Chapter Fifty-Nine, Blood Moon Flower
When Du Guofu heard Du Xiaoqing's name, his expression immediately became hideous.
He got up and pounced on Xue Jian, but Xue Jian dodged sideways.
"What did you do to my daughter? She's still a kid and doesn't know anything. ”
Du Guofu fell to the ground and looked at Xue Jian angrily.
"Your daughter is fine, I took me out, but she was in the secret room under the gazebo in the back garden of Du Mansion, and she was possessed by a strange flower, you honestly, what is it. ”
Xue Jian looked condescendingly, his voice was cold, and he said without any sympathy.
Hearing this, Du Guofu's face changed again, and panic flashed in his eyes, as if his biggest secret had been discovered.
He shook his head.
"I don't know, I don't know what secret room, what flower. ”
Xue saw a sneer on the corner of his mouth and sneered.
"Du Guofu, you'd better think clearly, with your current situation, it is inevitable to die, and there are so many people in the Du family, all of them will die because of you.
Now that only your daughter has any hope of surviving, you really want to watch your Du family wipe out. ”
Du Guofu's expression struggled, and he was silent for a long time, and he slowly spoke.
"Why should I believe you, how can you prove that my daughter is still alive? I was taken out by you again, you are a member of the Fifth Prince, how can you be so kind?"
Xue Jian suddenly laughed.
It's a reversal of black and white, obviously you yourself accepted bribes and preyed on the people, but now it seems that I deliberately framed you and became a villain.
He threw a jade hairpin in front of Du Guofu and said coldly.
"This is your daughter's thing, whether you can save her or not, you can do it yourself, I don't have so much spare time to intrigue with you. ”
Du Guofu picked up the jade hairpin, and tears flowed down at once.
This jade hairpin was given to her by him on Du Xiaoqing's fifteenth birthday, if he didn't trust the other party, Du Xiaoqing would never give this jade hairpin to others.
He asked in a low voice.
"Is my daughter still alive after being possessed by that flower?"
Xue Jian nodded and replied.
"She's still alive, but there's a crescent blood flower growing on her heart, what the hell is that?"
Du Guofu suddenly looked excited, as if he had encountered great sorrow and joy, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, and said in ecstasy.
"Ancestors bless, ancestors bless, my Du family has finally produced a person whose blood has recovered. ”
"Blood resuscitation?" Xue Jian frowned.
The matter has come to this, and Du Guofu has nothing to hide, he bowed down to Xue Jian and pleaded.
"Lord Xue, please have a lot of them, don't hurt my daughter, keep her life, it will definitely be of great use to you in the future. ”
Xue Jian said suspiciously.
"Tell me what's going on? What is blood resuscitation?"
Du Guofu nodded and said slowly.
"My Du family was originally not from the Nanyang Continent, but migrated from a place called Blood Moon Island in the open sea.
On that island grew a lot of blood-colored flowers like crescents, which we call the blood moon flowers, and they are also the sacred flowers of our island residents.
There, every newborn child can be blessed with the Holy Flower, so as to open the bloodline, obtain a powerful bloodline power, and the speed of martial arts cultivation is very fast. ”
When Du Guofu said this, he couldn't help but sigh lightly.
"It's just that because of a war, Blood Moon Island was destroyed, and most of the inhabitants of the island died, only the ancestor of my Du family escaped with some holy flower seeds and drifted to the Nanyang Continent.
In a remote place, the ancestors of my Du family lived in seclusion and planted those seeds, but these seeds could not take root and sprout no matter what.
The ancestors studied for many years and discovered that the seeds could only take root if they were irrigated with their blood. ”
Xue Jian frowned.
No wonder that kind of son would avoid him and fly directly into Du Xiaoqing's mouth, absorbing blood.
It's just such an evil thing, can it be a good thing?
Du Guofu seemed to know that he would think so, so he explained.
"The Holy Flower cannot grow in the Nanyang Continent because of the relationship between water and soil, and it does not need human blood, in Blood Moon Island, the Holy Flower is just like ordinary flowers, everywhere. ”
Xue Jian said curiously.
"That being the case, then why didn't your Du family have a martial arts cultivator, but instead became an official in the imperial city. ”
Du Guofu sighed, his eyes showing sadness and helplessness.
"Although the Holy Flower can take root and bloom after being irrigated with blood, the children born in the Nanyang Continent will not be blessed by the Holy Flower no matter what, but will be sucked away by the Holy Flower.
After many attempts, the ancestors had no choice but to give up, but without the blessing of the Holy Flower, our bloodline would never be opened, and there would never be a martial cultivator.
In order to explore the truth of the destruction of Blood Moon Island, the ancestor chose to take refuge in Emperor Taizu of the Jiang royal family, and fought with him in all directions, expanded the territory, and established the Dayu Dynasty, which laid the foundation of the Du family in the imperial city. ”
Xue Jian thought for a moment and asked again.
"The blessing of the holy flower you are talking about is to make the flower bloom on the heart?"
Du Guofu nodded and became excited again.
"This is what the ancient books handed down from our ancestors recorded.
When the holy flower blooms, the born baby is placed under the flower, and the baby will be blessed with the holy flower, and a holy flower totem will appear in the heart and mouth from then on, and it will never dissipate.
As for whether flowers bloom on the heart, there is no record of this in ancient books. ”
Xue Jian's brows furrowed again.
He always felt that this matter was too evil, and it should be related to feeding Du Xiaoqing to take the big pill, otherwise Du Xiaoqing would definitely die.
"After your daughter's bloodline recovers, in addition to her fast martial arts cultivation, does she have any other talents?"
Du Guofu hesitated for a moment and replied.
"It is recorded in ancient books that the inhabitants of Blood Moon Island call themselves the Blood Moon Clan, and they have the power to curse the moon worship, and it is said that on the night of the full moon, they worship the moon to curse any creature who can see the moon. ”
Xue saw a flash of light in his eyes, and cursed the moon, how could this sound more and more like a cult heresy.
"Where are all the ancient books about the Blood Moon Clan in your family?"
Du Guofu had already said so much, and he didn't intend to hide anything, so he said clearly.
"It's all in the dark compartment in the bookcase in my study, enter the door and walk three steps to the right, there is a stone brick that can be opened, and inside is the hidden grid switch. ”
When Xue Jian learned this, he stopped staying and prepared to leave.
At this time, Du Guofu knelt down towards him again, and his haggard and tired face was full of pleading.
"Lord Xue, please be sure to save my daughter's life, after her bloodline recovers, her martial arts talent is very high, and she will definitely be able to help you in the future." ”
Xue saw that his expression was sincere, and nodded at him.
"Don't worry, since I'm here and asking you so much, I must be trying to save her. ”
After saying that, he pushed open the cell door and walked out, and after leaving the criminal department, he quickly returned to Du Mansion and found an ancient book sewn from fish skin in the secret compartment of the study.
