The melodious sound of the reed floated in the Moon God Palace, and the thunderous drumbeats sounded intensively. Hundreds of moon worshipers were performing some kind of mysterious dance along with some strange rhythm.
On the sacrificial platform, Moon Worshiper had long hair shawl and wore a black robe. Standing on a totem that looked like a half-moon, he opened his arms as if to embrace the moon. At the same time, his lips moved.
, chanting some obscure and ancient spell rhythm, his figure, illuminated by the silvery afterglow of the moonlight, looked like a god under the moon.
Xiyue Festival, it is said that this day is the birthday of the moon god. As the high priest of Nanzhao Kingdom, Baiyue will send his moon worshipers to perform mysterious and mysterious dances on this day.
Perform ritual sacrifices to pray to the moon god for magic and divine help.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew outside the palace of the Moon God Palace, the moon shadow dimmed, and birds and beasts howled, making it look sad and gloomy.
Along with the chanting of worshiping the moon, a huge dim beam of light suddenly dropped from the back of the half-moon in the sky and merged into the moon totem of the Moon God Palace.
It was like a dark black veil shrouding the Half Moon Totem, instantly filled with dark energy, causing waves, flowing erratically, and undercurrents surging, making it appear dark and strange.
Such a scene naturally attracted the attention of many people in Nanzhao. When they saw this scene, they were all surprised.
"Look, the moon god appears."
"In the new year, the moon god will bring us more blessings."
"The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult is mighty!"
At this time, there were even many devout believers who knelt down in the street facing the direction of the moon and silently recited prayers, as if this was the only way to express their reverence for the moon god.
…
…
After this kind of ceremony lasted for more than two hours, the dark pillar of light in the sky slowly shrank, and finally collapsed. Echoing each other, the half-moon totem on the ground
The dark light was strong, the wind was howling, and the thunder and lightning were intertwined, as if it contained a majestic magic power, and finally it dissipated.
After the ceremony, Baiyue's face became a little pale due to the overdraft of his mana, and dense beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. He waved his hand, dismissed the believers in the palace, and walked to Yue
On the star throne, he lay slightly, supporting his head with one hand, pretending to be asleep and resting his mind.
After the figures dispersed, the Moon God Palace suddenly seemed deserted, with only one leader of the cult remaining kneeling on the ground, looking hesitant.
"Is there anything else?" Baiyue asked without opening her eyes.
"Master, this disciple has something to report. Li Xiao has been very active in recent days. Not only did he give a pill to the Witch King to help him rejuvenate, but he also became the princess' master. Many ministers came to see him.
He is so powerful, people say..." The other party looked hesitant, as if he was hesitant to speak.
"What did you say?!" Baiyue frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"They... they all said that Li Xiao's limelight has overshadowed your cult leader..." the cult leader said hesitantly.
"How outrageous!" Baiyue suddenly opened his eyes with a sinister look, slapped the handrail, stood up, and said angrily: "It's ridiculous, how can the light of this firefly compete with the bright moon!"
Suddenly, a strong evil aura rose up from Baiyue's body, as if it were real. His scorching gaze made the leader of the cult unable to breathe.
Decades ago, Baiyue single-handedly founded the Moon Worship Sect. The Moon Worship Sect does not belong to any school. It combines the magic techniques from the Western Regions and Japan and the witchcraft of the Miao Territory. The moon is the highest god.
Spread in the land of Nanzhao, there are countless believers and the power is very huge, and as the leader of the cult, Bai Yue, his number is lower than that of ten thousand people.
In Baiyue's view, the Witch King was just a puppet emperor and was not taken seriously.
In the whole world, the only one who can surpass him is the Moon God in the sky, and the Taoist priest Li Xiao from the Central Plains is not a problem. However, in just a few days, the other party was so popular that he actually
If there is a situation that surpasses him, how can he not be angry in his heart.
…
…
"Leader, these are the words of some nefarious people." Under Baiyue's rage, the leader of the cult couldn't help but change his face, and hurriedly explained.
At this time, Baiyue seemed to have realized his gaffe, snorted coldly, and sat back on the chair. His fierce eyes were slightly lowered, and then turned into a look of compassion.
The leader of the cultists in the hall could only feel the murderous aura on his shoulders fading away like a tide. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and his palms were already covered with sweat.
"In this whole world, who doesn't know that the leader can cover the sky with one hand?" The leader of the cult slowly raised his head with a smile on his face, and then he put his hand on his neck and made a gesture of wiping his neck: "The words Li Xiao keeps are always a disaster.
, not as good as us..."
Baiyue narrowed her eyes, and after pondering for a moment, she couldn't help but shook her head and said, "If I wanted to kill Li Xiao, I would have done it long ago. Killing him would be the same as killing a bed bug. I'm just worried.
It's not him, but the Witch Queen in the Nanzhao Imperial Palace."
"Witch Queen?" the leader of the cult asked in confusion.
Baiyue nodded, with a hint of fear flashing in his eyes: "The original name of the Witch Queen is Lin Qing'er, she is the daughter of Lin Yeping (the previous life of Xu Changqing from Sword Three) and Zixuan, and she is from the Nuwa tribe
The descendants of Li Xiao have spiritual power that is not weaker than mine. It is the right time for Li Xiao to gain power. If I take action, it will surely affect the whole body."
As the leader of the Yue Worship Sect, the ambitious Bai Yue had long had the idea of killing Li Xiao, but he was even more scheming and naturally understood the stakes involved.
"I see, the identity of this Witch Queen is not trivial, and she is also very powerful. It's not easy to deal with her." The leader of the cult said solemnly.
"Even though the Witch Queen is powerful, everyone has their weaknesses, and the Witch Queen is no exception. I am just waiting for an opportunity." Baiyue slowly raised his head and stared at the top of the sky.
Under the bright moon, a sinister look flashed in his eyes, as if he was holding a pearl of wisdom.
…
…
In the Nanzhao Palace, the Witch King and his family took a short rest after having dinner.
"Father, this is the scroll that Ling'er just completed."
After dinner, Zhao Ling'er couldn't wait to hand a newly completed painting into the hands of her father, the Witch King, and then leaned obediently into the Witch King's arms.
"Ling'er has made a new painting." The Witch King looked at Ling'er with a look of doting on his face. He took the scroll from Ling'er's hand and began to appreciate it leisurely, but the Witch King didn't want to look at it.
At this glance, his eyes were attracted like a magnet. He nodded repeatedly and praised it endlessly: "What a beautiful picture!"
What is in front of you is a landscape painting, which not only depicts the steepness of the mountain peaks, but also the softness of the flowing lakes, and even the animals such as tigers and elk are painted very vividly and lifelike, which can be said to be both physical and spiritual.
Yes, looking at such a picture scroll, it feels like you are really immersed in it.
Beside them, there is a mature and beautiful woman. This woman is gentle and intellectual, and exudes the aura of a noble queen in her every move.
When the Witch Queen brewed a cup of warm tea and placed it on the table in front of the Witch King, she turned her head sideways and also cast her gaze on the scroll. She also nodded unequivocally, without saying a word.
Don't hide the admiration in your eyes.
The Empress Wu had naturally seen Ling'er's previous paintings. Although the depictions were very vivid, they lacked an artistic conception. But when I look at this painting again today, it is not only vivid, but also has more soul.
It seems like a miniature landscape appears on the paper, and people are instantly attracted by the scene in the scroll.
"Ling'er, why have your painting skills improved so much?" asked the Witch Queen.
Zhao Ling'er jumped up and took the Witch Queen's hand, and said excitedly: "Because Master Li has been teaching me painting skills these days. He taught me that everything has spirituality, and painting is to combine their most spiritual aspects.
Let it fall on the rice paper.
As he spoke, Zhao Ling'er put her hands behind her back, muttered, raised her white jade neck, and paced back and forth in front of the table.
Ling'er imitated Li Xiao's expression when he was teaching her, and she also had the look of a young adult, which made both the Witch King and the Witch Queen laugh heartily, and the hearty laughter could be heard in the dormitory.
Swing out.
"By the way, the king's complexion has become more and more rosy recently." The Witch Queen inadvertently noticed the change in the Witch King's complexion and said in surprise.
"Qing'er has noticed it, right? Recently, I took an elixir given by Master Alchemist. I immediately felt full of energy and blood, full of energy, and my whole body seemed to be filled with endless vitality. It was very...
I feel so comfortable. It seems that the power of this elixir of immortality has taken effect. One day, I will ask the master alchemist for two more elixirs of immortality, so that both Qing'er and Ling'er can become immortal." The Witch King said
He stroked his beard on his chin and said with a smile.
In recent days, the Witch King was also surprised to find that after taking the elixir of life, his whole body became more energetic and energetic, as if he was ten years younger, and even handled affairs more easily.
"This Master Alchemist is really extraordinary. Not only is he proficient in medical skills and alchemy, but he is also very good at painting. He is truly an amazing master!" After hearing this, the Witch Queen's eyes flashed with brilliance.
: "With the help of such an expert, why should I, Nanzhao, not become stronger?"
"Yes, Lord Alchemist is indeed a master." The Witch King nodded with deep understanding, and then he said with great interest: "Ling'er was able to worship him as his teacher, and I was able to relieve his physical weakness.
Worry, it can be said that good things come one after another. There is also a lot of realgar wine unique to the Central Plains stored in the wine cellar. This is a rare opportunity, so I will ask someone to get it. Why don't we take this opportunity to have a drink? "
When she heard the words "realgar wine", the Witch Queen's body trembled slightly, a strange look flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, Qing'er has been slightly ill recently, so I'm afraid she doesn't have a good taste.
It’s a fine wine.”
"Ah, is Qing'er okay?" the Witch King asked worriedly.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It doesn't matter. I just need to practice quietly for a few days... If there is nothing else, Qing'er will go back to the palace to rest." The Witch bowed to the Witch King apologetically, and then took Ling's hand.
I took my son's hand and prepared to leave together.
"Mom, can I taste the taste of that realgar wine?" Zhao Ling'er blinked and seemed to be pleading. It is said that this realgar wine is unique to the Central Plains, so she also wanted to taste it.
"What nonsense? How can a child drink? It's getting late. It's time to go back to Yingyue Palace and rest." The Witch Queen was slightly angry at Ling'er, and took her out of the dormitory without giving Ling'er a chance to struggle.
Return to Yingyue Palace.
Seeing this situation, the Witch King frowned slightly. He didn't know why. He always felt that something was wrong with the Witch Queen today, but he didn't know the specific reason.
…
…
Li Xiao naturally didn't know about these things. At this time, he was still refining elixirs in the Alchemist's Mansion. With the majestic fire spiritual energy contained in the fire spirit beads and the fine medicinal materials presented by many ministers,
In the past few days, Li Xiao has released several more elixirs of life.
