Chapter 68: Qingling Lake (2)

"Bai Gongzi, I still have to bother you, what happened? Why are you so perverse? Gao Yuncheng rubbed his hands and said suspiciously.

"You are from other places, and it is reasonable that you don't know about Qingling Lake, and everyone is so panicked because of Qingling Lake on the outskirts of the capital." Bai Mohuan said word by word and solemnly.

"This lake was originally dried up before this..."As soon as Bai Mohuan's words fell, the five people of Gao Yuncheng glanced at each other with a tacit understanding.

"There have been rumors in the capital that Qingling Lake, when the water is full overnight, touching the dragon veins of the terrain, there will be natural disasters, and even the whole city will be destroyed, there must be two hundred people, one hundred men, one hundred women to pay tribute, one person can not be more, one person can not be less, in order to resolve this disaster." Bai Mohuan's tone was also panicked.

At this point, the five of Gao Yuncheng clearly understood why everyone was so panicked about the water in Qingling Lake.

"Poof, hahaha... You guys are too outrageous, no, I really can't help it, someone's kindness has been ruined by this Qingling Lake. The phoenix also gloated.

The guests were stunned for a moment, and they were also angry in the depths of their hearts, even if this woman had a beautiful face like a fairy, but she was so reckless of human life, it was also extremely disgusting.

"How can this be reasonable, no wonder these people are afraid of this, in the end, my Shenlong tried his best, but he did bad things with good intentions, which backfired?" Long Yan's face turned gloomy when he heard this, and he slapped the table angrily, only startling the guests.

Phoenix hurriedly covered Long Yan's mouth with his hand, and exclaimed and laughed: "You are crazy, what nonsense are you talking about?" Knowing that you're angry, you're a dragon anyway, don't worry about it like that, right? ”

"Who said that the Three Realms respect dragons? Such a force..."Phoenix has not finished speaking.

"Come on, it's not enough for you to gloat." Long Yan also pouted.

Bai Mohuan glanced at a few of them, and felt inexplicable in his heart, but only for a moment, he didn't think about it deeply.

"Then, in that case, why do you still want to go to Qingling Lake?" Gao Yuncheng asked curiously.

"Everyone doesn't believe it, so naturally they want to go to Qingling Lake to see for themselves, whether it's true or not, but I don't know who will be selected to pay tribute to the lake." Bai Mohuan said worriedly.

"So, the people on the street are running away?" Gao Yuncheng looked out of the elegant carved window and asked curiously.

Bai Mohuan then looked at the hurried passers-by outside the carved window, and exclaimed helplessly: "Run?" Where to run? Qingling Lake is guarded by people from the royal faction, and this news has long reached the ears of the current emperor, but I am afraid that someone has already sent heavy troops to guard it outside the city gate, where can I escape? ”

"Who is this spreading such a rumor against the sky, even the current emperor is alarmed?" Long Yan was also curious.

"Rumors? You say that this Qingling Lake was originally exhausted, but Qingling Lake is so big but due to a heavy rain overnight, the lake is full? Even in the streets of the capital, even a pool of stagnant water did not leave a trace, and disappeared without a trace. Is this too weird? Isn't it? Bai Mohuan also asked curiously.

"It's true, it's true, the water of Qingling Lake is really full, not only that, there are heavy soldiers guarding the city gate outside the city, the emperor has an order, only allowed to enter and not leave, and select candidates to pay tribute to Qingling Lake, until the Qingling Lake matter is resolved." A man in white came in, panting, and then the man walked up to the attic with his feet raised.

The residents reacted and hurried up to the attic.

Where did these rumors come from? An emperor of the Ninety-Five Emperor can't follow the nonsense, right? Will such things be believed? Gao Yuncheng was puzzled.

"It's not very clear about the specifics, it's said to be a Taoist priest..."Bai Mohuan said meaningfully.

At the corner of the attic wing, there was a "bang", which attracted the attention of several people in Gao Yuncheng.

"Look at me... This... The sword is unstable, it disturbs you, you talk, you talk..."Then, the Taoist priest's face was sneaky, and he hurriedly went down the attic and escaped from the 'Qingfeng Ten Miles'.

"There's a problem..."Long Yan said meaningfully.

"Go, follow him." Gao Yuncheng then said.

Gao Yuncheng's five people immediately got up and ran down the attic.

"Eh, where are you going? It's dangerous out there right now. Bai Mohuan stood in place and shouted.

"Bai Gongzi, you have to worry about it, and there will be a period later." Gao Yuncheng replied.

Bai Mohuan stood in the attic and looked at their passing figures outside the carved window, only hoping that they could escape, and not let this unwarranted disaster implicate them from other places.

The five people of Gao Yuncheng also chased the Taoist priest, and in front of the city gate and city wall, they saw the Taoist priest performing martial arts, climbing to the city wall, and climbing over the wall.

Immediately, the five people of Gao Yuncheng behind him also stopped, Long Yan, Phoenix, Qilin, and Chang Shou used their aura to take Gao Yuncheng to hold their breath and come out through the wall.

"Huh, who are you, what are you chasing me for?" The Taoist soldier panted and puffed, and then looked at the five people, what surprised him was that these people arrived at Qingling Lake at the same time as him, and they still didn't change their faces, and they didn't breathe, not to mention for the time being, with his martial arts and sensitive hearing, he didn't hear the sound of these people climbing over the wall and falling to the ground, and he felt from the bottom of his heart that these five people were not ordinary and not easy to mess with.

"Hmph, what are you running? If you don't run, we won't chase you, sneaky, not a good person at first glance. Phoenix said meaningfully.

"Hey, what kind of logic are you guys doing? I run, why don't you say that the whole capital is hiding from this disaster, then why can't I run? Besides, I'm not trying to run away, I'm just coming to see this Qingling Lake. The Taoist priest pretended to be dashing, but it was a confessional tone.

"Qingling Lake?" Gao Yuncheng is also inexplicable, looking around, where is there a lake? Where is Qingling Lake?

"How many of you are from out of town, aren't you? No wonder I don't know Qingling Lake, and I dare to chase here. The Taoist priest asked curiously.

Seeing that the five people of Gao Yuncheng ignored him, the Taoist priest used his sword to cut off the thorns in the jungle in front of him, and picked up the broken branches of the thorns: "No, please, this is Qingling Lake." ”

In the face of his sudden flattery, Gao Yuncheng was very uncomfortable, perhaps because he heard the rumors of Qingling Lake, and subconsciously became jealous, what is in this forest? Could this person have a conspiracy?

Seeing that Long Yan, Phoenix, Qilin, and Chang Shou nodded at him, signaling that he was okay, he passed through the forest from here.

"This is Qingling Lake? It's so beautiful, my phoenix has never seen such a wonderful scene in thousands of years, even on the top of the clouds in the fairy world. The phoenix also exclaimed.

As soon as the words fell, the Taoist priest and Gao Yuncheng also cast surprised glances at the phoenix.

The Taoist priest was surprised by the words of the phoenix, what thousands of years, what the top of the clouds in the fairy world, look at the woman's calm look when talking about the top of the clouds, it seems that she has really stayed here.

And to the surprise of several people in Gao Yuncheng, the phoenix was so forgetful that he was so open-mouthed that he had been talking about thousands of years in front of outsiders.

Looking at the Taoist priest again, he looked thoughtful, as if he was considering her words.

Gao Yuncheng also interrupted his suspicion: "The rumors in this capital have spread because of Taoist priests, however, you are a Taoist priest, how much should you know the reason for this rumor, right?" ”
