Chapter 146 Moshan Clan's Cypress

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ From now on, you will go deeper into sleep. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoDon't worry, it's all just a nightmare for you, you have to listen to my voice and go forward, I'll turn back when I tell you to turn back......"

In the dimly lit room, Gao Tao leaned on the head of the bed, listening to my words and entering hypnosis.

"One, two, three. Well, you're in a dream now...... In the dream, go back five years and tell me, who are you? ā€

Gao Tao's body didn't react much, he moved his lips, and slowly heard a voice. "Court, Firm ......"

Ting Jian, this is his former name, he has indeed gone back. "Okay, Tingjian, now go back to the main hall of the court, your father, the great leader of the court, the emperor, Zhuan. You are standing on the main hall of the Tsui-ting, and your father is listening to the reports of the other chiefs, who say that the Moyama clan's Kihiki rebelled and disturbed the order of Kyushu, and did not take the Tsuki-ting in their eyes...... Now, you step forward. Your father sent you to arrest the Cypress...... Tell me, what happened next? ā€ā€¦ā€¦

On the main hall five years ago, the clan borders around the Moshan clan, which had been violated by the deed, finally couldn't bear to ask for help from the court. A number of tribal leaders in Kyushu gathered in the court to report the evidence of the deed to the emperor. The Moshan clan violated the borders of other clans many times, and was repeatedly warned by the court, but instead of repenting, Qi Hui intensified it, and even made provocative remarks against the court...... After the Moshan clan refused to change his teachings, the emperor could only send his youngest son to the Moshan clan to bring the juniper back.

At that time, Gaotao was still called Tingjian. Young and vigorous, he set off with people.

From the court all the way to the Moshan clan, the road is far away, and the journey is nearly half a month, but when he first enters the Moshan clan, the city of the Moshan clan is not as flying and domineering as he thought at the beginning. All he saw was a calm and low-key clan town, close to the coast, where the people lived by fishing and eating seafood...... Because of the abundance of currency shells that circulate in Kyushu, the people here live a good life. They had to pay most of their shells to the court each year, and slaves could be seen working in the waters under the control of the Moshan clan.

All this is different from what Ting Jian originally thought.

They went straight to the courtyard of the Kihi, but the news they got was that the Kihino had gone out for some reason and had not yet returned. The people in the palace left them to stay in the courtyard for one night, but many things happened in vain one night. Ting Jian and the others were trapped in the courtyard of the Qijuni, and after a night of tossing, they rushed out with all their strength, and there was no one in the courtyard this night, and the people who escaped were already afraid of the Qihui. On the second day of his visit, Ting Jian accidentally learned that the cypress passed through the mountains and forests, so he sent people to round it up, but he fell into the trap of the juniper, and the people who went before him fell into the evil spirit in the mountains and forests and lost their minds...... Ting Jian was unconscious, but he was rescued by Qi Hui, and when he woke up, he was by Qi Hui's side.

Qi Hui left him to recuperate in the courtyard, but as a result, Tingjian had nightmares and palpitations. But fortunately, Ting Jian finally led someone to arrest Qi Hui and embarked on the road back to Yiting. It's just that on the way, I suddenly encountered a mob......

……

Gao Tao began to struggle, struggled, he let out a cry of pain, and refused to remember it any more.

His face was ugly, bloodless, and his forehead was bruised...... There's really no way to go on. "Alright, alright, now, listen to my voice, start walking back, turn around, you're back......"

Gao Tao opened his eyes suddenly, and his lips were already bitten and bleeding.

Mingyun was frightened and rushed forward to take care of Gaotao and lay down.

"How?" Xiao Jue asked with low eyebrows.

"Judging from his recollections, his experiences in the Moshan clan may indeed have an impact, but I think that although those things had an impact on him, they were not enough to make his heart sick." When Gao Tao repeated his dream, I had the feeling that he was really emotional when he went through those things, and that anyone who was unprepared to go through such things was enough to leave fear. But that's just excitement. "Let's go out and talk. Mingyun, you take good care of Lord Gaotao to rest first. ā€

I pushed Xiao Jue's wheelchair and walked out.

"Huo Xi, what do you want to say?" Xiao Jue's hand has been placed on his lap, as elegant as before.

"I think that Gaotao's heart disease is not just because of what he said after being hypnotized, but what really makes him unable to say even if he is hypnotized may be the source of his heart disease." This is the conclusion I came to after observing Gaotao's reaction.

"You mean......" Xiao Jue was faintly uneasy.

"Nope." I denied the speculation he might have blurted out, "Xiao Jue, in the next life, everything can be explained by science. Including the magic that changes the color of the current smell, this is just a prediction of the changes in the solar terms according to the instinct of people within the scope of knowledge. As you said, the Moshan clan is near the sea, and it can be confirmed from Gaotao's memories that they made a living by going out to sea to fish based on their life experience. People who live near the sea are often more strict about the weather than those who live inland, and for them, it is not only to make a living, but also to predict whether there will be a disaster in the next time according to the wind, the ebb and flow of the tide, such as a tsunami typhoon and so on. They must know more about this knowledge than those of us who live inland, and using this knowledge they will predict when the wind will rise and when the rain will fall, and use it in other areas to make it seem like they can call the wind and the rain. ā€

Including the grass boat borrowed arrows that were widely circulated in later generations, Zhuge Liang was also deified.

Maybe people just need a worship, a faith.

Xiao Jue still didn't speak.

"I think Gaotao may have been framed at that time." The past that he tried to hide in his hypnosis began with the mob blocking the way, and what happened after that, he himself refused to recall. "However, do you think the Moshan clan's Qi Hinoki is really dead?"

Xiao Jue lifted his body slightly, "You are, what do you mean?" ā€

"Nope." I can't tell what I mean. "It's just that I was wondering who kidnapped the deed juniper and hanged himself in front of the Gaotao Mansion. There is no surprise that this move is aimed at Lord Gaotao, but what is puzzling is that why go around in a circle, kill Qi Hui and then hang at the door of Lord Gaotao? I did this just to warn or ......"

What was the intention of the murderer at that time?

"Five years ago, when the Deed Hinoper was hung in front of Tingjian's door, I went to inspect it. He was indeed hung there after his death, and the body had two strangulation marks on his neck, first strangled and then hung from a tree. There was no trace of the deceased's disguised appearance, and Ting Jian also confirmed that day that the deceased was indeed the deed juniper he had seen in the Moshan clan. Xiao Jue's statement confirmed Qi Hui's death.

"But it's not disguised, is the deed juniper really the deed juniper?" I wondered, "I really can't figure out what the purpose of the person who killed the deed juniper is." Generally speaking, killing a person and then hanging him up, in addition to the murderer himself wanting to make people appreciate his masterpiece and satisfy his own pompous desires, there is also revenge. If the person who killed the Kihiki was targeting the Kihiki itself, then the murderer could have hung the body of the Kihiki in a more conspicuous place, wouldn't they? If the real murderer is only a person who has an enmity with the Qi Hui, then this murderer may be a tribal leader who has been invaded by the Qi Hui across the border, or it may be an ordinary person who has lost his family because of the invasion of the Qi Hui, or even someone who has been provoked and offended by the Qi Hui, based on the character of the Qi Hui alone, it is certain that he has made a lot of enemies, and there are not a few people who want to kill him. But since you killed him, why did you target Lord Gaotao? Before the death of the Qi Hui, Lord Gao Tao was probably the last to have a conflict with the Qi Hui, and was still escorting the Qi Hui back to the court, but the Qi Hui was robbed, and Lord Gao Tao himself was injured as a result. So is this conflict related to the murderer's later hoisting of the juniper in front of Lord Gaotao's door? My gut feeling is that it all has to do with it. So I think the murderer is not targeting this person, but from the beginning, it was Lord Gaotao. ā€

"So, you think Kihiki isn't dead?" Xiao Jue expressed my suspicions. "If Qi Hui hadn't died, then from Ting Jian to the Moshan Clan, or even earlier, Qi Hui provoked the surrounding tribes and clans, intending to lead the court to blame, it was all Qi Hui's conspiracy? But Huo Xi, have you ever thought that if Qi Hui didn't die, then who was the person who died in front of Tingjian's door? Where did the real Kinoki go? ā€

It's true that I haven't thought this through yet. "So, around Kihiko's corpse, is there that symbol too?"

Xiao Jue fell into deep thought, and after thinking about it carefully, he nodded slowly, "Yes." ā€

"Isn't the symbol of five years ago the same as the symbol in Hongling Prison? These are the same as the symbols on Hongling's cloth...... "I always believe that the existence of this symbol is not just the same as the mark left by the murderer, it must have the meaning that it must exist."

Just like in Hongling's case, the presence of symbols has a hypnotic effect, and even if the real culprit is not present, Hongling's suicide can be controlled.

Control Hongling, commit suicide?! Control...... Yes, hypnosis, control......

"It's really the same, if you want to confirm it, you can go to Master Cangjie, he should still have a record there." Xiao Jue said, suddenly listened to the side, and seemed to deliberately whisper a reminder, "Someone is coming." ā€

As soon as I looked up, April was nervously running this way.

"My lord, Miss Huo Xi." April stood in front of us, still a little breathing, but it was much more elegant.

"April, what's wrong?" Xiao Jue asked.

April tilted her head to the side, and looked at me unconsciously...... After a while, I heard him stammer, "Emperor, Emperor Jun just received news from the Fu Ying clan, saying that Lord Sui Que has passed away......

Sui Que, dead?! (To be continued.) )
