All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Shen Lingxi did not expect that the truth of her own death in her previous life would still hide such a secret.

She couldn't tell what it was like.

hate it?complain?

Since ancient times, dynasties and regimes have changed, and her position, becoming a victim, seems to be an inevitable result.

But if there is a choice, who would rather die than live?
After all, the prince Yunchong, who is also in a high position, can survive under the full protection of his scumbag father.

Fortunately, she was blessed by God and had a chance to live again.

Back then, she was coerced by Emperor Lie, and she climbed up the tower without hesitation, in order to save the lives of everyone in the Yao Palace.

But now, since she already knew that everyone in the Yao Palace was murdered by someone, she would have to seek back this debt from those people one by one.

"The holy mountain was destroyed, how did you survive and be with them? How did Yunhong Mountain die?" Shen Lingxi asked in a deep voice.

Kui Nineteen: "I hid in the sarcophagus and survived by chance, but they also caught me. It was Wuerda who saved my life because of my puppet skills. I have been following Wuerda all these years. Stay on the snow mountain."

"More than 20 days ago, Concubine Xiao sent someone to say that Yun Hongshan was seriously ill, and asked him to go to the palace for treatment. When we arrived, Yun Hongshan had been dead for three days, so Uerda ordered me to make his body into a puppet."

"Then why did Urda kill you?" Shen Lingxi asked again.

Kui Nineteen's face turned blank, he shook his head, "I don't know... I thought he was here to save me, but I didn't expect..."

Shen Lingxi pondered for a few breaths.

Since Wu Erda spared Kui Nineteen's life, there must be something Kui Nineteen could use for him.

It is impossible to kill him just by making him a puppet once.

She was the one who ruined their affairs tonight. When the incident happened urgently, Wu Erda chose to kill people to silence them.

Presumably Kui Jiu must know something, which made him have to take the risk.

Fortunately, Shen Lingxi can see ghosts. To her, "killing people to silence them" is just superfluous.

She can slowly find the answer from Kui Jiu.

"Then do you know if Wu Erda has set up any special organs or circles in this mansion?" Shen Lingxi asked again.

"Yes." Kui Nineteen hurriedly said: "He has been thinking about something called the reincarnation circle these years. It seems to be recorded in the handbook left by the former master of the state. It is said that it can make people reincarnated. Only by collecting enough dead souls can we succeed."

"So no matter where he goes, he will take his treasures with him, put them in a room alone, and set up a soul lock array."

Shen Lingxi's expression froze.

Isn't she "reincarnated"?
Shen Lingxi thought of those lost souls again, and asked solemnly: "Where is the house? Take me there."

Kui Nineteen gave her a Yunjiang etiquette, and said respectfully: "Master, please come with me."

As he spoke, he floated away.

Shen Lingxi started to follow, but suddenly remembered that Mu Huaian was also in the room, turned her head and explained to him: "Kui Nineteen knows where Wuerda locked the dead soul, I will go with him now."

"I'll go with you too." Mu Huai'an stood up and said.

Shen Lingxi vaguely reminded: "There should be a lot of ghosts in that place, you..."

Before he finished speaking, Mu Huai'an had already walked to her side, opened the door, and gestured "please" to her.

Seeing this, Shen Lingxi didn't say anything more, followed Kui Jiu and walked out of the courtyard.

*
The room where Wuerda arranged the Soul Locking Formation is, in terms of Fengshui, the most shady place in the entire palace, so it is very remote.

On the way, Shen Lingxi didn't intend to reveal too much of Kui Jiu's confession to Mu Huai'an, so she remained silent.

On the contrary, it was Mu Huai'an, who was in the room just now, when he heard "Holy Mountain" from her mouth, his eyes were always filled with contemplation.

He asked in a low voice: "Since Wuerda has set up a soul-locking array in this mansion, why isn't Kui Nineteen locked in?"

"It should be too late." Shen Lingxi thought about it and replied: "Chunjun and the others are all people with high martial arts skills. Even if they are controlled by Zhu Youshu, it is only temporary. He can take the opportunity to kill people and escape in time, which should be the limit .”

Mu Huai'an nodded clearly, and said hesitantly, "The holy mountain you mentioned just now...is that Yun Kingdom imperial tomb that was destroyed five years ago?"

Shen Lingxi didn't stop, squinted at him, and asked calmly, "You know about this?"

Mu Huai'an pondered and replied: "It was widely rumored in the capital that it was His Royal Highness who ordered the destruction of the holy mountain before returning to the court. That's why the first prince... that is, Emperor Xiaode, died suddenly on the day he returned to Beijing. They said that first The death of the crown prince is the curse of Emperor Lie, and it is also the divine punishment sent down by the gods for the destruction of the sacred mountain of Yunguo."

Shen Lingxi stopped abruptly.

"You said that the destruction of the holy mountain was... Chu Yan's order?" She looked astonished.

Mu Huai'an: "Everyone in the know knows that in the tomb in the holy mountain, only the tomb of the little princess and her mother's mother remained undestroyed because of his deep love for you... Who else would it be?"

Shen Lingxi pursed her lips, "Folk rumors are not to be believed."

She did not believe that Chu Yan was killing innocent people indiscriminately.

Otherwise, how could he have buried her body in the first place?

Mu Huai'an could guess what she was thinking at a glance, "Anyway, after the Kingdom of Yun was destroyed, the late Emperor only left His Highness and the Xu family army stationed in Yunjiang. If it wasn't for his order, Yun Hongshan wouldn't have the guts to destroy the holy mountain."

When Shen Lingxi heard the word "no guts", the corners of Shen Lingxi's lips felt a little mocking.

"In order to become the king of Yunjiang, he even plotted to kill the saint. A mere holy mountain is just a tomb of the dead. In his eyes, he is probably even less worth mentioning than the saint."

Mu Huaian was stunned for a moment.

"Didn't you..." He paused, and quickly changed his words, "Didn't the saint be killed by Emperor Lie back then? What does it have to do with Yun Hongshan?"

Shen Lingxi sneered: "Emperor Li has been blinded by wine and sex for a long time. How do you think he came up with such a dirty idea? If the saint is alive, how can Yun Hongshan, the king of Yunjiang, win the hearts of the people, and how can he be the throne?" Can you sit still?"

Such a simple truth, Shen Lingxi just didn't think of this level before.

Mu Huai'an is naturally transparent.

For some reason, these words reminded him of the fact that the Mu family took down five cities in Yunjiang in one go with the help of Yun Hongshan.

He frowned unconsciously.

Seeing his appearance, Shen Lingxi also remembered what Yun Chong said that day about the collusion between Yun Hongshan and the Mu family, and she also lowered her eyes.

Up to now, as she learned more and more clues back then, the truth of the matter became more and more confusing.

Shen Lingxi now only hopes that Wuerda can lock up the soul of Yun Hongshan like he did to Xie Zhangting and Xie Zhanghua.

As long as Yun Hongshan's soul remains, all mysteries can be solved.

Thinking of this, she walked again without saying a word, speeding up to follow behind Kui Jiu.

The two had their own concerns, and they had nothing to say halfway.

All the way to the small courtyard close to the Wuerda formation——

The courtyard was not lit, and the courtyard door was wide open, revealing a strange feeling.

Shen Lingxi smelled keenly that there seemed to be a very faint fragrance in the air, which penetrated into the tip of her nose.

It is "drunk"!
Shen Lingxi's heart sank, she covered her mouth and nose, and said in a low voice: "The smell here is strange, you all should be careful."

As she spoke, she signaled Kui Jiu to go and investigate in the yard with her eyes.

Kui Nineteen nodded, and floated in directly through the wall.

However, just a few breaths after he floated in——

"what!"

Shen Lingxi only heard a scream, and saw Kui Jiujiu's white ghost, like a ball, bounced high and far away from a corner of the yard...

It's Chu Yan!
Realizing this, Shen Lingxi's face changed slightly.

If those dead souls are locked here and Chu Yan approaches them, wouldn't it be...

Not daring to delay, she quickly walked towards the yard...
