twin moon

Chapter 219, Scene 28
As midnight approached, the twin moons gradually rose from the horizon, and the sound of clappers came intermittently from outside the square wall.Accompanied by it, there are also the loud orders of the patrolling military guards in Yujing City, and the uniform pace.

Ning Yue and her daughter, who had been hiding in the east of the city for a whole day, also got out of a dilapidated firewood shed in the dark.The horrific changes that took place in the palace city caused the whole city of Yujing to implement a curfew in the evening.Right now, the gates of all the squares and cities are closed tightly, and the Twelfth Military Guard Army has also been dispatched. Even a wild cat can no longer move easily in the city.

Feng Weishu took the girl here to hide before the curfew.This place is called Wenluofang, and there is only one house inside the walls that seems to have been abandoned, and it is unknown since when no one has been managing and repairing it.Today, the willow gardens in the courtyard have long withered and withered, and the screen wall and wall have been incomplete and half collapsed. Only the overgrown weeds are growing vigorously in the yard, which is no bigger than an adult's knee, covering the scattered wells and ruins. and dilapidated houses.

This house was a hidden hiding place that Gao Li bought for himself in the city before.As the so-called three caves of the cunning rabbit, there are two other courtyards like this outside the city. They were used to avoid Kunjie's pursuit after breaking up with Kunjie.In the previous contact with Gao Li, Feng Weishu accidentally learned of their existence.

Now, the former Mr. Gao has died on the Wannian Palace, and this courtyard that lost its master happened to be the most stable place in Yujing City, where he could bring his daughter here for a while. dodge.

But what the father and daughter could not have imagined was that there were still living people haunting the courtyard that should have been vacant.As soon as they leaned forward, they saw several figures entering the door along the corner of the wall.The two had no choice but to quietly hide their whereabouts in the firewood shed in the backyard.Seeing the dimly lit lights in the house that lasted for a long time, they couldn't help hesitating whether they should take advantage of the night and leave here, or go forward boldly.

"Couldn't they be some thieves who entered the city while the war was in turmoil, and wanted to do things like chickens and dogs? Otherwise, how could they run around in violation of the curfew like us, and don't turn off the lights to rest in the middle of the night?"

Ning Yue held her throat and asked, but she didn't want her father to get any closer.

Feng Weishu firmly shook his head:

"Yue'er, don't you feel it? Ever since these people were admitted to the hospital, there has been an obvious but somewhat weird force spreading over—"

"Could it be that this group of people is actually in the same group as Kunjie?!"

The girl couldn't help yelling in surprise, and then quickly covered her mouth with her hand, "Then let's leave quickly, and if we continue to stay here, don't we cast ourselves into a trap?"

However, before she finished speaking, the father beside her had already stood up, muttering something while walking towards the door of the lit room.

As he approached the other party step by step, the people in the house quickly noticed that the situation outside the door was different, and immediately opened the door to go out, but they were alone.I saw him standing ten steps away from Feng Weishu's body, chanting the same words, but he did not attack the uninvited guests in the courtyard.

Ning Yue looked at her father and each other as if possessed by a demon, just standing in the courtyard, but seemed to be fixed, neither moving forward nor retreating.At the same time, a swampy mist suddenly filled the room.

The girl was worried, and immediately stepped forward to pull Feng Weishu's cuff with her hands, but she felt a tingling pain from her fingertips, which was actually shot away by invisible lightning around her father.

It wasn't until this moment that she realized that her father's eyes were as gray as a dead man's.And the opponent in front of him also looked like this.Ning Yue was horrified, and suddenly realized that this might be the soul-force curse that Granny Cen had mentioned to her but never taught.This mantra is the most profound spell among the suffocating breaths, and only the great priests of the Cangyu clan in the past have enough concentration to activate it.

The soul forcing curse does not use the usual means of wind, thunder, lightning and fire to attack, but to compete the spiritual power of both sides in the "fixation".Once the winner is decided, the loser will be severely punished.The light ones will be disabled, and the heavy ones will be killed.

However, for tens of thousands of years, there has never been any high priest who really urged this technique.Ning Yue would never have imagined that she could see someone fighting with the soul-force curse with her own eyes today, but she didn't dare to disturb her easily.

I don't know how long it took, Feng Weishu suddenly let out a muffled groan, as if his spirit had returned to his original state, and he regained consciousness, but he was unable to continue to support his body at all, staggered back a few steps, and then suddenly fell backwards.

Seeing this, the girl rushed forward to support her father, and saw that his clothes were soaked through.On the other hand, the person on the opposite side was already bleeding from all seven orifices, and fell unconscious on the ground.

"Yue'er, are you okay?"

Before she could speak, Feng Weishu was the first to ask about her daughter's safety.Ning Yue shook her head lightly, then took out a small handkerchief, and wiped off the cold sweat that was still dripping from her forehead for her father, her eyes fixed on the man on the ground:

"He looks like he's only a few years older than me, why is he able to cast the soul-force curse?"

Hearing that Ning Yue accurately hit the move she used, Feng Weishu's expression was a little surprised at first, and then there was a gratified light in his eyes:
"Indeed, the reason why my father used the Soul-Forcing Curse tonight was because he didn't want to attract the attention of the guards who were patrolling nearby. Few people in the world can take this method. I thought I could defeat the enemy with one move, but unexpectedly I was caught by it." The opponent took it abruptly, and was almost defeated by him! It's just—"

As Feng Weishu spoke, he suddenly paused, as if he was not sure about what he was going to say next, "It's just that the cowardice this person used obviously didn't come from the court, but was borrowed from some other power I was able to move it just now. It's like, like—"

"It's Xuangui!"

Ning Yue was startled suddenly, regardless of the danger, she quickly walked to the side of the man on the ground, and tore off a string of necklaces from his chest.I saw a black rose the size of a grape hanging from the necklace, glowing strangely under the night.

Seeing this, Feng Weishu couldn't help but suddenly realized: "No wonder I think this person looks familiar. It turns out that I have indeed met Kunjie before. It seems that he is a newly promoted law enforcement elder."

Before the words fell, the man on the ground suddenly laughed loudly:

"The chief priest has a good memory! I, Nie Sheng, will help the chief priest kill you today with my life!"

Ning Yue screamed in fright, and quickly jumped away from the other party, only to realize that she couldn't even move a finger, and she was hanging on her breath to continue her life.Feng Weishu also showed a look of fear, and then spewed a big mouthful of blood from his mouth, scattered all over the ground, and was still seriously injured:

"Wait—you actually used the forbidden spell in the family! Using the black rose to activate the spell will definitely backfire on the caster. In the end, none of you will survive!"

"So what? As long as we can find the Holy City, why should we spare our lives!"

"Did Qi Shouyu of Ye Kingdom use the Soul-Forcing Curse to harm Ziyin's father and blame him?!"

Ning Yue also suddenly understood, and rushed forward to question again.

Nie Sheng chuckled, but didn't deny it outright:
"Although the number of our people is not as large as that of the people on the land, this method is enough to help the first one build an unprecedentedly powerful army. After today, no one in the world can stop us! Those people on the land can't do it , you're not even good at it!"

"Speak! Has Kunjie taught this method to everyone in the clan? Is he going to lead the clan to the holy city, and use the lives of the whole clan as a bet to mobilize the ancestors' circle in order to complete his mission? revenge?!"

Feng Weishu seemed to have guessed the next plan of his old enemy. He stretched his weak body and walked in front of the opponent, wanting to ask again, but Nie Sheng refused to reveal another half word no matter what, and spit out After the last breath with blood foam, he died like this.

"What shall we do next?"

The girl looked up at her father in front of her, worried about his body, and worried about those tribesmen who didn't know but followed Kunjie northward to find the holy city.

Feng Weishu didn't answer her daughter's question.Because even he didn't know how to stop Kunjie who had fallen into madness and was putting his plan into practice step by step.What's more, he has no idea what the other party's next plan will be and what kind of disaster it will bring.

In the second year of Zhaoxi, on the eleventh day of the sixth month, noon had passed, and the sun was set to the west.

Changzhou, which had been raining for several days in a row, finally cleared up on this day.The dark clouds all over the sky have dispersed, leaving only a few cloud threads as thin as cotton hanging in the sky.The blue sky also seemed to be a polished gem, with a light blue light that made it difficult to open the eyes.

Just after lunch, Jiang Yan suddenly proposed to take a walk by Yushui, and invited Qi Ziyin to accompany him.The boy in white readily agreed, feeling faintly that his companion had something to say to him.

The two headed south from Chiwu Gate in Yujing, and after arriving at Longshoudu, they ordered all the accompanying guards to stay there.Then he drove the horse all the way to the west, and went straight for more than ten miles, but he didn't have any intention of stopping.

Qi Ziyin felt more and more that the other party's behavior was quite abnormal, so he pinched the side of his mount with all his strength, overtook half of the horse behind the rein in his hand, and abruptly stopped Wu Chen:
"Jiang Yan, you asked me out, do you have something to say?"

Startled by the sudden obstruction, the black pony stood up, and then snorted somewhat dissatisfied.However, the owner on its back didn't care at all, still looking at the sky in silence.

Right now, Yushui's entrance to the sea can already be vaguely seen.After a long time, he murmured:

"Ziyin, do you know that I am from Changzhou? I came from a fishing village that no longer exists by the Yushui River?"

As soon as this remark came out, the young Lord Ye did not know what to do next.He knew that his companion had had a tragic childhood.However, we have known each other for so many years, but he has never brought it up like today.

However, Jiang Yan on the side just said to himself, as if he was not asking for his companion's opinion at all, and he didn't care how much he heard:

"...But now, I don't even remember where my hometown is. I don't even know where to go when I want to offer condolence to my parents..."

"If you want to find it, I will do my best to help you. You can always find it in time."

Qi Ziyin comforted him, but saw the other party shake his head vigorously:
"Even if it is found, what's the use? The whole village, including my parents, is dead. Even the only sister they entrusted to me is unpredictable, and her whereabouts are unknown. I just hate, hate killed their People, I hate those people who caused my family to be scattered and displaced!"

The black-eyed boy gradually gritted his teeth, and after finishing speaking, he actually took out a string of necklaces from his pocket.The pendant of the necklace is made of sterling silver, and in the center of the white crystal embedded in it, there is a pure red color like a small fish, which is particularly eye-catching in the sunlight.

"Isn't this Ning Yue's necklace?"

The young man with the silver mask said in surprise, but he didn't know what the other party's move meant.

Jiang Yan suddenly raised his eyes, there was an indescribable sadness in the dark pupils with water marks:

"I used to be a soldier of the Ye Kingdom, a southerner who was worthless in the eyes of the Shuodi people. But now, I have become the Da Hehan of those grassland people who once regarded me as a deadly enemy. I just can't figure it out. I am also a human being. What is the reason for killing each other and hating each other?"

"Jiang Yan, what do you mean by saying this?"

The young Lord Ye became more and more confused.However, what the other party said next made him change his face immediately:
"Ziyin, if Yue'er is not of the same race as us, or even the same kind, what would you do if it were you?"

"Jiang Yan, what are you talking about?"

"The necklace in my hand originally belonged to my younger sister! Now it is in Yue'er's hands, so she must know who killed my relatives and destroyed my home!"

Qi Ziyin froze suddenly after his best friend sternly shouted.He had never thought before that the question that the other party had been hiding in his heart for a long time would be so sharp and bloody.But right now, he has no way of judging the truth, let alone how to comfort him, but instinctively avoids the pair of lacquered eyes in front of him:
"Perhaps there is some misunderstanding in this—"

However, before he finished speaking, Jiang Yan interrupted him with an angry shout: "Even you don't believe me?!"

The boy in white finally became anxious, and couldn't help raising his tone:
"It's not that I don't believe you. It's just that you know, Jiang Yan, how much Ning Yue likes you in her heart? Could it be that you went south to find someone this time, not to save her from danger, but to seek revenge from her?!"

Mu Yunbu and Han, who were wearing red armor, were suddenly stopped.For so many days, he let his anger drive him, but he never asked himself why he had to stubbornly leave Yanluoyuan in the first place, and why he had to come to Yujing to risk himself.All of this is not only for the pursuit of a truth, nor is it because of the unbroken affection for the red-haired girl in her heart.He shook his head, and put the necklace in his hand back into his arms again:
"I—I don't know either. I'm actually a person who is afraid of being alone, but now I seem to be possessed, pushing everyone close to me away one by one—I—"

The young He Han Zhi hawed and hawed authentically, but it was difficult to organize the already chaotic thoughts in his mind into sentences.However, at this moment, there was a Chiyan Army cavalry galloping from behind the two of them.In the hand with iron fingers, tightly clutching a letter that was just taken off Mo Crow's feet:
"Princess Tuya, the princess has sent a message!"

Hearing this, the black-eyed boy's expression changed, and he immediately had a premonition that something had happened to Yanluo's plan, so he couldn't care less about talking to his companion, and stretched out his hand to take the silk book handed over by him and flatten it , read carefully.

But on the thin white silk, there were only two extremely scrawled, hair-raising characters:
"Wolf attack."
