Chapter 865

Seeing that more than ten sharp knives were about to be added to her body, the Buddha mother took a leap, jumped three feet, and landed firmly on the other pole!

Jin Yiwei hurriedly surrounded another Aozhu, raised his knife and climbed up, shouting viciously, "Witch, where are you going to escape this time?"

The Buddha mother bowed her head and smiled contemptuously, as if she was looking at an ant, and then walked away with small steps...

Seeing the fluttering robes of the Buddha Mother and flying in the air, Jin Yiwei was all stunned.When there was a clang, someone couldn't hold the Xiuchun knife in his hand...

"As soon as the Holy Mother comes and the demon king is destroyed, once the demon king is destroyed, Sheng Shiju will be born!"

In the night sky, the ear-filling magic sound rang out for the last time. Before the words fell, the Aoshan Lantern was turned into a ball of powder in the earth-shattering explosion.

Jin Yiwei, who had just jumped around Aoshan, was also swept upside down by the huge shock wave.Wang Xian's chest seemed to have been hit by a hammer, and he lost consciousness when his eyes went dark...

.

Inside the palace gate, the fire in the three main halls was burning more and more intensely. The palace people did not know how many people were burned to death, but they still rushed towards the fire like moths.

All the princes and ministers have already rushed to the square in front of Fengtian Hall. Although it is impossible for these nobles to fight the fire, and it is not their turn to direct the fire, they must be here, showing that after the fire in the three halls, the courtiers should The pain was so painful that many people cried and cried, "Don't pull me! Let's fight the fire!"

However, the movements of the feet were not at all urgent, for fear that the people around him were slow to move, what if one could not hold back and rushed to the scene of the fire?To enter or not to enter?It's all a big problem...

When the ministers performed to their heart's content, Zhu Di did not appear on the scene of the fire. The emperor of Ming Dynasty was still on the tower of Chengtianmen, still maintaining his original posture.There is no need to go inside the Fengtian Gate, or even look in the direction of the Three Great Halls, because the entire night sky is turned red by the sea of ​​flames...

Zhu Zhanji stood next to Zhu Di, his face was full of worry, he didn't need to show anything to the minister, he just needed to let the grandpa know his filial piety...

Zhu Zhanji waited for half an hour, seeing that Zhu Di was still motionless, he yelled a few times, but there was still no movement. Then he realized that something was wrong, and hurried forward, stretched out his hand and gently tugged Zhu Di... Then, like The emperor sitting there like a statue turned into a puddle of mud...

Fortunately, Zhu Zhanji had quick eyes and quick hands, hugged the unconscious emperor, and screamed:
"Come quickly, Imperial Physician, quickly send the Imperial Physician!"

After speaking, his voice suddenly became quieter, and he slowly stretched out his hand to probe Zhu Di's nose. After waiting for a while, he felt a very faint breath.His Royal Highness, who has been applying for weirdness, sighed lightly, and I don't know if he is relieved or slightly disappointed...

The imperial physicians arrived very quickly. The emperor fainted once in the last lunar month, and they were the ones who rescued him. This time, they were very familiar with the rescue.And this time the emperor didn't need to move the place, because the fire spread in the palace, the Chengtian Gate became the safest place...

.

Zhu Di seemed to have had a long, long nightmare. In the dream, he fell into a boundless abyss, countless tentacles bound him tightly, and mountain walls in all directions squeezed towards him.The devils above his head were circling around with a sly smile, and he wanted to yell at them loudly, telling them that he was the Son of Heaven, with God's protection, gods and ghosts are not allowed to come near!However, no matter how he opened his mouth, he couldn't make any sound!I only heard those devils mocking wildly: "You have been abandoned by the heavens! Abandoned! Abandoned!"

"No!" After all, Zhu Di was an unyielding old soldier. He tried his best to sit up suddenly, wowed, and finally spit out a mouthful of blood.

"The emperor is awake!" "The emperor is awake!" "Your Majesty is awake!" The grandson, eunuch, and imperial doctor cheered at the same time, and the grandson hurried forward, wiped the corners of the emperor's mouth, and poured water to rinse his mouth .Zhu Di didn't pay any attention to it, and still shouted angrily with blood-red eyes: "I am ordered by the heavens! The destiny belongs to me!"

"Grandpa Emperor..." Zhu Zhanji was very worried seeing the emperor's babbling, fearing that his grandfather would go crazy if he couldn't stand the stimulation, so he called out softly. "Grandfather..."

It took a while for Zhu Di's eyes to focus, and he drank two sips of water to moisten his throat. The emperor rolled his eyes, and seeing that he was still on the tower of Chengtianmen, he couldn't help closing his eyes in disappointment.How he wished that everything that happened last night could disappear without a trace after waking up, just like what he saw in his nightmare!

After closing his eyes for a long while, Zhu Di slowly opened them. He always had to face things when they happened. He said to himself: "I have experienced all kinds of storms, so it's just a few houses, just burn them down and rebuild them!" ’ After comforting himself, the emperor’s extremely depressed mood seemed to calm down a little.Looking at the sky outside, he seemed to have just entered the night, and asked hissingly, "What time is it?"

"It's noon..." Zhu Zhanji replied softly.

"How could it be so dark that day?" Zhu Di was stunned for a moment.

"This..." Zhu Zhanji hesitated, and whispered: "It's smoke, covering the sky..."

"..." Zhu Di kept subconsciously not looking north, because he didn't want to see the raging fire that was still burning.But the thick smoke has already enveloped the sky above the city of Beijing, black smoke covering the sun, like a solar eclipse...

"What kind of incense is this?" Zhu Di asked again. It was a strong aroma, not sandalwood for daily use, nor precious ambergris.

"Grandfather, there is no incense..." Zhu Zhanji sighed secretly, and carefully replied: "It's the nanmu pillars of the three halls, the smell of being burned..."

"Pfft..." Zhu Di's complexion changed, and he spat out another mouthful of blood.Although he has a big family and a big business, and he has always been extravagant, but when he heard that those nanmu pillars were burned, his heart still hurts like a knife.The thick wooden beams in the three main halls of the Hall of Supreme Harmony are huge and extremely expensive nanmu.These nanmu are collected from deep mountains and old forests in Sichuan, Guang, Yun, Guizhou and other places.It is very difficult to obtain this kind of wood. Officials and people have to venture into many mountains to obtain materials, and then work hard to transport them out of the mountains hundreds of thousands of miles away. The folks have a saying that "1000 people enter the mountains and 500 people leave the mountains", and then travel thousands of miles. It was transported to the capital and became the beams on the three halls, each of which was worth several 10 taels of silver!
But only in Fengtian Temple, a total of 72 such nanmu beams and columns were used!
Since even the beams were burned, all the treasures, curiosities and priceless treasures in the hall must have been burned too... Thinking of this, Zhu Di pressed his chest tightly, his old face was pale and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Grandfather, don't be too sad," Zhu Zhanji comforted Zhu Xi softly when he saw this, "Fortunately, Cheng Guogong and Zhao Gonggong were well prepared, and the fire did not spread. The fire was only within the scope of the three main halls and did not reach the harem. It didn't even reach the Qianqing Palace."

Zhu Dixin said, is this called luck?If even the harem burns down, I'll find a rope and strangle myself to death.I don’t know how much firewood and rice are expensive if I’m not in charge of the family. How much money did I spend building this palace?These three halls alone have consumed the court's fiscal and tax revenue for three years!

Because the three halls have been repaired twice, the cost is particularly huge...

"When will the fire be extinguished?" Zhu Di asked slowly, having almost come out of the pain of cutting flesh.

"Should..." Zhu Zhanji said in his heart, the fire is still going out, and it's almost the same when the fire burns out by itself.He saw that those guys did everything they could to put out the fire.But they are all Liangshan's military advisers—useless!
They even asked monks and Taoists to enter the palace to pray for rain, begging God to help, and the rain would extinguish the fire.

Not to mention, Taoist priests really have some magical powers, and the Dafa of calling wind and rain is at least half effective!A drop of rain didn't come down, but it brought in the northwest wind!
This is a good guy, that's called a fire that takes advantage of the wind to make it more prosperous!The fire in the three main halls is even hotter!

In a fit of anger, Cheng Guogong sent all these monks and Taoists to the depths of the fire to put out the fire. If there is no diamond that is indestructible, and the cultivation cannot be invulnerable to water and fire, it is estimated that few of these eminent monks and Taoists will survive.

.

"What's going on?" Seeing that Zhu Zhanji was at a loss for words, Zhu Di knew it must be the worst.Enduring the chest pain, he let out a mouthful of foul air and said, "Tell me, I can bear no matter how bad the result is."

"Yes." Only then did Zhu Zhanji come back to his senses, and said softly, "Grandpa Emperor, it's not that bad. The fire will be extinguished when it's almost dark."

"Is it burnt?" The emperor snorted coldly with a dark face. Once Zhu Di regained his sanity, no small thoughts could be hidden from him.

"Yes..." Zhu Zhanji lowered his head and hurriedly said: "This fire is so evil, it rises suddenly, and the eyes are opened all at once! The fire is burning hot and fast, and it is useless to pour water on it ..." His voice became weaker and weaker, "People say that they have never seen such a wicked fire..."

"Sky fire?" Zhu Di's face became even uglier. He suddenly remembered what the demon girl said, "Heavenly fire descends and burns the devil's palace".

The imperial doctor hurriedly stroked the emperor's chest and back, and pressed the acupuncture points again, and then he calmed Zhu Di's churning blood.Zhu Di panted heavily, stared at Taisun and asked, "Is it?"

"Yes..." Zhu Zhanji responded in a low voice, and immediately stated his position firmly: "But my grandson firmly believes that it is a lie to deceive the public! I have already ordered people to arrest those who talk nonsense!"

"What's the use of arresting people? Can it stop the people talking?" Zhu Di smiled at himself, looked at Zhu Zhanji and said, "Your father must have felt relieved, right?"

"This, how could it be?" Zhu Zhanji hurriedly shook his head and said, "Grandfather, my father is still directing the firefighting?"

"I think it's because of my excitement..." After Zhu Di finished speaking, without waiting for Zhu Zhanji's answer, he suddenly frowned and said, "It seems that my excitement is not over yet, and there is still a good show to come!"
