Chapter 198: Xie's grandmother casts a blood curse on Xie Yuan
The Xie family's grandmother didn't dare take any risks with the Xie family. Yu Tongyan was originally an outsider, and so what if Xie Yuan was the eldest daughter? If she died, she died. After all, Xie Ci was still there, and she could marry a man from the island's aristocratic family and have another daughter.
The Xie family guards who were escorting Yu Tongyan and his daughter did not get a chance to take action before a flood killed most of them.
Jiang Yuan, who survived, saved Xie Yuan. Knowing that he could not return to Xiejia Island, and unable to bear to harm little Xie Yuan again, he took Xie Yuan and stayed in the capital under an assumed name.
Jiang Yunzheng: "So I became this half-human, half-ghost appearance, is it because of Xie Jiang's curse?"
Taoist Luo nodded and shook his head: "No."
Xie Qing's gaze fell on Jiang Yunzheng.
After the flood, there were countless masters on Xiejia Island, and the high priest was not the only one who knew divination. Almost everyone concluded that Xie Yuan was still alive, so Xie Ling naturally believed this.
Taoist Luo glanced at Xie Qing and said, "I remember you said that your grandmother died seven years after Xie Yuan left the island. Every person who held power in the Xie family before your mother died of old age, but your grandmother died with blood gushing from all five orifices."
Xie Qing trembled: "What do you mean?"
Taoist Luo: "Just now I took Miss Jiang's pulse and found that she has been cursed with blood."
"I suspect your grandmother has placed a blood curse on Miss Jiang for the rest of her life. If Xie Yuan returns to the Xie family, she will suddenly die of heart failure."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience fell silent.
Xie Qing looked at Jiang Yunzheng in disbelief.
The moment Jiang Yunzheng left Beijing, the curse began to come true, and she began to experience heart palpitations for the first time.
So that's it... Jiang Yunzheng couldn't find any reason for the inexplicable heartache.
After a long while, Taoist Luo said:
"If you were just Jiang Yunzheng for your entire life and didn't know anything about the Xie family, then you would be safe for the rest of your life."
"But the Xie family showed up. From the moment you knew your identity, your journey home marked the beginning of your death."
But what they didn't expect was that the real Xie Yuan had already died.
Xie Qing sat there as if struck by lightning.
He stared at Jiang Yunzheng with red eyes, his mind full of his sister's childhood appearance.
He just wanted to take Yuan'er home.
Qi Yunshen grabbed Jiang Yunzheng's hand, his eyelids slightly raised, staring at Taoist Luo, "I don't care about what happens on your island. Is there no way to save her health now?"
Taoist Master Luo had already taken Jiang Yunzheng's pulse.
"Her body is now exhausted. Only someone with extremely strong willpower can cast a blood curse. From ancient times to the present, no one has been able to break it."
Qi Yunshen's eyes, as deep as the abyss, stared straight at Taoist Luo.
"What if I change my body?"
Taoist Luo jumped up in shock, pointing at Qi Yunshen, then at Jiang Yunzheng:
"You're simply delusional. Xie Yuan passed away several days ago. She was lucky enough to live in this body for a while, which was God's mercy!"
"To live in this world by taking over someone else's body is against the will of heaven and is sheer treason! You borrowed someone else's body, so you have to bear the consequences of their karma! After all this twists and turns, is this even worth it? In the end, it's her own karma that's damaged!"
There was a full moon in the sky. It didn't snow in Hangzhou tonight, but the biting wind was blowing against the windows.
Jiang Yunzheng's face turned pale. She looked at Qi Yunshen, tears streaming down her face. She pointed at herself and said, "She and I..."
Qi Yunshen patted Jiang Yunzheng's thin back: "No, it has nothing to do with you. It was purely an accident that you entered her body."
Xu Jingyang and Jiang Yunzheng are cousins and their horoscopes are compatible.
The moment Xu Jingyang's soul returned happened to be the moment Jiang Yunzheng left the world.
Jiang Yunzheng was breathing very quickly.
Jiang Yunzheng originally thought that maybe after Xie Qing took her back to the Xie family, she could die peacefully. The person who should have died early unexpectedly came four years later and met the person she wanted to see, fulfilling her wish.
She didn't want Qi Yunshen to go against fate and change her fate, and she didn't want Qi Yunshen to bear other people's debts for her.
But at this moment, Jiang Yunzheng suddenly covered her heart, her lips lost color, she grabbed the back of the chair and hunched over, the endless pain spreading from her heart to her limbs, the pain was like a tight vine that kept entangling Jiang Yunzheng's heart.
Qi Yunshen hugged Jiang Yunzheng, his hands trembling: "Jingyang!"
Jiang Yunzheng frowned and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Even blood was spreading from his ears.
Taoist Luo hurried forward and took Jiang Yunzheng's pulse. "Hurry and send her to the bed. I'll give her acupuncture to stabilize her heart pulse!"
After an hour of tossing and turning, Jiang Yunzheng's body gradually stabilized.
During the entire process, Xie Qing stood at the door like a statue.
During all these years of searching for Xie Yuan, he and his mother were like two fools.
If they had never looked for Xie Yuan, Xie Yuan would have died in the man-eating stone mansion's backyard.
But if they found Xie Yuan, when her sister knew her identity, it would be the beginning of her death.
It was fate that made my sister die no matter what.
When Yuan'er left Xie's Island, he was still a little kid. When he boarded the ship, his sister waved to him and said, "Mom and brother, please wait for us at home. We will be back soon."
This separation is for a lifetime.
Qi Yunshen came out of the inner room, followed by Taoist Luo.
Qi Yunshen's voice was surprisingly calm: "If there is a body that is the same as before, can you help her go back?"
Taoist Luo was stunned: "The original body? What do you mean, didn't she die a long time ago?"
Qi Yunshen pursed his lips and said, "A body exactly the same as the original one, send her soul into it."
Hearing this, Xie Qing frowned and looked at Qi Yunshen: "What are you going to do?"
Qi Yunshen: "Ancient tradition says that the descendants of Leizu in Shu can create a doll by wrapping it with silk from silkworms they have personally raised, and offering it with secret rituals, and it can be reborn as a human."
Qi Yunshen's words were like thunder out of the blue.
Xie Qing murmured, "You're simply crazy."
Taoist Priest Luo wanted to curse but couldn't bring himself to do so. "The so-called secret method is nothing more than a balance between merit and life span. You are all fools!"
Qi Yunshen: "Can you just say yes or no?"
A few days ago, at Baiyun Temple, we had missed the opportunity. It would take many more years for the stars to align and the energy to be distributed.
Taoist Luo frowned and said, "I've never done this before. My magical powers are limited. I've only heard my master mention this method. If you really want to try it, you can only go to Xiejia Island to find my master."
