Chapter 221: Menacing
Two days later.
In the anxious afternoon, there is an unsettling atmosphere in the air.
Linghua passed through the heart mirror and saw a dark cloud covering the sky and the sun drifting towards Zhaoyuan. This cloud is particularly familiar, composed of dozens of severed hands and feet, and they are pressed together tightly, like a dead body that has been crushed.
The clouds moved at the speed of a normal person's walk, and soon they were close to the sky above Partridge Mountain.
Although Partridge Mountain is not a high mountain, it is the highest near Zhaoyuan, and it seems that you can reach out and touch the blue sky with your head raised from the top of the peak.
Seeing this, Heng Gu went out of the house to check: "Isn't this the trick of Dancheng?"
He knew the path well, and when his fingers flipped over, the flames of heaven were already burning in the palm of his hand, and he flew onto the eaves, and flew up to the clouds with his toes, and it was a blow to the severed limb.
The tongue of fire was like a dragon, swallowing the black cloud in one gulp, and all the hands and feet turned into powder, drifting along the hot and humid wind to the unknown hills.
The sky was cloudless and clear.
"Linghua! Did you see it, it really works!" He ran back and pulled Linghua excitedly, "At that time, this broken limb cloud caused us to dodge left and right, and now it is burned clean at once, this heavenly fire really works!"
Linghua also breathed a sigh of relief, no one wanted to watch such a bloody scene for the second time.
She also grabbed Henggu and happily took him into her arms: "This is the best, I am most afraid of repeating the disaster of Dancheng. In this way, the people of Zhaoyuan will not have to suffer even more."
She gently wrapped her arms around Henggu's waist, her fingertips caressing the boy's back, as if trying to find out the lines of the bones.
Linghua's initiative is not rare, Heng Gu's face turned red in an instant, and he used his afterglow to peek at the woman's current expression.
"Are you at peace now?" He asked, swallowing.
"Well, it's very reassuring to have you around."
Heng Gu's heart couldn't help but beat faster, a smile that couldn't be hidden on his face, and he obediently stood still to enjoy the hug after a long time: "Me too."
Since Ning Suhe returned to his body, Linghua's mood is no longer as constricted as before, although many emotions are still hidden in his heart, but the slightest wisps of revelation have indicated the current emotions.
Maybe what Ning Suhe said was right, they were originally divided into two parts by one person, each of them was not complete, and only when they were combined was the original Linghua.
What separates the two is the cloud of severed limbs that floats again. As if sensing the power of the Eternal Ancients, this cloud exploded when it was still a black spot.
The rain of blood fell swiftly like a string of beads in the direction of being pulled, aiming at the place where Henggu was. After it was burned with Skyfire, the blood rain did not turn to ashes.
It became a viscous piece of unidentified object, entangled and rolled in the air, and then formed two blood words-
"Waiting to die?" Heng Gu stared at these two straightforward words, and decisively shot out to scatter the words with heavenly fire.
At this moment, the words were completely burned and destroyed, and the breath of blood control power filled the dust and smoke, surrounding his side for a long time.
"Jiang Caokong told us to wait for death? Does she like to be born so much?" Heng Gu asked, "It's too ungraceful to use such angry and corrupt words to write a war letter."
Linghua felt a different message from these two words, she shook her head and said, "Maybe it's not just for the sake of each other."
"And who else? Is it because of Bihu?" Henggu scratched the hair on the back of his head, "She doesn't like Bihu that much, does she?"
"It's because of us." Linghua said, "We have always been her obstacle, ever since she tried to snatch the Mirror of Mind, we have stood opposite her and kept obstructing her.
Now that she is eager to recruit Bihu under her command, she has also died because of us, and she has failed and been frustrated one after another, and her mentality will naturally not be as stable as before."
"Then maybe she'll be even more ruthless?! So how do we deal with it? Can you fight with your current strength?"
Heng Gu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot: "She didn't say when she was going to fight!"
He patted his head to calm down, pursed his lips and didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly led Linghua to sit in front of the heart mirror and put her hand on the mirror.
"Let's see what tricks she uses, know herself and her opponent, and be invincible!"
But Linghua said, "No. When we glimpse the future, the future will change because of our prying eyes. Naturally, I want to be invincible, but it is impossible to win by using the connoisseurship to find out his tricks."
"But we do need information, so it's better to ...... like this," Linghua remembered an old man and opened the Mind Mirror.
The mirror revealed An Huai's big face, he was lying on the bed, and a blind man behind him was breaking his shoulder.
"Anhuai?"
"Ouch! Master tap it!"
"Can you be in the woods?"
"Ahhh Baby Qin Si's family is going to die of pain!"
"Ann ......"
Qin Si's orchid finger stroked An Huai's shoulder distressedly: "Don't cry baby, just break it twice, you need to break it after sitting on the desk for a long time, and then bear with it."
An Huai stretched out his hand with a sad face: "Woo woo, the baby took my hand."
The blind master immediately pressed his big arm: "Guest officer, why don't we hold hands, why should I break if you hold hands?"
"Woo......
"Bear with it!"
Linghua was speechless and watched An Huai and the massage master pulling, and finally couldn't bear to inject the spiritual power into the mirror, pierced to the place where An Huai was, and slapped his head and face.
"Who?!" An Huai covered his head and was about to have a seizure, when he felt a moment of sudden shock, "This spiritual power, Linghua?"
He threw a few copper plates to his master and returned to Canglan Pavilion.
"Jiang Caokong's whereabouts?" An Huai didn't look up, his fingers flew, and the abacus crackled, "Last time, I didn't give it a few times if I still had time to go back."
"How can you go back in time? You don't even remember how to ask for money." Henggu stood behind Linghua with his hands on his chest, like a personal guard.
An Huai took out a fan and shook the rocking chair leisurely: "I don't remember, but you remember, you remember, but you have to repay the debt, this is not something that two noble people can do."
"Of course we don't owe you anything that should be given to you." Linghua said, "But Jiang Caokong's movements are related to the safety of the people of Zhaoyuan, if Zhaoyuan is breached, every city in the world may become the next Zhaoyuan."
She raised her eyebrows: "Prince An Huai cares about the world, and he will not be like that woman who is evildoer, taking advantage of the crisis to seek benefits and money. Presumably, when the people learned that it was Prince An Huai who provided the news, they would definitely build an ancestral hall for you to worship and sing praises for ten thousand years."
"Enough is enough." The fan was so pressed by the top hat that it couldn't lift its head, and it was tossed aside like an eggplant.
An Huai put away his teasing attitude and said, "I will always pay attention to Jiang Caokong's movements, and if necessary, Qin Si and I will not stand idly by."
Qin Si's shrill voice also floated slowly: "Of course~ Although I, Qin Si, am not so powerful, it is not a problem to kill one or two demon soldiers~"
Linghua's heart warmed, and he said to the two, "Reinforcements have arrived, you don't have to come. Coupled with the danger of Zhaoyuan, I still need the two of you to provide information...... Take care and don't put yourself at risk."
Before An Huai could speak, Qin Si leaned over and squeezed him aside, and the orchid pointed at Linghua on the left and Henggu on the right: "Don't just talk about us, you are the same, I'm still waiting to drink your wine!"
As soon as the words fell, An Huai Nahan said, "Drink happy wine? Do you know them well?"
Qin Si covered her face aggrievedly and stomped her feet and said, "Huai Baobao, people are just happy to be beautiful as adults~"
Linghua couldn't stand them anymore, so he threw down the sentence "Remember to give news" and turned off the heart mirror.
That night, the leaves of the Anhuai tree floated in, and the content was a conversation between the demon army. probably said that Jiang Caokong suddenly took away a large number of demon troops, and these demons are gone forever, and no one knows their whereabouts.
There is also a piece of news about her whereabouts, An Huai's voice is low, saying that Jiang Caokong has camped in the mountains near Zhaoyuan, and the strange thing is that she is the only one who is alone, and there is no other demon army in sight.
"According to the current news, there should be two groups of demon armies near Zhaoyuan." Henggu and Linghua analyzed, "One batch is through Hongji and others
In response to the distribution, these demon armies were originally scattered in Zhaoyuan, and after the death of Xiangsu, they were uniformly ordered to control Zhaoyuan.
The other batch is the missing demon army in An Huai's news, I guess this should be Jiang Caokong's killer weapon, she is very likely to use the power of blood control to turn these demon armies into puppets, or ......."
Henggu looked at the night sky outside the window: "Have they all turned into those clouds?"
But there was peace in the sky, without the slightest breath of blood control.
"She's not going to do it, is she?" Heng Gu lifted his shoes and ran to the door of the room, and then turned back to explain to Linghua: "I'll go to Lao Yang to discuss, you don't have to wait for me, rest early."
After saying that, he ran away with a smoke, and disappeared.
Linghua couldn't help but sigh with relief when he saw the unsteady appearance of the person next to him when he received the news: "Henggu, you are really becoming more and more responsible."
"Really?"
The sweet, blood-stained smell was particularly dangerous in the night, and the familiar low female voice sounded in her ears: "I don't think so, the panic and vigilance of these stupid things all indicate only one thing."
Her cold fingers touched the top of Linghua's head, which was the best place to plant seeds.
"It's the fear of me."
Jiang Caokong's long armor didn't have time to *** Linghua's head, so she grabbed her wrist and twisted it hard.
"Click".
The sound of the dislocated bones was unusually clear in the quiet of the night, and she grabbed the dislocated tiger claw and asked without showing weakness, "Then did you come to look for me on the eve of the great war, also out of fear of me?"
"Hahahaha!" Jiang Caokong didn't laugh angrily, held his claw with one hand to loosen Linghua's clamp, and looked down at her face in the moonlight, "It's stupid."
The tiger demon's bright red and round lips opened and closed, and the corners of his mouth contained obvious mockery: "Why are you afraid? I'm just trying to figure out, after killing you, should I keep a whole corpse? Or might you cut off your hands and feet and keep them for fun?"
She smiled even more, "It's better to stay longer and have fun."
Linghua's eyebrows furrowed slightly, she felt that the thousand-year-old tiger demon in front of her was not as confident as before, and a flowing unstable aura was swimming above her head.
She sat up and looked directly into the tiger demon's brown pupils, from which she saw endless ambitions and desires.
So she said, "You must have something to say when you came to me, but you kept talking about him, so I will ask you." I've remembered what happened thousands of years ago, why do you keep wanting to conquer the human realm?"
Jiang Caokong snorted coldly, left Linghua's side, and found a place to sit down with ease: "The world needs a better master. If you look at the world today, do they deserve it? Those useless fools will not use humans perfectly, and the world needs a more suitable master!"
"But your suitability is based on self-interest." Linghua criticized mercilessly, his hand silently groping under the pillow, "Your so-called 'master' is to treat humans as tools and pets that can be played! You don't know what a true emperor is."
"Don't talk so high about yourself!" Jiang Xiaokong slapped the table and stood up, and for the first time, Linghua saw clear anger and injustice in her expression, "Aren't human beings selfish? Wouldn't humans keep other creatures in captivity? Why do I go the other way around, and you think I'm all for myself?"
"If human beings are really so good, why should they cry and beg me to take him? If the human race is really so great, why did everyone in Zhaoyuan not dare to resist the demon army, and even believed in Hongji and took the initiative to give the child to me to refine the blood pill?"
"Heh......" Jiang Caokong gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to swallow all the humans into mud in his mouth, "They are just stupid and insignificant ants who can sacrifice others for their own survival, why should I care about their lives or deaths?"
The tiger demon's eyes released a terrifying blood red: "All humans are not worthy of being treated sincerely, they must die!"
At the moment when Jiang Caokong's mood fluctuations were at their strongest, Linghua touched what he was thinking.
Without hesitation, she unleashed the power of the Mind Mirror, and the grand light enveloped the two of them, enveloping them into the Spirit Mirror.
