Li Chengqi's eloquent whispers would make even a hard-hearted person moved when he heard them. Even a tough man like Xie Hu couldn't help feeling pity at this time. He turned his head away and couldn't bear to look at Li Chengqi, who was holding the pearl tightly.
He said to Li Chengqi:
"Your Majesty, please put her down first. Prince Linzi doesn't know when he will come back."
Li Chengqi shook his head slightly, with a sad smile on his lips:
"Put it on this woman's bed? No, that would tarnish my pearl. I'll just hold her like this, lest she walk away as soon as I let go."
Liehu couldn't bear it anymore, strode up to the unconscious Shangguan Wan'er, and said in a hateful voice:
"According to what King Linzi said just now, all this is a sin caused by this woman. I will simply kill her now to avenge Mingzhu!" As he spoke, Liehu raised his palm.
But Li Chengqi stopped him:
"Wait a minute. I'm going to have her and her third brother confront each other on the spot. I want to find out why this woman insists on putting Mingzhu to death!"
Time passed by, and it had been a while, and Li Longji hadn't come back yet. Liehu felt more and more uneasy. Although he had just seen Li Longji's fierce denial, he also believed Li Longji and this matter.
It doesn't matter. But now that Li Longji has not returned, he has to be a little suspicious. He stands directly next to Shangguan Wan'er. Liehu is guessing that if Li Longji is really the culprit who killed Mingzhu, then he will now
He didn't really go to get the colorful feathers, but to mobilize the army to catch them all including himself and even Li Chengqi! There was no way, Liehu had always had a very bad impression of Li Longji. So he had secretly made up his mind, if
, Li Longji really came with his troops, then he would kill Shangguan Wan'er with one palm, and then escape with the guardian gods first. The days are long, and sooner or later he will kill Li Longji to avenge the Pearl!
Just when Hunter Fox's mind was fluctuating, there was suddenly a burst of chaotic footsteps outside, and Li Longji's voice came from far away:
"Brother, here are the colorful feather clothes!"
Hearing this sentence, Hunter Fox's heart suddenly lifted:
‘Did I really blame Li Longji wrongly?’ He turned his head and gestured to the patron saint guarding Shangguan Wan’er with his eyes, and at the same time said via voice:
"Keep an eye on her, be careful of scams! As soon as you receive my signal, you will kill this woman immediately, no mistakes!"
The patron saint nodded seriously and stretched out a hand to grab Shangguan Wan'er's wrist. In this way, as long as Hunting Fox sends a signal, he can immediately break Shangguan Wan'er's meridians and make her die immediately.
Death.
Seeing that the patron saint was ready, Liehu walked to Li Chengqi's side. At this time, Li Longji also walked in. Behind him, there were four strong guards, carrying a large box. Li Chengqi was a little bit
After looking at the four people strangely, Li Longji understood what he meant and explained:
"This box is too heavy. It takes four of them to lift it."
The reason why Li Longji understood Li Chengqi's thoughts immediately was because he had the same doubt when he first saw the box. He thought that the box containing a piece of clothing would not weigh much, but he did not expect that,
It took four strong men to lift this box.
"Are you sure this is the colorful feather coat?" Li Chengqi asked, looking at the box.
This is a rectangular box, very old, with complex patterns carved on it. It looks black, but it shines with a strange luster, and you can't tell what the texture is.
Li Longji nodded:
"The items in the treasure house are specially registered and guarded by special personnel. No one is allowed to enter without permission. I only got in with my father's order. According to the guard, what is inside is colorful clothes and feathers. But
In fact, I don’t know whether it is..."
Li Longji's last words aroused Li Chengqi's rage:
"You don't know!" Obviously, he thought that Li Longji had been gone for so long and yet he brought back such an answer, which he absolutely couldn't bear.
At this time, Liehu suddenly reached out and pressed Li Chengqi's arm:
"My lord, don't worry, this is indeed a colorful feather coat!"
"How do you know?" Brother Li Chengqi asked almost simultaneously.
Now that the matter has come to this, Xie Hu can no longer hide it, so he has no choice but to say:
"It has been said from ancient times that the colorful feather coats were made by the Fang family, and this box has the Fang family's mark on it, so I can recognize it."
Li Chengqi had known for a long time that Mingzhu actually had nothing to do with the Fang family in the Western Regions. He wanted Nishang Yuyi just to save his mother, but he didn't expect that Nishang Yuyi was also related to the Fang family. Things seemed a little complicated. At this time, Li Longji faced Fox Hunter.
Another question was asked:
"Since this box was made by the Fang family, can you open it?"
It turned out that Li Longji had been following the strong man to study the box carefully along the way. He had long discovered that not only was there no lock on the box, he could not even see the box body or lid.
The seam was there. Just now, he was wondering if he should find a way to split the box open. Unexpectedly, Liehu suddenly revealed the origin of the box, so Li Longji quickly raised the question.
Hunter Fox nodded:
"Let me try." He strode to the box, bent down, and used a strange movement with his hands to gently slide across the surface of the box. It looked like a wizard was doing something mysterious and weird.
After stroking the whole box several times, he suddenly let out a low drink. It seemed that he was preparing for an attack. Li Longji was surprised:
'Does he want to use heavy techniques to open this box?'
Before Li Longji finished thinking, he suddenly saw the box open as if he had received an order, and the lid of the box was slowly lifted. As soon as the box was opened, people understood why the box was so heavy. It turned out that this box
It turned out to be a whole piece of material, but a small hole the size of a fist was dug out in the center. And the legendary colorful feather coat was placed in the small hole.
Li Longji looked at Nishang Yuyi who was sitting quietly in the box, feeling a little lost:
‘Shouldn’t the Nishang Yuyi be a piece of clothing? Why is it so small? It’s like I can hold it completely with one hand.’
At this time, Li Chengqi suddenly whispered:
"If you don't bother me, please take it out." Because he was in the palace after all, it was inconvenient for Li Chengqi to call Brother Liehu directly, and he didn't want to call him Master Wu, so when he talked to Liehu
When I was there, I always called you.
Liehu understood what Li Chengqi meant, so he didn't care about it. To be honest, he was really worried about letting others touch this treasure that originally belonged to the Fang family. So he didn't refuse and gently stretched out his hands to hold it up.
Wearing colorful feather coats.
Liehu solemnly held the colorful feather coat, straightened up, and then faced the bright sunshine outside the house, shook his hands gently, and unfolded the feather coat. People in the room couldn't help but exclaimed, and even forgot sadly.
A look of astonishment flashed across the eyes of Li Chengqi, who had watched the whole world.
When the colorful feather coat unfolded, everyone could see that it was really a piece of clothing, long, with a body and sleeves, and it was not the thin gauze that people imagined.
A piece of clothing that looks very thick, but is very, very soft. It is like the softest tuft of down under the wings of a swan.
The feather coat is colorful. When people see it, they immediately understand why it is called the colorful feather coat. Because its color is like a cut section of a real rainbow, with bright colors and flowing brilliance. Although everyone can see it with their own eyes.
It had just been taken out of the box, but now, everyone felt that it was clearly a rainbow flying into the house and into the hands of the fox hunter.
With a slight movement of Hunter Fox's hand, the rainbow swayed, and the skirt of his clothes floated in the wind. It was so light that it seemed as if it would melt into the wind soon.
Liehu was also shocked. Although he had always known about the existence of the colorful feather coat, he had never actually seen it. He always thought that he already knew how exquisite the Fang family's craftsmanship was, but when he saw
When I was wearing colorful feather clothes, I truly understood that I had underestimated the skills of the Fang family in the past. The ancestors of the Fang family have transcended the concept of skilled craftsmen in the general sense, because no matter how skilled the craftsmen are, they still use cloth or fur to make clothes.
Yes, only God can use the colorful clouds and clouds in the sky to make clothes!
Li Chengqi was the first to wake up from the shock of the colorful dress. Yes, no matter how perfect the dress was, its significance to Li Chengqi was just to fulfill Mingzhu's wish.
So Li Chengqi whispered:
"Put it on the pearl."
Liehu nodded, walked to Mingzhu with Yuyi in hand, gently held up Yuyi, and carefully covered Mingzhu's body. Perhaps due to the influence of Li Chengqi's emotions, Liehu always felt that Mingzhu was not
She's not dead, so I'm always afraid of disturbing her.
Liehu covered Mingzhu with his feather coat, and his fingers accidentally touched Mingzhu's chest. Suddenly, Liehu let out an exclamation:
"ah!"
His exclamation was so sudden that Li Chengqi was startled and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Liehu didn't care about talking or being rude. He immediately put his palm on Mingzhu's chest. After a moment, he said in disbelief:
"Why is this happening? Why is Mingzhu's chest still warm?"
With "Hunting Fox", brothers Li Chengqi and Li Longji opened their eyes wide, especially Li Chengqi, whose body was shaking slightly. Just now, after receiving the news of Mingzhu's death, he kept calm because he had already made up his mind.
Determined to accompany Mingzhu to death. But at this time, when Mingzhu's heart felt warm when he heard what Liehu said, he really panicked, because he was so eager that what Liehu said was true, so he
Feeling scared because he is afraid of disappointment.
At this time, Li Longji had come to Li Chengqi and grabbed one of Mingzhu's wrists. Liehu also grabbed Mingzhu's other wrist. Li Chengqi watched them nervously because he knew that they were touching.
The pulse of the pearl.
Li Chengqi watched the two of them nervously, for fear of missing any subtle changes on their faces. The two of them did not feel for their pulse for too long, and raised their heads almost at the same time. The disappointment in their expressions was self-evident. Li Chengqi only felt that he
My heart suddenly fell into the dark and cold abyss.
Although disappointed, the expressions of Liehu and Li Longji were different. Li Longji was pure despair, while Liehu's expression still contained deep doubts. He stared at Li Chengqi and said word by word:
"My lord, please touch Mingzhu's heart. Her heart should never be warm after such a long time."
Li Chengqi followed the instructions and put his hand on Mingzhu's heart. Sure enough, as Lie Hu said, Mingzhu's heart was warm, and this kind of warmth was a feeling unique to the human body. In other words,
Now, if anyone doesn't look at Mingzhu's appearance or feels Mingzhu's pulse, but just puts his hand on Mingzhu's heart, he will feel that she is still alive and well, but just asleep!
what on earth is it?
In the end, Mingzhu failed to convince the two eunuchs to let her go. They held Mingzhu hard and tried to pour poisoned wine into her. Mingzhu struggled hard, but it was only after she struggled that she discovered that the two eunuchs had good qualities.
Mingzhu couldn't defeat them due to his lack of skills. After a few rounds, Mingzhu was pinned down by them.
The two men pried open Mingzhu's mouth and poured the poisonous wine in. This time, Shangguan Wan'er used poison that would kill Mingzhu if it entered her throat. So the poisonous wine flowed into Mingzhu's stomach, and Mingzhu immediately felt
There was a burst of colic, and the body fell heavily to the ground. The two eunuchs waited for a while, and repeatedly checked Mingzhu to confirm that she had indeed died. Then they exited the cave, locked the iron door, and returned to Shangguan Wan'er.
went.
Mingzhu suddenly felt that she had fallen into a milky white void. Her thoughts were intermittently and she could not think about one thing completely. She only knew what she was looking for now, but what exactly was she looking for?
She couldn't explain it herself.
Faintly, she seemed to hear a voice calling her. The voice was very familiar, but she just couldn't remember whose voice it was, let alone what the person who made the voice had to do with her. But she couldn't remember.
A sudden thought came to her mind, that as long as she broke out of this milky white void, she would be able to see that person, and then she would think of many, many things. But no matter how hard she tried, her body always seemed like a ball.
It's like cotton, and without any strength, it's impossible to get out of this void.
Gradually, the void became colder and colder, as if it was snowing. Mingzhu also felt that her strength was getting weaker and weaker. She felt that she was about to freeze. She felt that she was about to fall asleep. The only thing that was still there was
What kept her going was a voice that seemed to be reminding her repeatedly:
"Mingzhu, don't sleep. Just hold on for a little longer. Once you fall asleep, you will be frozen to death. As long as you are awake, you can survive. Be strong and hold on for a little longer."
Mingzhu really felt that it was getting colder and colder.
Suddenly, Mingzhu's body became hot, as if she had stepped from winter to the scorching summer sun in one step. The warm sunshine shone on her, and she felt so comfortable. Mingzhu felt that her body was gradually becoming warmer.
With strength, her body became hotter and hotter, and the milky white color of the void became lighter and lighter, finally becoming almost translucent.
Suddenly, the voice that had been calling Mingzhu came to Mingzhu's ears again. This time, Mingzhu heard it:
"This is Master Zhong's voice!"
Mingzhu's spirit became excited. This was the first time she heard the voice of modern people after returning to the Tang Dynasty. Mingzhu hurried forward, wanting to get out of the void as soon as possible and see Master Zhong, even if she could hear
It's okay to go talk to him.
But this void seemed to be endless, and there was no way to get out. Mingzhu felt anxious and shouted:
"Uncle Zhong, where are you? I'm here, can you hear my voice?"
Mingzhu shouted over and over again until her voice became hoarse. Master Zhong also called her over and over again.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning-like light appeared in the void. The pearl stung her eyes and instinctively covered her eyes with her hands. And the moment she blocked her eyes, she suddenly heard a very subtle sound.
A strange but pleasant sound. This sound is like the ensemble of many percussion instruments from ancient times, except that their ensemble sound is very small.
Before Mingzhu could tell what the sound was, a hoarse scream suddenly came from her ears:
"Pearl!"
This time, Mingzhu immediately recognized whose voice it was. She opened her eyes suddenly and saw that familiar face:
"Yan!" Mingzhu also shouted.
Homura, who had been staring at the hourglass just now, was exhausted mentally and physically. He couldn't care less about anything and took the pearl into his arms!
Li Chengqi, Xie Hu, and Li Longji were looking at Mingzhu in confusion. Suddenly, Li Chengqi saw that Mingzhu's colorful feathers seemed to move. At first, he thought he was being deceived, but then,
Liehu and Li Longji also discovered it. They both saw a strange brilliance flowing on the colorful feather coat. This brilliance seemed to come from the depths of the feather coat. It was just a faint layer at first, and slowly
Slowly, the brilliance becomes more and more obvious and splendid.
"What's going on?" Li Longji asked. He was asking Liehu, because here, Liehu seemed to be the person who knew Nishang Yuyi best. But Liehu was also looking at Nishang Yuyi blankly, and he didn't know either.
, what exactly happened.
Suddenly, the light on Yuyi suddenly surged, forming a dazzling ball of light. People in the room were so stung that they closed their eyes. Although they closed their eyes, they could still feel that their eyes were quickly darkening.
, as if the brilliance suddenly disappeared again.
When people opened their eyes and took a look, they couldn't help but exclaimed. The gorgeous and magical feather coat was gone!
"Where is Yuyi?" Hunter Fox asked.
Li Longji jumped to the door and wanted to ask the guards guarding outside if anyone had taken advantage of everyone's eyes to close their eyes just now and snatched Yuyi away. However, before he could ask, Liehu spoke:
"No one came in, no one went out, and no one came near the three of us at all."
Li Longji believed in Xie Hu's martial arts and believed that he could pay attention to what was going on around him even in the situation just now. Li Chengqi, on the other hand, put his hand on Mingzhu's chest as soon as he discovered that Yuyi had disappeared.
After pressing it down, Li Chengqi not only took a deep breath - Mingzhu's chest had become cold in the blink of an eye.
It should be said that this kind of coldness is normal. After all, Mingzhu has been dead for a long time.
Li Chengqi murmured to himself:
"She left, taking Nishang Yuyi with her."
"Who left?" Li Longji asked puzzledly.
Li Chengqi shook his head and said nothing more, because this was a secret Mingzhu told him specifically. Now that Mingzhu is gone, he doesn't want to tell this secret to more people. So, Li Chengqi just said tiredly:
"Third brother, please arrange for Mingzhu to be buried with dignity."
Li Longji still doesn’t know what happened:
"What about Nishang Yuyi?"
Li Chengqi sighed:
"Originally, I wanted to bury Nishang Yuyi with Mingzhu, and you agreed. Now, just think that Yuyi has been accompanying Mingzhu."
"But..." Li Longji still wanted to know what happened, because something just disappeared out of thin air, which was beyond his cognitive scope. He was not used to such uncontrollable things happening in his life.
Li Chengqi interrupted him:
"I will tell you slowly what happened later. There are still a lot of things to do now. Mingzhu's funeral arrangements must be settled, and the culprit must be punished!"
Although Li Longji had many questions in his mind, it was unreasonable to always let his eldest brother hold Mingzhu's body in his arms, so he had to do what his eldest brother said first. He ordered people to take the pearl from his hand, and then ordered them
, first send the pearl to a special palace, which is specially used for memorial after the death of the concubine. Then the pearl is buried according to the princess's etiquette.
Yan hugged Mingzhu tightly until Master Zhong's voice came to his ears, and he remembered that he had been paying attention to the sudden appearance of Mingzhu and didn't even see how Master Zhong was doing. Yan felt guilty and quickly raised his head.
Turning his head, he saw Master Zhong staring at the Pearl, his face extremely tired, but his expression was filled with relief that could not be concealed.
Mingzhu also raised her head, looked around blankly, and then at Master Zhong. After a long time, she asked uncertainly:
"Uncle Zhong, is it really you, and I am in Qingcheng Mountain now? What on earth is going on?"
Master Zhong nodded, walked to the Pearl, and looked at the Pearl up and down, as if to make sure that the Pearl was intact.
I saw that the pearl had not changed at all, it was still as beautiful as ever, with extraordinary intelligence flashing between its brows and eyes. Master Zhong stretched out his hand to hold the pearl, never wanting to let go:
"Mingzhu, you are finally back. It's good to be back."
