Tyrant, he wants to spoil me

Chapter 962 Bringing the dead back to life has a price
"But the ancestor refused to repent, and continued to cause chaos in southern Xinjiang. The empress couldn't bear to kill him, so she imprisoned him in this place with iron chains."

When Pei Qingcheng spoke, Su Jiu had already walked to the bone.

Only the bones of the skeleton frame remained, and it was impossible to see what they looked like when they were alive.

She said lightly: "If this male skeleton is your ancestor, then who is this woman?"

Pei Qingcheng had a lot of meaning, "Yeah, who is this woman? Why did the ancestor go crazy and use Gu poison everywhere? Even if he committed the crime of the world, even if it aroused the public anger of the whole world, he would not hesitate..."

"He's experimenting with a certain possibility." Su Jiu narrowed his eyes in thought, "He didn't use those poisonous poisons to harm people, but to save them. If I'm not wrong, he wanted to save the woman next to him .”

She has learned about the secrets of the royal family in southern Xinjiang.

Hundreds of years ago, the empress and her elder brother competed for the throne, and it was the imprisoned ancestor of the princes who helped her win the throne.

Unfortunately, the empress was assassinated and died in the last battle to force the palace.

The ancestor probably loved her so much that he did not hesitate to capture her elder brother alive and use the secrets of southern border to bring the empress back to life.

It was supposed to be a happy ending, but within two years, this ancestor suddenly started to use Gu poison wantonly, as if he was very eager to prove something.

"It's a sequelae." Yan Zhen said, and looked at Su Jiu's side face complicatedly, "The royal family in southern Xinjiang can bring people back to life, but this 'life' is not without price. Although the empress is alive, two years later The sequelae quietly appeared on her body, and she was aging rapidly at an unimaginable speed, with black hair and white hair, as if she would pass away soon."

Pei Qingcheng continued: "The ancestor loved her deeply, and couldn't bear to see her pale hair, so he vowed to bring back her youth. He tried thousands of poisons at any cost, and even though he did it against the sky and caused public anger, he still couldn't solve it. Aftereffects. The strange thing is that although the Empress looks old, her life seems to have stopped here, and she has no signs of dying in the next three years. It can be said that she seems to have gained another kind of longevity."

Su Jiu listened quietly, his thin white hands hanging in his wide sleeves had already clenched into fists.

She thought of Xiao Tingchen.

Xiao Tingchen also used this method to bring the dead back to life. Calculated that there are still a few months left before the onset of sequelae, will he also...

She shook her head, her mind returned to the skeleton, and she said again: "This female skeleton is actually the empress hundreds of years ago, right? She and your ancestors were in love, so even though she imprisoned him here, she is here Before I died, I came to him and chose to die with him... But I don't understand, you just said that she obtained another kind of immortality, so why did she still die? Did she commit suicide?"

Pei Qingcheng bent down and pulled out a broken sword from the black sand.

The blade of the sword is rusty and mottled, and has long been weathered like a piece of iron.

He shook his head dignifiedly, "These legends have not been recorded in history, they are all passed down by word of mouth in the family. We don't know what happened afterwards, and how the empress who had gained longevity died, we don't know."

Su Jiu was in a heavy heart.

After a while, she rolled up her sleeves, intending to put the skeleton down from the iron post.

Before the fingertips touched her, Yan Zhen had already grasped her slender wrist, "No! They have poison left on their bodies, and a slight touch will cause death!"

Su Jiu didn't speak.

She just smiled gently at Yan Zhen, and then gently took his hand away.

The iron chain has been weathered for many years, and when it is touched by a small white hand, it breaks before any force is applied.

Su Jiu carefully placed the two skeletons flat on the ground, for fear of breaking them.

She took two steps back, "You two are digging a big hole here, I want to bury our ancestors properly."

Pei Qingcheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, and glanced at Yan Zhen with doubtful eyes.

Yan Zhen clearly saw that his face was full of "Is there something wrong with our empress", "I don't care what they do if they are dead", "It's too stupid to waste time here with the dead instead of finding a way out quickly." ", "Why should we be loyal to such a stupid woman".

Yan Zhen silently withdrew her gaze.

He wasn't emotional.

He drew his saber and obediently began to dig a grave.

Pei Qing stood beside him without moving.

Su Jiu was surprised, "Why don't you help?"

Pei Qingcheng: "My hand is broken, I can't move it."

Su Jiu pursed his lips and remained silent.

When fighting at the altar before, this guy was obviously jumping more happily than anyone else.

After Yan Zhen dug the grave, Su Jiu carefully spread the cloak inside.

She was afraid that Yan Zhen's strength would damage the bones, so she moved the bones into the grave by herself.

Yan Zhen worked hard to cover up the soil and piled up a simple grave.

Su Jiu knelt in front of the tomb, and seriously added a handful of soil, "We in the Central Plains pay attention to burrowing into the soil for safety. The bones of our ancestors have been here for hundreds of years, and they must also want to reincarnate. Anyway, it’s a sustenance. After we go out, we can find a way to erect a decent tombstone for our ancestors.”

Yan Zhen silently knelt down beside her, followed by Tiantu.

Pei Qingcheng stood silently in the corner, and as the black sand fell one after another, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance.

Like the sweet pear fragrance all over the mountains and plains, and the dignified and cold lotus fragrance outside the Buddhist temple, it seems to be brewing the fragrance of fairy wine from Yaotai under the moon in the dream in a trance, and the strange fragrance gradually diffuses in all directions.

Even though there was no wind, the dark and strange plants trembled and swayed one after another.

The leaves fell off, the bark was mottled, and the colorful poisons fled in all directions as if they smelled a natural enemy.

The blood-red sky seemed to be a little turbulent because of this strange fragrance.

Pei Qingcheng slowly looked down at his wrist.

The blood streaks that had surfaced on the surface of the skin since birth, the ominous brand that represented the curse, quietly faded away!
Is it...

Burying the empress and ancestors is the way to break the curse? !

"These poisons were born by your ancestors, and now that he is buried in the soil, they should gradually die out." Su Jiu got up and shook his skirt, "It was a blessing in disguise, we fell off the cliff but we can solve the troubles that have plagued southern Xinjiang for hundreds of years , can be regarded as a different kind of luck."

Pei Qingcheng looked at her with admiration and admiration in his eyes.

Su Jiu said again: "Let's go, let's find a way to get out of here."

There is only one way out, and that is the cliff.

Fortunately, there are countless vines growing on the cliff. The three of them climbed along the vines, and it took a lot of effort to barely see the end.

Su Jiu was about to lose his strength, and the white and tender little hands had already been worn out by the vines and blood was seen.

Yan Zhen supported her from below, hugged her knees and lifted her up the cliff.

Su Jiu was lying on the edge of the cliff with his upper body, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw Xiao Weihua leading a group of elite soldiers, sitting cross-legged by the altar and staring at the cliff.

Looking at each other, Su Jiu was a little embarrassed.

The embroidered shoes stepped down on Yan Zhen's head, she put one hand behind her back and gestured calmly.
