In ancient times, he became a god in the mountains.

Chapter 143: The Treasonous Dream

Gu Yuexi watched the Jiang family members walking towards Qinyang County. She took a closer look. The Prince Jiang in the team was young, dignified and upright, with a faint purple aura surrounding him. She knew very well that this was the fortune of an emperor.

It seems that a new ruler of the world has appeared.

That night, the sky was starry and peaceful.

The Jiang family, escorted by the officials, finally arrived outside Qinyang County. It was already dark and the city gates were closed. They could only spend the night in the woods outside the county town. They lit a fire and everyone in the Jiang family sat around it to keep warm and rest.

"Husband, is your leg injury okay?" Madam Jiang Shao asked worriedly.

Prince Jiang shook his head, and while forcing himself to endure the severe pain, he said to his wife, "My leg injury is fine. How's Madam? Did the child bother you?"

The darkness hid the beads of sweat on his forehead. His voice was the same as usual, and Madam Jiang did not notice that he was pale.

She said with emotion, "I'm fine too. We will arrive in Qinyang County tomorrow. According to the officer escorting us, we will reach Yunwu Town in half a month. When we get to Yunwu Town, I will find a doctor to check my husband's leg injury."

Jiang Chenghui nodded: "It's getting late, take a rest, we have to travel early tomorrow morning."

When he glanced over, he saw that the others had already fallen asleep.

He had no sleepiness at all. He lay on the grass, looking at the bright moon in the sky, feeling tormented in his heart.

"His Majesty……"

He murmured lightly, Your Majesty, he is so cruel.

His father died while serving the country, and he exiled the Jiang family in the blink of an eye. The bleak future left him powerless to resist. When will he be able to seek justice for his father?

It was not until the second half of the night that he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Suddenly he opened his eyes abruptly and found himself in a strange place, surrounded by mountains and clear water, like a fairyland. In front of him stood a high mountain, shrouded in mist, and at the foot of the mountain stood a sacred statue, tall and carved from milky white marble.

"Where is this?" he exclaimed.

At this moment he was standing in front of the statue.

It was quiet all around, as if he was the only one in the world.

"Roar--"

Suddenly, the heaven and earth shook, the clouds in the sky were pushed aside, and a long howl broke through the clouds and pierced his eardrums, making him tremble all over.

what happened?

Jiang Chenghui was puzzled.

I was shocked and confused.

"Roar——" The long roar came again. This time he stared at a certain direction in the sky, and a golden dragon rushed towards him.

"No..." He was shocked as he watched the golden dragon swoop down.

"Roar--"

A long, intimidating roar sounded in his ears, and a giant golden dragon entered his body.

"No!"

Jiang Chenghui woke up from his dream with a scream.

"Chenghui! What's wrong?" Seeing her son waking up from his dream, Mrs. Jiang asked hurriedly with concern.

Mrs. Jiang, who was watching her husband sleeping, also woke up: "Husband."

Jiang Chenghui was still gasping for breath in shock.

He wiped the sweat from his head and panted, "Mom, Madam, I'm fine. I just had a strange nightmare."

Thinking that her son was restless because of trivial matters at home, Mrs. Jiang sighed: "What you think about during the day will appear in your dreams at night. Our family is still alive, so it's not too bad. Chenghui, don't worry too much."

"Mother, you misunderstood. I didn't dream about trivial matters at home. I just dreamed of some strange things." Jiang Chenghui shook his head.

Madam Jiang Shao asked, "What did your husband dream about?"

"I..." Looking at the official in the distance, Jiang Chenghui chose to keep silent. This dream was too outrageous and telling it out might bring trouble to his family.

He dreamed of a fairyland, in which there was a tall statue of a god. A huge golden dragon appeared in the clouds and broke into his body. He must never tell these words to anyone. He had never thought of rebelling, so how could he dream of such a strange thing.

"Hiss!" He took a breath and saw that his leg wound was bleeding again.

Unless something unexpected happens, his leg will never be healed in this lifetime. He feels extremely worried and sad, and for some reason, a sense of resentment arises in his heart.

The next day, the Jiang family and their entourage were again forced to walk by the officials.

In Taohua Village, the village chief cleaned up several vacant courtyards in the village and waited for the Jiang family to stay there. The Jiang family had done a favor to his son, and they would definitely not treat the benefactor's descendants unfairly.

The few vacant courtyards in the village originally had owners, but their owners all died in the three-year drought. Now they have been cleaned up for the Jiang family to live in.

When the villagers heard that there would be other people settling in the village in the future, they hurried to inquire about the news from the village chief. Zhang Youhe did not hide anything and told them everything.

The villagers secretly thought that Zhang Youhe's family was a family of loyal and righteous people.

"Golden Saint Goddess, please bless my son's benefactor's descendants to arrive safely in Taohua Village." Village chief Zhang Youhe did not forget to pray in front of the statue at the foot of the mountain.

Gu Yuexi was outside at the moment and did not hear his prayer.

A group of soldiers were trapped in a canyon. The leading general looked at the thick fog rising around them and became alert.

"Why is there such a thick fog here all of a sudden? The sky was clear just now."

The deputy general next to him looked panicked and pale, and said in a trembling voice: "General Zhao, I heard that there are demons and monsters here. Will it be..."

"Shut up! A gentleman does not speak of strange things. If you dare to talk nonsense again, you will be punished by military law!" The general's name was Zhao Hu. He was the main general sent by the King of Great Xia to fight against the Western Xinjiang.

Foreign tribes in Western Xinjiang have been disturbing the border of Daxia for a long time. The emperor personally led an expedition to the south and sent Zhao Hu to lead troops to fight against Western Xinjiang. After fighting with the Western Xinjiang countries for ten years, he finally destroyed the last small country in Western Xinjiang. At this moment, he was returning to the court as ordered by the monarch, but he was trapped in a canyon.

Near this canyon is the Cliff of Broken Souls. According to legend, there are many demons and monsters there. Zhao Hu's hands are stained with blood countless times. He is confident that even the demons and monsters dare not approach him, so he took a shortcut to the foot of the Cliff of Broken Souls without hesitation.

As soon as they entered the canyon, they were trapped in the canyon by a thick fog that covered the sky.

There was no way forward, and Zhao Hu was extremely anxious.

They have been trapped in the canyon for three days.

I tried many methods but to no avail.

Not to mention anything else, their food and supplies will run out in a few days and the soldiers will surely starve to death.

Most of the plants in the canyon are poisonous, so they can't even touch the weeds in this situation.

That's why Zhao Hu was anxious.

"General, there are many strange things on this Cliff of Broken Souls. We have to believe it." The military advisor said helplessly.

"Let's walk further. This place is really weird. The terrain of this canyon is obviously flat and we can get out in a few hours. But we walked for three days and still couldn't get out." Zhao Hu said in frustration.

The invincible general was helpless here.

"Where is this place?" Outside the Golden Holy Palace, there was a thick fog. It seemed that there were voices coming from the fog, but it seemed as if they were separated into two worlds by the strange fog.

[Host, this is below the Cliff of Broken Souls, the boundary between the northwest of Daxia and the western border. If you want to assist the new emperor to ascend the throne, you must have the help of a large army. The army you need right now is trapped in the fog monster’s bewitching fog.]

There are groups of demons and monsters at the foot of the Cliff of Broken Souls. They will confuse people who enter the canyon below the cliff and make people lost inside.

This is a restricted area for humans, and many people who break in here have not left safely.
