I opened the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 154: Fire in the Bridal Chamber

"Who!" I roared with my eyes wide open, my voice was like a huge bell, shaking the leaves around me, and the power was strong enough to shake the palace three times, and the whole place was full of extreme vigilance. At this moment, my nerves were instantly stretched tighter than a bowstring, and my eyes were like torches, staring at the direction where the black shadow disappeared.

The shadow was like a ghost, faster than a thousand-mile horse, and disappeared into the night in a flash, like a ghost, in the blink of an eye, without even a trace of clothes left. This sudden change made the doubts in my heart snowball, growing bigger and bigger, it was simply a super tangled mess that could not be cut off even with a sword.

Yueying's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a mosquito to death. She looked worried and said, "Brother Xiangtian, be careful, there might be some evil villains coming to cause trouble." Her voice was shaking like a leaf in the wind, with anxiety and uneasiness that could drown the entire imperial city.

My face was as solemn as a piece of black iron, and I nodded vigorously, knowing that the situation was more complicated than the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation, and more dangerous than entering a dragon's den and a tiger's lair. I held Yueying and Xueqi's hands tightly, and my knuckles were almost white from the force.

Yueying and Xueqi also looked as nervous as if they were going to be executed. They were concentrating so much that their eyes were almost popping out of their heads, and they didn't dare to relax for even a moment.

The three of us followed closely behind Zhu Di, looking so cautious, as if we were dancing on tiptoes on the tip of a needle. If we were not careful, we would be pierced with holes.

Every step feels like stepping on red-hot charcoal. The scorching heat seems to penetrate the soles of the shoes and into the soles of the feet, making people shudder. Every step feels like testing the edge of life and death, fearing that if you make a mistake, you will fall into the bottomless abyss set by the bad guys and never recover.

The night wind blew, frantically stirring the corners of our clothes, making a "whoosh" roaring sound. In this deadly silent atmosphere, the sound was like the roar of an evil spirit, particularly harsh and shocking. This sound seemed to be a terrifying prelude, foreshadowing the coming terrible disaster, making people's nerves tense to the extreme, as if they would break in the next second, and making people almost faint.

My heartbeat was like a thousand war drums roaring at the same time, and the violent vibration seemed to burst through my chest. The beads of sweat that oozed out of my forehead gathered into a turbulent stream and rolled down my cheeks. However, my eyes were always as firm as iron, and I dared not deviate even a little bit, as if if I relaxed a little, countless devil claws in the darkness would instantly drag me into the endless abyss.

At this moment, Niu Lili opened her red lips and said in a sweet voice: "Brother Xiangtian, your sisters are with you and will protect you. We are not afraid of even the most evil villain in the world." She swayed her waist and looked charming. Her delicate figure looked even more charming under the moonlight, which was enough to charm thousands of knights.

Xiaoling also echoed, "Yes, we won't let Brother Xiangtian fall into danger, even if the leader of the martial arts world comes." She moved lightly with lotus steps, her figure graceful, her face slightly raised, in the reflection of the moonlight, her skin was as white as snow, with a charming luster, bright enough to be a night pearl.

Mei Fei's eyes were as determined as if she was about to charge into the battlefield. Her watery eyes were full of affection. She shouted at the top of her voice, "Brother Xiangtian! Look at the fire in Anle Palace. It's so strong that it can burn a hole in the sky! If we use it to cook hot pot, it will be so fragrant that even the gods will drool! Or if we have a barbecue, wow, the meat roasted by this fire will probably be so fragrant that it will make people's teeth fall off!"

She was graceful and elegant, but she stood there like a tumbler, swaying from side to side. The breeze blew gently, and her clothes fluttered in disarray, like a butterfly blown dizzy by the wind. But this also showed her charming and moving posture, as if she could easily twist her waist and make the martial arts heroes like drunk, unable to tell east from west and north from south, and even bumping into the wall when walking!

The princess held the spear tightly, and she looked as if she was going to wield it as a golden hoop stick. She was as heroic as a female war goddess on the battlefield, but upon closer inspection, she was still gentle and beautiful like a girl. She said coquettishly: "Brother Xiangtian, you can go forward boldly without worry. I'm here. Those evil villains will be so scared when they see me that they will wet their pants and run away from us!" Her spine as straight as a bamboo and her eyes so determined that they could stare out cracks in stones, made people unable to help but be impressed. To such an extent that if she were on the hillside, she could roll all the way to the moat outside the city gate and take a bath at the same time!

Chunhua smiled sweetly, her smile was sweeter than a honey pot, her eyes were longing, and a blink of her eyes could capture people's souls. She said softly, "Brother Xiangtian, I will always be by your side, even if the world is in chaos, I will never leave!" Her smile was like a blooming spring flower, bright enough to illuminate the night, and so cute that people wanted to pinch her face. Her smile warmed people's hearts, so warm that it could melt the icebergs in the Arctic into hot springs, and polar bears could take a comfortable bath in it!

Lu Xiaofeng folded his fan, raised the corners of his mouth, and said in a casual and unrestrained manner: "Everyone, it's better to be careful. The evil villain might release aphrodisiac incense to attack us." The delicate face and wild and unrestrained temperament formed a strong contrast, exuding a unique charm of a charming woman, which could make the heroes of the world dizzy.

Xi Shi whispered softly, "Brother Xiangtian, be careful not to fall into the trap of the evil villain." Her voice was soft and melodious, like a yellow oriole singing out of a valley. Her graceful figure and shy look were very endearing.

Diao Chan's colorful silk fluttered, her beautiful eyes moved, and she pouted her lips and said coquettishly: "Brother Xiangtian, don't panic, come! Let's deal with these evil villains first!" Her every frown and smile was full of charm.

Qingzhao said: "Brother Xiangtian, do you think I can be a female Zhuge Liang who can help you with advice?" She had an elegant temperament, and her dignity was also a bit charming.

Li Lili gripped the dagger tightly, her body nimble, and said: "I'll lead the way! Let's see which evil thief dares to block the way." Her courageous expression and agile posture had a unique charm.

Chang'e said: "Brother Xiangtian, I am here, I will be your shield!" Her clothes fluttered, her figure and beauty were like a fairy descending to the earth, dazzling people!

Chu Liuxiang waved her short sword, looking heroic yet charming, and said, "Brother Xiangtian, hold me tight."

After some hard work, the fire was finally brought under control. Zhu Di stood there with a gloomy face, saying nothing, his solemn expression seemed to be thinking about the conspiracy behind this series of strange events.

At this time, a Jinyiwei came in hurriedly and panicked: "Your Majesty, it's not good. Some strange signs have been found in the palace again. It seems to be closely related to the previous conspiracy."

Zhu Di's face darkened, and he looked like a huge dark cloud suddenly fell from the sky. His face was so dark that ink could drip out. He shouted angrily, "Lead the way!" The sound was like thunder, shaking the air around him.

Yueying, Xueqi, and the other brides and I looked at each other, and the moment our eyes met, it seemed as if countless little sparks were crackling around!

We looked at each other, gritted our teeth, and resolutely decided to follow and see what was going on. We acted like a group of fearless death squads.

We ran with the guards, so fast that smoke came out of our feet, as if everyone had Hot Wheels under their feet. We ran at lightning speed, not daring to stop for a moment, and felt like our hearts were about to jump out of our throats.

After much effort, we finally arrived at a remote and desolate palace that seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world. The palace was shabby, as if it had been forgotten by God for hundreds of years. The surrounding weeds were overgrown and almost as tall as a person. If you didn't know, you would think it was the cave of some monster!

As soon as we stepped into the palace, a chilly air hit us, making our backs cold, as if countless pairs of cold hands were reaching out from behind, trying to grab our souls. This chill instantly penetrated our bones, causing goose bumps to appear on every inch of our skin.

I saw some strange and ghostly symbols suddenly appearing on the walls of the palace. The twisted lines seemed to be silently telling some terrible curse. These symbols flashed with strange light, sometimes red like blood, sometimes green like poisonous fog, changing constantly and dazzling people. They seemed to have their own life, squirming and twisting on the wall, as if they wanted to break free and pounce on us.

There was some unknown liquid on the ground, emitting a pungent, disgusting smell, as if it was poison flowing from the depths of hell. The liquid was as thick as glue, and from time to time strange bubbles popped out, and each burst of the bubble emitted a stronger stench. For a moment, I seemed to see painful and distorted faces emerging from the bubbles, with their mouths wide open, as if they were asking us for help, or as if they were issuing vicious curses.

Suddenly, a gloomy wind blew from the depths of the palace, mixed with faint cries and laughter. The cries were mournful and miserable, as if countless wronged souls were crying out their tragic experiences; the laughter was sharp and piercing, as if the devil was triumphantly laughing at our ignorance and weakness. The wind was getting louder and louder, as if it was going to drag us into an endless vortex of terror.

At this moment, there was a "crunching" sound from above our heads. Looking up, we saw countless skeletal hands slowly extending from the ceiling. They kept waving, their nails as sharp as knives, as if they wanted to tear us apart. In the shadows in the corners, pairs of blood-red eyes loomed, flashing greed and evil.

A low incantation sounded from somewhere, and the sound seemed to come from the ancient darkness, full of evil power. As the incantation sounded, the palace began to shake violently, the symbols on the wall flashed more crazily, and the unknown liquid on the ground also boiled, emitting billowing smoke.

We fled in panic, but found that every exit was swallowed by darkness. Suddenly, a huge black shadow emerged from the smoke. It was so big that we couldn't see its face, but it exuded a suffocating sense of oppression. It walked towards us slowly, and every step made the ground tremble, as if death was approaching.

"What the hell is this place!" Someone screamed, but the sound was instantly drowned out by the terrifying atmosphere. Our heartbeats accelerated rapidly, as if they were about to jump out of our throats. In this endless fear, I seemed to see the end of my life. Are we going to be trapped in this absurd and terrifying palace forever and become victims of evil forces?

Just when we were in despair, a mysterious light shone from afar. The light was warm and gentle, like the dawn of hope. But the appearance of this light made everything even more confusing...

Niu Lili frowned, her brows twisted like twisted knots, and said, "What kind of evil and perverse magic is this? Could it be the mysterious and terrifying Miaojiang witchcraft?"

She approached the symbols cautiously, her eyes wide as bells, and observed them carefully with full concentration, even her breathing became extremely light, trying to find even the slightest clue from the strange patterns.

Xiaoling tightly grasped the whips in her hands, the joints of her hands turning white from the force she exerted. She said, "It looks like they are not good people. They must be the cruel and insane people of the Jianghu cult."

Her eyes were full of vigilance, as if facing a great enemy. Her body was as tense as a fully drawn bowstring. She glanced around vigilantly, as if a man-eating monster would jump out of the darkness at any time.

The concubine's sister was worried, and the worry on her face seemed to be able to squeeze out water. She said: "Brother Xiangtian, this is probably another sinister and vicious conspiracy. Is it aimed at the throne?"

Her eyes were filled with anxiety, as if she had already seen the throne crumbling and the country falling into bloodshed.

Gege held the spear tightly, and the spear in her hand was like a magic needle that stabilized the sea. She said majestically: "No matter what, we must be extremely careful and cautious. We must pull the mastermind out of the darkness and make sure he has nowhere to hide."

Her posture was as straight as a pine tree, full of fighting determination to fight to the death, as if she was willing to perish together with this dark conspiracy.

Chunhua's face was calm, and she said calmly: "Everyone, don't panic. Don't fall into the enemy's carefully designed evil plan."

The bow in her hand was half-drawn, ready to shoot. Her eyes were as sharp as a hawk, ready to deal a fatal blow to the enemy at any time.

Lu Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes and observed the surroundings. His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the darkness. He said thoughtfully, "There must be something unusual and unimaginable here. Maybe it's the evil magic from the Western Regions!"

He waved the folding fan in his hand, seemingly leisurely, but in fact his brain was working rapidly, racking his brains to think about the mystery hidden in it...
