Chapter 066: Mask
The sun is shining.
It's been three days since that earth-shattering explosion.
This explosion on the outskirts of the capital completely plunged the entire capital into chaos. Of course, this kind of chaos does not refer to the common people, but to the officialdom and administrative chaos. This explosion, although only in the suburbs, brought much more shocks than that.
The investigators deduced the amount of gunpowder from the scale of the explosion, and when this amount appeared in the hands of the Son of Dang, not only the Son of Heaven, but also those who investigated were almost frightened. With so much gunpowder, if you get it well, I'm afraid of the Forbidden City......
Is there someone who wants to rebel?
This is the first impression that everyone has when they get the results of the survey.
In the face of such a large amount of gunpowder, there are many people from top to bottom who want to get to the bottom of it, otherwise once the investigation can't find anything, I'm afraid that the unlucky ones will be others.
Whether it is the pressure from above or themselves, the people of the government have worked hard to investigate this matter.
For a time, many martial arts people who lingered in the capital were interrogated.
Joy Inn.
Room.
Or the third floor.
Or by the window.
Yue Yuan sat quietly on the chair and looked out intently.
Beside him, it was Shang Xiuxun who was cautious and distressed to apply Jinchuang medicine to Yue Yuan.
Yue Yuan's injuries were more severe than Shang Xiuxun had imagined.
Not to mention the flame burns caused by the explosion, the shock caused by the air wave alone had already put Yue Yuan's life hanging by a thread at the center of the explosion. It can be said that this is almost the most dangerous one for Yue Yuan so far. Even with his ability, in this sudden explosion, when he was not on his side when the land was favorable, he could only save his own life.
If you were someone else, I was afraid that what was waiting for them would be just a broken result.
But even if he saved his own life and survived the horrific explosion. The price that can be paid is also heart-wrenching for Shang Xiuxun. The Immortal Recipe has the ability to heal itself, not to mention its ability in combination with Yue Yuan's own realm.
It's just that right now, this longevity recipe and the power of Long Yuan were used by Yue Yuan to forcibly protect his internal organs and head at that time, so as to avoid being shocked to death by the terrifying sound wave of that moment.
Yue Yuan has used the lion's roar skill and used sound waves to deal with others, but it is the first time that he has endured this power that is more terrifying than ordinary sound waves.
Right now...... He's healing.
It's just that it's an internal injury...... As for the external injury, it could only be temporarily shelved by Yue Yuan himself. If it's normal, it's not worth worrying, but it's only a few days away that the Mid-Autumn Festival will come. That day was the time for the decisive battle, but Yue Yuan was no longer allowed to have enough time.
A white cloth wraps around his body.
Shang Xiuxun was almost applying gold and medicine to Yue Yuan with tears in her eyes, she never expected that Yue Yuan's injuries would be so heavy. In fact, in comparison, the external injuries are far inferior to the internal injuries. But in the eyes of a woman, this trauma is extremely terrifying.
Because the owner of the beauty farm never thought that Yue Yuan, who was leisurely and chic, would suffer the price of disfigurement one day......
A beautiful man who can almost be described as beautiful in appearance gets such an ending, how does this make Shang Xiuxun accept? The distress in her heart cannot be described in words, only the eyes that have been soaked with tears represent her mood.
This distressed Shang Xiuxun did not say it in words, but only expressed it in his moist eyes and gentle jade hands.
She knew the man in front of her.
But even so. Shang Xiuxun saw that there were almost no intact places on Yue Yuan's body, so she couldn't help but twitch in her heart. Apply the medicine little by little, and then gently wrap it in a white cloth, and after a while, Yue Yuan is white all over his body.
The only thing that came out was a pair of dark and clear eyes.
"How's it going?"
looked at Shang Xiuxun's movements gently. Yue Yuan looked at her hair, which was still a little burnt, and asked.
"It's not good." Shang Xiuxun knew what Yue Yuan was asking, but the result still made her feel shocked, "A lot of people died." ”
looked at Shang Xiuxun's somewhat hesitant expression. Yue Yuan asked directly, "How much is a lot?" ”
"......" After the two looked at each other for a long time, Shang Xiuxun took a deep breath and said, "Tens of thousands!" ”
Tens of thousands of people died. This is the news she got from the government through the relationship between Guò Yuelai Inn. Although the Tsing Yi Lou stronghold is located in the suburbs, it does not mean that this place is uninhabited.
The earthquake caused by the huge explosion and the sound of the explosion swept directly across the surrounding area for miles.
Not everyone can survive this wave of sound like Shang Xiuxun, and the shock and sound wave directly overturned many private houses, as if an earthquake really happened. Many people were killed by the collapsed beams in their sleep.
Add to that the chaos that comes ......
The casualties caused in the end made Shang Xiuxun feel shocked.
“……”
Hearing this, Yue Yuan was silent.
Long.
Shang Xiuxun said in a slightly deep voice: "But I have already asked someone to arrange and solve it." ”
Neither of them expected that a simple matter of dealing with a traitor would lead to such an outcome.
In addition, in that battle, I am afraid that there is a descendant related to myself who also fell in this explosion. With that kind of explosion, when the exit mechanism was completely locked, after killing Huo Xiu, I was afraid that no one would be able to survive in that kind of explosion except myself.
“……”
Yue Yuan remained silent.
At this time, even Shang Xiuxun didn't know what Yue Yuan was thinking in her heart, but she could feel a different kind of heaviness.
"That's right." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little solemn, Shang Xiuxun changed the topic and said pointedly: "That Gongsun Lan has come here these days and wants to see you, but I refused...... I think she seems to have guessed something. ”
"I don't want anyone else to see you like this."
"Anyone!"
Shang Xiuxun's tone was quite excited, and the jade hand stroked Yue Yuan's face wrapped in white cloth again, rubbing it gently, but the tears that had been swirling in the eye sockets finally couldn't help but slide out of the eye sockets and fall, and finally landed on Yue Yuan's legs.
Astringent tears sank into the white cloth. It seeped into the wound, making Yue Yuan feel a strange pain.
It's long but there's a kind of bone.
"It's fine." Yue Yuan grabbed Shang Xiuxun's jade hand with his right hand and comforted: "You know that I will grow a life secret, these injuries only need to take some time, and they are not a big deal. ”
"But I just don't want anyone else to see you like this."
Holding Yue Yuan's right hand with his backhand, Shang Xiuxun's appearance was very serious, and he said, "This decisive battle will be canceled or postponed!" ”
"No way!"
Hearing this, Yue Yuan refused directly without thinking about it, and said in a stern tone: "This decisive battle is imperative. "Others may not know, but Yue Yuan doesn't understand. Three-in-one. The date of the decisive battle will not fluctuate in any way due to anything.
"But I don't want you to fight a decisive battle with such a posture!"
With slightly red eyes, Shang Xiuxun stared at Yue Yuan and said word by word.
What was the woman in front of her worried about, what was she thinking in her heart, Yue Yuan knew, smiled slightly, the pain from the wound was ignored by Yue Yuan, and after stroking Shang Xiuxun's jade face with her left hand, it was a pity that the white cloth on her hands could not give people the best touch. Yue Yuan gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes for the other party, and said with a smile: "Then the owner of the beauty field will make me something that can cover my current appearance......
“……”
Tilting his head slightly, holding back the tears that were about to flow out again, Shang Xiuxun finally nodded his head.
Red Shoes Stronghold.
As the eldest sister, Gongsun Lan is sitting in her seat in a daze at the moment.
And at her side. It was the eighth Xue Bing and the fourth Ouyang Qing who were standing, and the two girls were staring at their eldest sister in a daze in their seats in a daze at the moment, and that situation was the first time the two women had seen each other for many years. As for the others, they were sent by Gongsun Lan to track the traces of Shangguan Feiyan and Huo Tianqing.
The two men fled without a trace after the explosion that day.
What's the matter with the eldest sister?
Xue Bing and Ouyang Qing glanced at each other. They all found their own doubts in each other's eyes, but they didn't know why. As for themselves, in fact, during this time, they can't help but be alone in a quiet daze. It's just that this situation is indeed its own secret, and I don't dare and don't want other sisters to find out.
Especially after that happened with the red shoes.
In the end, it was the eighth Xue Bing who exited, broke the signs of Gongsun Lan's daze, and said, "Eldest sister, we found traces of the second sister in the suburbs of Beijing...... Second sister, the situation is not very good. ”
"Huh?"
With her thoughts turning, Gongsun Lan came back from her daze, staring at Xue Bing with her eyes fixed, waiting for her next words. Erniang's escape, Gongsun Lan had already guessed that someone had let go because of sisterhood, and she knew that she would naturally not ask.
But at this moment, when she heard the news of Erniang again, Gongsun Lan was a little surprised, "What's wrong with her?" ”
"The second sister is crazy."
It was the fourth elder Ouyang Qing who replied, and her face had a kind of empathetic sadness, "The second sister is constantly digging with her bare hands in the place where the explosion occurred, and she seems to be looking for someone...... But because of the arresters and guards of the government, in the end, the second sister fought with them and was besieged and seriously injured......"
"So you saved her?" Hearing this, Gongsun Lan took over the conversation and looked at Xue Bing and Ouyang Qing, who had fallen silent. After a while, Gongsun Lan sighed, and then said, "Let's go, take me to see her." ”
Xue Bing and Ouyang Qing glanced at each other, then turned around and took the eldest sister towards the room where Erniang was placed.
It's just that when the three of them came to the room, they only saw the corpse of the second child.
The unkempt Erniang held a piece of scorched fire in her hand, and could only roughly analyze that it was a piece of pink clothes.
Looking at this scene, the three girls were stunned and were silent for a long time.
Five days later.
There are only two days left before the day of the decisive battle.
But on this day, Gongsun Lan finally met the person she wanted to see at the Yuelai Inn.
As the door opened, Gongsun Lan saw the person sitting inside, but the moment she caught her eyes, she was stunned at the door, looking at Yue Yuan standing in the room in a daze.
Covered in a black robe.
His hands were wearing a pair of black gloves, and the whole person was hidden in this luxurious black robe.
And that's not all.
The other party also wears a rather peculiar black mask on his head. This mask is different from ordinary masks, it looks quite weird and atmospheric, wrapping the whole person's head, and it seems to be linked to the black robe.
And overhead, there is a strange crescent moon.
It can be said that the whole person is in it, so that outsiders can't see or see the appearance of people at all. The whole person gives people a strange and mysterious feeling.
"How ......"
Yue Yuan slowly turned around, revealing the only pair of eyes revealed in front of the person in this outfit, and said, "Can't you recognize me?" ”
"You!"
Gongsun Lan was dumbfounded, she had imagined and guessed, but she didn't expect that the meeting would be like this again.
"What am I?"
"I'm still me!"
Stretching out his hand to make an inviting gesture, Yue Yuan pointed to the wine jug on the table, and said with a smile: "I was about to drink, you came just in time, the wine needs a beautiful woman to pour, it is delicious enough." ”
“……”
Taking a deep breath, Aunt Gongsun stepped in, did not speak, just walked to the table, picked up the wine jug and filled the two wine glasses with wine, then sat down, and then looked at the familiar stranger in front of him blankly.
What really happened that day? (To be continued......)
PS: Hmm, it's 2 more today.
