Chapter 80: Long Memories (8)
The pure white eagle took off from the altar and soared into the sky, plunging headlong into the rainy clouds. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The raging corpses were drenched in the rain, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and their speed increased by more than a little, attacking all the living creatures in their vicinity.
With his sword in hand, Hongyuan walked slowly among the crowds of corpses, swinging his sword and slashing down a corpse with each step, his white coat splattered with blood.
He didn't know what kind of material his clothes were made of, and the rain and blood were constantly splashing, but they could not penetrate his coat, and could only slide down the placket of his clothes and return to the ground.
Like the corpses around him, he walked looking for living creatures, and gradually distanced himself from Yun Ze behind him.
It wasn't until he heard a mournful cry that he came back to his senses, but when he turned his head, he could only see groups of corpses, and Yun Ze, who should be standing behind him, had long since disappeared.
Someone shouted, "Wuxi is broken!" ”
On the empty throne stood a humanoid object covered in blood.
Half of its head hangs on its shoulders, its arms are soft ~ hanging down at its sides, and it has no bones, obviously a monster that has stood up again after being dead for a long time.
The throne chair that should have been hung with the mountain and river lamp was empty, and a vague bloody handprint was left on it, making the scene look even worse, almost out of control.
Yun Ze is not so thin.
After making sure that the dead body was not the still living Witch King, Hong Yuan turned his head back to face the opponent in front of him, and exhaled silently.
He didn't even know if he should be happy or regretful.
A little farther away, thunderous footsteps were heard, probably because the guards guarding outside the altar had sensed something was wrong and finally rushed in to help.
The grand and majestic altar has been completely occupied by soulless bloodthirsty monsters, and there are not many living people left except for Hongyuan, an existence whose force is worth against the sky.
He stabbed a corpse rushing at him with a sword, raised his arm to throw it away, and whispered a whisper with his other hand, which was tucked into his sleeve.
A little red light flew out of his sleeve, and lightning swept through the air, flying in the direction where the footsteps came.
After a while, the fireball raindrops of large ~ pieces generally fell from the sky. After landing on the altar, it exploded in an instant, blasting the monster standing nearby to pieces, leaving only a layer of burnt minced flesh, crackling and falling to the ground.
Hongyuan carefully dodged the fireballs falling from the sky, searching for the living who were still alive.
He knew very well what a terrifying thing that fell from the sky.
It was originally the secret weapon of the Wu army's sweep in all directions. In terms of destructive power, it is not much worse than the Witch King's Divine Relic Fire.
It's just that this thing is not as quick as a wizard's spell, and the manufacturing process is extremely cumbersome, and the raw materials are very scarce. It is still a consumable that can only be used once, and the army that is fighting abroad is often reluctant to take it out.
The defenders of this altar are very wealthy, and such a precious thing can be thrown as sand.
Hongyuan sighed to himself, plucking the carrot and pulling out the killer he had arranged in the slaves earlier from the pile of corpses.
This kid is clever. Seeing that the situation was wrong, he held his breath and pretended to be dead for the first time, and because he was cast by Hongyuan in advance with a spell to cover up the breath of a living person, he hid until now without any flesh injuries.
It's like a rat with a survivability.
"You're fast."
Hong Yuan sneered and motioned for the man to follow him: "Did you see that little girl?" ”
"Gotta see it."
The bloodied boy grinned at Hongyuan, but he was not afraid of his master's anger at all. At this time, his face also lost the murderous ruthlessness of pretending to be a slave, and at first glance he was just an ordinary teenager.
"I guess you're looking for her, you've been staring at her just now."
He stretched out his hand and pointed to the throne that was already occupied by monsters: "She went down from that side, found a sculpture to hide, and I will take you to find it." ”
"Hmm."
Hongyuan nodded with a serious face: "You must not let her fall into the hands of others, I still have something to ask her." ”
"Those guys above are okay now."
The young man looked up at the rain clouds above with concern: "Something is wrong with this rain!" ”
"I don't know what happened to them now."
At the mention of this, Hongyuan's mind was once again confused. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't get out, he couldn't wait to go up to find someone in person: "I let the bird go up to see it, but there was no movement as soon as I went up, I hope everything is okay." ”
The monsters around him exploded one by one, and the defenders hovering around the altar didn't get any news of him, and never dared to approach, but gave them plenty of time to find someone.
"Oh, yes."
The young man walked in front of Hongyuan to lead the way, and suddenly slapped his palm with his fist: "That little girl went to the throne to hide something, and it was just secretly taken away by Yun Ze~ touching." ”
"What's that? Did you see that? ”
Hongyuan frowned, feeling that things were getting more and more tricky: "The little girl of the Jin clan has a grudge against Yun Ze, and she came today to kill him, so how could she leave something for him?" ”
"A black thing, I didn't see it clearly."
The young man stretched out his hand and gestured: "It's probably such a big fist, Yun Zeyi hid it in his clothes as if he found it, and he didn't know what kind of treasure it was...... I said that you witch kings have all run away, so don't you worry about what will happen to him? ”
"I'm worried about what he's doing? I can't die anyway. Maybe I've been scared out of my guts and run away from it. ”
Hongyuan chuckled: "If you really die, it will save us a lot of trouble." ”
"He's taken away your witch relics! You're not worried? ”
The young man looked at him suspiciously: "I remember you said before, what kind of lamp is it, but it's a baby." ”
"The treasure also depends on whose hands it is. If you give it to me, of course it's a baby, put it in Yun Ze's hands, just ......"
Hongyuan shrugged his shoulders with a helpless expression: "That's it." ”
"Got it."
The young man nodded knowingly, asked no more questions, raised his hand and pointed to the statue behind the throne and said, "That little girl is hiding under the belly of the tiger...... The tigress lying on her stomach with two cubs, do you know which one? ”
"Probably yes."
Hong Yuan frowned and recalled the dense statues on the back of the altar, vaguely remembering that there was such a thing, but for a while he couldn't remember its specific location: "Is there anything else next to it?" ”
"There's a statue of a deer."
The young man stretched out his hand and nodded on his waist: "Little deerboy, the horns haven't grown yet, it's so high, bow your head and eat grass." ”
"Oh, got it. I'll go find her. ”
Hong Yuan nodded at him with a sudden understanding: "You can help me find where Yun Ze is." Be careful, if you can't find it, forget it, don't startle the snake. That guy has been on the Witch King seat for so long, and it's not too difficult to really want to guard against you. ”
"Understood!"
The boy lazily agreed, sat down on the spot, and closed his eyes.
After a long time, every time Hongyuan recalls this incident, he will regret it incomparably,
Why didn't you pay more attention to Yun Ze at this time.
Otherwise...... Maybe the consequences of things won't be so serious.
What he didn't know was. The fate of the Wu clan was already doomed the moment Yun Ze took off the mountain and river lamp and the Wuxi stream was cut off.
When Hongyuan found the girl of the Jin clan, she was huddled in a ball, hidden in the shadow of the sculpture, trembling with nervousness.
He walked very lightly. Although he was walking on the hard stone pavement, he was still not noticed by the frightened girl until he reached out and grabbed her arm~.
The girl screamed, turned her head to reveal a face covered with tears, and bit him on the arm.
Hongyuan: "......"
He is obviously not a person who is bitten by a little girl so easily, and even rarely has the idea of pity for ordinary men when they meet an unknown beauty.
The little girl bit his arm with a mouthful of silver teeth, but instead of the soft taste she imagined, it was like biting a hard stone, and the two front teeth were faintly painful.
Hongyuan slowly withdrew his arm and looked up at the sky, pretending that nothing had happened.
"You...... What a person! ”
The girl stretched out her bloody hand and threatened him: "Have you seen the group of living dead people outside?" I recruited it, and if you dare to do anything to me, I can turn you like that in no time, believe it or not? ”
When she was on the altar before, she had been afraid of this man with an unknown purpose. At this time, the threat didn't sound very confident, but it was more like a herbivore that threatened the beast, and the way it was holding on was a bit cute.
"If you want to turn me into that, you want me to die first."
Hongyuan lowered his head and said helplessly: "Don't think about it like Yun Ze's straw bag, I still know a little about the secret method of your Jin clan." It's not a lot of trouble to manipulate corpses, it's just that it's up to you to do it, it's a little simpler. As for the ones you said out there, they've all been blown up into a pile of minced meat now, don't you know? ”
"I ...... Of course I do! ”
The girl still raised her hand, stared at a pair of bright eyes, and shouted without confidence: "How do you know that I have no other skills!" Turning you into a corpse is a blink of an eye, if you don't believe it, you can come and try it! ”
"Okay!"
Yun Ze happily agreed, bent down in front of her, and stretched out his finger to tap her heart.
The girl suddenly felt a strong current surging all over her body along her heart, and the soft~ hanging down in front of her fell to the ground, and the whole person fell forward weakly.
"Uh-uh-uh......"
She opened her mouth to ask the man in front of her what she had done to her, but she found that her whole body, even the tip of her tongue, was numb, and she couldn't even spit out a complete sentence.
She could only watch as the man triumphantly dragged himself out of the gap in the sculpture, slung it on his shoulder, and strode towards the throne square, but he had no ability to resist.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you now."
Hongyuan comforted the girl on her shoulder without sincerity: "I just have something I want to ask you, if your answer satisfies me, I will let you go." ”
All I said I was going to kill you. As for whether anyone else wants to kill you after you are released, that's not something I can control.
For example, Yun Ze and the like.
Or those who want to avenge the deaths of the leaders of the tribes in this chosen sacrifice......
The girl hung softly ~ on his shoulder, and tried to turn her eyes to look at the man above, but she could only see a little bloodstained silhouette of her face.
This guy is obviously a bastard, why is he still so good-looking?
Thinking angrily, she opened her mouth and let out a whimper of unknown meaning in protest.
"You better stop screaming."
Hongyuan said helplessly: "The saliva is flowing out, it's too ugly." ”
The girl lowered her head, and sure enough, she saw a string of shiny saliva flowing from her disobedient mouth, hanging on the placket of Hongyuan's clothes, and rolling down.
She immediately closed her mouth tightly, and her whole face flushed. Until Hongyuan threw her to another person, he didn't say anything again.
"Did you find Yun Ze?"
"Nope."
"If you don't find it, forget it, just leave him alone."
Hongyuan threw the man on his shoulder at the young man's body, patted the dust that didn't exist on his clothes, and a burning anger rose in the eyes of the girl who looked at it.
"I'll give this little girl to you first, and take her back and lock her up. Keep an eye on it, don't let those guys see it, and I'll judge it myself when I'm done. ”
"Okay—"
The thin boy stood up lazily, patted the dust on his pants, and picked up the petite girl with one hand. This movement seemed to be extremely easy, and the huge force did not match his appearance when the wind blew.
"Tsk...... The little girl looks good, why is her face so red? Could it be that you did something......"
The young man looked at Hongyuan with bad intentions: "That's right, it's so big, it's time." ”
"It's a little useful for me to keep her, but it's not good to be seen that I'm taking her with me, so I'll let you take it back first. Don't go back and talk nonsense. ”
Hongyuan lowered his head and wiped the long sword in his hand, and said casually, "If I hear any strange rumors......
"Don't worry! I'm sure I'm not going to say anything! ”
The young man cautiously looked at the red light floating on the black sword, secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, the thief's eyes rolled twice, and he swore a promise in a hurry.
"Be careful on the road and don't be seen."
Hongyuan finally explained, and began to wave his hand to drive away: "Hurry up and go back, don't get in my way here." ”
He watched the young man's back disappear from sight, and raised his hand to throw out a red light, informing him that the guards outside the altar had been controlled and could come in to clean up the mess.
The sound of rain falling on the ground gradually diminishes. As the girl is gone, this inexplicable strange rain also shows signs of stopping.
The living corpses that had made a big show on the altar were wiped out by the continuous explosions. Even if the corpse that can still move is intentionally causing trouble, without the command of the Jin girl, it will not become a climate.
I don't know when it started, and the dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate. Strands of sunlight fall through the cracks in the clouds, signaling the return of the sun.
Cries of surprise came from under the altar. When the altar guards, who had arrived a step late, saw the scene in front of them, they were immediately frightened, for fear that some of the big men would blame them for their poor guarding.
The rain has stopped, the sun is coming out, the culprit has been caught, and now the helpers have arrived...... It seemed that everything was going in a good direction, but Hongyuan's heart was still uneasy.
The few who flew into the sky still did not move, and they did not know whether they were alive or dead.
The resolute and decisive actions of the Jin girl in revenge and the shivering behavior of hiding under the sculpture afterwards really do not look like the same person.
What is it that was hidden by her and taken away by Yun Ze?
And Yun Ze...... Ran there with the mountain and river lanterns again?
These questions swirled in his mind one by one, like a heavy boulder, weighing him down.
