Chapter Eighty-Nine:
According to the news that the Red Peony has returned, the Demon Clan will attack Coldwater City again in three days.
When the empress's edict arrived, Jinxiu and the others also felt that the pressure had decreased a lot. It's just that the reinforcements are not coming now, and the defense in Coldwater City can't be slackened because of this.
After inspecting the various defense points in a circle, Jinxiu went to the Northern Qingyu Western Turkic City.
The atmosphere here was much more solemn than the one he had seen some time before, which made him feel a little puzzled.
Yun Yan was not in the main camp but went to other places to patrol, and after listening to the words of the young general next to him, Jinxiu did not follow him to find him, but chose to wait for the other party to return in the main camp.
Waiting, waiting until the twilight of the near future to wait for the return of Yunyan.
His expression was not very good, as if something tricky had happened. When he saw Jinxiu, he eased up slightly, and he didn't say anything, just asked straight to the point: "The young city lord is here today, but what is the important matter?"
I don't blame him for asking, in fact, because as far as I know so far, the last destination of the demon clan is Cold Water City, and Jinxiu stays there most of the time. Only occasionally do I return to the Western Turkic City when I need to.
Yun Yan didn't have any dissatisfaction when he asked such words, he was a person who knew proportion, and naturally he also knew the truth of focusing on the overall situation. In fact, the last time the demon clan attacked Cold Water City, he specially selected some of the cultivators who stayed in the territory of Beiqing Yu to assist, but he didn't expect that the final result would be so tragic.
He guessed that there might be some big changes in Hanshui City when Jinxiu came here today, and sure enough, he heard the other party talk about the fact that the demon clan would commit another crime in Hanshui City tomorrow.
Yun Yan was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then he asked again: "The young city lord is here at this time, but he needs Bei Qingyu to transfer troops to Cold Water City?"
That's the question he can think of right now. After all, he had just experienced a war that almost wiped out the city, and he still knew the news that there were not many people in Coldwater City. It is definitely not enough for the demon clan to reoffend those people, and it is not particularly surprising that they will borrow troops like Xiji City. It's just that although there is a distance between the two places, it is not very far, and the full march can be reached before dawn tomorrow, plus there are cultivators on both sides who can bring ordinary soldiers to and fro, so it is not a problem.
The only problem is that the comings and goings of cultivators are nothing, but those soldiers in the Western Turkic City are not from Dafu but from Bei Qingyu, and the two generals stationed in Hanshui City may be relieved to let them in?
Jinxiu didn't know that Yun Yan had already thought of so much in this short period of time, and he said helplessly: "Someone did propose to borrow troops from Xiji City before. As for who brought it up, he didn't say.
Yun Yan didn't intend to ask for clarification, but only raised his eyebrows and asked, "So, the young city lord didn't come this time to borrow troops?"
"Naturally not. Jinxiu shook his head and said, "I just came to remind General Yun that the Demon Clan is not planning to attack Western Turkic City at present, but you can't let your guard down here." Besides, where is Yun Ze, who you said earlier, who succeeded you, now, General Yun knows?"
Yun Yan didn't expect him to suddenly ask about Yun Ze, but he didn't hide it, and said directly: "I received news this morning that Yun Ze has left Luofu Prefecture and will arrive in Xiju City early tomorrow morning at the latest. Didn't the young city lord guess that either the important ministers in the court were forbidden by the demon clan to turn into demons, or Yun Ze was transformed into a demon by humans? Now it seems that the latter is the most likely. ”
Hearing this, Jinxiu asked, "Why did General Yun say that?"
Yun Yan touched his chin and said: "I told the young city lord, Yun Ze has always felt that literati are higher, and martial artists are all reckless men with brute strength and no brains, if he didn't come here voluntarily, according to his temperament, he would have dragged on the road for as long as he could." Beiyujing was at least half a month's journey away from Dexi Ju City, but Yun Ze's visit was at least half the time. ”
When he said this, it was indeed more likely that Yun Ze had turned into a demon.
When Jinxiu heard this, she lowered her eyebrows slightly and fell into deep thought.
The demon clan chose to attack the city tomorrow, and Yun Ze, who is suspected to have turned into a demon, will also arrive tomorrow, will there be any connection between the two?
Jinxiu told her guess to Yun Yan, who habitually touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
After a while, Yun Yan said: "Whether there is or not, if Yun Ze has really turned into a demon, then he can't be left behind." ”
He can understand the mood of the prince of Yunyang who is naturally spoiled by Yun Ze, who is only a child, but Yun Ze has been transformed from a human demon, and now he has chosen to come to the Western Turkic City, so if he wants to do something unfavorable to the human race at that time, it is no wonder that he is not merciful.
Yun Ze's affairs are naturally watched by Yun Yan, although the other party is ordered by the emperor to replace Yun Yan, but the so-called strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake, Yun Yan is the general who has been in the border for many years, not that Yun Ze, who has only been here for a few days, can completely replace his position.
Youyun Yan noticed that Jinxiu could also put his mind at ease, he didn't want Hanshui City to face not only the attack of the demon clan, but also from Bei Qingyu.
Sitting in the tent, they chatted a few more words about Yunze's affairs, and Jinxiu left Xiji City.
When I returned to Cold Water City, I happened to bump into Su Chouyi, who had just come back from outside.
In the past few days, the other party seemed to be going out every day, and Murong and the others only thought that he was in contact with the red peony who was deep in the enemy camp on the instructions of Fu Yang Xianjun, but Jinxiu knew very well that this was not the case in fact.
But what Su Chou is doing, I'm afraid no one knows except himself. Fu Yang Immortal Jun is willing to understand, maybe he can know, but the other party has no intention of interfering in Su Chouyi's own affairs at all, as long as he does the things he arranges well, he doesn't care about the rest.
Jinxiu originally planned to go back to his room directly, and whether he could get a response or not, he said: "The demon clan's attack is imminent, I don't know if General Su has already arranged a situation?"
Su Chou unexpectedly did not leave without responding directly, but stopped after Jinxiu opened his mouth and said, "It's all arranged." ”
Although Jinxiu was a little surprised, she quickly calmed down: "General Su thinks that this time he can also protect Hanshui City from falling into the hands of the demon clan?"
Su Chouyi said without the slightest hesitation: "No." ”
When Jinxiu heard this, she was stunned at first, and then said, "Why?"
Su Chou pursed his lips and said, "Everything in this world is already predestined. Whether it is about to happen or what has already happened, it has been written into fate early. Just as the demon race of the past would fail, the human race of today will also fail. So...... Cycle. ”
"So, is this the reason why General Su has a half-human, half-demon bloodline, but he doesn't intend to help the demon clan, nor does he plan to help the human race?" Jinxiu seemed to suddenly think of something, and subconsciously asked such a sentence.
Su Chou Yi didn't say whether it was or not, but his silence usually represented acquiescence.
Jinxiu didn't say anything for a while, he looked at him for a long time, and asked again without waiting for his response: "Then, can General Su tell me what is the true identity of Fu Yang Immortal Monarch?"
said that it was an immortal, but the other party didn't care about Yiluo Xianzun's entrustment, and he didn't even care whether he would provoke Xianzun because of this, and he didn't care at all whether the human race would perish or continue to survive the invasion of the demon race.
Su Chouyi didn't even respect Yiluo Immortal Venerable so much before, but now no matter what the reason, he is very obedient to Fu Yang Immortal Monarch. He didn't believe that it was because Fu Yang had any weakness on him, but thought that it was something else.
And that reason, the most likely is the true identity of Fu Yang Immortal Jun.
There was a faint guess in Jinxiu's heart, and this guess had already been made when he found out that something was wrong with Fu Yang Immortal Jun before. It's just that at that time, he felt that this guess might be a little unrealistic, and later, as time passed, he felt more and more that the initial guess was correct.
At this moment, I didn't really want to know from Su Chouyi, but to verify whether my guess was correct from him.
Su Chou didn't know what he was thinking, and after a short silence, he asked, "What do you think it will be?"
It's not like he would say it, and with the feeling he has always given people, it's just a matter of answering yes or no when asked.
And now, such a rhetorical question has been asked.
Jinxiu has already got the right answer from this sentence.
Since ancient times, people have felt that those who live in the sky are immortals, and since Fu Yang Xianjun is not an immortal, he can only be a god.
The only god that the people on the other continent have ever come into contact with is just a goddess Mingyue. Although Jinxiu also heard from Shen Yan that the ghost doctor Cangming was actually a god, the other party's temperament was strange, and he had a great grudge against the human race because of the matter of the goddess Mingyue. Fu Yang Immortal Monarch was obviously not one of them, so was it the third god to descend into the world?
Although this one does not have a good impression of the human race like Cangming in Shen Yan's description, it seems that his good opinion is not very high now. Perhaps, at any time, you may lose this kind of affection for human beings.
Jinxiu once felt that it was good that Fu Yang Immortal Jun was an immortal, and the immortals used to be human beings in the end, but they later cultivated into immortals, and in essence, they would still be towards the human race. But he is not an immortal, but a god.
This is not a good discovery.
Jinxiu fell into her own thoughts, and she didn't even know when Su Chou would leave.
The horizon is starting to get darker and darker.
Darkness is coming.
When Hengjia came back from outside, she saw Jinxiu standing alone in front of the shadow wall. In his memory, it was rare for the young city lord to show such a look.
So what he wanted to say finally held back, and stood quietly next to him waiting for Jinxiu to come back to his senses.
Waiting, waiting until the lights are on.
It was Ling Yan on the ninth floor who woke up Jinxiu.
"Young City Lord, there is something wrong with Miss Meng, I have already called Master Young Fu, but he didn't see the problem. Let me come to you to see what the situation is. ”
Meng Fuyao is the person that Red Peony values, if she wants Red Peony to stay in the demon clan as an internal response, then she must not have an accident.
At that time, Murong Qing and Murong both arrived in the courtyard arranged for Meng Fu to stay, and at this time, both of them had points anxiety on their faces.
When Xiu arrived today, the two of them were still talking about Meng Fuyao's affairs.
Seeing him, Murong hurriedly said, "Young City Lord, come and see, why did Miss Meng suddenly fall asleep." ”
Jinxiu doesn't know how to use medicine, but since Murong Qing, who is proficient in medical skills, can't see any problems, he can only let the people in the Xianmen see if he has been caught in the spell.
Jinxiu stepped forward to inspect and asked, "Has Fu Yang Xianjun been notified of this matter?"
Ling Yan hurriedly said: "We went to Xianjun just now, but he was not in the room, and no one knew where he had gone after asking around, and General Su was nowhere to be found...... After all the calculations, the only one who can still see some clues now is you, the young city lord. ”
The three of them are all the highest cultivators in Cold Water City now, and they also know a lot, since those two are not there, they can only find Jinxiu.
Jinxiu didn't feel that she was a helpless choice, and after carefully examining Meng Fuyao's situation, she said, "Miss Meng, this is because of the revenant attack. It's not a big deal. ....... Did she remember something?"
Before the others could speak, Murong Qing spoke first: "Isn't the antidote to the soul of the dead soul just a soul rejuvenation flower born of the same plant? There is no connection to the souls of the dead.
Jinxiu put down Meng Fu's hand and got up and said, "This is not absolute. It's just that in most cases, if you want to contact the deceased, you can only use the resurrection flower, but people's memories and feelings are interrelated, and you never know that your own emotions will be affected by what you see and feel, which will affect your memory. It's just that....... If it wasn't for the Soul Rejuvenation Flower, it could only remind her of some sporadic fragments, and it couldn't make her remember all the things she had forgotten, and it couldn't guarantee what she remembered, maybe it was because Miss Meng recalled something painful that she was stimulated and fainted. ”
When he said this, Murong Qing also nodded: "Miss Meng did faint because she was stimulated. ”
Murong asked beside him, "Miss Ling, do you know what Miss Meng saw before she passed out in a coma?"
Ling Yan recalled carefully, and then said, "Yes." ”
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
