The Pheasant Essence is going to be a big monster

Ji Lanye looked at the iron window above his head. The night was clear and bright. The moonlight shining through the iron bars illuminated his torn clothes and swollen face. Gu Tailai sat at the door of the prison, as if he had fallen into a trance.

The lights in the prison were silent, and the guards chatted about current affairs at the door, a short and fat one went out to make rounds, and a tall, thin one sat under the light for a while and then began to doze off every now and then.

Listening to what they talked about just now, the time in this fantasy city coincided with the war between Qin and Chu.

Not long after the sound of closing the door came, Ji Lanye heard Gu Tailai shout: "Master, please come here."

The guarding jailer was sleepy at first, so naturally he didn't want to pay any more attention.

Gu Tailai said, "Master Jun, it's convenient for me. If I'm poor, I'll drink some water." On the hand outstretched from the wooden fence, there were a few pieces of shining silver shatters, shining under the candlelight.

Ji Lanye looked at Gu Tailai coldly, slandering him in his heart as if he could change his color. He was like this for a while, and he was like that for a while. He had no morals. Compared with him, Zhou Zhaoji was a stickler for nothing... Thinking of this, he frowned slightly. He frowned, if Zhou Zhaoji really died, he would feel bad, Ji Lanye was never used to being indebted to others.

He was distracted for a while, when suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder. Gu Tailai gave him a piece of clothing: "Try it on." Ji Lanye looked at the ground, and saw that the jailer had fallen silently, wearing a military uniform It was also picked up by others, and it suddenly dawned on me that Gu Tai came up to make a fuss, fought him like hell, and even bumped into a few patrolling soldiers for this.

Ji Lanye took the clothes and changed, and asked him, "What about you?"

Gu Tailai retrieved his fly whisk and stuck it in his back, hid the dagger, and wrapped the Taoist robe torn by Ji Lanye with a tattered belt and said, "Continue to be a prisoner, and ask the military master to detain me." Get out of prison." It was clear that he wanted to sneak into the army.

Ji Lanye didn't say much, and tied up the jailer. After thinking about it, he didn't feel at ease. Then he slashed the back of his neck with a knife and tapped several acupuncture points. Then he took tokens and other things that symbolized his identity, and locked them up. The prison door, take Gu Tailai out.

There are few people in this prison, and it is under the control of the Xilingbao garrison. Some enemy war criminals and soldiers who have been imprisoned are locked up. Gu Tailai obviously made up his mind before deliberately bumping into people. The two of them went out together, and they also met some people. The guards let Ji Lanye sneak past them, and soon he was released from prison. Gu Tailai stunned another soldier, changed his clothes, and the two became two pawns of the Chu army.

Seeing that he seemed to have a plan in mind, Ji Lanye couldn't help asking him, "Where are you going to do now?"

Gu Tailai stopped and looked at the brightly lit candle not far away: "Look for Xiao Cai, he should be in the army."

Ji Lanye couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and asked him, "I can't even find out where he is, how do you know?"

"When you see a phoenix bird, you know the prosperity of the world. The phoenix bird chooses the master and follows. In this city, those who can have the spirit of an emperor and general should be in the army."

"But Chu State lost this battle." Ji Lanye asked, "If there were phoenix birds living in this city in the past, how could Xiling Fort be captured by the Qin army? How could Chu State move its capital to the east and eventually be destroyed? country?"

"What if the phoenix dies?"

"Dead?" Ji Lanye's face immediately became extremely ugly, "You mean that the death of Xilingbao that day was because Fengniao, who was on the side of the Chu army, died?"

Gu Tailai made a gesture of silence, and the two of them moved aside into the shadow, and after a while, two sergeants walked by, chatting rustlingly.

"Brother Zhang, do you think the man following the general is a demon?" The big soldier said with a loud voice.

"Hush, keep your voice down!" The shorter one looked around, "Aren't you afraid that that monster will gouge out its eyes and eat its heart?"

"It's not that scary." The big man patted his chest, his expression still changed, "I've seen that kid, he looks very delicate, like a bitch!"

The little man lowered his voice and said: "Haven't you heard that he is powerful? Just say that Mr. Zhou who had a feud with our general, on the night of his sudden death, someone said that he had seen that... that Mr. Zhou in the Zhou Mansion." He died terribly, his head was decapitated, his ears and tongue were cut off, and his heart was also gouged out!"

"Scared? So scary!"

"So please keep your voice down!" The little man said warily, "However, we are lucky to have such a big man in the army. As long as we follow General Lin, there will be no mistakes, right?"

Only then did the big man feel relieved, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "That's right, it doesn't matter if he is a monster or something, as long as he is on our side!" The two of them were about to leave when they suddenly appeared from the shadows The two figures were startled, and they were relieved when they saw that they were wearing their own clothes. The big man cursed and passed Ji Lanye, not knowing that Ji Lanye had already touched his waist card.

Ji Lanye said: "It seems that General Lin is the one who summoned Fengniao."

Gu Tailai seemed to be quite puzzled, and said slowly: "General Lin?"

Hearing that there was something in his words, Ji Lanye asked, "What?"

Gu Tailai said: "During the battle between Qin and Chu, Sima Cuo led the Southern Route Army to capture Xilingbao and attack Yingdu. There are two sayings in history. , Sima Cuo ordered the massacre of the whole city, but no matter what kind of statement, there is no mention of a general Lin stationed in Xilingbao, and it is said that after the Qin army captured this place, they withdrew from Xilingbao, and there has never been a military fort here since then. "

Ji Lan said wildly: "If it's the former, the history books would not bother to list Lin who surrendered and opened the city without blood. The list is probably included in "Biography of Treacherous Officials". As for the withdrawal of the fort, maybe the King of Qin has his own plan?"

Gu Tailai only asked him: "If it's really bloodless, what kind of ghost soldiers did you and Zhou Zhaoji encounter in this fort?"

Ji Lanye was also stunned for a moment. What he and Zhou Zhaoji saw before were obviously trapped in this city in the past. Those ghost soldiers were the ghosts who died in this city that day. Lost original consciousness, as if controlled by others.

"Manipulation..." Ji Lanye frowned.

Gu Tailai knew that he understood, and said: "If the massacre of Xilingbao is true, there will naturally be these ghosts. Even if they are not written in this world, they will be recorded by later historians. Now there are dead spirits, but there is no record. It is also true that the Qin army abandoned the fort after occupying Xilingbao. This Xilingbao should be a key point, and it stands to reason that it should be the best place to deploy troops. How can we withdraw troops and build a new city instead of the nearby ones?"

"Could it be that this place has to be abandoned?"

"If this place is unlucky, how can it not be abandoned?"

Ji Lanye's complexion was extremely bad: "You mean..."

"If the phoenix bird became a crime in the past and occupied this city, is it capable of controlling these undead?"

Ji Lanye pondered: "In other words, there is something hidden in Feng Jun's death."

Gu Tailai darkened his face and said, "I can only think so."

Ji Lanye couldn't hold back anymore: "Isn't Xiao Cai very dangerous?"

Gu Tailai asked him: "How much immortal power do you have left?"

Ji Lanye was taken aback. Since he arrived in this city, his celestial power has gradually lost. At the beginning, he was still able to use it. After a fight with Gu Tailai just now, he noticed that it was almost ten times out of ten. He thought that Gu Tailai hadn't noticed it. But it turned out that the other party had already seen it!So I can only honestly say: "There are three points left."

Gu Tailai said: "No accident, the other party is eyeing Xiao Cai at this moment, presumably they want to choose him as a stand-in, unfortunately I haven't found his location yet, but Zhou Zhaoji should know something." He thought, yes Ji Lan said wildly, "Xiao Cai should be in the General's Mansion, but she may be lost in her mind and don't remember anything. Please take my place and protect him temporarily."

Ji Lanye didn't bother to correct his title, and asked, "What about you?"

Gu Tailai smiled sinisterly: "I'll dig out his grave!"

The tone was so cold that Ji Lanye couldn't help shivering when he heard it.

Whenever a feng shui master looks at acupoints, he must investigate the direction of yin and yang.

The "Burying Sutra" says: "There are three auspicious points in acupoints. There are six evils in burials." No matter how the deceased died during his lifetime, if the burial is auspicious, if the burial is large, it can dispel the evil spirit of the deceased's resentment; Then there will be hostility in peace, and good funerals will become evil funerals.

Gu Tailai guessed that hundreds of years ago, there was something strange about Feng Jun's death in this ancient city, and he even believed that he could not be buried in a good place, and even accumulated resentment, entrenched in the city, and controlled a city of dead souls, which could not be dissipated for hundreds of years, so Zhong Shan was very moved. When the miasma is born, even the animals on the mountain are ferocious. However, under the illusion of the city, it is hard to find the other party's grave.

Gu Tailai found a roof, climbed up, and stood on the top of the wall to see the appearance of the ancient city.

In order to prevent the Qin army from attacking, the lights in the city were not completely extinguished at this time. On the contrary, soldiers often patrolled the streets with torches in their hands, and they came and went in an orderly manner.

Gu Tailai inspected the terrain, and took advantage of the situation to pay attention to the defense of the city. This Chu army was well-disciplined, and it was obvious that it was under excellent control at ordinary times. He couldn't help but feel a little more suspicious about the general surnamed Lin.Such a general, why did he not see him when he was alive after this battle, why did he not hear about him when he died, and disappeared as if he had never existed?Could it be that he was killed together with that Feng Jun, or something else happened?

Thinking up to this point, Gu Tailai couldn't help but pause in his heart, wondering what situation Ji Xiaocai is now in the General's Mansion!And where did Zhou Zhaoji go?Gu Tailai secretly kept several ominous places in the city in his heart, jumped down from the roof, speeded up his movements, and searched for them, hoping to break the illusion of the other party a moment earlier, so as not to put Ji Xiaocai in danger.

Before dawn dawned, Ji Xiaocai sat at the table all night.He was originally a monster, even if he didn't sleep for several days, he could support him, but after this night, he felt sleepy.

"No Ji Tailai" Gu Yu rubbed in his hands all night, all he could remember were fragments, sometimes a picture, sometimes a sentence, Gu Tailai changed his appearance in his memory, not only wearing different clothes, And the temperament is also very different.He doesn't always have a kind face, and often even has a cold face, and he never speaks sweetly to him, sending him this and that, but for some reason, it still makes him feel full of joy.This kind of joy is different from facing him as a general. There is no false response, and there is no need to worry about it. Even when you are obviously being scolded, listening to it in a pleasant tone makes people feel warm!

Ji Xiaocai didn't understand what she remembered and felt, but it seemed that none of these had anything to do with Gu Tailai who was a general.

There were a few light footsteps in the courtyard, and Ji Xiaocai carefully stepped to the window to look.Sure enough, it was Gu Tailai outside, he was already in military uniform, and his rotten silver armor was shining brightly, with his hand on his pocket, he walked out cautiously, as if he was avoiding someone, and there was no one else in this courtyard except Ji Xiaocai.

Ji Xiaocai suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in her heart. Although he followed Gu Tailai for more than five years, helped Gu Tailai win the enemy's first rank among thousands of troops, made great achievements, and saved his life several times, Gu Tailai did not agree with him. There is still a gap.

Yes, estrangement!

Gu Tailai is always nice to him on weekdays, but if he finds something novel, delicious and useful, he always brings it back to him, and he is also very important to him when he is marching and fighting, but Ji Xiaocai still knows that Gu Tailai Lai is not as indifferent to him as he is to Gu Tailai.Perhaps because of fear of his power, people are always wary of demons and ghosts by nature, especially Gu Tailai once saw how he summoned fire from heaven and burned an enemy army of dozens of people.

But in fact Ji Xiaocai is not a demon!The phoenix is ​​a divine bird in the sky. Seeing it makes the world prosper. Since ancient times, it should have stood by the emperor's side. Ji Xiaocai chose Gu Tailai. Gu Tailai didn't know about it, and Ji Xiaocai didn't tell him, only saying that she was an emperor. demon.Ji Xiaocai thought, if he told Gu Tailai his real identity, then Gu Tailai would definitely have a different attitude towards him, but he panicked, Gu Tailai treated him differently because of his identity, so, no Dare to tell!

Ji Xiaocai watched Gu Tailai out of the courtyard. He was tall, but somehow he looked a little short because of tiptoeing. He didn't straighten his back until he went out. Ji Xiaocai didn't know that to Gu Tailai, his own existence was already gone. It is oppressive.

He sighed lowly, Gu Tailai asked him last night, how long will he be with him...

Five years?ten years?

Ji Xiaocai rubbed her hot ears, where is that Gu Tailai who said forever?

Ji Xiaocai spent some time in thinking, then put on military uniform, and rode a horse instead of Gu Tai to inspect the defense.He was known to everyone in the city, and the soldiers would salute him respectfully whenever they saw him, but no one could know whether it was respect, fear, or sarcasm underneath the courtesy.

Ji Xiaocai checked the food, grass and water supply, went to the school grounds to watch the target shooting, and finally climbed to the south gate to overlook the surrounding fields.Not far from the city gate is Yuanshui, which looks like a silver streak from a distance, shining in the sunlight.The green fields in the distance are green and the grass is swaying. There is no smell of war at all, but there is a sense of tranquility and peace.The breath of autumn filled the nose, with a slight coolness, but it was quickly evaporated.

In the middle of the hour, there seemed to be a subtle change in the air. Ji Xiaocai caught it keenly, ordered everyone to be in place, pulled up the city gates, scattered barbed caltrops and blocked carbine guns on the main roads entering the city. More crossbows, catapults, flints, etc. were placed, and the gates were blocked with knife carts (Note 1), and a team of dozens of people was ordered in the city to prepare lane carts (Note 2) for emergencies.

After a while, the ground trembled slightly, and the scouts reported back that the Qin army from the southwest attacked, connecting the sky and the earth, roughly tens of thousands of horses!The Qin Army is still dark, and from a distance, it looks like black water sweeping from the sky, horseshoes stepping on the field, Jin Ge shaking, Ji Xiaocai looked at the black dragon flag from a distance, for the first time, she felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart a feeling of.

Black belongs to water, Qin regards himself as the virtue of water, and also holds the power of black dragon, water overcomes fire, dragon overwhelms phoenix, Ji Xiaocai's palms are sweating, her heart is like a hanging bell, anxiously waiting for the enemy to approach.

The Qin army scattered as they approached. There are four gates in Xilingbao, east, west, north, south, and the north gate leads to Yingdu. The deployment of troops is extremely heavy. Entering and exiting from the waterway is also very afraid of cutting off the water inlet channel. Ximen deployed the least troops and left many agencies.Ji Xiaocai personally sits at the south gate, the enemy troops gathered under the gate, a general came out to call for the city, Ji Xiaocai waved without waiting for him to speak: "Throw things!"

For a moment, the catapults on the city tower moved in response to the sound, and countless heavy objects rushed straight at the Qin army.The Qin army was well-trained, and the team changed rapidly. The shieldmen stacked up iron barriers to block the Chu army's offensive. However, what was unexpected was that the Chu army threw not heavy objects such as boulders, but cowhide bags one by one. Throwing it on the shield would shatter Crack open and flow out of liquid.The Qin army was unknown at the beginning, and soon someone shouted: "Lamp oil, it's lamp oil!"

Before the words were finished, the Chu army was like a rain of arrows falling from the sky. There were flints on the arrowheads, which were soaked in oil, and rubbed against the shield of the Qin army. In an instant, countless fireballs were ignited, the formation collapsed, and the sound of howling ghosts and wolves could be heard endlessly.Many potholes were dug around Xilingbao, and iron terriers, sharp wooden toons and other objects were scattered underneath. Some of the Qin army burned their bodies, fled in a hurry, or trampled to death, and some fell into the pits and were stabbed in the chest to death. Underneath, there is Shura Hell.The soldiers guarding Yangma City (Note 3) under the city wall also took the opportunity to shoot arrows at the Qin army to stop the Qin people who intended to cross the moat.

Between heaven and earth, horses bark and eagles neigh, and howls shake the mountains.

Looking downstairs, Ji Xiaocai couldn't help closing her eyes slightly.As long as he stays with Gu Tailai for a day, he will have to see such a scene for a day.The number of days was determined early, the King of Qin would be the emperor, and he would rule the world. Ji Xiaocai's helping Chu State was going against the sky, and it was extremely difficult.Since five years ago, he has accumulated countless injustices. The enemy fought against the enemy, and his own people fought against his own people. Innumerable people died at his hands, just for the sake of Gu Tailai!

Ji Xiaocai saw that the Qin army was retreating in the city, and expected that the opponent would suspend the offensive after receiving a head-on blow, so she went to Mamian (Note 4) to check the enemy's situation.Suddenly hearing a cry of exclamation from a distance, Ji Xiaocai looked around and saw a water dragon jumping up above Yuanshui and coming straight towards the Qin army.The water dragon was crystal clear and clean, hovering in the air for a week, opening its mouth and roaring, the sound of the dragon's chant pierced through the ears, the Chu soldiers around Ji Xiaocai covered their ears in pain, even Ji Xiaocai couldn't help but feel slightly shaken.

The water dragon sprayed water in the air, instantly extinguishing all the flames in the Qin army, circled low for a circle, and then swept towards the Chu army formation, knocking down several people in one go.The tail swept across and pierced a corner of the battlement. Several Chu soldiers fell down wailing, and some Chu soldiers bit it in their mouths and threw it to the ground.

Ji Xiaocai knew that there must be capable people and strangers in this Qin army, so she ignored her identity and went up to the battlements in three steps at a time.He was dressed in red armor, standing on the top of the city, which was particularly conspicuous. When the Qin army saw him, they all exclaimed: "The red ghost, the red ghost of the Chu army!"

Immediately, countless crossbowmen lined up on the ground and shot arrows at Ji Xiaocai.Naturally, Ji Xiaocai didn't pay attention to what he could do. He swiped in front of him, cast a barrier, and blocked all the arrows in front of him. Countless feathered arrows fell one after another, fell into the wall of sheep and horses, and were picked up by soldiers of the Chu army. to use.Ji Xiaocai stretched out her hand into the air, imagining his red phoenix sword, jumped up, and stabbed it straight at the forehead of the water dragon, but the dragon rider was very cunning, he led Ji Xiaocai outward, and when he got close to him, he did not Suddenly it shattered into a splash of water and disappeared.Ji Xiaocai had already landed outside the city, and the soil under his feet was bleeding. Qin Jun saw that he was alone, but he didn't dare to commit a crime. Even Chu Jun didn't dare to take a breath, and he didn't have the slightest joy of being dominant.

Ji Xiaocai has slightly revealed the true nature of the monster, her eyes are golden and red, scanning the Qin army's formation.But seeing the enemy's formation suddenly changed, the crowd receded like a tide, and a man stood out in the middle, an elderly Taoist priest, dressed in rags but calm and relaxed, Ji Xiaocai was slightly frightened, knowing that today would not be a good day .The Taoist came forward, waved his whisk and said, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Ji Xiaocai tried her best to answer: "I help the Chu army defend the city, so naturally I am in Xiling City."

The Taoist said with a smile: "Your Majesty should know the destiny of heaven, why bother to go against the sky?"

Ji Xiaocai gritted her teeth and said, "Everyone's destiny is so boring, I can help whoever I want!"

The Taoist shook his head: "Trapped by love, you go against the sky, sir, do you know that you will be punished by heaven?"

Ji Xiaocai couldn't help being angry for a while, she held her sword and shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, take your life!" It was convenient for the Taoist to fight.For a moment, sand and rocks flew, dragons soared and phoenixes sang, and the world was controlled by magic power.

Ji Lanye hid in the dark, seeing Ji Xiaocai fighting with others, but he didn't dare to act rashly.This Ji Xiaocai is not the shy and quiet younger brother he is familiar with, he seems to be a different person, not only has his demon power increased, but even his personality seems to be different from before.Ji Lanye's immortal power has lost nine points, so he can barely peek with the eyes of the sky at this moment, and there seems to be another person in Ji Xiaocai's figure, and there is a cloud of black energy around the red figure, and his actions seem to be affected by this other person. Manipulated by one person, involuntarily, like a demon.

Ji Lanye didn't dare to go out rashly, because he was taken aback when he saw the old Taoist priest.The Taoist priest was very old, with white eyebrows and white beard, like a fairy from the world, but his eyes made Ji Lanye feel inexplicably familiar, as if he had known each other.Just as Ji Lanye thought so, he saw the Taoist and Ji Xiaocai were halfway through the fight, and suddenly glanced at him distractedly.

Ji Lanye couldn't help being startled, he used the only remaining celestial power to hide his whereabouts, how did he find out again?

Ji Xiaocai saw that the opponent seemed to be distracted, shouted loudly, and slashed the Chifeng Sword towards the Taoist's neck. He had accumulated enough demon power, and was about to decapitate the opponent, when suddenly he heard a sound of wind, and the body of his sword Touching something, split it in two, Ji Xiaocai was full of thought, but saw a white light burst in front of her, a wooden stake was split in half by him, and fell to the ground.

Ji Xiaocai yelled "Not good", and the wind blew past her ears, as if someone had passed by.Just about to chase after her, her heart skipped a beat, as if falling straight down from nine heavens, Ji Xiaocai pricked up her ears, and amidst the sound of thousands of troops and horses fighting, she heard the familiar sound of horseshoes coming from the far north.It was the sound of horseshoes that he was too familiar with, but just by hearing it, he knew that the person on the horse was Gu Tailai who set off for Yingdu early in the morning, and he must have received the battle report at this moment and rushed back to the city.

Ji Xiaocai didn't care about the Taoist priest anymore, she straightened her body, like a phoenix soaring into the sky, and went straight to the north gate.

Gu Tailai stood on his heels, even in the ground, he could still feel the shock caused by the confrontation between the two armies above, but it was somewhat weak to him.

The cellar was still the same as before he left, dusty, moldy and dark, and a few jars had been slightly shifted, which was the proof that Ji Xiaocai had come to find him.

Gu Tailai knew that he found the right one this time!

Before returning to this cellar, Gu Tailai had searched all the fierce places in the city but found nothing.At that time, the fighting was in full swing at the top of the city, and the people in the city were hiding in their homes and did not dare to go out. Gu Tailai walked alone on the empty streets, just like when he was forced to separate from Ji Xiaocai at first, he suddenly realized that he was wrong.

He once speculated that the phoenix bird died inexplicably during his lifetime, and was buried in an unsuitable place after death, so he became an injustice and occupied the city. To this day, no one even remembers the existence of such an ancient city.

But the phoenix died with a strange injustice, and it will definitely not be kind after death. It is only now that it has caused chaos. It can only be expected that an expert cast a spell to trap its dead soul in the city, and could not break free. Then the King of Qin ordered him to withdraw from the fort. Building, and completely submerging Xilingbao in the dust of history, is the result today.Therefore, Fengniao is not buried in a fierce place, but in a place where energy accumulates and magic power is most easily displayed.

Although Gu Tailai has lost his magic power, he can still guess where it is - only the place where vitality gathers and the cycle of yin and yang can drag people from hundreds of years into the fantasy city hundreds of years ago.Intentionally or not, from the very beginning, Zhou Zhaoji left a message!And right now, that's exactly what it looks like.

In the illusion, the whole city has changed, and the only thing that has maintained its appearance hundreds of years later is this small cellar.

Gu Tailai looked around again, his vision was different at this time, and he felt something strange.Those jars are scattered on the side, nothing at first glance, but after a closer look, they seem to be distributed according to the Big Dipper.Gu Tailai squatted down to look again, and saw some small dust particles scattered beside each jar, when he twisted it up for a closer look, he found that it was not ordinary dust, but grains.What I don't know is that it fell from the grains piled up next to it. At this moment, it seems that it was used when someone casts a spell. Matching the jar with it forms a formation.

As the saying goes, "The Southern Dipper is the master of life, the Big Dipper is the master of death", Gu Tailai followed those jars, touched the corner, estimated the location, and pulled out the dagger at his waist to dig all the way.After digging to an unknown depth, I finally touched a hard object. When I lifted it up, I saw it was a small urn with a charm sealed on the mouth and a seal of cinnabar. It had been eroded for a long time, and a crack was exposed. I thought about the resentful soul, maybe This is how to escape.

Looking at the urn, Gu Tailai felt an inexplicable strange feeling in his heart, whether it was sadness or joy, fear or panic, he was rarely moved by external objects, but now he was in a trance, with goose bumps on his arms.Reluctantly calming down, he unsealed the small urn, cut the seal with a dagger across the mouth of the urn, and easily cut it, he waited, and nothing bad happened, then turned the urn upside down and poured out the contents , there were two cloth bags in total, the small bag contained something similar to the ashes that Zhou Zhaoji had given him, Gu Tailai put it in his arms, and then went to open the big bag to see, the gray-brown surface was really exposed inside. When it was fully unfolded, Gu Tailai couldn't help being stunned. It was an ancient painting not long ago. The color has faded, but it can still be clearly seen that the painting is a nine-heaven phoenix bird with graceful feathers and a beautiful shape. Fluid, almost ready to come out, but there always seems to be something wrong.Gu Tailai took it to a place with light to look at it, but saw that there was just a piece missing in the picture of the phoenix bird, and the location was one of the eyes of the phoenix bird.

This is a blind phoenix!

Gu Tailai thought of the fingernail-sized fragment he had obtained, and a thin layer of sweat suddenly formed on his forehead.

Ji Xiaocai's scarlet figure flew across the air quickly, her toes pointing to the roof, and she headed for the north gate.Going hand in hand with him is the Taoist priest of the Qin army!Ji Xiaocai was fast enough, but the Taoist priest was still entangled with maggots like bones.The two fought forward in the air, showing no mercy to each other. Their magical power collided and intertwined in the air, making clang noises, knocking down roof tiles and collapsing beams, and there was a lot of crying. But there is no time to take care of it!

He was full of monster power, like a demon, his pocket was broken, his hair tie was broken, and his red hair was burning in the air.

He only knew that Gu Tailai was in danger, and he had to go to rescue him!Gods block and kill gods, Buddhas block and kill Buddhas!

It's not a long way, how difficult it is to walk, turn out the north gate, and see the "black water" pressing the gate in the distance, Ji Xiaocai doesn't hesitate any longer, Qin Jun's life is like the danger of Gu Tailai!He slashed down with his demon sword, burning the sky with blazing fire, and killed a Shura Mingdao among the thousands of troops. Those who were bathed in the fire of the Qin army were instantly wiped out, with no flesh left. Like the ebb tide, people stepped on each other and retreated furiously backward.

The sparks are still burning, rising in the wind, rushing from left to right, devouring lives, and greedy.Inside and outside the city, it suddenly became a sea of ​​flames.

The white-browed Taoist yelled angrily: "You are no longer Feng Jun, you are a demon!"

Ji Xiaocai swung her sword and slashed: "I can't let you teach me!"

The Taoist priest took one blow from him and fell down from the clouds, with the spells flying in his hands, and begged the three Qings and the four emperors, the sky was full of storms, lightning and thunder, like thousands of heavenly soldiers stretching their teeth and claws from behind the black crow clouds, trying to capture people in the lower realm .Ji Xiaocai sneered, bright flames rose all over her body, her red armor turned into a vermilion robe, with the fire and phoenix sword in her hand, the arrogance soared to the sky, the heavenly soldiers and generals were afraid, no one dared to approach!

He went all the way to find where Gu Tailai was in the chaos.When people see him approaching, they all avoid them, or if they are unable to escape, they touch the evil spirit around him, and they turn into a puddle of corpse water without a sound, and evaporate completely, leaving nothing for a moment.Countless soldiers of the Qin army, like harvesting wheat after autumn, fell one after another, and finally revealed the figure of Gu Tailai.

He held the sword in his hand, as if he was fighting with people, but at this moment, there was no one behind him.

Seeing that he was still alive, Ji Xiaocai couldn't help but feel certain, filled with joy, and restrained the scorching evil spirit around her body a little.Seeing him approaching, the man had a complicated expression on his face.Ji Xiaocai didn't notice at all, she just said: "General, Xiaocai is here to save you, don't be afraid!"

The man replied: "Xiao Cai, come here." His face was warm, with a smile on his lips, as if in spring.

Ji Xiaocai was in a trance, and the countless figures in front of her and behind her turned into phantoms, like waves chasing, retreating sharply, not knowing where to go.There was a sudden silence between heaven and earth, the sunlight turned into silver moonlight, an inconceivably large silver plate, quiet and close, as if it was about to be smashed down.

"Little Cai, come."

"General..."

"Ji Xiaocai!" shouted loudly in the air, like thunder.Ji Xiaocai looked back, and saw a tall man in a tattered Taoist robe standing panting on the side of the ruins, shouting at him, "Come back!"

Ji Xiaocai turned her head to look again, there were two faces beside and in front of her, exactly the same.

The man in military uniform looked gloomy, and said in a deep voice: "Where is the evildoer, how dare you pretend to be the general!"

Gu Tai took out a cloth bag from his arms and held it up in the air: "You don't have to pretend anymore...you..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly groaned, knelt down on one knee, his face was painful, and he couldn't speak anymore.

Ji Xiaocai frowned, and looked directly at the "person" in front of her.

His armor is torn, his body is rotten, the sword in his hand has long been corroded, its silver light has faded, from the beginning to the end of the sword, it is shrouded in black energy, it is this sword, silently, just gave Gu Tailai a severe blow.

"Little Cai, come here!" The man laughed again.

"Xiao Cai!" A clean air came out from the side, completely blocking the two people.He frowned, waved his hand, and the black air was like a long whip, slamming on Ji Lanye's body, but when he heard a "boom", dust and sand splashed, Ji Lanye rolled several times and fell to the ground without making a sound.

"Xiao Cai..." He stretched out his hand to Ji Xiaocai, "Don't you like me? Why don't you come by my side?"

Ji Xiaocai looked around, the grass was overgrown and desolate.Gu Tailai knelt aside, trying to struggle, but he was powerless.

"Xiao Cai?"

"En." Ji Xiaocai stepped forward without hesitation.

"Little Cai, come over to my side and get closer."

Ji Xiaocai walked in front of him and almost touched his nose, but the other side was icy cold.

The man said with a satisfied smile, "Good boy." He pointed at Ji Xiaocai's chest with his finger bony bones, "Now, I want your heart."
