Chapter 98 How to Break the Curse
“I don’t know what Miss Shiyao experienced under the cliff of Yishan Mountain,” Qi Ling continued to narrate in a calm tone, “I only know that after one day, She absorbed a large amount of death energy in the extreme pain, and then transformed into the Yishan Snow Girl, controlling the power of the coldest frost.
"After that, she returned to Qingzhou. It was discovered that her relatives and those who had been kind to her had been tortured and died miserably.
"I wonder if you know anything about myths and legends - those who hurt people's limbs in the world, those who cheat and kill, those who bully others, those who see gains and forget their loyalty, those who repay kindness with enmity, those who are cold-blooded and cruel, etc., will all be dead after death. Entering the "Ice Hell" of the Second Yama Hall, suffering the punishment of severe cold and frost
"So, with anger and hatred, the young lady used the power of the 'Jinghong Pen' and frost to destroy the entire palace. Lu Mansion turned into an 'ice hell'. She wanted to make those gangsters who raped, kidnapped, burned and killed pay the price.
"This is the so-called 'There is no way to hell, no blame is yourselves'."
"And three days later, for some unknown reason, the lady's maid Shuyan also transformed into a drought demon after death. It brought three years of severe drought to the entire Qingzhou Prefecture.
"However, the evil leader Tang Hui and some of his subordinates escaped the punishment of the Ice Hell with the power of the 'Imperial Envoy Token'.
"Although they could not leave the Lu Mansion range, but they built a shelter in the northwest corner building.
“Because of the existence of the ‘Imperial Envoy’s Token’, neither the lady nor I can enter that shelter.
"At the same time, as time goes by, Miss Shiyao's human emotions are gradually disappearing. She is becoming more and more like a god who is in charge of ice and snow and does not eat the fireworks of the world.
“She was afraid that she would forget her hatred and ultimately let those villains escape the punishment they deserved.
“So, she left me and her last trace of humanity in this abandoned mansion, waiting for the arrival of a destined person who can help her realize her wish.”
Gu Xu While listening to Qi Ling's narration, he silently analyzed whether her words were true or false.
“I have a question,” he thought for a moment and then said, “Why does your lady want to keep you here instead of taking you to Yishan?”
The weapon spirit sighed and said with a somewhat gloomy look: "A dead person can no longer be the owner of a famous weapon; and a famous weapon without an owner cannot exert its true power. The lady doesn't want me to help her. , and was buried forever. She hopes that I can shine again in the future."
Hearing this, Gu Xu took out a copper coin from his pocket and turned it around a few times. , while silently reciting the name "God", and then glanced quietly.
Face up.
This shows that Qi Ling did not lie.
Gu Xu then asked: "If I remember correctly, Miss Lu has the strength of the sixth level after transforming into a snow girl; and you are also one of the famous 'Twelve Weapons'. Then the 'Imperial Envoy' What is the ability of the token to keep you out of the shelter? ”
The weapon spirit replied: "Because the 'Imperial Envoy's Token' was carved by the emperor himself using the 'Tai'a Sword'. The Tai'a Sword is the number one weapon in the world, and it can be used for dead souls and magic weapons in the world - including other famous weapons without owners. Great restraint effect."
"I'm just a weak second-level monk. I'm afraid I can't help you with this kind of thing, right?" Gu Xu asked tentatively.
“What you need to do is very simple,” Qi Ling replied, “You only need to become the new owner of the ‘Jinghong Pen’ and cross the barrier of the shelter. The rest, I Miss He will handle it by herself."
"Why choose me?" Gu Xu then asked, "I think there must be many monks before me who can do this."
"Choosing the owner of a famous weapon is not a random matter," Qi Ling sneered, "Do you think these three tests in Lu's house are really set up casually?"
She paused for a moment and then continued: "For example, the test of the 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Society' relied on the young lady's 'wisdom eye' magical power - it can not only test the talents of the monks, but also their character.
"A person who is different from what he looks like cannot successfully write a poem in the 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Society'.
"Just like Tang Hui, although he got the orchid label of 'Gentleman among Flowers', because he is essentially a despicable person - even if he passed the Jinshi examination and was outstanding in learning, he would not Couldn’t successfully write an orchid poem.” No wonder.
Gu Xu thought silently in his heart.
He had long suspected that the flower name tags and poems on the "Hundred Flowers Poetry Society" were closely related to everyone's character and destiny.
Now Qi Ling’s words undoubtedly confirmed this guess.
Then, Gu Xu asked another question that he had always been very curious about: "So what is the third test? Why did I pass it without doing anything?"
"Because Miss told me that you are the only one among all the monks who did not enter this abandoned mansion for his own fame and fortune," Qi Ling replied lightly, "Miss appreciates pure and clean people, and so do I.
"But in this world, too many people have been trapped in the mire of fame and fortune and cannot extricate themselves. ”
"Maybe Miss Lu has misjudged the wrong person," Gu Xu laughed at himself, "I have always thought of myself as a common person, and I never thought that I was very noble. In fact, I came to this house just to ask for something from Miss Lu." How to break the frost curse."
"How to break the frost curse? What do you want with that thing?" Qi Ling obviously didn't expect Gu Xu to make such a request.
It’s not because this requirement is very high.
But because, compared to becoming the new owner of "Jinghong Pen", this requirement seems too trivial.
Gu Xu stood up from his seat, cleared his throat, and said, "In order to treat my illness, my boss went to Yishan Mountain to pick a branch of snow ginseng. In the process, he was hit." Frost's curse, health is deteriorating
"But no matter what, he did it for me after all. If his behavior offended Miss Lu, I am deeply sorry for him.
"I believe that Miss Lu is a simple, kind-hearted and good-natured person. Beautiful woman. I beg Miss Lu to be noble and forgive an elder who made a mistake out of pity for his younger generation, and give him the 'frost melt' spell to relieve his pain. "
After he finished speaking, he clasped his hands and bowed to the spirit of the "Jinghong Pen" and the windless automatic blue gauze cabinet.
The spirit of the instrument stood silently. The ground seemed to be undecided.
At this moment, a lavender flower note appeared out of thin air, and then gently landed at Gu Xu's feet.
Gu Xu picked up the flower note and read it carefully.
On the paper, it was written in beautiful small regular script with hairpin flowers:
"I'm sorry, Master. I don't have a good temper. I always hate uninvited guests who trespass into Yishan. I hurt the Master's heart. Elder, please forgive me.
"The method to break the 'Frost' spell has been written on the back of this paper. Please be sure to accept it, Master.
"Yours sincerely, Lu Shiyao."
