Chapter 43: The Silver Ring
He frowned, and with his burning right hand, he felt out the piece of red jade token that Shen Wan had given. It was soaked in red, trembling with sensation, and the heat from its hands grew stronger. In an instant, the white light floated into the air, and the pale red spiritual power flowing inside the token became brighter and brighter, gradually changing to the size of two fists, and was attracted by the white light.
Beigong Han watched in amazement as the red and white lights suddenly merged, and before he could react, the light red was imprinted into the skin of his right index finger. In an instant, the blood on his body seemed to be boiling hot, and he felt dizzy, and his eyes were ghosted.
In a daze, he seemed to see a silver ring on his right index finger, and a fiery red stone embedded in it seemed to have liquid flowing. The heat on his body slowly subsided, but his vision was still blurry. He shook his head, and a wave of horror welled up in his heart: after his hearing was lost, his eyesight was more than ten times sharper than usual, and now, wouldn't God want to take away his eyesight too? When he was flustered and angry, a person suddenly appeared in front of him.
His whole body was covered by a black cloak, and he couldn't even see his face; But the evil aura that was revealed invisibly was extremely obvious, and what surprised Beigong Han the most was that the top of the person's head was about only to his abdomen. Another man in black, who appeared out of nowhere behind him, bowed slightly, as if asking the man in front of him for something.
"Lord, it was a dereliction of duty on his subordinates, he didn't find this person in time, his subordinates deserve to die, please give the Lord a sin!" The man knelt down suddenly, and the masked man raised his hand slightly, revealing the slender hand.
Beigong Han was shocked: Who is this person? How can you have such small hands? Look at this figure...... It's like a child. But the evil aura around him......
"Useless thing, get out." There was a hint of killing determination in the sweet voice, cold as the impermanence sent by Hades.
"Yes."
Beigong Han watched the man slowly approach him, and his doubts were even greater, and he said in a deep voice:
"What are you going to do?"
The man on the other side smiled and said, "...... Do? Scold... That's my business, you don't need to know. Beigong Han stared at his blurred eyes, unable to see the message conveyed by the man's only exposed eyes. But he had a gut feeling that he might have stumbled into some secret that he shouldn't know. And he happened to be deaf, which is really wronged.
"I have lost my hearing and cannot respond to your words, please forgive me for being rude." Beigong Han said.
The man on the other side paused briefly, then raised a cruel smile: "Oh? Can't hear me? But you... And how can this be proven? She giggled, her voice chilling, "I still prefer dead people, they don't speak, they're very good." As soon as the words fell, the sleeve robe was raised, and the black spiritual power was like a big net, wrapping towards Beigong Han from various immeasurable places, and the speed was so fast that it was difficult for the naked eye to reach.
Beigong Han saw the black qi, his body changed rapidly, and he wanted to dodge the attack, but he was not as fast as it was at all. The black qi was haunted by ghosts, and he felt as if there were countless tangible hands around his neck, and he couldn't breathe at all, and his brain began to gradually lack oxygen.
With a "bang", on his index finger, which he was clutching due to violent struggle, the silver ring suddenly burst out with a blood-red light, enveloping Beigong Han.
The masked man looked at Beigong Han who had disappeared in place in amazement, already dying, a wisp of contemplation crossed his eyes, and the corners of his lips hooked:
"Oh, it's fun, it's fun......"
Beigong Han was floating in a space intertwined with fiery red spiritual power, and an ancient voice sounded in his ears:
"Master, where are you going?"
He whispered softly: "Di Guo." β
As soon as the words fell, the surrounding fiery red began to retreat rapidly, and various colors of light were staggered, and suddenly, the white light was shengβ
Di Guo.
Exquisite pink walls and green tiles, jade carvings, and lively shouting and selling voices overflowed the entire street.
"Boom-"
A man descended from the sky and split the shop selling tofu into two. The guests screamed in horror and jumped out of the way. The boss hurried out of the house and saw an unconscious man lying on top of his collapsed shop. When he saw this, he was frightened and cried out:
"Someone! Save this son! After the surrounding guests settled down, they immediately surrounded them and whispered:
"Where did this person come from?"
"I don't know, I was just coaxing the child in the house, and suddenly I heard a loud noise outside, and the child was about to fall asleep, and he was so frightened that he started crying again. Alas, what a ......"
"He came from heaven! I saw it with my own eyes! Don't believe you, ask Ah Huang! β
"Wow!"
"Alas, this son, you said that you read too much, right? If you want me to see, this man is dressed extraordinarily, and he must be a rich kid who was robbed of his wealth and escaped. β
"Oh, you're all wrong, I think it's ......"
"Phew-" The sound of horses' hooves stopped suddenly, and a loud male voice sounded: "Everyone let go!" Let's get it! The yamen is on an errand. When the crowd saw the token, they all bowed their heads and retreated, leaving a semi-circle of open space.
When the man saw the man, his pupils shrank suddenly. He looked at the people around him who were gathering more and more, and shouted:
"It's all gone, it's all gone! Come! Take this person away. β
The new round of discussion was drowned out in the sound of raised horses' hooves and dissipated into the air.
β¦β¦
"Ahem...... Beigong Han felt a sharp pain in his throat, and after coughing a few times, a hot liquid filled the entire throat cavity. He squinted, saw the intricate curtain decoration above his head, and frowned: This is Di Guo? Is he dreaming? He's not dead yet?
Seeing that Beigong Han had woken up, the big palace maid on the side rushed out of the palace in surprise and shouted loudly:
"Doctor, doctor! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has woken up, take a look again, is there any major problem? β
Beigong Han's heart trembled: He ...... How can I hear the sound? It seems to be in a dream, and I wish it would never wake up...... He slowly closed his eyes and listened quietly to the whispers that sounded around every corner: the feeling of being reborn.
"His Highness has a serious injury to his throat, and he will not be able to recover for a while. In recent days, it is best to talk less and recuperate. The old man went to prescribe medicine, so that His Highness could take it earlier. β
"Thank you, Doctor."
"Han'er!" Beigong Han's eyes opened, and when he saw Beigong Cen striding into the house, he waved his hand at the palace maid and ordered:
"Stand down, all of you."
"Yes."
"Han'er! How did you end up like this? What happened?? Beigong Cen asked urgently, distress flashing in his eyes.
Why does it feel so real? Isn't this a dream? But why are his ears healed again? Suspicious, he pursed his lips and was about to make a sound, but suddenly felt another tingling pain in his throat, he frowned in pain, and spat out a mouthful of blood with "wow".
Beigong Cen looked at the large pool of blood in front of him in horror, and made him lie down in a panic, muttering in his mouth:
"I'm sorry Han'er, I'm sorry, it's my father's fault, your throat hurts, you have to rest, wait for you to get better in a few days, I'll ask you these things again." After he finished speaking, he got up in a panic, his sleeve was pulled, and Beigong Han stroked at him with his hand in the air. He looked at it in a fog, and in desperation, shouted out of the door:
"Someone! Prepare pen and paper for Your Highness! β
After the things were ready, Beigong Han sat up with his hands behind his back, and wrote on the paper:
"Erchen didn't know how he ended up here, and he encountered a lot of strange things here, which Erchen had never seen. But the father doesn't have to worry, the treasure has already been obtained. β
Beigong Cen hurriedly said: "Silly Han'er! Of course my father cares more about you than this treasure! How did you get hurt? frightened my father......" His eyes were slightly red, Beigong Han's heart warmed, and he continued to write:
"My son was hearing impaired at that time, and I don't know what happened."
"Han'er! This time I went to the ice city to hunt for treasures, because my father knew the potential harm and put you in danger, if you want to complain, you can complain about your father! He frowned tightly, and there was a hint of unbearability in his dark eyes.
Beigong Han shook his head and continued:
"This is the duty of the prince as a prince. The sons have no regrets, and they have nothing to do with their father. β
"Your Majesty, it's time for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to drink medicine."
Beigong Cen stood up suddenly, brought the medicine bowl from outside the door and said, "Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and drink the medicine, it's better quickly!" Beigong Han took it and swallowed it with difficulty, he could have drunk it all in one go, but he drank a cup of tea for a long time. After drinking, Beigong Cen helped him lie down and said softly:
"Child, don't think too much, rest well, and my father will come to see you tomorrow."
Beigong Han nodded, a trace of confusion flashed in his dark eyes: he remembered that the masked man in the library was about to kill him. Then a burst of red light flashed, and the next moment he opened his eyes, he arrived at the country of Di...... All of this, thinking about it now, still makes him feel incredible.
The silver ring suddenly flashed through his mind, and he hurriedly raised his hand to see that the original blood-red gem seemed to have been washed in pure water, showing a milky white color. He frowned: This ring is extremely hidden, if he hadn't accidentally pressed the mechanism, others wouldn't have been able to find it, isn't it the heirloom of the Fire Clan? But the Fire Clan's treasures, how can he use them? Beigong Han carefully studied the ring for a long time, and tried to take it off with force, but the ring was like growing in flesh and could not be shaken in the slightest.
β¦β¦
At the right time, he circled around in the wide open door of Beigong Han, and was anxious: It's been a day, and His Royal Highness should have a sense of time when he reads, and come back to sleep. What's going on? Is something going on? The panic in his heart was infinitely magnified by uncertainty, and he shook his head fiercely: No, no, no, let's go to the king first and ask for clarification...... He lifted his feet and walked out, so fast that he bumped into a man head-on. He felt a pain in his chest and frowned at the visitor. The man rubbed his forehead, looked up, and said in surprise:
"On time? You've arrived? It's pretty fast, I thought it would take another five or six days. β
"Miss Shen, do you know where Gongzi has gone?" Asked urgently.
When Shen Wan heard this, she frowned: "Generally speaking, it should be that I went to the Library Pavilion." But it's so late, and the library has long been closed......" There was a panic in her heart for no reason, she suddenly raised her head, and said:
"I've got to go to the Library to find out, you..."
"I'm with you."
