The Glorious Summoner - Chapter 607
607 Why do you raise pigs in the forbidden garden?
The Weng Zhong realm Pearl that he had just fused with was the same as the realm Pearl of the earth escape technique that Xia Pingan had obtained previously. They were both the easiest and most difficult realm pearls to fuse.
In the world of the realm Pearl, there was a giant in armor standing in front of Xia Pingan. As long as Xia Pingan said the name Weng Zhong, the fusion of the realm Pearl would be successful.
If one didn’t know its history or had a spiritual will crystal, the success rate of fusing with such a realm Pearl was zero!
!!
After this Weng Zhong realm Pearl was fused, Xia Pingan picked up the realm Pearl of the ‘Forbidden Garden Shepherd pig’ again. In just a moment, his entire body was once again wrapped in a light cocoon.
……
As soon as Xia Pingan opened his eyes, he found himself in a garden. The first thing he saw was a prosperous and beautiful scene. The surrounding garden was full of rockery, man-made pools, corridors, pavilions, halls, pavilions, flowers, and trees. A few guards were following beside him. In front of him, a eunuch-like man with a snow-white face, as if he had applied powder, was carefully introducing himself to him.
look, the pine trees, pomegranates, cherries, and the embellishments of Julie, Shandan, Ruixiang, and Hanxiao are all from Fujian and Lingnan. They were built in the 2nd year of qiande. The high hill over there is huazui Ridge. There is a horizontal view on the ridge. From the horizontal view, you can see the Phoenix and ruohong bridge in The Painting Pool at the foot of the mountain. The Willows around The Painting Pool are also excellent. Although The Painting Pool is smaller than Jinming pool, it has its own scenery. If your Majesty wants to go up there, you can see the beautiful scenery. I’ll lead the way for Your Majesty.”
no, I’ll just walk around, ” Xia Pingan said casually.
a few days ago, a few peacocks and monkeys covered in golden fur were sent from the South. They have been settled in the garden. The monkeys are different from ordinary monkeys. Their fur is golden and shiny, and they have an auspicious aura. Your Majesty, do you want to go and see the Suan ni? ” the old eunuch introduced with a smile. Then, he took Xia Pingan from the small path in front and turned in another direction.
A monkey covered in golden fur? Auspicious Qi?
isn’t that a Golden Monkey? ” Xia ping ‘an shook his head and laughed. At the same time, his eyes swept across the Royal Forbidden Garden. This Royal Forbidden Garden of the Northern Song Dynasty was indeed one of the best places in Tokyo. It was a place where all the rare animals, flowers, and plants were gathered. Every plant and tree here had a history. No wonder Song Shenzong was so shocked when he saw a few dirty black pigs raised here when he was playing.
The old eunuch was leading Xia ping ‘an towards the place where the animals were kept. However, before they had even walked a few dozen meters, the branches of the flowers on the side suddenly shook. Then, a black shadow darted out of the flower bed and rushed towards Xia ping’ an at an extremely fast speed.
When the guards at the side saw something rushing towards them, two guards immediately stood in front of Xia ping ‘an to block it. One of the guards was indeed an expert. The moment the black shadow rushed out from the flowers, the other guard had already rushed forward. With just one kick, the black shadow was kicked so hard that it let out an ear-piercing scream. It was kicked more than two meters high in the air and fell heavily towards the flower bed at the side. The moment the black shadow landed on the ground, a blade flashed and the black shadow was cut into two.
The guards by the emperor’s side were naturally experts.
The old eunuch who was leading the way was so scared that his face turned pale. It was not until this moment that he shouted at the top of his voice, ” protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!
there’s no need to panic. It’s just a pig, Gugu. Xia Pingan shook his head and waved his hand to signal the guards beside him to stand aside. He walked forward to take a look. The black shadow that had just startled the guards beside him was a black pig that was born and bred and was more than a meter long.
The big black pig was already dead, but it was still stinky. There was a layer of pig dung and mud on its body, and its blood was flowing all over the ground. It looked extremely filthy.
When The Black Pig rushed out from the flowers, it was kicked by a guard and its internal organs and bones were shattered. When it fell to the ground, it was killed by another guard. At this moment, the big black pig was covered in blood and was motionless.
The guards beside him were also surprised. They looked at each other. How could there be such a pig in the royal family’s Forbidden Garden? it almost startled the Emperor.
As soon as the big black pig was killed, two men with ropes and wooden sticks ran over, panting. From their clothes, they were dressed like servants in the forbidden garden. When they saw the big black pig was killed and the Emperor was here, they were so scared that their faces turned pale and they knelt down immediately.
bastard, why did this pig come here? it almost disturbed the official’s Xuanji. the old eunuch went up and scolded.
“Eunuch, please calm down. This pig was originally raised in the pigpen over there. I don’t know why it opened the pigpen and ran over today. We quickly came to chase after ran ran.”
“What, there are pigs in the forbidden garden?” Xia Pingan asked.
The old eunuch hurriedly turned his head and explained to Xia Pingan, ” official, these pigs were not raised only in the past few years. They have been raised since the time of Emperor Taizu. Emperor Taizu has set a rule that if you want to raise some pigs in the forbidden garden, you should raise them in the corners of the forbidden garden. They are usually raised in a corner so that no one can see their crickets.
Oh, let’s go and see the cormorant. Xia Pingan’s interest was piqued. He wanted to go and take a look. The so-called rare and exotic beasts in the forbidden garden were not rare. However, he wanted to see how these big black pigs were raised.
“Official’s family, the side where the pigs are kept is too dirty and a little unsightly.”
“The four Seas are not the king’s land. Not to mention, there’s nothing I can’t go to in this Forbidden Garden. Also, there are many pigs in the houses of the common people, so there’s no harm in me going to take a look. Let’s go, Yingluo.”
Seeing Xia ping ‘an’s firm attitude, the eunuch could only take Xia ping’ an to the forbidden garden where the pigs were raised.
To be honest, no pig farm in the world was clean, let alone in ancient times. Even in the forbidden garden, the pig farm was the same. A bamboo forest and cherry trees were specially built in the most remote northwest corner of the forbidden garden. Inside was a Pigpen. Usually, the swill left by the people in the forbidden garden would be thrown here to raise pigs.
The pigs were rolling around in the mud pit, and the pig manure pit was next to it. The stench was unbearable. There were seven or eight black pigs in the pigpen, and all of them were in high spirits. They were well taken care of by the servants in the forbidden garden.
these pigs are too dirty and it’s not suitable to keep them here. If your Majesty doesn’t like them, I’ll have people remove all the pigsty in this Forbidden Garden in the future. We won’t keep them anymore, ” the old eunuch said carefully as he looked at Xia Pingan’s expression.
Xia ping ‘an smiled. In the real history, when Song Shenzong found out that the royal family still kept these dirty and smelly pigs, he also felt that these pigs were a killjoy in the forbidden garden, so he ordered the pigsty to be removed and no longer kept pigs. However, in less than two months, Song Shenzong ordered people to start raising pigs in the forbidden garden again. Why? This was because one night, a demon used a spell to cause trouble in the palace, causing great song’s Palace to be in chaos. Then, an old man in the palace said that according to the tradition and rules left in the palace, fresh pig blood could be used to break the demon’s evil spell in such a situation. However, where could he find fresh pig blood?
When he reported this to Song Shenzong, he finally understood why his ancestor kept pigs in the royal family’s Forbidden Garden. It was to be used to ward off evil at a critical moment.
Pigs lived in the dirtiest and stinky places without any taboos, so pig blood naturally had the effect of destroying evil.
since raising pigs in the forbidden garden is the rule left by great ancestor, he must have his reasons. We don’t understand it now, but there’s no need to deny it in a hurry. Let’s just leave these pigs here and raise them as usual! Xia Pingan ordered.
“Yes, sir!”
……
More than a month later, at night, a few balls of green flames suddenly appeared in the palace of great song. Around the flames, there were cries of people. All kinds of sounds came from a few uninhabited abandoned gardens and rooms. The shadows of ghosts appeared one after another. The Imperial Guards felt their heads hurt and their hearts were trembling.
In the end, an old eunuch who had lived in the palace for many years told them that they could use pig blood to break the evil. Then, the guards remembered that there were still pigs in the forbidden garden. Someone immediately went to get fresh pig blood. When they encountered evil, they poured it on it. All the evil spells were broken. They also caught a demon, Lao Ai, who had broken into the palace somehow.
The next day, Xia ping ‘an received a report that the palace had caught a demon last night. Only then did he know that the pigs raised in the forbidden garden had made a great contribution. Before he could praise the guards, the world of the realm Pearl was shattered.
The second realm Pearl was successfully fused.
The upper limit of the secret mandala’s divine power had reached 9087 points after the integration of the two realm pearls.
