Chapter 74: Sleepless Hugging Shadow (Subscription Request)

"It's getting 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 not detailed. It cannot be as accurate as Blue Star to which building, and even some small hills cannot be accurate.

Qi Yuan has now arrived nearby, but the exact location of July Lake is still unknown.

At this time, several voices came.

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up: "Is there anyone who can go and ask?"

At this time, the moonlight fell around the lake.

The air was full of blood.

The two strong men held weapons and were on the verge of a fight.

"Is this the way you, the Moon Emperor family, treat guests?

We have come all the way from Black Cloud City to here. Can't we see your sacrifice?" The speaker was a one-eyed man wearing an eye patch, looking particularly fierce.

"When an evil guest comes, we naturally have a reason not to see him!" said a man with pure green hair on the other side.

"It seems that you, the Yuehuang clan, have not yet realized what the price of offending us will be!" The one-eyed man held a big knife, looking ferocious.

"The Yuehuang clan is not afraid of any threats." The green-haired man said.

The two sides were on the verge of a fight, arguing and arguing, and it seemed that they would fight at any time.

At this moment, a voice came: "Everyone, stop for a moment. Excuse me, do you know where July Lake, or July Town, is?"

Qi Yuan appeared beside these people. He was wearing a mask and his voice was sincere.

After he finished speaking, the two parties who were still quarreling looked at him strangely.

"Where we are now is the July Lake." The one-eyed man spoke in a rough voice.

Qi Yuan was stunned when he heard this: "Is this July Lake?"

Behind the two groups of people was a "lake" the size of a pond.

Isn't the lake very big?

This is too small, right?

Where is Jinli?

He glanced over and didn't see where Jinli was?

Did he come to the wrong place?

"Thank you for telling me." Qi Yuan was a little disappointed and thanked the one-eyed man.

Where is Jinli?

Where is July Town?

He was about to leave and circled the ancient Qi Chun wood.

At this time, the one-eyed man called him.

"Little brother, don't leave yet, come and judge for us who is right and who is wrong!" The one-eyed man showed a ferocious smile in his eyes.

He suddenly wanted to find some fun.

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry. I still have to go to July Town to see an old friend." Qi Yuan was in a low mood.

"I know where July Town is. As long as you judge who is right and who is wrong, I will tell you." The one-eyed man said.

"You are right!" Qi Yuan did not hesitate at all.

Hearing this, the one-eyed man shook his head: "This is meaningless."

Hearing this, Qi Yuan had to force himself to calm down and wait here to be a qualified judge.

Seeing this, the green-haired man said to Qi Yuan: "You'd better leave quickly. The people of the Hundred Cities Alliance are hunting down some independent martial artists. If you stay here, you will be implicated."

The one-eyed man showed a playful smile: "Why do you people of the Moon Emperor clan like to slander others' innocence? You said I hunted down this friend, do you have any evidence?"

"Do you need to talk about the bad reputation of your Hundred Cities Alliance?"

"In our Hundred Cities Alliance, fathers are kind and sons are filial, and the elderly have someone to rely on. How can there be a bad reputation?

It's your Moon Emperor clan that doesn't even have basic courtesy.

We asked to see you for sacrifice, but you turned away the guests?

Do you want to emulate the Daluo Kingdom?"

Qi Yuan stood aside and listened with a confused look on his face.

He didn't know who was right or wrong.

It seemed that everyone had a point.

"Humph, our Moon Emperor clan will never surrender. If you dare to come from the Hundred Cities Alliance, I will kill one person. If you come with a hundred people, I will kill a hundred people!" The green-haired man said angrily.

Oh!

Kill a hundred people?

Qi Yuan knew who was right and who was wrong.

At this time, the one-eyed man smiled sternly: "Three thousand people from the royal family of Daluo were all slaughtered by our generation!"

Qi Yuan was completely shocked when he heard this. There was another one who was even more powerful.

He was very anxious, afraid that something unexpected would happen again: "I know, they are right, you are wrong!"

He pointed at the people of the Hundred Cities Alliance and said they were wrong.

After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he added: "Can you tell me where July Town is now?"

The one-eyed man was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed: "Say it again that we are wrong?"

The seven warriors behind him also looked at Qi Yuan, with a playful look on their faces, and murderous intent.

Qi Yuan asked: "Where is July Town?"

The one-eyed man laughed: "I have never heard of any July Town!

There is no July Town here at all!"

The people behind him were all 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 to him. He stood quietly in place, his eyes fixed on the one-eyed man: "Are you sure you are lying to me?"

"No need to be sure, it is, so what?

You are an ungrateful person.

A casual cultivator dares to show up in public. This is courting death." The one-eyed man said contemptuously.

Qi Yuan took out his sword, and his face became extremely gloomy for the first time: "I hate people lying to me, especially on such an important matter!"

If Qi Yuan was told a wrong address, Qi Yuan might meet Jin Li later.

He didn'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 the 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. "

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 one 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 person he is looking for, he tells the people below to find him.

A supreme emperor is worthy of our wooing. "Leng Yue ordered.

"As you command." The green-haired man agreed, and 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 married princess 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!

Hundred Cities Alliance, the evil lackeys, shall be killed!" Leng Yue's little face showed a trace of murderous intent.

When the early morning sun fell on the July Lake, the resting bird suddenly flew away from Qi Yuan's shoulder in fright.

The green-haired man hurried over.

"Any news?" Qi Yuan's voice was a little hurried.

"No." The green-haired man said, "Regarding the person you are looking for, we have notified other branches of the Moon Emperor Clan. If there is any news, we will inform 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 couldn't contact Jin Li.

Now, Jin Li couldn't contact him, and couldn't see him. I wonder if she would be worried.

Or did she think that he had broken his promise?

Qi Yuan hated being late.

Unless there were special circumstances.

He sat by the lake, and the green-haired man stood for a while and left.

As the sun slowly rose, the lakeside became lively.

Several girls came to the lake with bamboo baskets to wash clothes.

When they saw Qi Yuan, they all glanced at him secretly, a little shy, a little afraid.

And on the open space by the lake, some children were playing there, it was so lively.

Qi Yuan had been sitting there, like a wooden stake, motionless.

Not far away, a little boy had been 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 that?"

"Yes. "Qi Yuan held the sword without turning his head.

The little boy patted his chest, as if to relieve his tension: "You didn't move, I thought you died here."

Qi Yuan didn't say anything.

The little boy continued: "What are you doing here?"

The little boy seemed to be curious about everything.

He was also very brave.

"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 also waited for my father to come home here every day. Sometimes, I would take a wooden stick to write and draw on the ground. Sometimes, it was late, I would catch some fireflies..."

"When you were a child?" Qi Yuan's attention point was very strange.

"I'm eight years old now."

"Such a small memory, you still remember it."

"Only two or three years, I still remember what my father looks like.

I also specially carved my father's appearance, so that I will remember his appearance all my life." The little boy happily took out a wood carving with a man carved in it, "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: "Aqiao, do you want to eat the candied haws?"

The child opened his dirty hands, and there were three gray candied haws in them.

"Xiaoping, where did you get it?" Aqiao took a candied haws.

"I picked it up." The dirty child noticed Qi Yuan, "Uncle Weird, do you want to eat it?"

He stretched out his hand and looked at Qi Yuan strangely.

Aqiao saw this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "He is an adult, he doesn't want to eat your candied haws, and he is still so dirty!"

At this time, a shout came: "Aqiao, Xiaoping, come back quickly, it's time to eat!"

"Uncle Weird, we are leaving! "

The two little boys saw this and ran away quickly.

The lakeside returned to silence, with only Qi Yuan sitting there blankly.

The next day, the little boy named Aqiao came over again, chatted with Qi Yuan for a while, and then ran away.

Aqiao said that he would carve a sculpture for Qi Yuan in the future, using the best materials.

Because Qi Yuan taught him some tricks of carving.

On the third day, Qi Yuan clearly felt that the lakeside in July was much quieter. The women of the Yuehuang clan did not come to the lakeside to wash 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 were still looking for Jinli.

At night, Qi Yuan sat alone by the lake.

Suddenly, he stood up: "We can't wait like this any longer. "

He decided to circle around the ancient Qi Chun tree.

What if, by chance, he encountered it?

Unfortunately, he also understood that the probability was very low.

Because it requires the unity of time, space and people.

If one of them is missing, it may not be seen.

He stood up and flew towards the ancient Qi Chun tree.

The thick trunk was like a mountain.

When he flew two-thirds of the way, Qi Yuan stopped.

He saw a horrifying scene.

In front of him, there was a huge ancient Qi Chun tree, with a towering trunk and drooping branches, like a fishing line falling from the sky.

However... the branches were densely packed with human corpses.

One hundred ? One thousand? Ten thousand?

One hundred thousand? Hundreds of thousands?

So densely packed that you can't even count them.

Under the green branches of the ancient Chinese toon tree, there are countless bodies hanging.

The white bones are covered by tattered cloth; the dry corpses exude the stench of dead snakes; the newly alive corpses still have a peaceful smile in their eyes...

Qi Yuan was silent.

This was the first time in his life that he saw so many corpses.

He flew forward, not knowing how long he had been flying.

As soon as he looked up, he could see the densely packed feet and the countless bones.

How many people are there?

What did these people do wrong?

Being hung here.

Qi Yuan was silent. He flew around the trunk of the ancient Qi Chun tree, and his powerful martial arts spirit also searched outside.

Unfortunately, he did not sense the woman who looked like Jinli at all.

What he saw was corpses hanging under the ancient Qi Chun tree!

This is hell on earth!

The world is not as beautiful as Jinli described!

"Why can't I find it!"

Qi Yuan was upset.

He had almost flown around the trunk of the ancient Qi Chun tree, but he didn't find it at all.

He was very scared, afraid that he really couldn't see Jinli.

Suddenly, Qi Yuan stopped again.

His pupils shrank slightly, and he saw two familiar corpses.

One was the woman holding the baby outside Kunwu City.

She was hung under the ancient Qi Chun tree, and her expression was as numb as when Qi Yuan saw it.

The other was the child that the woman had once held tightly in her arms.

A person who had just met for a short time was hanging under this dense ancient Qi Chun tree.

For some reason, Qi Yuan felt inexplicably angry.

He drew his sword and wanted to cut the ancient Qi Chun tree with one sword.

At this moment, a pleasant female voice came: "Qi Yuan..."

Qi Yuan turned around suddenly, and under the bright moonlight, there stood a girl in a long flowing dress.

Qi Yuan's eyes flashed with disappointment: "Who are you?"

He had never seen Jin Li, but he knew at a glance that he was not Jin Li.

"The Moon Royal Family, one of the twelve priests, July."
