Chapter 37 Linjiang Palace

Chi Tang was shocked: "There are two more?"

"I also heard Brother Xiong talk about it, the Fly Mountain clan called that night the Mid-Moon Food Meeting, and they all said that the Fly Mountain Four Spirits Self-Feeding Meeting only brought back fifty-two heads, but Brother Chi, you think, we counted several times before we set off, do you remember how many times?"

“...... You and me, Pengcheng Zhang Yan, Chimo Xiahou, Yanshan Lukui, Langzhong Yu Tao, Dongcheng Li Du......" Chi Tang snapped his fingers, and said these familiar names one by one, and a trace of sourness faintly passed in his heart, that is, these warriors and heroes who have been famous for a long time have all become sacrifices in the mouth of the demon that night, and after reporting to the most ruthless, he nodded very affirmatively, "Count it down, it is fifty-six people who are correct." ”

"Yes, it's fifty-six! But the four spirits of Fly Mountain only brought back fifty-two heads, so doesn't that mean that there are still four people who survived? Except for you and me, who are the other two?"

"Will it ...... Is there a deviation based on the number of heads alone? Does Brother Chen still remember? At that time, the demons were so ferocious, devouring and chewing and crushing their bodies, I was afraid that even the people and their bodies would be eaten by the demons. Chi Tang frowned and groaned.

Chi Tang's words made Dong Yao couldn't help but shudder, although she had not seen the tragic scene of demons and cannibalism with her own eyes, but after a little inference from Chi Tang's few words, she felt frightened and shuddered.

"Never. Chen Song shook his head with certainty, "What do you think the four spirits of Fly Mountain are doing when they bring them back to the first level? That is because the Rudan Demon Queen of Zhilu Dao is addicted to cannibalism, and specially took it down to worship her, Rudan Demon Queen has a very high status in Fly Mountain, how dare the Four Spirits deceive her? It is precisely because of this that I can be sure that there were indeed four people who did not die that night. ”

"This is strange, I am the power of the fire crow to protect the stealth, Brother Chen was captured alive, I remember very clearly at that time, only you and I are still alive on the field, and the last one to fall is Nanzhong Yuan Cong, and I don't see anyone else. Could it really be that two people escaped in the snare carefully laid by the demons unknowingly?" Chi Tang carefully recalled the scene of that night, after the four spirits of the Fly Mountain appeared, they killed Huo Kuang and Yu Tao in a row, and then all the assassins rushed up to fight with them, the scene was very chaotic at that time, if someone took the opportunity to get out, it should be this time. But who exactly are these two people, and how did they get out? I really can't guess.

At the end, Chi Tang still turned his head sideways and asked Ji Rui Xue Yang, this was almost the most common behavior for him to encounter questions after he entered the Demon Suppression Dao, and this time was no exception: "Two junior brothers, how do you explain this?"

"I originally thought that it was just one person, but I didn't expect it to be two. Ji Rui and Xue Yang glanced at each other, but Ji Rui cleared her throat, "I said that one of your assassins must be the internal response of those demons. In other words, your fifty-six assassins are composed of fifty-five human masters and one demon who has changed human bodies, and it makes sense that there is one less. ”

"Yes, the fourth junior brother said this. For a while, Chi Tang and Ji Rui Xue Yang seemed to have returned to the day when they had a long talk in the Dong Mansion, that is, on that day, Chi Tang first learned about the existence of the Jing Chu Qianjia Demon Slayer.

"And now it's two less, and there are only two explanations. Ji Rui stretched out two fingers and bent one of them: "First, those demons should not be one, but two, luring you into the spot and then quietly retreating." ”

Chen Song still shook his head: "I heard that Rudan Enchantress was very dissatisfied with this matter, and afterwards said that the four spirits of Fly Mountain were several times, it seems that someone escaped and came out is really a big surprise to her, given that she has ordered the Lingfeng girl to chase after Brother Chi, it can be known that it is not because of Brother Chi that she is dissatisfied." It can also be seen from this that at least the other two will not all be the internal response of these demons. ”

Ji Rui exhaled and curled another finger: "Second, in addition to Master Chen Zhai and Senior Brother Chi, there is indeed a third figure unknown to us who has escaped from the demon trap. And that person is either like Senior Brother Chi, and he also has the power of the Five Directions Qianjun, and he can get rid of the power of self-generation and protection when he is in trouble. ”

"This may not be big, among the five scholars in the world, it is known that I and Han Li, who is the master of the thunder, are both Qianjun people of the Five Directions, could it be that the Qianjun people are against the martial artists of the world? If this is the case, it is too bizarre by coincidence, is it really as the senior brother often says, there is a providence in the dark?" Chi Tang immediately denied it, but Chen Song and Luo Yi were moved in their hearts when they heard it on the side, how could the trouble of demons be related to Xiping Yunecze?

Ji Rui smiled and nodded: "I also know that it is impossible, because only the Nanli Fire Raven Statue of the Five Monarchs Hall had a response on that day, and I don't think that our Qianjia has been looking for a long time The Five Directions Qianjun Transformation People would be so coincidental that two of the assassins appeared among the Assassins at the same time." Then, this strange man who escaped is probably in another way. Maybe it's some magic tricks that can hide and hide in the Demon Dao, or maybe it's the doorway that knows the Qimen Dunjia......"

Almost at the same time, Chen Song and Chi Tang Huo Ran raised their heads, and the two of them said a name in unison: "Xiahou Tong!"

※※※

Hufeng Gorge is surrounded by dangerous mountains, confined to a pool of stagnant water, said to be stagnant water, that is the three sides of the dangerous mountains are tightly covered, and there is no bifurcation and drainage of the waterway. But strangely, it is this stagnant water that has formed a whirlpool with a strong traction force, and any ship that enters it will be broken by the mast of these whirlpools, and even the bones of people and boats will be drowned in the whirlpool without a trace. The old boatmen who often sail the waterway say that it is the place where the water god rests, and he does not want to be disturbed by mortals. Fortunately, this Hufeng Gorge is only a small branch of the Yangtze River waterway, which does not hinder the normal navigation of the Yangtze River waterway.

Juan'er stood on the side of the boat, listening to the boatmen talking about all kinds of grotesque rumors about Hufeng Gorge, and looked at the steep mountains and rocks in the distance in the surging river, but she was quite curious. It turned out that the passenger ship was delayed, and the shipkeeper took it upon himself to take a shortcut from the partial branch channel, but fortunately there was nothing wrong all the way, and it was a few days faster than the ordinary waterway, and it was about to enter the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. It is precisely because of the navigation of this partial channel that it actually sails from the side of this Hufeng Gorge.

"Girl, don't look at it. Feng Yingxiu, who walked out of the cabin, approached Juan'er, who was dressed in men's clothes, and whispered.

A river gull quacked and swept past the side of the boat, Juan'er looked questioning, but Feng Yingxiu set her eyes on the rocky canyon in the distance, and frowned slightly: "In that place, there are strange things, and there is a deep yin qi." ”

"Did you listen to it?" Juan'er smiled and pointed to the river gull that was flying farther and farther away, she knew very well that Feng Yingxiu could listen to the words of birds and beasts.

Feng Yingxiu pulled Juan'er over and let her enter the cabin with herself, while continuing to whisper: "Where there is yin qi and evil spirits, it's better not to look at it too much, don't forget, I can also see things that you can't see." Be careful, avoid twists and turns, after sailing through this section of the river, we are truly safe. In a few days, we'll have to disembark and take the overland route. ”

......

Passing the fast-moving passenger boats, crossing the tumbling and turbulent river, and turning over the jagged rocks, there is a large empty water surface, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there is no one to see, and there is not even a single flying waterfowl.

Breaking through the surface of the water, it is a strange whirlpool formed by the traction of the undercurrent, the water flow is agitated, and the bubbles are rising, which is the water flow of black ink, which is very different from the colorless river water that flows in from the Yangtze River waterway.

It wasn't until dozens of feet under the water that the water color gradually cleared, and there was no undercurrent surging whirlpool, it was a different kind of tranquility, countless fish swam slowly in the water, as if the sunlight was straight through the water surface, and was not affected by the whirlpool. When the light shines directly on the bottom of the water, it is clear that a huge stone slab is standing in front of it, the stone slab is square and flat, by no means a natural formation, and some strange patterns can be seen on it, and at the bottom of the stone slab, a long crack is exposed.

When he didn't get into it, he suddenly seemed to be plunged into the boundless darkness, and he seemed to be able to hear some small sounds, which became louder and louder, and when it was finally clear that it was a woman's sobbing, it suddenly lit up.

Like a fairyland, the green mountains and green waters, obviously can not see any sun, moon and clouds of the blue sky, but at this moment it reveals a very clear light, a cluster of Han style palace pavilions are located under the green mountains, a clear spring pours down from the edge of the palace, with a very elegant match.

The sound of sobbing came from the innermost palace of this temple, and through the beautiful Biwa Zhuyong, you could see a high-haired woman in gorgeous clothes lying on the embroidered couch decorated with shellfish carvings, and a beautiful girl with blond hair and blue eyes standing next to the golden throne behind the embroidered couch, looking at it with some helplessness, wanting to help but wanting to do it again.

Fan Gongtai, who was dressed in a red robe and bowed his head and was silent, stood far away, opposite the embroidered couch of the high-haired woman.

As soon as she left from Leopard Hidden Mountain, Fan Gongtai rushed to the Linjiang Palace, and reported the news of the death of Yu Xiaoxiao, the god of the waves. What shocked Fan Gongtai was that when she heard the news of Yu Yuxiao's death, she was first stunned, then pale, and then like a stubborn mortal woman in the world, tears fell like rain.

It is no wonder that although they are at odds on the face, they are biological brothers and sisters in the end, and they still have blood and blood affection in the end. Fan Gongtai thought secretly in his heart, he was very aware of the past between Concubine Ao and the Lord of the Absolute Waves, I heard that they had a strange intimacy beyond that of sister and brother, until Concubine Niangniang had a new love, the Lord was angry and turned against him, the two have been at odds so far, in short, it is because of love and hatred, messy mortal entanglements, who can say clearly? He was really shocked that with the thousands of years of cultivation of Concubine Niangniang, he should have been in an unwavering and detached state of mind, but why was it still so exposed, contrary to the way of the Holy Spirit? But when he thought of the scene when Chitang was full of flames and was sideways in front of him, Fan Gongtai had to sigh secretly and no longer moved.

"The more and more thousands, how can I lose my brother's life? What does the broken sea do? Just watch!" Concubine Yu cried bitterly for a while, and suddenly got up, the tears on her face were not dry, but there was a flash of light in her eyes, and a cold and piercing cold air spread. Bunusha hurriedly stepped forward, not avoiding the cold, and wanted to take Concubine Bunusa into a seat, but Concubine Nusa pushed away Bunusa's hands and only stared at Fan Gongtai.

"The Broken Sea God led most of the troops to fight with Gongsun Fuying in the front mountain, and the lord skillfully used a trick to lead us and other elites of the headquarters to sneak in from the back mountain, which was originally to be attacked in two ways. Where do you know that there is a fire crow saint in the mountain behind the road, the magic power is superb, not under the Gongsun Fu martingale, the lord has a strong temperament, knowing that he is invincible, he will not retreat, and he is killed by the fire crow saint...... Killed...... We are heartbroken, we should be a death to repay the Lord, but before the Lord leaves, but we want to retreat first, this battle has no luck, the Lord said that he died, showing the dignity of my water clan, is in line with the Niangniang's intentions, but I want to wait for this remnant body, live one by one, return to follow the Niangniang, sooner or later for his revenge!" Fan Gongtai's words are half-true and half-false, and what is even more clever is that he first rendered Yu Yuxiao's death extremely heroic, and then pushed it all to Concubine Niangniang's head, the idea of this battle of dignity was the idea of Concubine Kui, Yu Xiaoxiao obeyed each other to death, which is reasonable, and it also makes Concubine Ao not to blame. In the end, the conversation turned slightly, and first said that the situation of the demons retreating in panic was Yu Yuxiao's last order, and they had to listen to it. Moreover, it is logical that he took refuge in the new master, and followed Concubine Yu to avenge Yu Xiaoxiao.

Concubine Yu was stunned for a long time, although Fan Gongtai had a false pretense, she was convinced that she knew her younger brother too well, and it was really possible for Yu Yuxiao to do this with her negative temperament. Yu Weixiao originally had been opposed to his own conquest of Jinping Yuan, just for the dignity of the water to disagree with the proposition, but first Pingtaowu suffered an accident, since then it has not been, speaking of which, this change itself has a big difference, but Yu Xiaoxiao unexpectedly did not say anything sarcastic; This is also her heart for her younger brother, but now it seems that she has harmed her younger brother, and a generation of water gods has lost her soul.

Concubine Yu's thoughts were sad, and sadness came from it, and tears poured out again, and she couldn't help herself. Bunusa stood behind Concubine Yu, also silent, Yu Yuxiao almost became her first man, and she also believed that Yu Yuxiao would become her first man sooner or later, so there was always a strange emotion for this handsome and abnormal Absolute Wave Divine Venerable. Now that he was dead and would never appear in his life again, Bunusa suddenly felt a little sour in his heart.

In the midst of sobbing, footsteps were fluctuating, and a tall white-robed man was walking proudly from outside the palace gate, and his clear and loud voice came from afar: "Xiaoxi, why are you crying?"
