Southern Guchu, Yunmengze.

The mountains and rivers are one color, and the fog is getting farther and farther away.

The reeds and aquatic grasses in the river are intertwined, presenting a unique beauty of the water town.

What is strange and surprising is that the fishing boats that shuttle freely on the lake are long gone, and the fisherwoman who bows her head to pick lotus has also disappeared without a trace.

On the surface of the lake, there are only dozens of red and white figures moving around.

Among the figures are all men in red flying fish suits, each wearing a long knife at their waists, and all in white palace clothes are women, each wearing a veil. Two different groups of people, but they are both from the ancient Chu court.

On the west side of the lake, on the three-story pavilions facing east from west to east, a middle-aged man in a purple dragon robe stood on the top floor, looking down from above.

But the impatient look between his eyebrows from time to time showed that he was anxious at this time.

"It's been a month!How come you haven't even found a trace of the water demon?!No matter what method you use, you must not let the Nine Emperor Sisters find the cave of the water witch co-workers in the Middle Ages first!" The middle-aged man stared at the vast lake below, and his white face, which was originally only slightly anxious, suddenly became hideous.

"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, you've been standing here all morning! Let's go downstairs and rest for a while!" a man with a burly figure in a dark red flying fish uniform standing on the right side of the middle-aged man said softly.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he turned around and went downstairs.

More than a month ago, a water demon appeared in Yunmengze in the south of Guchu as a disaster, and caused countless deaths and injuries to the fishermen around Yunmengze.

According to the few fishermen who survived, the water demon was shaped like a giant dragon, came and went like the wind, with nine huge terrifying heads, and a fishy smell all over its body, and devoured people and animals in dozens of surrounding fishing villages as soon as it appeared.

After receiving this news, a group of courtiers in the ancient Chu Dynasty were extremely excited, and excitedly told Emperor Chu: "Xiangliu! This is Xiangliu! One of the twelve ancestors and witches in the Middle Ages, Gonggong sat under the divine beast!"

The appearance of Xiangliu means that the cave of the Water Witch, one of the twelve ancestors in the Middle Ages, is very likely to be in Yunmengze.

The crown prince of the ancient Chu Dynasty has already died of illness, and the new prince has not yet been established, which also makes the princes and princesses in the royal family lively, and they are vying to ask Emperor Chu for credit.

After some deliberation between Emperor Chu and his courtiers, he decided to hand over the matter to the Jinyi Guard, led by the three princes, and the Snow Phoenix Palace of Princess Taiping.

In the sky above Yunmengze, the wind is clear and the clouds are light.

A luxurious car pulled by three dragons was quietly suspended in the air.

Three feet away from the outside of the car, a man in black wearing a golden eagle mask knelt on one knee above a cloud, while his face was facing down, patiently waiting for further instructions from Princess Taiping.

"After this pair of men and women leave Miaojiazhai, they will be captured alive no matter what!" Princess Taiping in the car ordered the man in black waiting outside after some consideration.

"Yes, Your Highness the Princess!" After receiving the order, the man in black turned into a golden eagle, and after a low roar, he spread his wings and flew to the west.

After the man in black disappeared, An Qin, who was on the other side of the car, slowly spoke: "Your Royal Highness Princess Qiqi! An Ling came to report that the Jinyi guard under the command of the third prince was taking two death row prisoners to Yunmengze Lake at this time!"

After hearing this, Princess Taiping in the car opened the curtain on one side, and the strong mana in the later stage of foundation building worked, and the pupils in the two phoenix eyes disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving only a pair of whites of the eyes looking downward.

Several brocade guards escorted two men in shackles to drive a fishing boat to the center of the lake. The two death row inmates were ragged and ashen. When the fishing boat reached the center of the lake, a brocade guard carrying a death row prisoner on the boat pulled out the sword at his waist and quickly slashed it into the neck of one of the death row prisoners, and immediately blood stained the surrounding lake.

Another death row prisoner was horrified to see his companion begging for mercy in an instant, but he could only watch as he was picked off by the brocade guard behind him, and he fell weakly on the boat in pain.

After everything was taken care of, these Jinyi guards performed their light skills on the rivers and lakes and quickly left the center of the lake.

"Sacrifice!" After guessing a little bit about the reason why the third prince asked Jinyiwei to do this, Princess Taiping sneered. Immediately, she withdrew her eyes, closed the curtain of the car, and then instructed An Qin outside the car: "Let the Third Emperor Brother be busy for the time being!

"Yes, Your Highness the Princess!"

It was already noon when Wuwu and Ruotong arrived at Miaojiazhai.

On the ground in the center of the enclosure, scattered Miao men and women walked on white stone slabs. Men wear short shirts and shorts with blue headscarves, while women wear black or red pleated skirts with silver combs in their hair.

But the doors of the rows of houses on each floor of the huge enclosed house were closed, and it seemed very silent and strange.

Under the careful arrangement of a middle-aged woman wearing a collarless top and a blue white pleated skirt, the two entered two rooms on the second floor to rest.

After nightfall, the lights gradually lit up in the walled house, and the originally closed doors of each floor and room were slowly opened, and a pair of Miao men and women dressed in festive costumes walked down the floor in unison, and gradually approached the white stone henge with strange patterns in the center of the walled house.

After the worry-free pranayama was over, he left the house where he was, came to Sister Ruotong, and silently guarded her. He didn't know what was going on outside, but the bright light of the fire in the window and the dense footsteps in his ears made him aware of the unusual night.

"Bang——, bang—"

Two heavy knocks sounded outside the house where Wu Wu was originally located, and after a while, the knocker didn't see anyone come to open the door, so he moved a few steps forward and walked outside the door where Ruotong was.

"Bang——, bang—"

Two more heavy knocks rang out at the door.

As soon as Wu Wu's mind moved, the wings of the falling red butterfly flying beside him shook vigorously twice, and the other falling red butterfly that stayed on Ruotong's shoulder and Ruotong opened their eyes at the same time.

Seeing that Senior Sister Ruotong's luck was over, Wu Wu turned sideways and stepped forward, and gently opened the closed door.

"Disturb the two immortals for a moment! Tonight is the day of the return of the Holy Sect of our clan, and I also invite the two immortals to move to the first floor to participate in this holy banquet! Welcome the return of the Holy Maiden of our clan!" The middle-aged Miao woman who had entertained Wuwu and Ruotong before was carrying a lantern at this time, and said to the two with a solemn face.

"Yes, the two of us will be there later!" Ruotong, who had been looking at the movement by the door, was the first to speak.

"Then we will wait for the arrival of the two immortals!" Hearing Ruotong's reply, the middle-aged woman retreated.

"I'm tired!" Worry-free gently closed the door and returned to Senior Sister Ruotong's side.

"What a big show!" Ruotong got up from the couch and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"Senior sister—"

"It's okay! Daddy used to be a great favor to the Miao family, and besides, he has spared no effort to protect this place all these years, and nothing will happen! Moreover, I also want to see who this holy woman of the Holy Sect is!"

Carefree sneered, and looked at the senior sister in front of him with an impatient face. The feast hadn't even begun, but he seemed to be smelling the smell of gunpowder in the air of the natural rejection of same-sex people.
