Chapter 375: There is no cure
The feeling of fear was suffocating, Su Tong could barely breathe, and at this time, he was sure that this person was taking care of him with sincerity and protecting him with his life.
But how did he leave everything he cared about before for his own safety, and if he had regrets because of this, could he let go?
I can't let go...... He can do what he doesn't want to do for those people, he can pester him for the people he loved before, and he can deceive him, who is not a lover...... This person is too deeply entangled in the world of human feelings to be a cold observer, and if he loses something, he will also harm himself.
How could he be told to do this, and how could he afford to be so affectionate!
Then you and I will go and go together. Su Tong's heart was agitated and he almost blurted out, his only remaining reason suppressed the flood of emotions, swallowed the words back, and buried deep in his heart the idea that they would be together before he found out for Guanyun's revenge.
He can't be greedy for warmth, if he can't be ruthless now, he can't be ruthless, and the consequences of the future will be deeper, so he made up his mind to let him die, "My life and death have nothing to do with you." β
Su Tong's cold and ruthless voice floated in the riverside wind, as if it turned into a sharp knife through his heart, Wang Jing took a step back in pain, and heard Su Tong say, "I should have lived such a life of begging for blood from the knife since I was born, but I was lucky that such a day began twenty years late, and I will not rest until I die from now on." Rather than worrying and being afraid, it is better for me to be dead. β
"You...... You ......" Wang Jing burst into tears of pain, "why are you so ruthless!"
Say what I said when I was dead!
"Because you are not the right person," Su Tong replied coldly and indifferently, "You are indecisive, you have killed the rivers and lakes in the first ten or twenty years, and the people you care about in the second half of your life have been handed over to the emperor to redeem you, you have no freedom, neither I, nor the Su family nor the He family will accept you." β
The wind on the riverbank blew mercilessly, blowing so that Wang Jing was unconscious, only the familiar voice let him close the six senses or keep pouring in.
"What's more, my father and my mother, I can't count the revenge of the He family army who died in vain, even if I kill Guanyun, can I write it off?"
"See the reality clearly, don't ask for hardships and embarrass others. β
Wang Jing didn't notice when Su Tong left, his voice kept echoing back and forth in his ears, and in a trance, the person seemed to be standing on the opposite side, until he couldn't bear to retreat again and again, retreated into the river and stumbled into the water, the sound of the splashing water woke him up, as far as the eye could see, there was only endless night, and there was no sound and shadow of him in the night.
He was weak and weak, sitting motionless in the river, and after slowly calming down, his mind was full of desire to ask him, he was so ruthless to him, because there were so many deviations between them, did he also have a heart for him? Knowing that asking to shake Su Tong's decision would not change any result, it would only be injured again......
But he still wanted to ask, Wang Jing felt that he was poisoned too deeply on him and there was no cure.
Su Tong returned to the inn, after eating, Wang Jing did not come back, he went to bed, he left a candle for Wang Jing but it was on, he couldn't sleep, so he got up and blew his breath and lay back to sleep, but he still couldn't sleep, he couldn't wait for anyone to come back until midnight, he was a little worried and wanted to find out and see, but his reason stopped him when he sat up.
Su Tongyang gave himself a slap with his hand, and his face hurt hotly, but he still couldn't help but look at the door and listen to the movement outside.
He said that Wang Jing was looking for hardships and entangled hard, so why shouldn't he!
He let out a long breath, took out a packet of medicinal powder from his baggage, mixed it with water and drank it, and before fainting, he laughed with endless bitterness that he was probably the only person in the world who gave himself *.
But when he woke up the next morning, he still didn't see Wang Jing.
Didn't come back all night, and was angry with him?
His first thought was still very hurt even if he had been prepared, so the second thought of comforting himself came again: would he not know how to face himself, still by the river?
He said to himself that he would go to the river and have a look, and that he had talked about it yesterday, and there would be no room for turnaround, and he would have to go his separate ways today anyway......
But when he passed through the forest and saw the thin flowing river in the distance, he was shocked by what he saw.
Wang Jing was half immersed in the river water and half fell motionless on the river bank, Su Tong couldn't control himself and ran over a few steps, turned the person over, and shouted to him again and again, "Wang Jing, wake up, Wang Jing ......"
Wang Jing kept saying something in a daze, Su Tong couldn't hear it clearly, he was so anxious that he reached out and dipped water on his face, Wang Jing still couldn't wake up, so he slapped his face with his hand, and as soon as he touched his body, he felt icy.
He picked up Wang Jing and hurried back to the inn, and asked the innkeeper to invite a doctor to come and see it, only to know that the person had already burned down, and he would burn it again after he got chills, and the situation was not very good.
Su Tong remembered the poison he had before, and hurriedly asked, "It's just hot, but there are other problems?"
The doctor shook his head, but Su Tong couldn't believe it, and sent the doctor away and looked at the sleeping person on the bed uneasily, he is a person who practices martial arts, and he is not poisonous, even if he soaks in the water overnight, he should not be so seriously ill......
But what he saw in front of him made him have to believe it, he helped Wang Jing up from time to time to pour him some hot water, and after the hot towel was applied to his forehead and changed it many times, Wang Jing got a little better, opened his eyes slightly, saw Su Tong clearly, thought he was still in a dream, and said, "It's just me, I'm ...... It's me, do you have any affection for me?"
Su Tong didn't want to block him anymore, so he didn't despair to the end, "If you are not Yunjin or a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, maybe we can become friends." β
Wang Jing smiled bitterly all over his face, but he didn't laugh out loud, and fell asleep again, Su Tong saw tears in the corners of his eyes, and he also doubted whether he was right or wrong to do this. said that he was ruthless, and comforted him to do something, and he woke up, and he would not have to worry about his life.
Wang Jing recovered faster than the doctor expected, and after another hour he completely came to his senses, at that time Su Tong happened to walk to the bedside with the medicine that had been boiled, and when he saw him sit up and pause, he walked over and handed him the medicine with an expressionless face, "The medicine prescribed by the doctor." β
Wang Jing took it silently, but put the medicine bowl at the head of the bed, took out a piece of oil paper from his arms, and unfolded the oil paper inside was actually yellow silk, Su Tong knew what it was when he saw it, he didn't look at the silk and looked at Wang Jing's expression first, only to see that the person handed the silk to him with a solemn face, "This is what the emperor asked me to hand over to you before leaving Huaiyin." β
Su Tong took it and looked at the ink seal on the silk, which was a handwritten message for the transfer of troops.
"Thank you," Su Tong paused for a moment, and then said, "You can rest here for another day, the pharmacy junior will be ready to send it to you, I have something important to do first." β
Wang Jing nodded, "Be careful all the way." β
Su Tong nodded at him, turned around and walked to the door, Wang Jing suddenly said, "You must come back alive." β
Su Tong didn't respond, opened the door and walked out, the moment the door was closed, Wang Jing said to himself, "As long as you live, I can bear how much pain and torture I can, if you die, I probably won't be able to live......"
This illness reminded him of the high fever after being left behind by Yue Feimu three years ago, and he understood that he lost Yue Feimu's heartache to death but did not have the intention of looking for death.
As for Su Tong, he felt that when he was seeking relief in the chaos last night, he actually had a terrible thought: kill Guanyun, and then give Su Tong the Forgotten Dust Gu, and take him to a place where no one can find it.
Unfilial piety, disloyalty, and injustice are all borne by him, and he, a person who has committed the most heinous crimes, will pay for his sins in the future life. In this life, please let him accompany him, it's just this life, otherwise whoever comes to end him will not stop thinking about it in the future.
However, at this time, when Su Tong was about to leave the inn, he listened to the people who came and went in the inn to rest and eat discussing the Huaiyin war, and he became the culprit of the successive losses of several counties in Huaiyin Prefecture.
He knew that this was a good way for someone to take advantage of his escort back to Beijing to stir trust between his father and the Zhennan Wangfu faction and the emperor, and it was also a good way to shake the hearts of the people. These people are really pervasive, and they will not let go of any opportunity, and this time they will definitely be pulled out and cut down to the roots.
Su Tong opened the reins, beat his horse and hurried to the northwest through Qingcheng.
Over there, Wang Jing got up after Su Tong left, and of course he also heard those who had talked in the hall of the inn about the battle situation in front of him after a few rounds. He clenched his fists, his fingertips were blue, but he didn't say a word, and he indifferently checked out and left, and the route was the same as Su Tong.
He did not return to Beijing, and pursued him to the northwest day and night through Qingcheng.
Su Tong first entered the court in the end, not so thoughtful, where to get the emperor's edict only that one, but there is also a message is when Su Tong was imprisoned before leaving Huaiyin, the emperor summoned him alone and said that he wanted to find an opportunity to stimulate Su Tong to let him flee to the north to seek help, and he lost the criminal to chase him all the way back to the capital, and sent Su Tong's escape north to seek Su Yi's blessing to the Huaiyin camp, it is conceivable that this news is also far away.
Whether it's in fact or in the news, everything has begun, and of course it has to end.
He didn't want to give Su Tong any stimulation at the beginning, and he didn't plan to let him escape, after waking up from the heat, he knew that he couldn't stop Su Tong, and he had to complete the emperor's order, just let him go, and then slowly catch up.
Along the way, Wang Jing was sure that there were no eyes staring at him and Su Tong, but Su Tong was so estranged that he still didn't show up to get over, so Wang Jing followed not far away, and Su Tong didn't find him until he reached the territory of Northern Xinjiang.
