156 “Blessing from Heavenly Official” Chapter 155

☆, 155 The mountain is high and the road is far and narrow.

Xie Lian walked slowly over the crushed vermillion flowers on the ground. He saw a little red rose on Huacheng’s shoulder. He wanted to brush it off for him, but suddenly realized that this action was too intimate. He suppressed it forcibly, put his hand behind his back, and said with a smile: “I didn’t know that in addition to bringing blood rain, you can also bring flying flowers. Interesting, interesting.”

Huacheng also approached him, casually brushed the petals on his shoulder, and smiled: “This is an improvisation, a new trick created today. It was originally a routine to have a bloody rain, but suddenly I thought that my brother was here. If you get wet, don’t you blame me? So I reined in the cliff and turned into a flower. It’s fun.”

However, Xie Lian was not wet, but Pei Ming was.He said in the air: “Excuse me, you two, let me down first, okay?”

Several silver butterflies fluttered up, their phosphorescent wings cutting through the grid, and Pei Ming was able to escape and land safely.Xie Lian lowered his head and saw a silver butterfly sitting in the center of the butterfly bone on Lingwen’s back, and said: “Sanlang, are Lingwen and Jinyi Xian okay?”

Huacheng said: “No problem. I let them sleep together temporarily.”

Xie Lian said curiously: “This Jinyi Immortal is so violent, but you can subdue him quickly.”

Huacheng raised his eyebrows and said: “It’s okay. For some reason, it doesn’t seem to want to fight me.”

After pondering for a moment, he thanked Lian and said, “It’s true. You wore it before, and it couldn’t do anything to you, and it even showed its appearance.”

At this time, Pei Ming came over and said, “You two, let’s talk later. Why don’t you take off his clothes first?”

Thanks for the pity: “Isn’t this… not very convenient?”

Pei Ming didn’t take it seriously: “He is a male prime minister now, what’s the inconvenience?” He started to move his hands.However, as soon as he stretched his hand to Lingwen’s collar, he felt as if he was stabbed hard by something. His face changed drastically, and he pulled it back suddenly, his hand covered with blood, and said: “This clothes! It can bite people!”

Huacheng then said leisurely: “The Jinyi Immortal refuses to let go of Lingwen, and he can’t take it off.”

Pei Ming looked at his two bloody hands and said, “If this happens again, can the Ghost King tell you earlier?”

Xie Lian said warmly: “General Pei, it’s not that he didn’t tell you earlier, it’s that you acted too quickly.”

Huacheng said happily: “That’s it.”

“…”

Although he was disabled, he was still strong-willed. If the three of them had to go back the same way, one of them had to carry the male prime minister’s spiritual text. Pei Ming still took the initiative to shoulder this responsibility.

Pei Su and Ban Yue were still staying in the original town. The group of people gathered near the Wuyong Temple. As soon as he saw them coming back, Pei Su strode up to greet them and said: “Your Highness, Mrs. General, the mural in the god’s temple has disappeared!”

Pei Ming held the spirit text in one hand, wiped the bloody hair back with the other, and said, “What mural?”

Seeing that Pei Ming was all purple and red, Ban Yue opened her eyes wide.Xie Lian briefly said a few words to Pei Ming, and then followed Pei Su back to the temple to check.Sure enough, the original wall had become exactly the same as the other three charred walls that had been burned by fire, as if there had never been any murals.

Huacheng took his hand off the wall and said: “The mural was made with magic.”

Xie Lian nodded and said: “Perhaps the person who left it has concerns and does not dare to let it exist for too long.”

Over there, Ban Yue hesitated for a long time, but still said to Pei Ming, who was all purple: “Are you… okay?”

Pei Ming glanced at her and threatened, “Ask your snake, is it okay if it bites me like this?”

Pei Su opened his mouth, not sure if he should say something fair.Ban Yue’s eyes opened even wider, and he mumbled in defense: “But… being bitten by a scorpion-tailed snake will not spread to the whole body and become like this…”

Pei Ming raised his left hand with tooth marks and waved it in front of her, proving that he had indeed been bitten.There was so much “irrefutable evidence” that Ban Yue could only say: “I’m sorry…”

Pei Su couldn’t stand it any longer, so he patted her shoulder and said, “No, I don’t care. It’s not yours, it’s a snake bite.”

Xie Lian couldn’t stand it anymore and said helplessly: “General Pei, can you please stop teasing the little girl like this? It’s time.”

However, the source of Pei Ming’s life lies in this. He used magic power to wash away the blood on his body, and his face was radiant. He laughed and said: “Isn’t the little girl just meant to be teased? Besides, Banyue Imperial Master is hundreds of years old. What kind of little girl is she? Are you still afraid of her being ashamed?”

“…” Everyone ignored him.

Although Pei Su’s sentences were not good, he could move freely and took over the task of carrying the spirit text. The group walked through the town and continued to the next level of Tonglu Mountain.

One day later, everyone came to a small canyon.

There are towering mountains and rocky cliffs on both sides of the canyon, with a mountain road in the middle.After walking here, Lingwen finally woke up in a daze.

Although he woke up, he was still unable to move because the silver butterfly was still firmly perched on his back.Lingwen didn’t change his expression when he found that he was being carried on someone’s shoulders. He just said in confusion: “…Why are there so many people? Why are you all here? Isn’t this Tonglu Mountain?”

Pei Ming said: “That’s too much? Let me tell you, there will be more people later, and there are some you haven’t seen yet, so we can join a few tables to play cards.”

Xie Lian also felt the same and couldn’t help laughing.After a pause, he said: “By the way, Lingwen, Qiying was chasing you at Bodhisattva Temple before. Where is he now?”

Lingwen said: “I don’t know. After entering Tonglu Mountain, too many inhuman things came in, and His Highness Qiying lost him. I don’t know where he is now.”

Pei Ming sighed to Lingwen: “You didn’t tell me that you were the one who took away the last life-saving straw from Xuli Country. It’s so unkind.”

Xie Lian then remembered that Pei Ming was also from the Xuli country.However, he seemed to have no feelings for Xuli Kingdom anymore. After all, he was just a general, not the king, and he was tricked by the king before he ascended. Therefore, there was no sadness and emotion in his words, and most of them were ridicule.However, Xie Lian was worried that talking too much about the Xu Li Congress would anger Jin Yixian, so he quickly changed the topic and turned around and asked: “Sanlang, actually I have always had a question.”

After entering the canyon, Huacheng has been observing the mountains on both sides attentively and said: “Ask.”

Xie Lian said: “What exactly is the ‘Bronze Furnace’ in Tonglu Mountain? Is it really just a big furnace?”

Huacheng smiled, looked away, and said, “Of course not. But it’s a coincidence that my brother asked.” He raised his finger and said, “Just right, I can see it now.”

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and for a moment, they all stopped involuntarily.

Xie Lian said: “…That’s…’Bronze Furnace’?”

Huacheng crossed his arms and said: “Not bad.”

His dark eyes reflected a huge mountain far away.

Far away in the sky, high in the world, above the peaks, it is a deep blue color. The peak of the mountain is surrounded by sea of ​​clouds and sky wind, and a layer of snow can be faintly seen, like an ice field that never melts all year round.

Huacheng said slowly: “‘Tonglu’ is an active volcano and the center of the entire Tonglu Mountain. When the Ghost King is born, it is when it wakes up.”

Xie Lian said: “A volcanic eruption?”

Huacheng said: “Yes. Therefore, the desperate ghost kings are all born with flames, magma, and disasters that destroy the world.”

Imagining the hot scene that made the eyes red, Xie Lian was slightly lost in thought.Pei Ming said: “It’s too far. If we go at this speed, it will take a long time, not counting the time spent fighting ghosts along the way.”

Xie Lian nodded and said: “So fighting in the mountains in the past generations is like a difficult childbirth.”

Huacheng smiled and said: “Brother, this metaphor is very wonderful.” After saying that, he suddenly stopped and said, “We’re here.”

“???” Xie Lian was stunned, “So fast?”

Huacheng said: “We’re here. However, we’re not at the Tonglu, but at the Wuyong Temple.”

Sure enough, in the center of the canyon ahead, a tall and crooked palace appeared.

This is the second Wuyong Temple they have encountered.Xie Lian could hardly help but want to rub his eyes and wondered: “Is this temple real?”

You can’t blame him for this. In fact, almost everyone is doubting whether this temple is real.Because it appeared so unexpectedly.

It shouldn’t be here at all.Has anyone ever seen a palace or temple built in a narrow canyon?What kind of shit is this?

Even if you can’t think about it, if you have to build it in such a place, you should at least build it on one side. However, this Wuyong Temple is built carelessly in the middle of the canyon passage, like a brainless little overlord, directly blocking the road through the canyon!

Pei Ming said in a deep voice: “There must be monsters when something goes wrong, so be careful.”

Lingwen was on Pei Su’s shoulder, raising his head with all his strength and saying, “Everyone, if you don’t want to enter it, you can actually fly over the cliff and walk over the wall.”

Xie Lian said: “No. We have to go in and see if there are any murals.”

Huacheng said: “Don’t worry, brother, you can go and see if you want. It’s no big deal.”

When he said this, everyone felt at ease inexplicably, and the group slowly approached.There was nothing unusual until we walked to the temple.After walking through the gate and entering the main hall, sure enough, the walls of the temple here were also dark in color after being burned by fire. When I picked them lightly, just like the previous temple, a small hard fragment fell off.

Xie Lian was very vigilant from the beginning. Now, it seems that there is nothing lurking in the dark. He felt a little relieved, so he said: “Let’s do it.”

After a while, the charred “protective layer” on the wall was removed bit by bit, revealing the mural behind it.Xie Lian and Hua Cheng studied it carefully together.

The content of the murals in this temple is completely different from the previous one.They looked at it from the top. At the top of the screen, a young man in white was sitting on a jade couch with clear and handsome features. He was none other than Prince Wuyong.His eyes were closed, and judging from his posture, he seemed to be meditating.However, it is not stable.

His Highness the Crown Prince frowned, and a few drops of cold sweat seemed to flow from his forehead.Surrounded by four figures, all with worried expressions on their faces, they are the four guardian gods who were ranked below the prince in the previous mural. Their appearance, hair and clothing are exactly the same as the previous mural.Continuing to look down, the protective layer was still slowly peeling off and had not yet been removed. Xie Lian saw a mess of red, frowned slightly and said: “Weird.”

He stretched out his hand and touched the wall gently, wondering: “Is this mural poorly preserved?”

Although you can’t see clearly what is specifically painted, you can see that the lines and colors in this area are blurry and hazy, as if covered with a layer of light smoke and blurred.However, this mural was transformed by magic, so how could it not be as well preserved as the real mural?

Huacheng was also taking a closer look, frowned, and said, “Wait a little longer.”

The two looked at each other.And when the charred hard objects receded and the picture was complete, they took a few steps back and looked side by side again.When the whole picture came into view, Xie Lian’s breath suffocated slightly, and his scalp suddenly became numb.

He said in confusion: “Is this… hell?”
