Chapter 496: Blood of the Emperor
Now, those two people were in ghost state, right in front of him, as if they were in another world. Before he could react, he had already walked to the coffin and found that this special material was actually translucent, so that he could see it at a glance.
You can clearly see the founding emperor lying quietly inside, which is indeed consistent with the records in history books. Although the man in the coffin has passed away many years ago, his face is calm, and even the pale illness in his eyebrows is
His breath was still clearly visible, and his hands were folded flat on his abdomen, gently holding a small wooden box.
Xiao Qianye's eyes were ignited at this moment. He almost couldn't help but want to reach out and grab the thing. Then he saw the person next to him smiling faintly, with a meaningful look, but did not take action.
Prevent.
The first person to stop was himself. After a brief silence, the emperor covered his mouth and smiled in a disbelief: "Didn't you come here for this thing? It's right in front of you now, just reach out and you can reach it."
Got it, why do you hesitate?"
Xiao Qianye hesitated for a moment, with complicated eyes, looking at the thing he had dreamed of, and suddenly felt strangely uneasy, and asked in a low voice: "In the legend of treasure thieves, this is a treasure that can overturn the rule of the dynasty.
They have been searching for this thing in this desert for thousands of years. Even your descendants have been searching for it for two thousand years. Four years ago, the colorful stones from the Temple of the Sun were stolen, and the secret of the underground palace was revealed for the first time.
Outsiders know that they are secretly searching for it without telling the royal family, trying to get the legendary blood and become the new ruler."
"Well, I know that the woman brought the colorful stones and broke the outermost Moonlight Realm, but she was killed by the Moon Waiter. If you go out and walk south now, you can probably still see her body."
The emperor replied casually, without any emotion, but it was such an overly calm tone that aroused Xiao Qianye's curiosity, and he continued to ask, "The Moon God once told me that this blood was produced before you died.
, as a mother, she was reluctant to give it up, so she took it out from her heart and sealed it until now. It retains the original power of 'life' and 'protection', but it has been buried in the underground palace for thousands of years. If it is true,
It’s such an important thing, why should it be hidden even from the royal family?”
The emperor smiled thoughtfully, turned to look at his queen, suddenly waved to her, and said slowly: "I don't mean to hide it, it's just that the time has not come yet, Aying, you should also tell me that thing
The current situation is real, how long can it last...?"
Xiao Qianye looked at Xiang Ji in confusion. The founding queen's face was obviously not as calm as the emperor's. Instead, she had a kind of extreme disgust. She kept staring at this uninvited guest for a long time until the emperor coughed hard and relieved.
There was a tense atmosphere between the two of them, so Niu Ji reluctantly followed to the front of the coffin. Her hand gently passed over the top of the coffin, and it seemed that she was drawing some complicated star map. Sometimes her fingers slightly moved.
If she stayed, the outline of a big star would be left on the spot when she lifted it up again. She painted like that without saying a word until her fingers gently touched the end of the coffin, and suddenly a faint golden light flashed away.
.
Xiao Qianye looked at the densely packed stars on the coffin in surprise, feeling the vast imperial power surging on the stars every moment. It was not something that should be done lightly. Even though he had no research on the theory of stars, he realized it at a glance.
This is the star chart of the Ming Dynasty. Every big star was once a deceased emperor!
This star map is extremely shocking, but there is still a huge gap between the big stars and the big stars. The two brightest stars are undoubtedly the beginning and the end. They are not ordinary big stars, but the legendary emperor stars.
Then, he saw the founding emperor Ming Zhen pricking his finger. He was obviously in a ghost state, but there was really blood dripping. The drop of blood extended little by little along the complicated star map, like a wonderful line connecting all the fingers.
The big stars connected in series, and finally stopped suddenly on the last star. Then, the bright red blood stains began to slowly decline, becoming dimmed little by little, and as the last big star turned into a lifeless one,
Gray and white, the entire star map was destroyed in an instant!
Xiao Qianye took a breath of cold air, suddenly raised his head and looked at Emperor Tianshang who was still smiling in front of him, and asked in disbelief: "The blood of the emperor... is going to be broken?"
"The child's current condition is probably not very good, right?" The emperor leaned half on his coffin, feeling a subtle sense of time and space confusion, and suddenly said, "How old is he this year?"
Xiao Qianye thought for a while. Although the emperor didn't say it clearly, he knew who the "he" in the emperor's mouth was referring to, and silently replied: "It should be twenty-nine."
"Yeah, he's twenty-nine, A-ying, he's a little earlier than I was back then." The emperor looked at his queen, although she looked cynical, there was finally a trace of sadness on her face, like that
The complicated emotions changed a thousand times in an instant. No one knew what he was thinking at this moment. Xiang Ji lowered her eyes next to him, and gently stretched one hand towards the big star at the bottom of the coffin, and finally closed it.
He sighed and said in a low voice, "In seven more years, he will be like you. He will start to show signs of weakness at the age of thirty and die at the age of thirty-six, but the empire will reach its final glory in his hands.
."
"How could it be..." Xiao Qianye was even more surprised than the two people in front of him, "He is still young and can still marry and have children. Even if he doesn't want to, he still has brothers. Why would the blood of the emperor be cut off..."
His words came out sharply, and he seemed to have realized something, and suddenly frowned. The late emperor killed his father and brother to usurp power and seize the throne. Since then, the remaining two princes have avoided suspicion and ignored the government affairs. Although Mingxi also had
The two younger brothers were not favored since they were young, and because of the second prince's mistakes, they have long been forgotten by everyone. Even if the bloodline is not completely wiped out, what's the use of a country falling into the hands of incompetent people?
"Ming Zhen..." Lao Ji read her husband's name with tears on her face, "He is our most outstanding descendant. Without his blood descendants, even the imperial family will become ordinary and slowly disappear."
"Ordinaryness is a blessing, A-ying, there is no eternal feast in the world." The emperor replied calmly, his brows darkening, "Of so many stars, he is the only one who can stand side by side with me and become the emperor star, but... even..."
Even the heavens dare not guarantee that the Emperor's Star will not fall, let alone a mere mortal?" With just one sentence, Lao Ji sighed silently. She suddenly looked at Xiao Qianye and said seriously every word: "Is it Lord Di Zhong?
Why don't you show up to meet me?"
"You should be one of the legendary people who traveled around the archipelago. I remember it was called the 'Rootless People'." Di Zhong blurted out softly. His weak state no longer allowed him to use the Divine Splitting Technique, and he could only reluctantly transform into
The state of the light ball fell on Xiao Qianye's shoulder. Their eyes intertwined strangely for a moment. Di Zhong said with emotion, "I thought I had admitted my mistake. It wasn't until you used this 'Star Sinking' technique that I realized
Make sure it’s really you.”
"Oh? Do you know each other?" The emperor was slightly surprised. Apparently he did not expect that his queen would know the God of War in the heaven. Lao Ji first bowed slightly to him and nodded, and then faced her husband and explained in detail: "I
I am not from Feiyuan, I just traveled around thousands of islands like my tribe. I happened to pass by Zhen Island and met you. I got to know you and fell in love with you. This made me willing to give up the long journey and stay here forever. I
Although I have never met this gentleman, his story has always been circulated in our clan. It is a lifelong honor for Aying to meet him today."
The emperor nodded and didn't say anything more. He never questioned the woman who suddenly appeared next to him. If she didn't want to say anything, he didn't ask any more questions. Therefore, the words left by the founding queen in the history books were extremely
Rare and full of doubts.
But he knew that A Ying was not an ordinary person. When she first showed off the "Star Sinking" technique, his reason clearly told him that this person was not simple, but he still chose to remain silent, except to discuss the "Star Sinking" technique.
The star map was revealed in the art, and the rest was hidden in the hearts of the two of them in a tacit understanding.
Star Sinking, this is a special technique from rootless people. It cannot predict misfortune or fortune, nor can it influence destiny, but it can clearly show the beginning and end. Obviously everything in the middle cannot be observed, but only the two ends.
The trajectory was surprisingly accurate. He was only seven or eight years old that year, and his parents had long since disappeared on the drift island without any news. He was wandering alone on that magical drift island, and met him by chance.
A girl of similar age, wearing strange clothes, like a hurried traveler, immediately attracted his attention.
"You will become the emperor of this floating island." - This was the first sentence the girl who called herself A Ying said to him, like an inexplicable flame igniting some kind of magic spell and igniting him.
Full body fighting spirit.
In the next five years, he forcibly dragged this girl to travel with him throughout the islands, carefully paying attention to the available talents, and using all his scheming methods to use them for his own purposes. By the time he was a teenager, he had already become famous here.
, all his ambitions forced him to work harder. He studied the art of governing the country without sleep and food, dreaming of establishing a stable regime and uniting the scattered islands. And the girl who was forced to go with him gradually became more and more aware of the situation around him.
The young man was sincerely moved.
However, after he finally reached the top, the twenty-year-old Aying looked at the Star Sinking Technique in horror, and felt an endless terror for the first time. It turned out that this handsome young man was the star of the entire planet.
At the beginning of the bitmap, she couldn't understand the vast variables. The only thing she could understand was the two big stars that echoed from beginning to end. One of them started from scratch and stood proudly, and the other turned the tide and finally achieved his long-cherished wish. They all started from childhood.
Showing the appearance of an emperor, he was full of energy when he was young, reached his peak in youth, but suddenly became weak after standing up. They are like a mirror with yin and yang complementing each other, one looks bright like the rising sun, and the other is as gloomy as the dark moon.
, but they fit together so harmoniously, becoming the beginning and end of the Star Sinking Technique.
"You are going to die." At the age of thirty-six, A Ying, who had become a queen, gently held her husband's hand and said this without hesitation. When the island of Zhen was still in the sky, the human lifespan was
It can reach an astonishing age of 300 years, and it is not uncommon for people with longevity to live to 500 years old. However, his queen easily said this conclusion to the thirty-six-year-old him, "You are going to die soon."
It's really strange. Even though all the doctors said that he was only weak due to long-term hard work and that it would be fine as long as he got more rest, he still clearly felt that he was getting weaker day by day.
Thinking of this, the emperor silently stared at himself in the coffin, pointed to the box held lightly in both hands and whispered: "In fact, this thing can not only help you save your loved one, but also help me continue to maintain the emperor's blood, and even help
When you deal with Lord Night King in the heaven, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a sacred object that can shake the royal rule. Because without this blood, there will be nothing else that can save the child. Frankly speaking, the two gods will let go
You came in beyond my expectation, and Mingxi's acquiescence in allowing you to take the emperor's blood caught me off guard. I really don't understand... Aying, do you understand?"
Lao Ji gritted her teeth, stared into her husband's eyes, and said in a low voice: "I don't care about that woman's life or death, as long as you shake your head, I will drive him out of the underground palace immediately! Mingxi, Mingxi must have noticed it, as long as he is willing
If he comes to the temple again before the age of thirty-six, I will take the initiative to give him the blood of the emperor!"
After a long time, the emperor touched his thumb strangely, looked at Xiao Qianye and reminded: "The child has a jade finger in his hand, which contains a person's soul. He relies on this person's ability to transport spiritual power.
With that sickly body, he has managed to survive until now. Is that person your brother? Then you have to be careful. Based on Mingxi's condition, if the transmission of spiritual power is not terminated, he should not be able to survive in his thirties.
Someone who dies when he is six years old, unless...he terminates it on his own or is terminated by someone else."
"Termination..." At the mention of his brother, Xiao Qianye's worries reappeared in his heart. The emperor nodded, pointed to the white sword spirit on his waist, and added, "When I die, my soul will also be annihilated. Unless I can kill him before I die,
This connection is severed, otherwise the transmission of spiritual power will be terminated."
The emperor's hand slowly fell on the big star at the end of the coffin, and he frowned and sighed: "At least so far, there has been no change in the Star Sinking Technique. I don't know if there will be any involvement in it, but if that brother
He is an extremely important person to you, so it is always good to be more careful."
Finally, he looked at Xiao Qianye sternly and asked word for word: "Even if you know this blood is so important, do you still want to use it to save a woman?"
Xiao Qianye also looked sharply at the founding emperor, his rock-cold face showing no flinch: "To me, nothing is more important than her."
There was sudden silence all around. The emperor grinned and smiled. Under such a firm and indifferent gaze, he reached directly into his coffin. He gently lifted the ancient wooden box from his hand and handed it to Xiao Qianye, laughing silently.
Qi: "Okay, I'll help you. If you give up everything for Fei Yuan, then I will also give up the emperor's blood inheritance and help you save the one you love."
