The master said not to judge people by their appearance

When the black shadow appeared, everyone in the hall felt a coldness penetrating the bone marrow for no reason, so they all stopped and looked at the huge and hideous shadow on the wall in astonishment. It was clearly the shadow of Emperor Jianwu, but There is no trace of a human figure right now, the scarlet eyes on the shadow are simply extremely weird!

"What is this?!" Mu Qingyun was shocked.

"It must be a demon." Xie Yunlan said in a deep voice.He just subconsciously didn't think about Emperor Jianwu before. After all, who would have thought that the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year would also be possessed by a monster. Now when this shadow appeared, he immediately figured out all the reasons why Emperor Jianwu was so abnormal , And why insist on killing them.

Yuan Lang: "What demon?"

Yuan Yi: "Is it the demon you just mentioned?"

The two of them haven't reacted yet, or they haven't been able to accept that Emperor Jianwu is not only the emperor, but also their father. How could their father be the so-called demon?

The soldiers were also in a daze, not knowing how to react at this moment.

Yuan Shuo raised his sleeve robe to block the flames, and shouted violently, "Kill him quickly!"

The black shadow behind him writhed along with his voice, the fear of the soul fire in the magic pupils, and at the same time an undisguised killing intent.

Killing Xie Yunlan was just to cover up, the only person he really wanted to kill tonight was Shen Fan.

The soldiers looked at each other, and their submission to the emperor was almost engraved in their bones. Even though there was such a distorted shadow behind the current Emperor Jianwu, some people still raised their weapons again.

Seeing that they were about to fight again, Xie Yunlan yelled: "Look carefully, this is not Your Majesty, this is a fake pretended by a monster!"

He looked at the crown prince and the second prince. While Yuan Lang was still hesitating, Yuan Yi changed his mind and immediately said: "Yes, this is not the father! It's a monster!"

"All officers and men listen to the order!" Xie Yunlan held up his sword, "Follow me to drive away the evil spirits and rescue Your Majesty!"

With Xie Yunlan's prestige, coupled with these firm and powerful words, he immediately gave the soldiers who didn't know what to do what to do. They all responded in unison: "Yes!"

For a while, the spearhead was turned, and Emperor Jianwu, who was sitting on the couch, became a loner.

He looked at the crowd coldly, and suddenly put down the sleeve robe that had been covering the light. He was really afraid of the soul fire, but the fire light alone couldn't hurt him.

Yuan Shuo stood up, his figure was tall and stalwart, he was no longer sick and old, just like a real emperor who ruled the world!

"Just relying on you, how can you win me?" There was a contemptuous sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Xie Yunlan frowned, and winked at Shen Fan, Shen Fan didn't pay attention, but he has been doing what Xie Yunlan wanted him to do, to prevent the evil energy of the inner demon from dispersing, and to give birth to those who have not yet been born. The demon fetus.

But... What Yuan Shuo wants to do now is not to give birth to unborn demon fetuses.

Xie Yunlan suddenly felt a shock, as if a large army was running over the ground, but where did the army come from at this moment, and the footsteps didn't sound like people... Xie Yunlan turned around suddenly, just in time to see the pair approaching from a distance in the dark night outside the hall Scarlet animal eyes.

There are a lot of them, not more than two hundred. Xie Yunlan took a rough scan and found thousands, even tens of thousands!

"How come there are so many monsters?!" Mu Qingyun was shocked.

Xie Yunlan's thoughts turned, he suddenly looked not far away, that was the direction of Linxian Pavilion, and also the direction from which the monster came, he murmured: "It's those thousand maids..."

When Yuan Shuo renamed Wanglong Pagoda as Linxian Pavilion at the beginning of the year, he chose a thousand beautiful women to enter it to wait for the immortals to come.

"Hahaha——" Yuan Shuo let out a huge and terrifying laugh, the sound was like a drum, shaking everyone's eardrums.

"Fight for me! My brave and fearless soldiers!" He opened his arms to welcome his army, his eyes turned scarlet like a monster.

The black shadow behind him soared at the same time, several black qi gushed out from him, and the devilish qi surged like a hurricane, knocking the nearby eunuchs and maids to the ground, Yuan Lang and Yuan Yi were not spared either, Yuan Shuo didn't care about it at all Father-son relationship, only Shen Fan remained unmoved in the storm of demonic energy, and the dim candle in his hand was like a magic needle that fixed the sea at this moment, and all the demonic energy was melted under the firelight.

But... for this huge and terrifying demonic energy, this candle is too weak after all. For the first time, this invincible soul fire showed its decline. It can almost only cover Shen Fan's whole body.

Yuan Shuo took advantage of the victory and pursued him. He pointed at Wan Yao and ordered, "Kill him!"

The monster surged forward frantically, and all the eyes of the beast locked onto one person——Shen Fan.

"Let's go!" Xie Yunlan made a decisive decision. The Yulin army here has just passed a thousand, and it is by no means an opponent of the demon army!

"Qingyun, protect the two Highnesses!" He commanded everyone, while he ran to Shen Fan's side, pulled him and said, "Let's go first!"

Shen Fan looked at the huge black shadow behind Yuan Shuo and didn't respond.

Regardless of whether he should or not, Xie Yunlan directly dragged him away. A group of people rushed out of the hall, but Yuan Shuo did not pursue them. He looked at them coldly, like looking at prey that could not escape.

There are demons outside the bedroom, not even limited to this place, the entire Weiyang Palace fell in the dark, this majestic and magnificent imperial city during the day has become a den of thousands of demons in the blink of an eye.

"Too many!" Mu Qingyun looked at the monster army that was approaching in front of him.

"Run to the palace gate!" Xie Yunlan shouted.

It is impossible for these people to fight against the demon army, so they can only run away!

But it may not be possible to escape, the monster saw them running towards the palace gate, and immediately turned around and chased after them.

A few court ladies and eunuchs ran a few steps slower and were overtaken by the demon army. They were immediately thrown to the ground by four or five monsters and let out a heart-piercing howl. After a while, the sound disappeared. Xie Yunlan looked back , the few people who were still alive just now have become torn corpses, being bitten by monsters.

Yuan Lang and Yuan Yi also saw this scene, their faces turned pale with fright, what kind of terrible things did their father raise.

They usually pampered themselves, they didn't dare to complain about suffering or tiredness at this moment, they ran forward desperately with everyone, just now they could see that Yuan Shuo didn't care about his son's life or death at all.

But even so, the monster was getting closer and closer to them, and the running speed of humans could not be compared with that of beasts.

"Brother, they are about to catch up!" Mu Qingyun said anxiously.

Xie Yunlan weighed for a moment, and quickly made a decision: "You continue to move forward, leave the city directly along Anmen Street from the east gate after leaving the palace, Qingyun, protect the two highnesses, and send the defenders outside the city back to support!"

After he finished speaking, he led Shen Fan to turn around, the others ran east, while they headed south, Yuan Shuo only gave an order to the demon army to kill Shen Fan, he didn't care about the lives of the others, It is not the target of the demon army, so as long as Shen Fan is separated from the crowd, these people will be safe for the time being.

"Brother, what about you!" Mu Qingyun turned around and said.

"We'll find a chance to join you! Let's go first!" Xie Yunlan's voice became farther and farther away. He had already led Shen Fan away from the crowd, and the demon army turned around as expected, and came straight to Shen Fan.

The distance between the two sides is shortening, and running separately will not change their disadvantage in speed. Xie Yunlan thought quickly, and suddenly saw the tall palace gate in front of him, thinking that it should be able to stop the monster for a while, so he ran over with Shen Fan.

"Keep running, don't stop!" Xie Yunlan yelled at Shen Fan, but she stopped herself and turned to face the surging monster group.

He pressed on one side of the palace door with both hands. Normally, three or four people would need to push together to push this thick palace door about three feet high. The man pushed it, and after he closed one, he didn't care about resting, and then went to close the other one, and managed to close the palace gate before the fastest monster arrived.

Xie Yunlan fastened the door latch, and listening to the fierce knocking sound behind the door, she knew that the door would not last long, and immediately prepared to chase Shen Fan in front, but when she glanced away, she found that Shen Fan hadn't left at all, and had been standing by him all the time. beside.

"Why didn't you leave?" Xie Yunlan asked in surprise, could it be that Shen Fan was waiting for him?

"Tired." Shen Fan said.

Xie Yunlan: "..."

"Hold on!" Xie Yunlan said with a headache.

It's really not easy tonight, with another night raid on the Temple of Longevity, being escorted back to the capital, and now running for his life, Xie Yunlan feels tired, but if he stops at this moment, he will die!

Shen Fan's soul fire did not guarantee that he would be safe and sound in the siege of thousands of armies. After being hit by Yuan Shuo's devilish energy, the flame shrunk significantly to the naked eye. It looked a little weak, as if it would go out in an instant.

Xie Yunlan dragged Shen Fan forward and continued to run forward. He wanted to find a means of transportation, not only for Shen Fan, but because they could not run with two legs after all, and they would still be caught up after the palace gate was broken. , have to find a horse.

Where are the horses... Xie Yunlan quickly recalled the topographic map of Weiyang Palace. He knew that there were horses parked at the north gate they entered the palace, but it was too far away. They are now in the south of Weiyang Palace, near Cangchi, Cangchi ... with it!Xie Yunlan suddenly remembered that a few days ago someone paid tribute to several famous Dawan horses, each of which was a steed capable of traveling thousands of miles a day. Emperor Jianwu was a good horse all his life, and those Dawan horses seem to be kept in the stables next to Cangchi now middle.

He wasn't sure, but now he could only take a gamble.

He took Shen Fan to run towards the stables, and on the way he heard a loud noise from behind, the sound of the palace gate collapsing, and a group of monsters stepped on the collapsed palace gate, chasing after him.

"Can you ride a horse?" Xie Yunlan asked while running.

Since the first emperor implemented the horse policy, almost all the people in Daxia have raised horses, and now they are the most common means of transportation. Coupled with the country's customs and martial arts, it is normal for grown men to be able to ride horses, and it is not normal if they can't. If it were someone else, Xie Yunlan would never have asked this question, but Shen Fan...

Shen Fan really said: "No."

"How do you usually go out?" Even though the timing was not right, Xie Yunlan couldn't help asking, could it be that you always find someone to carry the sedan chair?

"I usually don't go out." Shen Fan said.

Xie Yunlan: "..."

What a little princess who doesn't leave the door.

While talking, they had already run to the stables. This time they were lucky, the Dawan foals were all there, and the saddles were still on their bodies. I don't know if they hadn't had time to unload them or were preparing to ride out to let the wind go, but no one could. Answered, after the monster appeared, the Weiyang palace was in chaos, the palace people fled in all directions, the official in charge of the stables probably also ran away after hearing the movement, only the Dawan horses pawed their hoofs restlessly in place.

They sensed the danger, but they were held by the reins and could not escape.

Xie Yunlan opened the stable door, cut off the tied reins, and let the horses go away by themselves. At the same time, he picked the tallest and strongest horse among them.

He turned over and rode on the horse, tightened the reins and exerted strength on the horns of the restless horse, and patted the back to comfort him once or twice, and the horse was quickly tamed.

Xie Yunlan stretched out his hand towards Shen Fan: "Come up!"

Shen Fan had never ridden a horse before, so he managed to ride up with Xie Yunlan's hand. At this time, the demon army approached them again, and Xie Yunlan shouted: "Sit tight!"

Immediately with a whip whip, Da Wanju strode forward with four hooves and galloped forward, showing smooth and muscular lines when running. In the blink of an eye, he jumped several feet away, and once again distanced himself from the demon army.

Xie Yunlan praised in his heart, this is indeed a royal horse presented as a tribute to the emperor, it is really extraordinary, it runs as fast as the wind!

Shen Fan felt completely different. It was his first time riding a horse, and he couldn't keep his balance on the horse's back. Although Xie Yunlan called to sit still, he didn't give Shen Fan time to react. If he hadn't held onto the saddle in time , you have to fall straight down.

This is just the beginning, it gets more and more bumpy after running, especially Xie Yunlan is a superb rider, and getting this BMW is like adding wings to a tiger. In order to take a shortcut, he directly steered the horse and leaped over the barricade fence, and the bumpy saddle was not enough No, Shen Fan hugged Xie Yunlan's waist.

"Too fast..." he said.

"Where is this?" Xie Yunlan smiled, and raised his whip again, Dawanju accelerated again, passed through the last palace gate in an instant, stepped on the wide street with his horseshoes, and led the beast tide running behind him. .

The group of monsters chased after them all the way, but when they reached the gate of the palace, they stopped suddenly, and the sound of the running footsteps of the beasts disappeared, and the night was silent, except for the horseshoe walking alone.

Xie Yunlan sensed something was wrong, looked back, and saw the pair of scarlet animal eyes quietly guarding the palace gate.

"Why don't they chase after?" Xie Yunlan asked strangely.

"I don't know." Shen Fan also looked back at the monster group, they stood like statues at the palace gate, as if they were guarding something.

What is more important than hunting down Shen Fan?Xie Yunlan had an ominous premonition in his heart. After thinking for a moment, he decided to continue driving forward. He wanted to go out of the city directly along the main road, meet Mu Qingyun, and then unite with the troops stationed outside the city to regain the disadvantage in numbers. Demon battle.

However, his plan is doomed to fail, Yuan Shuo has been planning for half a year, and it is not only the tens of thousands of monsters who are preparing.

While they were running, they suddenly saw several black pillars of air rising from the urban areas on both sides of the street. Xie Yunlan looked back, and there were also behind him, and they were still increasing. The black air pillars rose into the sky like a tornado, covering The light of all the stars and the moon is suppressed over the capital city.

"What is this?!" Xie Yunlan asked.

"It's the formation arranged by the Longevity Tablet." Shen Fan observed the rising directions of these black pillars of air. At this moment, he finally got a glimpse of the whole picture of the formation and its purpose, but it was too late.

Xie Yunlan had already walked near the city gate and was about to leave the city, but at this moment he stopped his horse suddenly and looked at the crowd who were also parked in front of the city gate. There were palace people who had just escaped from Weiyang Palace, and officials and civilians who ran out when they heard the movement. There are also some city defense troops. Xie Yunlan also saw Mu Qingyun and his party who should have left the city long ago. They all stopped in front of the city gate. There was a black barrier blocking the exit from the city to the outside.

Mu Qingyun said solemnly: "Brother, we can't get out!"
