369 The Chosen Ones(1/2)
Seeing that his daughter was angry, Lei Zhizun reached out to grab Zhan Yan back, but the poisonous monster reached out to stop him: "Old man Lei, let's stop today's business for the time being. There are other guests in the painting garden to entertain."
"Humph, what kind of guest wants us to make concessions? No, today, we have to give a satisfactory answer, otherwise, I won't give up!"
"Oh, really? I wonder how Dr. Lei is willing to give up?"
A cold voice came, interrupting Lei Zhizun's words.
Lei Zhizun and Lei Tianjiao turned around to look at the person at the same time. After seeing clearly, they both trembled at the same time, "Nangong Jin!"
"Haha, you two have such good memories. It's been a few years and you still remember me as a junior. It's really an honor for me!"
Lei Tianjiao's face suddenly turned pale, and when she looked at Lei Zhizun, her body couldn't help but tremble, "Daddy!"
Lei Zhizun hugged his daughter and comforted him: "Don't worry, daddy is here, no one dares to hurt you!"
Yu Tianrong was greatly surprised. Why did the Lei family's father and daughter seem to be so jealous of Nangong Jin? He originally wanted to give Nangong Jin a cold face, but now he decided to watch the show first.
When Feng Hua saw Nangong Jin, her face turned ugly, but she didn't show anything.
Lei Zhizun looked at Nangong Jin, "What are you doing here?"
"Me? Doctor Lei, didn't your daughter tell you that Yu Tianrong is my wife?"
Lei Tianjiao became angry when he heard this, "They all said that it was you, Nangong Jin, who personally ordered her to be kicked out of the house because he was shameless and vicious! You two have nothing to do with each other now!"
"Who told you?" Nangong Jin looked at her coldly, with a murderous look in his eyes.
Lei Tianjiao couldn't help but hide behind Lei Zhizun, "Everyone in Liguo's capital knows about this."
Nangong Jin clenched his fists and glanced at Lei Tianjiao with a cold gaze, followed by another look of helplessness. After he understood the truth, he had someone secretly clarify these messages, but there were still many evil words directed at Yu Tianrong.
Lei Zhizun looked at Nangong Jin's expression and couldn't help but sneer, "Why, the woman whom the Protector General himself abandoned is now reluctant to part with her?"
"Hmph, it's not your turn to point out my affairs. Are you going to leave today or not?"
Lei Zhizun glared at Nangong Jin angrily. There were only a few people in the world who dared to treat him like this, but this boy was one of them who dared! He was the one who started not to take him seriously a few years ago! But,
He still has to avoid him.
Lei Tianjiao didn't know what past events she was thinking about. Now her face was not only pale, but also a little green. She seemed to be suffering in her heart, "Dad, let's go quickly!"
Lei Zhizun looked at his daughter's face and sighed in his heart, "Okay, let's just say goodbye today!"
After walking a few steps, he turned around and said to Yu Tianrong: "Yu Tianrong, since you are Nangong Jin's woman, you should let Zhan Yan go. He will not have a good life if he follows you! With me
If our daughter is together, we can at least be an ordinary couple and live in harmony for the rest of our lives! If you continue to keep him, you will be harming him!"
Yu Tianrong watched them leave coldly. Who said she was Nangong Jin's woman? Huh, boring! I may not be afraid of the people you are afraid of!
Lei Zhizun and his daughter left, but a bigger trouble came. Yu Tianrong looked at Nangong Jin coldly, "I wonder if the general protecting the country is here, can you give me any advice?"
Nangong Jin looked at her with a headache, "It's nothing serious, I just came to see you for a trip to Tianzhu."
Tianzhu? Yu Tianrong looked at him inexplicably. Did she hear it correctly? He came to her for no reason?
Nangong Jin looked at her helplessly, took a few steps forward and whispered: "It seems that you have really forgotten that every five years we have to go to that place in Tianzhu to worship. This is a major event in Liguo, and we are selected
People, whether we are husband or wife, this is our responsibility."
What? The chosen person? Why does this sound like fortune telling? Yu Tianrong stared, "How do I know whether what you said is true or false? Even if it is true, I am not happy to go, you love yourself
Go!"
Nangong Jin looked at her in astonishment, "You have forgotten so completely that you have even forgotten the secrets of leaving the country? This is an imperial edict, you can see for yourself!"
Yu Tianrong ended up with a roll of yellow cloth. Sorry, in her opinion, the imperial edict is just a roll of yellow cloth.
After opening it and reading it carefully, Yu Tianrong was a little confused and looked at it carefully again, feeling a little stupid. Feng Hua reached out and took the imperial edict. After reading it, her brows furrowed and she looked at Nangong Jin with a more searching look.
.Yu Tianrong forgot about this matter. Did he know that no one other than Li Guo's important ministers could know about this matter? Moreover, the selected person has always been kept secret. Therefore, most people do not know about this matter at all. Even if
People who know this may not necessarily know which one is chosen.
It was like he had always known about this, but he didn't know who the chosen people were. He didn't expect it to be the two of them.
"Can you refuse?" Yu Tianrong was very unhappy,
Nangong Jin shrugged, "You should tell the emperor this, or ask the people around you if you can refuse."
Yu Tianrong looked at Feng Hua, "Do you know this?"
Feng Hua nodded, "There is no escaping this matter. Madam has to make a trip this time!"
"Damn, I just got home, and you have to run away again before I'm safe. It's so abominable!" Yu Tianrong looked at Xi Bingxuan dissatisfied, "I said, General Protector of the Country, are you asking the emperor for an order?
Is it better to choose another person as soon as possible?"
Nangong Jin was speechless. If the selection was so simple, then did she still need to say it? He would have changed the person a long time ago! "We will set off in half a month, so prepare to leave!"
"Hey, wait, just the two of us? Can we bring someone to help?"
Nangong Jin glanced back at her, "Okay, but you'd better bring someone more powerful, otherwise, if you go, you will just be a burden, and you may even get killed!"
"Why?"
"You'll know when the time comes." After Nangong Jin said that, he left without looking back. He left cleanly. There was no entanglement this time!
Yu Tianrong looked at his back curiously, "Feng Hua, do you think he is a little abnormal?"
"Madam, this is a big deal. Even if he wants to cause trouble for you, he won't do it at this time."
Big thing? Not necessarily!
Looking at her look, Feng Hua knew that she didn't take it to heart, and sighed, "Madam, I think I need to tell you something about the origin of this matter. There is a place in Tianzhu that is extremely prosperous, but it is not prosperous for human beings.
Instead, birds and beasts flourished.
In the deepest part of the mountain forest, there is a small castle. Inside the castle stands the jade pagodas of the three great kingdoms. The founding emperors of all dynasties attached great importance to them. No matter which family became the emperor, they might kill the founding heroes or the descendants of the previous emperors.
, but will never touch anyone who has anything to do with it, especially those who are chosen to sweep the sacrifices. Because regarding the fate of a country, no matter who is the king of this country, if no one goes to sweep the sacrifices, the country will surely
We will encounter a steady stream of catastrophes, and the people of the world will be in dire straits and suffer unspeakably!"
"So magical? Real or fake?"
"Really, according to the rumors of the older generation, for some reason the country of Meng did not elect a person to sweep the sacrifices fifty years ago. Then for five consecutive years, the country suffered from constant famines. The leader of the country of Meng was miserable and finally asked us to leave the country.
They borrowed food and grass to barely support the situation. Then, when a new round of sweeping sacrifices came, they finally selected suitable candidates and sincerely swept the sacrifices, which restored prosperity and reduced natural and man-made disasters.
Since then, no country has dared to neglect this matter, and an unwritten rule has been formed between the three major countries. No matter what kind of turmoil it is, it will never affect the person who sweeps the sacrifice, otherwise it will cause public outrage. And because of the sweeping of the sacrifice,
The matter is so important that only the emperor and the two major families in charge of selecting candidates know about it. These two major families must be indifferent to fame and wealth, have no desires, and care about the common people in the world. In this way, they will have no impact on the emperor or the country. What they do
It's just for the safety of a country, and they don't need to care who the emperor is."
Yu Tianrong sighed when he heard this, this thing is really miraculous! Is there really a divine punishment in this world? "Then, how do you choose the person who will sweep the sacrifice?"
Feng Hua glanced at her, "It is said that people with supernatural talents must be chosen! Nangong Jin was chosen probably because he owned the Scorpio Sword! As for you, I don't know. I really can't see that you have it.
What kind of gifted spirit!"
Ugh! This girl has to step on her when she tells a story! Yu Tianrong curled his lips, "I'm not curious about it!"
"One more thing I want to tell you is that as a precaution, each country will prepare as many suitable candidates as possible in case something unexpected happens, and then send people to sweep the ceremony according to the order of selection."
"Oh, that's it, it's really mysterious!" Yu Tianrong felt that he was listening to a myth, and after listening to it, he wanted to sleep!
"Madam, did you take what I just said as a deaf ear?" Feng Hua's cool voice came, like a basin of cold water waking her up.
Yu Tianrong chuckled, "Where, where, I remember it all, but I haven't digested it for a while. Haha, don't be too impatient, I will try my best to accept this mysterious thing!"
"Madam, you can play with other things, but you can't do this. Even though I despise the lives of many people, I still dare not despise the lives of the people in the world!"
Yu Tianrong looked at Feng Hua in surprise, why did this guy suddenly become a sense of justice? It's strange! It turns out that killers can also be patriotic! "Don't worry, whether it's true or not, since you all believe that I won't neglect you,
I just try my best to do it well.”
"That's good. This time, I'll accompany my wife!"
"Okay." Yu Tianrong suddenly sighed again, "Oh, I was still thinking about guarding against the real master of the Psychedelic Palace. I didn't expect to have to leave home again. I'm really worried!"
"There is still half a month to go, Madam, don't worry too much."
Yu Tianrong glanced at him and couldn't help but sigh. To put it lightly, how could the real owner of the Psychedelic Palace be that simple!
"Although the Psychedelic Palace has some background, Madam doesn't need to worry too much. I don't think they are very wary of Madam."
"That might be true originally, but Pei Ruochen and I destroyed a dozen masters in one fell swoop. This feud has been settled!"
What!!! Feng Hua looked at Yu Tianrong in disbelief, "What did you just say? You killed more than a dozen masters of the Psychedelic Palace? What level?"
"Well, it's the protector level! Later, even the elder level was offended!"
Feng Hua almost bumped her head when she heard this, "Madam, can you tell me why you went to the Psychedelic Palace to cause trouble?"
"Oh, that's because a woman offended me and got involved in the Psychedelic Palace. I planned to go and have a look, and then I felt that they were not simple, so I set fire to it and started fighting..."
The more Feng Hua listened, the darker his face became. How could he cause such a big trouble? Oh my god, what on earth was this woman thinking? "No wonder that crazy woman went crazy against you that day! I was still curious at the time.
, I didn’t expect that it was you and Pei Ruochen who caused trouble!"
"That's wrong, it's because their character is too bad. I didn't think anything of it at first. It's because they have dirty thoughts and want to tease me. Naturally, I taught them a lesson rudely. Then, they also wanted to control our bodies and become
It's a murder tool. Pei Ruochen and I were naturally angry after hearing this, and of course we had to work hard to kill the enemy!"
