Chapter 193: Behind the Screen
Jiang Nanjun finally escaped from the collapsed Zixu Mountain at the last second and returned to reality.
After coming out of "The Secret Chronicles of Shenwu", he has been sitting on the Luohan bed and not moving.
A palace maid quietly looked into his meditation hall a few times, then withdrew, stood under the eaves, said a few words to the heavens, and then smiled mysteriously, and flashed into an ear room next to the hall.
He was always immersed in the pain of parting with his great-grandfather, and he couldn't extricate himself, so he had no sense of what was happening around him.
After sitting like this for several hours, he suddenly came back to his senses.
Looking around blankly, remembering that he had already returned, but he was still wearing a tattered clothes, covered with thick dust and dirt, he called someone to bring in the washing water, cleaned up, changed into a clean white brocade robe, and sat down along the side of Luohan's bed, leaning on the carbon basin to continue in a daze.
In the charcoal fire, you can barely see the original shape of the book, which is a boxy ash block. He tried to see if he could still find a little bit of the page inside, but as soon as he touched it with tongs, the ash was completely scattered and buried in the pile of carbon.
"Shenwu Secret Chronicles", but the painstaking work written by the great ancestor in his life, can only remain in memory forever.
He remembered in his grief that Jiang Nanyan had not left nothing, and hurriedly found the bottle containing the Rui Snake Pill and the slender emerald bagpipe from the pile of torn clothes.
He held these two things in his hand and rubbed them for a long time before he reluctantly found a small cabinet and stored them well.
At the end of his journey to the Divine Book, he had passed all the trials and tribulations and obtained the cross, and now it was time to consider how to begin the next step.
Only with divine blood can one obtain the qualification to assemble the imperial crown, that is to say, the person who undertakes this task can only be one of Yun Qing and Shui Ling'er.
Although Jiang Nanyan repeatedly warned that Yun Qing could not be allowed to touch the cross trick no matter what, he did not give up on her, always hoping that if she finally got the things she pursued all her life, would she be able to abandon evil and follow good after her wish was realized?
He couldn't make up his mind for a while, but thought of his brother-in-law, the Son of Heaven.
Caracal is an outsider, and he is not familiar with Shui Ling'er and Yun Qing, so it is more objective for him to decide? Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still any longer and decided to ask for the opinion of the caracal.
Stepping off the Luohan bed and leaving the meditation hall, he paced and walked towards the Fan Yao Palace.
The fact that Jiang Nanjun was hiding in the Tomb of Despair had long been listed as the top secret of the Heaven/Dynasty by the Son of Heaven, and no one was allowed to reveal it to the outside world. A secluded and uninhabited path, connecting the Jingxin Hall and the Fan Yao Palace, if Jiang Nanjun wants to meet him, he needs to walk along the path, and then pass through a very hidden secret door in Guò to enter the Fan Yao Palace.
However, since he moved into the meditation hall, it was the first time he had gone to look for the caracal.
Walking on the path, he kept looking behind him vigilantly, and seeing that no one was following, he entered through the side door, and went all the way forward, hiding behind the screen where the little flea had been.
The caracal was sitting in front of the bookcase, intently reviewing the mountain-like recitals.
When Jiang Nanjun saw him, he felt a little cordial, and was about to go out to say hello, but he heard the news from the guards outside the Fan Yao Palace, and Elder Nanfeng asked to see him.
This wicked man actually picked up this time, Jiang Nanjun was secretly surprised, and hurriedly hid back in the screen, not daring to make a sound. He only hoped that after the demon Dao finished what he wanted to say, he would leave as much as he could.
When he heard that it was him visiting, he couldn't help but be stunned, and replied in disgust, "Let him in." ”
Elder Nanfeng received permission, and with a panicked face, he rushed in from outside the door, tripped over the carpet under his feet, and almost fell in front of the heavenly steps.
Seeing his appearance, Caracal put away his disgusted expression, and his tone showed a little concern, and asked, "Father, why are you so alarmed?" ”
Nanfeng stood firm, called to the sky and said: "Son of Heaven, for the sake of your love for the poor Dao, save her!" ”
The caracal was stunned again, and asked puzzledly: "Father, which one are you singing?" Who is she? ”
Nanfeng seemed to be in a hurry and was incoherent, and said loudly: "She is my unscrupulous apprentice, Ghost King Yunqing!" ”
This sentence, the Son of Heaven couldn't react for a while, but the man hiding behind the screen "groaned" in his heart, and almost shouted.
He hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands and continued to listen.
At this time, he had already remembered who the ghost king Yunqing was, and then looked at Nanfeng's playful face, and he was suspicious in his heart, knowing that he must be playing some conspiracy again, so he didn't answer, but snorted heavily in his nose.
Seeing that his attitude was so cold, Nanfeng was so anxious that his voice trembled, and he said again and again: "Son of Heaven, you have a lot of adults, and you don't know as much as a villain like me!" It's just that this matter is urgent, so you don't have to be so indifferent and ruthless to me anymore! Father knows that there have been many things that have been wrong with me in the past, and you have disappointed me, but this time, I am begging you from the bottom of my heart! The ghost king became my apprentice a hundred years ago, and no matter how bad it is, this century-old love cannot be erased. Now she doesn't listen to my advice, she insists on being strong, and she runs to Jiluo Mountain alone to provoke Xi Muxian, and is captured by others, if I don't come to the rescue, she will definitely be more than lucky!
