Chapter 55: Matryoshka Dolls
"Since the birth of the Ghost Domain, the Nian clan has multiplied here, and the world has only seen that we can achieve supreme lifespan without cultivating, whether it is humans, demons, gods, or demons, they all flock to it.
But I didn't know that the dead air that was pervasive here would continue to wear down the minds of the tribesmen, until finally they went crazy and died.
In recent years, the clans have gradually withered, leaving only one lineage of the Nian clan, and the ancestors have left ancestral teachings, prohibiting clan people from intermarrying with foreigners, which makes it more difficult for the clan heirs. β
The old patriarch Gou seems to love to tell stories, and while talking, he digs and pulls in his sleeves, and still does not forget to chatter: "Now there are many people in the clan who are dissatisfied with this clan rule and hope to abolish this regulation, but I don't know that as a patriarch, I am also powerless." β
The woman seemed to be very patient and listened quietly.
Chuan Yun also listened to the story, according to the routine, he should be paving the way for what he said next.
"The prohibition of intermarriage with foreigners is to ensure the purity of the bloodline of the bloodline clansmen, and only clans with pure bloodlines can survive in the ghost domain." Speaking of this, his voice was a little louder, "Those clansmen who sneak out of the ghost domain behind their clans are very naΓ―ve, the clansmen will be planted with the power of restraint in their bloodlines since birth, and once they leave the ghost domain, their lifespan is not as good as that of an ordinary mortal." β
He finally pulled out an unpretentious wooden box from his sleeve.
"Supreme lifespan is the grace of the Heavenly Dao to the clansmen, and only living in the realm of the Ghost Domain is a constraint and protection for the clansmen. This gentleman thought that the ancestors of the clan had already made this clear. β
The woman's cold voice sounded, telling the truth.
"But now that the other clans have long since withered, the ghost domain is about to fall, my clan has been conscientiously guarding the ghost domain for so many years, do they deserve to be destroyed together?" Patriarch Gou's hand holding the wooden box trembled, and his expression was sad.
The next moment, I saw him directly throw away the crutch in his hand that symbolized the identity of the patriarch of the clan, and suddenly knelt on his knees.
The "favor" he wants is self-evident.
Seeing this, the woman didn't move, and the next moment she only heard her sigh and said: "Everything the clansmen have done for this common life, this gentleman has seen it, it is really a model for all living beings, and he also knows that it is unfair to the clansmen to end up like this."
But the binding power in the bloodline of the clan was planted by the ten ancient gods, and the ancestors of the clan also swore a heavy oath that they were willing to guard the ghost domain for the common people, which can be regarded as another kind of "contract".
Thousands of years have passed, and the binding power of the contract has long been deeply rooted in the bloodline of the clansmen, seeking common ground while reserving differences.
This monarch's strength is low, how can he help you abolish the power of bondage in the bloodline of the clansmen? β
Chuan Yun listened to the conversation between the two, she could understand word by word, but she didn't understand it when it was organized together, and this time she pulled out the "Ten Ancient Divine Monarchs" and "The Power of Blood Bondage", why is it more and more outrageous?
"My lord Mingjian, the oath made by the ancestors as descendants does not dare not listen, and the younger generations dare not dare to ask the clansmen to be able to support the binding power of the bloodline, but I just hope that the clansmen can leave a trace of bloodline after the fall of the ghost domain." Patriarch Gou bowed his head, kowtowed, and then raised the wooden box in his hand above his head.
The woman turned sideways slightly without moving, avoiding his big gift, and frowned lightly: "It turns out that the old patriarch Gou has been prepared for a long time. β
She stretched out her hand, and the wooden box landed gently in the palm of her hand, and the box opened, only to see a dead wood branch lying quietly inside, and a small gray ball of light.
Chuan Yun recognized that the branch of the dead wood was a branch of the Immortal God Tree, which turned out to be from this old man, and... That blob of light......
She seemed to have guessed something.
Patriarch Gou didn't speak, just raised his head and looked at the small gray light cluster in the woman's palm with a loving expression.
"It's ...... Glimmer...... Remnant Soul? The woman was a little surprised.
As soon as a clan member is born, the power of bondage is automatically planted in the bloodline, but if he destroys his body before he is born, he uses the power of life to separate the soul from the bondage of the "contract......
How cruel.
"Presumptuous, are you really the king who won't blame you?"
The woman seemed to be angry, and shouted angrily, and the anger around her body turned into substance and quickly dispersed, shocking the old patriarch to spit out a mouthful of blood.
The old patriarch Gou slowly stood up, as if he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with doing this, he wiped the blood from his mouth without hurrying, and bowed his head again: "My lord, forgive me, this child is a clanman, if he is born, but in a hundred days, he will follow the clansmen together, and his soul will be destroyed." β
"This is the only chance that the clan has been waiting for for millions of years, a chance to break free from the shackles of the contract."
"If this can allow him to survive and leave a trace of blood for the clan, the clan people will be willing even if their souls are extinguished."
"Ask the adults to be fulfilled."
Patriarch Gou's voice trembled.
He is in Bo, a glimmer of life for the people of the Bonian clan.
"This is your clan's own choice, this gentleman will not beak too much, just ......"
The woman hesitated: "The Immortal God Tree is still too evil. β
Gou Lao Patriarch has already made up his mind: "No matter what the final outcome is, the clan people are willing, and they also ask the adults to take action to bring the hope of my clan out of the ghost domain." β
The woman didn't speak for a long time, as if she was thinking, and she didn't know how long it took before she said, "But." β
The wooden box was re-closed and disappeared into the woman's palm out of thin air.
Chuan Yun guessed that she must have a small space like herself.
Then I only heard the woman say to drive people away: "You go out first, Benjun still has unsolved doubts." β
"Yes."
The old patriarch Gou achieved his goal, and he didn't stay long, and stood up tremblingly with his crutches, as if he was going to fall down in the next second. He saluted the woman in front of him with a respectful face, and then slowly paced away.
Seeing that the old patriarch Gou was gone, the woman moved, looked around, and finally laid down an enchantment with anxiety, only to approach the Xuanji Mirror with satisfaction, and once again hit a golden light at the Xuanji Mirror, and some pictures appeared on the Xuanji Mirror again.
Obviously, she didn't finish watching all the pictures in the Xuanji Mirror just now, so she forcibly stopped.
She seemed to have a hunch that what she would see next would be more than she expected, so she didn't want a second person besides her to see it.
Seeing the woman's mirror image on the Xuanji Mirror, Chuan Yun was still stunned, she guessed correctly, this woman was indeed the person in the Xuanji Mirror, dressed up, and her temperament was exactly the same as in the mirror.
I saw that the figure of the woman in the Xuanji Mirror appeared again, but this time she was no longer wearing a military uniform, but a breathtaking red dress, and a long sword with a black evil aura in her hand, making her whole person look charming...... Demon in the devil!
This...... How can there be another one?
Chuan Yun instantly felt that his head was big.
This is a typical matryoshka doll!
