Chapter 42: The Death of Butong
Ji Rui evaded the patrolling guards and finally returned to the Joy Pavilion.
Although it was late at night, the lights in the Joy Pavilion were still as bright as day. All the maids were not sleeping, they were still waiting for Ji Rui.
"Why hasn't the eldest sister come back? Through the door, Ji Rui heard Xia Fang's voice coming from inside the door.
Ji Rui was very moved in her heart, and at the same time, she also knew very well that from today on, she and them were no longer the close sisters they used to be.
Ji Rui pushed open the door and woke up several maids who were dozing off.
"Eldest sister, you're back. We're worried about you. Wu Qing was the first to see Ji Rui, and she shouted with joy.
"I've walked around the house, so let's go to bed if it's okay. Ji Rui explained slowly. She didn't use a commanding tone, because from the moment she was committed to Tong Xi, she was no longer qualified to order these maids.
"I can finally sleep!" said a few dozing maids.
Wu Qing and Xia Fang obviously felt Ji Rui's abnormality. But they didn't ask, and they sensed that Ji Rui was distancing herself from them, consciously or unconsciously.
The lights in the Pavilion gradually went out, and all the maids were already lying on their beds, and some of them were even asleep, snoring slightly.
Ji Rui didn't sleep, she was thinking about many questions. I wonder if Tong Xi will really make her the wife of the city lord?
"Damn Butong, why is every man so obsessed with you?" Ji Rui couldn't stop resenting in her heart. "If you die, there won't be anyone to fight with me. ”
Once a person chooses to fall, he will fall deeper and deeper. Today's Ji Rui is like this.
…………
The next day, it's time for lunch.
The kitchen guy brought the maids' food. Of course, since Bu Tong and they are nominally Tong Huan's maids, Bu Tong's meals were also delivered here.
Ji Rui served a meal and secretly put a packet of medicine into it. Then he instructed a maid, "Xiao Ruo, you can send Miss Butong's food over." ”
So, this poisonous meal was sent to Butong's Bishui Pavilion.
Although Bu Tong is already an apprentice level 3, he has not yet reached the point where he can skip meals, and if he wants to really Bigu, he has to wait for a senior apprentice.
The food in the city lord's mansion is indeed very fragrant, and Bu Tong wiped out the food sent over in a few clicks.
Just as Butong finished lunch and wanted to go out for a walk, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
Butong came to the bed with difficulty and lay down, at this moment she was already sweating profusely.
Then the sharp pain began to spread from her abdomen, first her internal organs, then her limbs, and there was not a single place that did not hurt.
"I'm poisoned. It's just the meal. "How could Bu Tong not understand what was going on at this moment.
"Am I going to die? I must see my brother again before I die. ”
Bu Tong endured the pain and took out the lotus seeds that Qin Ying had given her.
"Brother, brother......" Bu Tong called out quickly and strongly.
…………
"Brother, brother......" A call came from Qin Ying's soul.
"It's not good, something happened to Xiaotong!" Qin Ying woke up in an instant, and then instantly transferred, appearing in Phoenix's body, and then appearing beside Bu Tong.
Of course, at this moment, Qin Ying was just a ghost clone appearing beside Bu Tong, while his human body was still cultivating in the secret room.
Looking at Bu Tong curled up and in pain, Qin Ying was shocked, "Xiaotong, what's wrong with you?"
"Brother, is that you? Are you really here? I'm going to die, I want to see you one last time before I die. Bu Tong endured the pain and said slowly.
"Xiaotong, you won't die, believe brother, brother won't let you die. Qin Ying grabbed Bu Tong's hand and said bitterly.
"Brother, why can't I see you?" Bu Tong shouted in the same panic.
"Wait a second, brother. After Qin Ying finished speaking, he disappeared.
"Brother, where have you been?" Losing the sense of touch in his hand, Bu Tong became frightened.
But just a second later, Qin Ying reappeared, this time no longer a ghost clone, but a human body, and Qin Ying had already become Qin Yin's appearance.
"Brother, I finally saw you. Seeing Qin Ying appear, Bu Tong finally smiled with difficulty.
Qin Ying came to Butong's side and held Butong in his arms. "Xiaotong, tell my brother, what's going on?"
"Brother, don't ask, I just want to die quietly in your arms. Butong quieted down, she no longer twitched, stopped shouting, and just lay quietly in Qin Ying's arms.
"Don't say stupid things, brother won't let you die. Later, Brother will take you to a mysterious space where you will be reborn and reborn. Qin Ying comforted.
"Really?" Bu Tong obviously didn't believe it.
"Have you forgotten the special abilities of the Divine Bird? Qin Ying said with a smile.
"That's great, then I won't lose my brother. Bu Tong laughed happily, she was naturally happy to be able to not die.
"Then can you tell my brother what the hell is going on now?" Qin Ying asked again, how could he just watch Bu Tong being hurt without any action.
"I guess someone poisoned my food. Bu Tong said with difficulty, she was almost at the limit at the moment.
"Then who did you poison?" Qin Ying asked with a frown.
"I guess, it's probably Tong Huan's maid, the jealousy in the heart of Ji Rui who poisoned me. After all, where did my food come from. Butong seems to be unable to hold on. If she really dies and her soul is broken, even if Qin Ying has the space to conceive, she won't be able to save Bu Tong.
Qin Ying also knew that Bu Tong had reached the limit, "Brother knows, your time is running out, I'll send you in, and when you wake up again, you can see me." Okay?" Qin Ying said, touching Butong's hair.
"Hmm. Bu Tong nodded. She was speechless.
Then Butong, who was originally lying in Qin Ying's arms, disappeared and appeared in the gestation space.
Qin Ying thought of the scene when he conceived a clone, and he wanted to add the golden energy in his soul to Bu Tong's conception, but this golden energy didn't listen to him at all.
"Could it be that the newborn Xiaotong can only be exactly the same as the original?" Obviously, Qin Ying couldn't accept this matter, otherwise how could this show the peculiarity of his ability to conceive?
At this time, Qin Ying thought of the golden horn he got from the Tong family's treasure house, so he put this horn into the breeding space by magic.
After Bu Tong's body and golden unicorn entered the gestation space, they were instantly disintegrated into two masses of matter, and then the two masses of matter mixed together and formed a giant egg. Bu Tong was re-conceived in this dome.
Sensing that Bu Tong had successfully begun to conceive in the allowed space, Qin Ying's heart was put down. At least he didn't have to worry about Butong's safety for the time being.
"If you dare to be unfavorable to Xiaotong, you must pay the price. Qin Ying's face instantly turned cold, he wanted to avenge Bu Tong!
