Chapter seven hundred and ninth interview at night
Along the way, the outer palace was fine, and a group of patrolling eunuchs could pass by about every quarter of an hour. But as we went deeper, when we were still miles away from the towering thousand-meter blood platform, the surroundings
The imperial guards have reached a shocking level.
Groups of eunuchs carrying blood-colored lanterns shuttled back and forth like ghosts. All eunuchs were wearing heavy armor, with uniform square brass maces hanging around their waists. There were no sharp weapons in the palace to avoid being ominous, but this heavy weapon weighed two tons.
Three hundred kilograms of square brass mace in the hands of these eunuchs of heavenly status and status, even if there is a formation to suppress their fighting spirit, it can still exert frightening lethality.
The eunuchs traveling back and forth followed a complex and huge trajectory. They wandered between palaces and pavilions, with almost no blind spots in their sight. The uniquely designed palaces and pavilions prevented any obstruction to the eunuchs' sight. Occasionally, some
The ancient trees and cornices are an eyesore, so there must be a permanent sentry stationed nearby.
And this is just the outskirts of the imperial city.
On the road leading to the real core of the imperial city, which is the inner city where Ying Zhu lives daily, there is a towering city wall. This city wall is several feet higher than the outer city wall of the imperial city. All the people stationed on the city wall are uniform.
They are all elite eunuch guards.
Especially the 360 golden-armored guards standing in front of the inner wall. They are all masters who have half-stepped into the holy realm. Three hundred and sixty half-stepped into the holy realm, and 360 eunuchs!
Lin Qi looked at these expressionless guards and felt his scalp going numb.
Dragon City, Dragon City. What you want to rebel against is such a terrible empire! The guards guarding the gate are all half-step holy realms, and they are all eunuchs! In the Western Continent, which force is willing to take down half-step holy realm people?
The masters are castrated? Which empire does not do everything possible to recruit such masters and let them work hard to reproduce their descendants in order to obtain more heavenly status and holy realm from their descendants?
But in the Blood Qin Empire, the people who can at least get the title of hereditary earl in the Western Continent are just eunuchs guarding the city gates!
Eunuch Hai took Lin Qi and Hu Xinzhu into the city gate, passed through the long corridor behind the city gate, and saw a bloody high tower in front of them. This high tower is the center of the entire imperial city, and also the defensive formation of the entire imperial city.
's center.
Standing under this thousand-meter-high blood-colored stone tower, Mr. Hai held his head high and slowly pulled out a black edict from his sleeve: "Master Hu. The original Concubine Xi was seriously ill and died suddenly. Your Majesty has promoted a nobleman to succeed him.
I have received the title of Concubine Rui. Are you happy, Your Majesty, your Majesty means to report a sudden illness and death and send you to the imperial prison. -< Shuhai Pavilion>-(.)"
"Interrogate him well and ask him what he knows. If you ask him clearly, it will be clear!"
Grandpa Hai's voice was slow and unspeakable: "Only to the outside world, Concubine Xi is still Concubine Xi, and Concubine Xi is safe and sound! Prince Xi is just suffering from a sudden illness... Concubine Ru's maternal clan will be put aside for the time being. After two
It’s already a month, so let’s let them get infected with the epidemic.”
Lin Qi's face twitched. Eunuch Hai's words were very clear. The original Concubine Xi was already dead. It didn't matter how she died. Anyway, she died of a sudden illness. Since Concubine Rui was also seriously ill, then you, Prince Xi,
You can't be as healthy as before, right? You have to be sick, right? So, when you are sick, please go to the Zong Prison for a while. The so-called Zong Prison is a prison specially set up for members of the royal family. A place more terrifying than the imperial prison.
.
After entering imperial prison, one can still come out, but after entering Zong prison, there has never been a precedent for people coming out alive.
Except for Prince Xi, even the original concubine Xi's natal family will all be infected with the epidemic. This is to eradicate the roots, this is to wipe out the nine tribes. Obviously, this is Ying Zhu's response to certain things, bloody, indifferent,
Ruthless response.
However, no one can say that Ying Zhu is too cruel, too bloody, and too ruthless, because Prince Xi is just suddenly ill, and Concubine Xi's mother family is only infected with the epidemic. As for Concubine Xi herself, as Mr. Hai Lao said, she
Squatting in the palace safe and sound, right? It's just that no one can see this Concubine Xi.
Hu Xinzhu was stunned for a moment, then bowed to take the imperial edict and slowly stuffed it into his sleeve.
Lin Qi glanced at the imperial edict and breathed out gently. He was discussing with Hu Xinzhu just now. Ying Zhu didn't seem to care much about what happened these days, but he didn't expect that he would give such a fierce statement so soon.
's response. In just over a day, Concubine Xi was already dead, and she must have been severely tortured before her death, followed by Prince Xi, and then Concubine Xi's family.
Not sparing anyone, killing them all. Is this the emperor's method?
Raising his head and looking at the blood-colored tower, Lin Qi felt that the blood in his body was undulating uncontrollably. The tower continued to release a strict iron-blooded atmosphere to the surroundings, trying to drag Lin Qi's blood along with it.
It beat at a constant frequency. Lin Qi Sanhai's seven rounds moved with all his strength, tightly controlling his blood and heartbeat, not letting this evil tower affect him.
Mr. Hai stood here quietly for a cup of tea. Then he turned around and glanced at Lin Qi in surprise. He raised his triangular eyes slightly, nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to talk to Lin Qi without saying a word.
Go forward.
Following the avenue paved with black jade, Lin Qi passed through a row of halls and came to a large-scale garden.
The night was thick, and there was a mist covering the surroundings. The mist looked light, but even with Lin Qi's sight, he couldn't see what was behind the mist. Mr. Hai Lao led Lin Qi and Hu Xinzhu to walk forward slowly, and soon they were
We came to a big lake.
There is a thin layer of water mist rising on the lake with an area of tens of thousands of acres. You can see a small island in the middle of the lake. On the highest point of the island is a white tower that is thirteen stories high. Lin Qi stood by the lake.
, could feel the rich murderous intention hidden under this lake. Through the starlight in the sky, Lin Qi could vaguely see the black shadows swimming rapidly under the lake.
It was unclear what those black shadows were, but the aura they gave off made Lin Qi feel a little threatened.
While standing by the lake for a cup of tea, a small iron-hulled boat slowly came over. Grandpa Hai waved to Lin Qi and Hu Xinzhu, and slowly jumped onto the boat. Lin Qi and Hu Xinzhu looked at each other.
After taking one look, he quickly got on the boat. The two young eunuchs driving the boat waved the wood pulp and carefully rowed the boat towards the island.
There is a hint of mystery in all this, Ying Zhu's unexpected school entrance examination, his unreasonable summons in the middle of the night, and the secret imperial edict. Lin Qi and Hu Xinzhu both have an inexplicable feeling in their hearts. What happened tonight is really...
It's a little too weird.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Qi put a bit of mental power into the World Ring.
He has repaired the damaged space magic arrays these days. As long as these magic arrays are opened, he can summon the subordinates of the Fifth Abyss. There are powerful defensive arrays everywhere in the imperial city of the Blood Qin Empire, but
Except for the magic circle that suppresses people's cultivation, which is open all year round, many other magic circles are just ready to go.
Lin Qi is confident that when necessary, he should have the opportunity to recruit his subordinates. He can even bring out a few of the old monsters in the Fifth Abyss. With them taking action, Ying Zhen can do whatever he wants.
No matter what, I have the ability to adapt to changes.
Moreover, Ying Zhu summoned himself and Hu Xinzhu in such a secretive way, so there shouldn't be any malicious intent, at most it's just a bit shameful.
The boat slowly arrived at a small pier on the island. Grandpa Hai took Lin Qi and Hu Xinzhu ashore, and then without saying a word, they reached the highest point of the island, walked into the thirteen-story tower, and climbed
Climb to the ninth floor of the tower.
A small teleportation magic circle was arranged here. Lin Qi glanced at the magic circle. In the Black Abyss Prison, he was taught by the young man and Yun. He also had profound knowledge of the magic circle. This teleportation magic circle in front of him
The formation is very simple, and the teleportation distance will not exceed a hundred miles, which means that it will basically not leave Shuangyang Chilong City.
Lin Qi remembered such a simple teleportation array at a glance. As long as Lin Qi could copy its spatial fluctuation frequency, he could find the spatial coordinates corresponding to this teleportation array and make a teleportation array to escape from that space coordinates.
, or re-enter that place from the outside.
Grandpa Hai called the old man to step onto the teleportation circle. After the magic circle was opened, Lin Qi's mental power was quickly released, firmly recording the surrounding space fluctuations.
This should be the biggest mistake of Ying Lu or Hai Laoggong - they only saw that Lin Qi could beat Ying Sheng in terms of brute force, but they did not expect that Lin Qi was also a very good magician, and even one who was qualified to make his own magic.
The magician of the space teleportation magic circle. The space fluctuations here cannot be concealed by Lin Qi's scanning, and Lin Qi has recorded the smallest space fluctuations.
By the time the light from the teleportation circle disappeared, Lin Qi and the others had arrived at a spacious palace.
The rectangular palace is thirty meters wide and about a hundred meters long. Twelve black dragon columns firmly support the huge arched dome above.
In the middle of the palace with simple and elegant furnishings, a light green sweet-scented osmanthus tree about ten meters high was quietly suspended in the air, its branches and roots dancing slowly in the air, exuding an indescribable vitality and agility.
Ying Zhu stood under the light green osmanthus tree with his hands behind his back, looking up at the osmanthus tree in trance.
Lines of light blue mist were released from the tree and slowly penetrated into Ying Zhu's body. This was exactly what Lin Qi had just felt in the Qionghua Forest. The mysterious vitality hidden deep in Ying Zhu's body was precisely this.
The vitality caused his body to almost collapse. Ying Zhu, whose vitality had been cut off, survived, and was constantly stimulating his new vitality, allowing him to slowly recover to health.
Lin Qi and Hu Xinzhu slowly stepped forward and stood behind Ying Zhu without saying a word.
After half an hour, Ying Zhu said softly: "Lin Qi, if you can identify the origin and origin of this thing, if you can activate its full effect, I will give you a heavy reward, even if it is
It’s not a bad idea to split the earth and make him a king!”
Lin Qi was shocked, while Hu Xinzhu's eyes widened. (To be continued...)
