readx;? The four of them talked around the campfire for a long time, and before they knew it, it was the middle of the night. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the dark clouds cover the moon, the night breeze is light, and the happiness is indescribable. Among the four people, Mu Sang spoke the most, his words were funny, and he was full of pride and ambition, which made Gu Heng can't help but admire, that Aoki Fairy didn't talk much, but he listened very carefully on the side, Yan Mo listened with a smile and interjected a few words from time to time.
Seeing that the night was dark, several people were burning by the bonfire, and they fell asleep, Mu Sang saw that Gu Heng had no clothes on his body, and his figure was similar to him, so the red light flashed in his hand, and several pieces of clothing appeared in his hand.
Gu Heng looked at it strangely, and when he took the clothes, he couldn't help asking, "Where did this clothes come from?"
Mu Sang stretched out his right hand, and saw a dark blue ring on his middle finger, and the ring flashed blue. It was very good-looking, and Mu Sang smiled: "This is a sealing technique, and my things are all in this little ring." ”
Gu Hengxin said: "This sealing technique is quite similar to that of the Lie Bi Slash Hero, but the object he sealed, and the Lie Bi Slash Daxia sealed is the dragon breath of my pendant." ”
Gu Heng changed his clothes, and the whole person became quite handsome, if it weren't for the messy hair and the disabled right foot, I don't know how many people would mistake him for the noble son of which family he would have when he walked into the city.
Early the next morning, the five of them cleaned up a little, and then set off towards Yehui City with the chirping of frightened birds.
In the morning light, the city of Luminous Light was shrouded in a thin mist, and the morning sun was fiery red, like a fairyland.
The frightened birds glide leisurely in front of the five people, and the birdsong is graceful, adding a touch of interest to this scene.
When the five of them came to the city gate, they wanted to enter the city immediately, but they found that the gate was still closed at the moment, and there were no guards around, which made it particularly deserted.
Fairy Aoki vacated above the city gate and looked around, and said on the ground, "There is no one on this city wall either,"
Yan Mo listened, picked up a stone and threw it into the sky above Yehui City, the stone flew over the wall, and immediately it was like hitting a barrier, and it was bounced back after a muffled sound, and there were slight red ripples on the city wall.
"It seems that the seal of the city has not been broken, but what about the people guarding the city?" Yan Mo was looking up in confusion, and at this moment, more than a dozen figures suddenly rushed up the wall, and one of them shouted loudly: "Who is here?"
When the five of them heard the voice, they saw that the dozen or so people were all dressed in uniform and equipped with long swords, and they were the guards of Radiant City.
Aoki Fairy flicked her right hand, a gold token appeared in her hand, the token came out, the golden light shone, and a golden blue character suddenly appeared in the air, the dozen people saw it, looked panicked, hurriedly opened the city gate, a guard chief greeted the door, hugged his fist and said: "It turned out to be Aoki Fairy, we have been waiting here for a long time." ”
Fairy Aoki said coldly: "How long have you been waiting, why is there no one guarding the city?"
The captain of the guard replied, "Nightglow City is not allowed to enter the city from night to early morning, so the few of us are only stationed here during this period, and we do not go out to patrol. ”
Aoki Fairy took back the token, turned back and said, "Let's go in." The chief guard hurriedly got out of the way, and the five of them walked towards the City Lord's Mansion of Nightglow City under the leadership of the guard. When the frightened feather bird came, it had already been sealed with the seal of the sealing technique, so it was not afraid of the seal of Nightglow City and flew into the city before the five people.
"What's going on in the city now?" asked Aoki Fairy to the captain of the guard.
The chief guard returned with a bitter face: "Since the assassination of the city lord, the guards and people in the city have been in fear all day long, and now Yehui City is heavily guarded, the city lord's mansion is guarded day and night, and the army patrols the streets day and night, and the people dare not go out at night except during the day, for fear of encountering murderers. ”
Gu Heng listened and looked around curiously, the last time he entered the city was four years ago, and everything in the civilized world was still very fresh. I saw that the avenue was deserted in the early morning, the door was closed, and there was no one except the guards.
"I heard that the assassination of the city lord this time is related to the ancient clan Boring Xu, in this case, why did the entire city be so panicked. Yan Mo couldn't help asking, according to what he thought, if there was only one assassin, then he should have already left, why did everyone in this city put themselves in danger?
The captain of the guard replied: "It would not have been like this, the assassination of the city lord on that day actually didn't even know about us, but just a few days, the news of the assassination of the city lord somehow spread out, for a time the city was full of wind and rain, there were rumors that the city lord was killed by the demon clan, these demon clans are still in the city, ready to attack the human race at any time, it happened that there were several murders at that time, the body was torn by wild dogs, so this rumor spread more and more, everyone did not dare to go out casually, in order to maintain order and appease the people, we were sent to monitor at all times." ”
Yan Mo nodded, and couldn't help but sigh at the power of this rumor in his heart.
The five of them crossed the avenue and turned right to see a gorgeous building, which was the castle lord's mansion. At this moment, the outside of the City Lord's Mansion was surrounded by guards, and there were several huge beasts walking back and forth, these beasts were strangely shaped, different in height, or hovering or pacing, indescribably majestic.
The five people approached, and there was a sudden noise in the city lord's mansion, and the group hurriedly walked out of the city lord's mansion, and a middle-aged man flashed in front of the five people, clasped his fists and bent down and said: "Aoki Fairy, down is the city lord's mansion head Donggu, who has been waiting for a few days, and now I have my temporary representative for the affairs inside and outside Yehui City." ”
Fairy Aoki nodded and said, "Then there are some things that will trouble you in the future." ”
Donggu smiled: "This is what should be done in the next place. He straightened up, looked at Yan Mo and a few people, and said after seeing a few people: "Presumably, these are Young Master Musang, Deacon Yan Mo and Young Master Ning Ji, then this is... ”
Donggu saw that Gu Heng was wearing a cloak, although he was gorgeously dressed, but his behavior was quite restrained, not like he was with Aoki Fairy, and he only said that there would be four people coming before, but now there is one more, and he was a little puzzled.
Mu Sang smiled: "This person we met outside the city, named Gu Heng, don't look at him like this, but he is very powerful, he walked with us because of something, the manager doesn't have to worry." ”
Na Donggu obviously won't give up his vigilance easily, there was a slight hesitation in his eyes, but he still smiled: "Now that there are many crises inside and outside the city, I think it's better not to let outsiders in and out at will, but since it is a person that Aoki Fairy believes, it is not easy to refuse." There was some resistance in his words, but Fairy Aoki only said that this Donggu acted rigorously, so he nodded back: "The chief will lead the way." ”
Nadong Gu replied: "I have already prepared rooms for a few people, and as for Gu Heng's room, I will have someone prepare it immediately." ”
Gu Heng heard the suspicion of himself in Donggu's words, and his heart was a little clogged, and he said that he still had to go to find Mu Wanling and his mother, and he only needed to get the portrait, so why should he stay any longer? ”
Mu Sang heard this, and said strangely: "Don't you still want to go to the Gu Clan with us, and don't live in the City Lord's Mansion, so where do you live?"
Gu Heng shook his head and said: "I just need to get the portrait, if there is no news of Mu Wanling and Niang in the city, I will not stay in this city, and you should stay for a long time after listening to you, I'm afraid I can't wait." ”
When Fairy Aoki saw him like this, he said, "Then you follow me into the City Lord's Mansion, and I will paint for you later." ”
Gu Heng nodded, and the five of them entered the City Lord's Mansion under the leadership of Dong Gu, except for Gu Heng, the other four people all came to their own premises to clean up, and Gu Heng sat in the hall and waited for a few people.
This hall is quite gorgeous, Gu Heng looked around curiously, a few guards at the door first saw Gu Heng's left foot disabled, and then saw Gu Heng looking at this council hall like a dirt bun, and said with a smile: "What kind of person is this, how can he come with Aoki Fairy, the whole is a wild boy." ”
"Look at his stupidity, I really don't see anything special. ”
Several people outside the door were talking, Gu Heng was very strange, why were people talking everywhere he went, so he came to the door and asked puzzledly: "Is there anything strange about me?"
Those few people hurriedly stopped talking, one of them coughed, and said: "The young man is dressed differently, and the villain is clumsy, so I feel a little weird." ”
Gu Hengxin said that it was his own dress that made others look at him differently, but he couldn't clean up his outfit at this time, so he had to let his hair fall apart, but he sorted out his clothes from beginning to end, and didn't stop until they were smooth.
After a while, Donggu came to the council hall with four people, Gu Heng hurriedly got up, his face was quite anxious, Aoki Fairy saw this, and replied: "The pen, ink and paper have been brought, and I will draw the portrait of Mu Wanling and your mother with you now." ”
Gu Heng was overjoyed, seeing that Aoki Fairy had picked up the pen, so he came to her, and slowly depicted the appearance of the mother in his mind, Aoki Fairy listened while waving the tip of the pen, cinnabar black ink swayed, more than half an hour later, a bust portrait of a woman in red has been painted, Gu Heng took the portrait, suddenly burst into tears, and cried: "It's really like, it's really like my mother!"
Seeing him crying sadly, everyone was a little moved, Aoki Fairy frowned slightly, his eyes were shining, and after waiting for a while, he picked up another piece of drawing paper and said in a low voice: "Gu Heng, you can draw the next one." ”
Gu Heng hurriedly packed up the painting, he carefully told the appearance of the curtain Wanling four years ago to the Aoki Fairy, and said the appearance of the three-eyed thick-nosed beast and the dragon bearded horse, the Aoki Fairy took an hour to complete the painting, Gu Heng took the painting, I couldn't believe that there were people in this world who could paint the appearance of people so realistically with a few words, he held the two paintings with trembling hands, and said loudly: "Thank you Aoki Fairy, I will definitely repay this kindness." ”
Everyone thought it was a little funny, what could this kid repay to Aoki Fairy, but Aoki Fairy nodded and said, "I wish you to find your mother and Makuwanling as soon as possible." ”
Gu Heng thanked him again and flew out of the door.
