Chapter 29 Chapter 29 Li Daoxuan was wearing a long black dress...
"Old Huang."
The dark and silent torture chamber was instantly illuminated by a warm light. When the bean-sized candle flame came closer, the face of an old man could be clearly seen.
Old Huang asked, "Your Highness, do you need water?"
Li Daoxuan tugged at his arm, "Untie it for me."
Looking closely, Li Daoxuan was wearing a black robe with his collar slightly open due to his previous struggle. His bloodless wrists, waist, and neck were all shackled with iron chains as thick as a baby's fist, restricting his movements.
Old Huang was horrified. "Ah? But, but it's not time yet! Your Highness, think again!"
Li Daoxuan closed his eyes and endured the restlessness in his heart, "I don't want to say it a second time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Huang immediately took out the jade key and untied the heavy chains for him. When the heavy iron chain on his neck fell to the ground, Li Daoxuan immediately stood up, picked up his sword and walked out without looking back.
Old Huang, holding up a lamp from behind, stammered, "Your Highness, where are you going?"
"have no idea."
Old Huang could only watch Li Daoxuan, who was still under the influence of the Gu, walk out without looking back. He secretly prayed in his heart that His Highness would not lose control and not cause any deaths.
Normally, when the moon is full, the poison in the prince's body will erupt for three days.
During this period, the poisonous insects will constantly gnaw at the prince's internal organs, flesh and blood, affecting his mind and making him crazy. Sometimes the pain is so severe that the host will lose his mind and become a madman who only kills to vent his anger.
Old Huang first discovered that the prince was poisoned when he was eight years old. Xiang Yao was causing trouble in the world, and the Li Dynasty was in great pain. The law and order was also relatively lax. Concubine Gao and the prince were both captured in the palace by criminals. The saint sent people to search for them but to no avail. It was not until three months later that a wandering nun rescued the bloody prince.
It is said that Concubine Gao did not survive and her body has disappeared.
The prince was hanging on by a thread at that time. The nun said that there was only one way to save him, and that was to poison him. However, once poisoned, he would be accompanied by side effects that ordinary people could hardly bear.
Emperor Jingren didn't care about anything else in a hurry. For the sake of his son's life, he waved his hand and let the nun implant the poison. Later, the prince's broken meridians were really repaired, and the nun disappeared, leaving only a note that read: The poison can be removed in ten years.
Attached is a list of medicinal herbs. Although the herbs on it are difficult to find, there are ways to find them. There is only one herb that no one can find no matter how hard they try. It is the "Glass Heart". Moreover, the Glazed Heart can only be used effectively if the owner is willing to offer it. Wild Glazed Heart cannot detoxify.
Liuli Heart is a blood-red stone. Emperor Jingren secretly sent people to search the whole world for it before he could find out Liuli Heart's appearance, but Liuli Heart was still nowhere to be found.
Then, on the full moon night, everyone understood the side effects of the insect.
At that time, Young Master Gu was visiting the prince in his bedroom. The man who was chatting well the moment before suddenly banged his head against the wall in pain. Young Master Gu wanted to stop him, but he bit his wrist tightly, and his wails filled the air.
After this incident, the prince's health gradually recovered, but he became more and more closed and depressed. He could hardly speak to anyone all day, and only his former playmates could get a few words from him.
Fortunately, although the prince did not have the title of "Devil of the World" like Master Gu when he grew up, under the leadership of Master Gu, the prince's temperament also became unruly.
In short, it's good to be more lively, which is a thousand times better than that dull and silent dead fish face.
Old Huang thought so and looked at Li Daoxuan's departing back with a worried look.
.
In the pleasure boat, after several efforts of Chen Qing, the water evil was finally beaten into a pile of broken bones by the Golden Spirit Ring. In a short while, the broken bones turned into a pool of water and dissolved into the floor.
The Golden Spirit Ring seemed to be disgusted by the flesh on the Water Demon's body. As soon as it got rid of it, the golden light on its body immediately disappeared, and it shrank to its original size and lay on the ground.
Cui Ya, who had not yet recovered from her shock, quickly picked it up, tremblingly took out a few silk handkerchiefs and carefully wiped Chen Qing's golden spirit ring several times before returning it to Chen Qing.
Chen Qing touched the golden spirit ring on his forearm, walked around the chaotic crowd, and quickly walked to the side of the noble lady whose face was previously covered by the lotus. He carefully felt her pulse and found that she was still alive, but one of her three souls had been sucked away by the lotus spirit through her seven orifices.
People are born with three souls and six spirits. The three souls correspond to the fetal light, the shuangling and the youjing.
What this noble lady lost was exactly her spirit of joy.
Shuangling is a change of Yin energy, belongs to the Five Elements, governs wealth and fortune, and determines a person's intelligence, wisdom, and reaction speed.
If her soul cannot be restored for a long time, she may become known as a fool who is muddle-headed, ignorant of the changes in the world, and ignorant of human nature. She is commonly known as a stupid person.
She looked around again. Although everyone was afraid, they did not step on the lotus while running away, so no one else was affected.
Chen Qing immediately peeled the lotus off her face, and it was obvious that her face had turned gray. If her soul could not be found, she would become stupid at best, or bedridden with a chronic illness and unable to wake up, or even die after her soul left her body for fifteen days.
The noble lady was a familiar face, but Chen Qing couldn't remember where she had seen her before, so she stopped thinking about it. She took out some talisman paper and stuck it on her seven orifices to block them and prevent the soul from leaking out.
Her lost soul disappeared after being absorbed by the lotus and was not attached to the lotus.
These are lotus spirits that are not powerful enough. They can only board the ship with the help of the east wind, and can only harm people when they are unprepared. Now this one is extremely weak.
Normally, lotus spirits would directly absorb a person's three souls and six spirits and digest them to improve their spiritual power, but this one could only absorb one soul, and it also had indigestion. I don't know where it vomited this soul out.
It must be retrieved as soon as possible. Thinking of this, Chen Qing raised his knife and pierced the still struggling lotus through. A whimpering scream was heard, and the lotus in Chen Qing's hand quickly withered and rotted.
She casually threw the lotus back into the center of the lake. Following Chen Qing's instructions, the burly housekeeper immediately carried her wife back to the inner cabin.
The stern deck on the first floor was very dangerous, so the group of ladies rushed to the second floor without caring about anything else.
Zhang Gaoze, who had just finished seeing the unconscious elder sister and looked extremely bad, just followed the noise to the wooden stairs and saw Chen Qing leading a group of people to the second floor. Beside her, there was an unconscious noble lady who was carried by the head maid on her back. Someone had put a talisman on the noble lady's face.
Zhang Gaoze's expression instantly turned furious. He glared at Chen Qing, "What are you doing? Why are you sticking talismans on other people's faces?"
He knew that apart from Chen Qing who came from Xuanji Pavilion, who would carry talisman paper with her, ordinary women would not use these unconventional methods.
Chen Qing didn't have time to chat with him: "A big monster has appeared, are you afraid, Master Zhang?"
Zhang Gaoze was like a bulging sheepskin bag that would burst at the slightest provocation. He angrily shouted, "What big demon? Where is this big demon?! Today is my mother's birthday party, and Madam Shen is making such a fuss as soon as she arrives. It's obvious that she's deliberately trying to make things difficult for my Zhang family!"
The housekeeper and maidservant of the unconscious noble lady's house could not bear to see this, and they all said, "Why is Zhang Shulang so desperate! We just saw it with our own eyes. It was clearly Madam Shen who subdued the evil spirit. Why are you making such a fuss! Please, please make way and don't put my lady's life in danger!"
After hearing this, although Zhang Gaoze was surprised by the words of the old woman, he subconsciously refused to believe it.
It was obvious that the noble lady who had been unconscious was concerned about other people's lives. Zhang Gaoze immediately stepped aside to let the old woman pass by. Shen Qing was about to follow without looking back. Zhang Gaoze stopped her: "Madam Shen is not a doctor, why do you want to follow?"
Chen Qing glanced at him sideways and said succinctly, "Her soul is lost. I will go and summon it for her."
Zhang Gaoze sneered, "You even told such a lie, Madam Shen, do you think I would believe it?"
Unexpectedly, Chen Qing asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Why should Mr. Zhang believe or not when I do things? What does it have to do with you?" After saying that, she thought carefully and finally came to the conclusion, "It seems not."
After saying that, she pushed away the person who was in the way and walked away with the woman in charge.
But what she had to do now was not to summon the soul first. Summoning the soul required the assistance of other things. She did not bring everything with her, so she only hoped that Li Daoxuan, who came rushing over after hearing the sound, would have them on him.
She wanted to set up a formation to protect the people on the boat, because she didn't know what kind of evil spirits might be in the Huachun Pool.
In a moment, a blue light invisible to ordinary people spread out in the boat like a bubble, surrounding the entire pleasure boat.
In the corner of the second floor, behind an embroidered screen, a man took a sip of tea from his cup and immediately commented, "It's cold."
Behind him, a man in black, his head wrapped in black cloth and his whole body covered tightly, said, "Useless thing."
The man covered his lips and chuckled, "Isn't it? Some useless things can't even do anything to a woman. Tell me, is there any other way to deal with her?"
The man in black said, "It just so happens that he has woken up. Why not send her to the west in advance and then send the entire Shen family down to accompany her."
The man said, "Yes, since we are here and have already encountered each other, we might as well deal with it as soon as possible. He patted the man in black on the shoulder and left him to you." After that, he stood up and left.
After a long time, the man in black raised his hand and formed a seal with his hand. The formation set up by Chen Qing was broken in an instant, lightly and effortlessly.
So Shen Qing suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, shocking everyone present.
Among them, the noble lady's housekeeper reacted particularly strongly, "Madam Shen, are you okay? Are you feeling well?" She hoped that Madam Shen would be alright, as her own wife was still waiting for help!
Chen Qing's expression became a little serious. She looked through the window and looked outside the boat. The sky was covered with dark clouds, which were like a thick quilt that made people breathless. A red light that was difficult for ordinary people to see flashed faintly. It was a strange phenomenon in the sky, and a big monster was about to be born.
Her face suddenly turned pale. In her previous life, the strange phenomenon in half of the sky in East City was just like this, with a strange red light falling from the sky.
Actually, it’s ahead of schedule?
What about the Shen Mansion? Are there any unusual signs there? Will the Happy Funeral Demon appear early?
She didn't have time to think about it, because, through the horrified eyes of the crowd, she discovered that a pool of water had appeared under her feet.
Immediately, a feeling of weightlessness came over her, and Chen Qing's head became more and more dizzy. The water was like a swamp in the mud, as if thousands of hands were dragging her feet down. Before the water covered her head, Chen Qing heard Cui Ya's heartbreaking cry: "My wife——"
Finally, even the cry fell silent, and only the sound of flowing water remained in the ears.
At the moment when Shen Qing completely drowned in the whirlpool of water under her feet, a dark figure suddenly appeared above her head.
As she felt dizzy, she felt a cold hand gripping her palm. She subconsciously held the other hand tightly, as if grasping the only remaining hope.
