Raiders White Moonlight Master

Chapter 72 Water Octopus

In the brightly lit imperial city, a young eunuch led the way with a lantern, followed by two men and two women.

Ah Shui crossed his arms in front of the man in the purple robe, "I said, Your Royal Highness, what are you going to do with us if you don't go home to sleep at night?"

Xiao Jinyan looked left and right, "Cultivator Shen didn't come?"

"Say it again, sir, he didn't come." Shan Yuan's abducting Shen Baixing overnight was the thorn in Ah Shui's heart, but Xiao Jinyan didn't have the vision to see that he had to bring it up.

Today is the third time they entered the palace, they went to Emperor Shunzheng's bedroom.Emperor Shunzheng recounted the events in his dream in detail, and Bai Chang frowned as he listened. For a king of a country, dreams are signs from heaven, and such ominous omens can only be detected by inviting immortals.In desperation, Bai Chang complied with Emperor Zheng's request and practiced divination.

Although Ling Yunzong founded the sect with the sword, divination is not the master, but Bai Chang is a monk who can hit the Nascent Soul Stage in a year or two after the Jindan Stage.But when he deduced, he encountered a bottleneck.Bai Chang's so-called divination is to force it - to open the eye of wisdom.The Dharma Eye relies on karmic reincarnation, and future events must have signs in the present, otherwise they will be false.Bai Chang used this to judge the possibility of Shunzheng Emperor's dream come true in the future. Generally speaking, the more profound a monk's mana is, the more causes he can find.

However, when Bai Chang opened his eyes, there was a layer of black mist in front of him, blocking his prying eyes.This black mist may be hidden from peeping due to a secret, or it may be caused by others.When Bai Chang spread his consciousness across half of the imperial city, apart from the spirit in the imperial garden, there was nothing unusual about him.

"Big Brother!"

Bai Chang came back to his senses, "What's the matter, Junior Sister?"

"Why are you so engrossed? You didn't hear me calling you twice."

"It's nothing."

"Xianjun, how is father's dream?"

"It will take some time to find out why."

The eunuch sent the man to the gate of the city, bent his waist and lowered his eyes, and said, "Your Highness, Second Prince, Your Majesty ordered this old servant to send you back to Hanzhang Palace to rest."

At that time, the gate of the palace was locked, but because the eunuch had the emperor's order, he was not bound by the rules of the imperial city.Seeing the badge, the imperial guards on duty immediately opened the city gate and watched Bai Chang and his fellow monks leave.

"Your Highness, the Second Prince," Ah Shui waved at Xiao Jinyan who was stopped by the eunuch, his eyes were full of joy, "I'll see you tomorrow."

But seeing His Royal Highness's arrogant temper, he pushed the eunuch away and scolded angrily: "This hall can leave as soon as it wants, who can stop it?" As he said, he rushed towards the gate of the city like the wind.

The eunuch yelled badly, with a sharp voice, "Stop it, stop it quickly! Your Majesty has ordered that His Highness the Second Prince is not allowed to leave the gate of the palace today!"

As soon as the bright yellow token of the Son of Heaven came out, the Imperial Forest Army swarmed over, trying to subdue Xiao Jinyan who had fled through the door.Don't look at Xiao Jinyan's usual rouge and gouache piles, the speed of running can't be underestimated.He rushed out of the city gate, only to be grabbed by one sleeve.

The purple robe was torn crookedly, Xiao Jinyan kicked at the imperial guards aggressively, "You stop me today, and you will have to wait to see me tomorrow!"

After all, it was the favored prince, the Yu Linjun didn't dare to offend Xiao Jinyan, so the other party pulled out his clothes and slipped away in a daze.The anxious eunuch spun around on the spot, and finally slapped his thigh with an ouch, and ran towards Emperor Shunzheng's bedroom.

On the empty long street, the lights of thousands of houses had long been extinguished, and the thick night fell on Xuandu.Ordinary people can't see their fingers, but it's not a big deal for monks, they have already developed eyes that can see at night.

Bai Chang and the others came out of the East City Gate, passed through a neighborhood and turned left into the alleyway, and they arrived at the densely populated area of ​​inns.The gold-plated restaurant plaque hangs high, and this is one of the most favored locations in the city by dignitaries.

Ah Shui held his sword and squinted at Xiao Jinyan, "Don't you have a place to live yourself? You have to run with us."

"What did you say? Just now, His Royal Highness the Second Prince called him affectionately. Before he was called soft, he revealed his nature and didn't call him His Highness?"

Ah Shui snorted lightly, "It's really easy to climb the pole with your face."

"The girl's family is young and unmarried, and she has a bad temper and can't marry a good man."

With a bang, the sword came out of its sheath, Ah Shui raised the sword across Xiao Jinyan's neck, and said gloomily, "Dare you say it again?"

Pushing the long sword back into the sheath inch by inch with his fingers, Xiao Jinyan bared his white teeth, "Don't be angry, I'm talking nonsense..." Seeing that Ah Shui's face paled, he quickly said: "You just can't get married. Let me tell you, this palace has a good heart, and for the sake of your good looks, I can give you the status of a side concubine if you can't do it!"

"Hooligan, see if I don't cut your tongue!"

Ah Shui's figure running after Xiao Jinyan disappeared around the corner.

In the night wind, the two chased and cursed one after another.

"Don't run too far, the inn is almost here!" Song Liuyan shouted at the two of them at the top of his voice.She took out the paper butterfly from her bosom, injected spiritual power, watched the paper butterfly fly up, and said, "Tell Ah Shui to come back quickly, and don't disturb the people in the middle of the night."

The white butterfly quickly blended into the night. After a cup of tea, neither the butterfly nor Ah Shui came back.Song Liuyan was about to go out to search, when there was a bang at the end of the street, she approached with a sword, "Who?"

A man with half of his body covered in blood crawled out, his voice full of fear: "Miss Song, I scared this hall to death, scared people to death... Ugh, this hall almost died."

Song Liuyan's ears hurt from Xiao Jinyan's screaming and howling. She impatiently lifted Xiao Jinyan's collar, and asked coldly, "Why did you make this look by yourself? Where is Ah Shui?"

Pointing to the back with trembling fingers, "We met a man of high cultivation, Ah Ah Shui let me go first."

"The blood on your body is Ah Shui's?"

"No, no."

Song Liuyan was too lazy to talk nonsense with Xiao Jin, threw the second prince with weak legs on the ground, and chased in the direction the other party pointed just now.Before leaving, she used the sound transmission technique to inform Bai Chang to come over quickly. After all, Ah Shui Linggen is top-grade, and ten years of cultivation is enough to make her stand shoulder to shoulder with Song Liuyan.To capture such an enemy, Bai Chang is indispensable.

Xiao Jinyan, who was left on the spot, looked at the pitch-black surroundings, her scalp was numb and her hairs were standing on end, she stumbled up and chased after Song Liuyan, shouting while running, "Miss Song, wait a minute, this hall is scared alone!"

A mist shrouded the corner of Xuandu City like smoke, Xiao Jinyan did not catch up with Song Liuyan, but Bai Chang, who was killed halfway, was flying in the air with his collar.He was so frightened that he yelled again, Bai Chang's forehead twitched, and he deeply felt how Xiao Jinyan's temperament survived in the palace.

In a few breaths, they came to the tall city tower.The soldiers on the high wall were vigilant when they heard the sound, "Who?!"

But seeing that Bai Chang didn't blink, he jumped out of the tall building and chased along the direction of the moat.

The water vapor diffused from the river surface, covering the eyes of the people on board, and looking out from the window, it was impossible to tell where they were.A valuable painting boat was floating on the river, as if it had lost its momentum and was only sliding by the current.

The singing, dancing and music continued. Hu Ji, who came from the Western Regions, was wearing a revealing dance dress, and her slender and white waist was twisting in the crowd, which made the eyes of the young master behind the long table straighten, and Meng Lang rushed over.Smiling and soft words filled the room, and floated along the painted boat to the river bank.

In the entire river, only this lighted ship remained, black and cold like a lone guest lost in the ocean, instinctively rushing towards the light source.

On the second floor with the doors and windows closed, Shen Baixing slept soundly in Shan Yuan's arms, and the lion cat curled up at the corner of the bed, motionless.A crisp bell came from a distance, although there was only a faint sound left, it woke up the sleeping Shan Yuan.

He suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and sat down on the bed, and carefully tucked the quilt up for Shen Baixing.Fingers slowly opened the window, and glanced out along the gap, but saw the entire river was completely white.Shan Yuan squinted his eyes and looked down the boat, vaguely seeing a large black mass swimming in the water.

He opened the door and went down the stairs, found the rich young man who was having fun, and asked, "Why hasn't the boat arrived at Xuandu City yet?"

The rich man was so busy enjoying the beauty's favor that he never heard Shan Yuan's words.

Without saying a word, Shan Yuan poured the other party's head with the jug.

"Which bastard dares to pour wine on the young master?!"

"Me." Shan Yuan said indifferently, he lifted the young master's chin with the tip of his sword, his face expressionless, "I'll ask one last time, why hasn't the boat landed yet?"

"The immortal calms down, I'll just ask."

After a while, Brother Young Master brought the boatman over, but when he saw the latter kneeling on the ground, he was so frightened that he froze and stammered, "This boat should have landed a long time ago, but..." He glanced at Shan Yuan and swallowed deeply. Spit, "I don't know the specific reason, could it be a ghost hitting the wall?"

Hearing that there was a ghost, the Young Master was so frightened that he leaned towards Shan Yuan. After looking around for nothing, he kicked the boatman down, "Where is the ghost under the emperor's feet? If you dare to scare me, see if I don't beat you to death today!"

Shan Yuan was not interested in taking care of other people's family affairs, so he put the begging and scolding behind him.The smell of rouge and gouache all over the room made him frown. Just as he opened the window a little bit to breathe in, there was a rattling sound blowing into his ears along the night wind.

The rich young man stopped beating up, and Yingying and Yanyan also stopped whispering.In the middle of the night, apart from the sound of things climbing outside the boat, there was only the sound of breathing and lights blowing, and a strong uneasiness lingered above my head.

The vase placed on the high platform fell to the ground with a bang and fell to pieces, making people jump.The rich young man didn't stand still and staggered a step, and said to the people behind him, "Why are you messing around with your hands and feet?!"

The dancer who was pointed at quickly waved her hand, "Young master is not me."

"Who else could it be if it wasn't you? Could it be that the vase broke with its own long legs? This young master wants to rush forward?!"

Shan Yuan glanced at Young Master Brother, successfully shut up the other party, and calmly said: "The boat is moving."

"What's so strange about moving... Ah!" Halfway through the words, the ship shook more violently, and the sound of rubbing the ship's hull outside the window became even more painful, and everyone in the room fell to the ground except Shan Yuan.

The rotten, salty smell seeped into the nostrils, making people nauseous.The candle flame danced, but a twisted and sticky black shadow appeared on the papered window.

The hissing sound frightened all the singing girls to hide under the long table.Like lightning, the long sword pierced through the window with a swish and plunged into the shadows.When Po Yan broke down, he brought back a group of strange-shaped green monsters with eight claws.

"Water octopus." Shan Yuan recognized this thing at a glance. It is a creature uglier than a serious octopus, and likes to hide in the dark lake water.

The river leading to Xuandu City has dragon veins, and there should be no such creatures as water octopuses, unless they are no longer in the original river.

A bold and curious servant pushed open the window, his scalp was numb from the body of the boat covered with water octopuses, he screamed and fell to the ground to hide in Shan Yuan's side, and shouted: "Xianjun Xianjun, there are still people outside!" many!"

Seeing that he was about to break through the window, Shan Yuan moved his finger, and the Poyan sword turned into a streamer and sprayed out black flames, crushing the water octopus into fly ash.

The boat stopped moving, and everyone was stunned for a few breaths and burst into cheerful laughter.The laughter spread to the second floor, even Shen Baixing couldn't hold it back, felt the white silk in the dark, and tied it on his eyes casually.He took off the cloak hanging on the screen, and without carefully checking whose it belonged to, he opened the door and went down the stairs.

From the second floor to the first floor, there must be a corridor in the middle. As soon as Shen Baixing took a step, he felt that the texture of the soles was not right.He slowly retracted his feet and squinted his eyes to look at the ground.

But I saw that the corridor was crowded with dense water octopuses, and the turquoise color was wrapped around the beams, like a moldy house.

Shen Baixing: "..."

He just went downstairs. As for seeing so many ugly things? !Goosebumps appeared on his arms, Shen Baixing took a deep breath and shouted: "Shan Yuan!"
