34. Gravekeeper

"Gravekeeper?"

"Yes." Jiang Xiaoling sat on the sofa and bandaged the wound on his wrist. "Gravekeeper, my mission is to protect the blood clan, to be precise, to protect Ying Sitong."

"Mom, why didn't you say it earlier?" Xia Yuan patted his chest and looked at Jiang Xiaoling with a complaint. "My heart jumped out just now."

Jiang Xiaoling glanced at him and said lightly, "I really don't know your relationship with the lady. I really wanted to protect you at that time and search for the lady's whereabouts through you."

Next, Jiang Xiaoling tells the history of the blood clan’s tombkeepers—

A long time ago, when heroes were competing for the warlords, and war filled the entire continent of China.

The survival of the blood clan was greatly threatened. In addition to the war, it was also hunted by demon hunters.

In order to protect Ying Sitong and to make her survive the war, her parents had no choice but to adopt a secret method of the blood clan-

She was fed a fake death medicine and put it into the underground stone coffin in a special way.

A simple explanation is to make a tomb for Ying Sitong.

After taking the fake death medicine secretly inherited by the blood clan, the body will fall into an endless sleep, and the energy consumed is very weak, so it can live very, very long.

And because there is no metabolism, the body will also stop developing.

To be precise, it is not much different from dead people.

At the same time, in order to prevent others from robbing the tombs, Ying Sitong's parents also set up gravekeepers inside.

They selected a few dead soldiers and fed them fake death medicine, which were also placed in a sarcophagus, and buried in several passages around the main tomb chamber.

Because of the fake death medicine, they can also enter a state of almost no consumption-free fake death like Ying Sitong.

Once a tomb robber enters, it will touch the mechanism and awaken the gravekeeper.

The tomb guards are all skilled in martial arts and killing people like a numb.

After removing the tomb robbers, the tomb guard will continue to take the fake death medicine in the tomb chamber and go to sleep.

If nothing unusual happens, they will keep sleeping.

Hundreds of years.

Thousands of years.

Until all the energy in your body is consumed.

Or maybe the moment when you are truly awakened-

Before Ying Sitong's parents let Jiang Xiaoling enter the tomb, they promised that as long as the world becomes better, if they can escape from disasters and survive, they will wake them up.

As it turns out, this beautiful wish has not been realized.

Ying Sitong's parents and family members are likely to die in that chaotic era.

The cemetery of the blood clan was not discovered, and this sleep lasted for thousands of years.

Until the earthquake occurred, violent underground movements drove the sarcophagus out of the ground.

The entire tomb collapsed, and Ying Sitong walked out of it.

The sarcophagus of the main tomb chamber was opened, and several other sarcophagus of the tomb guards were also opened.

Unfortunately, except for Jiang Xiaoling, several other tomb guards were buried in the earthquake.

It has to be said that before the great power of nature, no matter how powerful a creature is, it is vulnerable.

Humans are even more pitifully small.

However, when Jiang Xiaoling crawled out from the ground, she did not find Ying Sitong in the main tomb.

All signs indicate that Ying Sitong left first.

So, Jiang Xiaoling, who had a strong sense of mission, packed her bags and embarked on the journey to find Ying Sitong.

This has been searching for 13 years.

Until Yunze Film and Television City, she smelled the familiar and unusual aura on Xia Yuan.

...

Xia Yuan listened silently.

Some things have been explained now.

But some problems have not been solved yet.

"So you are a big family!" Xia Yuan looked at Ying Sitong and sighed.

"That's more?" Ying Sitong raised her arrogant chin, "The lady of a wealthy family is still being squeezed by you now. Do you think you are doing personnel?"

Xia Yuan ignored her and turned his eyes to Jiang Xiaoling.

The other party raised his head and responded to his gaze.

"Do you have this formula for the fake death medicine?"

Mom.

Xia Yuan’s biggest gain after listening is—

That medicine is your master's treasure, right?

It's priceless to sell it.

Jiang Xiaoling thought for a moment, shook her head sadly, "We servants don't know the secret recipe of the blood clan, and the tomb was destroyed by an earthquake, and the remaining fake death medicines inside were gone."

"Do you know?" Xia Yuan turned his head and looked at Ying Sitong, "Forget it, it's useless to ask."

He immediately dismissed the question.

"Xia Yuan, you look down on others too much, are you? After all, I am also an orthodox savage."

"Do you know?"

"I..." Ying Sitong stammered for a long time, and his voice gradually lowered, "The blood clan rules were not written."

Sure enough, Ying Sitong never let him down when answering the matter of disappointing Xia Yuan.

"Wait, the holy cabinet." Xia Yuan clapped his hands and looked at Jiang Xiaoling as if he had caught a life-saving straw. "Maybe the recipe for this fake death medicine is hidden in the holy cabinet of the blood clan. Do you know how to open it?"

Jiang Xiaoling shook her head silently, "The holy cabinet is a sacred object of the blood clan, and it is impossible for us servants like us to know."

Forehead……

"What do you know?"

"I know that when the lady grows up and becomes an adult, if she encounters a human with a special blood species and is in a sleepy state, she may fall into a bloodthirsty and violent state."

Jiang Xiaoling sat upright, maintaining the etiquette and habits of the past, and nodded slightly to Xia Yuan.

"My master gave me a prescription to suppress the blood clan's madness. Just apply this ointment to your wrist and lure the lady to drink it, and she can return from the real type to the normal form.

This is also why I said before that I can protect you.”

Xia Yuan was slightly stunned and said that he had nothing to say. This is the fact. If Jiang Xiaoling had not arrived in time, he might have been squeezed out.

"Thank you, thank you. You can always give me a recipe?" Xia Yuan said, "After all, I will live with your lady in the future."

Jiang Xiaoling showed displeasure and hesitated for a while before nodding.

She looked at Ying Sitong with some resentment.

"Miss, how could you be so uncautious that you can't even make more choices when you have signed a blood marriage contract with such a man?"

Ying Sitong spread his hands and said, "He was injured too seriously at that time. If I don't do this, he will die. What can I do?"

Xia Yuan frowned fiercely, and blue veins bulged on his forehead.

Maggie...

Why does this sound so harsh?
