Chapter Ninety-Seven: Selling Fame and Reputation
"It's so much easier than you think!"
The sky is dark, and the moon is not cloudy. A sudden heavy rain washed everything clean, even the blood and tears left by Xiaodao.
Yan Du stood quietly in front of the window of Haibu Pavilion, looking at the heavy rain outside the window, the room was still lingering with bamboo leaves and mint incense, and the Dazu pine tea in the cup was still rich and far-reaching, so elegant and vulgar, so glamorous.
She turned her head to look at Tang Ang, who was sitting quietly and drinking tea not far away, was he also a member of the Tang Sect?
"Young Master." Suddenly, Wu Shao, who was called away by Tang Feifei every time, appeared out of place at this moment, only to hear him calling outside the door.
"Come in." Tang Ang did not take his eyes off the booklet in his hand, and responded coldly.
Wu Shao pushed the door in response, but saw that Yan Du was still in the room, and his expression immediately became a little embarrassed. Seeing this, Yan Du was about to take the opportunity to go out, but just wanted to speak but heard Tang Ang's cold voice: "Say it directly." ”
As if he had heard something earth-shattering, his eyes widened in surprise, his slightly open mouth did not know how to close, and he panicked for a while before he eased up, and then stared at Yan Du with a strange expression, also looking like he didn't know what to say.
After a long time, he exhaled deeply, as if accepting reality, took out a letter from his bosom, and reported to Tang Ang:
"Young master, Lingnan has a secret letter."
When Tang Ang heard this, his eyes focused on the book were raised slightly, still expressionless, he stretched out his hand to take the letter, and opened it generously in front of Yan Duan's eyes.
She stood behind Tang Ang, ordinary people should not be able to read the content of the letter, but Yan Du has been practicing her eyes all year round, and it is easy to snoop.
She didn't, though.
She walked lightly past Tang Ang's position, walked straight to the smoker in the room, carefully turned over the incense burner, and added a spoonful of bamboo leaf spices, and in an instant, the elegant smell opened her mind.
After experiencing the events of the day, her heart has never stopped flustering, and her mind has been repeating the scenes in Tangmen Dongyuan, the arrogant and domineering Tang Miao, the sleek Tang Yan, and the scarred Xiaodao.
When she returned to Xiyuan Pharmacy, the pharmacy uncle had already sent Xiao Sui away, and he only told Yan Dui: Xiao Dao can only live if he dies, and only when he dies will the eldest lady vent his hatred, if the eldest lady "remembers" them, she will not be able to live!
The uncle's words have been haunting her ears: "Only those who are abandoned by their parents and relatives will sign the contract of life and death, Xiaodao Xiaosui's father and mother have already sold their daughter's life to the Tang Sect, this kind of person is better to be a maid, if the life is not good, it will be pulled away and pulled to ......"
What are you doing with it? The uncle refused to continue, and Yan Du didn't want to ask.
Tang Yan, will he really cure Xiaodao?
In an instant, a crisp slap sounded in the silent Haibu Pavilion.
Wu Shao, who had just been frightened, was frightened by Yan Dui's strange behavior at this moment, and even Tang Ang, who was calm, raised his head and looked at Yan Dui, whose face had been swollen by herself.
I saw the figure of the blue and white embroidered hibiscus brocade robe, slender but straight, and the beautiful and handsome side face was full of chagrin, and the next moment, the figure rushed out of the room.
Xu walked so fast that the oil lamps in the room flickered as she left, and then she disappeared from his eyes.
Tang Ang stared at the oil lamp that was returning to normal and was burning with warm light, and his distant mountain-like eyebrows suddenly looked at Wu Shao: "Figure out the cause and effect." ”
Wu Shao looked at those eyes without a trace of emotion, and he was also shocked and puzzled in his heart, young master, why did he care so much about Li Fu like the third girl?
"Yes!" There was no time for him to think, but now, he went to find out!
——
The night was like ink, mixed with the water vapor after the rain, and the entire Tang Gate was wet, moldy, and festering.
Yan Duan's heart sank to the bottom, but he told himself that even if he turned over the entire Tang Sect, he would find Xiao Dao!
Yi Shui swordsmanship is the swordsmanship of killing, killing people, I am in the dark enemy in the yin, and I have extremely high requirements for breath-holding and pranayama. Besides, Yan Duan has done a lot of stealing Liang Yuezhu, although there are many guards in the Tang Sect, who can really detect her?
She rummaged through room after pavilion, crossed the first floor and courtyard, and finally found Xiaodao in the courtyard of the East Garden.
She cautiously leaned on the roof, lifted a small tile, and looked at Tang Yan who was feeding Xiao Dao medicine from top to bottom.
Luckily, Rice is still alive!
She breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart floated with sorry for Tang Yan, who had thought he was a bad person......
There are only a few oil lamps lit in the dim room, and you have to concentrate on it to see the layout inside, it doesn't seem to be a bedroom, a bunch of bottles and cans, but it looks like the little san'er's poison refining place that I have seen on Longhu Mountain.
"Phew!" Suddenly, a sudden vomiting sound came from the room, Yan Du hurriedly looked at the two of them, only to see Tang Yan hurriedly retreat several steps, and in an instant, two guards ran out of the shadows, blocking between Tang Yan and Xiao Dao, who vomited.
"Tsk!" Tang Yan looked at Xiao Dao with disgust, and put aside the medicine he had just fed her with a displeased expression, and suddenly, Xiao Dao, who was originally unconscious, opened her eyes, rolling her eyes as if she was in an evil spirit, and there seemed to be something white in her body that kept twisting her limbs, which was very weird.
Seeing the next scene, Yan Du hurriedly covered his mouth, not only because he was surprised, but because it was too disgusting!
I saw a bunch of black insects, spitting out frantically from Xiao Dao's mouth, covering her small face and neck in an instant, Xiao Dao's constantly writhing body was like a paper figure with stiff joints in a shadow puppet play, and the violent vomiting sound was gradually drowned out by the insects moving in her throat.
The disgusting smell of black insects instantly filled the entire house, and even Yan Duan could smell the stench mixed with rotting flesh, Tang Yan hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose, and said to the guards:
"A few of you deal with it here, this kind of Gu will hang her life, and she can't die, but it will erode her consciousness, so she can't move, but it shouldn't be my mother's Gu, it seems that this time I tried it wrong!"
Poison? Try the Gu for the living! Yan Du stared at the little rice that was writhing in pain when she stepped on, and when the last black worm spat out of her mouth, it had already crawled all over the ground, and the guards did not kill them, but lit a fire and burned them one by one, and the black worms burned when they caught fire, leaving not a trace of ashes behind.
She didn't have time to be surprised by what she saw in front of her, she just wanted to jump down directly to save Xiao Dao, but she heard Tang Yan's guard pick up the medicine he had just fed Xiao Dao, and asked, "Young Master, is this medicine Gu, do your subordinates need to deal with it together?" ”
Tang Yan glanced at it, waved his hand and said: "Gu Mother has already been put into her body, this antidote I developed, but it is useless, but it forced out a belly of small Gu worms, next time add some ingredients to see!" ”
When the Gu mother enters the human body, she begins to absorb human flesh and blood, lays eggs, and the eggs suck flesh and blood, and grow into black worms.
What a terrible process! Yan Dusk's forehead was dripping with sweat, and her eyes were bloodshot, could she still save Xiaodao?
I don't know how long it took, all the people in the room were gone, and only one guard was left looking at the half-dead Xiao Dao, Yan Du watched Xiao Dao's breathing gradually calm down, and his eyes that rolled his eyes also recovered, but he just kept staring in one direction sluggishly, like a living dead.
She took a deep breath, and in the flash of light, she was already in the room, and before even the guards who were guarding her could react, she had already knocked her unconscious.
"Xiaodao!" Yan Du ran to Xiao Dao's side, and looked nervous to help up the little girl who had no ability to resist at all.
The oil lamp in the room flickered and dimmed, Yan Du stood in the light, the warm light illuminated her face, even if Xiao Dao's eyes were out of focus, she could feel the warm heart of the other party.
The pain of being bitten by Gu worms in her body made Xiao Dao realize that she was not dead yet, but she couldn't live anymore and didn't want to live! She pulled at her throat, which had been screamed when she was scolded by the cane, and with all her strength, pleaded:
"Kill me......"
Yan Duan's eyes were bloodshot, she didn't know that Gu poison had no cure, she didn't see Xiao Dao's misery when she was tortured by Gu worms, she didn't understand, Xiao Dao couldn't live anymore!
Instead of continuing to be tortured by Tang Yan, it is better to ......
The Shattered Star Sword on his waist was as cold as the ice of the Nine Cold Heavens, eroding Yan Dui's infinitely tender and pitiful heart. She has killed a lot of people, but none of them are innocent, but Xiaodao, she really can't do it!
Master, what should I do!
The hand holding Xiao Dao trembled slightly, and the other party's heaving chest told him that she was still alive and in pain. Yan Du stared at Xiao Dao's dull eyes, and a tear flowed out of them.
"I'm sorry! I ......, "There's no way to do it!"
Even Yan Du didn't know where the original decisive self had gone, at this moment, she was just a coward, selling her reputation!
She slowly put down Xiao Dao and ran away.
——
The heavens are not beautiful, but at this moment, they are in the right place.
Another pouring rain completely poured on the heavens and the earth, and she sat on the swing in the east corner of Haibu Pavilion in the twilight, her eyes lost their original clarity, and the heavy drops of rain gradually wet her whole body through the branches of the crooked neck tree.
The night rain was cold, but she didn't seem to feel it at all, the rain dripped down her forehead, sliding down her smooth face and falling on her thick eyelashes, so that she had to close her eyes, but her eyes fell into darkness, and the miserable scene of Fang Xiaodao immediately appeared in front of her.
The black worms that keep pouring out......
"Phew!" The thought of that disgusting image made her nauseous, and her legs lost strength, and she fell straight to her knees on the wet grass, but fortunately she was supported by both hands, so that she did not fall all over.
What an embarrassment of myself!
Yin Yin learned peerless martial arts, Yin Yin killed the wicked person, Yin Yin has said goodbye to his weak self!
"Li Fu!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded between this heaven and earth, calling her and waking her up. The voice was low, emotionless, cold and detached, and it shouldn't have been here.
Twilight turned her rain-soaked face and looked at the person behind her, even though she knew who the other person was.
"Come in!"
The haze in the distance, the thunder in the distance, but there is him in front of him.
Tang Ang held an umbrella, dressed in a dark blue rhombic brocade, a pair of eyes reflected the outline of Yan Dusk, and a heart with a warmth that he hadn't felt for a long time.
