Chapter 9: Earth Spirit Beads

In the early morning, the sun shone directly in front of the window, Zhao Yu was still standing in front of the window and watching the scenery outside the window.

Last night's dream, like a demon haunted him confused, at this time he felt so lonely, so lonely, why he had this kind of dream, he himself didn't know, he felt that he was the only one left in the world at the moment, until Li Xun arranged a vehicle to let him leave for the palace, he woke up like a dream.

A luxurious carriage outside the General's Mansion was parked in front of the door, and Zhao Yi and Li Lu were also waiting outside in front of the car, Li Lu was already waiting impatiently, and kept walking around with a small mouth, Zhao Yi did stand aside coldly, holding a folding fan in his hand and shaking it around.

When Zhao Yu and Li Xun appeared at the same time, Li Lu saw it and immediately rushed up happily, took Zhao Yu's hand and said, "Brother Yu, why did you come out? I've been waiting for a long time, hey, why are you so pale?"

Zhao Yu saw the care on Li Lu's face, and said warmly: "It's okay, I didn't sleep well yesterday, just rest for a while." ”

After Li Lu listened, his heart relaxed a lot, and he took Zhao Yu's hand and got into the carriage, and Zhao Yi next to him snorted coldly and followed into the carriage.

When Li Xun saw that the three of them had all gotten into the carriage, he ordered him to set off, riding a horse in front of him, followed by more than twenty soldiers.

The north of Wuyang City is only half a day's journey from the palace, and the speed of the carriage is only half a day's journey, Li Xun saw that Zhao Yu's face was not good, so he deliberately slowed down the speed, and they only arrived at the palace at noon.

At this time, the palace was very lively, the emperor had been waiting in the palace for a long time, Li Xun two days ago sent the news that the prince was going to return to the palace back to the palace, and the emperor was very excited, so he ordered to greet him.

Li Xun was not only stunned when he saw the long greeting procession on both sides, he didn't expect the emperor to value the prince so much, even if the prince was not his biological son, he really valued it so much, and he was indeed so indifferent to his biological son Zhao Yi, seeing that this situation really had the intention of handing over the country to Zhao Yu, it seemed that it was a wise move to let Lulu and the prince make a baby kiss, but this thought did flash in his mind.

Zhao Yi was not only stunned to see such a large-scale greeting, he had never seen his father greet anyone with such a large-scale etiquette since he could remember, which made his initial jealousy of Zhao Yu sublimated into hatred.

Zhao Yu saw that the person in the middle of the team was his father who was thinking about him for a long time, and he ran up quickly to throw himself into his father's arms, and while he was running fast, he suddenly felt a force suddenly filling his body, and his head felt so painful, so he fainted in front of him.

The emperor saw that Zhao Yu suddenly fainted, and suddenly rushed forward.

Li Xun and the others also hurriedly rushed up to surround him, the emperor hugged Zhao Yu, looked at his young face full of pain, and felt a pain in his heart, and hurriedly sent Zhao Yu to the palace to find the imperial doctor to check.

There were many people in Zhao Yu's dormitory at the moment, but Zhao Yu still hadn't woken up. The result of the doctor's diagnosis was that he was in a hurry, saying that he would be fine after prescribing a few medicines, but he still didn't wake up on the third day of Zhao Yu's coma.

The emperor was very anxious, he didn't leave the prince's bedroom for the past three days, Li Xun looked at the bloodshot in the emperor's eyes, and felt that the emperor had suddenly aged a lot in the past three days, and he persuaded the emperor many times to let the emperor go back to rest, and the emperor rejected him.

On the morning of the fourth day, Li Xun could not survive the emperor's order, so he went back to rest first.

The emperor sat alone in front of Zhao Yu's bed, looking at the child quietly, suddenly he saw Zhao Yu's hand, he was overjoyed, but Zhao Yu did not wake up, he saw an unusually fierce red light suddenly emerged from Zhao Yu's body, like a demon that had been sleeping for a thousand years suddenly woke up, and the evil aura in the red light was so heavy that the emperor was forced out ten steps away.

The red light and the evil qi in the inner evil can make the emperor unable to get close, which shows how much pain Zhao Yu has to endure at this time. The emperor looked helplessly at the young man in the red light on the bed, and at this moment the red light on his body continued to steam, and the red light accumulated more and more over his body, as if he was a warrior preparing for battle.

Suddenly, a piece of turquoise light appeared in Zhao Yu's body, these turquoise rays looked righteous but not evil, and they had been suppressing these red rays, but this turquoise light was not as much as red light after all, and it was gradually invincible, and these turquoise rays were the spiritual power of the water spirit beads exerted by Shui Hua in Zhao Yu's body.

The red light accumulated more and more, slowly breaking through the suppression of the turquoise light, and was about to disperse the turquoise light, when suddenly a turquoise gossip array appeared.

The emperor said in a low voice: "Gossip Sealing Spirit Array."

As soon as the emerald green gossip array appeared, the emerald light flourished again, pressing the red light like a split bamboo, trying to suppress it back, the red light naturally did not want to wait, and was still rushing up, but in the end, it was still defeated by the emerald light and was suppressed back into Zhao Yu's body. The color of the turquoise light has faded a lot, and it seems that it took a lot of spiritual power to suppress the red light, and finally turned into a green light and returned to Zhao Yu's body and disappeared.

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the red light and green light dissipating in the sky above Zhao Yu, and he said in his heart: "Finally, the formation left by the Shui Hua Immortal is here, otherwise Yu'er may be in danger today." Although the red light has been suppressed back, the turquoise light is much weaker than before, and if it continues like this, it is estimated that the time for the explosion of Yu'er's demon god's physique will be earlier. He really couldn't figure it out, Zhao Yu went to practice Buddhism, and it stands to reason that the evil qi in his body would weaken a lot, why the red light was several times stronger than before.

Naturally, he couldn't know this, the reason why the evil qi in Zhao Yu's body was so strong now was that he took the Demon Yang Pill yesterday, the Demon Yang Pill can stimulate his own strength, and it is extremely domineering, if it is taken by ordinary people, he will definitely not be able to withstand the sudden increase in power, and he will definitely explode and die.

Although the Demon Yang Pill temporarily stimulated the demonic qi in Zhao Yu's body, and strengthened it several times, if ordinary people bear this power, they will definitely die, but fortunately, Zhao Yu has suffered from the evil qi in his body since he was a child, and with the power of the gossip sealing spirit array cast by Shui Hua, he was saved from death.

"Water, water" A low voice woke up the thinking emperor, at this time the subordinates had all retreated, he didn't care about his identity, and hurriedly found a cup to pour water for Zhao Yu, when the groggy Zhao Yu drank a lot of water, he breathed a sigh of relief, and fell asleep again, with a smile on his face.

The emperor saw that the prince's condition at this time was much better than before, the pain on his face was much less, and his face was not as pale as before, knowing that Yu'er had survived the difficulties this time, but next time, would he still have such luck, when he thought of the next time, he had a cold sweat on his body, and he paced around the room, as if thinking about a very difficult question.

Zhao Yu's situation was much better next, and the emperor asked the imperial doctor to show him, and the imperial doctor diagnosed that the prince's body had recovered, but he was too weak, and he re-prescribed a few recuperation medicines and retreated, and the emperor arranged for a few palace maids to take good care of the prince, and he left Zhao Yu's dormitory on his own.

In a dark room, the emperor is kneeling in front of a statue at this moment, as if he is silently praying, as if atoning for his sins. His voice was very low, as if he was speaking to the statue, and as if he was talking to himself, but he could still be heard muttering: "Ancestors, unfilial children are forced to disobey the ancestors' teachings today and use the Earth Spirit Bead." Speaking of this, his own voice suddenly lowered, as if this decision could still be decided, and he could still clearly remember the ancestral precept in his head now: The children of the Zhao family must not cultivate the ancestral Earth Spirit Bead and the Thick Earth Secret Method. He silently recited the ancestral teachings over and over again.

The children of the Zhao family, the children of the Zhao family are not allowed to cultivate. He suddenly felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and his hands were excited, Yu'er was not a child of the Zhao family, his surname was Li.

Thirty years have passed since this happened, but I still remember it vividly, as vividly as yesterday.

Thirty years ago, the children of the Zhao family suddenly suffered a catastrophe, and the Zhao family was left with only the emperor himself who was seriously injured and escaped.

Who knew that one night more than ten years ago, Lilong came back again, when he was dying, extremely injured, and still holding a baby less than a full year old in his arms.

Li Long hoped that the emperor would take good care of this child for the sake of saving his life in the past, saying that this child was the last bloodline of their clan.

The emperor saw the life-saving grace in the past, so he took in the baby, and Li Long explained a few things, and then returned to heaven.

The emperor promised to raise this baby well because of his old feelings, or it may be that he had the same experience with this child, the emperor loves and treats it as his own, and that baby is today's Zhao Yu.

The emperor took a deep breath, woke up from the emotion of recalling the past, and made a decision, since Yu'er was not a child of the Zhao family, his own actions were naturally not contrary to the ancestral teachings.

In the past, the Zhao family was tragically wiped out and its bloodline was cut off, but fortunately Li Long rescued him, and today he must keep the Li family no matter what, in order to thank him for the heavy grace of the past. He thought of wishing that the underground spirits of his ancestors would be able to understand his own actions, and when he thought of this, his heart was a little lighter.

In the next few days, Zhao Yu's physical strength gradually recovered under the prescription, and his face was much more ruddy.

He had never been to such a secret room in the palace, not to mention that he had never heard of such a secret room in the palace. Looking at my father's style, it seems that there are particularly important things to explain today.

The emperor seemed to be in a heavy mood at this time, and he placed a few pillars of incense in front of a statue and bowed a few times, and then ordered Zhao Yu to kneel down with the politeness of an order.

Zhao Yu had never seen his father look like this, and he thought that this statue was his ancestor, so he knelt down very happily.

Zhao Yu bowed three times and bowed to the statue according to his father's instructions.

After Zhao Yu finished his salute, the emperor took out a box from behind the statue. He took out a yellow scroll from the box and handed it to Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu took it inexplicably, and the three big characters on the cover of the scroll should be "Thick Soil".

Zhao Yu saw that the ancient scroll was yellow, and it was a few years old, and he thought it should be an ancestral heirloom.

The emperor ordered Zhao Yu to memorize all the words in the ancient scroll.

The contents of the ancient scrolls are all the methods of absorbing true qi, and Zhao Yu is confused, but fortunately, there are not many words in the ancient scrolls, only a thousand words. Although the text of the ancient scroll is awkward, it is much smoother than the Buddhist scriptures.

Zhao Yu has been learning things like the Book of Poetry since he was a child, and he memorized it by heart in less than an hour.

Seeing that Zhao Yu had memorized all the words of the ancient scroll, the emperor put the ancient scroll back into the box and took out another box from the back.

The emperor took out a bead with a whole body of earth yellow from it, and told Zhao Yu that the bead was called the Earth Spirit Bead, and asked him to collect it well.

The emperor told him that the ancient scroll secret method of thick earth must be practiced every day, not in front of people, but only in the dead of night, so as not to worry about his life.

"Thick Earth Decision" is the secret method of driving the Earth Spirit Bead, and when "Thick Earth Decision" is successful, he can control the Earth Spirit Bead, and tell him that he can't use it until his life is in danger.

Zhao Yu wrote them down one by one, put away the earth spirit beads closely, and kowtowed a few more times in front of the statue. The emperor asked Zhao Yu to make a heavy oath in front of the statue: "Don't kill innocents indiscriminately."

Zhao Yu felt inexplicable, feeling that what happened today was incredible, but he still swore a heavy oath according to his father's wishes.

When the emperor saw that he had finished his oath, he told him not to tell anyone about the day, lest there be any misfortune, and then he sent him out of the secret room and left him alone to rest in his bedchamber.

After Zhao Yu left, the emperor waved his right hand, and a black flame turned the two boxes on the ground into ashes.

The thousand-year-old scroll of "The Decision of the Thick Earth" was destroyed.

After doing all this, the emperor's face became even heavier, and he said to himself, "I hope what I did is right", and then he knelt alone in front of the statue to forgive his ancestors, but the statue did not respond to any of its movements, and the secret room returned to its former tranquility, only a little cigarette slowly drifted away in the secret room alone.
