Outside Songhai Port, above the mirage, inside the Toad Palace.
Luna, who covered her eyes, looked up and seemed to be able to see through the roof and into the sky.
"The stars have recovered. It seems that the Mo family's operation has ended."
"The emperor's star was swaying and its light was dim, but... it did not fall after all. The Mo family failed." Moon God said calmly.
Concubine Yan stood up and replied in the same calm tone, "On the 9th, the flying dragon is in the sky, Lord Lijian... With such a starry sky, the Emperor Star is dim. Do you really think that the Mohist family has failed?"
"The emperor is not dead." Moon God was silent for a moment before replying.
According to the "Book of Changes", flying dragons in the sky are a sign of good fortune, and generally represent the prosperity of the Spring and Autumn Period and the reign of emperors - of course, this is when applied to divination.
If it were purely astrology, it would be a different story, but it would still be more or less the same.
Tonight, the horoscope changed suddenly, from the original sign of "Shangjiu, the dragon has regrets" to "Nine-five, the flying dragon is in the sky". If interpreted according to the normal method, it will definitely be considered an auspicious sign, and it is aimed at the emperor.
Auspicious image.
The upper nine represents that things will turn to extremes, and they will flourish and then decline.
This is obviously not a good word for the emperor, let alone compared with the connotation of the flying dragon in the sky.
Now that the Ninth Five-Year Plan appears, the Emperor Star is shaky and dim. The meaning behind this is worth pondering.
To interpret this phenomenon in a straightforward way, it basically means that the emperor Ying Zheng has reached the end, and that it will come to an end soon.
The Mo family's Qinglong plan failed, but in a sense it was a success. After all, their goal was to kill Ying Zheng, and now it just delayed a little longer to complete the goal.
As a master of astrology, Yue Shen could not refute Concubine Yan's statement from the stars, so she could only insist on the fact that Ying Zheng was not dead.
Concubine Yan glanced at Moon God and was too lazy to argue with him. She said the last sentence and disappeared:
"Star Soul is coming."
Concubine Yan disappeared, and Star Soul rushed into the Toad Palace with a gloomy expression.
Without hesitation, he broke into the room where the Moon God was. After scanning the entire room, he fixed his gaze on the Moon God and said with a smile:
"I just watched the fish for a while, Lord Moon God made so much noise!"
Luna calmly walked to the couch, knelt down and sat down, and then calmly replied, "The stars are very interesting tonight. I just went to stargazing on a whim. Why, Lord Xinghun also has a nature?"
Hearing this, Xinghun glanced up subconsciously, and then immediately remembered that the stars tonight were impossible to observe with the naked eye, and the fake smile on his face couldn't help but become more and more hideous:
"Dark clouds cover the sky and the stars and the moon are hidden. This kind of celestial phenomenon, Lord Moon, actually thinks it is suitable for stargazing?"
"So what?" Moon Goddess replied nonchalantly, "The sky is not good, but the stars are interesting, and of course worth watching."
"It is precisely because the sky is not suitable that I activate the stargazer."
"Does Lord Xinghun know a little bit about these things?"
The last rhetorical question was clearly Moon God's mockery of Star Soul.
Xinghun knows how to observe stars, but his level is vastly different from that of Luna. The latter is mocking Star Soul with his professionalism.
Star Soul, however, was limited by his lack of skills and obviously had no way to refute it - whether the refutation was reasonable or not, Luna could reply with "I understand if you can."
The right to speak of the stargazing group is in the hands of the old artist Yueshen, while Xinghun can only be passively criticized.
So Xinghun stopped arguing with Moon God about this issue and continued to ask with a sneer, "Then what can Lord Moon God think?"
Luna calmly shook her head, "No."
"I thought I had caught some mystery, but unfortunately I found nothing in the end."
This unabashed perfunctory made the face of the good-looking Xinghun even more ugly. He lowered his voice and asked coldly, "Lord Moon God's astrological skills are the best in the world. After deliberately using stargazing instruments, he found nothing. This is somewhat unreasonable.
Bar?"
"I am not worthy of Lord Xinghun's ridiculous praise." Moon God first humbly deprecated himself, and then defended in a casual manner, "As for the harvest... there is never any saying that there will be a harvest when watching the stars.
, even if you are proficient in this method, most of the time you are just doing futile things."
"I can only say that I have bad luck tonight."
"Bad luck..." Xinghun laughed angrily, his whole body shaking several times, "Okay! You're very good!"
"I want to see what you want to do!"
"I've delayed Mr. Donghuang's business, let me see how you explain it!"
"If I miss my business, I will be punished myself. There is no need for Sir Xinghun to worry." Moon Goddess replied lightly.
Xinghun snorted coldly and was about to leave with a puff of sleeves.
Something must have happened in the Toad Palace, but he couldn't tell what happened, and he couldn't ask the moon god about it. There was no point in continuing to stalemate with the opponent here, it would just embarrass himself.
At this time, it was impossible for him to break up with the Moon God, so he could only tolerate it for the time being.
As soon as his short legs took two steps, Xinghun's eyes flashed with light, he stopped again, turned to the Moon God and asked:
"How's the girl doing?"
"If Lord Xinghun wants to know, just go and see for yourself." Yueshen didn't care about this and replied lightly, "But don't disturb the child, lest you really miss Lord Donghuang's business."
Xinghun turned a deaf ear to the Moon God's insinuation about carrying a gun and a stick, and just replied with a sneer, "That doesn't need to worry you, Lord Moon God."
After saying that, Xinghun waved his sleeves and left.
Luna really didn't care what he did next.
With Xinghun's ability, it was difficult to tell what happened to that girl.
And even if he saw it, he wouldn't dare to do anything to the girl at this juncture.
The emperor is about to arrive, and he is an emperor who is likely to be furious. Although Xinghun is arrogant and arrogant, he still has a brain and is afraid of death.
Donghuang Taiyi's plan requires many people, Moon God is one of them, and Star Soul is also one of them, but some people are necessary and some are not.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Star Soul unfortunately is the latter.
………………
At the same time, the Eastern Patrol Team.
The situation here was similar to what Gao Jianli and the others expected, as if they had experienced a real natural disaster.
The earth cracked, mountains collapsed, dust filled the sky, and the ground was devastated.
After Qinglong left, several thunder and lightning flashed again in the sky, and then a heavy rain began amidst the endless thunder.
The heavy rain washed away the dust and smoke that filled the sky, and also scattered the gravel and dirt on the ground.
What was different from what Gao Jianli and others expected was that the casualties were far less horrific than they seemed.
Most people's lives were not in danger, but they were more or less affected and suffered varying degrees of injuries. They all looked miserable.
And Ying Zheng, who was at the core of Qinglong's attack, was not only not dead, but also unscathed.
Gu Xun, dressed in white, stood next to Ying Zheng, and the area within three feet of him seemed to be two completely different places from the area three feet away.
This small area was not damaged in any way, and even the heavy rain that fell at this time was completely blocked, forming a hemispherical inverted rain curtain.
Of course, everyone present knew that Gu Xun was protecting more than just this small area, because nothing happened to them.
Although he was disgraced and hit by heavy rain, he was still in a state of embarrassment and his life was not in danger.
"Is your Majesty okay?" Gu Xun smiled and said to Ying Zhengyi.
Ying Zheng's face was a little pale - not only because of the fear of life and death before, but also because of the pain caused by the migraine attack.
"Is that...the agency Qinglong?" Ying Zheng did not respond to Gu Xun's concern, but asked about Qinglong.
Gu Xun didn't care. He raised his hand and conveyed a stream of infuriating energy to Ying Zheng in a subtle way, which relieved his physical discomfort. Then he nodded and replied:
"good."
"The first of the four spirit beasts of the Mohist Mechanism, the strongest Mechanism Beast created by Mo Zhai, the ancestor of the Mohist Family - the Mechanism Blue Dragon."
While Gu Xun answered, he raised his hand to use his true energy to heal Dianqing who was lying next to him.
Ying Zheng was silent for a moment, his expression vaguely changed several times, and then he asked, "The Imperial Master already knew what happened tonight?"
Gu Xun had no intention of hiding anything and nodded honestly in admission.
"Know."
Ying Zheng looked at Gu Xun, who admitted directly, and was silent for a while. Finally, he couldn't help but continue to ask:
"Why didn't you stop it in advance?"
Ying Zheng looked calm, but in his heart he was really angry about the attack, otherwise he would not have asked this question.
Gu Xun had saved him many times, but he had never been particularly active in the rescue. Ying Zheng had long been used to it, so he never questioned why Gu Xun didn't eliminate the danger in advance.
This time is an exception.
Gu Xun remained calm, while treating the ceremony, he explained calmly:
"Everything is out of control tonight."
"The Mo family's plan completely exceeded Zhang Han's expectations, so the convoy encountered this out-of-control attack."
"That boy and the agency Qinglong were also out of control, otherwise His Majesty wouldn't have been on the line between life and death twice."
"I knew these things were going to get out of control, but I couldn't stop them."
"Because the source of everything out of control lies in Songhai, in... mirage. If you stop it rashly, I can't tell the consequences."
Ying Zheng was speechless.
He may be dissatisfied with Gu Xun's actions, but he is still willing to believe in Gu Xun, so at this time he also believes that Gu Xun did not deceive him in order to avoid liability.
In other words, the source of everything tonight is the mirage.
Then there's nothing more to say.
The mirage is related to his dream of immortality, but Gu Xun does not support this matter, so he never likes Gu Xun to interfere too much in the mirage.
Gu Xun also followed his wishes. Although he often played yin and yang, he never took it seriously and only observed mirages.
Since this matter involves Mirage, Ying Zheng has nothing to say if he doesn't intervene.
Of course, if Ying Zheng really wants to hold Gu Xun accountable, there will still be trouble to be found.
It was related to a mirage, and it was inconvenient for Gu Xun to stop it in advance, so he could also inform the convoy so that others would not be caught off guard.
However, this kind of holding on and holding on is not Ying Zheng's style.
There was such a big commotion in the Mo family, but the empire did not receive the news in advance. The responsibility of Luo Wang and the Shadow Guards was the primary responsibility, and they should not trouble the Imperial Master in any case.
Seeing that Ying Zheng stopped talking, Gu Xun turned his attention to Zhao Gao and Zhang Han.
Both of them were injured by the dragon's roar before, but it was not particularly serious. They just suffered from breathing disorder and temporarily lost the ability to move. They have recovered now.
The two of them stood upright beside each other, as miserable as a drowned rat in the heavy rain, but they did not dare to use their true energy to block the rain.
At this time, the more embarrassed they are, the better.
"You...are still standing there stupidly?" Gu Xun looked at the misfortune of the two of them, and the smile on his lips became even wider, and he asked in anger.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao and Zhang Han quickly glanced at Ying Zheng's face and saw that he had no reaction, and quickly started working on their own.
Zhao Gao ordered Six Swordsmen to prepare the carriage where Ying Zheng would stay and clean up the mess here.
Zhang Han then commanded the recovered Imperial Guards, counted the manpower, checked the casualties, and reorganized the convoy.
The convoy is basically paralyzed now, and it will probably take a lot of time to clean it up.
After Zhang Han and Zhao Gao got busy, Gu Xun's attention shifted to the three people who were hiding the sun but Xie Lu - they had nothing to do.
"You... please disperse." Gu Xun sighed inexplicably, waved his hand and gave the order instead.
Then all three of them ran away without even asking Zhao Gao for instructions.
This is certainly not in line with the rules of the net, but at this time, the people who made the net dare not disobey the imperial master in the slightest.
Even their leader got busy because of someone else's unreasonable words, and they, mere assassins, were not qualified to talk nonsense. Anyway, even if Zhao Gao pursued him afterwards, the most he could do was to be fined three drinks, which they could afford.
What's more, two of these three people have problems.
After the three of them left, Liu Jiannu also drove a carriage that was still intact. The people in the carriage may have been protected by Gu Xun and most of them were fine, but the carriage was more or less destroyed and the horses were running away.
Run, die, be crippled.
Six Swordsmen also made a careful selection before putting together a 'brand new' carriage - the horses and carriage of this carriage did not match the original ones.
But at this time, we can't pay attention to such details.
Seeing that the Six Sword Slaves had prepared the carriage, Gu Xunyi extended his hand to invite Ying Zheng, "If you don't mind, I will personally escort your Majesty to Songhai first."
After Ying Zheng thought about it for a moment, he stepped onto the carriage.
He accepted Gu Xun's proposal.
Although this suggestion is very illegal, but the situation is like this, there is no need to pay attention to these face issues.
It will take a lot of time to recover from the paralysis of the convoy. The Xixiang Valley Road was almost destroyed by Qinglong, and it will take more time to clear the road.
He has been trapped here, and he has no shame at all.
Seeing Ying Zheng entering the carriage, Gu Xunyi raised his hand and used his true energy to hold the ceremony and place it on the carriage frame, and then got on the carriage himself - fortunately, the carriages in the convoy were not ordinary carriages, otherwise the carriages on the carriage would
I really can’t accommodate Gu Xun and Dianqing.
After getting ready, Gu Xun pulled the reins and drove the carriage slowly away, taking the emperor with him first.
As for the collapsed mountains and cracked earth, they are not a problem for Gu Xun.
No matter how big the rocks are, he can easily push them aside, no matter how wide the cracks are, he can drive the carriage across them out of thin air. Soon the people and the carriage disappear from the sight of the rest of the convoy, and he can simply clear the way for the convoy.
Check out the road.
Although it cannot be used directly as a road, it can save them a lot of effort.
