Chapter 290: A Strange Ban

Wu Dongfang thought a lot about this night, and what he thought about the most was whether there was any possibility of saving the prince, the alien was incomplete, and the soul would disappear immediately after death, and there was no way to summon the soul and return the yang, at least he and the people he knew didn't know what way to save the dead alien.

The sun rose the next day, and Wu Dongfang left the prince's room and returned to the west courtyard, where he found the moon standing next to the rockery in front of the main hall.

Seeing him come out, Stygian Moon stepped up and silently accompanied him to the main hall, "Are you hungry and thirsty?"

Wu Dongfang shook his head.

Coming to the door of the main hall, Wu Dongfang did not enter the hall, but sat down on the steps at the entrance of the main hall, and the dark moon gathered up his robe and skirt and sat next to him.

A palace maid who was responsible for delivering food stretched out her head from behind the arch of the east courtyard, and the dark moon waved her hand at her, and the latter understood, shrunk her head and left.

"Emperor Xia is still relatively thoughtful, as long as the body does not decompose, there is always a way to think about it. Stygian Moon comforted softly.

"Once I've recovered my cultivation, I'd like to go to the Windbreak Valley to find Kisan and see if there's anything he can do. Wu Dongfang sighed.

Styx Moon stretched out her hand and covered Wu Dongfang's left hand, "If you have the opportunity to go to the Heavenly Realm in the future, you may be able to find a way to bring the dead back to life from there." ”

Wu Dongfang turned his head to look at the moon and smiled at her when he heard this, what the moon said was all a comfort to him, in fact, he knew very well that the moon himself did not think that the prince had the possibility of resurrection.

"I asked them to make your favorite buns, shall you eat some?"

"I'm really not hungry, I'll take a bath, you go to the underworld, and ask the Tu clan for the details of how they sent back to the prince. Wu Dongfang said that his brother-in-law was a workaholic, and he didn't come to meet them even though he knew they were back.

"Good. Stygian Moon stood up straight and pulled up Wu Dongfang.

Preparing a change of clothes for Wu Dongfang, Stygian Moon left the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

After taking a bath, Wu Dongfang meditated cross-legged from the quiet room in the backyard, there was a qi tonifying pill in his body at this time, and refining the qi replenishing pill was much faster than absorbing the aura from the outside world.

Wu Dongfang belongs to the kind of person who either doesn't do it, but rushes into it if he wants to do it, and when he meditates with the prince in the mountains, he often lasts for several days at a time, and he starts to meditate until nightfall, and he doesn't open his eyes until nightfall.

Seeing him get up, Shenyue ordered someone to bring dinner to the room, and when Wu Dongfang finished eating, Shenyue handed over two wooden cards, "This is a letter between Emperor Xia and me." ”

Wu Dongfang took it, these two wooden cards are similar in size to the current thirty-two open books, they are connected together, and there are handwriting on them after they are opened, more than fifty words, expressing three meanings, one is the condolences to the Stygian Moon, so that the Stygian Moon takes care of his body. The second is Ji Shaokang's self-blame, believing that he was sealed to protect the interests and dignity of the five clans. The third is to swear never to invade the Jin family, and the relatives and descendants of the dark moon will not be held accountable even if they make mistakes.

After reading the words on the board, Wu Dongfang nodded, Ji Shaokang is not a good person, it is not easy to do it after others are unlucky, and it is even more rare to help orphans and widows.

After dinner, Wu Dongfang began to continue to meditate and practice qi, and in the second half of the night, he took advantage of the gap to relieve his hands and established a telepathy with the rice bucket, which is still in the north, and it is stop-and-go when he is not in a hurry, and at this time he is full and lies on the tree to sleep.

Before the restoration of cultivation, he couldn't do anything, it was useless to think about anything, and for three days in a row, Wu Dongfang worked day and night, gathering energy and doing exercises.

At the second watch of the fourth day, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

Wu Dongfang was familiar with the footsteps of the Dead Moon, before the knock on the door came, he already knew that it was the Dead Moon, during the time when he was practicing Qi, the Dead Moon slept in a separate room with him, and never came to disturb him, and he was told when he was eating or untying his hands when there was anything to do, and there must be something urgent to knock on the door at this time.

Wu Dongfang gathered his strength and stood up, and Shenyue knew that he was up from the footsteps in the room, pushed the door and said in a low voice, "Emperor Xia is here." ”

"Where is it?" Wu Dongfang frowned and asked, he thought that Ji Shaokang would send someone over to offer condolences after learning that he was out of trouble, but he didn't expect that Ji Shaokang would come over in person.

"In the main hall. Stygian said.

"Let's go. Wu Dongfang stepped forward, and Shenyue walked behind, closing the door with his backhand.

There were two Tu sorcerers standing at the door of the main hall, and when they saw Wu Dongfang appear, they immediately knelt down and saluted, "See the Holy Witch." ”

"It's hard work. Wu Dongfang raised his hand to the two, and then walked quickly into the main hall, where Ji Shaokang was sitting in the guest seat, wearing civilian clothes.

"Holy Witch. Ji Shaokang got up and walked over to him, looking excited, his eyes red.

"Emperor Xia, why did you come here in person?" Wu Dongfang asked, Ji Shaokang's hair has obvious traces of blowing, it must have been in some kind of flying bird, Xi Shaokang is an ordinary person, riding a bird is the same nature as a modern person in a shellless plane, not a good taste.

"I am glad to hear that the holy witch has escaped, and the widow is overjoyed, and the holy witch has suffered. Ji Shaokang grabbed Wu Dongfang's arm tightly.

Wu Dongfang helped Ji Shaokang to sit down, turned his head to look south, and found that the dark moon had led the two Tu wizards to the east courtyard to eat and rest.

Some things can be pretended, some things can't, Ji Shaokang's excitement and joy at this time are from the heart, and Wu Dongfang can feel it.

Ji Shaokang is most concerned about Wu Dongfang's escape process, Wu Dongfang is most concerned about what happened after they were restrained by the Xuannu, Wu Dongfang said first, Ji Shaokang later, according to Ji Shaokang, the Xuannu appeared in the altar secret room where he was that day and brought him back to the palace hall, at that time they were already standing outside the palace hall, maintaining the posture before being fixed.

Xuannu reprimanded him harshly, blaming him for not respecting the gods, indistinguishing between friend and foe, violating the ancestral system, and being incompetent. In addition to this, a list of gods was dictated, which was sacrificed by the royal family and the common people throughout the year.

These two requests of the Xuannu were both expected by Wu Dongfang, but the last request told by Ji Shaokang was a bit unexpected to him, and the Xuannu ordered that the people of the five tribes could only cultivate livestock and were not allowed to hunt in the mountains.

If this requirement is placed in Buddhism when it is prevalent, it is nothing, not to kill indiscriminately, but it is a bit unreasonable to put it at this time, because at this time hunting is a means of livelihood for many people, in addition to the sacrifice is also a variety of livestock, at this time there is no such thing as not killing, why does the Xuannu not let the people hunt, if it is out of compassion, why only stipulate that hunting is not allowed, and no fishing is allowed?

"Holy Witch, this is a strong bow that is made by a few people, and it is not as good as the divine weapon you used before, but it can barely be used. Ji Shaokang picked up the wooden box that was erected next to his seat.

"Thank you, Emperor Xia. Wu Dongfang stretched out his hand to take it, and then asked, "May I ask Emperor Xia, do you know why Xuannu forbids the people to hunt?"

"In fact, the ban on hunting is not existing, as early as the time of the Holy Ancestor, the people of the Central Plains were strictly forbidden to hunt, but the thieves stole the country and messed up the rules, and the ban on hunting at this time is just to restore the ancestral system. Ji Shaokang said.

"How can there be such a taboo?" Wu Dongfang asked puzzled.

"What's wrong?" asked Shaokang in confusion.

Wu Dongfang shook his head and didn't ask again, at this time, the people have not solved the problem of food and clothing, how can they not let hunting, not allowing hunting is like not allowing modern farmers to go to the city to work, it is very unreasonable.

"The ban on hunting is limited to the Tu tribes, and the ancestral system does not stipulate that the four tribes are not allowed to hunt. Ji Shaokang said.

Wu Dongfang nodded, he always felt that something was not right, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

"According to Ji Ruo, in time, all four of them can recover their divine powers, and then use spells, I don't know what happens to the Holy Witch?" asked Ji Shaokang with concern.

"It's the same. Wu Dongfang nodded, it makes sense for Miao Miao to choose Xi Ruo as her successor, Xi Ruo is the same as Miao Miao, she has infinite loyalty to Emperor Xia, and she will tell Ji Shaokang everything.

Ji Shaokang was overjoyed when he heard this, "Dare to ask the Holy Witch to return to the summer capital and assist the warp and weft." ”

"When I recover my cultivation, I will go back. Wu Dongfang nodded in agreement, and he was deeply pleased with Ji Shaokang's performance during his unlucky time.

Ji Shaokang was even more happy when he heard this, "Listening to what the Xuannu said, the gods and gods seem to be not allowed to go down to earth at will, that is, they can come and go at will, and the widow does not grovel, the behavior of the holy witch makes the widow very ashamed, and after many days of self-reflection, he finally suddenly understands, my generation is the master of the world, and there is no fault in respecting the heavens and ancestors, but we must not be slaves of the heavenly realm!"

"You finally said something with a backbone. Wu Dongfang said with a smile.

Ji Shaokang's face turned red and he was very embarrassed.

Seeing this, Wu Dongfang hurriedly diverted the topic, "Did you bring the list of gods dictated by Xuannu?"

"I left in a hurry, and I didn't take it with me. Ji Shaokang shook his head and said, then stretched out his hand to the east, "The bird that the widow rode fell outside the city, if the holy witch wants to see it, the widow can go back and get it." ”

"No, no, how many people are on the list?" Wu Dongfang asked casually.

"When there are more than 100 people, Li Mu, Ghost District and others are among them. Ji Shaokang said.

Wu Dongfang nodded and didn't ask again.

People always have to go through some things to establish feelings or friendships, after this incident, Wu Dongfang and Ji Shaokang are a lot closer, no longer treat him as an outsider, the two talked at night, the conversation is mainly about how to govern the country, there is no mention of revenge, in Ji Shaokang's view, revenge is almost impossible, and Wu Dongfang does not want to mix private feelings with official affairs, once they resume their cultivation, the grievances with the goddess and the Xuannu are the only ones left to kill the prince, this is a private grudge, and revenge can not be pulled to the Xia Kingdom。

Ji Shaokang is the king of a country, this time it belongs to the private visit of Weifu, can not stay outside for a long time, leave the Jin clan before dawn, return to the summer capital, before leaving Wu Dongfang gave him a qi tonic pill, ask him to transfer it to Xi Ruo, and tell the Tu clan Danding is now in Fei Xuan's hands, if Xi Ruo wants to alchemy, you can go to him.

After Ji Shaokang left, Wu Dongfang and Shenyue walked back to their homes.

"Is there any prohibition on hunting in the Jin Clan?" Wu Dongfang asked.

Stygian thought for a moment and shook her head and said, "No, what's wrong?"

Wu Dongfang relayed the content of the previous conversation to the Dark Moon, and after listening to it, the Dark Moon pondered for a long time, and then turned to speak, "This matter is indeed suspicious if you think about it carefully, why is it only forbidden to hunt and not to fish?"

Wu Dongfang couldn't think of what to do, so he didn't answer, gossiped with the moon all the way, and returned to the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
