The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 149: The Journey of Four (Part 2)
"Wait a minute... this evil breath..." Jonah stopped,
Only a carriage parked in the backyard, a rather tall carriage. Compared with the "Midnight Star", a steam-powered carriage like a giant steel behemoth, this pure wooden structure, with Eastern arches and cornices, has two colors of gold and green. Painted, it looks like a strange carriage with four wheels under a pavilion. It’s not surprising. The rear of the car is a wide platform covered with a pile of gray linoleum. It is far away. , Jonah felt an unknown atmosphere exuding the underground. This feeling was both familiar and unfamiliar. He could not help holding onto the staff,
"The first-time guests will inevitably be scared." The broker rubbed his hands and said, "Lao Wang Lao Wang, please explain to the distinguished guests quickly."
The round face of the coachman old Wang has two drunken dizziness. He speaks a bit of accent in the lingua franca of the Western Mainland, but he is still fluent: "I am Wang Huaiqin, the 28th generation of the outer sect of the Tianshidao. I couldn’t learn a weapon, I was kicked out of the mountain gate, relying on the little master left behind, I have no other ability, I am good at refining this thing to pull the cart, with me, this animal can’t make waves. Everyone, don’t be afraid. My carriage is called “Chuan Ding”, and it’s the only one in the whole continent.” While talking, he walked over to untie the rope and tore off the linoleum cloth. A huge winch was installed on the platform. , The winch rotates the gear through the vertical axis, and finally drives the two wheels behind. The power source of this "human-powered carriage" is a humanoid behemoth. Covered with black iron armor, his head, hands, and feet are locked by shackles and locked with iron chains as thick as arms. The head is tangled indiscriminately by iron chains, and the five senses are invisible. As soon as he feels the sun, this giant man's body He started to squirm, and his mouth let out a low growl, which drove the iron chains all over his body to rattle and rattle,
"Five-faced Corpse." Jonah exclaimed. In Suiyang City, the Pitchfork Squad had briefly fought against the Five-faced Corpse. This kind of monster with no fear of swordsmen and infinite power left his heart lingering, who knew it was here. Turned out to be the engine of a carriage,
Old Wang, the coachman, gave him a surprised look. "The guests are knowledgeable. These are five corpses. They are unnamed corpses legally bought from Yizhuang (the public institution where the corpses are parked). The five-faced corpse is tireless and very powerful. It is most suitable for pulling a cart. Guests only need to not go to the trunk to provoke it. In addition, every day when it is ugly, I will cast spells to infuse heaven and earth aura. At that time Everyone just sleep and don’t watch, otherwise the anger will drive this stuff crazy."
Jonah couldn’t help but said, “Is Tianshi Tao a folk religion? Why haven’t you seen the temple of Tianshi Tao along the way? Where do the believers usually move? Who controls the five-faced corpse? I have seen a'Pill-Swallowing Five-faced Corpse' refined from the corpse of a believer. It is really terrifying..."
The old king of the coachman glanced at him again, "That's impossible, guest, the driving method of swallowing the five-faced corpse was cut off in my ancestor's generation. Since the demise of the heavenly master, who dares to be on the street? Come on,...please get in the car."
The group of people got on the carriage one after another. The space in the carriage is quite spacious. The two couches are placed opposite each other, which can accommodate four people to ride and sleep comfortably. Jona and Long Shenlin sit in the front position, in black. The man and the magician sat across from each other, "Everyone has a good journey, if you have a chance, I will see you again." Broker Zhao waved his hands enthusiastically, and the driver Wang sat on the seat on the roof of the car, hitting the whip with his right hand. With a crisp sound, the left hand pinches the mantra: "Go to the city of Suosang, it is not early today, the goal is Nanyiyi station one hundred and fifty miles away, the guest sits firmly, and rests at dinner, as anxious The law...walk." The five-faced corpse whimpered and turned the winch, the shaft made a crunching noise, and the cork-wrapped wheels pushed the ground. The carriage "Chuanding" began to move slowly, as the five-faced corpse turned again and again. With the winch, the car speeds up quickly, rushes out of the alley, turns onto the post road, and the wheels rotate smoothly on the smooth, mirror-like post road, leaving the South Second Post behind in a blink of an eye.
The four people each occupy the corner of the carriage, their eyes bumping in the air, and the atmosphere is a bit embarrassing. The man in black appears to be quite alert to the magician, sitting far away, and from time to time delivers an unintelligible one to Jonah. Eyes; the fifth-level fire magician is lying on the couch with a big grin, resting on his staff, looking at this, looking at that, whispering and don't know what to say to himself; Long Shenlin is holding the famous sword "Gaotao" "Cracked vigilantly and did not speak, the astrologer lowered his head to think about this weird journey, thinking about things in a mess,
To find a chance to be alone with the man in black, the best way is to secretly agree a time with him after everyone is asleep, and the magician has not been hostile to himself, has not discovered his identity, or Not a member of the Brotherhood, or pretending to be harmless, but quietly waiting for the opportunity to take action. One of the fire magicians who impressed Jonah the most was the Golden Hammer Legion of the Zawi Empire who encountered in the Western Continent Cherry Crossing. Long, the fire magician Menakmacher, if it weren’t for the "dark fire" Jeff Ta’s rescue, the bruised pitchfork squad was almost wiped out by the strong man, but now it’s different from the past. One thing conveyed confidence to Jonah. It was the fifth-level fire-aspect astrologer badge issued by the Association of Astrologers. Yes, I am now a fifth-level astrologer. If you have to fight...you can only believe in yourself,
Jonah stared at the magician, clutching the staff Sirafauna tightly, but the magician took the initiative to speak: "What is your name, kid, this journey can be very long, how do you chat with each name? Ah."
"Oh, me." The 17-year-old was panicked and pointed to the tip of his nose. He didn't expect to give himself a pseudonym. Now he got confused. "My, my name is... Asai, I am Asai, sir, the son of a farmer from the Western Continent, wants to go to Pingyin City to find relatives."
Xiaolong simply replied: "I am Lu Zishuo, a member of the Lu family in Pingyin." Jona knew that Lu family was a puppet of the Long family. Among the seventeen families in the East, it was a relatively influential family, and this identity was not considered attractive. Note that it is not easy to be underestimated, it is a very appropriate disguise,
The **** face of the magician with stiff muscles squeezed out a smile line: "Oh, Asai, what's this name... A Westerner, an Easterner, two people go to find relatives together, what is the relative's name? Ah, the young and light one is quite rich. Is the one holding the staff a mage? The one holding the sword is a swordsman. How many level."
"...It's just an ordinary cane, I'm... an accountant." Jonah replied quickly,
"I am a sword sharpener." Long Shenlin replied smoothly,
"Accountant and sword sharpener, hum." The fire magician stretched out his right hand as if to shake hands with the two teenagers, but remembered something, and quickly retracted his hand, "I'm certified by the association. The fifth-level great magician, you can call me Master Basda. In addition, I am also a senior deacon of the Brotherhood. Do you know the Brotherhood? I don’t know. I don’t know." He looked around triumphantly,
The black-clothed man’s eyes immediately condensed like needles, and the temperature in the carriage dropped several degrees. Jonah hurriedly waved his hand and said, “We know, Master Busta, we just want to reach Suosang safely. Along the way, please take care of you......"
"Of course I want to take care of it. The Magicians Association is in Pingyin City. I don't take care of you who will take care of it." Master Basda shook his head at the two teenagers, "You need to study more when you go out. Learn from a strong man like me, one day, you will be able to go on the right path and become useful to the world... Being a magician is not easy. In addition to natural sensitivity and control, you have to He has a clever mind, a broad mind, noble quality, and excellent mathematical ability. Without any of them, there is no way to rise to the height of a great magician. Hahahaha..."
Long Shenlin sighed quietly, and turned his head out of the window with a sword in his arms. Jonah responded with a wry smile, sweating, "I'm going to rest." At this time, the man in black finally opened his mouth to help them please. Deadlock, leaning on the carriage with his arms, said coldly,
"Cut, it's boring." Master Busta took a sip and swung his head on the soft couch. Within half a minute, the first snoring sounded.
At this moment, Jonah suddenly felt his body fluttering as if he was about to leave his body, "...listener." He whispered in surprise, relaxed, his surroundings quickly dimmed, and the world became a hazy phantom. , Four flames of different colors gradually lit up. It was the fire of the souls of the other three passengers and the coachman. Jonah found something worth noting, but the listener’s voice interrupted his momentary confusion: "About Accept."
"Miss Rose, is that you." The 17-year-old boy vibrated in his soul excitedly,
"I am a listener." The same emotionless soul ripples, but it is obviously not Rose Rose's voice, "Too much interference, communication is short, don't ask questions, listen carefully."
"Where have Miss Rose been, who are you." Jonah said in astonishment,
The listener ignored his question, "Great changes are happening, everything in the prophecy will come quickly, and what happens to you will speed up everything. Jonah, you will face great danger. The ghost has already Fully launch, but unable to contend with the enemy head-on. The protector is about to reach you. More importantly, it is to recognize where you are going. Only you can help you. Good luck to you, precious blood of Segles Heir, goodbye."
"Wait a minute, I haven't yet..." Jonah called out anxiously. The surroundings gradually turned brighter, and the communication was over. This was the shortest conversation. The new listener did not convey any clear messages at all. , This communication only makes the astrologer even more confused,
The world returned to its appearance, the magician’s snoring stopped, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at Jonah, then fell asleep again,
