Chapter 75 Sleepless (please subscribe)
"it's dark."
"There should be a lot of mosquitoes by the lake. I wonder if Jinli is still waiting for me."
"Damn it, where is the exact location of July Lake!"
Although the map is fully marked, it is actually not detailed. It cannot be as accurate as Blue Star to identify which buildings, or even some hills.
Qi Yuan has now arrived nearby, but the specific location of July Lake is still unknown.
At this time, several voices came.
Qi Yuan's eyes lit up: "Someone, can I ask?"
At this time, the moonlight was falling around the lakeside.
The smell of blood is in the air.
The strong men on both sides were holding weapons and were at war with each other.
“Is this the way your Moon Emperor clan treats guests?
We have come all the way from Black Cloud City, and we want to see your sacrifices, but can’t we? "The one who spoke was a one-eyed man, wearing an eyepatch and looking particularly fierce.
"We have a reason why we should not see the evil guests!" On the other side, a man with pure green hair said.
"It seems that you Moon Emperor clan haven't realized what the price of offending us will be!" The one-eyed man held a big sword with a fierce look.
"The Moon Royal Family is not afraid of any threats." The green-haired man said.
The two sides were at war with each other, arguing and arguing, and seemed to be about to start a fight at any time.
At this moment, a voice came: "Everyone, please stop for a moment. Do you know where Qiyue Lake or Qiyue Town is?"
Qi Yuan appeared beside these people, wearing a mask and speaking sincerely.
After he finished speaking, both parties present who were still scolding looked at him with strange expressions.
"Where we are now is by the July Lake." The one-eyed man spoke with a thick voice.
Qi Yuan was stunned when he heard this: "Is this July Lake?"
Behind the two groups of people is a "lake" the size of a pond.
Isn't the lake very big?
Is this too small?
Where is Jinli?
He glanced over and didn't see where Jin Li was?
Did he come by mistake?
"Thank you for informing me." Qi Yuan was a little disappointed and expressed his gratitude to the one-eyed man.
Where is Jinli?
Where is July Town?
He was about to leave and circle Fuki Tsubaki.
But at this time, the one-eyed man stopped him.
"Little brother, don't leave yet. Come and judge for us, who is right and who is wrong!" A ferocious smile appeared in the eyes of the one-eyed man.
He suddenly wanted to have some fun.
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry. I have to go to July Town to meet an old friend." Qi Yuan was in a low mood.
"I know where July Town is. As long as you judge who of us is right and who is wrong, I will tell you." The one-eyed man said.
"You are right!" Qi Yuan did not hesitate.
The one-eyed man heard this and shook his head: "This is meaningless."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan had no choice but to force himself to calm down and wait here to be a qualified judge.
When the green-haired man saw this, he said to Qi Yuan: "You'd better leave quickly. People from the Hundred Cities Alliance are hunting down some casual warriors. You will be implicated if you are here."
The one-eyed man showed a joking smile: "Why do you people from the Moon Emperor clan like to taint people's innocence so much? Do you have any evidence that I hunted this friend?"
"Do I need to mention the bad reputation of your Hundred Cities Alliance?"
"In our Hundred Cities Alliance, we have a loving father and a filial son, and we have someone to rely on when we are old. How can we have a bad reputation?
But you, the Moon Emperor clan, don’t even have basic manners.
We ask to see you to offer sacrifices, but you turn away the guests?
Do you want to imitate the Great Luo Kingdom? "
Qi Yuan stood aside, confused.
He has no idea who is right and who is wrong.
Everyone seems to be right.
"Hmph, we, the Moon Emperor clan, will never give in. If you, the Alliance of Hundred Cities, dare to come, I will kill one for each person who comes, and I will kill a hundred for hundreds of people!" the green-haired man said angrily.
Oh haha!
Kill hundreds of people?
Qi Yuan knew who was right and who was wrong.
At this time, the one-eyed man smiled sternly: "Three thousand members of the royal family of the Great Luo Kingdom were all slaughtered by my hands!"
When Qi Yuan heard this, he was completely shocked. There was another one here who was even more fierce.
He was very anxious, fearing that something might happen again: "I know, they are right, you are wrong!"
He pointed at the people from the Hundred Cities Alliance and said they were wrong.
After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he added: "Now can you tell me where July Town is?"
When the one-eyed man heard this, he looked stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Are you saying we were wrong again?"
The seven warriors behind him also looked at Qi Yuan with expressions of joking and murderous intent.
Qi Yuan asked: "Where is July Town?"
The one-eyed man laughed: "I have never heard of July Town!
There is no July town here at all! "
Everyone behind him was laughing.
Seeing this, the green-haired man reminded again: "Your Excellency, leave quickly, the Hundred Cities Alliance is not a good person."
Qi Yuan turned a deaf ear and stood quietly, his eyes fixed on the one-eyed man: "Are you sure you lied to me?"
"No need to confirm, just, so what?
Don't know what to look up to.
A casual cultivator who dares to show his face is seeking death. "The one-eyed man said contemptuously.
Qi Yuan took out his sword and his expression became extremely gloomy for the first time: "I hate it when people lie to me, especially about such an important matter!"
If he told Qi Yuan a wrong address, Qi Yuan might see Jin Li even later.
He doesn't have much time to begin with.
How could he not be angry!
He held a sword in his hand and struck with thunderous force under the astonished eyes of everyone.
"You should be killed for lying to me!"
His speed was so fast that no one present reacted at all, and they didn't even see the afterimage. A neat cut appeared on their necks.
When Qi Yuan's sword tip touched the one-eyed man's neck, the blood on the necks of the eight people behind him spurted out at the same time, which was particularly spectacular, and then he heard the thud of his body falling to the ground.
"You really don't know July Town?" Qi Yuan's sword tip moved forward, pressing the one-eyed man's Adam's apple inward, causing blood to flow.
The one-eyed man didn't dare to speak at all.
"die!"
A sword pierced through the Adam's apple, filling his whole body with evil aura.
The clothes on his body slowly changed color at this moment for some reason, as if they were dyed red by blood.
Killing eight people with one sword, Qi Yuan was like killing insects.
When the green-haired man saw this, a look of shock and deep vigilance flashed in his eyes.
"Are you looking for someone?" he asked tentatively.
"Well, I want to go to Yuehuang Kingdom and July Town. A friend of mine said she would wait for me there." Qi Yuan's tone was a little lost and depressed.
This was in sharp contrast to the quick killing of eight people just now.
"But I can't find the Moon Emperor Kingdom, nor can I find the July Town. It's obviously... right next to the ancient Qichun tree, and right under the ancient Qichun tree."
Qi Yuan was holding the sword, his eyes were stern, he wished he could split the ancient Qichun tree with his sword.
The green-haired man looked thoughtful when he heard this.
"Among all the countries and cities around Guqi Chunmu, it seems that only our Moon Emperor clan is consistent with what you said.
I don’t know if your friend made a mistake or there was some other misunderstanding.
Or maybe, it is actually July Lake. Next to July Lake, there is also a branch of our Moon Emperor clan, which is similar to a small town.
Why don't you just stay with us, the Moon Emperor Clan, and tell us the information about the person you're looking for, and we'll help you find him. "
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan glanced at these people coldly: "You won't lie to me, will you?"
He raised his hand and wiped his fingers on the blade of the sword, wiping away the blood.
The blood from the one-eyed man's neck was still stained on the sword.
The green-haired man shuddered inexplicably when he heard this.
"Of course I won't deceive you. Of course, our Moon Emperor clan cannot guarantee that we will help you find your old friend!" said the green-haired man.
The reason why he did this was because he took a fancy to Qi Yuan's strength.
Nowadays, the Hundred Cities Alliance is under siege, and the Moon Emperor clan is struggling to support them. If they can have one more ally, they will have one more ally.
"Okay." Qi Yuan heard this and had no better idea in mind.
He might be able to get more useful information from the Moon Emperor clan.
At this time, the green-haired man said: "Now that our Moon Emperor clan is under siege by the Hundred Cities Alliance, you may be implicated here."
"Nothing." Qi Yuan said.
He didn't care about any of this, as long as he could see Jin Li.
"I dare you to tell us the information about the person you are looking for, as well as his appearance." The green-haired man's attitude was extremely low.
"Her name is Jinli, and she is the Queen of Nanqian. Her appearance... I don't know, but she must be very beautiful. She is not very old. She was probably in her 29th year when the heavy snow fell on the ancient Qichun trees. time."
Note: In Wangyue Continent, a girl aged 18 is considered an adult.
The green-haired man silently wrote down this information.
He said: "Is that woman waiting for you in July Town?"
"Yes." Qi Yuan said.
"Can you tell me your name?" The green-haired man looked at Qi Yuan, "We can spread this matter. If she knows that you are looking for her, she might also come here."
"Qi Yuan." Qi Yuan said.
"Okay!" The green-haired man remembered this information, "Why don't you follow us back to the Moon Emperor clan?"
Qi Yuan glanced at Qiyue Lake and then at Guqi Chunmu: "No, I will wait here. If there is no news after half a month, I will leave."
After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he slowly walked towards the lake.
He found a piece of bluestone and sat there. He looked at the green lake and was lost in thought.
The green-haired man looked at each other and the members of the Moon Emperor clan, and silently disposed of the bodies of the warriors from the Hundred Cities Alliance on the ground.
They retreated silently.
Qi Yuan was sitting by the lake alone, holding a sword in his arms. The moonlight fell on his shoulders. He looked at the lake and didn't know what he was thinking about.
…
"Killing nine warriors with one sword, including an emperor-level warrior and eight king-level warriors, he should be a supreme emperor."
The girl is dressed in green. She is Leng Yue, the disciple of the Moon Emperor clan, the July branch, and the priest.
The priest left to meet an old friend, and Leng Yue presided over the important events here.
She stood on the balcony, looked towards July Lake, and saw the man sitting quietly by the lake.
“The people below him were asked to find the person he was looking for.
A supreme emperor is worthy of our wooing. "Leng Yue ordered.
"As you command." The green-haired man agreed, then retreated.
Leng Yue stood alone on the Yanyu Tower. She glanced at the man's back and couldn't help but sigh.
"If I remember correctly, the princess who was married back then was also waiting for the gods here, right?"
"What a pity."
"The princess in wedding clothes did not wait for the gods and rested here. Only a new princess in wedding clothes was left behind, but the darkest moment came to the world!
The Alliance of Hundred Cities, the demon's lackeys, must be punished! "Leng Yue's little face showed a hint of murderous intent.
When the early morning sunshine fell on the July Lake, the resting bird suddenly flew away from Qi Yuan's shoulder.
The green-haired man hurried over.
"Is there any news?" Qi Yuan's voice was a little urgent.
"No." The green-haired man said, "We have notified other branches of the Moon Emperor Clan about the person you are looking for. If there is any news, we will notify you as soon as possible!"
"Thank you." Qi Yuan was a little disappointed.
He was a little dissatisfied.
Why did his game interface disappear after leaving Tian Jue?
He also couldn't contact Jinli.
Now, Jin Li can't contact him or see him, so she wonders if she's worried.
Or do you think he missed the date?
Qi Yuan hates being late.
Unless there are special circumstances.
He sat by the lake. The green-haired man stood for a while and then left.
As the sun slowly rises, the lakeside becomes lively.
Several girls came to the lake to wash their clothes with bamboo baskets.
When they saw Qi Yuan, they all glanced secretly, a little shy and a little afraid.
In the open space by the lake, there were some children playing there, which was very lively.
Qi Yuan has been sitting there, motionless like a wooden stake.
Not far away, a little boy kept secretly looking at Qi Yuan, with a hesitant look on his face.
Finally, he stepped forward and said boldly: "Faceless man, can I call you this?"
"Yes." Qi Yuan hugged the sword without looking back.
The little boy patted his chest, as if to relieve his nervousness: "You didn't move, I thought you died here."
Qi Yuan was speechless.
The little boy continued: "What are you doing here?"
That little boy seemed curious about everything.
He is also very courageous.
"I'm waiting for someone." Qi Yuan said.
The little boy was a little sad when he heard this: "When I was a child, I would wait here every day for my father to come home. Sometimes I would take a wooden stick to write and draw on the ground. Sometimes, when it was getting late, I would draw To some fireflies…”
"When you were a child?" Qi Yuan's attention was very strange.
"I'm eight years old now."
"You still remember such a small memory."
"It's only been two or three years, and I still remember my father's appearance.
I also specially carved my dad’s face so that I will remember his face for the rest of my life. The little boy happily took out a wooden carving with a man carved inside, "My father is a carver, and I will definitely become a great carver!" "
The little boy's eyes were filled with hope.
At this time, a dirty child ran over and said, "Ah Qiao, do you want to eat the candied haws on a stick?"
The child opened his dirty hands, and there were three gray candied haws inside.
"Xiao Ping, where did you get it?" A Qiao took a candied haws.
"I picked it up." The dirty child noticed Qi Yuan, "Uncle, you want to eat it or not."
He stretched out his hand and looked at Qi Yuan strangely.
When Ah Qiao saw this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "He is an adult. He won't eat your sugar-coated haws, but he is still so dirty!"
At this time, a shout came: "Qiao, Xiaoping, come back quickly, it's time to eat!"
"Uncle Wei, let's go!"
The two little boys saw this and ran away quickly.
Silence returned to the lakeside, with only Qi Yuan sitting there blankly.
The next day, the little boy named A Qiao came over again, chatted with Qi Yuan for a while, and then ran away.
That Aqiao said that he would carve a sculpture for Qi Yuan later and use the best materials.
Because Qi Yuan taught him some carving techniques.
On the third day, Qi Yuan clearly felt that the July Lake was much deserted. No women from the Yue Emperor clan came to the lake to wash their clothes, and the children did not come here to play.
The green-haired man came to see Qi Yuan and said that the Hundred Cities Alliance might attack soon.
They are still looking for Jinli.
At night, Qi Yuan sat alone by the lake.
Suddenly, he stood up: "I can't wait like this any longer."
He decided to circle around Guqi Chunmu.
What if you encounter it?
Unfortunately, he also understood that the probability was very low.
Because this requires the unity of time, space and people.
If one is missing, it may not be seen.
He got up and flew towards Guqi Chunmu.
The thick trunk is like a mountain peak.
When he flew two-thirds of the way, Qi Yuan stopped.
He saw a horrifying scene.
In front, there is a huge ancient Qi Chun tree with a towering trunk and hanging branches, like fishing lines falling from the sky.
However...the branches were densely covered with human corpses.
One hundred tools? A thousand pieces? Ten thousand tools?
One hundred thousand tools? Hundreds of thousands?
They are so densely packed that if you look around, you can’t even count them.
There were countless corpses hanging under the green branches of the ancient Qichun tree.
The white bones were covered by shabby cloth; the dried corpse exuded the stench of dead snakes; the fresh corpse still had a peaceful smile in its eyes...
Qi Yuan was silent.
This was the first time in his life that he saw so many corpses.
He flew forward for an unknown amount of time.
When he looked up, he could see the densely packed feet and countless bones.
How many people are this?
What did these people do wrong?
is hung here.
Qi Yuan remained silent as he flew around the main trunk of the ancient Qichun tree, looking for powerful martial arts spirit.
It's a pity that he didn't sense the woman like Jinli at all.
What he saw were corpses hanging under the ancient Qichun tree!
This is purgatory on earth!
The world is not as beautiful as Jinli described!
"Why can't I find it?"
Qi Yuan was distraught.
He had almost flown around the main trunk of the ancient Qichun tree, but he couldn't find it at all.
He was very scared, afraid that he really wouldn't be able to see Jin Li.
Suddenly, Qi Yuan stopped again.
His pupils shrank, and he saw two familiar bones.
One is the woman holding a baby outside Kunwu City.
She was hung under the ancient Qichun tree, with the same indifferent expression as when Qi Yuan first saw her.
The other body was the child that the woman once held tightly in her arms.
A person whom I had just met a short time ago was hanging under the dense ancient Qichun trees.
For some reason, Qi Yuan felt angry in his heart.
He pulled out his sword, and it looked like he cut off the ancient Qichun wood with one sword.
At this moment, a pleasant female voice came: "Qi Yuan..."
Qi Yuan turned around suddenly, and under the moonlight, there was a girl in a long flowing skirt standing.
A look of disappointment flashed in Qi Yuan's eyes: "Who are you?"
He had never met Jinli, but he knew at a glance that he was not Jinli.
"The Moon Royal Family, one of the twelve sacrifices, July."
