Master Han Ming

Chapter 41 Loulan's Past

Since we existed on the Silk Road, we seem to have become a local rich man who made a fortune in the world and gradually transformed into a wealthy nobleman, and we became extravagant invisibly, just like Asi.

She should have been deeply influenced by her previous life. Since she was born, she has an elegant temperament that is different from ordinary people. She is not only beautiful but also capable. I also started to believe in God like the world. She is the God in my heart. I have always looked up to her .

Learn something called connotation.

Practice martial arts, read those profound ancient books.

Day after day, nearly ten years passed, and the originally peaceful life became turbulent. I should have thought of it a long time ago. There is a word called blessing and misfortune.

Cooperating with the imperial court is to enter the vortex of power and money struggle. The Xiongnu, who have always been against the imperial court, found us and asked us to rob the royal court's royal caravan and the people who passed by the merchants together to add to the imperial court.Guess we're rich enough and guaranteed cooperation with the imperial court, why do these bandits with them?

But there is no way, they kidnapped our clansman, this is not seeking cooperation at all but a threat, only Asi can rescue people unscathed, but she is already married, married far away for a while She can't come back at all, and she should not be too tired when she is pregnant, and don't let her wear out unless necessary. We can only compromise for the safety of our clansmen.

once...twice...three times...

The imperial court thought we were going to rebel and had already started to guard against us, beating us from time to time.The proud face of the Xiongnu after the successful robbery stimulated me all the time and made me upset.

After I got the crown, my father and I became the elders in Loulan. I began to recruit soldiers secretly. At first, it was just to save my people and ensure that they would not be harmed in the future, but gradually I changed my mind. It is better to be active than passive. To be inferior is to be always in fear.

Instead of being afraid of them attacking... it's better to stand on the highest ground by yourself, who else would dare to mess with me then?

I surpassed the king and rejected the request of the minister sent by the court to find out that he liked Liuguangshi from the bottom of his heart, with an attitude that was no longer friendly.

War is about to break out.

After a while, the two sides started fighting.

Asi who rushed back saw the fierce battle in front of her eyes, she was full of disbelief, and she was holding a baby in her arms, presumably it was her child.

"I came back when I heard the news, but it was still too late..."

"Ace." I smiled at her, "We only rob the nearby caravans, and you can't get the news if you are far away. What's more, the court has a very strict tone. I learned that you should not know if you stay at home during pregnancy, and I have been preparing for this war for six months."

"Isn't six months enough for you to think clearly?" Asi also smiled at me, but a little sadly, "Even if you have tens of millions of soldiers and horses, you will not be able to resist the court after all, why can't you think of it? ..."

"The comparison is not just people, look at the situation, don't we have the possibility of success?" The long-term hard work is seen as worthless, and the negation is still the god in my heart. I can't help being a little excited, "A Si, Besides, you're back too, aren't you?"

"It's not just soldiers and horses that are compared in war, but also intelligence. The court is full of talents, even if they are only better than sergeants, they are much more than you think. Even if they are not enough, they can borrow troops from the friendly tribe, but what about us?"

I was going to refute again, but Asi's actions made me shut up.

She stuffed the child in her arms to me, with a desolate look on her face but she didn't speak anymore. She waved her fingers with each other and all of them were forced out of a hole, bleeding out.The blood beads did not fall but floated around her, emitting a faint light.

How is this going?

I reached out to pull her, but she also floated into the air, only a piece of her clothes slipped through my hand, but I couldn't catch it.

"I came back to stop you, but it was obviously too late. He Chuan, you know that fingers connect with hearts. I am willing to destroy my heart to help you find a way out. If you still miss our friendship, please stop." Come on, give the tribe a piece of pure land."

Why didn't I do this to give the people a piece of pure land?

Even if there is a little selfish desire to rule the roost, it will not harm Loulan, it can only lead it forward.

Afterwards, the scene changed unexpectedly. Whether my soldiers in Loulan were fighting fiercely or not, they all returned to the city gate, and so did I.Those recruited foreigners were shocked when they saw the comrades beside them disappear suddenly, and unconsciously put down the knives in their hands.

I don't know who asked: "Where is Loulan? Why is Loulan gone? Why is such a big city gone?"

I was more surprised than them, what is missing?

I was standing right above the city gate, but they couldn't see me.And what they said is that Loulan is gone, the city is gone!

The imperial army was also very different.

The war just stopped.

"So... how could such a big city disappear?"

"But it won't be us who are dazzled!"

"It's gone! It's really gone! Could it be... a ghost?"

"Ghost? Ghost!"

In their guesses and discussions, I saw a large number of soldiers and horses with the banner of the imperial court gathered, probably the reinforcements of the imperial court.I roughly counted, and my heart suddenly sank. This is three times as many people as us.

Didn't it mean that the imperial court was under the enemy's back and forth, and couldn't spare its manpower?How could this be? Could it be that they deliberately released fake news in order to set us up?

Ash, maybe you're right...

But what did she do?

Most of the clansmen in the city gathered together, climbed up the city wall and came to me, looked inside and out, listened to the chattering guesses from outsiders, and asked me with wide eyes: "What's going on here?"

"what happened?"

I also want to know.

I waved towards the outside, but none of them noticed me at all, even though they all looked in my direction.

I seem to understand what Asi has done. She isolated us from the world, thus preventing the possibility of being conquered by the court.

The light hanging in mid-air has faded, and she slowly fell from the sky, landed steadily beside me, quietly closed her eyes without any movement.

"Ace?"

Holding her child in my arms, I leaned over and reached out to touch her, only to find that she was silent, her body didn't even move when she breathed.

She couldn't help trembling when she put her finger under her nose, and she didn't breathe.

The tender playmate I grew up with, she died.

Unlike the last time I learned of her "death" and was immersed in grief for a long time, the current situation is so tense that I can't prepare even a funeral for her.

We can't get out of this gate at all.

How similar or worse is the situation in the village, we used to be ignorant and didn't know how to go out, but now we are forced to go out.No matter how much gold, silver and jewels there are in the city, they are useless. If you can't go out to buy food and drink, they are just a pile of useless dead things.

The clansmen were all terrified.

I think no matter whether it is for Asi himself or the tribe, Asi must be brought back to life. She said that as long as she does not die, Loulan will be fine. As long as she is alive, she will be able to return to the previous situation!

I read through a pile of ancient books left by Asi, focusing on finding forbidden arts such as life. She prevented me from reading these forbidden arts before, but I searched for other ordinary Taoist arts. This is the last hope.

Turning over the first page of the sky-shattering method, those who succeed in one line will die, and if they fail, the caster will die of exhaustion for half a month. I adopted a forbidden technique printed after it.

Sacrifice.

Although this method is vicious, it is the only way.

I asked someone to preserve Asi's body, and started a century-long plan.

Take the blood of the closest relatives to form an array, use the exact drawing in the book to position the sacrificed person, and let the bloodletting wait for the sacrifice to be completed.

After the death of her parents, the only remaining relative of Asi was the child she brought back. It was a girl, and I named her Nian Si.Considering that Asi only has such a close relative and offspring, I raised Niansi with delicious food and drink, and sacrificed her after she gave birth to offspring, so that it can last for a long time.

She was 17 when she performed the sacrifice, which was our first sacrifice.I looked at her who was bathed in blood and turned around, waved my hand and said, "From now on, Asi is the god of our tribe, it is our belief, we worship her and respect her, she is her follower Asijiao, At the same time, she will bless our hometown forever!"

Aspen was originally just an object of my admiration, but after I saw the letterhead she left in the study, sandwiched in ancient books, I had a subtle emotion, she is absolutely a god, it is incredible.

But since she was kind to me, I tried my best to give her the most.

The letter said: He Chuan, you are a good boy, but the things you experienced when you were young are too limited. You should visit this great world more often.It is also my selfishness, wanting to give me the best playmates from childhood to adulthood, I will give you the immortality that countless people want, but when you feel tired, everything will end.

This letter will be delivered to you when you realize that you will not grow old, which is also a surprise!

This is really a surprise and a convenience, so that I can always personally supervise the sacrifices of generations without accidents.

After all, he did not reach the point where the mountains and waters were exhausted. The sacrifice kept Asi's body from rotting and wrinkling. Although he still did not breathe, his beautiful face remained the same, and his shelter remained unchanged. After the first success, there was a steady stream of wealth and food The source, the gates of the city will always open when we are not paying attention, passers-by who discuss the mystery of our disappearance of Loulan will forget what they brought with them, blown in by a gust of wind and disappear from the sight of the world, and become our things.

Seems wicked enough.

Year after year, everything is fine except that Asi cannot wake up and Loulan no longer has the glory of the past. I have tried my best to endure the mediocrity all day long, but someone still wants to destroy this balance.

That person who seemed out of place, she was called Chang Lu, not only was she unwilling to perform sacrifices...
