Volume 1 Chapter 100 The Goddess Themis
The influence of Anantassha had not yet subsided, and Ren Yi's entire mind was in chaos. Just escaped from death, and the loss of life energy was huge.
He lay in the dilapidated and declining town of Chikou, the cold wind blew, and the dream of the blue-clothed cicada reappeared in his mind.
……
"Your Majesty." The cicada reappears in an unfamiliar military tent.
Across from him sat an old man in armor with a white beard. The old man's cheeks were thin, but his eyes were bright, and he was not angry.
This person is the Emperor of Houyan, Murong Chui.
Biyi Cicada smiled: "Since Your Majesty has annihilated the remnants of Murong Yong, you should believe in my sincerity." ”
"My request is very simple, just tell me about the old news of Yan Palace. A few words of gossip, Murong Yong just beat around the bush with me and hid it. ”
"Now that Tuoba Jue is eyeing him, if His Majesty needs it, I will do my best to share His Majesty's worries."
Murong sighed, squinted his eyes and said, "Old news...... What are you referring to? I'm old, and I can't remember how many old stories I've heard. ”
"Speaking of this, Your Majesty must remember it vividly." Biyi Cicada smiled wryly, "It's that you once had a psychic nephew." ”
"Oh, you mean my imperial brother, Emperor Jingzhao, about the construction of the imperial tomb, right?" Murong stroked the white beard under his chin, "This thing is indeed very weird, quite ominous, and it has caused a stir in the palace. ”
"At that time, I was still the king of Wu, and I was often forbidden to walk around in the palace, so I really remember it clearly."
"It all started with my brother's determination to build a mausoleum for himself. At that time, the Yan Kingdom was at its peak, and the construction of the emperor's mausoleum could not be sloppy. I chose a feng shui treasure. ”
Murong Trai recalled.
"On the day the foundation was laid, the ceremony was very grand. Suddenly, the King of Bohai in the palace, who was my psychic nephew, behaved abnormally and went insane. ”
He stood up suddenly, and wept loudly, startling the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting beside him, and then he stumbled and knocked down many ornaments as if he could not see. The people who served him thought that he was suffering from an eye disease and immediately went to the imperial doctor. ”
The ladies of the palace held him up, fearing that he would fall. However, if you follow him for a while, you will find that his behavior is not irregular, and his steps seem to be avoiding something. ”
"Hide from what he can see, but what others can't."
Speaking of this, Murong Chui's face was very bad.
The doctor looked into his eyes and said it was fine, but he had a nightmare. Although others are awake, all they see are scenes from dreams. ”
"In other words, what he saw with his eyes was something else that he thought was real."
Then he pointed in the distance in the direction where the imperial tomb was about to be excavated, and shouted that there was a woman standing there, a woman who was completely white!
"Huh?" The cicada in blue clothes was in a cold sweat when she heard it.
Murong Trai said excitedly: "How can there be someone in there?" There was no excavation at all, it was a completely natural mountain! ”
"Everyone thinks that his words are too ominous, and I am afraid that it is a sign of the destruction of the country!"
"So...... Was the excavation of the Imperial Tomb affected? Biyi Cicada asked.
Murong Chui shook his head: "No." The excavation of the imperial tomb is a major event related to the fortunes of the country, how can there be a little mistake! ”
"The mausoleum was dug normally, and none of the overseers found any pure white women."
"This matter was suppressed and not allowed to be mentioned again. Until my imperial brother's funeral and burial in the imperial mausoleum. ”
"The funeral procession carried my brother's coffin into the burial chamber and ......"
Speaking of this, Murong Chui took a deep breath, as if remembering some memory that he didn't want to mention again.
"Then, in the place where the coffin should have been parked, I saw that strange woman dressed in pure white!"
Biyi Cicada couldn't help but hold her breath, "Actually...... Is there such a thing? ”
"The woman was more of a living statue than a human being."
"Her whole body was carved out of white stone, but she was really alive. Moving, talking. ”
"The body is decorated with very complex and beautiful jewelry, but the origin of the unknown jewelry, patterns."
"She is holding a glass bottle in her hand, and her movements are like running to the moon."
Murong Chui continued.
Someone thought of the abnormality of the King of Bohai on the day of the excavation of the underground palace, and immediately asked the King of Bohai to talk to her alone. Listening to what he said, the stone fairy really knows everything about astronomy and geography, and it is so weird! ”
"In order to maintain the royal face, we must not admit that something strange happened during the burial, so we can only do everything possible to spread rumors among the people, saying that this was the tomb site chosen by the immortals for themselves, and a beautiful statue was sent to guard it. After a long time, the statue absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, and there is Taoism. Therefore, it is a sign of great luck. ”
"But who would believe it, soon the people spread that digging out the stone man into a spirit is a sign of a great demon."
"The unpredictable prophet of the Bohai King described this stone man word for word, and naturally became the target of public criticism."
"Later, Dayan died after all."
"Looking back on the past, it's too embarrassing."
Biyi Cicada asked curiously: "What happened later?" Where did the fairy go? ”
"She must not be seen by the world, and it is not safe to hide anywhere, so they continue to keep her in the mausoleum."
Biyi Cicada nodded thoughtfully, "After this incident, what is wrong with the King of Bohai?" ”
Murong said, "No." Since then, he has been much more honest, and he looks like he has seen through the red dust all day long, and he is no longer crazy and saying strange things. However, I was soon forced to leave the country, and I don't know what happened after that. ”
The blue-clothed cicada saluted and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your doubts." ”
Murong stroked his beard and sighed: "Speaking of the past, I am really full of emotion. At this age, I'm already in the last years of life. I don't know how many times I'll have the opportunity to reminisce like I do today. ”
Biyi Cicada listened quietly, and did not say some polite words like others.
"One more question, Your Majesty, what is the name of the King of Bohai?"
"It doesn't hurt to tell you," Murong thought for a moment and said, "His name is 'Murong Ling'." ”
……
Ren Yi's dream came to an abrupt end, and he woke up.
He thought about the conversation that appeared in his dream, and his heart beat violently and he was covered in a cold sweat!
"Pure white, a living statue ......"
"Moving, talking, knowing everything......"
"The body is decorated with very complex and beautiful jewelry, patterns, and ...... of unknown origin"
His eyes widened in the night, "Isn't that the goddess Themis!" ”
She wasn't discovered by the Patrol Division while building the ramparts; But more than 1,000 years ago, she appeared in a mountain!
Why is she there? And how did you get in?
More importantly, what exactly is she......
Is she really guarding things for the "immortals"? And what is she guarding?
"Ahem......" Ren Yi was physically exhausted, and his eyes went black and fell again.
The influence of Anantashe still haunts the Lingzhou region. Soon Ren Yi fell into a deep sleep, and the chaotic thoughts in his mind flickered and disappeared like a broken TV.
The memory was completely forgotten.
