The dark wind was still raging outside the building, howling again and again, but it could not dissipate the gradually rising fog that enveloped the sky. The coldness between heaven and earth was getting heavier, and the air was filled with biting ice.
The maids and palace servants waiting outside the building gathered around the burning stoves on both sides of the road in front of the building, warming themselves by the flames in the furnace. Only Xiao Fuling's white lion was lying in the wind in front of the door of the building, motionless.
The building was filled with warmth, and even the exotic flowers and rare birds did not shiver. Instead, they were full of energy and full of energy. The rare birds emitted one after another sweet cries that echoed among the exotic flowers and rare birds.
There are several underworld old plum trees entwined with Qiu branches. The flowers are in full bloom among the branches and leaves, and the petals as black as ink slowly stretch in the warm current.
The ghost mother secretly counted the days while continuing to write the troop deployment order.
She had to let Xiao Fuling arrive at Shuoyue Island when Xiao Shizhu had already come out of the underworld. So she suddenly asked Xiao Fuling to take the shrine to Muxi City first. In this way, she had to escort the heavy shrine.
, Xiao Fuling wanted to use the flying thunder car to move forward rapidly, but she couldn't do it.
"Now that the war on Shuoyue Island is over, it's still safe there. Go pick up your father and the queen, and let him take the mikoshi back to the capital." The ghost mother took the written silk order, read it carefully, and checked it.
After checking for typos, he leisurely rolled up the silk book, tied it up with silk thread, and put it in a prepared delicate wooden box: "Give this to Chun Yun, and he will mobilize your troops."
After a pause, the ghost mother handed the covered wooden box to her daughter Xiao Fuling, and said: "Xiao Fuling, Lord of the Jade Palace, lead your army north to protect your father."
"No." Xiao Fuling took the wooden box with both hands, looked at the wooden box in her hands, and asked with a smile: "Can I bring Senior Sister Susu with me?".
"This is not possible. There are some matters in the court that need her to deal with." The ghost mother refused Xiao Fuling's request without even thinking about it, and said: "But your two masters, the national master Yingying and Nu Ba are both here.
Shuoyue Island, please bring them back too."
"No wonder I haven't seen two masters for more than half a year to guide me in my homework." Xiao Fuling muttered, and eagerly put the wooden box into her sleeves and put it away: "I will go to Aunt Chunyun and ask her
Send me troops."
"Take Fan Jinhong and your guards with you. Be careful on the road and don't be careless." The ghost mother shouted as she looked at Xiao Fuling, who was already running towards the door of the building.
"Got it." Xiao Fuling responded, and like a gust of wind, she rushed out of the main building gate and disappeared from the sight of the ghost mother.
In the cold wind outside the building, there was a loud roar of a lion that shook the earth, like muffled thunder on a clear day, the sound shook for miles, and the roar revealed waves of majesty. Even most of the rare birds in the building shivered with fear, but only
The pair of phoenixes were not frightened and continued to comb their beautiful feathers as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Fuling, who had mounted the white lion, turned around with the roar of the lion, and galloped away from the palace gate...
Windy sand, dark windy sand roaring and rolling in the south of Huangquan.
There was only a haze and darkness between the sky and the earth, as well as the sound of roaring wind and the rustling sound of sand rubbing against each other.
In the gray darkness that stretches between heaven and earth, nothing can be seen clearly, and no one knows what dangers and murderous intentions are hidden.
The Queen of the Underworld's technique was not successful at all, and the climate-changing mudra and hand techniques she used were nothing more than a set of fictitious mudra and hand techniques that Lin Wan and the others had concocted.
This kind of technique to change the world environment created by the ancient gods does not exist, but it must be done by the ancient gods who created the underworld. The use of Xiao Shizhu's ghost life is a big lie.
With the help of Wu Tou and Ke Yun, Xiao Shizhu finally broke out of the Holy Land and ran into the wind and sand. Key Yun and Wu Tou, the underworld ghosts, sided with Xiao Shizhu and beat up the Queen of Underworld and the others.
The followers under his command were caught off guard.
When hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers surrounded Xiao Shizhu and his group of ghosts and rushed out of the valley like a surging wave, the ghost soldiers of Huangquan Holy Land guarding the entrance of the valley were rushed by Wu Tou and Ke Yun before they could react.
Everything is scattered.
By the time the defenders in the valley and at the mouth of the valley had reacted, Ke Yun and Wu Tou had already led the ghost soldiers to escort Xiao Shizhu and the others into the sand and disappeared in the storm.
When escaping, Xiao Shizhu didn't forget to ask the female demon to attract heavenly fire, which fell at the mouth of the valley to form walls of fire, blocking the defenders in the valley.
The defenders in the valley could only look at the raging storm and flying sand through the wall of fire and heat waves, sighing in disappointment.
The ghost soldiers who fought all the way, led by Ke Yun, braved the wind in the roaring sandstorm. Xiao Shizhu let the ghosts with the Wind-fixing Pearl intersperse among the troops to protect other ghosts around them, making
Although they moved slowly in the wind and sand, they were not injured.
After following Keyun for two or three hours, they came to an abrupt, towering, steep, and majestic mountain in the sea of sand. Amid the wind and sand, it was vaguely visible that there was no vegetation in the mountain, and only exposed rocks were left immersed in the sandstorm.
, let the wind and sand beat desperately.
There are city walls, heavy gates, crypts and stone chambers among the rocks on the hillside, looming in the wind and sand. There are many overlapping stone hills between the city walls and partition walls, and there are also piles of rocks, forming a unique stone city scenery.
This is a shelter from wind and sand.
Places like this are dotted all over the southern part of Huangquan, but this mountain city-like refuge is the largest refuge Xiao Shizhu and the others have ever seen.
The army followed Ke Yun and poured into it, entering caves and stone chambers to avoid the wind and sand. Fortunately, there were no troops stationed here for the time being, and there were no fierce battles. The ghost soldiers successfully entered it.
Xiao Shizhu, who was already dying, worsened after a long journey. As soon as he entered the stone room in the city, his whole body became limp and he fell to the ground and fainted.
Before she could take a breath, Imperial Master Yingying immediately became busy again.
Xiao Shizhu, who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, was as breathless as a gossamer, and his cheeks, forehead, and ears were all red and hot. His appearance was no different from having a fever.
When Imperial Master Yingying touched his forehead, she suddenly felt that it was hot. She quickly took out the towel from her luggage, went to the well in the house to fetch water, soaked the towel, twisted it dry, folded it and put it on Xiao Shizhu's forehead.
Imperial Master Yingying then took out a small bottle from her arms, shook out all the pills in the bottle, poured them into the palm of her hand, and delivered them one by one to Xiao Shizhu's chapped lips and slightly open mouth.
.
This is Su Tianju's secret medicine that can eliminate epidemics and plagues. It melts in the mouth and works very quickly. However, Xiao Shizhu's face and condition did not change after a while.
Imperial Master Yingying put down the long staff in her hand, sat cross-legged on the ground next to him, kneaded the magic formula with her hands, and pinched a sword finger with her right hand. The tips of her index and middle fingers suddenly glowed with golden light, and green runes appeared in the golden light.
Flying around her index and middle fingers.
The tips of her index finger and middle finger first lightly touched Xiao Shizhu's eyebrows, paused for a moment, then slowly moved downwards, touching Xiao Shizhu's skin across the bridge of his nose and across his lips,
Then came the Adam's apple.
The runes flying around his fingertips were spinning faster and faster.
When Imperial Master Yingying's index finger and middle finger continued downward, and finally landed on the Tanzhong point on Xiao Shizhu's chest, Imperial Master Yingying suddenly frowned, her face turned earth-colored, and she said in surprise: "It's not good, the life in the master's body is
There is not much strength left.”.
"What does this mean?" Shi Jueming, who was scratching his head, asked blankly. So far, he still doesn't know what the old woman, Queen of the Underworld, took away from his adoptive father?
"His Yuan Qi and Ghost Life have both been lost. If this continues, the Lord will die soon." After thinking about it, National Master Yingying decided to tell this cruel reality.
Moreover, most of the people in the house were ghosts like them from the underworld, Xiao Shizhu's personal entourage, and black monkeys scratching their heads and scratching their heads between looking for incense and anxious. Imperial Master Yingying didn't pay much attention either.
"Yes, that's right, I saw the soul-eating curse on all four iron pestles." When everyone was shocked and surprised, Xunxiang had already taken out a small piece of broken metal from his sleeve, only as thick as a thumb, and handed it to
Imperial Master Yingying: "This was broken by Mr. Shi Jueming."
The core of the iron pestle, the netherworld red gold forged from the souls burned by the hell fire under Luofeng Mountain, can be burned for thousands of years to forge a small piece. But it has the effect of absorbing souls, and it actually appears in the core of the pestle. It seems that this
It’s the Fengdu Old Ghost Plan.”
"When did you get it?" Yingying, the master of the piece of metal, gently stroked the piece of red Netherworld red gold in her hand and felt that there was not much life force and Yuan Qi left in the metal.
"Before we left, when the Lord roared with thunder, I picked it up in the chaos." Xunxiang and Imperial Master Yingying sat on the ground across from Xiao Shizhu: "Based on this fragment, I guess that the old ghost from Fengdu sent someone to bewitch him.
The Queen of the Underworld asked him to attack the Son of God, and the magic weapon must be made of Netherworld red gold.
In conjunction with the soul-breaking technique, this magical technique was used by ancient gods to execute traitors. It is said that the life span of demon gods is as long as that of ancient gods. Therefore, many demon gods were directly executed with this technique after the war between gods and demons. It can
The ghost's life can be sucked away instantly from any soul, and the symptoms after being attacked are also consistent with the master's current situation."
The wind and sand outside the house with closed doors and windows became more violent, and the rustling sound became louder and louder. Xunxiang turned his head and stared at Xiao Shizhu's red and hot cheeks, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
"But this kind of netherworld red gold is useless after it was used once. Therefore, after the war between gods and demons, this kind of red gold has been out of stock, and such metal has never appeared in the underworld. What the queen of the underworld got is probably
It was brought by ghosts." He said,
Xunxiang frowned: "Fortunately, we broke the Iron Pestle Formation in time, and the Lord's lifespan was not completely sucked away. So after he rested for a period of time, he would be back to his original state; except for his boundless life ghost
I'm afraid I can't recover my life."
Imperial Master Yingying and Nv Ba both had their eyes turned red when they heard this. Shi Jueming quickly turned away, otherwise he would see the sad tears that were about to fall from the corners of his eyes.
"That's right, the vitality left in the Lord's body is only enough to last for forty or fifty years at most. After forty or fifty years, he will die." The dejected Imperial Master Yingying lowered her head, a few tears accompanied her.
With a click, it fell on the ground in front of her, next to Xiao Shizhu's hand.
The atmosphere in the room instantly became heavy.
"Didn't you say there was a way?" Qin Yuan flew in front of Xunxiang, hovered in front of him, and asked urgently: "If there is a way, solve it as soon as possible!".
Now in desperation, they remembered that Xunxiang had indeed said this when they were in the Holy Land. Except for the blind Imperial Master Yingying, who was still lowering her head and crying, the other ghosts all looked at Xunxiang.
Even the black monkey did the same and stopped scratching his ears and head.
"There is indeed a way to save our lord, which can restore his boundless life and vitality." Xunxiang nodded, his frown still not relaxing: "But there is no way in Huangquan.
The only way is to return to the underworld." (To be continued)
