Undercurrent surging puppets
There are glaciers within a hundred miles outside of Beifeng City. The train is driving on the ice and snow and leaves in a blink of an eye.
The Pucan covered the steaming teacup and took a sip. There were not many people in the train, and most of the sparse passengers were drowsy.
"Why do I have to go with you? You can just go by yourself? Anyway, it was assigned by Duke Nalan and Queen. Do they dare to kill you?" asked the ghost in a pissful way. He came to vacation all the time, but when he encountered such a mess, he was busy endlessly, and he was so angry that he was so angry that he was so angry that he was so angry.
"What are you shouting? If Ye is fine, do you think I'm willing to bring you here." Kuo rubbed his temples, and he began to miss Ye and he said nothing all day long.
"I still don't understand. What can you do if you are ordered to go? Will they obediently listen to you and surrender?"
"Although Nolan participated in the cabinet political discussion in Beifeng City, he had many fiefs. His lords were spread across the northern cities and resisted many foreign invasions. He had unknown how many troops there were, and his power was deeply rooted and called the Guardian of Beiye. For such an ancient family, just Duke Nalan and the Iron Guards, do you think it is feasible to pacify it within a month?"
"Probably...it's impossible."
"That's all right. Even your brain knows that it's impossible. Will Duke Nalan and Queen not know? Will I not know?"
"Then why did they make such a decision? If the Nuo family is pacified, wouldn't it be a joke?" asked in confusion.
"You know I have many identities, such as Duke Nalan's collaborator, the queen's confidant, Lingwan's teacher, and...puppets, so this decision was of course my suggestion."
Pu put down the black tea in his hand, paused and continued, "Right is like an addictive poison. As long as you taste it, you will be unable to stop. Even if you have to pay the price, Duke Nalan is the same, and the vassals of the No family are the same. For the current generation, the early covenant is like waste paper that can be abandoned. On one side is the crumbling No family. I don't need to say much about the fate of failure. On the other side are Duke Nalan and the Regent Queen, who are at the peak of their lives, show that loyalty can be safe and sound, and sometimes it is equivalent to gaining if you don't lose it."
"I don't think they will fail. The defending troops of Beifeng City alone will be a headache. If these vassals make up their minds to help the Nuo family, it is not impossible to start a coup." Gui shook his head and said, not optimistic about this approach at all.
"If they did have the intention to rebel, but they wouldn't. Ye Bei was a wise monarch. Why were the vassals and alliances of the Nuo family willing to follow Nolan, because he assisted Ye Bei and protected the Beiye Kingdom. So what now? Once the news of Nolan's assassination of Ye Bei spread, do you think those vassals who claim to be loyal will continue to follow him? Is it worth taking such a big risk to launch a civil war? Besides, the Beiye Kingdom has not experienced war for many years. Too many people have never seen life and death. They dare not start a war. They just want to enjoy beauty and wine in their own territory. At this time, I only need them to express their opinions and lose nothing. They can still have a loyal reputation for nothing. Why not do it?" The Pu sneered. The Nuo family seemed huge, but in fact it had been full of holes inside. Just push it gently and it would fall apart.
"Even so, the Nuo family has its own fiefdom and army, and there are tens of thousands of defending troops in Beifeng City, which can advance or retreat. Once they take action, they only need troops to defend each main city, so they will completely close down Beifeng City. Duke Nalan alone may not have any chance of winning." The ghost still couldn't guess what method the Puppet wanted to use to eradicate the Nuo family.
"The City Guardian Army? Haha, the City Guardian Army belongs to the Nuo family. At least before I go back, the Nuo family will be left with only servants and fiefdoms. Of course, in the end, they will lose all of these together, and they will have nothing in the true sense. Do you understand?" The Puppet flicked the teacup gently, causing waves.
"Yes, you and Ye have been here for five years. Zero has handed you the hardest bone to you. This little thing is indeed not a problem, but aren't you afraid of any changes? For example, that external demon." The ghost whispered.
"The chessboard is clear, and most of the changes are caused by negligence. I have done everything I can. As for the external demon, I have fallen and just wait for him to enter the game." Kuo smiled slightly. So far, all the changes were in his calculations. If there were any unexpected changes, there were only Qiu left.
...
Undercurrents outside the world were surging, and Lingwan was inevitably affected. Many families' descendants were taken back, but only civilian students stayed in Lingwan. Lingwan simply suspended classes. Last night, more than 30 people died in the medical area and the entire building was destroyed. The murderer is still being investigated. But what is strange is that Qiu not only did not express his opinion, but even did not show his face.
The news of the Nuo family assassinating Ye Bei spread all over the place. After the queen was regent, she immediately asked Duke Nalan to pacify the Nuo family within one month, without giving any chance to explain. At this moment, all forces were at odds and everyone was nervous.
However, there are also people with relatively rough nerves who don’t care about these things at all.
It’s like Qiangwei, such as coup or assassination. Although she heard many versions of rumors, she didn’t care. She was useless to care about this kind of thing. The biggest doubt now is what she gave birth to yesterday. But Mo Qiunian didn’t know after asking, Xiao Shu pretended to be stupid, and who was this girl named Die?
She could accept that her inexplicable memory was missing and woke up in the dormitory, or she could accept that the lemon crispy fish apple pie, which was completely incomprehensible, as breakfast, but she could not accept that the medical area would not live forever.
"Do you want it..."
The butterfly's voice sounded in Xiao Shu's mind. She couldn't stand Qiangwei's endless questioning. It's been all day long. Qiangwei, who doesn't have to attend class, stayed here. In the name of making up for the lesson, she kept beating indirectly and trying to slander Xiao Shu's words.
Mo Qiunian was very depressed. He also wanted to ask what he had given birth yesterday, but he knew that Rose Wei would not say it until she left, so he could only read the book absent-mindedly, but in fact he didn't read it at all.
"I told you everything I know. At that time, you and Qiunian had never come back, so I went to find you. But I knew that the place had become a ruin. If it weren't for the butterfly who rescued you who were unconscious, I'm afraid I wouldn't have come back."
Xiao Shu has been repeating this sentence for the tenth time. He doesn't want Rose to be involved. Living ignorant is better than knowing everything but facing death at any time. This matter involves the royal family and major families of the Beiye Kingdom. Even if she, a teacher of Lingwan, can do what she can do, it won't be worth the loss.
"Okay...but..."
"No, but instead of asking if there are any of these, it is better to teach me and Qiu Nian why some spells can be instantly, some spells need to be chanted and guided by spiritual arrays, and some spells need to be engraved with the spirit array in advance?"
"Yes, I want to know too, teach me, Sister Qiangwei." Die responded.
"This is simple, I can tell you."
Xiao Shu was about to change the topic when he saw Mo Ling'er standing at the door. She also learned the bad habit of Qiangwei entering the room without knocking on the door. However, her eyes were exactly the same as Qiangwei, and she only said, "I have a question and want to ask you."
Can't hide it anymore.
Xiao Shu sighed inwardly. As expected, as soon as Qiangwei and Mo Ling'er met, his words would become full of mistakes. However, with Butterfly there, he was not worried.
Without Xiao Shu's words, Butterfly already understood what to do. An irresistible mental power surged out and swept everyone in the room, including Xiao Shu, Qiang Wei and Mo Qiunian, fainted immediately. She didn't need to deliberately suppress her power, and Xiao Shu would not be affected anyway.
“Huh…”
"It seems that I'm right. I saw all the illusions last night."
The ice-blue spiritual array was spread all over Mo Ling'er's cheeks. Although it looked very strange, it effectively resisted the power of the butterfly. Even so, she still struggled. It was difficult for the great spiritual scholar to maintain this spiritual array.
With just one sentence, the spiritual array has begun to dim, and the power of the butterfly is too terrifying. Even if Mo Ling'er is prepared, when she is really facing it, she feels that she is thinking too simple. The absorption of spiritual power can no longer keep up with it, and she can only use herself to make up for it. After a moment, when her spiritual power is exhausted, the spiritual array will completely collapse.
“I thought we were friends…”
Mo Ling'er's smile was a little bitter. If the other party insisted on doing it alone, then she would not be able to change the result regardless of whether she persisted or not.
"friend……"
Butterfly subconsciously restrained her strength. This sentence sounded so familiar, just like someone said exactly the same thing to her yesterday, but she couldn't remember who that person was.
The head hurts very much.
It hurts so much that I can't stand.
My heart hurts very much, too.
It hurts so much that I can't breathe.
Mo Ling'er felt that the pressure was reduced sharply. Her originally drowsy head returned to her awakening, and her body softened and she sat on the ground, feeling like she had survived the disaster.
"What's wrong with her?"
Xiao Shu shook his head and reached out to support the shaking butterfly, but she threw it away.
"Don't...don't come here..."
The headache was so split that it seemed like something was about to gush out of my head. Butterfly squatted down and hugged her head, and could no longer sense the existence of the outside world.
“I thought we were friends…”
So scary...Who are you...Why...
Butterfly murmured to himself.
"Take them away! The farther the better!"
Xiao Shu sternly said to Mo Ling'er that the surrounding scenes had begun to change, and the world in front of him was between reality and illusion. This power was definitely not something that Mo Ling'er could bear. Qiangwei and Mo Qiunian were in a coma. Once they were involved, they would have to peel off even if they were not dead.
"What do you do?"
"Don't worry, I can't die."
Mo Ling'er knew that she couldn't help and even had difficulty protecting herself, so she could only escape from the room with Qiangwei and Mo Qiunian.
The illusion gradually spread along the walls and the ground, ashes drifting away, and the world was only gray.
