Chapter 102: Southern Witchcraft
In winter, it always darkens early, and when the palace bells ring, it is forbidden to move around the palace at will. In the palace, only patrolling forbidden troops can be seen everywhere, and the occasional imperial physician with a lantern hurriedly walks along the palace paths.
Wu Hua had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and he led people to patrol to Qiongyuan, and the lights in Qiongyuan were dim. At night, the emperor's personal guards also lived in Qiongyuan, next door to the falling snow. The gate of the Qiongyuan was closed, but fortunately there were a few small circular holes on one side of the courtyard wall, and Wu Hua ordered people to go forward, and he lied and walked to the side of the garden.
He took out the snake cup, muttered to his mouth, and then opened the box with a solemn expression. During the night, he did not see the contents of the box, and he poured out the contents of the box. After a while, he heard the sound of "fine pieces", which was the sound of the snake spitting apricots as it crawled, and Wu Hua himself couldn't help but shudder.
He walked away quickly, then followed the patrol to the other end.
The snow has been restless for the past few days, and I haven't slept very well, and I haven't slept very well because of the occasional pain from my back injury. At this moment she was leaning against the head of the bed with a book, and the lamp on the candlestick in the room illuminated the whole room, and the light in the hall had been extinguished. Kerr no longer lived in the same room with her, and she found it pleasant to read a book on a quiet winter night, when she smelled a disgusting fishy smell.
Luoxue twitched her eyebrows, got up, put on her shoes, and walked out of the hall with a candlestick, through which she could faintly see something swimming outside.
"Someone!" Luo Xue shouted, and the sound of falling snow alarmed the nearby forbidden army and the emperor's personal guards, who pushed open the door and lit all the lights outside the house.
One of them looked up to the ground with a lamp, and his face turned pale with astonishment when he saw dozens of black-covered poisonous snakes swimming in the garden. He slashed at the poisonous snake on the ground with a knife in one hand, one snake was cut in two, but the other snake jumped up and bit him on the thigh.
This person was bitten by a poisonous snake, and his whole face turned blue and then foamed at the mouth to the end, and the emperor's personal guards also changed their faces when they saw it.
"Don't go out, mother, there are many poisonous snakes outside!" someone shouted outside.
Hearing the man's words, Luo Xue's body trembled, snakes should be hibernating in this winter, and the environment with many people in this palace is not suitable for the survival of snakes. What's going on with these poisonous snakes that suddenly appeared, this is what makes Luoxue really care about at the moment, she has been afraid of snakes and hates snakes since she was a child.
She couldn't help but retreat to the wing, there was already a mess outside, and the snow could see the busy figure outside. Also, the guard who fell down after being bitten by a snake, this situation made Luoxue's scalp numb, and his whole body had goosebumps.
Falling Snow's eyes were staring at the door of the hall, and there was the shadow of a snake outside the hall, and Falling Snow was terrified. She was afraid that the snakes would get into the house, and once she was in she didn't know what to do, when she heard a few crisp and sharp bird calls from the roof.
It was the voice of the white phoenix, and Luo Xue was startled, and through the window lattice, several white phoenixes could be seen swooping down from the sky. Falling Snow can only see the shadow outside, and can't see the scene of the fight, but through the silhouette, you can also know that those snakes were torn into several pieces by the white phoenix.
The forbidden army and the emperor's personal guards outside the door all widened their eyes when they saw this scene, and the poisonous snakes on the ground bit the three people to death, but they were torn into several pieces by these white birds. The poisonous snakes were powerless in the face of these birds, and they were all killed in a short time, and they searched the garden several times but did not see a shadow of the live snake.
When everything was safe and someone was banging on the door, Falling Snow walked up and pulled the deadbolt to open the hall. The lights outside Qiongyuan were bright, and the falling snow saw the corpses of many poisonous snakes lying on the ground, and this scene made her extremely disgusted.
Wan'er came up to help her, looking at the corpse of the snake on the ground, and her stomach was tumbling into the sea.
That Wu Hua naturally knew what was happening in Qiongyuan for a long time, and as soon as he heard these voices, he sneered alone in the dark night. He was in charge of patrolling the area, and he immediately led people to turn around and rush into the Qiongyuan, and when he saw that the falling snow was still standing there, he was a little disappointed.
Seeing that Wu Hua rushed into Qiongyuan with someone, Luo Xue frowned, why did this person appear here?
"What happened, what happened to the dead man on the ground?" Wu Hua asked as he pretended not to know, his face full of indignation.
The emperor's personal guards get along with Luoxue day and night, and have a lot of respect for this woman, and after these few things, they have treated her as a master. This Wu Hua is the one who patrols this area, and there are so many poisonous snakes drilled out of Qiongyuan for no reason, and the people who patrol his night are irresponsible and come to ask the people in Qiongyuan.
A personal guard sneered twice, and walked towards Wu Hua with his hands on his hips, he was the emperor's personal guard, and he was only loyal to the emperor, but no matter what the identity of this Wu Hua was.
The pro-guard raised his eyebrows, and said coldly: "You don't know about this matter, but you asked about our people from Qiongyuan, Master Wu is very capable." ”
"There's a difference between our night watch and our vigil, and that's why I just passed by here and heard the sound. Wu Hua quibbled.
The emperor's personal guards no longer paid attention to Wu Hua, he half-squatted on the ground and looked at the poisonous snake that appeared on the ground, this kind of poisonous snake was not found in the Qi country. The snake is more than a meter long, with a triangular head and a white spot on its head. The man pulled out a short sword from his waist and plunged it into the snake's head, but strange things happened.
The snake turned into a puddle of black water, and he was shocked that the snake was gone, and it became black water.
Luoxue naturally saw this scene too, and she stepped forward and looked at the black water on the ground in a daze.
"Southern witchcraft, this is a kind of voodoo to poison snakes!" the guard glanced at the falling snow, and his face was extremely ugly, because this kind of black witchcraft was forbidden.
"You say it's witchcraft, but how can these things appear in the court, so there are southern wizards in the court?"
"Definitely, it's okay if the wizard isn't in the palace, the wizard of the southern country is very mysterious, and I don't really understand it. "Defend the road.
"Go and tell the king that the wizard of the Southern Kingdom has entered the territory of the Qi Kingdom. Another guard said, and one of them heard that his body floated out of Qiongyuan, and Qiongyuan became lively again.
These sorcerers must have come for themselves, and Luoxue didn't understand how that someone in the Qi country wanted to die by himself. The people of Yunshang also want to die, and now there are more Southern Wizards, and everything is aimed at them. Luo Xue asked herself in her heart, Su Luoxue, what did you do wrong?
All the snakes on the ground had turned into black water, and the guard himself came to clean the garden, for he was afraid that the black water was still poisonous. King Qi ordered a few of them to protect this woman, and it seems that the strength behind him is really strong, and he actually invited such a terrifying person as a sorcerer from the southern country.
If you don't find this wizard as soon as possible, I'm afraid there will be many unexpected things happening in Qiongyuan, which is a matter that deserves the attention of the entire Qi court.
The southern country and the Qi country are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and it is not easy to reach the southern country, if there are really a few wizards in the Qi country, it will be a terrifying thing. If you don't catch it as soon as possible, it will be a great disaster in the future, and his expression became more and more solemn.
