Chapter 68 Butterfly scales

Ye Xueyuan took Liu Ting's life with his own hands, but it seemed that it was not enough. After pulling out the point of the gun, he stabbed again, pulled out and stabbed again, and repeated again and again, regardless of the sticky blood stains all over his face and body. , Just holding the gun barrel with both hands, stabbing into Liu Ting's body one by one.

He seems to be venting his years of depression and depression, and he seems to be avenging Liu Ting for the death of Concubine Liu, or he may just want to escape the unbearable reality in front of him, and deliberately indulge in repeated, meaningless brutal behavior among.

Lan Qi's headache became worse and worse, as if there was a piece of charcoal burning between his chest and lungs, and his breathing was burning and painful. He was already extremely uncomfortable, and the strong bloody smell made him feel sick. On Xuehuan.Ye Xuehuan circled his waist, and she didn't want to look at him, she felt sympathetic to Ye Xueyuan, and felt sorry for her own Cang Xing; a sharp spear that had killed countless enemies was used by him to whip the corpse to vent his anger.

Everyone didn't say a word, only heard the tip of the gun "chi" piercing into the flesh, and then "dong" piercing through the body and hitting the green brick below, the two sounds intertwined and circulated continuously in the hall until Liu Ting Ye Xueyuan finally stopped, panting and threw Cang Xing aside.

As soon as he let go of the spear, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength and energy, stumbled back a few steps, and sat down on the ground.

The guards of Xuanfeng had already sent several old imperial physicians out. Yang Lianyu knew that the crisis in the hall was resolved, so he hurriedly dealt with the remaining rebels, and rushed into the hall just at this time; Stuck in his throat, he immediately froze in place.

He looked at Concubine Liu's body and Liu Ting's death, then at Ye Xueyuan who was devastated, then at Ye Xuehuan who looked disgusted, and finally at Yu Tian who was calm and composed. I didn't know who to ask, and regretted not staying outside.

Ye Xueyuan raised his head stiffly, the murderous intent and hatred on his face hadn't receded, but tears kept rolling down his eyes, and two faint water marks rushed out in the scarlet blood.That appearance was obviously ferocious and bloody, but for some reason, there was an indelible sense of despair and desolation.

At this moment, he was like a baby bird that had fallen out of the nest, at a loss as to where he was and where to go, shivering shiveringly in the mess all over the floor, fragile and helpless, decadent and desolate.

Yu Tian stepped forward gracefully, knelt down in front of him, stretched out her arms and hugged him into her arms.Ye Xueyuan suddenly became a little unconscious, his mind was muddled, his body became light, and he couldn't see who was holding him.That breath should be extremely familiar, but it made him resist instinctively, but the seemingly slender arms tightly bound him, making it impossible for him to break free.

"It's okay...it's all over."

Yu Tian pressed his head on his chest, and stroked the messy hair behind his head with one hand, with a gentle and calm expression, as if comforting a child who woke up from a nightmare, "Sleep well, wait until you wake up... ...and nothing happened."

There was a sweet and soft fragrance exuding from her body, Ye Xueyuan was drowsy in her arms, but stubbornly refused to close his eyes, clinging to the last bit of clarity, he asked unwillingly: "You... Who is it?"

Yu Tian sighed quietly, even she herself couldn't tell what kind of meaning was contained in this sigh.There was a slight wry smile on the corner of her mouth, but her voice became softer: "I am your wife... always will be."

"you are mine……"

Ye Xueyuan couldn't resist the tide of drowsiness, she repeated it subconsciously, her body gradually relaxed, and slowly fell into a deep sleep in Yu Tian's arms, even the deep sword lines between her eyebrows seemed to be Stretched out a bit.

Yu Tian lowered his eyes halfway, hugging Ye Xueyuan who was covered in blood in a pool of blood, the scene was surprisingly serene.

This palace change finally came to an end, and all the culprits were killed, but the result made people wonder what to think.Ye Xuehuan shook his head secretly, Lan Qi was still running a fever, and the situation at the other end of the imperial study was also unknown, and the matter had not been completely resolved, so he could no longer stay in the East Palace.

However, at this moment, a sharp and unbridled laugh suddenly came from a corner of the hall: "Hahaha... You Zhongyang... are so fucking interesting!"

Ye Xuehuan finally remembered what he had forgotten.

Xie Zifang leaned crookedly in the corner, out of breath from laughing, "They're all lunatics...you're all fucking lunatics!"

Ye Xuehuan suddenly felt a headache. Liu Ting went crazy and wanted to kill Lan Qi, and then Yu Tian revealed his identity without warning. His attention was always on these two people, and Xie Zifang was completely forgotten. .

This person had been silent before, until now when the dust had settled, he came out and jumped up and down. He thought he was startled, and he just reacted.Ye Xuehuan didn't take him seriously at all, and said sarcastically, "Another crazy one."

Then let Xuanfeng take him down.

"Don't move yet."

It was Yu Tian who stopped him.She held Ye Xueyuan tighter, freed one hand, and beckoned to Yang Lianyu, beckoning him to come over.

Yang Lianyu didn't dare to move. The woman in front of him clearly had the voice and appearance of the princess, but she was completely different from her usual expression and tone. The most important thing was that she was too calm. The corpse was startled. She is such a pampered and pampered noble daughter, even if she is a tiger girl, facing such a corpse riddled with holes and rotten intestines, it is already considered severe if she didn't vomit in the dark and faint on the spot. It's too abnormal to be able to comfort Ye Xueyuan to sleep.

He secretly looked at Ye Xuehuan as if asking for help, and saw him nodding calmly, with a serious expression on his face, but he was also holding one in his hand, which added a touch of untimely tenderness to the originally horrific scene, and changed it instead. Even more abrupt and weird.

Yang Lianyu had no choice but to carefully avoid pools of blood on the ground, and came to Yu Tian, ​​waiting for orders.Yu Tian handed the sleepy Ye Xueyuan into his hands, stood up by himself, and said softly: "Take him out first, there are still some things to be resolved here."

She seemed to know that Yang Lianyu might not obey, so she walked up to Ye Xuehuan and said in a low voice: "Xie Zifang has a Gu, killing it rashly will cause the owner of the Gu to go berserk, and it will be difficult to deal with if there are too many people."

Ye Xuehuan understands that although he is not familiar with the art of Gu poison, he cannot judge whether Yu Tian's words are true or not, but he also knows that she must not want people to see her using Gu art, otherwise she would have been able to take care of Xie Zifang long ago.Immediately asked Yang Lianyu to take Ye Xueyuan out, and at the same time sent out all the Xuanfeng guards.Originally wanted Tong Xuan to take Lan Qi out, but Lan Qi refused, grabbed his lapel and muttered: "I'm not afraid of Gu."

Ye Xuehuan had nothing to do with him, not to mention that he had deed Gu by his side, he was afraid that he would be safer than all of them, so he stopped insisting.

Yang Lianyu was even more surprised when there was such a subtle and tacit relationship between the crown princess and the third prince; but he didn't dare to think about it, let alone ask, he carried Ye Xueyuan on his back, and retreated with Xuan Feng. go out.

In the huge main hall of the East Palace, only four people and a lot of corpses remained.

"You don't know how to raise Gu, and you have already started to bite yourself." Yu Tian said softly, "Why don't you hand it over to me."

Xie Zifang's face was paler than before, but her lips were even redder like blood. She leaned against the wall and couldn't help laughing: "If you were not afraid of revealing your identity, you might have said it three hours earlier."

He was panting a little hard, with a cooing sound in his throat, and sneered at Yu Tian: "A golden feather is the best at playing with people's hearts, and he played himself into it."

He stared at Lan Qi again and sneered: "Returning Yu Wushuang's last wish? The words are better than the songs. I'm used to rich clothes and jade food. Do you still remember what you are?"

"People go to high places, isn't Xie Jianguo the same?" Yu Tian was not annoyed at all, smiling like a spring breeze, "There is a better place to go, who wouldn't want to drill in? But it also depends on whether you have the ability to stand firm Heels, aren't they?"

Her words obviously stepped on Xie Zifang's painful feet, and her already feminine face twisted, making her look even more resentful.

"You just cast a good baby, so what's there to be proud of?" Xie Zifang glared, "If I wasn't born in Xiyue, why would I have come this far?"

"You!" He pointed at Ye Xuehuan, "You were born as a prince, fame and wealth are all within your reach, how do you know the suffering of ordinary people who can't get what they want? If you were born as a Xiyue with me, you might be able to achieve what I am today. ? Why do you say that I am not enough to gain a foothold in the center?!"

"You still say that King Liang is more useful than me? I have killed everyone, so what else can you use him for?"

"And you!" He pointed at Yu Tian again, "The remnants of the previous dynasty, relying on heresy ways to survive, everything you got is nothing but a scam, what right do you have to accuse me of being untenable?!"

He stood there cynically, pointing at the two of them and yelling at them. Those elegant and elegant celebrities before were all gone, and he was so angry that he was like a depressed market rogue, accusing the world of how unfair it is to people of humble background, and showing off How difficult and amazing it is to climb all the way from the bottom by yourself.

He scolded out of breath, but no one paid him any attention.Lan Qi had a high fever, and Ye Xuehuan didn't have the heart to deal with it. If Yu Tian was not afraid of the Gu on his body, he would have shot him to death with an arrow.And although Yu Tian didn't show all the contempt on his face, he didn't bother to argue with him.

On this point, her thoughts are surprisingly similar to Ye Xuehuan's; no matter how downtrodden she is, she is also a legacy of the royal family from the previous dynasty, and she is arrogant from the bottom of her heart, and she will always show the most invincible appearance in front of people.The birds in the field are jealous of the goshawk's ability to soar in the sky, and accuse the goshawk of only relying on the strong wings bestowed by heaven to fly high. Does the goshawk have to apologize for these wings?Want to tell the bird how hard it was when you were a toddler learning to fly?

The reason why the goshawk can fly high is because the flightless young eaglets have all fallen to death at the bottom of the cliff.

However, these sufferings, the little bird will not know.

While listening to his nonsense, Yu Tian approached him calmly, and the fragrance on his body became more and more intense.She stretched out a finger, a drop of blood slowly oozes from the fat-like fingertip, gradually condenses into a shape, and finally becomes a round little ladybug, buzzing and fluttering its wings.

The sound of flapping wings was so thin that it was barely audible, but it was extremely shrill to Xie Zifang's ears, all limbs and bones seemed to resonate with it, under the pale skin, the blue blood veins were clearly visible, and even the rapid rush of blood could be heard Gurgling.His whole body was twitching slightly uncontrollably, and his face was flushed abnormally, as if something was about to burst out of his body, but it was still a little bit off, no matter what. Not coming.

Yu Tian's face showed a strange expression, and three bloody little ladybugs were released from his fingertips one after another. Xie Zifang was so uncomfortable that he shook his head repeatedly and let out a muffled sound, but he still couldn't get the Gu worms out of his body.After a stalemate for a while, Yu Tian finally gave up, his expression was not as calm as before, he gritted his teeth and asked: "This is not a Gu raised by you yourself, who gave it to you?"

Xie Zifang was tormented by her, she was already half dead, she slipped against the wall and fell to the ground, gasping for breath with her mouth wide open like a fish out of water, but still laughing wildly: "Yu's Gu skills are better than yours!" How many people can there be? You should have guessed it!"

"This group of immortals!"

Yu Tian flicked her sleeves in embarrassment, and the four insects seemed to know her anger, and danced around her quickly, drawing four thin red lines in the air.

Seeing her angry, Xie Zifang smiled even more presumptuously: "You have a good idea. You really think you can sit back and relax as your princess? Those old things in your family are pretending to cooperate with the Liu family and treat you as a waste That's all!"

Yu Tian remained silent with a livid face, Xie Zifang turned to Ye Xuehuan again, "You have a good idea too. If the Yu family is willing to surrender to the central government, why hide in Yi Kingdom for so many years? They would rather perish together!"

Ye Xuehuan's face also sank, the current situation is obviously out of Yu Tian's control, and the elders of the Yu clan are also crazier than he expected, the words "both die together" sounded like thunder to his ears , making him extremely uneasy.

Yu Tian picked Xie Zifang up from the ground, pinched his neck and asked, "What kind of Gu did they give you?"

As soon as Xie Zifang raised her eyes, she saw that the two of them were looking solemn, staring at her with fearful and vigilant eyes, and felt joyful in her heart.The blood on his face has faded, exuding a sense of dying decay, but the light in his eyes is blazing, like two flames lit by burning the last life.He was trembling all over, with a tragic and tragic expression, but seemed extremely excited and happy. He raised his head and laughed loudly: "This old thief Liu Ting really thought that I was greedy for profit, so I followed him into the palace... Bah! I am In order to bring these Qingming butterflies into the palace! He is the one I use! Hahaha!"

Upon hearing the words "Qing Ming Die", Yu Tian took a deep breath, let go of his hand as if he had been scalded, and stepped back three steps; Lan Qi also raised his head from Ye Xuehuan's arms, unable to Confidently shouted: "How is it possible?"

"How is it impossible?" Xie Zifang sat down on the ground again, and said with a sneer, "Yu Tian, ​​you really look down on those bad old men of your Yu family. Of course it's not your fault, after all, even Yu Wushuang didn't think of it. The group of old men didn't want to restore the country from the very beginning, they just wanted to destroy the whole country—just like your ancestor Xing, they wanted to sacrifice the world for him!"

His eyes gradually became slack, and he didn't know who he was talking to. His voice was hoarse like a broken bellows, and he spat out vicious curses word by word: "Didn't you all say that I am not worthy of standing in the center? Since I If you don't deserve it...then simply don't exist!"

"You... all go to hell with me!"

Yu Tian was trembling with anger, but lost her mind for a moment.

The word "burial" sounded really ominous, and Ye Xuehuan had some bad premonition in his heart, he lowered his head and asked Lan Qi, "What is it?"

"The Qingming butterfly is a martyrdom." Lan Qi's face was also very ugly, "It is said that Xingzu searched for the method of longevity but could not find it. He did have the idea of ​​wanting the world to be buried for him. Gu; but after all, I can't bear to part with this beautiful mountain and river, and shut myself in the imperial mausoleum before the end of life, this martyrdom should also be destroyed."

Yu Tian said viciously: "This thing has long since ceased to exist in the world, where did those old immortals get it?!"

Xie Zifang laughed loudly: "Xingzu is also a human being. What he can raise, others must not be able to raise it? Aren't you dissatisfied with Yiguo's explanation? This is the final reply sent by the old men of the Yu family!"

Although he already had a rough guess, Ye Xuehuan couldn't help asking: "What exactly is it?"

Yu Tian glanced at him, and said coldly: "Qingming butterfly is invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire, the scales on its wings can rot gold and wood, and it will kill you if you touch it, and no grass will grow anywhere it passes. If there is really something on him, not only you and me If you die here today, this entire imperial city, and even the entire Danlu, will become a dead city overnight."

These words were too heavy, humming and echoing in the empty hall.

Ye Xuehuan was dizzy for a while, and he couldn't help drawing a scene of ruined walls, mountains of corpses and seas of blood in his mind.Danlu City has stood for thousands of years, and even the heavens have favored it. When the dynasty changed, no war has ever spread to this majestic and prosperous city. Thousands of innocent people live and work in peace and contentment here; The unknown pawn who asserted that he was not worthy of a foothold in Danlu and who was already struggling on the verge of death had mastered a terrifying weapon capable of destroying the entire Danlu City.

What's more, if this so-called martyrdom really has the effect in the rumors, wouldn't this indiscriminate disaster spread to the entire central area, and the whole world would be buried with it?

——He absolutely couldn't let such a ridiculous thing happen.

As soon as the killing intent started, Yu Tian noticed it, and shook his head with a bit of self-deprecation: "It's too late to kill him now, I should have dealt with him from the very beginning. But..."

She smiled sweetly, and her two wide sleeves fluttered without any wind, revealing a pair of shiny and smooth hands, "...I don't believe that group of old immortals can raise real martyrdom!"

Her chin was raised, the sweetness of the previous moment was gone, her expression suddenly became arrogant, her eyes were fierce, her fingers spread out, blood dripped down her fingertips, and after falling to the ground, they condensed into insects, but Not the round ladybugs before, but even smaller ants, almost invisible to the naked eye, but they piled up densely and densely, forming a fine red carpet at her feet, vast and mighty. He slammed over quickly, climbed up Xie Zifang's legs, and crawled all over his lower body in a blink of an eye.

"I'd like to see what kind of stuff they raised!"

Xie Zifang let out a shrill scream, and kicked her legs desperately. The blood ants were kicked down a lot by him, but they quickly covered them up one after another; Yu Tian's face also paled a lot, but she still commanded a large number of Gu insects Crawling on him, burrowing into his belly, you must forcibly pull out the Gu worms in his body.

Ye Xuehuan could no longer use words to describe the scene in front of him. He had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he had seen all kinds of bloody and disgusting scenes, but at this moment, he couldn't help but shudder, and goosebumps formed on his back.He secretly feared that Hongling must be a person with a foreign surname, unable to get in touch with the core of the Yu family, and not deep in Gu skills; otherwise, if he had such means back then, he might not be able to win so easily.

Lan Qi wanted to turn around to look, but when he pressed his hand in his arms, he could barely see his tight jaw and tight lip line, but he could hear the sound of "Ka Chi Ka Chi" as if spring silkworms were eating mulberry leaves. " voice, I can roughly imagine what kind of scene it was, my body suddenly felt cold, I closed my eyes, and didn't want to look at it.

The blood ants quickly bit open Xie Zifang's navel, and rushed into his body one by one.He was already exhaling more air than inhaling, leaning against the wall and twitching weakly, unable to make a sound; a large gash was opened in his abdomen, but almost no blood flowed out, and the flesh and internal organs inside were like a A corpse that has been dead for a long time is generally, showing a decayed dark red color.

The ant colony carried out nine slender pupae from his body one after another, and placed them at Yu Tian's feet one by one. The four little ladybugs worked together to grab one of them, and flew to her eyes with flapping wings.A strange faint blue luster flows under the translucent chrysalis shell, and the Gu worms inside have clearly formed and are accumulating strength, waiting to break out of the chrysalis.The ant colony surrounded the other eight chrysalis, their sharp mouthparts frantically biting the seemingly fragile chrysalis shell, but there was only a tooth-piercing sound of metal rubbing, and no bite marks were left.

Yu Tian looked at it for a while, then suddenly called out: "Xiao Lanqi."

Lan Qi turned around when he heard the sound, and saw an unclear smile on her face, and said softly: "You seem to know about Qingmingdie, do you want to taste it together?"

Lan Qi was top-heavy and didn't want to move, so he politely refused: "You are the golden feather, you say yes."

Yu Tian was silent for a while, and suddenly put away all the Gu worms, the blood ants all over the ground spontaneously divided into four strands, and under the guidance of the four little ladybugs, they floated back into her palm like four bright ribbons; Turning into worms, and turning worms into blood, it seems that there is no sense of disobedience at all, and there is even a bit of inexplicable beauty.

"This thing can be said to be martyrdom, or it can't be said." Yu Tian's voice carried some exhaustion that could not be concealed, "The martyrdom uses mountains and rivers as tombs and all people as martyrs. It is the most typical carnivorous gu. There must be a mixture of flesh and blood, and it shouldn't be so clean. I don't know how those old things are raised, but it should be impossible to achieve the effect they expected."

Her words were ambiguous, and Ye Xuehuan was obviously not satisfied, and asked, "How about the details?"

Yu Tian shrugged and said, "Maybe the toxicity is not strong enough, maybe the lifespan is extremely short, maybe it can't reproduce, it's hard to say, I haven't seen it either. It's impossible to massacre the city, but the casualties are definitely inevitable."

She took two steps back and spread her hands, "I tried, but nothing can be done."

Ye Xuehuan frowned, the word "casualty" is too general, and the current situation is still unpredictable and uncontrollable, it is impossible for him to let such a dangerous thing wreak havoc and then fend for itself; but even if he stays where he is, There is no solution to staring out these chrysalis.

The chrysalis had already started to vibrate slightly, and it was about to hatch, even if it wanted to transfer it, it was too late.There was a faint cold sweat on his forehead, and he couldn't help hugging Lan Qi in his arms even tighter. The thick cloak couldn't cover the high body temperature, and it was hot against his body, but unexpectedly let him I feel relieved.

——If it is really irreversible, at least he can die in one place.

On the contrary, Lan Qi was much calmer, wrapping his arms around his waist silently, without saying a word.

"Third Highness, why don't you retreat." Yu Tian had already retreated to the wall at some point, caressing her bright red nails carelessly, "It's not an unsolvable situation, maybe after becoming a butterfly, there will be a solution."

Ye Xuehuan sneered and asked, "Are you not going back?"

"This thing may not be able to get me, the Third Highness can't bear the poison." Yu Tian said nonchalantly, "Besides, I am the Crown Princess, this East Palace should be where I am."

Ye Xuehuan gave her a meaningful look, "You have a deep affection for Brother Dahuang."

Yu Tian also glanced at him with a half-smile, "The Third Highness is also a very loving person, so don't compete with me for this credit."

Ye Xuehuan raised her eyebrows, and heard her say lightly: "If he can deal with these Qingming butterflies, he should thank me once. If he can't...at least he doesn't need to take care of me personally, right? ?”

Ye Xuehuan didn't know what was going on in her heart, and before she could speak, Yu Tian had already laughed again, her eyes were like autumn waves and charming, it seemed that the sadness just now had never appeared on her face, "But if you can't handle it, Well, everyone has to die together, and I'm not at a loss anyway."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a slight cracking sound, a gap was cracked on a chrysalis, and two pairs of wet wings slowly protruded out. The dark dark blue had a raw and cold metallic texture, but On the contrary, it doesn't look like the color that a living thing should have.

The chrysalis split open one after another, and pairs of blue wings gradually stretched and flapped slowly, trying hard to break free from the shackles of the chrysalis.

Lan Qi suddenly pushed Ye Xuehuan lightly, took a feathered arrow from the quiver on his back with one hand, made a shallow cut in the palm of his left hand, smeared blood on the arrowhead, and then handed it back , whispered: "Try it."

Ye Xuehuan was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses.Deed Gu blood can overcome all poisons, it is said that it is still the pinnacle of Xingzu's work, maybe it can really restrain this incomplete Qingming butterfly.

——Lan Qi had already thought about it a long time ago, but seeing that the chrysalis shells were hard, he had to wait for them to break through the chrysalis by themselves.

Ye Xuehuan glanced at the wound on his hand, without being too pretentious, took the arrow, aimed at one of the blue underworld butterflies that were about to flap its wings, and shot at the blue butterfly wings.

He is skilled in archery, and the tip of the arrow landed on the butterfly wing exactly. The seemingly soft butterfly wing was not damaged, and he even slapped it vigorously as if mocking; however, when Lan Qi's blood stained the wing When it went up, the four wings suddenly trembled violently, and the originally coquettish and bright blue color quickly dimmed, and soon turned into a piece of dead gray, and slowly stopped moving.

Yu Tian was dumbfounded, she said lightly, but in fact there was no good plan, and she wanted to fight to die together, but she didn't expect such a turnaround.

"you……"

She was puzzled, but in the end she didn't ask.She showed her Gu skills in front of these two people, and Lan Qi also revealed her secrets in front of her eyes; this was a silent transaction, and she knew it very well in her heart.

The rest of the chrysalis were about to turn into butterflies, Lan Qi didn't hesitate any longer, and staggered forward. The shy bracelet on his wrist had been unfolded into a blade, and the wound on his palm was cut deeper.He was running a fever, his heart was beating violently, and his blood was flowing fast. The pupae were placed together by Yu Tian before, and they were soon soaked in his blood, and their bright colors faded without exception.

The sweet fragrance wafted out, and actually faintly covered the bloody smell in the room.

Yu Tian glanced at him thoughtfully, but said nothing after all.

With a high fever and blood loss, Lan Qi finally couldn't hold on, his mind was blank, and he felt dizzy when he stood up, and fell softly, falling into the darkness.
