Chapter 64: Overboard
"Are you framed like this?" Shu Kui seemed to understand Shang Mo's approach.
Shang Mo didn't answer, only said: "Tan Yue is indeed from Yunfu, but he was only sent here to inquire about the news from the outside, and he is not a capable general. β
"So what's the use of you catching him? For Mrs. Yun, it doesn't hurt. "Shu Kui knows that in the palace, both bright and dark, there are many people from Yunfu.
Shang Mo smiled mysteriously: "It's useful." You don't understand it, don't ask. β
Since then, the matter has been over, and no one has ever mentioned it again.
And really as Shang Mo said, only two days later, Mrs. Yun sent someone to bring a small medicine bottle and explained how to use it.
The medical officer immediately applied medicine to Shu Kui and kept watch all night, and in the morning, when Shu Kui woke up, he showed her the Gu worms in the transparent glass bottle.
The insects are blood-red, and the flesh is as long as a little finger, Shu Kui can afford goosebumps all over his body, and he is so disgusted that he can't even eat breakfast when he thinks that this thing is still in his body the day before.
The medical officer left, Shang Mo came, and deliberately dangled in front of Shu Kui.
"Your Majesty, please be seated." Shu Kui was really a little dizzy.
"Do you still hate me? Do you still want to kill me? Shang Mo asked.
"I don't like you, but I don't want to kill you either, I can't beat you." Shu Kui replied honestly.
"Well, it's good, it's finally normal." Shang Mo nodded, "I met the medical officer, and he said that in three days at most, the worms will start gnawing on your internal organs." β
Shu Kui said "oh", thinking about it, it's still quite scary.
"I saved your life, should you say thank you?" Shang Mo continued.
"You're not for me, you're for yourself." Shu Kui rolled her eyes at him.
Shang Mo was bored, but he was not annoyed, and he seemed to be in a good mood: "Now that I have a big heart, I am waiting for the wedding, thinking that Ling Jiuchuan is coming and sitting at the main table, I am very happy, and when the time comes, I must pour him a few more cups." β
After saying that, he left with a smile.
Shu Kui sighed, thinking about the days to come, for a while, he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a misfortune to solve the Gu worm.
It's only ten days before the wedding, and there are people around Shang Mo, it is absolutely impossible to escape, and it is even more foolish to ask for help, and now, you can only live one day at a time, and when it comes to the wedding night, you have to find a way not to let Shang Mo get close.
After that, trying on clothes, shoes, jewelry, etiquette, and the wedding process, trivial things one after another, Shu Kui was too busy to think about anything, until one night before going to bed, she realized that the day after tomorrow, she was going to get married.
The next day, as usual, I got up early in the morning, and was about to go out to take an etiquette class, when Yun Jingli actually came.
"A few days ago, my mother came to see me and told me to get along with you." She said to Shu Kui, "At first, I was unwilling, but if you think about it carefully, your good life is only a few years, and it's quite pitiful, so I decided to listen to her." β
"Oh, good." Shu Kui was almost late, "Do you want to chat or go to the garden, can you wait for me after class?" β
"I've taken a leave of absence for you." Yun Jingli raised her chin slightly, "Follow me, I have something to show you." β
Shu Kui didn't know which one she was singing, she didn't speak, and she didn't move.
"Come on." Yun Jingli turned around.
Gardenia on the side lightly touched Shu Kui's hand and said in an almost whispered voice, "Let's go together." β
With her by your side, it should be no problem. Shu Kui thought and walked to keep up with Yun Jingli.
Yun Jing didn't look back, walked out of Xiaoyi Palace, came to the artificial lake in the garden, and pointed into the distance.
Shu Kui looked up and saw a big boat parked in the middle of the lake.
"The things in the garden are not in your eyes, but this lake is bigger than Haocang Palace." Yun Jingli raised his hand and waved, "I specially asked the craftsmen to drive it out, in the past few years, you can go up at any time and enjoy it." β
As he spoke, the big ship came ashore.
This is a painting boat, with a golden roof, vermilion pillars, delicate and exquisite carved windows, and colorful lanterns, which is very lively and festive.
Shu Kui got on the boat and saw that there were not many things inside, but the scattered fruit bowls, complete sets of tea sets, chandeliers overhead, gold and silver, and crystal crystals were full of luxury.
"Pretty good, right?" Yun Jingli was quite satisfied with the whole ship, "The furniture is mahogany, and there are many small things, which I specially bought from Boss Li." β
"Boss Li? Boss Li in the world of Kuixian National Competition? Shu Kui didn't expect to hear him here.
Yun Jingli nodded: "What's so strange about this, people from the entire Three Frontiers will go to him to buy things." β
"So, I have something to buy too." Shu Kui saw the hope of leaving the Yulan country.
"What does Your Highness want to buy, write a list, and there is someone in the palace to contact Boss Li." How could Gardenia not know what she was thinking.
When Shu Kui heard this, he remembered that there was still a person who was following Shang Mo behind him, and he couldn't help but be disappointed, and he said perfunctory twice, so he didn't mention it anymore.
Yun Jingli smiled lightly and took her around the cabin: "These are all purchased and arranged according to His Majesty's preferences. β
"Are you letting me play here with Shang Mo?" Shu Kui didn't believe that she would become so generous all of a sudden.
Yun Jingli glanced at her: "It's a wedding gift for you, but I don't think there will be such a good Yaxing with you, only in front of the public, you will be in and out of pairs." β
Shu Kui understood: "Do you want to tell everyone that you are relieved that you can't be a queen now, so you made this ship, brought me to see, and made it look like you gave me a gift?" β
Yun Jingli still smiled lightly, didn't answer, and opened the door to the deck: "Let's go outside and take a look, it's very comfortable to sit when the weather is good." β
Shu Kui went out and looked out by the railing, and the shore scenery was in full view.
"There, you can also see Qing Yongju." Yun Jingli stood behind her.
Shu Kui subconsciously asked "where", while walking to the other side, but somehow, he stumbled under his feet, and was nudged on his back, so he tumbled down from the railing that was not waist-high, and then felt a chill all over his body, and he could vaguely hear all kinds of panicked sounds coming from his head.
"Plop", someone jumped not far away, and he should have come to the rescue.
At the same time, Shu Kui suddenly thought of Ao Lingyang, as well as the blue neon in the dark, like stars, and couldn't help but think on a whim to explore the bottom of the lake.
As soon as she thought of this, she quickly dodged the people who came and dived deeper.
The depth of the lake is about five or six meters, and it will be the end after a while, Shu Kui looked around, and did not see a single fish, but found a very faint light by a stone.
The bottom of the lake is not very dark, and the light is faint and flickering in the aquatic plants.
Shu Kui became curious, thinking that he couldn't drown anyway, and it was rare that there was no one around, so he could do whatever he wanted, so he simply took it as a tour and went over to have a look.
However, unexpectedly, when they reached the stone, the light could not be found.
She couldn't help but turn her head to look around, and saw that the light appeared next to another stone.
Will move, is it really Lanni?
Thinking about it, Shu Kui also followed, but this time, Liangguang still ran away.
Then, as if playing hide-and-seek, the light will appear here and there.
Shu Kui was even more curious, and he also found it interesting, and followed him all the way, just to know what it was.
After swimming for a long time, the light flashed and disappeared.
Shu Kui was busy chasing, he didn't pay attention to the surroundings, he couldn't brake, his head hit something, and the pain was so painful that Venus appeared in front of him, and it took a long time to recover.
This should be the central area of the lake, scattered with many large and small stones, some round and smooth, some angular, Shu Kui hit the largest of them.
The stone is irregular cylindrical, with a diameter and height of about two meters at the bottom, and is completely black and uncolored.
Shu Kui rubbed his head, swam around the stone, and suddenly thought of the black reef on the beach, blocking Shu Di, and his heart suddenly jumped wildly.
Then the light appeared again, wider and brighter than before, and at the base of the large stone, one bright and one dark.
And thinking of Shu Di's disappearance of Shu Kui, his curiosity suddenly disappeared, and he was afraid, and he involuntarily retreated, intending to return to the water.
"Help." Unexpectedly, someone shouted suddenly.
Shu Kui was stunned, and instantly lost the ability to thinkβthis was clearly Shu Di's voice.
She completely oblivied that she was in the water, panicking from stone to stone, trying to find the source of the sound.
"Help." Shu Di shouted again.
Shu Kui heard it clearly, and the voice came from under the big stone.
She circled the stone again, round and round, until at last, somewhere it joined the bottom of the lake, she saw a small hole.
At this moment, the light dimmed, and came to her leisurely - it was a small transparent shrimp, drilled into this small hole, and disappeared.
Shu Kui was so anxious that he began to dig with his hands regardless of the situation.
Fortunately, the sediment at the bottom of the lake is quite soft, and after a few digs, the small hole becomes a large hole.
Looking at the darkness below, Shu Kui hesitated, but in the end, the belief to save Shu Di still prevailed over fear.
She took out the Jin Sheng stone, burrowed into a hole more than a person wide, and kept sneaking down.
After a long time, the walls of the cave gradually receded, and the space became larger and larger, until eventually, it became a circular cave.
When he got here, Jin Shengshi's light skyrocketed.
Shu Di's voice didn't sound again, and Shu Kui seemed to have forgotten the purpose of this trip, and was attracted by a pair of double hooks lying in the corner.
Unconsciously, she slowly approached, not thinking about anything, only reaching out to pick up the double hook.
And at the moment of contact, the familiar cold feeling reappeared, along the arm all the way up, straight to the heart.
Shu Kui was defenseless, and he didn't even know where the warm current in his chest went.
In the next second, there was a sudden light in front of her, and the sun was so warm that she couldn't open her eyes.
