Jianming Chaos

Chapter 252

Sure enough, when he came to the execution ground, Zhiming saw a shocking scene: several bolts of lightning struck straight down, splitting the executioner's steel knife, gallows and other facilities into pieces, turning them into piles of scrap iron.The shackles on all the Goguryeo people who were kneeling on the ground waiting to be executed were automatically broken.

"He...they have gods to protect their bodies! The Dragon God of Heaven is protecting them, let's retreat quickly!" An executioner took the lead and ran away.

The supervisors, soldiers and executioners scrambled to evacuate, for fear of offending the gods and being executed on the spot.

The dragon roared in the sky, the thunder ravaged the earth, and the entire practice field was blown up, like a demon destroying the world.

The Goguryeo people were rescued collectively, but they were furious and blind, and several people were chopped into pieces.Gao Meng saw Mu Yue coming from a distance, knowing that she summoned the Dragon God, he nodded his thanks.

However, when he saw Zhiming with her, Gao Meng was stunned.He didn't think about it for a while, and before he had time to think about it, he led the remnants to flee outside the palace.Along the way, lightning and thunder are the pioneers, and no one dares to stop them.

A supervisor hiding in the dark accidentally saw Muyue and thought, "Why did the chief of the Jibu (another name for Shenzhi Pavilion) come to the execution ground? He seems to be in a hurry? Isn't the man with him... "

After careful consideration, the supervisor decided to report the matter to Daisuke of the Ministry of Criminal Justice after the thunderstorm had passed.

The entire imperial palace was attacked by lightning, broken rocks and tiles flew all the way, and some small structures collapsed one after another, and the damage was close to that of a major earthquake.Tianyulongshen deliberately controlled the strength so as not to destroy the palace.

"Since Tianyulongshen has such power, why didn't he save them during the war just now?" Zhiming used his divine power to protect Muyue and came to a safe place, and asked.

"Although the power of the gods is boundless, they are also based on principles. When two sides fight, winning or losing depends on tactics and strength. Why should it save one side? If so, the gods can rely on the gods in future wars. The dragon god is because he can't see This group of people was saved only by the way the Prince used to do. However, I told it that if the Goguryeo people continue to hurt the people after leaving the palace, they will be punished by lightning immediately!" Muyue explained.

"The gods here are too powerful, and they are less restricted by the laws of heaven and earth, unlike the big man, who are too restricted." Zhiming didn't expect the geographical differences in the God Realm to be so great.

Mutsuki looked at him in amazement and said, "How do you know? Could it be...you are also the incarnation of God?"

"No, I'm just talking based on the facts. In Dahan, I haven't met someone like you who can directly summon the Dragon God to help." Zhiming couldn't reveal his true identity.

"Now that the Goguryeo people are safe, they will definitely meet up with friendly forces outside the capital and wait for orders. They usually act only after they get news from me. I will wait for the opportunity to launch the next war, but not today. Just wait and see, I will definitely pull it off." Down Himisa!" Mutsuki swore through gritted teeth.

"Calm down, don't get mad." Zhiming fanned her with his hands.He couldn't help but admire Mutsuki's ability. With one person's power, he could control a foreign army.

"Where is Master Sagi?" Mutsuki asked.

"I met General Fujita at the gate of the shrine just now, and said that the prince invited us to a celebration banquet, and he also talked about beheading, so I came to chase you. He is still over there."

"I'm afraid the situation will change. The prince is a person who can turn his face at any time. He doesn't know what I talked to you just now, and he might become suspicious. You should leave here quickly! The longer you stay in the palace, the more dangerous the factor will be." Daddy, it doesn't matter whether it's for you or me. Now that the celebration banquet is definitely cancelled, let's go!" Mutsuki issued a kind "exit order".

Zhiming nodded slightly, and asked, "Can we meet again in the future?"

"See you if you should, and if you don't have to, then there is no need to meet." Mu Yue is sometimes cheerful and sometimes indifferent, like a Gemini with dual personalities, which makes it difficult to adapt.

"...All right, then you take care." Zhiming said regretfully.

At this time, Zuo Mu rushed to the scene and was surprised to see that the surrounding area had turned into a post-earthquake scene.

"Where's Fujita?" Zhiming asked, ignoring the explanation.

"Looking at the situation, the Dragon God should be angry, right? Fujita and the others hid, so I took the opportunity to run over. It seems that the celebration banquet can't be held, right?" Zuo Mu said.

"We just finished discussing this matter. Let's go, it's time to leave." Zhiming said.

Sagi understood what Mutsuki meant, and said, "Master Shinji, thank you for providing us with so much information, and see you soon."

"You're welcome. If you have a chance to meet Cai Yan, please greet him." Mu Yue always cared about Cai Yan.

"Don't worry, I will." Zhiming felt a little bit reluctant to part with this unforgettable trip to the palace.

"...By the way, wait a moment." Muyue took out a sachet-like thing from her arms, handed it to Zhiming, and said, "This is an emergency kit, and I will open it when I need it."

"...Oh, there is also a 'parting gift'? Thank you." Zhiming carefully put away the kit, thanked him again, and ran away with Zuo Mu.

Mu Yue looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, as if she had a thousand words to say, but she had nowhere to appeal.She waved her hand, and the sky was as clear as before. This skill was much stronger than Kong Ming's "Borrowing the East Wind".

After leaving the palace, Zhiming was filled with emotion and said, "It's like a dream. I never thought I would leave the palace so soon. I always feel that there are still many things that I can't do in time. Ms. Muyue..."

"Stop thinking about the three thousand beauties in the harem, let's go." Afraid that he would turn around, Zuo Mu hurriedly pulled him forward.

The streets are still in chaos, and the mess after the war has not yet been cleaned up.The Goguryeo people seem to have withdrawn from the city, and they really dare not kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Seeing corpses covered with bamboo mats abandoned on the side of the road like rubbish, Zhiming felt very uncomfortable: People who live in the same world, why are there such big differences in fate?When will the troubled times end?

Zuo Mu found a soldier who was clearing the road, and asked in Yidu: "Brother Soldier, what is the highest mountain near here?"

The soldier turned his head sideways, looked at him vigilantly, and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

"Oh, I came from there, and now I can't find my way back." Zuo Mu made up a reason.

"Where did you come from? Who are you?" The soldier immediately stopped what he was doing and was about to draw his sword.He thought the other party was an undercover agent of the Goguryeo people.

"Xiufu, hurry up and clean it up. The weather is cloudy and sunny. It might rain. I don't want to walk in the rain." A person next to him urged.

The soldier saw that Zuo Mu didn't look like an enemy, so he told him the location without thinking too much.Zuo Mu thanked the soldiers, got two horses with Zhi Ming, and rode them straight to Shenyin Mountain, ten miles outside the capital.

In the evening, they came near the foot of the mountain, and saw the towering mountain peaks from a distance, and the top could not be seen at a glance.From time to time, there are strange sounds in the mountains, sometimes like howling wolves, sometimes like howling devils, which makes people shudder.

There is a simple small tea house built with bamboo sheds, which is specially designed for passers-by to stop and drink tea to quench their thirst.The tea drinkers seem to be no strangers to the strange sounds coming from the mountains, drinking and chatting nonchalantly.

The two tied the horse and sat down.Zuo Mu asked the shop waiter to fetch a pot of hot tea.

The guests were all talking about what happened in the capital today, and the news had obviously spread like wildfire.From the content of his chat, we can know that this is not the first time that the Goguryeo people have attacked Yacheng.Zuo Mu translated to Zhiming one by one.

"I didn't expect these Goguryeo people to dare to kill them across the ocean. It's really unbelievable. Unless they knew in advance that they could get the blessing of the Dragon God....Yes, Mu Yue must have controlled them through the Dragon God, otherwise explain No way." Zhiming said thoughtfully.

Zuo Mu took a sip of tea and said, "Actually, I don't quite understand: Since the Goguryeo people are backed by the Dragon God, why can't the Yamatai Kingdom be destroyed?"

"Muyue told me before that although the dragon god has boundless mana, he will never deliberately take sides. The Goguryeo people massacred the people, but the dragon god did not come forward to stop it, which proves that the human world can only be managed by humans in the final analysis. The power of the gods can't have a decisive effect. This is also the reason for Muyue's distress, otherwise she would have killed the prince long ago." Zhiming understands Muyue's helplessness very well.

"I always feel that those Goguryeo people have not retreated, they are still lurking nearby, waiting for the next opportunity to attack. I will not attack again, just as the dragon god said, I am afraid that the more you help, the more you will get. It’s all over, it’s our appearance that saved his life.” Zuo Mu looked at the front in ecstasy, and said.

"It's all in the past, let's focus on the next step." Zhiming poured tea for him, and said, "Are you sure the queen is on the top of this mountain?"

"I'm not sure, but according to Mutsuki, it's probably close to ten. Looking around, only this mountain is the closest to the heaven. Besides, apart from those strange noises, I have a faint feeling that there is a demonic energy coming from the mountain. It might be her." It was emitted from the 'Oni Samurai' mentioned earlier." Zuo Mu believed in his own judgment.

"You also feel the devilish energy?" Zhiming felt that Shen'an Mountain was surrounded by evil spirit just now.

"Yes. Don't forget, I'm a Demon World Walker." Zuo Mu called the waiter over and asked, "Is it convenient to go to the God's Dark Mountain at night?"

When the waiter heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't go up the mountain at night! There are monsters in the mountains who can eat people! Didn't you hear these terrifying voices? It's the ghosts of the passers-by who were eaten screaming!"

His voice attracted the eyes of the tea drinkers around him.

"Hush! What are you talking about? There are monsters?" Zuo Mu motioned him to keep his voice down.

"Yes, there were people who went up the mountain at night before, and never came down again! I heard that they were eaten by monsters and left only bones!" Although the waiter deliberately lowered his volume, what he said still made people feel numb.

"It's all rumors, right? If there were monsters on the mountain, would you still dare to open a tea house here?" Zuo Mu said deliberately.

"What I said is true! It's just that these monsters never seem to leave this mountain, and they only move at night." Xiaoer Dian seemed to be convinced of this rumor.

"When did the monsters appear?" Zuo Mu thought that even if there were monsters, it would be impossible to know them recently; in this case, why would anyone dare to go up the mountain at night?

"I don't know the details. Anyway, I just heard about it from some customers a while ago. I haven't heard of it before. It's really weird! Of course, it may be a wild beast, and it's normal for wild beasts to eat people."

"Have you ever seen some men in military uniform go up the hill?"

"Military uniform? I haven't heard of it. I've never been to the mountain, I only heard about it from guests."

"Can you go up the mountain during the day?"

"It's usually fine during the day, maybe monsters and beasts are afraid of the sun. But... guest officer, why did you go up the mountain? If you want to go to the next-door feudal town, you can take a detour. No one dares to go up this mountain. It's dark and gloomy Evil door. From the looks of it, you must be outsiders, right?" The shop clerk looked them up and down and asked.

"What kind of evil method?" Zuo Mu didn't respond to him, but continued to ask.

"Anyway... I heard that most of the people who came down from the mountain were bewitched by evil spirits and committed suicide not long after. It is said that they were possessed by those dead souls, causing..."

Before the waiter could finish speaking, he was summoned by other tea customers and said, "Anyway, remember, try not to go up the mountain; if you must go up, please be sure to choose a bright day, otherwise there will be no bones left! And, remember to go to the mage after going down the mountain Get rid of evil spirits, or something big will happen!"

Zhiming couldn't understand what they were talking about, so he asked Zuo Mu.Zuo Mu translated it according to the original words.

"Don't think too much about it, the queen is definitely playing tricks and scaring the people so that they dare not go up the mountain, so they have no chance to get close to her. She must be hiding on the top of the mountain doing something shady! Let's go, we don't believe in evil !" Zhiming drank the tea in his cup in one go, and was about to get up.

At this time, a person at the next table said in unproficient Chinese: "The two adults are going to go up the mountain at night? Be careful not to be haunted by evil spirits!"

The two turned their heads and saw a mysterious knight wearing a hat and haori, with two long and short knives on his waist; the hat was drooping, making it difficult to see his face clearly.

"Your Excellency, are you drinking tea here alone? Didn't you ask your name?" Zhiming intuitively determined that this person was not an ordinary person.

"I'm a rogue, Higashino Musashi." The mysterious guest nodded slightly in salute.

"Your Excellency is a local?" Zuo Mu also politely returned a samurai salute and asked.

Musashi took off his bamboo hat lightly, revealing a face with scars that had been through vicissitudes, showing the beauty of a mature man under the reflection of the setting sun.He said: "I am a stateless person. Both of my parents have died since I was young. I have never known where I belong. I just want to remind you that if you want to go up the mountain tonight, you must remember three principles: First, don't look back at the past at will; Two, don't save people at will; three, don't respond to voices from unknown sources at will."

"Thank you for reminding me, it's a pity I couldn't record it, so I can only remember it in my heart." Zhiming thanked with cupped fists.

"Listen to the tone, have you ever been to the mountains? Are there really monsters in the mountains?" Zuo Mu wanted to know the details.

Musashi smiled without answering, just said "I will see you later", left a copper coin on the table, and left.

"Strange person." Zhiming said, looking at Musashi's back.
