I Slay Demons in the Demon City/
Chapter 160 Blood Oath
Mademoiselle Pearl, seeing that she would cut her hand with a knife and bleed herself, dared not make obeisance now.
She originally thought that making an oath was a fun thing, but she didn't know that it was not so fun. It would cost a lot of money, it would have to see the truth, and it would have to swear!
She now realized that she was on the wrong boat. Originally, all these things were what she wanted, but in the end, she regretted it and did not want to become sworn brothers..
Ma Ji looked straight and shook his head:
"Miss Pearl, since you have promised it, it must be done,
In fact, it is one cut by a knife, and it doesn't hurt at all. It feels like an ant stung one bite on your palm..
Did you ever get stung by ants when you were a child?"
Pearl shook her head and said:
"Aiya, I'm most afraid of ants. Ants are really disgusting. One bite really hurts, and it will make your whole body swell..
Once I was stung by ants. Later, doctors from the Imperial College came to see me one by one. They all said they couldn't see me. The emperor was angry. Then the imperial doctor was scared to death. Only then did he cure my illness..
That imperial physician, that is, the first imperial physician, he couldn't cure my illness, and in the end, he was killed by the emperor!
Don't underestimate it, it's poisonous!"
Ma Ji listened and shook his head even more violently. He thought to himself,"The emperor of the Ming Kingdom is so cruel. How precious is the imperial physician? He said that he didn't take good care of your illness and pulled him to behead him. If the Ming Kingdom goes on like this, can it not destroy the country?"
In fact, Pearl's thoughts are very clear.
Pearl wants to go back to Daming country by herself to help Daming country turn the tide.
He knew he had no such power; the wheels of history rolled on, and no one could change them; he wished only that Pearl should not be so sad.
Moreover, the end of the Great Ming Kingdom has been doomed. That is history and he cannot change it..
If he changed history, he wondered if the Heavenly Dao would agree or not. Moreover, did he have the ability to do so?
Although Ma Ji did not want the Great Ming Kingdom to be replaced by the Qing Kingdom, the Qing Kingdom was after all a foreign nation, not a Han nationality. The Great Ming Kingdom of the Han nationality was a territory established after Qin Shihuang unified the world..
If the Great Ming Kingdom is occupied by foreigners, the life of the Han people is very, very miserable. This can be seen from the later historical process..
At this thought Martin felt very guilty about Miss Pearl. There was nothing he could do for her, but all he could do now was to bring her home safely.
So Ma Ji said very gently:
"Mademoiselle Pearl, be quiet, and let us be sworn!
If you're scared, just close your eyes and I'll pull a knife for you..
”
Mademoiselle Pearl shook her head and said:
"Brother Ma Ji, if you pull a knife on my palm, won't that leave a scar on my palm?
You see my palm is so beautiful, you have the heart to pull a knife on it?
Can't you think of another way? Don't you have the Nine Needles?
If you stick a needle in my finger, won't blood come out?
Oh, you're such a stubborn person. You only know how to talk and you only know how to do things in the most stupid way. I'm a little disappointed in you!"
Ma Ji immediately looked embarrassed..
Yes, how true Miss Pearl is!
He was so stupid. When he saw Long Aotian and the others cutting his palm with a knife, he did as they said. Why didn't he know how to think of other ways?
So sometimes a person's thinking does not change, it is difficult to change their own destiny!
Mademoiselle Pearl, born in a palace, knew by nature how to obtain the greatest benefit at the least cost.
If Pearl could think of a way to cut off her hand, or of a blood pledge, why could she not think of it herself?
At this point Pearl Buck said:
"Yes, Miss Pearl is quite right; we women need not be like them, with a big cut in the palm, and a bloody one.
That would be rude and barbaric..
After all, our women's palms are very beautiful, just like works of art. How can we cut them casually?
Ma Ji, Master Ma Xian, just use your silver needle to prick my finger once!
Just take a drop of blood and get it out..
Okay, okay, please..
”
:.
I never expected Pearl Buck to be among sworn brothers and sisters, so this time it is not as simple as sworn brothers, but sworn brothers and sisters.
Long Aotian heard this and quickly said,
"Yes, yes, my wife is right. You ladies, you just need to make a small incision with a needle and bleed some blood..
When the blood drips into the wine, we drink it together, then we are brothers and sisters!
Because this blood, it's a bond of worship, it means we're related like family..
Therefore, in the worship ceremony, this blood is the key, it is a medium, it is indispensable..
All right, brother horse, you just stick needles in the ladies!
We men are definitely not that delicate. If we can cut a knife, we definitely don't need needles. Hahaha…"
Ma Ji didn't feel a bitter smile. He didn't expect his 9-needle technique to be used to prick fingers and bleed!
But now he could only do so, so he smoothly pricked Pearl Buck and Mulan on their fingers, took out a drop of blood, and then dripped it into the wine.
Who knows what Pearl would do when her turn came.
Pearl put her right hand behind her back to keep the horse from pricking her.
Ma Ji frowned and said:
Pearl, what are you up to now? Hold out your hand, and let me prick it, and let us not waste our time by waiting so long for you alone.
”
Pearl said, smiling:
"I can give you a needle, but you have to promise me one request!"
Ma Ji didn't want to say quickly:
" Alright, alright, hurry up and say it! Don't say one request, even if you have ten requests, I can agree to it!"
Now Maji was trying to coax Pearl into obedience, so that he could finish the needle smoothly.
All were waiting for Pearl to come and be sworn brothers and sisters, and why should she be embarrassed to waste all their time?
Ma Ji is a person with a strong sense of time. He must do everything quickly. Don't waste his time and everyone's time. He thinks it's a big waste of time!
Pearl suddenly cried out:
"Good!
Master Ma, you promised me. Even if I ask you ten things, you have to promise me..
Okay, I'll start with my first request. Listen carefully..
Number one, just because we're sworn brothers and sisters doesn't mean that we can't be closer than brothers and sisters in the future. Can you confirm this?"
The meaning of Pearl's words was clear to all.
This Miss Pearl wanted to be closer to Ma Ji!
In this way, Pearl and Ma Ji's relationship was not like Long Aotian and the others imagined. It was a husband-wife relationship.
That's what they think..
Hua Mulan and Cheng Yaojin felt that Pearl's request was not unreasonable..
Miss Pearl is the princess of the Great Ming Kingdom. Her relationship with Ma Ji has not reached that stage yet. Everyone knows it very well..
It seems that this Pearl girl has a special liking for Ma Ji. She hopes to reconcile with Ma Ji for a hundred years and become a family member..
This is understandable, because Ma Ji is a very good man..
Any woman met a horse, do not miss, otherwise it is a lifetime regret!
Of course, Hua Mulan has no regrets. She met Cheng Yaojin. Each has his own love..
Before Ma Ji could reply to Miss Pearl's request, Long Ye spoke up:
"Yes, I think Miss Pearl's proposal is very good..
sworn brothers and sisters, after all, are not blood brothers and sisters, can develop feelings.
I agree! No doubt! I agree!"
In fact, in Long Ye's heart, his own selfishness.
Would it not be a good thing, he thought, if he could be on good terms with miss pearl, if he could become princess pearl's son-in-law?
