Immortal, save me!

Xiao Jue gave the order, and everyone dared not to obey. They saw the sharp weapon piercing the demon's body and cutting open the fur with force. Due to lack of skill, the fur was damaged in many places. The dirty and bloody fur was thrown together, and it was very difficult to see. Build up a hill quickly.

The screams were endless in the dungeon, and the smell of blood was pungent in the air. The torturers would interrogate the monsters every step they took, but without exception, no monster responded.

Large cauldrons were moved to the open space of the dungeon. The cauldrons were filled with water and a fire was lit underneath. Thick smoke rolled up and rose. The cold dungeon slowly heated up, being smoky and roasted by the heat. It's unbearable.

After another round of interrogation, the guards threw the dying monsters into the cauldron. The scalding water poured over the scarred bodies, and they were instantly scalded into cooked meat. The air was filled with waves of unpleasant smell.

Xiao Jue frowned and stood up: "I'll report any news as soon as possible."

After saying that, Xiao Jue turned around and left the dungeon, and the respectful voice of the guard came from behind.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Facing the gentle evening breeze, Xiao Jue narrowed his eyes, glanced in the direction of Leng Palace, paused for a moment and went to the imperial study room.

There was a mountain of memorials in front of him, but he had no intention of reviewing them. He frowned and felt irritable. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore. He flipped all the memorials on the desk to the ground and stared at the eunuch in charge who came in after hearing the noise.

"Have those guys finished making the elixir of life?"

Zhang Ping, the eunuch in charge, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Not yet, Your Majesty."

Xiao Jue was furious: "A bunch of mediocre people! It's been almost ten years and they haven't finished it yet! Go and urge them! Tell them that they won't be able to refine it in the last year!"

Zhang Ping's body was trembling and he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly left the imperial study.

Xiao Jue sat back on the dragon chair heavily, with veins on his head pulsing and a splitting headache. Now that he was thirty-five years old, he did not have so much patience to wait. The life span of mortals is short, and the lifespan of Xiao's ancestors was only over fifty at most. Years old, he needs to find something that can make him immortal as soon as possible.

In the back room of the imperial study, there was a secret room, which he accidentally discovered. It contained many things belonging to the past emperors of Daqi, and it was like the secret base of past emperors.

He twisted the mechanism and stepped into the dim secret room. The secret room was not big. In addition to the handwritten notes of past emperors, there were some personal items collected by them.

He leaned against the wall, took a long breath, and looked down at the late emperor's letters.

There are some things that he has to care about, such as the eight hundred years of history of Daqi. There is no record of what the world was like before Daqi was established.

He had never thought about doubting it before, and only thought that all this was a matter of course, but the Prime Minister's words were like a blow to the head, waking him up. If he wants Daqi to rule the world forever, it is necessary to trace the source. Only by taking precautions can we prevent accidents from happening. Be fully prepared!

And the book the Prime Minister gave him confirmed his suspicion.

Daqi is not the only one in this world, there are other species coexisting in places they don't know about, and humans are just one of them.

What is not recorded in the history books of Daqi does not mean that it does not exist. Perhaps the world before the establishment of Daqi is the real appearance of this world.

What was the reason for those things to be erased from the historical records of Daqi?

Xiao Jue was deep in thought. After an unknown amount of time, the guard's voice sounded outside.

Xiao Jue walked out of the secret room, sat on the dragon chair and said, "Come in."

After the guard came in, he informed Xiao Jue of the results of the interrogation. It turned out that not long after he left, a demon finally couldn't stand the torture and was willing to confess everything he knew.

"Little, little one just followed General Hu to the Yu Kingdom. He was only responsible for following orders. General Hu ordered us..."

According to the demon's confession, Hu Sheng and Liu Qing came to Daqi under the orders of the demon king. They did not know the specific tasks. They followed Hu Sheng's orders in everything. After Hu Sheng came to Daqi, they first They followed orders to inquire about Daqi's situation, arrest young women and return them to the Yu Kingdom, and control the people of Daqi to obey their orders and do things for them.

But Daqi was too big, and what they did was not very effective. Therefore, Hu Sheng decided to go deep into the power center of Daqi and get close to the ruler of Daqi. He then appeared in Daqi openly on the grounds that an envoy from Yu State was visiting, thus getting close to Xiao. Jue.

After Hu Sheng entered the palace, in order to complete the task, he persuaded Xiao Jue to open trade between the two countries and open the way for the monsters of the Yu State to enter Daqi. After that, the Yu State openly abducted or captured young women of Daqi to give birth to children for them to confuse the Daqi bloodline. .

Those children born with characteristics of both human and demon races do not belong to either side and cannot practice.

Most of those children were secretly sent to Yu State shortly after they were born, and they didn't know what they were used for.

After Hu Sheng became the queen, they were ordered to disperse throughout Daqi. Their mission was to eliminate traces of Yu State's work in Daqi and to cover up the whereabouts of Yu State people so as not to arouse the suspicion of Daqi people.

After Hu Sheng and the National Preceptor formed an alliance, some of them were sent to capture a man who was said to be immortal. They accidentally learned that the man was the same man who had ruined their plan, and Hu Sheng guessed that the man was from Li Guo.

The Demon King of Yu State died unexpectedly not long ago, and Liu Qing also returned to Yu State. They knew nothing about the current situation of Yu State.

After hearing this, Xiao Jue pondered for a moment and asked, "What's going on with Liu Qing?"

In his memory, Hu Sheng had always been the only one moving under his nose, but Liu Qing had no memory of him.

The guard said: "Back to Your Majesty, according to what the demon said, Liu Qing has been acting secretly and has been hiding in the palace for quite some time."

After hearing this, Xiao Jue clenched his hands, feeling extremely angry. He uncontrollably punched the armrest of the dragon chair. There were deep marks on the back of his bony hands, which shook unnaturally.

hateful!

It turns out that he was the one who led the wolf into the house all along!

Fortunately, Hu Sheng has been relegated to the cold palace and Liu Qing has left.

He closed his eyes and said with a fierce look: "Go to the Palace of Eternal Life to receive the Appearance Pill, and pass on my oral instructions, ordering General Shao and General Chang to lead 600,000 soldiers and divide them into seven groups to go to the seven major states of Daqi to capture the remnants of the Yu Kingdom, Daqi Zi. Anyone who protects the people will be arrested and imprisoned!"

He will never tolerate the existence of heretics under his rule. If the people of Daqi have different ideas, then die!

The guards took the order and went out. The imperial study became quiet for a while, but Zhang Ping rushed back at this time. He passed by the guards and heard Xiao Jue's order.

Daqi's total strength was around one million, and sending out most of them at once was not conducive to Daqi's safety.

He said cautiously: "Your Majesty, there are not many people in the Yu Kingdom. Wouldn't it be too much to send 600,000 soldiers to arrest..."

"many?"

Xiao Jue sneered: "Who are those guys from Yu State?! They are demons! They know magic, can you?!"

Zhang Ping knelt down in panic and said tremblingly: "No, it won't..."

"Humph!"

Xiao Jue raised his hand and pressed his temples hard, frowning.

He thought about the situation of the Yu State. Once the demon king died, the Yu State would definitely be in civil strife. Liu Qing might be going back now with the purpose of usurping the throne. If the Yu State was controlled by Liu Qing, then it would not be appropriate for him to send troops to attack the Yu State.

If the Yu Kingdom falls into the hands of other big demons, it is also not appropriate to send troops. We can only wait and see before making a decision.

After a moment, he said: "The Demon King is dead. Send someone in disguise to go to Yu State to inquire about the situation. If the situation in Yu State is chaotic, come back and report immediately!"

Zhang Ping said quickly: "Yes, Your Majesty."

After finishing the instructions for the Yu State, he had enough time to think about another country, the Li State.

He had always known that there were only two small countries around Daqi, one was the State of Yu and the other was the State of Li. However, Daqi was not familiar with these two countries and had never been able to find a way to conquer them.

The Yu State was so powerful that Daqi could not conquer it, while the Li State had always been mysterious. His ancestors had tried to attack the Li State, but they could not get through when they reached a valley, so the attack on the Li State was abandoned.

Li country, Li country.

Xiao Jue fell into deep thought. If the immortal man Hu Sheng mentioned really came from the State of Li, it means that the State of Li must have a secret that can make people immortal!

Regardless of whether what Hu Sheng said is true or false, he would rather kill him by mistake than let him go. He wants to find that person and get the secret of immortality. For this, he will do it at any cost!

If it is the best, but if it fails, then it is imperative to attack Li State!

Xiao Jue's eyebrows were cold, no matter which one he wins, Yu State or Li State, he will be the second accomplished emperor of Daqi besides the founding emperor!

Linzhou.

Luo Jin walked and stopped along the way. On the way, Luo Jin not only observed Da Qi's situation, but also took the opportunity to practice. No matter how bad the enemy's situation was, he could not slack off at all. Not only that, he also had to be fully prepared. .

In a deserted mountain forest, sand and rocks were flying, and the vegetation was broken.

Luo Jin geared up and rushed towards Mo Yin like an arrow, very fast.

Mo Yin's eyes were covered with black cloth, and he stood quietly in the forest, feeling the direction of Luo Jin's attack.

The wind blew from left to right, confusing his senses. When he avoided a certain direction, an attack came from the other side. Mo Yin looked calm and judged Luo Jin's next direction.

Suddenly, a strong wind hit him directly in front of the door. Mo Yin took a step back and raised his hand to block Luo Jin's fist from the right.

Luo Jin's breathing was turbulent for a moment, and he quickly adjusted. Mou tried his best to touch Mo Yin, but failed every time, which made him realize the gap between himself and Mo Yin.

Although they are far inferior in terms of strength, to achieve their goals, it takes more than just force.

Luo Jin found the right moment and rushed forward again. There was no doubt that this time he still missed, but he did not retract his strength and rushed forward, shouting at the same time.

"Ahh-immortal, help!"

Mo Yin's heart tightened, and without thinking much, he immediately headed in the direction of Luo Jin.

"Ajin?!"

He had just taken off the cloth from his eyes, and the next moment he was thrown to the ground by someone who was tricking him.

Luo Jin said with a playful smile: "I caught you, Immortal."

Mo Yin looked slightly startled and looked straight at Luo Jin. Seeing that he was fine, he relaxed.

He pursed his lips slightly, picked someone up and said, "Come again."

Seeing his serious expression, Luo Jin put away her playful smile and said, "Okay, come on!"

As if to punish Luo Jin, Mo Yin took the initiative to attack him this time, but his strength did not restrain, and he soon ended up with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

"Ouch, it hurts so much. If I don't hit you, I won't hit you. The immortal is just pressing me down and hitting me. I have no power to fight back!"

Luo Jin lay down on the ground shamelessly, stretched out her hand toward Mo Yin and said, "Immortal, it hurts~ I need to hug him!"

Seeing this, Mo Yin knelt down and put his hand on the bruise on his face. Listening to someone's scream, he said with a sullen face: "Don't lie to me next time."

Luo Jin nodded with tears in her eyes: "Okay, I know I was wrong, and I won't lie to the immortal anymore! Immortal, please be gentler~"

Mo Yin: "No matter what the reason is, you can't lie to me."

Luo Jin nodded repeatedly, supported Mo Yin's arm and straightened up, saying: "Okay, okay, I remember, you can't deceive the immortal for any reason!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand to make an oath, and at the same time raised his eyes to secretly observe Mo Yin. Seeing his gentle expression, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then stretched his face forward, rubbed it against Mo Yin's face, and tried to please him. mean.

Seeing this, Mo Yin's expression softened, and he gathered spiritual power in his palms to eliminate the bruises on Luo Jin's face.

Luo Jin's eyes were half-closed comfortably, and she looked at Mo Yin for a moment, with a faint smile on her lips, like a large animal that had been tamed and comforted by its owner.

Mo Yin rubbed Luo Jin's head and stood up. Before he could speak, Luo Jin took his hand.

He lowered his head and looked over.

Luo Jin said pitifully: "Immortal, my body hurts too~"

Mo Yin asked in confusion: "Where?"

Luo Jin smiled evilly and said, "My whole body hurts. Do you want the immortal to touch it too?"

Mo Yin: "..."

He pinched Luo Jin's cheeks and pulled them to both sides, saying, "It's time to rest."

Luo Jin was disappointed: "Oh."

The night is getting deeper, and there is a crescent moon in the sky. The silvery moonlight is spread on the lake not far away, making the waves sparkling and creating a beautiful and quiet scene.

Unfortunately, the light and shadow were torn apart, and a man rolled down the hillside on the other side with a scream, and fell into the water with a "plop". The water splashed everywhere, and ripples appeared layer by layer, and it was no longer calm.

The two of them paused and turned to look at the person struggling in the water.

Luo Jin waved his hand and pulled the person out of the water and threw him on the grassy lawn.

Through the moonlight, it can be seen that this is a young boy. This man is lying on the ground and coughing heartbreakingly. Water is constantly coughing out of his mouth, and his whole body is dripping wet.

The young man raised his head to say thank you, but was shocked by the appearance of the two of them. He stared at them blankly for a while, until Luo Jin coughed unhappily, and then he came back to his senses.

"Thank you two gentlemen for saving me."

Luo Jin snorted: "Who are you and why are you here?"

The young man wrung the water from his clothes, and the wind blew by, making him shiver with coldness.

"My name is Liao Wu. I am a hunter. I accidentally lost my way when I was hunting in the mountains. I tripped over something and fell down."

Liao Wu's face was a little pale, but now he was a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and looked at the direction in which he rolled down. He said regretfully: "The two young masters saved me, but I have nothing to repay. I finally caught the prey." I don’t know where it fell.”

Luo Jin: "No need to repay you."

Liao Wu looked back at him blankly, not knowing how to react.

Luo Jin looked around and said to Liao Wu: "You can go back tomorrow morning. As for tonight, you can stay wherever you want, but don't disturb us."

Liao Wu nodded and watched Luo Jin and the others get on the carriage not far away. He carefully moved over and rested next to the horse.

In the carriage, Luo Jin leaned in Mo Yin's arms, stretching lazily.

Mo Yin lowered his eyes and reached out to tuck the messy hair from his face behind his ears.

"If you're tired, just go to sleep."

Luo Jin responded vaguely. His physical strength had been a bit exhausted recently, and he had to regulate his work and rest. Even the things he had always loved were no longer able to do.

Thinking about it, Luo Jin quickly fell asleep.

Mo Yin looked at the sleeping Luo Jin, thoughtfully. He had a feeling that Penglai Immortal Island might not have disappeared, but was just hidden.

Regardless of race, most people pay attention to falling leaves returning to their roots. When they are at home, they are not rootless duckweeds. Although he cannot feel the existence of Penglai Immortal Island, there is a thread connecting him with the world, and that feeling is related to him and the world. The relationship between Luo Jin and Luo Jin is different. It is stable and can give peace of mind.

After Ajin takes revenge, he will go and see again...

A dreamless night.
