Chapter 387 Princess's Revenge (Part )
Last time, we talked about Li Yi using the Spiritual Manifestation Formation to observe the witchcraft cast on Zhao Zhu's soul. So what is he going to do? Let's read on.
After interpreting Tu Xiu's witchcraft, Li Yi frowned. This was a spell used for sacrifice in ancient times, and Miss Zhao Zhu's soul was pure and suitable for sacrifice.
The witchcraft that Tu Xiu cast on Zhao Zhu's soul was to sacrifice her soul through singing. The previous feeling of empathy was caused by the overflow of soul power.
It can be understood that Zhao Zhu can dedicate her soul to whoever she sings to. This makes people wonder whether this was instructed by Xiong Zhui or Tu Xiu was just being attentive.
After thinking for a moment, Li Yi took out the Panlong Pen from the sack, turned it into the size of a bucket pen, and gathered his spiritual power and righteousness to start breaking the witchcraft using the method of using the reverse pen to break the curse.
After an incense stick of time, the witchcraft was lifted, and Li Yi woke up Zhao Zhu: "I have lifted Tu Xiu's witchcraft, you are free now. Miss Zhao, what are your plans for the future?"
Zhao Zhu looked at Li Yi with a confused look on her face. In her current situation, she was homeless and had nowhere to go.
"It seems that you don't know where to go, so I will give you two choices. There is a Liumoxuan in Qing'an City of Northern Wei. There are many unfortunate women there. You can go there to be a musician and teach the girls there music.
Another option is to go to the Music Club in Linjiang City of Nanliang. The person in charge there is called Zhang Hongchen. He has some means to ensure your personal safety, but you have to perform on stage.
Don't worry, take your time to choose, I will take you away from the Duke's Mansion after tonight."
"What does Doctor Wei mean? I understand..."
"Hey, what are you doing? What do you know? I didn't mean anything. I didn't mean to do anything to you!"
"I understand that Doctor Wei thinks that my status is too low and that it would bring disgrace upon your reputation. You are a rising star now and should be more careful in your actions. My status is indeed inappropriate..."
"Stop, stop, stop talking nonsense! I need to go out for a while, I'm just borrowing you to cover for me!"
"Where is Doctor Wei going?"
"It's not good for you to know too much. You just need to prove that I've been with you tonight. Well, I see you're tired too. Have a good rest and don't go out. I'm leaving now."
Li Yi disappeared after he finished speaking, leaving Zhao Zhu alone to think about her future. Li Yi hid on the roof of Xiong Zhui's study, listening to the movements inside.
Xiong Zhui looked at the screen with Qilin stepping on the clouds and said, "You said Wei Le came to visit suddenly and gave such a rare item. What do you want to do?"
"Didn't the Grand Master send Zhao Zhu to him? We can find a chance to ask him tomorrow and find out. As long as they go to bed, Zhao Zhu's soul will be attached to him, and then it will affect his emotions. There will be nothing we can't find out."
Li Yi could naturally recognize that it was Tu Xiu's voice, but he didn't expect that the two guys were so close.
"Humph, are you so confident in the person you trained? He, Wei Le, is in the Transcendent Realm. I'm afraid your little tricks are not enough."
"A hero cannot resist the temptation of beauty. Moreover, he is a lecher. In addition, Zhao Zhu's pure soul is even more delicious for people in the extraordinary realm. He can't control himself. Did the Grand Master ask me to come here to show off this screen?"
Xiong Zhui shook his head, walked to the table and sat down, then asked, "Have you found out the betrothal gifts Wei Le gave to the three families?"
“It may not be accurate. What we gave to the Qu family is an inexhaustible crystal tomb, which can grow crystals of excellent quality every once in a while.
What I gave to the Jing family was the mining and production methods of the golden nanmu. As for the Xiang family, it seems to be boxing and archery. Why is the Grand Master interested in these things?"
"He gave such a heavy betrothal gift to the three families, but didn't give the king anything decent. Does this guy look down on our Xiong family?"
"So the Grand Master is jealous. We have to think of a good way. The King has agreed to abolish witchcraft, and there will be trouble in Dianzhou again. Now is not a good time to take action against the three surnames."
"I'm not asking you to get rid of them, I'm just asking them to learn how to share. Is this harder than killing the Han family?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the night pearl in the Qilin's mouth suddenly fell to the ground, then turned into purple air and slowly dissipated.
Li Yi immediately used his words to transfer the button that Han Xi was possessed with into his own hands, and then used Buddhism to suppress Han Xi, preventing her from coming out.
Xiong Zhui looked at the dissipated talent and said unhappily, "This Confucian and Taoist Qi-condensing thing is just not reliable. It was supposed to last for three days, but it didn't make it through the first night. I have to ask Wei Le for another one tomorrow.
Hey, do you think Wei Le is trustworthy? I think he is sincere but not honest. I always feel that he has some secrets. How can the king trust such a person so much? "
"He has no ambition to be the only one in power, and yet he has great abilities. Shouldn't the king trust such a man?"
"People's hearts change. Just because you don't have ambitions now doesn't mean you won't have them in the future. We should still be prepared."
"What does Grand Master mean?"
"We have to alienate his relationship with the three surnames! What do you say I adopt Zhao Zhu as my adopted daughter and marry her to him?"
"Don't be ridiculous, Grand Master. Even if you marry him your real daughter, he won't agree. The king also had a similar idea, but he rejected it. I know you want to make money from him, but this way won't work."
"Then we have nothing to hold him, Wei Le?"
"That's not true."
"what?"
"The Crown Prince's Consort Dugu Yue is his sister, and this is his only weakness at the moment. The King's intention is to wait for the Crown Prince to return and find a way to make her the Crown Princess."
"Let a kidnapped barbarian be the Crown Princess? Are you going to let her rule the country in the future? This is ridiculous!"
"What does the Grand Master mean? Threaten him with Dugu Yue? I wouldn't dare to do that. For the sake of my sister, he dared to rip open the chief guard of the Crown Prince's Mansion in front of the Crown Princess.
How about I try to send his sister to you? Can you try to get some benefits from Wei Le?"
Xiong Zhui stroked his chin and nodded, "Since the king intends to make that girl the crown princess, as the chief minister I should meet her. Okay, then you can arrange for her to come tomorrow."
"Understood. Then I won't disturb the Grand Master's rest. Chou'er will take his leave."
After Tu Xiu left the Duke's Mansion, he said to the servant beside him, "Send someone to inform the Crown Princess and tell her that the Grand Master wants to see Concubine Liang. Please ask the Crown Princess to bring Concubine Liang to pay the visit." The servant took the order and drove back to the Washing Women's Bureau.
Li Yi secretly followed Tu Xiu's carriage and finally hid on the roof of Tu Xiu's bedroom. He took out the bronze button and said to Han Xi: "When Tu Xiu falls asleep, I will give you a chance to vent your anger, but if you go too far, I will stop you."
When it was late at night and Tu Xiu fell asleep, a dark blue ghost sneaked into his bedroom. In just a moment, Tu Xiu woke up immediately, only to find himself in another world, and standing opposite him was Han Xi, who was soaked all over, with water dripping from her hair, fingertips, and cuffs.
"Chu Qing, you turned into a ghost?"
"My name is Han Xi, and I'm a Korean princess!"
"Humph, why do you think I'm afraid of you just because you turned into a ghost? Why do you think I've been in charge of the Laundry Department for so many years? Do you think you're the only one who turned into a ghost to seek revenge on me? Humph!"
Tu Xiu suddenly took off his shirt, revealing a body full of curse marks. He clapped his hands and chanted a spell, and the curse marks all over his body lit up with a dark red halo, and slowly extended until horns grew on his head, and extended to his fingertips to turn into a long axe. The whole person looked like the incarnation of Chi You.
The water seeping from Han Xi's body formed a water mirror, and she disappeared on the water surface. In the blink of an eye, she came behind Tu Xiu. As she swung her hand knife, an ice sword chopped down on Tu Xiu's head.
However, Tu Xiu, who was the incarnation of Chi You, did not dodge and directly took the sword with his head. There was a sound of ice breaking and a burst of waves on the water.
"Hmph, where do you think the warriors' iron skin and bones came from? They are all evolved from the martial arts of my ancestor Chi You. My Jiuli tribe is the founder of martial arts!" After saying that, he swung the long axe in his hand and directly smashed Han Xi into pieces, turning him into a pool of dark water that merged into the water surface.
Li Yi, who was watching the battle, muttered, "Fortunately, I let them fight in my world of Mirror Flowers and Water Moons. Otherwise, if they made such a big fuss, I wouldn't be able to explain it to the King of Chu.
I really can't believe that Han Xi, who is clearly a Nine Yin Fire Spirit, can skillfully use water magic. I guess she herself hasn't realized that water can't hurt Tu Xiu."
The water surface was covered with waves and condensed into the image of Han Xi. She looked at Tu Xiu with resentment. Tu Xiu said proudly, "So? Even if Chu Qing turns into a ghost, you can't do anything to me."
"My name is Han Xi!" As she spoke, Han Xi released more black energy, gathered her resentment in her hands, condensed a black ice sword, and then launched another attack. The result was the same, she was shattered by Tu Xiu, and Han Xi also turned into a stream and melted into the water. Her next few attempts all ended in failure.
Tu Xiu said with contempt: "Chu Qing, even in a dream you can't do anything to me. If it were real, you would have died countless times. Why are you still not willing to give up?"
Han Xi was about to mobilize the evil spirit and resentment to try to break Tu Xiu's iron body again, but Li Yi forcibly took it back into the bronze button. Tu Xiu's consciousness also returned to reality. He opened his eyes and laughed, then turned over and continued to sleep.
On the way back to the Duke's Mansion, Han Xi communicated with Li Yi: "Why don't you help me?"
"I only said I would give you a chance, but I didn't say I would help you. Besides, I'm already helping you by giving you a chance to take revenge."
"You can obviously help more! Isn't it the Buddhist doctrine to be kind to others?"
"The point is goodness. Is your revenge also goodness?"
Han Xi thought for a moment and asked, "If I convert to Buddhism, will you help me?"
"Of course not. If you join our Buddhist sect with a desire for revenge, your heart is not sincere and you cannot practice the right way. But I can give you some advice. Tu Xiu is right. Chi You is indeed the founder of martial arts. He and his brothers established the basic system of martial arts.
We in the Dongyi tribe are also descendants of the Jiuli tribe, and Chiyou can be considered my ancestor, so I have a certain understanding of Tu Xiu's skills. The witchcraft used by Tu Xiu belongs to the metal magic, and you can't break it with water, you have to use fire.
In fact, you are more suitable for using fire, but by chance you became a water ghost, which suppressed your fire spirit. If you want to restore your fire spirit, there is a set of Buddhist exercises that are just right. However, you are full of hatred now and cannot practice it. "
Li Yi returned to the room, Zhao Zhu was already asleep. Han Xi came out of the button, and the cold and evil spirit he brought with him instantly dropped the temperature in the room. This was also because Li Yi used Buddhism to set up a barrier in the room, otherwise Han Xi would have been rejected by the formation of the Duke's Mansion.
Zhao Zhu unconsciously curled up and tightened the quilt. Li Yi came to the bedside to meditate, and the red lotus seal of the nine-petal lotus lit up around his body, emitting a golden red halo as the seal rotated. Zhao Zhu felt the warmth and subconsciously leaned towards Li Yi, as if she had found her own warm baby.
"Hmph, you scoundrel!" Han Xi spat, "You are worthy of being a Buddhist disciple!"
Li Yi said nothing, smiled and reached out to smooth Zhao Zhu's hair. The latter rubbed his hand and a smile appeared on her face.
"I suddenly figured out why you, as a Yin Fire Spirit, became a water ghost. The origin of this red lotus karma fire is the deepest layer of the Ice Hell, which is called the Red Lotus Hell.
Under extreme cold, the skin will turn red and peel off from the body, like a red lotus blooming. After seeing the scene in the Red Lotus Hell, the Buddha came up with the method of the Red Lotus Karma Fire. Extreme cold is heat.
