Chapter 461: The Storyteller

Xue Jinyi only listened to half of it, but she had already guessed the rough idea of the story.

What Shen Qingmo said was that before the destruction of the ancient city of the Western Night, there was a team of guards who wanted to escort the bloodlines of the royal family out. They fought their way through a bloody path, but were finally surrounded by people when they were only ten feet away from the city gate.

The fate of the royal family and the guards was terrible, they were executed on the spot, and the blood seeped into the dirt and stained a large area red.

These people, who were supposed to be free, died unjustly at the gates of the city, and after being turned into unjust spirits, they still could not get out, and in vain they slammed and voided the door again and again, and let out pain and screams.

This story made everyone who heard it sigh.

Especially after attacking the Somali military camp, they were shocked to find out what happened to the prisoners, and such a tragic story is always extremely sad.

Xue Jinyi asked: "A few days ago, didn't I do a Dharma to overdo it for those who died unjustly in the war, and I wish them a safe and smooth future life. I thought, since the various legends of the Ancient City of the West Night have been around for a long time and have made people panic, why don't you also ask the masters to go there and do a ritual? ”

Everyone nodded their heads, thinking it was a good idea.

In this way, they may be able to see the West Night Ancient City for a while.

Anyway, there is no time limit to return to the capital, so they don't have to rush so much.

Xue Jinyi asked again: "Boss Shen, you are familiar with the Ancient City of the West Night, what do you think of me?" ”

"Excellent." Shen Qingmo applauded lightly, "Princess Chu's benevolent heart makes people respectful. ”

Xue Jinyi smiled and changed the topic, "Speaking of which, Boss Shen came to the frontier this time, and the gifts he brought didn't come in handy, so I don't know what to do?" ”

Shen Qingmo said: "Sell it along the road, you can't run in vain." ”

"Boss Shen doesn't plan to go west and have a look?" Xue Jinyi raised her chin and pointed to a carriage behind him, "Your goods, the people of the Western Regions will be very interested." ”

"Hmm." Shen Qingmo nodded, "I do have this plan, but I have to go to the West Night Ancient City at the earliest, and then turn to the west." After all, I'm the most familiar with the ancient city of the West Night here, so be the guide of the King of Chu and you, right? ”

Xue Jinyi smiled and said, "Then there is Boss Lao Shen." ”

"Don't dare, I just want to see it again." Shen Qingmo looked into the distance, "Such a magnificent beauty makes people never get tired of seeing it." ”

His expression made everyone yearn for the ancient city of the West Night even more.

"Boss Shen is a good storyteller......"

Shen Qingmo raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard Xue Jinyi's words.

Xue Jinyi's face did not change, and continued: "It's interesting, it's a good thing for everyone to listen to the story and relax their energy. ”

Shen Qingmo's raised eyebrows did not go down.

"Princess Chu just thinks it's funny?" He couldn't help but ask.

"That was a thousand years ago, and who knows if it's true?" Xue Jinyi looked indifferent, "Don't be too sad, everyone." We're going to leave early tomorrow morning, so let's rest early. ”

She bowed to the crowd and turned to leave.

Shen Qingmo's eyes were slightly dark, and it was not until Xue Jinyi's figure disappeared into the night that he turned back to the bonfire.

Everyone was talking about Princess Chu's words.

"Yes, don't be too sad, it's good to listen to this kind of story, it has been passed down orally for thousands of years, and it is easiest to spread it by falsehood."

"You're right, some people like to make up stories that are particularly miserable, so as to arouse the sympathy of others, and pay more money for rewards?"

"Ahh

Shen Qingmo laughed dryly, "It's originally a pastime." ”

In the tent, Pu Yangxuan was packing up his books, and when he heard the sound, he looked up with a smile.

Xue Jinyi sighed: "As a result, I read such a book, but it is not worth the work of a vicious wolf for a while." ”

Pu Yangxuan stepped forward and hugged her shoulder, "Who said that?" If he hadn't read these books with Ah Jin, where would he have guessed that He Hao and the others would look down on Daman, who relied on his sister to climb to a high position? ”

The extremely arrogant Soo nobles never regarded the inferior and commoner pariahs as superior to them, and they considered themselves superior and could not tolerate being offended by anyone.

They were supposed to be arrogant, but they also died in arrogance in the end.

Xue Jinyi smiled faintly.

Pu Yangxuan said again: "Moreover, it is also beneficial to read books in your eyes and remember them in your heart, enriching your knowledge." ”

"Yes, yes, our Ah Xuan is really good at comforting people!" Xue Jinyi smiled, "The matter of the nobles of the Suo Kingdom has also taught us that we cannot be arrogant and arrogant, no matter what class the other party is, we must treat it with a peaceful and benevolent heart." ”

It's the same as in modern times – everyone is equal.

Pu Yangxuan said: "That's right. ”

He has experienced many hardships, and he always has the identity of "King of Chu", and he will not think very highly of himself.

It's so important to have a good grasp of people's hearts.

Pu Yangxuan smiled and took Xue Jinyi to sit down on the edge of the couch, "Father seems to have said a lot to you?" ”

"Not much," Xue Jinyi shook her head and told him about Shen Qingmo, "...... What do you think? ”

Puyang Xuan said: "I have repeatedly mentioned the unjust souls in the ancient city of the West Night, and in the dark it makes people feel that they are not ghosts, but human ......."

He looked at Xue Jinyi with serious eyes.

"This is the secret of the Ancient City of the West Night."

Xue Jinyi frowned, "If that's the case, does he want to borrow a knife to kill someone......

Pu Yangxuan said: "I will send someone to investigate first, whether it is a person or a ghost, I think we will know before we arrive at the ancient city of the West Night." ”

"The terrain around the ancient city of West Night is complex and the climate is harsh, so you must be careful." Xue Jinyi admonished.

"Well, I'm afraid this road is more difficult than going to the Suo State military camp...... Pu Yangxuan held Xue Jinyi's hand, "I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning, Ah Jin should rest early." ”

"Okay."

Pu Yangxuan went out for a trip and came back soon, and the two rested early.

On the second day, the sky was clear, and the team officially set off, Xue Zhao knew that there were still people with evil intentions in the team, so he secretly sent people in batches to secretly answer and escort in front of and behind the team.

In addition, a group of more than 2,000 soldiers are also preparing to return to Toyosu and will walk with them for a while.

The march was a secret matter, so it made sense that it would only be known to others on the day of departure.

Shen Qingmo saw the mighty army, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Annu: "It seems that this time it is more secure." ”

"Alas, Childe still cares about the life and death of others."

Shen Qingmo touched his chin, "What I want more is to solve my own troubles......"

Annu looked at his son-in-law's smiling appearance, shook his head and sighed.

At night, the team set up camp, and Tian Bin, who had gone out to inquire about the news, came back.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, in the ancient city of the Western Night......" his face was extremely serious, "there is firelight. ”
