Chapter 266: Underworld Phoenix (Part 2)

Song Zheng didn't let everyone disturb Miss Cui San, but Miss Cui San came to disturb him.
At dinner, Miao Yun'er, who was in a good mood, started to cook the delicious spiritual food "Thirteen Cookings" as shown in "The Night Banquet of Heavenly Demons". It used meat and bone marrow of thirteen kinds of high-level beasts, cleverly combined to make each other delicious.
Stimulates vitality, has excellent taste and effect.
As soon as the meal started, someone outside smiled and said, "Follow the scent and you'll find it right. Brother Song, there's a bad visitor coming to the door, would you like to receive it?"
Song Zheng quickly opened the courtyard door, and Cui Minshu stood outside with the guards and the old woman.
The two guards each held a huge wine jar. She smiled again and said: "The evil guest is somewhat conscious and brought some good wine."
Before Song Zheng could say anything, Zhou Kou behind him was already drooling and shouting: "Please come in quickly, let me put down the good wine."
Song Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, trying to clear the air: "We have wanted to kick this guy out for a long time..." Then he asked Cui Minshu and his party inside: "Miss Third, please come in."
Cui Minshu sat down at the table, but the guard and the old woman stood behind them consciously.
She stabbed a piece of animal meat with a silver knife, ate it carefully, and then praised: "I didn't expect that after leaving Qinghe, I could still eat 'Thirteen Cookings'. This little Huangtai Fort,
Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger is unexpected.”
The crowd's joyful voices paused, and Miao Yun'er looked at Cui Minshu in great surprise. Cui Minshu, however, remained calm, took a sip of wine, and stabbed a slightly larger piece of animal meat to eat with interest.
Everyone sincerely admired: It is indeed a Taikoo family.
Zhao Xiao once said before that the Taikoo family holds many ancient secrets, but they do not have an intuitive feeling. This is reflected in the detail of "Thirteen Cookings".
Cui Minshu behaves the same as before, but everyone can no longer be as casual as before. There is a third degree of respect hidden in their behavior and speech.
Cui Minshu ate like a lady, not too much. After four pieces of meat and three glasses of wine, she got up and invited Song Zheng: "Brother Song, can you take me on a night tour of Huangtai Castle?"
"Okay." Song Zheng guessed that she had something to say to him.
Just as Shi Yi was about to stand up, he was secretly kicked by Zhao Xiao. He changed his mind and sat down obediently to continue eating and drinking.
Cui Minshu saw everything and smiled secretly without explaining.
Song Zheng led Cui Minshu out, but Cui Minshu didn't need him to lead the way and walked lightly onto the wall of Huangtai Fort.
The dangerous and majestic city walls that once dominated Shenjin Mountain are now cracked and dilapidated, and even collapsed in many places. In just one year, there has been a huge change.
Cui Minshu climbed up the city wall and said as she walked: "Minshu can imagine how Brother Song patrolled the top of this city back then."
Song Zheng didn't know what she meant: "Oh?"
"It must be... high-spirited and arrogant! This is the most powerful pass in the northern part of the Great Wall of our Hongwu Empire. Standing on this city wall and looking towards the Tiandu Canyon, there must be a man with the courage to stand up to the pass and not be able to open it."
Song Zheng recalled that every time he wanted to climb on the heads of the seven demonic dragons, look at the Shenjin Mountain, and imagine that Emperor Bei Zheng slashed open the Tiandu Canyon with his sword... He did not deny it, but he did not dwell on this topic too much.
say what.
Under the sky fire, all ambitions and lofty sentiments can only be remembered, and those who survive are struggles and mediocrities.
Cui Minshu turned back and looked at him deeply. After a while, she said again: "Brother Song, have you ever thought about controlling the sky fire?"
Song Zheng was stunned: "Me?"
"Yes, it's you!" Cui Minshu said: "You have been controlled by the sky fire for so long, and you have been forced to complete one imperial edict after another. There must be many choices that make you feel helpless, angry, and even humiliating.
Now, if you control the Heavenly Fire, you can have all the pleasures you want!"
Song Zheng frowned, cupped his hands and said, "Miss Third, please explain clearly." Did a golden pie fall from the sky? No, the last time it fell was sky fire!
Cui Minshu smiled and said: "Brother Song, have you ever thought about why our Cui family wants to conquer the sky fire?"
Song Zheng was stunned. He really hadn't thought about this problem seriously. At this time, when Cui Minshu mentioned it, he thought of Shi Yuanhe once said that even if a faint king is in power and all life is in ruins, as long as it does not involve his own interests, the Taikoo family will not
Take action.
So why are they interested in sky fire?
He shook his head slowly and said, "Please give me some advice, Miss." He already had a few vague guesses in his mind, but none of them were certain.
Cui Minshu said: "Sky Fire can control monks, and the monks controlled by it can be called the best dead warriors in the world. And Brother Song also told me before that the secret decree of Sky Fire can reach all places in the Hongwu Celestial Dynasty. I say this, Brother Song
You should understand, right?"
Song Zheng gritted his teeth and asked again: "Why do you need me?"
"Because in addition to Skyfire, among these 'death warriors', we also need a secret controller and an eyeliner. At present, you are the most suitable." Cui Minshu said calmly.
Song Zheng was struggling in his heart. He understood what Cui of Qinghe wanted to do. He tried to ask: "Then my brothers..."
"We only need one." Cui Minshu answered very firmly.
Song Zheng struggled hard: "They are all outstanding..."
"But we don't need it. The Cui family of Qinghe has never lacked outstanding disciples, so we only need the right ones."
Song Zheng lowered his head and fell into deep silence.
Cui Minshu kept looking at him, her eyes were extremely deep, not like the starry sky, but like the devil's abyss!
"Brother Song, do you know why the Taikoo family is the Taikoo family?" It was hard to say, but Song Zheng understood what she meant and shook his head.
"The standard for a medieval family, in addition to inheriting ancient traditions, also requires at least one powerful person to rule the country. History and strength are indispensable.
The Taikoo family has transcended this scope. The standard of the Taikoo family is to have connections with those real heavenly beings."
She paused for a moment and then continued: "The world is like a chess game, and only those in the sky are qualified to be chess players. Eternal families, medieval families, and powerful people who govern the country are just pieces on the chessboard.
The biggest reliance of our Swire family is that we are also chess pieces, but we can communicate with the chess players."
She then pointed at the sky fire and said: "Thirty thousand years ago, Pluto Phoenix went out from the depths of the netherworld, led his fleet of Zhoutian starships, fought into the sky, fought with the heavens, and finally died tragically.
One by one, the star fleets in Zhoutian were shattered and turned into meteors all over the sky. The Pluto Phoenix also burned and fell into the Divine Ash Mountain. This is the origin of the name of the Divine Ash Mountain.
In the past 30,000 years, every few thousand years, there will always be some weird things happening in the Shenjin Mountain. In the end, when we looked into the reason, it was the remnant soul of the Nether Phoenix that was unwilling to die, and after gathering some power, it would come out to cause trouble.
.But this time, it seems even weirder.
And the one in heaven behind our Qinghe Cui Clan happens to know a weakness of Minghuang. If there is anyone on the east bank of Linghe River who can conquer the Heavenly Fire, it must be our Qinghe Cui Clan!"
"Your Excellency is a scholar," she unknowingly changed her title: "You should have heard a saying that if something is not kept secret, it will lead to harm. The matter is so important that we cannot take risks, so all secrets can only be kept by you.
People know! This is an opportunity and your only chance."
She paused for a moment, looked at Song Zheng again, waited quietly for a moment, and said, "I'll give you a day and a night to think about it."
She no longer needed Song Zheng's answer, turned around and drifted away, still dignified and elegant, with a orchid temperament. But Song Zheng raised his head and watched the ladies from the Taikoo family go away, but felt that they were like demons: cold, cruel, and greedy.
,ruthless!
He was extremely confused. He understood Cui Minshu's words clearly. The purpose of Qinghe Cui's interest in Tianhuo was the worst one he had guessed.
The Cui family of Qinghe wants heavenly fire, and then uses it to control the monks! These monks will definitely continue to be tortured by the imperial edict, but unlike before, the imperial edict has become a method for the Cui family of Qinghe to select the dead warriors. They will select the truly powerful dead warriors.
.
Then when the Cui family of Qinghe needs these dead soldiers, Tianhuo will deliver these dead soldiers to the mission place in the name of a secret order. In this way, everything will seem to have nothing to do with the Cui family of Qinghe!
Looking further afield, the sky fire may become more and more powerful, and the scope of the secret edict is not limited to the Hongwu Celestial Dynasty, but may also include the entire seven heroes of the human race, and even the demon race.
By that time, Sky Fire will be the strongest means for the Qinghe Cui family to control the entire east bank of the Linghe River.
They need Song Zheng because they need someone to lurk among these dead men as their spy to prevent any accident from happening and destroying the entire plan.
The Cui family of Qinghe will let him control the sky fire, but they will definitely find a way to control him. And they only want one Song Zheng, Shi Yi, Zhao Xiao, Zhou Kou, Wang Jiu, Pan Feiyi, Miao Yun'er, they don't want any of them!
His brothers and sisters will continue to be under the control of Heavenly Fire, experiencing life and death according to the imperial decree again and again. If they are not careful, they will die!
He can control the sky fire to protect them, but what if the Cui family of Qinghe needs them to die one time?
Song Zheng had his own plan to get rid of Skyfire, but he was not sure whether it would succeed. The Taikoo family in front of him seemed more reliable than his own plan.
He obtained an ancient ship of the Nether Phoenix, and the speculation that the Sky Fire was transformed into the remnant soul of the Nether Phoenix is ​​very credible. He wanted to get rid of it, but to get rid of it completely, rather than getting rid of the Sky Fire and being controlled by Cui.
A burst of noise came, and he suddenly realized that he was back outside the courtyard. Zhou Kou and Shi Yi were fighting for the last pot of good wine. Wang Jiu complained that Sister Zhao ate too much and was not like a girl.
, obviously he didn't eat enough. Miao Yun'er simply giggled happily.
The light shone out from the courtyard door, and suddenly a beautiful silhouette was cut out. Pan Feiyi sensed that he was back, appeared at the door, and asked with a half-smile, "How is the grace of the lady from the Taikoo family?"
Song Zheng laughed all of a sudden, and the gloom in his heart dissipated a little. He walked in and said, "What kind of grace is there? They are a Taikoo family. They only want what they need, and I..." He thought for a while and shook his head: "Absolutely.
Chapter completed!
