C929 Xuanyuan Poison Scripture
Without giving Du Qi a chance to speak, Xuanyuan Lanqin immediately asked Hsu Qiuchan, "Chan'er, you are deeply in love with Young Master Du. Are you willing to make any sacrifices for him?"
Hsu Qiuchan said without thinking, "As long as I can protect young master's life, I am willing to make any sacrifices!"
Xuanyuan Lanqin said, "I want the two of you to get married immediately. Are you willing?"
Hsu Qiuchan was silent but Du Qi said, "Being able to marry Qiuchan is my wish and also my Du Qi's fortune. It is just that the time and the land are not suitable. Why does senior have such a suggestion?"
Xuanyuan Lanqin said, "We have no choice but to sacrifice Young Master Du in order to live. I feel deeply humble in my heart. So I hope that after you get married, Qiuchan can leave a man and a woman behind. It will be good to continue your Du Family's incense offerings and also strengthen Qiuchan's will to do things for you, Young Master Du. I will let you feel at ease. I don't think Young Master Du will reject my good intentions, right? "
Hearing Xuanyuan Lanqin's words, Du Qi could not help but secretly sigh. This woman was really more vicious than a snake. She was even more cunning than a wolf. Not only did she want him to die willingly, but she also wanted him to die. Imagine if he really handed the things he wanted to do to Hsu Qiuchan. Then the power he controlled would also be given to Hsu Qiuchan. Xuanyuan Lanqin could easily control those powers. At that time, how could he let Hsu Qiuchan fulfill his wish?
Du Qi did not point out Xuanyuan Lanqin's intention but rejected Xuanyuan Lanqin's suggestion and said, "Who will live and who will not die? How can you care about your funeral? Du Qi can only accept senior's good intentions!"
Hearing Du Qi's words, Hsu Qiuchan's heart suddenly sank. She could not help but laugh miserably. "Think about it. What kind of person is young master? How can he take a fancy to a thin willow like me?"
Xuanyuan Lanqin also said in surprise, "Could it be that you really don't look up to my family's Chan'er?"
Du Qi said, "Qiuchan don't need to be angry. My feelings towards you can only be expressed by the heavens! But thinking that I won't be able to escape today, why would I cause you to suffer for the rest of your life? That's why I don't dare to accept senior's good intentions! "
Hsu Qiuchan could not help crying tears of joy when she heard this. She hugged Du Qi at all costs. She spoke incoherently, "Young master, I am not suffering. I am not afraid of suffering! Young master... Do you know? I've always been looking forward to marrying you. I'm just afraid that you don't want me. For your sake, I'm not afraid of any great suffering. Besides, I'm not suffering! "
He felt Hsu Qiuchan's feelings and her warm body. Du Qi had almost lost himself. He wrapped his arms around Hsu Qiuchan and held her tightly in front of his chest. He gently caressed Hsu Qiuchan's face with his face and Du Qi could not help but reveal his true feelings. He muttered, "Chan'er, Chan'er, I also miss you. I really want to marry you!"
Hsu Qiuchan gently said, "To be able to hear this young master's words, Chan'er would have no regrets even if she died immediately!"
Du Qi confidently said, "Chan'er, oh! Chan'er, don't worry, don't be afraid! As long as I, Du Qi, still have a breath left in me, I will never let you suffer. And I will not let you suffer even the slightest bit of harm. We will be fine. Do you trust me, Chan'er? "
Hsu Qiuchan didn't hesitate at all, "Sir, Chan'er has always believed in you! With Sir here, I am not worried about anything, I am not afraid of anything! "
Du Qi was about to say something else when he suddenly heard Xuanyuan Lanqin laugh out loud, "Young Master Du, it seems that you truly treat Chan'er with sincerity. I can rest assured and give Chan'er to you!"
As she spoke, Xuanyuan Lanqin took out a small bag of oil-paper and handed it to Du Qi. She then said with some regret, "It's a pity that we are trapped here and cannot see Chan'er marry you in such a grand manner. It was even more impossible to prepare a similar dowry for Chan'er. This was the 'Xuanyuan Poison Scripture' that Chung Mengqi wanted. I will give it to you now as a dowry for Chan'er. I hope you keep it well!"
Hearing Xuanyuan Lanqin's laughter, Du Qi and Hsu Qiuchan were both shocked. They let go of each other at the same time and looked at Xuanyuan Lanqin in confusion.
When he heard Xuanyuan Lanqin's words, Du Qi could not help but be surprised. He recalled what he was thinking just now. Could it be that he misunderstood her? Du Qi hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take the Xuanyuan Poison Scripture.
Seeing Du Qi take the book, Xuanyuan Lanqin seemed to have something on her mind. She smiled casually and said, "If Young Master Du is free, you can take a look at this book. It might help you walk the Jianghu in the future."
Du Qi questioned, "In the future? Senior, do you mean I have a future?"
Xuanyuan Lanqin smiled lightly and said, "You are young, how can there not be a future? You all can rest assured. No matter what, I will let you all leave this place safely."
Du Qi naturally wanted to experience it. He had just heard that it seemed to be an extremely precious Xuanyuan Poison Scripture. Hearing Xuanyuan Lanqin's words, Du Qi did not say anything else and only said, "Thank you senior for your generous gift!" He then opened the sealed oil paper and took out the Xuanyuan Poison Scripture to take a closer look.
Seeing Du Qi's actions, Xuanyuan Lanqin could not help but feel surprised. At the bottom of the dark well, she could barely see the vague outline of the things around her. She did not expect Du Qi to be able to read the scriptures.
As if she was worried that it would affect Du Qi, Xuanyuan Lanqin gently pulled Hsu Qiuchan up and at the same time said softly, "Chan'er, you are about to be a woman. I have something to tell you, let's go over there."
Although Hsu Qiuchan didn't want to leave Du Qi's side, hearing Xuanyuan Lanqin say this and adding that her master's orders couldn't be disobeyed, she could only follow Xuanyuan Lanqin to the corner of the wall far away from Du Qi.
Du Qi originally thought that the 'Xuanyuan Poison Scripture' was just an ordinary poison scripture and its value was nothing more than the refining, poison making, poison sensing, and other strange methods and techniques contained within it. Who knew that this Xuanyuan Poison Scripture was actually an uncommon cultivation book and the cultivation methods described within it. Even he'd never heard of it, and if he cultivated it according to this method, then he would surely benefit from it. It wasn't shallow!
What Du Qi did not understand was that Xuanyuan Lanqin possessed such a precious book. Why was her martial arts only at that level? It was likely that her poison skills were not that high either. Could it be that Xuanyuan Lanqin did not know how to cultivate according to the method?
Du Qi was too lazy to investigate the reason. He only focused on reading the Xuanyuan Poison Scripture and memorized the contents of the Xuanyuan Poison Scripture in his heart.
Just as Du Qi was engrossed in reading, he suddenly heard Xuanyuan Lanqin laugh lightly, "Young Master Du, how about this scripture?"
Du Qi said without thinking, "That's right, it is indeed a strange book that can be chanced upon but not sought!"
Xuanyuan Lanqin asked again, "So, how does Young Master Du feel?"
Du Qi asked in confusion, "How do you feel? Very good!"
Xuanyuan Lanqin seemed to be slightly stunned and asked, "Young Master Du finished reading so quickly?"
Du Qi sighed with emotion," This book is extensive and profound, as vast as the sea. How can I finish reading it in such a short period of time? "
Xuanyuan Lanqin hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young Master Du, you are fortunate enough to have a glimpse of my Xuanyuan Family's supreme treasure, the Xuanyuan Poison Scripture. You should have no regrets in this life. Now, quickly return the scripture to me!"
