Chapter 30 The Forgotten Totem God
Jingguo used snakes as its totem gods. At the beginning of the founding of the country, the first Emperor Jing, with the help of a giant python, led his troops to conquer all directions and conquered all the enemies. Jingguo's country is as solid as iron.
That giant python is Yu Jingmo in his youth. Emperor Jing saved him, and he repaid him by fighting for him in all directions. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he gave up his fame and rewards, sacrificed himself, and became the totem god of Jingguo. He chose a mountain to sleep for a hundred years.
But it has been more than three hundred years since the founding of the country, and six monarchs have changed. Who still worships the totem god now?
Yu Jingmo came to the princess's house carrying a basket of fruits, but felt that it was too ostentatious. When he got to the door, he made an excuse and asked Wang Er to take the fruits away.
He straightened his clothes and walked into the princess' mansion.
A year ago, he woke up from his deep sleep and felt weak, only to realize that he had not been worshiped for a hundred years.
Logically speaking, his body is closely related to Jingguo's fate. If he falls asleep, it proves that Jingguo can sleep peacefully. But if he wakes up suddenly, something will happen to Jingguo.
Carrying the robe, he headed straight towards Xinyi's dormitory. If he calculated correctly, the change in Jingguo would only require the sacrifice of this princess. Because according to the destiny of the country, Jingguo should not have a princess. The extra things should be returned to its original position.
In other words, as long as the princess really dies today and Jingguo's national destiny returns to normal, he can return to sleep.
Xiao Cong was sitting at the door, holding his chin in a daze. When he saw someone coming, he stood up quickly. When he saw it was the third son of Wang Yi's family, he bowed slightly and saluted.
Yu Jingmo nodded in return and said, "I didn't see you come to the school yesterday. What's the matter?"
Hearing this, Xiao Cong sighed: "The princess is slightly unwell. These two days I have to rest first.”
Are you just feeling a little uncomfortable? Jingmo glanced inside and then asked, "Can I go in and take a look?"
Xiao Cong leaned down and went back to the room to announce. After a while, he came out to welcome him in.
Yu Jingmo hesitated for a moment, then stepped into the door, turned around the screen, and saw the pale little person on the brocade jade pillow between the bed sheets. At this moment, her entire face had no trace of blood, except for a little bit between her lips. Yin Hong, his eyes were downcast, and he obviously didn't even have the strength to raise his eyelids.
Seeing someone coming, Xin Yi spoke slowly and said:
"Third brother, I can't get up to salute you. I'm sorry..."
From the bottom of Jingmo's heart A flash of unbearability flashed through him, and he stepped forward Concerned: "Why are you so injured after not seeing each other for a day?"
Lu Xinyi lowered his eyes and raised a bleak smile at the corners of his lips: "It's just a minor injury. Third brother doesn't need to Mind.”
The princess was "slightly injured", but Jingguo won a great victory. Early in the morning, Emperor Jing received news of the defeat of the Yue Kingdom on the border. After two months of fighting, this was the first victory. Emperor Jing was overjoyed and praised Liu Zhang profusely in the court.
Jing Mo heard about this on the road. He knew that the more Jing Guo won, the more serious Xin Yi would be hurt.
Hua Lu brought the medicinal soup. Jingmo felt that he came with empty hands and it couldn't be justified, so he took the medicine bowl and said:
"I'll do it."
Instructing Hualu to go down and wait, Xin Yi did not refuse, frowning, and drank the medicinal soup that Yu Jingmo fed her in one mouthful.
After a long time, seeing Mr. Yu Jingmo hesitate to speak, Xin Yi pushed Xiao Cong away. When the two were alone, she said:
"Third brother, I was injured today, do you still want to "Kill me?"
Jingmo was shocked and turned around with a confused look on his face. Looking at Xin Yi in disbelief, he stammered:
"When...when did I say that I wanted to kill you?"
But before he finished speaking, his eyes Then he caught a glimpse of the injury on Xin Yi's face and swallowed the rest of his words.
Lu Xinyi said helplessly: "Jingmo, there is a lot of gold under my bed. I know you are short of money. You should run away. Killing me will not do you any good."
Yu Jingmo He frowned. Logically speaking, he should have come to give Lu Xinyi a last-ditch blow, but when he suddenly heard what the other party said, he felt a little reluctant to take action. "Princess...Princess, I think you still misunderstood..."
It's not a misunderstanding. Even if he wants to kill, he certainly can't just kill him like Tu Shansong did. ! Xiao Cong was standing at the door. Not to mention whether he could succeed, he would not survive if he succeeded. Once the totem god of Jingguo died, the country's destiny would immediately collapse. If he failed, wouldn't he be more reckless and stupid?
Lu Xinyi raised his eyelids and secretly glanced at Yu Jingmo's face. Seeing that he was unmoved, he smiled and said:
"In that case, third brother, I know that you have incredible martial arts skills and extraordinary abilities. How about we cooperate? I will give you money and you will live a happy life. You help me and protect me. How about it?"
In the spirit of defeating you with magic, how about it? The principle of magic, Lu Xinyi thought, it was not a problem to just sit back and wait for death. It would be better to instigate Yu Jingmo to rebel first. Although this guy is defeated now, he is actually a real monster, almost a god. He can be used as a bodyguard, which not only blocks his way to kill him, but also restrains Tu Shansong.
She has to use Zhang Yi’s technique of dismantling the Six Kingdoms.
Sure enough, Yu Jingmo was stunned for a moment. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Xinyi opened the hidden compartment under the bed. As soon as the drawer was opened, bright and golden light immediately shone out.
What a mission, what a destiny, go away!
Yu Jingmo only felt that he had never seen so much money since he was born. When he fought against the emperor Jing, he went through life and death every day. In the end, he could only have enough food and clothing, and he was fooling him day by day with the interests of his family and country.
What are you talking about? Are there still people these days who risk their lives for the sake of "Tao"? Guess why I work nine to five?
Before Lu Xinyi could say anything, Yu Jingmo grinned and said with a smile:
"Okay... okay... easy to say, easy to say, Tu Shansong dared to assassinate the princess, and his crime should not be punished. !”
As he said that, he put his hands into the pile of gold, feeling that he could spend the rest of his life in this secret room.
Lu Xinyi twitched the corner of his mouth and asked: "Third brother...when did I say that it was the consort's hand, or an assassination?"
Yu Jingmo sat upright and said righteously:
“Niao Niao, you probably don’t know the third brother very well, and Not to mention martial arts, in terms of intelligence, Jingguo is so big, no one dares to claim the first place even though the third brother is second!”
As he said that, he took out a cloth bag from his arms and said, The expression on his face did not change, but he had already used the cloth bag to tightly pocket the gold in the hidden compartment.
"Niao Niao, don't worry, no one will pose any threat to your safety in the future!"
He put the cloth bag on his back, stood upright, turned around and went out.
Xiao Cong, who came back to the room, was about to salute and greet him, but unexpectedly the other party ignored him and only watched Yu Jingmo striding out the door with a cloth bag on his back with a puzzled face.
In the dungeon, Tu Shansong closed his eyes and heard footsteps in the distance, but this time, they were obviously the footsteps of a man. He raised his eyelids and saw Yu Jingmo looking at him with an upright face.
"Why are you here?" Song glanced at him. His face was also pale, especially in red clothes, which made his face even more delicate.
Yu Jingmo temporarily unloaded the package on his back and said:
"You are confused, Brother Tu Shan! Why are you so reckless and take action? You have endured it for so long. Are you still at this moment?"
Before Tu Shansong could say anything, Yu Jingmo started from there. A hand stretched out from between the iron bars outside the cage.
“Where is the silver snake bracelet I gave you that day?”
Song was stunned for a moment and took out one from his arms, and put the other one on his left hand, giving off a nice luster. .
A trace of embarrassment flashed across his face: "I haven't had time to take it off yet..."
"Take it!" Yu Jingmo snatched the bracelet, picked up the cloth bag and hurried towards the bedroom.
In the quiet dungeon, Tu Shansong was left alone and secretly sad.
