Chapter 678: Divine Messenger
Wide and quiet road, with someone on the other side walking slowly.
Tang Luo looked over, it was an old man with dark skin.
The body is rickety, thin, and there are a few strands of gray and white long hair on the smooth head that occasionally flutter with the breeze, and the hairstyle is very similar to the style of the fire cloud evil god in "Kung Fu".
He was dressed in tattered clothes and held a natural cane formed by a tree branch in his hand.
He also carried a basket woven of bamboo strips on his back, which extended up to the top of his head to protect him from the wind and rain.
Now there are only two lone poles left, which have not worked at all.
The old man walked slowly, step by step, on crutches.
It's like the kind of old farmer who has been facing the loess all his life with his back to the sky, just appearing on this empty, quiet and unmanned street, which makes people feel weird and even frightened.
Tang Luo when they looked at the old man.
The old man's cloudy eyes also lifted at the same time, staring at them, and his steps quickened.
Coming to Tang Luo and the others, his eyes stayed on Tang Luo, the little monk, for a while, and the old man looked at Zhu Bajie and asked, "Hou Sheng, why are you here." ”
A heart-palpitating smile appeared on his face, which was a little better than a dry corpse.
There are only a few scattered teeth left in the upper and lower teeth.
"Passing by, passing by." Zhu Bajie smiled, "How old are you?" ”
"Me, I'm passing by too, I'm going there." The old man held out his finger and pointed to the other side of the road.
There is a large palace complex, and the "dangerous building 100 feet high" that I saw just now is a building in the palace.
"Old man, do you know why there is no one on this street?" Zhu Bajie smiled sweetly, like a gentle large animal that was harmless to humans and animals.
"Oh, for the angel of God comes, and the idlers retreat." The old man said.
"Oracle? It can't be you, right? Zhu Bajie laughed.
The old man tried to puff out his chest: "Why, doesn't it look like it?" ”
"Well, indeed." Zhu Bajie nodded and admitted.
"The current offspring is not sensible at all." The old man said, "Okay, come with me, and I'll open your eyes today." ”
"That's a good feeling!"
Zhu Bajie agreed to come down.
Oracle?
So you have a god behind you, and it just so happens that our mission is to "punish God".
This has been sent to the door, and I must find out.
Tang Luo and the others followed behind the divine envoy, who seemed to be walking staggeringly, and could not walk without a cane.
But the speed is actually not slow, it can catch up with the speed of an adult trot.
A group of people walked through the deserted streets, all the way over, and there was not even a single figure in sight.
You can see that there are many shops on both sides of the street.
There is also a sign of a century-old store, coupled with the geographical location, it should have been a very prosperous location.
Approaching the palace, the road was replaced by tall gates on both sides.
Various mansions.
This is supposed to be the imperial capital of some dynasty.
The gates of the outer walls of the palace had been opened by the time Tang Luo and the others arrived.
On both sides were a forest of soldiers, and you could see the weapons in their hands, with a touch of dark green, shaped like Ge.
The sword at his waist also has a hint of dark green.
It's like a bronze vessel.
In the middle of the gate, a middle-aged man in a Xuanjin wide robe, wearing a beaded crown on his head, and a blank face, put his hands together in his sleeves, bent down and saluted: "Welcome to the divine envoy." ”
A group of courtiers behind him were rude.
"Huh."
The divine envoy smiled, ignoring the middle-aged man at all, but looked at Tang Luo and them, "You believe it, right?" ”
The man and the courtiers still maintained a bowing posture and did not get up.
"Believe, believe." Zhu Bajie still spoke as a spokesperson, and gave a thumbs up, "Old man, you are this." ”
The oracle turned back and looked at the man, "Go in." ”
Only then did everyone straighten up, and they lowered their eyebrows and welcomed the envoy into the palace.
Including Tang Luo behind him, although he was a little confused, he didn't even dare to ask a superfluous word.
"The gods here are very closely connected with ordinary people." In the chat room between the gray fog, Ao Yulie said.
"Hmm." Zhu Bajie, "It seems that he should have single-handedly controlled this mortal dynasty." ”
"There won't be only one God, will you?"
"I don't know, maybe there are a lot of them, and there is no number and completion of tasks, so it's hard to judge." Zhu Bajie and Ao Yulie chatted.
It was mixed with the barking of the whistling dog.
Sha Wujing has always been in the form of Buddha beads, he has not appeared, he has always been silent, and he doesn't know if he is listening to his senior brother and brother Kan Dashan.
Tang Luo looked at the palace gate, the several huge black pillars on the white jade square.
Standing on top of a circular platform, there are three doorways in the wall above the ground, and the edges are pitch black.
When passing by the black iron pillar, the divine envoy casually pointed at Tang Luo and them: "These few people don't respect the divine envoy. ”
The advancing footsteps suddenly stopped, and the man and the courtiers looked at Tang Luo and the others in unison.
The atmosphere was a little more depressing and heavy than just now.
The man ...... visibly shook and did not speak.
"Huh?" The Divine Envoy raised his tone slightly.
"Someone! These three people do not respect the divine envoys, and they should be punished with cannon burning! The man ordered loudly, his face hideous.
The soldiers accompanying the guards immediately came over.
Some of the people in the back also had huge chains as thick as their forearms.
Farther away, there are characters like squires hurrying towards other places.
"So this thing is used to burn people?" Zhu Bajie looked at the giant pillars.
The punishment of cannon burning is to tie people to a red-hot copper and iron pillar and burn them alive.
"If you don't respect the messenger of God, you don't even have the qualifications to be a slave." The man said coldly.
From hideous to wooden.
Those soldiers had already tied Tang Luo and them with iron chains, and they didn't even let go of the little beast of the Howling Sky Dog, and they were tied to Tang Luo with a piece.
The other party cooperated so much and didn't resist at all, and the soldiers didn't care, they should be scared stupid.
Soon, someone brought lit firewood.
Thrown through the doorway into the platform, red flames burning inside.
Smoke gradually rises from the top of the cylinder.
"Master, don't you do it?" Ao Yulie asked, and the three of them were tied to a cylinder one by one.
The back was clinging to each other, and a little heat was already coming out.
"Let's wait for the temperature to get higher." Tang Luo said casually, "Burning like this has an effect." ”
"Oh." Zhu Bajie suddenly realized, it turned out to be like this.
I burn myself.
"No, look."
The execution began, and the man originally planned to enter the palace with the divine envoy, but was rejected by the divine envoy.
The god made the cloudy eyes burst out with cruel and pleasant emotions, licking his lips as dry as the bark of an old tree: "It's been a long time since I've seen this scene." ”
The man pursed his lips and did not speak, and the color on his face was even more indifferent.
The last time he was burned was five years ago.
It was also the messenger of God, and the person who was tortured at that time was his seven-year-old child!
Because he accidentally bumped into the oracle, and saw his terrifying appearance like a corpse, he was so frightened that he cried out in fright, and he offended the oracle and the majesty of the gods represented by the oracle.
"That little thing last time, I remember being a little smaller than this little bald head. It didn't burn much before it died, and it wasn't fun at all, you said? ”
The angel looked at the man with eyes that flashed with cruelty.
The emperor, who was above 10,000 people, slowly bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”
All he could do for his child was to tie the chains himself, tie them around his neck, and end his life before he suffered.
"Ha, ha, ha......"
The oracle's laughter was asthma, intermittent, and unpleasant as a night owl.
The temperature of the cylinder rises, and a crimson color gradually appears, and the top is billowed with smoke.
In the absence of wind, it looks like a giant black pillar.
"Forget it, don't wait." Tang Luo said, "It's a terrible laugh. ”
"All right, Master!"
Ao Yulie instantly turned into a streamer, and the chains tied to the three of them fell to the ground with a sound.
With this sound, he appeared in front of the oracle, and a dragon claw grabbed the oracle.
The god made a dazzling essence burst out of his cloudy eyes, and the crutch in his hand was raised, pointing at Ao Yulie.
The palm of the dragon's claw collides with the crutch.
The furious energy burst out, blowing the people around him to stagger, and the bead crown on the man's head flew up, leaving a mess of hair.
"Huh?"
Ao Yulie's face changed slightly, and the power from the crutches actually made his entire right arm numb.
It can be seen how strong its power is.
Completely transformed into a dragonman form, Ao Yulie's other claw grabbed the celestial spirit cover of the divine envoy.
As soon as the crutches were retracted, the envoy pointed at the dragon's claws that were clutching at the head.
At the wrist point, the dragon scales collided with the dirty end of the crutch, and some sparks appeared, and several dragon scales splashed out.
At the same time, the dragon's tail rose from Ao Yulie's back, smashing into the oracle with a whistling wind from top to bottom.
The oracle raised his other hand and grabbed the dragon's tail, and the stone slab under his feet shattered.
"Give me death!"
Ao Yulie let out a dragon roar, and the huge dragon roar "stunned" the surrounding group of people.
Thunder burst out from his mouth, and at the same time, the wind blade, ice pick, and Tiangang fire slammed into the divine envoy along with the thunder.
Thunder, fire, and wind engulfed the oracle.
Ao Yulie stepped back, opened a distance of more than ten meters, and shook his numb hands.
"Hehe, it turned out to be a little dragon."
In the dissipating thunder and fire, the oracle let out a laugh, his body was clearly scorched, and his robe was even more tattered.
However, there were not many serious injuries.
"That's too hard, isn't it?" Ao Yulie's eyes widened.
To be honest, they really didn't feel much of the aura of powerful cultivation on this divine envoy, but their breath was a little thicker.
Now when I started my hand, I found that the hardness of the other party's body was extremely amazing.
Ao Yulie suspected that he really grabbed the other party with one claw, and it was still a lose-lose situation.
"Is that how your adults taught you to deal with oracles?" The divine envoy smiled, and the cruelty in his eyes became more and more obvious.
As soon as the words fell, a flash of silver light appeared.
Zhu Bajie held a nine-toothed nail rake and smashed it on the neck of the divine envoy: "Yes, you-mother-of-the-!" ”
The divine envoy's neck suddenly crooked at a strange angle, and the whole person was smashed into the air.
There were several blood holes in the upper part of the neck, and the extremely thick black-red blood only seeped out a little, and immediately covered the wound.
