Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 65 Monster Riot
Xiaokui's legs were already so frightened that her legs went limp. Even a reborn person like Xia Zijin had never seen such a terrifying scene. Her lips turned white and her scalp felt numb.

A waiter from a restaurant who has turned into a monster is already troublesome, but now there are so many villagers who have turned into monsters, even if they have three heads and six arms, they can't deal with it.

"I'll protect the princess, Xiao Huanzi, take care of Xiaokui, hurry to the village entrance to lead the carriage!"

Xia Shengqing yelled loudly, waking everyone up from their terrified stupefaction. Xiaohuanzi nodded tremblingly, his legs were so soft that he took a step and then staggered, Xiaokui helped him up, and the two walked towards each other tremblingly. rushed to the entrance of the village.

Xia Zijin's breath was a little unsteady, he tried to calm himself down, and looked at Xia Shengqing, seeing the firmness in each other's eyes.

"Princess, can you still run?" Xia Shengqing whispered, the monsters are getting closer and closer, although Xiaohuanzi and Xiaokui still have two of them attracting the monsters after they ran out, but if they don't retreat, it may be true It's about to fall into the mouth of a tiger.

Xia Zijin bit her lip and nodded, took Xia Shengqing's big hand, and the two of them rushed forward in unison after counting silently to three times.

The aura of the "prey" was getting farther and farther away, and the mutated villagers roared in unison, screaming strangely, twisting their bodies in the direction of the living aura, and chasing after them. His mouth was still drooling, and the rancid smell was overwhelming.

The two ran forward desperately, and the monsters behind them also pursued persistently. Xia Zijin's body was already weak, but after running a hundred meters, he felt exhausted and his ankles ached. stand up.She gritted her teeth and continued to run forward, trying not to fall behind Xia Shengqing's pace, but she was a little powerless, her foot suddenly tilted, and she fell forward to the ground.

"Princess!"

With a heavy hand, Xia Shengqing quickly picked Xia Zijin up from the ground. Seeing Xia Zijin's slightly painful expression, he felt very anxious.

"Shengqing...you run...my ankle is sprained..." Xia Zijin only felt that the tingling pain in his ankle was getting worse and worse, and it hurt like tearing with a little force, and he couldn't use any more force at all.

Seeing the monster getting closer and closer, she was also filled with fear, but she didn't want to drag Xia Shengqing down. It's ridiculous to say that she was reborn with great difficulty. Planted in this Minhui Village?

Xia Shengqing frowned, and hugged Xia Zijin without saying a word.The monster was less than a foot away from them. Xia Shengqing picked up Xia Zijin, exerted all his strength on his hind legs, and ran forward.

Xia Zijin was leaning on his shoulders, hearing the whistling wind, Xia Shengqing's brows were tightened in front of his eyes, and there was firmness and determination in his eyes, which were as deep as a deep pool.As if feeling Xia Zijin's scorching gaze, Xia Shengqing turned her head to give her a comforting smile. The distance between their faces was less than an inch, their breathing was heavy, and their eyes were burning.

A monster had already rushed to the front, and its black gray claws grabbed Xia Shengqing's arm. He was shocked and ran to the side. The fabric on his arm was torn off by the monster, and even the exposed skin of his arm was shattered. With three fingernail bloodstains.

"Princess, hurry up!"

Xia Shengqing snorted, and lifted Xia Zijin up, and her steps quickened even more.

More and more monster villagers were attracted by the noise. Xia Zijin looked at the monster with green face and fangs, and his heart was already in his throat. It was their carelessness. Such a weird riot would never be a surprise It was discovered that the changes in the villagers were bizarre and sudden, and this matter must have something to do with Concubine Yue and Xia Ziqi!

"Princess! Manager Xia! Get on the carriage!"

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the entrance of the village, Xiaohuanzi and Xiaokui were already waving anxiously at them from the carriage.Xia Shengqing clenched her teeth and rushed forward with all her strength.

"Little Huanzi, help me!"

Xia Shengqing lifted Xia Zijin's whole body up, and Xiao Huanzi on the carriage quickly reached out to take Xia Zijin over.Xiao Kui ran forward with the carriage, and Xia Zijin had been safely picked up by Xiao Huanzi.

The monsters were getting closer and closer, and just as the crowd was about to pounce on them, Xia Shengqing leaped onto the carriage with a flying body. The monsters rushed to nothing, fell down in front of the carriage for a moment, and when they stood up again, the carriage was dead. Dust away.

"It's dangerous..." Xiaokui stroked her heart, feeling that the heart under her chest was about to jump out.

The monster villagers behind the carriage couldn't smell the smell of strangers, gradually calmed down from the rage, and walked away one by one, looking for the next breath of breath in the village.

Xiao Huanzi replaced Shang Xiaokui's temporary driving position and started to drive forward at full speed, while Xia Zijin and the three got into the carriage, still in shock.

"Shengqing, what's wrong with your arm!" Sitting in the carriage, Xia Zijin looked at Xia Shengqing whose wound was still slightly bleeding, and was very worried.

"It's okay, it's just scratched the skin." Xia Shengqing waved her hand, tore off the clothes on the wound, found cotton and Jinchuang medicine from the medicine box in the carriage, and was about to deal with it herself.

"My princess, come." Xia Zijin whispered, took the cotton ball in Xia Shengqing's hand, and wiped off the sticky blood on the wound surface bit by bit with the water in the kettle.

"Seeing that the color of the wound is light red, I think there should be no poison in the nails of those monsters."

While wiping the surface of the wound, Xia Zijin said, the stone hanging in her heart was slightly lowered. Those people's nails were black and gray, and if they scratched into the wound with toxins, the consequences would be disastrous.

Her curled eyelashes raised slightly, and her pair of eyes carefully treated Xia Shengqing's wound, wiped it clean, then sprinkled the gold wound medicine, and wiped it evenly with her fingertips.

"Xiaokui, cut a piece of gauze."

Xia Zijin ordered, took the gauze that Xiaokui had cut off with a stab, and carefully wrapped it around Xia Shengqing's injured area, and finally tied it tightly, before wiping the fine sweat off his forehead with a sigh of relief.

Seeing her serious look, Xia Shengqing couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth to smile again and again, and even the wound on her arm didn't feel much pain anymore.

"Princess..." Xiaokui folded her arms, thinking of the appearance of those monsters just now, she still felt a little creepy, "Why did those villagers all look like that? They look like they have no sanity, nothing like beasts different."

Xia Zijin rubbed her scalp, only to feel a headache: "Everything must be related to Concubine Yue, I am afraid that things are not as simple as we imagined, the so-called divine premonition under the ancient tree, and the riot tonight are probably all related It's for this princess."

Xia Shengqing nodded, it was indeed too strange, they only thought that Concubine Yue was being framed in the name of divinity, but now the riot in Minhui Village showed that it was definitely not that simple.

"The only plan now is to take one step at a time. Fortunately, we should be able to return to Shangjing before the palace gate falls," Xia Shengqing said.

Just now she was tense, but now she relaxes, Xia Zijin only feels pain in her ankle again. She reaches out and rubs her ankle gently, and the pain is relieved a little.

"Princess, if there is any emergency in the future, don't let me go, and don't let me go first. I can only be safe if you are safe. I will do my best to protect you." Xia Shengqing sprained Xia Zijin He raised his ankle to his knee, and lifted up his white socks, only to see that the joints had turned red, with faint blue spots.

Xia Shengqing found medicinal wine from the medicine box, poured it on the palm of her hand, rubbed it to warm it, then covered her sprain, and rubbed it gently.

Xia Zijin blinked, only to feel that the person in front of her was so alive, her ankles were burning hot, and the words to protect her were still lingering in her ears, sweeping her heart like the wind.

The carriage traveled far and wide in the moonlight, rolling over sand and stones, and the crescent moon on the treetops seemed to be covered by clouds. After all, it was a restless moonlit night.

On the second day above the Golden Luan Hall, hundreds of civil and military officials stood facing each other, with their hands clasped together and silent. After speaking, the dragon's eyes shrink even more while holding his knees.

"Why did this happen suddenly? Could it be that people in the west of your city are eating for free!" Ming Shengdi slapped the dragon chair with a bang, his chest heaving with anger.

"Going back to the emperor, I don't know! Yesterday at the junction of Youshi and Xushi, villagers in the villages around the west of the city went to the yamen to beat drums and said that an unknown monster had attacked the village. I received reports from five or six village yamen officials one after another. Immediately So they sent soldiers to capture them, but those monsters are not beasts, they are transformed by ordinary people in common clothes!"

As soon as the defense officer's words fell, the court exploded, and all the ministers and friends around them started talking about it. This matter was so shocking that it had to be staggering.

"Shut up!" Ming Shengdi patted the dragon chair, and the dragon's beard shook, and he scolded, "Guardian, what basis do you have for saying that those monsters were changed by the people?"

The defense officer cupped his hands and said: "The soldiers of the minister caught some monsters, ignoring the strange appearance, the figure and the outside are indeed human. I saw that they all had black complexions, strangely long articulate teeth, and nails that had become It is sharp and long, and has no sense, only smells of living things, and once found, it will swarm up and bite."

The ministers all frowned and bit the living people. Such a bloody and brutal monster was turned by the people.

"Then, my lord, have you found out where these villagers come from?" the prince said.

The defense officer nodded, sighed and said: "Exactly, those villagers who turned into monsters were confirmed to be villagers in Minhui Village in the west of the city after overnight verification by the lower officials, and none of the people in the entire village were spared. They have all been reduced to monsters that are neither human nor beast!"

Emperor Ming stroking the center of his brows, his head ached endlessly. Could it be that such a huge number of mutations is what the sky is pointing at?
