The substitute princess of the general who crossed over

Xia Lin lifted the corner of her skirt, and finally set foot on this road again.

Every time she came in, her heart would be heavier than the last time, so heavy that she could hardly lift her head.

It was still the familiar pair of solitary disabled hands, it was still the cell with low air pressure, and there were no female prisoners who were the only ones who would look up before. Everyone buried their heads, buckled the mottled and peeling wall, and erected the rusty railings.

Xu Shengqiu's room was still the same, but the owner was no longer there.

Xia Lin leaned against the door, looking up at the dark ceiling.

How could Qin Xi keep Xu Shengqiu?She must have known that she would come to him again, so she transferred Xu Shengqiu a long time ago, so what should she do now?

Xia Lin's eyes fell on Xu Shengqiu's bed, and somehow an idea popped up.

She stepped to the side of the bed and tore off the quilt without even thinking about it. She opened layer after layer like crazy, but she still couldn't find what she needed.

The missing page seems to have moved with Xu Shengqiu.

She has to find Xu Shengqiu, only Xu Shengqiu knows everything, and only he can control everything.Since he could bring himself here without making a sound, he must be able to bring him back without making a sound.

All desperate hopes are on him, but where will Qin Xi hide him?

In a few days, Xia Lin searched almost all the corners of the courtyard, and almost turned over the ground for inspection, but still did not find a place similar to the secret room of the study.

She racked her brains and couldn't figure out where Qin Xi could hide him. Could it be that Xu Shengqiu has been sent out of Taohuayuan?

In the scorching summer, Xia Lin sat by the lake, braving the scorching sun and forced herself into a cold sweat.With a flick of her wrist, the fish in the lake that were about to bite the bait were scared away.

Scared the snake... That fish never dared to come again.

Xia Lin simply put down the fishing rod, called Zhiwen to him, and asked, "Zhiwen, do you know..."

"I don't know!" Before he could speak, Zhiwen replied like a conditioned reflex.

Xia Lin turned to look at her, and smiled faintly, "I haven't asked anything yet."

Zhiwen pinched the hem of his clothes and didn't dare to speak anymore, his eyes rolled left and right, and he didn't know where to fall nervously.

Xia Lin squeezed Zhiwen's chin, forcing her to look up at herself, "Where is Xu Shengqiu?"

At that moment, Xia Lin's eyes radiated a chill, Zhiwen was so frightened that she almost cried out, "Princess... I really don't know, so don't embarrass me..."

As soon as the words fell, Zhiwen felt that the hands on her chin were gradually loosening. She hurriedly knelt down and begged Xia Lin for forgiveness.

"Forget it, the tea is cold, let's make a new pot."

After knowing the order, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, stood up gracefully, smiled at Xia Lin, took the teapot and retreated.

After Zhiwen left, Xia Lin set her sights on the rockery by the lake.

Just now when I asked Zhiwenzhi if she knew where Xu Shengqiu was, her eyes flicked left and right, but she still tried her best not to look in the direction of the rockery.

But when she was about to stop asking questions and let Zhiwen back down, she subconsciously looked towards the rockery.

People, it's all like this. When I try my best to avoid it, I'm afraid that others will see the clues. There is no deep taboo, and it will make people feel weird.On the contrary, after the alarm is lifted, you have to pay attention to what you are protecting and make sure it is safe.

Xu Shengqiu must be near this rockery.

Xia Lin closed her eyes, lay on the soft rattan chair and fell asleep, but she was not in a hurry to find him.At this time, Qin Xi is coming back soon, if she enters the secret room, it is difficult to grasp the timing, if she is really bumped into by Qin Xi, all previous efforts will be wasted.

Xia Lin was on the second day, when Qin Xi went out, she went to the rockery. Before leaving, she said a word to Zhiwen, "Zhiwen, you should know that you and I are both from the palace, and we are both from the palace. You are my servant first, and then Qin Xi's, understand?"

After finishing speaking, she left. Zhiwen was stunned behind her, but never followed her.

With the previous experience, finding the secret path this time can be regarded as much easier.

The mechanism of the rockery was easily cracked by her.Holding the corner of her skirt, Xia Lin walked in without hesitation.

Under the rockery, there is also a cave, no different from the secret passage in the study.After several turns, it finally came to the end, a door opened to the north, and Xu Shengqiu was sitting inside.

Xia Lin stood still at the door, the furnishings of this room were the same as those in the study, Xu Shengqiu was still sitting at the table, holding a book in his hand, and he hadn't flipped through it for some time.

Hearing a sound outside the door, Xu Shengqiu turned his head and saw Xia Lin standing at the door in a blue dress.Originally, he thought that after such an accident, Xia Lin would be devastated. Judging from her fainting last time, this incident had a great impact on her.

But now, the person standing in front of him is still full of energy, dignified and generous.

"Master Xu." Xia Lin walked in slowly.

Xu Shengqiu's eyebrows flickered, and he said slowly, "I'm not a national teacher."

Xia Lin didn't care whether he refuted or not, she just sat down beside Xu Shengqiu, "Xu Shenghuai, is your master?"

Xu Shengqiu looked at that delicate little face and was speechless.

"Xu Shenghuai brought Empress Lizhao back to life, and you brought me back to life for Qin Xi. There are quite a few people in Bailong Temple who are capable."

Xu Shengqiu lowered his eyes, making it difficult to see his expression clearly, and only said in a low voice, "You shouldn't be here."

Xia Lin sneered, "Then where should I be? Do you cry every day guarding the peach blossom garden with thousands of bones and corpses?"

Xu Shengqiu stopped talking, picked up the book, and didn't want to talk to Xia Lin anymore.

"Master Xu." Xia Lin pulled the book out of Xu Shengqiu's hand and put it aside.

She stood up slowly, then suddenly knelt down on her knees, facing Xu Shengqiu.

Xu Shengqiu was horrified, and quickly supported Xia Lin to stand up, but Xia Lin's legs seemed to have grown roots in vain, and they were firmly rooted in the ground. No matter how Xu Shengqiu pulled her, she remained motionless.

"Your Highness...Your Highness, don't do this..."

Xia Lin looked up at him, and said, "You know, I'm not some kind of eldest princess, let alone your highness."

Hearing this, Xu Shengqiu stopped holding Xia Lin's hand for an instant, and then slowly let go.

"A monk should take compassion as his heart and all things as his own. When you rebelled against the destiny for Qin Xi, can you raise your head and be worthy of the Buddha who worships, and bow your head and be worthy of innocent creatures?"

Xia Lin spoke softly, but in Xu Shengqiu's ears, it was indeed a punch.

"And you stained Qin Xi's hands with blood, and your conscience is dusty. Have you never felt any uneasiness in your heart?"

"I was also born by my father and mother, and I was also the heart and soul of others. You brought me from a thousand years later. Have you ever thought that this is also the pain of a blunt knife for my parents?"

"I know you can't help yourself. Because of the constraints of Bailong Temple, you are forced to help the evildoers, but have you ever thought that the life of Bailong Temple is trampling on the bones of thousands of dead women in Taohuayuan?"

"When you're sleeping...are you really not afraid?"

"Those tongueless people may not be able to accuse you of crimes in the Hall of Yama, but their eyes can. Have you seen those eyes full of hatred and despair? You! Dare to look!?"

At the end, Xia Lin's words clanged and she cried blood, and those words turned into bows and arrows that were blocked, piercing Xu Shengqiu's heart.As for Xu Shengqiu, his face was already full of ashes. He sat slumped on the chair, his eyes fell on the ground, and he didn't move for a long time.Just for a moment, a tear fell down his cheek, and then he covered his face and cried out sadly.

Xia Lin didn't speak any more, but she was already choked up.

The two wept silently until Xu Shengqiu said, "What does Miss Xia want me to do for you?"

Xia Lin raised her sleeves to wipe away her tears, and got up from the ground with her legs propped up. She had knelt for too long, and knelt too hard, and she couldn't feel her knees. It was Xu Shengqiu who kindly pushed the chair over and she sat on it. .

Xia Lin took out a page from her bosom, put it in front of Xu Shengqiu, and said flatly, "I want you to help me refine the Transformation Gu."

It turned out that that page was one of the missing pages.As early as when Xia Lin entered the secret room of the study again, she had already hid the page about the Transformation Gu in her bosom.

She knew that time was running out at that time, and Qin Xi would be back soon.When Qin Xi came back, the direction of the matter would no longer be under her control, so these pages would also be taken away by Qin Xi, so she could only act first.

Fortunately, before that, she had already read through all the missing pages. She knew that the most important Gu technique for her was Transformation Gu, so if there were no others, there would be nothing.

Xu Shengqiu picked up the page and read it carefully.

"Transformation Gu, can break the effect of soul-transforming Gu, and make the soul return to its place..."

Xia Lin nodded, "I also know a kind of life-fixing Gu, which is used for soul-transforming Gu users, to keep their life in the body of the deceased, and fully enjoy their body."

"Yes, General Qin did ask me to refine such a Gu."

"So, what I want to ask you to help me is to refine the transformational life Gu, and replace the transformational life Gu with the solid life Gu."

Xia Lin looked at Xu Shengqiu, her gaze was calm, as if these Gu techniques had nothing to do with her, and whether she did it or not had no effect on her.

Xu Shengqiu didn't answer immediately, he just looked at the page and fell into deep thought.

Xia Lin knew not to be in a hurry, but she still decided to take a strong medicine.

"Of course, I also know that this life-fixing Gu must be taken voluntarily. If I don't want to, Qin Xi will lose all his previous efforts, and then he can only exchange blood. I have no way to stop you, so my life will have to be sacrificed with thousands of innocent lives. pave the way with human blood."

Seeing Xu Shengqiu's eyes darken, Xia Lin took out the jade shell from his neck, showed it to Xu Shengqiu, and then said, "If we succeed, I will leave this jade shell to you. If I leave, this one Yugu is the only token connecting me, her, and the eldest princess. Since she loves the eldest princess so much, she will definitely bypass the White Dragon Temple because of this. If she still doesn't agree..."

Xia Lin suddenly thought of something, sneered, as if mocking herself, "No, she won't refuse."
