He wasn't completely dead. But he was dying.

His knife had slashed halfway, and the judge's pen had pierced his chest, and sharp heads emerged from his back.

His eyes were split, he glared at the judge, and when he opened his mouth, he vomited blood, as if he was very hungry, and drooled.

The judge smiled strangely and said, "You three brothers are really alike, they all like to open their mouths before they die, and this mouth, my eyes are very uncomfortable, and I want to rub them." It really dirty! Why, you want to scold me, you want to stare at me, you want to curse me? It's okay, you can keep watching, look at my lovely face, I'm still alive, I'm alive and well, no matter how much you want me to die, I can't die—— hmm. ”

He rubbed his eyes, "What's that?" he suddenly got a little angry, "What are you? The three of you have bounced something in my face several times, are you trying to ruin my face? Damn - ——!

Not only the head, but also the entire shaft of the pen stretched outward, from a small flower with sharp and fine teeth, the petals cracked outward, and turned into a long, narrow flower with teeth and claws, showing off its might, and twisting the human chest and abdomen into pieces and blood gushing. It breathes in the blood and is thrillingly high.

Wu Dao shook violently, and the huge hole in his body from his chest to his abdomen made his eyes completely darken, and he lowered his head as if he was wilting, motionless.

Zhao Ji looked around, and the whole room seemed to be dyed the color of the judge's clothes, gray-white and stained with a dazzling reddish brown.

The judge took a step closer, and Zhao Ji subconsciously blocked in front of Liu Anshi.

The judge smiled, walked up to him, and said, "You want to protect him?

Zhao Ji said: "I can't learn. ”

The judge sneered, "Oh, yes. You can't practice martial arts...... What, that's just an excuse. Do you want to learn? I can teach you by hand. ”

The muscles on Zhao Ji's face moved slightly.

The judge said, "I really like the way you look scared. ”

Zhao Ji narrowed his eyes and said, "Then I'm sorry, you can't see it." ”

He heard the judge laugh, "What do you say?"

"If you weren't injured. Zhao Ji said, "Then there will always be the possibility of falling." ”

The judge sighed with pity: "Yes, I am wounded, and the hook is detached from the knife and embedded in my back, and it is still bleeding." But the doctrine that was applied to them was of no use to me. I'm more than enough to deal with the two of you. Get out of the way, little prince, let me kill him and let me take you away. ”

Blood dripped on the ground behind him, a small puddle. He stretched out his hand to push Zhao Ji away, but Zhao Ji knocked his hand off, so he smiled, and his expression gradually became fierce, "Get out of the way, little prince, while I don't want to kill you yet." ”

"Don't worry, wait a little longer. Zhao Ji stared at his eyes, gritted his teeth and smiled.

"Wait, how long can I wait for you?"

The large area of blood around the judge's eyes was so thick that it could not be dissolved, like his pen that had eaten human blood, and wanted to drag people into the boundless darkness.

Zhao Ji thought to himself, I don't want to be taken away by such a person.

He said hatefully, "Wait until you die." ”

"But, little prince. "I've already died for you once, don't you remember?"

Zhao Ji was stunned and said, "What?"

The judge said quietly, "Look at my face—my lovely face. Don't you remember?"

Zhao Ji snorted heavily, unfurled a disgusted smile, and said, "Do you think I will believe in your hallucination?"

When the judge smiled, his lips seemed to be dripping blood.

— dripping onto his hands.

The judge also seemed to be stunned for a moment, and looked down to see that it was indeed his own blood. He touched his nose and confirmed that it was true.

He just wanted to ask "what's going on", but saw Zhao Ji looking at him, tilting his head and grinning, but he lost a smile in his eyes, and his smile was a little miserable and a little ugly.

Then the judge took a sip and vomited a large mouthful of blood. Immediately after, blood gushed out from his eyes, ears, and nose like a river of sand rolling on turbid waves, and black blood clots were mixed in it, as if the abrupt and dazzling color patches on his clothes.

"How ......"

The judge's words were choked in his throat and drowned in blood.

Zhao Ji patted him on the shoulder, aimed at his chest and pushed him violently, blood spurting like flowers.

"There are times when you can't speak. Then you rest, I'll tell you. Zhao Ji said in a calm tone and said slowly, "It may sound a little incredible, but Uncle Liu and I know that you will come." Don't forget, I am the prince of the dynasty, the younger brother of the current emperor, the person who protects me, even if there is one less general Wang, after I really have an accident, there is no shortage of people to protect me. Yes, I do, but you followed me for too long and forgot about it. They were always on call, but I managed to escape every time, and that's it. You might try it, try to move a hair of mine, and guess who, from where, and in what way will kill you?"

Blood flowed from the judge's eyes, dripping down to his chin.

"You ......"

"Try it, don't worry. Zhao Ji smiled, bit his lower lip, grabbed his hand and touched his face.

"His Royal Highness King Duan. Liu Anshi gasped, "Be careful." ”

Zhao Ji said lightly: "It's okay." He doesn't have the strength to do that, unless it's a counterfeit drug. ”

The judge's hands trembled. He was about to get the judge's pen, but his hands were too weak to pick it up. He opened his mouth in surprise and looked at him. Blood dripped to the ground.

"-Nobody, isn't it?" Zhao Ji smiled, "No one needs to come to save me, because you're going to die, and they don't need to show up." Do you want to know why you died?"

The judge nodded vigorously.

"Speak. Zhao Ji said, "I can't hear it." ”

"Think—" As soon as the judge said from his throat, a large mass of fishy sweet blood rolled out, blacker, thicker, and more coagulated than the blood that had been sprayed before, almost half-fluid and half-solid, making people think that they had vomited out their internal organs at first sight. But it's not bad. With so much blood gulping out, how much is left in a person's body?

Zhao Ji smiled: "Since you want to hear it, then I'll say it." Before you came, I had prepared the medicine, ground it into powder, and let Wu Jian, Wu Dao, and Wu Hook take it with me. Wu Jian didn't believe that he couldn't beat you, so he didn't take it at all, but he died. Wu Dao was on guard, and after you defeated him, he was already in despair, and took the medicine, allowing the medicine to enter the bloodstream, and every drop of blood was poisonous, and then sprayed into your eyes. ”

The judge vomited blood and looked at him incredulously. He raised his hand tremblingly, and rubbed his eyes tremblingly, rubbing blood and rouge together.

Zhao Ji asked him softly: "Is it painful?" Is it eye pain, or body pain?"

The judge whimpered in pain.

"I'm not done yet. As for Wu Hook—" Zhao Ji laughed, "he applied the medicine to the hook and hooked it on your back, which is deadly." The story of Wu Dao and Wu Jian was made up by me to lie to you. ”

The judge didn't expect to be put on a show like this. He seemed to be lost and asked him with all his might, "How could you ...... How can you poison ......?"

Zhao Ji smiled: "This is your poison, what does it have to do with me?"

"I didn't. The judge said, "I just want to ......."

"Just want to kill me. Right?" Zhao Ji said, "So you didn't take the poison my brother gave you, you don't know what it is." But what you don't know, it ends up killing you. Guess why I have such a thing?"

All that answered him was the blood of the judge's mouth. He bled like his brother Zhao Ji had seen, and the current Emperor Zhezong was so bloodied and convulsed after being poisoned.

He saw the judge caressing his nose incessantly, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.

He came to his most vulnerable moment, perhaps.

It's not going to lie at this time.

He paused for a moment and said to himself, "Because he used this thing to lay his hands on the saint." I know it's something like this. Speaking of this, Zhao Ji's smile was a little unbearable. After he finished speaking, he sighed and shivered as if he were cold.

His smile reminded the judge of Zhao Li. It's just that Zhao Yan is colder and more natural, as if nothing can touch him.

But Zhao Ji, what touched him?

He didn't know. He realized that he was on the verge of death, and small silvery-white flickering particles poured up around his vision, and what he could see became narrower and darker.

"I ask you......" he struggled, coughing up blood.

You ask. Zhao Ji said.

"Why...... You...... They ......"

Zhao Ji said: "Why don't I save them? Why do I want them to die? Yes? Because, my guards only protect me, but I want to protect Uncle Liu." Their lives and deaths are not in my hands. Zhao Ji closed his eyes, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

The judge was silent. Zhao Ji opened his eyes and looked at his miserable white and bright red face. He already looked lifeless, but now that he was dying, he could only guess that he still had a trace of breath.

The judge wanted to speak and stopped, but Zhao Jicheng immediately interrupted him in fear.

"You still have a little time left, probably the last little time of your life. Zhao Ji said, "I'll let you out of this house now, if you let you go, do you want to try, how far can you go?"

As he spoke, he suddenly felt a hint of emotion.

"I told you to get out of here. Zhao Ji raised his voice.

He looked at the judge's staggering back with a hook stuck in his back. He watched him walk to the door, and suddenly asked tentatively, "Fourth brother." ”

The judge paused to look back at him, but the mere pause consumed most of his remaining strength.

Seeing that he had a reaction, Zhao Ji repeated again, "Fourth brother." Is that you?"

The judge seemed to have made a great deal of determination, and his dead man's motionless body clicked forward, which was his horrible breathing pattern, and his shoulders trembled like teeth, and one who did not know the reason might think he was having a seizure.

He staccatolate, syllables shattered and burst out of the phrase: "No ......"

When he said this, he used a lot of force, and the hook behind him was a little deeper, and then embedded a little more, and the blood trickled down, Zhao Ji watched the blood flow down, but halfway through, it was solidified on his body and no longer flowed down, and gradually disappeared in the folds of his dark clothes, as if frozen into ice.

This poison is so fierce. Zhao Ji thought to himself.

Liu Anshi said: "Fourth brother?......" He cautiously searched for the memories in his mind from afar, until more than ten years ago, and then asked word by word, uncertainly: "His Royal Highness King Duan is talking about the fourth son of the first emperor, Zhao Shen, the king of praise?"

Zhao Ji nodded with a slightly sad expression and said in a low voice: "Yes." Precisely. I've been skeptical for a long time, and I'm not really sure until now. It's that he's not wrong. ”

Liu Anshi said: "But His Royal Highness King Duan, His Royal Highness King Bao has died of illness when he was a teenager, is there another secret in this?"

"Uncle Liu, you forgot. Zhao Ji corrected, "You may also know about this matter, but you have been claiming that you are dying early and so on, and over time you have forgotten the facts, the prince who does not matter, and the matter that does not matter, you don't need to go to hearsay anymore." But I was still young, and what I remembered at the beginning was what it was. The fourth brother got sick, but he didn't die...... He's just missing. ”

He hadn't used that title for a long, long time.

The fourth brother has not been heard from for more than ten years.

"It was the year my master broke into the palace. Zhao Ji said, "The reason why he was heavily fined was also because of the disappearance of the fourth brother, which made him angry." However, the final victim is still the fourth brother who was taken captive. ”

"How did you find out, Your Highness King Duan?"

Zhao Ji said--his voice suddenly lost its previous calmness, restraint, forbearance-

Because every word he said and every action he did was like the fourth brother. ”

"I'm going to take you. ”

The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of which is different, and Zhao Shen's proudest specialty is that he is good-looking, and nothing else. At the same time, Zhao Ji will be praised by his father: Zhao Ji loves to read at a young age, and he will become a great weapon in the future! No talent is virtue.

However, Zhao Shen doesn't like to play with the beautiful princess, he doesn't look for his own maid when he goes out to play, he wants to find a beautiful boy of the same age to go with him, with great fanfare, and he changes people again in three days. After I went out, I stayed in the same room again, and I don't know how many strange noises I made all night. The effect is bad. Several of his brothers refused to go with him, and when they saw him, they pointed at him and avoided him. It's not that he doesn't feel out of place, it's just that he seems to take it too seriously. It's not that a beautiful little boy can't play, and when he's tired of playing, he still has the gentle embrace of a woman. It's just that Zhao Shen seems to be too fond of this, and too public. Then only five-year-old Zhao Ji was willing to talk to him.

Zhao Shen liked to pull out the book in Zhao Ji's hand and said to him: "Go, go and bow!"

Perhaps because he was born beautifully, Zhao Shen is always full of drama when he speaks, full of emotion, and a little contrived. His high tone made several princes passing by look at him blankly.

Zhao Ji was so anxious to grab it, so Zhao Shen carried the book up to the point that he couldn't jump up and grab it, and said, "Don't read it, what's so good about the book! I'll test you, where did you see it just now?"

Zhao Ji said: "The cicadas of the West Continent sing——"

"West...... What the...... Oh, what about the next sentence?"

Zhao Ji did not hesitate: "Nanguan Ke thinks about invasion!"

"Ah, yes. ”

Wow, awesome. Zhao Shen muttered, "Shouldn't this age be to look at the bright moonlight in front of the bed", touched his nose, returned the book to him stupidly, and gave him a box of pastries. Every time he saw Zhao Ji, he gave him a box of pastries.

Zhao Ji said: "Why do you always play with me?"

Zhao Shen said: "Because I'm a monster, they don't want to play with me, only you and Zhao Yan are willing to ignore me." Do you think I'm a monster too?"

Zhao Ji said: "No. Fourth brother, you are the little prince, and I am also the little prince. We are all the same, little princes. ”

Zhao Shen smiled and said, "Then are you willing to play with me?" ”

Zhao Ji thought hard for a while and said, "If you don't rob me of something, I'll play with you!"

Zhao Shen said: "That's good." I'll take you to a place where you can read books and juju, and there are a lot of scenery to see, okay?"

Zhao Ji said: "Okay! Wait until I finish reading this book." ”

"Good. I'll take you with me then. ”

Zhao Ji had a careful plan at a young age, Zhao Shen came to him every time and asked him if he had finished reading the book, and he said that he hadn't.

Before he could finish reading it, Zhao Shen went crazy.

Zhao Shen and the beautiful boy walking on the street, this is not a strange thing, people have long been accustomed to seeing it. God knows, everyone knows, only the father doesn't know. When Emperor Shenzong broke through the matter, he was kissing a male prostitute on the street as if no one was around.

That's amazing. Emperor Shenzong was almost mad, Tie Qing immediately returned to the palace with a blue face, and ordered him to be arrested and imprisoned, so that the best Tai in the palace could heal his brain, it didn't matter if he died, any means could be used, as long as he was restored to normal.

After that, when Zhao Ji passed by an abandoned house, he always heard Zhao Shen's screams. He went to ask Zhao what this was, and Zhao shook his head, saying that it sounded like torture. He went to ask Zhao Tong again - he didn't dare to ask Zhao Li, Zhao Tong listened with relish and was very excited.

Zhang Dian passed by and scolded them, and several people stepped forward to drive them away.

"You're going to kill him!" Zhao said angrily.

Zhang Dian said: "If you can't cure madness, you can't be an emperor." ”

They didn't understand at the time, and Zhao Ji and Zhao Ji walked away half angrily and half frightened.

Only Zhao Yan asked with great interest: "If you become an emperor, can you kill people?"

Zhang Dian said: "A few little highnesses, you must not say this kind of thing to others!"

A few months later, Zhao Shen was released, which was also equivalent to being abandoned.

The disease was not cured, but the man went mad.

But after all, he is a little prince, he is a dragon vein, and he is underage, so it is not easy to drive him out of the palace, so he can only run around the palace like crazy.

Zhao Ji was unbearable. Zhao Shen always came to Zhao Ji with a big box of pastries, and threatened to take him away, which scared Zhao Ji to cry, saying, I don't like sweets. This is good, what messy food and can't be eaten are brought over, Zhao Ji often met Zhao Shen reported a large ball of branches running towards him, put it in front of him, and then picked him up and was about to run. Zhao Ji often woke up at night and saw Zhao Shen looking at him at the window. He ran to tell Father-in-law Song, who was so frightened that he hurriedly called someone to report to him, and in the end he could only install a curtain in the window, but he couldn't do it.

After being stopped repeatedly, Zhao Shen seemed to be a little more normal. Occasionally, he would be quiet and weep silently.

So everyone thought he might be normal.

However, soon, Fei Wei broke into the palace, causing chaos, according to the palace people who had last seen Zhao Shen, he was crying alone by the lake at that time, it was very quiet, so he didn't bother him, who knew that this kind of thing happened.

However, everyone seemed to be relieved and sent away a Tai Sui Ye, cheering in their hearts.

In the middle of the past few years, no one has sent Zhao Ji to eat, and he doesn't need it, he can buy it himself. It's just that recently he started dreaming again, dreaming of the person at the window, he guessed that he dreamed of Zhao Shen, but how did he become so terrifying?

Every time he had this dream, he wanted to ask him what was going on, but he couldn't. Fortunately, he didn't ask, he didn't want to get into the truth too early.

According to him, he was taken away by someone, and after a series of transformations that inhuman and non-human beings could bear, he was turned into a killing machine.

His eyes were no longer vibrant, his beauty was hidden in a terrible pale and blood-red, and the only remaining reason and love of beauty were distorted, making him unapproachable, not like a living person.

The whole person seems to have been washed, leaving only the shell and the strange inside.

What's even more terrifying is that he returned to the palace where he once lived, and he could not be the master.

Instead, as Zhao Li's subordinates, one of Zhao Li's killing tools.

However, Zhao Tong was also a little crazy.

I'm not much better, and I'm going crazy.

Are they going crazy?

Zhao Ji said: "I admit my mistake. ”

The judge was stunned for a moment.

Liu Anshi also turned his head to look at him, looking thoughtful.

"I'm such a fool, I'm crazy to say that kind of thing, I would think you're my fourth brother. He sneered, "Get out of here, unless you want to die now." I'll give you a chance to take one last look at the sky of Bianjing. I don't know you. ”

The judge then turned around and walked out again.

One, two, three, four.

He walked to the fifth step and reached the door.

The snow-white light pierced his eyes, and he blinked in a daze. The world is spinning. A swirl of snow white.

The wind was bitter, like a sword.

When the cold wind blew, he seemed to leak air, leaking out the last bit of life.

At the tenth step, he remembered the person he loved so much, and the smile had fine lines, and the texture was like the tail fin of a fish. He would also call him Xianggong. He died more than a dozen years ago.

At the fifteenth step, the sound of the cold wind became louder, and the breathing of the person behind him was no longer clear. He was almost unable to hear his own faint breathing, which was on the verge of death. He's dying every second.

He remembered the distant past, when several princes frolicked together. At that time they had not noticed anything different about him, and they had not even been educated in etiquette, and they often fought and rolled together. Zhao Ji was also not born. Soon after Zhao Ji was born, he was isolated.

Zhao Ji is really a lovely younger brother, and he may be able to live a better life alone. He survived.

It's just that he's too lonely and miserable.

Just put it down.

Towards the end of life.

The blood is no longer shed.

His blood had clotted.

Suddenly, Zhao Ji said loudly: "How can you compare to my fourth brother? My fourth brother, he is cute, sincere, and handsome...... Still, it's too normal to be a more normal person. He didn't have a good time in this life. I hope that in the next life, he can live happily and peacefully, and no one will treat him as a monster. ”

In the end, Zhao Ji cried bitterly.

A second of crying was fine, at least he shed tears for himself.

Zhao Shen thought to himself.

He died laughing, if Zhao Ji could see his smile, he would find that his smile was still the familiar Zhao Shen back then.

There is no difference.

As he fell, a man approached him, crouched down in front of him, and tested his breath.

"Ah, he's dead. Ye Langxing said, "Are you okay?"

Zhao Ji walked over, his eyes were red, and he smiled at him: "It's okay." It's just a killer. ”
