The devil is coming

Chapter 735 The beasts in the palace
In the thick smoke, a pair of red lights appeared above the black alchemy furnace, with agility and consciousness, as if they were looking at everything around them.
Xue San silently took a few steps back. He felt that he was already inconspicuous, and now it was best to be even more inconspicuous.
The little eunuch in red robe walked to the front of the alchemy furnace.
He waved his arm, and in an instant, the wind suddenly blew in the palace. After the thick smoke dissipated, what was revealed was the phantom of a Pixiu.
This Pixiu is completely black, as if a ball of ink and wash self-portrait has come to life, but the power on its body cannot be faked at all. The only thing that is different from black is its bright red eyes, which carry supreme majesty. .
"It's the spirit of Pi Xiu that has left the body." The little eunuch in red robe said to himself.
"Roar!"
immediately,
Pixiu let out a roar, and the alchemy furnace began to tremble violently.
"He wants to completely break away from the shackles of the alchemy furnace!"
The little eunuch in red robe immediately stepped forward, made seals with his hands, and gathered together from his side.
"town!"
then,
A talisman appeared from above the Pixiu Spirit.
Pixiu raised his head and looked at the talisman above.
After the little eunuch in red robe formed the seal, he pressed down his hands violently.
The talisman fell suddenly!
Pixiu's body was forcibly supported, and even when the talisman touched it, it still stood firm.
It can be seen that it seems to want to come out.
in fact,
The little eunuch in red robe was not talking to himself before. The purpose of what he said was very simple, that is, to get the two men of Marquis Pingxi to help.
Just as A Ming saw that the little eunuch in red robe was unusual at first sight, in fact, when the little eunuch in red robe looked at A Ming, he felt that the energy and blood in this man was very strange.
Qi practitioners are actually more sensitive to this aspect.
And the dwarf actually opened the alchemy furnace mechanism lightly, which is enough to prove that these two people are capable.
but,
The issue is,
Whether it's A Ming or Xue San, if you want them to do something, that's no problem. For things like putting out fires, unless the Lord himself speaks, they really don't have that kind of subjective initiative.
At the moment, they are looking at the excitement without taking it too seriously, with a look of concern and nervousness on their faces. In their hearts, they actually wish that the spirit of Pixiu could come out and wander around so that they can watch the excitement. .
A Ming also asked:
"Why can't this Pixiu come out?"
In everyone's established thinking, the Pixiu on his master's head is very well-behaved and docile, and the other three Pixiu are also diligent mounts.
Zike shouted directly:
"You have been suppressed for one or two hundred years, don't you feel resentful in your heart?"
This explanation makes perfect sense.
Even a loyal and obedient Pixiu must have had his temper distorted after being imprisoned here for so many years. What's more, this person was suppressed because of his cruel temper and disobedience to discipline.
"Roar!"
On top of the alchemy furnace, Pixiu roared again, and the talisman immediately shattered.
Then,
Between the alchemy furnace and Pixiu's body, it seemed as if something had finally been torn apart.
Do not,
To be precise,
There was a claw that suddenly poked out from under the alchemy furnace.
Only one-fifth of that claw still had some skin and flesh, and most of the area was already white bones, exuding an ancient aura.
Xue San felt that it was a pity that Liang Cheng was not here. The zombie definitely liked this tone.
Zike's arrangement was interrupted by the appearance of the claw. The second talisman failed to take shape in time, causing the shadow of Pixiu on the alchemy furnace to completely break away from its restraints and fly down.
The nail of Zike's left index finger pierced the palm of his right hand. While blood flowed out, he drew a charm in front of him.
"Seal, suppress, ban!"
"Buzz!"
however,
The shadow of Pixiu, which was separated from the alchemy furnace, showed an incredible strength, and in an instant, it was divided into three.
Zike's banning technique has taken shape, but he cannot really implement it and fight it out.
The opportunity was fleeting, and three phantoms of Pixiu penetrated the palace gate, fell on the field outside, and immediately condensed.
"Woooooo..."
Like the cry of the undead, endless cries were vaguely heard all around.
The spirit of Pixiu raised its front hooves,
Stomping the ground hard,
It seemed like he was venting some unknown emotions.
However, it did not cause any flying sand and rocks, and the blue bricks in the square were not damaged at all. However, the terror of this aura can indeed be clearly felt.
.........
"Escort! Escort!"
Rows of soldiers rushed to the entrance of Yangxin Hall and formed a formation.
There is a shield in front, a crossbow in the back, and on both wings there are guards holding swords.
Simultaneously,
Wei Zhonghe, who was originally waiting in the Yangxin Hall, came forward in person, and behind him, eight red-robed eunuchs appeared.
Thanks to the existence of the Grand Master in the palace, the eunuchs in the Yan Kingdom's palace have basically practiced the art of qi refining. There are different levels and talents, but it is undeniable that the higher the level of the qi refining master, the more likely the eunuch will be. The location is higher.
Ji Chengjue also walked to the door of Yangxin Hall, and beside him stood Pingxi Hou Zheng Fan.
All the important ministers also came out to watch.
at this time,
Dark clouds were already billowing above the palace, and many people recognized it. This scene was quite similar to the time when Master Qian Guozang entered Yanjing to slay the dragon vein.
At that time, the phantom of the Pixiu had already appeared outside the Yangxin Hall.
The little eunuch in red robe followed closely, trying to stop him.
farther,
A Ming and Xue San slowly started to put melon seeds in their pockets, but when they saw their master standing over there, they immediately realized that the situation seemed a bit complicated.
And then,
Eunuch Wei jumped up and
Between the two sleeves, cyan hair spurted out, like two leather whips, whipping directly at the phantom of Pixiu.
As a Qi Refiner, dealing with these spiritual bodies is actually the real skill that specializes in.
however,
This time, Pixiu still chose to dodge. Its figure was moving rapidly, not an exaggerated roll, but a mirror-image movement.
The construction of the palace pays attention to the feng shui pattern of the formation. The alchemy furnace is the eye of the formation. Pixiu has been trapped in it for hundreds of years, and it has already formed some echoes with the atmosphere of the palace.
This is actually its home ground.
Eunuch Wei's several attempts did not achieve any results. He was frightened, but he did not dare to move too far forward, for fear that the Pixiu would suddenly advance forward and endanger His Majesty.
At this time,
Li Liangshen appeared with a big sword. He is now responsible for the defense of the capital, and the most important defense of the capital lies in the palace.
The previous bolt from the blue was enough for a strong man of his level to quickly capture and sense it, so it was natural for him to appear now.
However, just as Li Liangshen was about to take action, he was stopped by Wei Zhonghe:
"Go and escort him!"
Li Liangshen was a little puzzled. Although he was not a Qi practitioner, once his strength reached a certain level, his sword Qi was enough to smash some spiritual bodies into pieces.
"This is no ordinary Pixiu spirit, it carries the incense of the great Yan national destiny!"
This Pixiu has suppressed the alchemy furnace for hundreds of years, and that alchemy furnace was once borrowed by the palace prince for sacrifice. After the hidden master cut off the dragon vein, the prince collected the Taoist luck on Tianhu Mountain to replenish the national destiny. In fact, this is how he used it The alchemy furnace is essentially based on the Pixiu under the alchemy furnace as the medium.
Qigong practitioners like to pay attention to this.
Li Liangshen actually doesn't believe this, but his current status is very embarrassing. A man who has been convicted of a crime has been reused by the new emperor, and he has been promised that he will be sent to the front line to lead troops when necessary in the future;
At this time, no matter how much he didn't believe it, he could never show it out.
He is not Zheng Fan,
Zheng Fan dared to touch Xinjun's back scales back and forth, and Xinjun seemed to be used to it.
But if others dare to do this, haha, do you really think that the emperor of the Ji family is a good-tempered master?
Therefore,
Li Liangshen retreated directly in front of the Yangxin Hall military formation, pierced the blue bricks with a big sword, and stood still.
"Block it with the Za family and force it back!"
Eunuch Wei ordered, and a group of red-robed eunuchs behind him took action together, with Eunuch Wei as the core, forcibly casting spells in an attempt to block the space for the phantom of the Pixiu to move.
The safest way is to push it back, push it back to the palace, and push it back to the alchemy furnace.
The scene suddenly fell into a stalemate.
The emperor stood there and looked at it for a long time, feeling a little bored in his heart.
can only say,
He is worthy of being the emperor who is most devoted to his father.
He inherited the distrust and rejection of these Qi alchemists' magic from when Emperor Yan was still alive.
Back then, Master Zang tried to threaten the Great Yan Dragon Veins by killing him. At that time, Emperor Yan laughed and urged him to take action quickly. Then, he ordered the Yan army to go south to attack Qian!
And Ji Chengjue has lost his mother since he was a child. Under the pressure of his father, he has tasted the warmth and coldness of the world. It is really difficult for such people to put any hope in the ethereal place, because they often understand a truth. What is in front of you, no, what is in your hands, is what you really own.
On the other side of the Wei Zhong River, Wei Zhonghe did not dare to make a heavy move, and the way he rubbed it back and forth made the emperor feel extremely disgusted.
He had just been discussing state affairs with important ministers, especially when Youpushe said that Marquis Pingxi should be the prime minister. Although the emperor would not allow it, he really thought this proposal was very interesting.
In the future, maybe it will be possible.
The person named Zheng is the prime minister, Prime Minister Zheng, haha.
Can be biased,
Because of this inexplicable thing, I have been delayed here for so long.
If it just suddenly snowed, it would be nothing if everyone came out with warm drinks, talked about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and enjoyed the snow. But at this time, we could only stand and watch;
In the eyes of the emperor,
It’s no different from a bunch of stupid men and women dancing around and watching.
Son of Heaven,
What I experienced was a sense of humiliation.
"Publish my decree and order Wei Zhonghe to kill these offending beasts!"
The Chu people regarded the spirit of the fire phoenix as a god.
The Yan people cultivated Pixiu into a mount.
There are some things in the bones that are really different.
No matter who you are, if you dare to make a mistake in front of me, you will have to bear the wrath of the emperor!
"Your Majesty, no."
"Your Majesty, think twice."
Around him, a group of ministers immediately began to admonish him.
They would rather believe it or not. In fact, they have all heard the rumor that there is a Pixiu in the palace. Now that they have actually seen it, they are naturally reluctant to let go of this auspiciousness.
It’s okay if you don’t worship, how can you destroy yourself?
"Ping Xihou."
"The minister is here."
"Deliver the message for me."
"Sir, obey the order."
Lord Zheng stepped forward, took the knife of a guard beside him, walked outside the military formation, and walked to Li Liangshen's side.
shouted:
"Your Majesty has a decree to order Wei Eunuch to kill this beast as quickly as possible without any delay!"
When Wei Zhonghe heard this, he hesitated for a moment, but finally did not dare to disobey the will and said:
"Change formation, strangle!"
The previous blockade turned into a strangulation.
however,
At this time of change,
The figures of Pixiu dispersed again, one turned into two, two turned into four, and four turned into eight. In an instant, countless Pixiu shadows appeared on the square in front of Yangxin Hall.
And in an instant, he roared and rushed towards the Yangxin Hall crazily.
Eunuch Wei and a group of red-robed eunuchs quickly stopped him. This time, they did not spare any effort. In an instant, most of the shadows were shattered.
Li Liangshen raised his sword horizontally in front of him,
The sword energy bursts out,
No fish that slipped through the net could get past him.
Lord Zheng also breathed a long sigh of relief silently, and the magic pill on his chest also became quiet.
however,
at this time,
An extremely strange scene appeared;
The phantom of Pixiu seemed to appear out of thin air. It passed through the interception of Eunuch Wei and others, bypassed Li Liangshen, and then jumped over the guard formation in front of Yangxin Hall.
direct,
Appeared in front of the emperor.
Some of the ministers around him were instinctively frightened and backed away, while others instinctively rushed towards the shadow of Pixiu to protect His Majesty.
And the emperor,
then maintain a standing posture,
Didn't move.
"Roar!"
Pixiu roared,
It made many nearby ministers feel dizzy and in great pain, as if there was a harsh sound in their ears.
Many of the surrounding guards were bracing themselves against the pain and preparing to escort them, including Li Liangshen, who had already flashed over.
however,
All those who had the ability to take action subconsciously stopped at this moment.
Because this phantom of Pixiu was very close to the emperor, and even the tip of its nose was close to the emperor's body.
Although this is just a shadow and cannot cause substantial damage, it can devour people's souls.
If this Pixiu is compared to an assassin, then at this moment, the assassin's knife is actually on the emperor's neck.
It's not that the little eunuchs in red, Wei Zhonghe and Li Liangshen, didn't do anything to protect it, it's simply because this is the palace, but it's also the home ground of Pixiu.
Wei Zhonghe entered the palace from the Wang Mansion, and this Pixiu had lived in the palace for who knows how many years.
Everyone dared not move.
The phantom of Pixiu seemed to be sniffing the emperor's scent carefully.
Its red eyes showed thoughts and doubts from time to time.
But the emperor, from beginning to end, stood there without retreating or fearing.
Ji Laoliu could joke with Zheng Fan without any airs, but in front of his ministers and these guards, he was the emperor.
He must maintain the appearance of an emperor.
you,
Much like him,
but,
You are not him.
Pixiu's figure began to fade.
then,
dissipate,
In an instant,
Appeared again hundreds of feet away.
No one cared about it at this time, but swarmed to completely protect the emperor.
The emperor himself was not nervous, but the eunuchs around him were really nervous.
At this time,
someone exclaimed,
"It went to Fenling Hall!"
Back then, when Ji Laoliu's imperial grandfather was in power, he advocated alchemy, opened palaces in the palace, and built Buddhist and Taoist temples.
After the late emperor ascended the throne, he punished those alchemists, and the remaining Taoist temples and Buddhist temples were rested and renovated to serve as offices for various ministries and yamen, improving the official salary.
The Fenling Hall has also been preserved. At first, the emperor's grandfather's spirit rested there, and now, the late emperor's coffin also rests there.
The ancestral system of Dayan is that the new king ascends the throne first and then conducts the country's funeral. During the funeral, the prime minister was assassinated by "barbarians", and the new king issued an edict to go to war against the barbarians.
Once the war started, the national mourning continued to be postponed.
Now that the war has just concluded, it stands to reason that we should choose a day so that the coffin of Emperor Daxing can enter the imperial mausoleum.
But now, it's not too late, so the coffin is still parked in the Worship Hall.
That's exactly where the phantom of Pixiu went.
The emperor pushed aside the guards around him,
Road:
"Don't let that beast disturb the late emperor's rest."
……
Zheng Fan once visited the Imperial Palace of the State of Qian. The official family lived in a greenhouse in the winter, but they only wore a robe and walked bare-chested. The ancestors of the Fan family also had a greenhouse, which was like spring all year round.
In the same way, different patterns and designs can provide warmth, and naturally they can also provide cooling.
In Fengling Hall, it was already colder than outside, and at the same time, it was also blessed by ice.
In addition, the coffin of Emperor Daxing was accompanied by cold jade, so the body would not rot.
The entrance to Fenling Hall,
There are many guards, called spiritual guards.
They saw the phantom of Pixiu appearing and immediately stepped forward to stop him.
But at the next moment, Pixiu's shadow disappeared again.
immediately,
The phantom of Pixiu appeared in Fenling Hall, and in front of him was the coffin of Emperor Daxing.
found it,
original,
you are here.
For nearly 200 years, it slept under the palace.
It has witnessed many emperors, who were called long live in this palace;
But only,
Only this one can echo it.
you,
I,
They are all trapped in this palace, suffering endless pain;
you,
You can feel my presence, you can see me, you can respond to me.
you,
Life is very hard,
I,
Same thing.
once,
It once said to the emperor, the only emperor it has admired and respected in the past 200 years,
Stretch out your hand,
I,
It can extend your life.
The regent of Chu State actually used this method, so he was confident that he could live a long time, and he could put away the broken bottles and jars and start over.
But Emperor Yan chose to leave the palace and go to the back garden.
Every day, he takes pills that will bring him great pain, squeezing his own potential in order to survive for a few more days, waiting for the two princes to enter the capital.
He was taking the elixir, but he was disdainful of the real gods in the elixir furnace.
the last time,
Not long ago,
Emperor Yan returned to the palace.
Pixiu called him again,
I,
It can give you a longer life, you need it, you desire it, you hate it, you hate yourself, it never stops!
For hundreds of years,
I have looked coldly on the lives and deaths of many generations of emperors,
This is my first time,
genuinely,
Look directly at an emperor.
You are worthy of my presence!
……
And then,
In the imperial study room,
Emperor Yan took a nap.
Eunuch Wei was by his side, waiting carefully.
Emperor Yan was in his sleep,
Suddenly uttered three words:
Eunuch Wei was so frightened that his liver trembled.
those three words,
Yes:
"Bastard, get out!"
