Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

Lin Yushu was stunned when she heard this. She had told Nan Rongjing about the existence of the Poison Sutra a few days ago. If they wanted to find out the whereabouts of the Holy Spirit Talisman, it would be a convenient method to let Nan Rongjing investigate the Poison Sutra.

But she didn't expect that Nan Rongjing would act so quickly and find out useful information so quickly. It was true that professionals were different.

"Waterboarding? What is that?"

Nan Rongjing shook his head slightly. "No one knows exactly what water torture is, but I found out that water torture is also called 'water sacrifice'."

Water sacrifice, sacrifice...

"There is a river that runs across the country of Dongwu, called the Bilan River. The river is swift and full of rugged rocks. Especially in the summer when there is plenty of rain, if someone falls into the river, they will be swept away by the rapids in an instant. However, the final cause of death is usually not drowning, but death from hitting the rocks."

The Bilan River is not only dangerous, but also frequently floods, with each flood bringing devastating consequences to hundreds of thousands of people living on both sides of the river.

At the same time, the Bilan River is also philanthropic. It is because of its existence that the people of the Dongwu Kingdom on both sides of the river can thrive and multiply.

Therefore, the people of Dongwu Kingdom have great reverence for the Bilan River. Every year, they hold sacrifices and throw livestock into the river, praying for good weather in the coming year.

Lin Yushu nodded. She had recently looked up a lot of information about the East Wu Kingdom and she was already aware of these things.

"Water sacrifice... Could it be that the Saint is thrown into the Bilan River as a sacrifice?"

Nan Rongjing's expression remained unchanged, and he did not find such an action scary at all.

"I guess so."

Lin Yushu looked at his indifferent face and sighed inwardly. It seemed that Nan Rongjing was born without the ability to show sympathy. Not only that, he didn't seem to realize the real problem in what he said...

Lin Yushu hesitated for a moment and spoke softly.

"After the Saint was subjected to water torture, the East Witch Country lost the Gold-Eating Gu and the Holy Spirit Talisman... I think these two things must be related."

Nan Rongjing agreed very much, "I think so too, but we still haven't found the connection between the two things."

"Why do you think the Saintess of the Eastern Witch Nation, who has such a high status, was unable to resist when she was tortured by water?"

Nan Rongjing answered after a brief thought.

"According to the information sent back by the Shadow Guard, the Saint is not as glorious as she appears to be. Although she is revered by the people of the entire East Wu Nation, she is more like a mascot and does not hold any real power."

"To be more precise, it is a mascot that is responsible for stabilizing the people's hearts, continuing the family line, and raising gold-loving Gu."

Lin Yushu's heart was touched, and she added that she thought she had lived a very miserable life in her previous life, but she did not expect that the Saint of the East Witch Kingdom, who seemed to be in great glory, was even more miserable than her.

From birth, the saint's life was destined to be a tragedy.

The Eastern Wu Kingdom believed in sorcery and used poisonous insects to treat diseases, which was completely different from the medical skills of the Great Zhou. Therefore, they did not know that their belief in the way of the saintly woman passing on the family line would result in the saintly woman giving birth to stillborn or deformed babies every few generations.

The reason is that if the son of the Saint and the King of the East Witch Kingdom ascends the throne and becomes the next king, then when the Saint's daughter becomes the new Saint, the king and the Saint will actually be siblings, and there is a high probability that their children will be stillborn or deformed babies.

The saint who gave birth to it will definitely be water tortured.

The next generation of saint will be selected from the Black Water Tribe or the White Water Tribe of the East Witch Kingdom, and then this tragedy will be repeated again.

This kind of saying was not popular in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Lin Yushu also learned about it from the Poison Sutra. However, the Great Zhou Dynasty divided relatives by surnames, so there would never be such absurd and ancestral thing as siblings getting married.

Lin Yushu sighed secretly in her heart, and her eyes looking at Nan Rongjing were unconsciously covered with a layer of pity.

"Since the Holy Spirit Talisman and the Gold-Eating Gu are both in the hands of the Saint, there is only one possibility that the Saint disappeared with them..."

Nan Rongjing was stunned for a moment. It was not that he had not thought about it, but he was very resistant to such an idea in his heart and subconsciously tried not to think in the worst possible direction.

But after Lin Yushu pointed it out, Nan Rongjing's indifferent aura suddenly disappeared, and he became fierce and violent.

Lin Yushu's hand gently pressed on his shoulder. The warm and soft touch of his shoulder slowly restored Nan Rongjing's sanity. The red bloodshot in his eyes faded, and he took a deep breath to calm his wildly beating heart.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Lin Yushu continued to poke a hole in the window paper.

"It was the Saint who escaped from the East Witch Kingdom with these two holy objects. At that time, Prince Jin was fighting against the East Witch Kingdom's army in Youzhou, and the gold-eating Gu appeared in your body..."

Lin Yushu paused and couldn't say the following words.

Nan Rongjing's eyes were still red and his voice was a little hoarse.

"It's my mother! My mother is the saint who escaped from the East Witch Country!"

A saint who escaped from the East Witch Kingdom, alone with two sacred objects from the East Witch Kingdom that were enough to attract everyone's desire to snatch them, could have successfully evaded the pursuit of the East Witch Kingdom with only one possibility: King Jin saved the saint and married her!

Otherwise, as he is the prince of King Jin of the Great Zhou Dynasty, no one could easily put the gold-eating Gu in his body.

This matter was too cruel. The Saint was Nan Rongjing's biological mother, but she planted the gold-eating Gu in Nan Rongjing's body shortly after he was born, torturing him for so many years and making his life worse than death.

Are there really such cruel mothers in this world?

Does King Jin know about this?

If he knew, why would he, as a father, sit back and do nothing about this matter, and not care about Nan Rongjing's life or death for many years?

Nan Rongjing had doubts about his parents a long time ago, but now when he heard people around him say this, it was as if a dagger was stabbed into his heart, and it was heart-wrenching.

Lin Yushu looked up and looked carefully at Nan Rongjing's expression, and found that although his eyes were red and his brows were furrowed, he did not look too painful.

"If you feel upset, why not go ride your horse outside and fight with Mu Shang to vent your feelings instead of keeping them in your heart."

Nan Rongjing's heart moved. No matter how much suffering he had endured over the years, no one had ever told him what he should do.

Gradually, he could only look for ways to vent his inner depression by himself, and finally he found it.

Whenever he felt upset, he would dive into the cliff prison, smash the bones of those who had committed heinous crimes bit by bit, peel off their skin inch by inch, and listen to their shrill cries to relieve his anger.

But this time, he didn't expect that the rage that had just risen in his heart would be calmed down by Lin Yushu's few words.

How could she be so magical?

Nan Rongjing pulled the corners of his mouth hard, revealing a forced smile.

"It's okay. I'll be fine if I talk to you more."

"In that case, we must talk this matter through so that it will no longer be a demon in your heart."

Nan Rongjing's heart was shocked. Lin Yushu actually saw through him so easily. His eyes became red again, but this time it was not anger that rose up, but emotion.

"it is good!"
