After rebirth, she was forced into marriage by the sickly prince

330 Chapter 330, draw the sword, test the marriage
Daqi's Divine Beast Forest is located in Wangpu Mountain, surrounded by haze in the west of the city.

There is a garrison army stationed outside the mountain, and no one is allowed to enter the mountain.

The soldiers here would throw some living things into the mountain stream every evening, and these were sacrifices.

In the middle of the night, they could hear the roar of dragons and tigers, which was very scary.

But it's strange to say that the beast never comes out of the mountain to hurt people.

In the mountain stream, the old trees support the sky, and the canopy blocks out the sun. The sun cannot shine directly down, and only mottled light and shadow fall on the mountain.

There is no road in the mountains, and when you look up, there are dense weeds, and you need to cut through thorns and thorns with a sword to move forward.

A guard took orders from the front, led them to the cave where the beast lived, and retreated.

Xiao Qiyu raised his eyes and saw that the entrance of the cave looked like the entrance of a temple in an ancient book. It was very tall and the pillars were too thick for two people to hug, but because it may be too old, it was severely eroded by wind and rain. , and grass is growing everywhere, so it looks very desolate.

There is also a pair of majestic giant stone beasts guarding the gate, and the beasts are covered with green moss.

Back then, such a sect must have been very impressive.

The five people looked around and walked in quietly, and found that the hall was very grand, and the windows were very spacious, but unfortunately they were all covered with wild vines.

Facing north and south is a stone chair carved with wolf-shaped armrests, and under the chair lies a golden beast shaped like a unicorn, its whole body gleaming with gold.

This beast was about the size of a full-grown tiger, and it was snoring soundly, and the sound of snoring echoed in the air.

And on the back of the chair stands a black lacquered sword. In such a dark space, the black of its body has merged with the black of the wall. a sword.

"Isn't the Queen Mother asking us to draw this broken sword?"

Kaqing asked curiously:

"It's so dark, what kind of sword is it?"

Wei Dongnan, who was the number one scholar in civil and military affairs of the dynasty, explained: "It is said that whoever can pull out the sword, the sword will shine brilliantly, and then the sword will return to its original appearance..."

Su Ha echoed: "That's right, I've heard that the reason why the Empress Dowager became the Empress Dowager is because she is not only the one chosen by Qingcheng Zhiyu, but also the one chosen by this sword. She pulled out this sword The sword, it is said that this sword can also break marriages."

King Lu was curious, and asked a question: "So, does the Empress Dowager hope that the sword will choose her son-in-law?"

"probably!"

Suha agreed.

King Lu frowned: "But this sword is hung on the habitat of the beast. If you want to draw the sword, you have to get close to the beast. Once the beast wakes up, will it eat us? I heard that Daqi's Divine beasts, when provoked, can also eat people. They once ate a prince who wanted to usurp the throne..."

Xiao Qiyu has indeed heard this kind of legend: "If we approach the past, we might wake up the beast. In this way, let's draw lots to determine who will be the first to go up and pull it out. Wake it up, if it's hungry, none of us can escape..."

His proposal was approved by everyone.

So they retreated to a relatively safe place to draw lots to determine the order of drawing their swords.

The first one is King Lu.

The second one is Wei Dongnan.

The third is Suha.

The fourth is Kaqing.

The fifth is Xiao Qiyu (Xiao Yu).

Five people stood guard at the door. According to the agreement, King Lu was the first to approach the beast quietly, and saw that its tail was very long, and a part of it was coiled on the chair.

Lu Wangyi leaned forward, stepped on the wolf chair, found a place far away from the tail, stood up, rolled up his sleeves, tried his best to pull out the sword.

In the end, it was useless, the sword remained motionless.

King Lu tried three times but failed. In the end, he could only retreat quietly in dejection, and whispered to them at the door: "It's not moving at all..."

Wei Dongnan was born as a champion of martial arts. He doesn't believe in evil. All swords in this world are forged. Since the sword and the scabbard are separate, as long as the strength is strong enough, it can be pulled out.

He went up and stood in the same position as King Lu—and when he pulled it out, reality slapped him in the face. The hilt of the sword could be pushed left and right, but it couldn't be pulled out.

After three times, he backed off with a dark face.

When he didn't want to come down, he almost woke up the beast, which made him break out in cold sweat.

The beast turned its head, but did not open its eyes, and continued to sleep in another position.

This posture was changed so badly that it put its big furry head on the wolf chair, and a chubby paw rested on the side of the head, just covering its eyes.

Seeing this, Su Ha was so angry that he almost jumped, for nothing else, the sleeping position of this beast is the most suitable place for them to draw their swords, now in order not to wake it up, he has to stay far away from the head of the beast, in this way, when using When you have strength, you definitely can't use your full strength.

Naturally, he could only end in failure.

The fourth one is Ka Qing, he is so courageous that he went to find a piece of dogtail grass to stimulate the nose of the divine beast.

The divine beast felt itchy, rubbed it with its big paws, and the whole body slid from the chair to the ground. He covered his face with his hands and continued to sleep.That appearance, cute and cute, doesn't feel lethal at all.

And he jumped onto the chair like this, trying to pull out the sword at the most suitable angle, but it was useless, no matter how much strength he exerted, it remained indifferent.

The worst thing was that when he jumped off the chair, he stepped on the long tail of the divine beast, which woke up the sleeping divine beast at once.

The divine beast that woke up turned its head, and instead of its adorable appearance just now, it showed a terrifying expression of baring its teeth, and roared at Ka Qing.

That roar was absolutely earth-shattering.

Even the mountain trembled three times.

Mu Yunjiang, who was far away from the mountain, heard the roar, his expression froze slightly, and he cried out in his heart: This is too bad.

Here, Su Ha was so frightened that he almost collapsed on the ground.

"Run."

Xiao Qiyu who was waiting at the door roared immediately.

Only then did Su Ha remember to run, the front foot left the ground, and the fat palm of the back foot came over and scratched Su Ha's clothes.

Su Ha desperately ran forward, and when he reached the door, he found that the robe on his body had been ripped off by the beast, and he shouted anxiously:

"Run, run, run..."

A group of people rushed in the direction they came and went in a panic, for fear that the divine beast would chase them out and shoot them to death one by one.

Its palm power is incomparably powerful. Just now, they saw with their own eyes that a big vase beside the wolf chair was turned into scum instantly by the big palm.

When they came to a safe place and looked back, Su Ha suddenly found that one of them was missing——Where is that masked Xiao Yuren?
