After waiting for someone to leave for a while, the evasive jailer came over.
The prison door is closed, the migration to the fifth domain has come to an end, but preparations for the enthronement ceremony of the new capital are in full swing.
A new world, a new era, seems to be coming soon. The world is filled with the atmosphere of no war in the future, at least this is the propaganda to the people of the world.
There is no more war, which is indeed exciting news for the people of the world. Even if many people's lives are difficult or even unsustainable, they still have the confidence to persevere and hope to persevere until a better day comes.
All people and things seem to suddenly take on a new breath...
Peach Blossom Spring, under the peach blossom trees as brilliant as the clouds.
When the wind came, Shang Shuqing raised her head to greet the colorful fallen flowers. Her face was filled with beauty, and she stretched out her hand to take a petal.
Niu Youdao is back, back to the place where he has never been since he left, where he spent five years.
At this moment, he was standing next to Shang Shuqing, accompanying her, looking at the beauty on her face, and smiling, "This is where we first met."
Shang Shuqing glanced at him with shy cheeks and bright eyes, recalling the past, the first time they met, and the first time she saw him sleeping and turning over lazily under the peach blossom tree. Looking up at the peach blossoms as brilliant as the clouds, I also smiled and murmured, "It's so beautiful!"
Looking at her face, Niu Youdao turned his eyes, looked into the distance, and suddenly said, "I'm leaving, going to the fifth domain. After leaving this world, I may never come back."
Shang Shuqing's heart trembled, and she suddenly turned her head to look at him, with complex panic hidden in her eyes, and she hesitated to speak.
Niu Youdao slowly turned back to look at her, looking at her with a very sincere look, "I asked the princess the question before, but I didn't get an answer. Today I want to ask the princess again, are you willing to entrust me with your life? "
Shang Shuqing thought he wanted to say goodbye to her, but when she heard this again, she felt shy again.
Niu Youdao asked in a different way: "Princess, would you like to come with me?"
Shang Shuqing hummed, "As long as Master Dao doesn't dislike it."
Niu Youdao smiled and said: "If you go away, you may never come back. How can the princess abandon her relatives here?"
Shang Shuqing's eyes were soft and she whispered: "As a merchant's daughter, Qing'er has lived up to her family. My brother is about to rule the world. It doesn't matter whether Qing'er is here or not."
Niu Youdao waved his sleeves, and a bird mount flew into the air and hovered at the bottom of the cliff.
Niu Youdao turned around and stretched out his hand in front of her.
Shang Shuqing glanced at him shyly, then stretched out her hand and gently placed the cattails in his palm, which was quite ritualistic. This release was a real gift of herself.
Holding her hand, Niu Youdao cast a spell, and the two of them flew out of the cliff together, carrying the swaying Luoying, and both landed on the bird mount.
About to leave, Niu Youdao looked back at Shang Qingzong and sighed, "It's time to go."
Shang Shuqing asked: "Just leave like this without saying hello to Yuanfang and the others?"
"Just come here." Niu Youdao waved his sleeves, and the bird mount took the two of them into the sky and flew into the distance.
A large group of crows also rose into the sky and followed.
"Master Dao! Master Dao..." Yuan Fang flew across the mountains and stood on the top of a mountain, shouting. Those who had not returned before turning around.
He scratched his bald head in confusion, Master Tao didn't say hello when he came or went...
In the boundless desert, a group of people are waiting.
The people from Maolu Villa had already arrived, including those under house arrest in Zhong Guzi.
Zhao Xiongge also arrived, bringing people from the Shangqing Sect with him.
Yuan Gang asked them to advance to the fifth domain, but Zhao Xiongge refused, and the people with Shangqing Sect were also waiting here.
There are still a large number of Scorpion Emperors lying on the sand, waiting quietly.
Yuan Gang, carrying the Three Roar Swords and a package, stood on the highest sand dune nearby, looking into the distance.
Guan Fangyi, who was standing by, suddenly pointed with one arm and shouted, "Here we come."
Everyone looked around and saw a dark cloud coming, getting closer and closer, and then descending like a tornado.
Niu Youdao led Shang Shuqing from the bird mount, glanced at everyone, and asked: "Is everyone here?"
Yuan Gang: "Everything is complete."
The Shangqing Sect group looked at Niu Youdao eagerly.
The face of the head Tang Yi has not changed, and the years seem to have left no trace on her face. Her eyes fell on the tightly held hands of Niu Youdao and Shang Shuqing, and then fell on Shang Shuqing's face. .
I heard that the princess was very beautiful after she regained her true appearance. She had seen Shang Shuqing's previous appearance, and she was indeed very beautiful today.
Niu Youdao nodded slightly to Shang Shuqing and let go of her hand.
Shang Shuqing turned around to face the Crow General who was lying on the ground in the darkness, and suddenly said in a loud voice: "The general is here, all officers and men listen to the order, the world is at peace, take off your armor and go back!"
There was a sudden banging sound, and countless crows exploded into smoke, turning into a human form, and the mighty army stood on the rolling sand.
Led by the leader of the crow generals, they all knelt on one knee and faced Shang Shuqing, making a buzzing sound.
Others could not understand what was being said, but Shang Shuqing gradually became moved, tightening her lips and weeping.
Suddenly the leader stood up, and the whole person quickly dissipated like smoke, and finally disappeared without a trace, leaving only the sword and armor falling on the sand dunes.
After that, the mighty army all atomized, ascended into the sky, and gradually disappeared into the darkness, leaving weapons and armor on the ground.
A king's flag with the word "Shang" was blown into the distance by the wind.
This scene was so spectacular and shocking that everyone fell silent, most of them not knowing what was going on.
Niu Youdao took Shang Shuqing's hand again, turned back to Yuan Gang and said, "Let's go."
Yuan Gang turned around and shouted: "Let's go!"
A group of people fell behind a large number of Scorpion Emperors. As Yuan Gang roared, the groups of Scorpion Emperors ran wildly in the desert, and finally plunged into the sand...
When he emerged from the sand, he seemed to be still in the desert, but the sky above proved that he had entered another world.
The first-time visitor looked around.
"Ho..." Amidst Yuan Gang's roar, the group of Scorpion Emperors rushed towards the same direction again.
Speeding all the way, the team arrived at the former location of the pyramid, but there was no longer a pyramid here.
Yuan Gang determined the location based on the oasis in the distance. He shouted and made all the Scorpion Emperors stop. Most of the Scorpion Emperors escaped underground, causing everyone to fall to the ground.
Only the one under Yuan Gang's feet, which was also the one Niu Youdao and others were riding, stayed in place.
Everyone looked around, and most of them didn't know what they meant by stopping here. However, Yuan Gang turned to look at Niu Youdao, silently untied the package on his body, and handed it to Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao took the package in his hand and asked, "You and I have been brothers for so many years. Do you really want to stop thinking about it? It's still too late to regret it now!"
Yuan Gang silently tied the sword pulled out of the package around his waist, the Sky-Breaking Sword among the eight artifacts of the country!
Seeing his attitude, Niu Youdao didn't say anything more, took Shang Shuqing and flew away from the Scorpion Emperor, landing on the sand.
"Tao Master, take care. Let's go!" Yuan Gang shouted, and the Scorpion Emperor at his feet turned around and ran away again.
Niu Youdao watched him off, but Yuan Gang didn't look back.
Zhao Xiongge came over and asked, "Where is he going?"
Niu Youdao: "Go back to the human world and cut off the passage!"
Zhao Xiongge was slightly surprised, "Then he won't be able to come back?"
Niu Youdao looked indifferent, "How many years have it been... let him go."
Everyone looked at each other.
…
The Scorpion King ran wildly in the desert, and the towering pyramid in front gradually appeared in sight.
Rushing to the Scorpion Emperor who stopped at the foot of the pyramid, Yuan Gang used his inertia to jump up and landed halfway up the pyramid. He climbed up crazily like he was desperate, rushed to the top, and hurriedly cleared the stone platform. people jumped on the sand.
Uh-huh! The Skybreaking Sword was unsheathed, holding the sword with both hands, the blade hanging upside down, and when he was about to penetrate the groove with all his strength, Yuan Gang froze, unable to start, and was panting.
Climbing those steps seemed to take all his strength.
"Ah..." With a final long roar, he knelt down on one knee and the sword sank into the groove of the stone platform.
There was a buzzing and rumbling, and there was a faint sound of thunder in the sky. Soon, rain clouds surged out of the darkness.
Lightning and thunder started, and Yuan Gang turned around and jumped down from the highest point, landing on the third step at the top.
The wind was surging between the sky and the earth, blowing his clothes. He stared at the direction where the Scorpion Emperor came from before.
The scorpion king at the foot of the pyramid was so frightened that he ran away.
Boom! A bolt of thunder crossed the sky and hit the hilt of the Sky-Breaking Sword.
The thunderbolts hit one after another.
Continuous thunder exploded behind Yuan Gang, and the rays of light illuminated his figure extremely clearly, as if a god had come to the world, and as if he was numb, standing indifferently beside the thunder.
The earth trembled, the pyramid sank, and the figure above seemed to be driving an ancient monster sinking to the earth...
Somewhere in the desert of the fifth domain, the wind and clouds were also surging, and large dark clouds surged out of the darkness and gathered together.
In the sky with lightning and thunder, dark clouds seemed to be forming a whirlpool.
Everyone was surprised, and most of them didn't know what was going on.
Niu Youdao looked up and muttered to himself, "It's begun."
When he looked back at Shang Shuqing to see if she was scared, he caught a glimpse of Tang Yi who was looking at him not far away. Seeing Niu Youdao looking at him, Tang Yi immediately turned around.
Niu Youdao let go of Shang Shuqing's hand and walked slowly to Tang Yi.
Everyone followed, Shang Shuqing also looked at the person in front of him, and the Shangqing Sect group also watched eagerly.
In this situation, being stared at by so many people, Tang Yi felt a little embarrassed and asked, "Is something wrong?"
Niu Youdao looked extremely emotional and suddenly smiled, "I don't know if you will hate me. I don't want to betray others, but I still betray some people after all. Tang Yi, I'm sorry!"
When he said this at this time, Tang Yi stared at him.
Niu Youdao had already turned around and walked back to Shang Shuqing. He looked up at the sky and the rotating dark clouds.
Yun Ji asked, "What's going on? What are you waiting for?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black hole formed in the center of the rotating dark clouds. Light gradually shone in the black hole, giving people a strange and bizarre feeling.
Niu Youdao frowned, waited for a while, and found that the vision in the sky was fixed, and it seemed that there would be no more changes.
In other words, the bizarre black hole is the passage.
Niu Youdao suddenly put his arm around Shang Shuqing's waist in full view of everyone, which made Shang Shuqing feel strangely embarrassed, but she did not resist.
"Matchmaker, send us in." Niu Youdao turned around and said hello. Seeing that Guan Fangyi was still stunned, he shouted, "Hurry! Time is running out."
Because I couldn't determine whether it was a passage just now, I wasted a lot of time.
Guan Fangyi immediately stopped hesitating, grabbed his arm, took the two of them into the air, flew straight into the sky, and rushed directly to the center of the whirlpool.
A group of people below looked up in shock, wondering what was going on.
Before rushing into the whirlpool, Niu Youdao turned back and said, "Matchmaker, go back, give me a slap and give me a ride."
Guan Fangyi didn't doubt anything. She was used to following orders. She pushed her arm according to the trend and gave the maximum push. The two parties separated instantly.
Niu Youdao used his strength to cast a spell and fly, with his clothes fluttering, like a roc carrying Shang Shuqing, he accelerated into the sky and disappeared into the strange lights.
Guan Fangyi landed lightly.
Yun Ji approached and asked suspiciously, "What is he doing?"
When the strange black hole in the sky suddenly disappeared, there were no signs of lightning and thunder, the rolling dark clouds also quickly dissipated, and no one could be seen in the sky.
At this time, most people's faces changed and they realized something.
Nan Tian Wufang in the crowd slowly turned around and stared coldly at Wen Hua...
In the Xindu Imperial Palace, the enthronement ceremony was vigorous and spectacular.
On the tower, there is a wheelchair, Meng Shanming is exhausted.
Without the war, his spirit relaxed, his body and mind were instantly worse than before, and his energy was not enough to support him through the complicated etiquette.
In order to avoid losing etiquette, Meng Shanming refused to participate and only watched the ceremony on the tower.
But he fell asleep as soon as he looked at it. His thin body was leaning on the backrest, and someone carefully covered him with a blanket.
His beard turned white in the wind, and he seemed to be murmuring names one after another in his sleep, with tears in the corners of his eyes, "Big Tou, Long Bao..."
The coronation ceremony seems to have gradually fallen into embarrassment.
In the main hall of the palace, Shang Chaozong was wearing a gong robe and Feng Ruonan was wearing a phoenix robe. The couple sat upright and accepted the worship of hundreds of officials.
But at this time, the palace was completely quiet. The couple sat quietly above, while hundreds of officials stood quietly below.
Outside the palace, eunuchs quietly ran in and out from time to time, looking outside as if they were waiting for someone.
Everyone in the palace knew that they were waiting for Niu Youdao. The auspicious time to ascend the throne had already informed Niu Youdao, and Niu Youdao also replied that he knew.
Anyone who knows something about Niu Youdao knows it. If someone says you know it, you know it. Don’t ask too much. People have always behaved in such a way that people can’t understand the depth of things.
To put it bluntly, they were all waiting for Niu Youdao to come and rectify the name of the Shang Dynasty Sect.
Now that Niu Youdao has neither appeared nor said anything, I don't know what to do and whether I should wait any longer.
If you don't wait, I'm afraid that once Niu Youdao comes, I won't care about the end, and I'm afraid it won't be appropriate.
If Niu Youdao didn't show up to rectify the name of the Shang Dynasty Sect, he would be afraid that some people would think wrongly.
There were eunuchs whispering to each other outside the hall, and then a eunuch hurried in, climbed onto the throne from one side, and whispered to Shang Chaozong: "Your Majesty, Master Yuan has sent a message, saying that he has gone to the fifth domain and will not return. came back."
Already gone to the fifth domain? Feng Ruonan turned around in shock when he heard this.
Won't come back again? In the Shang Dynasty, Zong was slightly silent.
Looking up, he saw all the officials looking at him eagerly. After waving his hand to ask the eunuchs to retreat, he stood up and suddenly loudly declared with great enthusiasm: "I have a national scholar who is unparalleled in the world!"
All the officials bowed with their hands raised...
After going through the complicated etiquette, Feng Ruonan, who had finished his own scene, rushed to the harem to meet Baiguan's wife and do his part.
Suddenly, a eunuch hurried over and blocked the road to report: "Your Majesty, the Taoist Master has sent someone a gift."
Feng Ruonan was surprised, "Where is the ceremony?"
The eunuch said: "It has been sent to the empress' palace."
Feng Ruonan hurried over immediately, not caring about Baiguan's family for the time being.
Returning to the main palace, I saw a box in the main hall.
Feng Ruonan waved his hand, "Open it!"
The two palace maids opened the box and immediately saw a box of golden coins. Feng Ruonan was surprised. She didn't expect Niu Youdao to give such a vulgar gift.
When I saw a letter on the gold coin, I immediately asked someone to deliver it to me.
When I got the letter and looked at it, I saw it said: I took Qing'er away, the world is given to the prince, and I owe him nothing. The 10,000 gold coins I borrowed from the princess were now returned in full. The princess looked at them.
With such a few words, the stunned Feng Ruonan gradually remembered when Niu Youdao owed her 10,000 gold coins.
The past events are vivid in my mind at the moment, including bamboo rafts on the river, being tricked into marrying someone, swords flashing, husband and wife turning against each other, and surviving with help.
There were so many storms in the past, but looking at today's phoenix robe, the man returned her money and left.
Feng Ruonan, wearing a jingle ring, smiled, shook his head with a smile, covered his mouth with a smile, and cried, unable to help himself, tears streaming down his face... (End of the book)
