Chapter 573: Talisman

On the other side, Ken Rin Sakura and the others also looked at the soldier in disbelief, and a complicated look appeared in their eyes.

"Looks like they've been preparing for today for a long time." Jian Qiuxi looked at Jian Rin Sakura with concern, "Your Majesty, it is extremely unsafe here, I suggest you go back to Mengluo City......"

"I believe in you." Kenrin Sakura shook her head and cut off her words, "It's safest to be by your side, and I need it here, so I can't leave yet." She calmly held the other party's hand, signaled her to calm down, and continued to listen to Lu Jie's words.

"And how did you get out of danger at that time?" Emiya continued to ask.

"I was very flustered and extremely scared, in case I couldn't bring the news back, Dream Sword Kingdom didn't know how much loss I would suffer, and when the footsteps around me were getting closer and closer, I finally found my Qiankun Mirror and hurriedly sent the news.

My mind was blank, and I had only one instinct -

Run. β€œ

Lu Jie hugged his head in pain, "Yes, I ran away, I didn't die there with them."

I saw the Lijian Army behind me, like a black cloud, and at the same time, I also saw the other brothers, one by one, like wooden people, being cut down by the other party one after another. I...... I'm really useless......"

He held his head in frustration and pain, buried his head in the crook of his arm, and curled up in his chair.

Everything last night was a lingering shadow for him.

"No, you're doing a good job."

Kenrin Sakura walked up to him, covered his hand over the palm of his head, and gently took him into his arms.

"Your Majesty......" he shuddered all over.

"Thanks to you, we were able to get such important news." She smiled slightly, "You're brave and smart enough to know what to do when and when." We'll take care of the rest, you have a good rest, andβ€”

Let's win it back together! β€œ

After his mood had stabilized a little, Emiya continued his inquiry.

"So, do you specifically recall that when this happened, was there anything different about you and the others?" Emiya cuts to the heart of this conversation, "For example, what strange things did you eat before, or didn't eat anything?" β€œ

Everyone's eyes focused on the soldier's face.

"You're saying someone poisoned our food?" He looked up blankly.

"Nope." Wei Gong smiled, "It's hard for me to imagine that anyone can really do this, even if there is a traitor among you, it will not bury yourself in it, didn't you say, you are the only one who comes back alive." ”

His gaze stayed on the other party's face, "If there really is, then it can only be you." ”

"Nope. Not me! The other party angrily smashed the cup next to him to the ground, and then reached out in righteous indignation and grabbed Wei Gong's collar violently, "It won't be my brothers, I believe in them, more than my life!" ”

"Okay, okay." Emiya nervously held his hand and looked at him sincerely, "I believe that. β€œ

With Emiya's slapping, the other party gradually let go of his hand, and then regained his composure.

"So, what we really want to know is, why are you not affected, you know, like you said, everyone else is in a state of enchantment, or demon possession, why are you the only one who is okay?"

Lu Jie was stunned for a moment and understood Wei Gong's intentions.

If he really wants to win the next victory, then the key lies in himself, why is he not affected and can escape safely from inside?

"I remember...... We had dinner together, and I was told to change guards halfway through, and I packed a little peanuts when I left. When he said this, his eyes lit up, "Could it be peanuts?" I'm not quite sure if anyone else has eaten. ”

Emiya patted him on the shoulder with one hand, then glanced at Kenrin Sakura.

The clerk beside her had recorded everything Lu Jie had just said.

"Is there anything else that only you have done and no one else has done?" Emiya thought for a moment, "Or maybe it's something unique to you that others don't have, such as rings, necklaces, and amulets...... Maybe it helped you get away with it. ”

"Ah, I remember." After Wei Gong's reminder, Lu Jie's face showed an expression of sudden realization, he quickly stood up, took off a wooden talisman necklace from his neck, and then handed it to Wei Gong.

"This is what the old man of the family gave me before I went to the border, saying that it can keep me safe." When he said this, with tears in his eyes, he smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect to really survive......"

Wei Gong took it over, held it in his hand, and studied it carefully.

It is a sword-shaped amulet carved from ordinary poplar trees, and although the carving is clumsy, it contains a lot of love and care.

He wasn't sure if it really worked.

……

As Lu Jie was sent for treatment, after leaving this room, the whole room seemed silent.

Wei Gong and Liu Dun lowered their heads to each other, each thinking, and the expression on their faces looked a little anxious.

"The conclusion?" Jian Qiuxi looked at Wei Gong and Liu Dun angrily, "Speak, you are swordsmiths, you should know better than us." ”

Liu Dun's body trembled slightly.

"I'm not sure, but it sounds like a psychic move." Wei Gong raised his head and looked at Master Liu Dun, "Have you ever seen a similar sword?" ”

"If it's a small area, there is." Master Liu Dun was silent for a moment, "At last year's Sword Sacrifice Ceremony, the right hand of the God of the Heavenly Sword Kingdom was displayed, and at this year's Sword Sacrifice Ceremony, Master Lu Mingling of the Jing Sword Kingdom also displayed a ......."

"Ah......" Jian Rin Sakura covered her mouth in surprise, "I remember that last year's Shadowless Sword Warrior could make the entire Sword Sacrifice Ceremony fall into a state of mental uncontrol for three seconds, which sounded particularly similar to the situation Lu Jie described just now...... Then Master Lu Mingling's Flower of Death, which seems to have a similar function, makes people fall asleep and then die in a dream......"

"Quite possibly." Wei Gong nodded, "It's just that the opponent we encountered this time is even more powerful than the previous Shadowless Sword, both in terms of range and distance, far surpassing the Shadowless Sword, and what's even more terrifying is that we are not sure what caused it." ”

He glanced around the crowd, shook off the amulet in his hand, and carried it in the air.

"This is carved out of poplar wood, and we will first match all the soldiers with one in poplar according to the shape of this amulet."

Jian Qiuxi took it and cautiously handed it to the guards beside him.

"According to what he said, before sunset today, make 30,000 sticks, the sooner the better."

"Yes! Great General. ”

The man took the command and walked out.

"Are you sure this method works?" She raised her two big eyes and stared at the palace deadly, "You know, this is a major event related to the future fate of more than millions of people in two countries. ”
