321. Obey the Destiny of Heaven (4)
"Uncle Junior, get up, don't pretend to be asleep. You heard our conversation just now, so please run this trip for me - bring back the body of the second uncle.
"I think the secret poison in her body must have flareed up. You'd better go and see her one last time. Right now, I'm afraid you'll be the only one who can find her and bring her back in three days. - Since she told you the secret of regulating the fragrance, I hope that you can go against the grain, track her whereabouts, and bring her back.
"After all, you grew up together since childhood, and you are also a husband and wife...... If you can, you might as well find her sooner so that she can die more comfortably. Just take it as if it was to give her one last ride.
"Then, if you bring back to me the exorcist shell she left in this world, you can be regarded as fulfilling her last wish for her.
"Don't worry, with me here, even if it's just a shell, I will never let anyone insult her. β
Gao Ran sat at the head of the bed and looked at Zhao Feng's back, and said softly to him.
Zhao Feng didn't reply, just scratched his ears, got up with a half-asleep appearance, and glanced at Gao Ran with some impatience. But he still got up and walked to the window, and when he opened the window, he only threw down one sentence: "I don't sleep in the middle of the night, and you still make noise for me." I can't sleep. Forget it, I'll go through the wind. β
With that, he opened the window and jumped out of the window and left.
"Three-Day ......"
After Zhao Feng left, Gao Ran summoned Xiao Er and ordered him to present all the information about the recent change of head of the An family, as well as An Yujie's actions in it, and her current specific whereabouts, before dawn tomorrow.
"Yu'er, did you choose Yun Zhen in the end? That's why your mother An Min had to entrust the An family to her younger sister? What happened to you all these years? Or what did that Yun Zhen do to you, so that you could not care about it so much that the An family could no longer tolerate it?
"I can see An Lu's expectations for you, but even so, she is still willing to assist An Qi to succeed the head of the family...... It seems that you really disappointed her......"
Although she hadn't gotten the specific information she wanted, Gao Ran, who was lying on the bed and was about to fall asleep, still thought about many possibilities until she thought of falling asleep gradually......
ββ
Sure enough, on the third day after Zhao Feng left, he came back with Ye Yu's body as scheduled - intact and with a peculiar fragrance. Gao Ran smelled that it was the smell of Zhao Feng's original antiseptic incense, and it was not difficult to think that Zhao Feng had already made a final farewell to Ye Yu in his way. Then the rest will be handled by Gao Ran.
And that night, Ji Muqing and Zuo Yi came as promised after receiving the appointment from Gao Ran.
Seeing Ji Muqing, Gao Ran said straight to the point: "The corpse is here, do you check whether it is her?" Besides, after you take the corpse and explain to 'them', I don't care what method you use to appease and persuade 'them', but you must deal with this corpse according to my method in the end." β
Ji Muqing first calmly checked the body with Zuo Yi, and confirmed with each other with his eyes that the results of each other's examination were indeed Ye Yu himself, and then Ji Muqing asked Gao Ran: "What do you want me to do?"
"Burned the body. I'll build her another mound where only we can identify the owner of the tomb, and I won't mess with you. β
"Burned?"
"Hmm. Since you can't humiliate the corpse because of the face of the doctor, and you can't bury her because of the face of your royal family, the best way is to burn her.
"In this way, it is the best of both worlds for you and me. In this way, you can let the past burn with the fire as if she never existed, and we can honor her in our own way. - We have what we have and we don't get in the way of each other.
"Furthermore, I have always believed that where the heart is, there is the soul. Therefore, if I can build a tomb for her with my heart, then even if I do not remember the name of the owner of the tomb, I only need to plant her favorite flowers and trees next to the tomb, and her soul will know that it is her home. And only when she has a place to return can her soul rest in peace. And only when her soul rests in peace, will your and my hearts be free from being disturbed by things that you cannot see, hear, or touch, but which often disturb your heart. - That thing, in my opinion, is a soul that has not yet found a home.
"So, whether you believe it or not, as long as you do have the experience of having your heart disturbed inexplicably, but somehow doing it, then doing what I want is the best choice for you and me. - Don't forget, there are still some disciples in our medical valley who are very good at the art of Qimen Dunjia, don't you ever wonder where such mysterious power comes from? β
"Good. I depend on you. But in exchange, you have to promise me one condition. β
"Tell me about it. β
"You've 'helped' me enough before, and the rest can be handled by me and the Dong family, so we don't need to bother Tiange anymore. β
"Hmm. OK. In fact, even if you didn't speak, I had planned to tell you after the matter was over.
"Don't worry, what Tiange wants is not in conflict with what you want, so as long as you can hold on to the obvious advantage you currently occupy, and eventually become the undisputed absolute strongest in the court, and are willing to mutually benefit from Tiange, Tiange will naturally not be your enemy in the future. Moreover, once you encounter a business that conflicts with your interests in the future, Tiange will also give priority to your interests over those of other forces.
"But don't get me wrong, the reason why Tiange will prioritize your interests in the future is not because you are now the Banana Emperor, but because you are now the strongest person in the Banana Kingdom. The Heavenly Pavilion is just giving the 'strongest' a priority that matches it. To put it mildly, if you are not the 'strongest' we currently identify, then even if you are the Banana Emperor, we will not prioritize safeguarding your interests.
"In fact, in fact, before you, the forces of the Heavenly Pavilion have only given the previous Banana Emperor this preferential treatment since they entered the Banana Kingdom. And now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the tide is tilting in your favor...... In my opinion, as long as there are no unexpected natural disasters that suddenly obstruct you, even if there is no Tiange to continue to assist, with your ability, coupled with Zuo Yi's assistance from the side, and Dong Tianyi's proper help, then it should be very soon that you completely sit on the throne. So now that Tiange has chosen you, it is reasonable.
"However, don't say that I didn't remind you, although it is indeed reasonable for you to be wary of Tiange, you should not ignore the Dong family, which has always been low-key, because Tiange is too conspicuous.
"Don't look at the Dong family's low-key behavior, but they have a clear calculation of their own gains and losses. They are willing to help you at this time, and that's only because they also see that the tide is on your side right now. But if you don't know how to grasp it well, then sooner or later you will lose ground due to your stubbornness, and once you start to lose power, the Dong family will definitely evacuate early. - In essence, the Dong family, like Tiange, can be your best ally and your strongest enemy, but it will never be your slave and be at your beck. - You'd better keep this in mind. β
"Okay, a little more reminder, I'll remember. β
"Hmm. That's good......"
Ji Muqing looked at Gao Ran as if he wanted to speak and stopped, frowning slightly, and unconsciously frowned slightly, and asked a little impatiently: "What? What else are you worried about? It's better to say it all at once." β
"Huh, can he see it?" Gao Ran raised his eyebrows unconsciously when he heard this.
Unexpectedly, Ji Muqing's expression changed at this time, as if she was imitating her......
"No, he's not imitating, it's the concentric Gu in our body that the senses between them have become more frequent and sensitive, that's why he is so unconsciously producing an expression that is almost the same as mine......" But after thinking about it the most, Gao Ran chuckled in his heart again, "If that's the case, then even if he doesn't know what I'm thinking, wouldn't my true feelings still be perceived by him?"
As soon as this thought flashed, Ji Muqing suddenly raised his hand to caress his own chest almost at the same time, and looked at Gao Ran with a somewhat surprised look. And when he saw Gao Ran's eyes that were also looking at him almost at the same time, but were slightly worried, he suddenly became surprised, and very unceremoniously directly punctured the fact that Gao Ran didn't want to come true at the moment: "Hahaha, I now know why this Gu is not a 'Tongfate Gu', but a 'Tongxin Gu'." Hahaha, that's a fitting name! Well, so, I'm relieved. β
After speaking, Ji Muqing showed Gao Ran his usual slightly unserious smile to Gao Ran for the first time since he came back, and deliberately sprinkled another handful of salt on the point that she was regretting in her heartβhe continued: "Hmm...... You're irritable right now. Could it be that you didn't expect this effect?"
"Nonsense! If you had expected that this Gu would not only be able to sense my 'life', but also my 'heart' at the same time, then how could I let you take it? Even if you can't understand what I'm thinking, you can sense my emotions, so wouldn't you be able to guess seven or eight points of my thoughts? Would I be so stupid to use this method to expose my secrets to you? Why should I expose my secrets?!" As he spoke, Gao Ran became more and more angry, "I knew earlier, I should have found some first." White Mouse's try, even if you waste all the materials, you can't use it directly on yourself so risky...... Am I too conceited, or am I stupid?!"
Speaking of this, Gao Ran began to talk to himself unconsciously, and couldn't help but knock his head twice.
"Oh, okay, okay, I won't make fun of you. Although this is indeed a good thing for me, you should not be too remorseful, and don't hurt yourself so much, otherwise I will be very uncomfortable. I can't imagine this feeling of resentment and remorse, if it were my own, I really don't feel very much...... But the current one is your mood, not mine, but I feel the same way with you, this taste...... It's not very comfortable......"
"You!"
"Ahh Don't be angry. I feel like there's a fire burning in my heart now, and it's so uncomfortable! It's worse than the flesh wounds I've suffered before, so you might as well spare me. β
"You ......"
Although Gao Ran knew that Ji Muqing was clearly angry with her, he was easily angered by him, and it was repeatedly. This feeling is as if after he penetrated that this concentric Gu could sense each other's true feelings, he was able to understand the mystery of how to make her emotions easily stimulated by him in the opposite way - the reason why he was able to make her so angry was because while he was talking, he in turn used this sensing channel between the two of them to release her emotions instantly, so that before she could react rationally, her emotions had already reacted one step ahead.
And when Gao Ran's slow-moving reason finally controlled her emotions, and used her power to suppress the activity of the Gu worms in her body, and compressed the induction channel that was deliberately opened by Ji Muqing's luck to the point that it could only produce a very weak induction, she coldly warned him: "Do you want to die with me now? Gu worms can indeed sense the true emotions of you and me, but if you let them be too active, it is tantamount to sending them to death!" You remember, in the future, we must keep our emotions stable and avoid being too excited, especially when we are closer to each other, the more we must remain calm, otherwise the Gu worms in our body will be overly active because of the strong induction, which will cause our mind to be easily overwhelmed by emotions, and eventually completely lost in emotions and unable to extricate ourselves. - The consequences are as serious as if you accidentally went mad while practicing internal strength!"
"Really?"
"Do you think I'm joking with you?"
Seeing Gao Ran staring at him with a cold face, and he could still vaguely sense the anger she was deliberately suppressing at the moment, Ji Muqing wisely restrained the deliberate teasing of her just now.
However, he did not regret his reckless behavior just now, if it were not for that, he was afraid that he would be troubled for a whileβabout how to deal with the relationship between him and Gao Ran.
In fact, before this, Ji Muqing had always been mindful of the passive situation of not knowing what she was thinking although she had the same fate as her. Especially when he does succeed to the throne as queen, he is even more taboo about this. But now, his concern has been fundamentally resolved, and he finally has the idea that Gao Ran had wishfully thought from the beginning that she would be the most trustworthy person he would ever be.
ββIt wasn't until this moment that Ji Muqing had the same idea.
