Nangong Jin said with a smile, but a hint of caution flashed in his eyes.
"But, beauty, let me tell you something ugly earlier. Even if this matter is not important, it is still entrusted by our three benefactors. I can tell you, but you must also promise not to reveal the existence of this mausoleum to outsiders. Okay.
?"
"No problem."
Yun Luo nodded calmly. She had no intention of revealing this matter to anyone.
"This matter starts from the time when the old palace master of Xianle Palace poisoned more than 100,000 people in the Northern Desert more than ten years ago..."
Nangong Jin's voice softened, "In that battle that year, Beimo Kingdom suffered heavy casualties. Not even a tenth of the Beichen family was left alive. Thousands of miles of fertile land were turned into poisonous land, and corpses were everywhere. The old palace master became famous because of this, but it brought unexpected consequences to the four countries.
Disaster."
"Beauty, have you seen the map of the four countries?"
He turned around and asked abruptly.
"I've seen it." Yun Luo was stunned for a moment, and a map of the mainland subconsciously appeared in his mind.
The four countries are arranged according to the four directions of east, south, west and north.
Among them, Beimo Country is located due north.
Behind it, there are huge grasslands and Gobi, with snow-capped mountains far away in the sky and few people visiting.
"Since you have seen the map, beauty, you should know that there is a big river in Beimo Kingdom, which runs from east to west, north to south, and connects the four countries."
Nangong Jin sighed, "Back then, the old palace master poisoned thousands of miles away, and the bones piled up on the river bank. There was no time to deal with it. The blood and toxins seeped into the river, and then flowed along the river to the Four Kingdoms... causing an unprecedented situation in the history of the Four Kingdoms.
The Great Plague."
"Plague?!"
Yun Luo took a breath of air.
She had almost imagined the scene.
What the ancients called plague was not just one disease, but a general term for all infectious and nasty diseases.
As long as it is a disease that can spread over a large area, it can be counted as a plague.
And even in modern times where medical methods are highly developed, the horror of infectious diseases still leaves people with lingering fears.
Not to mention ancient times...
Even if there are alchemists on the Kyushu Continent, there is probably nothing they can do to prevent the spread of the plague over a large area...
Nangong Jin's next words undoubtedly confirmed Yun Luo's suspicion.
"In that plague, hundreds of thousands or even millions of innocent people were infected and died. The four kingdoms were filled with grief and death. Even our three major families were involved in it, with countless casualties..."<
/p>
Yun Luo shuddered when he heard this, and another unknown fire broke out.
"What about the old palace master? This is something he caused. Doesn't Xianle Palace care about it?"
"Why don't you care?"
Nangong Jin sneered, with a hint of deep ridicule in the corners of his romantic eyes, "If Xianle Palace doesn't care about it, where do you think its good reputation among the four countries comes from?"
"..."
Yun Luo instantly realized something, and his face turned extremely ugly.
"Although the emergence of the plague was caused by the old palace master alone, with his identity and status, who dares to say this? The two sects and one palace have always regarded the subjects of the four countries as ants..."
Nangong Jin asked Yun Luo with a half-smile, "If it were you and accidentally killed a nest of ants, would you feel guilty?"
Yun Luo was speechless for a moment.
However, how can living people be the same as ants?
Treated like ants...
Yun Luo has heard these words many times, but never once has he deeply realized the cruelty and indifference of these four words.
She pursed her lips and said with an ugly face: "What happened next? Why did Xianle Palace come forward again?"
