Chapter 137: The Curse of the Nangong Family
"Since everyone knows that there is such a thing as a curse, why did the Nangong family take this risk? Didn't he know? Yuwei asked.
He knew that the entire magic village knew that the reason why he stole the crystal ball was because he thought that his mana was already able to fight against the curse in the crystal ball, and he thought that stealing the crystal ball was his own business even if he was cursed, but getting the crystal ball would allow his grandchildren to be reused for generations, and the glory and wealth would be inexhaustible. And at that time, he was tempted by the ruler of Sutan Kingdom, so the Nangong family took the risk to steal the crystal ball. But he never thought that the curse of this crystal ball was not just one person, but that this family had been cursed for generations. Therefore, the people of the Nangong family will not live to be thirty years old, and in order to be able to prolong their children as much as possible, their marriage age will be younger. But very few of them survive the age of thirty. All the other families in the magic village knew about this, so the people of the other branches were unwilling to marry their daughters to the Nangong family or their sons could not marry the daughters of the Nangong family. The people of the Nangong family can't get mixed up, so they can only leave the magic village and go to the outside world to develop. Through their own efforts and ingenuity, the Nangong family has been mainly buying and selling for generations, and they have been prosperous, but they have never been able to escape the curse. Agrippa said.
Yu Wei thought about it, she had also learned something from Nangong Yixuan before, it seems that Nangong Yixuan did not deceive herself, after listening to what Agrippa said, Yu Wei knew the ins and outs of the whole thing better.
Yuwei asked, "Then can this curse be lifted?" ”
Agrippa scratched his head and said, "I haven't heard from my grandfather, so I don't know." ”
"So... Yu Wei suddenly cut off the clue, all hope was on Agrippa, and Yu Wei was a little discouraged.
Baili Lin knew that Yu Wei was in a bad mood, and comforted: "Miss, you must be able to find a way, since you can curse, there will definitely be a way to solve it." Maybe the method is recorded in some important place in the magic village, such as ancient books, magic weapons, etc. ”
"Pavilion Master, you have a point!" Yu Wei listened to Bai Lilian's suggestion and nodded.
Then he turned his head and asked, "Agrippa, do you have anything particularly important there, or holy relics or anything like that?" ”
Agrippa thought for a moment and said, "In addition to the stolen crystal ball, the most important thing in the magic village is the elf stone and the map in your hand. ”
"And where did that cursed crystal ball go?" Yuwei asked.
"I heard grandpa say that the crystal ball disappeared, and some people said that after the crystal ball disappeared, it became a living curse, cursing the descendants of the Nangong family for generations. It is also said that the crystal ball was afraid of being used again and becoming a tool of the rulers, so the crystal ball hid itself. But in the next 100 years, no one will ever see a crystal ball again. Agrippa said.
Yu Wei picked up the map and said to the candle flame: "You said that this map is also the most important for your people, but this map has nothing but the southeast, northwest, and northwest on it, and there is space on it, I always feel that this map is more than that, do you think there is anything else on this map?" Agrippa, do you think about what your ancestors would have done if they wanted to hide the contents? ”
"I want to see it." Agrippa's chin was in thought.
Yu Wei and Bai Li Lin looked at Agrippa nervously, and suddenly he clapped his palms and said, "I remember that I have a magic book at home, which records a lot of magic and how to crack it, and you may be able to find what we need in it!" ”
Yu Wei and Bai Li Lin said in unison after hearing this: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Agrippa was frightened by the voices of the two, and pouted aggrievedly: "You didn't ask... ”
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, I have a very important matter to discuss with you when I called you here."
"What's the matter?" Agrippa asked.
Yu Wei pointed to the glowing elf stone in the box behind her and asked, "Have you ever seen this situation?" What to do? ”
Agrippa stood in front of the chest, and saw that the gold, wood, water, and fire spirits in the box were constantly vibrating and shining.
"This..." Agrippa seemed to have seen this scene somewhere, but he was not sure for sure.
Seeing Agrippa looking at the elf stone in a daze, Baili Lin asked, "Agrippa, do you know what's wrong with the elf stone?" How to keep moving, will there be any bad effects? ”
"Pavilion master, don't worry, princess, the reason why this reaction occurs is because the elf stones can sense other elf stones, and now the four elf stones are there, so the energy will be relatively large. There is no other impact for the time being, and now that these four elf stones have been collected, you can use the map to open the door to the future. Pavilion Master, Princess, when are you going to open the Gate of Time and Space? Agrippa explained while comforting Yuwei and Baili Lone, who were a little uneasy in their hearts.
"Well, at the beginning, I was thinking that I would collect four elf stones to open the door of time and space, and I would leave here and return to the modern era. But when I got the Golden Elf, I promised the people of the Nangong family to help them break the curse, and in exchange, he was willing to give the Golden Elf to me. Yuwei decided to tell the story.
Agrippa suddenly exploded, and chattered: "The people of the Nangong family deserve it, if it weren't for the people of the Nangong family who stole the crystal ball and then let the ruler fight for the crystal ball, it would not have caused the magic village to suffer." How many villagers have been displaced and lost their loved ones. ”
"Even so, the people of the Nangong family have already paid the price for several generations, and it is enough. Besides, the mistakes made by our ancestors do not cause more than three generations, and we should not be angry with our descendants. Yuwei said.
Agrippa thought about it and felt that what Yuwei said was not unreasonable. Sighing, Agrippa said, "Otherwise, I'll go back to the Magic Village tomorrow to get the book on how to dissolve the magic." Let's see if there's anything in there. ”
"Okay, thank you! Agrippa, tell me if you need any help. Do you want me to accompany you when you go back tomorrow? Yuwei said.
"Princess, it's okay, you just came back to Furong Country not long ago, take a good rest. I'm just going back to get the book, out of the way. Agrippa said.
Baili Lin said to Yuwei: "Miss, if you are worried about Agrippa, I will send a few people to protect him tomorrow." ”
"Agrippa, if there's nothing else to do, you can go back and rest first." Pelli said to Agrippa.
"Okay, thank you, Pavilion Master, then I'll go out first, and I'll go back to the Magic Village tomorrow." Agrippa Dao.
"Miss, did you really decide to do this?" Baili Lin looked at Agrippa in the distance and asked Yuwei.
"Nangong Yixuan and Nangong Yiyu of the Nangong family are both friends of mine, and their two brothers once lent a helping hand to me when I was suffering, so if you can help, help them. No matter how much misunderstanding and hatred there is, that's all in the past. And how can you go back on what you promised in person? Yuwei explained to Baili Lone.
Baili Lin nodded and said, "Okay, no matter what decision the eldest lady makes, I will support the eldest lady and advance and retreat with you." ”
"Uncle He, thank you!" Yuwei said.
"It's not early, eldest lady, why don't you rest here tonight, and I'll send someone to send you home tomorrow." Hundred miles of silence.
Yu Wei shook her head and said, "No, I'm going back in a while, I secretly ran out by myself tonight, if I let Murong Mufeng know, then what I did would be in vain." ”
Looking at Bai Li Lin with a puzzled look, he replied: "I thought that I would have to leave here soon, in order for Murong Mufeng to let go of me, I could only do this, even if we met at that time, I would pretend not to know you." ”
"Okay, Miss, I know what to do." Hundred miles of silence.
Yuwei put the map back in the box, and then said to Baili Lonely, "Okay, it's time for me to go home." ”
"Okay young lady, I have prepared a carriage and people to take you back, so that it is safe and no one will recognize you." Baili Lin arranged for Dugu Xue to send Yuwei back to her home.
When parting, Yuwei did not forget to instruct: "Uncle He, if you have any news, remember to ask someone to give me news." ”
"Miss, don't worry, I remember." When Yuwei left, Baili Lin thoughtfully arranged the skirt for Yuwei, pulled the carriage curtain, and then said to Dugu Xue: "Take good care of the princess!" ”
"Yes, Pavilion Master!" Duguxue flicked her whip, and after a while, the carriage disappeared into the vast night.
The next day, Agrippa and Hundred Miles rushed to the Magic Village, which seemed to be still ruined, and Agrippa walked through the mess before stopping at a small house, which was still the same as it had been the last time.
Baili was puzzled and asked, "Why didn't I hear you say there was such a book when we came last time?" I've searched it all over the officers and soldiers, can I still find that book? ”
Agrippa replied confidently, "Yes, I didn't need the book at the time, so I didn't plan to take it away." This time I suddenly needed it, and I remembered where the book was. ”
Agrippa looked around in the cluttered house before finally stopping next to a bed. Agrippa lifted the bed with all his might, but as soon as he was halfway up, the bed was too heavy for Agrippa to hold on, and he lowered the board in his hand.
"I'll help you! It's hard for one person to move such a big bed. "Baili Lin offered to help.
"I'll count 1, 2, 3, and we'll move the bed to the side together." Hundred miles of silence.
"Good!" Agrippa nodded.
“1! 2! 3! Agrippa and Pallison tried their best to move the bed away.
With a thud, the bed was removed. Agrippa put his ear to the floor, and this plank tapped, that plank tapped, and finally, one of the planks made a sound of emptiness.
