When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!

When Xu Baiyu was taken away, Xu Yuqiong didn't know how long she listened at the door of the Zen room.

Green Feather beside him asked in a low voice: "What do you think about this matter?"

Xu Yuqiong was in a daze, and shook her head very slowly: "It's hard to say."

It seems that Xu Xinyue is also involved in this matter.

But she just couldn't figure out the truth behind the assassination of Prince Rong and Princess Rong.

It certainly looked like Xu Baiyu's work, but if it was really as Xu Baiyu said, that Xianyue had deliberately created an illusion to disguise the facts, then it would be too horrible.

She had never appeared in Xu's house before, and even her face showed no sign of being involved. It was unclear when and how she had done this.

Xu Yuqiong's mind was full of thoughts, but she kept muttering:

"This Xu Xianyue should not be underestimated."

We've been watching for so long, but we haven't heard anything.

The case in the Xu Mansion seemed to have been solved for the time being, but Liu Ming still had no clue about the assassination of Prince Rong and Princess Rong.

It was as if someone had deliberately wiped out all traces, so where should he start investigating?

Liu Ming was so depressed that he tossed and turned in bed, sighing.

He couldn't get any useful clues out of Xu Baiyu's mouth for the time being, and he was almost going bald because of this.

Looking at the bright moon hanging high outside the window, he sighed again.

In the silence of the night, beneath the shadows of the temples, a few short bird calls float in the sky.

Xu Yuqiong and Lu Yu were just about to go to bed when they heard the sound. Their expressions immediately became serious. They immediately stood up, dressed again, covered their faces, and quietly went outside to look for the direction where the birds were singing.

Lonely and deserted place

Xu Yuqiong and Lu Yu bowed and saluted: "Master."

The figure called "Master" was wearing a black cloak and had half his black hair tied up, but his face was hidden in the heavy shadows and could not be seen clearly.

When he was about to speak, he couldn't help but gasp in his throat, but when he tried hard to suppress it, it turned into a series of muffled coughs.

Xu Yuqiong raised her head slightly, with a worried look on her face: "Master, you——"

The man waved his hand: "It's OK, it's already very good."

He added: "I already know about the Puji Temple incident. The Xu family's misfortune will not affect our plan."

Xu Yuqiong lowered her eyes and said, "But Yang is Xu Mingxi's mother. Logically, she should be in mourning. If she is in mourning, even if it won't be a hindrance, won't it delay our plan?"

"Does the master want to think of another way?"

The man shook his head: "Xu Mingxi's wedding is the fastest and most convenient way at the moment.

Although I have my mother's filial piety, I am just a servant girl. How can I easily change the royal wedding date? I have a way to let her marry into the Qi Wang Mansion as scheduled. What you have to do is to follow the original plan and enter the Qi Wang Mansion in place of a dead person."

After hearing what he said, Xu Yuqiong felt reassured and said no more.

The man handed over another object: "Charming fragrance, more effective than the previous one."

Xu Yuqiong took it with both hands solemnly: "I will definitely make good use of it."

The man was silent for a long time, and finally said: "I have been searching for this body of yours for a long time, so you must take good care of it. It is extremely difficult to find a body that matches the soul transfer technique, so be cautious and do not damage it in the slightest before finding a more suitable body. Therefore, this plan must not fail!"

"I know that my master once told me that this is a forbidden technique of the Western Shu Nation. I was originally a dying, broken body, but fortunately, my master has shown me mercy and has given me a new life. I will serve my master at all times and will not let him down!"

"Well, it's good for you to know. There are very few people in Xishu Country who are good at this soul transfer magic, so you should be cautious."

"Yes!"

"In that case, if there is nothing else, you can leave."

"Yes!"

at the same time

Qin Yuechuan came back with a few pheasants and saw Xu Xinyue kneeling beside the fire pit, facing the brilliant firelight, holding a book in his hands, reading with great interest.

"What is Yueyue looking at? Why is she so engrossed?"

Xu Xinyue was still immersed in it:

"The Records of the Four Kingdoms."

"Regarding the strange stories about the four countries of Nanyuan, Beixuan, Xishu, and Donghao, I don't know whether they are true or not, but they are quite interesting to read."

Qin Yuechuan washed his hands, propped up one knee, sat down beside her, and leaned over to take a look. He saw that she was turning to the book "Xishu Guoji" and the rumor about the secret technique - witch.

"This book says that it is rumored that the Xishu Kingdom originated from the Wu Clan. The first Xishu King was an elder of the Wu Clan who was obsessed with the art of immortality. He actually found it. Moreover, he lived for more than 300 years and outlived two generations of court officials."

Xu Xianyue said in amazement: "Is there really such a secret technique in the world?"

She couldn't help but turn the page.

"...It is rumored that the secret technique used by the King of Xishu is to transfer souls. He steals the bodies of others, removes their souls, and uses this body to revive his vitality... This technique is against the way of heaven and will not be tolerated in the future, so it will be listed as a forbidden technique from now on."

Qin Yuechuan read to the end and said, "Birth, aging, illness and death are the normal state of human beings. Constantly snatching the bodies of others to keep your own soul alive is indeed shameful. No wonder it is listed as a forbidden technique."

"Is there no way to eliminate it?" Xu Xinyue was curious and continued to flip through the book, but she saw no mention of any way to eliminate it. She was a little disappointed. "It has no beginning but no end. It's really disappointing. It seems that its authenticity needs to be verified."

Qin Yuechuan chuckled: "When did Yueyue become interested in these anecdotes?"

"It's not really my interest, but I occasionally read it and find it interesting. Since ancient times, the 'art of longevity' has been pursued by every dynasty. I read in a book that our Beixuan seems to have a similar secret art of longevity, but the method is very different from that of Xishu Country."

"Well, what is it?"

“Rebirth.”

Qin Yuechuan's smile froze, but he heard Xu Xinyue say again:

"Infinite and endless, without reincarnation, isn't that another kind of immortality?"

Xu Xinyue just lowered her head and looked at the book in her hand, and said to herself: "Even if it is like this, it is too cruel. I can only be trapped in the same life for life after life... If it is smooth, it is fine, but if it is bumpy... This is not the art of immortality, it is simply a nightmare."

Xu Xinyue flipped back several pages:

"...I knew it, just like the Xishu secret technique, there is no beginning or end, no method to resolve it...so boring, it ruins my mood."

Xu Xinyue muttered to herself for a long time, but Qin Yuechuan didn't respond. She looked up and saw that he had a dazed look, as if thinking about something.

"Qin Yuechuan, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Yuechuan murmured: "I can only be trapped in the same life and continue to reincarnate for generations..."

Xu Xinyue looked at his dazed look and pushed him: "It's just a legend, not the real Qin Yuechuan. I don't know whether the Xishu secret technique is true or not, so this rebirth theory is not necessarily true."

Qin Yuechuan came back to his senses and looked at Xu Xinyue intently.

Does that mean that I will meet Yueyue in every life?
