Chapter 34: Licheng Snow (16)
I was awakened night by night, parting under the cold star.
To this day, Arrow remembers the words of his gentle queen mother on her deathbed.
“...... There are clouds in ancient books: Kun is big, I don't know how many thousands of miles, and Peng is so big, I don't know how many thousands of miles...... Ah Luo, you remember, you must go to Licheng, the queen mother will be waiting for you there. ”
"But, Queen Mother, Kunpeng is a legendary divine beast, does it really inhabit Yunyu Peak?"
I can't remember my face clearly, and the gentle woman said with a smile, "Of course, Kunpeng has risen to 90,000 miles, Ah Luo, you will do the same in the future." ”
At that time, the battle of Qiyu had not yet begun, and he was not the only prince, the queen mother with a mysterious background, only hoped that he could be an idle prince.
Who knew that less than a year after the death of the queen mother, the battle of Qiyu suddenly began, and it was this battle that changed everything.
The cousin died in battle with his father, Xiqu was sent to the Jin State as a hostage, and Beiyin died in the Chu State for unknown reasons...... All those who are connected to him by blood have suffered misfortune.
Now, the country of Qi is dead, he has lost everything, and martyrdom is his only thought.
However, after he finally made up his mind to make such a decision, he was caught in the Yuzhou military camp.
After the demons were repulsed, the poison he was going to take was also taken away.
According to the decree of Yuzhou, he will be burned at the stake.
It is true that the speed of the herald of the Yuzhou Prefecture is so fast, but it is only one day, and the outcome of Emperor Qi Shao has already been decided.
Before the news even reached Licheng, before anyone knew about it, Emperor Qi Shaodi would be burned at the stake.
Arrow spent only one night in prison, and that night he met the storyteller of Wuling, who had captured him.
Dressed in a black and white witch robe, his face was pale, and he wore a circle of purple bells on his head, which were carved with intricate patterns, which did not look very common.
Before he became a young emperor, he had heard of this storyteller in Wuling, Yuzhou, telling all kinds of strange stories.
Nanfeng looked at Emperor Qi Shao, and in the eyes of Emperor Shao, there was no longer the clear color he saw outside the Taiyuan Tower a few days ago, and there was already a dead silence, as if he had accepted his fate.
There was also silence in the dungeon, and the guards outside the prison didn't seem to see the storyteller in prison.
The young emperor lowered his head, looked at the blood marks on the shackles, and asked in an undetectable voice, "Seeing Lone's appearance, does Mr. have anything to say?"
The storyteller squinted his eyes and asked, "You can obviously stay in Taiyuan Tower, and that Liuyun Young Sect Master has also blessed you, but why do you still come to Yunyu Peak to die?"
"The country of Qi is dead, and living alone will only add chaos to the people, not to mention that Yunyu Peak is the place where Lone's mother is buried...... Lone would rather die at Yunyu Peak......"
In the end, there was a hint of crying in Arrow's tone, but his expression did not change at all, as if sadness had penetrated deep into his bone marrow.
"It seems that your wish will not be fulfilled, and tomorrow you will be burned at the stake. ”
"Then you're here to humiliate Lone?"
"How can you think so. Nanfeng squinted and smiled, "My generation is here to tell you about your mother." ”
"What?" Ah Luo looked up suddenly, meeting his gaze, but he couldn't understand the meaning behind his smile.
"My generation has only one request, tomorrow on the execution ground, you take the jade slip of your entourage and throw it to the ground. ”
"Lone's retinue?" Ah Luo frowned and asked in surprise, "Is it Dongge?"
"She worries about you no less than you, but he is much luckier than you, although the first jade slip has been given to others, but he is lucky to receive a gift from Lord Changsi. ”
Nanfeng's expression distorted for a moment, and he covered half of his face in the candlelight shadow, "It's really jealous of my generation!"
Jealous of Dongge?
What would happen if Dongge didn't have the jade slip?
Ah Luo didn't dare to think deeply, and was silent and didn't speak.
"Young Emperor, aren't you going to know? about your mother's past. Nanfeng persuaded him, "Anyway, you will die tomorrow, and what happens after you has nothing to do with you, so why should you die with regrets." ”
Ah Luo retorted, "Anyway, Gu is going to die tomorrow, it's useless to know, the queen mother didn't tell Gu about it back then, and Gu doesn't want to know now." ”
Although he didn't know what happened to Dong Ge, what was the jade slip, why would he be safe with the jade slip?
However, leaving the hope of survival to the living is the way the queen mother taught him to live in the world.
Although it is not suitable for him to become an emperor, it also shows that his mother never thought that he would become an emperor from the beginning.
"Your Majesty, why are you so stubborn?" Nanfeng changed his title and continued, "Have you ever heard of Kunpeng? ”
"Would you be so kind to tell Lone?"
"No, of course, there is a price to be paid. ”
"Lone won't do things for you. ”
"It's okay if you don't help my generation, then let my generation get paid in another way, what do you think?"
Arrow frowned, "In what way?"
"If you get information in this life, you will double the reward in the next life. ”
"In this world, there really is an afterlife?!"
"Naturally. Nanfeng smiled slightly, "Generally speaking, mortals will not have an afterlife, because their souls are too cowardly, and they will be dissolved in Lethe. ”
"However, if you get the flying cloak of Lord Changsi, our generation will help you pass through Lethe and preserve the memories of this life. ”
Flying cape?
Ah Luo thought of the accessories of the woman in blue, and there was indeed a blue shawl.
Is that the Flying Mantle?
Sounds like something special.
He asked, "...... Aren't you afraid of heaven's punishment for doing this?"
Nanfeng said, "Then you don't have to worry about it, since my generation dares to do this, there must be a way to save your life." ”
"What will be the price of the lonely man in the next life? ”
Ah Luo wanted to give it a try, but he asked uneasily, "If you deceived Lone, wouldn't Lone get nothing?"
"How so?" Nanfeng said with a smile as he opened his eyes slightly, "I haven't figured out what the price to charge will be, but it will definitely be with your consent. ”
"My generation swears in the name of the Yunyuan Realm, and there is no half-word of falsehood in what I say to you. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Luo was taken aback when he saw the lines of three silver leaves appear on the left side of his face.
He said, "This is my oath to you, and if you break it, you will be punished by heaven." ”
Ah Luo stared at him for a long time, and said slowly, "Then please tell me what kind of story my queen mother has." ”
At the same time, the top of the cloud fish peak.
Chunyang and Jiang Li, who were left behind by Tang Jun and Changsi, were cleaning the sacrificial platform.
Looking at the corpse of the demon clan that was annihilated by the spiritual fire, Jiang Li asked, "Lord Chunyang, what is this magic circle used for?"
Chunyang replied, "This is a magic circle that can break the Kunpeng seal set by the ancestor and forcibly contract with it. ”
