Chapter 23 Festival

Inside the niche.

The eyes of the head suddenly opened.

The quiet water bottom suddenly boiled, and there seemed to be ground fire boiling at the bottom of the lake, and blisters rose silently from the closed sarcophagus and floated in the water. In each blisters, there is a pale face, but those faces that have been so pale without seeing the sun for a long time are ecstatic. Looking at the head and severed limbs in the golden plate on the altar, their lips are closed:

"Welcome your Royal Highness the prince back to the city!"

With some emotion, the head smiled, and then the severed hand on the gold plate on the other side waved to greet all the subjects.

"God Bless Kongsang, the time to see the sun again is not far away!" The cheers of ecstasy were blown by the wind.

"Everyone, continue to rest," the chief commander ordered, and his always haggard face also beamed with joy, "continue to contribute all your spiritual power and provide strength for the Underworld Warriors! God bless, Yunhuang has always been Kongsang people. The world!"

"God bless Kongsang, Guozuo is long!" One hundred thousand Kongsang people’s blessings trembled in the water, and then those bubbles gradually disappeared—tens of thousands of pearls hung on the bottom of the lake where the sky could not be illuminated, softly Light overflows. At the bottom of the lake after the bubbles disappeared, only the white stone coffins that could not be seen were paved neatly."Teacher, long time no see." After all the people retreated, the hand suddenly got up and clung to the shoulders of Da Si Ming. Among the people in Kongsang who disappeared in an instant, the only one who could "communicate with the world" "The old man does not need to sleep in the sarcophagus, but can act as usual under the water as a physical entity. The chief officials of the Kongsang people in all dynasties were also crown princes and masters.

"His Royal Highness," Seeing that Zhen Lan's behavior still fails to conform to the royal demeanor after so many years of training, Dai Si Ming couldn't help but laughed bitterly in admitting his failure.

However, looking at that hand, Da Si Ming's expression suddenly stunned, and he asked: "Why isn't'Emperor Heaven' in his hand?!"

"I gave it away." He replied nonchalantly, "I was sent to Tianque with so much effort. I am a prince at any rate, so I must have some excuses?"

"What?! His Royal Highness actually gave away the emperor?" Da Si Ming was shocked, looking at Zhen Lan's head, his eyes almost staring out, "This, this is the treasure of Kongsang in the past! Concubine, this pair of rings not only communicate with the empress, but also echo each other-how can your Royal Highness give away such an important thing easily?"

"Can't you let me go back again?" The head made a helpless expression. However, seeing Da Si Ming’s wise and steady face flushed, and the jade slip in his hand was about to hit him on the head, Zhen Lan quickly broke it down: “Ah, you old man, don’t be angry, don’t be angry! You first listen to me— I gave that girl the ring to let her continue to help us!"

"Continue?" The trembling gray eyebrows of Dasiming finally settled, and then they wrinkled together: "That's right-since she can wear the emperor, it proves that she can also break the other four seals for us! Find this It's not easy to be alone."

"Yes! It's not easy, how can I let her go like this?" Suspended his hand again and climbed on the shoulders of Dasiming, and patted in approval, "Teacher, you also know that the vitality between the ring and my body Is it connected? That girl wearing the "Emperor Heaven" will subconsciously feel the call of the "I" in the other four seals, and she will go and break it for us!"

"I said..." The chief groaned, and looked at the head on the gold plate-a hundred years have passed, and this face still keeps the appearance when the disaster came, but the straightforward tone remained, and the crown prince His Royal Highness has obviously grown up in the suffering and war that lasted for a hundred years.

Seizing away the severed hand that was crawling on his shoulders, Da Shiming smiled bitterly: "But is that person strong enough? It's all luck to unlock the Eastern seal—the other four seals, but all of them must have the equivalent of Six Kings. Only the power of the world can be opened.""She is very weak, and she has no strength at all." The severed hand made a helpless gesture, and the head on the gold plate cooperated with her mouth. "So, we have to help her level the road."

"..." Da Si Ming groaned, turning his head to look at the six kings who were on standby under Dan Ma, "this matter, wait for the old man and the king of six parts to discuss carefully-the crown prince's body has just recovered a little, let's take a good rest."

――――――――――

"Hi... it hurts me to death."

After everything went into nothingness, only one and a half people remained on the altar. The white-clothed woman gently untied the rope tied around her right wrist, but the leather rope that tore her body was deeply entangled into the wrist bone, causing pain in her heart with a slight movement. On the other side of the gold plate, Zhenlan complained constantly in pain.

"Hey", with a soft sound, after cleaning up the blood and minced meat near the wound, Bai Ying cut the rope cleanly, and the blood-stained leather rope snapped to the ground. She took a handkerchief and applied it to the wound—a century-old scar, I'm afraid it will leave marks after it healed.

Seeing the face in the golden plate next to her, she suddenly felt a bitter sorrow.

"Huh? Cried?" In the empty water city, there should have been no tears to see, but Zhen Lan found out for some reason, "Don't think you can't see it, your mind made the water feel warm-just now What is in my hands?"

The head in the gold plate next to him was talking, the dismembered arm on the other side moved in response, patted his wife's face, and smiled: "It's really hard for you."-However, his hand crossed her body. , Passing through without obstruction.

He actually forgot that she was already a ghost and had no entity.Zhen Lan was stunned, looking at the condensed illusion in the emptiness, suddenly couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Bai Ying frowned, looking at it, "It's so serious...He doesn't look like a prince at all."

"You didn't just see me like this, Aiqing." Prince Zhenlan laughed, but there was an inexplicable emotion in his eyes. He looked at his wife who has been married to this day, "Suddenly I think it's ridiculous— There are such a couple in the world...it's a monster."

Seeing the strange appearance of the opponent's head and head separated, and looking down at the void form of her own condensed mind, Bai Ying couldn't help but smile-but her smile was sad at the end. Zhen Lan held her hand and gently let the illusory figure keep its shape in his palm. Bai Ying turned her wrist silently, holding Zhen Lan's hand, the ‘Hou Tu’ on the **** was shining brightly.

It turned out to be like this...A hundred years ago, she jumped from the white pagoda to the ground, never thought that her destiny would turn into this strange situation. Although Lovebird caught her, she thought, the real Baiying had already died in that instant.

She felt that she was dead. So he curled up silently in a damp and dark corner of Garan City just like he had died for ten years. In the past ten years, the fighting and howling of the army outside, the panic and despair of the people, did not affect her at all.

The prince and concubine have gone immortal—the Kongsang people are so legendary, because it is obvious to all to see the wedding dress falling from the top of the white pagoda that reached the sky, but her body was not found on the ground. And that day, the people also saw the three fairies of Yunhuang appearing together in the clouds on the lovebirds.

So I don’t know where there are rumors, saying: The crown prince was originally a mysterious girl in the nine heavens. Flew back to heaven in the wind.

Such legends were accepted by the entire Kongsang Kingdom, who believed in divine power, and believed in them. When the sun sets, many citizens walked to the street to pray to the white pagoda in the clouds, hoping that the immortal princess would bless Kongsang, and called the white pagoda the "Tower of Fallen Heaven"-however, no one knew The author of the rumor was actually Crown Prince Maarashi.

The lies that deceive the people of the world are to protect the dignity of the Kongsang royal family and the reputation of the Bai clan.However, even if the truth of the incident is concealed, it is strictly forbidden to spread. However, in the private rumors of the people of Kongsang Kingdom, it is said that the Crown Prince Princess Baiying was seduced by the slaves of the same race, and there is no face. Yes, he committed suicide—the news spread as quickly as a quiet wind. For thousands of years, everyone in the Shark clan who had been slaves was gloating. He felt that the Shark named Sumo slapped the Kongsang hard and raised his eyebrows for all Sharks.

Soon, there were rumors that the shark man named Sumo was the descendant of the sea emperor who was swept into Kongsang by the emperor Xingzun. His blood is noble, so his appearance is unparalleled in the world—this news is even more unfounded. It was close to the association, but the servants of the shark were very happy to believe that it was true. The Sea King awakens, and the dragon vacates the abyss of Cangwu—and the young man named "Su Mo" is the hero of the sharks, and he will surely lead all the enslaved sharks to freedom, return to the blue sea, and rebuild the sea.

When the rumors were flying in the sky, the offensive of the Ice Race outside the city became more and more fierce. However, the two parties in the rumors didn’t know all this anymore-Somo was released, left Yunhuang and wandered into the distance; while the legendary woman was lying in a dark and damp cellar, using a sword. The word "Mie" passed to her by the Holy Spirit fell asleep.

She imagined herself as a corpse lying quietly decomposed in a place no one knew, covered with fungus and moss, night birds sang, and vines crawled over. Ignorance. Thousands of years later, when the city is in ruins and Jinghu Lake is turned into Sangtian, perhaps someone will find her body in this abandoned cellar.
