship disciples who rushed to the high platform and wanted to make a move on the witch queen, in the face of the incomparably fierce attack of the wine sword fairy, they all stopped, and their faces showed a look of horror, as if they were suddenly poured a basin of cold water, and the frenzy in their minds was also suddenly diluted, although they were all bewitched by the words of the moon worship, carried away, but this does not mean that they are really not afraid of death, the wine sword fairy with its own swordsmanship, Directly shocked these disciples of the Moon Worship Sect on the spot, so that they did not dare to cross the thunder pool for half a step.
When the witch king saw that a figure suddenly jumped on the high platform, he couldn't help but change his face, but when the witch king found out that the person who came didn't seem to have any ill will towards the witch queen, his expression was a little dark.
……
……
The witch queen's expression was slightly stunned, although the figure in front of her had not been seen for a long time, but even if she saw the back and outline of the other party, the witch queen could still see it at a glance, this person was the wine sword fairy, and she would not have a trace of doubt in her heart about this.
"Yixi..."The witch queen looked at the back of the wine sword fairy, and the scenes of the past also came to mind, and she couldn't help but murmur.
"Qing'er, I'm here for your palace, you go quickly!" Jiu Jian Immortal turned his head and glanced at Lin Qing'er affectionately, but he didn't have time to sigh too much, and hurriedly said.
"Shaki... Could it be that this person is the legendary wine sword fairy. Li Xiao couldn't help but look at the person in front of him carefully.
A somewhat tattered robe with multiple patches, a pair of mangshoe, and a slag-smashing beard on his feet, but although he looks a little shabby now, there is a faint trace of heroism between his eyebrows, and a wine gourd hangs around his waist, and he can smell a smell of wine from a distance.
At this time, the witch queen also cast a grateful look at the wine sword fairy, but she did not choose to leave, but shook her head fearlessly and said: "The target of the moon worship is me, if I escape, it will inevitably implicate the thousands of people of Nanzhao, so I naturally can't go." ”
"Qing'er, these people are all bewitched by the moon worship, lose their minds, and even harm your life, but you still defend them like this, why do you have to suffer." The Wine Sword Immortal couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then said with a slight sigh.
With an indifferent smile on her face, the witch queen said, "Yixi, you should understand me, the decision I made will not be changed easily, so you don't need to persuade me anymore." ”
The witch queen said so, and the whole person's expression also exuded a kind of motherly demeanor.
Putting the words of the witch queen into his ears, Li Xiao's heart couldn't help but move slightly, Li Xiao, who is familiar with the plot of the Legend of Sword and Fairy, naturally knows that the true identity of the witch queen is actually the descendant of the Nuwa clan, and the unique divine blood of the Nuwa clan is added, it can be said that she has great divine power.
Li Xiao's heart will not doubt at all, if the witch queen really wants to escape, I am afraid that the three moon worships will not be stopped, but in this realm of the witch queen, she is not only thinking about herself, she really cares about the people of Nanzhao, she also knows that if she escapes today, it may affect the people of Nanzhao, so at this time, she wants to sacrifice her life to protect the country and society of Nanzhao, it can be said that this is the real idea in her heart.
"Hey, why can't these people of Nanzhao understand your intentions, but are being used by people with ill intentions."
After listening to the words of the witch queen, the wine sword fairy also understood her good intentions, and couldn't help but sigh slightly, but even so, he also held the long sword in front of the witch queen, and did not allow any moon worship disciples to approach, let alone stand idly by, so that the witch queen suffered any danger.
The Witch King on the side, seeing this scene, naturally felt that the relationship between the Wine Sword Fairy and the Witch Queen was very expensive, but the Witch King was not a narrow-minded person, not only did he not hate the Wine Sword Fairy, but he was glad that the Witch Queen could get his protection.
It's just that the situation on the field suddenly became stagnant, on the one hand, those ferocious moon worship disciples couldn't attack for a long time in the face of the guards of the wine sword fairy, but they lost their troops and broke the generals, on the other hand, in the face of the siege of the ten thousand moon worship disciples on the field, it was difficult for the wine sword fairy to break through the encirclement, so it was also a stalemate for a while.
And at this time, Li Xiao, who had never spoken, suddenly took a step forward and said slowly: "Today's incident happened too suddenly, and it is related to the society of the country, so it is naturally not a trivial matter, but if you only rely on the words of the Moon Worship Sect Master, I am afraid it will be difficult to determine and convince the public, so I suggest that the witch queen be claustrophobic for trial, and then ask the witch king to make a decision, I don't know what you think?" ”
"That's right, until the truth is really revealed, no one can arbitrarily judge the life and death of the witch queen." Elder Shi also echoed his words, and many other ministers also expressed their support.
The moon worship on the altar, although the face is gloomy and unwilling, but in the face of such a stalemate situation, it can only compromise.
"I'm only going to give you three days." After Bai Yue snorted coldly, he flicked his long sleeves and turned to leave.
And when the moon worshippers left, those moon worship disciples withdrew from the altar one by one, but there were still some people who stayed behind to carry out the moon worship orders and temporarily detain the witch queen.
Li Xiao also couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, today's situation, the moon worship side obviously has the upper hand, two fists are difficult to defeat four hands, if it really goes head-to-head with the moon worship, then it is very likely to fall into an unfavorable situation, and this delaying strategy, although it can not fundamentally solve the problem, finally bought some time.
That night, Jiu Jian Xian quietly sneaked into the place where the Wu Empress was imprisoned, and wanted to persuade the Wu Empress to leave Nanzhao, but the Wu Empress had already regarded death as home, so in the face of the persuasion of the Jiu Jian Xian, she naturally refused, but at the time of parting, the Wu Empress asked the Jiu Jian Xian to take Ling'er to leave Nanzhao, because the Wu Empress wanted to face this crisis alone, and did not want the young Ling'er to be involved in this crisis, and Ling'er was also the blood of the Nuwa family, so she must be allowed to continue. For the witch queen's entrustment, Jiu Jianxian also agreed, and he entered the Nanzhao Palace overnight and returned to the Central Plains with Ling'er.
Knowing that Ling'er had gone to the Central Plains, Li Xiao was also relieved.
After returning to Fangshi's Mansion, Li Xiao abandoned all affairs, began to close his eyes and recuperate, and tried to adjust himself to the best state, because he had a faint premonition that Nanzhao was about to usher in a bloody contest, although today's delaying tactics temporarily played some role and delayed some time, but Li Xiao knew very well that since Baiyue had been planning for this matter for a long time, he would definitely not give up, and there was no doubt about this, and next, I am afraid that a big war would be inevitable. Therefore, the more critical he is, the more he must stabilize his mind and adjust himself to the best state, so that he will have enough strength to meet the upcoming crises and challenges.
