Chapter 2 Ah Jun and Ah Du
In the splendid palace of the Chen Kingdom, a figure was running fast.
It's the old eunuch Li Ying.
He carried a lantern and trotted all the way into the little emperor's study.
It's late at night.
In the study, the candle shadow is shaking, and the flowers and plants outside the window are criss-crossed, like the shadow of a cup bow and a snake.
The little eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting on the side, in the middle of the night, were snorting, rubbing their sleepy eyes, and they were all groggy and drowsy, but they were sick.
And the little emperor on the seat was not half sleepy.
At this moment, he was in great spirits, with a pair of sharp eyes like eagle falcons, staring at a big round, scanning back and forth in a military book written by a famous soldier in his country.
He read quickly, ten lines at a glance, but he didn't swallow dates.
Every word and sentence in the soldier's book was memorized by him after he glanced at it, and it was more firmly remembered than ordinary people who had read it dozens of times.
When it comes to memory, he's almost a genius.
"Well, that's a good point, every step of the way can achieve great things!"
The little emperor occasionally read the subtleties, or there are sentences in the military book that match his own ideas, and he will applaud him.
He was indulging in the war book, but the old eunuch Li Ying broke in at a very bad time.
"Your Majesty, the old slave has something urgent to do with the Emperor!"
The old eunuch Li Ying saw that the little emperor was reading the book of war with relish, and he didn't want to disturb. However, the situation is urgent, the monster, and ran out of the cage, to kill in the capital, the previous time, there were already public grievances, and it was not easy to suppress it, if it came again, I was afraid that it would cause greater waves.
The old eunuch Li Ying had a hard time deciding, so he had to hurry to Bingming Little Emperor and let him make up his mind.
"What's the urgency, let's talk about it!"
When the little emperor heard this, he looked up at the old eunuch Li Ying who was kneeling on the ground, put the military book in his hand aside, closed it, and did not mark the pages he had read.
Obviously, the words of the old eunuch Li Ying swept Yaxing, who was reading the book of the little emperor, and he didn't plan to read it again.
If it is someone else, it will spoil the little emperor's interest, but he is afraid that he will end up, and he will be crippled if he does not die, but the old eunuch Li Ying is not a bystander after all, as the person he trusts the most in this palace, the little emperor has a hundred ways to put the old eunuch Li Ying to death, but there are a thousand reasons not to kill him.
"Back to the emperor, the dead guard who guarded the dark room just now came to report that the monster, it destroyed the cage and went to the city to eat...... Cannibalism went. Shall we send someone to arrest it back?" said the old eunuch Li Ying.
When the little emperor heard this, he suddenly laughed.
Indeed, it is a ridiculous joke.
"Li Ying, I think you are old and confused, you say, we, Chen Guo, who can stop that monster? Wei Tianjun? Leng Qinghe? These people, in front of that monster, it is estimated that they can't last three moves, that is, what kind of old Rongguo Gong Zhen Yuan, isn't it just the enemy of this guy's ten moves?"
The old eunuch Li Ying suddenly felt a chill.
Not long ago, Zhen Yuan, who was almost the number one supreme grandmaster of the Chen Kingdom, was in the position where he was standing, his body was separated, his head moved, and he lost his life.
He was there at the scene at the time, and everything is still vivid in my mind, and once, I had a nightmare.
This Chen Guo, there is indeed no one who can stop that monster!
"But the emperor, if you let it do, I am afraid that the people will be resentful, and the ministers will criticize it, and then it will alarm the fairy court, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to your country!"
A few years ago, the old eunuch Li Ying would say that this matter would be detrimental to his royal family, but now, he has long known the temperament of his master, and he only dares to say that it is his country, he belongs alone, and does not belong to others.
Immortal Garden?
Hearing these two words, the little emperor frowned.
Every time he heard it, he frowned.
The immortal court, which was high up but close at hand, was like a sharp sword hanging over his head, making him uneasy at all times!
He didn't believe what those Confucian scholars, Taoist priests, and monks said about the Compendium, Heavenly Dao, and cause and effect, because those things were still too far away from him, too far away, even if they were true, they were not terrible, because he was not yet an immortal cultivator, and he couldn't feel the power of it at all.
However, the county official is not as good as the current management, but the immortal court is very close to him, the emperor, this mortal, and he can't escape.
He's in chains at every turn!
"Don't talk about it, what about the Immortal Court? The world is so big, can the Immortal Court manage it?"
The little emperor was hard-mouthed, but he was still a little in awe in his heart.
"Li Ying, how did you hide from the sky and the sea last time, how did you hide from the world and the sea this time, tomorrow, I don't want to hear any rumors about this matter, any report from the minister about this matter, do you hear it?"
The old eunuch Li Ying looked at the little emperor's face and didn't dare to say anything.
He knows very well the little emperor's domineering nature, no one can change the decisions he makes, and if you don't complete the things he orders, then the head on the neck will also be in danger.
The old eunuch Li Ying respectfully agreed, and was about to step back and go to the head of the dead guard to discuss the matter, in order to suppress the matter in the fastest time.
But the little emperor's hand was another move, and he stopped him.
The little emperor's expression was serious, and he suddenly smiled a little, as if he had thought of something happy.
He said: "Li Ying, go to Xuan Lengqing and enter the palace first." β
When the old eunuch Li Ying heard this, he was a little dumbfounded.
He knew what the little emperor was going to do, but he remained silent, responded respectfully, carried the lantern, and hurriedly went out of the study, and went outside the palace to declare Leng Qing and enter the palace.
The little emperor looked at Li Ying, who was leaving in a hurry, and the smile on his face was even worse.
That monster, out of the customs, proves that the immortals in the capital have left, and he doesn't have to scruple anymore.
That monster is now almost used by him, willing to die for him, now he is in power in the country, what he wants to do is not to live in a country, but to go out and fight out, and the Wu Dynasty next door is his best target.
He asked Li Ying to find Leng Qinghe, just to discuss the matter of sending troops to the Wu Dynasty.
"It's time for that monster to taste the flesh of those children in the Wu Dynasty. β
The little emperor sat on the chair and suddenly grinned.
Then he picked up his book of war, which he didn't plan to read again tonight, and he flipped a page at random, and read it again silently.
"Let's eat a little more tonight, after a while, some of them will be busy!"
He muttered.
......
In the capital, in the dark alley.
An extraterritorial Heavenly Demon the size of a house fell to the ground like a heavy hammer, slamming into the roof of a tiled house.
The tile house was trampled under its feet and collapsed, and in an instant, it was in ruins.
In the ruins, there was a cry for help, but because the person's voice was a thick adult man's voice, the extraterritorial heavenly demon didn't even have the idea of lifting the big stone and broken tiles to see what was going on, and directly slapped his front paws heavily and slapped it vigorously at the source of the sound.
Large rocks and broken tiles turn into powder in an instant.
The voice calling for help also disappeared completely, and he died.
But the surroundings did not become quiet, on the contrary, they became more noisy.
With this roar, the people in the alley woke up from their sleep and went out one after another to see what was going on!
When they looked up and saw the extraterritorial heavenly demons the size of their houses, the timid ones fainted on the spot, and the bold ones could no longer control themselves, tearing and screaming for help.
Countless voices came and went, and this alley, which was full of ordinary people, broke the quiet and peaceful scene of the past in an instant, and fell into the purgatory of the earth.
"Roarβ"
The Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon roared, lowered his head, and pulled a child's body from the hands of a pair of parents.
It took his arm, tilted its head, and then threw it upward, bit it, and tore it, and the child was instantly swallowed into its belly, and reduced to a piece of flesh in its belly.
"Ahh
"Ahh
When the panicked people saw that the monster opened its mouth and ate people, they were so frightened that they ran in all directions, and they all rushed out of the alley.
Due to the suddenness of the incident, some children were separated from their parents.
Ah Jun and the little boy were rushed away from their parents by the crowd of panicked escapes.
Their parents, carried forward by the crowd, while they themselves fell down in the alley, and the little boy injured his ankle, and the pain was so painful that he could not stand up or run, so the two of them had to hide behind a stone monument to hide from the monster.
"Wow-"
The little boy cried out because he was afraid.
His personality has always been cowardly, and during the period of following his father to sell baked cakes, he failed to develop a good face and courage, and he is still as stupid and introverted and shy as before.
"Ah Du, don't cry, it's okay, if you don't cry, it won't find us. β
Ah Jun is a wild child, although he sometimes loves to bully people, but at the critical moment, he is still a child king, for the little boy Ah Du, he knows that he is timid, so he can't help but comfort him.
"Uh-huh-"
The little boy agreed, but he still sobbed because of the injury on his foot, because he was separated from his parents, and because he saw his playmate who was still playing with yesterday being swallowed by the monster.
But he eventually controlled himself and stopped sobbing.
"Shhhh β
The two little boys, petite in stature, hid behind a stone monument that was just big enough to cover their entire bodies.
The Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon was behind the stone tablet, and if it looked with its eyes, it couldn't see that there were two people hidden behind the stone tablet.
But this is only speculation about a monster from the perspective of a mortal.
The Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon not only sees with its eyes, but also hears with its ears, smells with its nose, and senses with the skin of its whole body.
Either way, it can easily spot the presence of both of them.
"Bang-"
As soon as its front paws swept away, it immediately brought a gust of wind, and the stone tablet standing on the ground was easily torn away like a piece of paper torn by hand.
"Bang-"
The stele hit the wall of a house and split into two pieces, and Ah Jun and Ah Du, who were hiding behind the stele, were also exposed.
The two petite bodies and the house-sized Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon stared at each other, just over a foot apart.
The Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon overlooked the two trembling little guys, but Ah Jun and Ah Du's brains were blank.
They had all heard the storyteller's words.
At this time, they all especially hoped that a hero would fall from the sky and save themselves from the hands of this monster.
"Wow-"
The little boy couldn't hold on and cried.
"Wow-"
Ah Jun finally couldn't control his emotions at this moment, and he also learned from the little boy Ah Du, crying loudly.
And at this moment, a streamer of light flew from outside the sky, and in an instant, it had arrived.
He stood between the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon and the two little boys, facing the mountain-like monster, standing proudly, without flinching or timidity.
This figure is none other than Lin Xiuran.
