Chapter 221 Borrowing Life
Nangong Yonghe smiled slightly: "There has always been a legend among the people about the resurrection of the dead. Have you ever heard of it, Lord?"
Is he showing his hand?
But Jiang Li couldn't admit it. How could she know if he was trying to trick her?
She frowned slightly, "A gentleman does not speak of strange things. What on earth does the prince want to say?"
Nangong Yonghe sighed, "I have no ill will towards you, so you don't have to be on guard against me, Lord."
“Everyone in the world thinks that those who are not of our race must have different hearts.”
"I'm sure you understand the loneliness and pain of having no one to talk to."
Nangong Qinghe looked at her with deep eyes.
"If Lord Xie knew the truth, what do you think he would do?"
"If the Marquis chooses me, you can rest assured."
Jiang Li was stunned. What did this mean? Openly stealing someone's girlfriend?
"Your Majesty is so elegant that he flirts with my wife in broad daylight!"
Xie Changan arrived just in time, and upon hearing this, he couldn't help but step inside.
He pulled Jiang Li behind him and said coldly, "Your Majesty has no sense of shame. I still have some dignity. Please forgive me for not accompanying you!"
Nangong Yonghe was not annoyed. He just looked at Jiang Li and said slowly: "Think about it carefully."
After saying that, he turned around to leave.
Jiang Li suddenly asked, "Why did the young prince of the Prince Qin's Mansion die? Does Your Majesty know the reason?"
Nangong Yonghe paused slightly, turned around, and smiled faintly: "Do you doubt me?"
Jiang Li didn't say anything either, she just stared at him with her eyes wide open.
Nangong Yonghe was stared at by this pair of pure and flawless eyes, and suddenly felt a little ashamed of himself. He lowered his eyes, laughed and left.
Xie Changan angrily asked, "What is he doing here? To express his feelings to you?"
Jiang Li frowned and told Xie Changan what Nangong Yonghe said one by one through the heart contract.
Xie Changan was greatly shocked: "Could it be that he is also one of them?"
Jiang Li said: "Let's go back to the room and talk."
The two walked into the inner room hand in hand.
Xie Changan held Jiang Li in his arms and said sullenly: "If he is really like you, would you..."
If Nangong Yonghe, like Jiang Li, also came from the world of cultivation, how could he compete with those from the upper realm?
Jiang Li burst out laughing: "Have you forgotten? We have made a covenant, and it has been approved by the Heavenly Dao. We will never be separated in this life. How can he surpass you?"
She thought of what Nangong Yonghe said, "I'm sure you understand the loneliness and pain that no one can tell", and couldn't help but put her face on Xie Changan's chest and whispered, "Brother Changan, fortunately, I have you."
She is luckier than Nangong Yonghe as she met someone who can tolerate everything about her.
Xie Changan was filled with love and compassion. He hugged her tightly and said with a smile, "I am also extremely grateful that God gave you to me."
He calmed down a little, and pondered Nangong Yonghe's words again, frowning: "How does he know that you are..."
Jiang Li thought for a moment: "Perhaps, his cultivation is higher than mine, or he has some magic weapon that can see through me."
Xiao Jin could tell that she was from another world because of her spiritual sense.
When the Gu King hit her and when she was in the Soul-Bewitching Pond, her consciousness had burst out with its greatest power, which was why she was captured by Xiao Jin, who also came from another world.
But she had never used the power of her spiritual consciousness in front of Nangong Yonghe.
There is only one conclusion, the soul from another world in his body is very likely to have a higher cultivation level than hers!
Xie Changan couldn't help but worry deeply: "If he becomes our enemy, how should we deal with it?"
No matter how high their martial arts skills are, they are still mortals. How can they deal with these aliens?
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Just like Xiao Jin, he certainly wouldn't dare to use his spiritual power, lest he be rejected by the Heavenly Dao."
"I can just make some more defensive jade talismans."
At this point, she couldn't help scratching her head, "I have to deal with Longmen's affairs and get married, I really can't do it in two places!"
"It would be great if I could create clones like Master, one to look after the account books, one to get married, and the other to carve jade talismans!"
Xie Changan was both angry and amused. He held her slender waist and gritted his teeth and said, "You actually regard getting married as a task?"
Jiang Li pouted: "Why is marriage in the mortal world so complicated? Can't we just bow to heaven and earth like we did when we made a vow of love?"
Not only does one have to ask for a matchmaker and propose marriage, but also they have to send three letters and six ceremonies. I heard that on the wedding day, the bride has to get up early in the morning to dress up, and she's not allowed to eat the whole day!
"This is not a marriage, this is clearly abusing the bride!"
Xie Changan laughed: "Don't worry, eat whatever you want, I won't let you starve."
Jiang Li pouted: "Aunt Lian won't let me eat it!"
Xie Changan smiled and said, "I will quietly put a food box in the flower bridge. You can eat your fill and then come down. Who will know?"
Jiang Li smiled and took the initiative to kiss him: "Brother Changan, you are the best!"
Xie Changan smiled without saying anything, his eyes were deep. Only when you are full can you have strength...
Jiang Li was completely unaware and returned to business: "By the way, didn't His Majesty order the Imperial Hospital and Longmen Medical Bureau to treat the King of Wei?"
"Brother Shen should know what his physical condition is."
Xie Changan nodded: "Yes, you can ask Brother Shen."
Jiang Li sat up from Xie Changan's arms and called out to the door, "Zhen'er, ask Qingfeng to go get Doctor Shen."
"Yes, my lord!" Zhen'er took the order and left.
Jiang Li then instructed Zhu'er: "Ask Longmen Restaurant to send a table of food."
"Yes, I'll go right away."
Soon, Shen Muchun arrived.
Jiang Li got straight to the point: "I suspect that the King of Wei was involved in the death of the King of Qin's youngest son!"
Shen Muchun was shocked: "What did you find?"
Jiang Li shook his head: "There is no evidence, just a hunch."
Shen Muchun: ...
Jiang Li asked again: "Brother Shen, have you ever treated him? What's going on inside his body?"
"I can't say for sure." Shen Muchun's brows furrowed deeply. "Come to think of it, the pulse of the King of Wei is indeed a little strange."
"He was poisoned by a strange poison called 'Cuckoo's Blood'. The poisoned person will cough up blood and eventually die from bleeding."
"Because it was the mother who was poisoned, Madam Su had to meet a master who detoxified the fetus in time, so that the fetus could be saved. Also, because he was born with the poison, the poison entered his lungs and there was basically no cure. He could only rely on internal strength to suppress it."
"As he got older, the poison penetrated deep into his brain, causing him to have splitting headaches. I could only make medicine to relieve his headaches, but I couldn't cure the poison."
"When the poison enters the bone marrow and the internal strength can no longer suppress it, the poison will cause death. It can be said that the King of Wei will not live long."
Shen Muchun said slowly: "The strange thing is that his pulse is clearly showing signs of exhaustion, but there is an extremely strong vitality that maintains his body's functions."
Jiang Li and Xie Changan looked at each other. Could this be the soul from another world?
However, Shen Muchun also checked her pulse and found that there was no such situation.
The body of the original noblewoman fits her soul perfectly, as if it was tailor-made for her.
So, the otherworldly soul in Nangong Yonghe's body is not compatible with his body?
"There is another source of life?" Xie Changan sensitively grasped the doubt in Shen Muchun's words, "What does this mean?"
Shen Muchun scratched his head: "I can't really say, it seems like an external force?"
"external force?"
Xie Changan frowned. Is there anyone in this world who can inject vitality into a person's body?
"Is there a possibility," Jiang Li said slowly, "that this vitality was borrowed, or even stolen?"
Shen Muchun and Xie Changan both looked at her in horror.
"Have you ever heard of borrowing or extending a life?"
The so-called borrowing life means transferring one person's life span or vitality to another person through some kind of ritual or spell, in order to achieve the purpose of prolonging life.
Jiang Li continued, "Assuming that the King of Wei is the real murderer, then he may have used some kind of magic to transfer the vitality and lifespan of the young prince to himself."
"That's why the little prince died for no reason!"
Shen Muchun and Xie Changan could not help but feel horrified.
Shen Muchun pondered and said, "The idea of borrowing lives has been around for a long time. It is said that people who are related by blood are more likely to borrow lives successfully."
As the son of King Qin, he is the uncle and nephew of Nangong Yonghe, so naturally they have a very close blood relationship!
"The King of Wei actually knows this evil magic?"
Jiang Li and Xie Changan looked at each other again. Nangong Yonghe had a soul from another world in his body. If he was from the world of cultivation like Jiang Li, he would naturally have all kinds of magical powers.
Jiang Li hurriedly said in her heart: "I can't do that! Our Beast Taming Sect is a famous and upright sect, we don't know these evil techniques!"
Xie Changan also asked in his heart: "So, the one inside him is an evil cultivator?"
Jiang Li nodded: "Very likely."
