Chapter 468 Curse

"It's not adults we fear."

The captain took a deep look at Lu Mingfei.

"But you, outsiders."

Lu Mingfei nodded without any influence, and the captain snorted coldly.

"Brother Lu."

Fengjian Liuli had a smile on her face, as warm as the spring breeze.

The captain nodded respectfully.

"What was this bastard talking to you just now?"

Lu Mingfei gave him a speechless look.

How do I, a good brother, do it without changing my expression and swearing at others, and those who don’t understand think you are saying nice things.

"Sir, you are so approachable."

Several members of the escort team were talking in low voices.

Someone glanced at Lu Mingfei from time to time.

"Oh, these outsiders have no way to compare with adults."

"That's right."

Lu Mingfei:......

"Brother Lu, look at the way these idiots look at me, as if I am really a big shot."

Kazama Ruri narrowed her eyes when she smiled, like a well-behaved boy next door.

"Idiots are idiots, they look really stupid."

Lu Mingfei also discovered that this guy Fengjian Liuli had such a bad character.

Speaking of which, this guy must have done it on purpose. He kept saying it even though he knew that the Sword Warriors couldn't understand.

Lu Mingfei briefly talked about the outsiders' affairs with Shutoku Mai and the others.

"The Sword Attendant clan is so repulsive to outsiders..."

Kazama Liuli said.

"Has anything happened in the past few decades?"

"Why decades?"

Mai Shutoku quickly grasped the key point.

"Lord Dragon King, do you know anything else?"

"Do I need to say such a simple thing?"

Kazama Ruri cast a surprised look at Shutoku Mai, as if looking at a rare animal.

"The Sword Warriors started human sacrifice within a few decades, as well as their attitude towards outsiders. If you think about it a little bit, you will know."

Here, Kazama Ruri and Shutoku Mai bickered every day, and over there, Lu Mingfei approached the captain for questioning.

"Why exclude outsiders!"

As if hearing a fantasy, the captain sneered.

Just as he was about to speak, he remembered something again and took a deep look at Lu Mingfei.

"Don't worry, outsider."

"The elder is right in front."

"He's waiting for you."

Elder...

The person who holds the greatest power of the Sword Warrior clan.

It turned out that the goal of this trip was to see him.

…………

"grown ups!"

Captain congratulates.

"People are here."

An old voice sounded slowly.

"Let them in."

"yes."

The stone house was very dark, with only an oil lamp lit, burning faintly.

Lu Mingfei glanced around the room.

Surprisingly, the stone house was very poorly furnished. There was only a bed in the corner, and the rest of the room was empty.

It's so shabby that it's hard for people to believe that this is actually the residence of the elders who hold all the power of the Sword Attendant clan.

There was a black shadow lingering on the bed, which had not moved for a long time. Listening carefully, you could hear faint breathing, and then you realized that the black shadow was also a living thing.

If I am not mistaken, this is the elder of the Sword Attendant clan.

The eyes of Lu Mingfei and the other three people all focused on him.

"I heard that you brought our sacrifices back."

The old voice sounded faintly, like an oil lamp in the house, which could be extinguished by a gust of wind.

The expressions of Lu Mingfei and the other three people changed.

What the elder said was actually the same language as the outside world.

Ruri Kazama and Mai Shutoku can also understand.

Lu Mingfei was silent. He felt the sword attendant behind him trembling. Was he afraid?

The elder suddenly coughed violently.

The voice was hoarse and a little scary.

An idea came to Lu Mingfei's mind.

This man won't live long.

The coughing stopped and the violent wheezing passed.

The elder's voice sounded faintly.

"Alian, Alian."

"Where are you……"

"Alian, Alian."

Lu Mingfei lowered his head in surprise. Following the elder's call, Jian Shilian walked out from behind Lu Mingfei.

Fascinated?

No, I didn't hear anything unusual in this voice.

and……

Lu Mingfei looked into Jian Shilian's eyes, which were as clear as before and showed no sign of being confused.

So, this is...

Jian Shilian took two steps toward the elder, stopped, stood there for a long time, and called out in an ancient language.

"grandmother."

Fengjian Liuli and the other two could not understand the ancient language, so they could only turn their attention to Lu Mingfei.

They all frowned when they saw the surprise on Lu Mingfei's face.

"Good boy."

The elder switched to ancient language.

"Alian, Alian."

"Come to grandma..."

Jian Shilian pursed her lips, stirred her feet uneasily, and finally walked forward step by step.

"careful."

Lu Mingfei held her shoulders.

A low sigh sounded in the stone house.

"Kid, don't worry."

"Alian is my granddaughter."

"I won't hurt her."

Jian Shilian raised her head and looked at Lu Mingfei with sincere eyes.

"Go ahead."

Lu Mingfei rubbed Jian Shilian's head.

"Alian, Alian."

The black shadow on the bed moved, stretched out a pair of hands like dead branches, and hugged Jian Shilian tightly.

The elder began to cry. Her sadness was so profound that it made people feel the same.

Jian Shilian also wiped away tears.

Lu Mingfei whispered the relationship between the elder and Jian Shilian to Jiu De and Mai.

They are all aware of the problem here.

Since she is the elder's granddaughter, why should she be used as a sacrifice?

"A few."

The grandfather and grandson cried for a while. The elder whispered a few words to Jian Shilian, and Jian Shilian obediently stood aside.

The elder said to Lu Mingfei and the others.

"I heard that the emperor's blood is also here."

"Who is it?"

They all understood the elder's words without Lu Mingfei's translation.

only……

Royal blood?

Lu Mingfei and others looked at each other.

First, Shutoku Mai and Kazama Liuli looked at Lu Mingfei.

Royal blood, etc., sounds like a very high bloodline. When talking about high bloodline, sure enough, they immediately thought of Lu Mingfei. This was an S-class from Kassel, and he should be the one with the highest bloodline among the three. .

But... royal blood?

Emperor...

Fengjian Liuli was stunned and looked thoughtful.

In fact, there is no need to think too much about the royal blood. It can be seen from the meaning of the elder's words and the attitude of the captain and others.

The royal blood the elder refers to is...

Lu Mingfei and Jiude Mai both looked at Fengjian Liuli.

"Old man."

Kazama Liuli said.

"Are you...looking for me?"

The elder coughed violently.

"Come on, Alian, Alian."

"Give this to your lord."

Sword Shilian dragged a magatama and stood in front of Fengjian Liuli.

There is a pattern inside the magatama.

"This is……"

Lu Mingfei asked.

"Gentian."

Mai Shutoku took a deep look at Kazama Ruri.

"Three of the eight Sheqi families are, Jiahui from the Yuan family."

Kazama Ruri didn't seem to hear.

His eyes were firmly attracted to this magatama.

Kazama Liuli smiled.

"I see."

He raised his saber, with the same gentian pattern on the handle.

"You can judge from this."

"Mr. Captain, you have really good eyesight." The gentian on Kazama's glass saber is more scrawled and more abstract, with just a few strokes. It would be difficult for ordinary people to connect it with the Yuan family's family.

What's more, there is Kazama Ruri's identity as the Dragon King of the Fierce Ghosts. Under the preconceived impression, who would believe that the leader of the Fierce Ghosts would actually be the Hidden Emperor of the Eight Sheqi Clan.

"As for the Yuan family, I remember that there is only one contemporary successor, the young head of the eight Sheqi families."

Jiude Mai whispered to Lu Mingfei.

"I don't know what's going on with this Lord Dragon King."

Kazama Ruri smiled with interest.

He played with the magatama.

"Old man, with just a knife, you think I am the grown-up you call me."

"Wouldn't it be too arbitrary?"

The elder coughed violently, and the black shadow on the bed trembled crazily, which was shocking to see.

"Blood...drops of blood..."

"Sir, if you put a drop of blood on it, you will see the difference."

Feng Jian Liuli nodded, and without hesitation, he drew out his sword and wiped it on his palm. Blood like red agate took a long time to squeeze out.

Fengjian Liuli's blood was different. It was not as heavy as liquid, but like mercury, dripping and falling on the magatama.

Magatama, which looked as smooth as a mirror without any holes, actually absorbed all the blood like a sponge after coming into contact with Kazama Ruri's blood.

No, what is really being absorbed is not the magatama, but the gentian pattern inside the magatama.

After a moment, the magatama returned to its original state, crystal clear. The only thing that had changed was the red gentian inside it.

Kazama Liuli looked at all this with interest.

"Alian, help me apply the medicine."

The elder seemed to have known the result in advance and was not surprised that the gentian turned red.

Jian Shilian came over with medicine for the wound.

Fengjian Liuli smiled.

"Need not."

He showed his white jade-like palms.

"Look, it's okay."

Jian Shilian opened her eyes wide in surprise.

Sure enough, there was no trace of any scar on Fengjian Liuli's palm. Jian Shilian looked at it carefully in disbelief, and then discovered a trace, and the skin color was different from the side.

"As expected of...the blood of the emperor..."

After the elder sighed with difficulty, he began to cough violently again.

Jian Shilian hurriedly ran to the bed and patted the elder's back.

The elder's coughing became more and more violent, which made people sweat. They were worried that she would die just from coughing like this.

"Since...now that Lord Royal Blood is here."

"I think our clan's fate must have come to an end here."

"Alian! Alian!"

The elder gathered his strength.

"Hel grandma up!"

Jian Shilian helped the elder get out of bed.

She finally walked from the darkness into the light illuminated by the oil lamp.

Lu Mingfei and others were stunned.

Scales as hard as steel, turbid golden eyes, and a deformed head.

No matter how you look at it, the elder in front of you is a deadpool.

"Don't be afraid, kids."

The elder gasped.

"I am not a monster."

She covered her mouth and nose with her skinny claws.

Even with the knowledge of Lu Mingfei and the others, they had never seen such a situation.

They had never seen such a thin Deadpool, like a stick figure, as if the wind could blow her down if the wind was just a little stronger.

They have never seen Deadpool who can still maintain human logical thinking, and has not been completely devoured by the desire to kill.

"I'm just...just..."

"It's just a curse."

The elder knelt in front of Fengjian Liuli.

He knocked his forehead heavily on the ground.

"grown ups!"

…………

Lu Mingfei tore into the barbecue.

He eats very efficiently, eating a large piece of barbecue in three or two times. Compared with him, Kazama Ruri is too elegant, like a handsome nobleman.

"As expected of Brother Lu, you are so generous."

Kazama Ruri sighed.

Mai Shutoku almost couldn't help but shoot out the table knife in her hand as a hidden weapon.

The Dragon King of the Fierce Ghosts and the Hidden Emperor of the Eight Sheqi Clan, why can’t you have some face?

Kazama Ruri smiled obediently at Shutoku Mai.

Kazama Ruri seemed to have no temper. No matter how hard Mai Shutoku made things, he never got angry or angry.

"Speaking of which..."

"Brother Lu, what do you think of what that elder said?"

Fengjian Liuli asked Lu Mingfei.

The Sword Attendant clan has been guarding Tian Congyun Sword for generations for more than a thousand years, and the elder actually asked Fengjian Liuli to take away the divine body that they had guarded for generations as soon as he saw them.

Too strange.

"The elders also said that they guard Tiancongyun Sword in order to wait for the Emperor Yin to come and take it away."

Lu Mingfei opened his mouth.

"It's just that this so-called curse..."

Decades ago, an outsider came to the Sword Warrior clan

It seemed that he had done something to offend the divine body.

Since then, the curse from the divine body has befallen the Sword Attendant clan.

This curse has nothing to do with age, gender, or physical fitness.

No matter who it is, as long as it is a member of the Sword Attendant clan, it is possible to wake up after a certain sleep and be surprised to find that there is an extra scale on the body surface, or that the nails turn into sharp claws.

This change is different from Deadpoolization.

The transformation into Deadpool takes a few pieces, a few hours, or even minutes, and a hybrid may completely degenerate into Deadpool.

But not the curse.

Curse is a long process.

The people of the Sword Attendant clan could only watch the horrific changes unfold on themselves bit by bit.

There is no other way but to watch.

Who can bear to wake up every day with more abnormalities in his body?

This is intense torture for the soul.

The difference between the curse and Deadpool transformation is that the change only occurs in the body. The hearts of the sword warriors are still human hearts and are not dominated by the desire to kill.

The curse didn't stop until his whole body was transformed into Deadpool. Then his muscles atrophied, and he watched himself become weaker day by day, and finally, he rotted.

This is the curse that has befallen the Sword Attendant clan.

In the beginning, members of the Sword Warrior clan were cursed every day.

And the number is rising accordingly as time goes by.

If this continues, one day the entire sword servant clan will become extinct.

I don’t know who came up with the idea of ​​human sacrifice.

The members of the Sword Attendant clan were very opposed to it. It was too evil to use human sacrifices or something like that.

This is blasphemy against the divine body.

However, after the first secret living sacrifice was successful, the curse suddenly stopped. No new cursed people appeared, and the original cursed people also interrupted the deformation process.

The tribesmen who denounced the living sacrifice remained silent.

The custom of living sacrifices gradually became established.

Once they discover that the curse of Tiancong Yunjian has come again, they will choose a boy and girl to use their lives to calm the anger of Tiancong Yunjian.

The sacrifice this time was none other than Sword Shilian.

"If you take away the Tiancongyun Sword..."

"This time it's all up to you, Lord of Heroic Royal Blood."

Shutoku Mai looked at Kazama Ruri teasingly.

Kazama Liuli narrowed her eyes and smiled.

"I can't be a hero or anything like that."

He toasted to Lu Mingfei.

"I see, this job has to fall on Brother Lu in the end."
