The prince is very fierce

Xu Buling felt that he had dug the coffin, so he stopped and used a hoe to turn over all the soil, revealing the coffin underneath which was painted black.

Zhu Manzhi took the crowbar from the side of the horse, and Xu Buling stood next to the coffin and used the crowbar to force open the coffin.

Click——

As soon as a gap was opened, black mist floated out of the coffin.

Xu Buling was caught off guard and his face changed suddenly. He held his breath and stood up suddenly, landing outside the grave. He picked up Zhu Manzhi and ran outside. He jumped ten feet away and did not stop until he was dozens of feet away.

Zhu Manzhi thought he had seen a ghost, and threw away the torch. He hugged Xu Buling's neck, screamed "baaaah~" and buried his little face in Xu Buling's arms.

"It's indeed Dragon Locking Gu..."

Xu Buling hugged Zhu Manzhi with one hand and raised his hand to caress her back twice, as if he were holding a daughter.

The black mist coming out of the coffin made Xu Buling feel familiar.

Last year in the Weihe area, he had a high fever and was bedridden in the carriage. When more than a hundred assassins came to kill him, he happened to come over. Hunhun used his instincts to fight with a sword. The thieves smashed a bottle at his feet, and it contained... This kind of black fog.

Thinking of the severe pain that eroded his limbs and bones, Xu Buling still feels chills in his heart when he recalls it. If it weren't for his inhumanly strong physique and tenacious desire to survive, he might have committed suicide at that time.

The person in the coffin has been dead for ten years, but the poison is still there, which shows how domineering this dragon-locking poison is.

While Xu Buling was thinking, he suddenly heard a whisper:

"Buddha and Taoist ancestors bless you. This little girl has no intention of offending ghosts and gods. If you want to find it, just look for Prince Xu. He dug the grave..."

Xu Buling came to his senses immediately and turned his head to look. Zhu Manzhi sat on his arm with his face buried in his arms, shirking responsibility incoherently.

Xu Buling's face was full of black lines and he patted her buttocks: "Zhu Da Sword God, are you just a guard like this?"

Zhu Manzhi trembled all over, shut up quickly, carefully opened his eyes and took a look, and only after confirming that there was nothing about Friday, did he realize that he jumped out of Xu Buling's arms with a sound of "Ah-", He lowered his head and smiled.

Xu Buring shook his head. He didn't share her knowledge. He took the wine gourd from his waist and took a sip. He also tore a piece of cloth from his clothes, soaked it with strong wine, and covered his face. Zhu Manzhi’s black scarf also follows the same pattern.

After waiting outside for half a quarter of an hour, until the black fog in the coffin dissipated, the two of them walked forward cautiously.

Xu Buling jumped into the pit and opened the coffin completely, revealing the body inside under the light of the fire.

The corpse had already become a skeleton, but it was not white bones. It was black from head to toe, and most of it was broken.

Xu Buling held a piece of leg bone with his handkerchief and picked it up for inspection. He just pinched it with his hands and it broke into pieces. It was extremely fragile.

Zhu Manzhi looked at it in fear and whispered: "Is this caused by the Locking Dragon Gu?"

Xu Buling took a look at the marks on the bones: "The poison eroded the limbs and bones, and the bones were all broken. It must be Dragon Locking Gu."

Xu Buling jumped into the pit, placed his leg bone on the snow, then cut his finger with a knife and dripped on the leg bone.

A drop of blood quickly turned into black color, but there was no reaction.

Xu Bu Ling frowned, surprise first flashed in his eyes, and then a bit of depression.

Zhu Manzhi stayed far away and asked in confusion: "What is this?"

Xu Buling was silent for a moment and then said: "The so-called 'gu' mostly involves sealing hundreds of insects in a vessel so that they can fight and eat each other. After a few years, the ones who are still alive are the 'gu'. Locking Dragon Gu The secret method of making it has long been lost, but it is called 'gu', and the method should be similar. If the poison produced by two 'gu's is stronger, the stronger one will suppress the weaker one, and it is impossible to coexist."

Zhu Manzhi seemed to understand: "What about now?"

"The Dragon-locking Gu on my body and the Dragon-locking Gu on this corpse were produced by the same Gu."

After Xu Buling finished speaking calmly, he put the leg bones into the coffin, closed the coffin lid with earth, and said no more words.

When Zhu Manzhi saw Xu Buling's stern and fierce look, he didn't dare to speak...

-----

In the middle of the night, a torch flickered on the snowy field.

Xu Bu Ling rode back on his horse, his expression not very good, and he looked at Chang'an City where the sea of ​​lights was like a tide from time to time.

Zhu Manzhi sat obediently behind her, and the horse walked very slowly. She no longer shamelessly hugged Xu Buling's waist, but just grabbed Xu Buling's skirt with her hands. After thinking for a long time, she smiled:

"Mr. Xu, don't worry. There will be a way to reach the mountain. At least now we have determined who poisoned you. If you know who poisoned you, you will know who to go to for the antidote. Mr. Xu is so skilled in martial arts and so smart. , there must be a way..."

Xu Buling came back to his senses, suppressed his complicated emotions for the time being, and smiled lightly:

"When this matter is finished, I will take you back to Xiliang and arrange a position for you as the chief retainer of the palace. We can spend as much time as we want."

Zhu Manzhi was stunned for a moment, blinked his big eyes, and his face turned red unconsciously. His boots dangled on the side of the horse, and he twirled his fingers and thought for a while:

"Mr. Xu, I have often heard that Shu Lang tells stories about heroes. Anyone who says 'wait until this matter is finished' seems to have a bad ending..."

"..."

Xu Buring was speechless for a moment. The atmosphere he had managed to create was gone. He spread his hands and said helplessly:

"Whether she is unhappy or not, she will definitely be happy if I ask Ning Qingye to go to Xiliang as a guest."

Zhu Manzhi suddenly became anxious, raised his little face and said nervously:

"I'm happy to. Anyway, my parents have run away from home. I can go wherever I want... However, I still want to find my parents..."

"Okay, I'll wander around the world with you when the time comes."

"whee……"

Zhu Manzhi leaned forward a little, curious: "My mother likes flowers, and so do I. Is Prince Su's Mansion beautiful?"

Xu Buring nodded: "Prince Su's Mansion is very big. When I was a child, I lived alone outside the city. There was a big sea of ​​flowers outside. Every spring, the sea of ​​flowers stretched as far as the eye could see. There was a small room in the middle, and there was a very big bed inside. The bed can sleep ten people without being crowded..."

Zhu Manzhi blinked his big eyes and looked a little puzzled: "Why do you want such a big bed? How troublesome is it to get up?"

Xu Bu Ling laughed twice and said seriously:

"I was naughty when I was a child. I would jump around when I was sleeping, and accidentally rolled under the bed. The palace had no choice, so they made a very big bed with swings, wooden horses, etc. It was really fun. ”

"Wow~ I really want to see it... such a big bed, it must be very comfortable to roll around on..."

"Just rolling around?"

"...What if?"

"..."

The cold wind was blowing, and in the vast sky and earth outside Qujiang Pond, two people and one horse were walking away...
