Chapter 228: Do Things for Me Tomorrow 5,000 words
"But, but ......" Ling Chen's eyes straightened when he heard this, and he was so shocked that he couldn't even speak. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In fact, Ling Chen didn't know what to say anymore, Mr. Miao did say so before, people didn't say that this was something that could be improved to a good thing, but the two of them understood it wishfully, who could blame it?
"That's right, Ling Chen," Mr. Miao, who continued to shake the water cup in his hand, thought of something and asked, "Do you still have the peony petals I gave you that day?"
And Ling Chen was still in a stunned state at this time, and finally relieved himself and immediately replied: "Yes, after Mr. handed over the petals to me that day, I wrapped the petals, and it has been useless, and I originally thought of returning them to Mr. ......."
As he spoke, Ling Chen took out a cloth bag from his arms, obviously containing those petals inside.
However, at the moment when Ling Chen opened the cloth bag, Ling Chen was directly dumbfounded, because as soon as the cloth bag was opened, a trace of fly ash floated out, and he looked carefully into the cloth bag, but saw that there was no more than half of the lake blue peony petals inside, only some dust......
"This ...... Sir, I'm ......" Ling Chen panicked suddenly, he didn't know how to be like this.
Leaving Mr. Miao's residence that day, he immediately carefully received all the petals on the plate into this cloth bag, although Ling Chen had already accepted it, he didn't think about taking it, the purpose of his acceptance was just to not refute Mr. Miao's face, and he planned to return it to Mr. Miao when he had the opportunity in the future, but he didn't expect that the petals he carefully collected had now become like this.
Mr. Miao looked at Ling Chen and said, "You don't have to worry, I have to apologize to you, Ling Chen." ”
"Apologize?" Ling Chen looked at Mr. Miao with wide eyes and asked, "What did Mr. say that?"
"Oh, it's finally ......" Mr. Miao didn't answer Ling Chen's question, but looked at the cup that had been shaking with his hand, and said suddenly.
The water in the cup has been completely dyed pale blue by the drop of lake blue liquid, but it doesn't look as viscous as the original drop, Ling Chen stood beside Mr. Miao, looking at this cup of antidote, I don't know if it's an illusion or what, he always seems to feel that this cup of antidote still seems to have a faint blue smoke, although it is not very obvious, but Ling Chen feels as if he sees smoke.
"Sir, how is this antidote going to be used, can you drink it?" Ling Chen asked as he looked at the antidote.
As soon as he heard that the antidote was adjusted, Ling Chen stopped thinking about the problem just now, and stretched out his hand to take the antidote from Mr. Miao's hand, but he didn't trust Mr. Miao, it was just because he didn't want to trouble Mr. Miao to do it himself, just to feed the antidote, Ling Chen did it.
And at this moment, something happened that made Ling Chen stay in place again, only to see Mr. Miao flick his wrist, and actually sprinkled the cup of antidote directly on Ling Chen's body, although it was not much, but it instantly wet Ling Chen's clothes and hair.
"Sir, what are you?" Ling Chen asked, standing stunned in place, feeling the dampness on his body.
"I'm detoxifying you," Mr. Miao slowly walked to the rotor, put the water cup back on the table, and said: "The poison on the rhizome of the lake blue peony is contagious, just now you carried him all the way over, your body was also stained with this violent toxin, just now I was antidote, from the beginning it was not to save him, but to save you, don't ask me why I did this, I will explain this later." ”
Mr. Miao was right, because Ling Chen really wanted to ask with a puzzled face just now, but fortunately, Mr. Miao stopped him in advance.
"That sir...... What should he do?" Ling Chen didn't ask why, but looked at the older boy lying on the bed, after such a long time, the rise and fall of the young man's chest had begun to slowly slow down.
Mr. Miao also looked at the young man, but there was no pity in his eyes, and he said lightly: "It's okay if it's infected, but there is no way to save the person who is poisoned directly because of the juice of the rhizome, and he should be relieved in a while." ”
"How can this be, sir, ...... you" Ling Chen trembled when he heard this, and sat down on the ground again.
Mr. Miao continued: "This is also his fate, greedy people will die of greed, I just contributed a little, but I didn't expect him to bury his life so simply......"
Ling Chen was a little stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Sir, what do you mean by that?"
"Do you remember what happened that day, you two gang me carried two plates containing peony petals, and after that, I gave you one of the petals, and only then gave him the rest of the rhizomes, right?" Mr. Miao explained, Ling Chen nodded when he heard this, and Mr. Miao continued: "But actually, I originally planned to give him another plate of petals, but I didn't expect him to ask me for something before I could open my mouth......
Speaking of this, Mr. Miao looked at the bag of dust in Ling Chen's hand, sighed and said, "Greed, this is a big taboo! From the moment he knew the value and function of this lake blue peony, the look in his eyes had changed, and the feeling of longing for it had gone beyond the basic bottom line......
Ling Chen trembled when he heard this, he had roughly understood what Mr. Miao wanted to say, and looked at the young man lying on the bed again with a sad look.
Then, I only heard Mr. Miao continue: "Originally, I wanted to give one of you a pill that day, but after seeing his eyes, I decided to test him, in fact, I already knew that the petals of this lake blue peony would turn into fly ashes, so I gave you the whole plate of petals very generously, and at the same time to see what you performed, you can also see the young man's reaction, of course, the result is very clear, and I also chose to hand over the rhizome of this lake blue peony to him." ”
"Temptation? I already knew that it would turn into ashes...... Ling Chen listened to Mr. Miao's words, his eyes widened and he looked down at the bag of dust that he had been holding in his hand.
Seeing this, Mr. Miao said: "I originally planned to let both of you come to me to do things for me, but his greed obviously made him miss this opportunity and lose his own life, and the reason why I must give him that poisonous rhizome is not only to test him again, but also to kill him directly when he fails the test." ”
This can be said to be ruthless, but Ling Chen, who was standing there, understood this approach very well, in this case, under such a character, if he couldn't use it for himself, it should be to get rid of a possible trouble in the future.
Knowing this, Ling Chen was a little relieved, but he also became a little decadent.
His relationship with this young man is not very good, it is just the friendship of living under the same roof, at the same time, Ling Chen's nature is an extremely kind person, seeing that such a life is about to disappear in front of him, Ling Chen's heart is still a little unbearable and sad.
Ling Chen looked at the young man lying on the bed again, but saw that the young man's chest was no longer undulating, as if he had stopped breathing.
"So, this person just can't be wrong," Mr. Miao also found out about the young man's death, but he was not moved, and continued to say lightly: "One wrong step, it is very likely that you will fall into the abyss and take your life for nothing." ”
Ling Chen didn't say anything when he heard this, but he was still looking at the young man's corpse, his eyes a little distracted.
"Ling Chen, now you know all this, and people can't be resurrected after death," Mr. Miao took his gaze back, closed his eyes, and asked Ling Chen: "I don't want to force you, but I still have to ask, Ling Chen, are you willing to do things for me alone in the future, and only be my attendant?"
Hearing this, Ling Chen's eyes were still blurred, but there was hesitation on his face, and after a long time, he finally nodded and agreed.
Mr. Miao smiled when he saw this, and said: "Very good, I will not treat you badly, from now on you have no relationship with this Yang family, you are just my personal entourage, your current strength is still a little weak, you stay by my side to cultivate and become stronger, and wait until a few days, I have an important task to entrust to you, I hope you can do it perfectly." ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Ling Chen suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Mr. Miao and asked, "Sir, is it ...... What task?"
Mr. Miao looked out the window with a smile and said, "I want you to leave the Apocalypse Empire and go to the Star Moon Empire to join the sect located in its north, the Beichen Sect ......."
