Chapter 307: Dark Mist
Unparalleled city.
"Uncle Lu, are you going home?"
"Uncle Lu, take care of yourself."
"Uncle Lu, see you tomorrow."
……
The light of the morning sun spread across the sky and earth, announcing the end of the night and the beginning of the day. After a busy night, Mr. Lu dragged his tired body towards his residence. The morning sun inadvertently fell into Mr. Lu's eyes, making the bloodshot eyes particularly conspicuous.
In order to intimidate the Western Regions, Tian Xuan took away almost all of Wushuang City's main forces. Only 3,000 soldiers were left, and Cao Shen was the only general. Xiao He and Cao Shen were unable to handle the situation alone, so they had to bring in Old Man Lu to help them deal with the tedious affairs of all sizes in Wushuang City.
Although Mr. Lu was a close associate of Tianxuan, the lord of Wushuang City, he was not arrogant. The pedestrians he met along the way greeted him cordially. Some young and energetic young people, seeing that Mr. Lu was staggering, took the initiative to help him.
creak!
When the Golden Crow completely broke through the rolling mountains in the east, Mr. Lu finally returned home.
"Everyone, I'm home now, please go back!"
"Farewell."
"Uncle Lu, if there is anything, remember to call us."
……
The kind pedestrian who sent Mr. Lu back home saw that Mr. Lu had returned home safely, gave him a cup of tea, and then said goodbye so as not to disturb him to rest. After watching everyone leave, Mr. Lu, who was almost exhausted, stood up and closed the open door. In the eyes of others, he was definitely going to rest.
When the doors and windows were closed, Mr. Lu heaved a sigh of relief. His wrinkled face was filled with a hint of ecstasy. His skinny right hand reached into his arms carefully and took out a one-foot-long ball that shone with bronze color but had no trace of chiseling, like a natural work.
This ball was found by Mr. Lu, Xiao He, Cao Shen and others when they were counting taxes yesterday. A merchant who traveled between the Western Regions and the Central Plains was unable to pay taxes for the time being, so he determined that this ball was made of refined copper and used it to pay the tax. Xiao He and Cao Shen also thought it was a ball and wanted to melt it down and cast it into copper coins, but Mr. Lu took it away and said he wanted to play with it.
"Bronze ball?"
After making sure that there was no one else in the room, Mr. Lu focused his gaze on the ball, his cloudy old eyes filled with fiery excitement.
“If there is a second bronze ball like this in the world, I am willing to exchange my life for it!” Having said that, Mr. Lu stretched out his hands, carefully picked up the bronze ball, and placed it on the shrine in the room.
boom!
After placing the object that looked like a copper ball on the shrine, Mr. Lu bent his legs, knelt down beneath it, and kowtowed heavily.
"The ninth son of the dragon who has been sleeping for countless years - Pixiu! Soon, very soon I will be able to send you back to where you should be!"
At the end of his speech, when Mr. Lu raised his head, hot tears the size of soybeans seeped out of his eyes and rolled down his wrinkled old face to the ground.
Brush and pull!
Mr. Lu was delighted to have found the long-lost ninth son of the dragon: Pixiu, but he failed to notice a barely perceptible rainbow light passing through a corner of the room.
…………
Sizzle!
The campaign against Jingjue was a great victory.
The Ghost Cave tribe, known for its mysterious and strangeness, was almost slaughtered by Tianxuan. The leader of the Ghost Cave tribe, in the legend of the Western Regions, was the Queen of Jingjue, the mother of reincarnation from generation to generation. Not only did she reveal her real name, Wuchan Nagahai, which few people knew, to Tianxuan, she had to use her body and a shocking secret as a bargaining chip in exchange for the survival of the last few hundred tribesmen.
The sun is scorching, and its harsh rays fall on the desolate desert.
Dozens of mechanical sand boats, controlled by the Qin army, headed towards Gumo City. The specially made bottoms of the boats scratched through the yellow sand, leaving dozens of deep marks.
The Golden Crow was high in the sky, the war was over, and the Qin soldiers were bored. They could only do something else to divert their attention.
"Big, big!" "Little, little, little!"
"leopard!"
"Two barrels!"
"Thirty thousand!"
"Six!"
……
Inside the cabin, some people gathered in groups of three or five, gambling on dice and playing mahjong and having a lot of fun.
"Brothers, why doesn't your Majesty kill all these ghost cave people?"
"It can't be helped. It's because the Queen of Jingjue used her beauty trap on His Majesty!"
"Although His Majesty is lustful, he will not be seduced by women. I think that the secrets that the Queen of Jingjue tells you are more interesting to His Majesty than her body."
……
Some guys who were not interested in gambling, or who had lost the bet, walked on the deck and told some dirty jokes. Somehow, they ended up talking about Tianxuan. Some bolder guys cast envious eyes towards the flagship where Tianxuan was.
…………
flagship.
"You all stand down."
The army had already set out on the road back to Gumo City. Tianxuan came to the room where the Queen of Jingjue, Wuchan Nagahai, was imprisoned. In front of the door stood two women who were selected from the Ghost Cave Clan and had poisonous snakes wrapped around their bodies as decorations. Looking at the two women with a vigilant look on their faces, Tianxuan, who came with Yan Fei and Yue Shen, waved his hand and ordered them to retreat.
In the eyes of these two maids, Tianxuan, the peerless lord, came to them because he could no longer bear it and was planning to attack their own queen. The two girls who could barely understand Zhongyuan Yayin did not retreat as they were told. Instead, they showed a vigilant look and looked at Tianxuan as if they were looking at a hungry wolf.
"You guys should leave now!" At this time, the charming and beautiful voice of the Queen of Jingjue came from the room, saying Zhongyuan Yayin, "If Your Majesty really intends to do something to me, then I would love it!"
When the two maids saw that the queen had spoken, they had no choice but to bow their heads and retreat to a distance.
Bang!
After sending the servants away, Tianxuan pushed open the door and walked into the boudoir belonging to Wuchannagahai with his head held high, accompanied by Yanfei and Yueshen.
"I pay my respects to you, my Lord."
When Tianxuan stepped into the room, he was wearing a thin gauze dress, his eyes were bare, and he presented his delicate face full of exotic beauty to Wuchannagahai between heaven and earth. He was lying lazily on the couch, holding a book in his slender hands. Tianxuan glanced and saw that the book in Wuchannagahai's hand was actually a great book.
Wuchannagahai stood up leisurely, put Honghuang down, and bowed to Chongtianxuan.
Strictly speaking, Wuchannagahai was neither Tianxuan's woman nor his ally, let alone his subordinate. Therefore, Tianxuan was too lazy to be polite with her, and pulled over a master's chair and sat down, his sword eyes slightly raised, and his burning eyes fell on Wuchannagahai, who was covered with a veil.
Brush and pull!
At the same time, the Moon Goddess waved her hands, and a pure rainbow light bloomed from her palms, spreading in all directions like a rolling wave. In a moment, it turned into a pure barrier that sealed off the entire room. Unless one's cultivation was higher than that of the Moon Goddess, there was no way one could eavesdrop on anything without alerting her.
Yin and Yang magic, barrier!
