Chapter 177 Hard-won resurrection
at night.
"Your Majesty, it's time to go to the nine-story tower." The great eunuch whispered.
The emperor hummed.
The palace maid then stepped forward and put a black cloak on the emperor. The eunuch held a lantern and walked all the way to the nine-story tower.
Every year on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, emperors of all dynasties would go to the nine-story pagoda to offer sacrifices.
The nine-story tower was heavily guarded, and the palace maids and eunuchs stopped a few dozen meters away.
The prince carried the food box and yellow paper and sent His Majesty to the foot of the tower.
"Father." The prince was already waiting under the tower.
"My lord, please stop." The guard wore silver armor, and a layer of frost appeared under the moonlight.
The prince lowered his head, handed the food box and yellow paper to the prince, and stepped back step by step.
There are many guards on the nine-story pagoda, both overt and covert. Except for the emperors and princes of the past dynasties, no one can go up to the nine-story pagoda.
"Your Majesty, please come in."
"The time has come, it's time to offer sacrifices," the guard whispered.
There was a squeak.
The nine-story tower opens its door.
Last time the emperor took Lu Chaochao, he took the outer stairs and did not open the door to enter.
The nine-story pagoda only opens once a year.
Only the emperor and the prince were allowed inside.
The emperor held a lamp in his hand and lit the lamps on each floor each time he went up.
The prince followed the emperor quietly, and all he could hear was his low breathing.
"It is rumored that Beizhao was originally a swamp, and no living thing could survive."
"Until that day, the gods showed mercy and a ray of light fell on the land of Beizhao. That was the heart of Beizhao." The emperor looked at the top of the nine-story tower from a distance.
"They took root, countless swamps turned into soil, countless trees and flowers sprouted from the ground. Countless creatures were able to recuperate, and life appeared in Beizhao..."
The emperor whispered.
"These were originally the secrets of the royal family. They were passed down to the new emperor every time he succeeded."
"But you are my favorite son. This emperor's position will only be passed on to you. It doesn't hurt to inform you in advance." The former emperor overthrew the previous dynasty and succeeded him. He didn't know it at first. Later, when he was offering sacrifices in Chengtian Hall, he I accidentally discovered the secret of Beizhao.
"Beizhao was full of vitality at that time, and countless people came here to compete for land and build a country."
"Later, there was a silver-haired man who didn't know how to take out Beizhao's heart. He said that this was the source of Beizhao's vitality, it was Beizhao's heart, and it needed the incense of Beizhao's people."
"The heart of Beizhao needs to be worshiped by the whole country for a thousand years, so I will leave the heart of Beizhao here. Enjoy the incense and worship."
The emperor looked a little surprised.
"However, he also said something..." The emperor shook his head.
"This has been passed down for thousands of years, and perhaps future generations have exaggerated it."
"The silver-haired man said that one day, the other party might come looking for his heart."
"If this person comes, he will be the ancestor of Beizhao. The little ancestor of the entire Beizhao."
The expression on the emperor's face was quite speechless.
"I don't believe it, but someone can actually come and get it..." The emperor waved his hand, just for fun.
The corners of the prince's lips curled up slightly as he watched him push up to the ninth floor.
The emperor personally lit the ninth candle.
The candlelight lit up, dispelling the darkness, and the prince's eyes gradually became gentle.
The prince unconsciously stepped softly, fearing that he would wake up.
He stepped forward and laid out the tributes, and religiously lit the incense, wax paper and money.
The prince poured the wine himself, knelt on the ground and quietly tore up the yellow paper.
I saw a dusty stone floating on the top of the ninth floor tower. The stone was suspended quietly in mid-air, not looking alive at all.
There are fine lines all over the stone, and I don’t know what kind of powerful force it has withstood.
The emperor respectfully offered incense.
"If you really have a spirit, you will bless Beizhao for generations to come, and bless the Xie family's royal family's foundation forever." The emperor whispered.
The prince said calmly: "Yes."
After the sacrifice, it was already late at night when the two of them walked out of the nine-story tower.
The prince turned to look at the dim light on the nine-story tower, his eyes burning.
The palace door has been closed, and the prince will rest in the palace tonight.
He lay on the bed with his hands folded and resting on the back of his head, his thoughts unconsciously emptying out.
Today is the day of her sacrifice.
"After a thousand years, you are finally resurrected..." the prince whispered.
"Disciple Chongyue, we are finally waiting for your resurrection."
The God of Time and Space, no, he is no longer the God of Time and Space.
The little prince sighed quietly.
He and several senior brothers traveled around the three realms, weaving souls for her everywhere. As the God of Time and Space, he threw her into reincarnation again and again, trying to make her reborn, but all his divine power had long been exhausted.
She is the master of the gods, and her three souls and seven souls have long been wiped out.
I have ignored the prohibitions of the Three Realms and the laws countless times and waited for the court in the mortal world.
Heavenly Dao, as a fair existence in the three realms, wiped out his soul countless times.
In this life, if Chao Chao's soul hadn't returned, I'm afraid his soul would still be wiped out and his body would be occupied by the soul of another world.
Fortunately, fortunately, she's back.
Her laughter and curses, her reincarnation, no one knows how difficult it is.
At this moment, Lu Chaochao.
She was shamelessly reaching out and asking Mrs. Xu for a chicken leg: "Mother, can you give Chao Chao a chicken drumstick..."
"Chaochao is so good..."
The little guy's eyebrows drooped slightly, seeming a little disappointed.
"Today is a special day..." Lu Chaochao wrinkled his little face.
[Today is the day I once offered sacrifices. It's my death anniversary! 】
[Isn’t it an exaggeration to say that the death anniversary is a chicken leg? 】
Xu was shocked.
She raised her head and stared blankly at Chao Chao.
Chao Chao rarely mentioned her past, and rarely revealed her true feelings.
At this moment, Xu was heartbroken to hear that she had offered sacrifices.
"You are still hoarding food. You have only been eating for one day today." Mrs. Xu sighed silently.
"Besides, you are overweight. The imperial doctor said that you should control your appetite and eat less greasy and meaty food..." Mrs. Xu gently pinched her chubby little face, which looked so round and cute.
"That's all, I'll let Dengzhi get you a chicken drumstick later." Mrs. Xu pitied her words for the anniversary of her death, but couldn't hold it back after all.
"Oh yes...thank you, mother." The little guy's drooping eyebrows suddenly brightened up.
[It’s great that others can only celebrate birthdays, but I can also celebrate my death anniversary! Hehe, one more festival than others...] The little guy's eyebrows were dancing, and he looked like he was making a lot of money.
Xu...
Why is your brain circuit always so weird?
"Mother, Chaochao didn't eat any meat today, so he's starving and thin." Lu Chaochao sucked in his stomach and tried to show his respect.
"I haven't eaten a bite of meat..."
"If you don't believe me, why don't you ask Yushu? My belly is already small..." Lu Chaochao looked proud.
Yushu looked embarrassed: "It's true... I really didn't eat meat."
"Sister Dengzhi, are you going to get the scale? Chaochao must have lost weight..." Looking at Dengzhi, he asked Dengzhi to get the scale.
The little one was sitting in a bamboo basket, and two little maids were lifting her up and down.
Dengzhi looked at him with surprise and uncertainty on his face.
"What a hearty weight loss..." The little guy learned a word and immediately said with emotion.
"Enjoyed??" Dengzhi muttered.
"Yes, I didn't eat a bite of meat." Lu Chaochao looked proud.
Dengzhi looked at the scale and doubted his life.
Three pounds heavier than yesterday? ! !
"What did you eat today?" Dengzhi asked cautiously.
"I ate eight sugar rolls, two vegetarian steamed buns, two bowls of porridge... I didn't eat meat, so I must be thin..." The little guy counted her weight-loss meals on his fingers.
Xu took a breath and covered her heart.
What a hearty experience!
She secretly chases the dog food again! ! (End of chapter)
