Linlang stuffed the bell given by Yejun into her cuffs, and Zhong Jiu suddenly appeared in front of her. Probably seeing Yejun made her feel a little weak, and she was stunned for a long time.

In order not to let Zhong Jiu know that Yejun had come, she was the first to speak: "Why did you come back silently, you are scared to death."

Zhong Jiu looked at her with scrutinizing eyes, smiled and said, "Are you doing something bad behind my back?" How do you look like a thief. ”

Linlang was hit by him, his eyes wandered around, and after a while, he pointed to the stone table on the side and said, "Oh, I secretly drank your tea."

Zhong Jiu looked at it and said nonchalantly, "I thought it was something terrible?" It's just some tea, you can drink it as much as you like in the future, you don't have to hide it. ”

Linlang lowered her head and sighed, handed over the book in her hand, and said softly: "Then I moved your book without your consent, and you are not angry, right?"

Zhong Jiu took it and looked at the book cover, and said casually: "It's not such an interesting book, you can read it if you want to." I didn't let you read before, but I was afraid that you would be tired, not because I didn't want you to touch my books, so you shouldn't always be so honestly afraid. You can move everything here, and everything here is yours. ”

His words made Linlang very happy, she raised her little face and smiled: "I'm not tired, but I've felt a lot better recently."

After she finished speaking, she fell silent again, and the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, she looked at him and asked intently, "You said that you won't let me die, right?"

Zhong Jiu was stunned, stepped forward to hold her hand, looked into her eyes and said, "Yes, as long as I live, I won't let you die." ”

Linlang raised the corners of her mouth and laughed, but her smile was full of sadness, she took a breath and said: "The Divine Soul Record says that those who have lost their souls in the underworld will not lose their lives, they will only become stupid, right?" ”

Zhong Jiu looked at her smile like this, and his heart tightened in distress. She should have spent her life in the world without worry, she was cheerful and bright, why did she always fall into such a dark and cruel situation. He reached out his hand, stroked the hair on her sideburns, and said softly, "No matter what you become, I will never leave you." ”

Zhong Jiu was so affectionate to her, she was not unmoved. But maybe in the near future, she won't even have a chance to become a stupid person. Death, she never thought about it, but now she has to think about it. She is only seventeen years old, she has not had time to get married, and she can't even support her mother's old age. Cai Wei raised her alone, and she suffered a lot of bitterness and white eyes, and now she is going to leave her, she is really unwilling.

She thought of Yejun saying that he could save her, and to be honest, she was still a little moved. It's just that she doesn't fully believe him, and she doesn't know whether what he says is true or false. What is the purpose of him coming to her three times and twice? Is it just because it was old acquaintances? Zhong Jiu seems to be extremely dissatisfied with Yejun, could it be that the two of them also had a holiday in the past?

"What's wrong with you? What are you thinking? Zhong Jiu suddenly interrupted her thoughts.

Linlang came back to his senses, smiled at Zhong Jiu, and then asked casually, "Have you ever thought that if a mortal falls into the Lost Soul Gu, he may end up with a different result from the people of the underworld?" ”

Zhong Jiu was stunned by her question, there was no question in the book about what would happen if a mortal was hit by the Lost Soul Gu, and he had never delved into it, but he just took it for granted that it would be the same result.

Seeing that he really didn't know, Linlang thought about it again and again, and still took the "Divine Soul Record" and turned to the page of the Lost Soul Gu. Skillfully broke open the mezzanine and handed it to Zhong Jiu.

He looked puzzled, and when he looked at it carefully, his chest seemed to be beaten by someone, and the pain was so painful that he could barely breathe. He didn't know, he didn't even know. It was the Gu poison he personally gave her, and he thought she would survive.

The book slipped from his hand and fell to the ground with a thud. Linlang squatted down, picked it up slowly, and patted the dust on it. whispered: "You don't know, I don't blame you, even if I die, it's not your fault." ”

Zhong Jiu suddenly roared, and slapped his palm on the corridor pillar next to him, and the corridor pillar was so thick that a big hole was split in an instant. He was like crazy, his hands were tightly clasped around her shoulders, his eyes were red, he gritted his teeth and said, "You don't understand, if it weren't for me...... I don't know, I hurt you, I hate myself. ”

He gritted his teeth and gurgled with rage. His reaction made Linlang at a loss for a while, she suddenly remembered Yejun's words, she wanted to ask Zhong Jiu, who gave her the Gu. But she didn't want Zhong Jiu to think that she was suspicious of him, that sentence turned upside down in her mouth, and finally she thought, as long as it wasn't him, why not ask.

"Do you know who gave me Gu poison? Who wants to kill me? Linlang looked at him, her eyes not letting go of any expression on his face.

Zhong Jiu was horrified in his heart, and his eyes made him flustered. He hurriedly turned his head, looked away, swallowed his saliva nervously and said, "Me."

......" Zhong Jiu's hand hidden in the cuff was clenched into a fist, his nails were sunk into the flesh, and the pain in the palm of his hand was no match for the pain in his heart. He has always been frank and upright, but now in the face of Linlang, he can't say a word.

He was afraid that she would know the truth, that she would remember everything that had been before. So when the Hades King asked him to use Gu on her, although he felt that it was very inappropriate, he still agreed. In fact, in his selfish heart, he didn't want her to remember the past. After all, she hated him at that time, hated that he didn't end up with her. Hate him for betraying her at the last moment. The desperate look in her eyes at that time, he will never forget it for the rest of his life.

She cursed him to be immortal and immortal, and never to be loved, in the end, it was a miracle. Now he was going to lose her again, and sadly and ridiculously, this time he did it himself.

Linlang looked at Zhong Jiu's painful appearance, and couldn't bear it, although she didn't get the answer she wanted, she still spoke: "Forget it, I don't want to know now." I'm a little thirsty, and the tea I've made is already cold, so go ahead and make me another pot. ”

Zhong Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he told the truth and told the truth. What kind of consequences it would be, he didn't dare to think. He said yes dumbly, picked up the teapot on the table and went to the room.

Linlang sat on the stool, her heart irritated. Could it really be Zhong Jiuxia's Gu? She couldn't believe it anyway, why did he give her a trick? Something to do with Bai Yingning? But he likes Bai Yingning, he keeps so many things from her, how can he be willing to let her die? Maybe it's like what the Night King said, the Hades King doesn't want to see her alive, and Zhong Jiu just obeys the orders of the Hades King. But why did Hades do this? What did Bai Yingning do in the past? will make him a killer. But now she was just a powerless mortal, and she didn't pose any threat to him.

Linlang became more and more unable to figure it out, and her head began to ache faintly, like a pinprick. She leaned on the corner of the table and tried to stand up, but the headache came more violently, and suddenly it was dark in front of her eyes, and she fell to the ground.

Zhong Jiu was walking out of the house with tea, and saw Linlang's body falling straight to the ground with a dull sound. He exclaimed Linlang, hurriedly threw the teapot in his hand, ran to Linlang's side, picked her up and entered the house.

Linlang woke up from the smell of incense, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Zhong Jiu holding her hand and staring at her anxiously. Seeing her wake up, he anxiously asked, "Do you feel better?" ”

She wanted to smile, but at the moment she didn't even have the strength to pull the corners of her mouth, so she had to wink at him.

Zhong Jiu held her hand tightly, and asked again, "Does your head still hurt?" ”

Linlang wanted to comfort him and say that it didn't hurt. But she felt as if a sledgehammer was smashing at her head, as if it were about to crack. She didn't hold back in the end, and frowned* and said, "My head hurts so much, why does it hurt like this?" I'm dying, am I? ”

Zhong Jiu roared in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, you won't die." After saying that, his eyes turned red, probably even he didn't believe it.

Linlang bit her lip and said weakly, "If I die, can you promise me a few things?" ”

"I won't promise you, and you don't want to die." Zhong Jiu said fiercely.

Linlang snorted lightly, regardless of whether Zhong Jiu agreed or not, Wuzi said: "The first thing is, please help me take care of my mother, it is not easy for her to raise me so much." If you see her, tell her that Linlang is not filial, and you will not be able to repay her nurturing kindness in this life. If there is an afterlife, please remember me, and I will definitely find her and take good care of her. The second thing is, I want you to live well, you can't save me, and don't blame yourself, I never blame you. ”

Linlang's empathy made him embarrassed. Even in the end, she still thinks about him and misses her. And he didn't dare to do it, how did he not hesitate to attack her in the first place, if he had been soft-hearted at that time, would she have survived? Or give her to the Night King, and she won't end up in such a situation.

He was frightened by his own thoughts, how could he have the idea of giving her to the Night King. Yejun's personality, the Three Realms can't tolerate him, and if Linlang hands it over to him, the end will not be much better than now. At that time, if he could put an end to Yingning and Yejun's contact as soon as possible, it was unlikely that there would be any disasters later.

"Linlang, I can't watch you die, I'll find a way." As he spoke, he took out a white blue and white porcelain vase from a brocade box next to the bed, poured out a pill from it, carefully fed it to her mouth, and said, "You bear with me, I will go to the underworld, you believe me, I will definitely be able to save you." ”

Zhong Jiu got up and was about to leave, but his sleeve was pulled by Linlang. He couldn't move forward for a while, so he had to stop, pat Linlang's hand, and said softly: "You sleep well, and when you wake up, I'll be back." ”

Linlang used all her strength, grabbed his sleeve tightly, and asked with difficulty, "Can I still wake up?" ”

Zhong Jiu's breath stagnated, and his chest seemed to be pulled back and forth by countless hands, and then crumpled together. Bouts of angina made him break out in a cold sweat. He looked at her in a daze for a while, and comforted her softly: "You will definitely wake up, I said that I would not let you die, and I will never break my word." ”

Linlang looked at him with a determined face, finally let go, and whispered: "Okay, I believe you, I'll wait for you to come back." ”
