shock! The villain once again turned the male protagonist into a yandere and criticized him like cra

Sheng Mu noticed his strange expression and couldn't help but shudder. He raised his upper body and came closer.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

A slight solemnity and doubt could be heard in Sheng Mu's tone.

But Zhouze failed to answer Sheng Mu immediately. His eyes were still staring at the paper in his hand, and he forgot to blink for a long time.

After taking a deep breath for a long time, Zhou Ze handed the torn paper in his hand to Sheng Mu.

"Look," Zhouze's voice trembled slightly, "...the human grave."

Zhouze actually didn't know that the word "human grave" was written in the crooked words on the paper.

Underneath the words are a series of strange pictures.

Sheng Mu looked at it carefully, and then frowned. The picture above was as weird as the two inexplicable words.

It was like killing a pig, removing the hair, cutting off the skin, disemboweling the body, and taking out the organs... it was very disgusting.

"What is a 'human grave'?" Zhouze muttered to himself, showing discomfort.

Sheng Mu stared at the paper and said nothing for a while.

I don't know how long it took before he spoke in a low voice: "'Human Tomb' is a kind of evil magic that dates back a hundred years."

"What is evil magic used for? A hundred years ago... where did it come from?"

When Sheng Mu heard this, he looked at him deeply. His eyes were deep and he didn't know what he was thinking. "I heard this by chance. Are you sure you want to hear it, Your Majesty?"

"Come on, you're lying again, Sheng Mu, if you do this again, I'm going to fine you a salary!" Zhouze was slightly annoyed.

Sheng Mu smiled softly when he saw this.

The smile was fleeting and soon turned back into an indescribable solemnity.

"According to legend, Taizu had a concubine who was brought to the palace from a foreign country. She was very clever and charmed Taizu into ignoring government affairs and singing and singing every night.

At that time, the people were in dire straits, and the common people were complaining. Maybe it was the reincarnation of heaven. The concubine suddenly became seriously ill, and there was no medicine or stone to cure it. Taizu was heartbroken, and he spent thousands of dollars just asking for a miracle doctor to come to the world and cure the concubine.

However, no one in the world could cure this strange disease. Just when the concubine was about to die and Taizu thought there was no way to save her, a foreign magician suddenly claimed that he had a prescription that could definitely cure the concubine and asked to come to the palace to meet him. Taizu. "

Zhou Ze raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Foreign Warlock... you mean, foreign country? The foreign country that presented me with the foreign dance team at the celebration banquet?"

Sheng Mu nodded, "Your Majesty is wise, that's right."

Zhouze couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression, and at the same time raised his hand to signal Sheng Mu to continue speaking.

"The foreign sorcerer was so sure that Taizu couldn't believe it. Taizu was even a little angry and suspected that the other person was talking nonsense. He couldn't help but ordered the other party that if he broke his promise, he would take his head as a memorial to the concubine."

"Taizu originally thought that the warlock would immediately plead guilty and beg for mercy, but unexpectedly, the warlock became more confident after hearing this, and even said jokingly that his magical method was related to the memorial ceremony."

When Sheng Mu said this, he paused. Seeing the flash of smile on Zhouze's face, Sheng Mu raised his brows.

Those dark and deep eyes seemed to be asking: Why are you laughing?

After Zhouze understood it, he immediately explained: "I was just laughing at you for saying it so vividly, as if you were right there."

Sheng Mu smiled when he heard this, "That's not true. If I were here a hundred years ago, wouldn't I be a monster?"

"Not sure." Zhouze teased.

After this episode, Zhouze returned to the topic and said, "So, what you want to say later is that the warlock used the 'human tomb' to save the concubine."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Sheng Mu did not answer directly, but these four simple words already told Zhouze the answer.

Zhouze said "hmm", his eyes became more thoughtful, and he suddenly asked:

"Sheng Mu, the 'Human Tomb' on this paper only talks about how to... kill people, but it doesn't say how to save people. Could it be that he put this concubine to death in this way? "

Zhouze's last sentence was joking.

Sheng Mu heard it and smiled again, "Of course not."

Then Sheng Mu's smile faded, "The 'human grave' is not used for concubines, but for other people."

Zhouze had already guessed this answer. He pursed his lips and continued to ask after two seconds: "Who are the others?"

"Other concubines in the harem."

Zhouze was extremely surprised, "Why is this?"

He originally thought he was going to make fun of the refugees, but he didn't expect the sorcerer's request to be so strange.

"Don't be surprised, Your Majesty. The sorcerer's words are quite reasonable. Everything in the world is replenished with things. The concubine who is seriously ill looks haggard and her beauty is no longer beautiful. Of course, the complexion, appearance and health of the other concubines must be used to make up for it."

Zhou Ze; "? No, that Taizu also believed it? He was willing to give it up?"

Isn’t the life of other concubines life?

Sheng Mu seemed to have noticed his doubts, and there was a hint of smile in his eyes, "Taizu loved that concubine deeply, so what does it matter if he sacrifices these other unnecessary things that he doesn't love."

well.

Sheng Mu's sideways answer made Zhouze understand again. He was speechless and couldn't believe it for a moment, "No, Sheng Mu, you'd better say it's a rumor."

"Well, the emperor is right. This must be a well-founded and documented rumor." Sheng Mu replied in a semi-cooperative manner.

Zhouze: "..."

Then I heard Sheng Mu say: "Hundreds of palace concubines, except the queen, were all taken into a secret cellar. One month later, the concubine recovered without medicine and became active and healthy again.

The art of 'human tomb' became famous as a result. However, not long after that, Taizu was assassinated and the new emperor came to the throne. This art was strictly prohibited. Even mentioning it for half a sentence would lead to immediate imprisonment. Since then, it has gradually been lost. A hundred years later Nowadays, few people know about this magic that can bring the dead back to life. "

"Resurrection from the dead...?" Zhou Ze captured this keyword.

"Sheng Mu, did you say before that during the battle to seize the throne, the fourth prince died of an illness unexpectedly, and all of this involved his inner circle. Could it be that he was behind the scenes?"

Sheng Mu thought for two seconds after hearing the words, "It's not impossible, but I'm very curious. At the late emperor's birthday banquet, the fourth prince suddenly coughed up blood and died in front of all the officials. In full view of the crowd, it's difficult to fake it, and the imperial doctor also learned it. It seems that he has no breath, is this a fake death?"

"Maybe?" Zhouze blinked at Sheng Mu, "It's a pity that I can't ask questions, so you killed that man."

Sheng Mu looked helpless, but his tone was decisive, "Who made him want to assassinate the emperor?"

At this time, Sheng Mu had an inexplicable and fierce aura of "whoever offends him will die", which made Zhouze stunned for a second or two, and then Zhouze smiled warmly.

But he suddenly thought of something wrong, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly. He suddenly looked at Sheng Mu and spoke.
