Chapter 301 The Thoughts of the Two Girls
As a Yanrong princess, Yelu Miaomiao knew the demon clan quite well because of the Queen Mother Xiao’s cooperation with the demon clan, especially the legendary figure Qu Hongling.
However, Yan Rong and the Tianyao Sect are somewhat hostile.
Because Empress Dowager Xiao once took the initiative to recruit the Tianyao Sect, but was rejected, and finally cooperated with Ten Thousand Beasts Lin.
The Ten Thousand Beasts Forest and the Heavenly Demon Sect cannot deal with each other.
With Yan Rong as a huge backer, Ten Thousand Beasts Forest was always against the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Similarly, when Qu Hongling heard the name "Yelü Miaomiao", she was startled for a moment, then slightly widened her watery apricot eyes and said in surprise: "You are the princess of Yanrong."
“I didn’t expect Sect Master Qu to know about me.”
Yelü Miaomiao smiled.
Qu Hongling was in a complicated mood.
Logically speaking, the two of them were enemies, but they didn't expect that they would be saved by this princess.
Yelu Miaomiao looked at Qu Hongling, who was seriously injured, and expressed doubts: "How come you, the master of the demon clan, came to such a place? Who is chasing you?"
Qu Hongling did not answer, but asked curiously: "What place is this?"
"Wind Rift Valley."
"Wind Rift Valley?"
Qu Hongling was shocked when he heard this, and asked in amazement, "The forbidden area of Wanxiang Shenmen?"
As a well-known Taoist sect in the world, Wanxiang Shenmen once competed with Daoxuan Mountain to be the leader of Taoism. Bit. And the biggest foundation is the Wind Rift Valley.
A Taoist saint once sat here.
Queen Shura once came here to retreat, and finally created the "Wanxiang Senluo Dafa".
Yelu Miaomiao smiled and nodded: "Yes, I came in by chance. There was a guy who held up a mountain and broke the three avenues of the Mysterious God Altar of the Wanxiang God Gate, causing the forbidden land method to be destroyed. Many people fish in troubled waters and sneak in, hoping to get opportunities.”
After hearing what Yelu Miaomiao said, Qu Hongling suddenly realized.
No wonder I can come to this place, it turns out that the forbidden land method has been destroyed.
I don’t know which immortal figure was able to break the Mysterious God Altar of the Three Avenues of the Vientiane God Gate. But this is good, at least it gives Brother Xiao Jiang and the others a chance to escape.
"So, the person who followed me just now is also an outsider who sneaked into the forbidden area."
Qu Hongling thought secretly.
Seeing Qu Hongling's uncertain expression, Yelu Miaomiao thought she was trying to seize opportunities here, and said with a smile: "Sect Master Qu, I know there is a place where you can recuperate your injuries. How about I take you there?"
Qu Hongling frowned slightly: "Why do you want to help me?"
"Of course I'm negotiating terms with you."
Yelü Miaomiao didn't hide her thoughts. Then, he expressed his purpose: "I want to discuss cooperation with you."
"Cooperation?" Qu Hongling's beautiful eyes twitched, "Aren't you cooperating with Ten Thousand Beasts Forest?"
< br>
Yelu Miaomiao's almond-shaped eyes were filled with a smile, and she casually brushed her hair and said, "In any case, the true orthodoxy of the Demon Clan is the Heavenly Demon Sect. If Sect Master Qu is willing to cooperate, we can help you clear some obstacles. For example...internal."
Qu Hongling was not fooled by the other party's pie, and she still did not trust the Yan Rong represented by the other party.
However, the sincerity shown by Yelu Miaomiao was not adulterated. She could feel this, so she had a good impression of the rumored princess of the prairie.
Perhaps understanding that Qu Hongling was in trouble, Yelu smiled wonderfully and said:
"Zong Master Qu, there is no need to answer me in a hurry. I'd better take you to heal your injuries first. There are many outsiders sneaking into this place. , and the Wanxiang Shenmen is also arresting outsiders, and even released the machine stone men. Your current situation is still very dangerous.”
Qu Hongling hesitated for a moment and nodded gently: "Then please trouble Your Highness the Princess."
The other party is right, healing is the most important thing right now.
As long as he recovers from his injuries, he will be able to go out to find Sister Nan Shuang and Brother Xiao Jiang.
“Just call me Miaomiao.”
Yelu Miaomiao smiled, slightly twisted her thin round gourd waist with deep curves, and led Qu Hongling into the deep forest.
After half a stick of incense, the two came to a cave.
The interior of the cave is not as dark and light as the outside world imagines, but there is a weak, almost imperceptible light coming from the cracks in the rocks.
There is a stone bed formed from natural rocks and covered with a thin layer of moss.
In the middle of the cave, there is a small clear pool.
The water in the pool is crystal clear, like an uncut jasper embedded in this tranquility. There is a gentle mist on the surface of the pool water, and you can feel the thick cold air when you get closer.
"This place is a cave where Queen Shura once stayed."
Yelü Miaomiao pointed at the pool and said, "This is called the 'Blood-coagulating Cold Pool', which has excellent healing ability. However, after time has passed, If it lasts too long, the effect will not be as good as before. But it is enough to heal your injuries."
Qu Hongling looked at the cave and saw some traces of deliberate destruction on the cave wall, guessing. Said: "In the past, these cave walls should have been engraved with the formulas of Wanxiang Senluo Dafa."
Yelü Miaomiao nodded lightly: "Yes, after Wanxiang Shenmen rubbed it, Destroyed the words on the stone wall. But the secret method of Wanxiang Senluo is not only in this cave, this is just one of them."
As he said that, Yelu Miaomiao took out a baggage from the corner. A clean dress was handed to her.
"I'm about the same figure as you, a little taller than you, so I should be able to wear it."
Qu Hongling took the dress with a strange expression: "How long have you been here?"
Yelu Miaomiao said: "Originally I planned to go to the capital, but when I passed by, I happened to see the gate of the forbidden area being destroyed. I remembered that there was a treasure inside that I needed very much, so I sneaked in. It's been almost a day and a half. "
A look of annoyance suddenly appeared on the girl's face. She knocked on her head and muttered: "Actually, I shouldn't have come in. I originally wanted to find my husband..."
< br>Yelü Miaomiao sighed and smiled at Qu Hongling:
"Anyway, you can rest assured to heal your injuries here, and I will help you protect the law outside. After you recover, you have to help me snatch a treasure as a reward, how about it?"
Qu Hongling smiled: "Okay. "
"Then it's settled, I believe the leader of the Tianyao Sect will not cheat."
Yelu Miaomiao blinked and turned around to walk out of the cave.
Watching the girl leave, Qu Hongling lowered his head and smelled the dress in his hand. There was nothing unusual except for the faint scent of jasmine.
She carefully inspected the cave again, and after confirming that there was nothing hidden here, Qu Hongling raised the corners of her lips and murmured: "This little princess of Yanrong is quite lovable."
Qu Hongling Ling took off his blood-stained clothes and entered the clear pool.
As soon as I stepped into the water, a biting chill instantly invaded my body, but soon the chill faded away and became warm.
Qu Hongling's external injuries began to heal gradually under the nourishment of the pool water, and his internal injuries were also gradually repaired.
……
outside the cave.
Yelü Miaomiao sat lazily on a raised stone, with one leg stretched out and the other bent.
The veil on her face has been taken off by her.
Compared to the last time we left, the girl's cheeks have become slightly thinner, but her skin is smoother, as if it has a layer of luster - this is the effect of Dharma beauty.
Yelü Miaomiao held a pot of kumiss in her hand and drank it with her head raised.
A drop of white wine slowly slid down the corner of her lips, passed over the girl's snow-colored and slender neck, and then slowly seeped into the skirt of her clothes, blending with the snow-capped mountains. The same fragrance, full of mellow flavor.
No matter at any time, the girl always has a heroic temperament and a heroic appearance.
Yelu Miaomiao looked at the capital, then looked in the direction of Yanrong, and sighed: "If I had known that becoming a high priest would require me to pray in the holy land for three hundred days, I wouldn't have done it. I ran out secretly this time. The Queen Mother must be angry.”
The girl took a sip of kumiss and had a headache.
But she has no regrets.
She has been separated from Jiang Mo for a long time. If she prays for another three hundred days, Jiang Mo will probably forget her.
Just be scolded, but don’t lose your love.
If we can get that treasure from the Vientiane God's gated area this time and give it to the Queen Mother, I believe the Queen Mother will not be angry and punish her.
“Jiang Mo, Jiang Mo, you don’t know how to come to me.”
Yelu Miaomiao had some complaints about men.
Could this guy be in love with another woman again?
The girl suddenly thought.
If this is the case, then...just...
Yelümiao thought for a long time, but could not say anything harsh, and finally whispered viciously: "If you dare If you fool around with other women, I’ll castrate you!”
——
The moment Ran Qingchen left, a spy presented the news on the desk in Emperor Dazhou’s study room.
Zhou Chang looked at the contents of the secret letter and fell into deep thought.
After a while, the old prisoner came to the study and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to stop her?"
Zhou Chang asked back: "Can we start?"
The old eunuch shook his head and said: "There is still a little bit of heat left."
Zhou Chang stood up and walked to a portrait. He looked at the fairy-like woman holding a sword in the painting and said lightly: "Let her Go, as long as the Ran family is here, she has to come back."
"Okay."
The old prisoner nodded gently.
Zhou Chang suddenly asked: "How is the case at Wanyue?"
The old supervisor was stroking his long eyebrows and said worriedly:
"It is still under investigation. Princess Yingmo has just woken up. According to her, she only saw a man in black breaking into the room. , and then she was knocked unconscious."
Speaking of this, the old prisoner couldn't help but feel scared.
When people found the body of the eldest princess, all the bones in her body were broken. Obviously, the murderer had a lot of hatred for the eldest princess.
"Is it related to Jiang Mo?" Zhou Chang raised his eyebrows.
The old eunuch said: "I'm not sure. The whole city has been searched at the six gates."
Zhou Chang rubbed his brows and sighed:
"I thought Wanyue was here. The girl is better than her sister Xiyue, but in the end she is just a little clever. This girl has disappointed me after all."
The old prisoner asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, the funeral of the eldest princess... ”
“Let’s put it aside for now”
Zhou Chang waved his hand and said calmly, "Queen Shura's matter is the most important right now. You sent people to follow Ran Qingchen in the dark. I am not afraid that she will run away, but I am afraid that someone will be watching her."
Obviously. , compared to the then crown prince Zhou Huan, Zhou Chang was not very sad about his daughter's death at all.
Besides, he also gave Zhou Wanyue a chance to rise to power.
As a princess, Naihe only knows how to seduce men to obtain political benefits.
It’s strange to have a good impression of such a daughter.
The family affection in the emperor's family is always as indifferent as smoke and disappears as soon as it blows.
“I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
Zhou Chang said lightly.
The old eunuch was thinking about the prince's sudden return to Beijing, and couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, is the prince really the relic of the First Emperor?"
The relic of the First Emperor that the old eunuch was talking about, It is a legend that has been passed down for two thousand years.
When the First Emperor died, tens of thousands of terracotta warriors were buried with him. These terracotta warriors were made from human sacrifices. Each of them was highly cultivated and guarded the First Emperor's mausoleum.
To be precise, these warriors are the living dead.
Any living person who enters the tomb will be killed by the warriors.
The most famous sword corpse of the Master of Mingjian Mountain borrowed the sacrificial casting method of the terracotta warriors to forge the living into the dead.
During the chaos in Qingzhou, Qin Tianjian was originally worried that the sword corpses of Master Mingjian Mountain would escape, causing the situation to get out of control. As a result, I made preparations in advance, but all the sword corpses disappeared.
According to the second son of the famous sword mountain master, the old sword god had destroyed the sword corpse.
Back to the topic.
According to rumors, if one can successfully enter the ruins and find the jade seal of the Kingdom of Zhenguo that the First Emperor once engraved, "He who has been ordered by heaven to live long and prosperous" can take control of these terracotta warriors.
When the time comes, whether it is the Snowy Divine Soldier or the Shura Undead Army, they can only be younger brothers in front of the soldiers.
Of course, this rumor is just a rumor.
For more than two thousand years, dynasties have changed continuously. Every country has tried to find the remains of the First Emperor, but they have failed. All kinds of clues and rumors are flying everywhere.
The most reliable clue was related to the Mohist family.
It is said that the Mohists were the tombkeepers of the imperial mausoleums.
The Mohist family's ruthless silence was to prevent future generations from falling into adultery, which would lead to others taking advantage of it, and causing the First Emperor's imperial mausoleum to suffer external intrusion.
However, even if the Moh family was wiped out at that time, no information related to the imperial mausoleum could be obtained.
Now that the prince suddenly came back and said that he had found clues to the remains of the First Emperor, Zhou Chang didn't take it too seriously or get excited.
To put it bluntly, even if the ruins are really discovered, whether you can go in or not is still two different things.
Only a dead person can enter.
But the question is, what’s the use of going in after a person dies.
Zhou Chang said lightly: "Jian'er said it is related to the Netherworld Divine Spring in the Yixiantian. Only Qu Hongling, the young master of the Tianyao Sect, has been to that place. If there really are relics of the First Emperor, the Yao clan They have been dispatched a long time ago, but there is no movement at the moment, so it is not very credible.”
The old supervisor frowned and said: "But if we can really find it, we may be able to use the power of Queen Shura to enter the ruins."
Zhou Chang waved his hand gently: "People can't be too greedy. It's already very easy to control the Shura Undead Army." That's right, and we don't have extra time to explore the remains of the First Emperor.
Of course, if Jian'er really finds it and is able to go in, everyone will be happy. If not, I will hand over the undead army to him. , can we defeat the Yan Rong army in one fell swoop?"
Zhou Chang opened the window, looked at the imperial city of Nuo Da, and murmured: "I can't wait that long, I... really wait. It won’t be that long.”
