Chapter 182 The Secret of the Blood Witch
This also led to the fact that Emperor Sheng's concubines would rather eat worse than compete for favor, so as not to bring harm to their mother's family.
However, Xu Qiuyue was not interested in Emperor Sheng's harem.
At this moment, Xu Qiuyue still wanted to know what was happening the most, and if she wanted to know the news, she had to let Bai Xiaosheng speak voluntarily.
Xu Qiuyue looked at Bai Xiaosheng with sharp eyes and said to him, "It seems that the famous Bai Xiaosheng is just like this. My gold is not so easy to earn. I think the Immortal Fountain is not with that peasant girl. I don't want this kind of rumor known to everyone. I want the real news."
A corner of the wooden table was crushed into powder by Xu Qiuyue.
The wooden table originally had square corners, but now it has rounded corners.
Bai Xiaosheng's pupils shrank, and he was secretly shocked at Xu Qiuyue's strength.
The news he told Xu Qiuyue was indeed widespread news.
He looked greedily at the gold in his hand. It had been a long time since he met such a generous customer.
"Sir, your gold ingot is too small to know the real whereabouts of the Immortal Spring, but I can tell you some more information and let you make your own judgment."
Bai Xiaosheng knew that Xu Qiuyue might be a thug for some big shot, so he knew so much secret information.
Many big shots ask their subordinates to look up information, and the time given is very short, and the results must be found within one day.
What else could they do? They could only come to Bai Xiaosheng to gather information.
Unfortunately, there are many Bai Xiaoshengs, and they are all called Bai Xiaosheng.
Not all know-it-alls have particularly good business.
Not all of this information will necessarily come to him.
But he knew as much as those know-it-alls, and all the information among the know-it-alls was shared with each other.
There are many people who want the Fountain of Immortality, and he wants it too.
But the Fountain of Immortality is just a legend.
There are not many people who have actually met him.
He knew that Xu Qiuyue might be the confidant of a new noble and had no fixed source of information, so she came to him.
The information Xu Qiuyue wants is not necessarily the Immortal Fountain, but Xu Qiuyue needs information that can fool her master.
Bai Xiaosheng continued to say to Xu Qiuyue: "There is no need for us to talk about what happened eighteen years ago. If we continue to talk about it, we won't get to a conclusion.
After all, in order to track down the whereabouts of the Immortal Fountain, the imperial court sent a large army to the deep mountains and forests to destroy the Rakshasa Sect, which was associated with the Blood Witch.
If there really were clues, the imperial court would have found the Fountain of Immortality long ago.
The appearance of the Blood Witch's remains today originated from a year ago when a farm girl named Xu Chunhua came to the capital and vowed that she knew the true place where the Blood Witch died.
Unfortunately, no one believed it at the time.
According to the intensive investigation by the imperial court, the Blood Witch had been to Taohua Town.
The skills that the Blood Witch practices do not allow her to get pregnant. If she does, her strength will definitely drop significantly.
As for King Ning'an, how could he defeat the Blood Witch if she was at her peak?
Sir, you must not know that when Prince Ning'an was in the palace, he was beaten like a dog by the Blood Witch.
Prince Ning'an has been trying to be strong all his life. He would rather be questioned by Emperor Sheng for not trying his best than admit that he really cannot defeat the Blood Witch.
The time he defeated the Blood Witch was when she was ten months pregnant and her belly was already bulging. He felt that this incident would affect his reputation, so he had people hide the fact that the Blood Witch was pregnant and only had people publicize that he defeated the Blood Witch.
At that time, the Blood Witch's strength had greatly decreased, and she was pregnant and about to give birth.
But even so, he let the Blood Witch escape, which shows how powerful the Blood Witch is."
"Aren't you still talking about what happened eighteen years ago?"
Xu Qiuyue complained to Bai Xiaosheng.
The fact that the Blood Witch was pregnant had always been just speculation among the public.
However, there have been rumors and records about the Blood Witch's bulging belly.
Emperor Sheng and King Ning'an actually had a very good relationship. The time when they fell out was right after the death of the Blood Witch.
Xu Qiuyue actually knew part of the story, but she didn't tell Bai Xiaosheng. She was also very clear that the Blood Witch was dead.
Sure enough, Bai Xiaosheng's next sentence revealed what Xu Qiuyue knew.
"Sir, don't be impatient.
I just want to tell you that the Blood Witch is really dead.
Immortality is too tempting for Emperor Sheng.
How could the imperial court let the Blood Witch go? The imperial court finally intercepted the Blood Witch in Meihua County.
At this time, the Blood Witch had just given birth and was at her weakest.
She knew she was invincible, so she left the last words of her life: Sikong Xuanmiao can be killed but not humiliated.
So she committed suicide in Meihua County. Her body was transported back to the capital. Emperor Sheng personally examined it and even had people grind the Blood Witch into pieces, but found nothing. When she died, there was only a blood-stained dress and her sword on her body. Everything else was gone.
However, many coroners had examined the Blood Witch's body back then, and they were all absolutely certain that the Blood Witch had given birth.
At that time, countless baby boys and girls died in Meihua County.
Therefore, it is very likely that the peasant girl is the descendant of the Blood Witch.
What's more, people from the imperial court and the Xuannv Sect had secretly interrogated the Xu family.
They were all certain that the Xu family had only one daughter, and the other was entrusted to them by a woman in red. Over the years, she had always used the excuse that the two daughters were twins, so no one doubted it.
According to legend, the fountain of immortality is so small that you can carry it with you.
You know, when the Blood Witch was banished to the Red Mansion, she had nothing on her.
If she didn't carry the Fountain of Immortality with her, she would definitely not be able to heal her body, nor would she be able to make further progress based on restoring her internal strength.
However, I have a different opinion about this so-called Immortal Fountain. That is, this Immortal Fountain is actually a mental method that requires blood sacrifice.
Otherwise, why was the Blood Witch nicknamed the Blood Witch? When she restored her cultivation, she performed a blood sacrifice on the entire Red Mansion. All the people in the Red Mansion, including the guests, were drained of blood by the Blood Witch, and the corpses were burned to ashes by the Blood Witch.
The Red Mansion was burned down along with it.
I have checked a lot of information. Every time the Blood Witch kills someone, if she has enough time, she will drain the victim's blood.
In addition, many nobles have drunk the Immortal Fountain of the Blood Witch. The Immortal Fountain is blood red and has a bloody smell, but after taking it, it can indeed turn white hair black and return one's appearance to that of youth.
Sir, this news of mine is worth your gold."
