Chapter 102: Centennial Curse

"Yes, I am a descendant of the Wu Clan." Umshi did not deny it.

"But at the beginning, didn't the Wu clan do everything they could to stop that qiē? Why are there still descendants of the Wu clan nearly 300 years later? Even though Jian Ning didn't belong to this world, she was still shocked and skeptical about this situation.

If Ruan Feichen hadn't seen it with his own eyes at the time, he wouldn't have written such a letter. And in the past hundred years, it is true that the word "Wu Clan" has never been heard again. Even in the historical records of dynasties, it is rare to see a single word of them.

"In order to defend this continent, the patriarch and elders of the Wu clan opened the secret scroll handed down from ancient times, and according to the secret techniques recorded above, they gathered the strength of all the clansmen to destroy all the weapons of war with the ability to destroy the heavens and the earth, and used the last strength to set a hundred-year spell to stop the war."

"But because of the activation of the ancient secret arts, and the depletion of magical power, all the clansmen quickly aged and died." Wu Shi didn't have much emotion when he talked about these things, as if he was telling a very old story.

"But what everyone doesn't know is that in addition to those who know the power of witchcraft, there are also some human beings in the witch clan. Once the Wu clan is destroyed, then the people who originally coveted the witch clan's magic power and resented the witch clan will naturally find them. ”

"Therefore, the patriarch and elders of the Wu clan sent this group of people and all the secret arts of the Wu clan to a deep mountain long before they made a move, and laid a powerful enchantment, unless someone learns the pure magic power of the Wu clan in the future, otherwise the enchantment will exist forever."

"And among those people was the wife of the patriarch, who was pregnant at the time."

"So you're the one and only bloodline?" At this point, Jian Ning was already able to affirm.

Suddenly, Jian Ning thought of something, and immediately asked vigilantly: "If it is really as you said, what Qiao is using is also magic power." So what does Qiao Qi have to do with the Wu Clan? Could it be that he is also from the Wu Clan? ”

"He is indeed related to the Wu Clan, and he can be regarded as a member of the Wu Clan, but he is not of Wu blood."

If so. Qiao Qi should be the descendants of those ordinary people who survived at the beginning, Jian Ning thought to herself.

"Ordinary people can also practice witchcraft?" Jian asked puzzled. Isn't this power innate?

"There's a part of the witch's secret arts. Ordinary people can also learn. If you can find another thousand years of spiritual grass, then it will be easier to succeed in cultivation. In particular, the puppet technique mainly relies on a person's mind. According to Qiao Qi's current ability, the puppet technique should no longer be under me. ”

"Then now in addition to you, there are still people in the Wu clan who understand witch power?" Jian Ning asked.

"The Wu clan has been passed down from my generation, and it has long been thinly populated. I can only say that I am the only one who can completely solve Qiao Qi now. ”

Jian Ning found that the more she knew now, the more confused she felt. Wu Shi spent so much time telling her about the history of the Wu clan. So what is his purpose in doing this?

"You've said so much, what do you want me to do?"

"Three hundred years ago, the Wu clan used all their strength to restore the current peace, and the world only knew that in a hundred years, the curse of the Wu clan would be broken, and it was very likely that there would be another war smoke. But what the world doesn't know is how many years the hundred years refer to. ”

"Are you here because the hundred-year period is coming to an end?" Jian Ning wanted to laugh a little in her heart, when did she become so unscientific, and let herself encounter such an incredible thing?

Did that so-called curse really protect the peace of this continent for nearly three hundred years?

"From my ancestors to me. Generations have kept a word, waiting for one person. Wu Shi looked at Jian Ning and said, "That's 'why it starts and what ends'." At first, I didn't understand what that really meant. It wasn't until later that I had a vision from heaven and your arrival that I understood it completely. ”

"Do you mean that the catastrophe that was caused by someone from another world will also end with me, a person from another world?" Jian Ning suddenly wanted to laugh, and said to Wu Shi, "You can't help but think too highly of me." You also saw that I was just a woman, powerless. What do you think I can do if the big war comes? Besides, I and Ruan Feichen at the beginning have been separated by decades, how can we be regarded as coming from the same place? ”

"Don't you feel like you've come into this world after that. After becoming a simple condensation, is it already destined for your future path? Wu Shi had a mysterious smile on his face. Said slowly, "The disaster of the year." It's all because the ancestor emperor of Yuanchu is too greedy, and the current Yuanchu emperor Long Zeye has a deep affection for you, do you think you are not enough to influence him? ”

"In vain you are still a man, do you think that in the righteousness of the country and in the face of dominating the world, how much can a woman be worth?" Jian Ning said self-deprecatingly. In the hearts of men, nothing is more important than power, and since ancient times, there have been many people who have abandoned their wives and children for the sake of power and wealth. Ordinary people are still like this, let alone emperors.

In their opinion, as long as they get the world, there is nothing they can't get.

"No, you're wrong, it's because I'm a man and I love a woman deeply, so I know how much influence you have on Long Zeye." Wu Shi said in a firm tone.

"You so-called benevolence and righteousness, the world is your own responsibility, I don't care, and I don't want to care. The only thing I hope for is to have a normal life. Maybe one day I can go back to my world. Jian Ning looked a little weak. She never had any big ambitions, and she never had the ridiculous idea that she could save the world one day.

"No matter what you think in your heart, I hope you can stay by Long Zeye's side." Wu Shi sighed faintly and said, "If you feel that what you are doing now is robbing someone else's life, you feel guilty. So I'll give you a way to alleviate some of your guilt. ”

Jian Ning immediately looked up at her, what Wu Shi said was not wrong at all, although it was not what she thought to occupy this body today, she would still feel guilty. Especially when enjoying the affection and love that should belong to another person

"Jian Baiwei's death was not an illness, but man-made. That's all I say, you can do it yourself. After that, he left through the window.

Jian Ning's mind kept circling Wu Shi's sentence "Jian Baiwei's death is man-made, artificial". Was Jian Baiwei victimized? And who did it do to him? In his memory, Jian Baiwei was easy-going and low-key, and there were no enemies at all.

Why, exactly?

Thinking of this, Jian Ning immediately walked to the table, lit a candle, grinded, and wrote a letter.

She must find out about it, and think it should be a little bit of her strength for the poor girl who died!

After Jian Ning quickly finished writing the letter, she sealed it with red paint and asked Qianlan to bring the eagle that Jiu'er gave her.

When Jian Ning left Yangxin County, she didn't take anything with her, so she took this eagle with her. In order to let it help him pass the message, Jian Ning specially learned the eagle technique from Qianlan, and even fed it personally every day, and now the relationship with the eagle is extremely good.

In order to make it easier to call, Jian Ning also gave the eagle a name, called Eighteen.

Jian Ning rolled the letter paper into a small roll, stuffed it into a bamboo tube tied to the eagle's leg, touched Eighteen's head, and said softly: "Eighteen, obediently bring the letter back to Senior Brother." ”

Eighteen was touched comfortably by Jian Ning, tilted his head, flapped his wings twice, and flew out of the window.

Jian stared at Eighteen who crossed the palace walls and muttered, "I wonder if it can fly out?" ”

Qianlan faintly heard it on the side, and replied with a smile: "Miss, don't worry, Eighteen is professionally trained, even if someone really wants to shoot it down, it knows how to dodge, and it will be fine." ”

"Eun." Jian Ning replied lightly in a nasal voice.

"Miss, it's time for dawn in another hour, and then let's go to bed." Although Qianlan was very curious about why Jian Ning got up in the middle of the night to write a letter to Liu Leshan, she didn't ask.

I've been with Miss for some days, and she knows that if Miss wants to say something, she won't hide it from her. If the young lady didn't want to say it, she couldn't ask.

"I don't sleep, I'm lying in bed anyway, so it's better to forget it." Jian Ning closed the window, walked to the bedside, and said to Qianlan, "Help me change my clothes, I want to make something to eat." ”

Yuan Chu's harem did not have the rule of going to the queen to say good morning in the morning, so although Jian Ning got up early, he had nothing to do. Jian Ning didn't grow up here, the embroidery female red that ordinary women are good at, Jian Ning can't do it at all, and she doesn't dare to be interested.

As for the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the poems and songs are even less leisurely. The pianos here are all guqins, and Jian Ning only knows the piano. Speaking of playing chess, Jian Ning can only barely understand a little, if he plays against others, he must be third-rate.

She also learned calligraphy and painting when she was a child, although she was not good at it, but she could barely get it right, so as not to be ashamed.

As for poetry and songs, backed by China's 5,000-year-old cultural heritage, Jian Ning believes that if she wants to, she will definitely become an unprecedented talented woman. But Jian Ning doesn't have much interest in being a talented girl, the only thing she likes is to study all kinds of delicacies in the small kitchen on that side.

Jian Ning had been nesting in the kitchen since early in the morning, until Qing Zhi came in and said, "Niangniang, Concubine Yuan Niangniang invited the queen and a few Niangniang to enjoy flowers and tea in the imperial garden, and specially sent someone to ask Niangniang if she had time to go over and sit?" ”

"Concubine Yuan?" Jian Ning was a little strange, according to her previous impression of Concubine Yuan, this woman was behind the gate, she had a sense of arrogance, and rarely had close contacts with the women in the harem, why did she take the initiative to invite herself to enjoy the flowers and drink tea at this time, isn't it a Hongmen banquet?

"Qingzhi, do you think you should go or not?" Jian Ning asked casually. How can I say that Qing Zhi is also an old man in this palace, I heard that she entered the palace when she was a little girl, and she used to stay by Long Zeye's side, she believes that in the face of such a problem, Qing Zhi should be more thoughtful than she thought.
