Chapter 370 I'm Covering You
The old patriarch knew that he didn't have a good life for a few years. For the past ten years, he had relied on extremely rare natural materials and earthly treasures to save his life. However, his body was getting worse day by day. .
He was reluctant to close his eyes, he didn't see the appearance of the noble son mentioned by the saint, and he didn't see the blood curse of the Si family being lifted.
Now, the one predicted by the saint appeared, and her prediction was right.
Miss Saint, I have never made a mistake.
The old patriarch wiped the corners of his eyes, his face flushed with excitement.
Si Lengyue persuaded: "Old patriarch, you are not in good health, don't get excited. Xixi, maybe you can give him a pulse and prescribe a prescription?"
She looked at Qin Liuxi with pleading eyes.
The old patriarch waved his hand: "No need, this old slave has a few years to live. If the old slave sees that the blood curse is broken, he will be able to go underground to serve the saint."
Qin Liuxi said: "If this is the case, then you should help your veins. This blood curse does not mean that it can be solved immediately."
Upon hearing this, the old patriarch said: "Then I will trouble the nobleman."
Qin Liuxi stepped forward, put his fingers on his wrist, and after a while, said: "Old patriarch, you are in good health. Do you think your muscles and bones have been tempered when you were young?"
The old patriarch nodded, showing nostalgia on his face, and said: "When I was a child, the holy lady gave me a medicinal bath to strengthen my muscles and bones, and she gave me a sacrament empowerment, and I also took her own health pills. These years, I also After eating a lot of treasures from heaven and earth, there are no serious illnesses and few minor illnesses, but it is just a bit of wind and cold, all thanks to the blessing of the Holy Maiden."
Otherwise, how could he live to this fate?
Qin Liuxi looked at Si Lengyue, and said: "The old patriarch has no health problems, but he is old. This person is old, even if he lives a long life, but the internal organs of the body will decline with the years. There is no cure for old diseases. "
Si Lengyue's face darkened when she heard the words, and she looked at the old patriarch with sad eyes.
The old patriarch smiled calmly: "It doesn't matter. There is no one who is not old. I have lived long enough. If I can see that the blood curse is broken, I will die without regret. Little master don't need to feel sorry for me."
Si Lengyue nodded.
Qin Liuxi also said: "The old patriarch is right. The most rare thing for people is to live a long and healthy life, not to be deaf and not to be blind, and to die without a problem in the future is a great fortune."
The old patriarch was even more happy when he heard this.
Si Lengyue didn't mention this anymore, and only talked about the opening of the clan site and the sacrifice. The old patriarch said that everything was ready and he could go to the clan site at any time.
Qin Liuxi said: "Then go and have a look."
The family land of the Si family is in Yinlou Peak. In the past hundred years, in order not to disturb the souls of the ancestors, the Si family has already bought all of Yinlou Peak and the two nearby hills. Even the five villages belong to the Si family. territory.
Qin Liuxi said: "You are not afraid that the imperial court and interested people will swallow up the Si family."
The financial resources displayed by the Si family, and even a jade mine, can be said to be very rich, and the Si family has only one orphan girl for generations, which is naturally coveted.
"There are still three nails on the rotten ship. Although we no longer practice witchcraft, it does not mean that we have no ability to protect ourselves." Si Lengyue said calmly: "We no longer practice witchcraft orthodoxly, but with The witches who are closely related to our Si family are also distributed everywhere. This is one point. Another point is that we also have business cooperation with the imperial court and some old-school families. My mother, when she was alive, presented a golden Mine, in exchange for a piece of Dan Shu Tie Qi."
Qin Liuxi staggered and turned to look at her: "Gold mine?"
"This is too arrogant, your mother is very courageous." Qin Liuxi sighed.
Gold mines, anyone who is willing to offer it will give it away, but Si Lengyue's mother is willing.
Qin Liuxi asked in a low voice: "The gold mines and jade miners have them all, what else do they not have? Your family is as rich as an enemy."
Si Lengyue smiled wryly: "It's not a good thing to be rich and rival a country. As you said, if there are too many things to pinch, it will be easy to attract people's covetous attention. From the time of the first emperor, he has wanted to marry the Si family."
Qin Liuxi's eyes flashed coldly, and he sneered: "Marriage?"
"Yes." Si Lengyue sneered: "It's just because of our short life. If not, my mother would not have donated a gold mine, just because the one on the throne wants to accept my mother as a concubine."
Understood, that is, I want to accept the concubine as a fake, and the purpose is still the gold mine.
"and you?"
"Me? It depends on how shameless they are." Si Lengyue looked cold and paused.
"The desires of the royal family are like a bottomless pit. Once there is a beginning, there will be a second and third time. Now that you are sixteen, if you have a suitable son-in-law, you have to make an appointment early." Qin Liuxi said.
Si Lengyue didn't say a word, she knew it should be like this before, but now, she didn't want to, she didn't want to live according to her ancestors.
Qin Liuxi suddenly felt the heavy burden on her shoulders, like a boulder, unable to move, and there were countless wolves around.
She stretched out her hand suddenly, shook Si Lengyue's hand, and said, "Don't be afraid, it's hard for others to tell. If you were alone, I would definitely be able to protect you. From now on, I'll cover you!"
Si Lengyue smiled at her, starlight in her eyes, she couldn't help but shook her hand, and said, "If I'm in a hurry, I can only retreat to the clan's place. Look, we're here."
Qin Liuxi looked up, and saw a huge cave in front of him. The door was made of black iron. There were totems of the witch clan on the door, as well as some complicated incantations, which were simple and solemn.
Si Lengyue first knelt down in front of the mountain gate, murmured something, then got up, pressed the totem hard, revealing a keyhole inside, and took a key with the old patriarch, combined them into one, and inserted them into the keyhole .
Click, click, there is a mechanism sound, and there is a sudden sound, and another groove is exposed.
Si Lengyue cut her fingertips, and dripped the blood gushing out of her fingertips into the groove. After a while, the groove retreated again, and the mechanism started working again, with a bang.
The black iron gate opened to both sides.
Qin Liuxi's mouth twitched.
"Please." Si Lengyue wrapped her fingertips with a handkerchief.
Qin Liuxi didn't move, but took out a finger-sized bottle from the cloth bag hanging on his waist, took Si Lengyue's hand, opened the bottle cap, and sprinkled the golden sore medicine on the wound.
Her movements were gentle and meticulous, and the blood soon stopped after the medicine was sprinkled on.
Si Lengyue looked at her drooping eyebrows and eyes, feeling a warm current poured into her normally cold heart, and the corners of her lips curled up.
Qin Liuxi wrapped her up again with a veil, then raised his head, and said disgustedly: "You ancestors, why did you do something wrong, why do you have to use your own blood to impose a ban on opening the door, it doesn't hurt to cut your hands? This is too stupid, if you want to break the door, you can go in as long as you catch it."
Under the restriction, you can use the secret method that is not passed down through the direct line. If you have to use the blood, what if the blood is caught?
Recently, the pace has been a bit slow, and I have been adjusting the detailed outline. Obviously, this is a story strung together by small units, not a main line. I hope I will not write collapse, because I really want to write well, and my ability Limitation is my scumbag problem. And for the children who stop here, thank you for your support all the way, come and go as you like, no need to say goodbye~
