Chapter 111: The Law of Resurrection
The days returned to the same calm as before, and in the first year after taking the elixir, Li Chengan seemed to have really returned to the same state as before, but in the second year, he suddenly fell into a coma again, although he woke up soon after.
In the following days, Jun and the eldest princess often went out and didn't know what to do, and Li Chengan also found that there were always some people who looked evil and met her, his body was not as good as a year after year, and it was visibly decaying with the naked eye, and finally he couldn't even get out of bed.
Seeing that the horse's body was getting worse day by day, the eldest princess became more and more uneasy, and even couldn't control her temper with her subordinates many times. Li Chengan could only comfort her with kind words, and was very sad to see her mental state becoming more and more unstable.
After finding a time, Jun and the eldest princess went to Hongfeng Temple again to find Lingyue and told him about Li Cheng'an's situation.
Ling Yue was not surprised, "Your Highness, the horse is originally a dying person, and that elixir can drag him for five years is already the limit." ”
Where could the eldest princess of Jun and the eldest princess accept his words, grabbed Lingyue's robe and begged, "Do you still have that kind of elixir?" Quickly find out all to the palace, how much money it costs, as long as you can save the horse and pay any price! ”
Ling Yue looked at her indifferently, "Your Highness, there is really no way to do it in the lower parts, that kind of elixir is useless to him, please mourn." ”
After saying that, he squatted down and patted her stiff shoulder gently, and Jun and the eldest princess cried bitterly, "Why... Why did this world do this to this palace, what did I do wrong to take him away from me! ”
The noble woman finally collapsed her indifferent and unfazed appearance, her gorgeous robe mixed with dirt scattered on the ground, her trembling shoulders leaning on Lingyue's arm could not stop, and her face looked like a remnant flower wet by the rain.
The bleak autumn wind sent away the abundance of living beings, and the red maple was as red as if it had sucked blood, as if it was about to burn the entire Taoist temple, and Jun and the eldest princess walked weakly towards the two red maples that had grown tall.
It's also strange to say that he was so short at the beginning, why did he suddenly grow much taller than the surrounding trees in recent years. She asked the attendant to get a prayer card and a pen, and looked at the love that Manshu herself and Li Chengan had written, and her heart was so painful that she couldn't stand it anymore as if it had been torn apart.
She frowned and wrote carefully on it.
When he was done, he hung it on a tree and left without saying a word. Lingyue walked to the prayer card that had just been hung up and flipped it over, but the beautiful handwriting on it was full of unyielding and angry.
"Hate."
He opened his lips slightly, reading the words on them.
It was written by Jun and the eldest princess, and it was the only one who really revealed what she was thinking for so many years. In order to reassure him, the eldest princess has written many prayer cards for the concubine here, shaping herself into a little woman soaked in a love honeypot.
It's just that these can't make Emperor Jing dispel his doubts, or rather, no matter what she does, as long as Jun and the eldest princess live for a day, Emperor Jing's vigilance against her will always exist.
She wrote that word in order to provoke Emperor Jing, and the time for the two to settle down had come.
It didn't take long for the white lanterns to hang up in the princess's mansion, and the entire mansion was shrouded in a suppressed sadness, and the people all wore linen filial piety clothes and knelt in the mourning hall, the eldest princess was pale, her eyes were red and a little swollen, and she knelt beside the black coffin in the middle, and muttered while burning the paper, "Cheng'an, don't worry, I will avenge you." Those who have made you suffer will be torn to pieces one by one. ”
Perhaps Emperor Jing didn't expect that the sister who had always been attached to him and always pressed her head would really be bound by a sick and weak man, and she was willing to give up all her rights for him to stay for the rest of her life.
It is impossible for Emperor Jing to do this, and naturally he will not understand Jun He's intentions for Li Chengan. That's his royal sister, the two grew up together since childhood, and it can be said that they know each other best, how can they let go of their power for love?
Li Cheng'an's death had cut the last rope that bound Jun and the eldest princess, and no one could stop her.
At this moment, a familiar person approached the princess's mansion, looking at the once elegant mansion and now a depression, Lingyue walked into the mourning hall and bowed to Li Cheng'an.
"Your Highness." He shouted. It's just that the eldest princess's eyes were empty, she seriously burned the dark paper in her hand and ignored him.
Not caring about her attitude, Lingyue continued, "That day, His Highness asked if there was a way to save the horse, and he said no. Now is the time, does Your Highness want to hear about it? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jun and the eldest princess picked up the brazier and threw it at him, with a "clang", the carbon ash with the sparks instantly ignited Lingyue's robe, he patted left and right to extinguish those sparks, "Why did Your Highness make such a big fire?" ”
"He's all dead, are you here to laugh at this palace when you say this!"
Ling Yue shook his head, "No, Your Highness misunderstood, but this method can only be used on people who have died, so I didn't inform Your Highness that day." ”
He stepped forward and approached Jun He, "What His Highness said that day, is it still counted?" ”
Jun and the eldest princess were stunned for a moment, recalling that she said at that time that she was willing to give everything to save Li Chengan.
She nodded and said, "If it's true as you say, count it." ”
****
There was a faint smell of medicine and the aroma of sandalwood in the room, and under the dim candlelight, Xin Zhi leaned on the side of the bed and took the Bai Zeyu pendant handed over by Li Cheng'an, and asked hesitantly, "It's decided?" ”
Li Chengan lowered his eyes and couldn't see the dark color inside, but he just looked at it deeply, turned his head and said, "Hmm." ”
An hour ago.
Since beating Xin Zhi and telling him that he is a demon corpse, Li Chengan quickly went from disbelief to accepting this reality, and he didn't have much emotion about the appearance of people and ghosts now, Xin Zhi was very envious, thanks to the eldest princess taking good care of him and not receiving disgusting eyes from the world.
Thinking that when he just crawled out of the soil, he suffered the fear and disgust of the people around him, and he was very envious when he saw Li Chengan's current life. However, this envy is only fleeting, if he hadn't experienced those at the beginning, how could he have met Shen Fei?
There was silence for a while, and only after a while did Li Chengan ask, "Don't you want to know what happened before you died?" ”
Perhaps it was the sympathy for the two of them who were both demon corpses, Li Chengan asked her puzzled.
Xin Zhi shook her head, "Curious, but I can't find it." ”
In the past, there would be some fragmentary memories when I held Shen Fei, but then I never appeared again.
Before, Xin Zhi told Li Chengan that he was also a demon corpse, and explained some habits about demon corpses. Li Chengan thought thoughtfully, "You said that it has no memory of life, and second, it has no enlightenment...... So why aren't we like that? ”
Xin Zhi said, "There are broken souls on the body. ”
This is what Wuxiangjun told her, the broken soul, as the name suggests, is a torn soul. In the process of doing so, the caster caused the soul of the demon corpse to tear apart for other reasons, and only took part of it.
There is a soul left on the body, so that the demon corpse has the ability to think after training.
"Then why is my soul being torn apart?"
Xin Zhi shook her head, she didn't know either. However, according to my own speculation, I am afraid that it has a lot to do with the little white light on her body, as for Li Chengan, then you have to ask the eldest princess.
Li Chengan wiped the clear beast god Bai Zeyu's pendant, and the warm touch lingered on his fingertips, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is afraid that I will be bored in the mansion, so I have moved all my books before." I once saw a talk about recovering the memory of the demon corpse in "Strange Books", Ah Zhi, you can help me. ”
That "Strange Books and Strange Chronicles" was written by an unknown loose cultivator, and it included strange anecdotes about fairies, demons, demons, and people, which were just hearsay and had no real basis.
The cultivator wrote that the souls of demon corpses are usually packed in a container, because they were human beings in their lifetime, so these souls have not been cultivated and are very fragile, and once the soul is damaged, then the demon corpse will disappear. There are also people who try to release their souls before their lives and reintegrate them into the demon corpse, but they can't stand the changes in their bodies and can't fuse them, and finally they are wiped out, and they can't even enter reincarnation.
However, this casual cultivator also deduced that although it would be wiped out, it might be able to re-infuse his soul into his body. He also sympathized when he wrote the final conclusion, "If you are doomed, it is better to find your whole self." ”
Refining demon corpses is regarded as a forbidden art, and the reason for this is that it is very dehumanizing. Forcibly depriving a mortal of his soul after death and refining it into a low-level monster without intelligence, even if he regains his soul, he will not be reincarnated.
Besides, the demon corpse needs a lot of spiritual power to maintain, it would be better if the refiner was a great power, but a mortal like the eldest princess who has no spiritual power needs to use human essence blood to feed, Li Chengan's soul is unstable, which is why she can't wait to kill so many people.
"Your Highness is the best person in this world, she still has a long life, she shouldn't have caused so many sins because of me," he put Bai Zeyu in his heart, his voice trembled a little, "She is so noble, she should live a better life, right......."
He looked at Xin Zhi and smiled wryly, "She often tells me how we fell in love before. But I can't remember Xin Zhi, I can't empathize with everything she said. Although I knew that it was me, I couldn't help but be jealous when I thought that this person had such a wonderful highness. I can't give her the same love, it's not fair to Your Highness, and I want to know our past...... Help me, Xin Zhi, help me and Your Highness, don't let her go wrong again. ”
He handed the jade pendant in his hand to Xin Zhi, "You should also feel it, this contains my soul...... Now it's time to get it back into my body. ”
Xin Zhi glanced at the jade pendant in her hand and said stunned, "You will disappear." ”
Li Chengan shook his head, "This is the last thing I can do for her, Xin Zhi, I love Your Highness, and I also hope that I can die a dignified death." ”
As early as when Qiao Niang handed this jade pendant to herself, she felt that something was surging inside, and now it seems that it should be Li Chengan's soul. She got up, summoned her spiritual power, and the hot spell burst from the dantian to her arms, palms, and finally to her fingers.
With a wave of his hand, a fiery red light swept through the dimly lit room, and the candle flame flickered wildly. I saw that the powerful firelight "boomed" towards the jade pendant.
Suddenly, at the moment when the firelight was about to touch the jade pendant, the jade pendant lit up with a dazzling light.
That light contained a more intense spiritual power, and it grew bigger and bigger in an arc, and finally directly swallowed the fire that Xin Zhi beat out!
"It's... What's going on? Li Chengan looked at the situation in front of him in surprise and wondered.
Xin Zhi stepped forward and picked up the jade pendant and observed it carefully for a moment, "It's a spell." "Someone cast a spell on the jade pendant to protect it.
It was surprising, but not unexpected. After all, the eldest princess values Li Chengan very much, and she will not let others have the slightest chance to hurt him, and the demon corpse can be refined, let alone the spell that protects the Horcrux.
