Chapter 22: Death in Hell
It was night, in Xinlan Palace, Jimo was leaning on the window railing alone, looking at the full moon in the night sky in a daze. Not all novel websites are the first romance debut, search + read the book network and you will know. This is the first time she has had insomnia since she came out of the valley, and it is also the first time in her nearly five years that she thinks of the person she buried deep in her memory.
The breeze is cool, and when it blows gently, it sends a faint fragrance. Jimo didn't know that it was the smell of lilacs. So elegant and fresh, so secluded, in such a sultry night, as if inadvertently, it brushed the heartstrings that had been dusty for a long time, and made a "Zheng" sound, familiar and distant.
Fragments of light and shadow vaguely appeared in my mind, a little girl about three or four years old was running in a courtyard with lilacs in full bloom, and not far in front of her, a woman as beautiful as a nine-day fairy stood gracefully among the flowers, but the pair of autumn eyes were full of sorrow, as if they would break into a virtual shadow when touched.
"Mother's ......" muttered and stretched out her hand, and Mo Wuxin almost unconsciously wanted to wipe the sadness from her face. However, the fingertips poked out slightly, and all that could be reached was nothingness. With a sad smile, she slowly retracted her hand, and the temperature in her eyes cooled down inch by inch in an instant, that person, really, is gone. Hell will die, hehe, where are you going to die?
How long has it been since I've seen such an expression? Involuntarily recalling the little girl who was so withdrawn that she never talked to anyone five years ago and guarded the world like a little beast, Shenyan only felt that her heart was faintly throbbing. No, he couldn't let her go back to her old state, that dark side should never have been on her.
"Xin'er, you, are you okay?" gradually emerged from the night, and since he had made up his mind, Shenyan no longer hesitated. Walking forward quickly, his eyes locked on her every expression, not letting himself miss a single thing.
"Senior brother? What are you doing here? Subconsciously surprised, Jimo Wuxin took a few steps back, vacating the position in front of the window and letting him in: "I thought that you had already returned to the Netherworld Ghost Tower." β
"When I go back, you can go to the country of Houtu?" There was a bit of reproach in her tone, and because of her reaction, Shenyan couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Xin'er's martial arts are not low, and her five senses are much sharper than ordinary people. On weekdays, as long as he comes, she will often find out first. But today, he had been secretly observing for so long, and she didn't even know at all. It's not hard to imagine how immersed she is in her own thoughts, which is not a good sign.
"You know everything......" shrunk his neck, facing such an aggressive Shenyan, Jimo Wuxin usually only showed weakness.
No matter how she usually behaves in front of people, but in front of the senior brother who watched her grow up, and it is no exaggeration to say that she is her savior, she will always be the little girl she was at the beginning. Shantai Shen Yan is in her, not only has the friendship of the same family, the grace of saving lives, but also has the love of relatives that can not be destroyed by anything. Perhaps in her heart, his position is far more important than herself.
"Could it be that you still want to hide it from me?" Glancing at the little woman in front of him, he hooked the corners of his mouth wickedly, and then sat down on the chair next to him: "Xin'er, it's not a good habit to make decisions privately but not tell Senior Brother SΓΉ." β
I don't say you don't know it all yet. Secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, Ji Mo Wuxin didn't dare to put this on the table. Slowly rubbing over to him and sitting down, she thought for a while, but finally gritted her teeth fiercely: "The plague over there has broken out very severely, this is a good opportunity to win over the Houtu country, I don't want to miss it." β
To her surprise, Shenyan did not immediately speak out against it. After looking at her quietly for a long time, he just sighed lightly, and seemed to be a little helpless: "Xin'er, do you know how many people died there?" I know you're good at healing, but it's not an ordinary disease, and the plague doesn't discriminate against people, so are you sure you're going to take the risk? β
He is not a great and selfless person, on the contrary, he is actually very selfish, so selfish that in his heart he only cares about the people he cares about, and whether the rest is life or death is none of his business. The epidemic situation in Houtu is very strict, and this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but so what? He only knew that he never wanted to see Jimo have an accident, not at all.
"Senior brother, if it's just this, then you don't have to worry." Standing up, the smile on the corner of Jimo Wuxin's mouth gradually became bitter: "I've figured out what that plague is all about." β
"Oh? That's ......" I didn't like to see her show such a look, and probably guessed that it might be related to her previous low relationship, and Shenyan was almost desperate to know the reason.
"Hell Afterlife." Spit out these four words in a low voice, and Ji Mo Wuxin's eyes drifted out of the window again, this time, it was full of hatred and anger: "An unborn poison hidden in the Split Gold Country, once the dosage is too large, the people around it will be infected by the person who was poisoned in the first place, and that person will always remain in a state of poisoning and become the biggest poison gas spreader." β
Hearing this, Shenyan's body couldn't help but stiffen, and then a contemplative look passed over Jun's face: "I remember, the old man seems to have studied this thing back then, right?" At that time, Xin'er had been taken back to the ghost valley by him, and he should have known it.
"Well, to be exact, Master actually studied it for me." nodded, and Jimo Wuxin's voice became deeper and lower: "Senior brother, do you know, my mother died after being poisoned by this." β
"What?!" I never knew that there was such an inside story behind the death of her mother, and Shenyan's eyes instantly showed a look of disbelief: "But isn't your mother the former queen of the Split Jin Kingdom?" Why ......" In the middle of his words, he suddenly realized something, and a beautiful and evil face fell silent in an instant, with a dangerous aura of mountain rain: "Could it be ......?"
"That's right, my father, the emperor of a country that splits the golden kingdom, personally poisoned my mother, his wife." opened his mouth word by word, and at this point, Ji Mo Wuxin already seemed to be telling someone else's story, his tone was cold and cold, mixed with seven points of ridicule and disdain: "Hell died, he gave my mother a kiss, this is it." β
