321. Temptation and doubt
"Little girl, you might as well tell me, what is your method of immortality?"
After sending off Gonggong Li, Qin Fengyi and Chu Ci also left the Xu family. As for Xu An, he left when he saw Bai Hua coming.
"If you look at me closely, I look like someone who knows the law of immortality?" Zhou Yunxi spread his hands helplessly and looked at Bai Hua, "Take a closer look?" I'm like this, mixed up to such an extent, can I know immortality? β
"Even if you don't know how to live forever, you should always know something about it, right?" Bai Hua looked at Zhou Yunxi with a smile, which made Zhou Yunxi feel uncomfortable, "I believe that my calculations and approvals are correct." β
"If I say that there can be a method of immortality on Penglai Immortal Island, can you believe it?" Zhou Yunxi raised his eyebrows and returned a smile to Bai Hua, "Immortal Dao Penglai, people who are destined can be seen, do you believe it or not?" β
Zhou Yunxi's words made Bai Hua frown slightly, obviously he didn't expect Zhou Yunxi to say this. One thing to say, this place, Bai Hua has really never heard of it.
Even in those barbarian places, Bai Hua didn't see this place mentioned in their books. In this way, isn't Zhou Yunxi fooling him casually?
Bai Hua wasn't sure, so he didn't speak.
"You've seen it?"
Seeing that Zhou Yunxi was still silent, Bai Hua couldn't hold back. After all, the matter of immortality is extremely attractive to everyone, although Bai Hua does not have such a deep obsession, but if there is really a way to live forever, Bai Hua is willing to give it a try.
"Nope." Zhou Yunxi blinked, "I'm talking nonsense." β
As soon as these words came out, Bai Hua was suddenly dumbfounded.
He saw that Zhou Yunxi's eyes were clear and there was no sign of lying, but he also believed Zhou Yunxi's words. Bai Hua boasted that he could see through people's hearts, otherwise he would not have been able to escape death for so many years.
"Penglai? I've heard the name. At that time, Mu Cheng suddenly spoke, but seemed to be a little puzzled, "In your original world, that place is indeed called Immortal Island...... You really haven't seen it? β
"Don't say no, even if there is, I can't afford to pay for the journey!" Zhou Yunxi was helpless, rolled her eyes fiercely in her heart, and her tone was also a little ruthless when communicating with Mu Cheng, "You have heard of it, it means that it exists?" β
Zhou Yunxi said this, and Mu Cheng was directly silent and stopped talking.
As for Bai Hua, he frowned. He always felt that Zhou Yunxi seemed to be a little distracted, and he didn't know what she was thinking. Of course, the so-called Penglai, Bai Hua didn't take it to heart.
If there really is a place in the world, when he deduced it in the early years, he could also deduce an approximate location of Penglai Immortal Island, instead of deducing a Zhou Yunxi.
"Miss Zhou really doesn't have a clue about immortality?" Bai Hua stared at Zhou Yunxi with obvious scrutiny in his eyes, "If you really don't know, then I'm afraid this matter will be really troublesome." β
"What?"
Hearing Bai Hua say this, Zhou Yunxi was keenly aware of a sense of danger, but no matter how hard Zhou Yunxi racked his brains, he didn't know why he had such a dangerous feeling.
If she had to say why, Zhou Yunxi felt that only the emperor had to let her go to the royal family's ancestor worship ceremony with her to make her feel dangerous.
"You might have survived." Bai Hua said, "If you know some news, you can give the emperor some ambiguous words." β
"You're confused." Zhou Yunxi only shook his head after listening to Bai Hua's words, his face looked serious, and his eyes were a little helpless, "Don't say I don't know now, even if I know, I'm sad about the ancestor worship ceremony." β
Zhou Yunxi's words made Bai Hua's eyes shrink, and he suddenly realized how naΓ―ve his previous thoughts were.
Sure enough, after leaving the palace for too long, Bai Hua actually forgot that none of the people in the palace were ruthless. Goshoya
And the emperor is definitely the most ruthless of them all!
"Since you agreed, there must be a way to protect yourself."
Although Bai Hua felt a little embarrassed because of his thoughts, he thought that the warlock had already told Zhou Yunxi about the emperor's plan before, and Zhou Yunxi had also received the holy decree, so there would definitely be a way to keep himself.
"It depends on whether the emperor believes it or not in front of the ministers."
Zhou Yunxi said and smiled, looking in a good mood. Seeing her like this, Bai Hua suddenly confirmed his guess just now. Also, how could Zhou Yunxi, a goblin and goblin person, send him to death by himself?
What's more, even if Zhou Yunxi wants to 'send him to death', depending on how much Qin Fengyi, the prince of the Hou Mansion, and the current crown prince Chu Ci care about Zhou Yunxi, they will definitely keep Zhou Yunxi.
Soβ
Zhou Yunxi was not sure that they would protect her, so she was so unscrupulous?
"I didn't rely on the prince and the prince to protect me." Zhou Yunxi saw through Bai Hua's thoughts, so he also snorted lightly at this time, "Except for the time when the ancestors are worshipped, the emperor has no way to repent, and at other times, he is no match for a 'holy decree'." β
"Rich and dangerous?"
Bai Hua raised his eyebrows, and his face was a little playful.
"Sure enough, it's someone who has been an emperor."
Zhou Yunxi also smiled slightly when he heard Bai Hua's words, but did not refute. With this, Bai Hua's eyes suddenly changed. If he only thought that Zhou Yunxi had something outstanding before, then at this time, Bai Hua must have been even more surprised by Zhou Yunxi's 'boldness' in the so-called 'extraordinary'.
It stands to reason that when she knew that the emperor wanted her life, she would be a person, and she would think of running away, or she would rise up and strike first.
But Zhou Yunxi wanted to use the emperor's situation to force the emperor to let go, such a person, except for a bold sentence, Bai Hua really couldn't think of anything else.
If Zhou Yunxi is a man, he can't tell when he will be able to sit in that supreme position. Thinking about it like this, Bai Hua felt a little pity in a rare way.
"You want to use that Gu poison that Fang Er gave you?" Bai Hua thought about it for a while, and thought of the Gu poison that the warlock had brought before, and he could not guess Zhou Yunxi's plan, "Little girl, do you know that once the Gu poison is hit, the way to unravel it is so simple, and it is not so easy." If you are not careful, you will not die because of Gu poison, but you will also die because of the deviation at the time of detoxification! β
"Don't worry." Zhou Yunxi smiled confidently, and knew that he was confident at a glance, "I'm not completely sure, how can I risk my life?" β
These words stopped Bai Hua and made Bai Hua look at Zhou Yunxi very seriously. After a while, I saw Bai Hua touch his chin that had been shaved clean, and said, "It seems that I really underestimated you." β
"I just believe Miss Xu." Zhou Yunxi smiled and mentioned Xu An. Yes, Xu An is a medical woman, and she can distinguish this as a Gu poison by her taste, and her medical skills will never be bad, "Besides, who said that I was going to take Gu poison?" β
If Zhou Yunxi's words made Bai Hua feel that her behavior was a little dangerous, then after listening to Zhou Yunxi's words at this time, Bai Hua felt that Zhou Yunxi was smarter than he thought.
Yes, why did she have to take Gu poison? She just needs to know the habits of the Gu poison, observe the emperor's movements, and then make an appropriate response, isn't it?
"If the emperor finds out, not only will you have to die, but Fang Er will also die." Bai Hua cared about his little junior brother, so he said, "Girl, are you really sure?" β
"What else can I do?"
Zhou Yunxi raised his eyebrows, looked at Bai Hua and smiled, and then stopped talking.
