Changsheng: I have been in Jiaofang Division for thousands of years

He slowly explained: "Back then, the poor monk, like Sima Tongsheng, had reached the end of his life, but he was still unable to break through the realm of heaven and man."

"We were both very desperate. We tried our best to find a way to prolong our lifespan or break through the realm of heaven and man. Finally, Sima Tongsheng found the poor monk and said that he might have a solution to our predicament."

"That's when the poor monk found out that the Sima family of the royal family actually had a "Secret History of the Royal Family", which was kept by the emperors of each generation of the Sima family."

"Except for the emperor of the Sima family, no one is allowed to read it, and even most of the royal family's children don't even know the existence of "The Secret History of the Royal Family."

"Then what is recorded in the "Secret History of the Royal Family"?" Zhao Mu asked.

"The record is that since the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty, all the secret events that have occurred, most of which have not been recorded in the historical books of the outside world, or there are only a few words of records."

Mu Xinzhi continued: "Sima Tongsheng told the poor monk that it is recorded in the "Secret History of the Royal Family" that in the totem temple of the Northern Mang Kingdom, there is a supreme treasure - a nine-color glazed cup, which probably contains The secret of immortality."

"The nine-color glazed cup is kept by the totem temple, and the high priests of the past dynasties personally keep it, and try their best to crack the secret."

"It's just a pity that the Totem Temple has been researched for thousands of years, but the understanding of the nine-color glazed cup is still superficial, and it is impossible to figure out the real secret of this treasure."

"But even if it's just superficial, the Totem Temple has also used this to research a rare panacea—the Great Vajra Pill, which can add 20 years to a person's lifespan."

"Great Vajra Pill, was it researched from the nine-color glazed cup?" Zhao Mu was surprised.

"Naturally, otherwise, how could those reckless people from Beimang Kingdom have researched this miraculous pill?"

Mu Xinzhi snorted coldly, "You can make the Great Vajra Pill just by looking at it. You can imagine how mysterious the nine-color glazed cup itself is?"

"The "Secret History of the Royal Family" also records that Duke Wei Zhanxiong was ordered to attack the Beimang Kingdom back then. In fact, he secretly obtained a secret order from the new Emperor Chu, that is, to seize the nine-color glazed cup at all costs."

"It's a pity that after the invasion of the Totem Temple, there was a fierce fight between the two sides. At that time, the high priest of the Totem Temple, in order to prevent the war hero from taking the nine-colored glazed cup, directly threw the colored glazed cup into the flames."

"In the end, no one expected that the nine-color glazed lamp suddenly burst out with terrible power because of the burning of the flame. At that time, all the people present were suppressed to death except Zhanxiong, and the nine-color glazed lamp has since disappeared. trace."

"In addition, although Zhanxiong didn't die, he was already infused with the power of the nine-colored glazed lamp, but he didn't know it at the time."

"After the class teacher returned to the court, Emperor Xin Chu secretly summoned Zhan Xiong and asked about the nine-color glazed cup. At that time, there were only the two of them in the room."

"At that moment, a soul suddenly rushed out of Zhanxiong's body, it was the soul of the high priest."

"It turns out that although the high priest was killed by the raging fire, his soul entered Zhanxiong's body with the power of the nine-colored glass cup, and he didn't show up until he met the new Emperor Chu."

"The High Priest hated the new Emperor Chu and Zhanxiong extremely, and wanted to kill them both for revenge, but unfortunately, his soul was already extremely weak at that time, and he was powerless to attack at all, let alone hurt them directly."

"So the high priest used the remaining power of the nine-color glazed cup to swear to the sky to curse the new Emperor Chu and Zhanxiong."

"He cursed the new Emperor Chu to be extinct, and also cursed that after the new Emperor Chu died, he would turn into a demon corpse with neither human nor ghost, and live in pain forever in the world."

"At the same time, he also cursed that one day Zhanxiong would die at the hands of the demon corpse transformed by the new Emperor Chu. He believed that being killed by the person he respected the most would make Zhanxiong die with regret."

Hearing this, Zhao Mu suddenly realized.

In fact, he had been wondering all the time, why did the new Emperor Chu turn into a demon corpse after his death, and somehow ran out of the imperial mausoleum to kill Zhanxiong?

At first, he thought that the new Emperor Chu turned into a demon corpse because of the demonic aura of the demon blood jade.

Unexpectedly, the root of everything lies in the nine-color glazed cup.

Zhao Mu didn't expect that there was such a secret behind Zhanxiong's attack on Beimang Kingdom.

Just like what he said to Hei Jiao just now, no conspiracy or secret in this world can hide from time.

It is precisely because Zhao Mu has lived long enough that the secrets of those years will resurface in front of him now.

Mu Xinzhi continued: "Afterwards, the new Emperor Chu recorded everything in the "Secret History of the Royal Family" and blocked the news from the outside world, so no one in the Great Jin Dynasty at that time knew about the nine-color glazed cup."

"After Sima Tongsheng told the poor monk about these things, the two of us left the capital together and rushed to the Totem Temple secretly, hoping to find a nine-color glazed lamp to extend our life."

"But it turns out that some things are taboo for mortals. The two of us worked hard and finally found the nine-color glazed cup in this underground palace."

"But after the trigger, both of us ended up miserable. The poor monk was directly shattered and died, leaving only a soul, alone in this underground palace for 200 years."

"This kind of loneliness can really drive people crazy."

"As for Sima Tongsheng, his soul was shaken away, leaving only an immortal skin, which can be described as desolate."

"Hey, sometimes when I think about it, the two of us might as well have died in peace back then, otherwise why would we be suffering now?"

Mu Xinzhi sighed.

Zhao Mu thought of Zhou Yuniang.

It seems that although Zhou Yuniang became emperor back then, she had never seen "The Secret History of the Royal Family", otherwise, she would have known these things long ago.

But thinking about it, Zhou Yuniang had forcibly seized the throne from the Sima family after all.

The members of the Sima family hated her deeply, so how could they let her know about the existence of "Secret History of the Royal Family"?

wrong.

Zhao Mu shook his head suddenly.

Back then Zhou Yuniang used the Puppet Pill to control Sima Tongsheng's son, Sima Hongyi.

Later, after Sima Hongyi succeeded to the throne, he should have inherited "The Secret History of the Royal Family" from Sima Tongsheng.

With Sima Hongyi's loyalty, how could it be possible not to hand over the secret history to Zhou Yuniang?

Zhao Mu frowned slightly, and asked, "Didn't Sima Tongsheng give the "Secret History of the Royal Family" to Sima Hongyi before he left?"

"No."

Mu Xinzhi shook his head and said, "Sima Tongsheng said at the time that the two of us went to the Totem Temple to find the nine-color glazed lamp. This matter should not add any risk, let alone tell anyone, so he took "The Secret History of the Royal Family" away at that time. .”

That's it!

Zhao Mu suddenly realized.

Chapter 162

Capital, Jiaofang Division.

Lady Lianxin saw off the guests who were listening to the piano, and was about to go back to the attic to rest.

Suddenly, Feng Yumian led a scholar in.

The scholar has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and has an elegant temperament, which makes people feel that he is a gentleman at first glance.

"Sister Feng, Mr. Zhao, why are you here?"

The pity lady asked.

This scholar is Zhao Zhengfeng, a scholar who failed the imperial examination some time ago.

This person's talent is average, but he is quite upright, at least he doesn't look like a person with bad intentions at the moment.

Feng Yumian and Zhao Zhengfeng met on the day the imperial examinations were released.

At that time, Zhao Zhengfeng had just failed the exam and was depressed, so he found a small forest and was about to hang himself, but happened to be rescued by Feng Yumian who passed by.

Afterwards, the two made several appointments to meet each other, and gradually fell in love with each other.

"Sister Lianxin, my sister is here today to ask you for a favor."

"Even though my sister said, as long as my sister can do it, I will definitely help you with all my strength."

Feng Yumian looked at Zhao Zhengfeng tenderly, and said, "Sister, I want you to go and tell Lord Judge Du to find a way to redeem me and leave Jiaofangsi."

"Redemption?"

Lady Lianxin looked at the two of them: "Have you really decided?"

"Well, it's decided."

Feng Yumian said with a happy face: "After I am ready to redeem myself, I will marry Zhengfeng. The two of us have no relatives and no reason, and the marriage is easy to do. Sister Lianxin must come when the time comes."

Zhao Zhengfeng also cupped his hands and said, "Xiaosheng will definitely take good care of Yumian, and please pity my lady."

"Sister, you also know that the gold medal oiran doesn't mean that he can redeem himself if he wants to. I have the money for the redemption, but I'm afraid it will be made difficult by the judge, so I want you to help me talk about it."

"Everyone in the official circle now knows that my sister, you have a very close relationship with that Deacon of the Ziwei Taoist Outer Sect. I believe that as long as you come forward, the judge will not dare to make things difficult for me."

After Feng Yumian finished speaking, she looked at Mrs. Lianxin pleadingly.

"Okay, I'll go and tell the judge."

The pity lady nodded.

Actually, she didn't really want Feng Yumian to marry Zhao Zhengfeng so soon.

After all, their acquaintance with Zhao Zhengfeng was too short, after all, they didn't know enough.

But she also knew that her only friend in the Jiaofang Division was a very persistent person, and once a decision was made on some things, it would never change.

Even if she doesn't agree to help today, after Feng Yumian returns, she will try her best to redeem herself, and there will probably be a lot of trouble.

So if you can't stop it, let's help.

It's just that this time I'm busy, I must borrow that person's name.

"Obviously I don't want to get too close to him, but I get involved with him again and again. Could it be that I was really destined to be with him in my previous life?"

The pity lady thought helplessly.

……

Totem temple, underground palace.

Zhao Mu asked Mu Xinzhi, "Zen Master, where is the "Secret History of the Imperial Family" now? Did Sima Tongsheng tell you?"

"No."

Mu Xinzhi shook his head and said, "The "Secret History of the Royal Family" contains too many secrets and even a lot of scandals about the royal family, so Sima Tongsheng just talked to the poor monk about the nine-color glazed cup. , but did not let the poor monk see it with his own eyes."

"The poor monk remembers that after Sima Tongsheng left the capital, he hid the "Secret History of the Royal Family" on the road, and planned to get it back when he left the Totem Temple."

"But now that he is dead, no one in this world knows where the "Secret History of the Royal Family" is hidden. It may have rotted in the ground, or it may not be dug out by someone by accident."

"Pity."

Zhao Mu felt a little regretful.

In fact, he really wanted to see, what exactly was recorded in "The Secret History of the Royal Family"?

The Great Jin Dynasty has been established for almost 2000 years, so there must be many interesting things recorded in the secret history.

If you can take a look, you may find something useful.

He shook his head and asked, "Zen Master, where did you find the nine-color glazed cup?"

"It's over there, the poor monk will take you there."

Mu Xinzhi's spirit body floated up slightly, but just as he left the altar, he stopped suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Mu was puzzled.

"Wait a minute, there is something that the poor monk needs to deal with first."

Mu Xinzhi turned to look at Liang Kun, his eyes became cold.

Liang Kun's heart was terrified: "Why do you look at me like this?"

"You refined Sima Tongsheng's corpse into a puppet?"

Mu Xinzhi's tone was serious, he didn't look like a great virtuous monk, but more like a mentally twisted lunatic.

"What do you want to do?" Liang Kun realized that something was wrong and wanted to run away.

"Hehe, it's nothing, I just want to kill you."

"Damn."

Liang Kun's expression changed drastically, and he turned around and ran away.

But Mu Xin knew that the speed of the spirit body was astonishing, and it blocked in front of him in an instant.

"Whatever Sima Tongsheng and the poor monk said, it can be regarded as sharing adversity. You actually refined him into a puppet. You really don't know how to live or die."

"If the poor monk doesn't kill you today, wouldn't he be sorry for his friend? Donor Chu, you shouldn't object, right?"

In the last sentence, Mu Xinzhi was asking Zhao Mu.

"The Zen master is free. This person is full of resentment. It is obvious that he has committed many murders. Death is not a pity."

Zhao Mu looked cold.

He didn't care about Liang Kun's life or death, but he found Mu Xinzhi's current state very interesting.

I don't know if it's because of being alone in this underground palace for 200 years that Mu Xin's heart has changed drastically.
