Chapter 27 Bright Mirror
The white shadow is so fast that it is invisible that it only reveals traces when it encounters obstacles, like an illusion flashing by.
The line extends straight and goes straight, pointing to Shanyin Fort, which is more than ten miles away from Nushi, happens to be located at the end of the diagonal line of the town.
Many rivers originate from snow-capped mountains in the northwest. When they flow to the south, they carry a lot of mud and sand, causing the riverbed to accumulate and rise. The people on both sides had to build embankments to block floods, and eventually they often create towering rivers on the ground.
The lost place is not far from the source, and the river flows in low-lying places. It is very wide but not deep. People can walk through it in the dry season, and it is only a few meters deep at the turn of spring and summer.
Shanyin Fort is located on a high ground opposite the river from the town. Today, a three-foot-high wooden platform is built in front of the fort.
On the stage, an old man wrapped in a green scarf was tied up tightly, with his feet in shackles and a towel in his mouth. He was standing hostage by two burly men.
In the audience, twenty or thirty strongly equipped warriors inserted their ghost-headed swords into a circle, with their faces facing outwards. An executioner had finished grinding the knife and was spraying water on the blade, raising the light to the point where he looked at the blade.
Deputy Envoy of Light Song Changjing, who suppressed the bandits, did not return overnight. Last night, the prisoners of the Scientific Party rioted again, and nine out of ten died. If even the last old man was finished, the execution meeting would not be held and would become a laughing stock.
The light made Wu Taiyi worry about the long night and the dreams, and on the other hand, he was anxious to go to Taodu, so he simply advanced the execution time.
On the river beach in front of the wooden platform, there were black people standing in ragged clothes, pale and thin. Inside, there were old women and children, babies lying in cradles.
Because the execution was temporarily reissued, not many people came to watch in the ten miles and eighteen villages. The civilians in the town basically stood opposite the river, and the wooden terrace was surrounded by Shanyin Fort slaves who were driven from the mountain.
So many people were crowded on the beach, but they didn't make a sound, and they were as silent as a pool of stagnant water.
If the baby cries, the mother will try her best to cover his mouth. Even if his face is blue and purple, he will only relax a little and dare not let go.
After the holy war seventeen years ago, the scientific dog disappeared and only began to emerge last year. The other murdered people were not aware of, but the slaves only recognized Lao Cangtou who was about to be executed.
He is a wandering doctor with magical medical skills and saved countless people. If he has money, he can give him more medical expenses, and if he doesn't have money, he can't give him any money. Everything about the slave belongs to the master, and he does not have any private property and he will bear the most favors.
How could a living Bodhisattva-like old man become an evil demon?
Two men in brocade robe stepped onto the stage, one turned behind the old man and kicked the leg. The old man was extremely tough, and the other staggered and stood up straight again, refusing to kneel down.
Another man hurriedly said, "Diao Gui, stop kicking."
Diao Gui, the deputy commander of Shanyin Fort, stopped, snorted coldly, and said:
"General Huang, you are so arrogant, but you are not happy in your work! He doesn't kneel now, and he will kneel down for a while. How can you behead your head while standing?"
Huang Tang coughed twice and said:
"Look, the time has not come yet... Lord Wu and the five lords are here, so don't do it too ugly. This morning, Lord Wu ordered the old Cangtou to clean the blood, wear a headscarf, and change into a new clothes. What should you know? I just want him to be more energetic to have a deterrent effect. What is the meaning of killing a dead dog?"
Diao Gui twisted his head, snorted in his nostrils, and muttered to himself.
"Hmph, I don't have as many colorful things as you do."
Huang Tang looked anxiously at a ruler stuck on the ground. Only a little bit of the shadow fell left. It was about to be heard at noon. Looking at the sky again, a trace of joy quickly passed by his face, no one noticed it.
A dark cloud floated over and the sky was cloudy.
Huang Tang turned around and walked to Lao Cangtou, pointed at the tip of his nose and cursed:
"Old guy, you are seeking death, no wonder we are. You are very strong and capable of fighting. Can one hold on to several... Humph, I'm pushing you! Don't think that it's cloudy and you won't behead your head."
Huang Tang said this very quickly, almost passing by, but he took the word "hold" very seriously.
The old man looked up at the sky.
They both knew each other and were both underground members. Lao Cangtou treated the slaves in Shanyin Castle in order to connect with Huang Tang, who was the commander of the guard.
At the critical moment, why do you still have to "hold it"?
Huang Tang hoped that Commander Zhou Rong would come to rescue him, and he took the opportunity to incite the slave uprising. This work took several years to cultivate a group of backbones.
Lao Cangtou felt that this move was too reckless and undesirable.
Wu Taiyi was worried that he could not catch them all in one place!
Although the guards in front of Shanyin Fort are not strict, there are elite soldiers hidden in the fort. The periphery seems to be slack, but in fact, the warriors in the Tonggu realm have been scattered batch after batch, waiting for you.
The Scientists have excellent weapons and can be defeated by any lord's army. However, the number of people is too small and there is a lack of ammunition. Once they are trapped in a heavy siege, they will be difficult to escape.
The sunlight disappeared.
The slaves became turbulent, fearless and dared not make any sound, and looked into the sky.
Even the execution guards were worried.
When executing prisoners, you usually choose to be 3:00 a.m. at this time, the sun is the most intense and the yang energy is the most vigorous. It can suppress evil spirits and prevent the wronged soul from turning into evil ghosts.
But as the time is approaching, the sky is getting dark, isn't it appropriate to see blood?
A Taoist in Qingyi was surrounded by everyone and walked from the gatehouse of the castle to the fence. It was Guangming that led Wu Taiyi and the five lords in a radius of 200 miles.
The guy rolled his eyes and looked at the sky, raised his sleeves and brushed it.
call……
The strong wind blew.
A white light came from bottom to top and soared into the sky.
The clouds cracked in an instant, revealing a large hole, and the sun shone vertically like a golden arrow. There was only a little shadow left on the ruler, almost invisible, and it was about to arrive at noon.
The clouds move with their sleeves, and their power is unparalleled.
The slaves were trembling and dared not look around, and felt dark and cool breezes everywhere. Only Shanyin Castle was bathed in the sun, which was extremely magical.
The people on the gatehouse saw the rain drizzle drizzle drizzle two hundred feet away, and it drizzled, making a river of broken duckweed.
The five lords scrambled to flatter.
One talk:
"Master Wu's magical skills are extraordinary, shocking the world and crying ghosts and gods..."
One who is unwilling to fall behind said:
"Master Wu casually whirled his sleeves, and the strong wind rushed straight into the sky and shook the clouds. If he used a little more force, he would probably collapse the sky and the earth..."
Wu Taiyi's eyes were cold and swept under the castle, and he retreated back into the building with no expression on his face. What kind of gale was shining with the clouds? It was the bright light mirror hidden in his palm.
There are thousands of magic weapons in the Taoist sect, and the three most famous treasures are the Shanhe Map, the Haotian Mirror, and the Qiankun Bag.
The Temple of Light imitates the bright light mirror made by the Haotian Mirror, also known as the Haotian Mirror. Only the Light Master is qualified to be equipped. Although they can only transform into the upper level of the alchemy, once they fully stimulate the power of this mirror, even the real person at the peak of the spirit must retreat.
The four lords who were ordered to come nodded and bowed, followed Wu Taiyi back, but Lu Changyuan stayed.
