Volume 20 "One Hundred Thousand Zhu Yan One Hundred Thousand Blood" Chapter 13 The true pearl is secretly knotted, although the shape is different, it is also sorrowful
The year that has passed is longer than any year in the life of the South Sea Storm Goddess.
"Perhaps...... I heard that man's voice that day, and I shouldn't have turned back......"
On the shore of the deserted clear lake, the lonely goddess often thinks so.
Before that day, Shiokei had many fantasies, but beside such a lonely empty lake, even more thoughts would be diluted into thin fantasies by the boundless lake, and eventually drift away like the ethereal clouds on the lake. And after that day, the calm and long time suddenly swept like the tide of the sea, and the night and day changed in a hurry before I knew it, and the heart that I thought was as quiet as stagnant water suddenly set off thrilling waves, making me restless every day. After that, the second princess of the South China Sea, who originally lived in a corner like a quiet shadow because of her dark face, suddenly wanted to know all the noise that happened outside her narrow lake and mountain.
Such an unprecedented interest, which had been temporarily silent after a heart-rending day, woke up like a dream after a recent horrified discovery, and made her set her eyes there again.
There is no doubt that the focus of the eyes of Xiying, the second princess of the South China Sea, the goddess of storms, is on the young man called "Zhang Xingyan".
For this uninvited guest back then, her feelings were very complicated. For Xiying, this person was the first outsider to break into her forbidden place in many years, and it was also the first man in many long memories to treat her mottled face with sincerity outside of her immediate family.
Maybe others can't imagine how grateful a young Ai woman who has been secretly hurting herself for her appearance for a long time and is afraid to see people would be so grateful for such sincere treatment with a different surname. Even in many later trance moments, the second princess of the South China Sea, who seemed to outsiders to have a special identity and a noble position, had the illusion of being willing to give that person a slave several times.
Since then, the Dragon Princess of the Forbidden Lake, who has never cared about the world, began to pay attention to all the affairs related to "Zhang Xingyan" at home and abroad.
It's just that if she doesn't pay attention to it, I'm afraid it's really her life, Xiying never expected that the distinguished guest on her own brother's seat at the beginning would later become the big rival of the South China Sea! Before knowing this, her third brother who was close to her flesh and blood also set up a so-called "clever plan" and dared to use extremely dangerous herbs to harm her opponent, but in the end, she let his own sisters and sisters swallow the bitter fruit!
If you think back to that person before, there are still a lot of sweet throbbing, after that creation and making people, every time I hear everything about "Zhang Xingyan" again, even just the name, Xiying's heart is a lot less sweet, more thrilling. Later, many things happened to the boy. Frozen Luofu, relatives and friends died, rushed to the crown in anger, pointed at Tiannan, cut off no branch Qi, went down to the clouds to close the sacred tree, broke Yanxia, came and went in the army like nothing, and gradually forced her third brother Shuihou, who seemed to be a man of great talent and had no spare son, to be cornered - such a character, even in her mind, should be a big hero and a big hero!
However, she saw the other side of the matter from the news that Nanhai Bochen returned.
According to the third brother's god general, who specializes in spying on military intelligence, the young man who has been bluffing a lot lately is actually just a scoundrel in Raozhou City, Middle Earth. He was born in the lowest mountain villagers, and since he was a child, he wandered in the streets and wells of the city, except for a few days of school classes and was not illiterate, and at other times he was basically in the lowest three aquaporous wine shops.
According to the reliable investigation of the right-hand man reported to Xiying, this sobering statement has a long history of doing bad things, and it can be said that since he was sensible, he has done mischief, cheating, eating, drinking, gambling, and no matter what, it is so bad that it can no longer be vicious. According to the investigation of many of them, for this sobering statement, almost no one in the local people of Raozhou is not affected by his poison!
At that time, when she heard this, the elegant and dignified goddess turned pale and did not want to listen to it any more, but it was evident that the god who had sent the message was well trained, and that the message had already reached him so deeply that he himself was so jealous that he would not be comfortable not telling the truth. Therefore, the god general did not notice the subtle expression of displeasure on the heroine's face at that time, and continued to gush:
β...... I also want the princess to learn that the last place of refuge for this thief before he has time to enter the Qingmen of Deluofu Mountain is actually a record building! Although the last general noticed that someone had deliberately covered up this matter and spread all kinds of excuses among the people nearby, it was obvious that Zhang Xingyan was a villain who was so angry that he was a good man's family, and he was committed to the building of the house, even if he was a musician in the name, he would definitely have no good intentions, only for women! Princess, a rare opportunity to show loyalty to the princess, the god will spit and be impassioned:
Therefore, in the proclamation prepared by the last general's staff officer, he strongly asked Lord Long Ling to add this article: A person like Zhang Xingyan, who has done a lot of evil deeds, intends to attack the South China Sea, obviously with a low style and bad motives. The creatures of all the tribes in the South China Sea, even if they are not for the Dragon Palace, not for the great righteousness, but only for your beautiful sisters and families, they should rise up and resist without mercy!"
Speaking of this, the god general of the retribution was obviously proud, and the prayer that was like a river of words stopped for a while, just to get the praise of the princess Yukou - who knew that after waiting for a long time, but there was no response, he had to lick his dry lips, and prepared to continue to pray:
"Princess, andβ"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he suddenly heard a slightly trembling shout:
"Needless to say. β
"Princess?"
"Get out!"
β...... Yes!!"
The god who was ready to make a sycophancy walked away, not knowing what was wrong with his wonderful and true report just now. In addition to being staggered, he was also secretly frightened:
This legendary storm goddess, the sharpest god in the South China Sea, really lives up to its name!
The God, who has said it a thousand times, and who even believes himself to be true, is gone. After he was gone, many messages that were like a thunderbolt from the sky were left to the silent goddess. As a result, this kind of clear distinction between good and evil, and the opposite of each other, were tangled and entangled in Xiying's heart, and they collided fiercely, so that although she had practiced for thousands of years, she couldn't tell which of all these things was true and which was false.
So these days, Xiying's heart often seems to have two diametrically opposed souls constantly changing shifts.
Sometimes the second princess of the South China Sea feels that the current situation of the enemy is like a tired egg, and she should abandon her personal feelings, put the safety of her family and country first, and stand on the same position as her father and brother. She should actively prepare for Meng Zhang's final decisive battle strategy. If that's all there is to it, it's very simple. But more often than not, there is another soul on duty in her body - that awakening words, I don't know how many cars and baskets I heard his negative evaluation, but somehow every time I thought about him in my heart and intestines, all kinds of clear and clear evaluations of good and evil turned into the same image in the end:
In the rain and fog that day, in front of the clear water and silver sand, the heroic young man in white turned around, looked at himself with a pair of eyes as bright as the stars in the sky, and said gently:
"In Xia Shangqing Zhang Xingyan, dare to ask the name of Fairy Fang?"
...... Every time at this moment, the lonely woman who has dreamed for thousands of years is fascinated, trembling slightly, until she burst into tears!
In any case, the second princess of the South China Sea, who has always seemed to stay out of the limelight, finally decided to join the war at the last moment of the war.
What many people didn't expect was that in the last mobilization of the South China Sea War, this seemingly delicate woman only used a sad look that seemed to be sad and happy, and just a few words that wanted to stop talking, and encouraged all the dragon warriors in the storm ocean of the clouds and gods. Almost everyone was encouraged to wait for the bloody battle that was coming.
All the South China Sea soldiers who had entrenched themselves on the Divine Fury Reef with the Order of the Shadow knew that this brewing fierce battle, if the South China Sea wins, it will be the starting point for a counterattack that turns defeat into victory, and if it loses, it will probably be the last decent battle for the ambitious South China Sea Dragons.
And the master of the South China Sea storm, the god of the furious sea, is naturally not as weak and cowardly as he looks. Before the battle horns of the Four Desecrated Water Tribes and the Xuanling Demon Alliance sounded, a net had already been laid in the naturally sinister Divine Fury Reef, just waiting for the enemy to come to their death.
For this, the commander of the crusade army, Si Desecration Old Dragon Jun, is not unaware.
"Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles", the more he reaches the last moment, the less he will relax his detective on the enemy's situation.
According to his years of observation, although the sea spirit with outstanding divine power in the turbulent ocean of the South China Sea, the first is the South China Sea Water Marquis, and he is indeed famous, but if you count the people with real supernatural power, it is the second princess of the South China Sea who lives in a simple place.
He, a distant grandniece who has just recently rejuvenated, should be able to use the legendary "God's Domain" with mana - although it is still a little far from the supreme realm of "God's Domain, I am the only one", but it has already allowed her to perform the Pang ** technique that is only beneficial to her own side according to her own wishes in the vast sea area that stretches for thousands of miles in the stormy ocean!
I have to say that the old god monarch is really like a god, and those four blasphemy Xuanling warriors who are beginning to launch the final onslaught against the South China Sea Dragon Clan are suffering from such an expected poison!
The sea of divine wrath, which had always been dark and torrential, now seemed to have a spiritual surname, like rage, and the storm that roared to and fro had now strengthened a hundredfold. The sea was boiling for thousands of miles, and the deep blue water turned black, swelling with turbid foam, shattering into pieces in the sharp reef like wolf teeth.
As soon as those crusading warriors stepped into the rushing water, the boiling waves suddenly sank, and countless bottomless whirlpools suddenly appeared, swallowing up those creatures who rushed in in an instant. Before they could see the shadow of the enemy, they slept forever at the bottom of the sea, and for many of the four blasphemous warriors who bravely marched forward, this was their first and last time.
In front of such a never-ending, life-driven turbulent whirlpool, the original skillful Shangqing "Solid Wave Solid Sea" technique and the extremely brave Xuanling Demon Rider also failed for the first time this time. No matter how the moral mages of the Shangqing Palace performed their spells, the thousands of rapidly rotating vortices were like poisonous eyes that never closed, always glaring fiercely at all the creatures who dared to enter the sea lightly.
In the dark bleak wind and bitter rain, the giant thunder pass, one of the few remaining floating cities in the South China Sea, also floated in the sky, and the strange city like nine turntables and incense merged with the strangely shaped dark clouds in the sky, forming a huge cloud whirlpool, echoing with the thousands of whirlpools below, shrouding the whole area in gloomy darkness. Before the persistent enemy attacked again, countless lightning flashed in an instant in the dark cloud pass, and lightning thunderbolts fell from the sky, blasting above the heads of every charging general, blowing their small bodies to pieces, never missing, and extremely accurate.
In just half a day, the losses of the attacking side exceeded their previous days of continuous battles, and the four desecrated mysteries, who had been well planned, found it difficult to organize any decent battle in such a strange sea full of reefs and whirlpools. For many warriors from inland rivers and grasslands, it is a problem to even gain a foothold in such a ferocious storm. The typhoon blew sideways, the huge waves smashed like a mountain, and the front and back were covered with a whirlpool of blood, and the huge number of decisive battle teams were divided by the natural dangers of the ocean.
Even so, in the midst of the stormy waves, the various tribes were fighting their own battles, struggling to penetrate deeper into the reefs. Because for them, the current battle is a must-fight, and no matter what the cost will be, the perverse water marquis must be subdued as soon as possible!
Under this concept, the soldiers were still in high spirits, listening to the charging drums singing their war songs, and rushed into the battlefield without hesitation, rushing from the sunny blue sea to the stormy dark waves, and instantly experienced the transition from day to night.
After paying unprecedented casualties, they gradually figured out the subtleties of the increasing and weakening of the whirlpools, and finally began to advance long enough to meet the defenders hidden in them and start a more normal battle.
It's just that, even so, those demon warriors who are the main force of the attack are still difficult to gain a foothold on those reefs with sharp teeth but extremely slippery. The Xuanling Demon Clan from the Eight Desolations of Middle Earth, only the bird spirits soaring in the sky can barely help, but they are often struck by the ubiquitous lightning volley, and fall to the sea with a wailing sound.
Faced with such a situation, all the four desecrated water tribe warriors knew that they had unconsciously become accustomed to the powerful and rapid impact of those unfamiliar demon spirit war horses, and once they were lost, the entire attack was greatly reduced.
So, for those South China Sea Dragon Army, who have been suffocating after retreating, it is finally time to raise their eyebrows.
With the help of the Psychic Sea Vortex of the Shadow Goddess, the South China Sea Dragon Army finally regained its self-confidence and became morale like a rainbow again. Many of the remnants of the defeated army suddenly found themselves not so vulnerable. With the familiar reef terrain, and the help of the magical vortex of the second princess, who only hurt the enemy, and hide in the reef group to wait for the moment, they become elusive to those enemies: no matter what, if they raid the most embarrassing enemy at the most favorable time, the results are often unbelievable even to themselves!
As a result, in the offensive and defensive battle of the Divine Fury Islands, which may be the last battle, the allied forces of the Four Desecrated Water Tribes and the Xuanling Demon Spirit fought very hard in the first three days, while the defending side still had unprecedented successes.
When these rare good news were passed on to the water marquis and the dragon king like snowflakes, these high-ranking and powerful people who were not easy to change their moods and emotions were as happy as those civil and military generals. While rejoicing and smiling, Meng Zhangshuihou, who was finally relieved, did not forget to thank the second sister who had made great contributions, and attached his father's words of commendation to encourage her to continue to help kill the enemy.
In this joyful atmosphere that seems to be celebrated by the whole world, the secret lake where the goddess who made the key contribution rests is surprisingly quiet.
In the past few days of battle, Xiying has not been to the front line a few times, because the Dragon Domain is close to the Divine Wrath Ocean, and she knows every inch of sea water and every foot of reef in that sea area. The second princess of the South China Sea, who has deep divine power, only needs to take steps in the underwater secluded realm where she lives, and she can set off a storm hundreds of miles away. Therefore, for most of the day, Xiying still curled up under the sea soul flower tree, facing the indifferent lake water leisurely.
Speaking of which, for her, the Storm Goddess, those shrimp aunts and mussel girls who were waiting outside didn't dare to disturb casually before. However, now the situation is tense, and the dragon princess in the mountain and lake area has become the pillar of the South China Sea Water Tribe, so even if it is disturbed, some important battle reports have to be reported. Of course, because most of these urgently transmitted battle reports are now documents for success, those who dare to take them to Xiying Yulan are naturally only the big victories.
"The princess shouldn't be unhappy about the paperwork of the great victory, right?"
Every time I crossed the mountains under the sea and went to the secluded lake to pass the documents to the princess, the second princess, the closest maid Zhenzhu, would think so. Although he has always been recognized by outsiders as the cronies and attendants of the second dragon girl Xiying, he has not been able to meet his master head-on for many years. The delicate princess often smelled the sound of her own light water, and would ask for the reason, and then ordered her to leave quickly. She didn't look back the whole time.
However, it may be that the situation is tense now, and every time Zhenzhu goes to report the war to Xiying in the past few days, this woman who is always as quiet as a stone sculpture actually turns her face for the first time, and every time she looks at her and listens carefully to every word she reads to Wen Mu. Whenever this happens, Zhenzhu can't help but think:
"Princess...... How can this be called ugly! According to the true pearl, even the most ethereal and beautiful celestial immortal in the clouds is nothing more than that!"
Naturally, as an idle maid in the Dragon Palace, Zhenzhu has also heard a lot of gossip over the years. She used to be suspicious, but now, she can finally confirm that the rumors are indeed rumors with ulterior motives. Because, in the Dragon Palace outside this lake and mountain, the most beautiful women in the South China Sea gathered, but according to Zhenzhu, the most beautiful person among them is not as good as the princess in front of her!
Confirming this, Shinjo was very happy. After all, she is the master she is waiting for, and she is also the noble princess in the South China Sea. In the past, these rumors and rumors were also very uncomfortable in her heart like a lump.
However, in addition to such joy, Zhenzhu somehow has some new worries.
"Princess, she ...... Is it joy or sorrow?"
The careful Hui maid found that in the past three days, whenever she listened to the "great victory" she had reported, the beautiful owner frowned like a green feather, listened attentively to her every word, and then bowed her head slightly to show her gratitude, and finally showed a faint smile that seemed to be happy, and raised her hand to signal her to go down - all this should be normal, but it was the faint smile at the end of each time that made Zhenzhu feel very confused.
Why is it that in that shallow smile, Yoxiu's eyebrows are still frowning like crests?
In this happy smile, it seems to make Zhenzhu feel a little bit of bitterness!
"Huh?"
"Why is the princess not happy after so many victories......? Could it be that the current victory was just a flash in the pan? But it doesn't look like it...... Strange!"
The immature maidservant could not understand the pain in her master's heart, and after a moment of cranky thought, she felt that she was too careful, and then returned to the outside of the mountain, looking as usual, and continued the conversation with her best female companions, and continued to discuss the young gods and generals who were making great achievements in the not far sea, and arguing about which of them was the most heroic.
It was not until the fourth day that the waves here and the bloody rain there passed leisurely, and it was not until the fourth day that it seemed to become a little different.
After the first three days of arduous and death-like temptation, the crusade army that had been stagnant finally organized all its strength, and the huge fist that had been secretly raised was quietly raised, and it was about to deal a severe blow to the enemy blocking in front of them!
Ignoring the various arrangements for the army's actions, let's talk about it again, after listening to the old dragon monarch's careful arrangements and the secret orders specially issued to him, this Sihai Hall Master who has repeatedly performed miraculous feats is standing side by side with the princess of the four desecrations at this moment, and the two of them have a rare solemn expression. Behind the two of them are their own elite tribunes.
At this time, the awakening words and the spirit ripples, as well as the place where everyone's eyes were looking, were the black haze and wind and rain that spread across the boundless world. Soon, they'll charge into it and deal a fatal blow to the stubborn foe hiding within!
