I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 913 The storm is coming

"Qingqing, don't let your imagination run wild. Even though the world is in turmoil right now, this place is still a safe place."

On a sunny day, Song Mu was basking in the sun with Gu Qingqing in a small courtyard in Shiyang County.

However, in January, due to Wen Chao's successive actions, there were many frictions between the border troops and the demon tribe. During this period, there were also news that several university scholars had died, which shocked the court and the public. But strangely, the actions of the demon tribe had not intensified.

The two sides fought back and forth, and a war that should have been extremely intense seemed to be dying down.

But beneath the calm surface, undercurrents are surging.

The great scholars of the Wen Dynasty and the top fighters of the demon clan have fought on the Cliff of Nothingness several times. This is the first time that the disciples of the Poetry and Ci schools of the Wen Dynasty have been incorporated into the border troops in the form of a military formation to fight.

In some places where the border troops were too busy to take care of them, there were even incidents of ordinary people attacking and killing demons.

Just yesterday, Song Mu received a hurried report from a clan member that the old grandfather was seriously ill and was on his deathbed.

At the same time, a secret report came from Wen Dynasty that the Northwestern demon tribe, Lao Niu, had left its nest and swept across two border states. Two great scholars had fought against them but were defeated, and they urgently needed reinforcements from great scholars.

Song Mu suppressed his emotions and came to Shiyang City. He sent two streams of literary power to Song Liangda, but they were still useless.

For a while, there was constant sobbing in the courtyard. Gu Qingqing, perhaps because she was feeling sad, also couldn't stop crying.

So Song Mu took Gu Qingqing to the villa to relieve his emotions and to take care of some household affairs.

Gu Qingqing is now in her twilight years, her black hair has turned white and her face has aged.

"Husband, when my grandfather passed away, I wasn't so sad, but I don't know why, today, today I just can't control myself."

Song Mu held Gu Qingqing in his arms. He wanted to say something but just hugged her tightly.

Gu Qingqing buried her head in Song Mu's arms and suddenly asked.

"My dear, if I die one day, please don't be sad."

Song Mu was suddenly startled when he heard this, and lowered his head to look at Gu Qingqing, who just spoke in a gentle voice.

"I have children and grandchildren around me in this life, and I have a husband to accompany me. We are a couple made in heaven. As the ancients said, to share a bed with someone for a lifetime is a blessing for a thousand generations..."

As Gu Qingqing said this, her grip around Song Mu tightened a little.

Song Mu naturally understood Gu Qingqing's intention at this moment. With the world in turmoil, he had to face the demon clan head-on.

Maybe it will be a long time, maybe we will never meet again.

The general died on the battlefield and the beauty turned into bones.

Gu Qingqing had already anticipated the possible situation that might happen next. Although she had been separated from Song Mu many times, she still felt reluctant to let him go. At this moment, she only expressed her feelings through the matter of Song Liangda.

Song Mu was speechless and could only hold Gu Qingqing tightly. At this moment, he suddenly heard a noise from the next yard and someone was calling his name. He suddenly let go and hurried into the yard with Gu Qingqing.

Song Mu walked into the house. Song Liangda was lying on the bed. His face was pale and he just stretched out a hand and looked around randomly.

It wasn't until Song Mu held his hand that he reluctantly opened his eyes.

"Brother Mu..."

"Second uncle..."

"Brother Mu, I, your second uncle, have no regrets in this life."

"Just if you want to return safely, your uncle and I...will be waiting for you together with your father."

After he finished speaking, Song Liangda suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Song Mu, as if he wanted to imprint Song Mu's face deeply in his eyes.

In just a moment, the light in his eyes gradually disappeared, and the hand holding Song Mu suddenly loosened.

Song Mu paused and was silent for a moment, but the next moment there was a loud cry beside him, which spread from the yard.

Just as Song Liangda was leaving, Yan Fu also walked into the courtyard with an extremely heavy expression on his face.

"The court reported that the Black Dragon King appeared, bringing with him millions of demons and heading straight for Lin'an."

"The great scholars of the imperial court are fighting the bull-headed man from the northwest, but they are not strong enough to defeat him. The imperial court has ordered all the great scholars of the Wen Dynasty to go into battle."

Song Mu was wearing a linen robe. After hearing the news, he looked back at the scene in the yard and nodded silently.

After explaining a few things to Gu Qingqing, Song Mu walked out. However, he paused when he stepped over the threshold, turned around and looked back into the house, then knelt down and kowtowed.

…Outside Lin’an Prefecture, the sea tide was surging.

Dark clouds were gathering over the sea in the distance, and the strong wind brought a fishy and salty smell into everyone's nose. At this moment, the area outside Lin'an Prefecture was already surrounded by people.

"Listen to me, elders. Lin'an is already overcrowded. We should leave the city. We cannot stay here for long."

"Scholar, we have been walking for a day and a night and we are exhausted. Please talk to the official and let us go into the city to rest first."

An old man was talking to a man who looked like a scholar, and the man looked embarrassed when he heard it.

"Old man, it's not that we don't want to enter the city. The soldiers guarding the city have said that a beast tide is coming and the whole city is under martial law. No one is allowed to enter."

"Everyone, listen to me. The situation today is serious. I'm afraid this place is not safe. Let's grit our teeth and continue on our way."

Before the scholar finished speaking, a horn was heard. Countless people looked up and saw teams of yamen runners marching along the city roads, yelling at the people to make way.

Soon, teams of soldiers marched out of Lin'an City in quick steps, their weapons flashing with light, bringing with them a murderous atmosphere.

The team was endless and was now heading towards the seaside.

There was a Mongolian child standing on the side of the road, looking around and asking his family.

"Dad, what are they going to do?"

"That means we are going to fight. The world is about to change drastically."

At this moment, it seemed that there was no need for the scholar to explain anything anymore. The people also realized that Lin'an Prefecture was not a safe place at the moment, and they all scattered in all directions.

For a while, the journey was quite chaotic with everyone carrying the old and the young.

At the same time, on the coast of the East China Sea, Liu Jue, commander of the East Frontier Army, frowned as he looked at the situation in front of him.

"Have the soldiers arrived at their locations?"

"Reporting to the commander, the troops are in place, and multiple layers of defense have been deployed according to the commander's request."

"I wonder if we can stop the attack of the East Sea monster tribe."

"The Black Dragon King is helping us in the battle. Even then, it wasn't as tense as it is today."

As Liu Jue said this, he suddenly sensed several auras in the sky and his expression suddenly brightened.

The next moment, a surging force fell in front of Liu Jue, and Liu Jue quickly bowed.

"Chang Daru!"

"How is it going ahead? I came here from Chang'an and saw civilians running away all along the way. Are all the soldiers in place?"

Liu Jue hurriedly reported the situation, and at this time a figure fell from the sky again.

An elder with a long beard stood with his hands behind his back, glanced at a few people, and bowed to Mr. Chang.

"Li Li, I didn't expect you to come so quickly."

"I set out as soon as the sect received the news, so I didn't miss anything."

As he spoke, Elder Li glanced around and then asked again.

"What? Are we the only two here?"

"That's the Black Dragon King, not just any demon saint."

Before he finished speaking, another figure fell down. The two of them quickly looked and saw that it was Song Mu. Their eyes lit up at once.

"Song Jingzhao, I didn't expect you to come here too."

"How dare Song stay in peace in this corner when the Black Dragon King comes to attack us?"

Song Mu was dressed in white at the moment, his face was full of sharpness, and his words were calm and clear.

As he spoke, the power of the sky surged, and the auras of several great scholars came one after another.
