Chapter 186: The Beloved Pet of the Mermaid Saint, Poison Flower
It was the great prince of Mobei, Huyan Feng.
After Hu Yanfeng confirmed that there were no cockroaches on the ground, he stopped panicking and regained his sanity.
At this moment, he was completely different from the flustered and funny look he had just had.
At this moment, he had a cold face, and was intimidating without being angry, and he also had some of the heroism and magnanimity of a grassland man.
Wusun Jin stood up, bowed to the eldest prince, and then asked, "Excuse me, eldest prince, why do you have to wait?"
Hu Yanfeng looked at Jiujiu beside Emperor Zhaoning and said, "Excuse me, little princess, how do you know that I am afraid of cockroaches?"
Even the people closest to him may not know about this.
Only he and one personal guard knew about it.
How did others know about it? And how did this little princess know about it? Now everyone in the world knows about it.
He was so angry.
"Well!" Jiujiu said, "Jiujiu didn't know that the eldest prince was afraid of cockroaches. Jiujiu just said it casually."
"Who knew you would believe it, Great Prince!"
Hu Yanfeng: “…”
Just talking?
He doesn't believe it.
There are not so many coincidences in the world, most of them are intentional.
This little princess must know something.
In order to prevent Hu Yanfeng from nagging at this question, Emperor Zhaoning said, "Okay, Lord Wu, please tell me the third question."
What is meant to come will always come.
If you can't avoid it, you might as well face it with joy.
Wusun Jin didn't want to keep talking about their Mobei prince's fear of cockroaches. It would have a bad influence, so he nodded and said, "I'll tell you now."
Wusun Jin clapped his hands, and the nineteen Mobei men went down. A little girl wearing Mobei clothes and a half-gold mask came up. She looked about eight or nine years old.
She was holding a very large object in her hand, which was covered with a red cloth and looked mysterious.
"What is this?"
"Could it be that the third problem is related to this thing covered with red cloth?"
"It looks very mysterious. This third problem must not be simple either."
The ministers below were whispering.
Wusun Jin sneered and motioned to the girl to remove the red cloth covering the thing.
In an instant, a small iron cage appeared.
And in that small iron cage, there was a little white fluffy thing.
Not only did the thing look weird, it was also lying there motionless, as if it was asleep and would never wake up.
"This is……"
Emperor Zhaoning looked at the little white thing, which had only one eye and one ear, and looked very strange. But he felt it was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
But for a moment, I couldn't remember.
The officials of the Western Chu court also had difficulty remembering.
"This thing is called Poison Flower!" Wusun Jin introduced, "It's an ancient beast from thousands of years ago. It's now extinct. There's only this one left. I'm sure everyone knows it."
Poisonous flower?
As soon as this name came out, everyone remembered it.
This was the pet that the Mermaid Saint subdued.
Because she can detoxify and looks cute, the Mermaid Saint named her Duhuahua.
Moreover, this poisonous flower has an extremely long lifespan and can live for thousands of years. Its hair can also be used as medicine and can detoxify all kinds of poisons.
After the death of the Holy Maiden Jiao Yan, this thing also fell into a deep sleep because it was quite spiritual. But it was just sleeping, not dead.
After that, he did not wake up for several years after several generations of Western Chu emperors.
The descendants of Western Chu really didn't know what to do, so they moved it to a temple and worshipped it, hoping that it would wake up one day.
But, he never woke up.
It was eventually stolen.
After all, it was the relic of the saint. Emperor Zhaoning, like previous emperors, sent people to look for it, but failed to find it and gradually forgot about it.
I didn't expect it to be in the hands of the Mobei people.
No wonder it looked familiar to him just now, he had seen it in a painting before.
"Lord Wu, how did the treasures of my Western Chu Kingdom end up in your hands?" Emperor Zhaoning asked unhappily.
Wusun Jin said calmly: "Emperor of Western Chu, don't think that we in Mobei stole your treasure. This thing ran to our Mobei on its own."
"You ran away on your own?"
"How is that possible? It has been sleeping all this time."
"It is sleeping, yes." Wusun Jin said, "but more than five years ago, this thing woke up and ran to our Mobei. We didn't know what it was at first, and we only found out after checking because it looked strange."
"Moreover, when we saw it, it was not as spiritual and human as rumored. It looked sick and listless."
"It was we in Mobei who gave him the best medicine that made him get better."
"But after it got better, it fell asleep again."
"It's actually like this." Emperor Zhaoning was surprised.
"So, Duhuahua chose Mobei on her own." Wusun Jin said, "It belongs to our Mobei."
"Unless, today, you people of Xichu can wake it up and let it choose you, I, Mobei, will return it. Otherwise, Poison Flower will belong to me, Mobei, from now on."
"And awakening Poison Flower is the third problem today."
Wusun Jin said calmly.
After saying this, he snorted coldly.
This poisonous flower cannot be awakened by anyone except the reincarnation of the Holy Maiden Jiaoyan.
Xichu, no one can wake it up.
Xi Chu is bound to be unable to solve this third problem.
The people of Western Chu were instantly shocked by Wusun Jin's words.
"This poisonous flower has been dormant for so many years since the Saint passed away. How can it be awakened just like that?"
"Mo Bei is obviously taking advantage of this opportunity and deliberately wants to take Du Huahua for himself."
"And announce it to the world."
"Not only that, if we, the people of Western Chu, cannot solve this third problem, there will be war."
“How shameless.”
“Obscene.”
The people of Xichu did not hide their feelings and spoke these words unscrupulously.
After Wusun Jin heard this, his face remained calm, and he snorted with disdain, saying, "People of Western Chu, since you say this poisonous flower is yours, then wake it up and let it follow you openly. I, Wusun Jin, will never stop you, and I will never take possession of it."
"Everything depends on your ability."
"If you don't have the ability to wake it up and take it away, then stop talking nonsense and accept that it has chosen Mobei and will become our Mobei treasure from now on."
Several other Mobei envoys echoed, "Lord Wu is right, speak with your ability, not just your mouth."
"Otherwise, it will only make people angry and despised."
"The only thing that can convince people is real ability."
"you……"
The ministers of Western Chu were furious.
Emperor Zhaoning raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.
There is no point in saying more. Let’s just think about how to wake up Duhuahua and make her follow them again.
"But, Poison Flower has been sleeping for so many years, how can it be awakened?"
"Unless, the Holy Lady Jiao Yan is reincarnated as a human being."
"But this is obviously impossible. Even if Saint Jiao Yan was once a Taoist, knew a lot of Taoist techniques, and had a very high level of cultivation, it would be useless. The dead cannot be resurrected, and there is no such thing as reincarnation."
"No one can wake up Poison Flower. I'm afraid the third problem cannot be solved."
Jiujiu: “…”
