Chapter Fifty-Six: Gu Liang

The situation outside the palace was tense, but inside the palace it was as if it had suddenly calmed down.

At this moment, on the altar of Heavenly Time, Ouyang Ce was standing on the edge of the altar, looking at the Xiaolan County Lord on the altar with very empty eyes.

Lord Xiaolan's eyes were full of fear, she didn't know why everything had developed like this, she didn't know why she had fallen to the point where she was now.

"Are you scared?" Ouyang Ce, who was standing next to the altar, suddenly asked.

At this moment, the county lord of Xiaolan couldn't hear Ouyang Ce's voice at all, she couldn't hear anything, all she could hear was the sound of her own heartbeat.

Plop, plop.

"You must be curious as to why you are chained to this altar and why you have to be used as a medium. Ouyang Ce continued, no matter whether the county lord of Xiaolan heard it or not, he didn't plan to stop.

"Because you deserve it. ”

Ouyang Ce's sudden words made Xiao Lan's body tremble violently. She tried to struggle, but her body couldn't move as if something was firmly locked to the altar.

"This is the punishment that every stowaway deserves, and so do you, and so do others. Ouyang Ce said, put his hand on the head of the county lord of Xiaolan and said, "Can't you remember? It's really pitiful, then it's up to me to help you recall those unbearable memories." ”

As soon as Ouyang Ce's words were finished, he saw a white light burst out from Ouyang Ce's palm, heading straight for the brain of the county lord of Xiaolan.

And with this white light, the trembling on Lord Xiaolan's body became more and more intense, and there was a faint feeling that he was about to break free from the shackles of the altar.

Looking at this scene, Ouyang Ce also slowly withdrew his hand, and stood aside and looked at Xiao Lan on the altar.

In the continuous struggle, Xiao Lan's body actually emitted a little red light, and then the altar's restraint on Xiao Lan's county lord began to be a little uncontrollable, and his strength weakened.

Seeing this situation, Ouyang Ce's eyes did not show a trace of anxiety. Seeing that Xiao Lan was about to break free, eight iron chains suddenly came out from under the altar. The tips of the chains were sharp iron hooks, and after the iron hooks came out, they directly nailed Xiao Lan's limbs and body firmly to the altar.

At this point, Xiao Lan no longer had the strength to struggle.

"Looks like you've remembered it all. Ouyang Ce asked.

And Xiao Lan was lying on the altar, calmly a little weird. She only felt that her body was very cold, and even the tears from the corners of her eyes did not have a trace of warmth.

"No...... Don't ......," Xiao Lan muttered, and the voice was so small that no one could hear it except herself.

"That's not me...... That's not ...... me."

Xiao Lan lay on the altar, her voice gradually disappeared, and the whole person lay there quietly like a dead corpse.

As time passed, Ouyang Ce raised his head, and the black aura that burst out from Xiao Lan's lower abdomen gathered in the sky, and even the sky seemed to be unable to withstand the power of this black aura, and a hole was torn open.

Seeing this crack, Ouyang Ce nodded, and the eight chains on Xiao Lan's body disappeared all at once, not only that, but even the restraints that urged Xiao Lan's body disappeared together.

Even so, Xiao Lan was still lying on the altar like a corpse without moving, while Ouyang Ce beside her trembled, and a dark purple light suddenly flew out of his head, and then Ouyang Ce held the altar with one hand as if he was remembering something.

"It seems that the business of the Ancestor has been completed. Ouyang Ce held his head and looked at the county lord Xiaolan and said.

After saying that, Ouyang Ce's eyes were no longer so empty, and gradually became bright.

Looking at the corpse-like Lord Xiaolan, Ouyang Ce didn't try to communicate with her again, but walked down to the bottom of the altar for a long time. After all, Dong Xin is still below, if he is still standing here now, it is possible that Dong Xin may rush up and slaughter himself.

However, just as Ouyang Ce had just taken a step, Xiao Lan behind him suddenly spoke.

"So what are you going to do, repatriate?"

Ouyang Ce couldn't understand what Xiao Lan was saying at all, to be honest, since he entered the imperial capital, it was the ancestor who had been controlling Ouyang Ce's body, and he didn't know what the ancestor had done with his body or what he had said.

Ouyang Ce, who didn't know anything, naturally wouldn't say anything to Xiao Lan. So he walked down the altar without looking back.

Ouyang Ce didn't know where to go after he walked down the altar to meet Dong Xin Dikui and the others below, and Xiao Lan lay on the altar for almost a quarter of an hour before he gradually moved.

Xiao Lan, who had regained her movement, jumped up from the altar at once, and then slowly walked down with the tulle draped over her body.

But she had just taken two steps when a scolding voice suddenly came from in front of her.

"What people!"

Since the surroundings were still shrouded in darkness, it was visible that the distance was less than five meters, and Xiao Lan didn't know who the other party was.

But this sound has already made the other party reveal his position.

I saw that the moment the voice sounded, Xiao Lan's body suddenly disappeared, and in the next second, Xiao Lan had already tightly choked the neck of the person who was shouting just now and lifted him up.

And now, the two of them found out each other's identities, and that person turned out to be Wang Ren, who came out to find other Imperial Forest Army commanders!

The two recognized their identities, but Xiao Lan still didn't mean to let go, but pinched Wang Ren's neck and lifted Wang Ren directly above his head!

"Loose ...... Let go...... I'm Wang Ren......"

Wang Ren was about to run out of breath, but Xiao Lan still showed no signs of letting go of his hand, and it was very strange that when Xiao Lan grabbed his neck, he couldn't use any strength, and it felt as if all the spiritual power around him was blocked.

In Xiao Lan's body, Wang Ren clearly felt the existence of killing intent.

"What are you going to do!" Wang Ren asked desperately, but Xiao Lan never gave Wang Ren any response.

Finally, just when Wang Ren thought he was about to die, Xiao Lan suddenly threw Wang Ren to the ground and walked away alone.

Wang Ren, who was sitting on the ground, gasped heavily, in just a few seconds, he seemed to have been closed from the ghost gate, and Wang Ren had no doubt that Xiao Lan just now would really kill him.

Killing is a whim, and letting yourself go is just as a whim.

Wang Ren suddenly had this feeling.

......

At this time, the entire palace was in chaos, and Chu Qi took Li Xi and the two of them to rush to a certain place together.

"Lord Chu, can I ask you a question?" Li Shi said suddenly.

Chu Qi didn't speak, it seemed that he didn't want to answer Li Shi's question. But Li Xi didn't want to give up just like that.

"Although I will follow your arrangement, this is because I think you know something that everyone else does not know, but I hope you can at least tell us what the enemy's purpose is, and is their purpose really to destroy the imperial capital?

After a long time, Chu Qi replied, "I don't know too much about their purpose, but destroying the imperial capital must be one of their purposes. ”

Chu Qi's answer had no content, but it was also an answer that Li Xian couldn't refute. After all, the purpose of destroying the imperial capital alone was enough to make himself obey Chu Qi's arrangement.

About a quarter of an hour later, the two finally came to a large hall, the door of the main hall was closed, and Chu Qi directly held it with both hands, and a flame sword spread out from his palm, and then Chu Qi waved one hand, and at the same time that the flame sword slashed through the door, the wooden door burned directly, and after only two breaths, the wooden door was burned out.

Chu Qi took Li Xi into the main hall.

In the center of the main hall, a one-person-high giant tripod is placed, and all four feet of the giant tripod are locked with iron chains, and inside the giant tripod, there seems to be a person lying inside. Seeing this, Chu Qi hurriedly ran over, and when he got closer, he saw that this person was the commander of the Royal Forest Army, Gu Liang!

Chu Qi walked over, looked at Gu Liang in the giant ding, and then probed his neck with his hand, as well as his breath, but he passed out for unknown reasons, and his vital signs were very weak.

It should be the reason for this giant ding.

Chu Qi thought so, and then began to observe around this ding, and soon found the clue. If Chu Qi's expectations are good, this mouth Juding should be Dong Xin's handiwork.

When Dong Xin was with Dong Xin before, he had seen the sketch of this giant tripod drawn by Dong Xin, and Chu Qi also helped Dong Xin improve the details of the sketch at that time.

This giant tripod is used to imprison the flow speed of spiritual power in other people's bodies, after controlling the flow of spiritual power, the trapped person will be weak, and in serious cases, he will be unconscious, and after a long time, the spiritual power flow of the whole person will completely stop and the person will die.

But it has a fatal flaw, it has to sit in the giant dome unsuspectingly before it can be activated, otherwise it can't imprison anyone at all. Moreover, the layout of this giant tripod is more complicated, and Chu Qi once commented that it is flashy and unrealistic. But now such a giant tripod actually trapped Gu Liang, one of the most powerful people in the imperial capital?

Probably after that, Dong Xin changed this thing again. However, even if it is changed again, there will be no major changes in a few key places.

Chu Qi made several laps around the side of the giant tripod, and finally found the key to the giant tripod, and then quickly removed all the iron chains, and the ancient beams inside the giant tripod also reacted.

ps: I'm sorry, it's been two days...... Boo, I'll pay it back slowly
