Chapter 261 Queen Shura
The moonlight shone quietly in the small courtyard, and the ground was covered with silver frost.
After the massage, Jiang Shouzhong did not go back to the room to rest, but accompanied Dugu Luoxue.
The two sat side by side, each other's shadows overlapping on the wall covered with silver moonlight, like ink painting, forming a quiet silhouette picture.
Jiang Shouzhong thought about the current situation in Qingzhou.
Although he has determined that a riot will break out in Qingzhou, he does not feel that he alone can prevent the riot from happening, especially now that he is a wanted criminal.
He has done everything he can as much as possible.
The letter to Lu Renjia was to be handed over to Yuan Anjiang.
And took the risk to come forward and give the internal guards early warning.
No matter whether Yuan Anjiang can stop it or not, whether these powerful insiders believe it or not, he has tried his best.
Jiang Shouzhong began to hesitate whether to let Jiang Yi take Xia He, Qiu Ye and the others to leave Qingzhou first.
Rebellion in a city is not a trivial matter. No matter how high the cultivation level of the four women in Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter is, they are just people in the world in front of the huge army and cannot make much waves.
Even super masters like Zhao Wuxiu and Yelu Shenye can only play a limited role on large-scale battlefields.
I remember Yan Changqing told him that no matter how powerful the monk is, when he is exhausted, there is no invincible existence in the world, and the ants will really overturn the elephant.
So Jiang Shouzhong had to consider leaving this place of right and wrong.
"Master, is there anyone in the world you care about?"
Jiang Shouzhong asked suddenly.
Dugu Luoxue lightly picked up the silver needle, lowered her head and concentrated on sewing the clothes. Every stitch and thread was meticulous. When she heard Jiang Shouzhong's question, she paused, thought about it seriously and said, "Master is here." It’s Master, now it’s you.”
Me?
Jiang Shouzhong looked strange.
These words sounded too ambiguous, and those who didn't know better thought it was an ambiguity between lovers.
However, Jiang Shouzhong remains skeptical.
Does the other person really care about him?
The two of them had not known each other for long, and the reason why the other party accepted him as his disciple was simply because his mood was damaged and he wanted to hone his Taoist heart, which had a strong purpose.
Perhaps guessing what Jiang Shou was thinking, Dugu Luoxue stroked her clothes and said calmly: "Since I have accepted you as my apprentice, I will definitely care about you."
As she spoke, a strand of hair fell naturally, inadvertently half-covering her face, adding a mysterious and untouchable charm to her already cold and beautiful face.
Jiang Shouzhong scratched his head in embarrassment, feeling ashamed of his villainous heart.
So the man said shamelessly: "Master, with you, can I walk sideways? I have a grudge against a powerful person, can you help me fight?"
Dugu Luoxue is wearing Line, calmly said: "If you die, I will avenge you."
Jiang Shouzhong was stunned and fell silent.
After a long time, Jiang Shouzhong sighed, rubbed his face vigorously and said, "I probably don't have anyone I care about. It's a pity. I'm too busy and now I've incurred a lot of love debts."
"You should be abstinent. "
Dugu Luoxue changed the subject and returned to the topic she was passionate about.
She turned her head and stared at the man's angular and handsome face, and said slowly:
"What you call love debt is just greed caused by lust. You are just greedy. Those beautiful things. When you no longer have any desire for them, all the so-called care and reluctance will disappear. ”
Jiang Shouzhong touched his chin and nodded slightly: "Master, you are right, I completely agree. In fact, I think that if you want to solve this problem, you should use transfer.
For example, Master, you come to seduce me , so that I am not interested in them. After all, with your charm, Master, it is difficult for me to control you. In this way, I will only have lust for you.
Then, you can use your abstinence. Tao preached to me. In the end, I succeeded in abstaining from sexual desire, and Master, you also succeeded in tempering the Taoist heart. Isn’t it beautiful?”
After listening to Jiang Shouzhong’s advice, Dugu Luoxue said calmly: “I will not tempt. People don’t use this method.”
“Oh, there’s no other way, then I can only fall.”
Jiang Shouzhong sighed.
“Pa!”
The man was slapped on the head.
Dugu Luoxue puffed out her pretty face slightly, and then she stretched her white wrist lightly, and lightly grasped Jiang Shouzhong's ear with her green fingers, and said coldly: "Go do your homework and recite the volume of "Abstinence from Desire" The second chapter. "
Jiang Shouzhong suddenly had a bitter look on his face: "Master, I just gave you a massage, you can't do it like this."
"Massage? When did it happen?"
Dugu Luoxue blinked her beautiful and clear eyes, and said with a blank expression, "I am old, I don't remember."
Jiang Shouzhong Wu Be true to your word.
At this moment, a sharp cold light suddenly appeared in the night, like a meteor piercing the silent sky, approaching directly.
Jiang Shouzhong reacted quickly. With a wave of his sleeve, the cold light was pulled by his energy and deviated from its original trajectory. Finally, with a "chun" sound, it was deeply embedded in the door.
It turned out to be an extremely sharp dart.
Jiang Shouzhong suddenly stood up, jumped towards the deep night, and stepped onto the roof.
I saw a dark figure cutting through the night, escaping quickly and silently. In just the blink of an eye, it melted into the vast night, leaving no trace behind.
Who?
Jiang Shouzhong frowned slightly, with doubts in his heart, and turned back to the small courtyard.
He pulled out the dart stuck in the door panel.
Dugu Luoxue was sewing clothes silently, with an indifferent expression, not caring about it.
The tail of the dart is tied with a slender paper roll.
Jiang Shouzhong unfolded it slowly, and when his eyes came into contact with the paper, he couldn't help but shrink slightly. I saw a crooked line written on it: Go to Shura City to rescue Ran Qingchen and Li Nanshuang.
Jiang Shouzhong turned his head and looked at the direction where the shadow disappeared just now, his brows furrowed.
Ran Qingchen and Li Nanshuang had been missing for several days. Because these two women were quite advanced, Jiang Shouzhong didn't worry too much, guessing that they might be tracking down something.
But at this moment, a piece of information to save people was suddenly thrown in. Jiang Shouzhong was not sure whether the information was true or false.
Who is delivering the information?
Could this be a trap?
You must know that his identity is Jiang Yi, and the other party directly asked him to save people. Either he knew his true identity, or he was just suspicious and deliberately testing.
Jiang Shouzhong was a little hesitant.
But in the end, he decided to take the risk and see what was going on.
"Master, I have to go out first and do my homework when I come back." Jiang Shouzhong said.
Dugu Luoxue did not embarrass him and nodded lightly.
Jiang Shouzhong put on his night clothes and went straight to Su's house.
Because he had been to Shura City, the underground palace before, and one of the passage entrances was at Su's house, so he arrived at the entrance by a familiar route.
His mind was always focused along the way, his spiritual sense was outward, and he carefully observed every slightest movement around him, but he failed to catch any signs of following him, and the wariness in his heart gradually dissipated.
Relying on his memory, Jiang Shouzhong came to the underground palace that had become ruins, and then passed through the deep and long passage to the shore of the Black Sea.
The endless black ocean, like a canopy pouring down from the vast night sky, spreads out and reaches the end of the horizon.
But compared to the mirror-like silence last time, the Black Sea at this moment seems to be stirred by an invisible force. The waves are rough and rolling, as if there is some big monster making waves on the bottom of the sea.
"Roar——"
In the dark shadow, a huge figure jumped out. It's the tiger monster that specializes in carrying people across the sea.
The tiger demon originally had a fierce look, but when it saw Jiang Shouzhong clearly, it suddenly froze. It subconsciously looked around, as if to confirm the knife-backed girl who beat it violently last time. Are you there?
After confirming that he was gone, the tiger demon breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to roar at Jiang Shouzhong, showing his demeanor as a tiger king.
"Take me to the other side." Jiang Shouzhong said.
The tiger demon snorted.
Jiang Shouzhong was too lazy to grind, so he took out the zodiac picture, raised the Seven Killing Sword, and made a gesture to collect it.
Last time, I saw Shangguan Yunjin use this magic weapon to collect the black dragon in the black sea. The tiger demon was stunned after seeing the zodiac sign, and immediately restrained his fierce expression and went into the sea obediently.
He turned around and hummed flatteringly at Jiang Shouzhong.
It seems to be saying: Brother, I just yelled twice, why are you so anxious?
Jiang Shouzhong put away the zodiac chart and sat on the tiger's back.
The tiger demon swam towards the other side.
Arrived at the shore, Jiang Shouzhong signaled the tiger demon to wait first, and he entered Shura City to search for the whereabouts of the two women.
Compared with the depression and silence last time, Shura City this time was vaguely surrounded by a layer of red mist, which looked a bit strange.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't know where Ran Qingchen and Li Nanshuang were, so he could only search blindly. Fortunately, he was lucky and quickly discovered a collapsed area.
This place had obviously just suffered a violent explosion, and the old houses were completely reduced to rubble.
"This should be caused by the big explosion before."
Jiang Shouchang thought about it and searched the area carefully, and soon found a tunnel with a half-collapsed entrance.
Jiang Shouzhong cleaned up the debris outside and got in.
The passage was very narrow, very hot, and exuded a faint fishy smell. The smell did not make people feel nauseated.
About a quarter of an hour later, he came out of the passage.
What appeared in front of us was a majestic palace whose scale was astonishing.
However, the surrounding scene is horrifying.
Around the palace, mountains of bones piled up, and the towering walls showed a strange blood-red color, as if dyed with the blood of thousands of creatures, giving people a strong visual impact.
In a trance, there seemed to be an invisible evil aura of murder spreading from the depths of the palace.
Jiang Shouzhong was stunned and speechless in shock.
I thought that there was an ancient Shura city hidden deep in the underground palace, which was already shocking. I didn’t expect that there was such a mysterious behemoth hidden under the ancient city.
Could this be the real headquarters of the Shura tribe?
At this moment, Jiang Shouzhong suddenly caught a glimpse of several figures appearing in the distance.
He hid subconsciously.
The figures slowly approached, and their conversation could be heard clearly.
“Have you found the person?”
“Not yet, but they did not enter the formation.”
“Then they fled to the west. Lao Meng, You lead two people to cover it from behind, and the others block the exit. Don't let these two girls escape!"
"Yes!"
"..."
After a few people left, Jiang Shouzhong emerged from the darkness with a gloomy expression.
From the conversations between these people, it can be determined that Ran Qingchen and Li Nanshuang are here, and the situation is not optimistic.
I don’t know how these two girls got here.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't think too much and quietly followed the leading group.
——
In the deep and empty stone chamber, the dull air seemed to be able to wring out water. The moisture invaded the muscles and corroded the bones, making it difficult to breathe.
Strings of small scarlet bells hang on the surrounding stone walls.
These bells are small, delicate, and extremely bright in color, but there is no copper inside.
On the floor of the stone chamber, there is a huge and ancient talisman. The lines are twisted and twisted, intertwined into a complex and incomprehensible totem.
"What a broken place is this."
Li Nanshuang lifted He wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, but accidentally got the blood on his sleeve. His fair face, which was stuck to his hair, was stained with a few traces of blood.
Next to him, Ran Qingchen looked pale and sat on the stone platform with one hand covering his abdomen.
There was blood oozing from the woman's abdomen, and she looked seriously injured.
Ran Qingchen said tiredly: "There is a record of the Shura clan in the six-door secret document library. The Shura clan was quite powerful at the time and even had its own army.
The famous Shura Undead Army , and the Snow Realm Divine Weapon are known as the two heavenly weapons.
So there is a saying of "Southern Shura, Northern Snow Realm"
Now the Snow Realm Divine Weapon is still there, but it is no longer there. The past was glorious. The Shura Undead Army has long been lost in history.
The place we are now is the Shura Undead Palace. A bell here represents the death of an undead soldier. ...cough cough cough..."
Halfway through, Ran Qingchen suddenly started coughing.
Li Nanshuang took out two pills and gave them to the woman, but the effect was not very good. There was no healing effect on the abdominal injuries or internal injuries caused by light dust.
This is extremely rare for monks in the Tianhuang Realm.
I can only say that this kind of injury is too weird.
Li Nanshuang blamed himself: "It's also my fault for being too greedy for success. If I had listened to you, I wouldn't be in this situation now."
Ran Qingchen stopped coughing and smiled bitterly: "There is no point in talking about this now."
She stared at the empty stone room and laughed at herself: "It's ironic to say that this is the second time I have been trapped. In Shura City. The last time I was trapped with others, I thought I was going to die. This time I was trapped with you, and I felt like I was really going to die.”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” br>Li Nanshuang frowned and muttered, "You stupid papaya is really stupid, why are you trying to save me?"
Ran Qingchen's pale jade face squeezed out a smile:
< br>
"I'm not used to owing others anything. You sacrificed your life to save me last time, and I have to pay it back. Otherwise, you will definitely show off this matter to Jiang Mo, making it seem like I am weak."
"Am I this kind of person?"
Li Nanshuang rolled her eyes, "Besides, you are indeed weak. When I saved you, I was not injured. You saved me, but you almost died. "It's so stupid to catch up."
Ran Qingchen stared at her: "Can it be the same? You don't see how strong the monster we met, if it weren't for the glazed lamp suddenly Broken it, bury it inside, do we still have a chance to escape?"
Although Li Nanshuang looked disdainful on the surface, he still felt frightened when he thought of the monster that suddenly appeared.
She has seen many monsters, but never anything like that.
It's disgusting and scary.
“Continue, what’s going on with this Shura Hall of the Dead?” Li Nanshuang asked curiously.
Ran Qingchen shook his head: "The records in the archives are not very clear, and a lot of information is incomplete. After all, a lot of recorded materials were burned when the previous dynasty fell.
The general meaning is that, apart from the Shura ancestors, the real leader of the Shura clan is a woman named Queen Shura. This woman was very murderous, and the bones outside the palace we see are her masterpieces. ”
