hermit meets king

"Mm." The old man picked up the forehead band that was put aside, and kindly tied it on the child. "Children, let's have a meal first, you must be hungry."

A group of servants entered one after another, and the originally empty table was instantly filled with all kinds of dishes.

It can be seen that there must be everyone here.When Xu Taiyan saw the costumes of the servants and the dishes on the plates, he was even more sure that this was Si Kou Kingdom.

"Come on, kid, let's chat while eating. If you have any doubts or don't understand, just ask me." The old man led the kid to the table, arranged the bowls and chopsticks for him, and took the food.

Xu Taiyan sat at the table, eating with his head down, silent.

"Son, do you know the records about forehead eyes or three-way eyes 500 years ago?" the old man asked while looking at the child who was eating.

"I don't remember." Xu Taiyan responded sullenly with food stuffed in his mouth, with a blank expression on his face.

"It doesn't matter if you don't remember, you just need to know that the third eye is not a good thing, we will help you become a normal person," said the old man.

After Xu Taiyan finished his meal, he said that he wanted to go out to bask in the sun, but the old man stopped him on the grounds that he was still ill and couldn't blow the wind.

I can't even leave the door. Is this under house arrest?Xu Taiyan lay on the bed, thinking dully.Touching the eyes on his forehead, how could he not know the curse of the three-way eye.

I have seen ancient records in Zangshu Pavilion.And this should be a major event that everyone in the world knows.

In Haoyuan Kingdom, enshrining the ancestors of the new people is the most important thing, even the belief of the whole people.Or it can be said that the whole world is begging that the evil of the three-way eye will not appear again.

Thousands of years ago, people in the world had three eyes, and the third eye was the three-linked eye between the eyebrows and the forehead.

Look at the imaginary and the shape.There are often those with high aptitude who, after practicing, can see the immortal form, ghost energy and animal way.

However, the human world is too powerful and disturbs the balance of heaven.The world began to move mountains and seas, severe droughts and floods, and the people were in dire straits.

The immortal of Ulqi Mountain prayed to the gods and asked, "Day, this is a calamity in life."Among all living beings, human beings have violated the heavenly bundle and should be destroyed.

If you want the common people to escape this catastrophe, you need to close the three-way eye.It is necessary for people not to have three eyes.

Mingshan came out with a magic sword, the Abi sword, and the emperor ordered people to refine it and black iron, build thousands of black iron rods, and distribute them to all counties.

No matter men, women, old or young, all eyes must be closed. The government directly arranged for all personnel to go to the government to burn their foreheads and eyes with red-hot black iron rods. The speed was extremely fast, and within ten days, everyone in the world was blinded.It was only then that the mountains and rivers in the world gradually leveled off, and the mountains and rivers no longer moved across the sea.But there are still natural disasters and man-made disasters.

Later, there were newborns, all of whom were scalded and blinded at birth.After 33 generations, a woman gave birth to a baby boy with smooth forehead and only eyes.

The whole country celebrates it and regards it as the ancestor of the new generation.Even the emperor respected him and respected him a lot.

The newborn babies born gradually in the world have both eyes.Only then will the mountains not move, the fields will not shake, the sea will be level, the people's livelihood will be stable, and they will start to reproduce.

It is recorded later that the ancestor of the newcomer was only 25 years old, and was asked by later generations to protect the immortal body and was buried in Mingshan.

At the same time, no more three-eye babies were born in the world, and the government took back the black iron rods that had served for 33 generations in the world.

The fire burned for ninety-nine and eighty-one days, the black iron melted, and the Abi sword was recast.He was buried with Xinrenzu in the tomb of Xinrenzu in Mingshan.

After successive emperors, the important part of the succession ceremony must be saluted in the tomb of the newcomer's ancestors.

Xu Taiyan sat in front of the mirror, looking at the third eye on his forehead.I don't know what to do.

It is recorded in ancient books that thousands of years ago, people in the world had three eyes.Disaster.

After 500 years, people don't have a third eye.So stable for 500 years.What does the sudden appearance of the third eye mean?

Besides, father, mother, maybe he should die, so why are they here?

Xu Taiyan, who is only 13 years old, finds it difficult to accept these sudden changes.He didn't know how many unknowns and dangers were waiting for him in this situation.

What is happening now is beyond his imagination and acceptance, not to mention that it is still in the enemy's territory.Must escape, and father and mother, whether they are still alive.

When I think of my father and mother, I feel a burst of sadness. If they are still alive like me, even if they are in a certain corner, then I will definitely find them.

Xu Taiyan has been in panic for three days.On the third day, the old man came again.

The old man took him to a place, and at first Xu Taiyan followed him silently.Arrived at a place similar to a sacrificial altar.

The old man asked him to lie down, and said soothingly, "Son, we will seal your forehead eyes, and you can act like a normal person."

On the large and cold crystal bed, there is an old man with gray beard and gray hair, and a mysterious woman behind the old man.Everything this strange made Xu Taiyan feel frightened and uneasy.

Xu Taiyan looked around, it was empty and there was no one else.

Nervous in his heart, Xu Taiyan swallowed, taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he broke free from the old man's hand holding him, and ran towards the door instead.No matter what, escape first and then talk.

But before he ran a few steps, he was caught by a servant who appeared inexplicably.Forcibly grabbing Xu Taiyan in front of the old man, the mysterious woman stabbed down with one hand, Xu Taiyan's vision went dark, his consciousness gradually blurred, and finally he lost consciousness at all.

When Xu Taiyan woke up with a start, it was still that room that caught his eye.In a panic, he touched his forehead with his hand, and it turned out to be as smooth as an ordinary person, without any traces.

Quickly rushed out of bed, came to the mirror, saw the person in the mirror, but it was like an ordinary person, with two eyes and one mouth, very normal.

For a moment, Xu Taiyan didn't know whether to be happy or sad. The person who can have such magical powers and put himself under house arrest must not be an ordinary nobleman.

You must escape and return home.Gotta figure out what's going on.

But there was no chance. Xu Taiyan woke up for several days, but he was kept under house arrest in this room, not even letting out the door.Can't see anyone either.The old man I saw last time didn't appear anymore.

Now that Xu Taiyan can think about it carefully, it seems that it has not been without warning all along.

When I was in the palace before, I was more sensitive than ordinary people, and I could often inexplicably know the changes in the weather and the nature of animals.

I still remember that the queen mother raised a cat. The cat was very eccentric, and even the queen mother would not let her pet it.But he is very obedient to himself, and he seems to be able to feel his temperament.

Not only cats, they were always bored and bored in the palace when they were children, and there were often funny birds, often chirping in front of their windows, which was very interesting.

At that time, the father also felt very surprised, but at that time he looked like an ordinary person and did not have a third eye.

Father thought it was because I was endowed with psychic abilities, if I cultivated them well, I would surely be a blessing to all the people in the world.Thinking about it this way, when the father was seriously ill, he would disregard everyone's opposition and pass on the throne to himself.

It's a pity that I am not a person who is a blessing in the world, but maybe a person who is a catastrophe.

Otherwise, why did Mingshan collapse when the father and queen mother wanted to pass the throne to him.It was all my own fault, so I brought the disaster to my father, queen and queen.

No matter what, he had to escape to figure it out.

But there is always no chance, day after day, Xu Taiyan has been under house arrest in this room for more than half a month.No one has the patience and perseverance to stay here any longer.

Filled with anxiety, I observe daily that this place is remote and few people come here.It's just that there are about 30 to [-] people guarding the door.

Not sure, after all there might be something hidden.But Xu Taiyan did not have an opportunity to take advantage of it.

But in the past few days, Xu Taiyan can clearly feel that the atmosphere of these people is different from usual.

Instead of the usual rigor, it was more fun and lively.It seems like a big holiday is coming.Xu Taiyan remembered.

Perhaps it is Si Kou Kingdom, the annual grand hunting festival, which lasts for seven days, hunting and drinking every day.

This might be an opportunity, but to Xu Taiyan's disappointment, although the spirit of the guards outside was obviously relaxed, there were a large number of them, and it seemed that they had increased their manpower.

When Xu Taiyan was very annoyed by this, the old man who hadn't appeared for a long time came again.

"Son, you're bored. I'll take you out to have a look." The old master looked at the boy for many days, without the weirdness of the third eye, but his appearance was different from ordinary people, and he was eye-catching.

The long hair is black like a waterfall, but the skin is white and translucent, like a little snow fox in the wild. At first glance, it doesn't look like an ordinary person, but like an elf.

"Can I go out?" Xu Taiyan raised his head slightly, looking at the old man with some timidity and bewilderment.

"Of course, today is a great day." The old man lovingly touched the child's head, but the little snow fox was unexpectedly scary.

Xu Taiyan was asked to change into a grand festive costume.She was dressed in pure white, but her hem was embroidered with a large carved pattern that was a symbol of dignity that only the royal family of Sikou Kingdom had.He was also required to wear a veil so that he could not show his true colors.

He followed the old man out the door, but saw the mysterious woman he had seen last time waiting outside the door.But this time she was wearing a black robe with a symbol of holy light painted on it.

Xu Taiyan remembered that this should be the symbol of Si Kou Guo Guoshi.

No wonder, it should have been thought of earlier, even the leader of the Sikou Kingdom should have been alarmed.From this point of view, it is even more difficult to escape.

"Master." Miao Kunyao bowed to the old man.Looking up and seeing Xu Taiyan in a fine attire, he was startled, then withdrew his expression and stepped aside.

Even Si Kou Guo Guoshi had to salute the old man when he saw him, Xu Taiyan looked at the old man standing beside him.Before he could think about everything, he was taken to a hunting ground.

The flags were shining, the surroundings were heavily guarded, and the middle of the venue continued to emit deafening shouts and sounds.Xu Taiyan followed the old man to a high stand.After stepping onto the stands, there is a sacrificial platform.

The sacrifice hasn't started yet, so we have to wait under the stands.

"Follow me, don't move rashly." The old man turned around and told Xu Taiyan.

"En." Xu Taiyan observed the surrounding environment.It's a little far away, so I can't see clearly.

After a while, I saw a middle-aged man in the costume of King Sko, walking up to the stands.

There are two men and two women following behind. Judging by their attire, they should be the queen of Si Kou Kingdom, two princes, and a princess.

They held a ceremony in the stands, burning incense and offering wine.

Xu Taiyan panicked, he didn't know what would happen in a while, but he had to seize this rare opportunity to escape.

But this grand scene is still heavily guarded.

The stands were a little far away, and something happened. Suddenly, an assassin appeared out of nowhere. There was chaos around the emperor, and some maids and servants all turned into killers with sharp swords.

The surrounding guards rushed to escort them in confusion.
