The night breeze was gentle, and the indifferent moonlight sprinkled down, covering every corner of the yamen courtyard.

"Alas, it's hard to put into words. Ju Mang's face was bitter, and he shook his head gently with a sigh. Then he tilted his head slightly, silent, as if there was something unspeakable.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ying Zhao let go of him and took a good look at this old friend, but after seeing his haggard face and tired for a while, he suddenly guessed that he must have fled all the way, and his heart couldn't help but feel bitter.

After a while, Ju Mang calmed down the excitement in his heart, and then raised his eyes, looked the Ying Zhao in official uniform up and down, and asked: "Aren't you and Lu Wu in the capital? Why did you run to the Nine Shadows Country to be officials?" ”。

"Because the King of the Nine Shadows is the eldest brother of me and Lu Wu. Ying Zhao smiled proudly and returned the broken sword to the other party, but he didn't remove the handcuffs and shackles for Ju Mang, but pulled him to the side corner: "When he first entered the capital, he saved my life." ”。

"Nine Shadow King, Xiao Shizhu?" Ju Mang's stunned gaze swept across Ying Zhao's face, and an incredible color gradually appeared between his eyebrows.

"Then how did you get out of the drunken capital?" and then he asked in surprise after seeing Ying Zhao nod affirmatively.

In order to prevent the demon souls who had served or been loyal to the good gods like Ying Zhao and them would fall into the hands of his ghosts and make them like tigers and pose a potential threat to his throne, the Emperor Xudu put these demon spirits under house arrest in Xudu; without the permission of the Emperor Xudu or the judges of Hades, the black and white impermanence, they were never allowed to leave the capital without permission.

And it was because he failed to serve the ancient gods that he was able to freely enter and leave the capital and go to the Kingdom of the Gods to seek a job.

But Ying Zhao and Lu Wu, they both led soldiers to the ancient gods to see the gate, and it is impossible for such a demon soul to leave without permission. But Ju Mang never expected that at this time, he actually saw a living Yingzhao outside the capital.

He subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed his eyes a few times, making the handcuffs clang.

"With the help of nobles, and in recent years, the Hades have not bothered to care about us, as long as we don't make trouble. Ying Zhao said lightly, and recalled the token given by black and white impermanence, and a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes.

Ju Mang bowed slightly, and fell silent again.

"Then you came to Xiaoyu Mountain City, you came, why did you sneak into the dungeon?" Ying Zhao pulled him into the corner and asked again in a low voice.

"Kill King Qin Guang. Ju Mang's eyes burst out with anger, and he said angrily: "I saw the Xuan Emperor soldiers and escorted him into the dungeon. ”。

"Is it because he destroyed the Kingdom of the Gods?" asked Ying Zhao with a blank face. When he confirmed that the other party was Ju Mang, he had already guessed that Ju Mang must have gone to prison for this reason.

Ju Mang didn't deny it, but asked lightly: "You also know about this?"

"Yes, my eldest brother informed me in a secret letter a few days ago, saying that King Qin Guang replaced the position of Yin Tian and Zong Tian, led a large army to the east, and destroyed the Kingdom of Escaped God. Ying Zhao bowed slightly, and continued to lower his voice: "He also knows that you escaped." ”。

Ju Mang's heart trembled, thousands of miles away, the news of the Nine Shadows King could be so well-informed, which made him feel shocked, and at the same time, he couldn't help but have a little admiration for Xiao Shizhu in his heart.

The other party even knew very well about the appointment of the handsome position by the Emperor Xudu, which showed that Xiao Shizhu's hands and eyes were all over the sky, and it was definitely not a thing in the pool.

Although there are few ghosts in the land today, the country is not big. But once such a human soul is full-fledged, it can definitely become a ghost who has the ability to compete with Emperor Xudu.

However, Ju Mang still has no bottom in his heart, although the demon spirit in front of him is his old friend, but the King of the Nine Shadows has not shown any intention of rebelling against the Emperor of Xudu, but he has been in Xiaoyu Mountain City for a few days, and he has also heard about some things about how the King of the Nine Shadows caters to the Emperor of Xudu. And he came to the other party to follow Yin Lingzi's wishes, and he didn't fully trust Xiao Shizhu.

He has always been confused about this trip and the future.

The look of surprise on his face gradually turned into a blank in his thoughts.

"My eldest brother wants to change the world, so he is eager to find talent, and he has secret orders for us cronies, but if he finds you, he or other fugitives from the kingdom of God. Ying Zhao bypassed him, walked to the door and looked out, looked left and right, and confirmed that there were no ghosts in the courtyard, then turned back, and whispered in Jumang's ear: "All are secretly taken in, and there is no embarrassment." You go back to the prison today, and I'll find a way to arrange for you to secretly go to Yuque City to meet my eldest brother. But you have to give me some time to find a death row inmate to replace you, causing you to fake your death. ”。

The moon in the sky pierced through the clouds, and the courtyard outside the hall dimmed again.

After hearing this, it was like a water ghost seeing a life-saving straw. He understands heroic tricks, he is more than brave, and he is also coarse and fine, but it is impossible to have such ideas and countermeasures.

The other party can think of and say countermeasures in a short time, it seems that Xiao Shizhu came up with a solution, and Xiao's secret order as Ying Zhao said is also true. From this point of view, the Nine Shadows King must have thought of countermeasures before, and also figured out how to settle these ghosts who were hunted down by the Emperor Xudu.

The confusion in his heart faded a lot, which made Ju Mangtun feel a little relieved.

"Don't worry, my eldest brother will definitely settle you well. Seeing through the confused tricks in his heart, he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a firm tone: "But you can't go to King Qin Guang to seek revenge, and you can't call Jumang anymore for the time being." Believe my brother, he will avenge you in the future. ”。

Ju Mang raised his head and met the firm gaze in Yingzhao's eyes, and after a little thought, he made up his mind to obey his old friend's arrangement, so he no longer hesitated and nodded in response.

"I've wronged you. Ying Zhao brought the hood again, helped him bring it, and helped him put the broken sword in his arms and hide it, before he walked to the back of the door and stood still, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Come on, take the prisoner back to prison." Tell the warden that there is no need to torture, just lock up. ”......

In the middle of spring, there was no coolness in Zhurong Country, where the yin wind was hunting, and on the still sultry wilderness, the scorching light of the cloudy sun projected down from the clear sky, turning the whole wilderness into a blood-like red.

Bifang City, the city that had just calmed down the war, at this time, pieces of wailing and crying came one after another, resounding through the nine skies. The hundred Gu Eagles hovering in the air were screaming even more happily under the angry howl of the yin wind, and the sharp eyes that looked at the ground were full of bloodthirsty longing.

Groups of unique cavalrymen with beautiful faces and long arms of black-haired mandrills rode proudly through the houses of the city, bringing up clouds of dust that had not dispersed for a long time, turning this wilderness oasis into a hazy place.

The two soldiers sitting on the shoulders of the grinning mandrill raised their long whips one after another, shouted loudly, condescendingly supervised the unwilling officials, caught fast and the infantry, forcibly broke open the doors of every house in the city, and rushed into it to search.

Once it is found that there is a ghost who is only ten years old or under the age of ten years old, whether it is a man or a woman, whether it is a human soul or a demon soul, it will be dragged out and beheaded at the door.

The grief-stricken cries and heart-rending begging for mercy shocked many of the searching sergeants and officials and trembled, and they did not want to continue such atrocities.

However, as long as they were a little passive and slack, they were exchanged for a curse and whipping from the cavalrymen riding mandrills.

Facing the long whip wielding the remnant of the debut Dao, the officials and sergeants had no choice but to glare resentfully in the direction of the Guangming Palace, sighed helplessly, and continued to walk forward, continuing to search door to door.

Under the south gate of the Guangming Palace, Wu Hui stood at the gate of the tall palace, his gloomy face hiding in the shadows under the door, frowning and staring at the atrocities in the city. The hands behind his back, his ten fingers clenched hard, but he still couldn't suppress the helplessness and anger in his heart.

This mass murder was not of his will, but from the dictation of Emperor Xudu. That is, it is an oracle, and it is empty words. At this time, Wu Hui could already imagine that after the massacre, the resentment of the people of the entire Zhurong Kingdom towards him must have reached the extreme.

But he didn't dare to disobey, first, he was not the opponent of Emperor Xudu, even if he tried his best to do it, it was nothing more than his arm couldn't twist his thigh.

Second, he is the new lord on the throne, and if he does not have the support of Emperor Xudu, it will be even more difficult to gain a foothold in the underworld. So he didn't dare not accept the order.

The wind blew on his face, making his clothes hunt and hunt.

He slowly closed his eyes, no longer looking at the slaughter that continued outside the palace, but the screams and cries continued to drift into his ears, causing him to be upset for a while.

"What's the matter?, the Fire King can't stand it?" The graceful woman in a light yellow satin skirt standing side by side with him, after seeing Wu Hui closing his eyes for a moment out of the corner of her eye, she smiled: "The scene when you killed your brother Zhu Rong is probably not as good as what you see now, right?"

After finishing speaking, the woman turned her head, and after looking Wu Hui up and down with a playful gaze, she asked with great interest: "Did Zhu Rong beg for mercy at that time, or did he cry? Did he scream?"

Wu Hui was stunned, suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head, glared at the woman who seemed to be smiling with anger in his eyes, and snorted angrily, and the woman still maintained a charming smile, her face was full of relief, and there was no trace of shame and guilt.

"You should thank Your Majesty, many of these children who were killed supported Zhu Rong and posed a potential threat to your throne. The woman and Wu Hui looked at each other, their eyes were tender like water, their lips opened lightly, and they said calmly: "And Your Majesty also taught you what it means to be non-toxic and not a husband." Congratulations to the Fire King, from this moment on, you have also become a great husband who stands up to the sky. ”。

"You ......" Wu Hui's eyes were even more angry, and just raised his hand and pointed at the other party, the woman had already taken broken steps, and walked out of the palace gate without looking back, and walked slowly down the stone steps towards the city.
