After turning over and jumping off the coffin, Asher Blake searched around the memorial hall before pulling out a mirror in the corner. A brass mirror with an old elm base and a surface covered with white paper is placed upside down on the table. These were the burial objects, piled together with a bunch of messy knick-knacks.
He opened the white paper in twos and twos, and a pale little face was reflected in the mirror.
"Ouch!" Asher Blake was startled. Why did a ghost appear before he even drew the talisman? If you look closely, it seems to be your own face.
I haven’t seen my childhood face for more than ten years, and it felt a little unfamiliar for a while. He hadn't eaten dinner and was wearing thin clothes. In this drafty worship hall, his face turned pale.
Touching his nose awkwardly, Asher Blake was amused by himself. The child in the mirror has a pair of deeper eyes than ordinary children. As Asher Blake smiles, he can vaguely see what he will look like in the future.
"It's a pity that unlike the Lin family's peach blossom eyes, he looks like a wolf cub." Asher Blake imitated the tone that the Lin family's head used to say about him. He sighed with a hint of truth, bit his finger, and quickly drew a talisman on the back of the bronze mirror.
With the last stroke, the bronze mirror suddenly shines brightly, and after a moment, it changes from a sun mirror to a negative mirror. A sun mirror is a mirror used in daily life. When reading characters in the mirror, the left and right are reversed, which is called a mirror image. A Yin mirror is a magic weapon. When reading characters in the mirror, the characters are upright, as if reality has been completely moved into the mirror. , and then look through the mirror.
Now this old elm bronze mirror shows the word "sacrifice" in the middle of the mourning hall, which is the correct word.
Taking a piece of sacrificial fruit to eat, Asher Blake walked around the mourning hall with a mirror. The dark mirror did not reflect living people, but reflected souls. After a while, he saw a young girl with delicate features, who looked like Dongmei next to Young Master Zhao.
After a person dies, if no special method is used to preserve it, the soul can only stay in the human world for seven days. In other words, Dongmei died within seven days. It was probably because the young master died suddenly and his wife was angry. Mortals have a low life, and they will be killed as soon as they are told.
Asher Blake sighed, finished the fruit in a few seconds, grabbed a handful of paper money and burned it to Dongmei.
Walking further, I saw Damon Cross again, looking confused. Clicking his tongue, Asher Blake felt a bit regretful. Damon Cross had good qualifications, so it would be good to use it as a spiritual weapon. Unfortunately, there is no weapon worth refining now.
After walking around the mourning hall, I saw several acquaintances, but I didn't see Young Master Zhao.
"Is it possible that he just lost his soul?" Throwing away the mirror, Asher Blake climbed back onto the coffin and covered Young Master Zhao with yellow paper. This state was exactly the same as when he crushed his soul, but the method of crushing his soul was only figured out when he was seventeen years old. Who would crush his soul at this time?
Could it be that some soul-eating ancient spirit has appeared?
He raised his hand to scratch his head, then remembered that he had poked Young Master Zhao in the face, so he gave up. He lowered his head and groped in the coffin for a while, and pulled out a yellow jade pendant from Young Master Zhao's waist.
This was something that Young Master Zhao took away from him when he first came to the Zhao family. The cool and delicate topaz was carved into the shape of a fairy deer looking back. It was the only thought his father gave him when he was leaving.
He tore off the gaudy silk ribbon on it, found a basin of water to wash it off, then removed a thin hemp rope and tied the jade pendant around his neck. After my father passed away, I haven't paid him any tribute, so I tied it with a hemp rope to express my feelings.
"Xin'er, you and Zhao Jian are leaving first. Dad will go find you in a few days." The man with a resolute face thrust the jade pendant into his youngest son's hands. His peach blossom eyes that should have been sentimental were filled with sadness.
"Dad, I won't leave, wuwuwu..."
"Master, let's go to Zhao's house in Weishui first. That's my brother's territory. Let's rest for a while before leaving."
"Uncle Zhao, open your eyes, wuwuwu..."
I don't know if it was due to physical reasons, but the already vague memories from childhood came back clearly. When Asher Blake was woken up, he couldn't tell how old he was.
"Don't sleep, kneel down quickly, the Shen family is coming!" At dawn, the steward led a group of servants in mourning clothes and filed in to clean and decorate the mourning hall.
"Didn't you know it yesterday?" Asher Blake rubbed his eyes and got up mumbling.
"I didn't know yesterday that the Crown Prince would come in person!" The steward's face showed an expression of excitement and sadness, which was so complicated that it wrinkled into a ball.
"The Crown Prince?" This title, like a tiny thunderbolt, froze Asher Blake in place, "Is he the Crown Prince of Huan Xinghai?"
"Who else could it be?" The steward put his hands on his hips, as if he would be chosen by the prince to rise to great heights in the next moment, and talked about this prince in detail, "The eldest son of Duke Xuan Guo, an unparalleled genius. Sickly..."
Sickly? Hearing this word that should have nothing to do with Levi Stone, Asher Blake was a little unsure again. He knew very well how good that man's body was. It was said that he was as strong as a calf since he was a child and could carry a cauldron. Could it be that the prince is not Levi Stone, then where is Levi Stone?
Levi Stone is on the speeding carriage.
The retainer Landon Chase rode in front, facing the wind and swallowing the snow with a grimace, "Sir, the Zhao family said they would postpone the burial, so we don't need to travel under the stars and at night."
The young man's calm and unmistakable voice came from the carriage, which was embedded with sixteen pieces of deer glass and was moving as if it were walking on flat ground, "Continue, move quickly."
After being frustrated, Landon Chase clamped the horse's belly and whispered to the expressionless prince's guard beside him, "Brother Huang, why do you think the prince is in such a hurry? Then the eldest young master of the Zhao family can't run away." "Although he is also an immortal, he is a civil servant in Huan Xinghai and has not been so busy for a long time. I thought it was a simple errand, but I didn't expect that it would become a chore once the prince interfered.
The guard in dark attire was the guard Ezra Black who was delivering the medicine that day. Hearing this, he said without looking back: "Sir, I don't know something. The prince has been asking us to pay attention to the person who seems to be in a state of distraught. After searching for this for a long time, we finally found him." How can we not be anxious after hearing the news?"
Mr. Rao Shidong was well-informed and couldn't figure out what the prince's purpose was in looking for that soulless person. He could only pull up his windproof mask, whip the horse's butt, and rush there as early as possible to avoid the cold.
Levi Stone was sitting in the warm carriage, holding a silver carved hand stove and gently rubbing the carved deer on the stove cover. I thought everything had already started, but I didn't expect that I had been reborn two years earlier, and the consequences of my soul being scattered were only revealed today. Will Asher Blake be in the Weishui River when he was young? I hope this Zhao family will not let me down.
Nolan Reed and his wife, who looked sick, went to the door to greet him in person. Seeing the silver-trimmed canopy carriage from a distance, he bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, Zhao Ding, welcomes His Highness the Crown Prince!"
One moment it was just a shot away, and in the blink of an eye it was right before our eyes.
The carriage stopped, and the guard dismounted and opened the door curtain. A young man in black, wide-sleeved attire came out. The maid next to him immediately stepped forward and put a fox fur cloak on him. The young man was born extremely handsome, with slender shoulders and clear skin. His posture was like a star in the sky, his posture was like a dragon or a phoenix, and his face was as calm as a pine tree in the wind. You will never forget what you see, and you will feel fear if you look at it for a long time.
Nolan Reed had seen the prince when he was paying tribute to the emperor the year before. Although Levi Stone was also arrogant and proud at that time, he was very different from the young man in front of him who made people dare not look directly at him. He didn't know what kind of magical skills the prince had practiced in the past two years, and his aura was even more terrifying than his father's.
Levi Stone kept walking, raised his hand slightly to signal everyone to excuse themselves, and then went straight to the mourning hall.
The servants who had no time to tidy up quickly retreated, leaving only two immortal cultivators and the "filial son" Asher Blake kneeling on the futon. When Levi Stone entered the mourning hall, he saw the little child in plain clothes at a glance. When he saw those unmistakable dark blue eyes, his heart that had been jolted along the way suddenly returned to its true state.
"Your Majesty, this is my miserable eldest son. You have to make the decision for us." Evelina Reed was supported by the maid and walked over, covering her mouth with a handkerchief and crying.
Asher Blake didn't even notice that the prince glanced at him once more. He didn't hold back at all. When the man turned away, he traced him with his eyes almost greedily. Shen Qingque was really good-looking when he was a child, with a certain thinness unique to young people, like a tender lotus root washed by the stream on a sunny day, tempting people to take a bite.
Levi Stone offered a pillar of fragrance to Young Master Zhao. Because of his status, he did not have to kneel down, but as a filial son and grandson, Asher Blake had to return the favor. The little child raised his short arms and saluted solemnly, which was really cute.
Even a ferocious wolf was still a hairy puppy when he was young, not to mention Asher Blake was born good-looking...
"The young master has a rhinoceros head, jade cheeks, and crane bones. He has an extraordinary appearance and will become a great person in the future." Landon Chase stroked his beard at the corners of his mouth and praised, "Is this the second son of the family?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the mourning hall. Evelina Reed's face looked a little ugly, but Nolan Reed's expression did not change, "I made you laugh, this is my younger brother's son." He didn't even mention Asher Blake's name. , and asked your Lordships to examine the body.
"Landon Chase, go and see." Prince Shen, who had traveled 800 meters at night, was no longer interested in Young Master Zhao and motioned to Mr. Dong to open the coffin.
... Landon Chase watched dumbfoundedly as the prince casually called the child to his side, as if it had nothing to do with him, and he suddenly felt the urge to recite poetry.
Traveling through snow-capped mountains and across ice fields, what is it like for the prince to travel day and night?
Reciting poetry will inevitably open the coffin, and storytelling will not save Landon Chase! Accepting his fate, Mr. Dong could only bite the bullet and go to meet with Young Master Zhao.
Asher Blake had been paying attention to Levi Stone's movements. When he saw him waving to him, he immediately ran over and gave up his position to the person who opened the coffin and performed the autopsy.
"What's your name?" Levi Stone looked down at him. Now he was just a young boy, only a head taller than Asher Blake.
"Xin, my name is A Xin." Asher Blake seemed a little shy, lowered his head and wring his fingers, and when Levi Stone wasn't paying attention, he quietly touched the back of his hand hanging by his side.
