She Is Not a Witch Chapter 68: Fire crow pierces the heart

"It's time to go, Miss Six." Among the bustling crowd, Ye Ling heard someone calling herself.

"I know." She agreed casually, and then looked at the blue comet that was slowly passing by in the distant night sky.

Even though they are so far apart, the night spirits can still feel the turbulent magic power and the will to see death as home.

'Is this war? It's terrible. ’ Yeling lightly jumped down the steps and followed the team ahead.

The originally dark sky lit up with a flash of light, instantly illuminating the world into day, and then slowly dissipated. Fragments and flames splashed and exploded, and the raging blue flame spread, filled, expanded, and exploded in the dragon's carriage.

When the dazzling flames dissipated, the majestic and luxurious dragon chariot was already in dilapidated condition. Its raging flames were burning inside and outside, and it slowly fell from the sky.

The roar of the giant dragon and the dragging cables could not stop the dragon chariot, which symbolized the emperor, from falling slowly. The main hall finally stopped after plowing up layers of bricks, stones and dirt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Among the flames and ruins, several dragonriders accompanying them descended from the sky, and then some of the pro-army arrived, searching through the flames of ruins, trying to find the figure of the young emperor.

"Ahem...Damn it."

Amidst the sound of coughing, a minister wearing silver embroidery on a white background stood up from the beam of the collapsed dragon carriage, and then staggered out from the flames. After that, several people climbed out of the dragon carriage one after another. , some were covered with burns, and some were already mutilated. Although miserable, they finally survived.

The other courtiers and personal guards who followed the emperor on the dragon chariot were not so lucky. Most of them died in the spreading blue flames, and less than one out of a hundred could survive the impact.

"Son of Heaven, where is the Son of Heaven?"

Among the burning ruins, a general in golden-red armor led the crowd to step in anxiously. He grabbed a minister who was still sane and asked loudly, his face full of eagerness.

Seeing that the extremely weak minister was about to be shaken to death by him, the other party finally struggled to speak, "Ahem... I don't know, but the emperor may still be alive, in the dragon chariot."

After speaking, the minister was thrown aside, and the general ordered the soldiers under his command to rush into the sea of ​​fire immediately to search for rescue and the figure of the emperor. After doing all this, he still couldn't settle down, so he asked people to look for fire extinguishing equipment immediately, until a few minutes later, a group of red-scaled halberd guards appeared with metal utensils such as dragon head and fish tail.

As the tail of the fish lights up the lines of concentrated magic power, the light spreads to the dragon's head, and the cold white mist and smoke gushes out, rushing towards the raging fire burning in the dragon chariot. The equipment used to extinguish the fire in the middle of the day finally played its role.

The wet ruins were full of black ash and mud. Soldiers rushed to dig open the structure of the dragon chariot, looking for the emperor in the center. It was getting closer and closer, making everyone present anxious.

Now Luojing is about to fall. Although the defenders in the city are still resisting, their fighting spirit has long been exhausted. meaningless.

Time passed by every minute and every second. From time to time in the sky, cold iron dragonriders of the Beifu army came down, but they were all stopped and repelled by the guarding golden bird dragonriders. Although they were not many in number, they were stronger than the average The Scarlet Sparrow Dragonriders are much taller, and they are also members of the royal family, so they are extremely loyal.

"I found it, I found His Majesty!" Finally, an exclamation sounded from the ruins, and then everyone's eyes suddenly focused there.

The extremely weak emperor walked out of the ruins supported by the soldiers. His consciousness seemed to be still unclear, and the dragon clothes on his body were full of scorched and mutilated marks.

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive." The general was overwhelmed with surprise, and then strode forward, helped the emperor, and then gave orders to everyone.

"Everyone follow me to protect the emperor and leave Luojing."

"Yes, my lord!" This time he was very angry, and many people also regained some hope.

If you want to say which one in Luojing does not want the emperor to die the most, it is the general who commands the red-scaled halberd guards. It all depends on the new emperor, if the emperor dies, not only will their family be beaten back to their original form, but they will also be besieged and liquidated by other jealous and resentful families.

Although the past dynasties have said that foreign relatives are not good at governing, if it weren't for the existence of these foreign relatives, how could the emperor, who is still inexperienced, be able to secure the throne, without the support of confidantes and loyal people, even if the emperor has a righteous name, It is also easy to be turned into a puppet and be manipulated by others.

Helping the almost unconscious emperor onto the back of the dragon, the group set off again, this time they were going to be more concealed, without any fanfare.

Although the dragon riders of the Beifu army spotted the whereabouts of this group of people in the sky, it was impossible to immediately organize a large number of people to chase and kill them under the chaos and corruption of the battlefield.

The soldiers on the ground couldn't fly, and were blocked by the chaotic crowd and buildings in the city. There were not many Beifu army dragonriders left in the sky who could fly. Even though some of the dragonriders were raided by the cavalry's spears before the siege, there were still a lot of these scarlet dragonriders, preventing the Beifu army from completely controlling the sky, and they could only watch that The party carrying the emperor gradually disappeared into the depths of the dark night sky.

…

"Cough, **** it!"

Spitting out a mouthful of black blood, the young general, covered in black ash and shattered armor, stood up slowly in the light of the fire, and he was surrounded by elite soldiers of the Beifu Army.

"Major General, don't get angry." An old doctor in green clothes stood behind him, holding a weeping willow branch, applying some healing potion to the wound on his back, and then patiently persuaded him.

"Although the hypocrite took the dragon to go west, his strength has been greatly weakened now, and there are not many ministers to guard him. He is like a bereaved dog. It will be easy to catch up and destroy him later."

"On the contrary, you have to take care of yourself. Now the Beifu army is maintained by the general. If something happens to you, I'm afraid it will fall apart soon." The old man used some healing spells to recuperate his body. internal injury.

This embarrassed general with scars all over his body is naturally the son of Zhuo Muye, the commander of the Beifu Army, Zhuo Fengtong, one of the seven people who once climbed to the top of the Chilou to fight swords.

Last night, at the cost of liberating and burning a sacred object, he turned into a blue flame comet and pierced through and smashed the dragon chariot, almost killing the emperor who was riding in it. It's a pity that after that attack was used, Zhuo Fengtang's physical strength and magic power were also exhausted, and he was unable to chase him any more. If the giant dragon under him hadn't endured the pain to carry him back, he might have been caught on the spot by the Golden Sparrow Dragonrider who came behind him. beheaded.

Now the east is white, the sky is slowly lighting up, and the long night is finally over.

The city of Luojing is in a mess, with collapsed buildings and ruins everywhere, white smoke that is not exhausted from the flames, and occasional calls for help and cries from the corners. Although the battle is not completely over, the city has already Without too much resistance, the soldiers of the Beifu Army are patrolling the streets in groups, blocking the deployment, and gradually maintaining stability.

After receiving the treatment, Zhuo Fengtang led two teams of personal guards to walk on the street surrounded by white smoke, inspecting the situation on the side of the street. Everywhere he went, there were traces left by the battle last night. At least it is the black ash from the explosion of gunpowder, the dead corpse lying down, the dried and solidified blood, the bricks and gravel thrown up.

After this war, I am afraid that the bustling capital city of Luojing in the past will no longer exist.

He had some regrets and feelings in his heart. Although he lived in Luojing for a few years when he was a child, his childhood memories have actually been blurred. Most of them are the days when he lived in the north with his father as an adult.

The last time he lived in Luojing for a long time was when he was fighting swords in Chilou. At that time, he also received invitations from many relatives and friends, and went to banquets and parties repeatedly. He met many peers and had a lot of love for Luojing learn.

However, after the former emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne, these friends also disappeared. Everyone has their own positions and camps, and they can no longer be as carefree as they used to be.

Zhuo Feng recalled these past events in his mind, until a burst of hurried footsteps sounded from behind.

"Major General, all the commanders and Chief Wanqi have gathered in the main hall of the imperial palace, waiting for your Excellency to inspect and discuss the matter."

"Okay, I see." He then replied, and then looked towards the towering golden red palace in the distance.

Compared to other buildings in Luojing, the palace in the inner city of the Imperial Palace is much taller as a whole, and it is particularly eye-catching and majestic. If the other houses are built on the ground, then the inner city is built on a flattened hill , but the palace walls are separated, the foot of the mountain cannot be seen, and the ground in the palace city is covered with white jade bricks and stones, which is magnificent and spacious. From the outside of the palace to the inner hall of the palace, it is like climbing a mountain. steps.

Put on the chilling armor again, and mounted the horse, Zhuo Fengtang led two teams of cavalry towards the direction of the palace.

…

Under the turning of the iron chain, the heavy palace gate was slowly opened, revealing the steps with a width of about 100 meters, among which were carved patterns of phoenix flowers and plants, which were lifelike.

There is no longer an emperor, there is no need to kowtow to the king, and there is no need to follow the red tape. Zhuo Fengtong rode a war horse straight up from the white jade steps.

The former imperial guards in the palace have long since disappeared, and there are still many bloodstains on the ground. Now guarding both sides of the right path are soldiers of the Beifu army in white clothes and silver armor. There are still black letters on a white background in their hands The banner fluttered from time to time in the cold wind.

After walking up the steps, the hall where the king used to discuss affairs has gathered a number of generals, as well as foreign leaders who fought with the Beifu army.

When he came to the front of the hall, Zhuo Fengtang got off his horse and stepped into the hall with a group of guards. Although the Beifu Army had expelled the Son of Heaven, Zhuo Fengtang did not sit on the jade throne, but just stood in front and spoke.

"Yesterday's battle, our army finally won the victory, all of you have contributed."

"No." Everyone clasped their fists and lowered their heads, then raised their bodies and looked at the major general.

"We will travel thousands of miles under the order of Fenghuo, sacrificing our lives and forgetting to die, just to fulfill the late emperor's sad wish."

"Now Luojing has been captured and occupied by our army, and the hypocrite has fled in a hurry. It can be said that there is not much power left, just follow up and wipe it out."

"After the two hypocrites and kings are killed, I will die without regret." He said in a deep voice, and then slowly turned his eyes to the people in the hall, scanning them one by one.

Many of them had burning eyes, and there seemed to be emotions in their eyes, but there were also wobbly eyes, thinking about other things.

"I know that many people are worried about the future of the Beifu army. What should we do after we reach the Phoenix Fire Edict, especially the northern allies who have followed here because of my father's personal prestige." He looked at In a corner of the hall, there stood several alien leaders dressed in beast robes and with scimitars and horns on their waists.

It was the ferocious behemoths led by these people who made great achievements last night and broke through the defense lines of the Dragon Army. If not, the victory of last night is still unknown.

"Here, I will try my best to ensure that the soldiers of the Beifu Army can return to their hometown after the battle. After that, whether I get a sum of money to disarm and return to the farmland, or to choose another national organization to serve as allegiance, I will not object any more. That is your freedom and choice .”

"Just like what was said in the Phoenix Fire Edict, the dynasty re-divided the kingdoms of the five phoenixes, and each of them settled down to his destiny, waiting for the world to do what he wanted. Eventually there will be sages who will reappear, do the old things of the five phoenixes, and redefine the country."

"It's just that this separation and reunion may last for hundreds of years, and I'm afraid I won't be able to see it." He shook his head slowly.

"The past is like smoke, what we can do is to turn into the fire of the phoenix tail, burn up the last remnants, and bury it, so that the broom dynasty will be less infamous in the history books , a bit more lamentable loyalty."

"The solitary flame will last forever, and perhaps some future generations will inherit this will and open up a more peaceful and beautiful prosperous world." His voice was full of sadness, and everyone in the hall was also silent. Emotions surged.

———

Two days later, I went to Xiazhou.

At this time, the night was getting darker, the sky was full of stars, and the evening wind was blowing through the mountains and forests, making soft noises. Although there was such a beautiful scene on such a beautiful day, these people who were speeding in the sky were probably not in the mood to appreciate it.

"Where is this side?" The former emperor, now wearing black-scaled armor and riding on the dragon's back, asked the courtiers beside him.

"Your Majesty, this should be Laixiazhou."

Cheng Xia, also known as "頳xia", is a red cloud. [Southern Dynasty Liang Jiangyan's "Qi Taizu Gao Huang Di": "The rosy clouds are blowing towards the morning, and the smoke is ignoring the evening."]

"From Xixiazhou to the west, the mountain gradually slows down, and after another three hundred miles, there is the endless sea. I will walk through the sea, and I can go to Xihai Mansion to gain a foothold in the west, and I can go to Longquan Bay in the south for help. The world is extravagant and rich, if they support them, and then recruit troops and horses, they can return to Luojing and aspire to become the king of the world." In the night wind, Li Jingfang advised the new king.

Although the dragon chariot fell in the flames that day, he did not die in it, but suffered some burns, and now his arms are wrapped in bandages.

With this minister's suggestion, Xinjun felt a lot relieved, and felt that flying at night was also a lot more comfortable.

Because the dragon riders of the Beifu army followed closely behind, they usually do not fly during the day, in case they are found, they gallop at night, and they have traveled hundreds of miles now. In the endless sea, the Beifu army could not catch up.

In the night, the dragon wings spread out, and the cold wind blew over the faces and armors. Everyone's mood gradually improved. The two days of nervous escape made everyone's nerves tense, and only then did they feel relieved.

Just as everyone was gradually immersed in the soothing night wind, a startled cry of crows pierced the night sky.

"Who!" The accompanying dragon riders held their weapons tightly, looking down and searching alertly.

In the originally quiet mountain forest, there are extremely black crows flying, and there are more and more, like countless black snowflakes blowing from the ground, sweeping up from the bottom, covering the night sky, The sound was so loud that it made people almost deaf and panicked.

Just when everyone was wondering and looking around in a daze, it seemed as if a signal sounded, and a crimson flame ignited on a crow, and then spread rapidly, and all the thousands of crows were waving burning flames.

Fire crows covered the sky, swarming and shuttling through the night sky, faintly surrounding the group of people in the air, and the flames burning on the body reflected the entire night sky, as if shrouded in a fiery red haze.

These fire crows are by no means ordinary monsters. When they are connected together, they seem to form some kind of resonance circle, which faintly reveals a turbulent magic power that is almost crazy.

"Admonish the evil Fire Crow Gate? Why, how could this be the case."

Looking at these fiery crows that distorted the air, dazzled with high temperature, and even frightened, Li Jingfang's face turned pale, and his voice was astonished.

Facing the horrific heat waves coming from the sky, their bodies turned into crows of pure blazing flames. Even the giant dragons carrying everyone on their backs felt a pain and dared not approach them. .

Admonishing the evil Fire Crow Sect, one of the top sects in the world, although it is the direct descendant of Chifeng, it is rarely known to outsiders, and it is especially mysterious. It is said that after Chifeng made an alliance on the mountain of the Yellow Sea, considering the need for someone to maintain the alliance, So he ordered the remonstrance evil Huoyamen to act in secret and monitor the world.

I don't want to see a door that few people know in this world, but it appears here today.

After thousands of fire crows, one by one disciples wearing red crow cloaks gradually appeared from the darkness. They carried fire wings on their backs, and although they had no weapons in their hands, they were still disturbing.

"Li Jingfang, as a minister entrusted by the emperor, you disobeyed Fenghuo's edict and bewitched Prince Zhaolong and other officials. You made a big mistake, and you have to die to apologize."

After finishing speaking, a crimson stream of light rushed out from the night, crossed the flashing arc, and cut off the head of the emperor's close minister, the blood vessels erupted, and Li Jingfang seemed to still retain a little consciousness in that flying head , full of fear and unwillingness.

Then, the leader of the disciples of the Remonstrating Evil Fire Crow Sect read again, and every time a minister's name was read, a crimson stream of light rushed out and beheaded him.

"This... how could it be like this."

A general was full of reluctance, clenched the dragon gun in his hand, and drove the giant dragon under him to rush towards the formation formed by the fire crows. The general and the giant dragon under him were torn apart by the fire crow, turned into pieces of burning pieces, passed through the night sky, and fell to the pitch-black earth.

In such a tragic situation, everyone in the air hesitated to stop, but the voice of declaring the crime never stopped. One after another, crimson streamers rushed out of the night, beheading all the important officials. In the end, except for the guarding dragon riders, Only the emperor in the middle is left.

He was panicked, he didn't know where to place his hands, he looked around and shouted, asking the surrounding dragonriders to protect him, but unfortunately it was all in vain, even those dragonriders couldn't take care of themselves, they were cut off by the fire crow.

"Prince Zhaolong, you tampered with the emperor's order, pretended to ascend the throne, killed Zhongliang, and even Queen Zhaoyue died in the palace, and because you ignored the order~IndoMTL.com~ Luojing was turned into a sea of ​​​​flames, and millions of people He was displaced, his wife and children were scattered, and there were countless casualties, so he deserved to be pierced by thousands of crows."

After speaking, the one pointed his finger, and countless fire crows rose in the night sky, like a phoenix dancing, brilliantly, and then swooped down, carrying flames and screaming towards the emperor on the dragon's back.

"I, no!"

The distorted face was illuminated by the blazing fire, and he stretched out his hand, trying to stop the thousands of fire crows that swooped down, but everything was in vain.

The scorching fire crow pierced through the flesh and blood, bringing up boiling blood, which instantly turned into steam and dissipated, and then the fire crow passed through one after another, and the hole in the body became bigger and bigger until the whole body Thousands of flames drowned the bones, and even the consciousness of the soul evaporated and dissipated in the distorted and dazzling flames, leaving no trace.

Afterwards, the gray and black residual ash slowly fell from the sky, the flames on the crow gradually extinguished, and then disappeared into the night sky, leaving only the accompanying golden bird dragonriders staring blankly at the empty night sky, And the dots of Mars disappearing in the night sky.

In July, the new ruler was destroyed and punished by the evil Fire Crow Gate.
