Thirty-Four: Murals
At the hour of You, it was raining and the sky in Ping'anfang was completely dark.
The lanterns under the eaves of the restaurants and restaurants were swaying in the rain. When the light was pressed by the rain, it could only barely shine a light of about a ft.
There were a lot of guests on the Jingshui Tower, and the singing girls who were drinking and sitting were still performing in the seats. However, in this weather, no matter how cheerful the sound of the pipa sounded dumb.
Dr. Jiu wiped the oil stains on the table with a towel, and couldn't help but secretly look at the girl sitting next to the window on the second floor.
The girl had a cold and charming face, with long and narrow eyebrows, lazy and sharp.
She was wearing men's clothing, but her body was outlined even more delicately. If she hadn't even worn a knife, she would have been going up to talk to her.
However, the people of Dayong are martial, and everyone knows that a lone woman is as famous as a monk and a Taoist monk, and are both characters that cannot be provoked.
So when the girl sat by the window, the guests later sat far away from him, and a circle of tables were empty near that location.
Dr. Jiu didn't dare to look at it too much. Women, especially beautiful women, cannot gain a foothold in the world without being cruel, so there is a saying that the femme fatale is that this beauty has a horizontal knife and a barrier knife on her body, but they are all murderers.
But after looking away, Dr. Jiu couldn't help thinking, she always looked out the window, who was waiting for?
Tu Shanyi retracted her gaze looking out the window, grabbed a tea bowl with one hand and shook it gently, watching a vortex rolling out of the water.
Xunning Palace is this vortex. Once she is involved, she will never be able to get rid of it like the tea leaves in the cup, but she is already in the cup and has no choice.
She looked out the window, a figure wearing a rain hat and a straw raincoat highlighted in the night rain, and then walked into Jingshui Tower.
Tushanyi put down the teacup.
As soon as the man in a straw raincoat entered Jingshui Tower, he strode to the second floor, waved his hand to drive away the Dr. Jiu who was coming up, and walked straight to the opposite side of Tushanwei to sit down.
His straw raincoat was dripping with water, and under the rain hat was a face like an eagle. The extremely deep nasolabial folds indicate that this man was about forty years old.
"It's really charming."
The man looked Tu Shanri's face straight and praised her without any concealment.
But his eyes were very calm and even a little disgusting.
"Where is the stuff?"
Tu Shanyi didn't care about the man's attitude, but just looked at him sarcastically, disgusted with demons but cooperated with demons, just setting up a archway in front of a bitch.
"The layout, defense, and secret passages of Xunning Palace are all on this picture."
The man stretched out his hand from under the straw raincoat and placed a silk picture on the table.
After doing this, he got up and left without looking at Tu Shanyi again.
Tu Shanyi picked up the silk picture and watched the man disappear at the entrance of the stairs.
She turned her eyes out the window again, and a moment later, the figure in a straw raincoat left Jingshui Tower and sank into the rainy night.
Tu Shanyi pondered for a while and took out a white jade bottle the size of a thumb from her arms.
Covering it with his palm, he pulled out the red cloth bottle plug, and a white fox the size of an index finger drilled out.
"Come with him."
The bottle fox screamed, jumped out of the window, and fell onto the lantern.
Another leap, landing on the flagpole not far away.
A pair of dark eyes stared at the figure who was leaving in a straw raincoat.
Suddenly, the straw raincoat moved.
A cold light suddenly flashed.
A small sword that was only five inches long passed through the hem of the cherry leaves and cut the raindrops.
Wherever the sword tip touched, the raindrops suddenly condensed into ice.
This sword pierced hundreds of raindrops, quietly pierced the wine flag, pierced the bottle fox's small head, and penetrated from its tail without any trace of blood, and then stabbed to the window.
The sword was so fast that when it stabbed three feet from the straw raincoat on the street to Tushanyi's eyes, the rain outside the Jingshui Tower only dropped a few inches.
The sword was silent, as fast as a thunderbolt, but it stabbed Tu Shanyi in front of him, and suddenly turned around and shot back at the same speed, pierced through the rain curtain again, and returned to the raincoat room.
It's all in a flash.
The guest of the straw raincoat put down his hem and continued to move forward.
The petite bottle fox fell from the top of the wine flag to the ground.
A pedestrian holding an umbrella felt a little strange when he saw Bai Ying, and at the same time he heard the crackling sound on the umbrella surface.
The pedestrian was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand from the edge of the umbrella, and just caught the ice particles that had fallen from the edge of the umbrella. He stood in the street for a while. Why did the spring rain in Xuandu cause hail?
A raccoon cat foraging jumped out, picked up the corpse of the bottle fox and ran into the shadow quickly.
The ice particles melt rapidly in the rain.
All traces were erased, and in a moment, many things happened, and it seemed that nothing had happened.
A sudden chill enveloped everyone's hearts and dissipated suddenly, but the chill immediately dissipated. The restaurant suddenly became quiet. The chattering and laughing drinkers stopped the topic, and the tender croaking dancing on the pipa also stopped.
Everyone looked at each other, surprised by the sudden dead silence, but the dead silence was soon broken again. The singer played the pipa, and the noisy sound of the pipa caused another excitement.
Tu Shanyi lowered her eyebrows, held the right hand of the horizontal knife handle, finally let go, put the silk map into her arms, got up and left the restaurant.
...
For the people of Xuandu, Xunning Palace is a place with dragon energy. The twelve emperors of the Dayong Kingdom once governed the government here. The country protected the dragon energy, and the demons dared not invade it.
Tu Shanyi, who is a demon clan, knew that what was protecting the palace was not the so-called dragon energy of the country, but a large formation. This formation was very mysterious. There were rumors that the formation suppressed a dragon vein.
However, for many years, the demon clan has not explored the news about this formation. Some people even doubt whether this formation exists. Monsters are constantly sent to test it, and there will be no results.
However, in the past twenty years until today, Tushanyi is the only one sent to break the formation.
The so-called breaking the formation is just a test of life, and Tu Shanyi was prepared for this.
She went north along the Fang Road east of Ping'anfang, passed the outer wall of the imperial city, and avoided the Dageng people along the way, and then saw the palace wall of Xunning Palace.
Now Xunning Palace is just a palace for worshipping ancestors. There are no one living in the palace. Although there are night patrolers on the wall, they are not strictly guarded. Tushanyi waited quietly in the middle of the night and found a space for changing the whistle and sneaked into the palace city. When she climbed down the wall silently, she suddenly felt a palpitation.
The palaces were crawling in the night rain, with their high eaves and teeth ferocious and majestic. The rain washed the animals in the eaves, poured down from the glazed tiles, and were spit out by the Chiwen under the stone railing.
Tu Shanyi held the handle of the knife tightly and was soaked all over. The rain was heavy at some point, and thunder even rolled across the sky.
Her heart throbbed, but what's the danger?
Bang!
Thunder flashed by!
With the moment of lightning, Tu Shanyi looked back and saw that the palace walls were full of murals.
A strange beast and ferocious bird, with its scales and horns!
A coldness flashed in her narrow eyes, and she took a step back.
Chapter completed!
