Chapter 20: The Great Tribulation

On the edge of the cliff, Shangguan Wan'er knelt on the ground weakly, tears running down Shangguan Wan'er's pretty face.

The height of the tsunami just reached the height of the peak, and the cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks raised by Shangguan Wan'er and Fang Yi at the peak were all safe and sound, and they were not swept away by the tsunami.

At the last moment, Fang Yi decided to sacrifice himself to fight to the death and threw Wu Zetian to the top.

Maybe a person will stimulate his endless potential at the moment of life and death, Fang Yi, who struggles to lift dozens of catties on weekdays, actually lifted Wu Zetian and threw it to the top.

The cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks at the top seemed to be moved by Fang Yi, and they all crowded together at the location of Wu Zetian's landing point, acting as animal meat cushions.

Wu Zetian landed at the top unharmed.

It was also after hearing Shangguan Wan'er's hysterical shouts that Wu Zetian realized what was happening.

When Wu Zetian opened his eyes in the air, all that came into Wu Zetian's eyes was Fang Yi's resolute face and fearless smile.

This smile is destined to be a smile that Wu Zetian will never be able to break for the rest of his life.

Fang Yi smiled so calmly, so calmly, so heroically.

Wu Zetian never even thought that a man would smile so well.

As the waves poured into the bottomless pit, Fang Yi's figure disappeared from Wu Zetian's sight.

At this moment, even in the face of life and death choices, Wu Zetian, who never shed tears even in the face of life and death decisions, even Wu Zetian, who endured countless abuses in order to compete for the throne, quietly slipped down the two lines of tears.

Wu Zetian sat on the edge of the cliff in a daze, looked at Shangguan Wan'er, who was lost and depressed, looked at the big pit filled with seawater, and looked at the deserted island washed away by the tsunami.

The mood is indescribable.

The atmosphere is unusually dull.

People go to the desert island and are cool, and now Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er have nothing.

As the tsunami receded, cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks also began to look for a way down the cliff, and soon only Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er were left on the cliffside.

Wu Zetian moved to Shangguan Wan'er's side and gently hugged this girl who was ten years younger than himself into his arms: "Wan'er...... Don't cry anymore......"

"Your Majesty!"

Shangguan Wan'er threw herself into Wu Zetian's arms and cried loudly, because of crying for a long time, Shangguan Wan'er's voice was already extremely hoarse.

Wu Zetian is an iron-blooded empress, and what she is not good at is comforting people.

Wu Zetian didn't know what he should do anymore except for constantly patting Shangguan Wan'er's back.

At this moment, Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er are not like monarchs and ministers, but they are like a pair of sisters, a pair of sisters who have lost their beloved for the rest of their lives.

Fang Yi ...... He's a good guy...... I once regarded him as a pillar of the country, but God was jealous of talent...... If I hadn't dragged you down, it wouldn't have come to ......"

Wu Zetian also felt endless regret at this time.

If Fang Yi didn't have so many doubts when he ran away at the beginning, if he was careful not to sprain his foot when he ran away.

This tragedy would never have happened.

"Your Majesty......"

Shangguan Wan'er's tears kept dripping on the ground.

Wu Zetian looked up at the sky with a blank face, the heavy rain had stopped, the tsunami had receded, and the entire island had returned to its previous scene, except for Fang Yi, who was no longer there.

Wu Zetian sighed softly: "Wan'er, don't cry, there are many forests on this mountain, Fang Yi is likely to be swept away by the waves and blocked by the trees, as the so-called Ji people have their own heavenly appearance, how can people who are entrusted by heaven die easily?" Maybe we can find Fang Yi along this mountain, if Fang Yi is really blocked by the forest, he must be in a state of drowning at this moment, and he needs someone to help! ”

Shangguan Wan'er raised her head suddenly: "Yes!" Your Majesty, you are right! Brother Fang Yi won't die so easily! We searched along the way in the direction of the receding waves, and we will definitely be able to find Brother Fang Yi! ”

“……”

Wu Zetian was silent.

In fact, Wu Zetian said this, he didn't believe it, how could anyone be swept away by the waves and still be able to survive on the island?

The reason why Wu Zetian said this is to let Shangguan Wan'er recover, regain confidence, exaggerate hope, and increase confidence!

Although he is suspected of deceiving Shangguan Wan'er, as long as he can make Shangguan Wan'er regain his strength, he will deceive......

Shangguan Wan'er supported Wu Zetian and looked for a way down the mountain in the direction where the cows, sheep, chickens and ducks left.

Pitch black, endless pitch black......

On a large road, a large truck came at a gallop.

Fang Yi, who was walking on the sidewalk, and a handsome-looking girl were holding hands and crossing the road together.

Neither of them expected that a large truck would run a red light.

With a sharp sound of car tires rubbing.

Fang Yi stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

The girl who was holding hands with Fang Yi a few seconds ago and talking and laughing has fallen in a pool of blood at this moment.

Raindrops began to fall from the sky.

The raindrops converged on Fang Yi's face into streams and fell to the ground.

Fang Yi looked at this scene blankly, his face full of sluggishness.

It all happened so suddenly, like a dream.

If it weren't for the aching heart and the bone-chilling rain, Fang Yi would have even suspected that it was just a dream, or just a brief hallucination of his own appearance.

"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry...... Although I know you won't forgive me...... But...... I'm really sorry ......."

The truck driver knelt down towards Fang Yi and the girl in the pool of blood, and kept repenting.

Fang Yi knelt on the ground beside the girl in a daze.

The right hand caresses the girl's cheek.

This familiar cheek is so strange at this moment.

Whether it was the heat of the blood or the residual body temperature of the girl, it was in strong contrast with the cold rain in the air.

She ...... Is she asleep......" Fang Yi turned his head and looked at the big truck driver blankly.

"This ......" The truck driver was silent, and he didn't know how to answer Fang Yi's question for a while.

"Yuanyuan...... Are you asleep? Don't sleep on the ground, it's raining, it's cold on the ground...... Come back to school with me...... Yuanyuan...... Don't be mischievous......" Fang Yi quietly looked at the girl in the pool of blood and laughed stupidly.

"Alas! This sad thing...... I guess this boy is crazy......"

"yes...... Anyone who encounters this kind of thing will not feel good...... However, that's all, this boy is actually crazy and stupid, and this boy's mental ability to bear it is too poor, right? I can't accept the reality and go crazy...... Today's young people, how can they be like us before, not to mention that their beloved is gone, even if their parents are gone, they have to carry a gun on their backs to continue to defend their families and the country! ”

"Come on, let's go, let me post a Weibo, the girl died in a car accident, her boyfriend couldn't bear the blow, and he went crazy on the spot! Well...... It will definitely become a hot search topic in the past few days! ”

"Hey! Weibo, you're too much, right? Do you still have a conscience? Why are you still stunned? Call an ambulance! Maybe the girl was just in a coma or in shock? The ambulance came and there was help! ”

"Don't you have a cell phone yourself? Why don't you call yourself? Get out of the way, pretend! ”

At the scene of the car accident, passers-by talked a lot, either sympathetic, indifferent, or put on a show.

Fang Yi turned his head and looked at the truck driver stupidly: "Listen...... Do you hear her talking? ”

"Ah......h

The driver of the big truck was dumbfounded.

This girl has already been killed by herself, wouldn't it be haunted if she could still talk?

But because of the guilt and self-blame in his heart, the truck driver couldn't bear to speak straight, and looked at Fang Yi helplessly, with an embarrassed expression on his face.

She said...... She's tired...... Want to sleep......" Fang Yi laughed stupidly.

"Young man! This girl is dead! ”

"No...... She's not dead! She just told me she was tired and wanted to sleep! ”

"She's dead!"

"Nope! She's not dead! Fang Yi roared loudly, shaking the girl's slender arm as if he was crazy, "Yuanyuan, you speak!" Hurry up and tell them that you're just tired, you're not dead! Yuanyuan, I beg you, you get up and tell them! ”

She ...... It's already dead......" The truck driver sighed helplessly, and finally decided to tell Fang Yi the facts.

"No!" Fang Yi roared hysterically, "Yuanyuan! Yuanyuan!! ”

……

Shangguan Wan'er, who was supporting Wu Zetian to find Fang Yi, wiped the sweat from her forehead.

After the previous death match, coupled with supporting Wu Zetian all the way up the mountain, even a strange woman like Shangguan Wan'er, who is both civil and military, felt that her physical strength was seriously overdrawn at this moment.

Wu Zetian saw the pain in his eyes, and couldn't help but gently pat Shangguan Wan'er's shoulder: "Wan'er...... Stop and rest for a while......"

"Your Majesty, why don't you be placed here first, and Wan'er will go to find Brother Fang Yi alone?"

Wu Zetian looked around worriedly.

At this point in time, it has begun to be caged at night, who knows if there will be any poisonous insects and beasts that haunt at night on this island, and now Shangguan Wan'er's physical strength is seriously overdrawn, if Shangguan Wan'er encounters these poisonous insects and beasts alone, then she will be the only one left on this island!

"Forget it...... I'd better look for Fang Yi with you......" Wu Zetian sighed helplessly.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er's eyes lit up, and at that moment, the two of them seemed to hear Fang Yi's shout.

"It's Brother Fang Yi!" Shangguan Wan'er's eyes flashed with a light of hope.

If Shangguan Wan'er was the only one who heard it, it might just be that Shangguan Wan'er was too concerned about Fang Yi and had hallucinations.

But Wu Zetian also heard it, this is not an illusion, there is no reason why two people would have the same hallucination at the same time!

"Over there! Fast! Wan'er! Over there! ”

Wu Zetian also confirmed through Shangguan Wan'er's reaction that it was not he hallucinating, it was indeed Fang Yi's shout just now.

"Quick, Your Majesty! Let's go! ”

The two women excitedly staggered in the direction of the previous shout.
