Chapter 34: Distant Tales 2
After hearing this, His Majesty the King of Mingxuan smiled miserably, and then said, "In the end, that huge magic circle is still opened!" It's just, it's just ~~~" After saying this, King Mingxuan seemed to suddenly recall a scene that people can never forget, and his eyes were full of horror!
"Whose flesh and blood, then, were sacrificed? Didn't you just say that only with the flesh and blood of your royal family can you open that magic circle? Liu Jianfei continued.
"Not bad! However, my sister had already fled, and in that case, I was the only king in the entire royal family! Therefore, who else but let me sacrifice myself? King Mingxuan sighed again.
"What, you, you personally sacrificed? You're a king! Liu Jianfei's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief, and he almost stood up!
After hearing this, the King of Mingxuan smiled miserably again and said, "King? Hmph, the country is not a country, where can we talk about any more kings! But don't worry, I've only had an arm cut off, and it's not going to hurt my life. ”
After Liu Jianfei heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. Yes, it wasn't until now that he discovered that it was true that this King Mingxuan was really missing an arm! In addition, at this moment, His Majesty the King has a haggard and old face, so it does not look like a human being.
"So, what about the end result?" Liu Jianfei still asked.
"Finally?" The King of Mingxuan smiled bitterly, and then said, "The final result is the way I am now!" When the ban on that huge circle was lifted, the dark dragon that had been suppressed all this time was finally free! However, after the dark dragon was freed, although with its huge destructive power, it divided those coalition forces by three and five and directly wiped out, and at the same time, because this dark dragon itself was not completely subdued, therefore, next, along with our Sunset Kingdom, was also destroyed! After saying this, the King of Mingxuan looked gloomy, and his face looked even older and haggard.
Half a day later, King Mingxuan said again: "Do you know? Our Sunset Kingdom is an ancient kingdom that once stood in the desert of the north for hundreds of years! We have swept everywhere, we have been illustrious! However, all of this has been reduced to nothingness with the return of that dark dragon! On the ground, the majestic city, the gorgeous palace, and the busy market are gone. It's all gone, and at that time, with the ravages of the evil dragon, everything here has come to naught!
"Everything that was originally in ruins was in ruins, desolate and desolate. The prosperity of the past, the past, have become clouds. And I, the king, have become the prisoner of the evil dragon! It's always been like this, and I've been imprisoned here. That's my story. ”
After saying this, the King of Mingxuan was quiet again. Yes, he was tired enough of all at once. Bursts of wheezing sounded like an old man, barely breathing.
"But, Your Majesty, why did you survive? It stands to reason that you, as Your Majesty the King of the Sunset Country, should be the first to be killed, and it should be you! But aren't you still alive and well? Liu Jianfei looked puzzled.
After hearing this, the King of Mingxuan sighed again, and then said, "Alas, do you think that evil dragon will be so merciful? It just didn't kill it, and naturally there was a reason. You know, the reason why I was able to release that evil dragon in the first place was because it ruined one of my arms! Because only the blood of our royal family can break through the sealing array!
"However, after the evil dragon was released, it formed a dependence on the blood of our royal family. So, every once in a while, the dragon must come and suck my blood, or it will die! Suffice it to say, over the years, it is my blood that has nourished this evil dragon! ”
――――――――――――――――――――――――
After hearing this, Liu Jianfei thought for a while, and then said: "But, King Mingxuan, since you hate that evil dragon so much, and since it is so dependent on your blood, once it leaves your blood, it can no longer survive, so why do you keep losing its way of life?" ”
After hearing this, the King of Mingxuan smiled bitterly, and then said, "Young man, do you think I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Actually, I'm tired of this rotten life of mine for a long time! I also know that as long as I die, then this evil dragon will die because it can no longer suck the blood of our royal family!
"However, the reason why I didn't do it was not because of anything else, but because~~ because, alas, you know, I have only one relative in this world, and that is my sister! Moreover, I firmly believe that although she has never appeared, I firmly believe that she is not dead, she must be in some corner of this world! Moreover, she should live well, because she has someone who loves her so much, that is, the Blue Ice General, who has always been by her side!
"It's not that I'm worried about her, but I really miss her! After all, she's the only relative I have in this world! If it weren't for my sister, young man, you and I wouldn't have this fate today, and I'm here to talk about these old things that have long been dusty! Suffice it to say, sister, is the only reason for me to survive in this world! ”
―――――――――――――――――――――――
After Liu Jianfei heard this, he nodded silently, and then said, "Oh, Your Majesty King Mingxuan, I seem to have some understanding now!" This, when you first met me, you asked me to complete a task for you, and now, I think, the task you asked me to complete must be to find your sister for you! Isn't it? ”
After hearing this, His Majesty King Mingxuan suddenly raised his head, glanced at Liu Jianfei in a daze, and after a long time, he said, "Young man, I didn't expect that you are really smart enough!" Yes, as you said, I just want you to find my sister for me! Because I've basically become a wreck now, and I don't have the ability to act at all!
"And I have promised you just now, if you can complete this task for me, then I will definitely reward you heavily! In addition, "After saying this, His Majesty King Mingxuan looked around, as if he was afraid of being heard, and finally, he beckoned to Liu Jianfei and said, "Young man, please come here, I have something to say to you!" ”
Seeing this King Mingxuan so mysterious, Liu Jianfei felt a little funny. Damn, when has it been, and it's still so mysterious? However, looking at King Mingxuan's expression again, it looked very solemn.
So, Liu Jianfei couldn't help but think: "It seems that this guy really has something important to say to himself!" Moreover, for security reasons, they dare not speak out! So, Liu Jianfei stood up, and then slowly moved his body.
When there was still some distance away from the King of Mingxuan, Liu Jianfei finally stopped, and said to him with a smile: "Your Majesty King Mingxuan, this, you haven't figured it out yet, have I already promised you to go and find your sister for you?" ”
After hearing this, King Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, and then he also smiled: "Young man, with my eyesight, I already knew at the first glance after seeing you that you were the person I was looking forward to day and night!" This is a task that only you can complete! Perhaps, this is the arrangement of God in the dark! ”
"You're so confident?" Liu Jianfei said with a smile still on his face. Yes, in the face of this King Mingxuan, who seemed to be only a teenager, Liu Jianfei was repeatedly called "young and young" by him, and he naturally felt very uncomfortable in his heart. Damn, damn, Lao Tzu is much more than you, a little hairy child, there is no hair on his mouth, so call himself like this! If I hadn't been in prison now, I'm afraid I would have turned my face with you a long time ago!
However, to be honest, Liu Jianfei was still attracted by the words of this King Mingxuan. Not for anything else, just to be able to get a way out, so that I can leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, which is what I hope for the most now. And this person in front of him seems to be able to help himself!
"Well, now, I have seen the answer in your eyes! Rest assured, as long as you do what I say, then I will be able to guarantee that you will escape from here smoothly in the first place! King Mingxuan looked directly at Liu Jianfei and said word by word.
Liu Jianfei also stared at King Mingxuan tightly, and after a long time, he nodded slightly and said, "Okay!" I believe you! Now, you can say, where exactly should I go to find your sister? After meeting your sister, what exactly should I tell you? ”
After hearing this, the King of Mingxuan smiled heartily, and then said, "Haha, haha, good, good!" Sure enough! I like it! Now, please come over and I'm going to tell you a little bit about it. ”
Liu Jianfei had to get closer to him again, and then, when Liu Jianfei was only half a step away from the king of Mingxuan, he realized that this king of Mingxuan was clearly a doll! A typical baby face, although it shows the vicissitudes of life, but the childishness unique to a child still can't hide it on his face.
At this time, the King of Mingxuan finally came to Liu Jianfei's ear and whispered: "Young man, after leaving here, as long as you keep walking all the way to the west, you will eventually arrive at a place in the extreme west. There, there is a Kunlun Mountain, and my sister, Princess Mingyue, will most likely be there. ”
After Liu Jianfei heard this, he stared at His Majesty King Mingxuan, and after looking at it for a long time, he then asked: "Uh, this, Your Majesty, how can you conclude that in the Kunlun Mountains in the extreme west, your sister will definitely be there?" How can you be so sure? ”
After hearing this, His Majesty King Mingxuan smiled bitterly, and then said, "Young man, you don't know anything! Quite early, when my father was still alive, and especially when our former kingdom was at its peak, a manor was built in the Kunlun Mountains. It's just that we've never been there. However, despite this, my father once told us that although we were not allowed to go there in normal times, we could take refuge there when necessary.
"Because of that manor located in the Kunlun Mountains, only the descendants of our royal family know about it, and the others don't know it at all, and it has a strong secrecy. Therefore, when my sister and the Blue Ice General finally disappeared, I already realized that there was a good chance that they had gone there!
"Once you really see my sister, please tell him about my current situation, so that she and my brother-in-law, the Blue Ice General, will come to rescue me. However, there is also a precondition that they must be able to unleash the power of that golden crown! Because only after they can induce the power of that golden crown can they defeat the dark dragon! ”
After hearing this, Liu Jianfei couldn't help but nodded, and then said, "Since that's the case, then, okay, I promise you!" Now, can you help me get out of here? ”
The King of Mingxuan glanced at Liu Jianfei, then turned around, and after tinkering on the ground for a while, he actually lifted a stone slab, and then said to Liu Jianfei: "This is the entrance to the outside world, after you get into it from here, you can leave here and reach a safe place." ”
Liu Jianfei looked at the entrance of the passage that had just been revealed, it looked black and mysterious. The King of Mingxuan looked at Liu Jianfei's stunned appearance, and said with a smile: "This, young man, don't you dare to go down?" Haha, haha, if that's the case, then, forget it, it seems that you won't be able to complete this task either! ”
Liu Jianfei was naturally the least afraid of agitation, and after hearing this, he immediately said, "How can you say that?" It's just that it's so dark in this cave, how can I go down? ”
"You don't have to worry about that! You just have to walk down the stairs and you're good to go! You may wonder, how did this secret passage come about? I'll tell you the truth, it's been spent hundreds of years digging in the dead of night! So that one day, someone will go out to find my sister for me! Unexpectedly, now, I have finally waited for this day! On the side wall of the dark passage, I have placed some permanent lights, which can completely illuminate the way forward! ”
After hearing this, Liu Jianfei continued: "Okay, since that's the case, then, I'll do what you say!" After saying this, Liu Jianfei came to the entrance of the secret passage, and was about to go down the steps. However, it was not until this time that Liu Jianfei felt that there seemed to be something on his body that was not very strong. He twisted his body, and then he realized that his hands were still tied now!
Immediately, Liu Jianfei said to King Mingxuan: "I said Your Majesty, do you think you can untie the rope that binds my hands?" Otherwise, how can I get out? Once I encounter a few skeleton zombie soldiers, I'm dead! If that's the case, I won't be able to complete the task you gave me! ”
After hearing this, the king of Mingxuan smiled slightly, and then said, "Hehe, hehe, this is easy!" Do you think, since I can dig such a passage out, then it is not a trivial matter to untie the rope that binds you? As he spoke, the King of Mingxuan, as if he was playing a trick, pulled out a short knife from behind him.
Liu Jianfei looked at it and was almost happy: Damn, what kind of short knife is this! It looked black, like wood. This, this, this is also called a short knife? However, just as Liu Jianfei was thinking, all of a sudden, I saw that King Mingxuan casually shaking his hand behind Liu Jianfei's back! Then, Liu Jianfei just felt the light flashing in front of his eyes, and then he felt that his hands were much more relaxed all of a sudden!
"Wow, damn it, I can't see it, I really can't see it! I didn't expect that this short knife, which looked so simple, was so sharp! But it's so sharp! Well, this is really a treasure, this is really a treasure! Liu Jianfei couldn't help but think to himself.
Then, Liu Jianfei quickly entered the secret passage. And not long after he had just entered it, there was a "boom" sound above his head, and then, the secret entrance, like this, was gradually blocked by reloading, and it looked seamless. Liu Jianfei couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, and he admired this King Mingxuan more and more.
However, at this time, it was pitch black in front of his eyes, and he couldn't see anything clearly. Although, faintly, he could see some permanent lights on the wall, but the light was still too dim for him to get used to it all at once.
