Chapter Seventy-Three: In Peril
Zheng Duxing was surrounded and poisoned, and the situation was not optimistic. But as a nine-tailed fox warrior, his martial arts are naturally unusual, and after a fight, he successfully escaped from the encirclement and returned to the courtyard where he lived.
"Catch up with him, don't let him run away, just kill him, from now on, the Tang Gate will be ours"
Zheng Duxing ran to the side of the pavilion, and heard a sound behind him, and when he looked back, the person who had plotted against him had chased him into the courtyard.
Zheng Duxing raised his fist and slammed a blow to a pillar, counting the mechanism being triggered, and several people who rushed into the courtyard failed to escape their lives.
Zheng Duxing did not hesitate, and immediately ran towards the house, where there was a secret passage, which was his only chance to escape.
Just a few steps forward, the toxicity attacked, Zheng Duxing's head was dizzy, and all of a sudden, he fell to the ground.
Dizzy and paralyzed, Zheng Duxing crawled to the door, but he didn't have any strength to move forward. At the last moment of his consciousness, he saw people outside the courtyard setting fires, puffs of smoke, clumps of flames, rushing towards him, and he was completely unable to move.
Death was only one step away from him, and the fear in his heart was infinitely magnified, but at the last moment of his sobriety, he didn't have time to regret it, or he didn't want to regret it at all, he just used his last strength to shout: "I have walked alone all my life, and the most wrong thing I have ever done is to choose to believe in someone." Lian Qing, you are proud, I hope you will never have it, when you choose to give your trust to others. ”
Darkness enveloped everything, and everything became unconscious. In the haze, it seems that the experience of a lifetime is echoing in the mind, but those memories are becoming more and more blurred, and they will eventually dissipate into the void forever.
But a person always has a few things that he is reluctant to give up, although those are reluctant to give up, just because he can't ask for it, and a little sadness, but the sting will always make people sober.
"Sect Master, you finally woke up, and I knew you would be fine."
Zheng Duxing was awakened by the pain in his heart, and he barely opened his eyes, and saw Su Wenxin crying on the side.
"You saved me? Don't you deserve to hate me? Don't you want to kill me for revenge? Zheng Duxing said coldly, and then struggled to sit up.
His first thought after waking up was not gratitude, but doubt, that all people are untrustworthy and that no one is reliable.
However, he was weak, and as soon as he struggled, he fell back into bed, and now he had no strength at all.
"Sect Master, don't move, your health is not good, you need to recuperate now." Su Wenxin comforted.
"Why did you save me? Where is this again? What do you have in mind? Do you think that the way I am now, I can't help you? Zheng Duxing's hand touched his waist, and when Su Wenxin's body was close, a poisonous arrow was against her heart.
"Sect Master, what are you doing here?" Su Wen was shocked.
"Tell me, why did you save me? If you don't understand, you won't want to live today. Zheng Duxing said fiercely.
"I don't know why I want to save you, I'm just scared, I'm afraid I'm going to lose you, I'm afraid I'll live alone in the future." Su Wenxin replied with tears in his eyes.
"Shouldn't you be happy to get rid of me? What are you afraid of? Living alone, without any worries, that is freedom. Zheng Duxing said.
"That sect master, you have always been alone, so you don't have any worries, but you are really free?" Su Wenxin asked rhetorically.
"Of course I am free, and my only regret is that I didn't become the first person in Yaodong. When I take charge of the Tang Sect again, I will definitely ask the Ding brothers for everything that should belong to me. At that time, I didn't have any worries. Zheng Duxing said.
"Is that all? Apart from these, don't you have any worries about the sect master? Su Wenxin asked.
"Of course, what else can I worry about?" Zheng replied alone.
"In that case, why have you kept me by your side all these years, didn't you say that it is best to be alone? Since this is the case, why do you can't hold back your tears when you are at your weakest, don't you say that you are the first warrior in Yaodong, why do warriors cry? Su Wenxin said.
"You talk nonsense, how can I shed tears, I will never be weak, I will always be the strongest." Zheng Duxing said excitedly, but the tears were involuntarily left, and his weak body was trembling incessantly.
"I know that you are the most powerful, and no one can compare to you. But there are some things that you should let go of as well. I've been with you for so many years, and I know your mind. I used to complain about you and fear you, but since I know your thoughts, I don't blame you, and I am not afraid of you. I just hope that you can live a more relaxed life in the future. Su Wenxin said, and put his hand on Zheng Duxing's hand, wanting to bring the poisoned arrow.
"Stupid woman, there's nothing I can't let go. I don't need the sympathy of others. I never regret what I've done, and I don't have to. Zheng Duxing held the poisoned arrow tightly, and he wanted to be ruthless and kill Su Wenxin.
But looking at her face, looking into her concerned eyes, all the people and things that had been missed, would never come back, and he didn't want to miss anything more.
"I don't want you to let go of anything, and I don't want you and me to regret anything. I just hope that you can let go of your hand, just let go of it. Su Wenxin looked at Zheng Duxing's eyes and said.
"I don't want to trust anybody else, no one can be trusted." Zheng Duxing struggled and said.
"You don't have to trust anyone, you just have to trust your own judgment. It's up to you to let go of your hand or hand it forward. Su Wenxin stared at Zheng Duxing and said.
Zheng Duxing's heart is ruthless, he has been betrayed by one of the most trusted people, and he can't trust anyone else anymore. But a tear dripped on the back of his hand, his heart trembled slightly, and his hand involuntarily let go.
Su Wenxin breathed a sigh of relief, took the poisoned arrow and put it on the table next to the bed, wiped away the tears, and then said with a smile: "Sect Master, you are not in good health now, I will make you something to nourish your body to eat, you can rest now." ”
"Where is this? Is it safe here? Zheng Duxing asked.
"It's far away from the main altar here, Lian Qing can't find us, the sect master doesn't have to worry, you can rest in peace." After Su Wenxin finished speaking, he walked out of the house.
Zheng Duxing was weak for a while, his mind was dizzy, and when he saw the poisoned arrow on the table, he reached out and wanted to pick it up.
"There's nothing to regret when you decide, don't you even believe in yourself?"
After hesitating for a moment, he retracted his hand and turned away, no longer looking at the poisoned arrow. (To be continued.) )
