After the hero goes crazy
Chapter 390
There are still eight days before the arrival of the 'River God'.
After seeing the seriously injured Liu family, Yao Shouning turned to look for Yao Ruoyun, and asked him to pack his luggage immediately and take his family out of town tomorrow at the latest.
"Brother, you have studied in Zhushan Academy for many years, and you are very familiar with Qingfeng Temple." Yao Shouning reached out to touch his cuff while speaking.
She took out a bulging purse from the narrow sleeve pocket, and handed it to the young man in front of her:
"It contains money notes from Dafeng Bank."
After Liu's injury, the family's original housekeeping power was handed over to Yao Hui, and after Yao Hui returned to the Yamen, the family fell into an embarrassing situation with no one to manage.
Before that, Yao Ruoyun only knew how to study and ignored important family affairs; Yao Wanning used to be weak, so Liu Shi naturally didn't want her to work hard, and now that she was pregnant again, and her delivery was imminent, Yao Shouning also didn't want to bother her with these matters.
And Liu Bingzhou was worried about the 'river god'. Although Su Wenfang was an elder, he was always an outsider. In the end, things were pushed back and forth, and it was Yao Shouning who took the initiative to take over and try to learn.
When she handed over the money, Yao Ruoyun didn't reach out to take it, but stared blankly at her sister for a while.
In his memory, the cute, cute and childish younger sister had grown up at some point, with a mature and steady expression in her eyes, and her demeanor was slightly strange.
"Brother?" Seeing that Yao Ruoyun didn't move, Yao Shouning raised his head to look at him in a daze.
Her expression was a little puzzled, and her dazed look returned to the familiar look.
Yao Ruoyun involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief, with a serious expression, put her hands behind her back, took a few steps back, and shook her head:
"Open your wallet and let me see."
"..."
Yao Shouning didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, but he heard that he obediently untied the purse bag, and took out a thick stack of money notes inside:
"Here, here."
"You unfold the bill." Yao Ruoyun said again as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Are you afraid that I will poison the money?" Yao Shouning rolled his eyes at him, and when he spoke, he unwrapped the bundled money notes. The denomination of the money notes was 20 taels each, and there were about ten pieces in total.
The situation in the past two years has been bad, the Yao family has experienced many times, and there is no surplus in money.
Last year, Liu Bingzhou went to Shendu and brought his savings to solve Liu's urgent needs.
Yao Ruoyun is no longer good at general affairs, but he also knows that this year's Blood Mosquito Gu and floods have caused Yao's family to have only expenses for the past half a year, with little income left.
The shops that Liu's bought earlier were already beyond their means, and the family was struggling. The money that Yao Shouning took out at this time might be the entire property of the Yao family.
Yao Ruoyun's expression suddenly turned ugly, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked:
"What about you and grandfather?"
"..." The relaxed expression on Yao Shouning's face gradually disappeared, she looked up at Yao Ruoyun, and shouted in a daze:
"Big brother."
In her heart, although she looks serious, she has always had a good temper. Yao Ruoyun, who has always been tolerant of her family, suddenly lost her temper:
"Shouning, in your heart, do you think that elder brother is an outsider?"
"It's nothing." Yao Shouning shook her head hastily. She felt the sadness from Yao Ruoyun's voice, and knew that he had guessed something was wrong.
"Then why are you never the first to tell me what happened at home?"
Liu's bewitched that day, the marriage between Yao Wanning and the 'River God', and the matter of Yao Shouning and his son looking for a solution several times later, they knew about it a long time ago, but no one told him, kept him in the dark, let him I can't stop thinking and guessing.
"No..." Yao Shouning realized that his actions had hurt the elder brother's heart, and she was about to solve it, so Yao Ruoyun looked at her sadly:
"You formed a group and pushed me out?"
"No." She shook her head desperately.
"This money is all the property of the family, right?" He seemed to be asking, but in fact he was very sure.
Yao Shouning didn't want to make him worry, but when he met Yao Ruoyun's eyes, he nodded mysteriously:
"……Correct."
"There are still a lot of places to spend money at home. You give me all the money and ask me to take my uncle and Wanning to leave Shendu City first. In other words, you probably think in your heart that we will never come back."
"I..." As soon as Yao Shouning spoke, Yao Ruoyun didn't give her a chance, and said to herself:
"If you don't tell me, I can guess something. You have a strong predictive ability. If you make such a decision, something big must happen."
He just doesn't speak much, and he's not a fool. Combined with some recent things:
"The monster clan is coming? No, it's not just that." He thought for a while, and then affirmed:
"The 'River God' is coming. This time, I am afraid that it is not a warning like the previous flood. It is very likely that the city of God will also be destroyed."
He made a good guess, and said:
"You can predict something bad, maybe you can predict that something will happen to everyone, so you want me to take my family to avoid the gods and escape this catastrophe."
After finishing speaking, he fixedly looked at his sister:
"Grandfather has a righteous heart and is entrusted by the eldest princess. He will definitely not leave. Recently, you were the housekeeper and director of the family. You suddenly handed over the money to me. It is obvious that you are planning to stay with grandfather and want to send us out. "
"..." Yao Shouning's forced smile froze, and her raised hand dropped powerlessly.
From Yao Ruoyun's words, she could already hear that her elder brother disapproved of her, maybe he would not agree to her request.
"No—" she said reluctantly, seeing Yao Ruoyun staring at her, the defense line in her heart suddenly collapsed, and said softly:
"Yes, brother, you are right."
She nodded in acknowledgment:
"I foresaw that the coming of the 'River God' would bring about a crisis of destroying the city of God. If it is not handled properly, my grandfather may—"
She didn't say the rest, but Yao Ruoyun already understood what she meant.
His heart went cold.
Although Yao Shouning had already thought about the worst outcome before Yao Shouning spoke, but when Yao Shouning nodded in recognition, Yao Ruoyun still felt unspeakably panicked.
"How could it be? My grandfather is a great Confucian in the world, and his strength is extraordinary..."
He was a little incoherent, and then saw the water in his sister's eyes, and then he was at a loss:
"Shouning don't cry, don't cry..."
He wanted to coax his sister, but he didn't know what to say for a while, so he just reached out and took the money note in Yao Shouning's hand:
"Don't cry, it's the elder brother's fault. The elder brother shouldn't make you sad." He pursed his lips, trying to wipe away his sister's tears, but in the end he didn't touch her, but said cautiously:
"I just want to know, just want to know the truth of the matter."
"It's my fault. I should tell my elder brother if I have something to say. I shouldn't hide something from my elder brother because I think it's for your own good." Yao Shouning also apologized softly.
After saying these words, the two brothers and sisters looked at each other and smiled, and the original grievances disappeared in an instant.
"Don't worry, since I know what's going on, I will naturally help."
Since there is already a crisis in Shendu City, it is naturally not suitable for Liu's injury to stay.
Yao Wanning was about to give birth again, so she should leave the city. Su Wenfang's family had nothing to do with these disasters, so it was reasonable to take advantage of this opportunity to avoid danger.
Yao Ruoyun took the money and said:
"I'll take the money. Tonight, I'll ask Uncle Zheng to help buy two more carriages, and I'll pack up my luggage. I'll try my best to send him out of the city tomorrow."
Yao Shouning heard the meaning of his words and was about to speak when he said again:
"But I am the eldest son of the family. Although I have no skills, there is no reason to leave you, grandfather and father alone in the city to face the crisis."
"Brother..." Although Yao Shouning guessed his intentions, he was still shocked when he heard him say this, and was about to persuade him, but Yao Ruoyun said:
"Don't persuade me, and I won't listen to you."
He was always young and mature, but now he covered his ears with his hands and did not look into Yao Shouning's eyes:
"Grandfather promised me that depending on my performance, he would accept me as an apprentice. The old man has not kept his promise, so I won't allow it."
He rambled:
"Besides, Dad usually said that I am the eldest son and should protect the mother and sister in the family. There is no reason for me to run away alone and leave you in danger."
After speaking, he was afraid that Yao Shouning would persuade her again, so he loosened his hands covering his ears, looked at her seriously and said:
"Shouning, you just want me to get out of the crisis, but the world is so big, where can I go?"
His words hit the hidden worry in Yao Shouning's heart, making her speechless.
The disaster brought by the 'River God' this time may bring the crisis of destruction to Daqing, the escape at this time is only temporary, as she said with Liu Bingzhou before, even if you can escape for a while, you cannot escape for a lifetime.
If Liu Bingzhou doesn't stand up, all the gods will be destroyed, sooner or later the resentment carried by the 'River God' will sweep the world, the monster clan will follow, Daqing will be destroyed soon, not to mention hiding in Qingfeng Temple, even fleeing to the ends of the earth.
On the contrary, if Liu Bingzhou resists, then all the crises will be solved naturally, and the Yao family will always return to their old place.
Fortunately, although Yao Ruojun insisted on staying and sharing the adversity with his family, he was not an ignorant person, and he agreed to send his family out of the city first, which made Yao Shouning heave a sigh of relief.
In the evening, Liu Bingzhou adjusted his clothes, entered the inner city, and asked for enlightenment.
And Yao Shouning stayed at home to accompany Yao Wanning to pack his luggage, a little absent-minded.
Before Liu Bingzhou left, she predicted that her grandfather's trip would not go well. Emperor Shen Qi had a violent temper, and there was an extremely dangerous Chen Taiwei beside her. She originally wanted to accompany her grandfather, but was rejected by Liu Bingzhou.
It was getting dark little by little.
It’s approaching July, so normally the days are long and the nights are short, but I don’t know if it’s because of the large number of deaths in Shendu City recently, which caused many people to burn joss sticks, paper money, and green smoke, so it gets dark early every day.
Yao Wanning doesn't have many personal belongings. Except for her usual clothes, she doesn't like to dress up. Jewelry, grease, etc. are pitifully scarce, and the rest of the boxes are only filled with some books she usually reads.
"Miss, these books are a bit damp."
Qing Yuan, who helped her pack things, came over with a stack of books and asked in a low voice.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Mallow took out the torch and prepared to light the fire.
But she blew a few breaths in succession, the fire pocket only flashed a few sparks, and it took a long while for the fire to light up, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"The weather is so humid recently." She muttered:
"It's not just the book tide. When I tidy up the sheets and bedding, it's also very humid. I don't know when the sun will come out. I have to dry it out."
She had no intention of speaking, but the two sisters listened with intention.
Yao Wanning bit her lower lip, and subconsciously glanced at her sister, but saw Yao Shouning frowning. Both sisters knew that it was not easy for the sun to rise again.
If this catastrophe cannot be avoided, it may be difficult to see the sun rise again in the future.
"I……"
Yao Wanning sighed, Yao Shouning suddenly said:
"Don't take bed sheets and bedding, there must be bedding for pilgrims in Qingfeng Temple."
Her heart was beating wildly, and an uneasy premonition came to her heart:
"Let's travel lightly and leave the city at speed."
Yao Wanning's heart tightened, she touched her stomach, but said nothing.
Qing Yuan said:
"But Miss is used to sleeping on the sheets at home, so I'm afraid..."
In the past, Mrs. Liu took good care of her daughter.
Yao Wanning's body is weak, and she has been very particular about clothing since she was a snack, and she has also developed a cautious character of Qing Yuan and Bai Yu who serve her.
"There is no need to pack up and prepare."
Yao Wanning shook her head, and as soon as she finished speaking, she saw that her younger sister was a little surprised, she turned her head and was about to speak, she quickly said:
"Shouning, do you think my grandfather's business will go smoothly when he enters the inner city?"
Her words just hit Yao Shouning's hidden worries. Although she knew that Yao Wanning's words were just changing the subject, she had already made up her mind, and she still shook her head when she heard the words:
"I do not know."
Liu Bingzhou's trip was not smooth.
He entered the inner city, but Emperor Shenqi did not see him.
In the Daqing Palace, the old emperor was half leaning on the couch, and the extraordinarily beautiful Concubine Tu stood behind him, stretching out a pair of jade hands painted with Danko, pinching his shoulders and neck for him.
"This old thing."
Emperor Shenqi snorted coldly:
"When I wanted to see him that day, I pushed back and forth, relying on being a great Confucian, so I didn't take me seriously." His cheeks were thin, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and there was a dark look between his eyebrows and eyes:
"Now he sees me whenever he wants, thinking that the palace is his Nanzhao's dilapidated house?"
He has a narrow temperament and holds grudges very much, thinking of the humiliation of being rejected when he summoned Liu Bingzhou several times, an impulse to kill came in his heart.
"No, no see!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of gasping for air from a palace official next to his ear.
I saw several palace servants and servants on duty at the gate of the palace seemed to be attracted by some strange scene, and looked up subconsciously.
Emperor Shenqi's rule was mean and ungrateful, and his methods were harsh. All the servants in the palace were very worried, fearing that something might go wrong. Naturally, such a change at this time was not quite right.
At this moment, Concubine Tu said:
"Your Majesty, this concubine has smelled a sense of righteousness." When she spoke, a look of disgust appeared on her charming face.
700 years ago, Zhang Fuchen and others, headed by Confucianism and Taoism, were once the nemesis of demons and evils. They killed many demons with great righteousness, so the demons hated and feared Confucianism.
Concubine Tu is a member of the Heavenly Demon and Fox Clan, and her resentment towards the power of Confucianism has long been deeply rooted in her bones.
As soon as she finished speaking, Emperor Shen Qi heard the crisp birdsong in his ears.
'Huh——' A gust of wind blows into the hall, and accompanied by the long chants of the birds, a palm-sized paper crane drags a long golden light, vibrates its wings, and comes straight to the direction of Emperor Shenqi.
The paper bird is surrounded by golden light, it rubs against the air and turns into gold powder, if you look at it coldly, it will rush straight towards it as if carrying the light of fire.
Emperor Shenqi himself was vicious, so he judged others by himself, and immediately a thought came to his mind: Liu Bingzhou wanted to murder his own life!
Today is different from the past, he has already abdicated himself, and no longer has a real dragon to protect his body. Even though he is in front of a paper bird the size of a palm, his face is still pale with fright, and his body 'jumps' up, trying to retreat.
He moved swiftly, and Concubine Tu behind him didn't even react. When he bumped into her, the two of them fell to the ground.
"Escort! Escort!"
Emperor Shenqi didn't care about falling, and stretched out his hand and shouted repeatedly.
Feng Zhen, who was on the side, saw something bad, and immediately stepped forward, but before he could make a move, he saw the paper bird stop when it was about two steps away from Emperor Shenqi.
'boom! '
The golden glow on the bird's body turned into flames, and Liu Bingzhou's shadow appeared in front of Emperor Shenqi, with folded hands, bowing to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Daqing is at stake now, and the 'River God' is in trouble, and now it's coming again..."
Emperor Shenqi put his hand on his chest, and Concubine Tu, who was pressed under him, keenly sensed the messy impact of 'bang bang, bang bang' coming from his chest.
His heartbeat was too fast, and something was wrong.
With Yaozu's extraordinary hearing ability, she seemed to hear two inner voices hidden under the chest of Emperor Shen Qi.
"Bang bang bang bang bang—" A random beating, fast and urgent.
'Bang - bang - bang -' and the other one was unhurried, as if very rhythmic, corresponding to it.
This situation is quite weird, Concubine Tu has never noticed it before.
At the moment when these two heartbeats sounded, she sensed a change in the spiritual energy around her. In the hall, the surrounding light was distorted, and Chen Taiwei's thin and tall figure stepped out of the distorted light and shadow, appearing in front of everyone.
Seeing this scene, Concubine Tu's eyes flickered, realizing that she might have discovered some kind of secret, she didn't make a sound, but secretly decided to inform the Fox King of the situation, and the Fox King would find out.
As soon as Chen Taiwei entered the palace, he saw Emperor Shen Qi slumped behind the long couch, as if facing a formidable enemy.
The palace was filled with golden light, and the awe-inspiring righteousness of Confucianism washed away the ghost fox spirit that seemed to be hidden in the palace.
Liu Bingzhou's figure appeared in the midair like a reflection in the water, with his hands folded, he bowed to Emperor Shenqi.
"..." The condensed breath on Chen Taiwei's body stagnated, and then he couldn't laugh or cry.
700 years ago, what a hero and hero the fourth brother was. Who would have thought that 700 years later, there would be such an idiot emperor in the blood of his descendants?
As he rolled his eyes, there was sarcasm in his eyes, and then he folded his arms around his chest and stood to one side to watch the play.
"National teacher, save me—" Emperor Shenqi saw him coming, as if seeing a savior.
But the next moment, the attack he imagined did not come, Liu Bingzhou looked at Emperor Shen Qi, and continued:
"This is the time when Daqing is in crisis. Faced with such a situation, I think..."
He made three suggestions.
[-]. He believes that the monsters who were captured by the magician before were not completely evil, and it is very likely that they were only temporarily affected by the monsters, and their minds were blinded.
Their evil spirit invaded their lungs and did hurtful things. With the passage of time, there is a high probability that they will return to normal. Emperor Shenqi killed a large number of people recklessly, which hurt the peace of heaven.
Those who were beheaded died wronged, harbored resentment in their hearts, and were unwilling to reconcile after death. Maybe the resentment would cause trouble and bring crisis to Daqing.
Therefore, he suggested that Emperor Shen Qi open the door and stop the killing, so as to observe the follow-up.
If these people gradually regain consciousness, I hope that Emperor Shenqi will release the innocent people so that they can go home and reunite with their relatives; if these people are still affected by the evil spirit, they will continue to be imprisoned.
[-]. The "River God" will come on the [-]th day of the seventh month, which is the day when rumors say that the gate of hell is open, and the yin energy is at its peak.
The "River God" is originally a demon, and Yin Qi is like a tiger with wings for him. Once he enters the city of the gods, the consequences will be disastrous, so he wants to ask the god Qidi to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, invite the little emperor, and borrow the dragon who protects the country. The power to protect the capital of the gods together.
And the third point is also the main reason why Liu Bingzhou went to the imperial city today.
The 'River God' is coming in a menacing manner, and its momentum is extremely unstoppable. In order to avoid causing innocent casualties, he hopes that the emperor will come forward and use the power of the Zhenmagic Division, the Prison Division, and the five city soldiers and horses in the city to kill most of the people in the city. move away.
This is not an easy task.
People at this time pay attention to putting down roots. Many people have lived in the capital of the gods for generations. Will come forward to solve it.
Therefore, if they appealed in good spirits, most of the people might not leave, but if the court stepped forward and forced everyone to move, the matter would be much easier. Eight days would surely prevent many casualties and relieve Liu Bingzhou's pressure.
After raising these three points, he waited for Emperor Shenqi's reply.
Emperor Shen Qi, who was trembling with fear before, thinking that he was forcibly breaking into the palace city to do something wrong, came to his senses, and after listening to him finish speaking, he saw himself falling to the ground, covered in a mess.
There are palace people, Feng Zhen, Concubine Tu, Chen Taiwei and others around, and he yelled and screamed before, showing his ugliness and lacking the majesty of an emperor.
Emperor Shenqi felt great hatred in his heart, murderous intent flickered in his eyes, and he said angrily:
"Bold Liu Bingzhou, are you relying on your strange skills to force your way into the palace and act recklessly?"
He snapped:
"You are just an old Confucian in Nanzhao. You have neither fame nor merit to the country. If you think you have become a great Confucian, you don't take Daqing and I seriously! This is a capital offense!"
'laugh. '
Chen Taiwei watched the whole process, and suddenly laughed.
The huge hall was originally so quiet that a needle could be heard falling, when the palace servants and servants saw that Emperor Shen Qi was angry, they all trembled, lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound.
The laughter of the young national teacher fell into everyone's ears, and everyone could hear it clearly.
The palace servants and servants on duty lost their legs and fell to their knees.
Emperor Shenqi felt ashamed, and his killing intent became even stronger.
At this time, he not only had killing intent towards Liu Bingzhou, but also hated Chen Taiwei to the core.
"Bold Chen Taiwei..."
"Zihou, why bother?" Chen Taiwei didn't pay attention to Emperor Shenqi's anger, he just turned his head to look at the aged Liu Bingzhou, and through his face, he thought of the Zhang who had a brief encounter with him back then. Forgive me.
That was a character, smart, elegant, and with a determination rarely seen among scholars, he was somewhat similar to Zhang Fuchen in his memory.
When he learned that Zhang Raozhi was the descendant of Zhang Fuchen, he became interested in associating with this person and formed a relationship.
It's a pity that he also understands that his search may be just like a mirror, and even if the people he sees overlap with the old people back then, the past can no longer be recalled.
He just couldn't really let go of the past, trying to use these things to find those good memories from 700 years ago.
No matter how good Zhang Raozhi is, he is not Zhang Fuchen.
Realizing that his actions were futile, he no longer had a deep friendship with Zhang Raozhi, only met twice, and was willing to sell him a favor.
Because of this relationship, he had a good impression of Liu Bingzhou, even though in Liu Bingzhou's heart, the two may have different positions, but Chen Taiwei never spoke ill of him, and he was always polite, like an old friend.
"You love the world loyally, and you have said so much, but what is the use of saying these things when you are faced with a puddle of mud that you can't help?"
He said with some doubts:
"You are so smart, you should understand the truth that human nature is inherently evil. As an emperor, you have experienced the taint of power, and you have all the evil in human nature..."
"Bold Chen Taiwei!" Emperor Shenqi became furious and beat his chest hard, making a 'bang bang' sound:
"Don't think that I can't do anything about you."
He was greedy for life and afraid of death, but the two beatings were extremely hard.
Every time he hit, his chest echoed, but the strange thing was that he obviously hit himself, but when he hit him for the first time, Chen Taiwei's body shook violently as if he had been hit hard, and even had an afterimage.
When Emperor Shenqi's fist fell to his chest for the second time, Chen Taiwei's body was smashed by a stone like a projection in the water.
His body turned into dust and scattered, revealing a white skeleton standing on the spot!
The terrifying yin and evil spirit dissipated, and the candlelight in the hall was rushed by the evil spirit, and the light of the flames was actually reduced by half.
The flames turned from bright yellow to dark green, and the hall was full of ghostly winds and ghosts.
"what!"
Concubine Tu was shocked by this evil spirit and almost showed her original shape.
The long tail came out from under her skirt and almost wrapped around the body of Emperor Shen Qi.
She was so shocked that her face paled, and she quickly pressed the hem of her skirt to control her breath.
On the wall at the back of the hall, several long tails hung down from the back and the roof of the hall. Fortunately, everyone was attracted by Chen Taiwei, as if no one had noticed her strangeness. respite.
The skeleton seemed to be in extreme pain after being hit hard, its spine bent, and its head drooped.
There was a 'crack' sound when the bones collided, but 'him' opened and closed his jaw and made a weird laugh of 'huh huh'.
Feng Zhen's pupils shrank sharply, remembering that the last time he saw the phantom of the ghost on the national teacher's body, he thought it was not his own illusion.
No one expected that the national teacher who was revered by Emperor Shenqi would be the incarnation of a ghost!
But he was loyal and loyal, knowing that Chen Taiwei was in danger, he did not dodge, but seeing that Emperor Shenqi was afraid, he stood in front of Emperor Shenqi bravely and shouted:
"Escort!"
Several servants of Zhenmasi who were so frightened out of their wits barely stood up, and tremblingly stood beside Emperor Shenqi.
'laugh. '
The skull opened and closed its mouth and sneered.
"A majestic king of a country is no match for a few servants in terms of bravery and courage."
'He' turned his head, a pair of dark and empty eye sockets 'looked' at Liu Bingzhou:
"Zihou, you were taught by Zhang Raozhi, you should be a smart person, how could you do such a foolish thing?"
"You are dedicated to serving the public, what's the use of earnestly speaking? Knowing that there is a south wall, but you want to hit your head and bleed, why bother?"
There is no flesh on the skeleton's cheek, but the tone of 'him' reveals bewilderment:
"You have become a great Confucianist, so what does the life and death of ordinary people have to do with you? Even if the world falls, the evil spirits return, and you live in seclusion in the mountains, you can still live comfortably and happily, far better than today."
"The awakening of Shouning's blood has become a trend. Your Yao family still holds the heart of Confucianism and Taoism left by Zhang Raozhi. Sooner or later, you will be able to cultivate a second great Confucian." 'He' said bluntly:
"Two great Confucian scholars, a descendant of the Bianji clan, are enough to protect the safety of the Yao family, so why bother to suffer such idleness?"
"Look, there is only such a waste left in the Zhu Dynasty, can he listen to your words?" 'He' pointed to Emperor Shenqi.
"Chen Taiwei, how dare you insult me!"
Emperor Shenqi's face turned red, and Chen Taiwei regarded it as a great shame and humiliation when he was accused by Chen Taiwei. He was furious in his heart, and he beat his chest hard again, making a loud noise.
Every heavy sound seems to be connected to Chen Taiwei's remains. Amidst the sound of the pounding, the standing skeleton made the sound of bone shattering.
'Crack-crack--'
A series of cracks appeared on the skeleton's body, 'his' spine was broken, and his upper body fell backward.
But at this moment, black air escaped from 'his' body, and the skeleton body that was originally folded backwards stood upright under the 'support' of the black air.
'He' seemed to be irritated, and a translucent figure suddenly appeared in the black air.
That shadow has disheveled hair, thin cheeks, and slender eyes, which is completely different from the original Chen Taiwei's appearance.
It's a pity that the face that should have been beautiful, now surrounded by black air, looks ghostly.
The soul of 'him' was combined with the skeleton, and he turned around without hesitation, and that soul turned into a connected afterimage, and rushed straight to the face of Emperor Shenqi.
"I dare to die, do you dare?!"
The ghost sneered again and again, and a face that was emitting black energy was directly pressed against the face of Emperor Shen Qi:
"You kill me immediately, I will take your life!"
While speaking, a pair of ghost claws stretched out and grabbed Emperor Shenqi by the neck.
Seeing sweat on Feng Zhen's forehead, he immediately drew out his dagger and chopped at 'his' arm.
The specially made dagger sliced through the ghost's shadow, and it landed on the bone of the skeleton's arm with a 'dang'. When the two collided, there was a sound of gold and jade clashing.
Zhenmasi's weapons couldn't break Chen Taiwei's dharma body. Emperor Shenqi could easily make Chen Taiwei show his true colors before, obviously he had grasped his weakness.
Yinhun ignored Feng Zhen's movements, grabbed Emperor Shenqi's neck with both hands, and lifted the emperor high like a chicken.
"National Teacher, National Teacher, don't kill me..."
The emperor's face turned from red to white, he lifted his feet off the ground, and faced the ghostly face in front of him, it was like being poured a bucket of cold water on his head in an instant, and the anger in his heart was extinguished immediately.
Chen Taiwei's ghost body form flew up with Shen Qidi at the same time, and the black air lingered around 'him' and on the tip of his hair, pulling 'him' hair extremely long, like long algae flying in the sky in the sea, pulling 'him' The body is wrapped in it.
This makes the image of "him" even more terrifying, like a ghost.
The howling of the dark wind in the hall was mixed with the screams and begging for mercy of Emperor Shen Qi.
"National Teacher, National Teacher, please forgive me."
"We all died together—"
"We all die together!"
Chen Taiwei's voice was gloomy and cold, Feng Zhen and the others saw that the situation was not good, and each used their magical powers to slash at the ghost of 'him'.
"The strength of Zhenmensi is really not as good as every year."
'He' snorted coldly:
"That year, when my fourth brother handed over Zhenmagic Division to the second brother's hands, the second brother's elite soldiers united together, and even I had to give in. Wherever they went, the evil spirits were terrified, and they all avoided them."
"The demons belong to yin, and they have justice in their hearts. Only warriors who are passionate and full of yang can restrain them accordingly. Only by cooperating with my second brother's martial arts can we get twice the result with half the effort." Amidst the hum of 'he', a strand of long hair seemed to understand 'he' With the intention of "嗖", the detective's "嗖" turned into a thick tentacle in an instant, rolled up the loyal Feng Zhen by the waist, threw it into the air and hit the roof of the hall!
The impact was so powerful that the beams on the roof of the hall broke, the glazed tiles shattered, and the 'ping pong' fell to the ground.
A big hole was knocked out of the gorgeous and extraordinary roof, the black long touch loosened, and Feng Zhen vomited blood and fell to the ground.
'He''s long hair turned into countless tentacles, flying in the hall, and wherever he went, the people of Zhenmensi were frightened and dodged crazily.
"Right now, you, Zhu Dingchen, regard Zhenmagic as your lackey, appointing servants, incomplete and incomplete, and acting viciously. How can you talk about justice and masculinity?"
The more he talked, the more angry he became, every tentacle randomly grabbed people, no matter who they were, and smashed them indiscriminately, destroying the hall in an instant.
Not only that, Chen Taiwei also stretched out a snow-white jade-like skeleton hand, and reached for Emperor Shenqi's chest:
"You think you've got my weakness and want to use it to blackmail me, but I have a bad temper and I don't like being blackmailed the most. I used to play with you, do you think I'm really afraid of you?"
"No, no..."
When Emperor Shenqi saw 'him' move, he screamed in horror.
Chen Taiwei's bone fingers touched the old emperor's clothes, and the brocade clothes were stained with the black air between 'his' bones and fingers, and instantly ignited black flames.
Not only was the fire not hot, but it was cold to the bone, and its power was astonishing.
A hole the size of a bowl was opened in the clothes, exposing Emperor Shenqi's pale and thin chest.
'Boom—boom——'
'Boom boom boom. '
In the chest cavity, there were two heartbeats, one after another, beating non-stop.
"Hehehehehe—" Chen Taiwei laughed loudly.
At this time, the image of 'him' looked terribly frightening, with long hair flying around, almost paving the way for the entire messy hall, holding up the figure of 'him' and Emperor Shen Qi.
Murderous and Yin Qi coexist, 'his' bone finger pressed down.
'Porphyrin'.
The moment Shen Qidi's chest touched the bone finger, a black spot suddenly appeared.
The black spot was like a mold, spreading around at an extremely fast speed. Emperor Shenqi was no longer an emperor, without the body of a dragon. As the black spot spread, the flesh and blood on his chest dried up quickly, like a layer of fried paste. The flour will crumble when lightly pressed.
"Ah!!!" He let out a terrific scream, only then did he realize that Chen Taiwei really wanted to die with him.
"National teacher don't kill me, national teacher don't kill me, if you touch it, you will die too—"
He didn't expect Chen Taiwei's temperament to be so crazy and extreme. The savior he thought he had summoned, but at this moment he disagreed with each other and became a demon who wanted to take his life.
The old emperor knew that such words would not be able to threaten Chen Taiwei who was in a murderous situation, but he was helpless.
Amidst the miserable howling, Chen Taiwei's fingers were as sharp as a blade, and he cut open his chest, revealing the inside.
His chest was wide open, and the strange thing was that all the blood was sealed up, and blood vessels, heart and lungs were all clearly visible.
This scene was extremely frightening, and Emperor Shenqi was so frightened that he was out of his body, and could only groan in pain.
In addition to the entangled blood vessels, there were indeed two parallel hearts hanging in the emperor's chest. At this time, the two hearts seemed to be unable to feel the crisis, and they were still beating non-stop.
"Ahhhhh!!!" The emperor's miserable howls were endless.
At this moment, Concubine Tu's face, who was originally hiding in his shadow, turned blue and white, and a pair of round eyes that could no longer conceal the shape of a beast showed struggle and entanglement.
Her lips moved, and the long tails swayed behind her, as if she was silently communicating with 'people'. After a while, her eyes widened and she shouted:
"Chen Taiwei, let go of the emperor!"
While speaking, her body suddenly became demonic.
The pink mist gushes out, Concubine Tu's face becomes demonic, a large amount of red hair emerges, her lips and nose protrude, showing the original shape of a demon fox.
Under the nourishment of abundant demonic energy, five thick long tails suddenly emerged from her body.
The long tail was mixed with red light, dancing around, rushing out of a passage amidst the black evil spirit in the sky.
The long red tail reached towards Emperor Shenqi's body, trying to wrap him inside.
"Don't bully the emperor that there is no one around."
"Hmph!" Mrs. Chen snorted lightly.
These long tails interfered with 'him', causing 'he' to give up his plan to take the life of Emperor Shenqi first, and instead grabbed Concubine Tu's tail.
The skeletal hand wrapped in resentment turned into a giant palm with long black mist, a cold color flashed across Chen Taiwei's translucent face, his lips moved, and red light flickered in the palm, a long A half-foot red rune appeared in the palm of 'him'.
'He' took the talisman and gathered the long tails protruding from Concubine Tu together.
As soon as Concubine Tu's long tail was grabbed, the power of the witchcraft in her body was immediately released.
Chen Taiwei hooked his blood-red lips, and let go of his hand, but the five long tails that were held in a bundle by 'him' did not scatter because of 'him' letting go.
Concubine Tu herself didn't expect that she failed to win the battle, not only failed to rescue Emperor Shen Qi, but was restrained immediately after fighting Chen Taiwei.
She is blessed with the evil spirit of the fox king of the demon tribe, forcing her to give birth to two more tails.
But at this time, the two tails had no effect, and the evil spirit was restricted by Taoism, making her helpless.
"You let me go—"
This evil concubine had dealt with Chen Taiwei before, and she almost died at the hands of Chen Taiwei because of her rude words. Fortunately, the fox king saved her life.
At this time, being restrained by Taoism again, the feeling of being on the verge of death is far deeper than last time.
She screamed loudly, Chen Taiwei hooked his fingers and moved his lips:
"rise."
As soon as 'he' finished speaking, a red light flashed on the five tails, and an invisible red light symbol rubbed from the palm of 'him' onto Concubine Tu's long tail, lifting her high.
As Concubine Tu was also mentioned, a fox demon body was forcibly pulled out from that charming woman's body.
Concubine Tu's original body was like an empty skin, falling softly to the ground.
"A little demon like you dares to come to my door to make an axe."'He' sneered:
"I don't have a physical body now. Back then, when my brothers and I caught a monster like you, killed you, bled you, and peeled your skin, you would have a big meal."
The demon fox lost its physical protection and showed its original shape. It was hung upside down and half hung in the air. After hearing the words of 'him', it trembled with fright, and 'Zhizhi' screamed incessantly.
After seeing the seriously injured Liu family, Yao Shouning turned to look for Yao Ruoyun, and asked him to pack his luggage immediately and take his family out of town tomorrow at the latest.
"Brother, you have studied in Zhushan Academy for many years, and you are very familiar with Qingfeng Temple." Yao Shouning reached out to touch his cuff while speaking.
She took out a bulging purse from the narrow sleeve pocket, and handed it to the young man in front of her:
"It contains money notes from Dafeng Bank."
After Liu's injury, the family's original housekeeping power was handed over to Yao Hui, and after Yao Hui returned to the Yamen, the family fell into an embarrassing situation with no one to manage.
Before that, Yao Ruoyun only knew how to study and ignored important family affairs; Yao Wanning used to be weak, so Liu Shi naturally didn't want her to work hard, and now that she was pregnant again, and her delivery was imminent, Yao Shouning also didn't want to bother her with these matters.
And Liu Bingzhou was worried about the 'river god'. Although Su Wenfang was an elder, he was always an outsider. In the end, things were pushed back and forth, and it was Yao Shouning who took the initiative to take over and try to learn.
When she handed over the money, Yao Ruoyun didn't reach out to take it, but stared blankly at her sister for a while.
In his memory, the cute, cute and childish younger sister had grown up at some point, with a mature and steady expression in her eyes, and her demeanor was slightly strange.
"Brother?" Seeing that Yao Ruoyun didn't move, Yao Shouning raised his head to look at him in a daze.
Her expression was a little puzzled, and her dazed look returned to the familiar look.
Yao Ruoyun involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief, with a serious expression, put her hands behind her back, took a few steps back, and shook her head:
"Open your wallet and let me see."
"..."
Yao Shouning didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, but he heard that he obediently untied the purse bag, and took out a thick stack of money notes inside:
"Here, here."
"You unfold the bill." Yao Ruoyun said again as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Are you afraid that I will poison the money?" Yao Shouning rolled his eyes at him, and when he spoke, he unwrapped the bundled money notes. The denomination of the money notes was 20 taels each, and there were about ten pieces in total.
The situation in the past two years has been bad, the Yao family has experienced many times, and there is no surplus in money.
Last year, Liu Bingzhou went to Shendu and brought his savings to solve Liu's urgent needs.
Yao Ruoyun is no longer good at general affairs, but he also knows that this year's Blood Mosquito Gu and floods have caused Yao's family to have only expenses for the past half a year, with little income left.
The shops that Liu's bought earlier were already beyond their means, and the family was struggling. The money that Yao Shouning took out at this time might be the entire property of the Yao family.
Yao Ruoyun's expression suddenly turned ugly, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked:
"What about you and grandfather?"
"..." The relaxed expression on Yao Shouning's face gradually disappeared, she looked up at Yao Ruoyun, and shouted in a daze:
"Big brother."
In her heart, although she looks serious, she has always had a good temper. Yao Ruoyun, who has always been tolerant of her family, suddenly lost her temper:
"Shouning, in your heart, do you think that elder brother is an outsider?"
"It's nothing." Yao Shouning shook her head hastily. She felt the sadness from Yao Ruoyun's voice, and knew that he had guessed something was wrong.
"Then why are you never the first to tell me what happened at home?"
Liu's bewitched that day, the marriage between Yao Wanning and the 'River God', and the matter of Yao Shouning and his son looking for a solution several times later, they knew about it a long time ago, but no one told him, kept him in the dark, let him I can't stop thinking and guessing.
"No..." Yao Shouning realized that his actions had hurt the elder brother's heart, and she was about to solve it, so Yao Ruoyun looked at her sadly:
"You formed a group and pushed me out?"
"No." She shook her head desperately.
"This money is all the property of the family, right?" He seemed to be asking, but in fact he was very sure.
Yao Shouning didn't want to make him worry, but when he met Yao Ruoyun's eyes, he nodded mysteriously:
"……Correct."
"There are still a lot of places to spend money at home. You give me all the money and ask me to take my uncle and Wanning to leave Shendu City first. In other words, you probably think in your heart that we will never come back."
"I..." As soon as Yao Shouning spoke, Yao Ruoyun didn't give her a chance, and said to herself:
"If you don't tell me, I can guess something. You have a strong predictive ability. If you make such a decision, something big must happen."
He just doesn't speak much, and he's not a fool. Combined with some recent things:
"The monster clan is coming? No, it's not just that." He thought for a while, and then affirmed:
"The 'River God' is coming. This time, I am afraid that it is not a warning like the previous flood. It is very likely that the city of God will also be destroyed."
He made a good guess, and said:
"You can predict something bad, maybe you can predict that something will happen to everyone, so you want me to take my family to avoid the gods and escape this catastrophe."
After finishing speaking, he fixedly looked at his sister:
"Grandfather has a righteous heart and is entrusted by the eldest princess. He will definitely not leave. Recently, you were the housekeeper and director of the family. You suddenly handed over the money to me. It is obvious that you are planning to stay with grandfather and want to send us out. "
"..." Yao Shouning's forced smile froze, and her raised hand dropped powerlessly.
From Yao Ruoyun's words, she could already hear that her elder brother disapproved of her, maybe he would not agree to her request.
"No—" she said reluctantly, seeing Yao Ruoyun staring at her, the defense line in her heart suddenly collapsed, and said softly:
"Yes, brother, you are right."
She nodded in acknowledgment:
"I foresaw that the coming of the 'River God' would bring about a crisis of destroying the city of God. If it is not handled properly, my grandfather may—"
She didn't say the rest, but Yao Ruoyun already understood what she meant.
His heart went cold.
Although Yao Shouning had already thought about the worst outcome before Yao Shouning spoke, but when Yao Shouning nodded in recognition, Yao Ruoyun still felt unspeakably panicked.
"How could it be? My grandfather is a great Confucian in the world, and his strength is extraordinary..."
He was a little incoherent, and then saw the water in his sister's eyes, and then he was at a loss:
"Shouning don't cry, don't cry..."
He wanted to coax his sister, but he didn't know what to say for a while, so he just reached out and took the money note in Yao Shouning's hand:
"Don't cry, it's the elder brother's fault. The elder brother shouldn't make you sad." He pursed his lips, trying to wipe away his sister's tears, but in the end he didn't touch her, but said cautiously:
"I just want to know, just want to know the truth of the matter."
"It's my fault. I should tell my elder brother if I have something to say. I shouldn't hide something from my elder brother because I think it's for your own good." Yao Shouning also apologized softly.
After saying these words, the two brothers and sisters looked at each other and smiled, and the original grievances disappeared in an instant.
"Don't worry, since I know what's going on, I will naturally help."
Since there is already a crisis in Shendu City, it is naturally not suitable for Liu's injury to stay.
Yao Wanning was about to give birth again, so she should leave the city. Su Wenfang's family had nothing to do with these disasters, so it was reasonable to take advantage of this opportunity to avoid danger.
Yao Ruoyun took the money and said:
"I'll take the money. Tonight, I'll ask Uncle Zheng to help buy two more carriages, and I'll pack up my luggage. I'll try my best to send him out of the city tomorrow."
Yao Shouning heard the meaning of his words and was about to speak when he said again:
"But I am the eldest son of the family. Although I have no skills, there is no reason to leave you, grandfather and father alone in the city to face the crisis."
"Brother..." Although Yao Shouning guessed his intentions, he was still shocked when he heard him say this, and was about to persuade him, but Yao Ruoyun said:
"Don't persuade me, and I won't listen to you."
He was always young and mature, but now he covered his ears with his hands and did not look into Yao Shouning's eyes:
"Grandfather promised me that depending on my performance, he would accept me as an apprentice. The old man has not kept his promise, so I won't allow it."
He rambled:
"Besides, Dad usually said that I am the eldest son and should protect the mother and sister in the family. There is no reason for me to run away alone and leave you in danger."
After speaking, he was afraid that Yao Shouning would persuade her again, so he loosened his hands covering his ears, looked at her seriously and said:
"Shouning, you just want me to get out of the crisis, but the world is so big, where can I go?"
His words hit the hidden worry in Yao Shouning's heart, making her speechless.
The disaster brought by the 'River God' this time may bring the crisis of destruction to Daqing, the escape at this time is only temporary, as she said with Liu Bingzhou before, even if you can escape for a while, you cannot escape for a lifetime.
If Liu Bingzhou doesn't stand up, all the gods will be destroyed, sooner or later the resentment carried by the 'River God' will sweep the world, the monster clan will follow, Daqing will be destroyed soon, not to mention hiding in Qingfeng Temple, even fleeing to the ends of the earth.
On the contrary, if Liu Bingzhou resists, then all the crises will be solved naturally, and the Yao family will always return to their old place.
Fortunately, although Yao Ruojun insisted on staying and sharing the adversity with his family, he was not an ignorant person, and he agreed to send his family out of the city first, which made Yao Shouning heave a sigh of relief.
In the evening, Liu Bingzhou adjusted his clothes, entered the inner city, and asked for enlightenment.
And Yao Shouning stayed at home to accompany Yao Wanning to pack his luggage, a little absent-minded.
Before Liu Bingzhou left, she predicted that her grandfather's trip would not go well. Emperor Shen Qi had a violent temper, and there was an extremely dangerous Chen Taiwei beside her. She originally wanted to accompany her grandfather, but was rejected by Liu Bingzhou.
It was getting dark little by little.
It’s approaching July, so normally the days are long and the nights are short, but I don’t know if it’s because of the large number of deaths in Shendu City recently, which caused many people to burn joss sticks, paper money, and green smoke, so it gets dark early every day.
Yao Wanning doesn't have many personal belongings. Except for her usual clothes, she doesn't like to dress up. Jewelry, grease, etc. are pitifully scarce, and the rest of the boxes are only filled with some books she usually reads.
"Miss, these books are a bit damp."
Qing Yuan, who helped her pack things, came over with a stack of books and asked in a low voice.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Mallow took out the torch and prepared to light the fire.
But she blew a few breaths in succession, the fire pocket only flashed a few sparks, and it took a long while for the fire to light up, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"The weather is so humid recently." She muttered:
"It's not just the book tide. When I tidy up the sheets and bedding, it's also very humid. I don't know when the sun will come out. I have to dry it out."
She had no intention of speaking, but the two sisters listened with intention.
Yao Wanning bit her lower lip, and subconsciously glanced at her sister, but saw Yao Shouning frowning. Both sisters knew that it was not easy for the sun to rise again.
If this catastrophe cannot be avoided, it may be difficult to see the sun rise again in the future.
"I……"
Yao Wanning sighed, Yao Shouning suddenly said:
"Don't take bed sheets and bedding, there must be bedding for pilgrims in Qingfeng Temple."
Her heart was beating wildly, and an uneasy premonition came to her heart:
"Let's travel lightly and leave the city at speed."
Yao Wanning's heart tightened, she touched her stomach, but said nothing.
Qing Yuan said:
"But Miss is used to sleeping on the sheets at home, so I'm afraid..."
In the past, Mrs. Liu took good care of her daughter.
Yao Wanning's body is weak, and she has been very particular about clothing since she was a snack, and she has also developed a cautious character of Qing Yuan and Bai Yu who serve her.
"There is no need to pack up and prepare."
Yao Wanning shook her head, and as soon as she finished speaking, she saw that her younger sister was a little surprised, she turned her head and was about to speak, she quickly said:
"Shouning, do you think my grandfather's business will go smoothly when he enters the inner city?"
Her words just hit Yao Shouning's hidden worries. Although she knew that Yao Wanning's words were just changing the subject, she had already made up her mind, and she still shook her head when she heard the words:
"I do not know."
Liu Bingzhou's trip was not smooth.
He entered the inner city, but Emperor Shenqi did not see him.
In the Daqing Palace, the old emperor was half leaning on the couch, and the extraordinarily beautiful Concubine Tu stood behind him, stretching out a pair of jade hands painted with Danko, pinching his shoulders and neck for him.
"This old thing."
Emperor Shenqi snorted coldly:
"When I wanted to see him that day, I pushed back and forth, relying on being a great Confucian, so I didn't take me seriously." His cheeks were thin, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and there was a dark look between his eyebrows and eyes:
"Now he sees me whenever he wants, thinking that the palace is his Nanzhao's dilapidated house?"
He has a narrow temperament and holds grudges very much, thinking of the humiliation of being rejected when he summoned Liu Bingzhou several times, an impulse to kill came in his heart.
"No, no see!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of gasping for air from a palace official next to his ear.
I saw several palace servants and servants on duty at the gate of the palace seemed to be attracted by some strange scene, and looked up subconsciously.
Emperor Shenqi's rule was mean and ungrateful, and his methods were harsh. All the servants in the palace were very worried, fearing that something might go wrong. Naturally, such a change at this time was not quite right.
At this moment, Concubine Tu said:
"Your Majesty, this concubine has smelled a sense of righteousness." When she spoke, a look of disgust appeared on her charming face.
700 years ago, Zhang Fuchen and others, headed by Confucianism and Taoism, were once the nemesis of demons and evils. They killed many demons with great righteousness, so the demons hated and feared Confucianism.
Concubine Tu is a member of the Heavenly Demon and Fox Clan, and her resentment towards the power of Confucianism has long been deeply rooted in her bones.
As soon as she finished speaking, Emperor Shen Qi heard the crisp birdsong in his ears.
'Huh——' A gust of wind blows into the hall, and accompanied by the long chants of the birds, a palm-sized paper crane drags a long golden light, vibrates its wings, and comes straight to the direction of Emperor Shenqi.
The paper bird is surrounded by golden light, it rubs against the air and turns into gold powder, if you look at it coldly, it will rush straight towards it as if carrying the light of fire.
Emperor Shenqi himself was vicious, so he judged others by himself, and immediately a thought came to his mind: Liu Bingzhou wanted to murder his own life!
Today is different from the past, he has already abdicated himself, and no longer has a real dragon to protect his body. Even though he is in front of a paper bird the size of a palm, his face is still pale with fright, and his body 'jumps' up, trying to retreat.
He moved swiftly, and Concubine Tu behind him didn't even react. When he bumped into her, the two of them fell to the ground.
"Escort! Escort!"
Emperor Shenqi didn't care about falling, and stretched out his hand and shouted repeatedly.
Feng Zhen, who was on the side, saw something bad, and immediately stepped forward, but before he could make a move, he saw the paper bird stop when it was about two steps away from Emperor Shenqi.
'boom! '
The golden glow on the bird's body turned into flames, and Liu Bingzhou's shadow appeared in front of Emperor Shenqi, with folded hands, bowing to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Daqing is at stake now, and the 'River God' is in trouble, and now it's coming again..."
Emperor Shenqi put his hand on his chest, and Concubine Tu, who was pressed under him, keenly sensed the messy impact of 'bang bang, bang bang' coming from his chest.
His heartbeat was too fast, and something was wrong.
With Yaozu's extraordinary hearing ability, she seemed to hear two inner voices hidden under the chest of Emperor Shen Qi.
"Bang bang bang bang bang—" A random beating, fast and urgent.
'Bang - bang - bang -' and the other one was unhurried, as if very rhythmic, corresponding to it.
This situation is quite weird, Concubine Tu has never noticed it before.
At the moment when these two heartbeats sounded, she sensed a change in the spiritual energy around her. In the hall, the surrounding light was distorted, and Chen Taiwei's thin and tall figure stepped out of the distorted light and shadow, appearing in front of everyone.
Seeing this scene, Concubine Tu's eyes flickered, realizing that she might have discovered some kind of secret, she didn't make a sound, but secretly decided to inform the Fox King of the situation, and the Fox King would find out.
As soon as Chen Taiwei entered the palace, he saw Emperor Shen Qi slumped behind the long couch, as if facing a formidable enemy.
The palace was filled with golden light, and the awe-inspiring righteousness of Confucianism washed away the ghost fox spirit that seemed to be hidden in the palace.
Liu Bingzhou's figure appeared in the midair like a reflection in the water, with his hands folded, he bowed to Emperor Shenqi.
"..." The condensed breath on Chen Taiwei's body stagnated, and then he couldn't laugh or cry.
700 years ago, what a hero and hero the fourth brother was. Who would have thought that 700 years later, there would be such an idiot emperor in the blood of his descendants?
As he rolled his eyes, there was sarcasm in his eyes, and then he folded his arms around his chest and stood to one side to watch the play.
"National teacher, save me—" Emperor Shenqi saw him coming, as if seeing a savior.
But the next moment, the attack he imagined did not come, Liu Bingzhou looked at Emperor Shen Qi, and continued:
"This is the time when Daqing is in crisis. Faced with such a situation, I think..."
He made three suggestions.
[-]. He believes that the monsters who were captured by the magician before were not completely evil, and it is very likely that they were only temporarily affected by the monsters, and their minds were blinded.
Their evil spirit invaded their lungs and did hurtful things. With the passage of time, there is a high probability that they will return to normal. Emperor Shenqi killed a large number of people recklessly, which hurt the peace of heaven.
Those who were beheaded died wronged, harbored resentment in their hearts, and were unwilling to reconcile after death. Maybe the resentment would cause trouble and bring crisis to Daqing.
Therefore, he suggested that Emperor Shen Qi open the door and stop the killing, so as to observe the follow-up.
If these people gradually regain consciousness, I hope that Emperor Shenqi will release the innocent people so that they can go home and reunite with their relatives; if these people are still affected by the evil spirit, they will continue to be imprisoned.
[-]. The "River God" will come on the [-]th day of the seventh month, which is the day when rumors say that the gate of hell is open, and the yin energy is at its peak.
The "River God" is originally a demon, and Yin Qi is like a tiger with wings for him. Once he enters the city of the gods, the consequences will be disastrous, so he wants to ask the god Qidi to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, invite the little emperor, and borrow the dragon who protects the country. The power to protect the capital of the gods together.
And the third point is also the main reason why Liu Bingzhou went to the imperial city today.
The 'River God' is coming in a menacing manner, and its momentum is extremely unstoppable. In order to avoid causing innocent casualties, he hopes that the emperor will come forward and use the power of the Zhenmagic Division, the Prison Division, and the five city soldiers and horses in the city to kill most of the people in the city. move away.
This is not an easy task.
People at this time pay attention to putting down roots. Many people have lived in the capital of the gods for generations. Will come forward to solve it.
Therefore, if they appealed in good spirits, most of the people might not leave, but if the court stepped forward and forced everyone to move, the matter would be much easier. Eight days would surely prevent many casualties and relieve Liu Bingzhou's pressure.
After raising these three points, he waited for Emperor Shenqi's reply.
Emperor Shen Qi, who was trembling with fear before, thinking that he was forcibly breaking into the palace city to do something wrong, came to his senses, and after listening to him finish speaking, he saw himself falling to the ground, covered in a mess.
There are palace people, Feng Zhen, Concubine Tu, Chen Taiwei and others around, and he yelled and screamed before, showing his ugliness and lacking the majesty of an emperor.
Emperor Shenqi felt great hatred in his heart, murderous intent flickered in his eyes, and he said angrily:
"Bold Liu Bingzhou, are you relying on your strange skills to force your way into the palace and act recklessly?"
He snapped:
"You are just an old Confucian in Nanzhao. You have neither fame nor merit to the country. If you think you have become a great Confucian, you don't take Daqing and I seriously! This is a capital offense!"
'laugh. '
Chen Taiwei watched the whole process, and suddenly laughed.
The huge hall was originally so quiet that a needle could be heard falling, when the palace servants and servants saw that Emperor Shen Qi was angry, they all trembled, lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound.
The laughter of the young national teacher fell into everyone's ears, and everyone could hear it clearly.
The palace servants and servants on duty lost their legs and fell to their knees.
Emperor Shenqi felt ashamed, and his killing intent became even stronger.
At this time, he not only had killing intent towards Liu Bingzhou, but also hated Chen Taiwei to the core.
"Bold Chen Taiwei..."
"Zihou, why bother?" Chen Taiwei didn't pay attention to Emperor Shenqi's anger, he just turned his head to look at the aged Liu Bingzhou, and through his face, he thought of the Zhang who had a brief encounter with him back then. Forgive me.
That was a character, smart, elegant, and with a determination rarely seen among scholars, he was somewhat similar to Zhang Fuchen in his memory.
When he learned that Zhang Raozhi was the descendant of Zhang Fuchen, he became interested in associating with this person and formed a relationship.
It's a pity that he also understands that his search may be just like a mirror, and even if the people he sees overlap with the old people back then, the past can no longer be recalled.
He just couldn't really let go of the past, trying to use these things to find those good memories from 700 years ago.
No matter how good Zhang Raozhi is, he is not Zhang Fuchen.
Realizing that his actions were futile, he no longer had a deep friendship with Zhang Raozhi, only met twice, and was willing to sell him a favor.
Because of this relationship, he had a good impression of Liu Bingzhou, even though in Liu Bingzhou's heart, the two may have different positions, but Chen Taiwei never spoke ill of him, and he was always polite, like an old friend.
"You love the world loyally, and you have said so much, but what is the use of saying these things when you are faced with a puddle of mud that you can't help?"
He said with some doubts:
"You are so smart, you should understand the truth that human nature is inherently evil. As an emperor, you have experienced the taint of power, and you have all the evil in human nature..."
"Bold Chen Taiwei!" Emperor Shenqi became furious and beat his chest hard, making a 'bang bang' sound:
"Don't think that I can't do anything about you."
He was greedy for life and afraid of death, but the two beatings were extremely hard.
Every time he hit, his chest echoed, but the strange thing was that he obviously hit himself, but when he hit him for the first time, Chen Taiwei's body shook violently as if he had been hit hard, and even had an afterimage.
When Emperor Shenqi's fist fell to his chest for the second time, Chen Taiwei's body was smashed by a stone like a projection in the water.
His body turned into dust and scattered, revealing a white skeleton standing on the spot!
The terrifying yin and evil spirit dissipated, and the candlelight in the hall was rushed by the evil spirit, and the light of the flames was actually reduced by half.
The flames turned from bright yellow to dark green, and the hall was full of ghostly winds and ghosts.
"what!"
Concubine Tu was shocked by this evil spirit and almost showed her original shape.
The long tail came out from under her skirt and almost wrapped around the body of Emperor Shen Qi.
She was so shocked that her face paled, and she quickly pressed the hem of her skirt to control her breath.
On the wall at the back of the hall, several long tails hung down from the back and the roof of the hall. Fortunately, everyone was attracted by Chen Taiwei, as if no one had noticed her strangeness. respite.
The skeleton seemed to be in extreme pain after being hit hard, its spine bent, and its head drooped.
There was a 'crack' sound when the bones collided, but 'him' opened and closed his jaw and made a weird laugh of 'huh huh'.
Feng Zhen's pupils shrank sharply, remembering that the last time he saw the phantom of the ghost on the national teacher's body, he thought it was not his own illusion.
No one expected that the national teacher who was revered by Emperor Shenqi would be the incarnation of a ghost!
But he was loyal and loyal, knowing that Chen Taiwei was in danger, he did not dodge, but seeing that Emperor Shenqi was afraid, he stood in front of Emperor Shenqi bravely and shouted:
"Escort!"
Several servants of Zhenmasi who were so frightened out of their wits barely stood up, and tremblingly stood beside Emperor Shenqi.
'laugh. '
The skull opened and closed its mouth and sneered.
"A majestic king of a country is no match for a few servants in terms of bravery and courage."
'He' turned his head, a pair of dark and empty eye sockets 'looked' at Liu Bingzhou:
"Zihou, you were taught by Zhang Raozhi, you should be a smart person, how could you do such a foolish thing?"
"You are dedicated to serving the public, what's the use of earnestly speaking? Knowing that there is a south wall, but you want to hit your head and bleed, why bother?"
There is no flesh on the skeleton's cheek, but the tone of 'him' reveals bewilderment:
"You have become a great Confucianist, so what does the life and death of ordinary people have to do with you? Even if the world falls, the evil spirits return, and you live in seclusion in the mountains, you can still live comfortably and happily, far better than today."
"The awakening of Shouning's blood has become a trend. Your Yao family still holds the heart of Confucianism and Taoism left by Zhang Raozhi. Sooner or later, you will be able to cultivate a second great Confucian." 'He' said bluntly:
"Two great Confucian scholars, a descendant of the Bianji clan, are enough to protect the safety of the Yao family, so why bother to suffer such idleness?"
"Look, there is only such a waste left in the Zhu Dynasty, can he listen to your words?" 'He' pointed to Emperor Shenqi.
"Chen Taiwei, how dare you insult me!"
Emperor Shenqi's face turned red, and Chen Taiwei regarded it as a great shame and humiliation when he was accused by Chen Taiwei. He was furious in his heart, and he beat his chest hard again, making a loud noise.
Every heavy sound seems to be connected to Chen Taiwei's remains. Amidst the sound of the pounding, the standing skeleton made the sound of bone shattering.
'Crack-crack--'
A series of cracks appeared on the skeleton's body, 'his' spine was broken, and his upper body fell backward.
But at this moment, black air escaped from 'his' body, and the skeleton body that was originally folded backwards stood upright under the 'support' of the black air.
'He' seemed to be irritated, and a translucent figure suddenly appeared in the black air.
That shadow has disheveled hair, thin cheeks, and slender eyes, which is completely different from the original Chen Taiwei's appearance.
It's a pity that the face that should have been beautiful, now surrounded by black air, looks ghostly.
The soul of 'him' was combined with the skeleton, and he turned around without hesitation, and that soul turned into a connected afterimage, and rushed straight to the face of Emperor Shenqi.
"I dare to die, do you dare?!"
The ghost sneered again and again, and a face that was emitting black energy was directly pressed against the face of Emperor Shen Qi:
"You kill me immediately, I will take your life!"
While speaking, a pair of ghost claws stretched out and grabbed Emperor Shenqi by the neck.
Seeing sweat on Feng Zhen's forehead, he immediately drew out his dagger and chopped at 'his' arm.
The specially made dagger sliced through the ghost's shadow, and it landed on the bone of the skeleton's arm with a 'dang'. When the two collided, there was a sound of gold and jade clashing.
Zhenmasi's weapons couldn't break Chen Taiwei's dharma body. Emperor Shenqi could easily make Chen Taiwei show his true colors before, obviously he had grasped his weakness.
Yinhun ignored Feng Zhen's movements, grabbed Emperor Shenqi's neck with both hands, and lifted the emperor high like a chicken.
"National Teacher, National Teacher, don't kill me..."
The emperor's face turned from red to white, he lifted his feet off the ground, and faced the ghostly face in front of him, it was like being poured a bucket of cold water on his head in an instant, and the anger in his heart was extinguished immediately.
Chen Taiwei's ghost body form flew up with Shen Qidi at the same time, and the black air lingered around 'him' and on the tip of his hair, pulling 'him' hair extremely long, like long algae flying in the sky in the sea, pulling 'him' The body is wrapped in it.
This makes the image of "him" even more terrifying, like a ghost.
The howling of the dark wind in the hall was mixed with the screams and begging for mercy of Emperor Shen Qi.
"National Teacher, National Teacher, please forgive me."
"We all died together—"
"We all die together!"
Chen Taiwei's voice was gloomy and cold, Feng Zhen and the others saw that the situation was not good, and each used their magical powers to slash at the ghost of 'him'.
"The strength of Zhenmensi is really not as good as every year."
'He' snorted coldly:
"That year, when my fourth brother handed over Zhenmagic Division to the second brother's hands, the second brother's elite soldiers united together, and even I had to give in. Wherever they went, the evil spirits were terrified, and they all avoided them."
"The demons belong to yin, and they have justice in their hearts. Only warriors who are passionate and full of yang can restrain them accordingly. Only by cooperating with my second brother's martial arts can we get twice the result with half the effort." Amidst the hum of 'he', a strand of long hair seemed to understand 'he' With the intention of "嗖", the detective's "嗖" turned into a thick tentacle in an instant, rolled up the loyal Feng Zhen by the waist, threw it into the air and hit the roof of the hall!
The impact was so powerful that the beams on the roof of the hall broke, the glazed tiles shattered, and the 'ping pong' fell to the ground.
A big hole was knocked out of the gorgeous and extraordinary roof, the black long touch loosened, and Feng Zhen vomited blood and fell to the ground.
'He''s long hair turned into countless tentacles, flying in the hall, and wherever he went, the people of Zhenmensi were frightened and dodged crazily.
"Right now, you, Zhu Dingchen, regard Zhenmagic as your lackey, appointing servants, incomplete and incomplete, and acting viciously. How can you talk about justice and masculinity?"
The more he talked, the more angry he became, every tentacle randomly grabbed people, no matter who they were, and smashed them indiscriminately, destroying the hall in an instant.
Not only that, Chen Taiwei also stretched out a snow-white jade-like skeleton hand, and reached for Emperor Shenqi's chest:
"You think you've got my weakness and want to use it to blackmail me, but I have a bad temper and I don't like being blackmailed the most. I used to play with you, do you think I'm really afraid of you?"
"No, no..."
When Emperor Shenqi saw 'him' move, he screamed in horror.
Chen Taiwei's bone fingers touched the old emperor's clothes, and the brocade clothes were stained with the black air between 'his' bones and fingers, and instantly ignited black flames.
Not only was the fire not hot, but it was cold to the bone, and its power was astonishing.
A hole the size of a bowl was opened in the clothes, exposing Emperor Shenqi's pale and thin chest.
'Boom—boom——'
'Boom boom boom. '
In the chest cavity, there were two heartbeats, one after another, beating non-stop.
"Hehehehehe—" Chen Taiwei laughed loudly.
At this time, the image of 'him' looked terribly frightening, with long hair flying around, almost paving the way for the entire messy hall, holding up the figure of 'him' and Emperor Shen Qi.
Murderous and Yin Qi coexist, 'his' bone finger pressed down.
'Porphyrin'.
The moment Shen Qidi's chest touched the bone finger, a black spot suddenly appeared.
The black spot was like a mold, spreading around at an extremely fast speed. Emperor Shenqi was no longer an emperor, without the body of a dragon. As the black spot spread, the flesh and blood on his chest dried up quickly, like a layer of fried paste. The flour will crumble when lightly pressed.
"Ah!!!" He let out a terrific scream, only then did he realize that Chen Taiwei really wanted to die with him.
"National teacher don't kill me, national teacher don't kill me, if you touch it, you will die too—"
He didn't expect Chen Taiwei's temperament to be so crazy and extreme. The savior he thought he had summoned, but at this moment he disagreed with each other and became a demon who wanted to take his life.
The old emperor knew that such words would not be able to threaten Chen Taiwei who was in a murderous situation, but he was helpless.
Amidst the miserable howling, Chen Taiwei's fingers were as sharp as a blade, and he cut open his chest, revealing the inside.
His chest was wide open, and the strange thing was that all the blood was sealed up, and blood vessels, heart and lungs were all clearly visible.
This scene was extremely frightening, and Emperor Shenqi was so frightened that he was out of his body, and could only groan in pain.
In addition to the entangled blood vessels, there were indeed two parallel hearts hanging in the emperor's chest. At this time, the two hearts seemed to be unable to feel the crisis, and they were still beating non-stop.
"Ahhhhh!!!" The emperor's miserable howls were endless.
At this moment, Concubine Tu's face, who was originally hiding in his shadow, turned blue and white, and a pair of round eyes that could no longer conceal the shape of a beast showed struggle and entanglement.
Her lips moved, and the long tails swayed behind her, as if she was silently communicating with 'people'. After a while, her eyes widened and she shouted:
"Chen Taiwei, let go of the emperor!"
While speaking, her body suddenly became demonic.
The pink mist gushes out, Concubine Tu's face becomes demonic, a large amount of red hair emerges, her lips and nose protrude, showing the original shape of a demon fox.
Under the nourishment of abundant demonic energy, five thick long tails suddenly emerged from her body.
The long tail was mixed with red light, dancing around, rushing out of a passage amidst the black evil spirit in the sky.
The long red tail reached towards Emperor Shenqi's body, trying to wrap him inside.
"Don't bully the emperor that there is no one around."
"Hmph!" Mrs. Chen snorted lightly.
These long tails interfered with 'him', causing 'he' to give up his plan to take the life of Emperor Shenqi first, and instead grabbed Concubine Tu's tail.
The skeletal hand wrapped in resentment turned into a giant palm with long black mist, a cold color flashed across Chen Taiwei's translucent face, his lips moved, and red light flickered in the palm, a long A half-foot red rune appeared in the palm of 'him'.
'He' took the talisman and gathered the long tails protruding from Concubine Tu together.
As soon as Concubine Tu's long tail was grabbed, the power of the witchcraft in her body was immediately released.
Chen Taiwei hooked his blood-red lips, and let go of his hand, but the five long tails that were held in a bundle by 'him' did not scatter because of 'him' letting go.
Concubine Tu herself didn't expect that she failed to win the battle, not only failed to rescue Emperor Shen Qi, but was restrained immediately after fighting Chen Taiwei.
She is blessed with the evil spirit of the fox king of the demon tribe, forcing her to give birth to two more tails.
But at this time, the two tails had no effect, and the evil spirit was restricted by Taoism, making her helpless.
"You let me go—"
This evil concubine had dealt with Chen Taiwei before, and she almost died at the hands of Chen Taiwei because of her rude words. Fortunately, the fox king saved her life.
At this time, being restrained by Taoism again, the feeling of being on the verge of death is far deeper than last time.
She screamed loudly, Chen Taiwei hooked his fingers and moved his lips:
"rise."
As soon as 'he' finished speaking, a red light flashed on the five tails, and an invisible red light symbol rubbed from the palm of 'him' onto Concubine Tu's long tail, lifting her high.
As Concubine Tu was also mentioned, a fox demon body was forcibly pulled out from that charming woman's body.
Concubine Tu's original body was like an empty skin, falling softly to the ground.
"A little demon like you dares to come to my door to make an axe."'He' sneered:
"I don't have a physical body now. Back then, when my brothers and I caught a monster like you, killed you, bled you, and peeled your skin, you would have a big meal."
The demon fox lost its physical protection and showed its original shape. It was hung upside down and half hung in the air. After hearing the words of 'him', it trembled with fright, and 'Zhizhi' screamed incessantly.
