Chapter 2: The Elixir of Impery
"I heard that Zhou Mo gave you an ultimatum?" In Cui Minghan's office, Xu Xing asked him while sipping the cup of good coffee in his hand. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Cui Ming patted his head, "Don't mention this to me, I will have a headache when I mention it." He walked to the sofa and sat down next to Xu Xing, "I'll tell you, I've already planned it, if she forces me again, I will resign from the unit, I don't have a place to keep my master here, anyway, now that the company is on the right track, I can be regarded as living up to the Zhen family's cultivation of me." β
"You are free and easy," Xu Xing put the coffee on the table, "but don't blame me for not reminding you, some people just like to use free and easy to hide their true feelings, and when the time comes, you will really take people away, but you will have to bear it." β
Cui Minghan shrugged his shoulders, but his mouth was still unconvinced, "Then I really can't ask for it, by the way, what is the matter with you coming to me?" Is it related to Wu Xi? β
Xu Xing nodded, "Lin Sheng is dead, and he committed suicide in front of me and Wu Xi." β
"Wow," Cui Minghan jumped up from the sofa with an excited scream, "Why did you only tell me about such a big thing now?" This...... Doesn't that mean that the two of you have to avenge your great revenge? Then Wu Xi, is it possible to come back? β
Xu Xing glanced at him, "It's quite a shrewd person, but sometimes I really don't know whether to say that you are naΓ―ve or stupid, she went to the witch clan because her parents were killed by Lin Sheng, but this does not mean that she will come back when Lin Sheng dies, she is no longer the previous Wu Xi, haven't you noticed?" β
"But in my heart, she is still that kind and upright little reporter, and I have always insisted on this." Cui Minghan clenched his fists, "I believe that as long as this kindness is still there, she will not go down the evil path." β
Xu Xingleng froze, and after a long time, he looked at Cui Minghan, but the expression on his face was a lot more relaxed, "You're right, it seems that I'm too pessimistic, we should believe her." β
Cui Minghan smiled, "You kid also admired me sometimes, let's get back to the point, after Lin Sheng died, where did she go?" β
Xu Xing's brows were deeply locked, "I came to you today to say this, after Lin Sheng committed suicide, I was going to put his soul into the jade wrench, but at this time, the Great Witch appeared, and he used the bow and arrow in his hand to knock Lin Sheng into the evil ghost path, and then left with Wu Xi." β
"What the hell is this bow and arrow, so powerful?" Cui Minghan looked at Xu Xing dumbfounded.
"I've also been thinking about this question a lot, this bow and arrow is by no means an ordinary magic weapon, it seems to be able to pass through the Three Realms and Six Realms unimpeded, and there is also a ...... of Monkey Beast."
"What is Qipi? The name already sounds terrifying. Cui Minghan shuddered, rubbed his arms and asked.
"It's really terrifying, it's the head of all demons, and it has been suppressed by the Five Thunder Orders in the tomb of General Wang Hong, but thirty years ago, it escaped and has been in the world since then and has done a lot of bad things. These are still the second, the key point is that the Great Witch also seems to want to find the Monkey, I really don't understand what he wants to do with it for himself? β
"He will resurrect a man by a scheming." A deep baritone voice came from outside, and then, the office door was opened, and a man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and muscular eyes walked in, he looked at Xu Xing, and his voice became more and more heavy, "If he succeeds, I am afraid that this world will face an unprecedented disaster." β
"Who are you?" Cui Minghan saw that the man was carrying a long sword behind him, and he knew that he was not an ordinary person.
"He's Chi Ming," Xu Xing said as he stood up and looked at the man, "but how did you find here?" β
"I'm also here for the Great Witch and the Witch." Chi Ming sat down on the sofa by himself, "Hey, if you have anything to drink, I'm dying of thirst." β
Cui Minghan hurriedly took a bottle of mineral water and handed it to him, and then watched him with reverence and poured the bottle of water into his stomach in one go.
Chi Ming wiped the corners of his mouth, looked at the two people in front of him who were eager to learn, and said slowly: "The person who wants to be resurrected by the Wu clan is Yi. β
"Yi? You can't be talking about Hou Yi, right? β
"That's right, it's Hou Yi, but it's not the Hou Yi in the mythical story you understand, the so-called Ten Days of Yi Shooting is just a legend in ancient China, but Hou Yi is a real person, and the story of Hou Yi shooting the sun is actually a bloody coup d'Γ©tat in history."
According to legend, Taikang, the king of the Xia Dynasty, was taken away from the state by Houyi when he went hunting on the north bank of Luoshui, and the history is called "Taikang lost the country". Taikang died soon after the loss of the country, the clansmen set up his younger brother Zhongkang, living near Luoshui, after the death of Zhongkang, and set up the queen as the king, the latter minister in the pursuit of Hou Yi, fled to the emperor, according to the same surname of the princes in the search for the clan. In order to prevent the revival of the Xia Houxiang's power, Hou Yi ordered the commander to kill and pour the water, and shot the Xia Houxiang with a bow and arrow, and then took control of the east. When Hou Yi attacked and killed Hou Xiang, his wife Hou Yidong fled to the land where his mother's family in southwest Lu was still in the country, and gave birth to a posthumous son, Shaokang.
The son of the prime minister, Shaokang, fled to Youyi, and with the help of Youyi, he sent troops to destroy Houyi in one fell swoop, successfully restored the country, and recovered the Xia Dynasty, known as "Shaokang Zhongxing" in history. Hou Yi's fate was very tragic, according to legend, he was ordered by Shao Kang to die, and after his death, his bones were thrown into the mass grave, let the beasts bite, and the bow and arrow that he never left were also taken away by Shao Kang and sacrificed in front of the tombstone of his father and the queen.
But then, many bizarre things happened in Shaokang's palace one after another, his palace maids and attendants died violently one after another, and even his wife was not spared, and died of bleeding next to him one night.
Shao Kang panicked, fearing that this bad luck would befall him one day, and his ministers also admonished one after another, saying that Hou Yi was not a human being, but a wizard who knew ghosts and ghosts, so his soul was not at peace after death, and he needed to bury the lives of everyone in Xia Ting for himself. And the only way to crack it is to bury his bones properly, and find the Sun God Bird to guard his tomb gate at all times. β
"The Sun God Bird?" Xu Xing followed along, "Could it be the three-legged golden crow?" β
"That's right," Chi Ming looked at him intently, "If you find the three-legged golden crow, you can find the burial place of Hou Yi's bones, but to resurrect him, you need another thing, that is, Qiqi, Qiqi is a divine beast, pure and innocent in heart, how could he be killed by Ermin, the Yellow Emperor was furious when he found out, severely punished Erminus, and ordered several wizards to use immortal medicine to save Qiqi, but who knew that after it lived, it changed its temperament greatly, indifferent, violent, bloodthirsty, and endangered the people everywhere. β
Xu Xing's eyes widened, "Could it be that he is looking for Qiqi just to get the immortal medicine in its body?" β
