The palace was shining brightly, and the glorious glazed tiles were shining day after day, and Mo Cong walked through the Biwa Zhu Yong with hearty steps, ignoring the emperor's orders.

The queen's dormitory is much higher than the other courtyards, Mo Cong climbed the steep steps to the gatehouse, the gatehouse is several zhang high, the outside is red lacquer Danzhu, the eaves are high, the inside is carved beams and painted buildings, and the colored beams are vertical and horizontal.

"Master Pony, this way. As soon as Mo Cong entered the gatehouse, an old eunuch with a white beard and long eyebrows sneakily led him aside.

Mo Cong didn't speak, followed the old eunuch to a secluded place, saw that there was no one left and right, and asked in a low voice, "Old man, how is the matter entrusted to you to inquire about?"

"Shhhh

Obviously, it was a good thing, but the old eunuch suddenly changed his tone, thinking that he was affected by the events of the day before yesterday, and he was frightened and didn't dare to say it clearly. Mo Cong immediately took out a golden ticket from his arms, stuffed it into the old man, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old man, I'm just curious, just ask." ”

"Curious?" The old man looked at Mo Cong with a pair of strange eyes, then looked at the golden ticket of one thousand gold coins in his hand, and shook his head, "Master Horse, the old slave has been in the palace all his life, as the saying goes, no profit is not early, you gave the old slave so much money, just curious?" said and stuffed the golden ticket to Mo Cong again, and his face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.

"Uh, old man, you are" Mo Cong pinched the golden ticket, looked at the old man's cold face, and his heart was half cold, thinking that the old man was afraid of greed, so he changed for a while. As soon as the news of the black-robed man was broken, saving Kakashi was in vain. Mo Cong didn't want to care about Kakashi's affairs, but he felt disappointed to give up halfway, and he always felt that he owed Kakashi a great favor in his heart, and Princess Koto begged, so he felt that it was his responsibility to rescue Kakashi, so he changed his smile and said: "Old man, don't worry, I really have nothing to do, I just feel new and want to inquire, if you feel embarrassed, then I'll go." Mo Cong turned around, but didn't leave.

The old man shook his head, sighed, with a look of remorse, and said: "Alas, the old slave doesn't want your money, who let me promise you, the old slave who is too detailed doesn't know, only knows that the black-robed people are stationed in the black pine forest thirty miles outside the east of the city. ”

"Don't worry, old man, I won't hurt you or poke out any baskets," Mo Cong was secretly happy in his heart, and arched his hand and said: "Old man, I have left in advance, and I will come to visit the queen tomorrow." ”

"Hey!" the old man stretched out his hand, wanting to say a few more words, but seeing that Mo Cong had already walked away, he stood there and shook his head helplessly.

"He's gone?"

The old eunuch was shaking his head and sighing, and when he heard the gentle voice behind him, he immediately turned around and knelt down, and bowed:

"The old slave see the queen mother. ”

"Let's get flat!"

"Queen Xie!" The old eunuch stood up, lowered his eyebrows and stood aside, and said carefully: "Niangniang, the master of the horse will not make a mess! ”

The queen lowered her eyes and groaned for a moment, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the palace gate with her slender eyes, and said with a light smile: "He'll be fine, you've done a good job." ”

"Qi Yu Niangniang, the old slave has served Niangniang for most of his life, and he doesn't dare to say that it is Niangniang's eyeballs, but the slave never dares to deceive Niangniang. The old eunuch bowed his head respectfully and said, seeing that the queen's clothes were thin and the sun was not visible in the gatehouse, he hurriedly said: "Niangniang, the old slave will send you back to the palace, this is cold, don't freeze your body." ”

"Hmm!" the queen nodded slightly.

There is indeed a pine forest thirty miles away from the west of the capital, the ancient pines in the forest are tall and dense, covering the sky and the sun, the strong pine needles are all dark green, even in broad daylight, the forest is also gloomy and does not see the sun, so the local people call it the black pine forest.

"Brother Ghost, Master Yunsong, Poison Dragon Zhi, be careful. ”

At midnight, the moon shines brightly, and sometimes a dark cloud drifts over the moon like a ghost. The black pine forest was pitch black, quiet and silent, Mo Cong opened his spiritual eye to lead the way, and Mountain Ghost Wen, Poison Dragon Zhi and Huangfu Yunsong followed. The group jumped forward in the forest, and the wind whistled in their ears. After a hurry, Mo Cong suddenly saw a glimmer of light in front of him, as if it was a lantern in the camp.

"Everyone be careful! That black-robed man is very powerful, don't do anything with them unless you have to. ”

"Got it. ”

"Understood!"

In order to infiltrate the camp of the black-robed people, Mo Cong used his memory to find a tailor to make a few black robes, which were also embroidered with gold thread, and a blue ghost fire was embroidered on the back, which looked like it was enough to confuse the real with the fake. However, the evil aura diffused by the black-robed man could not be faked, so several people had to hold their breath and paint their faces with black charcoal.

When the fire was near, Mo Cong and the others found that there was a tall temple standing in that place, and there were two white paper lamps hanging on the stone pillars on both sides of the gate, and a gate seemed to have a grimace, with two fangs carved out of stone, and the two lamps on the stone pillars were the devil's eyes. The breeze blew, the lights danced, and the big mouth seemed to move, looking hideous and terrifying.

Mo Cong and the others held back their breath, hid in the distance and watched, and found that the black-robed people were in twos and threes, coming in and out, and seemed to be very busy.

"It seems that we can get in!" Mo Cong was secretly surprised in his heart, his eyes flashed, and he looked at the poisonous dragon Zhishan Ghost Wen and Huangfu Yunsong Dao beside him.

"That's not right," Mountain Ghost Wen said in a low voice, "Don't you think that the security here is not strict at all? Those black-robed people don't mean to take precautions at all. ”

"Maybe the black-robed man is too powerful and doesn't need to be guarded against. "Poisonous Dragon Zhi Dao.

"Let's try and see if we can get in. Mo Cong said.

"I think that's the only way to do it. Huangfu Yunsong nodded.

Several of them had deliberated, and they all puffed out their chests, draped in black robes and cloaks, and approached the building in a grand manner. Mo Cong was behind the ghost Wen Poison Long Zhi and Huangfu Yunsong in front of him, and several people strode forward, getting closer and closer to the gate, and they could clearly feel that there was an eerie aura in the gate.

When they reached the door, they found that the gate was open, and there was a long passage leading to the ground, which was lit by torches at intervals. There wasn't a figure in the passage at the moment. Mo Cong and the others were overjoyed in their hearts, but their hearts also hung up, holding their breath and walking towards the gate.

Mo Cong was the first to enter the gate, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps from the long passage, Mo Cong was stunned for a moment, exchanged glances with a few people behind him, put up the shelf, stabilized his mind, and walked inside. Finally, the black-robed people walked over, a total of three people, their expressions were serious, and they all stopped when they passed by Mo Cong and the others.

Mo Cong gasped, his heart pounded, and he continued to walk forward as if he was fine, but unexpectedly, the three black-robed people lowered their heads at the same time, and shouted respectfully: "Sir." ”

Mo Cong was stunned for a moment, he didn't know the reason, the mountain ghost Wen quietly pushed him behind him, Mo Cong understood, nodded to those people and continued to walk inside. After taking a few steps, Mo Cong suddenly understood that there was no gold wire pattern on the robes of the black-robed people just now, thinking that the few black robes he imitated were all at the rank of a chief. In this way, the heart is more daring, and swaggering in.

Almost all the passages in the building were open, and a few people soon arrived at a large hall underneath, which was glittering, and in the center was a huge pool of water, which was not filled with water, but was a transparent slimy ball in which something seemed to be wriggling.

Mo Cong and the others were looking at it in wonder, when suddenly hundreds of black-robed people flashed out of the secret door on the wall, and the doors behind them also closed one by one.

"Oh no! I've been tricked!" Mo Cong thought to himself.

"Don't panic," the mountain ghost reminded in a low voice.

Several people pretended to be calm, but their legs trembled involuntarily, and their hearts were pounding.

The black-robed men didn't seem to see them, and they all stood like puppets. Suddenly, there was a "bang" explosion, and the hearts of several people turned into a somersault, and the people almost jumped. Immediately after, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang,

Only then did Mo Cong and the others understand that those noises were violently emitted by the bulging bubbles in the pool, and they also saw clearly that there seemed to be a huge green guy squirming in the pool, and those small bubbles that burst had become half-human, half-ant-like monsters, although the body was still very immature, less than the size of an egg, but it looked very scary.

The big guy in the pool was still squirming, and as those bubbles decreased, Mo Cong could see clearly, the big guy seemed to be a huge ant, looking at the big belly, it should be belly up, a row of air holes on the stomach was snorting and contracting, and suddenly a bunch of white eggs came out of the valley road. It has a strange smell of fishy acidity. Those little green things are gnawing at the slime.

Mo Cong felt nauseous, wanted to vomit but didn't dare to vomit, the hard and burning air in his stomach churned upward, so he had to hold on.

Several people were flushed. The big ant was still ovulating, and then it flowed white foam, and just when Mo Cong wanted to vomit happily, the black-robed people on the left suddenly lifted their robe sleeves, knelt on one knee, and bowed: "My subordinates welcome the master of the horse." ”

Mo Cong was stunned for a moment, and the black-robed man on the right also knelt on one knee in unison, "My subordinates greet the master of the horse." ”

Mo Cong's face was full of surprise, and he looked back at the Poison Dragon Zhishan Ghost Wen and Huangfu Yunsong, and blinked. He saw that the three guys had blank expressions, their eyes glazed over, and they didn't know what to do.

Suddenly, a wall rumbled loudly, the wall slowly rotated, and halfway through, Mo Cong saw that behind the wall, there were bright candles lined up, incense was swirling, and a huge emperor's throne was displayed, and the majestic emperor sat on the throne. The wall stopped, and the black-robed man turned to bow to the emperor again:

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
