The name of this village is good, but it is a relatively poor village in the capital, with a total of sixty or seventy households. It was late at night, and the streets were quiet. Only the watchman was holding a lantern and beating the gong. The lights were dim and you could see
Most of the people have gone to bed, but occasionally a few are still staying up late to weave.
A house in a narrow and long alley seemed to have turned off the fire. Inside there was a house with nothing but a straw mat and a person sitting cross-legged.
This man's face was sallow, his lips were black, he was more than ten years older than before, and he vomited blood from time to time. He was none other than Gui Junxi, who had escaped from Prince Lu's palace.
He was now in the underground of an ordinary house, it was pitch dark, but his eyes were like will-o'-the-wisps, shining with unwilling anger in the darkness.
Lost?
Seeing King Lu doing well and hoping to win the final victory, he fell short. How could he not be heartbroken?
But all he can do is to escape here, like a mouse in the dark, not even daring to show his face.
Due to the backlash, his cultivation level has been greatly reduced and he has to treat himself. A bronze mirror is placed in front of him. As long as he lowers his head, he can see the scene inside the bronze mirror. At this time, what appears in the bronze mirror is the secret outdoor courtyard.
, relying on it, Gui Junxi can feel at ease.
Suddenly, his slightly lowered eyes turned cold: "Who?"
No one answered in the secret room. Gui Junxi was not fooled. He sneered and reached out to poke the bronze mirror.
There was a "poof", and the water rippled in the bronze mirror, revealing the figure of a woman. Her raven hair was scattered, her robe was broken and bloody, her face was even more ugly, and she looked quite embarrassed.
"It turns out it's you, Empress of the Three Holes." Gui Junxi's pupils shrank, she coughed, and sneered: "Why did you become such a mess?"
"And, are you still showing yourself here?"
It was obvious that he knew Empress Sandong, and he was wary and surprised.
Empress Sandong was poked by him just now, and now her face was stepped on again. She said angrily: "Aren't you also a lost dog?"
"As for the manifestation, hey, the gate of heaven has opened, and it is getting easier and easier to manifest the saint, but you may not have the opportunity to enjoy it."
Listening to her sarcastic words, Gui Junxi's face was slightly cold. She didn't have much respect for the Three-hole Empress. Moreover, she looked embarrassed. It was obvious that she had suffered a big loss and she dared to make fun of herself.
"I heard that this woman was originally a prostitute in a brothel. By chance, she received incest in the previous dynasty. But now, not many people know her true identity."
"Looking at her appearance now, she may be in good spirits."
"If I can capture her, I may be able to make up for my losses." Thinking of this, Gui Junxi's eyes dimmed, and there was also some greed in her eyes as she looked at the Empress of Three Holes in the mirror.
Empress Sandong seemed to be aware of something, and just when she was about to say something, a burst of gongs suddenly sounded outside, and the sound came from far away, making the two "people" with ulterior motives hold their breath and stop.
"The government ordered the closure of Shuiyun Temple"
Bang!
"Define Sandong Empress as the Evil God"
Bang!
"People are not allowed to worship without authorization."
Bang!
"The offender is guilty"
Bang!
"The government has an order to capture the demon Gui Junxi"
Bang!
"Report will be rewarded"
…
The watchman banged the gong, shouted, and shouted something that stunned the two "people" in the secret room, and then both of them had distorted and ferocious expressions.
After a long time, the person who was waiting for the clock passed far away, and his voice gradually faded away. Empress Sandong was silent for a while and said: "Join forces?"
Thinking of his current situation and his completely ruined future, Gui Junxi wiped the blood that had just spilled from the corner of his mouth and responded: "Join hands."
Outside Beijing·Xinpingguan
The rain hits the flower branches, and the shadows of the branches are slightly swaying. The corridor folds through the rockery and the channel, and the moon sheds quiet light through the black clouds. It was windy and thunderous just now, and many maids in Taoist robes did not dare to come out. At this time, the rain has lightened, and the maids
I couldn't sleep for a while, so I opened the doors and windows to let some air in, and gathered in small groups to enjoy the cool air in the corridor at the door, shaking their fans and talking quietly.
In an elegant room, Zhou Yao, who is staying temporarily, is sitting cross-legged on the bed. In the darkness, a woman stands two steps away from each other. Although they have different appearances, they have a very similar feeling. They are obviously not the same person.
The faces, standing opposite each other at this time, look like they are looking in a mirror.
"What a pity!" The woman opposite sighed, and this soft sigh successfully made Zhou Yao feel cold.
Zhou Yao's character is not impulsive and irritable. At this time, she couldn't help but ask: "Do you have an explanation for what happened in Dragon Palace just now? Tell me, what did you want to do just now?"
If she hadn't been interrupted suddenly, could she have planned to do something to Qinglong?
Zhou Yao's dissatisfaction was mainly due to the fact that this incident was beyond her expectation, making her feel like things were out of control. Also, it was Qinglong who gave her a strange feeling, which made her feel familiar, but she still couldn't remember it.
I remember when I saw this dragon.
The woman looked up at her, looked at it, and suddenly smiled: "Hey, what are you afraid of? I don't plan to do anything to it, I just want to revive it."
"resurrection?"
This word touched Zhou Yao's sensitivity even more. She opened her eyes wide and looked cold. Although the woman said every day that she and she were one, Zhou Yao didn't feel that she and he were the same person. Nothing else.
Talking and thinking are different.
"Did she lie to me?"
The woman seemed unaware of it and said with regret: "Yes, as long as it agrees, I can be resurrected, even if... I am already dead."
"Resurrection..." Zhou Yao muttered the word softly and said, "Didn't you say that I am your reincarnation? Since I am your reincarnation, why do you need to be resurrected?"
"Yes, you are my reincarnation. This is indeed true, but..."
The woman looked lovingly at Zhou Yao's face in front of her. As her cultivation level gradually increased, Zhou Yao's appearance became more and more beautiful, and she almost no longer looked like a human being. Zhou Yao herself can be said to be a beauty, but recently her appearance has become more and more beautiful.
In fact, the facial features have not changed much, but they have changed a little, and they appear perfect, with not a single flaw visible.
The temperament is also gradually transformed. Just this continuous improvement can turn an ordinary woman into a beauty. If she is a beauty, she will develop into a fairy.
Such a face is almost the same as it was in the previous life.
Unfortunately, even so, there is still a huge difference in cultivation.
The woman was still looking at her, looking at her eyes with tenderness: "...But you are still a human being. If you are really resurrected, you may regain your status. Don't you want to feel how to step into the path of the gods so freely?
hapiness?"
The woman sighed: "If you have experienced strength, you will no longer be willing to be weak now..."
"Especially now, the gate of heaven has been opened, the broken ones need to be repaired, and the weak ones need to become strong. Do you know that in our world, there is no so-called immortal at all, let alone immortality."
"I read the "Biography of Immortals" and it said that seventy people became immortals by eating precious jade, stone marrow, or pine nuts, and they all became immortals." Zhou Yao listened and pressed the Taoist sutra.
, she has read a lot recently: "Are these all wrong?"
