Qingguan Nightmare Shadow

Chapter 78

Dong Di only felt his body sink.

In retrospect, he was glad that he didn't embellish Xu Zhen's words in front of the emperor, but just objectively relayed his "function" with that broken mirror.Later, the emperor asked Su Tong to lead the army with a mirror, which cost money, manpower and material resources, but what was waiting was the general of the Beijing army saying, "Your Majesty, we have been deceived."

During the time when Xu Zhen's body was hung on the north gate of the palace for public display, Dong Di was trembling and suffered for many days, but finally the emperor did not issue a decree to blame him.

It took Dong Di two or three years to really get rid of his doubts. Now when Sheng Jia mentioned the name "Xu Zhen", his sense of precarious fear returned.Even a good chair couldn't frame him, and he couldn't stop sliding down while holding on to the chair.Mr. Nie, the vice-department of the Rongwei Mansion next to him, gave him a hand. He rubbed upwards, and was about to say "thank you", but both the gloomy atmosphere and Mr. Nie's gloomy expression made him shut up.

A few days ago, Lord Nie took his daughter to attend Yuchiling's wedding banquet and sat at the same table with Su Tong; Lord Nie thought that his daughter's calm personality was more suitable for Su Tong than the other two girls.But now the emperor confides his heart through the mouth of King Hua, he not only wants to stop his previous thoughts, but also has to find a way to make the adults of the three prefectures completely forget his plan to recruit Su Tong as his son-in-law.

As long as people and things involving Su Tong are involved, Jiahui's current products will have a depressing taste.

Before Sheng Jia said who that person was, Jiahui wanted to agree to her.However, in his memory, the memory represented by Xu Zhen is really not good; since he ascended the throne, nothing else has made him feel more defeated than that memory.Except for the barbarian invasion, although the rebellion sent by Xie Mingzong has nothing to do with Xu Zhen and Su Tong, its time is parallel to that memory after all.

In short, Zhao Qibin was very upset at this time.

Jiahui: "You mean Xu Zhen?"

I don't know how long it took before the emperor leisurely spit out a question.

In the air, although the silence was broken, the dignifiedness remained undiminished.Sheng Jia hesitated for a while, but still answered the emperor's question that this is not a problem: "Yes...Xu Zhen, the one from Yunjue Academy in Shuzhou..." She thought for a long time, but she couldn't sum up Xu Zhen's previous experience in Yunjue Academy. What do you do, so I had to say: "The scholar from the Yunjue Academy in Shuzhou in the past."

After a long time, Jiahui said: "This person is despicable, he is just a villain, you say you are disturbed by him, in my opinion, he is just scheming to make it easy for you to control, so he threatens you and wants you to vindicate him in front of me. "

"Your Majesty!" Realizing that he was yelling in a hurry, Sheng Jia paused, took a breath, and said, "Your Majesty, he has gathered many desperate ghosts from the Underworld, and if His Majesty exorcises Xu Zhen alone, his accomplices will not let it go. "

Jiahui: "..."

"Your Majesty, my servants are usually in charge of the inner court, and never make trouble in the past. Please consider that my servants have been admonishing Mr. Yuchi to be a loyal minister for many years, but now they only wish for peace. Your Majesty should take pity on your servants and don't make trouble in the mansion. Practice the law." Sheng Jia completely suppressed her crying, and her tone became much firmer, which also shook many adults from the three houses who thought this matter was absurd and unspeakable.

Jiahui glanced at Nie Cang, who nodded slightly.

"I promise you." Jiahui said with a sigh, "What does that guy want me to do?"

On the side, the scholars of the civil and military department frowned, and Jiang Yan said bluntly: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible! 'Don't make an example', how can it make sense among the brats?!" Jiahui raised his hand to stop Jiang Yan, and said to him again. Sheng Jia said: "Where is he, I can always meet him?"

Sheng Jia: "He..."

Before she could finish speaking, the blue fireworks in the night sky turned into colors; at the same time, Sheng Jia looked at Xu Zhen from the high platform, only to see that Xu Zhen was not where he was.A gust of wind blew across the high platform, and the air-conditioning invaded instantly, Jiahui's eyebrows moved slightly, but everyone had no time to react, and Nie Qiu had already blocked Jiahui.

As Yunli expected, Jiahui didn't sincerely agree to vindicate Xu Zhen, and Xu Zhen didn't believe Jiahui would make the promise so easily.

Jiahui guessed that Xu Zhen was there and just wanted to draw him out.Xu Zhen catered to his wishes and came uninvited. It seemed that he had expected the emperor's thoughts.Jiahui and Xu Zhen figured out each other's hearts, so that now there is a deadlock of "you and I have confessed our thoughts, but neither can threaten the other".

The moment before, Xu Zhen stepped in front of Jiahui and grabbed Jiahui's neckline with an outstretched hand, but his whole body was blocked by the black light barrier that Nie Cang waved.The black light is reflected on the ghost, slowly dissolving its skin, and revealing the ghost's true form to everyone.

When the incident happened suddenly, Sheng Jia was stunned for a while, and when her eyes were finally not blank, she couldn't kneel anymore and leaned over, but fortunately Yu Chi Ling helped her up.Yu Chiling helped his mother to sit in his seat, and he helped Nie Cang, and bound Xu Zhen's body with a black light rope.

There is a barrier in front and a bondage in the back. After witnessing the hideous ghost, everyone expected that Ding Nie Cang and Yuchiling would be better. Xu Zhen couldn't move, so he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

However, Yun Li saw that dozens of tear-picking girls slowly crawled out of the earth pits where the fireworks were buried, and then surrounded them towards the high platform.The reason why the tear-picking girls worked for Xu Zhen was because they were coerced by him. When Xu Zhen was "captured", they didn't intend to run away. It was not because the iron hook was hidden by Xu Zhen, but, Xu Zhen was not as passive as he seemed at all, he was simply using himself to delay time.

Except for people like Yuchi Mingshuang who are born with yin and yang eyes, ordinary people would not be able to see things in the underworld unless they were selected as targets.The people on the high platform could only see the Chongzhou peasants who left the field suddenly lying on the ground, wriggling in pain.According to Meng Po's orders, Cai Lei Nv would not hurt anyone, but now large and small scarlet wounds began to appear on the person who was entangled by Lei Lei Nv.

Jiahui's face was so cold that it could frost.

His trip to Chongzhou has completely changed.

Even his tour in the five states of the Xia Kingdom turned sour.

Jiahui, Nie Cang, Yuchiling and Xu Zhen were in a stalemate, Jiahui raised his chin to Yuchiling, Yuchiling felt something was wrong but didn't dare to hesitate, so he put away the light rope, went down to the high platform, and called out A few Beijing soldiers went to check on the situation of that group of people in Chongzhou.The Beijing soldiers all reported that it was bewitched, but since they could all see it, how could Yuchi Ling not see it, but the Cailei girl was in the dark, and Yuchi Ling was helpless for the time being.

There are few people in Chongzhou, but there are many ghosts. At this moment, the remaining few tear-picking girls rushed towards Jiahui.

Compared to Xu Zhen, it's not Jiahui who deserves to be damned.

Yun Li couldn't do it himself, so he quickly wiped Jiang Yan's eyes to awaken his new vision.Jiang Yan's reaction was really fast, he immediately drew out his sword and hit one of the ghosts.The tear-picking girls realized that they had been exposed, so they turned back immediately and stopped wading through the chaotic waters on the high platform.

While Nie Cang's attention was attracted by Jiang Yan's action, Xu Zhen's empty sleeve on the right moved, and densely packed iron hooks came out one after another, forming a chain and stabbing Jiahui directly.Jiang Yan held the sword to block the iron hook in time, but the long sword couldn't withstand the strong impact and broke immediately.Instead, Jiang Yan resisted with his bare hands, grabbed the last iron hook, and pulled it vigorously, the barbed "chain" reversed direction, and wrapped around his arm like a giant snake.

Before exhausting his strength, the chain formed by the iron hook continued to climb along his arm. In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yan's body was covered with blood holes of various sizes, deep and shallow.

People from the Civil and Military Division rushed to help, but the iron hook of Cai Lei Nu was like a living bird of prey, not only ruthless, but also very sharp.While dodging, Iron Hook looked for an opportunity to strike, and soon turned everyone's swords into pieces of iron.

The high platform was a little messy, Jiang Yan raised his voice, "Masters, go below!"

From the very beginning, the lords of the three houses and the lords knew very well that those strange things were aimed at the emperor, but to show their loyalty, no one dared to leave.Jiang Yan's words were like a reassuring mantra to liberate people; upon hearing this, the lords and lords were more flexible than iron hooks, and immediately took refuge under the high platform.

Sheng Jia was extremely pale and weak, and was dragged down by Yu Chiyong and Mr. Nie, the vice-department of the Rongwei Mansion.

Immediately, Yuchi Mingshuang greeted him and took Sheng Jia over from Yuchiyong, seeing that his father-in-law seemed to be vomiting blood.Yu Chiyong told the people around him that he was fine, and leaned softly to one side.

Soon, all the iron hooks were scattered, and some escaped the blockade line of Jiang Yan and others, and went towards Jiahui again aiming at the opportunity.

Seeing that the iron hook was about to succeed, a green light suddenly descended, turning the arrogant iron hook into powder.

In the confusion, Luo Rong subconsciously blurted out: "Young Master Yun?" The few people who were close to him heard his words, but they all didn't understand.Yun Li flashed behind Luo Rong, and covered his mouth with his palm; Luo Rong understood, ignored Jiang Yan's questioning gaze, grabbed an iron hook casually, and diverted everyone's attention elsewhere.

On the side, Xu Zhen let go of his hands, and knelt down with his skirt lifted.He showed weakness on his face, but said in his mouth: "Your Majesty, even if you don't think about yourself, you should also think about Chongzhou Baixin, right?" pierced the heart.

But Xu is really a ghost, his spine has been hanged by a pole in front of him, and it is no problem to suffer a painless sword after death.Xu Zhen remained motionless, and continued, "Your Majesty, I drew runes on the bodies of those little ghosts. If I die, the little ghosts will not survive. If you don't let me go, the people of Chongzhou will suffer... ..." The voice behind was stuck in his throat, because the lightsaber stuck in his heart had changed again; due to the infusion of Nie Qiu's mana, the lightsaber became a magic weapon to subdue ghosts.

"Your Majesty, you are really a...good emperor..."

Xu Zhen held on to the point of the sword that was protruding from his chest, and pushed back. At the cost of breaking another arm, he forced the wizard's magic weapon out of his body.

Nie Cang kicked Xu Zhen instead, stomping his head on the ground.

With the current angle of tilting his head, Xu Zhen can just look at Sheng Jia under the high stage.Sheng Jia trembled at first, wanting to bless Jiahui and speak for Xu Zhen; however, looking at the current situation, it was obvious that Xu Zhen's life was in danger, Sheng Jia's lips slowly returned to color, and he almost raised a smug smile.

But so.

The ghost that entangled her was nothing more than that.

But Xu Zhen was smiling, and the canine teeth were clearly exposed, which was dazzling.Sheng Jia suddenly had the feeling that this ghost was about to perish together with her, and it was the ghost's "same perdition", which was far more terrifying than the human's "successful perdition".Sheng Jia took a breath, and subconsciously said: "Your Majesty..." Hearing his wife's voice, Yu Chiyong gave Sheng Jia a sideways glance in horror, took out the prestige of the patriarch that had been accumulated for many years, and suppressed what Sheng Jia wanted to say.

However, Xu Zhen's eyes seemed to be much more terrifying than those of a Patriarch, a husband, and a prefect of Chongzhou.

Sheng Jia: "Your Majesty!"

Jiahui sat silently, next to his ears were the sounds of Xu Zhen's head cracking and the iron hooks clanging against each other.Xu Zhen's head was half sunken, and it was true: "Mrs. Yuchi, have you forgotten what you did?" Sheng Jia staggered, but as Xu Zhen's head became more and more shriveled, She straightened her waist and returned to her usual "Mrs. Yuchi" appearance.

Xu Zhen: "Mrs. Yuchi, I told you a long time ago, if things don't work out, you won't have a good life in the future."

Nie Cang put in more effort, but Xu Zhen's head was supported by a cloud of turbid air, making his mouth not stop: "Ma'am, not only you, but also Mr. Ling, Mrs. Yuchi, and even the whole of Yuchi's mansion. , will not feel good."

……

When the tear-picking girl's iron hook was almost broken, Yun Li stopped, walked up to Xu Zhen, and leaned over to look at his face.This is a ghost face without any hope; people tend to do extreme things when there is no hope, and when there is no hope, ghosts will not do things that look better than people.

Looking at Yunli, what Xu Zhen showed was compassion.

Both Yunli's eyes and heart were stabbed, Xu Zhen smiled at Sheng Jia when he lost his mind, "Madam Yuchi, look at what is buried under your feet, what is it?"

Everyone on the high platform froze for a moment.

As if her body was out of control, Sheng Jia followed Xu Zhen's words, squatted down and started digging.Now she is a little confused, she can't tell whether she should be proud of Xu Zhen being subdued, or frightened by other reasons.

Pushing aside a layer of soil, there are fireworks that have not been ignited.

Pull another layer...

Sheng Jia seemed to want to scream, but it might be because she was extremely frightened, or it might be because of the emperor's attention, she couldn't make a sound, she only opened her mouth, then backed away repeatedly with her mouth covered.Then she realized that she was doing nothing, and then she realized that this person in the pit would not have any influence on her, Yuchiyong, or Yuchiling now.

After the subconscious fear of the dead body subsided, Sheng Jia no longer felt dizzy, lifted her skirt and slowly stepped forward, returned to the position she had retreated just now, and stood still.

The viewing mirror buzzed, but it didn't seem like a normal induction, but it seemed to be completely broken.

The movement of the bronze mirror is sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and the intensity changes randomly.

Xu is an illusion, Chongzhou Baixin, Cailei Nu, Jingbing, civil and military scholars... Zhao Qibin, Nie Cang, Xu Zhen, Yuchi Ling, Sheng Jia, Yuchi Mingshuang... On and off the high stage, everyone is ghostly The movements stopped, and all eyes focused on the pit in front of Sheng Jia.Gradually, Yunli felt that his heart was in sync with the viewing mirror, and he walked up to Sheng Jia with a blank mind, completely unconscious, and did not notice the green flames rising from his body, and all the spells were burning flames Turned to ashes.

It was clear that no one was blocking the way, but Yun Li raised his hand and waved Sheng Jia, Yu Chiyong and Yuchi Mingshuang back a few steps, before squatting down as if no one else was there.

First it was Xu Zhen, and now it was Yun Li who had attracted the thunder a few days ago.

The flies that Jiahui eats today are enough for the combined weight of the flies in the past few decades.

Yun Li held the earth expressionlessly, and the green flame took over the remaining fireworks, illuminating the sky brightly.The air at this moment is like a piece of paper, the smooth and even paper shrunk around Yunli as the center, and the people on the side couldn't breathe.Despite the pain of suffocation, the people of Chongzhou who were entangled by the tear-picking girl stopped struggling; because the little ghosts couldn't bear the overwhelming green light, they took refuge underground one after another.

Xu Zhen finally began to tremble slightly.

Slowly, the people in the soil appeared.

Yun Li remained motionless.

Jiang Yan and Luo Rong rushed to the bottom of the high platform and carried the man out, shocked and furious.The person in their arms was a jade stone that had lost its luster. The jade stone was covered with dirt, and Jiang Yan couldn't clean it after taking pictures for a long time.

Yun Li is not polite to anyone now, and immediately snatched Su Tong into his arms, the scorching green flame made Jiang Yan and Luo Rong dare not approach; a circle of open space immediately formed around.However, even if the temperature of the green light is astonishingly high, it cannot restore the body temperature of the person in front of him.

Xu Zhen on the high platform let out a laugh: "Mr. Yunli, I said, before I borrowed, what Mr. Su looked like before I borrowed it, I promise that when you see him, he will still be the same..." Xu Zhen closed his eyes Whispered: Yunli cut off half of his face with green light.

Yun Li had no expression on his face, he just gently placed the viewing mirror on Su Tong's chest.Su Tong's body was cooler than the bronze mirror, but the bronze mirror didn't even have chaotic fluctuations, like a ball of cold stagnant water.

Xu Zhen was crippled, but still said: "Mr. Yunli, I helped you find Mr. Su in the capital, and brought him to Chongzhou. Why didn't you thank me and treat me like this instead?"

Putting away the bronze mirror, Yun Li put Su Tong's arm on his shoulder, stood up, and took a look at Sheng Jia.Then his gaze pierced Sheng Jia, and fell on Yuchi Ling who was in the distance.Jiang Yan and Luo Rong followed his line of sight and were shocked to connect certain people together.

Jiang Yan: "Madam Yuchi?"

Sheng Jia: "..."

Jiahui didn't seem to have Su Tong in his eyes, he suddenly said coldly to Xu Zhen: "Your body has been divided up by the falcons long ago, and the law of heaven will not allow you to be rehabilitated." As soon as he finished speaking, what happened to Xu Zhen's body The feet shriveled into a thin sheet, and suddenly, a trace of gray-black gas escaped from the body.

The emperor's reaction stabbed Jiang Yan hard in the heart.Facing the high platform, he knelt down to the seated person, remained silent for a while, and then said neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty...you know about Mr. Su?"
