Chapter 242: Two Souls
Jiang Yinglou couldn't beat Gu Hengzhou when his limbs were healthy, and he couldn't beat him when he had one hand.
Within three rounds, Jiang Yinglou was picked on the shoulder by Gu Hengzhou's shot, and he couldn't get up from lying on the ground.
Gu Hengzhou didn't want his life, and asked the officers and soldiers who followed him to tie him up.
The person who should have died in the prison of Dali Temple appeared in this kind of place, and it can still be found out in the end.
Jiang Yinglou was arrested, Gu Hengzhou picked up Shen Bai, his face was not good, and the evil qi around his body kept coming out, Shen Bai was weak-hearted, and obediently sent his wrist to him, and whispered: "I didn't struggle at all when they tied me up, my wrist was just strangled twice, and even the skin was not worn out, Brother Gu, I really didn't mess around this time." ”
Gu Hengzhou pursed his lips and said nothing.
Out of the meditation room, Lujian hugged Zhang Jun and cried.
Zhang Jun was holding Gu Shaoyin in his arms, his expression was very light, and when he saw Gu Hengzhou walking out with Shen Bai in his arms, he immediately walked over with Gu Shaoyin in his arms.
Zhang Jun had a lot of bruises on his face, and he was beaten very lightly.
Jiang Yinglou should have just wanted to take Gu Shaoyin away at first, but he didn't expect Zhang Jun to find out, and he was more courageous than ordinary children, so he chased after him and simply arrested him.
Shen Bai glanced at his hand, his right hand was wrapped in a silk handkerchief, and most of it was soaked in blood, and it should have been his fingers in the purse before.
The pain of a severed finger is very bearable, but such a half-old child can keep silent, which is really unusual.
Shen Bai gasped for him, took out his purse and handed it to Lu Jian, and said, "Hurry up and let someone take him back to the Gongfu Mansion to let the imperial doctor help take a look, if he has time, maybe he can pick it up." ”
Green tip responded, Gu Hengzhou found two people to escort them back, and before leaving, Shen Bai hinted that Gu Hengzhou praised Zhang Jun.
A shy smile flashed on the child's tense face, as if it was a happy thing to be able to exchange a severed finger for a compliment from Gu Hengzhou.
Coming out of the Taoist temple, it was already completely dark, Gu Hengzhou was not in a hurry to take Shen Bai back to Hanjing, but took her to Zhouxian County to find a doctor first, and asked the doctor to carefully examine her body to make sure that she was not injured.
After the inspection, Gu Hengzhou took Shen Bai to a nearby inn.
There are still many empty rooms in the inn, and Gu Hengzhou only needs one.
Neither of them was on official business, but they spent the night outside, which felt quite novel.
These days, Shen Bai's taste is light and the amount of food is small, Gu Hengzhou only ordered four dishes, and after eating, Shen Bai lay on the bed, even if he heard Gu Hengzhou ask someone to bring hot water, he didn't want to move.
Anyway, Brother Gu has seen everything that should be watched and what shouldn't be watched, and there is nothing to be shy about.
Shen Bai waited for Gu Hengzhou to come over and toss, but Gu Hengzhou didn't strip her clean and carry her into the bathtub like before, but sat on the edge of the bed and leaned over to kiss her.
His movements were full of pity, quite gentle, and Shen Bai also endured it obediently.
But after not seeing Gu Hengzhou leave for a long time, and his hand was still climbing up along his waist, Shen Bai faintly sensed that something was wrong, pushed Gu Hengzhou away, gasped and asked, "Brother Gu, what do you want to do?" ”
The candlelight was dim, Gu Hengzhou's face was covered with heavy shadows, and the desire in his eyes was surging with desire, more fierce than ever, and there was no sign of restraint.
Shen Bai was a little frightened, shrunk his neck, and reminded in a low voice: "Brother Gu, we are about to get married in less than half a month, don't you have to wait until the wedding night to do this?" ”
She has always been unruly, and after she was reborn, she tempted him to do many things that were out of order, and he always kept his sanity sober.
It's a bit strange that I'm about to get married, but I want to make an exception.
And this location is really not romantic at all.
Gu Hengzhou clasped the back of her head, his voice was hoarse, and said, "You scared me." ”
As he spoke, he dropped another delicate and gentle kiss.
Shen Bai felt his uneasiness, swallowed all the words that came to his mouth, and hugged his neck.
In fact, she is also quite afraid, afraid that after living two lives, she will look forward to the end, but she will not be able to give herself to him completely.
Even if the timing is not right, the place is not right, she doesn't care so much.
The two of them have also been husband and wife in Reimeng, and they are no strangers, but when it comes to this kind of time, there are still tensions and mistakes, but then they don't care so much.
The hot water brought up was useless when it was cold, and Gu Hengzhou went downstairs in the middle of the night to boil the hot water himself and brought it up.
Shen Bai's energy was exhausted, he slept very deeply, and when he woke up again, he was already lying on the bed in Shuyunyuan, with the green tip guarding the bedside, and his eyes were red and swollen from crying.
"What's the matter, crying like this, Zhang Jun's fingers are not connected?" Shen Bai asked lazily, his voice was hoarse, and his lips were still a little numb.
Green Tip shook his head and said that Zhang Jun's fingers were connected, but Shen Bai had been asleep for three whole days, and if she didn't wake up, she would really cry to death.
Shen Bai slept in the dark, he had no concept of time at all, and he didn't expect that he would sleep for three days in one sleep.
She rubbed her green-pointed head and said briskly, "Aren't I awake, don't cry, get me something to eat, I'm hungry." ”
Shen Bai took the green tip away, picked up a handkerchief to cover his lips and coughed, and coughed up blood again.
Her body was still very sore, she hooked her lips and smiled, she was really afraid that she would not live to the day she married Gu Hengzhou.
I don't know if the green tip is too slow, or the body is too weak, but his consciousness soon fell into a state of chaos again, and in a daze, Shen Bai heard someone calling him.
The voice was quite far away, and it was not really heard, Shen Bai took a lot of effort to open his eyes, Sun Yuehai's face was enlarged in front of him, Shen Bai was startled, and then realized that he was dreaming, and turned his head not to pay attention to it, but Sun Yuehai refused to let her go, and kept saying: "Miss Si, Your Majesty will come to check what you copied in a while, if you don't hurry up, you will be punished again." ”
Miss Division? Which Miss Division?
Shen Bai frowned, sat up straight uncontrollably, and muttered in a low voice: "I really don't remember what happened, and it's not that I want to be sick, why punish me?" ”
Sun Yuehai smiled and said: "Miss Si's disease is called soul loss in the folk, even the imperial doctor can't diagnose it, and Your Majesty is afraid that Miss Si will deliberately lie because she is sick." ”
"It's not a good habit to lie, I won't lie."
After listening to this conversation, Shen Bai understood that she was now in Si Ruoya's body.
But how could she be in Si Ruo's body?
Shen Bai couldn't figure it out, Si Ruoya had already picked up the pen and obediently copied something.
Through Si Ruo's eyes, Shen Bai saw that she was copying the female ring.
After copying less than two lines, Shen Bai felt a sudden pain in his head, and then Si Ruoyan threw the pen on the ground, grabbed the paper that he had copied next to him and tore it into pieces and threw it on the ground, scolding in his mouth: "What kind of bullshit is this, the master doesn't copy it!" ”
When the words fell, the palace people pushed the door open, and Zhao Che, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, appeared at the door.
“……”
Shen Bai and Sun Yuehai were both equally shocked, and before they could react, Si Ruoyan had already pointed at Zhao Che and scolded: "Master is right, don't think that you can punish the master for doing things casually if you are in a high position, and the master will not listen to you, I warn you, let the master leave here quickly, otherwise the master wants you to look good!" ”
Si Ruoyan's voice was soft and glutinous, but a little master was not ambiguous at all, and his fingers only poked Zhao Che's face.
Sun Yuehai was frightened when he heard this, and he was the first to react, and just wanted to stop Si Ruoya, Si Ruoyan drilled under Zhao Che's armpit like a monkey and ran out of the room.
When I met Si Ruoya before, Shen Bai didn't think she knew kung fu, but at this time in her body, watching her jump up and down, Shen Bai faintly felt that she seemed to know a little kung fu, but not much, just jumping around more flexibly than ordinary people.
Sun Yuehai shouted to his ancestor and chased him out, Zhao Che, as the emperor, naturally couldn't chase after him, so he directly asked the Praetorian Guards to catch Si Ruoyan and tie him back to the room.
Suspecting that Si Ruoya was very noisy, the Praetorian Guards blocked Si Ruoya's mouth with something, Si Ruoya hummed for a while, and fell asleep with a wide heart and a fat body.
As soon as Si Ruoya slept, Shen Bai woke up.
Lujian cried in his ear again, and opened his eyes with great effort, Gu Hengzhou and Shenshen Xiu were also there, their expressions were very solemn, Shen Bai asked, "I just slept for a while, what's wrong with you?" ”
Shen Bai's sudden voice startled Green Tips, she howled and cried, and said, "Miss, you just lost your breath, scared the slave to death, woo woo woo ......" 202 ebook
It's been three years, and in front of Shen Bai, she still can't control herself to call herself a slave.
Shen Ruxiu secretly wiped his tears with his back to Shen Bai, sighed and said, "It's good to wake up, the porridge is cold, let the kitchen heat up again." ”
After Shen Ruxiu finished speaking, he left with the green tip, leaving the space to Shen Bai and Gu Hengzhou.
Gu Hengzhou clenched his jaw tightly, his expression was serious, and he hadn't yet pulled out of the situation where Shen Bai had just lost his breath.
Shen Bai took Gu Hengzhou's hand and whispered, "Brother Gu, I'm fine." ”
Gu Hengzhou kept his face silent, Shen Bai felt that his hand was a little cold, thought for a while and said, "Brother Gu, do you remember that when I was in Yuanfeng County, I was like this once without a pulse to breathe?" ”
Of course, Gu Hengzhou remembered that that time Shen Bai didn't breathe for a while and a half, but didn't breathe for three whole days.
Shen Bai continued: "I think the situation this time is a bit similar to last time. ”
It's just that Hanchen helped her that time, and no one has come out to help her this time.
Gu Hengzhou's eyebrows moved slightly, looked at Shen Bai and asked, "What did you think of?" ”
Shen Bai carefully considered the words and said cautiously: "Brother Gu, don't you have the souls of the previous life and this life in your body now, according to common sense, I should also have the souls of two lives." ”
Gu Hengzhou grabbed Shen Bai's hand, his strength was too great, Shen Bai felt that he was caught by him a little painfully, twisted his eyebrows slightly, and said, "I suspect that the soul of my life is in Si Ruo's body." ”
On the day she was reborn, Si Ruo Aya happened to fall into the water and suffered from soul loss, for people like Shen Bai and Gu Hengzhou who had experienced supernatural events in Nanxiang and Dongheng, it was difficult not to associate these two things together.
Hearing this, Gu Hengzhou stood up suddenly, if it wasn't for Shen Bai's quick hand to stop him, he would probably have rushed out.
"Brother Gu, what are you doing?"
Shen Bai shouted, Gu Hengzhou looked down at her, and the murderous aura leaked between his eyebrows.
For a moment, Shen Bai felt that he was going to rush into the palace now and kill Si Ruoya.
If there was only one person left between her and Si Ruoya, Gu Hengzhou would definitely choose her, even if she would commit a heinous crime.
Shen Bai was very moved, and at the same time felt that Gu Hengzhou was too impulsive.
"Brother Gu, now all this is just my guess, whether it is still to be studied, and even if it is confirmed that my guess is right, how to solve this problem, you need to find the right way, it is not okay to act rashly."
Gu Hengzhou sat down again and asked Shen Bai, "What should I do?" ”
Shen Bai shook his head and said truthfully: "Actually, I don't know what to do, I used to have a thing called the Soul Bell in my hand, with it, I can see the souls wandering around, and I can also make them obey my call through special spells, but since I returned to Zhaoling, the Soul Bell has been shattered and gone, and now the only one who can deal with this matter is the incense maker of the Dongfang family." ”
The incense makers of the Oriental family have not been in the WTO for many years, and they have hardly set foot in Zhaoling, and now they want to find them, but I am afraid that it will be very difficult.
And sending Shen Bai back to Zhaoling this time was obviously something they had expected a long time ago, if they wanted to help Shen Bai, they were afraid that they would have helped a long time ago, where would they wait until now?
Of course, Shen Bai wouldn't tell Gu Hengzhou these words, she thought for a while and said, "When Murong Xuan wrote a letter back to Nanxiang to help me ask for a dowry, I also wrote a letter to bring back to the Dongfang family, they should send an incense maker to help, and wait patiently for some time." ”
Shen Bai hadn't said these words before, and his credibility here in Gu Hengzhou was not very high, but he didn't debunk them either.
The next day, Gu Hengzhou made an excuse to go to Nanchen Palace, sat in Nanchen Palace for a while, and he avoided the guards in the palace and went to Chenhua Palace.
He couldn't be clearer about the distribution of the guards in the palace, and it was easy to keep people from finding out.
Zhao Che didn't come back in the imperial study, and there were only a few palace people on duty in Chenhua Palace, and Gu Hengzhou was easy to get into.
Chenhua Palace is huge, even a little empty.
Gu Hengzhou looked inside for a while before he found Si Ruo Aya who was climbing on the tree and was about to jump out of the wall.
The tree was a hundred years old, and it was a bit too tall for her, and Si Ruo Aya frowned, hugging the trunk and hesitating, not daring to jump down.
Gu Hengzhou stood under the tree and looked at her, inexplicably thinking of the scene where he first found Shen Bai skipping class in Tai Academy for the first time in his previous life.
At that time, Shen Bai was also quite cowardly.
Although he had a different face, Gu Hengzhou still had a sense of familiarity from Si Ruo Aya in an instant.
"Shen Bai."
Gu Hengzhou screamed under the tree, and Si Ruoya was frightened, his feet slipped, and he fell from the tree.
She was also afraid of being discovered, but she remembered to cover her mouth and not yell.
Gu Hengzhou caught her steadily, Si Ruoyan closed his eyes tightly, secretly opened one eye after a while, and found that he was safe, immediately relaxed, breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "I scared the master to death, I thought that the master was going to be thrown to death here today." ”
When she stood up, Gu Hengzhou let her go, looked at her directly, and asked, "Do you recognize me now?" ”
Si Ruoya looked at him with wide eyes, afraid that she couldn't see clearly, so she deliberately moved closer, and after a while, she suddenly reached out and hooked Gu Hengzhou's neck.
Gu Hengzhou didn't move at all, she tried twice, she could only stand on tiptoe to reach Gu Hengzhou, leaned into his ear and said, "I just want to stand high and look at the scenery outside, can you help me keep it secret, don't tell anyone else?" ”
Even the excuses are exactly the same as what Shen Bai was looking for.
Even if she didn't seem to recognize Gu Hengzhou, Gu Hengzhou could be sure that it was Shen Bai's soul in this life who was now in control of Si Ruo's body.
It's just that I don't know why, Shen Bai in this life doesn't have a very clear sense of self, so every time he controls Si Ruo Aya's body, it's like Si Ruo Aya suddenly goes crazy and gets sick.
At this time, Gu Hengzhou suddenly understood why Shen Bai was so entangled with him in this life and him in the previous life.
From an emotional point of view, they seem to be the same person, but from a rational point of view, they are independent individuals who can be viewed completely separately.
Gu Hengzhou was distracted for a moment, Si Ruoyan hooked his neck and shook it, and asked, "Okay, big brother, you have something to say, if you want money or something else, we can discuss it." ”
"I have one condition." Gu Hengzhou said, Si Ruoyan didn't think about it, and immediately replied: "No problem, I can agree to any conditions." ”
"Okay."
Gu Hengzhou answered, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Si Ruoya was about to explain to Gu Hengzhou not to say that he was exposed, but he saw Gu Hengzhou easily jumping onto the wall, but he disappeared in an instant.
is so good, he should dump the master a lot.
Si Ruo Aya touched her chin and thought, and then she was a little puzzled, why did she feel that she had been dumped so much? Does this thing need to be ranked?
The palace people came to find it, and saw Si Ruoya standing thoughtfully under the tree, walked a few steps quickly and took her hand, and said nervously: "Miss Si, you can't run around, if it weren't for the fact that you cried so much this morning, Your Majesty would not let the minions let you go, if you make some more trouble, the minions don't need to ask for their heads." ”
"How can it be so exaggerated, Your Majesty is very powerful, and he will not kill people casually." Si Ruoyan said nonchalantly, as if he knew more about Zhao Che.
The palace people couldn't help but slander, Your Majesty is just talking to you, and we who are slaves have never been so tolerant.
Out of Chenhua Palace, Gu Hengzhou left the palace normally according to the original route.
was reminded of a lot of previous memories by Si Ruoya, and he bought a few snacks that Shen Bai liked to eat on the street.
As soon as I entered the Shuyun Garden, I found that there was more of a living person in the courtyard, and when I went in, I saw that a young man with a lot of pigtails and tattered clothes was sitting on the edge of the bed and talking to Shen Bai.
This young man Gu Hengzhou had seen it, and when he first came to Zhaoling with Shen Bai, he had also lived in the Great Commander's Mansion for a while.
At that time, the Grand Commander's Mansion was not the Great Commander's Mansion, but it was just a place he was going to buy for Shen Bai to live in.
Later, he also saw this young man, and the young man helped him open the soul eye, and he saw a soul named Shen Qi beside Shen Bai.
Gu Hengzhou has never asked about the young man's occupation, and now it seems that this young man should be the incense maker of the Dongfang family.
The vigilance dissipated, Gu Hengzhou was about to say hello, and the young man asked first, "Have you seen her?" ”
