Chapter 523 Witchcraft Storm 2
The host master said: "It's normal for the donor not to understand. Witchcraft and Taoism are two different fields. Witchcraft is people using the mysterious power of nature to achieve their goals, while Taoism is the supernatural power emitted by the human body. Moreover, one is good and the other is evil."
Murong Li finally understood. In his impression, witchcraft was the trick of pricking little people. It turned out that witchcraft was actually like this.
Only at this moment did Murong Li feel that his understanding of nature was still very limited, and he yearned for those mysterious powers even more. He should not be trapped in this small world.
Once the affairs of the court are resolved, he will definitely take Yue'er to explore those unknown and mysterious powers.
In the imperial palace, the commander of the personal guards received the emperor's order and immediately led a thousand personal guards to search the palace, leaving no corner untouched except the emperor's place.
It's so scary. The Imperial Concubine has been bewitched. If the person who did this is not found, the Emperor will definitely skin them alive.
It’s not that the emperor feels sorry for the imperial concubine, but he is afraid that the person who cast witchcraft will come after him one day.
The commander of the imperial guards knew the emperor best, and he was afraid of death.
The imperial guards' search of the palace immediately caused an uproar. The masters of each palace were uneasy, but they didn't know what exactly the emperor had lost. Everyone searched in their own palace to see if the emperor had lost something in their palace.
If he could find her, he would surely be favored by the emperor, and it would not be impossible for him to be favored again.
The emperor has three thousand beauties in his harem, all of whom are as young as wolves and tigers, and none of them doesn't want to be favored by the emperor.
Unfortunately, the emperor has been in poor health recently, and they haven't even been able to see him. They have been very anxious these days.
But only Concubine Lin of Huayang Palace was restless in the palace. She knew in her heart what the guards were searching for in the palace.
The witchcraft in Concubine Yun must have been discovered, so the emperor ordered a palace search on the pretext that something was missing.
She was not afraid of the search, as there was no evidence left in her palace. However, it was her first time committing a crime, so she was inevitably nervous. She was worried that she would lose control of her fear and be exposed.
She was the legitimate daughter of the Lin family, one of the four major families, and the younger sister of the head of the Lin family. She had been in the palace for almost ten years and did not even have a princess. Now she was pregnant with great difficulty and had been favored by the emperor.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Mr. Lin Si came to the palace to find him and handed her something. It was a black talisman paper with strange runes painted on it with red cinnabar. He asked her to find a way to get Concubine Yun's hair and burn it with the talisman paper for Concubine Yun to take.
After Mr. Lin Si's explanation, she knew that the thing was called the Seven-Day Death Talisman and was a form of witchcraft.
Mr. Lin Si always loved dealing with people from the underworld, and he got this seven-day death talisman from someone who claimed to be from the witch clan.
This seven-day death talisman is the simplest and most convenient, and it is easy to cast on someone.
Mr. Lin Si bought several at once.
Originally, this thing was prepared for the emperor and Murong Li, but their defenses were too strict, and their people couldn't even get close to them, and couldn't touch them or get their hair. As a last resort, they had to start with Concubine Yun.
After all, she is the emperor's concubine and Murong Li's mother.
Murong Li's carriage soon arrived at the gate of the palace. The two got off the carriage and quickly went to Xihe Palace.
It was already night, and lights were on in every house. Palace lanterns were also lit everywhere in the palace, illuminating the roads that led to the palace in all directions.
When the two arrived at Xihe Palace, Emperor Tai and Su Yue were still there. They had not eaten dinner and were both guarding Concubine Yun's bed.
And Concubine Yun on the bed may have drunk Su Yue's spiritual spring water, and her aura is stronger than before.
The emperor looked at Su Yue, and the words came to his lips and he wanted to ask several times, but he swallowed them back every time.
He was still brooding over the thefts in the national treasury and the imperial palace a few years ago, and always wanted to know why his national treasury was emptied, leaving nothing behind.
Su Yue saw that the emperor seemed to be hesitant to speak, and thought that he wanted to ask about the spiritual spring water. If the emperor didn't ask, she would definitely not say it, even if he did.
"This poor monk greets His Majesty, Princess Li!"
At this moment, the abbot and Murong Li arrived, and the abbot bowed to the emperor and Su Yue as soon as he arrived.
The emperor helped him up and said anxiously, "Master, please show the imperial concubine what's going on."
The presiding master clasped his hands together and said calmly, "Your Majesty, please be patient. I will take a look first."
The emperor nodded and gave his seat to the abbot.
The abbot approached the bed and first looked at Concubine Yun's face. He saw that she was pale, thin, and had a hint of death in her.
He was startled and quickly took Yun Fei's pulse.
After a long while, the abbot finally let go of Concubine Yun's wrist and stood up. He looked at the emperor and the other two seriously, clasped his hands together and said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has indeed been under a witchcraft spell called the Seven Days of Death."
"Is there a solution? What is the seven-day killing spree?"
The emperor asked anxiously, as he felt the name was extremely dangerous.
The abbot nodded and said, "Yes, this seven-day life-threatening spell is the simplest among the witch tribe. I will draw a Taoist talisman and feed it to the Imperial Concubine when I return to Xiangguo Temple. After a period of recuperation, she will recover. Your Majesty, Prince Li, don't worry."
"Witch tribe? Why haven't I heard of this tribe?"
When they heard there was a solution, the emperor and the other two breathed a sigh of relief, but the emperor asked the abbot in confusion.
Even Murong Li and Su Yue looked at the abbot, hoping that he could answer their questions.
The abbot said, "It's quite normal that His Majesty the King doesn't know about the Wu Clan. This is because the Wu Clan was completely wiped out hundreds of years ago. I'm guessing that the Wu Clan's reappearance is due to them slipping through the net back then."
The host master did not say that it was actually his master and a group of cultivators who destroyed the witch clan. This was recorded in the book kept by his master.
It also records the commonly used witchcraft and solutions among the witch tribe.
Otherwise he wouldn't know.
The Wu clan was originally a nation that was not loved by the world and was a secluded nation. They acted strangely and cruelly, and often used people to test their witchcraft.
It was then destroyed by a cultivator.
Such things will naturally not be spread to the world.
The emperor is the emperor of Xifeng Kingdom, and Murong Li and Su Yue are cultivators, so it’s okay to tell them.
"Will they commit evil among the people? And how can we prevent them?"
The emperor asked what he was worried about.
The abbot knew the emperor was afraid of death. He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. The witch tribe will not cause chaos among the people. As for defense, I don't know how to prevent it. The witch tribe's actions are difficult to guard against. But your Majesty's personal belongings, as well as your hair and blood, must not be taken by anyone. Because witchcraft requires the victim's belongings as a medium."
