Chapter 55: Chen Guo's Annihilation

After leaving the barracks, Qin Chen hurried with all his might, and crossed the small mountain range where they came in less than half a day.

After there was no peace, Qin Chen was able to use his full strength, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as a galloping along the way, even Huihui felt that his brother's speed was too fast.

Qin Chen also has no choice, it has been a day and a night since the Qingyuan County City was breached, God knows where the tide of demon beasts has reached, if he doesn't leave Chen Country before the demon beasts, Qin Chen can think of how difficult the remaining road is with his toes.

At the same time, the tide of demon beasts has arrived in the capital of Chen Guoguo.

There are three counties in the Chen Kingdom, which is already in the middle of the hundred countries, of which the Qingyuan county is located in the south, while the other two counties are located in the northeast and one in the northwest, and Chen Guoguo is free from the three counties and has a separate city, located between the two counties.

Since you are the capital of the country, the guards are naturally not weak, there is a royal guard stationed here all the year round, and the combat power is second only to the armor-breaking army, but unfortunately, a few days ago, the southern countries combined to draw most of the troops, and now this is an empty shell.

Despite all the efforts to conceal it, the news leaked out. So, after learning of this situation, the scene in the national capital was like that of Qingyuan County, and the people fled frantically, not only the people, but even the soldiers began to flee.

Inside the royal palace at this time.

As the royal palace of a country, it is still quite gorgeous. Five steps on the first floor, ten steps on the first floor, the corridor waist is back, the eaves are high and pecked, each hugs the terrain, hooks and fights. Coiled, embarrassed, beehive water vortex, I don't know how many tens of millions of them fall.

Only this "A Fang Gong Fu" can describe it.

Inside King Chen's bedchamber, a huge curtain decorated with jewels for a luxurious look, and behind the curtain is a huge bed. The bedding alone is woven from silk that is rare in the land of a hundred countries, and if nothing else, you can see how rich King Chen is.

At this moment, an old man with white hair was lying on this luxurious bed, his face was wrinkled, his eyes were yellow, and his teeth were almost gone. Chen Wang's illness is not light, and he is basically powerless.

"National teacher, how is the situation with the soldiers?" asked an old man who was standing in front of the bed.

said that he was an old man, but compared with King Chen, his complexion was ruddy, although he was wrinkled, his breathing was even, and his head was full of black hair.

This person was wearing an ornate Taoist robe. There is a pattern embroidered on the chest with a pattern of medicinal herbs, and behind it is a pattern in the shape of a Dan furnace, which is not as good as that of King Chen from the perspective of its workmanship. But it is also a first-class good product, there is not even a single subordinate in the entire dormitory, only the two of them, and the identity of this old man is about to come out: Chen Guoshi.

That Chen Guo's only Spirit Transformation Realm powerhouse. Hu Zaitian.

Speaking of this Hu Zaitian, he is also a strange person. No one had heard of his great name before he became a powerhouse in the Spirit Transformation Realm, and there was no record of him. After becoming a powerhouse in the Spirit Transformation Realm, he immediately gained the trust of King Chen and was named a national teacher, which can be described as one person below and above ten thousand.

During this period, although some people doubted Hu Zaitian's identity, as a powerhouse in the Spirit Realm, who dared to touch the tiger's whiskers, after successively defeating several Zhenguo generals who were the ninth cultivators of the Body Refining Realm, the matter was over.

Hu Zaitian stepped forward and sat at the head of the bed, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the little beast tide is not a problem, everything has Weichen, as long as Weichen makes a move, even if it exterminates the vast mountain range, there is no problem." "Ordinary people who dare to sit on King Chen's bed will punish the nine clans, but King Chen doesn't care, which shows the status of the national teacher in King Chen's heart.

"But I heard that the Qingyuan County City has been breached, and the demon beasts have reached the city directly, but is there such a thing?"

Hu Zaitian's eyes flashed with coldness, and then he smiled, even King Chen didn't notice it: "Your Majesty, it's just a few small demon beasts, as long as Weichen makes all the moves, it's Your Majesty, please take care of your body, this Chen country still has to rely on you to rule! Your Majesty, it's time to take medicine." ”

Hearing that he was taking the medicine, King Chen's spirits perked up, and Hu Zaitian helped him to sit up and took a gourd from his waist.

Opening the mouth of the gourd, Hu Zaitian shook it, and poured out a golden pill from it, this pill is about the size of a lychee, shining gold, flowing with a dazzling luster, and what is more peculiar is that the aroma is tangy, which makes people feel refreshed when they smell it.

When Wang Chen saw the elixir, his eyes lit up, he snatched it up, and swallowed it directly without saying a word.

A look of disgust flashed in Hu Zaitian's eyes, and then he looked as usual, and took a cup of hot tea from the desk next to him and asked King Chen to take it.

After Wang Chen took the pill, he took a deep breath, looked at the national teacher, and smiled, "National teacher, your medicine is really magical, I feel that my complexion is much better after taking it, I believe that there is no problem in living for one or twenty years." ”

Hu Zaitian stood up, bowed and said: "Your Majesty is a dragon body, then you must live for ten thousand years, as long as Your Majesty insists on taking the medicine refined by Weichen for Your Majesty every day, you will be able to live with Tianqi, does Your Majesty not believe in Weichen's alchemy methods? If so, Your Majesty does not need to take Weichen's pills." ”

King Chen smiled bitterly and said: "The national teacher is too careful, how can I not believe in your alchemy? I just talk casually, please don't take it to heart, I know that the national teacher is comparable to the existence of a true immortal, and has lived for 13,000 years, how can I not believe it, but I am the king of Chen, and now that the beast tide is coming, I must do something for the sake of the people of Chen, I hope that the national teacher can make a move." ”

"Your Majesty, the little demon beast Weichen doesn't care at all, but since Your Majesty has spoken, the minister must solve this big problem, in fact, Your Majesty is the body of a real dragon, when everything is important to the dragon body, those people will die, as long as the dragon body is healthy, no matter how much Chen Guo can rule. ”

"Hehe, it's my fault, it's my fault. King Chen was in a good mood and even apologized.

Hu Zaitian glanced outside, "Your Majesty, now that the little demon beast has offended the national capital, Weichen will go to deal with it, and please take care of the dragon's body, Weichen has gone." ”

"Take care. King Chen seemed to be tired, and the national teacher helped King Chen to rest, and left immediately.

Out of King Chen's bedroom, Hu Zaitian's eyes showed a haze and looked back at the palace. scolded the old immortal.

There was not a single guard or maid outside King Chen's bedroom, and there were only two Taoist children wearing Taoist uniforms, but these two Taoist children were carrying long swords, but they looked heroic and extraordinary.

Hu Zaitian exchanged for a Taoist boy, "How are things going?"

"Qi Qi Ancestor, everything is ready, and all the belongings that can be moved have been moved. ”

"Where's the herbs?"

"How dare you not take what the master ordered to heart, the medicinal materials in the palace treasury have been moved, and now the vehicle is outside the city, as long as it passes through the secret passage. Retreat immediately. ”

"You're doing a good job. Hu Zaitian looked back at the dormitory, "Originally, things were going well, in a few years, Chen Guo will be my Heavenly Medicine Palace, but I didn't expect the beast tide to break out, and more than ten years of planning fell short, it's a pity." ”

The Dao boy immediately smiled and said, "Master, no one thought of such a thing as a beast tide, but although we didn't turn Chen Guo into our puppet, Chen Guo's treasury was emptied by us. It's enough for my Heavenly Medicine Palace to expand, and no one can think of such a thing as the beast tide, Master, it's important to evacuate now. If you encounter a demon beast, it won't be good, even with the strength of a group of us, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. ”

Hu Zaitian frowned and said to himself, "According to the secret report, the beast tide will break out for at least ten years. How could it break out so quickly?" looked at Dao Tong, knowing that it was important for Dao Dao to evacuate, he immediately didn't want to do so much. hurriedly gave the order: "Let everyone evacuate, let's go now!"

"Yes, Master. ”

The three of them left the palace through the secret passage without realizing it.

At this time, above the court, a group of civil servants and military generals quarreled, and the content of the discussion was the matter of the current beast tide.

At this moment, a eunuch wearing eunuch clothes walked in from the main gate, and all the ministers stopped arguing, waiting for the eunuch's answer, and an old official who was obviously the head of the civil ministers walked out, "Gonggong Zhao, it can be seen that His Majesty has arrived, what is His Majesty's will?"

Gonggong Zhao smiled bitterly: "Don't wait, you guys, I went to the dormitory of His Majesty just now, but I didn't even see His Majesty's face, so I was persuaded back by the two Taoist children of the national teacher." I think I'm also the head of the house, but those two Taoist boys don't even give a little face. ”

Old Wenchen snorted angrily: "I think that the national teacher is a demon Dao, you see, since the national teacher came, His Majesty seems to have changed a person, often ignoring state affairs, indulging in alchemy, how can this happen in the long run, and now it is the autumn when Chen Guo is in danger of survival, how can the demon Dao act like this?"

"Taifu, please be careful. That Zhao Gonggong exclaimed, "That national teacher is indeed a strong man in the spirit realm, this has been confirmed from several Zhenguo generals, Taifu don't say it in a demonic way, lest it be discovered by the national teacher, it will not be good, and his life may be lost." ”

Taifu was just angry just now, but now his mood has calmed down, and he remembered his gaffe just now, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, but when he saw that the people around him didn't take it to heart, he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately looked at Zhao Gonggong, "Zhao Gonggong, can you report it again, now that the beast tide is coming, without the will and military talisman of His Majesty, we can't mobilize the army at all." If this goes on, the capital of the kingdom shall fall. ”

Gonggong Zhao spread his hands, "Taifu, it's not that the family doesn't help, the family also went to the house just now, but I can't see His Majesty's face at all, even if I go again." ”

Taifu sighed for a long time, "Could it be that the sky is going to kill my Chen country?"

As if he had made a lot of determination, Taifu said to everyone: "Everyone, I don't need to say more about the current situation, now Your Majesty is confused by the demon Dao, there is a strong enemy outside, and if you don't resist Chen Guo, it will be over, and now you can only look at us, I want to mobilize the army under the pretense of Your Majesty's order." ”

After hearing this, the ministers hurriedly persuaded, "This is a great rebellion!"

"Taifu, this matter must not be allowed. ”

"You can't mobilize the army without a military talisman, Taifu, this method doesn't work!"

"Rest assured, now is a crisis, you can act cheaply, as long as there is the will of Your Majesty, I think the army will obey the order in this situation, please rest assured, all these things are my idea, and it has nothing to do with you, and all the blame will be borne by me alone. After saying this, Taifu seemed to collapse.

Ministers, you look at me, I look at you, and then as if they have a heart, they all bow to the Taifu, "This matter is the responsibility of me and others, and we are willing to bear it together." ”

Taifu is now over the age of old, and he has never seen any deceit, but he was moved by today's ministers. I saw tears in his eyes, and he also bowed to the ministers: "Zeng has thanked you here." ”

After ascertaining the situation, one of the ministers asked the question, "Where is the holy decree, without which it is impossible to give orders." ”

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

At this time, Zhao Gong, who had been silent, spoke openly, "Alas, you ministers can still be like this, and the He family is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and the Holy Decree knows where the Tao is." The Jade Seal family also knows where the road is, so the family will bring it. ”

Taifu bowed to Gonggong Zhao, "Father-in-law is anxious for justice, Zeng is here to thank the people of Chen State." ”

Zhao Gonggong hurriedly waved his hand to say that he didn't dare.

Everything was ready, one after another holy decrees were sent out from the court in an orderly manner, and then the scattered national capital made due defenses, and the remaining royal guards were all sent to the city walls, and even the Praetorian Guards were sent out of the city.

One after another government decrees were issued, and the national capital was once again functioning in an orderly manner. Ready for the next big battle.

All the ministers in the court were sweating profusely, and they all sat on the main hall without a statue, forging a holy decree, which was a great crime of killing their heads! Everyone didn't know if they would be able to see the sun tomorrow.

Zhao Gonggong sighed: "Since it has been done to this extent. You can defend the country if you want to come, right?"

Taifu shook his head, "It's too early. ”

"Isn't this going to work?" Zhao Gonggong wondered.

Taifu still shook his head, "No matter what, we have done everything we can, everything depends on the will of heaven! Then the Chen Kingdom can only perish, and the heavens let the Chen Kingdom exist, even if it is ten times the beast tide, there is no need to be afraid. ”

In King Chen's bedroom, King Chen, who was sleeping in a daze, opened his eyes. Feeling thirsty, he struggled to sit up, "Come on, come on." ”

But after shouting for a long time and there was no response from the palace maid, King Chen remembered that for his own safety, the national teacher had removed the guards, eunuchs, and maids around the palace.

King Chen patted his forehead, lamented that he was old and confused, and then called the national teacher again, but after shouting for a long time, the national teacher who had originally arrived with the rumor did not even have half a shadow at this time.

In desperation, King Chen had to do it himself, thinking that he would punish the national teacher well.

Put on the dragon boots, King Chen put the dragon robe on his body, picked up the tea on the desk, King Chen found that it was cold, frowned, put down the tea, and walked to the outside of the palace, opened the palace door, at this time the sky was dark, it was dark outside the palace, and there was not even a soldier on duty at night, King Chen snorted coldly, and his dissatisfaction with the national teacher was deeper.

"Someone, someone, someone. After shouting three times in a row, but still no one answered, King Chen felt that he was a little tired, so he sat on the steps in front of the palace gate without any image.

Suddenly, a fire appeared in the distance, and King Chen was overjoyed, and staggered to his feet, wanting to punish this derelict guard.

The light of the fire was getting closer and closer, and King Chen realized that this was not a guard.

The situation of the person who came was completely exposed in front of King Chen's eyes, and it turned out to be the prince of the dynasty, the chief of the inner palace, Zhao Gonggong, more than a dozen civil and military generals, and hundreds of guards.

As soon as Taifu arrived at the palace gate, he saw King Chen standing in front, and immediately took three steps and two steps to the front, and burst into tears, "Your Majesty, the old minister finally saw the dragon face in the pen." ”

King Chen took a breath: "Taifu, why did you lead the troops here, do you know what kind of crime this is? And the national teacher? Quickly find the national teacher." ”

Taifu didn't know where he got the courage, and shouted at King Chen: "Your Majesty, now that the demon beast has attacked the city, and the national teacher is nowhere to be found, that is a demon road! Your Majesty, run away! If you don't escape, we will all die in the buckle of the demon beast!"

I don't know if it was Taifu's words, or if King Chen's physique was originally poor, after hearing this, King Chen's very glorious fainted.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. The surrounding ministers hurriedly surrounded them, pinching the people again, measuring the pulse, and all messed up

On the sixth day of the fourth month of the twelfth year of the Great Qi Kingdom, Qi Wei Wang Tianhe of the twelfth year, the demon beast tide arrived in the capital of Chen State, and after holding on for a day, the demon beast king of the Spirit Realm made a move, and the country was breached, and the Chen State perished.
