Chapter 21: The Secret of the Jiang Family
"Shinokage......
"What's the matter?"
"I'd like to invite you to my house. ”
“......”
The day after knowing Shinokage's identity, Jiang Che suddenly invited Shinoying to his house as a guest and asked her to go alone, which made Shinokage a little confused, but finally decided to go.
When he came to Jiang's house again, Shinoying had a lot of thoughts, so many things had happened in just one month. I remember that I didn't know his identity last time, and she thought that Jiang Che was going to hurt them, but this time Jiang Che actually went out to greet her in person, which really flattered her. Jiang Che took her to the inner courtyard of the Jiang family, and Shinoying knew that a family as big as the Jiang family, the inner courtyard was all lived by the head of the family, and generally not let an outsider enter or leave casually. Jiang Che brought her here, could it be that he wanted to take her to see the head of the Jiang family? So did this master also know something, so he asked Jiang Che to bring her?
Thinking like this, she was a little uneasy, and before she knew it, Jiang Che had already taken her into the back room. The room was a little dark, with a few rays of dazzling sunlight shining in, and you could see the simple furnishings inside, with bright peonies hanging on the central wall, sandalwood tables and chairs, and vigorous daffodils. I guess it's a simple and elegant person living here.
"Che'er, you step back first. It was the voice of a somewhat old but dignified woman.
"Yes. Jiang Che took her hand, signaled that she was okay, and then retreated to the door to wait.
The head of the Jiang family asked, "Are you the reincarnation of the glass goddess?" and slowly turned around, although the wrinkles on her face were covered with foundation, but it gave people a not very old feeling, and it could be seen that this female head of the house should have been a stunning woman when she was young, with a yellow-brown satin gown embroidered with fine stitches.
She questioned herself in an almost non-critical tone, which made Shinokage feel uncomfortable.
"You are the head of the Jiang family, Jiang Ying?" she fought back in the same unquestionable, if not more condescending, tone. Jiang Ying obviously didn't expect her to say that.
Oh - this little girl is so interesting.
When she stood up and lifted the lantern on the table, she led Shinokage to a wall, only to see her fumbling, when suddenly there was a "kata", the secret door opened, and they walked to the end of the basement, where a sword with purple light floated in the air.
As soon as Shinoying Fang raised her hand, the sword seemed to have spirituality, and flew into her hand, Jiang Ying thought for a moment and said, "This is the artifact 'Chengying' that the glass goddess handed over to our Jiang family to guard, it recognizes the owner, since you can pick it up, then you are the glass goddess, the Jiang family has guarded the secret of the glass for generations, and the old body is finally fortunate to see you, and can tell you this secret." He lifted his robe and made a gesture to bow down to Shinokage, who hurriedly supported her. "Master Jiang is serious, you can't afford to do this, you just need to tell me the secret of Liuli. ”
"The Jiang clan has been under the control of the god Qilin since ancient times, and the Qilin used forbidden magic to save the goddess who was about to be scattered during the first battle of the immortals and demons a thousand years ago, so that she could be reincarnated. However, the forbidden art made the three souls and seven spirits incomplete, causing the goddess to be reincarnated as a mortal, experiencing reincarnation after life, and only by collecting all the glass fragments could she recover her divine power. The Qilin was punished by heaven and demoted to mortals, and the Jiang family was cursed because of this, and each generation of the Jiang family could only give birth to baby girls......"
"But Jiang Che is a boy. Before she could continue, Shinokage suddenly interrupted her, her eyes lowered, "Just to protect this secret, Jiang Che must sacrifice his freedom?"
"However, the old body doesn't want to! Who wants his grandson to suffer this kind of crime! But who calls him the only heir of the Jiang family! The old body, the old body will never allow him to suffer from the strange eyes of the clansmen!! "Before he knew it, he was already in tears. Xiao Ying wanted to push the door out, listening to Jiang Ying's grief-stricken shouts, he was also sad for them. Although Jiang Che said that he didn't like his old grandmother, after all, it was to protect Liuli's secret, so he couldn't be considered indirectly related to himself, so he finally decided to tell her about it.
"Do you know, why Jiang Che is a man?" Xiao Ying didn't care whether she answered or not, paused and continued, "Because Jiang Che is the reincarnation of a Qilin!"
What? Che'er, Che'er, he is the reincarnation of the Qilin God? She also thought about why the Jiang family, which had been passed down from generation to generation for several days, suddenly gave birth to a baby boy in this generation, and this was originally a happy event, but now it is really a good thing within this family? Jiang Ying asked herself, once this news is released, presumably those elders will force the Jiang family to step down for various reasons.
But the Jiang clan couldn't collapse yet, and they still had a secret that they had kept for hundreds of years and didn't tell that person, so they made this decision. She told herself over and over again that she must not be soft-hearted, and the Jiang family cannot collapse yet!
Walking out of the room that was a little breathless, and took two deep breaths, Shinoying saw Jiang Che leaning in front of the door with a sad face, she knew that he had been listening outside the door all the time, and after knowing these truths, he must not feel good in his heart.
They walked side by side, but they were silent, and Shinokage stared at Jiang Che's sad face,
"You better talk to your grandmother, she really cares about you. ”
"I know she cares about me, but in her eyes, the interests of the family are always more important than mine. When he said this, Jiang Che smiled helplessly.
"If you were the head of the Jiang family, what would you do? The family has kept a secret for the Glass Goddess for hundreds of years, if it falls short, do you know what the consequences will be?" Shinokage pursed his lips, "It's better to sacrifice you." ”
Okay, Jiang Che is completely speechless, but this secret is really important, although he is the reincarnation of the Qilin, but his memory has not been fully recovered, and after becoming a mortal, the godhead is incomplete, and it seems that lifting the curse of the Jiang family and restoring the divine power of the goddess all lies in Liuli. Judging from the testament of the goddess of Liuli, Liuli is the key to solving these things, and this time the sky is going to set off a bloody storm again, and countless ghosts and ghosts will focus on the powerful power of Liuli, and his mission is only one, to protect Shinokage!
