Chapter 188 Stealing the Secretary
The Far Eastern Dynasty, the important place in the capital.
The boundless lead clouds stretch like the sea, and the torrential rain covers the sky and the moon.
The lights of the palace flickered on and off in the rain, and blazing thunder suddenly appeared, splitting like ink in the dark night, and suddenly brightening like daylight, and thunder snakes dancing from sky to earth danced wildly in the sky.
Outside the Yin Yang Division's large library, a bookkeeper locked the door and was about to use a spell to seal the library. The torch next to him suddenly shook. In this short and negligible gap, his sight had searched for any possible hidden enemies.
corner of.
At this time, a black shadow suddenly flashed by, the chief clerk's eyes were stern, and his right foot wearing official boots suddenly stepped to the side, but missed the step.
Immediately afterwards, the chief clerk took a closer look and saw a small ball of coal hiding in the corner. The mysterious cat's pupils reflected the light of the lamp and meowed softly at him.
"Hey? Where did the little kitten come from?" Today, the wild cats in the palace are never killed indiscriminately, and the chief clerk is not surprised by the appearance of the little black cat. He just waves to drive it away, "Go, go, I'm going to perform a spell.
"
The little black cat was quite humane, slipping silently into the shadows and disappearing.
The master made seals with both hands quickly, and as he whispered the incantation, the Yin and Yang hexagram disk appeared under his body. The power of the five elements quickly spread to the five nearby stone pillars. Mysterious lines stretched on the stone body, like strips lighting up in the night.
spark.
"There is the Yellow God in front, and there is Yue Zhang behind. The palace seals the ghost gate, and does not avoid powerful people. Use the five directions of the land to raise the waves, and suppress them!" After the spell was settled, the five-color blazing light burst out from the five stone pillars, gathered in the sky above, and then again
It fell like a meteor, forming a translucent magic shield that enveloped the entire library of the Department of Yin and Yang.
The chief clerk flicked his sleeves and robe, turned around and left.
Not long after, the little black cat poked its head out of the darkness, holding something in its mouth, which turned out to be the nameplate that had just been stolen from the principal's waist.
At this time, the giant cursed shield completely isolated the large library from the outside world. Before it was violently broken or actively lifted, outsiders could not enter, and even rainwater falling on the shield could not penetrate at all.
But there is one exception...
The little black cat approached the giant cover with the nameplate in its mouth, and its body entered directly, just like penetrating a bubble with its hands, without any obstruction.
Onmyoji Nameplate, those who carry this object will not be affected by the cursed shield.
The little black cat passed through the giant cover and ran quickly in the courtyard, with splashes of water flying under its paws. Under the cover of night and heavy rain, it silently entered the huge building in front of it.
Thunder flashed across the sky, and the lightning briefly illuminated the house number covered by mist, with ancient characters imprinted on it: The Great Library of the Yin and Yang Division.
There is a small crack under the front door.
As we all know, cats are liquid.
The little black cat squeezed into the gap and scratched the ground with its claws, making a rustling sound. But at this time, it rained heavily and thunder roared. Such a slight sound had long been buried in the rainy night.
After getting in through the crack at the bottom, although there is no light and it is dark, the cat has a pair of eyes with night vision and can see things around it clearly.
There is no one in the big library. After all, manpower is not as effective as spells.
The internal area of the library is very large, as wide as a square. The bookshelves are in a spiral structure, climbing to the top of the ceiling that is tens of meters high. The collection of books is as vast as stars, and they are all sealed by the Yin and Yang curse seal.
Fortunately, the Onmyojis arrange their books according to naming rules in order to make it easier to find books. In addition, since there are nameplates, they will not be blocked by the curse seal.
Soon, the little black cat found the "Broken Dharma Sutra" through the naming rules.
There is only one copy, no second one.
After confirming that there were no books with the same name on other bookshelves, the little black cat took the book and the nameplate in its mouth and escaped from the Onmyoji Library.
As soon as they came out of the giant magic shield, there suddenly appeared a flaming dragon-like torch stretching from far to near in the rain. The little black cat's eyes flashed, and he threw the nameplate on the ground and hid in a corner with the book in his mouth.
There are 13 people coming, 12 of them are all two-clawed golden dragons. Judging from the embroidery on their official hats and robe sleeves, they should be the palace guards of the "Tianxuan Division", and the remaining one is the chief clerk of the "Yin Yang Division" just now.
The leader, the two-clawed golden dragon, said coldly: "Master Registrar, losing the nameplate is not a trivial matter. Think about it again, is it possible that it was stolen?"
The chief clerk's face turned pale with fright. On his way back home, he suddenly found that the nameplate was missing. He did not dare to waste a moment and reported it to Tianxuan Division in order to reduce the loss.
He is the chief registrar of the big library. If he fails to report the lost nameplate, causing thieves to enter the big library and steal the secretary, it will be the direct result of annihilating the nine tribes!
"Nameplate...nameplate..." Because it was so dark, the chief clerk even lay down on the ground, crawling around in a panic, staring at the ground to search.
After groping around, he felt a familiar touch. He quickly grabbed it and took a closer look. He was overjoyed: "Hey, it's here, it's here! It fell here! Maybe the lanyard is loose and not tied tightly..."
The two-clawed golden dragons came over to take a look and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Please keep it safe in the future, Mr. Registrar, otherwise the superiors will really ask us to take action, and it will be very difficult for the brothers." The two-clawed golden dragon spoke in an official tone lukewarmly.
The chief clerk wiped off the rain and cold sweat on his forehead, tightened his grip on the nameplate, nodded and bowed: "Definitely! Definitely..."
The two-clawed golden dragon was about to leave, but suddenly paused, turned around and said, "Why don't we go in and have a look together for peace of mind."
"Okay, I'll invite you first." The chief clerk opened the giant cover, led everyone in, closed it again, and walked towards the big library.
The little black cat's eyes flashed, its four paws stepped on the ground in turn, and it quickly escaped from the palace.
Half a quarter of an hour later, just as it fled to the edge of the palace, fire suddenly penetrated the rain curtain from the sky, thunder exploded in the air, and the soldiers shouted loudly.
The sky is getting brighter and brighter, with orange-red light everywhere. Looking from a high place, the capital city is already ablaze, and the entire palace seems to be burning.
Stretching imperial flags shuttled through the city at high speed, and all 200,000 imperial troops were mobilized. Like a long dragon passing through flames, the air began to be filled with the smell of sand, dust and gunpowder smoke.
Apparently, the Grand Library has discovered that the "Broken Dharma Sutra" has been stolen and is sealing off the palace.
Fortunately, the imperial army mainly rushed towards the vicinity of the big library, and the little black cat was too small to be blocked by ordinary walls and doors. It could also hide in the shadows at any time, so it did not attract much attention among the surrounding troops and was able to move freely.
The little black cat escaped from the encirclement. Directly in front of it was the huge Suzaku Gate of the West Palace, and behind it was the palace with flames of flames. It only needed to cross the Suzaku Bridge in front of it and go out to escape.
However, as soon as it took a step onto the Suzaku Bridge, it suddenly noticed something floating in front of it. When it took a closer look, it was a feather.
The golden phoenix feathers float in the air with the evening wind, as light as an illusion, and the scorching golden color seems to be blooming with blazing brilliance in the dark night. It is so beautiful that it seems not to belong to this world.
Immediately afterwards, flames suddenly shot into the sky from the Zhuque Gate Tower, and the loud and clear phoenixes erupted.
"call out--"
The huge phoenix flapped its wings from the city tower, scattering burning sparks one after another as it soared. If you look closely, you will see extremely shining golden feathers, covering the sky endlessly, as if it wants to replace the rain in the sky and occupy this place.
The phoenix chirped and the blue sky fell, the Luan Feng spread its wings and set off a dazzling curtain of light. It turned in the last direction and swooped towards the Suzaku Bridge like a meteor. Its shape became smaller and smaller. When it fell to the ground, a golden fire suddenly exploded. The feathers all over the sky gathered together instantly and condensed into a human form.
Where Luan Feng rests, a petite figure stands at the end of the Suzaku Bridge, with golden eyes shining with cold light as cold as a clear gleam in the rain curtain. He looks at the little black cat without emotion, and water drops fall from his face that is too delicate to look like a mortal.
It slipped down and dripped on the heavy four-clawed golden dragon robe...
