An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

Chapter 91: curse

Views:

After Jingchen finished speaking, he coughed lightly: "The poor monk is finished."

Wei Lian glanced back at Ji Yue, and after a while he asked, "... Since the Resurrection Pill can keep him healthy and free from disease and disaster, why does he still contract the plague and the medicine stone has no effect?"

"He is not sick, nor is he poisoned." Jun Zhu said surprisingly.

"He was cursed."

Wei Lian frowned fiercely: "Curse?"

"I'm going to ask this brother." Jun Zhu turned his eyes to Zhang Xuwen and smiled, "Why don't you tell me, what have you done?"

Zhang Xuwen looked terrified, closed his lips tightly, and resolutely did not say a word.

Wei Lian's expression turned cold: "Speak."

He thought Zhang Xuwen was suspicious before, but he just used his intuition and had no evidence. At that time, the most important task was to fight against the plague, so I didn't pursue it any further, and wanted to wait for it to be released in the future.

But if it was because of this negligence that this result was the result... Wei Lian had the heart to kill him.

"Don't say it." Jun Zhu spread out his palm, "It's just hiding such a thing."

When Zhang Xuwen saw the thing in his palm, his face turned pale and his heart was ashes.

It was a sculpture, made of gold, carefully carved, and of great value.

If it was just the same golden statue, it would be fine, but this sculpture is a five-clawed golden dragon with blood jade as a bead, which acts as a dragon's eye and is lifelike.

After staring at it for a long time, I feel evil.

When Wei Lian saw the golden dragon statue, especially the blood-red dragon eyes, he turned his eyes away in disgust.

The statue made him feel pretty bad... even stronger than when he stepped into the yamen that day.

I think the source is from this golden dragon.

But in a yamen, how can there be a golden dragon

It should be noted that the dragon chair, the dragon couch, the dragon robe and the dragon chariot, all things related to the dragon are bound to be linked to the emperor and are exclusive to the king, and ordinary people must not overstep it. If anyone other than the king uses items related to dragons, it will be regarded as a conspiracy.

No wonder Zhang Xuwen is so secretive. If he hadn't found this object, he was just a crime of dereliction of duty, and he had a chance or two. But as soon as the golden dragon statue came out, the crime instantly rose to treason.

But a seventh-grade county magistrate, how dare he hide the golden dragon

"Now, aren't you going to speak?" Jun Zhu asked with a smile.

Zhang Xuwen opened his mouth with despair in his eyes.

It turned out that Zhang Xuwen boasted that he did not meet his talents. After coming to Qingping County, he was full of anger and resentment all day long. He can only talk on paper and has no ability to resolve cases. The people always bother him with trivial matters, and if he fails to do it, he privately scolds him as a mediocre official, which makes Zhang Xuwen even more annoyed.

One night, he saw a man in white with a mask in front of the bed. He was so frightened that he thought he had met a ghost.

But the masked man didn't do anything to him. Instead, he left something behind and told him, "Enshrine it well, and you will surely rise to the top in the future."

After saying this, the man disappeared like a gust of wind.

Zhang Xuwen was still in shock and thought it was an hallucination. When he calmed down and lit a candle and saw the thing on the table, he was even more frightened.

It was actually a golden dragon statue!

How dare he, a small county magistrate, use a dragon-shaped thing? If found, it will definitely die!

Zhang Xuwen immediately wanted to throw it away, but the words of the masked man echoed in his ears again - worship it well, and you will surely rise to the top in the future.

Stepping into the sky...

These four words can be said to have hit Zhang Xuwen's weakness. The greed was insane and daring, and it made him hesitate a little, and he didn't throw the hot potato right away.

Besides, this statue is made of real gold. Zhang Xuwen is vain by nature, and lusts after glory and wealth. When he came to Qingping County to become an official, he didn't get any oil or water. How could he be willing to throw such a large piece of gold away. In this corner of the corner, there is a statue hidden in the house, who can find it

With a fluke mentality and the idea that he would rather believe it, Zhang Xuwen really worshipped for a few days.

At first, he just had the mentality of trying, and his current situation could not be worse anyway. After a few days of making offerings, he was really lucky.

First, he picked up gold on the road, then the fool who was talking about him behind his back broke his leg in an accident, and then he was very lucky when the case was settled. Master's compliment.

Zhang Xuwen was a little flirtatious. In those few days, his face was red and his steps were brisk. Now he really believed that the golden dragon statue could make him transfer, and he also believed that he would be able to soar in the future. As for the mysterious masked man he once thought was a ghost, he was regarded as an expert who came to point him.

Unfortunately, soon after good luck, a plague broke out in Qingping County, and the people of the entire county were implicated.

At this time, Zhang Xuwen also hypnotized himself to be able to spend it safely. There were sick people everywhere in the county, but only in the yamen area, no one was infected, and he even believed that the golden dragon statue was blessing him.

Who would have thought that this was the culprit that brought disaster.

"It's really stupid." Jun Zhu sighed, "This golden dragon statue was cursed, and then worshipped by your parents and officials in Qingping County every day, the whole Qingping County suffered. Officials are mediocre, and if they are cursed again, disasters will inevitably occur. But the consequences are really plagued, and the people here will not die, and the curse cannot be lifted."

Zhang Xuwen was shocked and burst into tears: "How could I know that this statue is such an evil thing! If I had known this earlier, I would definitely throw this evil thing away!"

He is not repenting for the sins he has caused, but he is clearly aware that he has caused a catastrophe, and I am afraid there is no way to survive.

"There is no such thing as a pie in the sky." Wei Lian stared at him coldly, "In the final analysis, it's just your greed."

Zhang Xuwen panicked: "Yes, but the people here are not dead! Didn't the son control the plague! Is this curse, has it been solved?"

Jingchen sighed pitifully.

"The reason why I can control it is because the real dragon is here." Jingchen shook his head and sighed, "Once the curse falls, either thousands of people will die, or a real dragon will die."

Although all living beings are equal, it is undeniable that the life of the real dragon is noble and can be worth tens of millions of ordinary people. This curse must be ended by committing enough blood debts. Once the true dragon orderer steps into the territory of Jiangzhou and enters the scope of the curse, he will exchange his own life for the safety of the remaining countless people.

"When the last commoner recovers." Jun Zhu said lightly, "That's when the real dragon dies."

Because the real dragon does not die, more people will die.

"This curse that should have been borne by the remaining tens of millions of people is now being borne by you alone." Jun Zhu looked at Ji Yue, "Your symptoms are naturally much heavier and faster than theirs. If you don't come Here, the cursed one is my little disciple who also has a true dragon life, and if Yuzhi is cursed, he will die immediately."

"Yuzhi, this is your death."

Wei Lian was stunned: "I will... be killed immediately? Then why did he...?"

Why did Ji Yue hold on for more than a day

Is it because Ji Yue is the king, and the real dragon is more stable and powerful than him, so it lasted longer

The amount of information in these words is actually very large, and Wei Lian has already thought about it calmly. It was only today that he realized that he still had a real dragon life.

Jun Zhu shook his head: "No. He can live to this day because you fed him the Resurrection Pill."

"Yuzhi once asked me if the Resurrection Pill is an elixir." Jun Zhu said, "I will tell you now that it is indeed extraordinary. The world is full of wonders, whether it is evil spells or mysterious spells, most people in the world have never seen it. , but they all really exist. It's just that it's another world for ordinary people."

Wei Lian nodded and said calmly, "So, the master is an outsider."

Great powers, omniscient.

"I'm not an immortal, but I have more ability to see the secrets than ordinary people. I don't get involved in karma, and I don't get involved in mundane affairs. I want to remind you of many things, but God told me not to reveal them. I really don't bother to care about the mundane world. "Jun Zhu sighed, "I also accepted a little apprentice like you, and I was destined to clean up the mess for you."

Wei Lian: "..."

"Speaking of which." Jun Zhu returned to the main topic, "Revival Pill can cure all diseases and not invade all poisons. It is an extremely precious elixir. Although it can't solve the spell, it can save his life. That's why he is safe and sound. ."

Ji Yue, who only had one breath, said, "..."

Does his safety mean just not dying

"Do you understand that prophecy now?" Jun Zhu said to Wei Lian, "You can't show your edge before the crown, or you will look desperate. The reason why you show your edge is because you gave him the Resurrection Pill and solved his problem. Poison. And if you give him the Resurrection Pill, if you hit the curse yourself, of course you will die."

"So in this world, only he can stop your robbery. He took the revival pill that was supposed to save your life. This is the cause and effect of what he should have returned to you."

After hearing this, Wei Lian only caught one point.

Ji Yue will not die.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief, seeing Ji Yue's appearance at the moment, he was speechless.

... Isn't it better to live than to die

"Is there a way to completely defuse the curse?" Wei Lian asked.

"Naturally." Jun Zhu said, handing a medicinal pill to Ji Yue, "eat it."

Ji Yue took it without hesitation.

What followed was a fantastic scene.

The severely rotten arm was restored to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his appearance was also rapidly recovering, shrinking to only a dark red at the corner of his eye.

The young man's face is handsome and coquettish, and the dark red eyes add a flaw to this perfect cheek, but it is even more charming and gorgeous.

... To put it bluntly, Ji Yue has a good foundation, so a big piece of red can make him look arrogant. If you change an ordinary face, it will undoubtedly be ugly.

"This is the mark of the blood curse." Jun Zhu said, "The medicine I gave can only make his symptoms subside temporarily, and it will be the same as before in three months. The revival pill can only hang him for one life. But he needs to recover completely. , also need to kill the cursed person."

"The person who cast the curse will not die. After three months, he will return to his original state and his body will be intact." Jun Zhu glanced at Wei Lian, "I believe you wouldn't want to see him like that."

"Who is the person who cast the curse...?" Wei Lian asked, his mind racing fast.

If we talk about incantation, it is natural that Liang Kingdom is the most prosperous. The Gu poison witchcraft over there is notorious, and Wei Lian is now 10,000 regretting why he did not learn the spell.

Otherwise, he would be the first to curse the one who cursed Ji Yue.

There is also the mysterious man who handed the golden dragon statue to Zhang Xuwen, who is also of concern.

The other party is so painstakingly making troubles in Jiangzhou, and it is definitely aimed at Qin. This curse is clearly full of malice for the real dragon's fate. Ji Yue was unable to come, and the Jiangzhou plague spread, which damaged the foundation of Qin. Ji is getting more and more, and the curse is dying in her body, and the Qin country is even more at stake.

Extremely vicious.

"It's up to you." Jun Zhu shook his head. He was not omniscient. The deduction had already consumed a lot of skill and could no longer be accurate.

"But I have a clue." Jun Zhu said again, "Everything is about cause and effect. The Resurrection Pill is a holy thing. You get it from a girl, it's your fate, and in exchange for it, you have to help her solve a problem. "

"To solve this matter, this curse will probably be solved."
