"Fairy, are you saying that the reason why I lost my memory for many days is because I was possessed by an evil spirit?" Yao Hua was stunned and said in disbelief.
To know that someone who can be called a "demon" is at least at the level of "supernatural power", how could she be able to attract such a being?
"Oh, ever since you got those eyes, you have been marked by the descendants of the 'Blood Moon'. As long as it wants to, it can send distractions to you at any time." Zheng Qing responded expressionlessly, "Use External power always comes with a price!"
I see... But I didn't have a choice at the beginning... I'm not like a fairy. You come from a noble family. You can't buy the "Alchemy Fairy" refining elixir, so you can only use some materials of unknown origin... Yao Hua With a wry smile, he stopped dwelling on the issue and asked, "Fairy, you said this neighborhood is the only exit from the 'Uncanny Realm'?"
Zheng Qingyan nodded slightly and said: "Yes, this space was created by my elders with the power of 'Dong Xuan', so that 'weird' sealed this place and even removed a 'prop' that was originally placed here. They all moved to other places to avoid being discovered by the monks who fell into the "Uncanny Realm".
"And the 'evil' possessing you, like this 'strange', is closely related to the 'Blood Moon', so it took control of your body, broke away from your captain, and took the initiative to block the gap.
"Unfortunately, it is no match for me."
Yao Hua just watched the "Yinglong Fairy" inspire a stream of thunder, chopping the red-eyed ghosts that had chased her to the sky and into the ground into ashes, and felt that her words were so convincing.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Yao Hua suddenly thought of something and asked quickly:
"Then...how should Captain and the others come out?
"Can I go bring them here?"
Zheng Qingyan shook her head and said: "This block has been blocked by the 'weird' one. It is currently in a state where you can't get in but not get out... I have no problem with my 'supernatural power', but once I leave here, this gap is likely to be blocked." If you move the location, even I won’t be able to find it back.”
Seeing Yao Hua's face darken, Zheng Qingyan comforted her with a rare kindness: "But don't worry, he will bring everyone out if he is inside!"
"Him?" Yao Hua looked at Zheng Qingyan blankly.
The corners of Zheng Qingyan's mouth were slightly raised, like ice and snow melting, and she revealed a beautiful smile: "You should have heard of him... 'Blood Sword Master' Zhao Chen."
…
"'Blood Sword Master' Zhao Chen?"
After the fourth day came, Qiao Xi, the captain of the "Foreign Camp" team who finally managed to reach the palace, had an expression of disbelief on his face when he heard the reasons why Zhao Zhan, Mo Qiu, Feng Cang and others had done nothing.
Fortunately, these people have stationery with complete "rules" recorded in their hands, but they don't take any action and just wait for others to come to rescue them?
Moreover, no matter how famous Zhao Chen is and how great his potential is, he is only capable of practicing orifice refining. What use can he have in the "Uncanny Realm"?
It is better to count on him than on the real "Dong Xuan" outside!
Now they should work hard to save themselves!
Taking a deep breath and trying not to curse, Qiao Xi looked at Ning Meng, who was holding a "rules letter" and whose appearance was obviously similar to the princess of Luoyue Kingdom, and said after careful consideration:
"Miss Ning, what are the 'rules' during the day?"
Ning Meng's crimson eyes met with his, and she said bluntly: "The bride price comes to Yueting."
"The entry of bride price to Yueting..." Qiao Xizhou frowned, "Yueting is easy to understand, it should be referring to the Luoyue City Palace.
"But where is the bride price? We didn't see it when we came in just now."
As he said that, he turned his head and glanced at several of his team members. One of them immediately understood and went out at a very fast speed, running towards the various gates of the palace to investigate.
His feet are extremely fast, almost as fast as ordinary magic monks without flying spells. It is obvious that his superpower lies in both legs.
About two minutes later, the man returned to the main palace, shook his head at Qiao Xi and said, "Captain, there is nothing at the entrance of the palace."
"Nothing..." Qiao Xi's brows furrowed even deeper at this time, and she couldn't figure out what the phrase "betrothal gift comes to Yueting" meant.
At this moment, Mo Qiu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly asked: "Captain Qiao, you said before that the 'Yao Hua' in your team was replaced, and you deliberately introduced evil spirits into the house where you were originally... …
"So how did you escape?"
"How did you escape?" Qiao Xi glanced at the martial arts master who was said to be able to contact the "Blood Sword Master" Zhao Chen, and replied thoughtfully:
"My special power 'Purple Fire' is naturally capable of restraining ghosts, and every member of our 'Foreign Camp' has a special skill and a tacit understanding of cooperation, so we can break through the siege and escape into a safe house."
Mo Qiu's eyes were blank for a few seconds, and then he said: "If those ghosts were only at the level of refining the orifice, you would have no problem... But there were quite a few of the ghosts on the first night with magical powers and even Gangsha levels. Even those with... More than half of the Thai and Western wizards at several levels of mana have been lost. It’s unjustifiable that no one in your team is dead except for ‘Yao Hua’.”
At this time, Qiao Xi had already seen that Mo Qiu was asking questions on behalf of the "Blood Sword Master" Zhao Chen, and this question was indeed where he was confused before, so he asked: "Then what do you think the reason is? Isn't it? Are we lucky?"
"It's really good luck..." Mo Qiu was silent for about half a minute before continuing, "Do you think there is a possibility that your team is the 'bride price' for the 'princess'!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then collectively turned their attention to the members of the alien camp team, and they all showed a look of surprise.
"Enter the Betrothal Gift to the Moon Palace", their team was the only "thing" that entered the "Moon Palace" during the day!
Qiao Xi had obviously thought of this, and his face became ugly, because he actually thought this was very reasonable...
"Everyone in your 'foreign camp' has special powers, which may be the reason why they can be used as 'betrothal gifts'." Mo Qiu said this with a complex look in his eyes.
Because she actually has "superpowers" just like the members of these "foreign camp".
Since they are the "betrothal gifts", then what are they?
Dowry?
It doesn't seem impossible...
Feng Cang, who had the fastest mind, also realized this and murmured:
"Perhaps... we are no longer 'human' after entering this 'uncanny realm'.
"So, those palace ladies during the day ignore us?
"Haha, we have been in this palace from the beginning. Are they just some 'ornaments' for the princess when she gets married?"
After Qiao Xi lowered his head and pondered for a moment, he nodded and said: "It is indeed very possible... The place where our team first appeared was probably the residence of Zhao Song's wedding team.
"It seems that the 'Blood Sword Master' is not only powerful, but also very intelligent!"
After a pause, he looked at Ning Meng and continued: "The only 'person' among us may be Miss Ning, so only she has the complete 'rule book'."
At this time, Mo Qiu's eyes became empty again, and after a while he said: "No, there is actually a 'person'."
"Who is it?" Qiao Xi asked.
"The actor who plays the groom in the wedding." Mo Qiu replied.
…
On the street, Zhao Chen, who was leisurely strolling on the "Black Tiger", heard Gong Yun's voice beneath him: "Groom? Who do you think will play the role of the 'Taizu of Zhao and Song Dynasty'?"
"Taizu Zhao and Song Dynasty?" Zhao Chen smiled, shook his head and said, "You should also know that in this prototype incident of 'Uncanny Realm', Song Taizu did not show up at all. It was his queen who came forward to destroy the country."
"Indeed... Then where did the groom come from?" Gong Yun asked in confusion.
"It's very simple, because someone wants to be the groom and want to complete the wedding." Zhao Chen sighed and continued, "What do you think if the princess really had a secret meeting with a man before marriage, what would she do?"
Gong Yun thought for a while and replied: "It should be to cut off the contact."
"Why?" Zhao Chen asked with a smile.
"Because with Luoyue Kingdom's national strength at the time, there was no way it could bear the consequences of breaking the contract... That princess must have the overall situation in mind.
"Even if she doesn't think about the overall situation, there must be someone who asks her to think about the overall situation." Gong Yun guessed, "'Day loses the wedding dress and keeps the promise'. Since you guessed that day and night are opposites, the so-called 'keeping the promise' actually means Is it 'breaking a promise'?"
"You're very smart. In fact, 'breaking a promise' is a minor matter...I guess something more serious must have happened that night, otherwise the wedding dress wouldn't have turned into a 'bloody dress'..." Zhao Chen reminded .
"You mean to say that there is a guy who may be the lover of one of the princesses in Luoyue Kingdom, who did something more drastic after that one-night lover proposed breaking up?" Gong Yun's doubts suddenly became clear, "So, That man ran out of Luoyue City, and when he came back, he found that the country and the princess had been destroyed by the queen of Zhao Song. Only then, in despair, was he contaminated by the 'strange' and became its carrier?"
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Zhao Chen shook his head again, "For Queen Zhao Song, the 'True Monarch of Demonic Clouds' to destroy a country, there must be some big problem in Luoyue City, and in the end it had to be wiped out. .”
Gong Yun was stunned when she heard this, and then asked in surprise: "Isn't it because the queen was jealous that she destroyed the Luoyue Kingdom?"
"Do you think a True Lord Shengxuan would personally take action over such a trivial matter?
"What's more, if he is jealous, then when the king of Luoyue Kingdom has this idea, True Lord Moyun will have already taken action. How can he wait until the wedding day?
"If such a thing is done, it will not be good for Zhao Song's reputation."
When Zhao Chen said this, he said with certainty: "There must have been a big problem in Luoyue City at that time... and even 'Weird' had been recruited!
"Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?"
"Then what do you think will go wrong?" Gong Yun asked curiously.
Zhao Chen spread his hands and said, "How did I know? Isn't this under investigation..."
"Black Tiger" turned back to look at Zhao Chen, who was leisurely surveying the surrounding scenery, and complained helplessly: "You call this an investigation?"
"Of course!" Zhao Chen smiled mysteriously, deliberately leaned down and said in her ear, "And I have already made certain discoveries... For example, the sentence 'Feng Guan falls in Wutong Courtyard at night', do you think why Feng Guan went to Wutong? A cold palace like the hospital?"
…
When the fifth night came, Qiao Xi, who learned that she and others were "betrothal gifts", no longer hesitated and rushed into the night with her team members, intending to find the "things" mentioned in the previous "rules".
For example, "Phoenix crown falls in Wutong courtyard at night", such as "Waiting for dawn in Yuehua Palace", there are places that clearly need to be explored.
What's more, this is already the fifth night, and the seventh night is already very close!
He is not Feng Cang and others. He will trust Zhao Chen so much. Even if he admits the intelligence of "Blood Sword Master", he will not wait for his rescue.
Your destiny is in your own hands!
The "Purple Fire" wrapped around him caused many ghosts to retreat. However, this time, he, who had been paying attention to the situation, keenly realized that there were indeed no "mana" and "gangsha" level ghosts around him.
Is this taking care of the "bride price"?
Qiao Xi laughed at herself, then her eyes became determined, and she led her team members straight to Wutong Courtyard.
After all, you have to stay in the "Yuehua Palace" until dawn, so it is naturally better to go to the "Wutong Courtyard" to get the "Phoenix Crown" first.
The purple flames form a ring, burning all ghosts and ghosts that dare to get close;
In the ring, the eight team members each held weapons, emitting golden light, emitting Sanskrit sounds, or activating firearms to continuously kill nearby evil spirits.
But instead of decreasing, the number of ghosts surrounding them continued to increase, and even vaguely formed a military formation.
The only good news is that there are indeed no higher-level ghosts appearing.
However, even if the "Li Gui" lets loose, as time goes by, it will become more and more difficult for the members of the alien camp team to cope. If it were not for Qiao Xi's "Purple Fire" protection, I am afraid they would have begun to reduce their numbers.
Fortunately, the palace gate of "Wutong Courtyard" was already in sight at this time.
The so-called "Wutong Courtyard" is the cold palace of Luoyue Palace. After coming here, the number of ghosts has significantly reduced.
After Qiao Xi breathed a sigh of relief, she finally had time to think about a question:
That is why the courtyard with such a good meaning is used as a "cold palace".
Is it because that king doesn't like "Indus" or "Phoenix"?
However, I remember that in Taixi, the vampire family and the phoenix family have been in alliance for thousands of years - the phoenix in the west is a kind of phoenix, and this Luoyue Kingdom must be inseparable from the vampire family!
After several people climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard, the ghosts that had been chasing them also stopped and seemed to not dare to approach this "cold palace".
Seeing this, Qiao Xi and other well-informed team members felt their hearts sink, because this kind of behavior often means that something more terrifying is entrenched in this yard!
However, at this time, the arrow was already on the string and had to be fired, so Qiao Xi signaled to the team members and asked them to be responsible for responding. He mustered up the courage to go to the door of the main room of the palace, reached out and pushed open the unlocked door. of double wooden doors.
