Chapter 35 The Deadly Flame

Chapter 36 Deadly Flames
"There are no ghosts. I have to start with the former king. At that time, the former king was ranked second among the princes. The eldest prince had an incomparable advantage in the court. It was difficult for the former king to succeed the elder brother. The old emperor When the eldest prince was about to be passed on, the Northland suddenly raised troops to attack the Daqing Kingdom, and captured more than 30 of our cities in a row. The Daqing Kingdom could not stop the enemy's attack.

The old emperor turned gray after a few days of worry, and summoned the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and all the princes, no matter who among the princes can repel the army of the Northland, the throne will be passed on to whomever.King Gan went out first, he said; no matter which prince went out, he was willing to follow him.However, none of the six princes above the age of 15 dared to speak out. The old emperor beat his chest angrily and cursed the princes as trash.

At this time, King Gan winked at the former king, meaning to let him stand out. After a long time, the former king could only bite the bullet and accept this bad job.The former king and him led 6 people to crusade against the invading army in the North. Once they led 5 guards to explore the battlefield, and entered the Foxtail Valley by mistake. They led all [-] people to rescue them.

Foxtail Valley is like a dead end, only one or two miles wide. The 5 men and the 4000 inside were separated by 5 northern cavalry. While blocking the attack of the 5 men, the enemy general forced the besieged kings in the Foxtail Valley to surrender with a powerful momentum, and warned the [-] besieged outside. People; if you attack outside, we will kill your besieged princes. Whether you enter or not, it is up to you? "

The two sides had been stalemate for two whole days, and the wolf lord in the north kept sending people to persuade them to surrender. After a fierce battle, there were still more than 2000 guards in the Foxtail Valley, and there was no food for the people and no food for the horses. Even the former king was a little shaken.King Gan urged the former king to persevere, and God will not watch the Daqing Kingdom perish.

At the dawn of the third day, thunder suddenly rolled in the sky, and a big fireball fell from the sky, hitting the cliff on the right side of the officers and soldiers of the Northland. Beidi officers and soldiers killed and injured more than 5 people on the spot.King Xian and King Gan saw the right moment and rushed out from the Foxtail Valley with their guards. The [-] people outside heard the sound of killing and fought bravely.

The late king was victorious and returned to court. The old emperor and all the ministers said that God favored the late king, and he was destined to be the emperor.Therefore, if no one raised any objections to the succession of the former king in the court, the former king would succeed to the throne logically.

On the day when the first king came to the throne, he granted the titles of all levels of soldiers who went out with the army, gave General Gan an exception to the prince, and built a palace. This is the palace of King Gan where we are.

"King Gan is a great general. It stands to reason that his physique is very good. Why did King Gan die of illness within two years? Could it be that he was injured in the war?"

"No, I haven't heard that King Gan was injured. I was the first batch of slaves recruited by King Gan when he entered the palace. I was a gardener at the time. When I met King Gan for the first time, he was tall and burly. , Martial arts are also extremely strong... However, after one summer passed, he fell ill, and the next year passed away after another summer."

"That's strange. I fell ill in one summer. Could it be that I was poisoned by chronic poison?" Liu Tao couldn't figure it out either.

"Who knows, it's not just him. At that time, he had one wife and five concubines. After his death, except one concubine lived for another six years, and the rest died within two or three years. How many For example, King Gan's parents, the chief steward of the mansion, and King Gan's servant girl all died of strange illnesses in the first year..."

They talked while walking, and when they reached a rock cave behind a rockery, Jin Yang asked, "Uncle Zhao, does King Gan have any special hobbies?"

Some people's quirks are not good for people, and they can also affect people's physical and mental health. Jin Yang guessed that this King Gan might have some bad habits. As for other people, could it be that King Chu is so thin-waisted, and he also followed his lead? hobby.

"King Gan is very upright and likes to be sociable. He basically has no enemies. The previous kings valued him very much. He never lacked in money. He didn't particularly like women. His two concubines were bestowed by the previous king. I don’t like drinking very much, and I’m not picky about what I eat, only…”

He paused, pointed to a black stone on the sculpture of the lamp holder 20 meters away, and said, "Only that stone is his favorite!"

The two looked at the person along his fingers. The lamp base was carved from a whole block of white marble, as thick as a normal water tank, with a round base underneath, and an oval black stone inside the lamp bowl at the top. It weighs more than one meter in diameter and weighs as much as a thousand catties, like a crooked black fairy peach.It is an ever-burning lamp that is likened to burning flames, and the black stone represents the flames.
"This black stone was transported back from the Foxtail Valley by King Gan. It is part of the fireball that fell that day. It is also called a meteorite. It was transported back by King Gan to worship him in gratitude for God's great love. Every New Year's Day Or on the first and fifteenth day of each month, he would burn incense and kneel down. When the summer heat was unbearable, King Gan would take a nap in this cave. This cave is next to the lake, and it is cool in summer. He Binu is also happy to serve him here..."

Hearing this, Jin Yang went to the edge of the lamp holder and stood on tiptoe to look at it carefully. The top of the meteorite was a roughly arc-circle surface, with melt flow lines and clear air marks, and the thickness could be seen from the section. Different fusion crust, it has all the characteristics of meteorites.He looked at it, and seemed to have a new guess: "Is there anything special about this meteorite?"

"Yes, at night, it emits a bright green light, but it's a good baby!"

"Hahahaha, I don't think so?" Suddenly he remembered something, pulled Liu Tao and shouted at Old Zhao, and hurried away from here.It wasn't until they came to the back door when they came into the courtyard that they looked back and said with lingering fear: "There are some things that cannot be said now, we must stay away from there!"

Liu Tao also seemed to understand something: "Uncle Zhao, isn't King Gan's concubine very popular, isn't he often with King Gan, and later, before he died, he also lived in a place far away from the meteorite? "

"Girl, you guessed it right. That little concubine was given to the late king by the wolf master of the Northland as a gift. The late king gave her as a gift to King Gan. Because she missed her family and relatives all day long, she always had a sad face and didn't smile. So, he was not favored all the time, and later died of illness in that back room." Old Zhao said, pointing to the house not far away.

Old Zhao didn't know what was going on, but the two of them knew that the meteorite came from space and carried a huge amount of radioactive radiation energy. Its radiation was fatal to both humans and animals.Sculpture it into a flame, and that is a deadly flame.

It’s not a big deal if the short-range radiation time is short. If you are often radiated by the internal rays of meteorites, you will suffer from terminal illnesses such as leukemia and bone cancer, and you will be helpless even if you Hua Tuo is reborn.
