Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 789 The Wedding Scene

"Lily, let me ask you again, are you serious?"

Long paused, and emphasized: "You have to figure it out, entering the temple is no small matter, and the danger involved cannot be explained clearly in a few words. I am afraid that even if I do my best, I may not be able to protect you well. Uh, you Sure……"

"I'm sure!"

Lily interrupted Long's words directly, and said seriously.

"It's not just my brother who is in danger, but also Xiaoyu, Wu and the sisters of the fox clan... all of us are in danger, if we don't save them, maybe they will never come back It's..."

Lily lowered her eyes, trying to hide the sadness in her eyes.

In fact, she insisted on entering the temple for another reason.

If this is indeed her last time, she hopes to see her brother again before the end of her life.

After coming to the outside world, she met many people, and everyone treated her very well, but no matter how many people gathered around her, in her heart, Kong Zhe was always the most special one, the only one she could be without Lily felt that if she was by his side, it would not seem so scary even to face death.

"That's it..."

Long nodded, frowning and began to think.

He could see that Lily seemed to be hiding something, but it was hard to explain something like a dream, and he probably wouldn't be able to explain why even if he asked her.

Living in Jincheng for a period of time, Long knew very well how much his Highness valued Lily. This time His Highness asked Lily to follow him into the city, which also implied that he wanted him to protect Lily, so if possible, Long naturally didn't want to. Let Lily enter the temple to take risks.

It's just that he can't ignore Lily's words, especially after he discovered that the ferryman is the void walker just now, it seems that it is a certainty that the palace master will reach the realm of an epic hero.

Long gradually felt that even the shrewd Xiaoyu probably underestimated the strength of the Hall Master. If she alone was able to deal with the Hall Master, even if she could win, it would inevitably result in a loss for both sides.

"Okay, in that case, Lily, let's go to the temple now..."

After thinking about it for a while, Long sighed, and finally made this decision.

He can't let things continue according to the original plan, he must enter the temple.

At the same time, he couldn't rest assured that Lily was left alone in the city, so he could only take her with him.

……

The series of events that happened yesterday was very sudden. The sudden appearance of the invaders created a lot of noise in the city that never sleeps. However, as the temple began to operate, all kinds of messy remarks were quickly suppressed.

The temple then issued an announcement saying that all the intruders had been killed.The city that never sleeps quickly regained its previous peace, and the damage caused by yesterday's fighting incident and the earthquake in the evening, with the cooperation of many capable people, it only took one night to restore it to its original state.

After yesterday's rain, the next day ushered in a sunny day, the wind was sunny and the sky was clear.

For all the residents of the city that never sleeps, today is a special day: the only son of the temple master will tie the knot with a witch from the fox clan today.

This is a major event involving the marriage of the two forces, and this event has been approved by both the temple and the Fox God Palace. It is said that Lord Fox God will also attend in person today.

And the temple directly announced a one-month tax exemption for all animal traders in the city.

Regarding the decision of the witch to marry a foreign race, although the people of Loki complained, they did not dare to make more judgments.After all, this is the decision made by Lord Fox God himself. For thousands of years, they have been used to obeying the instructions of Fox God. For their own consideration, they only need to obey.

What's more, the benefits given after the temple are real for the merchants in the city. One month's tax exemption may not sound like much, but don't forget that reselling goods in the human world is a profitable business, and one month's tax exemption is enough Let many people earn a lot of money.

The streets of the city that never sleeps are crowded with people at this moment, and everyone's face is filled with novelty and joy.

Along the main road in the city, a straight road has been paved with a red carpet, and the bride and groom will walk hand in hand later.

The crowds on both sides of the road were already overcrowded, but they were all controlled behind the isolation zone and were only allowed to watch the excitement on both sides.Of course, on such an important occasion, no one would dare to make trouble.

The noise in the city lasted for two or three hours until exactly three o'clock in the afternoon, when suddenly there was a burst of shouting at the end of the main road.

The bride has appeared!

Wearing a phoenix crown on her head, a Xiapei on her body, a light veil on her face, and a bright red maiden robe, the decoration on her body is even more gorgeous.

This is Loki's most formal maiden costume. At the same time, because of the veil on the face, outsiders cannot see the bride's appearance. This is also one of the traditions of the fox clan. Before the groom lifts the veil, the bride's makeup cannot be seen by outsiders. go.

On the other side of the street, the groom in a neat suit also appeared on the other side at the same time.

"Xiao Lei..."

Kong Zhe stared at the girl directly opposite, and couldn't help but squeeze the palm of his hand.

Even if he looked at it from a distance at this moment, he could feel the slightly trembling body of the person opposite him.

It's no wonder, I pretended to be someone else and returned to the temple yesterday, but I still couldn't find a chance to get close to her, so Xiaolei didn't know that she was here yet, and probably thought that the person standing opposite was a complete stranger, so it's no wonder She will be afraid.

The deacon next to him handed Kong Zhe a bouquet of flowers in due course.Kong Zhe took it, straightened his suit, and walked towards the opposite side.

The girl seemed to sense someone approaching, and subconsciously wanted to back away, but Kong Zhe suddenly took two quick steps and grabbed her wrist.

The girl froze for a moment, and then her trembling increased a lot.

Kong Zhe frowned slightly.This was not because of Xiaolei's fear, but because when he grabbed her wrist just now, his fingertips felt cold.

Even without looking at Kong Zhe, it was clear that it was a dagger.

He could feel that if he hadn't shot quickly, Xiaolei might have drawn out the dagger and stabbed at him.

At this moment, there are countless pairs of eyes projecting on the two of them, and there are many killers sent by the temple to monitor them.

Just now when Kong Zhe suddenly made the abnormal move of grabbing his wrist, he immediately felt several eyes cast on him.

With Rumang on his back, Kong Zhe didn't dare to make any unnecessary moves.

From the tiny wrist grasped in his hand, bursts of resistance came continuously.Kong Zhe didn't let go, no matter how scared Xiaolei was at the moment, he had to force her to finish the play.

Kong Zhe flicked his fingers lightly, stuffed the dagger that was about to fall back into her sleeve, then took her hand and led her forward.

Maybe it was because she realized that her small movements had been exposed, but the other party did not expose her, but concealed it for her. Xiaolei's struggle was a little smaller, but her body was still very stiff, like a wooden man, completely being led by Kong Zhe walk.

The surrounding pedestrians continued to hear warm cheers and applause, and the whole street was filled with festive atmosphere.However, for the two parties involved, they couldn't feel any festive feeling at all.

Kong Zhe is also helpless, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at him at this moment, he can't convey any information to Xiaolei, let alone magic power, sound transmission and star power, even if he makes small movements with his fingers, he will be discovered immediately.

Looking at Xiaolei's appearance of staying away from him as much as possible even though she was being led, it is estimated that as soon as she lets go, she will turn around and run away immediately.

Alas, I can only wrong you first, Xiaolei...

Kong Zhe sighed in his heart, the only thing he could do was to hold her hand even tighter, hoping that the warmth of his palm could relieve some of his tension, or, hope that there was a little possibility that she would recognize him...

Of course, the reality is far from as beautiful as imagined, until the two of them finished walking the red carpet, Xiaolei still looked trembling.Kong Zhe simply gave up.

Amid the cheers of passers-by, the two stepped onto a floating stone platform together.

This is a stone platform made by Laputa in the sky.After stepping on it, the stone platform will automatically take them to the sky city at the top.That's where the actual wedding takes place.

……

Among the crowd in the street below, there are two thin figures hidden.

Both of their heads were wrapped in black cloths, completely covering their heads.This kind of dress is similar to many animal figures, and it is not very eye-catching in the crowd.

"Ah, it's my brother!"

At a certain moment, one of the figures suddenly pointed at the two figures flying into the air and let out a soft cry.

"Oh?"

The gaze of another figure immediately cast its gaze on the person it was pointing at.

"Indeed... I feel like His Highness..."

These two people were Long and Lily who had just left the Fox Clan Inn.

Naturally, they were not interested in this so-called wedding. The reason why they came here was to find an opportunity to sneak into the temple.

Today the temple just held such a grand wedding, and all the manpower was transferred outside. I thought the internal defense should be very weak.

However, the dragon wandered around for a long time, but still couldn't find any breakthrough.

His eyesight is far from that of ordinary people, and he can immediately distinguish those temple personnel hidden in the crowd with a glance.Although these patrolling personnel were scattered in position, they cooperated with each other to perfectly cover the entire temple without revealing any dead spots.

In this case, if you want to go in, you may have to get rid of one or two.

Long was hesitating about this matter, but what he didn't expect was that he hadn't found a way to get in, but he found His Highness's trace first.
