Chapter Twenty-Three: A Hair (1)

There is only a line of light left in the sky, the sun sinks and falls west at a speed visible to the naked eye, replacing the smoke that falls in the air, it is the repeated cooking smoke floating above the Baili village, everything around is gradually dimmed, blurred in the sunset, the forest behind the Baili tribe, a lot of fog has accumulated, the whole village is shrouded in it, from a distance, the whole village seems to be hidden in the clouds, quiet and far away.

As soon as she returned to the bamboo house, she closed the door, inserted the bamboo latch into the door, walked to the couch, lifted the quilt, and gently lowered the curtains on both sides, and then opened the wardrobe, took out the fire spirit beads and carefully carried them on her body, and found a dark gauze to change into, found a black handkerchief to take on her body, walked to the window, used magic to hide, and slipped out of the gap in the bamboo house.

Yaohuan stood in front of the bamboo house, looking around, the night did not know when it quietly fell, the dissolving moonlight sprinkled down from the night sky, like a thin gauze dress, beautiful and gentle, soft draped on the earth, the shadows of the trees in the forest were mottled, the gentle night breeze blew from everywhere, gently caressing Yaojuan's cheeks, the moonlight stretched her shadow, projecting a slender figure on the ground.

She jumped lightly on the roof, carefully observing the surrounding environment, there was a voice at the end of the bluestone steps, as if coming from the pavilion, she remembered what she saw in the Xuanyu room a few days ago, turned around decisively, and walked in the other direction.

She bypassed the guards patrolling back and forth in the stockade, and walked lightly to the door of the stockade, but found that there were only two guards with spears at the door of the village, leaning against the bamboo fence of the gate of the village with their spears, and dozing off one by one.

Yaohuan drove the clouds quickly, although there were a lot of situations on the road, but after more than an hour, she still rushed to the mountain.

She didn't have half an understanding of the mountain, but she still remembered the situation she saw on the mountain when she came back to look for Xuanxuan, the mountains here are steep, the rocks are craggy, and there are cliffs and cliffs everywhere, if you are not very familiar with the terrain, no one will come up easily, not to mention that it is night now, it is dark everywhere, and you will fall down if you are not careful.

This kind of secluded and precipitous terrain can be described as unique, like a moat, and it is not easy to build a place on the mountain where you can not only detect the movement under the mountain, but also not easy to be easily discovered.

The four fields are silent, if you drive the clouds at this time, you will be discovered by the demons on the mountain, there is no way, you can only find it slowly.

Yaojuan walked forward by a faint light, and not long after walking, the mountain suddenly became foggy, and the mist rose, covering the already faint moonlight, and the mountain became very dim in an instant, gray everywhere, and there was no color, Yaojuan did not dare to go further, so she had to stop.

She thought about it, and planned to recognize a random direction and look for it, but suddenly there was a noise in the distance, and the sound seemed to come from the other side of the ridge, and in this silent wilderness, this sudden sound was particularly abrupt and clear.

She followed the sound, and on the other side of the ridge she saw a group of men and horses, walking in a hurry, and walking strangely towards the hill on the other side.

They are sneaky, not like some good people, she thought about it carefully, and immediately understood that these people should have the same ulterior motives as she did when they came to the mountain at night.

Although she didn't know who they were or what they were doing here, it was certain that they were going to Lei Yuan's mansion. Now that she is trapped here, she can't find a way out, since these people are also going to Lei Yuan's mansion, they have the same way as her, which saves Miaohuan a lot of trouble, she immediately raised her breath and flew towards those people, and followed them incognito.

After walking forward for about two teas, the road ahead became clearer and wider, probably the night was thick, Yaohuan followed them all the way, but she was never found, she was a little anxious, quickened her pace, and managed to go around to the front of the queue.

Standing in front, sure enough, the field of vision is much wider, she found that a few miles ahead, is a wide flat land, the flat land is crisscrossed, the houses are staggered, the surrounding grass and trees are luxuriant, lush, white stone and green forest, the spring water is secluded, the mountain flowers are like a brocade, the scenery is beautiful, in the rolling mountains, like a paradise.

Yaojuan looked at the palace city surrounded by a number of houses, although it was brightly lit, but it was still a little blurry, and she finally found it, she was overjoyed, shook off everyone, and flew forward.

She bypassed the large and small houses in front of Miyagi, went straight to the city wall, jumped on the city wall, and observed carefully.

In the high wall of the palace city, there stands a palace garden, which is about dozens of hectares wide, among which the palace is majestic, the golden splendor, the flying pavilion is chonglou, the Zhumen cuidong, shining.

Yaowan took out the black handkerchief and covered her head, climbed onto the roof, leaned on the roof and looked carefully, and when she saw two carved dragon pillars standing in front of the door of a temple, she quickly leaned over.

She jumped lightly from the roof, stood in front of the palace, and when she looked up and saw the "Tai'an Palace" on the vermilion lacquer plaque, the corners of her mouth slanted upwards and flashed in.

Tai'an Hall is the place where Lei Yuan deals with the government affairs of the mountain, it is the most magnificent palace of the mountain, the front of the palace is majestic, the middle stone steps are carved with the dragon, the royal road lined with the flowing clouds and waves, the Linyu golden que, the jade step Zhu Zhu, the corridor curved threshold, the Huabiao supports the sky, it looks very gorgeous. Tai'an Hall is surrounded by palace walls, the palace wall is against the wall, there are many whale oil lanterns, hanging on the wooden poles of two or three feet long, there is one every few steps, the lampshade is painted with flowers, the height is staggered, bright as the stars.

There were two candlesticks in the middle of the temple, and on the candlesticks were two oil lamps, and the two pinches of flame were dancing brightly, and she went round the candlesticks, and with a little light, she turned up in the temple.

Time passed little by little, but Yaojuan never found what she was looking for in this huge palace, she flashed her thoughts, and suddenly thought of her previous experience in the Demon Capital King City, and hurriedly ran up, desperately pushing the gold seat, and the seat still did not move.

She shook her head, and was about to turn away when a loud thunderous sound rang out in the air.

This sound obviously did not come from the palace, and she tilted her ears, feeling that the source of the sound should be in the direction of the mountain gate.

Not long after the sound disappeared, there was a commotion outside, and the surroundings of Yaohuan were filled with noisy shouts, hurried footsteps, and the sound of a group of women and children crying, outside the temple within the temple, it was like two worlds.

She didn't know what kind of farce was going on outside, but she could probably guess where the riot outside came from and why.

She thought of the group of people she had met on the mountain before, they were really not good, and she found that she was in danger, she quickly calmed down, she thought about it, Yu Yu and Lei Yuan were fighting outside the Demon Capital City, and most of the people who came from outside were sent by Yu Yu to pull out Lei Yuan's foundation, since this place has become a battlefield where the two sides are fighting, then she is a person in the god realm to stay here, I am afraid that there is nothing good, thinking of this, she hurriedly raised her steps and walked outside.

No one outside the hall noticed her existence, the people in the palace dressed as waiters lifted the objects in their hands one after another, fled in all directions, on the corridor, cups and plates were messy, wine and food and various objects were scattered on the ground, some of the people who were eager to escape crashed into a pile, some stepped on the wine and food on the ground and fell into a mess, in short, there was chaos outside.

She avoided the fleeing people and quickly left the palace and walked in the direction of the mountain gate.

Yaojuan just went out of the palace gate, but found that she had no way to go, and those people who came to the mountain with Yaojuan pressed to the palace in black, and surrounded the entire palace tightly, the water was impassable, and all corners were strictly guarded, and she wanted to go out without being discovered, it was impossible.

She found a place on high ground and stayed on it, carefully observing the movement outside the palace.

In front of interests, there is really no so-called righteousness of the monarch and ministers, brotherhood, as far as she knows, at this time, Lei Yuan is taking more than half of the troops of the mountain to fight with the royal army of Yu Yu outside the demon capital, and the rest of the people on this mountain are all old, weak and sick, and they have no ability to resist, if the people outside attack it, this place will become a huge slaughter field, killing each other, what kind of shocking scene will it be when the time comes?

There seemed to be still troops in the palace, but the number of people who came was several times that of them, and Mi Jiao was a little anxious when she thought that a fierce battle would take place in front of her.

All the guards stood on the high wall, confronting the enemy troops outside the palace, the generals on both sides were all young men, the general on the mountain was a strong man, and the leader on the other side, looking at Bai Jing Sven, was a little more bookish and a little weak.

The man standing on the city wall held a long sword, looked at the angry man opposite, and spoke first: "General Sun, we have been separated from the Northern Regions for a long time since thousands of years ago. ”

The man who led the way was Sun Gao, the second prince of the Changshi Mansion, who greeted him with a smile and said politely: "What General Nan said is that after the Northern Regions parted, we have not seen each other for more than 3,000 years. ”

Nan Ying raised his finger and pointed at the black demon army behind Sun Gao, and said in a deep voice: "General Sun brought so many people, and he came to our Luzi Mountain at this time and went straight to the palace, could it be that he wanted to come and catch up with me?"

Sun Gao smiled very deliberately, and then said: "Don't hide it from General Nan, this general came here on the orders of the king." ”
