The Min Kingdom was founded on divine religion, but Yin Wu, a divine saint, lived a useless life. She was a delicate bird imprisoned in the palace, a cover to rule the people, and even the medicine to cure the Baili family's madness.
She was naturally charming and coveted by others. She lived on thin ice in her previous life, but ended up miserable.
After rebirth, in order to survive, Yin Wu became obsessed with Baili Xi, the only high priest who had protected her in her previous life.
The men in Baili's family are like being cursed. Adult men will go crazy if they have sex in bed. As a high priest of the divine religion, Bailixi is abstinent, and his personality is aloof and cold, until the timid saint comes to haunt him. After falling in love with him, she would fall into the water, be assassinated, and be drugged with love-making drugs. She would call him cousin in a trembling voice, and then confess her sincerity to him every time.
One day later, the girl stood by the bathtub wearing only a cloak and looked down at him. She asked delicately: "Is Cicada good at resting my cousin's medicine to cure his madness?"
His voice was cold and thin: "If word spreads that Cicada doesn't love herself, everyone will know that the saint despises herself."
The cloak slipped off her body, and the girl held his shoulders and slid into the water. She looked at him with a pair of watery eyes and her voice was trembling: Then don't let this matter spread, okay?
Baili Xi began to despise her for being troublesome, annoying, and useless.
Later, he would say come here, come up, be good.
Later, when he protected Yin Wu and eliminated her enemies one by one, he realized that the admiration she said was just a calculation. His eyes were filled with ice: was it all a use? Don't like it now? Um?
Yin Wu was about to answer, but his mouth was covered by him, and he heard him whisper softly: Cicada is good, she said she likes cousin Xi
At that time, Yin Wu realized that what she provoked was not the flowers of the high mountains or the unreachable spring mountains, but an evil dragon that was addicted to lust and greed.
Chapter 1 Rebirth
The woman's pleading came from the bed tent, and at the same time, the men's lewd laughter came out.
The woman was begging for mercy and struggling. Her voice became smaller and smaller, but the sobs of the girl in the corner became louder and louder.
Her little body huddled there, her big eyes filled with fear.
She wanted to save her mother, but her mother told her not to move. She must be in so much pain. She was so scared, she was so useless!
The curtain slowly opened a corner, and the beautiful woman's body was trembling, but she smiled at her and said: Cicada, be good, close your eyes, cover your ears, stop crying.
Yin Wu pursed her lips, covered her ears with trembling hands, buried her head in her knees, and closed her eyes tightly, but those dirty sounds still reached her ears.
After an unknown amount of time, those people finally left.
She stumbled to the bed and opened the curtain, and saw her mother, who was covered in scars, staring at the top of the bed. She grabbed her mother's hand and put it on her face, and called out tremblingly: "Mother."
The woman's eyes moved, and she finally turned to look at her, and smiled at her, "Good boy."
Mother! Yin Wu woke up from his dream, breathing rapidly, and a layer of sweat formed on his back.
The bed curtain was lifted, and Qianshuang asked: Did the saint have a nightmare?
Isn’t Xishuang dead?
Not only Qianshuang died, she should also die.
Yin Wu touched his neck. It was smooth and soft, and there was no gold hairpin on it.
And those just now were not dreams, they were childhood memories that she only retrieved when she was dying.
The Min Kingdom was founded on a divine religion, and all the people believed in the divine religion, with the saint as the symbol of the god. Yin Wu appeared to be a saint, but she lived a miserable life. She was imprisoned in the palace and was used as a cover to rule the people.
But she was born with a charming personality and was coveted by others. Although she was cautious and well-behaved, she still ended up being humiliated and committed suicide in her previous life. When she was dying, she finally remembered how her mother Yin Zhen died, and finally realized that her monthly bloodletting was not for To worship the gods, but to refine medicine to suppress the Baili family's madness.
I'm fine. She suppressed the impact of her rebirth and tried hard not to let Qianshuang see the clues.
Qianshuang did not doubt, she brought a set of clothes over and said: Holy girl, the time has come, it’s time to get up and go to the altar.
Looking at the complicated dress, Yin Wu's heart trembled.
She had only worn this dress once. On the day she wore it, she was assassinated by the Li people. She was rushed into the crowd and almost died, and the dress was damaged.
On the circular altar, green smoke curled up from the incense burner, and the animal cages were all in place. Yin Wu stood in the center of the altar, dressed in complicated and gorgeous clothes, like a beautiful puppet.
She has recovered from the shock of rebirth, and now she just wants to kill those who harmed Yin Zhen and her.
Her mother had been ruined, defiled, and tortured by countless people, and she had never been treated as a human being. Now that she was reborn, she would no longer accept her fate.
She looked under the altar and saw Huan Ling standing not far away. He is the leader of the protector of the divine sect. He has always cared for Yin Wu in his previous life. Yin Wu thought he was a good person. It was not until he imprisoned Yin Wu in the end and wanted to turn her into a forbidden wife that Yin Wu knew his true face.
The hands under the wide sleeves trembled slightly, and Yin Wu didn't know whether he was more afraid or resentful.
She turned to look to the right again and saw Wen Yi. She was also one of the four guardians of the divine sect. Later, Yin Wu's voice was mute due to her poison. The mute medicine flowed through his throat like a burning knife and scraped it, which could hurt his life to death.
Regards, high priest.
Regards, high priest.
The crowd suddenly sang loudly.
A hole was torn open in the gloomy sky, golden beams of light poured on the divine road, and a white figure slowly walked from the divine road.
Although the person was far away, a face that was absolutely addicted to asceticism appeared in Yin Wu's mind.
The man quickly came under the altar. His white robe was not moving in the wind. He climbed up the stairs. There was no trace of desire or emotion on his handsome and graceful face. His soul was as cold as ice and he could not be looked directly at or approached.
If the saint Yin Wu is a god in the hearts of the people, the lonely, cold and arrogant high priest Bailixi is the messenger of the gods in the world, a more trustworthy and respectable existence. He has learned numerology and arithmetic from the former high priest since he was a child. , can calculate misfortune, good or bad luck, and can also offer sacrifices to the sky and pray for rain.
The saint is illusory, but the power of the high priest is real.
Bailixi's voice was low but clean: Please pay homage to the Moon God, the South Suzaku Star God, the North Xuanwu Star God, the East Qinglong Star God, and the West White Tiger Star God. On auspicious days and good times, I invite all the star gods to come to the lower realm and bring good luck to you. Safeguard the country and the people, suppress disasters and eliminate disasters
When everyone was kneeling on the ground respectfully, Yin Wu secretly raised her eyes to look at Baili Xi beside her, the only person who had given her protection in her previous life.
Maybe she could seek his protection earlier in this life.
Yin Wu recalled her past life and wanted to know how she persuaded him to protect her. After thinking for a long time, she didn't expect anything special. She begged several times, but Baili Xi was indifferent until the last time.
While she was trying to remember, a dagger inlaid with precious stones was presented to her, and a hand with sharp bones was holding the handle.
Yin Wu raised his eyes and saw Baili Xi's cold moon-like eyes, and realized that it was time for her to bleed.
The sharp blade cut her wrist, and the blood flowed into the sacrificial silver pot. She cut shallowly, and the blood only dripped a few drops before stopping.
The blood will be secretly sent to Baili's house after the sacrificial ceremony and used as a medicine for refining elixirs.
The children of the Baili family are all crazy. Once they touch a woman, they will fall into a sea of lust, lose their consciousness, and become crazy and crazy. In his previous life, Bailixi never touched a woman, nor did he take the elixir refined with Yin Wu blood. , and since he began to protect Yin Wu, she has never been bled again.
She needs Bailixi's protection.
That's it. Bailixi's voice was cold.
Yin Wu hurriedly retracted his hand, pressed the handkerchief to the wound, and whispered: High Priest, I recently read "The Authentic Book of Divination" and I don't understand some parts. Can I go with the high priest after the ceremony? Can the high priest clarify my confusion?
In her previous life, Huan Ling sent her back. On the way, she was assassinated by the Li people. The guards got into a mess and she was scattered. She was found only three days later. During this period, she almost died several times. If she could return to the palace with Baili Xi, she would say Maybe I won’t have to suffer this pain.
Baili Xi didn't seem to hear her words. He stood by the sacrificial furnace and burned the manuscripts one by one. The flames were extinguished brightly, and his facial expressions were not very clear. When he finished burning the manuscripts, he turned around and left, leaving only Yin Wu. An afterimage of a white robe.
It's impossible to get close to someone like him. What did he do in his previous life to make him change his attitude?
I will send the saint back to the palace. Yin Wu's thoughts were interrupted. Huan Ling was already standing in front of him. There was clearly a smile in his eyes, but Yin Wu felt that he was like a poisonous snake spitting out messages.
She pinched her palms to force herself to calm down. Now Bailixi could no longer be counted on. The worst-case scenario was that she would be washed away again. She put her hand on Huan Ling's outstretched forearm and let him hold her up. Got the chariot.
Looking at Yin Wu's enchanting back, Huan Ling's eyes darkened. What kind of religious saint, what kind of incarnation of a god, is just a beautiful plaything in his eyes. Today, the Li tribe plans to assassinate, which just gives him the opportunity. He wants to take advantage of the chaos to hide this little saint, train her, and enjoy her. she.
The saint's car slowly started to drive, passing by the market, people knelt down and worshiped Shanhu.
A sharp and abrupt whistle sounded suddenly, and the tight string in Yin Wu's mind finally broke. She pulled Qianshuang down and fell down. The next moment, the carriage overturned, and there were screams outside.
Through the gap in the car curtain, Yin Wu saw dozens of men in black fighting with the guards.
Holy girl, let’s go out and hide first! Qianshuang got up and wanted to pull Yin Wu out of the carriage.
In her previous life, Qian Shuang pulled her out of the car and ran away, but later the two separated, and Yin Wu had to avoid being searched by the Li assassins.
Although there were many men in black at this time, it was clear that the guards had the upper hand, and Yin Wu decided not to escape.
Saint, let’s get off the bus first! Before Qianshuang's words came to an abrupt end, Yin Wu turned around and saw that she had fallen to the ground. Then Yin Wu felt pain in the back of his neck and lost consciousness.
Yin Wu was imprisoned in a windowless room, and the only light was the candle on the table.
She was huddled in the corner, like a bowstring stretched to its extreme, about to break at any moment.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and she was startled. She looked up and saw that the person coming was Huan Ling.
She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she was rescued, but the next moment her neck was strangled. Huan Ling's pale and feminine face gradually came closer. He sniffed her hair and sighed: I have got you, saint.
Yin Wu struggled, his body trembled suddenly, and he was startled awake by the feeling of falling.
It turned out to be just a dream about a previous life.
But the next moment, Yin Wu felt a chill running down her spine. She was lying on a small bed with her hands and feet tied up.
The room was pitch dark without any light.
Who caught her? Those Li assassins? Or Huan Ling?
No matter who it is, the situation does not seem to be optimistic.
The door creaked open, and Yin Wu's heart beat violently. A man with a scar on his face came in. He was not Huan Ling, but Di Suba, Huan Ling's bodyguard.
Huan Ling only attacked Baili Xi after she disappeared in her previous life. Why is it so early this time? Why did she die again on the first day of her rebirth!
Yin Wu wanted to cry but couldn't. She was unwilling to give in. She hadn't avenged her mother yet, and those who harmed her were still alive and well!
Ignoring Yin Wu's struggle, Di Subaru carried the human sack on his shoulders, shaking her head until she was dizzy. After a while, she was stuffed into the carriage again and her mouth was gagged. When the carriage started to move, poor Yin Wu Sinking between the soft bedding, he was like an egg in a shaking jar, his brain was about to fall apart.
The carriage seemed to be on the street. Occasionally it stopped, and someone came forward to question him, but Di Subaru dealt with it. Yin Wu tried to ask for help, but his mouth was tightly gagged, and his hands and feet were tied tightly. The people outside the carriage Couldn't hear it at all.
The car started moving again, the surroundings became quieter and quieter, and Yin Wu became more and more desperate. If she left the city, she would completely become a plaything in Huan Ling's hands. Who would be able to find her then?
The carriage stopped again, and a turret flashed through the gap in the door. It should be that it was about to leave the city!
Whose car is driving? What to do? the gate guard asked.
Protector Huan Ling sent me out on some errands. In the car were the female relatives of the protector, who were seriously ill and had to be sent out of the city. Di Subaru said, taking out a banknote from his arms and giving it to the guard.
Huan Ling was originally in charge of guarding the city gate here. Now that he has seen the token and collected the banknote, he will let him go without any further obstruction.
Yin Wu's hands were tied behind his back and his mouth was gagged. He had a headache and dizziness from holding it in. Seeing that his last hope was gone, he could only kick the car wall desperately, but the car wall was also covered with soft cushions, so he couldn't kick at all. Don't make a sound.
The carriage started moving again. Yin Wu wanted to spit out the cotton stuffing in his mouth, but he bit his tongue and the smell of blood filled his mouth.
The despair of the two lives was mixed together, and Yin Wu finally cried in despair.
Who is in the car?
The carriage stopped again. The voice sounded familiar to Yin Wu. After a moment of reaction, he remembered that it was Chen Feng, the guard beside Baili Xi.
She was a female relative of Huan Ling, the guardian of the Dharma family. She was suffering from a serious disease. She was afraid of infecting others, so she had to be sent outside for treatment. Di Subaru said.
Chen Feng didn't say anything outside, and Yin Wu struggled violently again. She wanted to make some noise, hoping that Chen Feng could hear it, so she pressed her forehead against the soft quilt, struggled to sit up, and was about to hit her head against the closed window. , but the car shook again. The sudden shaking took away her strength, and she fell onto the soft mattress. Then she heard Chen Feng outside: Let's go.
In desperation, Yin Wu was determined to defeat the enemy. He didn't know where the strength came from, and he slammed his body against the car door, making a moderate noise.
Chenfeng should be able to hear it! He must be able to hear it!
Chapter 2 Saved
Yin Wu's head hurt from the collision, and he fell on the soft quilt and gasped for air.
However, the carriage started moving again. Yin Wu was in pain and despair, but had no strength to bump into it again.
Wait a moment.
Another voice sounded, this voice was low but very clean, as cold as the morning dew, it was like the sound of nature, it was Bailixi!
He must have heard it, right? He can hear it, right?
However, the carriage not only did not stop, but also accelerated. The carriage shook. Yin Wu's head hit the wall of the carriage, and the rumble of the wheels could be heard in his ears.
Then she heard the sound of weapons being exchanged, and the carriage suddenly stopped. The door was opened, and the bright moonlight shone into the car. Through the moonlight, Yin Wu saw Baili Xi standing outside.
He was still wearing the white robe he wore during sacrifices, his face was untainted by human desire, and his eyes were cold.
When Yin Wu looked at him now, he looked like a life-saving immortal!
The tears that I had been holding back before could no longer be controlled at this time.
Baili Xi turned to look at Chen Feng who was escorting Di Subaru, and then looked at Yin Wu in the car. Seeing that there was really no one around, he reached out and pulled out Yin Wu who was tied into a rice dumpling.
Not long after he left, someone reported that the saint was missing. He was originally not prepared to take care of it, but at night he made a fortune-telling. The divination showed that the saint was in the north and was in danger of death. He still didn't want to take care of it. If she died, it would be her fate.
It was only later that he remembered that if the saint died, he would still have to deal with the troubles that followed, so he found her.
He untied the ropes around Yin Wu's hands and feet, and was about to wipe his hands with the handkerchief when he felt his waist tighten.
Great Priest! The girl was frightened, her body was trembling, and her slender arms were tightly wrapped around his waist, like a frightened deer.
Baili Xi's brows furrowed.
According to Yin Wu's understanding of him in his previous life, this was a sign that he was extremely bored. She hurriedly let go of her hand, for fear of offending him.
Sure enough, Bailixi began to wipe his hands with the handkerchief. He wiped slowly but hard. His fingers were slender and the joints were even, but he didn't even look at her.
After a long while, he finished wiping his hands and threw away the handkerchief. However, he looked down at the spot on his robe that was wet from Yin Wu's crying, and frowned again.
Yin Wu grabbed his sleeves, looked at Baili Xi's robe, and then looked at the face that did not distinguish between joy and anger. He felt really embarrassed and wished he could just faint and die.
What Baili Xi was thinking at this moment was: She should die today.
go back. His Yin and Yin|Tao.
Yin Wu was sitting on the carriage and secretly looked at Baili Xi who was sitting across from him. He saw that he had a cold face. He didn't even have a cold face. The high priest had always had this expression, even when he helped her in his previous life. , also with such a cold face, unable to smile.
High Priest, why did that man want to arrest me? She spoke quietly.
Bailixi opened his eyes and looked over with cool eyes. What did the saint think?
Before today, the two of them had not exchanged a few words, and the few times they had met were at religious festivals, so they were not familiar with each other at all. At this time in the past, Bailixi should have been meditating, but tonight, because of Yin Wu Swinging around in the car.
He hates riding in cars, which makes him dizzy.
Yin Wu was naturally charming, and her face was unbelievably beautiful. Even when she was sitting upright without saying a word, her bones were numb. Although she was a little embarrassed at this moment, she was a bit more fragile and more delicate.
I was in the car, listening to him take Huan Ling's waist badge and Yin Wu consider his words. He also said that he was Huan Ling's bodyguard.
Di Subaru was Huan Ling's bodyguard, and he was caught again. Huan Ling couldn't get away with it easily no matter what.
so?
So it was Huan Ling who wanted to catch her! Why are you so stupid!
Bailixi's eyes suddenly turned red when he looked at Yin Wu, and the annoyance in his heart finally subsided a little.
Could it be that the protector Huan Ling wants to arrest me? Yin Wu's eyes flickered.
Bailixi found it more interesting.
Why did Huan Ling arrest you?
Yin Wu pursed his lips and said nothing.
Why are you being arrested? Bailixi asked again.
Yin Wu seemed a little frustrated and said in a low voice: I don't know.
Yin Wu was unhappy, and Baili Xi's annoyance dissipated a little.
After sending Yin Wu back to Linghe Palace, Baili Xi returned to Linyuan Palace, the residence of the high priests of the past dynasties.
He planted a piece of green bamboo outside the palace and used it to create a maze. He walked through the maze and returned to the palace to meditate. Sandalwood was burning in the furnace in front of him, and the smoke rose up like a spiritual snake.
People in the Min Kingdom all believe in destiny. He has shown amazing talents in physiognomy, astrology, and divination since he was a child. He was accepted as a direct disciple by the former high priest Feng Nanyin. , became a new priest at the age of seventeen, and spent most of his time in retreat.
The lone star of the evil spirit can defeat all the six relatives and kill all directions.
Kill Po Lang to follow his fate, he will be wandering all his life, and his body and life will be in danger.
He has these two fates, so he never tells his own fortune.
The white mist in the sea of consciousness dissipated, revealing a timid girl on the ground. She was wearing a plain white dress, wet and dripping with water. She timidly raised her head to look at him, with a few teardrops on her crow feathers. The child is so pitiful, with eyes full of despair and begging.
The girl's white and tender fingers trembled, as if she was a little scared. After hesitating for a moment, she reached out and grabbed the corner of his robe, and said in a sweet voice: Cousin Xi, save me.
Baili Xi opened his eyes and saw that the sandalwood in the furnace had gone out, and there was no wet girl in the palace. He looked down at the corner of his robe that had been caught in the illusion just now and was slightly lost in thought.
What kind of cousin did she call?
Could it be that he has been possessed?
The bone-chilling water rushed in from all sides, and Yin Wu couldn't breathe. She struggled desperately to catch something, but in vain.
She didn't know who pushed her into the lake, and she seemed to be frozen.
Suddenly a hand with clear joints appeared in front of her eyes. Yin Wu seemed to have seen a life-saving straw and held the hand tightly. The water around her finally receded. She knelt on the ground and looked up at her rescuer, terrified. Overwhelmed, she finally made up her mind to ask for his protection. She reached out and held the corner of his robe, asking her cousin to help him.
Yin Wu woke up. Even though I knew it was just a past life experience, I still felt cold.
Why call me cousin? There was a daughter from Baili's family who stayed with Yin Zhen for a while, and Yin Zhen called her sister. Once when Yin Wu came to Bailixi to ask for help, he ignored her at first. In panic, Yin Wu wanted to get relatives, so he called her cousin. , I don’t know if it was the purpose of this voice, or for other reasons, but Baili Xi finally took action.
Did the saint have a nightmare again? Xi Shuang opened the bed curtain and lit the crystal lamp beside the bed.
Yin Wu looked at Qianshuang standing in front of the bed, thinking of her ending in the previous life, and finally said: You were sent by the Baili family to monitor me.
Qianshuang was stunned, and the expression in her eyes changed slightly, but the slave girl was not.
You are from the Li ethnic group.
Saint Qianshuang took a step back in shock.
Yin Wu patted the bedside. Sit down. I have something to tell you.
I don’t dare! Xishuang knelt down tremblingly.
The Li people used to have their own land. After it was annexed by the Min Kingdom, because the people did not believe in the religion, they were all punished as slaves. They could be bought and sold at will and killed at will. Xishuang was carefully selected and trained by the Li people and sent to the Baili family. Working as an undercover agent, he was spotted by the Baili family and sent to the palace to monitor Yin Wu's every move.
She was the Baili family's spy, but her allegiance was to the Li people. So on the day of the Li people's assassination, she took Yin Wu to escape, in fact, she wanted her to be caught by the Li people.
Why do the Li people want to arrest me?
Qianshuang knew that her identity had been exposed, but she was not prepared to reveal any more information.
Do you want to use me to threaten the cult? Yin Wu asked tentatively. Seeing that Qianshuang was still silent, she stretched out her hand to lift Qianshuang's face and whispered: Let's destroy the cult together, okay?
Qianshuang was shocked, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Yin Wu stood in front of the bamboo forest outside Linyuan Palace, feeling a little uneasy. She wanted to know how Di Subaru dealt with him in the end, and she also wanted to explore Baili Xi's attitude.
In her previous life, she panicked and ran into this bamboo forest. She got lost in it and walked for a long time without getting out. Finally, she couldn't walk anymore. She sat under a bamboo tree and cried when she heard a cool voice saying that she was noisy. .
She looked up and saw Bailixi standing in front of her. He led her out of the bamboo forest. Although he was impatient, he still told her how to find the way.
There were no maids in Linyuan Palace. Even if she wanted to find someone to communicate, she couldn't find one and had to go in by herself. Yin Wu took a deep breath and stepped into the bamboo forest.
After walking through the winding path under the bamboo, Yin Wu arrived in front of Linyuan Palace. The palace door was ajar, so she walked in sideways, and soon arrived at the door of Bailixi's dormitory.
Yin Wu asked to see the high priest. she whispered.
No one answered her.
Yin Wu called out again, but still no one answered, so he guessed that Baili Xi was not in Linyuan Palace.
She didn't want to return in vain, so she sat down on the steps and waited.
On the other side, it was already late at night when Bailixi finished dealing with Di Subaru's matter. He walked through the green bamboo forest and found Yin Wu just after entering the palace gate.
The girl wore a gauze skirt and hugged her knees, leaning against the doorpost. A strand of hair was blown by the wind and stuck to her face, making her small face white.
Is the maze in the bamboo forest too simple?
Yin Wu opened her eyes when she heard the sound. Because she had just woken up, her eyes were a little confused. When she saw him, she suddenly stood up happily, "High Priest."
What's there to be happy about seeing him? His brain was broken yesterday?
How did you get in?
With obvious panic and restlessness in her eyes, she walked along the path and walked in.
Although he knew that Yin Wu was lying, Baili Xi was too lazy to pursue it and only asked: What's the matter?
It was already dark at this time, but she managed to see Bailixi. Although she knew the time was inappropriate, she still said: Yin Wu wants to know why Di Subaru wants to arrest me.
He is a craftsman of the Li tribe, lurking around Huan Ling, and has committed suicide. Baili Xi looked indifferent and passed her into the palace gate.
Committed suicide? Li people's fine work? Huan Ling was able to clear up the suspicion just like that?
Yin Wu was a little unwilling, so she took a deep breath and followed.
Baili Xi was cleaning his hands, looking indifferent and distant, not raising his eyes to look at Yin Wu.
Does the high priest believe it?
Chapter 3 Fantasy
Baili Xi washed his hands slowly and wiped away the water stains with a white handkerchief. Then he raised his eyes to look at Yin Wu. People are dead. There is no difference between belief and disbelief.
Yin Wu choked, but still refused to give in. The guardian Huan Ling
I have already received the punishment of eighty lashes for my negligence, and I personally carried out the punishment. The dim light did not soften him at all. He was like an immortal who was not stained by the mortal world. He was cold and distant. What else could the saint say?
Yin Wu knew that he was impatient again and there was really no evidence in his hand, so he had no choice but to give up. She lowered her head, inevitably a little disappointed.
When she reached the door, she turned back and asked cautiously: "High Priest, I recently read "Divination Zhengzong" and I don't understand some parts. If the High Priest is free, can I come and ask the High Priest to clarify my doubts?"
The girl who was not very happy just now changed into a studious and inquiring face in the blink of an eye.
Baili Xi didn't even raise his eyes, that's fine.
After Yin Wu left, Baili Xi walked into the bamboo forest and set up the maze again.
He promised Yin Wu that he could come for advice, but she had to come in on her own.
The divine sect has four guardians and three elders. The family forces behind it are intertwined. These forces check and balance each other. The saint is the most useless embellishment. If the divine sect was not originally established by the Yin family, the people would all regard the Yin family as the incarnation of the gods. The religion has no need for saints for a long time. Even if the Li people want a bargaining chip, they should find someone useful. Should they catch such a waste and go back to eat for free?
A girl's sobs came from the green bamboo forest. Baili Xi walked over to find the sound and found the crying girl under a green bamboo tree.
She was wrapped in a crow-green cloak, her hair was untied, and there were wounds on her face, like a panicked little beast.
A glistening white hand stretched out from under the cloak and hesitantly held the corner of his robe with a trembling voice: Cousin Xi
Baili Xi woke up again.
For two days in a row, he dreamed of that good-for-nothing saint. Could it be that she was evil?
He got up and went out and saw a full moon in the sky. He couldn't help but frown. Tomorrow would be the fifteenth day.
He followed the path in the dream and found the bamboo. The patterns on the bamboo were exactly the same as in the dream, but there was no crying girl under the bamboo.
Chenfeng, chop down this bamboo.
Chen Feng appeared from the darkness and cut off the green bamboo with his sword.
Burned.
Since the age of thirteen or fourteen, the men of the Baili family have been tortured by desire and dragged into the Red Lotus Hell. They sink into the sea of lust and indulge in the joy brought by the love between men and women, and then they will gradually go crazy.
It only takes about a year or two to go from going crazy once every six months, to going crazy once a month, to finally becoming a lunatic.
Using the Yin family's blood as a guide to refine the elixir, it can temporarily suppress the madness, but it only stops the boil.
Now only Yin Wu is left in the Yin family, and it is not known whether draining her blood will be enough to make medicine.
But if there is no love between men and women, they will not go crazy.
But desire will lurk like a poisonous snake, waiting for an opportunity to bite anyone anytime, anywhere. On the fifteenth day of every month, this poisonous snake is at its most unruly, and so is Baili Xi. At this time, there was a strange color in his eyes.
When Baili Xi was five years old, Baili Lai went crazy and killed Wu and his mother in front of him. He will always remember that scene, so he will never let himself go crazy or lose control.
This madness is a curse, a maggot attached to his bones. He will not sink into the sea of lust, nor will he surrender himself to the love of men and women, nor will he marry and have children. The filthy bloodline of the Baili family will not continue from him. Go down.
He closed his eyes and opened them again after a long time. The strange color had been suppressed. He stood up and walked to the courtyard. When he saw a full moon in the sky, Bailixi's narrow phoenix eyes narrowed but he couldn't help but feel. Become irritable.
The bamboo forest was rustled by the wind, and the rustling sound seemed to be mixed with thin sobs.
He frowned, had another nightmare?
No, it was not a dream, he was awake.
Looking for this thin sobbing sound, Baili Xi entered the bamboo forest again, passed through several mazes, and saw a crow-green figure under a green bamboo.
This person is naturally Yin Wu.
In the evening, the Ceremony Director brought a sacrificial silver pot to collect blood. This blood was to be used to refine elixirs for the Baili family. Yin Wu only drained a little blood at the last sacrificial ceremony, so he came to collect it again.
Yin Wu could only bleed, and after the others left, he came to Linyuan Palace.
In her previous life, she had been resigned to the situation and lived like a pitiful little person who could be manipulated by others. In this life, she wants to live a good life and take revenge, so she needs Bailixi's protection.
Hearing the footsteps, Yin Wu raised his eyes and saw that under the moonlight, Baili Xi was dressed in white, with his hair disheveled, distant, aloof and unapproachable.
Yin Wu originally wanted to enter Linyuan Palace, but got lost in the green bamboo forest. She had bled, but she cut the wound deeper before entering the bamboo forest. She lost too much blood and her eyesight became a little black. In the end, she couldn't walk anymore. When she wanted to get out, she couldn't find a way out, so she was trapped in the forest.
She was in pain, desperate, and a little regretful of her recklessness, when she saw Baili Xi appear in front of her.
She tried hard to recall the time when she begged Baili Xi for help in her previous life. Her heart was beating fast, fearing that she might not beg for the right thing this time and lose the chance.
A slender, crystal-white hand stretched out from the cloak, trembling slightly, and grabbed the corner of Baili Xi's robe. Her voice was soft and unbelievably charming in this night: Cousin Xi
Bailixi's eyes fell on the deep wound on her wrist, which was still bleeding and dyed the green grass below red.
Oh, my face wasn't hurt this time, my wrist was hurt, right?
Who is your cousin? Baili Xi raised his eyebrows, his voice cold.
Yin Wu didn't answer his words, she lost too much blood and passed out.
Although the girl's figure was not fully grown, she was still considered slender. However, she tilted her head and fell to the ground in a small ball.
Tsk, how miserable. After sighing, Bailixi ignored her and turned around and walked out.
Cousin Xi shouted to save the unconscious girl.
Baili Xi looked back and saw Yin Wu huddled there under the dense bamboo shadow, looking a little pitiful.
Because of the influence of the full moon, he was particularly irritable today, so he rubbed his forehead and called Chenfeng.
After a while, no one showed up, and then he remembered to ask Chen Feng to leave the palace to do some business.
Forget it, she is the last bloodline of the Yin family. If she dies like this, he will have to deal with the trouble.
Bailixi walked back and touched Yin Wu's leg with his toe to wake him up.
Yin Wu didn't respond at all. The wound on her wrist was still bleeding. If the bleeding was not stopped as soon as possible, the Yin family's last bloodline would be severed.
Baili Xi leaned over and picked her up, one hand on her vest, one hand on her knees, and his arms moved forward to prevent her from touching him, not caring that this would make Yin Wu uncomfortable.
The girl's head was tilted back, her injured hand was drooping, and she was carried out of the bamboo forest swaying.
There was only one couch in Linyuan Palace, and Baili Xi wanted to put Yin Wu on the ground.
The girl cousin was still unconscious, and her voice was extremely soft.
Baili Xi threw Yin Wu on the bed impatiently, looked at her with cold eyes, and became more and more irritable in his heart.
In the familiar palace, a beautiful woman was holding a four or five-year-old girl, humming a tune. She had injuries on her neck and arms, but her eyes were gentle.
A maid walked into the room, glanced at the woman, and said coldly: It's time.
The woman's body stiffened, but she was afraid of scaring the girl, so she pressed her cheek and coaxed softly: "Cicada, can you go out and play for a while?"
The girl's eyes were suddenly full of fear. Her thin arms hugged the woman tightly, as if she could protect her mother. No, Cicada don't go out, Cicada wants her mother!
However, the maid forcefully hugged the girl and walked out regardless of her struggles. The girl was crying so hard that she couldn't catch her breath.
Yin Wu, whose mother was in a coma, groaned, her brows furrowed, and her long eyelashes wet.
Baili Xi stood in front of the bed, glanced coldly but ignored it, turned around and went to the back hall.
Yin Wu woke up half an hour later. Her body was weak and her vest was covered with sweat. She looked around to confirm that she was in Linyuan Palace, and her anxious heart finally fell back into her stomach.
It's going great, so far everything is going great.
She raised her injured hand. The wound was not bandaged, only medicine was applied, but the wound was already scabbed.
In his previous life, Yin Wu had a high fever when he was young and forgot many things. Now that he was reborn, those forgotten memories were finally recalled.
Yin Zhen was the former saint who gave birth to only one daughter, Yin Wu. In order to leave more Yin family blood, Baili Lai forced Yin Zhen to have sex with different people |
Baili Lai is one of the three elders of the divine sect and is also Baili Xi's nominal father. However, Baili Xi never had a good look towards his father in his previous life.
There was no one in the hall, so Yin Wu went straight to the back of the hall. There was a bathing pool there, which was formed by drawing water from a mountain spring. Today was the fifteenth again, and Baili Xihui would be there.
After walking through the familiar corridor, Yin Wu heard the sound of gurgling water. There was a little sound under her feet, and the man in the white jade bath turned his head to look over.
Yin Wu paused, then stepped forward and stopped three steps away from the bath.
Her throat was a little tight, but she tried to make her voice steady: Yin Wu thanked the high priest for saving his life.
Baili Xi was only wearing a plain white robe on his upper body. At this time, he was leaning against the wall of the pool, closing his eyes and letting out a sigh.
The maze outside has changed. Yin Wu doesn't know when he will see him next, so he must seize this opportunity.
She paused and spoke again: Tonight, the Ceremony Director said that there were sacrifices that required holy blood. The wounds they made were deep and the bleeding could not be stopped. Yin Wu was panicked and broke into the bamboo forest, disturbing the high priest's Qing Xiu.
Yin Wu didn't dare to raise her eyes, but she heard the sound of water in the pool, followed by the sound of water dripping on the jade stone paving the ground. There was a faint breath of green bamboo on the tip of her nose, and a cold hand lifted her chin.
Chapter 4 Sacrificing the Beast
Yin Wu was forced to look up and saw a pair of eyes without any emotion. She wanted to move her eyes away, but she immediately forced herself to calm down. She looked directly at Bailixi and called out tremblingly: "High Priest."
The cold hand moved away, but the touch still stayed on his face. Baili Xi walked barefoot to the ear room next to the bath, and Yin Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, Baili Xi walked out. He was still dressed in white, with a handsome face that was not stained with lust, and his hair was disheveled, like an unruly immortal.
If the saint has no other instructions, please go back. The voice was also cold and indifferent.
Yin Wu gritted his teeth and followed, the high priest, Yin Wu was a little scared!
Bailixi stopped, looked back, and asked softly: What is the saint afraid of?
Yin Wu bit his lip, his face was pale, and a teardrop hung on his eyelashes. I was afraid that I would not be so lucky next time. If the high priest did not save me, Yin Wu would die.
Baili Xi walked up to her step by step, looked down at her, suddenly reached out to catch the tear, and twisted it on his fingertips.
He couldn't touch it in the dream, so it was like this.
Yin Wu froze.
If she dies, it will be a saint who dedicated her life to the religion, which is a meritorious deed.
High Priest, there was too little holy blood on the day of the ceremony. There were many children in the family, and the elixirs made were not enough. Baili Heng secretly raised his eyes and glanced at the people in the seat, then quickly lowered his eyes. Although he took some more holy blood yesterday, , but it is only enough for the family for one month.
Um. The people on the seats didn't even raise their heads.
In terms of seniority, Bailiheng can be regarded as Bailixi's cousin, but Bailixi was accepted as a disciple by Feng Nanyin at the age of five. He left Baili's family and had no contact with the family anymore. He acted purely based on his preferences. Li Heng didn't have the guts to be his cousin.
The head of the family said that the saint was now sixteen years old and could have children, and hoped that the high priest would make arrangements soon. Now the head of the Baili family is Baili Lai, one of the three elders of the divine sect.
The hall fell silent, except for the sound of Baili Xi rubbing the tortoise shell.
Who asked you to go to Linghe Palace to get blood last night? Bailixi's voice was cold.
He is the head of the family.
Then ask the head of the family to send you an errand, so the ceremony director doesn't have to go anymore.
Great Priest! Baili Heng finally got the job of Director of Ceremonies. He was shocked and frightened after hearing this.
Also, Bailixi still lowered his eyes and played with the tortoise shell in his hand. The children of the Baili family have indulged too much. They must learn to cultivate their moral character. There will be no more elixirs this year.
There are no more elixirs this year! ? How many people would go crazy!
Bailiheng was lying on the ground, half of his body was cold, but he didn't dare to speak again.
Baili Xi leaned back in the armchair with a look of boredom on his face, so that useless saint wouldn't bother him anymore.
However, in the afternoon, Yin Wu followed Meng Yanrong who was delivering food.
Meng Yanrong is the daughter of Elder Tianshu. She is quite beautiful. Because she is a commoner, if she wants to stand out, she can only hope to be promoted by Bailixi. Therefore, she asked for such a job, hoping that one day she can be seen by Bailixi. superior.
She glanced at Yin Wu who had followed her in, and she couldn't help but feel a little bit of jealousy in her heart. She was just a useless puppet, but she was born to be so charming and seductive. Why did she come to Yuan Palace for no reason? The high priest probably wouldn't look down on her. Such a kitsch look.
Meng Yanrong put down the food box and said softly: "High Priest, this is today's dinner."
Bailixi is a vegetarian, and all meals are prepared by special staff.
Bailixi didn't raise his head or speak. Meng Yanrong could only turn around and leave. Before leaving the door, he glared at Yin Wu secretly.
He is just a puppet with no support, and he is really overestimating his own abilities.
Bailixi was reading a book, while Yin Wu stood aside quietly and waited. After burning the incense, he finally raised his head. Is there something wrong with the saint?
Yin Wu thought about it, no matter what, he would get familiar with Baili Xi first, so he stared at his distant and cold eyes, gave a very gentle smile, and said: I want to ask the high priest to teach me fortune telling.
A hint of impatience flashed in Bailixi's eyes, and his voice was cold: The saint has no talent for fortune telling.
Yin Wu originally didn't want to learn fortune telling, but he just wanted to find a reason, so naturally he would not give up easily and join the group. Regarding numerology, please ask the high priest to teach me.
Not available today.
Yin Wu knew that he would get annoyed if he continued to pester him, so he called it a day and left quickly.
In the next few days, Yin Wu often followed Meng Yanrong in and out of Linyuan Palace. If Bailixi was in a good mood, he would tell her a few words about divination. If she was not in a good mood, he would not say a word to her. I also remember seventy-seven or eighty-eight years of the Bamboo Forest.
That day, I saw Meng Yanrong standing by the bamboo forest from a distance. When Yin Wu approached, Meng Yanrong knelt down to salute. His smile was more friendly than before. The saint came to learn divination from the high priest again?
Yin Wu nodded, and Meng Yanrong said again: It's just a coincidence that the high priest went out of the palace to do business today and has not returned yet.
Yin Wu was a little disappointed, but he smelled a strange fragrance in his nose. Meng Yanrong took off a sachet from his waist and handed it over. He smiled and said: "This slave has made a new sachet. The saint smells this scent and it is very elegant."
The scent of the sachet was sweet and greasy, which made her head hurt. Yin Wu felt a little strange in her heart, so she returned the sachet to Meng Yanrong and said: "It smells very good. Since the high priest has not returned, I will go back first."
Meng Yanrong watched Yin Wu leave, with a sarcastic smile on his lips: Go back, good things are waiting for you.
Not long after Yin Wu returned to the palace, a maid informed that Meng Jiulang had come to see off the spiritual beast on the order of Elder Tianshu.
Yin Wu's mind exploded.
This Meng Jiulang's name is Meng Qi, and he hangs out in Yanhualiu Lane every day. In his previous life, in order to control Yin Wu, the Meng family wanted Yin Wu to marry Meng Qi, so they let him enter the palace under the pretense of sending a spiritual beast, with the intention of marrying him to the palace. Zhongqiang occupied Yinwu.
But when the Meng family came to catch the traitor, what they saw was not what they expected. Yin Wu poked Meng Qi's eyes out, but the matter failed. From then on, Elder Tianshu cruelly tortured Yin Wu, and later he also harmed her.
To see or not to see?
This time she could predict that if she didn't see him, she didn't know what the Meng family would do next time.
Want to see.
Yin Wu looked at his hands, which were shaking a little, but soon stopped shaking.
She will not let go of anyone who tortured and insulted her mother. Since Tianshu personally sent his son in, let's start with him.
Qianshuang, go to Linyuan Palace.
After Qianshuang left, Yin Wu changed into a dress with narrow sleeves, chose two gold hairpins to tie in his hair, hid a dagger in his arms, and walked out.
After entering the palace, she saw a snow-white little leopard waiting for her in Meng Qi's arms. Meng Qi's eyes were narrow and narrow, and he looked at Yin Wu with naked eyes, as if he was looking at a lamb that was about to be eaten.
Yin Wu felt sick and uncomfortable in her stomach, but she suppressed it. She sat down on the Arhat bed in the palace, smiled at Meng Qi, and said: Is this the spiritual beast?
Meng Qi had only seen Yin Wu a few times from a distance in the past, but now from such a close distance, seeing her snow-skinned and charming appearance, he couldn't help but be fascinated, thinking in his heart that although she was a puppet and had no rights, she was so beautiful. He didn't think he was at a disadvantage. When things got done, he said that the two of them would have a long-standing relationship and get married by then, and they would still be in ecstasy every day.
With this thought in mind, he handed over the little leopard in his hand, raised his eyes to look at Yin Wu's face, and informed the saint that his father had specially found this spiritual beast and gave it to the saint to relieve her boredom.
He was very close to Yin Wu and could smell her faint fragrance. Although he was anxious to get started, he wanted to wait for Zuihua Yin to take effect.
Meng Yanrong was his biological sister. He knew that Yin Wu often went to Linyuan Palace these days, so he asked Meng Yanrong to use Zuihua Yin on Yin Wu.
Zuihuayin is a good thing. It is a secret medicine that is hard to find. Although a woman is unconscious after using it, she is very obedient and does whatever she is told. If used for a long time, it can turn a person into a person who only knows how to have fun. A plaything for pets.
Yin Wu reached out to take the little leopard and teased it gently, but she was a little nervous. She didn't know whether Baili Xi would save her, or how tonight's matter would end, but she never had a way out.
Perhaps due to excessive stress, her head was a little dizzy and her body felt a little strange. There seemed to be a string inside. This string was stretched tightly and was being fiddled with by a hand.
Why is the saint's face so red? Could it be that you have a fever? Meng Qi had a smile on his lips and reached out to touch her forehead.
Yin Wu stepped back, feeling weak all over. He was frightened and his breathing became rapid. However, Meng Qi bullied him again and said: Is the saint feeling uncomfortable? Let me rub it for the saint.
presumptuous. Yin Wu made a sound, but felt that the voice did not sound like his own, and was too soft to speak.
These words were obviously of no use to Meng Qi. Instead, they aroused his desire. He hugged Yin Wu's waist and said in a lewd voice: Brother, I will take you to ecstasy! Brother loves you!
Yin Wu was so sick that he wanted to vomit, but he couldn't muster the strength. He held the gold hairpin and was about to stab it, but Meng Qi slammed him onto the Arhat's bed, and the gold hairpin was thrown out of his hand.
The belt was untied and the coat slipped off. Yin Wu bit his tongue to stay awake, pulled out the other golden hairpin, and stabbed Meng Qi fiercely.
Meng Qi screamed and backed away. He covered his shoulders, fiercely pulled out the golden hairpin, rushed forward again, and cursed: What a saint, she is just a plaything, anyone can ride on her, anyone can sleep with her! Isn’t your mother also a saint? In the end, she was slept on by thousands of people! Dare to hurt me!
Yin Wu's consciousness became even more blurred, her body seemed to be soaked in water, and she couldn't help herself at all. She held the sharp edge of the dagger in her palm and slashed hard. Severe pain hit her. Finally, she regained some consciousness and raised the dagger suddenly. , thrust hard into Meng Qi's neck.
The insertion was off-center and only penetrated the shoulder blade. Yin Wu drew the knife again and inserted it again.
Her consciousness was gradually withdrawn, but she always remembered to kill Meng Qi.
When Baili Xi arrived at the bamboo forest, Qianshuang rushed over and kowtowed, begging the high priest to save the saint! Mengjia Jiulang is now in Linghe Palace, acting in a sneaky way, fearing that he is planning something evil! Please help the high priest!
Baili Xi frowned and walked around Qianshuang. He really hated trouble and was too lazy to care about the mess outside. That good-for-nothing saint was a big trouble.
He fell into meditation and saw Yin Wu again in his meditation. She was covered in blood and her eyes were full of panic. She looked up at him with begging in her eyes.
This time, Baili Xi woke up before Yin Wu could speak.
He rubbed his forehead, feeling a little irritated. Why did he always dream of these strange scenes recently? He had never experienced them before, but they were extremely real.
He looked up and saw that only one stick of incense had passed.
It was quiet outside Linghe Palace. Bailixi opened the palace door and smelled the strong smell of blood. He frowned and stepped in.
Chapter 5 Strange Smell
In the hall, Yin Wu was kneeling on the ground, half of her coat was taken off, her shoulders were half exposed, and her body was covered in blood. She stabbed with a dagger in both hands. The corpse on the ground had long since expired.
Her eyes were empty and her expression was dull, as if she didn't see Baili Xi coming in, and she just kept repeating the stabbing action with the knife.
He is dead. Bailixi walked up to her.
However, Yin Wu seemed not to hear and did not react at all.
Bailixi knelt down, stretched out his hand to lift her face, and instantly smelled a strange fragrance.
Zuihuayin? He actually used Zuihua Yin on her? I really look up to her.
Yinwu.
The girl finally found him, frowned, and looked down at her hands, which were covered with blood. She looked at them for a while before looking up, and tears fell down. Cousin Xi had killed someone.
The days when she was protected by Baili Xi in her previous life were the times when Yin Wu felt most at ease. Now that she has no consciousness at all, she still recognizes Baili Xi and calls him Cousin Xi.
Seeing the girl who was exactly the same as in his dream, Baili Xi was extremely irritated. He picked up Yin Wu and turned around and left the hall.
High Priest. Chen Feng appears.
Today, all the maids and palace gate guards on duty in Linghe Palace were killed. Meng Jiulang assassinated the saint in the name of offering a spiritual beast, and he has been executed. Bailixi's voice was cold.
Yin Wu had completely lost her mind. She grabbed Baili Xi's clothes with both hands and cried pitifully. Xi's cousin Cicada was in pain and uncomfortable.
Taming? The name suits her well, she is quite capable of pestering people.
