Chapter 570: The Wanderer
A week ago.
Bai Yu made a deal with Yamakai Division on the condition of the dragon's corpse.
In exchange, I obtained relevant information about the bloodline of the Northern Underworld family.
From the top-secret database of the Shan Kai Division, he learned about a curse about the bloodline of the Northern Underworld.
That is, the 'Great Vow of Consecration'.
The thousand-year-old family has a deep heritage, and it can be accepted that it has not been canonized for a period of time, and it will not be out for decades, and it will not particularly affect the family, but if it is a hundred years, or even hundreds of years...... Then it will inevitably affect the family inheritance.
The four families of Ximen, Dongfang, Nangong, and Beiming, who had the same troubles, adopted the decision to marry each other and support each other.
However, among them, the bloodline inheritance of the Northern Underworld family is the most unstable.
The longest time was that more than 200 years of canonization lineage was severed.
And in order to avoid the recurrence of this situation, the Northern Underworld family chose to go sideways.
About five hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Northern Hell family carved a canonization oath based on blood.
For the lineage of the family, if there is no one in the family who is canonized, someone must be canonized, otherwise the lineage is destined to only live to the age of twenty-seven.
Twenty-seven is a fixed limit.
The closer to the age of twenty-seven, the more the concentration of blood will soar, and the closer it will be to death, the more its life potential will be squeezed and burst out.
Once canonized, the vow expires.
As long as there is a bloodline in the Northern Underworld family who can be canonized, then the entire Northern Underworld family is safe and sound.
But if it is not canonized, this canonization oath will be like a shackle, one after another on the necks of the children of the family with the highest bloodline strength in the contemporary era.
Of course, there are two exceptions to this situation.
The first exception is when the canonization vow is valid for a woman.
They only need to give birth before the age of 27 to transfer their vows of canonization to their offspring.
Because childbirth causes the mother's blood vein concentration to be impaired, it often does not take decades to fully recover.
In this generation, the person who has taken the great oath of canonization is the North Underworld.
In the previous generation, the people who carried the vow of canonization were ......
"The Key to the North."
Bai Yu said: "My biological mother, your aunt. ”
Bei Yingque didn't speak.
Instead, Bei Minglan grabbed the corner of his clothes and asked, "Brother, is this true?" Why did I never know, never heard the clan elders say it? ”
Bei Mingque's expression was indifferent, he may be paralyzed, or maybe he didn't care about these things for a long time, and said lightly: "Because there is no need to tell the clansmen, only those who have taken the great oath of canonization are qualified to know these secrets." ”
"But, twenty-seven years old, canonized at the age of twenty-seven...... Bei Minglan's pretty face turned pale: "The youngest canonization in Great Xia is also after the age of thirty, doesn't this mean that we descendants will die!" ”
"In the history of the Northern Underworld family, there are two people who have succeeded." Bei Ying Que comforted.
"Really?" There was a glimmer of hope in Bei Minglan's eyes.
"Fake." Bai Yu ruthlessly dismantled the stage: "The canonization of these two people was when other people received the canonization oath, and they were canonized without the shackles of the canonization oath, and it had nothing to do with the canonization oath at all, and even later wanted to remove the canonization oath, but was blocked." ”
"Throughout the past 500 years, no one has ever been canonized before the age of twenty-seven."
He said slowly: "This road is almost a dead end. ”
"I've been on this road for ten years. ”
"You know what to do." Bai Yu said: "It's too late now." ”
"You're talking about abolishing bloodlines?" Bei Mingque asked rhetorically: "But you know what the consequences of doing this are, I will lose my current cultivation and realm, and it will be difficult to go further in the next life, not only that, but I will also lose the identity of Haoyue and the successor of the Bei Ying family......
"But you can live." White Elm Road.
"It's better to die than to live like that."
Bei Mingque met Bai Yu's gaze, and rarely spit out his chest: "I am different from you, you left everything you were born and relied on your own ability to get to this point, so you can afford to take it and put it down; I'm different from you, I haven't tried to let go, I've carried a heavy burden from the beginning. ”
"Once I leave these burdens behind, I will become as light as a feather myself."
"These burdens are already a part of me, and to leave them behind is to leave myself behind."
"The canonization oath is a good amulet, but ...... Who knew that without it, I would have been able to get to where I am today? ”
"Right and wrong are never absolute."
Bai Yu raised his eyebrows: "You are open-minded." ”
"I just know that after breaking away from the canonization oath, I will no longer be qualified to chase the wind and clouds, climb dangerous peaks, and swallow the sun and the moon......" Bei Yingque held his palm: "That's what I can't tolerate." ”
Bai Yu understood it and said no more.
Continue on and soon arrive at your destination.
Bei Mingque pointed to the courtyard in front of him: "Go in, it's where my aunt lives, you can stay as long as you want, and no one will bother." ”
Bai Yu said, "Thank you." ”
Bei Shenque continued: "Now that you know about the Great Oath of Consecration, it proves that you have already guessed the truth of that matter? ”
"Whether it's the truth or not, we have to ask, but it doesn't seem to matter anymore." Bai Yu scribbled a sentence, he took two steps forward, and paused slightly: "I can understand that you dislike and hate me." ”
Bei Mingque was silent.
watched Bai Yu step into the small courtyard.
Suddenly, he remembered something from a long time ago.
I still remember that it was snowing heavily that day, and he was sent to the front of the ancestral hall, and was asked by a group of old-fashioned old people to kneel and kowtow in front of the ancestral spirit tablet.
'From now on, you are the descendant of the Northern Underworld family, and you need to take on the responsibilities that the descendant has not been able to complete'
'Swear to your fathers!' ’
After leaving the ancestral hall, he became a descendant, and he could never return to his former small home in the future.
However, the small family did not need him, and his parents had already separated and formed a family.
The childhood of the North Underworld is missing.
The only memory he had of the warmth was the woman he first met when he was thirteen.
It was also a heavy snow day.
She held herself in her arms, kept crying and apologized, and said 'I'm sorry', that may be the first time that Bei Mingque felt that the hug between people was so warm, and it turned out that there were still people in the world who cared about his life or death.
Since then, this woman has become the closest relative in his heart.
"He probably won't believe it."
"I've never hated him, and I haven't hated my aunt."
"Admittedly, I don't like him, but not to the point of disgust...... It's like seeing a more favored peer, and I'm a little jealous and unconvinced. ”
"Now, I'm even more relieved."
"I'm really not as good as him."
Bei Mingque left, with a relieved smile.
At this moment, I can see my contradictory heart more clearly.
His state of mind unconsciously became stronger and went to a higher level.
……
Hometown timidity.
Bai Yu couldn't tell how he was feeling at this time.
Since he knew that his biological mother was still here, his greatest wish after crossing over was to see each other.
But after all, ten years have passed, and the memory has not been blurred, but the image may have long been different.
He was a little distracted for a moment.
It wasn't until there was a force from behind him that gently pushed him into the courtyard, that he woke up like a dream, poured a little more strength into his body, and walked inside.
The closer he got to the figure in the greenhouse, the more Bai Yu could feel that the boy in his body was coming back to life and becoming vivid.
The temperament that lingered on him gradually faded away from the free and mature of his body, and became immature and clumsy.
Like a young man who has been living alone for more than ten years, after returning home, he has just crossed the threshold, and he becomes in a hurry, and he still has to be nagged by his mother to tidy up his collar, pat the dust, and complain about 'how can such a big person still be like a child'.
No matter how old he is, in front of his mother, the child is always a child.
Bai Yu walked into the greenhouse, and at this moment, he had become the boy again.
The North Key didn't notice that she was watering the flowers, and a big orange was pacing lazily and delicately at her feet, like a general patrolling the territory.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a pair of strange legs that appeared in his territory, and he immediately arched his waist in fright, turning into a sword-backed dragon, and he was frightened.
The sudden movement also brought the woman's movements to a halt.
She raised her eyes a little slowly, looking at the comer.
At first, I thought it was someone from the North Underworld family.
But with just one glance, she concluded that it wasn't.
Then he looked up and fixed on the face of the seventeen-year-old.
Bang!
The kettle falls off your hand.
The woman looked back at him blankly.
Even if she hadn't seen her for ten years, how could she not recognize who the boy was, how could she forget this feeling of being connected by blood?
The young man in Bai Yu's body completely controlled his body.
For so long, the boy remained asleep, as if he had completely disappeared.
He can rest assured that everything will be handed over to Bai Yu, but only this wish is the biggest obsession he has left.
The mother, who disappeared ten years ago, is the pain that the boy will never forget, he knows that he is talented, but he still studies hard, pours hard work and sweat day after day, in order to see her again one day.
Now, he has met his mother and fulfilled his last wish.
He showed up and took over the husk.
The body involuntarily ran up, and the great grief drowned the two of them like a tsunami.
Wanderer Angelica.
The boy knelt down and hugged his mother's waist.
Close your eyes and cry silently.
The North Immortal Key could no longer suppress his emotions, took a step forward, opened his mouth, and a thousand words were stuck in his throat, hugged the child's head, slowly bent down, and wept silently.
Bai Yu sat in the sea of consciousness and watched this scene silently.
At the door of the greenhouse, Shang Ming'e also wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
A reunion after a decade of absence.
Crossed layers of dangers.
Along the way, many difficulties have been made.
Luckily, it's not too late.
Luckily, all good things happened in time.
