Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Last Stand
One day!
Two days!
Three days!
Three days have passed, Feng Zheng and Song Daoyuan are still immersed in illusions, in the illusions, they are the things they are most looking forward to, they are the people they want to see the most, the cultivation of the two is the peak today, whether it is said that if they can cultivate quietly, they will definitely become the first Feng Zheng in the Maoshan Sect in three hundred years who can enter the Golden Immortal Realm but only break through the Nine Seals and enter the Quasi-Immortal Realm, or Song Daoyuan, who has cultivated to the Nine Seals Sword Dao and reached the True Immortal Realm early, they all have concerns and lust in their hearts, so no matter how good their cultivation is, they will never be able to avoid being persecuted by the Tai Void Techniqueγ
Three days later, there was no morning, since yesterday night, the sky has been pitch black and you can't see your fingers, the rooster has been crowing for a long time, and the world has still not been white.
There is no moon in the sky, there is no sun, there are seven bright lights connected into a line, from red to purple, according to the official requirements, the people of Lingguan Prefecture, each family needs to send a member to represent the family to participate in the ritual of accusing the king of Lingguan, there is no moon, no day, the seven stars shine in the night sky, and the ground is full of fire.
There are a lot of people in the state, Wang Lingguan Temple is not big, so, inside and outside are densely packed with people, in the temple, the high altar originally built for the temple fair has become the altar of Pei Zhen in the Nanlai Academy, in the end, the people of the state are a little confused why the matter of opening the altar should invite Pei Zhen of the Nanlai Academy, because of the decision made by the state government, they also kept silent, only hoping that the festival will be over, and Wang Lingguan can calm his anger.
There are many people in the crowd who were waiting to grab the medicine in the medicine house behind the temple that night, and they were at the scene on the second day, and they said that the murder of the spirit official had long been mysterious among the people, and now they saw that the natural vision has no moon and no sun, only the seven stars shine high, and the vague concept of godliness and the fear of the general environment are added together, making them more pious, Governor Han Hua led the officials and officials to guard around the altar, and the old man Zhang of the temple Zhu was there to organize all the state citizens to line up to donate blood in turn, according to Pei Zhen's requirements, every state citizen needs to religiously drip their own blood in the bowl, so that the law can work, and Wang Lingguan can calm his angerγ
When the last person who came to participate in the ritual on behalf of the family dripped his pious blood, the blue and white porcelain bowl used to hold the blood was just filled, just enough to overflow more than half a drop, and then it was half a little less, the degree of the fly in the ointment, in the center of the high altar, Pei Zhen was wearing a purple gold mask and stepping on a white tiger, appearing in everyone's field of vision, and Bai Sanye, who was in charge of the Nanlai Courtyard, stood next to him.
In front of the high altar, there are 8,652 dolls, each doll has a different name written on it, but the birth date is the same, the people who were assigned to various places to capture the shadow in the Nanlai Courtyard that day are Pei Zhen's right-hand men, including He Sheng, are all highly vigilant around the altar at this moment, from time to time, a conspiracy that is nominally to accuse Wang Lingguan is actually a conspiracy to sacrifice Yin soldiers, which is about to begin.
In the dark sky, the seven stars are aligned completely, from red to purple.
"Come on, drip all the blood of the people of the state on the doll in front. β
"Yes!"
Bai Sanye took the blood bowl from Zhang Miaozhu's hand, walked to the dolls, dipped the willow branches in his hands to dye the blood of the people, and sprinkled them on the dolls.
"One!"
"Two!"
β......β
"Ninety-three!"
"Wait!"
Just as Bai Sanye took the willow branch and dripped it to the ninety-third doll, there was a shout from the temple gate, stopping his movements, and everyone looked over there, only to see a young man with his hair barely tied up and fluttering loosely, dressed in white and with a clean face, standing with his arms crossed at the door.
"Xu Mo!"
"How dare you come alone to die!"
The people of all the states are here, and Bae Zhen and Hanwha naturally won't be the first to choose to kill Xu Mo directly, but that doesn't mean that they won't make a move when necessary!
"Someone, this person is disrupting the rituals, arrest me!" Han Hua immediately ordered.
"Wait, I just want to dedicate a drop of blood to the peace of Lingguan Prefecture City, and I'm also here to donate blood, why does Governor Han have to say that I disturb the Fa?"
"Donate blood, you are not from my Lingguan Prefecture, and your blood will not be used in the Fa. Pei Zhen on the high altar scolded.
Xu Mo sighed when he heard this, "Alas, I originally wanted to be with you and do harmful things together, but as a result, you didn't let me join the gang, in this case, I can only continue to sing against you." Xu Mo said in a stiff tone, "The Dharma you did today is not a confession, I think it is an offense, you did your deeds in the temple of Wang Lingguan under the banner of accusation, and pretended to be Wang Lingguan to kill people, you ......"
"Shut up, come on, take it for me. β
When the governor heard this, he drew his sword and rushed over.
"...... Uproar"
"When the ......"
Xu Mo waved his sleeves, and the knives in the hands of the official were brushed out of their sheaths and hung around their necks, where did they dare to move, standing like a scarecrow, In the past three days, Xu Mo has not done anything else, except for making up his mind to fight to the end with the evil forces represented by Han Hua, the governor of this state, it is to practice the Five Elements Imperial Formula, the first to master the Imperial Golden Formula, and now he is handy, subduing the capture quickly, Xu Mo looked at Han Hua and said, "Governor Han, I don't know if you have ever thought that your actions today will really offend Wang Lingguan!"
"Shut up!"
Han Hua made a move, and two thunderbolts in his sleeve slashed at Xu Mo.
Xu Mo stood quietly, not dodging or dodging, treating it as if it were nothing.
"Ice cave, ice coffin, beauty!"
Xu Mo shouted out six words loudly.
"What are you talking about!" Han Hua withdrew his hand, two thunderbolts disappeared in mid-air, and Xu Mo calmly faced the people of the temple and said, "Everyone, would you like to hear me tell a story?" β
"Stinky boy, disturbing the law is not punishable. Bae on the high altar really planned to kill Xu Mo, but was stopped by Hanwha with a gesture.
Hanwha raised his voice and said, "Come on, let all the people of the state wait outside the temple, or go home, the ritual is about to begin, and no one is allowed to stay in the temple." β
"Hey, hey, don't go, you guys, I haven't told you a story yet, hey!"
Xu Mo is actually shouting and shouting to make a lively, it doesn't matter if the people of the state are not there, fewer people are easier to do, today he is here alone, he is here alone, he is here to gamble, gamble with his own life, if something goes wrong, when he dies, after all, the fewer people see the better, and when all the people in the temple withdraw from the temple, Hanwha asked the state government officials to leave the Lingguan Temple and close the temple door, at this moment, there are only Xu Mo and Hanwha standing face-to-face in the temple, Pei Zhen and Bai Sanye on the high altar, Zhang Miaozhu who burns incense candles below, and the little minions in the Nanlai Courtyard.
"Governor Han, why don't you let me kill him?" Pei Zhen asked a question that was like a fish in his throat and did not vomit unpleasantly.
Hanwha said with a blank face, "Just as you ask me, I also have questions for him, and if he dies, I can't ask." β
Although Hanwha was answering Pei Zhen's question, his eyes remained on Xu Mo, approaching a few steps and saying, "Tell me, what do you mean by ice cave, ice coffin, beauty?"
"Alas!" Xu Mo pretended to sigh and said, "The ice cave ice coffin beauty I am talking about, I am afraid that the meaning of it is very clear to Governor Han, in fact, I also want to say that there is still a fire in that place, which is also the bargaining chip for me to dare to come alone today." β
"What do you mean. β
Hanwha's claws were like lightning, and he choked Xu Mo's throat in the blink of an eye!
However, Xu Mo, who was still greedy for life and afraid of death, didn't even swallow half of his saliva, his eyes, expressions, manners, and posture were all the same, but what changed was his voice, and his voice became threatening, "Governor Han wants to kill me, but the matter of moving his fingers, it's just that when I came, I had already used secret techniques to leave a flame in the ice cave, and that flame was hanging directly above the ice coffin, if you kill me, my body will be extinguished, and the flames will be out of control, then, some ice coffins will be burned, even if they can't be burned, it's okay to damage half a bit!"
Hanwha's face is distorted!
"Of course, even if you don't kill me, I can still use my mind to control the fire to melt the ice coffin and burn the beauty inside!"
Xu Mo added another sentence that made Hanwha completely dead.
His face, even every inch of his skin, trembled violently, he wanted to kill Xu Mo, it was best to break his bones and scatter ashes, but unfortunately, the fact is that not only can he not kill, but he can't even say the slightest threat, he is really afraid that Xu Mo will be unhappy, burn his ice coffin, and burn the beauty he has loved all his life.
"Alas!" Xu Mo sighed, sighing extremely provocatively, "Of course, if you don't care about the beauty in the ice coffin, you can kill me now!"
The actual situation is actually a bit funny, Xu Mo accidentally bumped into the ice cave that night, not to mention the detailed route, I don't know the location, and then go to the ice cave to hang the flame on the ice coffin is just a fantasy, an idiot dreams, and in Hanwha's opinion, it is very different, no one knows about the ice cave except himself, Xu Mo can say it in front of him has surprised him, and what is even more hateful is that he also made up a lie about hanging fire, no matter how shrewd Hanwha is, he can't help but believe it, Hanwha can only sigh, the taste of being threatened is not comfortable, but there is nothing to doγ
"What do you want?"
Hanwha reluctantly spoke.
Xu Mo touched his eyebrows and said, "Actually, it's nothing, first, remove the Tai Void Technique, second, let my friends out, and third, put all the captured shadows back." β
When he said the first two conditions, only Hanwha was listening carefully, and when the third condition was spoken, Pei Zhen on the high altar had a cold face, and cast a look full of murderous intent, Zhang Miaozhu, who was quietly smoking old dry tobacco under the high altar, unconsciously slowed down a little bit in his hand, and Hanwha was one step away, Xu Mo could clearly feel the murderous aura and anger hidden in the other party's chest, and he had to emphasize again with a little timidity in his heart. Governor Han, hurry up and make a decision, you must not think about returning to the ice cave as fast as possible, no matter how fast you are, you can't be faster than my thoughts. β
"Hmph!" Han Hua suddenly made another move, grabbed Xu Mo's neck, and said coldly, "Don't think that what you do can threaten me, that ice cave is made by me with 10,000-year-old ice, and no flame can burn in it!"
