The Beyonder of Xingyue Gensokyo Chapter 971
Pushed and shoved by another soldier, Meihong inexplicably joined the team that followed Yue Yankasa to the top of Shengyue Mountain.
It was an old man, and even his spirit was not good, but even so, he still straightened his back and worked hard to complete this mission.
Yue Yankasa was not as serious and rigid as he imagined, but was very kind. The soldiers nearby respected him very much and respected him very much. This upright man spent his whole life to maintain his reputation, that's why he was called Sent to guard and destroy the elixir.
Yue Yankata glanced at Meihong, which made Meihong's forehead sweat from fright, but Yue Yankasa didn't blame her for being late, and didn't say much.
"Soldiers, I am a vulgar person, and I was entrusted by the Lord Taizheng to take the medicine of Penglai's immortality to the top of the holy mountain and destroy it with the flames of the kingdom of God. I am so terrible. I have already stepped half of my foot into the coffin. This may be my last task, and it is also the most important task in my life. I am terrified and trembling in my heart. Thanks to the protection of all the soldiers, I was able to reach the foot of the holy mountain safely. The mountain of the holy mountain is not suitable for the army to advance. Today, I will take advantage of the darkness and let the soldiers accompany me to complete the last journey. I hope that I will work hard to fulfill the destiny and return to Kyoto ! I want to thank everyone here for their help!"
Although he is already old, Yue Yanli's speech is still full of energy. Just words, it gives people a great sense of trust, as if it was the awe-inspiring righteousness cultivated by the real great Confucianism in the dynasty.
"Hey! It's a great blessing for us sergeants to have the honor to go to the holy mountain with your lord. How dare you thank you, and ask your lord to walk in the middle, and let us protect you, so as not to overwhelm the younger generation!"
The leading sergeant was somewhat educated, he replied righteously.
Meihong didn't know anything, she was just so dazed, and followed the last troops to the top of the mountain.
Even Fujiwara Meihong felt it was unbelievable that the progress of this matter was really too smooth...
Chapter 0230
Ascending the holy mountain from the foothills on the back, when the altitude is still low, thousands of plants, jungles, and springs are layered on top of each other, confusing people's eyes. Under the moonlight, the white snow on the top of the mountain reflects light, making Meihong feel It is to temporarily forget hatred and immerse yourself in this beauty.
Due to the eruption of the crater, countless caves have been formed at the foot of the mountain, which are in various poses and with different expressions, and are very charming. Some caves emit steaming heat, and some caves are as cold as ice. Looking inside along the cave, the stalactites on the walls are frozen There are icicles, which will not melt all year round.
The team climbed to the crater on the top of the mountain amidst the boundless beauty. Due to Yue Yankata's age, he walked very slowly, and the speed of the whole team was not fast.
In the area under the snow, because people often climb the mountain to worship, the path is relatively smooth. With stop and go, at 10 noon on the second day, we came to the intersection of ice and snow and rocks.
The increase in altitude brought down the temperature, and Meihong tightened her ill-fitting armor, imitating those soldiers to make a fire and cook.
Here, the mountain peak is already more than 2,000 meters above sea level. Because this world is different from the original world of Liangyiluo, both the mountain peak and the scope of the land are much larger, just like the highest peak in the ancient country. It exceeds the range of 10,000 meters, almost reaching the boundary of the universe.
From here to the top of the holy mountain, all are volcanic rocks formed by volcanic eruptions. This place is covered by volcanic ashes. Whether it is forests or springs, they are gone. Even the trails for climbing are not obvious, except for occasional ones. Pilgrims take this path, and it's truly off the beaten track.
"From here on, the road ahead will be difficult."
The leader, Yueyan Li, smiled and warned everyone. After lunch, the whole team continued to climb.
Looking up, Meihong saw that they had just walked one-third of the entire mountain, and as they went up, the road became steeper and the roads that could be walked became rarer. When night fell again, they hadn't even walked before. More than half of the way, and the body is even more exhausted.
The team stopped and prepared to camp in the cold wind. Meihong thought about it for a while and thought that it would be better to steal medicine after walking halfway up the mountain in two days. At that time, they were already close to the destination. Presumably these soldiers , will have relaxed its vigilance.
Meihong herself is a little unbelievable, she has never thought about this kind of problem before, and she has never thought about it. When something really happens, she can think about everything so rationally.
But these are not important to Meihong now. She curled up in a corner, barely feeling the faint flames, and slowly fell asleep in the cold and lonely mountain wind.
Two days later, the team had passed halfway up the mountain of Shengyue, and Meihong felt that tonight should be the best time.
This night, it seemed that even the moon was ready for Meihong. The huge full moon hid behind the clouds, and only a few rays of light fell on the earth through the clouds. Almost impossible to ignite. Meihong resisted the physical exhaustion and mental sleepiness, and kept working hard until the fourth watch of the second day, when this human being was the most exhausted, she crawled secretly and went to the middle of the small camp. touch.
The snoring of soldiers came from all around. In this extreme weather, even elite sergeants were exhausted. In the middle of the camp is a small tent. Relying on the weak human perception of the night, Meihong gradually gets into the tent.
The inside of the tent was relatively warmer than the outside, so Meihong exhaled a cold air, rubbed her hands, and carefully searched in the tent.
Yue Yankasa was still sleeping here, Meihong's movements were very light, for fear of waking up the old man and exposing herself.
Unlike what he imagined, Yueyan Li didn't carry the pot containing the elixir, but randomly placed it in a corner of the tent, allowing Meihong to easily hold it in her hand.
Just when Meihong was overjoyed and was about to run away with the pot, a faint light suddenly lit up in the tent.
"Well……"
The frightened Meihong was about to yell, but fortunately she reacted quickly and covered her mouth with her hand, so she didn't yell out, waking up the guarding soldiers.
The light in the dark was a bit dazzling, Mei Hong squinted her eyes and looked at the light, Yue Yankata woke up at some point, he lit a small candle, the light of this candle was very faint and dim, Yu was discovered by soldiers outside.
"Hey... you still acted, Ms. Fujiwara... you have a good grasp of timing. If I hadn't been on your guard for a long time, I'm afraid you would have stolen the elixir."
The old man sighed, sighed, and spoke in a loving voice.
Meihong forced herself to calm down, she tightened the pot containing the elixir into her arms, and said in a low voice: "How did Master Yueyankasa know that I am from the Fujiwara family? How did he know that I was coming?" ?”
As Meihong asked, she carefully looked at the surrounding environment, trying to find a way to escape, she had been found now, if Yue Yankasa yelled, Meihong would really be unable to escape.
"I have attended Mr. Fujiwara's banquet before, and met Ms. Fujiwara in the Fujiwara mansion. At that time, I was deeply impressed, and I also remembered you deeply... As for why I knew that you were coming, hehe... Miss, your hiding skills are really not very good. On the way to Shengyue, when you secretly followed the army, you were discovered by the scouts. Based on the appearance that the scouts told me, I guessed that it was Miss Fujiwara."
"...The Fujiwara family is lonely because of Lord Taizheng. It is reasonable for you, miss, to want to steal the elixir that belongs to Lord Taizheng. I know that it is not easy for you, miss, so I just turn a blind eye and let it go." You follow us."
After hearing this, Fujiwara Meihong clenched her fists, gritted her teeth and said, "Then I will sneak attack and pretend to be a soldier, and come here with you, my lord?"
"Of course I specifically instructed you. If you hadn't been discovered by your lame trick, Ms. Fujiwara, how could you have come here?"
Yue Yanli smiled heartily, and the old man spoke to Mei Hong kindly, as if looking at his own child.
"Hey... I have no right to comment on what Mr. Taizheng has done, but Ms. Fujiwara, you should live a good life, and you shouldn't come to this muddy water. I have never broken any promises in my life. Before entering the ground, this is probably the last mission, I hope Miss Fujiwara will not make it difficult for me, put down the elixir in your hand, and then leave by yourself, I will pretend that I did not see you."
Yue Yankasa sighed, gently persuading.
Fujiwara sister's red face turned blue and turned white, her little hands clenched and then loosened. Repeated this several times, she seemed to have finally made up her mind.
"Master Yueyankasa, you are an upright person. Mehong has heard about your deeds since she was very young. Mehong admires you. However, this is Mehong's last hope. Maybe she will never have this chance again, so , please blame Meihong for being unreasonable and unable to agree to your request!"
Meihong said firmly, under the panicked gaze of Yue Yanli, she pulled off the lid of the pot suddenly, a faint fragrance overflowed from it, without thinking about it, she poured her mouth to the mouth of the pot, and a small The small pill was swallowed by Meihong...
Chapter 0231 Death of the Upright
The medicine of Penglai didn't bloom as brightly as imagined, and it didn't make the limbs comfortable as imagined. After Meihong swallowed the small, unremarkable pill, she just felt hot all over her body, and the heat flowed down her limbs. Skeleton, flowing all over the body, from the body to the soul.
The soul seemed to have come out of the body at this moment. In this short moment, Meihong seemed to understand the truth of the whole world, and her soul was integrated with the whole world.
The blurry eyes became clear in an instant, and Fujiwara Meihong blinked, a little puzzled, looking at her body in confusion, is this the so-called immortality? But she really didn't feel any change in herself.
"you you you……"
Yue Yan was trembling with anger, he clutched his chest, pointed at Mei Hong with his finger, but couldn't say a word.
He suddenly opened his mouth wide, as if he was going to shout loudly to call the soldiers in.
Mei Hong panicked. Although she had acted calmly before, she was still just a young girl, like a student who made a mistake and was afraid of being discovered and punished by the teacher.
Meihong's head was clouded, and she couldn't think carefully about what would happen next, and she didn't dare to imagine what would happen after she was caught. In a panic, she threw herself forward and held Yueyan down with her hand. Li's mouth, to prevent him from yelling, the old man who was about to be buried was naturally not as strong as the young girl in his youth, his whole body staggered back under Meihong's strength.
After dancing and dancing, the lighted candle was suddenly knocked to the ground. The flame was very small, but the tent was full of inflammable materials. The light of the flame quickly began to expand, and the simple tent burned in an instant. .
"Boom..."
Due to the burning of the tent, all the fixtures supporting the tent fell down. A dagger hanging on the side of the tent just happened to come out of its sheath, and fell down along the gravity of the earth, as if it was fate As a result, it was a joke of the gods, and the tip of the dagger was inserted into Yue Yankasa's chest with a puff.
