Chapter Ninety-Three: The Wish
By the time more and more people knew about Xuanyuan Villa, it had already taken root in the rivers and lakes.
On this day, Xuanyuan Wen took his wife Yun Biluo, nephew Mu Yunche, and his brother Shen Xinghe out to play.
This Shen Xinghe's previous family was destroyed by the enemy, he was hunted down, and almost died under the enemy's knife, and then desperately fled to Xuanyuan Villa, begged Xuanyuan to save his life, and voluntarily signed a blood contract with him, vowing never to betray.
Because Xuanyuan Villa had just been established at the time of employing people, Xuanyuan Wen rescued him and left him in the villa, and later found that he had a good talent in intelligence, so he handed over the intelligence to Shen Xinghe.
The four of them had heard that the Lantern Festival in the Flower City was the most beautiful, so they came here and waited to see the lanterns.
After walking in the city for a day, the four of them found a particularly strange phenomenon, although there were many pedestrians on the street, there was no child, and they felt very strange in their hearts, but they didn't care too much, just as a local custom, children were not allowed to go on the street.
The four of them went to an inn, and the shopkeeper reminded them that there was a powerful cult in the city called Futian, and that it was especially fond of catching children under the age of ten to be sacrificed.
Xuanyuan asked and looked at Shen Xinghe with some puzzlement, "What is a human animal?" ”
"I also received news before I came, human animals are used as living people to sacrifice to the sky or ghosts and gods, this Burial Heaven Sect leader Xu Shen declared that children are used as human animals, sacrificed to the phoenix, and exchanged the life span of children for their own immortality!" Shen Xinghe frowned and said with a look of disgust.
"What a brute! Will anyone believe in such a cult? Yun Biluo scolded when she heard this, she didn't expect that there would be such a mad cult in this world.
"Yes, not only that, but there are a lot of people! It is rumored that Xu Shen, the leader of the cult, was seriously ill and dying, but later had a dream in which a fire-bathing phoenix fell in the courtyard of his house, telling him that as long as his child under the age of ten was baptized by fire, he would not only be exempted from Xu Shen's illness, but also let him stay young forever and immortal! Before Shen Xinghe's words were finished, he was interrupted by Yun Biluo.
"Then Xu Shen really did this?"
Shen Xinghe nodded and continued: "Yes, after Xu Shen woke up, he ordered one of his concubines to be burned alive, and then his illness was miraculously cured!" With this miracle, everyone naturally followed suit, after all, people are afraid of death, who doesn't want to live forever? ”
"What a bunch of brutes......" Hearing this, Yun Biluo hated his teeth, clenched his fists, and looked angry, he couldn't wait to dismantle the cult immediately!
At this time, Xuanyuan, who had not spoken on the side, touched his nose helplessly, he knew that his wife was afraid that he had ideas again......
Sure enough, I saw Yun Biluo with a bitter face, looking at Xuanyuan with a pleading face, and said, "Ah Wen, let's get rid of this cult and save the children here......"
Xuanyuan Wen shook his head helplessly, "Luo'er, do you remember the purpose of our establishment of Xuanyuan Villa?" ”
"Remember, you said that you want to be the most wicked person in the world, and I'd rather let you bear the people of the world than let the people of the world bear you!" Yun Biluo said with a clear face.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan asked even more helplessly, "You still remember, it's all because of you, I haven't done a single evil thing over the years, but I haven't done a lot of chivalrous and righteous things, do you know, my family heirloom jade pendant has been cracked out of the blood contract, and if it continues like this, it will be broken sooner or later!" ”
Faced with Xuanyuan's reproach, Yun Biluo was not annoyed, and pulled his sleeve coquettishly and begged: "Go, go, if you do this good thing, will you do a bad thing next time?" ”
Xuanyuan glared at her angrily, and decisively refused: "Don't go!" ”
This "don't go" made Shen Xinghe on the side change his face, and hurriedly pinned his head to the side, and by the way, he blocked Mu Yunche's eyes with a fan.
At this moment, Yun Biluo on the side also changed his face in an instant, his willow eyebrows were upside down, his eyes were full of murderous anger, and he grabbed one of Xuanyuan's ears and asked angrily, "Can you save it?" ”
Xuanyuan covered his ears in pain, and whispered: "I'll save, I'll save, daughter-in-law, let it go, daughter-in-law has so many people watching, save me some face......
Seeing that Xuanyuan answered his question, Yun Biluo let go of his hand with satisfaction, and then pulled Mu Yunche, who was still young, and went upstairs with a light snort.
Looking at Yun Biluo, who disappeared around the corner of the second floor, Shen Yunchu couldn't hold back any longer, and looked at Xuanyuan and laughed.
Xuanyuan glared at him, and said dissatisfiedly: "You don't need to laugh at me here, when you have a daughter-in-law, you will look good!" ”
Shen Xinghe shook his head and said, "I will definitely find a well-behaved daughter-in-law in the future, preferably the kind of ...... that obeys me."
Xuanyuan asked but smiled meaningfully, "Xinghe, you are still young, you don't understand women......"
Shen Xinghe was inexplicably laughed at by him, and felt that Xuanyuan looked down on him, and said a little stubbornly: "Master is suave, what kind of woman has I never seen, which one is not obedient to me......"
"Are you married?" Facing Xuanyuan's torture that hit the soul directly, Shen Xinghe was speechless in an instant, and sat there like a defeated rooster.
Xuanyuan Wen smiled, and then said with a serious face: "Send twenty shadow guards over to deal with this cult, and before dawn tomorrow, I will make this cult disappear completely!" ”
"What about the old and weak women and children?" Shen Xinghe nodded, and then asked tentatively.
"If you haven't done anything evil, let it go!" Xuanyuan asked for a moment, and then said.
"Understood...... Shen Xinghe got up and walked out of the inn, and disappeared around the corner in a blink of an eye.
That night, the lanterns were very beautiful, and the four of them put Kong Ming lanterns, and then went to the river to put river lanterns.
Xuanyuan looked at his daughter-in-law puzzled, and asked suspiciously: "This Kong Ming lantern can make a wish, and the river lantern can also make a wish, what wish do you have that I can't satisfy you, do you have to make so many wishes?" ”
Yun Biluo glared at Xuanyuan angrily and asked, "I want a child!" ”
Xuanyuan was speechless for a while, a few years ago, because Yun Biluo was still young, although he was reluctant to become a parent, although he had grown up over the years, but the matter of children was not in a hurry......
Xuanyuan asked to accompany Yun Biluo and Mu Yunche to put the river lantern, Mu Yunche put the river lantern, and his fleshy little face was full of piety.
Xuanyuan asked and looked at him curiously, "What wish did we Che'er make?" ”
Who knew that Mu Yunche shook his head and said, "Luoluo's mother said it, you can't say it, and if you say it, it won't work!" ”
Xuanyuan asked, but he was itchy by what he said, and he wanted to know what wish this little guy had made, so he ordered Shen Xinghe to secretly find the river lantern back.
There were not many people in the place where they put the river lanterns, and there were not many river lanterns, and they didn't drift far, so they quickly found them.
Shen Xinghe despised Xuanyuan Wen's bad taste, and even let go of the child's wishes, while curiously poking his head over and looking at the wishes on the lamp with Xuanyuan Wen.
I saw a line of words written crookedly on the lamp: I hope Luoluo's mother will give me a sister as soon as possible!
Xuanyuan asked the expression on his face when he looked at this sentence, and hurriedly urged Shen Xinghe to put the lamp back.
Shen Xinghe laughed and put the lamp back into the river, then came back and asked Xuanyuan: "Big brother, you have to work hard, look at it, our son has broken his heart for you!" Haha......"
Xuanyuan asked and sighed, "Why is my life so bitter!" ”
Although he said so, but in his heart he was beautiful, he really wanted a daughter, this Che'er really understands himself!
It was late at night when the four of them returned to the inn, Yun Biluo took Mu Yunche back to the room to sleep, and Xuanyuan Wen lived in the same room with Shen Yunchu.
As soon as the two entered the house, a shadow guard came to report that the cult had been dealt with, but many people were reluctant to leave, and they didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so they asked them if they wanted to take a look.
The two glanced at each other and felt that the matter was very interesting, so they left ten shadow guards in the inn to protect Yun Biluo and them, and he and Shen Xinghe went to see what was going on.
When they arrived, they saw some women, old people, holding the stone lion in front of the door, or the big tree on the side, crying and shouting that they would not leave, and when they listened carefully, the angry Xuanyuan almost couldn't help but go up and slash them with a palm!
"I'm not leaving, you demons, don't stop me from becoming an immortal!"
"You let me go home, I want to sacrifice my granddaughter to the phoenix god, I want to become an immortal, I want to live forever......"
"The phoenix god is mighty, quickly destroy these evil ghosts and rakshasas, I am willing to sacrifice all three of my children to you, I only ask you to expel them and give me no youth......"
In the face of the cries of these ignorant and foolish people, the iron-blooded shadow guards were also helpless, and after seeing Xuanyuan coming, they all came over, knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "We meet the Holy Lord, Holy Lord, what should we do with these people who have not killed evil?" ”
Xuanyuan asked looking at the foolish people who were holding the big tree and refused to leave, rubbed his temples with a headache, and said, "Give a beating and throw it on the street!" ”
Then he turned around and wanted to leave, but at this moment, a five-year-old boy suddenly rushed over and shouted loudly to Xuanyuan: "Today, you wicked man will destroy my Xu family, and when I grow up, I will definitely cut you with a thousand knives!" ”
Xuanyuan asked playfully looking at the child who had not yet reached his waist, and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you, wait for you to come to me for revenge when you're weaned!" ”
As he spoke, Xuanyuan Wen grabbed the boy's collar with one hand and hung him on the branch next to him, watching the child keep kicking at him on the tree with an angry face, and the swaying appearance was very cute.
Xuanyuan couldn't help but be angry with him again, "How about it, can't you fight, hehe...... I just like that you can't get used to me, and you can't kill me! ”
Shen Xinghe, who was on the side, couldn't look at it anymore, so he pulled him and walked back, saying with a disgusted face as he walked: "The Holy Lord of Xuanyuan Sect is actually angry with a child, it's not a shame!" ”
But Xuanyuan asked and said excitedly: "It's been three years, Xinghe, it's been three years, and I've finally done a bad thing!" ”
Shen Xinghe's face was full of disgust when he heard this, and he said: "If you think bullying children is a bad thing, then congratulations, you have succeeded!" ”
Xuanyuan Wen didn't hear the disgust in Shen Xinghe's words at all, and said happily: "That river lamp is really spiritual......
Shen Xinghe looked at Xuanyuan in disbelief and asked, "Your wish is to do an evil thing?" ”
Xuanyuan asked and said happily: "Yes, yes, you don't know, I have been managed by Luo'er all these years, and I haven't done anything bad!" ”
Speaking of this, Xuanyuan asked and looked at Shen Xinghe with a wicked smile, "What wish did you make?" ”
