Chapter 305: The Red Luo Tent and the Jade Crisp Hand
readx;
Ling Tianyun and Zhao Kuangyin walked on the deserted street, they didn't expect that the fairy in the mouth of these residents would have such a great influence, and the whole city presented a whole empty city. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The shops on both sides of the street and the stalls on the corners of the street were unguarded, the shops did not even close their doors, and the goods from the stalls were not taken, but the people were nowhere to be seen.
The little thief Ma Chenghui followed behind them, he looked at the empty city with a curious expression, his eyes were surprised, and at the same time, there was a few traces of greed hidden in his surprised gaze. The nature of the bandit has not changed, and the life of robbing houses and houses for many years has allowed him to rob any good things or goods he sees and keep them for himself. But he still restrained the desire in his heart and obediently followed behind Zhao Kuangyin.
Walking on the clear and cold streets, the cold wind was blowing everywhere, and I didn't even see a single figure. Faintly, a cheer came into their ears, presumably where the residents of Nadingzhou admired the legendary fairy. Ling Tianyun and the three of them didn't go too fast, looking for the faint cheers and leaving.
After walking through a few streets and alleys, and walking for more than half an hour, they saw the figures in the shaking, and some people rushed away, all of them in the place of cheers. When Ling Tianyun saw the direction of the figure, it was the direction of the east of the city, and it should be outside the city. They followed a few figures who were hurrying there, and sure enough, they came to the east gate of Nadingzhou City, where more people were in a hurry and ran outside the city gate.
There were only a few listless soldiers wandering around under the city gates, and although they were all dressed in bright armor, their expressions revealed a bit of gloomy helplessness. The expressionless face looked at the group of passers-by who rushed out, and the weapons in their hands were also weak.
Ling Tianyun glanced at Zhao Kuangyin, he was puzzled, he didn't expect that the defense of this border city of Dingzhou was so loose, it could be said that these armors had become decorations. Any slightly elite army can easily take this Dingzhou City, and it will be effortless. Where did this group of listless armor have any combat effectiveness, except for the armor, they saw the temperament and spirit of any armor.
Looking up at the other armor standing guard on the city wall, although their mental outlook was slightly better, they still felt weak to Ling Tianyun. The weapons in his hands were already covered with layers of rust, and there was no trace of strong aura in his body. On the contrary, the residents here have an incomparably fierce atmosphere on their bodies and styles, but the soldiers defending the city are like weak scholars. Such a stark contrast made Ling Tianyun look down on this empire that was dominating the Central Plains, but the general of the Great Zhou Kingdom beside him had a normal face, and he didn't react at all because of Ling Tianyun's strange gaze.
Seeing that Zhao Kuangyin's face remained unchanged, Ling Tianyun muttered in his heart again, according to common sense, it was impossible for such a vulnerable defender to be ignored by Zhao Kuangyin, who was proficient in the art of war, unless there was something in it that he hadn't discovered yet. While following the passers-by who were taking advantage of the situation, Ling Tianyun carefully looked at the state of the defense on the city wall again.
However, he still didn't see any locks, and he could only wonder about following behind Zhao Kuangyin.
Walking out of the gate to the east of Nadingzhou City, a wide river like a dragon's roar appeared in front of him. The murky water roared down with a rushing momentum, and wisps of cold smoke appeared above the river. The wind blowing across the river swept away the yellow sand in the river, forming one after another wild waves, rising and falling, never stopping. What a magnificent river. Ling Tianyun couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he knew that this big river was the Yellow River.
And there was a large square in front of the city gate, and the residents of Dingzhou City who had come in time were gathered here, and at a glance there was a sea of people, elbows and shoulders. From time to time, there were bursts of cheers from the crowd, like the waves set up by the wind, and the joy was deafening like thunder. The emotions of the crowd were high, their eyes were full of excitement, and their faces were flushed red with excitement.
Zhao Kuangyin took Ling Tianyun and Ma Chenghui to avoid the crowd and stood on a small hillside, where the scene under the slope could be seen at a glance.
They could clearly see that there was a gorgeous ship parked in the center of the Yellow River four or five feet from the shore, and the colorful ribbons set off the gorgeous ship with a graceful and noble temperament. The two-story ship, the light white mist circulating on the ship, like a fairyland on earth above the river. It makes people feel relaxed and happy, full of longing, and wants to step up to the ship to see everything on the ship.
A few sleek figures danced on the deck above the ship, revealing a charming aura in their delicate postures. Those light figures are a few young beauties of twenty-eight years old, they are wearing light tulle long skirts, they are really like fairies in the fairyland, and the flickering snow-white skin exudes an intoxicating and charming atmosphere from time to time, which makes people suddenly feel like a horse in reverie.
Ling Tianyun stared at it, and in the center of the ship was a woman in a palace dress wearing a thin veil on her face, obviously this woman was the owner of this ship. The light gauze like smoke palace dress reveals the noble and elegant temperament of this woman, because the woman wears a layer of tulle, giving people a sense of mystery in the clouds. I couldn't get a glimpse of her whole picture, and I couldn't know her age, but I could only see her glass-like eyes shooting out like autumn water.
The palace woman stood on the bow of the boat, and her incomparably delicate posture exuded a light and dusty temperament, coupled with the faint mist that lingered around her. It's simply that the Nine Heavens Fairy descended to the mortal world, and people can't afford any blasphemy. The woman in the palace costume held a lotus-shaped treasure vase in her hand, and with a solemn face, she poured a wisp of jade-like water into the Yellow River.
She finished the movements in her hands, and the young ladies who were dancing on the deck of the ship also stopped, and stood behind the woman in palace clothes. Holding the vase in her hand, the woman in the palace costume looked around at the people on the shore for a while, and made a silent gesture.
Suddenly, there was silence for everyone standing on the shore, but their eyes could not hide the burning admiration. There was a high emotion on their faces, and the blazing light in their eyes was woven into a large net, as if they wanted to keep the few young beauties standing on the ship.
The crowd stopped cheering, and the woman in the palace costume had an incomparably solemn expression on her face, and several rays of incomparably compassionate gaze shot out of her eyes.
"Our Lady of the White Lotus passes through this place, you are all the people of Our Lady who loves the most, and Our Lady will bless her people from disasters. Today, it is the apparition of Our Lady to meet the people of Our Lady. He specially asked his disciples to offer a bottle of holy water and pour it into the Yellow River, so that her people could drink the water of the Yellow River without disaster and live a long life. ”
The voice of the woman in the palace costume was not loud, but it reached the ears of everyone present. Her tone was filled with endless compassion and compassion, as if she were the Mother of Great Compassion. And her tone has a faint supreme majesty, which makes people have the urge to worship, and the seductive words reveal a clear and cold tone, she is the embodiment of the Holy Mother of Mercy who fell into the world and saved the people from fire and water.
"Our Lady apparitions, Our Lady apparitions!!" Sure enough, the group of people standing in front of Dingzhou City by the Yellow River knelt down one after another, shouting in their mouths. Suddenly, there was a crowd of people kneeling down in the dark, and they shouted in their mouths, and they kept bowing to the ships on the Yellow River. In their hearts, the women on the ship were the fairies in their hearts, and the women in the palace clothes were the embodiment of the Virgin.
Ling Tianyun and Zhao Kuangyin, who were standing on the hillside, had solemn expressions on their faces, they didn't expect that with such a few words, the residents of Dingzhou City would kneel and worship like gods. Ling Tianyun and Zhao Kuangyin looked at each other speechlessly, and a stormy wave rose in their hearts at the same time, while Ma Chenghui, who was standing beside Zhao Kuangyin, had a calm face, he was not bewitched in any way, nor was he confused by the ethereal voice like a fairy sound on the ship.
"A group of demonic gossip from the White Lotus Sect to confuse all the evil cultists", a sentence suddenly burst out of Ma Chenghui's mouth, and a hateful look shot out of his eyes. The bandit, who has always been taciturn, took the initiative to speak at this time, and said through gritted teeth. His face became distorted with resentment, making Ling Tianyun and Zhao Kuangyin stunned at the same time, as if there was some hidden story in this that bandit.
"Yes, it is the cult of the White Lotus Sect, they serve them by educating the people and fooling the world, advocating the mercy of the Virgin, and the whole world is the people of the Virgin." Zhao Kuangyin's eyes shot a sharp light, and he said solemnly. And what is more in his eyes is a look of jealousy, a group of cults that mainly educate the people and fool the people, but they can end up with so many people's hearts, how can this not make him jealous in his heart.
"Sons of Our Lady, let me show you the miracle of Our Lady today." The woman in palace clothes standing at the bow of the boat clearly saw Ling Tianyun and the three of them standing on the shore, and a cold light shot out of her eyes, but she quickly hid it. She let go of her hands and pressed them against the river, silently chanting incantation-like words.
After reciting a few incantations, I saw her slender hand on the surface of the river lifted, and suddenly, a vision suddenly appeared.
I saw that the wind swept the river and immediately rolled wildly, and there was a wave of turbulence, and then, the rough river suddenly rushed out of several water columns. The majestic column of water rushed straight to the gray sky, like a bucket-thick column of water with a yellow and white stream of water, like four dragons rushing up from the river.
At this time, the wind was fierce, and the rolling water column lasted for several breaths, and then there was a "whoosh", and it turned into a little rain of water in the air and drifted towards the kneeling crowd.
The eyes of the prostrate people shot an eager and reverent gaze, and the water fell on them, causing them to say again: "The apparition of the Virgin, long live the Virgin." ”。 Everyone reverently did not wipe away the drops of water that had fallen on them, and they regarded them as gifts from the Virgin Mary, dipped in holy water, and kept themselves safe and sound for the rest of their lives.
"Sons of Our Lady, Our Lady will choose among you a person who is destined to be a disciple of Our Lady, are you willing?" The palace woman's eyes swept over the three people standing on the hillside, and a strange light shot out of her eyes. She waved her slender hand holding the treasure bottle again, and said in a coquettish voice.
"We are willing to become disciples of Our Lady, please have mercy on Our Lady," cheered the people who could not bow down, and they could not hide their surprise. They have seen with their own eyes the divine skill of the Virgin, and if they have such a divine skill, they will not be able to get it with glory and wealth.
Seeing the palace woman on the bow of the boat looking at the three of them, a bad feeling flashed in Ling Tianyun's heart. And the next sentence of the palace dress woman made him feel uneasy in his heart, and he knew that the palace dress woman's words were aimed at the three of them. Although the woman in the palace costume didn't know how to make the surging river water lift up a few bucket-thick columns of water, there must be something strange about this one. Although he didn't understand how this was done, he knew that the other party must have used shady means.
