Chapter 141: Dead Man
Three days later, the bones were buried in the prairie.
The Zhenbei Imperial Beast Hall is located on a mountain on the bone-buried grassland. Under the majestic and majestic Cangshan, there is a mysterious underground palace.
In an empty and solemn hall, there were faint red spiritual lamps suspended in the air, and the fire light emitted reflected the huge hall with a dim blood light.
In the center of the main hall, there is a magnificent golden round bed, shrouded in a thin curtain of green yarn. On the golden bed, between the soft brocade mattresses, lay a hideous, naked corpse.
An old man with unkempt white hair and a golden nightgown stood outside the gauze tent with his body bent, looking at the four black-robed warriors kneeling in front of him. Under his unkempt white hair, he wears a black bird mask, and his face and expression are invisible.
"Let's get out. The old man waved his withered hand and said in a hoarse voice, "Call Feiying." ”
The four black-robed warriors immediately stood up and respectfully retreated.
After they left, in the empty underground palace, in front of the old man, there was only a white coffin and a black sword box on the coffin.
He walked to the coffin, stretched out his hand and opened the sword box, and inside was a soul sword with peeling scales - the Yin Emperor! Then, he gently patted the coffin and sighed: "There is still the Yin Emperor, otherwise your soul will be gone." ”
About an hour later, Hong Feiying, who was wearing a red pointed hat, carried a brand-new puppet and jumped into the dungeon.
"Grandpa. Hong Feiying said crisply, with a cute smile on her little face.
"Huh. The white-haired old man let out a kind smile and said, "Haven't you been clamoring for your Senior Brother Feng to come back?"
"Senior Brother Feng is back?" said Hong Feiying in surprise.
"You'll be able to see him soon. The white-haired old man said.
"Hey, what's that?" Hong Feiying was suddenly attracted by a huge vessel in front of her.
I saw that near the south of the underground palace, there was a cylindrical transparent crystal container with a diameter of two zhang, and inside it was a turbid cyan liquid, which was gurgling and rising bubbles. Around the vessel, there were also pieces of charred, shriveled flesh and a white backbone.
Inside the liquid in the vessel, a corpse was soaked. It had only the white skeleton of the secluded forest, and a pitch-black heart beating on the chest of the skeleton. Strangely, its spine was swapped out and replaced with a sword with white scales.
Strands of black ghost silk threads derived from the liquid are quietly blending into the beating heart, and at the same time, blood vessels are derived from the black heart, which are constantly spreading and stretching, forming a network of skeletons and blood vessels. Next, it's time to grow muscle and skin.
"We've got a new member to our Blackbird family. The white-haired old man laughed.
"Who is the Blackbird family?" asked Hong Feiying.
"You'll know when you're older. The white-haired old man didn't elaborate, but said another thing, "Little girl, the Lion Awakening Kingdom sent a letter inviting you to their Imperial Beast Palace to cultivate, will you go?"
"Don't go!" Hong Feiying said decisively: "The little bald head is there, so I won't go!"
The Awakening Lion Country is one of the four empires of the Yuntian Continent, and there is also a son of a divine relic born there, the same age as Hong Feiying, is a boy named Yu Chiyan, also known as the Flame Little Phoenix. He and Hong Feiying are the twin phoenixes on the Yuntian Continent, and soon after they were born, they made a doll kiss. However, Zhenbei Kingdom was forced to accept it because of the pressure of the Awakening Lion Country, who was willing to give away a daughter of a divine relic to another country? Not only that, Hong Feiying was also very resistant to Yu Chiyan, and always called him a little bald head.
"There has to be a reason not to go, after all, they are a super empire, and we can't afford to provoke them. Saying that, the white-haired old man hesitated for a moment and said, "Otherwise, I will secretly send a letter to the Hengyang Empire, and you can go to their Imperial Beast Hall to practice." ”
"Why?"
"If, sue the royal family of the Lion Kingdom that Hengyang Kingdom invited you first, they won't embarrass us. The white-haired old man said, "After all, the strength of the Hengyang Kingdom is even greater than that of the Awakening Lion Country. ”
"Do you have to leave?" said Hong Feiying aggrievedly.
"Hengyang's Imperial Beast Palace, the scale is more than a thousand times larger than our Imperial Beast Palace. The white-haired old man said, "You don't have much to learn here. Only when you get to them can you learn the best beast taming techniques, and even the Cloud Sky Beast King has a collection. When you're done, come back. ”
"Oh well. Hong Feiying pouted and said, "Isn't it that if I become powerful, I don't have to marry a little bald head?"
"Huh. The white-haired old man smiled, stretched out his finger and pointed to the black bird mark on the mask on his face, and said, "When this mark is given to your body, there will be no one to embarrass you at that time." Except for the 'Grim Reaper', we don't have to listen to anyone. ”
............
A month later.
A light drizzle was falling. Ten thousand trees are green, and peach blossoms are blooming.
To the east of Zhenbeiguo, in an ordinary small mountain town, there is a simple small restaurant. A simple shopkeeper stood at the counter counting old copper coins, and a young man who was a miscellaneous man looked boredly at the drizzle outside, and yawned a big yawn from time to time. In the small restaurant, three or two guests were talking, laughing, drinking and eating meat.
The bistro has two floors, and the upper floor is a windy shed with only one table of guests.
An old peach tree in front of the small restaurant, the peach blossoms that are withering in the drizzle, Xiao Bian is standing quietly in front of the peach tree, stretching out his head and eating the peach blossoms with relish. Ye Qingcheng and Fu Shan sat upstairs, blowing a moist breeze, leaving the sparsely populated street below. One-Eye was lying next to them, sleeping, and was sitting on One-Eye, nodding his head and dozing off from the fire.
The slightly drunk Fu Shan took the wine glass, pointed to the southeast direction, and said, "If you travel seven thousand miles eastward, you will reach Hengyang Kingdom." ”
"It's going to take another month. Ye Qingcheng said expectantly: "Is there a ranking of the four empires, which country is the most powerful?"
"It's hard to say. Fuyama said: "Every empire has its own characteristics. Like the Seven Star Country, it is the largest empire in terms of land area, and the Hengyang Country is the richest country, and the military strength of the Lion Awakening Country should be strong. If there is a ranking, it should be the Hengyang Kingdom, it is too rich, and it alone controls half of the wealth lifeline on the Yuntian Continent. ”
"Their Imperial Beast Hall should also be very powerful, right?" Ye Qingcheng asked.
"That's!" Fu Shan said with a fluttering eyebrow: "The Hengyang Imperial Beast Palace, it is the oldest palace in the entire Cloud Heaven Continent! The Great Cloud Beast King, more than a thousand years ago, served as the head there, and left it, and now it is the treasure of the town hall there. Not only that, but I heard that the member of the Yun Clan's legion, Hades King Qing Yu, also serves as their honorary head!"
"What a powerful background!" Ye Qingcheng said in shock.
"Hooking up with the Yun Clan, can it not be powerful?" Fu Shan said: "Like some elite apprentices of their Imperial Beast Palace, they can directly challenge us as the hall masters of the Little Imperial Beast Palace, I don't have that talent." However, when we arrive at the new hall of the teacher, we will focus on cultivating you, and if you are angry, we will escort you in and touch the light of the strongest hall, haha!"
"Hey, hey. Ye Qingcheng said in high spirits: "I don't care if I can go in, my master is also a very powerful beast tamer, I hope I can learn his essence of animal taming, and go there to challenge it with Lihuo." ”
"It's not big, but it's not small. Fu Shan smiled: "However, you must be frivolous when you are young, otherwise at my age, many things will not dare to think." ”
On the ground, Ye Qingcheng's gaze stayed at a certain position on the street, frozen and unmoving, as if he had been nailed down, and a chill suddenly appeared on his back.
In the distance, on the drizzly street, a tall man, holding a yellow oil-paper umbrella, walked calmly. In front of him was a little girl with a red pointed hat and no blackbird flying mark - Hong Feiying.
Hong Feiying jumped in front of him, holding a string of sugar gourds in her hand, happily stepping on the small puddles on the street.
"Hong Feiying, why did she appear here?" Fu Shan muttered curiously, then turned his head to look at Ye Qingcheng, and found that he was already pale, and said, "What's wrong?"
"I saw a dead man!" Ye Qingcheng said. At this moment, it was as if he was trapped in an ice cellar, and his voice trembled.
At this time, the black-robed man holding the umbrella stopped, lifted the umbrella, looked up at the small restaurant, and looked at Ye Qingcheng quietly. With a cold demeanor, a handsome face, long snowy hair, and a proud posture, there is no doubt that he is Yu Feng.
However, in Ye Qingcheng's mind, a hideous corpse that had been charred and blackened by the thunder fire appeared.
