Chapter 63: "A Bunch of Snake Spirits"
Chapter 63 "A Bunch of Snake Spirits"
"The people of the Great Qin Empire are all insane. Shangguan Ziyang has now confirmed what he thinks very much. Can you speak well? What you say is all that makes people feel that they are in a fog and deliberately make others not understand, so as to appear that you are very profound? Please, what you say is so that others can't understand it, how can you communicate with others?
Ximen Chun finally put the little white tiger down when he took Shangguan Ziyang and the others to the hotel that was chartered by the Qin people, probably because he had to maintain etiquette in front of the elders he was about to meet. As soon as the little white tiger broke away from Ximen Chun's clutches, he immediately shrank at Shangguan Ziyang's feet, and stared at Ximen Chun vigilantly with a pair of big eyes, as if Ximen Chun would pounce in the next second.
Ximen Chun led everyone to the third floor of the hotel, although everyone was scrutinized by many people when they passed through the lobby on the first floor - after all, Patrick's height of more than 3 meters was difficult not to attract attention.
Ximen Chun came to the door of a room, the two servants at the door saw Ximen Chun, and immediately turned around to open the door, Ximen Chun also made a "please" gesture in front, and after everyone entered the room, he entered the room again, and the servants at the door also closed the door after Ximen Chun entered.
What appeared in front of Shangguan Ziyang was a room about half a football field and more than ten meters high, and there were four elders and several young people on the ground, but these people were all placed on a small coffee table in front of them, and then knelt behind the coffee table, looking like a widow.
Sitting at the top was an old man who looked about seventy years old, with white hair, but his body seemed to be as strong as a young man, not as shriveled as an ordinary old man, and there were two bones on the top of his head that looked like antlers. And the old man's costume is also very elegant, cyan as the main color, white as the secondary color, similar to the ancient Chinese Chinese costume complex costumes, by the old man like Dali his hair meticulously cared for, next to him is a young man with the same clothes as him, and the head is also similar to the horn of the old man, but compared to the old man, it is like a pocket model. Seeing that Shangguan Ziyang was observing him, the old man was also observing Shangguan Ziyang.
"Presumably, this should be the youngest daughter of the Shangguan family, it is indeed the bloodline of the Shangguan family, but why is it blond hair and golden eyes? And he became a mercenary captain at a young age, he is really a hero! The old man said something inexplicable, and waved his hand to invite everyone to take a seat.
It is really inexplicable that he has become a "hero"? And this old man casually glanced at himself and concluded that he was a member of the Shangguan family, how did he conclude that? It seems that the people of the Great Qin Empire have this magical ability, and this must be found a chance to find out.
"Jun'er, you said that you were defeated by the subordinates of this mercenary group, I don't know which young Junjie it is?"
The man who spoke was a man who looked to be about fifty or sixty years old, with black hair mixed with white hair, and two cute "cat ears" on his head, and black and white hair, but how funny it looked on the head of such an old man. Like the old man sitting at the top, his hair was meticulously groomed in the style of a bun from the Qin and Han dynasties in ancient China, and he was wearing a gorgeous dress similar to that of the old man sitting at the top, but the color was black and white. Judging from the fact that he and Ximen Chun have the same appearance characteristics, this should be the "White Tiger Clan, Ximen Family", and the little White Tiger who hid next to Shangguan Ziyang and stared at Ximen Chun trembling.
Hearing the elder's question, Ximen Chun immediately responded, "Back to my father's words, it is this young handsome man named Ike, whose speed is beyond the reach of the younger generation." ”
With Ximen Chun's pointing, the old man smiled and looked at the werewolf Ike who had just sat down, no matter how he tried, Ike was never used to that meticulous kneeling posture - even if there was a soft cushion on the coffee table. In the end, I couldn't help but sit cross-legged like Patrick.
After answering the question, Ximen Chun knelt down behind a coffee table on the right hand side of the old man, and on the left hand side of the Ximen patriarch, there was also a young man in the same costume as Ximen Chun. It is said that several elders present were accompanied by young people in similar costumes to them, and the most surprising thing was that the graceful and luxurious lady in the fiery red palace dress was accompanied by two young ladies in the same fiery red palace costume.
"It turned out that it was Your Excellency the Werewolf, who was able to defeat my son on the stage, please give Your Excellency a glass of Old Man Rong, but now before the food is served, the Old Man will replace the wine with tea. After saying that, the old man of the Simon family drank all the tea.
Seeing this, Ike couldn't excuse himself, so he also followed the example of the old man of the Simon family and took a drink of the teacup on the coffee table to show his respect.
"This mercenary group of yours is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, if this palace is not mistaken, this should be the strongest person of the younger generation of the Fujiwara family in Nanzhao, Fujiwara Kenjiro, right?"
The speaker was a graceful and luxurious woman who looked about 30 years old, and her fiery red straight hair was draped down to her hips like a waterfall, and it was neatly trimmed. Her figure is convex and backwards, and even the wide fiery red palace dress on her body can't hide her mature curvy figure. A pair of fiery red eyes looked at Kenji, who was drinking tea in a low-key manner in the crowd, and asked softly.
"Elder Nangong, you have recognized the wrong person, in Shimosaito Kenji, not Fujiwara Kenjiro, although he is also from the Nanzhao Fujiwara family, but compared to Fujiwara Kenichiro, it is far inferior. Kenji said to the Nangong Elder of the Suzaku clan.
"I see, it seems that this palace has recognized the wrong person, I'm really sorry, this palace is here to compensate your Excellency. Saying that, this Nangong elder also gave Xianzhi a salute.
"Elder Nangong, you are so tormenting the juniors, you don't dare to take it as a gift. Kenji then couldn't afford to do it.
Listening to the abnormal breathing sound of Gu Xin under the cloak next to him as if he was holding back a smile, Shangguan Ziyang knew that this guy Kenji was talking nonsense with his eyes open, if Shangguan Ziyang guessed correctly, the so-called "Fujiwara Kenjiro", "Fujiwara Kenji" and "Saito Kenji" are all the same person.
However, at this time, Shangguan Ziyang immediately felt a feeling of being targeted by a poisonous snake, but this feeling only lasted for a moment before disappearing, Shangguan Ziyang immediately looked at the source of this gaze, but unexpectedly, Gu Xin, who was originally shrouded in a cloak and sitting in a precarious position, also turned his gaze to the location of that unexplained feeling with Shangguan Ziyang.
What appeared in Shangguan Ziyang's eyes was the last elder in the entire hall.
The dark green, snake-like vertical line shape, the pupils of the eyes shot out of the seeping cold gaze, crossed Shangguan Ziyang, and stared directly at Gu Xin next to Shangguan Ziyang. Because these eyes were so weird, Shangguan Ziyang completely ignored this man who looked about 40 years old, with dark skin - it was almost the complexion of a black African, but his face was a typical Oriental face, and his hair was also straight, and he was directly draped over his shoulders like the elder of the Nangong family, but the length of his hair only ended below his shoulders. He was wearing a luxurious dress similar to the previous two elders, but the color was black as the main color and dark green as the secondary color. There was also a young man sitting next to him who was about the same decoration as him, and judging from the size alone, this group of three people in black robes was the strongest of all the Qin people in the hall. It's just that this old black man was drinking tea for a while, and the cold gaze in his green pupils that were similar to snakes kept staring at Gu Xin, who was completely shrouded in cloak and kept a low profile.
Gu Xin saw that this elder had been staring at him, so he arched his hand to this elder, "Dare to ask the Northern Tang Dynasty seniors of the Xuanwu clan who have been staring at the kid, why? Could it be that the kid has done something wrong?" Gu Xin didn't even disguise his voice, which surprised Shangguan Ziyang.
"No, no, no, I just feel that you also have the breath of 'god' on you......" The Northern Tang senior, who was black like a briquette, spoke slowly, and immediately focused the attention of the audience on Gu Xin, who was covered by the cloak, and even Alice, who had been eating snacks on the table, was attracted to it, and the scumbags of the snacks on her lips didn't have time to deal with it, so she looked at Gu Xin suspiciously.
However, Shangguan Ziyang noticed that there was a "also" in the words of this black briquette, why did he bring "also"?
"I'm sorry, I didn't introduce myself before, now please allow me to introduce myself, the younger generation's surname is Xin, the word is Xianshi, from Daqin Xianyang, it's just that the elder said that you felt the so-called 'god' breath in the younger generation, maybe the ancestors of the younger generation have a blood relationship with the royal family......" Gu Xin replied neither humble nor arrogant, but Shangguan Ziyang never knew that this guy still had a "word", but he shouldn't have the surname "Gu", right...... Although Shangguan Ziyang and the others have always called him "Gu Xin" directly, "Gu" is definitely not his surname, because he didn't say that when he introduced himself and the others when he first met him, at that time, it was still in the westernmost part of the Dark Moon Empire, and the small village bordering the Demon Beast Mountain Range, where did Alice also meet. It's just that what his surname is is about me, and it doesn't matter what his surname is, it's all called "Gu Xin".
"It turns out that it is the younger generation of the ancient and new ancient masters," said the old man sitting at the top, "Then it is understandable." ”
???Shangguan Ziyang's heart was full of 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping by, looking at the gaze of several other elders looking at this Dongfang Elder, and the Dongfang Elder nodded affirmatively, so they all had a "I see" expression. But fortunately, the young people who sat with them also looked dazed, and they knew that these guys must be pretending to be unfathomable.
Elder Dongfang waved his hand, "Since all the guests have arrived, let's serve the food!"
So the wide door of the room opened, and a group of servants entered the room in a neat manner, removed the original refreshments from the coffee table, and served the main meal.
However, Shangguan Ziyang was not satisfied with the meal sharing system of kneeling and sitting like this, especially there were tables and chairs to sit on, but he wanted to kneel with his legs together like this, looking at Gu Xin and Kenji's posture of sitting upright, Shangguan Ziyang wanted to sit cross-legged like Patrick and Ike more boldly. But on the way here, Gu Xin had warned him, no matter what the others were, Shangguan Ziyang, as the head of the regiment, must maintain the most basic etiquette.
However, Alice and Aamiri looked at Koshin and Kenji and sat on their knees, but when the main course came up, Amirie was fine, and Alice directly became as virtuous as Patrick. It wasn't until now that Shangguan Ziyang found out that Alice still had foodie attributes, why didn't he find out before? Could it be that the food was too bad? But looking at the two siblings Blue and Ellath trying to maintain their posture, Shangguan Ziyang sighed, stretched out his hand and brought a plate of dishes that looked like braised fish on the coffee table to the little white tiger who was lying next to him and drooling at the coffee table, and then looked at the Blue brothers and sisters, it seems that the coffee table is still too short for orcs.
Seeing that the little white tiger was fighting with this "braised fish", Shangguan Ziyang casually took a bite to eat, but the voice of Elder Ximen came from his ears.
"Commander Shangguan, Your Excellency's Demon Pet is really a descendant of the White Tiger Clan? Dare to ask Your Excellency where you met it? Don't hide it from Your Excellency, this descendant of the White Tiger is a branch of the ancient bloodline, I thought it had disappeared into history, but I didn't expect to see it again. "Ximen's predecessor smiled and looked very kind, "That day, my son brought back the descendants of the White Tiger clan who had not yet transformed, and the old man was very surprised, I heard that it was obtained from a junior of the Shangguan family called 'Shangguan Ziyang', at that time the old man also went to the Shangguan family to ask, but I didn't expect that the Shangguan family only had a male baby of the 'purple' generation in the team of the Shangguan family, and only a female baby of the 'purple' generation of the Shangguan family in the team of the Oriental Academy, but that was also called' Shangguan Ziyan', I thought it was my son who misheard the name, but after seeing the real person, I found that it was not...... So...... Can you share this trip? After all, they are all Qin people...... Hehe. ”
"Speaking of which......" The Dongfang senior who was sitting at the top suddenly patted his head and said, "The Great Elder of our clan took our clan to worship 'Shen Feng' a few months ago and went out to carry out the secret order of today's saint, it is said that on the way to carry out the execution, he met a descendant of the Shangguan family who possessed the breath of a 'god', and brought a descendant of the cursed White Tiger clan as a demon pet, don't tell me, this 'descendant of the Shangguan family with the breath of God' and 'descendant of the cursed White Tiger clan' refers to you??"
Shangguan Ziyang smiled bitterly and arched his hand towards the two elders, "Don't hide it from the two seniors, if the 'Shen Feng' in your mouth is the huge bird that can cover the sky and the sun with its wings spread, then the protagonist you are talking about should be the juniors." ”
Dongfang Senior gasped, "Do you know where I am talking about?"
"Of course the junior knows, that is the central area of the Demon Beast Mountain Range. Shangguan Ziyang smiled bitterly and arched his hand.
Shangguan Ziyang obviously felt that the young people present looked at him with complicated eyes, including reverence, suspicion, and even disdain.
"Do you know that even if it is the Qinglong Clan, the first family of the Great Qin Empire, if it were not for Shen Feng, it would not have been possible to enter the inner perimeter of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, how could you actually meet the elders of the Qinglong Clan there alive?" Nangong Senior looked at Shangguan Ziyang who was smiling bitterly, and his tone was full of suspicion.
"I know that you may not believe it when you say it, but the younger generation was born in Shengding Mari City, the capital of the Gama Empire, but there was a concentrated change, the whole family was wanted by the Gama Empire, and had to cross the Warcraft Mountain Range to the Dark Moon Empire, the original purpose was to return to the Shangguan family of the Great Qin Empire alone, but I met so many friends during the journey, the younger generation thought, maybe I can take the opportunity to travel to this continent? After all, the Great Qin Empire is there, and the Shangguan family is also there, when will I not go back? Ever since I met the little guy, I saw the 'Divine Mansion'......" Shangguan Ziyang was originally talking well, but when he said "Divine Mansion", he was suddenly interrupted by a voice that shouted in unison.
"Wait@!!"
Several elders and Gu Xin beside him suddenly interrupted Shangguan Ziyang's narration.
Suddenly, there was a deathly silence in the audience, which scared Alice and Patrick into not eating.
"If the old man heard correctly, you said the 'Divine Mansion' just now??? In the end, it was Elder Dongfang who spoke first, "Are you sure that it is the incomparable 'Divine Mansion'?" Elder Dongfang's tone trembled a little, but he still couldn't help but keep calm, but it didn't seem to be of any use.
"What the younger generation encountered was a city in the sky with a golden light about 30 kilometers in diameter and about 45 kilometers up and down, and it did indeed have its own sign of 'Shenfu'...... And the little guy's clan, according to its own words, was originally the White Tiger clan that had been guarding the 'Divine Mansion', but this clan was left with only one ...... in its generation" Shangguan Ziyang cautiously touched the little white tiger who was still competing with the roasted fish and replied, because the gaze of these Qin people was too terrifying, as if they would be torn apart if they said the wrong thing, "And there is a huge iron curtain at the edge of the city, which seems to be able to wrap the city tightly at any time...... And this Iron Curtain is an Iron Curtain from the outside, and from the inside, it is the starry sky......"
"Where is the 'Divine Mansion' now?Can it be moved??" The smile on the face of the Ximen senior, who was originally smiling, disappeared, and he asked Shangguan Ziyang viciously.
"At that time, the phantom who called himself 'God' encountered in the 'Divine Mansion' told the younger generation that this city in the sky could only be activated again, and it couldn't fly far, and the last thing the younger generation saw was that the Divine Mansion had crashed into Dunkehui City, the southern province of the Gama Empire......"
"The Gama Empire??How can this work??" Nangong's predecessor also looked very uneasy.
"Don't worry, now that we know that the Divine Mansion has been born, since it can't be used now, then no one else should be able to activate it except for the current Holy One...... Speaking of the group, how did you start at that time, Captain?" Gu Xin on the side said.
"How do I know? I didn't start it, I won't ......manipulate it if it starts it on its own," Shangguan Ziyang said with a slanted look at Gu Xin, of course he didn't need to be polite to Gu Xin.
"But it's true, people who don't have the qualifications can't start, and we're still too worried. However, now that the Divine Mansion has appeared, then the matter should be on the agenda. The cold Beitang senior, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
The other 3 seniors looked "deeply convinced" and nodded in agreement.
(Nani?, where did you come from??, what the hell are you talking about, I don't understand it at all??)
"But there has been no news from the last team yet, it's been several months, I don't know if it's a failure?" Elder Ximen said with a smile on his face again.
"Who knows, but there is no news from the Holy Shrine today, and the old man doesn't know what the situation is. The Dongfang Elder who was sitting at the top stroked his beard and said. It seems that he has completely forgotten that there are outsiders present, and they are all talking to themselves that others can't understand at all.
(What the hell are you talking about, can anyone explain it???)
"But look at this little lady of the Shangguan family, she is not like my Daqin person, with blonde hair and golden eyes...... Oh yes, you were born in the Gama Empire, you should be mixed-blood, but Shangguan Little Lady, since you were born in the Gama Empire, and you have the direct bloodline of the Shangguan family, and at the same time you are wanted by the Gama Empire, and you also met the descendants of the Shenfu and the White Tiger Clan, crossed the Warcraft Mountain Range, and now the mercenary group under your command is the Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger, and it looks like the little lady of the Shangguan family who is only more than ten years old, your experience is really strange, can you share it with us? Nangong Senior turned his gaze to Shangguan Ziyang, and his fiery red eyes seemed to be full of anticipation.
Hearing the words of the Nangong elders, the other three elders also stopped discussing and focused their eyes on Shangguan Ziyang, as if they were waiting for Shangguan Ziyang's words.
But it's really uncomfortable to be called a "little lady" in my heart - although I do look like a little Lori from the outside, but we have a pure heart, being called a "little lady" is really unbearable, can't you call me by my name directly? Do you have to call it like this to show that you are very cultivated? It doesn't seem to be anything wrong to say, but it just feels weird, no, absolutely not.
So after Shangguan Ziyang saw that the little white tiger swept away a whole roast fish, he did not hesitate to bring the roast chicken on the coffee table to the little white tiger lying on the ground, and tried to pretend to have an expression of "the past is unbearable", "This matter is a long story, and the past is not to mention!"
"I see, since the little lady of the Shangguan family doesn't want to mention the sad thing, it's also the palace's fault, come, in order to apologize, the palace toasts you!" said Elder Nangong picked up the wine glass on the coffee table and toasted Shangguan Ziyang.
The younger generation was terrified and did not dare to take this gift. Shangguan Ziyang also picked up the small wine glass on the coffee table, seeing that there was not much wine, it should not have much impact on him, so he took a sip, and suddenly felt the world spinning and dizzy.
(Damn, this is...... Poison ??????) Shangguan Ziyang seemed to faintly hear "Your group leader" a second before he fell on the coffee table...... No...... You're drunk, aren't you?"
