Tyrant, he wants to spoil me

Chapter 1104 The Curse of the Lu Family

Twilight dims.

Su Jiu thought that there would be nothing to do when he returned to Yunxiang Palace anyway, so he lit the lights in the Buddhist scripture pavilion, sat behind the desk with a stack of ghost prison geography, and read it carefully.

The so-called knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, knowing the geography and culture of the ghost prison is beneficial to her.

The night was like splashed ink, completely covering the entire city of Shangjing.

Lu Zhi turned a page carefully, his fingertips resting on the engraved font, and did not continue to slide down.

Years in the dark, he developed a more acute sense of hearing than others.

He heard that the doctor girl was also reading, she turned the pages very fast, she should be a very smart girl.

A few times of winter thunder rolled past dully, and fine snow gradually fell outside the Scripture-Depository Pavilion.

It was clear and quiet in the bookstore. Lu Zhi suddenly groped to sit beside Su Jiu, gently took her hands, and said in a cute and docile voice, "It's cold at night, I'll warm my sister's hands."

Su Jiu was reading seriously, he was startled, and quickly withdrew his hand.

She frowned, looking at the young king in disbelief.

He looked to be only about 20 years old, maybe [-] or [-] if you ignore his pretentiousness.

It is said that the ghost prison is a place that can eat people, but why does the king here have such a gentle temperament?

Holding her vigilance, she said softly: "There is a difference between honor and inferiority, the king respects himself."

Lu Zhi laughed out loud.

After he finished laughing, he was silent for a moment, and said: "Well, there is a difference between superiority and inferiority, I will respect myself."

With him next to him, Su Jiu couldn't read the book anymore, and asked tentatively, "Are you so gentle with everyone?"

She remembered that at the Shanshen Temple that night, he treated Xiao Tingchen very humbly and politely.

Why do people who abide by etiquette invade other people's countries?

He even indulged his subordinates and killed so many innocent soldiers and civilians...

"I only treat those who are worthy to be gentle." Lu Zhi said with a smile, "Meeting my sister tonight is a fate, I don't know where my sister studied under her, and how did she come to serve Concubine Shanxiang?"

Su Jiu said frankly: "I am the closed disciple of Lu Miracle Doctor in Tianlan Mountain. This time I went down the mountain not only to help the empress, but also to—"

She stopped suddenly, and swallowed the words "healing the king's illness" into her stomach.

The ghost prison palace is full of dangers, and she must keep a hole card to save her life.

Quietly touched the elixir hidden in the wide sleeve, this is her life-saving trump card, once her or Xie Rongjing's identity is revealed, she can use the excuse of treating Lu Zhi to save their lives, because she is the only one who can save their lives Lu Zhi.

"What else is it for?" Lu Zhi was curious. He didn't have a close relationship with that uncle, and he didn't know that his uncle had a closed-door female disciple, but since Fei Shanxiang brought her down the mountain in person, he probably wouldn't cheat.

"To take a look at the splendor and prosperity of the royal palace." Su Jiu lied in a low voice, "The folk girl was born in the countryside, and she has never seen such a beautiful palace before."

Lu Zhi became interested, "Then do you want to see the rare treasures in my collection?"

Su Jiu raised his eyebrows. Could it be that a rare treasure worthy of a ghost prison king's collection is a secret like a map of mountains and rivers?

She obliged with great interest.

When I came to the palace where Lu Zhi lived, except for Chang Sheng who was squatting under the eaves and dozing with his face in his hands, there was not a single servant in the huge place.

The golden carved chandelier illuminated the palace brilliantly. She followed Lu Zhi through the beaded curtains and stepped into his bedroom.

Lu Zhi fumbled to press a mechanism on the wall, and the Bogu rack against the wall immediately moved slowly to the side. Su Jiu looked intently, and a secret room appeared in his vision.

There are many night pearls embedded in the secret room, and all kinds of rare treasures are piled up into mountains. The golden orbs reflect the emerald green light of the pearls, which almost dazzles her eyes.

She stepped in in surprise, picked up a phoenix crown and looked at it, "Are these all in your collection? This phoenix crown was a gift from the founding emperor of Daqi to the queen as a token of love. The craftsmanship of emerald jade is at its peak... and this white jade The glazed cup is said to be used by the most beautiful empress of Xichan, and there are red marks on it!"

After scanning the other treasures, they were all the treasures that had long been famous in the Central Plains but had been missing for a long time. Unexpectedly, Lu Zhi collected all of them into the ghost prison one by one.

Lu Zhi's expression froze slightly, "Do you know the goods?"

When laymen look at these treasures, they only know that they are extremely valuable, but few people can tell the history.

Su Jiu knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and remedied it: "The days of seeking medical treatment in Tianlan Mountain were very boring. I saw that there were classics about antique artifacts in Doctor Lu's study, so I looked through them."

"So that's how it is..." Lu Zhi curled his lips, took Su Jiu's sleeve, and led her through piles of rare treasures to the end of the secret room, "Look at this."

On the wooden shelf, there was a red lotus carved with gemstones, which was as big as a washbasin. The gemstones were crystal clear, and the carving was lifelike. Its price was even less than enough to describe its preciousness and rarity.

The most peculiar thing is that the red lotus has dozens of petals, most of which are blood red, only a young petal near the stamen is snow white, and the other petal is red and white.

Su Jiu blinked, "What is this?"

"Fire lotus." Lu Zhi replied as a matter of course, "It is a treasure brought by our ancestors hundreds of years ago when they were exiled to ghost prisons. It is said that this jeweled lotus symbolizes the life of our Lu family. The day when the blood of the family completely disappeared. Changsheng said, there are only two petals left that have not been dyed blood red, and I have to lead the ghost prison to pacify the world before they all turn red, this is the destiny of our Lu family."

Su Jiu just found it ridiculous, "How could the fate of the family be controlled by a mere jewel fire lotus? There is no such thing in the world, even in folk tales, it is impossible for such absurd stories to appear."

Lu Zhi was noncommittal.

Su Jiu approached the ruby ​​red lotus, the texture of the red lotus petals was reflected in the pitch-black deer eyes, like red blood poured into the crystal clear glass, flowing quietly one by one, as if alive.

She couldn't help frowning, and raised her hand to cover the gemstone petals. The touch was cold and cold, as if there was a little evil, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

It's just like……

This ruby ​​red lotus is a cursed thing.

This thought flashed through her mind, and a chill ran up the girl's spine. She quickly withdrew her hand, and wiped the hem of her clothes as if frightened.

"king?"

She turned to Lu Zhi, and the boy who was standing next to the treasure just now disappeared, and the door of the secret room had already been closed.

In the huge and cold secret room, she seemed to be the only one left.

Su Jiu's heart suddenly skipped two beats, she didn't have time to think about whether Lu Zhi had discovered her identity, she hurriedly lifted her skirt and ran to the door, raised her white and tender fist and slammed on the door, "King? King?! "
