The salted fish attack made the master carry the cub

What happened back then was not complicated at all, it was nothing more than the fact that the emperor didn't like his father, and then deliberately sent them to the remote Zhenggu City in the name of a sympathetic hero who returned to his hometown to take care of his life.

Qi Tingyi was not the kind of narrow-minded person, he was dismissed as soon as he was dismissed, anyway, the current situation is safe and peaceful, he is a general, and he has no use for martial arts, so he packed up and set off to return to the fiefdom.

Although the current history books and scriptures say that Qi Tingyi's "mistakes" are of great merit, but the young man has always known that it is not the crux of the problem.

The crux of the problem is that at that time, "Qi" was the emperor's surname.

In other words, they were related to the incompetent emperor, and some ministers in the court felt that the emperor was not benevolent, and privately, it was rumored that a certain faction wanted to make his father king.

Qi Wushen knew that it was not just a theory, it was true.

He had heard with his own ears that someone came to the house to persuade his father to rebel, but Qi Tingyi persuaded him to go back.

But those are the past after all.

Looking at the scene before him, he finally knew how that thing became a spirit.

Just now Qi Tingyi's hand was injured by the poisonous arrow wood, blood dripped down.

Chen Yu has always had this saying, saying that the descendant of the emperor has a "dragon spirit" on his body, and he is a person sent by heaven to save the world.

The young man didn't know whether this statement was true or not. He knew that the god damn emperor didn't ascend to the ascension, and his father, who made great achievements in the first half of his life and devoted himself to cultivating Taoism in the second half of his life, didn't ascend to the ascension either. .

On the contrary, it was him, a young man who had always been foolish and ignorant, stepped on shit luck, and rose to immortality by accident, but that's another story.

"Master, can you subdue the spiritual consciousness of that plaque spirit?" the young man Chao Zongwu asked.

Zong Wu nodded and said, "The problem is simpler than I thought. It seems that it is just a coincidence, not because of resentment or hatred."

He said again: "The reason why it attacked the few of us is most likely due to the nature of wanting to become stronger. First force out the spiritual consciousness, and then find a way to subdue it."

"En." Qi Wushen responded, and Ji Sheng also came forward.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" he asked.

Zong Wu pondered for a moment, looked at the two of them, then at the two people in front of the plaque, and finally said: "One person drags the other."

The people in the illusion of the Sea of ​​Consciousness are not the deity, they are all transformed by the spiritual consciousness of the plaque spirit according to the memory.

In other words, the current situation is very likely to be that the Plaque Essence has three points of soul, and at the same time subdues the two people in front of the door and the Plaque Essence itself.

Qi Wushen said with a smile: "It's obviously a plaque, but it smells like a cunning rabbit's three caves."

Zong Wu didn't say anything, and began to assign tasks to the two of them. His original intention was that Qi Wushen and Ji Sheng each control one person, and he went to find the main body of the plaque essence.

Qi Wushen said: "Master, you are still pregnant, the plaque is poisonous, let me do it."

Zong Wu: "..."

He originally thought that since he was a master, it was normal for him to undertake dangerous things.

Zong Wu wanted to refuse, but at this moment, the boy suddenly approached.

Qi Wushen stretched out his hand to grab Zong Wu, he gently scratched the master's palm a few times as if flattering, which made Zong Wu's palm itchy, and a strange emotion flowed through his heart.

Zong Wu subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but was predicted in advance by the boy.The jade hand like a white bird did not escape in the end, and was gently held in the boy's hand, like a cage.

"Master, just listen to me." The young man said this, with a taste of cheating.

Zong Wu didn't answer, and turned his head slightly to the side. The young man only felt that the little mole under Master's eyes was very red, as if congested with blood.

After a while, Zong Wu gave a light "um" and said "yes" shallowly.

The process of grabbing the thing was not strenuous, and the moment he was held hostage, Qi Tingyi, the plaque, and the surrounding scene in the illusion instantly turned into a cloud of white mist.

The young man knew that this thing was the spiritual consciousness of the Plaque Spirit, which was not yet humanoid.

However, he still has doubts.

"Why did you turn into him?" Zong Wu asked coldly.

He still remembers the "first acquaintance" with the plaque spirit on the night of the blood moon. At that time, the plaque spirit attached to a doll and transformed the broken doll into Qi Tingyi's appearance.

This is also the reason why he grabbed Qi Wushen by the neck of the puppet.

——He thought that the moving puppet was possessed by the Plaque Spirit in a different place.

The plaque was silent, and I don't know if it didn't understand or couldn't speak.

Qi Wushen reacted for a while before realizing that the one Master said was referring to his father, and asked Zongwu in surprise: "Master, the first time you saw him, did you use my father's appearance?"

Zong Wu nodded.

The boy said again: "When Xiaoji and I were on the stage, so did its shadow."

Qi Wushen suddenly thought of something, and said: "He borrowed my father's blood to nourish his spiritual consciousness, and now he has transformed into my father's appearance several times, it can't be that he has any different...emotions towards my father, right?" In the end, the boy was a little uncertain.

At this moment, Ji Sheng said, "Your father?"

Qi Wushen: "..."

For a moment he didn't know what to say.

Zong Wu continued: "You can try it."

"How to try?"

"Just a little blood."

If Pianbian Jing really has any other feelings for Qi Tingyi, he will definitely react to his blood.

Qi Wushen realized, he bit his fingertips and approached the mist, just as the blood was exposed, the mist sucked greedily at first, a moment later, the whole mist retreated suddenly, and "vomited" the boy out.

"What's going on?" Outside the fog, Ji Sheng asked in surprise.

"I don't know." Qi Wushen shook his head.

At this moment, a small cloud of mist separated and wrapped around the young man's hand.

Qi Wushen only felt itching on his fingertips. After a while, the mist left, and when he raised his hand again, the bite wound on his fingertips had healed.

Qi Wushen: "..."

He paused for a moment, then said uncertainly: "It... seems to be really..."

Zong Wu raised his chin: "Try to talk to it and see if you can communicate."

"En." The boy walked into the mist again.

This time, before he could speak, the cloud of mist spoke first.

"Come back to life, I want him to come back to life."

"I don't accept...I don't accept..."

"Why did you kill him...why did you kill him..."

The young man lowered his eyes and asked softly, "Is that why you want to transform into him?"

"I want to live... I want to live like him... I want to... live for him..."

A sliver of spiritual consciousness entered the young man's body from the plaque, and in the next second, Qi Wushen followed its memory and saw the changes in the Qi mansion for nearly a thousand years.

When I first came to spiritual awareness, I watched the people coming and going in and out of the mansion all day long; I also listened to the laughter and fights in the house; At that time, the villagers worshiped with tribute.

——The first stop they went down to earth, the poorest village, was Qi Tingyi's descendants who were asked to beheaded but desperately protected the group of refugees, and because of this, his father who had not ascended was enshrined In the shrine, it became their belief.

And the Plaque Spirit in front of him obviously has no evil spirit or resentment, but he does not hesitate to attack people and suck blood to transform himself, just wanting to extend his father's life.

The scene in front of him gradually faded, the young man sighed, and said to the mist: "I also want him to come back to life, but..."

"To die is to die."

He said again: "Even if you turn into his appearance, he will not be able to come back to life."

Human life is only once, and that is why it is so precious.

Qi Wushen said word by word: "In any case, the past can only pass."

The mist might not understand all of his words, but it whined, like a human cry.

The boy was immersed in this short-lived sadness with Mist.

After a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Then can you let my friend go?"

He added: "I have lost too many people, and now, I don't want to lose any of them."

-

When they returned to the present world, the huge plaque with "Qi's Mansion" was lying quietly on the ground, and the gold border inlaid on the poisonous arrow wood was still shining, but the vines behind it had disappeared, and the puppet thread had disappeared.

The plaque lying there seemed to have never lived, never had a life, and this huge mansion also seemed to have not been washed away by nearly a thousand years, and it was still the most beautiful at the beginning.

Qi Wushen leaned over to look at Ji Sheng, his friend who was unconscious due to excessive blood loss before, was slowly waking up at this time.

Ji Sheng rubbed his eyes and stood up, then stretched lazily, as if it was just a dream, and it was a sweet dream.

The moment the eyes met, the good friend was so blessed that he grabbed Qi Wushen's sleeve and asked nervously: "Hey, brother, isn't that General Yi your father?"

Boy: "Yes."

He spent a second lamenting his friend's belated awareness.

Qi Wushen told Ji Sheng's father's full name, and told him that because his family was related to the royal family, the emperor deliberately obliterated this, so in the rumors of later generations, he was always called "General Yi" instead of his real name.

Ji Sheng didn't seem to understand everything, he continued to ask: "So, this is actually your house?"

Qi Wushen: "Yes."

More specifically, it was his home before Ascension, and now his home is in Cangwuxuan, where he lives with Master, but they can't go back home.

Ji Sheng suddenly felt dizzy, Qi Wushen stepped forward to check the wounds on his body, he found that although those wounds were healed, the toxin in some wounds was still there, but the amount was not large enough to be fatal.

Zong Wu also stepped forward to check, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "The problem is not serious, the poison is very shallow, just squeeze the blood, then soak it in hot water, and wait for the blood to dissipate."

"En." Ji Sheng thanked Zong Wu, he tried to stand up, but he was still dizzy.

The boy reacted for a moment: "It shouldn't be poisonous to be so dizzy."

Just now Ji Sheng was sucked a lot of blood by the plaque essence, although the wound can be healed, but the sucked blood has not come back.

Qi Wushen mixed with Ji Sheng and said: "Don't stay here, I will help you go back and rest."

"Okay." Ji Sheng supported his forehead and got up unsteadily, his body was so weak that he shook it three times.

The young man was very worried, and just about to ask if he should carry him back, but Ji Sheng suddenly regained his energy, his whole body was like a flash of light, his eyes widened.

As if he had discovered something, he pointed at Qi Wushen and said, "Wait a minute, I still have something to ask."

"What, speak slowly." The boy was afraid that his friend would fall, or he went straight over because he was too excited.

Ji Sheng continued: "So, last time we met in the mansion, who is that little ghost you are?!"

"My brother."

"Okay, you, Qi Wushen! Tell me, how many things do you still keep from me? It won't be that one day you secretly marry a wife and have children, and I don't even know about it, right?"

Hearing this, the young man's eyebrows twitched, and he glanced at the ground subconsciously, but his peripheral vision was on the master who was not far away.

He took a deep breath and told himself, no.

He and Master, they just did that thing, nothing else.

They are not husband and wife, they are master and apprentice.

"Chicken, don't talk nonsense." Qi Wushen said in a low voice, he didn't dare to touch his friend now, so he could only say a few words verbally.

Unexpectedly, all his reaction just now fell into Ji Sheng's eyes.

"? I remember you told me when you first came down to earth, you didn't have that kind of experience, it's only been a long time, you won't have..."

Qi Wushen: "..."

He couldn't understand Ji Sheng's reflex arc. His friend seemed to be extremely slow in certain things, but he was more sensitive than ordinary people in gossip.

At this moment, Zong Wu stepped forward.

"Cough, well, stop talking, and send him back to his room first."

After being "rebuked" by the emperor, Ji Sheng immediately shrank his neck and stopped asking.

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky have dissipated, and the sky in the evening is extremely saturated blue, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkles on the extreme blue, forming a picture that can be described as thick and colorful.

Qi Wushen helped Ji Sheng leave, walked a few steps, but turned his head.

At that time, Zong Wu's eyes were still on the boy.

The moment the four eyes meet, Qi Wushen sticks out his tongue, mouthing: "Master, Xiaoji didn't do it on purpose just now, he doesn't know."

Zong Wu nodded, indicating that he didn't care.

At the same time, the corner of the boy's mouth curved into a smile, and the afterglow of the setting sun was reflected in his eyes, forming two bright spots, which looked like stars in the night sky from a distance.
