Chapter 221: The Book of the Crane

Xiao Jinan looked up following the voice, and saw Xiao Chenggang standing in front of him, accompanied by Gao Yu and Wei Zhongyang, and he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Minister Xiao Jinan, please see Your Majesty." ”

"Meet Your Majesty!"

His wife Liu Yingluo then knelt down!

Only Xiao Wan'er stared at her in a daze, as if she was looking for something, she looked a little lost, and only reluctantly came back to her senses under the reminder of her father's dry cough, and knelt down and said, "See His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Xiao Chenggang's wrinkled face was much smoother, he had just arrived at Yongle City, the city wall collapsed and was dilapidated, coupled with the shocking sighting of many people's corpses along the way, it was really uncomfortable, I never thought that the first person to meet in the city would be his own courtiers, and he would still salute loyally, he helped up this family of three and said, "Fortunately, fortunately, there are still living people in Yongle City, and I am glad that there are still courtiers in Dachu." ”

"Your Majesty, what exactly is ......?"

Xiao Cheng was just about to ask for details, but Xiao Wan'er said urgently, "Your Majesty, are you with Xu Mo, what about Xu Mo and others, why didn't he come back with you, did he have an accident?"

"Wan'er, don't be rude!"

"Hey!" Xiao Chenggang smiled and said gently, "It's okay, Miss Xiao, you want to inquire about Xu Mo, right, he is with Ma Zhenren Yue Pu and them now, and he should return to Yongle in a few days, don't worry." ”

"I'll be back in a few days, that's good!" Xiao Wan'er muttered to herself.

Xiao Chenggang frowned very unnoticedly, indeed, he said a white lie, and did not tell Xiao Wan'er the true situation of Xu Mo's serious injury, but since it was a white lie, it had already been said, so why should he care about whether it should be or not, after releasing himself, he held Xiao Jinan's hand and said, "Xiao Aiqing, how is the situation in Yongle City now, and also, the living are geometric, and there are no major matters among the officials in the DPRK and China!"

Xiao Jinan's face was solemn when he heard this, and he avoided Xiao Chenggang's eyes as if he had made a big mistake and felt guilty in his heart, and sighed, "Alas, I'm afraid that less than one-third of the people are born in the city, and most of the children and the elderly have not been spared, as for ......"

Xiao Jinan paused and continued, "As for the civil and military officials in the court, some of them died when the white light first hit the sky, and those who survived could not help but panic and ran away. ”

Yes, those who have the ability to escape have run away, although they don't understand why such an overwhelming catastrophe happened, and they don't know where the white light that kills people comes from, but out of instinct, they only feel that they can get peace when they leave the place where the incident happened, that is, the place where the disaster broke out, almost everyone has this idea, even Xiao Jinan will not be an exception, if he doesn't have an official position on his shoulders and responsibilities, I'm afraid he will also become a member of the circle of fleeing with bags.

Xiao Chenggang shook his head and sighed, "Have you counted how many civil and military officials are still in Yongle City?" ”

Xiao Jinan shook his head and said, "I'm ashamed, Your Majesty, I have been hiding with my wife and daughter before, and I just came out this morning, so I can only give a rough idea, and I don't know the details very well." ”

"Alas, I'm afraid there aren't many. ”

As a king, Xiao Chenggang can not understand the hearts of people, especially his courtiers? This kind of catastrophe and catastrophe can be regarded as a great wave of sand, and what remains is brave and loyal, such as Xiao Jinan in front of him, who is washed away, will undoubtedly be classified into the kind of people who are loyal to the country and only have power, wealth, fame and fortune in their hearts.

"Let's go, Xiao Aiqing, go back to the palace with me first, see if there are any major changes in our palace, and see how many people stay there like you!"

Xiao Chenggang patted Xiao Jinan on the shoulder, and dragged him to the palace without the emperor's shelf, and for some reason, Xiao Wan'er looked at their backs, suddenly realized a problem and said casually, "The current emperor is also surnamed Xiao!"

......

In the old site of the Liudao Courtyard, there is a carriage made of broken wooden planks that is parked, it is only a carriage, and it does not rely on horses to pull it, if you want to go, the core power you rely on will be Yue Pu's spiritual power.

Xu Mo, who was unconscious, lay in the carriage, breathing weakly.

The people on the scene are basically divided into two waves, one with Ma Ruixin as the core, and the other with Qiu Jing as the core, this is a decision made after discussion a long time ago, Ma Ruixin, Yue Pu, Qingbei plus Yue Linlang, escorted Xu Mo to Penglai for help, and the other people were responsible for Qiu Jing to return to Rotten Sword Mountain, the Barren Mountain Battle suffered heavy losses, nearly three-quarters of the disciples died, someone had to go back to the mountain as soon as possible to tidy up, otherwise Rotten Sword Mountain would really have a bad foundation.

As for Wang Yan, at first he insisted on escorting Xu Mo to Penglai with Ma Ruixin, and said that he would take this opportunity to visit Jinxian Huo Donghua, but in the end, Ma Ruixin politely refused to persuade him to return to Yongle, not because of distrust, but mainly because there were many small conflicts before, and there was always a feeling of discomfort when doing things together.

Ma Ruixin instructed, "Rotten Sword Mountain is far away from the barren mountain, and it is also the land of immortals, and the construction should not be greatly affected, the key is that the number of casualties among the disciples this time is too much, we have to be cautious, otherwise the century-old foundation of Rotten Sword Mountain may really not be guaranteed, and after going back, give more psychological enlightenment to the disciples on the mountain." ”

"Well, don't worry, the mountain lord. ”

"Okay, then we'll part ways first, and we'll see each other later. Qiu Jing knew that Xu Mo's injury could not be delayed, and if she didn't talk to Ma Ruixin, she said goodbye on the spot.

The Yuan Emperor incident can be described as a catastrophe for this world, even the Maoshan faction of Rotten Sword Mountain is not immune, the luck of Rotten Sword Mountain is that the disciples led by Yue Pu when he went down the mountain are all old people, and all the newcomers recruited this year are left on the mountain, which undoubtedly retains the foundation for the follow-up development of Rotten Sword Mountain, and similarly, this is also the reason why Xu Mo's apprentice Liu Ken did not appear in the barren mountain.

Qiu Jing and the others walked away, and Ma Ruixin and Yue Pu also began to set off towards Penglai Island.

In the ruins of a certain place in the distant Tai'an City, the black and white immortals stand proudly, since the beginning of the barren mountain, they have been inseparable from Xu Mo, and one of the most important reasons is that if Xu Mo dies, the news will be notified to the master as soon as possible, so that the master can choose a new heir in time.

"Alas, let's go, follow them!" the white-clothed immortal sighed helplessly.

"Come on, it's no use sighing. ”

As soon as the black-clothed immortal finished speaking, a line of white light flashed in the blue sky, and when he got closer, the white light manifested into the appearance of a crane, flew in front of the black-clothed immortal and fell, the white and translucent wings flapped, and two lines of words flowed out of the wings, and the black and white fairy eyes went up and down to read the content between the lines, and fell into a short trance.

The crane is the main means used to spread information by seeing the fairy cliff, and those few lines of words are naturally from the master Tianjizi, and the general content is that if Xu Mo is in trouble, he should try to help him get through the difficulties, and when it comes to life and death, if he can't solve the matter, he can take him back to see the fairy cliff.

The meaning of the words was not special, but compared to the original master's orders, it was normal for them to be shocked, before the master meant to secretly observe and assess Xu Mo to see if he had the qualifications to inherit the next cave master of the Tibetan Immortal Cave, but in order not to affect the authenticity of the assessment, he could only secretly observe and not make a move, and now he suddenly turned around and said that he wanted to protect Xu Mo in all aspects, and the gap was indeed bigger.

The white-clothed immortal raised his eyebrows and said, "I really don't understand why Master has changed, has he already learned about what happened here." ”

The black-clothed immortal seemed to be thinking about other things and was a little distracted, and only after a long time did he say, "The nine cages of celestial phenomena on the barren mountain and the nine powerful chaotic immortals collided, and the scope of the impact was so wide that even I have never seen it, Master, his old man's magical powers are vast, and it is normal to sense it, no matter what, as you said, Master's meaning, there is always his reason, let's just implement it." ”

"If that's the case...... "The white-clothed immortal pondered, "Xu Mo is now living and dying, maybe he will die in the next second, should we take him back to the Immortal Cliff." ”

The black-clothed immortal slapped his head and said, "That's right, that's right, take him back to the Immortal Cliff, if something happens to him, it will be inconsistent with the master's wishes!"

......

In order not to delay the time to arrive at Penglai as soon as possible, Qingbei and Yue Linlang combined the magic of the imperial sword flight, carrying Ma Ruixin, who had lost his cultivation, Yue Pu drove the carriage with spiritual power while passing through a flat river, and suddenly two beams of light flashed in front of him, one black and one white, disrupting all their spells, and Yue Pu, who had recovered his cultivation and spiritual power, could not stand it and was taken to the ground by the beam.

"What's going on. ”

"It seems that a very powerful force has passed by just now, and the person who came is not good!"

Except for Yue Pu, who relied on his more advanced cultivation to resist, everyone else felt dizzy and concussive.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm really sorry to stop you just now. ”

Soon, there were two figures, one black and one white, appeared in their sight in a very characteristic greeting, Yue Pu was very keen to set up a precautionary action in front of the carriage, and the three of Qingbei Yue Linlang Ma Ruixin also connected to the human wall, and a desperate posture that would not let you get close half a step was revealed.

Looking at the black and white immortals, Yue Pu could feel a strong spiritual reaction from them, and he expected that his cultivation would not be low, and he hugged his fists and said, "I don't know where the two of you come from, why do you want to block our way, if there is no important matter, I will not be able to accompany you." ”

The black and white immortals looked at each other and smiled, and then the white-clothed immortal stood up and said, "We are the black and white immortals of the Immortal Cliff, responsible for the convening of each immortal appreciation conference, and I came today to take the people in the carriage to the Immortal Cliff, he is very seriously injured, and at present, the whole world is probably only our master Tianjizi can be cured." ”

"Yes, our master will cure him, let's take him away, if you really send him to Penglai according to your plan, maybe he will die of anger halfway through!" added the black-clothed immortal.

Before he could finish speaking, Yue Puyu took out his long sword and asked rhetorically, "Are you black and white immortals?"
