Chapter 40
Chapter 40
"Congratulations to the host for successfully establishing a cooperative relationship with the prince, and rewarding you with 200 scum points."
"Congratulations to the host for triggering the hidden mission and letting the male protagonist taste hatred for the first time. Successfully complete the mission and reward the scum worth three hundred."
Qin Shaoyang was startled: "Hate? What kind of mission is this? There are people worth three hundred scum!"
"Where there is love, of course there must be hate~ Don't you humans often say that love and hate are intertwined! Is the host going to have a shot?"
Qin Shaoyang also thought about it seriously, "Sounds very tempting, but I only have less than ten days to live, how can I have time to complete the task?"
The system said wearily: "That's right, goodbye my dear scum, goodbye my dear energy—"
"..." Qin Shaoyang, who was lying on the bed, frowned, and changed to a side-lying position, "I have a question that I don't understand, the system, can you explain it to me?"
"Host, tell me."
He thought for a while, and said: "In the original book, it was Ao Jue who forced Jiuhua to overthrow the country, but so far in the plot, only one Su Yunqing has died. Let me figure it out, Jiuhua's road to the emperor, I am afraid There are changes."
The system gave an 'hmm' and said, "That makes sense, but what does it matter to us?"
Qin Shaoyang was taken aback: "Haven't you been maintaining the plot?!"
"I only maintain your plot, okay... The system doesn't care about other people's plots."
He was completely defeated by the system, because he thought the system was maintaining the plot of the whole book......
"You mean to say that as long as I die, even if Hua Lingxue doesn't kill me, the mission will still be considered complete?"
The system said: "Forget it, you only need to go through your own main plot, even if the ending is suicide, it will be considered as completing the task!"
"The system has also said before that you don't need to care about some branches, as long as the ending remains the same."
Qin Shaoyang sat up suddenly, with an unhappy expression on his face: "So, I have the right to refuse the task you issued?"
...The system asked strangely: "Didn't you always have the right to refuse? But if you refuse, there is no scum worth taking. Will the host still refuse the tasks issued by No. [-] in the future?"
Qin Shaoyang shook his head again and again, joking, no scum is worth how he would buy a copy of the prop strategy!
"Then I accidentally played the hero badly, is there any punishment?" Qin Shaoyang asked tentatively.
The system seemed to sense something, and a sharp voice suddenly sounded: "If you do that, you will be in bad luck in the next life!"
"People die for money! I've devoted myself to scum, and it's worth it! But, what kind of bad luck is it?" Qin Shaoyang was curious.
The system explained: "For example, you were just a small villain in the first life, and it was easy to complete the task, but if you destroy the relationship with the male host, then in the next life, your soul will be attached to a big villain, and the difficulty of the strategy will also increase. To three stars!"
Qin Shaoyang was speechless: "You mean, the difficulty of this life is only two stars?"
The system said: "Yes, the host!"
Qin Shaoyang felt powerless for the first time...
"..."
Recently, an unbelievable thing happened in the court. Jiuhua, who had just been promoted to the regent, wanted to resign and return to the valley.
At this time, there was a gossip that the regent's fellow apprentice was going around and was ambiguous with the crown prince.Therefore, everyone thought that it was Jiuhua who was so disappointed in him that he wanted to stay away from the world.
But some people said that it was because Jiuhua wanted to return to the valley to inherit the position of sect master, and had no intention of ruling and opposing the government.
No matter how the officials guessed, that person still insisted on returning to the valley, even the old emperor who was ill in bed tried to dissuade him many times, but it was ineffective.
Fortunately, the courtiers thought that there would be a phenomenon where the king with a foreign surname would compete with the prince of the current dynasty for the throne, but it turned out that they were overthinking it.
No one could understand why Jiuhua did this, just like no one could understand the emperor who had never approved his resignation, but let go in vain.
But Qin Shaoyang in the East Palace made fun of Qi Yun because he discovered an interesting phenomenon.
This young man with a paralyzed wooden face seems to adore that pervert Ao Jue!Do you like it?
Qin Shaoyang smiled meanly: "Qi Mulian, tell me quickly, why do you like Ao Jue?"
The young man stood aside expressionlessly, as if he didn't hear Qin Shaoyang's jokes, he was like a statue.
"If you don't tell me, I'll tell Ao Jue that you like him!" Qin Shaoyang brazenly threatened.
Qi Yun stared blankly at Qin Shaoyang, and suddenly pulled out the sword in his hand, and put it on Qin Shaoyang's neck: "Mr. Lu, I only have reverence for the prince, so stop talking nonsense."
Qin Shaoyang flicked the long sword on his neck with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Brother, if you have something to say, speak up!"
Qi Yun put away the long sword and inserted it into the scabbard.With a serious face, he said: "Your Highness likes Young Master Lu very much, I hope that Young Master will not hurt His Highness, otherwise—" In an instant, Qi Yun's murderous aura was fully revealed, "I will kill you."
Qin Shaoyang raised his eyes helplessly, "Why don't you say that he hurt me more!"
"No matter what your Highness does, it is right." Qi Yun took it for granted.
"..." Qin Shaoyang echoed casually: "Well, what your Highness does is right, why not if I am wrong?"
"It's good to know." After Qi Yun finished speaking, he stood aside with his sword in his arms, acting like a statue again.
Qin Shaoyang: "..."
One month passed in a blink of an eye, Qin Shaoyang calculated the time and found that there was less than one day left to survive. After eating in the morning, he set up a chess game at the request of the prince.
In the middle of the game, Ao Jue refused to make a move for a long time. He suddenly overturned the chessboard and stepped on the chess pieces all over the place as if to vent his anger.
Qin Shaoyang watched coldly, and after Ao Jue had finished venting, he said: "A man who is about to be emperor, yet he still shows his emotions like this."
"Today is the deadline, is there really no way?" Ao Jue looked at Qin Shaoyang intently: "Everyone says that Guigumen is omnipotent, why can't even you save it!"
Qin Shaoyang smiled lightly and said: "This is fate, how can a mortal fight against fate, it's just death."
Ao Jue was about to say something, but heard a report from a palace official: "Your Highness, the Regent is asking to see you."
"What is he here for?" Ao Jue frowned and waved, "Let him in."
"Are you happy?" Ao Jue saw Qin Shaoyang's happy face, and said coldly: "I heard that in order to return to the valley as soon as possible, he compiled a book "Theory of the Emperor's Mind" without sleep for several days."
Qin Shaoyang nodded: "Brother has never had any desires, the reason why he stayed in the court was because he promised to be the emperor and assist you in ascending the throne."
Ao Jue couldn't hold back, and argued, "It's hypocritical."
While the two were talking, Jiuhua had already entered the courtyard, and he saluted first: "See Your Highness."
"Excuse me." Seeing Jiuhua's tired face, Ao Jue knew it was due to overwork.
Jiuhua took a step forward, those eyes never left Qin Shaoyang, he looked at him, lowered his voice: "Junior Brother, I'm here to pick you up."
Qin Shaoyang raised his hand to brush Jiuhualing's messy hair, with a focused expression, "Brother, can you watch the sunset with me?"
Jiuhua was stunned for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay."
Qin Shaoyang looked back at the prince and smiled: "Your Highness, Qi Yun is very cute, don't miss it—"
... Ao Jue had a dark face.
The moment Qin Shaoyang turned to leave, Ao Jue grabbed the other's wrist: "Why did you leave with him in the end?"
Qin Shaoyang leaned forward and whispered in his ear: "It's better to let him hate me than to be sad."
This sentence made Ao Jue's mind go blank. He wanted to ask what the other party meant, but when he was dazed, the two had already left his sight.
"..."
Jiuhua and Qin Shaoyang clasped their hands and walked out of the palace slowly.
After leaving the palace and coming to the busy city, Jiuhua hired a carriage and drove it himself, while Qin Shaoyang sat on the right side of Jiuhua.
The fast-moving carriage quickly moved away from the hustle and bustle of the market, and the surrounding scenery kept changing as the carriage drove fast.
After a stick of incense, Jiuhua parked the carriage beside the clear spring in the mountain.
He tightly grasped Qin Shaoyang's hand, picked him up by the waist, and jumped up to the highest point of the mountain with lightness kung fu.
Until there was still some distance from the top of the mountain, Qin Shaoyang suddenly said: "Brother, please let me down."
In front of the eyes are infinite winding rocks, the sky is getting dark, and the cool wind is blowing.
Jiuhua secretly used his internal strength to block the cool wind and drive away the cold for Qin Shaoyang.After walking for a while, the road gradually flattened, and the maple leaves scattered around were rolling down with the wind, like fiery red clouds in the sky.
"Senior brother is here." Qin Shaoyang clenched Jiuhua's palm and pulled him to the gazebo, his brows were full of joy.
He pointed to a boulder: "Let's sit here."
Jiuhua grabbed Qin Shaoyang's hand and brought him into his arms: "Junior Brother, I have something to say."
Qin Shaoyang's eyes flashed with confusion, "What's wrong, brother?"
Jiuhua tightly strangled the person in his arms, something was wrong with the strength.
The two hugged each other under the fiery red maple leaves, and the autumn sun gradually set in the western mountains, dyeing the sky red.
"I've been very restless and restless for the past few days. Occasionally, I would dream of you lying in front of me covered in blood. Every time I wake up from the dream, I regret not bringing you back. This time I finally caught you. Having you by my side makes me feel at ease."
Jiuhua sighed: "Fortunately, it was just a dream."
Qin Shaoyang remained silent, and buried his face into Jiuhua's neck.
After a long silence, Qin Shaoyang said: "Brother, I'm sorry."
Jiuhua suddenly had a bad premonition, and this premonition came true soon, accompanied by a vague fragrance.
At this moment, his body was weak and gradually limp.
Qin Shaoyang hugged the man who was about to fall, and rubbed Jiuhua's neck.
Jiuhua supported his weak body, pushed Qin Shaoyang away, and stared coldly at him: "Why?"
He is most familiar with this smell, and it is a spice that can kill people.
Qin Shaoyang stretched out his fingers to wipe the blood from the corner of Jiuhua's mouth: "I promised Your Highness when I was young to help him ascend to the throne of God. You make Your Highness very disturbed."
The voice was obviously from the younger brother, but Jiuhua couldn't understand what the other party was saying.
"Don't you know that I have no intention of governing?" Jiuhua clutched Qin Shaoyang's sleeve robe, his bloodshot eyes were full of grief.
"Senior brother should have known when sorting out "Emperor's Heart Technique". As a king, those who can be used by me can be used, and those who can't be used by me can be used, and since you can't be used by His Highness, you can only get rid of it."
The junior brother's voice is still clear and pleasant, as soft as a spring breeze.
But Jiuhua felt that this was a dream, or a nightmare.
"Lu Shengyu, you deceived me for the third time, and there will be no next time! No!" Jiuhua's red eyes stared straight at Qin Shaoyang.
His heart is clamoring, liar, cheat again and again!Lies, all lies!
Qin Shaoyang squatted down and raised Jiuhua's jaw: "Brother, don't you know, I have never liked you, I like—"
"Ao Jue."
Jiuhua's pupils suddenly dilated, "Impossible, it won't—"
Anger has defeated Jiuhua's rationality, and at this moment, only the words "I like Ao Jue" that the younger brother said are left in his mind.
impossible!How can you like Ao Jue?He doesn't believe it!
Qin Shaoyang was affected by Jiuhua's leaked internal force, and he spit out a mouthful of blood, which stained his Tsing Yi.Sticky blood splashed on Jiuhua's face.
The strong smell of blood recalled Jiuhua's reason.
Seeing Qin Shaoyang lying aside covered in blood, he giggled
This is....
Dream?
In the dream, the junior brother also fell in front of him covered in blood——
"Lu Shengyu!" He supported his weak body and brought her into his arms.
"Lu Shengyu!"
No matter how he called, no one answered. After probing with his fingers, he found that the person in his arms was not breathing. He wanted to use his internal strength to heal the wounded person, but his body was sore and weak.
Hugging the person in his arms tightly, he laughed suddenly: "It's okay, you were seriously injured by me, and I was poisoned by you, so it's okay to die together."
"..."
The setting sun in the sky was like fire, and the maple leaves swirled with the wind and fell on the two of them.
He used the last bit of internal force to support his body to stand up, then hugged Qin Shaoyang, and staggered forward.
In the evening, the cool wind blows up the clothes of Jiuhua, and the jade belts are flying. The desolation and loneliness in the eyes are like falling maple leaves, losing their vitality.
He hugged the boy in his arms tightly, looked at the cliff under his feet and smiled sadly: "Master must be very disappointed in us, why don't we disappear together."
Embracing the young man in Tsing Yi, he jumped down.The moment he fell off the cliff, he recalled the boy in the past and said: "Brother, I like you——"
It's all a lie...
And inside the Ghost Valley Gate, which is like spring all the year round, the complexion of the man who has just stood there has changed drastically: "The emperor star has crashed."
“…”
Qin Shaoyang, who escaped from Lu Shengyu's body, was immediately brought into the system space by the system.
This was the first time he entered the space in the state of soul, so he was a little curious, and floated to the left and to the right.
The system couldn't stand it anymore: "Host, why are you so excited..."
Qin Shaoyang, who was in a state of soul, laughed: "Of course I celebrate getting out of Lu Shengyu's body! As long as I think of the male protagonist waking up and finding that I am not poisoned, I will burst into tears and be moved to tears, and then my seven emotions will increase! "
Speaking of this, Qin Shaoyang became more and more excited: "The system checks quickly, has the love value increased!"
"Transmitting data...please wait."
"Successful delivery."
"The male lead's current statistics are as follows."
Anger value: one hundred
Happy value: negative twenty
Sorrow value: thirty
Fear: zero
Love value: fifty
Evil value: zero
Desired value: [-]
Added hate value: [-]
Looking at Qiqing's expression, Qin Shaoyang has already been petrified in the wind.
What seems wrong?Why is love worth less? * value has become higher?And why the hi value changed from zero to negative! ?
The anger value is actually one hundred? !
"System, are you sure the transmission is correct? Shouldn't the hero love me very much? qaq" Qin Shaoyang's whole soul began to twist, he refused to accept this value!
"Wait—the system is asking why."
"Cause generation...."
""Three Lives Tribulation: Emperor Nine Flowers", the ending of the host strategy is that the hero died..."
"Host! Nima exploded!" The system beeped, "How did you kill the hero?!"
Qin Shaoyang was at a loss: "I don't know!? I obviously used soft incense powder, but I deliberately made the smell like poison. Drugs just to annoy the hero's hatred.
"It is said that after the male protagonist wakes up, he will find that he was not poisoned, and then look at me who was seriously injured, regretting it, and feeling extremely distressed! This is the ending!"
System: "Then there is only one possibility... Jiuhua committed suicide..."
Qin Shaoyang cried and said: "How swollen is that? The hero is a good emperor seedling, but I killed him..."
No. [-] couldn't help but screamed: "You, the host of the Wanniankeng system!"
The desperate voice of the system came: "I have already foreseen how difficult the task of the next life will be. Is it too late for me to ask for a host change?"
Qin Shaoyang wandered in the system space, and said contemptuously: "Who are you threatening? No one wants you except I want you. Hurry up and change the next life. I want to conquer Jiuhua's snake spirit disease! After conquering the third life, I will be free. !"
The system secretly lit a candle for Qin Shaoyang...
"System transmission..."
"The identity of the next life is being determined——"
