Gu Yun frowned and carefully recalled for a moment: “It sounds familiar I’ve heard that…it seemed to be a kind of God from the North?”
“He is the head of the four hteen Tribes” Chen Qing Xu said: “Legend has it that he has four feet, four are of disasters and fareedy by nature When he descended, the earth and heaven changed, all living beings will be sed up by hi God from the Northern Man”
Gu Yun replied with an ‘oh’, he somewhat could not understand
“I infiltrated deep into the grasslands for half a year, but up to now, the witchcraft of the Eighteen Tribes, I could only touch the surface Its deep history and profundity is beyond the iners such as those of us from far away
“There are ends of evil Gods, the most vicious one is the ‘Bone of Ihtly “‘Four feet, four arms, two heads and two hearts’, in a literal sense, what does the Marquis think this looks like?”
Gu Yun reply with hesitance: “It sounds like two peopleXu: “Yes, the evil God Wu Er Gu devoured his brother as soon as he was born and gained twice the amount of divine power ever since There is an ancient witchcraft in the Eighteen Tribes which combines two brothers connected by blood into one soon after they were born, and produces a…monster that can acquire the power of the evil God, also known as ‘Bone of Impurity’”
Gu Yun listened, he was silent for a h there was the steel plate support, but somehow, he could still felt needle-like pain under it
Chen Qing Xu hurriedly said, “Marquis, your wound…”
“It is all right,” Gu Yun waved his hand, licked his lips slightly, slowed down his tone and asked, “Miss Chen, I don’t quite understand what itXu hesitated a little
“Don’t worry,” Gu Yun said “You can say it”
“I have only heard this fro Xu e of one in a sealed place, not giving theht, water, nor food… one of the till die from suffocation first The dead baby will then be taken out and be refined by a secret ht for an instant that hishiain with difficulty: “…What?”
“Refining” Chen Qing Xu emphasized on the word: “Then combined with the secretto its surviving brother bit by bit…”
Gu Yun lost his voice: “Could that child still live at this point?”
“Marshal had underestihteen Tribes’ thousand years of witchcraft,” Chen Qing Xu said “In the lost witchcraft, there are even vivid and detailed records of turning dead people into an anis for refinement
“They think if a person… or perhaps a ‘Bone of Impurity’, was refined in this way, froth or extraordinary wisdom far different from ordinary people, because ‘he’ is actually two people, with ‘four feet and two heads’, he can invite the power of evil Gods”
Gu Yun hesitated and said, “Forgive norant of this…matter Miss Chen, I think this all sounds like a ridiculous story passed a Xu said: “With our inherent knowledge and understanding, the Marquis can regard Bone of Impurity as a kind of poison that destroys one’s mental state Some mad men are indeed more powerful than ordinary people and often think differently from ordinary people When they have not yet lost all their sense coence”
Gu Yun: “…There are still things we can’t understand with our innate knowledge”
Chen Qing Xu said, “Marshal, to tell you the truth, I sneaked into Eighteen Tribes to research their witchcraft, not only for your ears and eyes, but also for tracing back the origin of Bone of Impurity
“But there are very few records about it from the Man people There is only one tale about an ancient barbarian general, whose name is ‘Wu Er Gu’ This man is cruel and bloodthirsty, but he had won hundreds of battle, singlehandedly creating the foundation of the united Eighteen Tribes we see now He lived until 32 years old, had never married in his life, the reason was because he was neither dead nor alive, neither oosebuxu: “I had checked the record of birth, death, and origin of this person and learned that his irl, but afterwards, there was no record of the female baby, nor was there any record that she was dead… there are only two explanations: one is that after their fairl was lost, the other was…”
The pair of boy and girl tere ed into one, ether in the same body This was ‘neither dead nor alive, neither man nor wohtly, Chen Qing Xu asked nervously, “Marquis, did the steel plate come loose?”
Gu Yun bent down and took a breath after a while He whispered: “Why would anyone do such a thing?”
Chen Qing Xu supported him to one side and helped him sit down: “Usually when the country was broken and the nation could no longer be preserved that did this kind of cruelblood as a sacrifice to the evil Gods in exchange for vengeance When all the people named ‘Wu Er Gu’ were born, they would all lead to blood-soaked turbulence”
Gu Yun: “You have just said that it was like a kind of poison that harm the people’sXu said: “Wu Er Gu will turn insane At first, there will be entangling nightmares Over time, they will become sensitive and suspicious If they do not restrain, it will gradually produce hallucinations Finally…”
“That is why…,” As Gu Yun said these words, his voice seemed to crack He had to forcefully clear his throat to be able to continue this sentence “That is why you prescribed hi Xu: “…”
Of course, she kneho Gu Yun was speaking of She could not say anything, only ad to it in silence
Gu Yun closed his eyes slightly — he recalled that Chang Geng had mentioned to him carelessly more than once, such words as ‘too much fire will cause restless sleep’ and so on, yet he had never thought about it carefully, only assu that as this child followed so, it had turned him delirious, that he hadabout health care But as it turned out…he had soat?”
Chen Qing Xu remained silent for a moment
Gu Yun: “You can tellas I am still alive for one more day, whether he is insane or brainless, I will take care of hihness… His Highness has incredible will, his heart is peaceful For many years, the Bone of Impurity on his body has never acted up He himself was also aware of this, thus he has restrained hio, u needles The Marquis needn’t worry about it”
Although she spoke in a vague manner, Gu Yun was able to understand — it had always been peaceful, never acting up, except for the period awhile ago
“Because ofup abruptly al to life He stumbled for a moment, his expression appeared as if he had just been stabbed
He avoided Chen Qing Xu’s helping hand, the rigid supporting steel platehim appear like an iron puppet that had ran out of Ziliujin
Chen Qing Xu stopped in place for a moment Her plain white face was heavy with e back in the direction of the capital city The wooden bird released in the past few days should have arrived in the capital by now, just…was the decision she wrote in the letter truly the correct one?
The sky in the capital was glooure was co ale and placed his hands together to thank the person inside: “I apologize for troubling Your Highness in taking your ti lifted the curtain and s in the Military Office for days I should go back to Marquis’s Manor to get new clothes and take a bath, it is also on the sa Han need not be overly courteous — but did Ling Shu Institute not provide you with a carriage?”
Zhang Feng Han did not pay it any s to run errands, I a out of the capital, these old bones are all soft, I should move about a bit more Now there are wars everywhere, the court have many places to distribute money to Let’s save as much as we can Even if we could not prevent the storm, but can’t we do a little bit of our best ability?”
