The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 116: The Sound of Swords in the Deep House (Part 1)
One world is full of hustle and bustle, iron thunder and steel wind, another world is sunny and windy, there is no lack of sad stories, only the ticking clock insists on moving forward, "Go on, Ellie. "Jonah said to the Rose Knight. He didn't realize that his voice was as bitter as dripping black juice. Elio nodded, pretending that he didn't see the scar in the boy's eyes.
"We waited for eleven days and eight hours on the north bank of the ancient disaster of the Holy River, and finally waited until the rain clouds dissipated, the river became calm, and the violent high tide period was over. The fishermen and boat merchants did not know where to appear, so we rented it. A ferry arrived in the southern continent. Until this time, we barely figured out the other party’s intentions. Our speed in learning Oriental was much slower than Miss Long Ji's learning the common language in the West. After eleven days and eight hours, she I can already understand most of the conversation and speak the complete sentence,'You are completely wrong, knight, immediately terminate the contract, this is a misunderstanding,' she said at the time. "The Rose Knight recounted calmly six years ago. Past events,
"Misunderstanding." Elliott did not understand the meaning of this sentence at the time,
"Yes, a big misunderstanding." The black eyes of the Eastern woman passed through the knight's blond hair and looked at the rolling holy river. "The man I'm looking for is not my dwarf, but the opposite is true. , He is my enemy, no matter where you go to the end of the world, I will find him and use this sword to kill him personally..." Her slender fingers unconsciously clenched the hilt of the famous sword "Chi Kiss". There are sapphires in the sapphire. A faint storm rises,
"But... it's impossible." The knight was so shocked that he could not speak for a long time. He recalled that moonlight night, between the bright moonlight and the mountains and the tombs, the silver rose did light up the most beautiful in the world. The light, the color of the wonderful light, is called love, "...Please forgive us for our presumption, but the silver rose is a sacred token handed down in the era of the rose knight. After the blessing of the lord Sheila, it has an extraordinary magical power for love. It’s absolutely impossible to go wrong." He explained anxiously,
Long Ji glanced at him deeply, and the corners of her mouth floated with a sorrowful smile: "He is my enemy, the enemy of the entire Long Family, my hatred of him is filled here, so I can't tolerate any other feelings. "You can take out your rose again and test whether my faith is firm. I am the 14th generation of foreign affairs chief of the Long Family. I have nothing but murder." Mission, if I can slash my enemy, even if I die in the next second, there will never be any regrets."
The knight took out the silver rose. This time, the rose petals were coldly reflected in the sun, without a hint of luminescence, "But, that night... Could it be that we read it wrong." The sweat slipped along the tall bridge of the nose. Next, the new rose knight was confused, hesitated, and nervous without self-confidence. The unicorn paced restlessly in place,
"Go back, don't waste time on me." The Eastern woman's voice suddenly became soft. She stretched out her hand and gently stroked the unicorn's white mane. The sacred riding beast felt her kindness. Touching her arm affectionately with her cheek, "I know that you are a real knight, a real knight. You should not waste time on a hopeless woman like me. The Long Family Zuxun prevents anyone with the surname Long from leaving the Eastern Continent. , I alone, abandoning my name, set off alone as the torturer, I don’t need anyone to accompany, knight, thank you." Long Ji said softly, "Then, goodbye."
Shocks came from underfoot, low-hanging waves hitting the reef, the ferry has docked on the southern bank of the ancient disaster of the Holy River, the dark green river stands a newly-built wooden trestle bridge, the oriental woman leaped lightly on the trestle bridge, her figure is like twilight Low-flying petrel,
"Please wait, Miss Long Ji." Elliott said suddenly, "We have one last request...if possible."
The woman's back stopped. "I don't have much time." She turned her head slightly and looked at the tall knight on the ferry.
"Please forgive our waywardness." The unicorn kicked on the ground with four hoofs, the ferry obviously sank down, the ripples waved away on the calm water, the rose knight jumped on the trestle bridge and caught up with Long Ji's footsteps, The knight sitting on the saddle with a silver rose in his hand, said a little hastily: "It only takes ten minutes, Miss Long Ji, please tell the story with that man, from the moment of acquaintance until ten. Minutes are over, please, this is the last test method of the Rose Knight. If the silver rose will light up before the time is over, it means that the relationship does exist and the contract must be fulfilled; and if the opposite is true..."
"You can leave, right?...okay." Long Ji glanced at the long road snaking to the sky, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally nodded,
They stopped and rested at an inn on the south bank of the Holy River, drinking Vedic speciality wilt wine, watching the sun sink little by little into the broad waters of the West, Eastern women began to tell the story of their childhood, and the rose knight took out an exquisite The hourglass fell on the table, and the azure six-pointed star sand from the Palmer Plateau of the northern continent fell. Each gravel passed through the bottleneck, representing the passage of one second. 600 star sands were the last of the silver rose covenant. Deadline,
Long Ji didn’t want to talk about the past. Just thinking about the past made her gritted her teeth in pain. Three minutes later, she still failed to speak the first word. Elliott looked at the hourglass patiently. , Did not urge, finally, the oriental woman lowered her eyes and said this sentence: "He is a monster, he has been since childhood."
Her story begins. She is not proficient in the lingua franca of the Western Continent. Elliott, whose hometown is on the red earth plains and wandering on the mainland, also failed to fully understand the customs of the East. The background of the story seems very vague, with details. It’s not clear either, but even so, the story told by the Cavaliers made Pitchfork’s partners sigh repeatedly and secretly startled,
When Long Ji and Simian Longchang, the king of assassins, first met, they both had just turned five years old. The house was moved to the main house for training. In that year, Long Ji left her small courtyard, which was located in the northeast of the main house, at the end of the winding laneway, composed of three main rooms and two penthouses, and bid farewell to her mother. The woman who was obscure, wore a short moon-white coat and always smoking a hookah in her hand, rode a carriage through the maze of complex alleys between high walls. It took a short time to arrive. At the destination, the wheels were rolling, the carriage drove away on the bluestone ground, the five-year-old Long Ji looked at the empty courtyard and strangers in the courtyard, there was no half-sorrowful expression on the pink cheeks,
Twelve children, this is the fourteenth generation of the elite descendants of the Long Family’s family who meet their age and stimulate bleeding. They will spend their teenage years in this yard. They will not be allowed to leave until they reach the age of twelve. One of the strongest families among the seventeen families. There are a variety of incredible abilities hidden in the blood of the Long family clan. Coupled with unpredictable mutations due to personal physique and will, the strength of each awakened person is different. A teacher can teach these twelve children how to practice, they can only explore the mysteries in the blood alone,
Their courses are very simple. Every morning, the clerk teaches reading and writing homework. In the afternoon, they learn the Nine Laws of the Long Family according to their own interests. He will be sent to the north bank of Yunmengze, forty-five miles south of the Long Family Mansion, where he will fight wild beasts and beasts and gain valuable practical experience. The Long Family Shadow Sect Foreign Affairs Envoy will guard these noble descendants from a distance. , But unless it’s a matter of life and death, I will never reach out for help,
There are two girls among the twelve children. The other girl is named Long Yi, a descendant of Donglinghou, the second branch of the Zong family. She is a child with a pleasant appearance and a charming smile. Long Ji was self-reliant and did not live with Long Yi because of her gender. Therefore, when Long Yi died, she did not appear to be particularly sad. This indifference caused her to be excluded from a small circle.
Long Yi died on a night without stars and moon. No one knew what happened that night. When the morning light appeared the next day, people found her body in the middle of the yard with her small body tied up. At the top of the flagpole, there was supposed to be a red-bottomed dragon flag embroidered with a black dragon. In the morning light that day, it was indeed a stiff corpse covered with blood. Long Yi’s bloodline ability is called "pseudo mud" and it has been in the dragon family for hundreds of years. A unique ability that has never appeared in this time, she can summon the souls of ancestors and ancestors to attach to the black mud and paint mysterious verses. Those verses can accurately predict a person's death. Long Yi was the first when he was three years old. At the second awakening, he predicted that the Xingtang elder would die in a flood three days later. Everyone thought it was a joke at the time, but three days later, the Xingtang elder was caught in the enemy's battle and was imprisoned in a battle with the Lu family of Liang Sui. Yu Shuiweng suffocated and died,
This time, there are texts made of black mud on the slate under the flagpole. Without much effort, you can interpret that this verse predicts her own death. The other courtyard is in chaos, and the children begin to suspicion each other. Here It is the guarded house of the Long Family. If it weren't for the Long Family, who in this world could sneak into the deep house compound silently, kill one of the clan's children, and escape unscathed,
There were countless suspicious eyes on Long Ji, because when Long Yi’s body was transported away, she did not shed a single tear. Three days later, the chaos gradually subsided, and the other courtyard fell into a cold and strange atmosphere. It was night, the five-year-old Long Ji walked out of the hut alone, jumped onto the courtyard wall, sat and watched the moon, and let out a sigh that was not commensurate with her age. At this time, someone spoke behind her and said: "I know everything."
