Chapter 326: Those Revenants
The twilight of early spring is extremely short, as if it has just arrived and is quickly replaced by night, but the lights in Shengjing City are suddenly bright, as if it were day.
Li Zizhi knew that the pace of walking on the bluestone slab was not fast, but every step was extremely firm, and he already knew where Wen Qingfeng was, because he had thought through what Wen Qingfeng was thinking.
Surrounded by thousands of brightly lit households, half of Li Zizhi's cheeks lit up, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard the sound of beating and scolding the child from a small courtyard just passed.
He quickly crossed the streets and alleys, saw the imperial city in the distance that seemed to be shrouded in red light, thinking about Tang Yinlong, who had died here not long ago, and muttered: "I'm here to avenge you." ”
After speaking, he strode into the imperial city!
The vermilion gates of the imperial city were rarely opened at night, but they were bound to open tonight, and with a huge roar, under a look of awe, Li Zizhi went straight to the palace.
Li Zizhi knew that the news of entering the palace naturally reached the ears of Wen Qinglan, the queen mother, in an instant. She walked out of the hall with a nervous expression, looking out at the dark avenue on the stone steps, the evening breeze blowing her long hair, and the starlight illuminating her cheeks.
Li Zizhi walked from the end of the avenue alone, and saw the emaciated Wen Qinglan from a distance.
Tang Miaomiao also walked out of the hall at this time and came to Wen Qinglan's side, but found that Wen Qinglan saw Mr. Li Zizhi for a moment, and her body softened, as if she had drained all her strength.
Tang Miaomiao hurriedly helped her mother, Li Zizhi came to the two daughters, smiled slightly, and said softly like a spring breeze: "It's been hard these days." ”
Wen Qinglan has really worked hard, since Tang Yinlong's death, the ruffian and Zhao Donghai clearly stood on her side, which is equivalent to handing over Sheng Tang to her.
And she asked herself if she didn't have the ability to govern such a big country, but she had been pushed down from this position, and she had to fight this qiē.
How to resist? Only diligence can make up for the clumsiness!
Tang Miaomiao witnessed the hard work of the queen mother these days, and understood why she seemed to be drained of all her strength after Mr. returned to the palace. Because finally someone can take the responsibility away from her.
After Mr. said that she had worked hard, Wen Qinglan did not ask Wen Qingfeng if she was dead, she said softly: "Sir, Qi Nian's body." “
Li Zizhi said softly: "I'll take a look." ”
The three of them walked into the hall, Tang Qinian, who had been mentally nourished for these days, was leaning on the bed, and Li Yuemei, who hadn't left so late, was plucking the oranges.
Li Yue's eyebrows were very focused on the orange, and she also accurately tore off every white line on the orange petal.
Tang Qinian watched more attentively, but it was not Li Yuemei's action of peeling oranges, but Li Yuemei.
Li Yuemei seemed to have long been accustomed to Tang Qinian looking at her so intently, when she broke the last orange petal. I checked it very carefully, there were eleven of them, and then grabbed six of them and stuffed them in my mouth, picked up one and handed it to Tang Qinian.
For some reason, Tang Qinian's face had an unconcealable look of disappointment, but he still opened his mouth and ate the extraordinarily sweet tangerine petals, only to find that the three queen mothers had come to the side of the two.
Li Yuemei looked very casual, but when she turned around and saw her husband, she immediately stood up and swallowed the orange petal. Stuck out his tongue mischievously.
Li Zizhi raised his eyebrows, looked at Wen Qinglan, looked at Tang Miaomiao, and sat on the finely made solid wood round stool where Li Yuemei was sitting without speaking.
Tang Qinian opened his mouth and said, "Sir." ”
Li Zizhi smiled gently: "Give me your hand." He lifted the corner of the futon. One hand was on Tang Qinian's arm.
Tang Qinian only felt a tingling sensation spread throughout his body, and his eyes suddenly lit up, because his body had lost its sense of touch for a long time, and this numbness was at least a feeling.
Li Zizhi's brows tightened more and more. After a while, he let go of his hand and said, "Qi Nian, I'll open up the sea of qi for you in a while." But if you want to regain consciousness throughout your body, you have to do the Light Limb Grafting Technique. ”
"This spell?" Wen Qinglan asked with a nervous expression.
Li Zizhi shook his head and said: "Not yet, I will write a letter to the ascetic, it doesn't matter, it's not a precious object." ”
When everyone heard this, they put their hearts down, and Li Zizhi also stood up, but said to Wen Qinglan: "I'm going to Jinluan Palace." ”
Wen Qinglan's whole body shook when she heard this, and she understood where the secret she didn't know was that she was afraid of, and her husband Tang Yinlong died because he wanted to protect this secret, so she couldn't help but nod heavily.
Li Zizhi turned his head and walked outside the hall, and when he walked to the door, Wen Qinglan asked, "Are you going to kill him?"
Li Zizhi lowered his head slightly, and without replying, he walked out of the hall.
............
The Jinluan Hall has always been the most sacred place in the imperial palace, because every morning the court will gather here to discuss national affairs and carry out the morning dynasty.
Countless poor scholars and provincial officials have dreamed of standing here, but for Li Zizhi, the meaning of this place is nothing surprising except that it can go underground.
Li Zizhi lit an oil lamp and walked into the empty hall, not imagining the picture of civil and military officials standing on the empty marble floor, but came to the dragon chair, did not sit down, but raised the dragon chair.
The dragon chair creaked, and the oil lamp in his hand was rattling in a gust of wind, and Li Zizhi looked at his footsteps and walked down!
There is a secret passage under the dragon chair, which is something that people in the world will not associate with if they want to break their heads.
This tunnel is very long, after walking into a hundred steps, the soft light of the night pearl appeared in front of him, Li Zizhi blew out the oil lamp, and walked down quickly.
The secret passage is flanked by hard stone walls, which exude an inexplicable luster in the quaintness, and the stairs rotate all the way down, with no end in sight.
Li Zizhi knew that even if he walked like flying, he had walked half a column of incense before reaching the bottom.
At the bottom of the tunnel is a square space, the ground is white jade marble, the walls are hung upside down with all kinds of weapons that are rare in the world, and in front of it is a huge stone door.
The stone gate is the front wall on the north side, and the carvings on it are densely carved, but it is lifelike, which is a picture of the Nine Dragons playing with pearls.
Li Zizhi walked to the door and gently put his hand on the huge gem on the wall, but he didn't exert his strength for a long time, and his expression couldn't hide his nervousness.
Behind this door, there is undoubtedly Sheng Jing's secret, Li Zizhi has not been here for many years, and the reason why he judged that Wen Qingfeng would definitely come was because he understood that a person like Wen Qingfeng, who claimed to be the smartest person in the world, could not tolerate any secrets in his eyes.
Not only did he feel that the most dangerous place was the safest place, but he must have always wanted to know what Sheng Jing's secret was, so that Tang Yinlong could choose to die and wait.
Taking a deep breath, Li Zizhi urged the vitality to activate, and the already lifelike glyphs instantly became vivid, as if the nine true dragons were about to come out of the wall and travel for nine days!
A huge dull sound brought up wisps of dust on the ground, and the walls were separated from the left and right, and Li Zizhi took three steps back, keeping his mind clear.
A thick murderous aura suddenly filled the space where Li Zizhi was, and the swords, guns, swords, and halberds hanging upside down on the three walls buzzed, as if there was an invisible hand about to pick them up.
Li Zizhi took another deep breath and walked into the huge stone gate.
As the sound of his footsteps echoed repeatedly, Li Zizhi walked into the secret of the Tang Dynasty, and the scene in front of him instantly brought tears to his eyes, which had always been calm, he took a deep breath, bent his knees, and knelt down.
On the left and right sides of the space are huge staircase-like sandalwood tables that stretch to the dome.
The dome is inlaid with gems that do not shine brightly, and it is as intimidating as a starry sky.
However, the real daunting of the spirit is the countless tablets on the huge table of the ladder, these tablets are neatly placed, but there is no end in sight, the names of some people are written on the tablets, but the prefix is the word Shengtang!
It's a huge shrine!
Li Zizhi knelt very simply, and after kneeling, he kowtowed three times, and the sandalwood in front of the tip of his nose was swirling, and his inner fluctuations were crazy and rippling for many years.
What caused this inner turmoil was not the extremely spectacular scene in front of him, but the dazzling names on the spirit card!
"Sheng Tang, former military captain Zhao Ergou!"
"Sheng Tang, Centurion Liang Changyou of the Left Army!"
"Sheng Tang, near the martial arts camp Tsing Yi Wei Chen Zhixiao!"
Behind each of these names, there is a soldier who died fighting for the Tang Dynasty, and there are 100,000 spirit cards here, representing 100,000 people who have chosen to pave the way with their lives on the road to establishing the Tang Dynasty.
Li Zizhi raised his head, and the irrepressible emotion in his heart made him start to breathe unevenly, and the meaning of these people to him was much more than that, because he had fought side by side with them, and he could even remember the face behind some familiar names.
Zhao Ergou, a former military cadet, is not good-looking and even ugly, his biggest dream is to go back to his hometown to marry a daughter-in-law and have a baby after leaving the army, his favorite food is roast leg of mutton, but he died early, there was a roast leg of lamb in the army at that time in the Tang Dynasty?
Liang Changyou, the centurion of the left army, was born five big and three coarse, but he is delicate, and it is often rumored in the army that Liang Changyou secretly played embroidery in order to practice patience, and I don't know how many people's big teeth laughed off.
Chen Zhixiao, as his name suggests, has nothing in his eyes, so he wants to take the plate back to serve his mother as soon as possible, and every time he sends down the little military salary, he is entrusted with someone to give it to the old mother, but he eats and drinks all day long, but his comrades-in-arms don't dislike him.
It's just that these living people have died in one war after another in the Tang Dynasty.
They may live in the hearts of their living relatives and friends, but they undoubtedly also live under the Shengjing City.
Because as early as the beginning of Shengjing's replacement of the flag, the barefoot monk established this unknown temple!
It is they who have been guarding Shengjing, once they urge the great array of the sacrificial hall, they will kill the Buddha when they meet the Buddha, and kill the gods when they meet the gods! Because they are the 100,000 soul army of the Tang Dynasty! (To be continued......
