Chapter 317
historical
She found that gentle was possessed by another evil soul every evening, like a wild wolf in heat. That was why he brought his sexual partners into the desert, and needed women every night.
Last night, she had escaped a disaster, but gentle had also paid the price of blood (being stabbed) . What about tonight!
Thinking of this, how could she still hold back? It was like a thorn in her back, and she couldn’t sit still for a moment.
“I’m sorry,”gentle apologized again. It could be seen that his expression and mood were extremely depressed. There was also a sense of defeat that could not be reversed. “I didn’t do it on purpose!”
He Yi did not know why, but when she heard what he said, her heart actually softened a little. He did not do it on purpose! She believed that he was telling the truth!
“What’s going on?”He Yi’s tone also softened a lot. She asked in a low voice, “Is there a good way to control the evil soul in your body? Who is he exactly? Why would he attach himself to you?”
Gentle finally raised his head and looked at He Yi with a complicated expression. “That’s not an evil spirit, but.. a poison side effect!”
“What poison side effect?”He Yi was really defeated by his charming and slow personality. “Can you explain it clearly in one go? You’re always brainless. How am I supposed to figure out what’s going on?”
Under he Yi’s persistent questioning, Wen Geng slowly explained the whole situation.
It turned out that after Wen Geng returned to his hometown, he realized that his family was no longer in the world. After crying bitterly, he burned down his dilapidated hometown and returned to the army.
At that time, he followed a famous warlord, commander-in-chief. Because he was smart and brave, he performed meritorious deeds several times in a row and was promoted from a nobody to an adjutant.
Commander-in-chief Wang had always liked the gentle, smart, and handsome. He had brought him along and even rewarded him with a few of his concubines. In short, he treated him very well.
Gentle also followed commander-in-chief Wang wholeheartedly, helping him to come up with strategies and find a place to stand in that chaotic world that was filled with flames of war.
Commander-in-chief Wang’s power was growing, but his body had suffered some gunshot wounds due to years of battles. In addition, he was overly drunk and lacked maintenance, so he could not hold on much longer. One time when he was drinking and having fun with his wife, he actually vomited a mouthful of blood. He couldn’t help but be frightened.
There was a rather famous divine doctor in the area who had very good medical skills. It was said that he could bring back the dead, so Marshal Wang invited him to help Marshal Wang recuperate.
But that Divine Doctor said that Marshal Wang’s body had been emptied by excessive wine and sex. In addition, his old gunshot wound had flared up, so he probably didn’t have long to live. He could only treat the illness but couldn’t save his life.
At that time, Marshal Wang was anxious. He directly pointed the gun at the godly doctor’s skull and said that if he died, he would be buried together with him.
The Godly doctor was terrified. In order to survive, he gave Marshal Wang an idea. It was said that there was a kind of magical ant in the desert. The honey in its stomach could be gathered together and drank together to cure all diseases. It could live forever.
This was originally a ridiculous legend, but Marshal Zhang was desperate because he was afraid of death. He really sent people to the desert to search for the mysterious ant nest, and the commander was his most trusted and most admired adjutant, genial.
Genial brought ten thousand troops and set off, but he knew that this trip was doomed. He brought the Divine Doctor and told him clearly that if he didn’t find the legendary ant nest, he wouldn’t come back, and the Divine Doctor would die with him.
Just like that, the group embarked on the journey to find the elixir of life.
The Miracle Doctor specially introduced an experienced guide to gentle and led them into the desert. Gentle gave them a generous reward and then set off with the group in a mighty manner.
When passing through the ancient Loulan Kingdom, the guide encouraged gentle to pick the flower of life on the sarcophagus of Queen Loulan. It was recorded in the literature as a “Strange flower,”but the locals called it the flower of life.
There were many legends about this flower, but not a single person had actually seen it.
Gentle was somewhat moved! Because he wasn’t even sure if he could find the legendary ant nest, passing through the Loulan ancient kingdom ruins was naturally worth the risk.
Even this Loulan ancient kingdom wasn’t something that just anyone could find. Sometimes one could see it with a glance, but sometimes one couldn’t find it even after circling around it countless times. It was like a ghost fighting against a wall.
Gentle but very lucky. When he arrived at the Loulan ancient kingdom, it happened to be a sunny day. He successfully entered the underground cave. The guide was also very reliable. He actually knew some complicated paths and told them how to resist the bewilderment of the Resurrection Lily, how to identify the forks and how to avoid the traps.
