Chapter 147 Let Me Tell You Something
An hour later, Bu Ruo and his group set off. It would take six or seven days to travel from Kyoto to the border by fast horse.
The emperor sent assassins as soon as he learned that Bu Ruo had left the capital. He wanted to kill as many people as possible. Otherwise, he was planning to attack the palace in the near future. This was the best opportunity since Xiao Yulan was not around.
You know, Xiao Yulan and Bu Ruolijing should have told the emperor first, but these two people just treated him as if he were air. How could the emperor, who had been sitting on the throne for so many years, bear this?
On the third day, while resupplying, Jin Congcong looked at Bu Ruo's face without a smile and asked weakly, "Ruo'er, I don't have to go. I can help you watch over the palace. If there's any danger, don't worry, I will definitely run away first."
"So... could you please let me go back slowly because my thighs are already rubbed raw? I can't help you anyway, and I might even cause trouble for you."
Bu Ruo turned around and glared at him angrily: "No, if I leave you in the palace and something happens, I won't be able to save you in time. It's better to keep you by my side so that I can be more at ease."
"As for the legs...except for people like Cen Bei who are always on the road, whose legs don't have blisters? My legs hurt too!"
After saying this, he gritted his teeth secretly: "You too, you still flatter yourself and say you are the genius doctor Jin, but you can't even mix the powder and have to go to the clinic to buy it. I am really impressed."
Bu Ruo looked at Jin Congcong who was eager to try and sneak away, narrowed her eyes and decided to tell him the truth.
"Jin Congcong, let me tell you something. Stay calm and don't be afraid."
Jin Congcong paused holding the dry food and looked around in fear: "Ruo... Ruo'er, please don't scare me. Is there another female ghost following me?"
"I'm telling you I'm a coward. Even though my parents wouldn't bother you if I died, we grew up together after all. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
"There's no female ghost. It's something else."
Jin Congcong breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the dry food and continued to chew: "It's okay as long as it's not a female ghost. Other things can't scare me. Don't underestimate me, I..."
"There's a curse within your consciousness, and a mortal calamity upon you. I can't remove it for now."
As soon as Bu Ruo finished speaking, Bi'er, Cen Bei, and Qian Luan immediately bit their dry food into their mouths and covered their ears.
really……
"Ah! Ahhh! What curse! What death calamity! Ruo'er, what are you talking about!"
"How could I, a perfectly healthy person, be cursed and doomed? Ruo'er, are you sure? Could it be that you saw it wrong?"
As Jin Congcong spoke, he jumped and danced, as if he wanted to jump off the curse and death.
Jin Congcong covered his face and squatted on the ground, sobbing: "Did my father see through it too, that's why he doesn't care about me anymore? Is it because I will die sooner or later that they took the second son, without asking me a single question and even stopping the only two taels of silver I get every month?"
"Wuwu... Ruo'er, you are all I have left. You must not abandon me. I haven't lived enough."
Bu Ruo: ...
Bu Ruo took a deep breath and tried to reason with him, "You're fine for now. I asked you to train your spiritual consciousness so that I could break that curse of yours as soon as possible. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to do anything with that garbage of your spiritual consciousness."
"As for the death calamity, although I can't tell when it will come, as long as you are by my side, nothing will happen. I will save you, so I will always keep you by my side."
Jin Congcong looked up at Bu Ruo and wanted to kneel down and kowtow to her: "I knew that you would not give up on me, Ruoer. From today on, you are my adopted parent. You are closer to me than my parents. I will take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life."
Bu Ruo: ...
That's not necessary.
Qian Luan couldn't help laughing as he watched someone continue to wipe away tears. "Don't worry, Master Jin. Even if death strikes, as long as you can preserve your soul, given the friendship between my master and the princess, we will definitely arrange for you to be reincarnated first."
Jin Congcong looked at Qian Luan gratefully: "Then can you please talk to your parents and arrange a wealthy businessman for me? I want to be a rich man."
Bu Ruo coughed lightly: "This is your next question. Although I can't resolve your death calamity for the time being, I can calculate that it is related to silver. That's why I have been controlling and not giving you any extra silver."
"In other words, your doom will be fulfilled on silver."
Jin Congcong cried, "If my death calamity comes when I'm eighty, then I won't be able to have money in this life, right?"
"Then what's the point of me living? Ruo'er, you'd better leave me alone and let me die. Living without money is suffering anyway."
He looked at Bu Ruo, then at Qian Luan: "Can you ask your master right now if there are any wealthy businessmen who need sons? I think I can go over right now."
Bu Ruo jumped on the horse and said, "That's fine, but I have to tell you in advance, your death is not an ordinary death. It will be very difficult to preserve your soul during your death. When the time comes, you will be reduced to ashes and there will be no next life."
"You still want to be the son of a wealthy businessman? Which wealthy businessman needs a son like you? If you're not doing well, you want to be reborn. Your government is owned by your family."
Jin Congcong was so angry that he had to pout and get on his horse to continue on his way. He was thinking about his curse and death all the way, and the rest of the journey was much quieter.
Bi'er glanced at Jin Congcong, who was following behind with a worried look on his face, and asked, "Princess, didn't we agree not to tell Master Jin about the curse and the catastrophe? Why are you suddenly telling him again?"
Bu Ruo's eyes darkened. "I always feel that this border incident is unusual. If I can't come back... He must know what will happen to him in the future. He should try to avoid it if possible. This is all I can do for him."
Bier was shocked. She had grown up with her master, and she had never seen her master with such a solemn expression.
"Don't be afraid, Princess. No matter what happens at the border, Bi'er will follow you. Even if we go to the underworld, Bi'er will accompany you."
Bu Ruo felt a little warm in his heart: "Why, do you want to die for the Lord?"
"I told you I don't want you to die for the Lord. Have you forgotten what the god said? I'm her disciple. Can she really watch me die?"
"Besides, I'm just a precaution. Nothing will happen easily. As your master, I have to carry you even if the sky falls. If you want my life, then we can die together."
Three days later, on a small hillside, Qian Luan and Bu Ruo dismounted and looked at the military camp not far away with frowns on their faces.
"Cen Bei, are you sure that the military camp ahead is where the Cui family army is stationed?"
Cen Bei nodded. "Yes, I'm sure it's here. Look, there's a jujube tree over there. Cen Nan mentioned it in the letter."
