Chapter 5: Tragic Characters

After a while, the footsteps in the main hall were hurried, and a team of guards hurriedly rushed to the top of the main hall and fell to their knees. After a while, he saw a man dressed as a priest with a high crown on his head coming to the top of the main hall, and Li Mu guessed that this person should be Xu Fu.

Jing Ke lay in a pool of blood and watched everything, but he didn't know what King Qin would do with him next. In fact, it doesn't matter what you do with him, because he is not even afraid of death. But he never imagined that he would face something more terrifying than death.

I saw that as soon as King Qin saw Xu Fu coming to the palace, he immediately roared. "Xu Fu, I want this person to never be reborn, can you do it?"

Xu Fu saw King Qin pointing at Jing Ke and roaring hysterically, looking like he wanted to kill all the people present. As a monk, Xu Fu certainly knows how to make a person never be reborn, but it is against heaven to do it. However, Xu Fu also knew that if he didn't agree, he was afraid that King Qin would also do even more murderous things under his anger.

After Xu Fu promised King Qin, he pulled out the dagger stuck in the pillar and walked in front of Jing Ke. Then he ordered someone to straighten Jing Ke's head, and then stabbed the dagger directly from the top of his head.

Li Mu also saw all this clearly, and when the dagger pierced Jing Ke's head, Li Mu clearly felt that Jing Ke's soul was all sucked into the dagger.

After Xu Fu waited until Jing Ke's soul was completely sucked into the dagger, he used his own blood to draw a soul forbidden spell on the dagger, which made Jing Ke's soul trapped in the dagger forever.

After Xu Fu did this, he handed the dagger to the King of Qin and explained that Jing Ke's soul was trapped. It was only then that King Qin's anger subsided a little, but King Qin said that he didn't want to see Jing Ke's corpse on his own territory. So someone next to him suggested that Jing Ke's body be divided into five horses, and then the body should be buried in the most remote place of the territory, and Jing Ke's head was buried on the coast of the East China Sea, which is now the place of Shangdu.

The wind and clouds change, and the years fly by. The dagger that assassinated the King of Qin circulated in the world, because it was extremely sharp, and was often used as a killing weapon, and the people killed were princes and generals. And the blood of these people is all blessed by the Mandate of Heaven, and after a long time, the forbidden soul spell on the dagger will slowly loosen. Finally today, when Yu Jianlin's blood was stained with the dagger, that Jing Ke finally divided his soul a little, and what kind of person is this Jing Ke, plus more than two thousand years of cultivation, even if there is only a trace, it is not something that a mortal like Yu Jianlin can bear.

When Li Mu was immersed in the illusion, everyone on the balcony looked at Li Mu in fear, because they had just heard the words from Li Mu's mouth. The desolation at the time of parting, the murderous aura that assassinated King Qin, and the boundless resentment against the monarch were all felt by everyone on the balcony. If it weren't for the timely protection of the Fa, I am afraid that everyone present would be in danger.

What they didn't know was that Li Mu was also in a crisis at this time. At first, Li Mu still felt that he was a spectator, but now he found that Jing Ke's soul actually wanted to invade his body to resurrect the soul by borrowing corpses. But if Jing Ke succeeds, then Li Mu will probably be dissipated by then.

Li Mu felt that Jing Ke's soul had invaded his body and then drove his soul out little by little, at this time Li Mu began to regret why he was so reckless before, causing him to be in danger now. But regret is regret, what Li Mu can do now is to force out the Jing Ke soul that invaded his body.

With Li Mu's current mana, he would definitely not be able to win compared to Jing Ke, who had more than 2,000 years of Taoism, but Li Mu suddenly thought of how Xu Fu had trapped Jing Ke's soul in the dagger in the first place.

There wasn't much time for Li Mu to think, so Li Mu had to give it a try.

Li Mu's soul tried to control his hand while trying to resist Jing Ke's ghost. In this way, Li Mu, who was already difficult to resist Jing Ke, became more passive, but he had to fight, otherwise sooner or later Jing Ke would force his soul out of his body. Finally, he felt that he could control his hand a little, and then he was ruthless in his heart, controlling his hand to hold the dagger and stab it directly into his body.

The people on the balcony were also startled when they saw Li Mu's action, thinking that Li Mu had suddenly lost his mind and was about to step forward to stop him, but An Zhiquan stopped them all.

"What are you doing, didn't you see him stabbing himself with a knife?" Yu Wanqing didn't expect An Zhiquan to stop everyone from going to Li Mu, did he want to see death and not save him?

"You don't have to be nervous, Li Muhe is sure." Regarding Li Mu's sudden self-harm, An Zhiquan knew that there must be something hidden in it, and if he ventured forward to stop it, it might backfire. In addition, Li Mu's knife just now did not hit the vital point, so there was no danger for a while.

Listening to An Zhiquan's explanation, everyone gave up their plan to rescue Li Mu.

It is said that after Li Mu stabbed the dagger that was more like a short sword into his body, the ghost of Jing Ke suddenly seemed to be a great enemy. You must know that although this short sword has experienced such a long time, after all, it has trapped Jing Ke for many years, so the power is still there.

Li Mu, who was originally downwind, had a strong helper at this moment, and naturally he did his best to assist the short sword to re-inhale Jing Ke's ghost. That Jing Ke also discovered Li Mu's plan, but his ghost still couldn't resist it, and in the end, the ghost was sucked into the short sword.

After seeing Jing Ke's ghost being sucked in by the short sword, Li Mu's eyes that had been closed suddenly opened, and then Li Mu used his own blood scholar Xu Fu to draw a forbidden soul spell, so that Jing Ke's ghost was trapped in the short sword again.

Everyone saw that Li Mu had woken up, and they all went up to ask what had happened.

Li Mu saw that Yu Wanqing and Mr. Song surrounded him and asked him vigorously, and Yu Jianlin also looked at him with hopeful eyes, which made Li Mu, who was covering his wounds, speechless.

"Please, can you help me stop the bleeding first?"

"Wan Qing, go and call a doctor."

Soon, the dead doctor of the Yu family was invited by Yu Wanqing, and then cleaned up Li Mu's wounds. Because it wasn't a big deal, it was just a few stitches and a bandage.

After Li Mu's wound was treated, he saw that Yu Jianlin wanted to speak and stopped, so he simply told him directly, and his nightmare was over.

When Yu Jianlin heard Li Mu say this, the stone in his heart immediately put down. He didn't expect that the nightmare that had plagued him for two weeks would actually be solved by the young man in front of him, although the heat was solved by a method of self-harm that he had never heard of, which made him think that he would be grateful for it later. However, he was still curious about how Li Mu solved it, and what was the reason for Li Mu's sudden yelling before.

Regarding Yu Jianlin's doubts, Li Mu did not hide them, but told everything he saw. Everyone was also embarrassed after listening to Li Mu's statement, although they could guess from the two desolate famous sentences in Li Mu's mouth that this matter must be related to Jing Ke, but they really waited until Li Mu said it to feel that the matter was so bizarre.

Yu Jianlin didn't even know that the dagger he inadvertently auctioned was actually used by Jing Ke, a famous assassin in history, to assassinate the King of Qin, so the value of this dagger now must be much higher than the price he auctioned. But although Yu Jianlin knew that this dagger was very valuable, when he knew that Jing Ke's ghost was still in the dagger, he really didn't want to put this dagger by his side. When I didn't know what to do with the dagger, I suddenly saw Li Mu, who was already sitting on the chair sent by the servant, and a thought suddenly popped up in my heart.

"Master Li, this matter was resolved by the master, why don't I give this short sword to the master."

Li Mu also guessed Yu Jianlin's mind when he saw his expression, in fact, he also liked the short sword quite a lot, but the matter was far from being as simple as Yu Jianlin said.

"Mr. Yu, you don't need to call me a master, just call me Li Mu." Li Mu really felt awkward about others calling himself a master.

When Yu Jianlin heard Li Mu say this, his face was also stunned, and then his face eased a lot, and he was even more impressed with Li Mu in his heart. You must know that many people, whether they have real skills or not, will care about the honorific title of others, but the young man in front of him is obviously superb, but he is not arrogant or impatient.

Li Mu saw that Yu Jianlin had already understood, so he continued: "This short sword, to be honest, I really like it, but I think it's better to keep this short sword in this room." ”

"Why is that?" Yu Jianlin couldn't wait to send the short sword far away, but at this moment, he heard Li Mu say that he wanted to put the short sword in the house, which made him feel at ease in this room in the future.

Li Mu knew what Yu Jianlin was worried about, so he also comforted him: "Mr. Yu, you can rest assured, that Jing Ke's ghost has been trapped in the short sword, as long as I regularly strengthen that Jing Ke, it will never come out again and affect you." ”

As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake for ten years, he was afraid of the well rope, even if Li Mu patted his chest and assured him, he still did not dispel Yu Jianlin's worries.

In fact, the reason why Li Mu asked Yu Jianlin to leave the short sword in his villa was that he actually had a certain idea. After all, Jing Ke is a tragic character, and it is really miserable to be trapped in a short sword for more than 2,000 years without seeing the light of day. In ancient times, the short sword could drink blood as an assassination weapon, so Jing Ke was able to use it to nourish the soul, but the more modern the short sword drank less blood, until the end the short sword was not stained with blood at all, which made Jing Ke's ghost in a weak state, which is why Jing Ke has not been very strong as a powerful ghost for more than 2,000 years.

These are all things that Li Mu felt after becoming Jing Ke, if it weren't for Yu Jianlin's accidental finger cut, I'm afraid that Jing Ke's ghost would disappear in a few years. And the reason why Li Mu asked Yu Jianlin to leave the short sword in the villa was because Jing Ke's head was buried under this villa. The soldiers who were ordered to bury Jing Ke's head on the coast of the East China Sea were buried on the top of this mountain.

The head is where the human spirit is, even if the soul has been extracted, but Jing Ke's spiritual energy is still left in the head, and two thousand years of time is to make Jing Ke's head and the land on the top of the mountain integrated, it just so happens that Yu Jianlin's villa was built on Jing Ke's head, so naturally the whole villa has become one of the mountaintops.

But if it was a normal residence, it wouldn't have an impact, but then Yu Jianlin happened to bring back the short sword that trapped Jing Ke's ghost, and it happened to cut his finger to provide Jing Ke with blood, so that his weak ghost could be temporarily nourished. It is said to be a coincidence but maybe it is providence, anyway, Jing Ke's ghost felt his head after it came out, which made the anger in his heart explode again, so Yu Jianlin will be haunted by black qi, and the whole villa will be shrouded in black heads. If it weren't for Li Mu's timely appearance, I'm afraid that this villa would have become a famous haunted house in less than a year.

Then Li Mu knew this, why did he want Yu Jianlin to leave the short sword in the villa, wouldn't it hurt him again.
