Chapter 98: The Curse Breaking Method
"I don't know what Miss Shiyao experienced under the cliff of Yishan," Qi Ling continued to narrate in a plain tone, "I only know that one day later, she absorbed a large amount of Yin-Death Qi in the extreme pain, and since then she turned into the snow girl of Yishan, controlling the coldest and cold frost power.
"After that, she returned to Qingzhou and found that her relatives and those who once gave her kindness had been abused and died miserably.
"I wonder if you have any understanding of myths and legends - those who hurt people's body in the world, those who traitors and kill people, those who bully others with power, those who forget their righteousness when they see profit, those who repay kindness with hatred, those who are cold-blooded and cruel, etc., will enter the "ice hell" of the Second Hall of Yama after death and suffer punishment from cold and frost.
"So, with anger and hatred, the lady turned the entire land mansion into an "ice hell" with the help of the "Jinghong Pen" and the power of frost. She wanted to make the evil man who was killed and killed at a price.
“This is what is called ‘there is no way to hell and blame’.
"Three days later, the lady's maid Shuyan also turned into a drought after death for some unknown reason, causing three years of drought to the entire Qingzhou Prefecture.
"However, the evil leader Tang Hui and some of his subordinates escaped the punishment of the Ice Hell with the power of the "Inspector Token".
"Although they could not leave the Lu Mansion, they built a shelter in the northwest corner building.
"Because of the existence of the 'Inspector Token', neither the lady nor my power could enter the shelter.
"At the same time, as time goes by, the human emotions that belong to Miss Shiyao are gradually disappearing. She becomes more and more like a god who is in charge of ice and snow, and is not as good as the world's fireworks.
“She was afraid that she would forget her hatred and eventually let the evildoers escape the punishment they deserved.
"So, she left me and her last trace of humanity in this abandoned house, waiting for the arrival of a destined person who can help her realize her wish."
While listening to the narration of the spirit of the weapon, Gu Xu silently analyzed whether these words were true or false.
"I have a question," he pondered for a moment, and said, "Why did your lady keep you here instead of taking you to Yishan?"
The spirit of the artifact sighed and said with a sad expression: "A dead person can no longer be the owner of the famous artifact; and without the master's famous artifact, he cannot exert his true power. The lady does not want me to be buried forever in order to help her. She hopes that I will have another moment of shining light in the future."
Hearing this, Gu Xu took out a copper coin from his pocket, turned it around a few times in his palm, and silently chanted the name of "God", and then glanced quietly.
Face up.
This shows that the spirit of the artifact did not lie.
Gu Xu then asked: "If I remember correctly, Miss Lu has the strength of the sixth realm after transforming into the Snow Girl; and you are also one of the famous "twelve famous weapons". What is the ability of the "Imperial Envoy Token" to keep you out of the shelter?"
The weapon spirit replied: "Because the 'instruction token' was personally carved by the emperor with the 'Tai'a Sword'. The Tai'a Sword is the leader of weapons in the world, and has a great restraining effect on the souls of the dead and the magic weapons in the world - including other famous weapons without a master."
"I am just a weak second-level cultivator. I'm afraid I can't help you in such a thing, right?" Gu Xu asked tentatively.
"What you need to do is simple," replied the Spirit of the Artifact. "You just need to be the new owner of Jinghong Bi and cross the barrier of the refuge. The rest of the matter, the lady and I will handle it ourselves."
"Why choose me?" Gu Xu continued, "I think, before me, there must be many monks who can do this."
"It is not a random thing to choose a master of a famous weapon," Qi Ling sneered, "Do you think these three tests in Lu's house are really casually set?"
She paused for a moment and continued, "For example, the test of the 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Society' has used the lady's 'wisdom eyes' supernatural powers - it can not only examine the talents of monks, but also their minds.
"A person with different opinions cannot write a poem smoothly on the 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Club'.
"Just like Tang Hui, although he got the orchid sign for the 'Gentleman in Flowers', because he was essentially a despicable villain - even if he had passed the Jinshi exam and had a great talent, he could not successfully write an orchid poem."
No wonder.
Gu Xu thought silently in his heart.
He had long suspected that the name signatures and poems on the "Hundred Flowers Poetry Society" are closely related to everyone's personality and destiny.
The words of the weapon spirit undoubtedly confirm this speculation.
Then, Gu Xu asked another question that he had always been very curious about: "So what is the third test? Why did I pass it directly without doing anything?"
"Because the lady told me that you are the only one among all monks who entered this abandoned house not for their own fame and fortune," Qi Ling replied lightly, "Miss appreciates pure and clean people, so do I.
"But in this world, too many people are already trapped in the mud of fame and fortune and cannot extricate themselves."
"Ms. Lu may have read the wrong person," Gu Xu laughed at himself, "I always think I am a vulgar person and never feel that I am so noble. When I came to this house, I was actually just trying to find Miss Lu to ask for the solution to the "Frost Erosion" curse."
"The method of cracking the curse of the 'Frost Erosion'? What do you want that thing to do?" The spirit of the weapon obviously did not expect Gu Xu to make such a request.
Not because this requirement is very high.
But because, compared to becoming the new owner of "Jinghong Bi", this requirement seems too trivial.
Gu Xu stood up from his seat, cleared his throat, and said, "My boss went to Yishan to pick a snow ginseng in order to cure me. During this process, he was cursed with the "Frost Erosion" and his health became worse and worse.
"But no matter what, he did this for me after all. If his behavior angered Miss Lu, I am deeply sorry for him.
"I believe that Miss Lu is a simple and kind woman with a good character. I beg Miss Lu to be proud of her, forgive an elder who made mistakes because of pity for his younger generation, give him the "Frost Merge" spell, and relieve his pain."
After he finished speaking, he clasped his fists with his hands and bowed to the spirit of the "Jinghong Pen" weapon and the windless green gauze cabinet.
The spirit of the weapon stood silently, as if he was unable to make up his mind.
At this moment, a lilac flower paper appeared out of thin air and then gently fell at Gu Xu's feet.
Gu Xu picked up the flower paper and read it carefully.
I saw that the paper was written in small regular script with beautiful hairpins:
"Sorry, young master. He has a bad temper and has always hated uninvited guests who have trespassed on Yishan. He hurts his elders. Please forgive me.
"The cracking method of the 'Frost Erosion' spell has been written on the back of this piece of paper. Please be sure to accept it.
"Lu Shiyao, please go."
