Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Moon Candle
Hundreds of sergeants armed with war blades stood nervously in front of the ruined temple.
Looking at this sudden appearance of the demon-level beast, I was at a loss.
The cold wind blew in and rolled up the snow, and the quiet and oppressive atmosphere made people even more nervous.
Zhang Mian was secretly annoyed at this time, and the information provided by his henchmen was wrong, and he also blamed himself for coming recklessly.
At this time, I don't know how to end.
Poof, poof, two strings of rapid fart sounds, breaking the quiet and oppressive atmosphere.
Everyone present was in an uproar, thinking that they were too nervous and hallucinating.
looked left and right blankly, and saw that everyone around him was like this, and they all looked at Xiao Hei blankly, who was still majestic just now.
Xiao Hei wagged his long tail casually, turned his head and smiled humanly at the moonlit night, revealing the white and sharp fangs in his mouth.
A clear thought came into the mind of the moonlit night, and it was Xiao Hei who apologized and told the moonlit night that the abdominal pain just now was convenient and it was a little late.
Feeling the people around him looking at him suspiciously, the moonlit night's face was blue and red, and the hot stinging sensation spread all over the body.
The moonlit night is also secretly blaming himself for doing too much, and the radish has been mixed too much recently, and it is considered self-inflicted to have such a situation now.
"Little Black Breakout!" Moonlit Night hurriedly ordered.
I saw Xiao Hei immediately rise, the wind and thunder barbs on his hooves flashed, and the electric light flashed on the black horses' hooves, mixed with unparalleled might, and slammed into the ground.
The earth cracked, and a huge semicircular shock wave, mixed with flying snow, swept outward, and the sergeants were swept down one after another, and those who approached were directly knocked away by the demon yuan, and people spurted out large pieces of blood in the air.
Yueye turned over and got on the horse with Ye Wuzhi in his arms, and the group of people quickly broke away from the encirclement and rushed towards the east gate of the city.
The cat also broke free from the crowd and followed behind the crowd, taking charge of the break.
At this time, in addition to Zhang Mian, who was not swept down by the demon yuan, there were also two five hundred masters behind him.
One of them asked eagerly, "General, don't you ask for reinforcements to pursue you?"
"It's too late to chase!" After Zhang Mian groaned for a while, he spoke again: "This matter is closed, and after returning to the camp, it is said that it is to encircle and suppress the bandits that have been rampant recently."
If Wu Anjun knew that I was greedy for merit and let go of the young master of the night wolf, you and I would not be able to save my head. ”
"Yes, sir. The two five hundred lords replied.
Then he shouted to the soldiers who fell to the ground and wailed: "Collect the troops and return to the camp, and give them all to Lao Tzu." After speaking, he kicked the soldier next to him a few times.
The moonlit night rode on the back of the little black and rushed towards the east gate, and the speed was extremely fast.
The people behind him also raised their speed to the extreme, and they arrived at the east gate of the city in a short time.
The defenders of the east gate were loose, leaving only four soldiers to guard them.
After hearing the sound of hurried horses' hooves, several people opened their sleepy eyes, and when they saw the people rushing towards this side at great speed, they were all startled, and hurriedly raised the spears in their hands.
A soldier who looked like a soldier shouted in a trembling voice: "Come! Whoever is coming, it is getting late at this time, if you want to go out of the city and come back tomorrow." ”
At this time, the moonlit night was worried that the Qin army's reinforcements had arrived, and he wanted to get out of the city quickly, so where did he have any scruples and shouted: "Death to those who stand in my way." After speaking, the long sword in his hand pointed forward, and the shocking iron in the labor cave in his right hand turned slightly, and a fierce determination burst out from the moonlit night, which was overwhelming.
Usually, the veteran ruffians who saw their own civilians acting as prestige and blessings, and when they saw the Qin army, they lowered their voices and fled.
Xiao Hei screamed twice, as if mocking the unbearable night wolf soldiers, but two golden rays of light shot out of his eyes, shooting towards the city gate with bursts of destruction fluctuations.
Boom, the city gate, which had been in disrepair for a long time, was blown open and collapsed.
The moonlit night took the night silent and went out of the city first, followed closely by Ye Qianxun and Tiehu, and disappeared into the night in a few breaths.
Everyone ran hundreds of miles in one breath before stopping, and they were all relieved to see that the Qin army did not chase after them.
"My lord, this place should be safe, and I don't think the people of the Qin Kingdom will be chasing after me. Yachihiro spoke calmly.
"Chihiro! everyone will call me Gongzi in the future, although I have to pass on the jade seal of the country to recognize the lord, but I have not been officially canonized and announced to the world, and naturally I can't be called the emperor, and now the country is shaking, and the destruction is a foregone conclusion, I am now just a lost dog, I can save my life in the troubled times, it is still unknown, everything can only be discussed and waited for the opportunity in the long run. Moonlit Night said with a sigh.
"Don't be arrogant, I am willing to follow Gongzi to the death and save the people of Li from fire and water. Ye Qianhiro replied in unison.
After everyone talked again, the moonlit night took out the guiding astrolabe and continued to move forward according to the position pointed by the star map, the direction was the capital of the Night Wolf Country, Eternal Night City.
Along the way, everyone wore stars and moons, and did not stop, and finally arrived at the location marked on the star map after a month, less than a hundred miles away from the city of eternal night.
After several searches, they finally found something strange under a dead tree.
At this time, the sky was still full of snowflakes, just because the Holy Dragon was destroyed, causing Yan Huang to cry snow for more than two months, and he actually jumped over autumn and went directly to winter.
Legend has it that the Emperor of the Four Directions is in charge of the four seasons of Yan and Huang, the Eastern Emperor Li Er holds the Immortal Mirror in the spring, the Southern Emperor Wu Hui holds the Suiren Diamond in charge of the summer, the Western Emperor Shakyamuni holds the Wanbao bowl in the autumn, and the Northern Emperor Houyi holds the Sunset Bow in the winter.
The four emperors each hold a supreme treasure, in charge of the four seasons of heaven and earth, and change the pool every three months.
With a wave of his left hand, the snow under the dead tree was dispersed, revealing the groove under the tree.
After some comparison, the guiding astrolabe in his hand is inlaid in it, and the astrolabe rotates and flows.
The dead wood was rejuvenated and grew green leaves, and a green rush came out, enveloping everyone and disappearing in place in an instant.
When everyone reappeared, they were already in a dilapidated palace, and everyone looked around, and finally saw that a thin old man was doing above the main hall.
The old man was as thin as wood, his wide imperial robe collapsed one by one, his exposed hands were unusually shriveled, and his dim eyes were blue and yellow, as if the soul fire might be extinguished at any time.
The moonlit night and the old man looked at each other from afar, both of them looked calm, and they couldn't see any emotion in each other's eyes.
The thin old man said lightly: "You are here." ”
"It's coming to me. Moonlit Night spoke without hesitation.
"Still leaving?" asked the old man blandly.
"Where are you going if you don't go?" replied Moonlit Night, as if complaining.
There was a long silence for a long time, and finally he couldn't hold it anymore, and he took a few steps forward and burst out two fingers with his left hand, pointing at the thin old man and said, "Bah! Are you the old man of the moon candle?"
The old man looked at him calmly. "Exactly. ”
"Do you know that in the past, the people were bullied, the people were not happy, and the country outside the palace was mournful?"
Yue Zhu still had a calm face and slowly got up, raised his hand to untie the loose imperial robe, revealing his dry upper body.
I saw that the moon candle's shriveled upper body had seven black and red nails nailed into various places on the upper body.
As the moon candle breathed in and out, blood overflowed, but it was instantly sucked into it by several nails, and the wound was black and red, which was disgusting.
Everyone clearly felt that the seven nails were constantly absorbing the vitality of the moon candle, and if it was changed to an ordinary immortal, I am afraid that it would not be able to weigh seven days.
Seeing the miserable state of the moon candle to leave, he didn't know how to speak, obviously the moon candle was telling him to leave, and he couldn't do anything about the moon candle.
Behind him, Jing Ke asked loudly: "Since you have no power to return to the sky, why don't you make plans to set up a new monarch earlier? It's better than a hundred years of depression and the people's grievances disappear!"
