Chapter 212: Life is Better Than Death
Ji Xing's face turned pale all of a sudden, and there was a rare horror in his eyes.
Without him, the Hidden Arrow struck at his lower body like a meteor.
Just when he thought he was going to be scrapped.
"Ah......" Unexpectedly, the sleeve arrow suddenly shot through Qingjun's hand that was grabbing his lower body.
Ji Xing broke out in a cold sweat, he gasped for breath, and he still had palpitations at the moment.
If that arrow misses the slightest, the rest of his life will be over.
"Ah......h
"Qingjun. The remaining two teenagers looked at him with horror in their eyes.
"Childe!" The next moment, Ji Xing's shadow guards broke through the window, and they were all dressed in black and holding long swords.
Qingjun wailed and couldn't speak, and the other two teenagers looked at Ji Xing's shadow guard with frightened eyes, and said in a trembling voice, "Who are you?"
"The subordinate's dereliction of duty frightened Childe. Except for Mu Heng, the other shadow guards all knelt in the room, and they lowered their heads and didn't dare to take a second look.
Mu Heng stepped forward to pick up Ji Xing's robe, and with a wave of his sleeves, several teenagers on Ji Xing's couch flew up instantly.
"Ah......h
Mu Heng put down the curtains around the bed, and he raised his hand to Ji Xing.
Only then did Ji Xing regain consciousness.
Mu Heng helped him sit up, dressed him in a robe, and arranged his long hair.
Ji Xing's face was crimson, he gasped for breath, and his body was still very hot.
Mu Heng stepped forward and opened the curtain.
Ji Xing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Qingjun with gloomy eyes and said word by word: "Hand over the antidote." ”
Qingjun and the other two teenagers were already scared silly.
"Hand over the antidote!" Mu Heng stepped forward and kicked Qingjun in the chest, he came to his senses, he hurriedly took out a brown porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Heng, looking at Ji Xing and begging loudly: "Please Langjun spare your life!"
Until this moment, they still didn't know Ji Xing's identity.
Mu Heng unscrewed the porcelain bottle and sniffed, he turned around and handed Ji Xing two antidotes.
Ji Xing swallowed it in one gulp, and he crossed his legs on the couch for a moment to breathe.
When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were clear, and it was clear that the antidote had worked.
"The subordinates are derelict in their duties, and they also ask the son to forgive their sins. Mu Heng also knelt in front of Ji Xing with his hands crossed.
Ji Xing slowly stood up, he looked at Mu Heng and the group of shadow guards and said, "The matter of punishing the crime will be talked about after returning to China, you guys should get up!"
"Yes. With Ji Xing's order, Mu Heng and the group of shadow guards dared to get up.
Ji Xing's face was gloomy, he glanced at the few teenagers in the room lightly, and said lightly: "Kill them all!"
Several teenagers in the room were startled and were about to beg for mercy.
"Poof......" With a wave of the long sword in Mu Heng's hand, several people instantly fell in a pool of blood.
"Burn down such filthy places!" Ji Xing said, jumping from the window.
When he looked back again, the spring breeze was once a sea of fire.
The carriage is ready.
Ji Xing raised his legs and got into the carriage, and Mu Heng followed.
"Who is the one who shot the arrow?" as soon as he got into the carriage, Ji Xing looked at Mu Heng and asked.
Mu Heng was slightly stunned, he looked at Ji Xing and said, "It's the person of the Gao family Langjun." ”
Under Ji Xing's gaze, he was ashamed and then said: "The subordinates were all trapped by Ji's aunt's people, and when the subordinates withdrew, the son was gone, and when the subordinates were leading people to look for the son around Linzi City, the people of the Gao family Langjun suddenly came, and the subordinates found the son." ”
Ji Xing hooked his lips and said, "That person's archery is really accurate!"
The carriage went straight to the inn.
Mu Heng raised his hand and poured Ji Xing a cup of hot tea.
Ji Xing shook the teacup gently, his eyes lit up and his lips hooked and said, "What a Ji aunt, I really like her more and more." ”
"Ah sneeze......" Ji Yu was already asleep, and her nose itched and sneezed.
She rubbed her itchy nose, rolled over and closed her eyes.
This time Ji Xing suffered such a big loss, he knew that Ji Wei had calculated him, and he couldn't stab King Qi and let King Qi cure Ji Wei's crimes, not only that, but he also had to cover up the matter.
Otherwise, if this matter spreads, how can he save face?
Do you have to become the laughing stock of the world!
Ji Xingzhen really held back his anger and had nowhere to vent.
Seeing that the carriage was about to arrive at the post house, Ji Xing's face sank and said, "Go to Ah Yin's other courtyard." ”
Even though there was a curfew at the moment, how could he stop him.
"Yes. Mu Heng arched his hand and said.
It's midnight.
In the palace, except for the guards who kept vigil and the maids who went to work at night, everyone else had already slept.
Chu Ci had just finished a day's work, he was wearing a palace temple robe, his hair was tied back casually, his chin was smooth, as if he wanted to change someone in just a few days, he had a peculiar smell all over his body, his eyes were dry and there was no look at all, and his figure was as stiff as an old man.
The other temple people disliked him and did not want to live in the same room with him, so the temple people in charge could only vacate the firewood room for him to live in.
But there were men guarding him for twelve hours a day.
He went back to the firewood room and sat down, and on the shabby table lay a bowl of soup with a few leaves floating on it, and a long-haired nest head, which was his daily meal, and only one meal a day.
He knew that Xu Hong had ordered these people to torture him on purpose.
He hadn't slept in days.
"Little Chuzi, why are you lazy again? Go back and work for me. Sure enough, as a few days ago, the temple man who had just sat down to take charge of the affairs came with people.
He would have resisted a few days before, but after a few days he had become numb.
He grabbed the long-haired nest on the table, nodded and said, "It's a slave, let's go." ”
The temple man in charge looked at him coldly.
In fact, the days in the palace were not so sad, but Dazai-sama spoke, and they could only do it.
Seeing that he knew each other like this, the temple people did not feel sorry for him anymore.
"Ah......" Chu Ci swallowed the long-haired nest head, and when he came out of the firewood room, he only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he fell to the ground.
The temple man in charge was angry when he saw it, he raised his foot and kicked Chu Ci hard, and said viciously: "Little Chuzi, you get up for me." ”
Chu Ci's face turned blue, he lay motionless on the ground with his eyes closed, and he didn't react at all to how the temple people in charge kicked him.
"Are you pretending to be me?" The temple man in charge looked annoyed, he turned his head to look at a few temple people on the side and said, "Go get a bucket of water." ”
"Yes. "One of the youngest temple people hurried away.
In a moment, he brought a bucket of water.
"Keep him sober. The temple man in charge gave an order.
"Whoa......" The temple man raised his hand and poured a bucket of water on Chu Ci.
Although it was already spring, it was still very cold at night.
"Hmm......" A bucket of water was poured on his body, Chu Ci opened his eyes weakly, he only felt that the whole person was like falling into an ice cave, and his teeth chattered and slowly got up from the ground.
He looked at the temple man in charge with a dead face and said, "Slave, go to work." ”
The hairy nest was covered with dirt, and he picked it up from the ground and stuffed it into his mouth, and when a person was extremely hungry, what dignity and what face had long become worthless.
Chu Ci walked very slowly step by step, and anyone who had been frozen should know that the extreme cold was hot, and there was a chill and heat on his body as if he was stepping on the clouds, and he only felt that the whole person was fluttering.
"Bang......" took a few steps, and he was really exhausted and fell heavily to the ground.
This time, the temple man in charge did not have such a good temperament, and he raised the whip in his hand.
"Papapa......" hit Chu Ci hard at once.
After a few strokes, Chu Ci's back was peeled.
"Don't be lazy and get up and get to work. The temple man in charge looked at Chu Ci and said sharply while fighting.
"My lord spare my life, my lord spare my life! The slave will get up and go to work. Chu Ci held his head in his hands and kept begging for mercy.
Only then did the temple man in charge withdraw the whip.
Chu Ci stood up with a rolling roll, and he walked towards the backyard with a blank face.
There were countless toilets piled up in the backyard, and he picked up the brush on the side and went to the sink and washed the toilet vigorously.
The moonlight is quiet.
The temple keeper looked at him for a while and then left.
Only the youngest temple man was left to look at him.
The temple man moved a chair and took a quilt to wrap around his body, and he only showed two eyes to look at Chu Ci casually.
Chu Ci brushed the toilet blankly, and the wounds on his back kept oozing blood.
I don't know how long it took, when the temple man who was looking at him was confused.
"Puff ......" Chu Ci's eyes darkened, and he plunged into the sink of the toilet.
The temple man woke up instantly, and he ran to the pool in a few steps, only to see that Chu Ci had sunk.
"Come on!," he shouted, tearing his throat open.
Several temple people hurriedly ran over, and the temple person in charge was also awakened, and he looked at the temple man with angry eyebrows and scolded: "What are you doing with the ghost crying wolf? If you wake up the nobles in the palace, be careful about your life." ”
The temple man closed his mouth instantly, and he reached out and pointed to the sink for washing the toilet.
Only then did the temple people in charge see Chu Ci soaked in it, and he commanded several temple people to take bamboo poles to scoop up Chu Ci with a look of disgust.
People like Chu Ci are not qualified to hire a doctor.
Seeing that Chu Ci was really fainting, the temple man in charge ordered a few people to carry Chu Ci back to the firewood room, and then left with the people, leaving Chu Ci to fend for himself.
When Ji Xing arrived at Gao Yin's courtyard, Gao Yin had already gone to bed.
If ordinary people want to see Gao Yin, they can pass through layers of reports, and whether they see or not depends on Gao Yin's mood.
But who Ji Xing is, he has always taken an unusual path.
He knew that Gao Yin had already gone to bed at this time.
After living here in Gao Yin for a few days, he already knew this place clearly.
He climbed over the wall and went straight to Gao Yin's bedroom, without causing a single wave along the way, and he boasted that he was quite proud of his kung fu.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he approached the other courtyard, Gao Yin received the news.
"Lang Jun, Yan Gongzi is here. Jiang Ling stood at the door of Gao Yin's bedroom and said softly.
Gao Yin's voice sounded faintly: "I know, don't stop him, you retreat!"
"Yes. Gangneung retreated.
Gao Yin was lying on the couch with his back to the outside, he squinted and looked like he was asleep.
"Squeak......" For a moment, Ji Xing thought that no one had found him! He entered Gao Yin's bedroom lightly, the room was dark, and he was about to scare Gao Yin.
"You're here! a little slower than I expected, and you can see that you have been wandering around the flowers all day and neglecting to practice. Unexpectedly, he stepped into Gao Yin's bedroom with his front foot, and Gao Yin's voice rang out on his back foot.
He didn't scare Gao Yin and didn't say anything, but was taken aback by Gao Yin.
As soon as Gao Yin's voice fell, the candles in the room lit up.
He walked in from the inner chamber with his robe on.
"Ah Yin. Ji Xing was dressed in red, he looked at Gao Yin with a sad face, and said aggrievedly: "You don't know that I almost fell into the hands of Ji's aunt today, and you have to be responsible for soothing my wounded heart." ”
Gao Yin walked towards the dwarf.
Tea was boiling on the low table, he slowly sat on the futon, raised his hand and poured two cups of tea, looked at Ji Xing casually and said: "What do I don't know? It's nothing more than tying you to the spring breeze, I heard that the young people there are like flowers and jade, I thought you would definitely enjoy it there!"
Ji Xing was not polite, he strode over to Gao Yin and sat down, picked up the tea and drank it.
Not to mention that his mouth is really dry at the moment.
"Ah Yin, how can you do this to me? Ji Xing was extremely dissatisfied with Gao Yin's indifferent appearance.
Gao Yin raised his eyebrows and looked at Ji Xing and said, "Are you still innocent?"
"I've always only had fun with women, and I've never done anything like that with men, so naturally I'm still innocent. Ji Xing's face did not change.
"Say, what are you looking for me?" Gao Yin said, putting down the teacup in his hand.
Ji Xing suddenly approached Gao Yin, he looked at Gao Yin for a moment and asked, "To be honest, have you ever planted it in the hands of Ji's aunt?"
Gao Yin stretched out his hand and pushed Ji Xing, he frowned with a bit of undisguised disgust on his face and said, "You stay away from me, you are full of crude incense powder." ”
"Ah Yin, you actually dislike me!" Ji Xing suddenly looked at Gao Yin with a hurt face.
"Exactly. Gao Yin said seriously, and he nodded thoughtfully.
"You haven't answered my question yet?" Ji Xing moved away from Gao Yin.
"What's the problem?" Gao Yin raised his hand to add some tea to himself.
"Have you ever planted it in the hands of Ji's aunt?" Ji Xing asked intently as he looked at Gao Yin.
Gao Yin glanced at Ji Xing, he slowly lowered his eyes and said, "I have never smeared and sneaked into someone's boudoir like you." ”
Somehow, he said this with a bit of sourness.
"Hmph!" Thinking of Ji Yu, Ji Xing snorted coldly, he stroked his chin and said in a deep voice: "I originally just wanted to tease her, but who knew that she would show her teeth and claws like this, and I almost ......"
Ji Xing said.
Gao Yin looked at him intently and asked, "Almost what?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Ji Xing's face, he quickly changed the topic, he looked at Gao Yin intently and asked, "Ah Yin, you said that I will enter the palace tomorrow to ask the King of Qi for an order, and let him give me Ji's aunt?"
"Hmph......" he said coldly, "When she enters my mansion, then see how I torture her." ”
