Chapter 240: The Four of Them Perished

Sima Zhen froze on the ground, bowed his head, and remained motionless after saying a few words. Emperor Longping was stunned and asked Gonggong An to step forward to help him, but found that his body was stiff. A generation of deceitful grandmasters died like this.

Ye Xingyuan looked at the lantern that had been burned to ashes and was silent. Sima Xu's death made him feel that the wind and rain were coming, and the admonition of this person before his death made him even more shocked.

This world is still very dangerous, but unfortunately there is no chance to go back to Mars. Ye Xingyuan complained in his heart, and he was even more worried about the unfortunate fate in the future.

Emperor Longping sighed lightly, "Sima Zhen is loyal, and since he died for Sheji, I will not pursue his crimes." Ordered the body to be returned and buried. Tai Shi Ling's position was temporarily taken by his younger brother. ”

Everyone is dead, and the four murderers found by Sima Zhen will not live for about a few years, and it seems that there is no need to investigate him for leaking military secrets.

The emperor turned his head and said to Ye Xingyuan gently: "Your meritorious service last night was not small, but this matter is confidential, and it is inconvenient to give a public reward, so I will write down your merit first." In the coming day, I will discuss this matter with you again. ”

Now that Sima Zhen has died, the four murderers are far away, and only Ye Xingyuan knows what he has seen and heard best. No matter how much Emperor Longping neglected his administration, he couldn't ignore this kind of catastrophe, and he admired Ye Xingyuan very much, and was willing to consult him privately.

Ye Xingyuan said modestly: "The students are only shallow in their studies, but Your Majesty has sent them, so they should do their best." ”

Emperor Longping nodded, "You must not leak this matter to others." Glimpsing the future, it is a loophole in the destiny of heaven, if it is publicized, the heavens will change, and the backlash will definitely not be able to bear it. ”

Predicting the future is a taboo thing in the first place, so throughout the ages, those who are good at calculating and knowing the future often do not die well. Therefore, Zheng Ju's Ten Thousand Ages Sutra is written in hidden language, and it is not detailed. But even so. With his merits and learning, he is still not immune.

Through Zheng Ju's prophecy, those who see the future cannot spread it unscrupulously, otherwise the destiny of heaven will be ruthless and will be counterattacked. Either the future is bumpy or riddled with illness.

Ye Xingyuan knew that it was powerful. Hurriedly agreed. Emperor Longping turned his eyes and searched in the cabin, but he did not see the last person who had entered the illusion world, and frowned: "Where did that ridiculous scholar go? Could it be that he died in the illusion? If this is the case, if he comes back and talks nonsense outside, it will be a dead end." ”

Ye Xingyuan only remembered at this time that in addition to a few of them, there was also a Chen Jian mixed in, but he hadn't seen this person since he got out of the virtual image just now, could it really be that he died in the future?

Bao Zhu smiled bitterly: "I just subdued him." Thrown in the desert, it is said that there should be no danger in a day. ”

The virtual image originally did not hurt people, but because this catastrophe hooked up the Netherworld Yellow Spring, and the time of the underworld was not synchronized with the human world, even Sima Zhen and others would be seriously injured and killed in the virtual image.

If Chen Jian had met a skeleton Yin soldier, he would have been afraid that he would be more auspicious and less auspicious, and he might have been killed so silently. Although this man hates it, he does not sin unto death. Ye Xingyuan also sighed twice for him.

Father-in-law An was a little puzzled, and hesitated: "If you want to see people alive, you have to see corpses when you die." Even if he died in the void, the body should have been in this cabin, how could it have disappeared without a trace?

There is no solution to this question, and the illusory images that have been "seen in this world" are extremely rare, and the underworld is also full of fog, so I went back to ask other experts in Qin Tianjian for advice. I'm afraid that I can't get the point.

Anyway, Chen Jian never came back, and Emperor Longping didn't want to worry about a mere talent. He was in a hurry to return to the palace, so he left Gonggong An here to deal with the aftermath, and he left first with the protective pillar.

Before leaving, the emperor encouraged Ye Xingyuan and said, "You should prepare for the exam." In March, try not to disappoint me. You can rest assured that you will stay in the inn, and if I am free, I will come back to you. ”

Is this what it means to regard yourself as a playmate outside the palace? Ye Xingyuan was flattered and thanked Junen. Watching the emperor leave, he took Zhu Ning'er back to the post house, thinking back to the bizarre horror he encountered last night, and his heart still palpitated. The Lantern Festival riddle meeting was originally just a leisure rest, but I didn't expect it to cause such an ending.

After a night of sleeplessness, Ye Xingyuan was a little sleepy, so he told Zhu Ning'er a few more words, went back to their rooms to rest, and slept until dusk.

Ye Xingyuan didn't want to recall the horror in the proverbs, so he calmed down and read the works of the saints again. Now that there are only two months left before the examination, he has temporarily put aside everything else, and first has to work hard to gain a reputation as a jinshi.

However, the aftermath of this incident is far from subsiding.

However, as soon as the four murderers left the painting boat, they immediately scattered in all directions, each heading towards his hometown. Although their backlash is not as serious as Sima Xu's, even if they show their magical powers to save their lives, the remaining yang lifespan is less than a year. Therefore, he was anxious to return to his homeland and teach his disciples the mantle. Although they can't say it explicitly, they will also implicitly let their people prepare for the upcoming catastrophe as soon as possible.

The demon beggar went all the way north, and he was carelessly injured at the beginning, and although he was forcibly healed, he was injured after all. Now that I am in a hurry, I only feel pain in my chest and abdomen, and I have to slow down.

Out of the city gate, along the official road through a forest, the demon beggar walked with a cane, about thirty miles away, and suddenly stopped. He squinted his eyes and looked around vigilantly, only to see the mountains surrounding, but there was a cold murderous aura coming from the mountains.

"Which friend is in ambush? Such a little trick, but I can't help it!" the beggar sneered, and with a gesture of his wooden staff, he saw a black gas in the grass, marking all the dangerous places. He is the best at seeking good fortune and avoiding evil, and it is almost impossible to plot against him.

"The demon clan has always been ignorant of the destiny of heaven, and they are blindly brave and ruthless, and it is really rare to be able to produce a character like a demon beggar. A woman's sigh came from the grass, and she walked out slowly.

The woman was dressed in white, and her posture was graceful, but her face seemed to be covered by a fog, and she couldn't see it clearly in any way. The demon beggar trembled when he saw it, sweating like rain, and said astringently: "Girl is a fairy outside the world, why are you here?"

The woman in white shook her head indifferently, "Since you have the destiny of heaven, you should naturally know my intentions, and now that you are cornered, why don't you let me save some strength?"

The demon beggar laughed miserably: "Since the fairy is here, the old beggar will not be lucky, but no matter whether it is a person or a demon, he must always fight in the moment of life and death." I'm not going to sit still. ”

He roared, and the wooden staff shook lightly, turning into a dark cloud, and jumped up, trying to escape from the clouds.

The woman in white sneered, "The demon clan's cloud-climbing supernatural power dares to show it, since you are going to die and struggle, then I will cut off your thoughts." ”

She raised her hand and pointed at it, only to see a lightning bolt in the sky, thunder and thunder, right in the middle of the demon beggar's top door. The demon beggar screamed miserably, fell from the cloud head to the ground, and convulsed all over, seeing that it was no longer alive.

"One. The woman in white looked up at the sky, as if she was in a state of interest.

Within a day, Mr. Zongshan was stabbed on the shore of the East China Sea, and the King of Zhaoti sat in the White Pagoda of the West City, and the shadow man was trapped by people with secret magical powers, and burned him with fire, destroying his formless and insubstantial incarnation. These four prophecies never expected that this trip to the capital would be so fierce! They never had the opportunity to return to their homeland, and they died within the same day as Sima Xu, which can be regarded as fate.

And Ye Xingyuan, who had seen the illusion of prophecy with the four of them, still knew nothing about their deaths for the time being.

Chen Jian, who was forgotten by everyone, woke up on a gorgeous and comfortable big bed, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a slender woman in white standing by the window, and couldn't help but cry out: "Girl Jinzhi, isn't this a dream?"

Because of a few more glasses of wine, Chen Jian's memory of last night was extremely blurry, and he couldn't remember what happened at all. Could it be that he solved the emperor of the mystery in a drunken way, so he got the beautiful blue eyes?

Chen Jian traveled to Beijing to study for several years, and because someone helped him, he was lucky enough to enter the Furong Pavilion once or twice. Since I saw the beautiful picture of the brocade girl, I don't want to hurt lovesickness.

It was precisely because of the painting boat of the Tiger Shooting Club this time that he took out the song and dance of the brocade girl as the color head of the emperor of the mystery, which made him resentful in his heart, and he was not even polite to anyone.

Now when I wake up, I find that I am on the side of a beautiful woman, how can I not be overjoyed.

The woman in white turned her head slowly, her face was still shrouded in mist, but Chen Jian looked at her with an even more surprised expression, her eyes were full of admiration.

"What an honor it is to have the Nishiki girl bow her head, and now that she is dead, she is also satisfied. Chen Jian was confused, but his heart was filled with a huge sense of happiness.

The woman in white slowly walked to the side of the bed, looked at him quietly, and said casually: "Since you are willing to die, then if I ask you to do something for me, you will definitely not refuse?"

Chen Jian was overjoyed and said: "I will not give up when I go to the soup and fight the fire." ”

The eyes of the woman in white flashed with brilliance, Chen Jian only felt a flower in front of her, her brain buzzed, and her expression suddenly became dull.

"Get up. The woman in white commanded softly, and Chen Jian sat up straight like a puppet, and slowly got out of bed and stood still, not moving at all.

"Let's go out. The woman in white gave another command, and Chen Jian took a sluggish step, her body showing a strange clumsiness. But after a few steps, he gradually became more and more comfortable, and he pushed open the door and walked out of the house.

The woman in white looked at his back and nodded with satisfaction, "I want you to take the exam in March, you don't have to win in the final game of wit, just help me deal with someone." ”

Chen Jian turned around, and now he couldn't see anything abnormal on his face, just like usual, only a trace of weird light occasionally flashed in his eyes, and he wouldn't notice it at all if he didn't look closely. He bowed his head and arched his hand, "I don't know who the brocade girl is going to deal with?"

The woman in white smiled lightly, "Don't worry, you'll know when the time comes." (To be continued.) )
