Chapter 186: The Plague
Yin Luo didn't expect that this ghost girl's head could change back and forth, and she didn't know what to say for a while. She thought about it for a while, but buried Wantong's matter in her heart, pushed open the door and walked out.
Jin Yu was right, Shen Tu was waiting for him outside Half of his body leaned against the pillar, and when he saw her coming, he immediately straightened up and looked at her with a smile, and said, "Senior sister." β
"I may be late, have you been waiting here for a long time?"
She hurriedly walked up, feeling that she was really confused, she had drunk so much yesterday, and she didn't expect that drinking would delay things. Where would Shen Tu blame him, even if he waited for a long time, he wouldn't tell her, and quickly explained: "Soon after, I just came to you and came out, and now it's just too late to go to the heavenly court." Anyway, the two of us weren't there to see them compete. β
Yin Luo didn't bother to guess the truth of Shen Tu's words, anyway, he was busy and said that he was not busy, and he said it for a long time, it seemed that everything was going with her, she seemed to really understand what others meant when they said that Shen Tu was "pure in heart", not only pure and good, but also a little stupid.
Qing Xuan was still sitting in his place, but this time he rarely didn't sleep, but instead watched with his eyes open as those people on the Tianlu Nine Star Platform competed. But if you look closely, you will find that he is just stunned, and he doesn't know what he is looking at, anyway, he doesn't give any face. Among the five examiners, only Ziyang Zhenren and Wuqu Xingjun were watching the competition seriously, and they also expressed a few words of discussion from time to time. Si Ming had already known the ending, so he drank tea boredly and chatted with Gou Chen. Gou Chen only glanced at it a few times at a critical time, and the rest of the time he was chatting with Si Ming, so he simply changed positions with Qing Xuan and sat directly next to Si Ming.
After Gou Chen looked at Qing Xuan for a while, and after making sure that he was really not sleeping, he said with some surprise: "Why are you so energetic today?"
Qing Xuan replied lightly: "I asked my two apprentices to come over to discuss some things. Otherwise, I wouldn't be interested in watching these boring competitions at all. β
Gou Chen suddenly replied as if he had a big understanding, but he heard Si Ming say leisurely: "Tianzun, today will not be boring at all." β
When Qing Xuan heard this, his brows gradually furrowed. After all, as soon as he says the word "interesting", then the day basically doesn't want to pass peacefully, which has almost become an unwritten rule. Gou Chen glanced at Si Ming quite impatiently, and said, "Can you say something about people?" You can just say whether Houqing will come or not, so that we can make some preparations, so that no one will be hacked to death by him at that time." β
Gou Chen actually had the courage to fight with Hou Qing, and he was one of the people who sealed him back then. It's just that now in the Heavenly Court, he can only wear out his courage and become a person who deliberately runs faster than anyone else when he encounters things.
Si Ming glanced at Qing Xuan with a smile, and his gaze slowly fell back to the Tianlu Nine Star Platform. He wanted to say, "He's already here," but for some reason he didn't say a word, just picked up his tea and took a sip.
If he could beat Si Ming, it is estimated that half of the immortals in the heavenly court would come to beat him, just because he knew everything and didn't say anything, which was really annoying. But his strength is so unfathomable that no one except Hou Qing dares to make a move with him and snatch the Book of Heaven, which is why he has been the commander since ancient times.
"That's right, Tianzun" Si Ming quietly changed the subject. He took out a bronze mirror from his arms, crossed Gou Chen and handed it to him so openly: "Your mirror." β
Qing Xuan stretched out his hand to take it as usual, but he felt a little shocked in his heart. Fu Xi will choose it as an intermediary, which is enough to show that his relationship with Fu Xi is extraordinary. He can know the origin of all the immortals in this Heavenly Court - except for Si Ming, he seems to be an ancient person.
Gou Chen looked even more confused, wondering why the two big men were handing over a mirror. But he only glanced at the bronze mirror, and he quickly realized that something was wrong, and couldn't help but say loudly: "Kunlun's handwriting?"
He said it cryptically enough, and others couldn't see anything unusual. Qing Xuan nodded slightly, signaling that he was right.
Gou Chen stopped talking, and stopped guessing. Years of instinct made him pretend he didn't see anything, and took a piece of fruit to gag his mouth.
"Tianzun, is today the day for a female official in your palace to compete? If I'm not mistaken, she lost last time, and if she loses again today, there really won't be a place for her in this longevity. β
Qing Xuan couldn't help but think of the night when she asked questions, although in the end she didn't answer anything, but it was too abnormal for her to do this, but she just said lukewarmly: "It doesn't seem to be my business." If she enters the sushi extension, I will just change another female official in the palace, and it will be no different from me. β
As soon as he finished speaking, as if he realized something, he stood up and walked down. Si Ming glanced at it, and sure enough, he saw Shen Di and Yin Luo, shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Tianzun's biggest weakness is only the two of them." In all my time with him, I had never seen him care so much about anyone. β
Gou Chen, who didn't have any apprentices, just said softly: "He shouldn't have apprentices." β
Indeed, the more powerful a person is, the less he seems to be able to get contaminated with the world. Emperor Ziwei and Yuqing Zhenjun are two good examples, they simply live directly in the Shangqing Realm, and there is no way to disturb them, it can really be said that they are cut off from Hongchen, ruthless and unrighteous. And Qing Xuan seems to be the most humane Not only did he accept apprentices, but he also accepted two at once. However, he had made it clear that Shen Tu was a closed disciple and would not accept a third one, so the covetous heart of others gave up.
Yin Luo and Shen said, "Master." β
Yin Luo didn't know why, he felt a little apprehensive in his heart, probably because he let Hou Qing take his skin the day before yesterday. She didn't know if anything had happened between Hou Qing and Master, and if he suddenly asked a question she didn't know, how to prevaricate.
After Shen Tu said this, he looked at the unpredictable fighting scene on the Tianlu Nine Star Platform, and said with some hesitation: "This is the competition of the Heavenly Court, if I come, is it a little indecent?"
Qing Xuan smiled slightly: "Who dares to say you?"
That's just as well.
He added, "I have to stay here now until the contest is over, and I have something to tell you." It's okay to come and play, but someβ"
Qing Xuan paused, remembered Si Ming's words, swallowed the word "boring" hard, and continued: "There may be nothing to look at. If you want to go anywhere, no one will stop you. β
The two of them glanced at each other, and Yin Luo naturally said, "Let's stay here and watch the competition." I'm afraid the identity of the god is not easy to walk around. β
"Then come with me. β
Qing Xuan wished that the two of them would come and accompany him through this seemingly boring Immortal Ascension Conference. Letting him be the examiner is a complete waste of a position, but I am afraid that when the time comes to select the list, he will only write a few names and report them with fewer strokes.
Yin Luo and Shen Di followed Qing Xuan forward, watching the passing immortals all make way for them, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, the more she walked, the more she felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked: "Master, we-sit in the stands?"
Qing Xuan said: "You have already asked this question the day before yesterday. It's better to stand down and see what's interesting, it's better to be clear from above. β
Yin Luo immediately shut up, for fear that he would ask something that he had already asked.
Although there are other immortals in the stands, although the two of them are in high positions, they are the youngest, and it always feels inappropriate to sit here. Especially when she sat down, Yin Luo also found that Si Ming looked at her with a smile, which made her feel even more weird. Si Ming must have known that it was Houqing who came that day, but he was afraid that he didn't know what he said to him, so he cheekily pretended not to see anything and began to look around.
At this time, Shen Di let out a "huh" and said, "Isn't that person Zhiqin?
After thinking about it, Shen Tu understood her purpose for wanting to enter Ensushi, and stopped talking. He didn't know what the war situation was in those two countries, only that more and more names were ticked off in the book of life and death every day, and that there were many people in the Xuangu Kingdom who were not killed by others, but died of plague.
He only found out about this matter yesterday, and many of the new ghosts said that they had a sudden illness, and at first they were only slightly unwell and weak, and within a few hours, they were hot-headed, unable to breathe, and died directly. He had never seen this kind of plague, but he still made the black and white impermanence pay a little attention, but none of them came so far, as if it was really an ordinary plague.
But things won't be so simple, because the only people infected with this plague are people from Xuangu Country. He began to wonder if the water had done something, such as Oriqin.
Si Ming's gaze naturally moved to Shen Di's body, he seemed to be hesitating to tell His Royal Highness the Ghost King about this matter, hesitated again and again, and still said, "Do you feel that there is anything wrong with those ghosts?"
None of the others answered, because they knew that it was said to the gods. Seeing Shen Di's already knowing gaze, Si Ming secretly sighed that this child was smart, and continued: "You have to be careful, you can use the book of life and death if necessary. β
No one dared to disobey Si's words, because he never spoke nonsense. Shen Tu's voice froze, and he felt that things were becoming more and more unusual, because in addition to cutting off other people's birth and death years, the book of life and death can also change people's lifespan, or bring the dead back to life.
