071 Imprisoned Water Prison: Drinking Poison
Ziwei underground palace, in the water prison.
Twilight sat on a slippery marble face, backed by an equally slippery wall, with a waist-deep pool of water interlaced overhead by iron railings three fingers thick.
It was cold and dark, except for a dimly lit lamp hanging in the upper right corner, and under the lampshade were five or six flying fireflies.
Twilight sat at an angle, trying not to let herself slip into the water, but the water below still wet large swaths of her skirt and her shoes.
She thought that the Lord had treated her well after all, and did not let her soak in this pool of cold water.
Hearing the stone door open and fall heavily, Twilight looked up and saw a dark shadow shining above the water prison, looking at her condescendingly.
Shisu stared at her for a long time, his gaze as calm and bone-chilling as the water in a dungeon, and Twilight was more afraid of his eyes than he was of sliding into the pool.
"Behold, you loved him, but he saved others without you. Shisu said, with a mocking tone
Twilight's face turned white suddenly, the dim light became her best disguise, and her left hand unconsciously held the empty right wrist, she still remembered the warmth of Qianxing when he clasped her, but forgot how he felt when he let go of himself.
Perhaps, she didn't feel anything at the time.
"Wan'er is not a stranger. Yun'er is his little niece, the head of the Qian clan, and he is self-sacred...... It is only right to save her without me. She smiled, with obvious self-deprecation and a notable choking.
This water prison is really too cold.
"Oh, really, you really don't resent him at all?" Shisu sneered and called her another name, "Twilight, I know better than you know who you are. ”
Who is Twilight?
She is a woman who has hatred in her heart, burying herself in ice and snow and still fighting for a breath and does not want to die.
She is the head of the Intelligence Department who has countless human lifelines in her hands and can subvert Ziwei Palace at every turn.
She is the illegitimate daughter of the Liu family who came back from the dead and still did not forget to enter the golden capital for revenge.
She is the owner of the Moon Fan Workshop who is arrogant, laughs and collects gold and silver, and anger can cripple people.
She's strong, she's stubborn.
She still can't forgive her biological father Liu Hanchen.
She hates betrayal and renunciation the most.
"Your Excellency is wise!" she smiled, peerless.
Shiso left, without saying a word.
The stone door opened and fell again, and Twilight suddenly hugged herself, her fingers clasped tightly around her arm, and almost her whole body was twitching and shaking.
She's been poisoned without interest.
And Shiso won't let Wuxi detoxify her.
This is Shiso's punishment for her.
The convulsions grew worse and worse, and she finally couldn't bear it anymore and fainted. A moment before she lost consciousness, she was still thinking that Zisu was the person who knew her best, so why wasn't she the one who knew Zisu the most.
Shisu is too similar to her, and she hates betraying and abandoning the most.
※※※
On this night, the moon fan workshop did business as usual. It's just that the people have long been gone.
At dusk, Qianxing sat under the camphor tree, his hand resting on the stone table clenched into a fist. Qianyun accompanied him, and the words of consolation came to his throat several times, but when he opened his mouth, he just couldn't say it.
Mu Qingfeng leaned his head on the camphor tree, he was much calmer at this time, and his face was still terrifyingly heavy. Mu Jiu stood silently aside, his eyes already swollen into walnuts.
They were in a hurry all night, if it was somewhere else, they would have gone in to save people, but it was Ziwei Palace!
Where Ziwei Palace is located, no one knows!
They asked Chu Xiao. Chu Xiao's cold face was extremely solemn, and finally shook his head.
Qian Wan suddenly grabbed Qianxing's hand resting on the stone table, and without breaking it to see, he had already touched the blood in the palm of his hand.
"Little uncle......" Qian Wan was speechless, and the astringency in her eyes became thicker, "Little uncle, don't be like this." ”
Qianxing didn't seem to hear her words, just looked at the night stupidly, and said softly: "How can I be reluctant...... Willing to leave her alone in such a horrible place......"
Mu Qingfeng, who hadn't moved for a long time, finally glanced at him.
As the night deepened, Mu Qingfeng patted Mu Jiu's shoulder and told her to go back to rest. Mu Jiu's eyes were red and he shook his head. Mu Qingfeng was helplessly silent for a while, and was the first to leave.
Qianxing was still sitting, and Qianyun had no way to persuade him.
"Childe, I know where Ziwei Palace is. ”
Qianxing was stunned, turned his head to look at the red girl he was familiar with, and joy flashed between his eyebrows, but he wrinkled slightly.
The red girl took a deep breath and said firmly: "Ziwei Palace is in the Peerless Valley. Childe, I am a member of the Qinwei Division of Ziwei Palace. ”
Qianxing was in a hurry to go. The red girl hurriedly said, "Childe, don't!" but couldn't stop him. Fortunately, Qianyun narrowly grabbed the corner of his clothes.
"Childe, the world has said that the Valley of Absolute Man is the bottom of a cursed valley, and whoever enters the valley will die! The red girl hurriedly detoured in front of him and explained, "Ordinary people can't enter the Peerless Valley, only people from Ziwei Palace can enter." Childe, do you remember that you had to bleed me every day to expel poison?"
The Red Girl once told Qianxing that she had escaped from a gangster who had poisoned her and could find him by smell. Qianxing gave her injections, medicines, and bloodletting every day, the medicine was used to forcibly cover the body fragrance, and the bloodletting was to expel the poison.
"At the beginning of entering the palace, all the people of Ziwei Palace will get a 'Ice Muscle Pill' that will be rewarded by the Lord, as for the navel for three days, the Ice Muscle Pill will be integrated into the bone and blood, which will produce a body fragrance that ordinary people can't smell. Only the fireflies, which have an extremely keen sense of smell, can smell it. ”
"The Valley of the Peerless is full of fireflies, and once outsiders enter, these highly poisonous flying insects will attack and kill people!"
It is precisely because of this that the Liuyi of Ziwei Palace has the ability to track.
Qianyun watched Qianxing's brows frown deeper and deeper, and suddenly realized something, and immediately let go of the corner of his clothes and took a step back. However, it was too late.
Qianxing clasped her wrist and said happily: "Yun'er, can you help me?"
Qianyun's eyes were hesitant, unwilling to answer.
Qianxing said again: "As long as there is the blood of the red girl, you can use the eighteen needles of the Qianjia family to let me have that body fragrance in a short time!"
"No!" the red girl reacted very strongly, "Childe, the Ice Muscle Pill is poisonous! After it is integrated into the bone blood, my blood is highly poisonous!"
"It doesn't matter. Qianxing didn't frown, "Wan'er, only you can help the little uncle." ”
His slightly sighing and pleading tone made Qian Wan unable to refuse, but the poison of the Ice Muscle Pill made her unable to let her guard down.
"Little uncle, do you know that after I have applied eighteen injections, the fragrance emitted from your body can only last for three hours, and the toxins will remain in your body forever, and you will have to rely on daily bloodletting to relieve the toxicity like the red girl in the future?"
Qian Xing restrained his anxious look, and said to Qian Yun seriously: "Yun'er, the little uncle is reluctant to give up her!"
Qianyun closed her eyes and acquiesced wordlessly.
However, the red girl didn't want to stretch out her hand, and shook her head while crying, and retreated: "Childe, you know what I looked like when I had a toxic attack!
The first time Qianxing saw her have a seizure, it was in the Mobei Desert, she was lying in the yellow sand, pulling her hair and dying in pain. The forehead, neck, and the backs of the hands, as far as they could see, were bruised.
"But girl, I've only seen you have a seizure once. Qianxing smiled and was relieved.
"That's because you're here. ”
"You must know that the name of the still water doctor is not in vain. ”
The red girl finally stopped retreating, but she still had the last insistence: "Childe, I want to go with you! I am familiar with the underground palace and can help you find people faster!"
Qianxing nodded: "Okay." ”
