Chapter 080: Repair the Mutated Bloodline
"Gu Master, the way you said to meet her in person is probably the only way at present. Otherwise, if such a stalemate continues, our trip to the border will be completely delayed. The reason why the Kirin Snake Maiden used a strange arrow to assassinate you before was because she didn't know that you were the Kirin Saintess. That's why they use the same method as an ordinary person to assassinate. If she knew that you were the Qilin Holy Maiden, she would never have made a move on you. So there's no danger in seeing her. However, this is only said in the legend of the Qilin Saint Priest's Dungeon, and I can't guarantee that the Qilin Snake Girl will not hurt you. After all, the legend fails to mention the specific reason why the Kirin Snake Girl won't hurt you. Exceptions cannot be ruled out. So it's better for me to go with you, it's safer. In case an unforeseen situation does arise, with me here, I may be able to help you block her for a while and buy you time to escape. As for whether she will let us enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons just because you are a Qilin Holy Maiden, I don't know in my heart. And the reason why she prevented us from entering the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, I didn't understand. Maybe you can only know why if you ask her in person. ”
Scorpion Armor was silent for a while before raising his head to look at Ah Xiyan and replied helplessly.
"Good! Then I get the idea! However, there is one thing I still don't understand, that is, how did she know that we were going to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons? Even if it is a necessary way to go from the Imperial City to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, the problem is that it is still far from the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, and we may also pass by this road? She won't stay here all the year round, and whoever passes by doesn't ask who she kills indiscriminately, right? If this is the case, there are often murders here, and the government would have been alarmed a long time ago, and troops would have been sent to encircle and suppress it. I won't let her kill innocents here. Even if ordinary officers and soldiers can't deal with the unicorn snake girl, then this place has been so dangerous for a long time, and when my father chose the route before, he would never let us take this road and risk our lives. ”
Ah Xiyan nodded thoughtfully and replied.
He also raised questions about the previous assassination of the Kirin Snake Girl.
"Valley Lord, I also thought about this just now, I think the Qilin Snake Girl has always been extremely mysterious and low-key, and she will not stay in one place all year round to assassinate ordinary people casually. Otherwise, it would have alarmed the world long ago, and the rumors would have been boiling. Moreover, people passing by here may not necessarily go to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, and they have no reason to be bored enough to kill innocents indiscriminately. Their lives are not long because of blood problems, and they will not waste time doing things that do not help them prolong their lives. And according to the legend in the Qilin Saint's Underground Palace, the Qilin Snake Girl usually kills the main characters only if she stops others from advancing. Then he continued to wait five miles ahead. As long as others don't move on. She'll let everyone else go. But if it's a pure assassination of someone, it will kill everyone, including the target, indiscriminately. So it's clear that the other party's purpose this time is to stop us from moving forward. Otherwise, we would all be dead just now. This means that the Kirin Snake Girl should have only targeted us as a group, and had already known in advance that we were going to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons. ”
Scorpion's tone was much more affirmative than the previous confusion.
"Then can I understand that the Qilin Snake Girl has an internal response in the palace, so I knew for the first time that we were going to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons? Otherwise, how could they just stay here to stop us? However, very few people know about this matter, and it was only decided on an ad hoc basis yesterday afternoon. This unicorn snake girl's internal response is too powerful, right? can quickly spread such top-secret news outside the palace, then this person is not only very deeply hidden, but also his identity should be very noble. ”
Ah Xiyan felt very confused and analyzed.
"Valley Lord, based on the legends I've seen about the Kirin Snake Girl, I think I can get the Kirin Snake Girl to stop us here in person. Then there are only two possibilities. First, as you guessed, the Qilin Snake Girl had already known in advance through the palace that we had set off from the Imperial City to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, so she came to stop it. It's just that why we weren't allowed to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons is unknown. The second is that the Qilin Snake Girl did not have any internal response in the palace, but by sensing the breath of some special treasures from the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons on our group, she thought that we intended to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, so she deliberately rushed to stop it. I think both of these possibilities are very large, because although not many people know about this border trip, they all know about people with noble status. When a person reaches a certain height, his ambition is great. It is inevitable that he will do things that secretly collude with the unicorn snake girl, and it is not impossible to plot the whole world. This second type I think is very likely to be the Qilin Talisman you carry with you, this is a treasure that can command the Qilin Saints, and it will definitely exude a special aura that ordinary people can't smell. This aura is very sensitive to non-human snake women. I don't know what do you think, the valley owner? ”
Scorpion Armor recalled for a moment and continued to speculate.
"Hmm...... The two points you analyzed are reasonable, if there is really someone in the palace who controls the Qilin Saint by colluding with the Qilin Snake Girl, and then dominates the world, it is not impossible. But the problem is that the purpose of the Kirin Snake Girl is to suck the blood of the Kirin Saint to sustain life. Who unifies the world doesn't mean much to them, right? Who can convince the arrogant Qilin Snake Girl, who only wants to suck the blood of the Qilin Saint to live, to cooperate with him? And after the Qilin Saint was sucked by their blood, where did he still have the ability to dominate the world? Besides, the Qilin Talisman is still in my hands, and without this Qilin Saint, I shouldn't have listened to their orders. So I don't think the first one is very likely. As for the second possibility, I think it's very big. Because in addition to the Qilin Talisman, I have another treasure on my body! It's this bracelet, I just got it before I set off. My mother gave it to me. According to my mother's statement, this bracelet should be related to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons. And in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, this bracelet seems to symbolize a very noble identity! Do you know the origin of this bracelet? ”
Ah Xiyan thought about it seriously and replied objectively.
Then he took off the bracelet and handed it to the Scorpion Armor to see if he recognized it.
"Gu Lord, although this is the first time I have seen this bracelet, I can feel that this bracelet seems to be even more powerful than the origin of the Qilin Talisman! In that case, the second one is probably the most likely. Maybe that unicorn snake girl is trying to stop you from wearing this bracelet into the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons! It's a pity that the legend about the unicorn snake girl doesn't mention any bracelets. Maybe you can only know why when you meet the unicorn snake girl in person. ”
Scorpion Armor glanced at the bracelet and replied with a solemn face.
After finishing speaking, he also respectfully returned the bracelet to A Xiyan.
"Since that's the case, then don't guess, you must know why when you meet the unicorn snake girl. By the way, Scorpion Armor, didn't you say before that the Qilin Snake Girl is actually a Qilin Holy Maiden, but a woman who has mutated within 7749 days of birth. It is also said that they are usually killed once they mutate, so where do these unicorn snake girls come from? ”
Seeing that the scorpion armor didn't know the origin of the bracelet, Ah Xiyan also said regretfully, and casually asked the reason for the existence of the unicorn snake girl.
"That's right, Valley Lord, although this unicorn snake girl has mutated, she is also a life after all. Therefore, since ancient times, it is inevitable that many mothers are reluctant to kill their daughters who are only a few dozen days old. After using other dead babies to steal beams and replace pillars and report to the royal family, he was quietly raised in private. So over time, there are so many unicorn snake girls secretly living in this world. It's just that if the unicorn snake girl can't suck the unicorn blood often, the purity of the unicorn blood in the body will become lower and lower, and the lifespan will be very short. So even if their mothers let them go when they were young, they died shortly after they became adults. Unless a large number of Qilin Saints are caught, then if you drink and suck their blood regularly, you can live for a long time. I guess this is the reason why the Qilin Holy Priest disappeared overnight back then, right? Presumably all this was planned by the Kirin Snake Girl! If this is the case, then the royal family of the former dynasty in the underground kingdom of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons is probably also in danger! These unicorn snake girls must have hated the rules of the royal family of the previous dynasty, that is, after their bloodlines mutated, they would brutally kill their ancestors who had only been forty-nine days old. In the past, they didn't live long, so naturally they had no intention of taking revenge on the royal family. Now that he has the blood of the Qilin Saint to suck, he has no worries about his life, so he naturally will not let go of the royal family of the previous dynasty! It seems that we still have to find a way to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons as soon as possible. ”
Scorpion Armor also couldn't bear to explain.
Obviously, I also feel that killing babies is a bit inhumane.
It's just that when it comes to mentioning the royal family of the previous dynasty later, I am very worried that the unicorn snake girl will take crazy revenge on the royal family of the previous dynasty.
"In that case, let's move on. Just stop when you're almost five miles away. Let my brother and them wait for news. It's up to you to accompany me to meet the unicorn snake girl. I think they are all related to my blood no matter what they say, and they are all my relatives. It's just that deliberately killing them because of mutation is indeed too cruel, and it also hurts their hearts. It's better to take this opportunity and everyone talk about it. I'll also see if there is a way to repair their mutated bloodline, even if it is to make them completely ordinary bloodline. At least it won't be worse than death because the purity of the bloodline is decreasing, and it's a hundred times better to live by sucking the blood of the living all day long, right? I think there's always a solution. There's no need to be dead or dead. Okay, let's not talk about it, you tell Xichen what I mean, and then let's hurry up. In the meantime, I want to be alone and quiet. Think about how to convince the unicorn snake girl when she meets her. ”
Ah Xiyan also felt that she couldn't wait any longer, so she quickly and decisively decided.
Then, Scorpion got out of the carriage and went to find Ashchen.
And Ah Xiyan sat in the carriage and closed her eyes to recuperate, while she was also thinking quickly in her heart about how to persuade the unicorn snake girl.
It didn't take long for Ah Xiyan to feel the carriage move, and she knew that she would soon be able to meet the legendary unicorn snake girl......
