305. The Gentle Assassination (6)

"I, like you, do things for Gao Liwen. ”

"Nonsense! How could Gao Liwen let the chess pieces in his hand know their true identities? Say, who are you?"

"Hmph, still don't you want to admit that you're fine? Okay, then I'll make it clear to you at once. ”

As he spoke, Ye Yu also sat down, as if he was about to talk slowly and for a long time.

I just heard her say unhurriedly:

"I didn't lie to you, I did work for Gao Liwen, and I did know that you were Gao Liwen's secret work in the palace.

"In fact, not only you, but I know all the list of all the detailed works that Gao Liwen secretly laid in the Banana Country.

"It is true that Gao Liwen is indeed as you say, and will never let the chess pieces in his hand know their true identities, but I am an exception. for what he wants me to do is different from yours. And if you want to help me get things done, you have to let me know your specific list. Therefore, although Gao Liwen did not take the initiative to give me the list, he deliberately relaxed his vigilance against me, so that I could easily get the list. And what I'm going to do now is actually what he expected.

"I don't care, though. Anyway, as long as I can kill the Banana Emperor with my own hands, it doesn't matter who uses it. What's more, in order to help me get revenge, Gao Liwen did help me a lot. So, it doesn't hurt to be used by him. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Yu suddenly tested Zuo Yi with a little playfulness: "If you don't believe it, then as proof, I can give you the antidote to the Gu poison on your body, and I can also tell you the specific list of other detailed works." But in exchange, you must help me in matters of revenge. ”

But without waiting for Zuo Yi to react to this, Ye Yu smiled slightly mockingly. Then he continued to say to himself:

"Originally, I was worried that you might have betrayed Gao Liwen and turned to the Banana Emperor. But after I came to you, I knew that the Gu poison on your body had not been resolved, so you would never dare to betray Gao Liwen.

"And the wait-and-see attitude you have upheld these days also makes me feel that you don't really feel like you will be loyal to anyone...... Rather, you will choose what is best for you.

"Come to think of it, you may not be loyal to Gao Liwen, you just don't dare to betray him. However, in this way, it is in my favor.

"How? Choosing me is a better choice for you than choosing Gao Liwen or Jiaohuang. ”

"You, can you really get rid of the Gu poison on my body?"

Zuo Yi was extremely surprised, and once again recalled what Ye Yu had just said, and then finally understood the meaning of her words, and naturally it was not difficult to think of her true identity.

But he still didn't forget to ask confirmatively: "Could it be that you are the disciple of the Medical Valley who developed this Gu poison for Gao Liwen? So you can get rid of this Gu poison that only Gao Liwen has an antidote?β€”β€” because even if you don't have a ready-made antidote, you know how to prepare the antidote?"

"Hmph, yes, you got it in time. ”

After receiving Ye Yu's indirect admission, Zuo Yi couldn't help but widen his eyes, but then he deliberately closed his eyes again, and then took a deep breath, and after slightly controlling his emotions that began to get out of control due to extreme surprise, shock, and a little surprise, he finally replied in a slightly suppressed whisper: "Let me think about this matter again, and I will reply to you tomorrow." ”

Zuo Yi knew that Ye Jue's actions this time would not and would not delay too much time - even if she seemed to have been "brewing" for her revenge for many days on the surface, his intuition made him feel that she must not be hastily assumed that she was planning to fight a protracted war because of this temporary "slow image".

After all, incidents like - first quietly accumulated for ten days and half a month, and then suddenly broke out in an instant - have long been common in this deep palace. It's just that the targets of such incidents are only some important people in the palace in the past, but no one has ever dared to use such a trick on the Jiaohuang Emperor.

But just because it hasn't been there before doesn't mean it won't be the case this time. - What's more, Ye Yu has also made it clear that the target of her revenge this time is the Banana Emperor.

In this way, Zuo Yi naturally cannot make a rash choice. - Even if the conditions given by Ye Yu were indeed very tempting, and it was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that he had been looking for for many years and might really allow him to completely get rid of the control of Gu Poison, he still couldn't be tempted easily.

And Ye Jue also understood that this matter was urgent, so he accepted his proposal and decided to wait for the night and come back tomorrow to listen to his reply.

After she left, Zuo Yi continued to sit alone for a long time, and after he was completely calm, he remembered that he had gone to Tiange a few days ago to book the news that he wanted to buy......

"There are still three days, as long as it is delayed for another three days! Once I get the list of the disciples of the Medical Valley who are still in the territory of the Jiao Kingdom, I will be able to know whether she is true or not. At that point, it's not too late to make a decision!"

At this time, Zuo Yi still had doubts about Ye Yu's true identity. Although what she knew about his identity and the poison in his body did make her words very convincing, she still couldn't convince Zuo Yi completely of what she said. - After all, she did not have Gao Liwen personally prove her identity, and she herself never directly stated her true identity. She, after all, is still very suspicious. - But even so, Zuo Yi can't help but admit that her ability may far exceed his previous speculation about her, otherwise, she would not be able to easily find out these top-secret information from Gao Liwen's hands, which even the Banana Emperor did not know.

With such an idea, on the second day, Zuo Yi pretended to agree to Ye Jue's suggestion and chose to help her. But as he reneged on Gao Liwen's quid pro quo with the Banana Emperor in order to help her, she had to hand over the antidote to the Gu poison first.

But Ye Yu is not stupid, although in order to gain Zuo Yi's enough trust, she did want to give this antidote, and she did give it, but what she gave was only half.

And in order to rationalize what he did, and to avoid possible extraneous branches in the future, Ye Yu made his words clear from the beginning:

"Originally, the real antidote I developed at the beginning only needed to be taken once, but this time the situation was special, so I changed the antidote to be taken in two doses. And this antidote was prepared before I came here, and I was going to be ready for a rainy day. I didn't expect it, but I really used it.

"Listen, this antidote not only needs to be taken twice, but also needs to be taken half a month apart, and it must be retaken on time. Otherwise, the half of the antidote you took before would be transformed into a deadly poison that would trigger the early onset of the Gu poison, and this Gu would directly kill you! At that time, even if you took the antidote that Gao Liwen gave you that could only be used to delay the onset of the Gu poison, it would be useless.

"Don't forget, this Gu was developed by me, and naturally only I know all its characteristics.

"But rest assured, in fact, the matter I need your help is now halfway through, and you only need to cooperate with me for another seven days, and after seven days, I will give you the other half of the antidote, and you and I will not owe each other from now on.

"Naturally, if you still want to find a greater position of power for yourself afterwards, then I can also give you all the detailed lists in Gao Liwen's hand, which should be regarded as a thank you gift. - After all, since you have chosen to help me, you will inevitably be at odds with Gao Liwen in the future...... His temperament, I know all too well: what he hates most is the pawn in his hand acting privately - especially the pawn that has completely escaped his control......"

"Oh, sure enough. After Zuo Yi listened to Ye Yu's self-talk, he was not surprised. He had expected this trick she had played. And the specific deadline she mentions that he needs to cooperate with only confirms his previous suspicion that she may have already started to act, but is using him in a way that he is not aware ofβ€”is indeed true.

Coincidentally, the deadline given by Ye Yu, whether it was the seven-day time limit that she needed him to continue to cooperate with, or the maximum safety period (half a month) that the half of the antidote she mentioned could guarantee, all happened to be after the reply date promised by Tiange (three days later).

Although these days have been a bit tight, it also happened to give him a golden opportunity: as long as he covered it up well, once he confirmed the authenticity of Ye Yu's identity as a disciple of the Medical Valley, he would be able to make a clear choice immediately - among the three parties of Ye Yu, Gao Liwen, and Jiaohuang, make the most favorable choice for him.

So, although Zuo Yi seemed to calmly take the antidote handed by Ye Jue, he did not take it immediately.

In order not to arouse Ye Jue's suspicions, he followed the matter she had just mentioned, and asked more specifically: "You just said that your matter is already halfway through? Moreover, it only takes me to cooperate with you for another seven days? Hmm...... You've been here for seven days...... So, I've been used by you since you're here?"

When Ye Jue heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, but he didn't say anything, just looked at him silently and patiently. She knew he had something to say.

And Zuo Yi naturally wouldn't ignore the slight curl of the corners of her mouth at that moment, and she knew that her guess was really right. But she also knew from this that if he continued to ask directly, she would definitely not confess. Even so, he can only use a roundabout way to get the answer he wants.

So, Zuo Yi no longer bothered with those questions about Ye Yu, and instead brought up the current business again: "Say, how do you want me to cooperate?"

If Zuo Yi's guess is right, then what Ye Yu needs him to do for her in the future is likely to be a continuation of what he has already done for her before. Even if she refused to tell him the truth, what did she use him for? He could still start from the things that he needed to do for her in the future, and which of the things he had done before was probably "doing it for her?β€”β€” after all, now Zuo Yi already knew Ye Yu's ultimate purpose. And now that the purpose is clear, it is no longer difficult to find among the things he has done in the past, and the things he will do in the future, that will help her to achieve her purpose.

"Oh, don't worry, I also know your difficulties, and I won't let you do anything 'extraordinary'. ”

"What do you mean by this?" In an instant, Zuo Yi had actually guessed the meaning of Ye Yu's words, but for the sake of caution, he still specially asked.

"Don't understand, or don't believe it?" Ye Yu looked at Zuo Yi with a little scrutiny for a while before adding, "It seems that you don't believe it...... However, you can really rest assured that I won't bother you. As long as you are alert enough, then afterwards, the guilt for this matter will not be found on your head. You just have to do your part as always.

"You should know that I let you know who I am and what I am because you happened to have broken through 'those people' who tried to take me by night, and neither of us wanted to make a big deal out of itβ€”especially me, because I didn't want to get caught up with it. What's more, you are not someone else, but 'my own person', so I naturally don't have to hide it from you.

"If you really choose me, then you shouldn't have fearless doubts about me. Otherwise, for you and me, in the end, we will only hurt ourselves before hurting the enemy. - You should also know the temperament of the Banana Emperor. If you can't cooperate with me wholeheartedly, then once the matter is revealed, you and I will not be able to die well!"

"Hmm. What you're saying is. Then it's up to you. ”

As he spoke, Zuo Yi unconsciously showed a smile of unknown meaning, but it made Ye Yu not feel the slightest danger from him.

And after seeing him finally take the antidote in his hand, Ye Yu finally put his mind at ease, only when his smile just now had no other meaning because he had been in this deep palace for a long time and had long been accustomed to not easily revealing the slightest true affection......
