Chapter 105: God Enters the Dream
Bright red blood drops dripped into an ancient bronze hexagram plate that he had taken out at some point in time!
The hexagram plate was of an ancient style and engraved with mysterious runes.
Everyone held their breath!
Watching the blood spreading and flowing in the hexagram plate,
Then!
An incredible scene happened!
The bloodstains that were originally flowing freely seemed to be pulled by an invisible force!
Slowly, slowly, condensing and transforming...
at last!
In the center of the hexagram plate, a clear image was formed.
A curled up, lifelike figure—
Baby shape!!
"ah!"
Some timid concubines screamed and almost fainted!
"The blood has formed a fetus!"
"Oh my God! A miracle! It really is a miracle!"
The emperor and the empress dowager's pupils suddenly shrank and their bodies stiffened!
Lu Jiuxiao looked at the bloody baby in the hexagram plate, and an almost crazy piety appeared on his face!
He held up the hexagram plate high, and his voice was like an oracle!
"Your Majesty! Her Majesty the Queen Mother! Please look!"
"This is the reincarnation of 'Mars Star Lord'!"
"Mars! The master of killing! He is the god of war!"
"The Star Lord has compassion for the suffering of the people and cannot bear to see war break out again!"
"So I came to the mortal world in the form of a mortal, hoping to use my divine power to quell the world's wars!"
His voice became more and more passionate, with a power to bewitch people!
"The blood patterns on this hexagram are the token of the God of War's advent!"
He suddenly pointed to the southeast, the direction of the side courtyard where Chen Jiao was!
"And the Lord of the Southeast is the one who inherits the destiny and conceives on behalf of the heavens!!"
There was deathly silence in the hall!
Only in the bronze hexagram plate, the outline of the bloody baby emitted a strange and enchanting light!
At this moment, the emperor's brows suddenly twisted into the shape of a "川"!
His sharp eyes were like an eagle's, fixed on the fanatical Lu Jiuxiao on the ground!
The surprise and suspicion in his eyes faded away, leaving only cold scrutiny and a hint of barely perceptible disgust!
"Lu Jiuxiao."
The emperor's voice was not loud, but it carried a heavy sense of impending storm pressure.
"What nonsense!"
He spat out four words coldly!
Every word was like an ice cube hitting the ground!
Lu Jiuxiao's body stiffened, and the almost insane piety on his face froze instantly!
The emperor stood with his hands behind his back, his body straight as a pine tree under his dragon robe, his voice revealing the majesty and unquestionable authority of an emperor!
"What heir of God! What Mars!"
"It's just some charlatanism and sorcery!"
He looked at the bloody baby in the divination plate, and a hint of sneer flashed in his eyes.
"How could I believe your absurd words?!"
Lu Jiuxiao knelt on the ground, his voice trembling: "Your Majesty! I have been in the Imperial Observatory for many years and have never seen such a scene! This concerns the fate of the country, Your Majesty cannot help but believe it!"
A complex emotion flashed across the empress dowager's old face.
She gently tugged at the emperor's sleeve and lowered her voice, with a hint of urgency that only they could hear.
"emperor……"
Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes involuntarily drifted towards the blood-colored hexagram plate.
"The war in the northern border has been going on for a long time and has troubled us for a long time,"
"Those barbarians are very ferocious. They harass the border every year, wasting countless national resources..."
She paused, and her voice lowered, with a barely perceptible hint of anticipation.
"If this child is truly the god of war as he claims, and if he can truly intimidate the barbarians in the northern border..."
"Even if it's just a sign, it can calm the hearts of the army and the people..."
"Mother!"
The emperor suddenly interrupted the empress dowager, his voice suddenly rising with a rare hint of anger!
He turned his head and looked at his mother with sharp eyes!
"A gentleman does not speak of strange things! The rebellion in the northern border depends on whether our Dayin cavalry is elite! It depends on whether there is enough food, fodder and weapons! It depends on whether the generals are properly deployed!"
His voice is powerful!
"What does this have to do with a fetus of unknown origin?!"
"How can you place your hopes on something so illusory?!"
The empress dowager turned pale after being scolded by the emperor. She opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing. She just looked at Lu Jiuxiao with complicated eyes.
Right now!
Lu Jiuxiao, kneeling on the ground, seemed not to hear the emperor's rebuke!
He suddenly raised his head!
His eyes were red, and his face showed an even more weird and fanatical expression!
"Woo La... Mani... Hum..."
He started mumbling to himself!
The syllables uttered were extremely strange and did not sound like human speech at all!
It seems like a mysterious spell from ancient times!
The voice had a strange penetrating power that made people feel numb in their hearts and their scalps tighten!
As he chanted, the blood-colored baby pattern on the bronze hexagram plate seemed to become brighter!
"Heaven's will is clear! God's will cannot be violated!"
Lu Jiuxiao stood up suddenly!
He held up the bloodstained bronze hexagram plate and looked around wildly!
Then!
Without hesitation, he turned around and rushed out of the hall!
direction--
It was the southeast side courtyard where Chen Jiao was!
"Stop him!"
The emperor shouted sternly!
But Lu Jiuxiao's speed was astonishingly fast, like a ghost!
Moreover, he looked like a madman at the moment, chanting spells non-stop, and exuding a strange aura that made people afraid to approach!
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! A miracle is about to happen! Follow me!"
His voice came from afar, carrying a kind of bewitching power!
The emperor's face turned pale!
The Queen Mother followed him subconsciously!
The other concubines and ministers looked at each other, and then, as if possessed by a ghost, followed behind with surprise and curiosity!
The group marched through the palace road and headed straight for the remote courtyard!
The cold wind is howling and dark clouds are pressing down!
The atmosphere is extremely weird!
Soon, everyone arrived at the gate of the side courtyard where Chen Jiao lived.
The courtyard gate was closed, and the two eunuchs guarding it stood there with pale faces, their bodies shaking like sieves!
Just as everyone stopped and the emperor was about to order the door to be kicked down—
Something strange happened suddenly!
"ah--!"
One of the eunuchs guarding the gate suddenly let out a shrill scream!
His eyes suddenly widened and his eyeballs almost popped out!
The whole person fell to the ground as if struck by lightning!
His whole body was convulsing violently! He was foaming at the mouth!
"God...man of God!!"
He screamed hoarsely and terrified with all his strength!
The voice was distorted and filled with boundless fear!
“I saw it!!! I saw it!!!”
"A... a shining golden man... a god wearing golden armor!!"
He waved his hands wildly in the air, as if trying to grab something!
“Just…just flew from the sky…into Miss Shen’s room!!”
“Absolutely true!!”
"A god entered my dream! It was a god who entered my dream!!"
He shouted and kowtowed frantically, and soon his forehead was bleeding!
Looks like crazy!
Like... a sudden hysterical attack!!
