Chapter four hundred and ninety-eighth(1/2)
The sun is getting higher, and the heat waves are rising everywhere, rushing towards people's faces. However, around the Furong Pond, there are a few wisps of coolness, which makes the head that was originally a little swollen and painful suddenly feel...
Get clear.
Luokui pursed her thin lips that were slightly dry, and touched the low-hanging willow branches flowing in the wind. Her fingertips were dyed with the emerald color, and the bright light burned on them. The emerald color seemed to be alive, swaying slightly and giving birth to endless waves.
Life. She sighed in her heart. She had finally taken this step after all calculations. From the day Wen Yuan had an accident, she was destined to have no stable life. Today's path is just her choice to face it head-on.
It's just a lot of confusion. If those unknowable secrets can really be revealed, then there will be nothing to regret about today's events.
Step by step, she moved back to Feiyan Palace and just sat down in Qingyan Palace. Luokui took a sip of the warm tea with a hint of bitterness, looked at Xiao Qizi and said: "Xiao Qizi, for the people in the palace, you have to give me
Keep an eye on me, if Luluo, Huoxiang and others appear again, I will never let you off lightly."
Xiao Qi Zi was stunned, whispered yes, and slowly retreated. Ma Qing looked at his figure, hesitated slightly and said: "Master, do you want to..."
Luokui slowly turned the small cup on her fingertips and smiled slightly: "Ma Qing, I'm finally going to take that step, what do you think?"
"Miss, no matter what your current status is or what you want to do, Ma Qing will never leave you."
"Okay." Luokui nodded heavily: "Ma Lian, you avoid others and carefully invite Po Jun over. If you want to succeed, I have to borrow his strength."
Not long after, Po Jun came in cautiously. Before he could speak, Luo Kui ordered someone to look at the seats: "It's such a hot day, I'm sorry for bothering Manager Li to make a trip."
Po Jun hurriedly stood up and replied respectfully: "What can you say, noble man? It is a blessing for me to be able to run errands for you. How many people can't get what you ask for, so how can there be any complaints? But, I just don't know what noble man has."
What orders?"
Luokui smiled slightly and took a sip of tea: "Mr. Li, there is no need to panic. What I ask for is just a small thing. For Mr. Li, it is a piece of cake."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and walked to the window. Looking up, the sky was already burning with sunset, and the colors were spreading out and changing. At dusk, the wind started, blowing away wisps of floating clouds, and carrying a little warmth.
Throwing himself through the screen window.
The brocade-like sunset casts onto the Hibiscus Pond, and there are all kinds of brilliance in the constant changes, making people unable to take their eyes away. Like a top-notch beauty embryo, the most beautiful years have just emerged, and they have already amazed everything in the world.
As soon as the sky darkened, the Qianqing Palace held a lamp, and Kong Qing leaned under the lamp, concentrating on writing something. Po Jun walked up to him holding the lamp and candle, and whispered: "Your Highness, it's time for dinner.
Do you want me to go down and pass on the food?"
Kong Qing paused with the pen on his fingertips and said without raising his head: "It's just those few things I've been tossing over and over again. I really don't have much appetite."
"Then what His Highness wants to use, I will tell you to go down and prepare it." Po Jun hurriedly bowed and replied.
Kong Qing put down his pen with a "pop" sound, put his hand on his forehead and rubbed it gently: "Let's make a bowl of sour plum soup."
"Your Highness, if you want to say that the one in Feiyan Palace is the best at making sour plum soup, there are so many variations of just one bowl of sour plum soup that I can't count them all." Po Jun bowed and smiled.
Kong Qing tapped the desk with his fingertips: "Well, your subordinate is very clever and sent a message to Feiyan Palace that I want to go there for dinner."
Luokui stretched out her hand and put away all the dominoes. She smiled even more heartily: "I'm making a lot of money this time."
Su Zi rubbed her bangs covering her forehead and said with a smile, "Isn't that right? You just got lucky."
Luokui rolled her eyes, snorted, and raised her eyes to look at the undulating Demon Spirit Mountains, which was the end of their trip and the most important place.
The midday sun fell on the far away Demon Spirit Mountains, bringing with it bits of gold and a hint of warmth.
Luokui raised her eyes and looked into the distance: "Let's go, get out of the city."
The man in gray robe was slightly startled: "Your Majesty, it will take an extra day to go out of the city."
Luokui smiled: "Just stay away, I don't want to run into them."
The man in gray robe bowed slightly: "That subordinate will continue to guard here."
Luokui nodded: "You have to be extra careful and don't reveal your whereabouts."
The man in gray robe should say so.
This group of people wandered around the Demon Palace, and then hurriedly retreated out. They did not meet any sect, and they came and went in a hurry.
The rolling Demon Spirit Mountain Range is completely barren. It should have been a time of lush vegetation, but there are no flowers or trees in this mountain, only rocks.
The group of people walked meandering through the mountains, pushing aside boulders blocking the road from time to time. The boulders rolled to the bottom of the cliff, making a loud rumbling sound.
Luokui and his party drove all day and night without rest, and finally arrived at the Demon Spirit Mountains at noon the next day.

These people seemed to be tireless. After arriving at the Demon Spirit Mountains, they only stopped to drink a few sips of water and took a few bites of dry cakes before galloping into the depths of the mountains.
It wasn't until dusk set in and the clouds rolled in that everyone stopped in a deserted mountain col.
This mountain col is surrounded by mountain walls. Only a few feet of the mountain wall has a very small and narrow entrance, which can only allow one person to enter and exit.
Someone in blood-robed clothes had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing Luokui and others approaching, they hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty."
Luokui looked around. The high mountain walls reached into the sky. The rocks on the mountain were rugged, forming countless irregular bumps.
She looked at the disciples who were leaning against the mountain wall, knocking and listening, and narrowed her cold eyes: "You haven't found the entrance to the Demon Palace yet."
The man in blood robe whispered: "My subordinates are incompetent. After setting up the formation, they have been looking for the entrance, but found nothing."
Luokui nodded: "It's not so easy to find the Demonic Palace of Ghost Emperor Yehe, but we have the upper hand and we have plenty of time to find it slowly."
Su Zi looked around and saw that it was almost getting dark. He patted Luokui on the shoulder and said: "Luokui, it's almost getting dark. I'll take my people and search carefully again, otherwise I'll have to sleep here.
Already."
Luokui nodded and walked slowly in this empty mountain valley. The sand and stones under his feet were not as rugged as the rocks on the mountain wall. Instead, they were very round, as if they had been continuously washed by the river.
She walked around the mountain wall and slowly touched the rocks with her hands. She was surprised to find that from bottom to top, these rocks were as round as the sand and gravel under her feet. She looked up and saw that these round rocks spread to several feet.
Somewhere high.
A few feet above, the rocks become jagged and weird.
She subconsciously felt that this place should once have been a lake, and these traces were clearly left by the water washing away day and night.
It was getting dark, and fires were burning and crackling all around.
The firelight swayed, casting dark shadows of varying lengths.
It was expected that the entrance to the Demon Palace was hard to find. Luo Kui called Su Zi over and said, "It's getting late and I can't see clearly. Let's ask all the disciples to come back and tidy up. We'll start again at dawn tomorrow."
try to find."
Su Zi responded and asked Maxin to settle the disciples.
Luokui found a sheltered place from the wind and sat down against the mountain wall.
She was really a little tired. After traveling and planning all this time, the Demon Palace was right in front of her. Even before she found the entrance, her mind relaxed. With this relaxation, her eyebrows drooped and she fell asleep.
past.
"Luokui, Luokui, wake up, eat something before going to sleep."
Hearing a soft cry, Luokui opened his eyes in a daze. Before he could see the person in front of him clearly, he smelled the aroma of roasting.
It turned out that Su Zi was holding a roasted, brown and plump chicken leg. The aroma of meat mixed with cumin penetrated his nostrils.
Luokui straightened up quickly, took the chicken leg and took a bite. It was so delicious that she nodded repeatedly: "You hunted it."
Su Zi sat down side by side, holding his knees, and smiled absently: "How can I do this? It's just Ma Xinlie."
Luokui Xunyi glanced at Su Zi and asked puzzledly: "What's wrong with you? Why do you feel something is wrong?"
Su Zi covered his heart, shook his head and said: "I don't know what happened. As soon as I came to the Demonic Mountains, I felt so flustered. I walked around outside the Demonic Palace just now and I almost fainted from the panic.
It’s over.”
Luokui glanced sideways at Su Zi and said with a sneer: "You must have done something bad here in your previous life and killed a girl here, so you feel so guilty."
Su Zi snorted: "Don't talk nonsense. After entering this place, I felt that my cultivation that I had been suppressing became manic, and I couldn't suppress it anymore."
"What." Luokui was stunned for a moment, straightened up quickly, and said in surprise: "Ah, I can't suppress it anymore, Su Zi, are you trying to break through the realm here?"
Su Zi rubbed his eyebrows and sighed: "I don't know, I'll try my best to suppress it."
Luokui patted the back of Su Zi's hand and advised: "It's okay. I've been suppressed for so many years. Just break through. There's nothing wrong with breaking through here. The cultivation of Zhengyang Dao has been suppressed by demonic energy. They
He is so preoccupied with searching for the ghost emperor’s treasure that he has no time to deal with us.”
Su Zi wiped Luo Kui's oily mouth with a handkerchief and smiled casually: "I know, don't you still need me? I've broken through the realm and entrusted you with the matter of protecting the Dharma."
Luokui groaned and lay on her back. The sky was full of stars, and the cold light shone, making the moonlight become dim and unclear.
The moonlight is like water, and inadvertently, it is trapped in this mountain col, and it is scattered on the surrounding mountain walls, and the light and shadow are swaying.
Luokui stared intently, and the dark shadows on the dark mountain wall emerged with strange and changing outlines. These outlines looked familiar.
A ray of white light flashed across the mourning platform, and Luo Kui straightened up, startling Su Zi.
"What are you doing? You've eaten to hold yourself up. Get up to eat." Su Zi said with a smile.
Luokui didn't say anything, she just raised her head and circled in the mountain col, constantly patrolling the surrounding mountain walls.
Su Zi followed Luo Kui and looked up, but didn't see any clues.
Luokui's eyes gradually became clearer. She knelt down, flicked her sleeves, and countless dominoes fell to the ground. She buried her head in them and started searching.
Su Zi bent over and looked at it curiously for a long time before saying, "Isn't this the domino that was obtained from the sacrifice of the leader of the Demon Spirit Tribe? Does it have anything to do with this place?"
Luokui rummaged through the dominoes and said without raising her head: "I don't know yet. Let's look around. Su Zi, ask my disciple to come over and shine a light on me. It's a bit dark and I can't see clearly."
