Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Ninth Blood Curse

"In the year 248 of the Xin calendar, when the familiar roar of the boulder under his feet sounded again, the entire tomb underwent earth-shaking changes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info the world opened, countless 'star rhyme fireflies' poured in from unknown corners, and the tomb was illuminated by this 'starlight' like daylight. The entire underground city seems to have transformed from the quaint and rusty, silently welcoming the arrival of the new emperor...... Later I found out that it was the burial chamber that had been rotating for a whole week. Seventeen years later, I finally came out of this hell that saw no light of day. However, 17 years have passed, and now and ......"

"Seventeen years, this is the years I learned from a hunter in the mountains. I was confined underground for seventeen years, and the coldness, the darkness, the despair, the pain, the endless murmuring of water, the roar of boulders, and hatred grew in my heart. But it's nothing, and I can live with it. However, in addition to this, the nine robbers who stole and died enjoyed the sun, moon and stars for 17 years. And I'm like a vole, surviving until now. ”

"With the memories of those years, I slowly walked towards the col where the 'Gogu Village' is located. Climb a high slope, but there is still the shadow of the village. Standing on the back mountain for thousands of years, the 'faithful stone' that does not go out of the wind and rain, a boulder shoulder to shoulder with the mountain. At some point, it collapsed from the top of the mountain, burying the entire 'Goko Village'. Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar land beneath my feet, I once again felt helpless, hopeless, and helpless, like an abandoned baby, wandering aimlessly in the mountains......"

The father continued to tell the story of the invisible light in the voice of the ancestors, and then the unfinished chapters of the elder brother. The father's tone was calm and empty, as if he had been incarnated hundreds of years ago, lonely and confused.

"It wasn't until I met the hunter again that he recognized me, Zhong Song, who was one of the many villagers with foreign surnames in the village seventeen years ago. The man who was not afraid of the sky and the earth back then is now gray-haired. But I was still the same as when I went to the tomb, and the years were like the sunshine of the stone tomb, leaving no trace on me. While he was amazed at my appearance, he also told the secret of the 'natural disaster' of that year. ”

"That night seventeen years ago, on the third day that the nine villagers came out. Because he was hunting by himself, and thinking that he didn't have a wife or children to take care of, he spent the night in a cave not far from the village. But I happened to see the nine villagers leading their families and driving the carts and horses quietly to the depths of the back mountain. After a while, the whole mountain trembled. The long-standing 'Faithfulness Stone' that stood on the top of the hill rolled down and covered the entire village. ”

After that, Zhong Song handed me a bag of tattered animal skins. It is said that it was left by the old patriarch, under the ruins of the 'Faithfulness Stone', between the cracks of the two boulders. The patriarch of Hugu Village, my father, took his last breath and left me with the only thing to gain. It turned out that my father always believed that I was not dead, and even though the nine foreign clansmen unanimously said that I had died in the tomb, he still believed in this idea when he was dying. He asked Zhong Song to give the hide to the people who needed it. But this was seventeen years, and during that time, he never met anyone again, let alone the nine thieves. I'm the only one who needs it......"

"In this animal skin is all that is written. From the Nine Star Longyuan - the Sansheng Tomb, to the ancient village. From Jiuding unswerving, to 'faithful' unswerving...... It's just that all of this is not what I care about, and none of this can extinguish the hatred in my heart. The only thing that is comforting is a vein drawn in the inconspicuous corner of the lower right corner of the hide, which the hide calls the Ninth Blood Curse. ”

"What, is this the Nine Star Dragon Yuan? Sansheng Tomb ...... Nine Star Dragon Yuan - Three Lives Tomb, why didn't I think of it? My brother, who had been listening quietly, suddenly became excited.

The father didn't expect his brother to ask like this, and he was also surprised: "What? Yang'er, do you know this place? ”

"The Tomb of the Three Lives of the Nine Star Longyuan is the name I came across by chance in an ancient book of the Yuantan Sect. The book says that it is the origin of the Three Domains Kendo, the flourishing of the dragon veins of Kyushu, and the origin of martial arts in the world...... I didn't expect it to be hidden here. ”

My father looked at my brother intently for a long time, until I couldn't help but wave my hand and pull him out of his thoughts. After that, he continued to read the inscription on the stone wall.

"The Ninth Blood Curse is a blood curse by pulling out the thumbnail of the right hand, then drawing a talisman with finger blood, and then throwing it into the flames. The blood curse is like a maggot attached to the bones, the crime is the ninth generation, and the disaster affects the nine generations, so it is called the 'ninth blood curse'. After learning this mantra, I have been searching the world for more than ten years. Fortunately, the nine robbers who stole and died were finally found by me. I swear I will regain what I have lost. My pain, everything I have endured, and the lives of the people in the ancient village, large and small, will be repaid to them and their families a thousand times over. The blood curse of the ninth world, the curse of the ninth generation, became my biggest reliance for a while. ”

"Curse the Ninth World, what a vicious thing! How could the ancestors choose this method, it's really a big villain. "I subconsciously said to myself, and I felt bad for a moment after I finished speaking.

"You erector, do you think that the ancestors are just mediocre people blinded by hatred? Listen to me quietly, and it's not too late to speak. ”

"In the two hundred and sixty-third year of the Xin calendar, I finally captured them all back to Hugu Village, and nine butchers who were consumed by profit when they were young, and now more than half a hundred years old, knelt on this weather-beaten ruin. I am full of hatred, and I believe that I will be able to make a decision this time, and they will pay the price with their lives, praying like livestock to save their lives. ”

"I was wrong, so frivolous and ridiculously wrong. When these nine robbers with blood on their hands saw me, they did not kneel to beg for mercy as I imagined, but looked relieved, as if they had been waiting for this moment to come. Thirty-two years have only taught me to hate. I could never have imagined that they would commit suicide one after another in front of the Gogu Village, using the dagger that had been hidden in their sleeves for a long time. It was as if he had long been prepared for death. ”

"I looked at the nine elderly corpses on the ground, and I felt that my heart was vast and there was nothing to rely on. Thirty-two years of accumulated hatred, Huo Ran is over, what happens after that? There's one more thing I have to do before I bury their bodies, but it's the only skill I've ever had. ”

"Pull out the thumb armor of the Nine Monarchs, paint it with finger blood, and then throw it into the raging fire. I will be supplemented by the luck of the ninth generation of the Ai family to help the nine monarchs protect the ninth generation. When the time comes, dust returns to dust, soil returns to soil, Jiuding Town has three lives, and nine women are married to Aifu. Marriage fruit! Marriage fruit ......" my father finished speaking, and breathed a long sigh of relief. Turning to look at the empty orange rainbow, I don't know what the tears wiped away from the sleeves taste.

……

"Father, I agree. I am willing to marry my little sister as my wife......" My brother's words and the cold breeze drifted into the corridor, floated out of the tomb, and dissipated into the vast starry sky.
