Chapter VI
The fog that permeated the mountains showed no sign of abating, but grew thicker with the night. The invisible mist pierced the heavy shadows of the mountains and swam between the branches of the trees, adding a dignified and unfathomable horror to the otherwise uninhabited mountains. Looking up, the shadows of the trees loomed in the sky, fangs and claws. It is strange that in such a vast forest, there is no wild beast to hear.
Looking around at night, the tall and heavy trees tightly blocked out the little moonlight, so that she could not see the situation ten steps away.
The injury made the boy's body even heavier. Su Ye struggled to help him up, and walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. She headed towards the shade of the mountain. There may be a dry cave to live in, build a fire, and get through the current situation for a while.
But it backfired, and the surrounding bushes became denser and denser, and almost every step seemed extremely difficult. The dark woods are like a maze, and each path feels familiar, but you can't get there.
"What to do? Lost...... It seems like it's been going around in circles. β
She thought for a moment, put her right hand to her mouth, tightened her silver teeth, bit off a small sleeve, tied it to a tree beside her, and continued to half-drag and half-drag the boy towards the shaded side.
After about half a cup of tea, fatigue gradually set up, and she leaned the boy against a nearby tree and rubbed her somewhat sore arm.
But at this moment, her eyes widened in disbelief, and the sight in front of her froze her.
About two feet in front of her was an ordinary-looking tree, with the white cloth she had just bitten off her sleeve tightly tied to its trunk.
The edge of the cloth and the break in her sleeve fit just right, and the way she tied it to the tree was also her own method, and even the position was exactly the same.
The situation is now completely beyond the scope of the night's thoughts. Su Ye turned his head to look at the young man leaning against the tree, in such a damp and cold environment, if he didn't find a way out quickly, he was afraid that his life would really be in danger. But when an even more terrifying sight came into view, she screamed almost uncontrollably.
Not far away, about twenty steps or so from the tree that I had just found tied with a white cloth, there was also a tree with the same white cloth tied on it!
The same white cloth, the same zafa!
I felt dizzy all night. The scene in front of me seemed to rotate automatically. She shook her head desperately, forcing herself to stay awake, telling herself that it must be a hallucination. But when she raised her head again, her already fragile nerves collapsed in an instant.
Dozens of white broken sleeves are tightly tied to dozens of different trees in the same way!
She stretched out her hand, trying to touch the dozens of white cloths hovering in front of her, her foot just stepped into the air, her body fell to the side suddenly, and a piercing pain came from her foot. She couldn't help but exclaim "ah".
A colorful snake swam out of the grass and bit hard at her bare ankle under the hem of her skirt. The toxin was quickly injected into her body, and the girl fell heavily on the soft mud.
The pain blurred Suya's consciousness, and just as the girl was trying to grasp the consciousness that was about to leave her body, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the grass beside her. A swarthy figure appeared in front of her. As if grasping at the last straw, he stretched out his hand trembling and said in a weak voice that he couldn't even hear.
"Save ...... Save us ......"
In the main hall of the underground palace, although the atmosphere is still silent and solemn. However, the appearance of the four "Five Heavens Generals" in unison still shows a little difference from the past.
The old man, Kagami, and Kagegari surrounded the half-kneeling tarsal bones in the middle. The tall and thin body of the tarsal bones seemed to have shrunk a lot at this time, and the right knee and calf were close to the ground, and the body trembled a little.
For a long time, there was no sound from the bead curtain on the stone steps. The old man in a black cloak embroidered with a yellow moire pattern sighed and broke his silence.
"Tarsus, as a five-day general, you actually messed up the important task entrusted by the king, what the hell is going on? With your strength, there should be few opponents within the Three Realms, but why? β¦β¦β
The old man paused, his voice full of doubt. On the side, the mirror wearing a black cloak embroidered with a red moire pattern trembled slightly, as if he was angry; The taciturn Kageri still sank into the darkness and quietly watched the situation in front of him.
The tarsal seemed to have anticipated this situation, and he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
The old man said in a deep voice: "I have been fighting with Jun Shang for many years, and I understand his character very well. He is open-minded and open-minded, and he must think that you are capable......"
"Humph! Extraordinary? Don't put gold on his face, old man. Jing Yu snorted from his nose and interrupted the old man's words. When the king sent you, I had an objection. But the king trusted you very much, but came to convince me, saying that in terms of skills, you are one of the best among the five heavenly generals. Now it seems that you have not only betrayed the trust of the king, but also lost the face of our five-day general! β
"Enough is enough!" The tarsal could no longer bear the cynicism, and rose to its feet, a cold current thrown out of the cloak, and his wizened right hand stretched out from it, glowing with a burst of cyan light. Burning eyes forced the mirror to bewilder.
"Humph! Isn't this old old old one out of fashion? I've never taken you snake seriously. β
The woman drew a circle with her hands flat on her chest, and four flickering prisms of light immediately appeared around her body, flickering faintly and emitting all kinds of strange and uncertain light.
Kageri, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly stepped out of the shadows, shaking his cloak embroidered with purple moire, and was about to step forward. The short old man grabbed him and whispered.
"Wait, Jinghua and the Snake are the two of them's famous skills, and their power is not trivial. If you rush over and fight now, you may hurt yourself. β
Just as the saber was rattling, a roar like a dragon and tiger suddenly sounded from the long-silent bead curtain on the stone steps. Two rays of light shot out from within, stirring up the pearls on the curtain in all directions.
The light fell straight at the tarsal bone and the mirror puzzle, one on the tarsal wrist and the other on the mirror prism. The tarsal bones screamed in pain and restrained the snake, and the prism on all sides was like a layer of frost.
"You belong to the Five Heavens General, and you claim to be Gu's right-hand man, and now you are killing each other, don't you want the world to see Lone's joke?"
The emperor behind the bead curtain raised his hand and pointed at it, and the sword of the tarsal bone floated flat and flew into the curtain.
"This ...... There are actually scars on the sword? The emperor brushed a few cracks in the sword with one hand. What the hell is going on? Old Dazai, you can also take a look. β
With a flash of white light, the sword in the emperor's hand suddenly disappeared, and it appeared in front of the old man again in an instant. The old man picked up the ancient sword in both hands and looked at it carefully, his eyebrows locked.
"Tarsus, how did this scar come about?"
"Yes......" The tarsal wanted to answer, but hesitated. That stinky boy, let him suffer such a shameful revenge, no one can kill him except my tarsal bones! If you don't take revenge, sooner or later you will become the laughing stock of everyone.
The tarsal was determined to conceal the existence of the young man: "I obeyed the order of the king and used the divine sword to attack the imperial dragon bloodline, but I didn't expect it to be bounced off, and then these cracks appeared on the divine sword. β
The old man muttered as he stared at the crack in the sword's body.
"Could it be that the Imperial Dragon bloodline really still retains such great power?"
"The Imperial Dragon bloodline is a divine object formed by the condensation of the people's qi in Kyushu, if it really retains such a powerful power, it means that the Song Dynasty's qi has not yet been dissipated. In that case......" The emperor put his hand on his chin, was silent for a moment, and then commanded. "You Aiqing have worked hard, let's go back and rest early."
All eyes were on the tarsal bone again.
The Emperor's voice came again. "The first task of going to the Nine Sons Labyrinth is to investigate the situation, and the second is to destroy the bloodline of the Imperial Dragon. If you can't succeed with the power of the divine sword, even if you have the ability to do it, you can do nothing. This is the end of the matter, so don't mention it again. β
"Tarsus! Don't kneel down and thank you for your grace. Jing confused angrily.
The tarsal raised his head and made a "hum" sound in his nose, obviously not appreciating.
The emperor didn't seem to care, and said lightly: "No need." Monarchs and ministers can be exempted from false courtesy. Old Dazai, stay a little longer, and have important things to discuss. β
"The king left the old ministers down, but it was for the Song court."
When the three of them withdrew from the hall, before the king could speak, the old man dared to ask questions.
"Old Dazai is really transparent." The emperor sighed and continued: "The royal qi of the Song court has not subsided for the time being, and even the divine sword cannot break the bloodline of the imperial dragon, so it seems that it can only find another way. β
"I wonder what your lord's plans are?"
"Lone is only thinking about it for a moment, and he hasn't done it thoroughly. The reason why the Song court has not lost its royal spirit must be the people's heart. If you want to win the hearts of the people, you must have a clear monarch and good ministers. Now that Emperor Song is not a Ming monarch, then he must be a good minister and a fierce general. β
ββ¦β¦ The old minister dared to guess that the king's meaning was ...... Woe to the wall? β
The emperor was so happy that he slapped his thigh and said loudly: "What a disaster, the old Dazai woke up the dreamer with a word." Since external forces can't destroy the royal qi of the Song Dynasty, then let him collapse from the inside, and when the royal qi is exhausted, the old Dazai will open up the two worlds of yin and yang, and great things will definitely be done! β
The old man bowed down and said, "For the great cause of the king, the old minister will do his best!" β
The emperor has made up his mind, and his spirit is much more relaxed. He leaned back in his wide chair and shouted.
"Bottle Demon ......"
The helpless boy fell to his knees and stared ahead. The charred corpse not far away was already indistinguishable.
His eyes widened with tears, but he still couldn't see the murderous demon. I only remember that the black sleeves flicked, and the dark clouds collided violently in an instant, and the closed clouds immediately engulfed his figure and disappeared.
Flashes of lightning pierced the air, and lightning flashed ahead, and a long figure stood in the middle of the charred pile of corpses. The rain fell on the man, and he seemed to have his palms folded together and his mouth was silently reciting something.
He couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, because the charred black figure in front of him almost completely blocked his vision, and he tried to move, but found that his whole body was entangled in green vines.
He struggled desperately, but his head hurt more and more, almost cracking. His mouth and nose seemed to be severely blocked by a solemn oppression, and he couldn't even keep up with his breathing.
He looked up, and the raindrops the size of beans fell on his face and flowed down the contours of his cheeks into his mouth. The smell of rain was salty, as if it were like tears. Eyes wet with rain hurt as if they were burned by flames. The heat burned his right eye, and the red light of the birthmark on his chest slowly emerged, and his consciousness began to blur......
Suddenly, a sharp pain came from his eyes, and the pain seeped into his mind, and he let out a miserable howl of "ah-". The whole right eye seems to be thrown into a pot of oil, every nerve is scorched by the heat, and the eyeball seems to have ceased to exist as if it has been freed from its shackles! He covered his eyes and rolled on the ground in pain, the pain so severe that he nearly fainted.
When the pain passed, the boy who opened his eyes again found that there was something strange in front of him. It was some strange stuff floating in the air like a fluffy ball, unaffected by the heavy rain, and glowing faintly; Hundreds of points of light were shining everywhere, and it even made the hazy sky a little brighter.
The teenager's attention was attracted by the strange pom-pom, and he reached out and gently grabbed one of the pom-poms.
At that moment, a flash of red light suddenly flashed between the boy's hand and the pom-pom, spreading out from between his fingers, and rushing to his entire arm like blood. Before he could think clearly, the red light quickly crawled all over his left arm. Then, the sound of boiling water came from the bones and muscles, wisps of steam emerged from the pores, and the skin was distorted by the energy tumbling within, and a blinding red glow glowed.
The boy shook his hands in horror, and the pain forced him to reach to the sky, hoping to alleviate the pain with the rain, but it backfired. Far from abating, the heat only intensified. The arm twisted and deformed in the alternating temperature, and the flesh seemed to be melted, and the paste of the burned flesh gradually dripped from the arm, making people look sickened.
"Don't! βββ
The boy's hand has become no longer a human hand, but a disgusting monster. And the weird hands are still greedily catching the flying pompoms.
"Who the hell am I? Why? Why am I in this world? Why! β¦β¦β
These questions were presented one by one, struggling and colliding in his mind, making the boy's headache almost crack. He could only shake his left hand in disgust. He hated his strange physique, such a strange thing grew on the body, it was better to destroy it. He thought, gritting his teeth and pounding his arm to the ground.
This is the top cliff of Mt. Shiratake. The rock has been exposed to wind and sun for thousands of years, and the texture is hard and rare in the world. Even if he had just been struck by a powerful lightning spell, it would only shake the rock open cracks.
But the mutated strange hand whistled and fell with the wind, and the air rolled up like a crisp sound like a quick knife, and the momentum was a hundred times faster than the thunder! The whole arm was crushed across the flat rock face, and the huge rock that was one foot square was actually split by this casual hand, and the gravel shot into the air like raindrops.
With this violent blow, the boy's left arm was torn apart by the strong wind, but strangely he did not feel the slightest pain. The fragments flew into the air, transforming into reticulated sarcomas and flying quickly towards the pom-pom nets floating in the air. The strange hand transforms into another form, frantically hunting pom-poms flying in the air......
"Ahh
The pain was unbearable, and the boy clutched his already unrecognizable arm, tilted his head, and cried hysterically.
"Ahh
Suddenly, Zhang Xun woke up.
He gasped and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands. The forgotten past suddenly appeared in the boy's sleep and turned into a nightmare in his heart.
"That's ...... I? β
He looked at his ghost hand, the hand that gave him infinite power, but at times made him extremely painful.
"That's what it is...... What the master doesn't want to tell me, my past? β
Zhang Xun stared blankly at his left hand, and there was nothing unusual here at this time.
However, in that painful nightmare, it was the ghost hand that he had long been accustomed to reminding him that the boy was himself.
But who is that charred corpse? Who is that long figure? Why is the master always silent when he asks about his life experience? Could it be that this dream is foreshadowing something to me?
"Who the hell am I......" He closed his eyes in pain, recalling the dream, but a sudden headache interrupted the recollection, and he fell unconscious again in the intense pain......
At this time, in the sky above Lin'an City, a gust of night wind struck, and the paper kite floating in the air kept changing its posture, and the incense slave hugged the neck of the paper kite tightly, shivering with cold.
And it's no wonder. The night air was already cold, not to mention that it was more than 100 zhang in the air, and Xiangnu was still dressed lightly, so it was no wonder that he was so cold that he sneezed a few times in a row.
She flew all the way from Yingzhou Immortal Mountain with a paper kite, and relied on the magic weapon she stole from her master to track it here. But somehow, when it came to the sky over Lin'an, the compass suddenly failed, and Sinan, who indicated the direction, couldn't move like a dead snake, so angry that Xiangnu almost smashed it.
"Little master, these toys are really bad, they are bad when they are bad, they are really deadly. If I had known, I would have taken a few more to use...... What should I do now......"
As she thought about it, she sensed a familiar smell in the air. Xiangnu sniffed, carefully distinguished, and his pupils lit up.
"It's the taste of little brother...... You can't be wrong, it must be! β
She patted the paper kite's neck and shouted excitedly: "Paper kite, paper kite, go over there, little brother is over there!" β
In a daze, Su Ye was awakened by a strange sound. She struggled to open her heavy eyelids and moved her body, her body was still a little sore, but the ankle injury seemed to be much better. She looked up and looked around.
It was a small thatched hut with traces of rain seeping through the mud brick walls, giving off a foul musty smell. The furnishings in the house are very simple, except for a simple thatched bed under him, and farm tools are randomly stacked in the corner; There was a fire in the pit next to him, and an iron pot hung from the bracket on it, and something was boiling in it.
That strange sound just now came from this pot.
At this moment, a dilapidated wooden door on the side of the house slowly opened "hoarsely", and the girl stared at the door nervously with wide eyes.
Out of the crack in the door came a thin black foot without shoes, then a half-dried calf, then a short body in a ragged shirt, and finally an old man with yellowish white hair on top of it, which turned out to be an old lady holding a bamboo basket.
Su Ye stroked his chest, and a trace of blood slowly appeared on his already pale face. She looked at the trembling old lady and said softly.
"Mother-in-law, did you save us?"
The old man turned his head to look at her, and the crowded wrinkles covered almost the entire face, almost squeezing his eyes out of sight. The few strands of white hair on the old lady's forehead trembled a few times, as if nodding slightly.
"We got lost in the forest in order to avoid being chased by the enemy. Thankfully, you saved us, and we will repay you for your kindness. By the way, mother-in-law, where is that companion of mine? How is he now? β
The old lady walked slowly and silently to the pot, took a handful of powder from the basket and sprinkled it into it, then took the spoon next to her and stirred it, scooped up a bowl, handed it to the girl, and nodded at her.
The gray-yellow soup in the bowl was bubbling and smelling very choking.
The old lady's withered hand stretched the bowl forward, as if to say, "Drink quickly."
I took the bowl all night, and I was almost fainted before I drank it. She was suspicious in her heart, but she still raised her neck and drank the whole bowl of soup, and there was a numb feeling in her mouth, but she didn't feel anything wrong. The body of the lotus elf transformed from stems and whiskers contains many substances that neutralize toxins, even if it can poison Da Luo Jinxian's powerful Gu poison, it may not be able to help her.
If it was poison, once it entered her body, there would be a noticeable burning sensation, but Suye didn't feel that way. It seems that this soup just smells disgusting, but there is no other name. Only then did she put her mind at ease and smiled at the withered old lady.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, I feel better. What about my friends? β
The old man, whose face was wrinkled like a spider's web, seemed to smile, pointed to the dilapidated wooden door, and actually spoke.
"It's inside, go see for yourself."
Her voice was as sharp and piercing as the cry of a night owl, and she opened the wooden door according to her instructions, and inside was a small side house, which only contained a small thatched bunk. In the dim light from the oil lamp next to him, I saw Zhang Xun, who was half-naked, lying on the bed with his eyes closed.
She walked over lightly and crouched down to examine his wound closely. The injured arm has been wrapped in black mud, Zhang Xun's expression is very peaceful at this moment, the temperature on his forehead seems to be much lower, and he is no longer sweating. Even breathing carried a slight heaval in his chest. When a stone in her heart fell to the ground, she suddenly realized that she was sitting next to a half-naked man, and she was so shocked that she immediately blushed and turned away.
"This lad is much better." The diminutive old man slowly paced in with a basket. "I've already wrapped up his injured hand...... After he rests for two days, he should be better. It's not too early, you should rest early, I'm in the hut next to me, and I'll call me if there's anything at any time. β
I felt that the old woman's night-like harsh voice suddenly became moving.
I slept very sweetly at night, but I didn't expect to be awakened by a slight noise from outside the house in the middle of the night.
The sound was not loud, especially mixed with the sound of rain dripping from the eaves, which was almost inaudible. But her hearing was unusual, and she could accurately distinguish the unusual sound through the tiny pores in the earthen wall.
"Qiang-"
"Qiang-"
It's like cutting wood with an axe, but it's raining outside at such a late hour, who is going to cut wood?
The girl immediately fell asleep. She got up from the haystack and listened intently.
"Qiang-"
There will be no mistake, the voice came from the side, it was the thatched hut where the mother-in-law said she lived just now.
Anxiety immediately welled up in the girl's heart. She got up and pushed open the door of the side room, and found the boy still lying there in good shape. Reassuring a little, she closed the side door and walked lightly through the main room, pushing open the wooden door facing outward.
It's raining outside. The black sky is lit up with distinct shades of color as if it had been splashed with ink, and there is a heavy sense of foreboding in the humid air. The rain fell on the ground one after another, splashing mud flowers, and the sound of "Qiang Qiang" came clearly through the rain and fog.
The sound came from the old lady's dimly lit hut.
In normal times, the old man will be called out loudly at night. But today, for some reason, she was silent. What happened in this forest was a little too strange for her to be wary.
Squatting in the middle of the night, braving the dense rain curtains, he moved lightly to the wall of the old man's hut, and listened to the movement inside.
"Qiang QiangβQiang Qiangβ"
Sure enough, the sound did come from within.
The girl pressed her ears tighter again, and the old man's voice shrill like the cry of a night owl pierced through the thick earthen wall and into her ears in fits and starts.
"Okay...... True...... Good...... bones, can be ...... Become a good ...... Material. β
What do you mean? The suspicion and uneasiness in Su Ye's heart grew more and more. She looked up at the hut carefully, and found that a window by the wall was propped up from below, and the girl bowed down and gently moved under the window, leaning against the earthen wall and slowly lifting her body, quietly casting her eyes into the house.
The old man sat with his back to the girl at a small table with a small oil lamp on the table. The old woman's shoulders shook as she took something out of the basket beside her. She seemed to be busy doing something, but her eyes were blocked by her slumped back.
Suye turned his body a little, and could see a corner of the table, and found a small dog tied to the leg of the table, with his mouth strangled with a chew, and was constantly digging the ground with his paws, as if he wanted to escape. The old man smiled sideways, bent down and grabbed the struggling puppy.
Her body left the table, just in time for a clear view of the night. In the dim light of the oil lamp, there was a small skeleton on the table, apparently pieced together, with a black object stained in the middle of each bone, as if it had been used to fix it, but the skeleton was incomplete, and the arm bone of the right hand was still empty.
The night scared the three souls to the seven spirits, and almost lost their voices on the spot. She hurriedly put her hand in her gaping mouth to prevent herself from accidentally screaming.
The old man held the dog in front of his eyes and stroked the puppy's back. The puppy looked terrified, constantly swaying upwards, and let out a low whimper from its bound mouth, as if begging for mercy. The old man cracked his hollow mouth and smiled, and his voice was strange.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. You have to be a good companion to my good grandson and be a good companion for him. β
She put her hand on the dog's head, and a gurgling sound came out of her throat, and her old twig-like withered fingers twirled slightly. A small gap immediately opened in the dog's head, and the gap slowly expanded, and the old woman reached out and pulled it in the air, and a complete dog skeleton was pulled out of the puppy's body!
The flesh and skin that had lost the skeleton fell to the ground on its stomach, and the old man held the complete skeleton in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, letting out a strange laugh.
Su Ye's hand had been bitten out of deep tooth marks, and she couldn't control it anymore. She crouched down and shrunk into the corner, shivering, like grass swaying slightly in the bleak wind and rain.
"No, calm down. Childe is still in the house, so I have to take him away quickly. β
She thought, and quickly got up to sneak back into the house. Unexpectedly, when I wanted to get up, my elbow knocked down a jar in the corner of the wall, making a "bang" sound.
The old man in the room heard the movement and turned his head sharply, his eyes wide open under the withered yellow white hair, and the tangled wrinkles were full of hostility. As if she had been rejuvenated in an instant, in the blink of an eye, she rushed to the window like a monkey, pushed the window violently, and roared hoarsely in her throat.
"Who is it?"
"It's me."
The chubby little boy scratched his head, tilted his face, and looked uncomfortably at the clouds floating at his feet.
The strong man in front of him, who was several times taller than him, laughed, and the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand trembled with his body, and the ornaments on his armor collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
"Ouch, isn't this the famous Peachwood Daisen. Daxian, why don't you stay on your Yingzhou Immortal Mountain and turn yourself into a little bit and run around, it's fun. Ha ha! β
"Shut up, Wide-Eyed King." The peach tree fairy stomped his foot angrily. "I don't have time to joke with you. I have an urgent matter to see the Jade Emperor, so pass it on for me. β
The Wide-eyed Heavenly King stroked his long beard and sneered: "Old Peach Tree, the last time you came to pay homage to the Jade Emperor seems to have been four hundred years ago. It's rare for you to move, what kind of wind blew you to the Lingxiao Hall this time? β
Tao Muxian said angrily: "Naturally, there is something important, if you don't pass it on, you can look good if you miss a big thing!" β
The wide-eyed Heavenly King twisted his eyebrows, and the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand stomped down fiercely: "Old peach tree, you don't come to this set." It's more serious than this heavenly king, but I'm afraid you don't have that ability yet. β
"You're trying to make things difficult!" The peach wood fairy was so angry that her little face turned red. The Wide-eyed Heavenly King is too tall, and it is already very hard for him to keep his head up and talk, and he is so angry at this time that he is even more angry.
"It's just to make it difficult for you, what can you do to me?" The tall god bent down and turned his face to the peach tree fairy, and squirted out a breath from his nose fiercely, blowing the peach wood fairy away.
"Wide-eyed Heavenly King, the situation is urgent now, I must see the Jade Emperor immediately." Taomu Xian forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said anxiously. "The ghost gate has been opened, and the lives of the nether world are in misery, and it is time to delay."
"The hell is open!" The wide-eyed Heavenly King was covered with frost and said in amazement.
"Exactly. When I settled for a thousand years, for some reason, Yu Lei and Shen Tu were paralyzed by the demon petrification and demonic arts, and the ghost gate also opened a gap, escaping some demons with high mana, among which there were demons who destroyed my thousand-year-old root system, so that I only had a hundred years of Taoism, and this became such a child. Now that the ghost gate has been temporarily resealed, I can't tell when it will be broken again, and even if my skills are complete, I'm not sure that I can resist the impact of the demons. Otherwise, it would be impossible to come to ask for help in such a hurry, and pass the Jade Emperor quickly. β
As he spoke, the dwarf immortal bypassed the Wide-eyed Heavenly King and wanted to break through.
"Slow down......," the knife in the hand of the Wide-eyed Heavenly King was horizontal, blocking the peach wood fairy. Whether the ghost door is open or not, it is all a matter of the world, what does it have to do with the fairy world? β
"Why don't you understand!" Momoki Fairy screamed in a hurry. "The demons in the ghost gate are likely to have infiltrated the Nether, and Shenzhou is about to turn into a Blood River Purgatory! At present, the Song Emperor is mediocre, and the people's hearts are greatly lost, if the spirit of the orthodox royal family in the Central Plains that suppressed the ghost gate is exhausted again, the ghost gate will be opened, and the ghost and the ghost are rampant, is it something that you and I are happy to see? β
"That's a matter of the Netherworld, and it has nothing to do with Lingxiao Palace." The Wide-Eyed Heavenly King shook the weapon in his hand, threw out the peach wood fairy who was blocking in front of him, and landed in a cloud of clouds. "Old Peach Tree, you don't manage the ghost door well, and you blame it from above, you still have to bear this matter after all. Let mortals take care of the affairs of the world, and those demons and demons, if they want to offend the fairy world, discipline them and have no return. β
"If the Nether Realm becomes a paradise for demons, will the gods still be able to live a happy life?" Momoki Fairy struggled to his feet from the clouds and shouted excitedly.
"Alarmist." The Wide-eyed Heavenly King unceremoniously cross-examined. "For the sake of many years of friendship, I advise you, old peach tree. You don't even want me to see your stinky temper, let alone expect Lingxiao Hall to clean up the mess for you. For those who have not been in court for 400 years, there is no place for you in front of the Jade Emperor! With that said, get out of here. β
With a wave of his blade, the Wide-eyed Heavenly King immediately covered up the layers of clouds and mist, enveloping the towering Jade Pillar of the South Heavenly Gate and the mountains and mountains in the distance. The peach wood fairy watched in a daze as the pavilions disappeared from view, and the sound of silk and bamboo from the depths of the clouds gradually became obscure. He clenched his fists fiercely, crouched in the clouds, gritted his teeth, and tried his best to restrain the impulses in his heart.
A terrible thought popped into his mind. He shook his head to dispel the strange thought, but the next moment, it quickly came back to his mind. Momoki Immortal pondered that the development of things was now beyond his control, and it would only get worse and worse. At this time, it is impossible to count on the pampered immortal class in the Lingxiao Palace, but who else can preside over this crisis?
He looked at the shadowy palace cornices in the clouds, and snorted disdainfully: "Sooner or later, you will regret it." He turned around to straighten the folds of his clothes, and there was a glimmer of surprise in his eyes, but it was fleeting.
"Jiuli Heavenly Palace......
He pronounced the word softly, and his body trembled slightly.
The old woman's mournful hissing suddenly stopped, and there was a wide silence outside the window, except for the sound of the drizzling rain in response to her.
She looked around suspiciously, the crooked jars on the ground, the trampled weeds on the wall. The old woman sneered twice, then returned to her old form, took off the stick that had been holding the window, and walked back into the house tremblingly, where the oil lamp was blown out and the room fell into a dark silence.
After a moment's pause, a faint green light suddenly flashed from the wall, a small grass curled up flickered a few times, the leaves slowly opened, and the green light transformed into a long-awaited figure. It turned out that the matter was urgent just now, and she only escaped by immediately turning into the shape of flowers and plants.
She listened to the movement in the house again, and when she was sure that there was no sound, she ran her hands and feet along the wall back to the hut where she lived, and slipped through the crack in the half-open door. When she reached the temporary safety of the place, she stroked her chest and gasped for air.
"Gotta get out of here, stay a little longer and you'll be in more danger." Su Ye hurriedly pushed open Zhang Xun's door, picked up his clothes and hurriedly dressed him, and supported him on his shoulders.
"Childe, you must hold on."
Su Ye lifted the boy's body a little harder, and carefully pushed the door open.
The moment she opened the door, in the dim light outside, the old man grinned toothlessly, revealing a smiling expression, staring meaningfully at the frightened girl. She finally screamed in shock.
