Chapter 179: Sanctuary
Her words made me stunned for a moment. Yes, after all, the Blood Rock Furnace is my Tao family's thing, and after all, I have to decide what to do with it. If it were possible, maybe I really wanted to push this difficult multiple-choice question on someone else's side instead of dwelling on it myself.
"Anyway, let's see when we get to the top of the mountain." She concluded.
"Hmm." I nodded.
Although we were delayed for some time because of the plot, the subsequent process was surprisingly smooth. When we climbed the last rock wall, traced a river and walked for less than half an hour, we finally reached the top of Buxian Mountain!
At this time, twilight was near, and although the sky was still full of clouds and light snow was falling continuously, it was like a huge curtain, emitting a reddish light, which was reflected by the white snow, and the surrounding area was a wandering red.
In this strange light, we saw the undisturbed, mirror-like Tianchi! Behind it, there are more than a dozen mountain peaks, one after another, like the stars holding the moon, guarding this sacred lake known as the haunt of the dragon!
This Changbai Mountain was originally a volcano, and now the Tianchi shrouded in red light is already a piece of crimson, and it is impossible to tell whether it is water or hot lava, which gives a great visual impact and is even more shocking!
Although I have also seen Tianchi once, this time I can finally see it after so many twists and turns, and it is a completely different state of mind!
Yue Ningmei and I stood there without words for a long time.
After a long time, Yue Ningmei spoke: "Today is the fifth day of the ninth lunar month, Jiaxu Day, Humen is in Gen, Shengmen is shaking, let's go east!" ”
"Okay, let's see if we can meet them!"
Extrapolating from the direction, Rui Wei and they should be in our east, I originally thought that I could see them when I came up, or maybe I met those people from the Digging Ying Group, but now in addition to the Tianchi water, there are only boundless strange peaks and strange stones, and I can't see a single figure.
After walking for a while, Yue Ningmei stretched out his hand to stop me and said, "This is it." ”
I looked around, there was still no one, although I felt a little strange in my heart, but I always felt that the business was important, so I took out the blood rock furnace from my arms, and slowly followed Yue Ningmei down the hill and walked towards the edge of the heavenly pool.
The more I walked forward, the more I felt a cool breath coming to my face, it was the breath of Tianchi water, although the temperature here was quite low, but this pool water seemed to contain mysterious energy, and it was not frozen at all.
In such an atmosphere, my consciousness also became clear, and I suddenly felt as if there was some force pushing me behind me, wanting me to walk into this pool of water and send the Blood Rock Furnace into this sacred realm at the junction of yin and yang!
I was about to step down with my right hand to hold up the Blood Rock Furnace when I heard someone shouting from behind, "Slow! ”
Because I was too focused, this interruption made me feel terrified, and I subconsciously stopped and looked back.
I saw two figures on the top of the slope not far away, one in front of the other, looking at us. Because it's so far away that I can't see who it is.
The shout sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was, and I was hesitating when one of the two was already walking down the slope, and I saw that he was wearing a black robe with a hood, and his whole face was covered by the brim.
When he walked to a place that was only about three or five meters away from us, the man stopped, stretched out his hand and pulled down the hood, and at the same time smiled at Yue Ningmei: "Aifei, don't come to harm." ”
"Ahh I couldn't help but blurt out an exclamation, I looked at the person in shock and shouted, "Your Majesty! ”
I can't be mistaken, that face with an excellent face, but how uncomfortable it is, I will never forget, it is today, Emperor Liu Zhi of Han Huan!
What's the situation? How did Liu Zhi come here? And also called Yue Ningmei "love concubine"!
Liu Zhi ignored me completely, and just said softly to Yue Ningmei: "I have been so hard to find it all these years. ”
After a while, Yue Ning frowned and said calmly, "Why are you here?" I couldn't see her expression from my point of view, but listening to that tone, it was not at all an attitude towards an emperor's speech, and more importantly, it didn't seem to refute what the other party said.
I just felt a buzz in my head, blindfolded! Couldn't say a word, just stared at her back in disbelief.
Only then did Liu Zhi turn his gaze to me, and then glanced at the Blood Rock Furnace I was holding in my hand, and then looked at Yue Ning and said, "I know that it is something I want, why don't you give it to me, but you want to bring it here?" ”
Yue Ningmei was silent.
"It's been all these years, are you still blaming me? Now I can finally fulfill the promise I made back then, the Liang family will soon be destroyed, and I will take back my world, after that, the first thing I will do is to take you back to the palace! Liu Zhi said, his tone eager.
"You, have you teamed up with the Diggers?" Yue Ningmei seemed a little surprised when she heard this, and asked like this.
Liu Zhi seemed to have been poked in the sore spot all of a sudden, and nodded after a pause: "Yes." ”
When Yue Ningmei heard him say this, he sighed lightly and said, "Time has passed, everything in the past has passed, so don't be attached anymore." ”
"Frown," Liu Zhi said, "I know you've been helping me, otherwise you wouldn't have been sending people to provoke a fight between my hostile forces, you want me to regain imperial power, right?" ”
Yue Ningmei asked in a deep voice, "Who said these words to you?" ”
Liu Zhi was stunned for a moment and replied, "If he hadn't come to tell me this, how would I know your mind?" There's no way to know you're here. He is also for our good, I hope you don't blame him. ”
He? Who is it? My heart was in turmoil, and I wondered.
"Come down!" Liu Zhi turned around and ordered.
The other man on the slope slowly walked down when he heard the sound, walked closer and said, "I've seen the Holy Aunt." ”
When I saw it, it was a reasonable and unexpected person, Du Zifeng!
As soon as I saw him, I felt a paralyzing feeling of anger all over my body, and I closed my eyes, and my consciousness was in chaos. The chest was sore and suffocating, and breathing was even more difficult. My hands clenched unconsciously, and I touched the wound that Yue Ningmei had bandaged for me, and a tingling pain ran through my body!
Although I didn't want to think about it, I still had the same judgment as subconsciously appeared in my mind, and I suddenly understood why Du Zifeng wanted to run between various forces and use the Blood Rock Furnace to deepen the contradictions between them, it turned out that there was such a person who planned everything behind the scenes!
Yue Ningmei just looked at Du Zifeng, but still didn't speak.
"How? It's almost time to fulfill my wish for immortality, right? Liu Zhi suddenly broke the silence and said. (To be continued.) )
