Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Seventy-Seven Scattered Beings

After Xie Xiaoman left, the Huan Mansion was a little flustered.

The leader in charge of tonight's guard was shocked after hearing the report of his subordinates. Although he had never seen the ladies of the Huan Mansion, he didn't believe that there would be people in the mansion swaggering out of the gate at night.

No matter how I thought about it, I didn't know the bottom of my heart, and I was worried about Huan Wen's rewards and punishments, so I gritted my teeth and took the blame.

Huan Wen really didn't sleep, put on a robe sleeve casually, and sat in the study a little lazily.

In front of the window next to him stood the staff member named Xue Zicheng, who was a figure that Huan Wen's subordinates were a little afraid of. In the face of such a character who can communicate with ghosts and gods, ordinary people are respectful and awe-struck, and they stay away.

stepped forward to greet General Huan, and bowed deeply to Xue Zicheng, who really didn't seem to hear it.

"General, let people slip away from the mansion today, all of them are caused by the laxity of my royal majesty, and I am willing to accept the punishment!" Tell the story head-on, and come to the ground to confess the guilt.

Huan Wen was a little absent-minded, and waved his hand casually: "Punish two months of military salary, you step back first."

The people who were punished were a little surprised, and did not understand how the great general could be merciful today. I was both happy and puzzled, but I just answered and retreated according to the military order.

Where did Huan Wen care about such a trivial matter, he emptied the idle people in the house, and gave Xue Zicheng a look.

"I have set up an enchantment, and what I say here cannot be heard by outsiders." Xue Zicheng bowed slightly.

Huan Wen nodded thoughtfully, and there was a slight frowning line between his eyebrows: "According to what you said, then Xie Xiaoman shouldn't live long?"

"That's right." Xue Zicheng lightly clasped the window lattice with the index finger of his right hand, and said lightly, "Even I didn't expect that after many years, I would still be able to meet a soul possessed by Rouran." ”

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"Rouran is the great god of the northern Kunlun lineage, it is said that Rouran has boundless mana, a anger will cause cattle and sheep to die of plague, and a happy grassland is rich in water and grass, and it is the great god who is in charge of the life and death of all living beings on the grassland."

"Speaking of which, that Rouran is also an immortal cultivator?"

Xue Zicheng glanced at Huan Wen and asked rhetorically: "Even if the general has thousands of soldiers and armor in his hands, does he dare to say that he is the emperor?"

If this kind of thing comes out of other people's mouths, even if it is Huan Wen, I am afraid that he will be punished for the crime of disrespect. However, for an immortal cultivator like Xue Zicheng, who is beyond the world, the word emperor is just a wisp of name among the mundane, and it is not much different from the pawn of the peddler.

After understanding the meaning of Xue Zicheng's words, Huan Wen's face changed, and even his voice tightened slightly: "You mean, that Rouran is the person who really broke through the barrier between humans and immortals and ranks in the immortal class?"

Xue Zicheng said lightly: "Prince Qiao soared on a crane, Peng Zu took three hundred years old as the spring and autumn, and there was a precedent for such a thing as becoming an immortal. As for how Rouran became an immortal and when she became an immortal, the Central Plains did not have too deep understanding. After all, they are far apart, and they have never had anything to do with each other. But his cultivation is extremely powerful, which is something that we can all perceive in the hinterland of the Central Plains. ”

Huan Wen looked at the darkness outside the window and was speechless for a moment.

In this dark night, thousands of miles away, there is such a powerful place. But these ordinary people suddenly don't know that this feeling of ignorance and powerlessness makes this strong man in the world a little unfamiliar.

"Then how do you know about Xie Xiaoman?"

"It's just speculation, but it's true. In the early years, I knew a cultivator from the Western Regions and heard some things about Rouran. According to legend, Rouran has experienced life and death for hundreds of years, although it is immortal, but it also has to experience the realm of life and death, and the most dangerous part is the catastrophe. The Heavenly Tribulation is stimulated by the induction of aura, and heaven and earth are born naturally. The stronger the aura in a cultivator's body, the more deadly the calamity will be. In order to avoid this thing, the Rouran God would divide the soul into seventy-seven pieces before the hundred-year period, scatter them among all beings, and then recover them after the tribulation. ”

"You mean, the power in Xie Xiaoman's body is a fragment of Rouran's divine power?" At first glance, when I heard all the things in the fairy world, I was as strong as Huan Wen, and I couldn't help but feel a dry mouth.

"That's right."

"That Rouran God will definitely take back the divine power, and ...... when the time comes"

"When the time comes, a host like Xie Xiaoman will lose the support of the aura of the Rouran God, and the physical body will also be destroyed."

"This kind of thing...... How long will she live? In other words, when will the Rouran God withdraw his power?"

Xue Zicheng smiled slightly: "This is like lent money, who knows when the creditor will come to collect the debt?"

Huan Wen was speechless.

"But for the general's career, this is actually a good thing. That Xie Xiaoman is not an ordinary woman, and her attitude towards the general is the same, rather than staying by her side and not knowing what she will do in the future, it is better to marry her quickly, and after using it, let her live or die, and save you and me. ”

Huan Wen fell silent.

The candlelight in the room flickered, and in the isolated barrier, everything seemed a little illusory.

Huan Wen looked at Xue Zicheng's hand touching the window lattice, looking at the blurred sand-like moonlight on his fingers, his heart was surging, but it finally calmed down.

"You're right." Huan Wen returned to his usual iron-blooded mentality, and smiled coldly, "Compared with the Northern Expedition, what is a mere human life." ”

……

……

"Girl, open the door!"

Before coming to the Rejuvenation Hall, Xie Xiaoman knocked on the door, accidentally caught a glimpse of someone's snot on his right cuff, and rubbed it against the door of the Rejuvenation Hall in disgust.

"You're here again? Do you want to buy medicine?" The little Lori of the Rejuvenation Hall poked her head out of the room and looked at Xie Xiaoman's eyes shining, as if she saw a big bowl of braised pork walking.

"Yes and no." Xie Xiaoman pretended to coax the little girl profoundly, and beckoned to her, "Shall I play a game with you?" ”

"What game?" Little Lori said yes, but her face drooped, obviously not curious about this childish behavior. Speaking of which, food is the most important thing.

Seeing the excitement of Little Lori, Xie Xiaoman grinned: "If you win, you will have something to eat."

"Really!" Little Lori's excited eyes full of meat buns jumped down from the eaves.

"Of course, when did my sister lie to you. However, if you want to have something delicious, you have to win this game. ”

"Say it quickly! Say it quickly! How the hell are you going to play!" Little Lori has a bun face, pink and tender, with baby fat on her cheeks. When I'm in a hurry, my eyes are shining, and the pigtails on my head are also swaying, which is definitely a must-have for home travel.

"Let me ask you, since your family runs a pharmacy, do you know how to heal?"

Little Lori pouted: "Medical skills are the most annoying, my father always let me learn, but I don't like it." The medicine is bitter and not delicious at all. ”

"That's ......" Xie Xiaoman was a little disappointed.

"But I'll still be a little bit......" Little Lori's eyes rolled on Xie Xiaoman's body, and she suddenly clapped her hands, "Oh! I see! You deliberately ate poison and came here to play games with me, right? It's fun! It's fun! Let me see what kind of poison you have, and if I get rid of it, you'll have to give me something to eat!"
