- "Emperor Zhou? Bah."
Shen Shentong said to Shen Yue with a sneer on his face.
¡°Back then, my great-grandfather didn¡¯t need to seal away demons and monsters from outside the world. There were so many capable people and strangers in the world, why should he be sacrificed?
At that time, the great grandfather had become powerful enough to compete with Emperor Zhou for the world. But for the sake of the world, he decided to sacrifice himself. But it was this decision that turned the Shen family into a tragedy. "
¡°Dad, are you saying that the royal family knows about Grandpa¡¯s sacrifice?¡±
"I knew it from the beginning, but it was later spread into other versions. Now, I'm afraid even the royal family doesn't know about it. Only Shen Qianli in the capital knows about it."
As Shen Shentong said, Shen Yue suddenly remembered a story.
A group of gods are trapped in a desperate situation. At this time, as long as one of them is willing to sacrifice himself and explode, the other gods can be saved. But there is only one ending, and all the gods die there.
Why?
To those gods, only oneself is the most precious existence.
After death, it doesn¡¯t matter no matter how good the compensation is or how many promises you make.
"A gentleman's zeal will be cut off in five generations. Although some people are grateful for what the great grandfather has done, but what about ten or a hundred years later?
"Yue'er, if someone says today, my ancestors saved your grandfather's grandfather, so you have to serve me all the time, are you willing?" "
Shen Yue was silent. The Shen family respected him as a prince, but the head of the family had no power. For many people, it is like a child holding gold in the busy city.
After the death of Zhou Taizu, the Shen family was immediately deprived of the throne and became a duke, and then was reduced every generation. The reason is very simple. The Shen family has no power of its own, how can it be respected or scrupled?
In this way, the Shen family declined from generation to generation until someone took everything away and was driven out of the capital.
"It's only been three hundred years since what happened, and no one has come forward?"
Facing Shen Yue¡¯s question, Shen Shentong shook his head.
At that time, everyone was old, and Shen Qianli was in the world. Who would come to help?
The most I can say is that it is a grudge between our grandparents, what does it have to do with us?
What¡¯s more, Shen Wudi placed a restriction on his own bloodline. In this restriction, there is a hint in the souls of the children of the Shen family that when it comes to sealing, they will all choose to sacrifice.
Therefore, there is no need to consider the wishes of the Shen family, because the Shen family will choose to sacrifice themselves. "
Shen Shentong's face was full of sorrow. This is the sorrow of the Shen family. The other party has seen through all the trump cards. What can the Shen family do in exchange?
Since the Shen family has decided to devote themselves unconditionally, then why bother paying attention to them?
"In the past three hundred years, the Shen family has been passed down for eighteen generations, and seventeen family heads have died for the seal. Yue'er, there are still several years until the time of sealing comes, so you don't have to worry about this."
"Dad, I"
Shen Yue wanted to say something, but was blocked by Shen Shentong.
"Live well and live hard. What the Shen family can boast most is that after eighteen generations, there has never been an example of me letting my son die instead.
This is the pride of the Shen family, Yueer, you should also maintain this pride! Moreover, you don¡¯t know how to seal it at all, do you? "
Shen Yue nodded and asked, "Dad, is there really no way to lift this seal?"
Shen Shentong shook his head. If there was a way, the Shen family would have already thought of it. Which of Shen Wudi and the first few heads of the Shen family have not sought or begged for?
And this curse has a characteristic that outsiders cannot see the existence of the curse at all!
Apart from the fact that the bloodline of the Shen family can only be passed down to one person and cannot practice martial arts, there is no other way to prove the existence of the curse. Even in the holy land of Buddhism and Taoism, the answer is the same.
============
"This matter is simply ridiculous. The safety of the world depends on the Shen family?"
The high priest¡¯s story came to an end, but Emperor Zhou still didn¡¯t quite believe it.
"It's not ridiculous, it's just to see if others believe it or not. However, don't worry, Your Majesty, a demon that has been sealed for such a long time will still be very weak even if it comes out. If Shen Wudi can seal it, people today can naturally do it too. After hundreds of years There are endless masters coming, even when the demons are at their peak, there is still nothing they can do. "
The high priest said calmly, seemingly not taking the matter seriously.
Although the Shen family sacrificed themselves to seal away the demons from outside the world, they saved the world. But for other people, what does it have to do with them?
Or rather, everyone doesn¡¯t believe it at all. For Emperor Zhou or the high priest, if there is no sign of the phoenix entering the dream, they will not pay attention to the Shen family.Things.
He frowned, and something suddenly occurred to Emperor Zhou's mind.
A year and a half ago, the officials he sent to Pinghaihou reported the matter. A man named Shen Yue claimed that cowpox vaccination was his invention and Pinghaihou had stolen his results. And this man with a serious nature is distantly related to the Shen family in Chang'an.
This piece of information only flashed before Emperor Zhou¡¯s eyes, and he did not pay attention to it.
At that time, the imperial court had already commended Pinghaihou, and people all over the world believed that this was what Pinghaihou had done. But now that I think about it, could this Shen Yue be the bloodline left behind by the Shen family?
I don¡¯t know, has he been silenced by Marquis Pinghai?
He clapped his hands and asked the guard from afar to come up and said: "The person in charge of Haizhou City, let him come to see me."
============
It was getting very late, but Shen Yue didn't feel sleepy at all.
He is digesting everything Shen Shentong told him, including his own fate.
"Dad, from now on, will my son or grandson also have to sacrifice his life for the seal?"
"No, the number in the world is respected by nine. The yin and yang of the Phoenix God Seal are mutually reinforcing, which means that the Shen family only needs to sacrifice eighteen lives to completely seal away the demons outside the world."
Shen Shentong stretched out his hand and looked at Shen Yue with a smile.
"So, after your father and I sacrificed, you no longer have to worry about these things. Don't argue with me. If you had a son, would you be willing to let him sacrifice? What's more, you don't know how to seal the demon, so , it¡¯s worth it to find a good wife so that dad can see his grandson before he dies.¡±
There was blood boiling in her heart, and Shen Yue wanted to cry.
Father and son have not been together for a long time, and they rarely have such heart-to-heart conversations. But tonight's conversation made the relationship between father and son even closer.
"I heard that you are pursuing the girl named Shen. This is a good thing. Don't worry and go after her.
¡°Don¡¯t be afraid of not being worthy of her, our Shen family is the top family in the world. Even if you are a princess, you can marry her home. "
Shen Yue nodded, not because of his identity, but because he really liked Xu Manhua.
"It's a pity that when Grandpa left Beijing, that beast Shen Qianli only gave him a large sum of money, but he was not allowed to take away any of the secrets of martial arts, magical weapons, etc.
Grandpa was also stubborn and left Beijing directly.
Although the secret manual was recited silently and passed down orally to future generations, there were always some omissions in it. In addition, no one succeeded in practicing it, so they were all lost in the end. Otherwise, taking something out of it would be the best betrothal gift. "
"Lost?"
Shen Yue was a little disappointed, but he could only sigh.
He didn¡¯t notice the helplessness at the corner of Shen Shentong¡¯s mouth.
On earth, many good things from other families are only passed down to their children after they get married and have children. What I'm afraid of is that young people are too passionate and don't know whether things are valuable or not.
============
No one knew about the conversation between father and son. In the following days, Shen Shentong never mentioned the matter again, while Shen Yue continued to find Xu Manhua.
Maybe, in the bloody eight o'clock episode, Shen Yue should shrink back - his father's life is coming to an end, and no one can tell whether the demon can be completely sealed.
The person who helped seal it in the first place was able to plot against Shen Wudi, and might have tampered with the Phoenix Divine Seal. When the time comes, it would be even worse if Shen Yue catches Xu Manhua and dies suddenly, leaving an orphan and a widowed mother.
But Shen Yue didn¡¯t think about it this way.
Everyone will die, but you can¡¯t give up better things just because of death.
He is determined to bring happiness to Xu Manhua. He believes that his love can make the two people live a better life.
Before the two people come together, he will tell Xu Manhua the truth.
As for sealing the demons from outside the world?
============
Xu Manhua sat in front of the pond and looked at the wave of clear water.
When she was on the Qinhuai River, she often thought, is the water in this world open? Will they all be connected in the end?
Shen Yue told her a story about a red noble. At the end of the story, the girl chose the sea.
A beautiful figure walked behind her and stared at her deeply.
"Manhua, are you tempted?"
"Miss Third?"
With a shock in her body, Xu Manhua turned around and looked at the woman behind her with an unbelievable look.
Xie Xiaofu, Xie Wangsun¡¯s sister. She is twenty-one years old this year, half a year older than Xu Manhua.
??If Xu Manhua came out of the mist in the south of the Yangtze River?Talented woman, then Xie Xiaofu is a rouge horse from the north.
Her skin is white and rosy, and her healthy color is enviable. Her face is beautiful and elegant, like a peony blooming in the wind, her cheeks are rosy with rouge, and her eyes are flowing, proud and beautiful, just like a fairy descending from the world.
When Xu Manhua wanted to marry into the Xie family, the most difficult hurdle was her. Xie Xiaofu and Hua Mengling had a very good relationship and opposed Xie Wangsun marrying another person. Her relationship with Xu Manhua was average, and she didn't send Xu Manhua off this time when he came to Haizhou City.
But today, why is she here?
And what she said made Xu Manhua almost unable to control herself.
