After Emperor Shenwu put down the wine bottle, he lay down on the bench in the pavilion. Feeling the cool breeze at night, Emperor Shenwu hummed a tune with some enjoyment. Then he suddenly thought of something and quickly asked Xiang Xiangqi, "Yes." Yes, I heard you humming a tune when I came here just now. What tune is it? Can you hum it to me in full?"
Qi Qi glanced sideways at Emperor Shenwu and smiled softly, "I also learned Xiaodao from my sweetheart, and I don't sing well."
"Ha, what? You have to hide this too?" Emperor Shenwu even thought that Ji Qi had hidden his feelings for the other party too tightly.
"Not really, since Emperor Shenwu wants to hear it, then the little Taoist can just hum it." Zhi Qi knows what kind of reception he is in now, and it is of no benefit to him not to please Emperor Shenwu. In order to be better here To carry out his plan, he could only put down his persistence.
Listening to the melodious melody of the bad music, Emperor Shenwu couldn't help but sigh again, "This melody is too sad."
Qi Qi slowly stopped humming and explained, "After all, this song tells a tragic story."
Emperor Shenwu became curious, "Can you tell me the story?"
Xieqi raised his eyebrows, his evil red eyes showing a hint of caution, "Emperor Shenwu, do you believe in past and present lives? Or do you believe that fate is arranged from beginning to end?"
Emperor Shenwu replied, "I am more inclined to believe in past and present lives. Does your question have anything to do with the story?"
"It has a certain relationship..." Seeing that Emperor Shenwu had not awakened his self-awareness, Zhai Qi let go of his worries. He cleared his throat and told the story of the so-called previous life, "In a country called Gu Ao, there was a A very strict king, the king also had a beloved daughter. The king gave all his kindness to the princess, and then the king got an elixir of immortality for the princess."
Hearing this, Emperor Shenwu laughed out loud, "Elixir of Immortality? Is it so magical? King Gu Ao has been fooled, right? Where is the elixir of life in this world?"
Ji Qi shook his head calmly, "No, King Gu Ao succeeded, and his elixir of life is real."
"Then where did he get the elixir?" Emperor Shenwu became even more concerned about Ji Qi's answer.
Bad Qi replied, "That was done by the king himself."
Emperor Shenwu snorted in surprise and sat up from the bench, "He did it himself! It really has the effect of immortality? And then what? Did the princess stay alive after taking the elixir?"
The image of the green-grey-haired ancestor protecting him and Yun Qishen appeared in Haoqi's mind.
"It was not the princess who took the medicine, but someone else."
"This sounds really interesting." Emperor Shenwu simply walked closer to Zuo Qi and sounded seriously.
Xie Qi felt the pressure of Emperor Shenwu's approaching power, and it took him a while to get used to it, "The emergence of the elixir of life was known to some interested people, and there were many more people in the world who wanted to live forever, so they found it in Princess On the day of the wedding, he broke into Gu Ao's palace and stole the elixir of life."
The face under the mask of Emperor Shenwu curled his lips slightly, "Well, the story is like this... Then what is the connection between this story and the love between humans and immortals you just hummed?"
"Emperor Shenwu, don't be anxious. Listen to the story slowly." Qi Qi chuckled twice and then continued, "This princess was ordered by the king to marry into the ghost country. As long as the princess has status, ancient Gu Ao will become stronger and stronger. The medicine of immortality is the king's selfish desire to let the princess live forever. He is a selfish father but also a cruel king. The king wants the princess to live forever, so Gu Ao Only then will you become stronger.”
"But the princess is being stubborn. The princess didn't want to marry the ghost country at all, so her maid took the initiative to pretend to be a princess and get on the float. Everything went smoothly. No one should have noticed that the princess was exchanged by the maid, but the result was Because of the trouble caused by the people who wanted to steal the elixir mentioned in the previous article, the maid was exposed in the float where everyone was sending the princess off to get married."
Emperor Shenwu became nervous, "Was the maid killed? Or was she taken back and questioned?"
Zuo Qi sighed slightly, "No, the maid was rescued by a young general from Gu Ao. The two of them prepared to elope, but how could the king let them go so easily? The king was furious because of the princess's disappearance. Ordered the execution of the maid and the general.
It was at this time that the young general's body was taken over by the demonic energy in his body and turned into a very dangerous abyss monster. "
Emperor Shenwu felt that this story was getting more and more ridiculous, "So what? How could a person suddenly turn into a monster? Is it his ability?"
"No, there were two types of people living in Gu Ao at that time, one was ordinary people and the other was demons." Xi Qi explained.
Emperor Shenwu then curiously asked, "Then are there any differences between them?"
"The blood of the devil is black and has strong self-healing ability. Therefore, the ancient king used the flesh and blood of the devil to refine it into an elixir of immortality, and left the young general alone to let him Became a medicine man." Qi Qi answered patiently.
Emperor Shenwu nodded slightly, and then asked, "What is a medicine man again?"
Qi Qi continued his story, "People who grow up using various medicines are medicine people. To put it bluntly, they are people who test medicines. Whether they are poisons or tonics, they will try them one by one. Pass.
Back to the story, as a medicine man, he was saved and became a general. However, he was too crazy as a general, and if he was not careful, he would transform into a monster on the battlefield that eats people without spitting out bones.
The young general fought bravely on the battlefield and was admired by the princess's maid, and the two secretly made a lifelong commitment. But Gu Ao has rules. As the princess's maids, they cannot marry anyone in this life. They are the princess's eternal servants and must always obey the princess's orders.
Therefore, the maid and the general could only meet and chat in private. The maid even designed a dance specifically for the general to watch.
However, due to the unexpected incident of the princess's marriage, the maid's life was in danger. In order to protect the maid, the general could only fight against Gu Ao's soldiers. For some reasons, he eventually turned into a monster who could not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. Then the prosperous Gu The pride was completely destroyed by it. "
Emperor Shenwu crossed his arms across his chest, his attitude obviously displeased, "No matter how you look at it, it's all the princess's problem. If the princess hadn't been selfish, this kind of problem wouldn't have happened."
However, Zuiqi shook his head and replied, "The princess just did what the princess would do. There is nothing wrong with her. The source of all evil is actually the elixir of life." (End of Chapter)
