Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 154 Zhiqiong, Don't Cry

In front of the palace gate, Chu Xin stepped on his red neck and spat on his face.

Ju Chi tried to struggle, but Chu Xin twisted his toes, and broke Zu Chi's neck.

A third-grade cultivator can't die even if his neck is broken. Chu Xin summoned two onmyojis, sealed the mouth with a magic circle, and then led his troops to the Canglong Hall.

The Battle of the Palace ended, and Liang Yuming was defeated miserably.

He fled back to the mansion first in the carriage, quietly waiting for news from Beiyuan.

I didn't lose, I haven't lost yet!
And the old ancestor, wait for the old ancestor to kill Wu Xu, let the old ancestor eat tens of thousands of people, and then go to the palace to kill that stupid king!

A moth floated over, flapping its wings near Liang Yuming's ear.

Liang Yuming received news from Beiyuan.

He took off his dragon robe, threw it into the brazier, and burned it to ashes in an instant.

……

Outside the city wall, Zhong Shen wiped the blood off his body, and smiled at Yu Shan in front of him.

Yu Shan was the first to rush down to the top of the city, led the Flying Eagle Army, and directly killed the general of the rebel army.

The rebel army had no leader, and they collapsed in an instant, with [-] horses, more than [-] were killed, and the rest surrendered.

Yu Shan leaned over and saluted: "Commander, can this battle be worthwhile?"

Zhong Shen laughed loudly and said: "What do you mean by making meritorious deeds? You have made great achievements, and it is your turn to do it for the general of the Wuwei camp."

Shi Xun was not happy to be around. He thought that he would be able to rely on others by clinging to Yu Shan, but he did not expect that his position would be robbed by him, and the official reinstatement would be hopeless.

A sergeant walked up to Zhong Can and whispered something in his ear. Zhong Can was taken aback, then turned to Yu Shan and said, "You are here to clean the battlefield and count the prisoners. I have other important things to do."

……

In Anshuyuan, Emperor Zhaoxing looked at the extinguished candles and laughed loudly.

"Wu Xu! Rebel! You still died before me!"

Sui Zhi said: "I don't know how the Yuan'e star is doing."

"Wu Xu is the strongest person in the world, and now he is fighting to the death, even if Yuan E Xing does not die, at most there will be a broken body."

"The three elders of Canglong Palace are still alive."

"Let them live a little longer, so as not to disturb the true god, it is not too late, let's start."

Empress Chai Qiuci walked into the inner courtyard of Anshu Courtyard and pulled a piece of root from the locust tree.

The locust tree sang a mournful song:

"My hatred, who knows?
Who will solve my injustice?

My hatred has no end!

My blood is still wet!

I kill! "

Emperor Zhaoxing looked at the locust tree expressionlessly: "You hate me so much after being married?"

"I kill!"

The queen grabbed the roots of the locust tree with both hands, and tore it hard, the locust tree wailed repeatedly, and blood oozed from her body.

Emperor Zhaoxing sucked all the blood into his mouth along the roots, his body continued to swell, and a burst of rotten air rippling around.

The queen let go of the roots and arranged a barrier around Emperor Zhaoxing, turning the rotten qi into yin and yang qi, which dissipated with the wind.

The blood kept flowing, and the locust tree turned into a rotten tree amidst the howling sound.

……

In Longtu Pavilion, the prince felt a sharp pain in his chest.

He knew what happened, blood poured into his pupils, and his eyes became blood red.

Chen Shuncai looked at the prince and said, "Your Highness, do you feel unwell?"

The crown prince nodded: "It was only when I exerted too much force that I felt a little stuffy in my chest."

Chen Shuncai has worked in the palace for many years and knows that such things are very dangerous: "Hurry up, hurry up, send the imperial physician, Your Highness, why are you bothering? The concubines of the Eastern Palace are always around day and night, why bother to fight for this moment?"

Liang Yuyao sarcastically said: "Prince take care of your body, indulge in wine and sex is not the way of a king!"

The crown prince looked at Liang Yuyao with bright eyes: "Sixth sister, I'm tired, go rest with me!"

Liang Yuyao was furious: "You have insulted each other several times, what do you want?"

The prince smiled and said: "Don't deny it, do you really miss me in your heart? Are you not happy to see me?"

Liang Yuyao got up angrily and fought with the prince.

The prince endured the pain in his heart and played with Liang Yuyao.

……

In Li Qi Tea House, Li Shabai's brush fell to the ground.

Under the curtain, the two women are still posing, but Li Shabai can't draw any more.

He Fang said from the side: "Painter Li, are you tired?"

Li Shabai shook his head, waved his hand, let the two girls put on their clothes, and left the studio.

Seeing that there was no one else in the painting workshop, He Fang asked: "The painter is in a hurry to call He to the tea workshop. I don't know why?"

Li Shabai coughed and said, "To save His Highness."

He Fang was startled: "What does the painter mean by this?"

Li Shabai said: "Your Highness has been monitoring Liu Xuxing's outer house, right?"

He Fang nodded and said: "Don't hide it from the painter, this is the order of the master."

"There will be a fierce battle in Beiyuan tonight. If His Highness doesn't leave, his life may be in danger."

"The painter's words are serious," He Fang said with a smile, "I know that Lantern Lang encountered a member of the Gu sect and fell into a hard fight, but it won't hurt me in the end."

"Lang Lantern? A member of the Gu Sect?" Li Shabai shook his head and said, "Did you smell the bloody smell? Many people died in Beiyuan, and many people died in the east of the city!"

He Fang asked in surprise, "Who are they?"

Li Shabai didn't answer, and continued, "Did you smell that breath? A star has fallen."

"Could it be that evil star?" He Fang exclaimed, "Who has the ability to defeat that evil star?"

"A third-rank also fell, such a powerful third-rank, it's hard to find that kind of aura among mortals, and it's only one step away from the star official."

"Wu Xu?" He Fang's heart trembled, "I don't know what happened to that idiot Xu Zhiqiong."

Li Shabai tore off the half-drawn scroll, took out a new roll of paper, closed his eyes and meditated.

He wanted to outline the picture, but after two strokes, his fingers trembled again, leaving a mess of ink marks on the scroll.

"Painter, what's wrong with you?"

Li Shabai coughed repeatedly: "Someone has been promoted, such a powerful aura, either second rank or third rank!"

He Fang was shocked, why did so many things happen that night?
"Do you know who the artist is?"

"The aura is weird, and the Daoist sect has no way to speculate, let alone who it is." Li Shabai curled up, coughed twice, "There is a fishy smell, like killing Dao, and there is a bit more yin, it should be a member of the Yinyang sect."

"Third grade Yin and Yang, could it be Han Chen?" He Fang frowned, "He has a fourth grade cultivation, so he wants to compete with Tai Bu!
Or is Tai Bu promoted to the second rank? "

……

In the Canglong Hall, the three elders were covered in bruises. Liang Shilu and Liang Gongping were lying on the ground unable to move. Liang Jixiong barely sat on the stone steps. Every time he took a breath, some blood froth came out of the corners of his mouth.

"General Chu, how is Your Majesty's condition?"

Chu Xin shook his head and said: "Without His Majesty's will, no one is allowed to enter the palace, and I can only lead the soldiers to guard the palace gate, and dare not take half a step inside."

Liang Jixiong sighed: "General Chu, you have been wronged. It's not that His Majesty can't trust you. The situation is critical, and His Majesty has no choice but to do so."

Chu Xin said with a smile: "As a subject, how can you care about these things, Second Elder, if you can still walk, go to the palace to have a look in person."

Liang Jixiong was a little dissatisfied, he was ranked second among the elders, but the title "Second Elder" was very impolite, and the accurate title was Elder Shengwei.

That's all, why bother with a martial artist.

Liang Jixiong stood up, and just took two steps when his body trembled and he almost fell down.

Chu Xin stepped forward to support him and said, "Second Elder, if you can't leave, I'll find someone to carry you there."

This fellow speaks so ugly!

Where did the air come from just now?
Such a fierce aura, could it be that someone has been promoted?

Who is this person?

Liang Jixiong raised his head and looked at Chu Dao: "Can the general notice a surge of energy?"

Chu Xin touched his scalp and said, "What aura?"

Not every third grade of Taoism is so sensitive.

Especially this vulgar warrior!

Shengde Elder Liang Shilu shouted: "It's Yin and Yang, there's no mistake!"

Liang Gongping, the elder of Shengren, shouted: "Send people to surround the Yinyang Division quickly, Taibo will be promoted to the second rank!"

Liang Jixiong said to Chu Dao: "General, bring the sergeants and surround the Yin Yang Division with me!"

……

In the Department of Yin and Yang, the blue light flickered.

Tai Bu, who was staring at the astrological disk, shuddered, carefully feeling the fineness of Qi.

"Third rank! Someone has been promoted to third rank! Could it be him..." Tai Bu is very sensitive to Qi, and will not misjudge the quality of Qi like the three elders. He is sure that it is the third rank.

"What kind of qi mechanism is this? Why is it disguised as yin and yang? Is it another law of chaos? Could it be..."

Tai Bu sat silently for a long time, and finally figured out everything.

It was discovered before that there was someone in the capital who had a great talent and was promoted strangely, but that person was not Yu Shan.

That person was not Xu Zhiqiong either.

That man is Emperor Zhaoxing!

He was about to be promoted to the third rank, and he was discovered!

The royal family cannot pass the seventh rank. In order to cover up the truth, he must find the best time.

Wu Xu, the strongest mortal in the world, has fallen.

The three elders of the Canglong Hall fought bloody battles, and their lives were at stake.

The other three ranks are either insensitive, or ignore world affairs, or are entangled by war.

This is the best time, no one can stop him from being promoted tonight.

Emperor Zhaoxing, Liang Daguan's family, everything is under your control.

Tai Bu couldn't help trembling, gritted his teeth and said, "After all, it's you!"

But why pretend to be Yin and Yang?
While thinking, the silver bell on the door rang.

An Onmyoji came to report: "Master, Chu Xin led troops to surround the Onmyoji!"

With a wave of his hand, Tai Bu overturned the case in front of him.

Thief!Everyone is your pawn, and you still want to blame me!

……

Jiang Feili rushed to Beiyuan, looked at the ruins all over the floor, and looked at Lantern Lantern who was crying.

She stepped forward and asked Qiao Shungang, "What happened?"

Qiao Shun just cried and couldn't speak.

She asked Qu Jinshan again: "Old Lantern Guard, what happened here?"

Qu Jinshan cried: "A thousand households, a thousand households..."

"You mean Chen Qianhu?"

"Wu Qianhu, we Qianhu..."

Everyone was crying, and no one could utter a complete sentence.

Only one person does not cry.

Xu Zhiqiong didn't cry, he rummaged through the broken bricks and tiles.

"Zhiqiong, tell me something, where did Wu Qianhu go, where did you Qianhu go!" Jiang Feili burst into tears, and she realized something.

Xu Zhiqiong remained silent, his hands were covered with blood, and he rummaged through the rocks.

"Xu Zhiqiong, are you so deaf? Did you hear me!" Jiang Feili grabbed Xu Zhiqiong.

Xu Zhiqiong gently pushed Jiang Feili away. He found a small piece of bone among the broken bricks, and carefully put it away in his clothes.

He picks up bones for Qianhu.

He collected the corpse for Qianhu.

Looking at the broken bones in the skirt, Jiang Feili tremblingly asked: "This, this is, you Qianhu?"

Xu Zhiqiong remained silent.

Jiang Feili collapsed on the ground, hissing and crying.

It was hard to hold back the tears when I lowered my head.

Xu Zhiqiong gritted his teeth, his eyes were wet.

A group of people rushed over from a distance, and the eunuch Chen Shuncai, the supervisor of rituals, got off his horse and frowned, "What happened here? Why are there so many corpses?"

As soon as Xu Zhiqiong gritted his teeth, the tears in his eyes were instantly withdrawn.

Chen Shuncai waited for a while, but no one responded, he cleared his throat and said: "Lang Laneng listens to the order, and immediately returns to the Lantern Yamen, waiting for dispatch!"

Xu Zhiqiong raised his head, looked at Chen Shuncai and said, "Wait for a while, I'll collect the corpses for our thousand households."

Chen Shuncai frowned and said, "Xu Denglang, don't you know what an imperial decree is?"

"Chen Bingbi, just for a while, it won't take much time." Xu Zhiqiong showed a smile.

You have to laugh, not cry.

Even if you cry, don't let your bastard see.
