Chapter 41: The Disappearance of the Sandy Land of Yunxi
The morning sun is unusually hot and dry in the desert area, and on the border of Erlan City, the weather is often sand and rocky, and the sky is full of yellow sand.
It's just that on this day, there is no flying sand and no rocks.
On the sandy ground of Yunxi, there is a blood-colored field, withered plants, and red bird corpses are all over the field.
King Xuan stood under a tall dandelion in a purple robe, his eyebrows grim. Queen Yesa wore a colorful cloak today, and her face was buried in a white scarf, so that no one could tell how she was feeling at the moment.
In the sky, the clouds that used to be white have all turned blood-colored today. The sudden extinction of the red bird seems to herald an ominous future.
Prince Yunluo loves the Red Lady Bird the most, and in his Star Moon Palace, there have always been two red and white Red Birds. They live in the Star Moon Palace, which is their home. Usually, when Prince Yunluo is fine, he likes to feed them with some white stones from the Yunxi Sandy Land. It's just that from today on, in this huge palace, there are only these two left in the Xingyue Palace.
The collective death of the red bird hit Prince Yunluo very hard, he avoided all the people, went to the lookout tower in the Yunxi sandy land alone, and stood on the top of the tower alone, looking at the red bird with corpses all over the field under the watchtower.
At this moment, Prince Yunluo was in tears. As he wept, white snow fell from the sky. The arrival of snow is mixed with a cold wind. This snow is the first snow in 300 years, and it came suddenly and just in time.
When the wind was in the air, Princess Lan Lun appeared at the entrance of the Yunxi Sandy Land. Her eyes were particularly blue on this day, her expression was sad, she seemed to have a premonition of something, but she seemed to be unsure. She didn't want to see the miserable situation in front of her, so she stretched out her hand, and a gust of wind blew between the heavens and the earth in an instant, and this wind took away all the red birds on the ground, and also took away everything in the Yunxi Sandy Land.
"Child, why do you do this?" said Queen Yesa as she walked up to Princess Lan Lun and asked her softly.
"Queen Mother, let the wind take away everything in front of you!"
"But it's a paradise that you once had!"
"I've grown up and don't need it anymore. Princess Lan Lun tried to wipe away the tears that had slipped from her face and started walking towards the lookout tower in the distance.
She knew that her brother should be in there at the moment.
The tower is made entirely of white glazed sand, and its architectural style resembles a bamboo shoot that rises to the clouds of the heavenly realm.
There are one hundred and eight windows in the tower, and each window is engraved with ancient paintings from the Fengtang period.
These paintings are ethereal and exquisite, jumping out of the glazed windows.
When Princess Lan Lun was young, she often played with her brother under this observation tower.
She likes to climb the stairs inside the tower, while he likes to stand on the top of the tower and watch the wind and rain.
He likes to stand on the top of the tower and have a bird's-eye view of everything, the unique prosperity of the entire Erlan City in the desolate desert.
In particular, the red birds of each evening are like a dancing cloud, covering the sky and the roofs of buildings in patches on the skyline of Erlan City.
Their existence is like a flowing painting on the skyline, natural and natural.
Princess Lan Lun walked alone to the bottom of the tower, and she looked at the watchtower that reached into the sky, and her heart was gloomy.
At the entrance to the belvedere, a red fish scale glows faintly and clings to the ground.
Princess Lan Lun picked up the fish scales, looked at them carefully for a while, and put them in her sleeves.
Then, she walked step by step towards the top of the tower by holding on to the burgundy stone railing.
When she walked a hundred and one steps, the demon who had been sleeping in the crystal purple jade was not happy. "What is the princess doing? ”
"Kick the tower, I'm going to climb to the top of the tower. The princess gasped with tears on her face.
"Why doesn't the princess use illusions, and when will this climb?"
"I want to tire myself out so that I can forget the pain in my heart at the moment. ”
"Is it because of the death of the Red Bird?"
"Yes. ”
"Isn't it okay for the princess to use illusion to recreate an illusion?"
"No, it doesn't feel the same anymore. Princess Lan Lun clutched her chest, coughed lightly, and sat down on the stone steps.
Mo Shao was a little worried, and he urged his true yuan to float out the crystal purple jade.
"Princess, get out of here, don't climb any more. Mo Shao bent down to help her up, she raised her eyes to look at Mo Shao, and was stunned.
The demon young man in front of him looked like he was in his twenties, wearing a black robe, about two meters tall, and his hair was snow-white. His face was pale and spotless, except for a black mark just below his neck.
If you don't look at that mark, his appearance must be unique in this world.
Princess Lan Lun turned her face to the stone window outside the tower, and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you couldn't come out of the crystal purple jade?
"Because I feel uneasy. Mo Shao put his hand on the wall behind Princess Lan Lun, and reached out to eat a black bat attached to the wall into his mouth.
"Why are you so disgusting?" Princess Lan Lun pushed him away and ran towards the stone steps above.
"Disgusting, do you know that if I don't eat something, I'll be wiped out at any time?" Mo Shao wiped the blood on his mouth and asked Princess Lan Lun.
"If that's the case, you'd better hurry back to the crystal amethy!"
"I want to go back, look at the sky outside!" Mo Shao pointed out the window, but saw that the sky outside had all turned purple.
Princess Lan Lun ran to the window, and she was frightened by what she saw.
"Is this going to happen?" she asked.
"The sandy land of Yunxi is gone, and this watchtower is about to disappear, if you don't get out of here quickly, you will disappear with the watchtower. ”
"How do you know?"
"Because I'm an uncertain prophet!"
"Nonsense, I don't believe it. Princess Lan Lun said as she used her illusion to fly towards the top of the tower. "I'm going to go to my brother and get him out of here. ”
"Hurry up, there's no time, don't linger in this belvedere. Mo Shao was anxious in his heart, and stretched out his arms to chase after him.
"No, I'm going to leave with my brother. Princess Lan Lun couldn't listen to Mo Shao's words, and at this moment, the lookout tower began to shake violently, and a white opening appeared in the sky outside the window. In an instant, the entire watchtower was absorbed.
Princess Lanlun, Demon Shao, and the fragments of the Lookout Tower were transferred to another place by the Gate of Time and Space at this moment,—— the Blue City Dungeon.
This is an ancient city that has been abandoned for hundreds of years, and the furnishings inside are still the same as they were hundreds of years ago.
Princess Lan Lun and Mo Shao fell on a dilapidated stone jar together, and Mo Shao fell to his mouth, and his mouth was full of blood.
Princess Lan Lun fainted, and one of her legs was broken. After a few hours, her leg was so swollen that it began to ache sharply, and she struggled to sit up.
Mo Shao had been sitting beside her, and half of Mo Shao's face was blue and purple. He looked at Princess Lan Lun who woke up and said in surprise, "I thought you would never wake up again." ”
"Where is this?"
"The dungeon, a dungeon of a country that used to coexist with Erlan City. ”
"Didn't you say that if we didn't leave the belvedere, we would disappear from this world, and why are we still in Blue City?" Princess Lan Lun was puzzled.
"Who knows? Do you want to disappear from this world?"
"I don't want to. ”
"Thank goodness then. ”
"You're not going back to Crystal Amethy?"
"It's been so long since I came out, and I haven't died, it seems that this unwarranted disaster through the gate of time and space has changed my physique. ”
"What do you mean?"
"It's that I can walk freely in the mortal world. ”
"My leg hurts. Princess Lan Lun lowered her head and looked at her left leg, which was soaked in blood.
"I'll take a look!" Mo Shao lowered his head, he tore open the curved skirt on Princess Lan Lun's legs, and found that Princess Lan Lun's left leg was obviously skeletally misaligned. "I've broken a bone, I'll help you!"
"Will you?"
"Of course it will, people who practice martial arts don't often break and dislocate, and you don't need to find Lang Zhong for this little thing. ”
"Okay then, you tap. Princess Lan Lun closed her eyes and clenched her hands.
Mo Shao laughed, got up and moved a big stone from the straw pile not far away, and put it beside Princess Lan Lun, and then she put Princess Lan Lun's legs on the big stone, pulled her hands together, and closed them again.
"Are you alright?" Princess Lan Lun opened her eyes.
"Well, okay. Mo Shao patted the dust off his hands and pointed to the ground. "You can come down and walk around. ”
"Why doesn't it hurt?"
"I'm good at my craft. ”
"I thought you were going to kill me. Princess Lan Lun stood up, shrugged her shoulders, and walked forward with two steps. I found that my left leg, which was still in pain just now, was as good as ever. "Mo Shao, you're really powerful!"
"Of course, you forgot that I am the king of all medicines, and I am still an antidote artifact. There is no poison in the world that I cannot cure, and there is no disease that I cannot cure. ”
"Yes, I forgot that. Princess Lan Lun looked at the dungeon and asked Mo Shao, "How do you know so much about everything here?"
"This, I don't want to tell you. Mo Shao walked over to a white stone cabinet, caressing the stone cabinet, and muttered in his mouth. After about a stick of incense, the stone cabinet suddenly opened automatically. In this stone cabinet, there was a living person lying inside.
"Who is she?"
"Empress Xiao. ”
"My grandmother, why is she here? Isn't she supposed to be in the royal ancestral tomb in Erlan City?"
"That ancestral tomb is empty, and the real Empress Xiao is actually in the dungeon of Huaixian Kingdom. ”
"Why?"
"Four hundred years ago, there was a legend about the blue blood. The people of Erlan City know that whoever gets the blue blood wins the world. Since then, the king of Erlan City, your grandfather Ba Khan, and the king of Huaixian City, Ye Lixuan, have begun to plot secretly, and they both want to marry Princess Xuan'er, who has blue blood, so the real war starts with your grandparents. Mo Shao said briefly, as if he was recalling the past he had personally experienced.
