Phoenix's illness is getting worse. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Her body was full of festers, slowly spreading from the size of her palm. Now there is no place for us in the Yu Palace, but fortunately, the Luoxiang Mountain that Yuan He once built for me here has become our only haven at this time, and they are unwilling to let us go so simply. And since Yuan Jue entered the city, Xu is court has too many things to do, and he has not made a decision on the matter of the courtiers admonishing me to kill me. It has been two days since the day when the monarch's seal was handed over to him in front of the main hall, these two days, Luoxiang Mountain has rarely become a pure land in this Yu Palace, in this Yu Palace that has become disturbed by the critical time of changing the dynasty to welcome the new monarch's succession, no one cares, no one disturbs.
It wasn't until I personally experienced the rights and wrongs in the court that I finally understood how much he supported me in the days when I was hiding behind Won Hyuk, and I don't know where he is now.
I brought the phoenix back to Luoxiang Mountain and let her live in the warm pavilion, thinking that they would send someone to strictly guard my Luoxiang Mountain, but not only did this not happen, but even the former Sun Yue Zhou Fang was transferred. On this empty mountain, the number of guards sent to patrol every day has also been greatly reduced, and it has become cleaner.
And since beating me and coaxing the phoenix to come back here, the phoenix has not only not improved, but has become worse, her consciousness is even less sober, and she is in a trance and suffers from gains and losses, and she can't bear the result of the gradual loss of divine power from her, which makes her have to be trapped here and powerless, to watch the two of us suffer from this, and the lives of ordinary people who were once despised by her once despised threatened with their lives.
I believe that Jiang Yan's death was not as indifferent as the phoenix appeared, and perhaps at the moment of Jiang Yan's death, the phoenix did not realize what Jiang Yan's death represented. But until this time, even if she never said it explicitly, I also understood the loss in her heart, but unfortunately she is a phoenix, she is used to being high, and she looks down on everything that has nothing to do with the world, how can she still remember what it was like to be loved.
Phoenix, who used to be extremely indifferent to everything, always boasted of seeing all the things in the world, ignoring the sorrows of mortals' life and death, and had long lost the feelings of the first god. Now that she has lost her divine power, she is slowly becoming a person like the mortal she once looked down on, feeling threatened and helpless, isn't it also the punishment of God from God?
My body also began to appear abnormal, although not as serious as the phoenix, just a few small red spots, often very itchy, scratching and breaking, and then a small ulcer...... And for what I am receiving now, I just choose to suffer in silence.
But the phoenix suddenly became serious, with a high fever that did not stop, burned in a muddle, and said all impulsive and reckless words. Her eyes began to become sluggish, but her red flame pupils were not as good as before, and she was still a little confused and desperate.
I was afraid that something would happen to her, so I hurriedly wanted to go out and find the palace people to help.
I got up and walked outside the palace, and met Xia Zhen, who had just rushed back, looked at me with an unexpected face, was startled, and asked, "Madam, why are you panicking like this, is something wrong?" ā
"Where have you been?" I don't want to ask her why she left here before, but I want to know why she came back here at this time since she left, everyone knows that something happened here, and they wish they could hide away.
"Zhen'er went to deliver something to General Yuwen just now." She lightly brought the experience she had just experienced, "But you ...... madam."
"Go, go and find Changyuan for help. The priest is very sick, you go and ask Changyuan to ask the imperial doctor to come. "At this time, the only one who can help is Chang Yuan.
"Yes." Xia Zhen nodded hurriedly, turned around and ran down the mountain.
I was so anxious in front of the palace that I listened to the movements in the phoenix room from time to time, and I was so anxious that I could fly down the mountain at this moment to see if Changyuan had come.
And I have even prepared for the worst, if Chang Yuan wants to avoid suspicion at this time and refuse Xia Zhen to help me hire a doctor. If Phoenix has any accident tonight, I'll go with her. There has never been such a desperate and dull time as now, anyway, I know that this will be the end of the way, as for the torture in the process, I really don't bother to care, it's just that sooner or later I have to die, and I don't want her to leave alone, even if I have a chance to pay her off all this on the Huangquan Road.
But Chang Yuan came and brought the Imperial Doctor, and not only that, but he also brought a person.
Xiong Lie.
From the moment I saw them off, I never thought that we would see each other again in this life. So when Xiong Li walked up to me, I didn't have time to recover and watched him stop in front of me. Xia Zhen led the Imperial Physician towards the Warm Pavilion, and Chang Yuan stood in front of me with Xiong Lie. I was amazed that they would come together.
Xiong Lie didn't mean to speak, he just stood, his body looked a lot thinner, but he was much more energetic now than when I was hiding here before. I thought maybe I should say hello to him, but I just looked at him for a long time, and I really couldn't think of the most suitable words for us at the moment, so I nodded, and just said, "It's okay." ā
Xiong Lie listened, smiled stunnedly, nodded and replied, "It's okay." ā
I turned my head to look at Chang Yuan, "Thank you." ā
"Sister......" Changyuan wanted to speak and stopped, but finally did not say the following words.
Just as he was about to say something more to Xiong Lie, he was a little curious about how he had come back here with them, wondering how his Qu Xiong was now. But before these many questions could be asked, they were suddenly disturbed by a commotion coming from the warm pavilion.
"Ahh Xia Zhen exclaimed.
I turned around and ran towards Nuan Ge, pushing the door open, Chang Yuan followed behind me, and Xiong Lie was still at the end, slowly walking over. The scene in front of me suddenly made me dumbfounded, the phoenix's eyes were red and I couldn't see the whites of the eyes, her hair was lazily hanging down, her clothes were disheveled, the blood in her mouth kept flowing down from between her teeth, and the original red clothes were stained with blood, and I couldn't see the different color, but the damp traces were shocking.
And Xia Zhen hid behind the table, trying to defend the phoenix's approach. The imperial doctor she had just brought in to treat the phoenix was now lying on the ground behind the phoenix, blood gushing outward from the deep wound on her neck, and she symbolically shook her body twice before she stopped moving.
That's when it dawned on me what was going on.
Seeing that the phoenix was about to pounce on Xia Zhen again with a strange expression, I rushed out desperately and blocked between them. Chang Yuan's reaction was one step slower than mine, and it was too late to reach out and pull me.
Yu Guang noticed that Chang Yuan had reached out and touched the knife hanging from his waist.
"Little Phoenix!" I raised my voice and tried to wake her up.
I thought that if I stood in the middle and prevented the phoenix from harming Xia Zhen, I wouldn't arouse the vigilance of others. Lest at this time, Xia Zhen and Chang Yuan feel that the existence of the phoenix is a danger.
It's just that after hearing me call her, Phoenix didn't react much, just looked sideways, and turned from staring at Xia Zhen with a pair of bloody eyes just now, to looking at me deadly. She stared at me, even narrowing her eyes slightly, very threatening.
She didn't restrain herself because her target suddenly became me, but she resented it even more.
"Sister, get out of the way." Chang Yuan realized the phoenix's hostility towards me, and whispered a warning, the knife on his waist was gradually about to come out of its sheath.
The phoenix saw it at a glance, and choked Chang Yuan at a very fast speed and knocked him away, Chang Yuan's body hit the wall and bounced up, but Xiong Lie, who had been following Chang Yuan, suddenly caught Chang Yuan, so that he would not fall to the ground at this moment. Chang Yuan came back and swung his knife forward, a phoenix is a phoenix after all, even if the divine power gradually retreats, this day and night is definitely not something that Chang Yuan and the others can easily deal with, and he pinched the blade with one hand, making Chang Yuan unable to move.
"High priest, they are only here to heal you, so why should you hurt people?" Xiong Lie suddenly let out a loud shout, which distracted the phoenix, so that Chang Yuan had a chance to pull the blade out of the phoenix's hand.
"I'm not sick!" The phoenix shouted hoarsely. "It's you mortals who are sick! Do you know who I am? Do you know that I can slaughter you all at will? ā
The voice was so great that it went straight to the nine heavens. Like a cold wind about to tear the eardrum alive, Changyuan retreated, and Xia Zhen and I hurriedly covered our ears to avoid it.
"Where did you take the little sycamore!" The phoenix still did not change its color, shouted furiously, and kept shouting, "Little Wutong! Little sycamore! Where are you, little sycamore! ā
I was blinded by her words.
Sluggishly let go of the hands covering her ears, and looked at her steadily, watching the phoenix keep wandering in the warm pavilion, calling me over and over again in anger, as if she didn't see me at all.
But I was right in front of her, how could she not see me. "Phoenix, little phoenix......"
I broke free from Xia Zhen's persuasion, stepped forward, and stood in front of the phoenix again, "Little Phoenix, don't you recognize me?" ā
The phoenix stretched out his hand and pushed me away, shouting hysterically in the warm pavilion, "Little Wutong! Where the hell did you hide the little sycamores! Give me back the little sycamore! Give it back!! ā
She doesn't remember me......
The phoenix in front of me didn't even remember that I was the little sycamore she was constantly looking for.
She only remembered the little sycamore, but she forgot me.
"Little Phoenix, I am, I am Little Sycamore." I shook off Xia Zhen, who stepped forward to support, and ran to the phoenix again, holding her arms desperately, trying to let her see me clearly, "Look at me, look at me!" Little Phoenix, I'm Little Sycamore! ā
Phoenix didn't know if she heard me, she felt it, and then slowly eased up and looked at me. Before I could explain, she suddenly grabbed me by the throat and choked me so hard that I felt like I was about to die from the lack of oxygen, and the phoenix's face began to grow hideous in my eyes. She said coldly, "You guys, where did you hide Little Wutong, did you kill her?" ā
"Sister!"
"Madame!"
Chang Yuan and Xia Zhen were shocked and wanted to come to the rescue, but the phoenix didn't give anyone a chance to get close, grabbed my throat and warned everyone present, "If you dare to take a step forward, I will kill her." ā
She didn't just talk, but even made a gesture to strangle me, forcing Changyuan and them to retreat in exchange for the phoenix letting go slightly.
Phoenix just pressed her thumb down to my throat, and I knew she could crush my throat with a little force. If I could die at her hands, it would probably be the best ending for me, and I wasn't afraid that she would kill me. It's just that when she eased the strength of her thumb a little, she touched the white yarn on my neck that was still wrapped around my neck due to being held hostage by Gong Hui in the previous time, and she was stunned for a moment.
Chang Yuan was always vigilant and held his breath.
At this time, the phoenix suddenly let go of her hand, this sudden movement, obviously she herself was also frightened, she seemed to have just woken up from a dream, looking at the white veil wrapped around my neck, the memory seemed to be slowly waking up. "Little Sycamore......
It turned out that when she saw my injuries at that time, she remembered what we had experienced together at that time.
Just thinking about what would happen to her next, who knew that she slowly leaned over, took me in front of her, and patted me lightly on the shoulder, she only remembered that I was held hostage by Gong Hui at that time, and the short knife against my neck slowly made blood marks, she was still comforting me, and whispered while patting my shoulder, "Don't be afraid, little Wutong, don't be afraid...... I'm here, I'm here......"
After thinking of me, she began to calm down, from a pair of angry eyes filled with blood to extremely red, to gradually ease, she was afraid of scaring me, carefully comforting me who had finally found me, slowly, her eyes began to return to their original appearance, except for the red in the depths of her pupils, the murderous aura in the whites of her eyes slowly receded.
"Go and pull the doctor out and see if there is anything else to save." Xiong Lie said to Chang Yuan.
Chang Yuan was just staring at Phoenix's every move, but he didn't expect her to suddenly have such a big contrast, and he was also a little suspicious. After listening to Xiong Lie's words, he carefully walked behind us, withdrew the knife, dragged the two arms of the imperial doctor, and pulled him out.
When Changyuan returned, he only called Xia Zhen out.
Phoenix didn't care about all of this, she didn't care about what was going on around her, she just cared about me being protected by her. It's like the night I returned to the front hall.
Xiong Lie had been standing outside the door, watching quietly.
I looked over the shoulder of the phoenix, Xiong Lie's gaze was extremely deep, I chuckled at him to show that I was okay, I understood, especially after Changyuan dragged the imperial doctor out, there were only two people in this warm pavilion, me and the phoenix, he chose to stay and watch silently when he was not sure if the phoenix would go crazy again. Perhaps, it is also a tacit understanding, even if he has just escaped from the ghost gate now, he still watches silently just in case.
In this world, there is no eternal lover, let alone eternal enemy. (To be continued.) )
