The voice was a little ethereal, and I followed the sound as I walked forward, and then I saw a woman crying with a child in her arms, and the woman looked pitiful, and there was nothing around here.

The woman beckoned to her and said, "Help me, save my child."

I just wanted to step forward, but the next second, the woman's child was snatched and thrown to the ground, and the woman's head was also cut off, and blood splattered on my face.

I was blindfolded for a few seconds.

I walked quickly forward, but the scene changed quickly, and then I saw an old man leading a child. Isn't that old man my grandfather? I quickly caught up and called out to my grandfather, who turned to look at me and smiled at me. Then he quickly ran forward.

I chased after it, but I didn't.

No, no, these must be fake, I reminded myself in my heart.

I silently recited the meditation mantra that Daoist Qiu had given me earlier, and when I finished it, I found myself lying on a mountain. There are tombstones on the mountain, but when I saw them, I didn't think they were so scary, because they were very familiar.

It's the Turtle Ridge in my hometown.

Legend has it that Turtle Ridge is buried with the turtle prime minister of the East China Sea, so it is named Turtle Ridge.

But the villagers have lived in the neighborhood for hundreds of years, and the dead are buried in Turtle Ridge, and the grave of the Prime Minister of the East Sea Turtle has never been found.

Could it be that the old turtle in the depths of this well has a connection with the turtle ridge in our hometown?

Since this is Turtle Ridge, is the Yellow River also near here, I looked towards the place, but I didn't see the Yellow River. I wanted to run to the village, but I didn't find it. There's something evil in this place.

I spun around here again, and suddenly a door appeared in front of me.

When I saw this door, I pushed it open and walked in, and when I entered, I found that it was actually a government office. The government office reads, Tianguan Mansion three words. There were a few officials standing next to the government office, but they didn't look like ordinary officials. They were well-dressed and had solemn faces.

When the official saw me, he called me Zhang Shangxian, you are here.

I was stunned for a few seconds.

Zhang Shangxian? Is this calling me? I felt a little embarrassed, so I didn't respond. The Tianguan Mansion was already crowded with people, and when they saw me coming, they all looked at me sideways, and then made way for me, and in the main hall of the mansion, there were two or three chairs, and the people sitting were all people with fairy wind bones.

One of the old men I am still familiar with, the same old man who asked me to slay the dragon in my dream that day.

When the old man saw me, he got up and arched his hand at me and said, "Zhang Shangxian, why are you free today?" ”

I said to the old man, "What day is it?"

The old man stroked his beard and said to me, "Today is the day of the trial of the Prime Minister of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, Zhang Shangxian, you don't know, right?" ”

I shook my head.

The old man smiled and said to me, It's not surprising that Zhang Shangxian is usually in the mood to care about these things.

The person in the center of the hall hasn't come yet, I stared at it a few times, and the old man seemed to guess what I was looking at, so he said to me, today's chief judge is Zhou Shangxian, you won't even forget this, right?

I shook my head and nodded again.

At this time, the official suddenly shouted that Zhou Shangxian had arrived!

The old man pulled me to his side and said to me, let's talk about something slowly.

I hummed, I looked at the so-called Zhou Shangxian, it was a raw face, and I asked the old man, what crime did Prime Minister Donghai Turtle commit?

The old man said that he was guilty of deceiving the king, plotting to rebel, and disobeying the will of the emperor.

I was stunned for a few seconds and said, even if it is the Dragon King, he would not dare to disobey the will of the Emperor of Heaven, just by virtue of the turtle prime minister of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea?

The old man smiled and said that he didn't dare, but the people behind him dared.

I then asked, who was the person behind him? The old man looked at me in surprise again, and then said lightly, It is rumored that the person behind the Prime Minister of the East Sea Turtle is you Zhang Shangxian.

I rolled my eyes at the old man and did not continue to speak. I began to look at the environment here, and I suddenly understood that I came here, maybe Prime Minister Gui deliberately got me here. Zhou Shangxian wore a white dress, his face was like white jade, and his temperament was noble. There was a domineering aura all over his body.

When he came, the rest of the people stood up, and the old man also stood up politely and pulled me down.

But I sat still and didn't move, and when I saw this so-called Zhou Shangxian, I felt that something was wrong in my heart.

After Zhou Shangxian sat down, the rest of the people also sat down.

The old man reminded me in a whisper, Zhang Shangxian, you and Zhou Shangxian don't deal with each other themselves, and now that you are disrespectful to him, you are not afraid that he will seize your handle this time and not let you go.

I said to the old man, are you with Zhou Shangxian?

The old man smiled bitterly and said, I am so heartfelt to Zhang Shangxian, don't you know who the old man is with?

I didn't continue to talk to the old man. Zhou Shangxian quickly asked people to bring the East China Sea Turtle Prime Minister up, the Prime Minister of the Turtle was locked with iron cables, and he looked a little embarrassed, and when he arrived in the center of the main hall, the official asked the Prime Minister of the Turtle to kneel.

The turtle prime minister does not kneel when he dies.

Zhou Shangxian snorted coldly and said to Prime Minister Gui, Prime Minister Gui, are you plotting to lead the Shui tribe to rebel, say quickly, who instructed you?

Zhou Shangxian spoke, his eyes fell on me, this meaning is obvious, that is, to let Prime Minister Gui identify me.

Prime Minister Turtle replied that the old turtle had not been instructed by anyone and had not thought of rebelling.

Zhou Shangxian directly took out an official letter and said, still arguing, isn't this document written by you? Written to the general of the water tribe, let him prepare for a rebellion. The handwriting and signature are all yours. What else do you have to say?

Prime Minister Turtle said, the document was written by the old turtle, but the document does not mean rebellion, I just have a good personal relationship with the general of the water tribe. There are contacts in private.

Did Zhou Shangxian say yes?

Prime Minister Gui Cheng is neither humble nor arrogant, saying yes.

Prime Minister Gui continued: "What about this one? Which immortal are you going to write to, and let him be ready for everything, only owing Dongfeng. Who is the immortal you want to give this letter to? ”

Prime Minister Kametsu did not answer immediately. Zhou Shangxian continued: "I heard that this letter was written to Zhang Shangxian, isn't it?" ”

After these words fell, everyone was in an uproar, and Prime Minister Gui quickly retorted that it was not written to me.

Zhou Shangxian turned to me and said, "Zhang Shangxian punished you by the Emperor of Heaven some time ago, did you hold a grudge, so there was a change?" ”

Before I could speak, the old man stood up and said to Zhou Shangxian: "Zhou Shangxian, Zhang Shangxian has been drinking and playing chess with Lao Xian and me these days, and I can prove that he has not made any changes." ”

Zhou Shangxian's eyes became a little gloomy, but he didn't continue to say anything. turned to the turtle prime minister and said, "Old turtle, as long as you are willing to tell the people behind you, this immortal will ask the Emperor of Heaven to be lenient with you." ”

Prime Minister Gui only said a few words, and there was no excuse for the crime he wanted to add.

Zhou Shangxian was completely enraged, and said a few words in a suppressed voice, stubborn. Someone! Hold it down and carry out the death penalty.

The old turtle was escorted down.

When passing by me, the old turtle stopped, and the official pressed the old turtle to move forward. I stood up and told the servants not to be so anxious, and I asked the old turtle if he had anything to say to me, but the old turtle didn't say anything, and knelt down in front of me with a pop. He kowtowed to me a few times.

I quickly helped the old turtle up and said, "What are you doing here?"

The old turtle said to me, Zhang Shangxian, thank you for listening to the old turtle say fair words many times, the old turtle has nothing to repay, so he can only kowtow a few times.

I said no.

The old turtle was quickly pushed to the guillotine, and I followed the old turtle to the guillotine, and everyone gathered around to watch. I look at this guillotine and look a little familiar, it is the guillotine in my dream that day, where I beheaded the dragon of the East China Sea.

The old turtle lay on his stomach, and the executioner quickly stepped forward.

Zhou Shangxian did not delay, and directly ordered the executioner to do his hand, I wanted to step forward, but was stopped by the old man. The old man told me not to be impulsive.

I didn't care so much, I stepped forward and said, stop, just with two letters, you want to kill the old turtle, isn't it too hasty.

Zhou Shangxian smiled and said, what? Zhang Shangxian, is this going to be punished for the old turtle?

What did he mean when I asked him?

Zhou Shangxian said to me in a mocking tone: "Zhang Shangxian, don't stand up and don't have the guts, there is a clearly stipulated rule in our Tianguan Mansion, if someone is sentenced to death, and someone is willing to die on behalf of the prisoner, then the prisoner can get a light sentence." Zhang Shangxian, you can't even forget this rule, otherwise, Zhang Shangxian is scared at all. ”

The old man took a step ahead of me and said: "Zhou Shangxian, Zhang Shangxian doesn't mean this, whoever commits it will bear it." ”

The old turtle also said to me, Zhang Shangxian, you have helped the old turtle enough, and the old turtle has nothing to repay, so he can only remember it.

Zhou Shangxian said coldly, if you don't dare to be punished on behalf of others, don't be a good person here and delay everyone's time.

I said to Zhou Shangxian: "If the old turtle is wronged, what if I am punished for him?" ”

Zhou Shangxian seized the opportunity and immediately said to me: "Really? ”

I said seriously.

Zhou Shangxian suddenly laughed a few times and said, Okay, Zhang Shangxian can't regret it, come on, go and report to the Emperor of Heaven Zhang Shangxian wants to be punished on behalf of the old turtle, see if the Emperor of Heaven allows it?

The official received the order and quickly ran away.

The old man hurriedly chased after the servant.

At this time, there were still a few people around me who persuaded me that it was too late for Zhang Shangxian to change his mind now.

I said no. After a while, the official ran over and returned to Zhou Shangxian and said that the Emperor of Heaven agreed that Zhang Shangxian would be punished for the old turtle.

Zhou Shangxian's smile was even worse, and he asked people to bring the old turtle down, and then said to me, "Zhang Shangxian, please." As he spoke, he made a gesture of please. I walked forward, but the old turtle shouted to me that the old turtle was willing to die, and there was no need for Zhang Shangxian to punish the old turtle.

Zhou Shangxian shouted angrily, how can the Emperor's will be changed if it is changed. Someone! Take this old turtle down.

I passed by the old turtle, and the old turtle told me no.

I walked straight to the guillotine, knelt in front of the guillotine, and put my head on it. Zhou Shangxian couldn't wait to order the executioner to do it, I raised my eyes and watched the glittering knife edge fall, but in the next second, I said something that amazed everyone......
