Chapter 8, Self-inflicted
The terrain of the Heavenly Damnation Mountains is complex and dangerous, and it stretches long, lying between Cloud City and the Southern Barbarian Kingdom.
If you want to play hide and seek in the mountains, it takes more than half a month just to find someone. Coupled with Jin Qi's deliberate actions, Mu Rouxi stayed in this quiet and elegant small bamboo building for more than a month.
The sun was scorching her buttocks, so Mu Rouxi supported the wooden plank under her with her hands, and got up from the bed with some difficulty. She is now more than five months pregnant, but her belly is bigger than that of ordinary pregnant women.
Liyue definitely said to Mu Rouxi before that most of her babies are twins.
"Miss, are you awake? Do you want Qiuya to come in and serve you, get up? "Qiuya was brought in on the second day they arrived.
I don't know if Jin Qi knew that Qiu Ya would become another person at night, and he asked Qiu Ya to serve her during the day.
At night, guarding the outside of her house was the only woman in the Golden Dragon Guard, Long Si.
Mu Rouxi was always a little wary of Qiu Ya at first, and refused to let her get close, but recently there was really no way. Her stomach made it less convenient for her to do a lot of things.
"Miss's belly is like a watermelon." After dressing Mu Rouxi, Qiu Ya glanced at her stomach with wide eyes, and wanted to raise her hand slightly, looking like she wanted to touch it.
Mu Rouxi subconsciously turned sideways to block it, and didn't let Qiu Ya touch it.
Qiu Ya didn't care, she smiled and took her hand, touched her nose, and served Mu Rouxi to wash with a smile.
Here, Mu Rouxi is a person who does not have any right to express her own opinions, and all her food, clothing, housing and transportation are clearly arranged by Jin Qi.
Looking at Mu Rouxi, who was dressed in ginger clothes, Jin Qi smiled with satisfaction and motioned for her to sit opposite him.
"Shen Muzhi arrived at the side of the Tianyan Mountain Cliff, and Jiuyue also followed, it must be a good show." Jin Qi put a chopstick and green vegetables into Mu Rouxi's bowl, and said without raising his head.
Mu Rouxi put the green vegetables on the table with some disgust, and let out a faint sigh.
Jin Qi quietly put a chopstick lotus root into her bowl again, and Mu Rouxi continued to pile it on the table with disgust.
Jin Qi didn't bring a cook, and the meals here were all cooked by Qiu Ya. The taste of Qiu Ya's food is not bad, but the green vegetables and lotus root that Mu Rouxi loves to eat are bland and tasteless, and it is difficult to swallow.
Mu Rouxi noticed it, and didn't bother to say anything, she deliberately avoided these two dishes with her own eyes.
But Jin Qi didn't know about Xiao Jiujiu, he thought that Mu Rouxi was deliberately going against him, and he was immediately angry.
"Mu San, I advise you not to challenge my patience." Jin Qi said, and put another chopstick lotus into her bowl.
Mu Rouxi finally glanced up at Jin Qi, seeing that he was really showing signs of anger, she snatched the chopsticks from his hand.
"Try it yourself." As he spoke, he took a piece of lotus root and handed it to the side of Jin Qi's mouth, causing Jin Qi to suddenly feel a little overwhelmed.
"Open your mouth!" With Mu Rouxi's order, Jin Qi obediently opened his mouth.
Mu Rouxi rudely stuffed the food into it, and gave the order again: "Shut up and eat." ”
Jin Qi's heart suddenly softened into a puddle of water for some reason, he really wanted to be like this with Mu Rouxi forever.
He chewed two bites in a daze, and spit out the thing with a puff, and the lotus root he ate had a faint fishy smell for some reason, the fishy smell like urine.
Jin Qi slapped the table heavily, beckoned Long Si to give a few orders, sat down again, and apologized in a low voice: "It was my negligence!" I'll ask Ryusi to go and get you someone again. ”
Mu Rouxi immediately stopped him: "Forget it, Qiu Ya is very good, she just likes to make some children angry." ”
Qiu Ya's mind is clear, and it is easy to guess, if you change someone, it is absolutely impossible to leave the moon in April, who knows what kind of cow ghost and snake god it is. Mu Rouxi really didn't have the energy to guess anymore.
Long Si, who was just about to leave, was stopped by Jin Qi and ordered a few words.
"Lord Wang, soup ......" Qiu Ya happily went to carry a pot of soup out, but before he finished speaking, he was dragged away by Long Siyi with his arm twisted, and the soup spilled all over the ground.
Mu Rouxi saw that Qiu Ya had become another person with vicious eyes in an instant. Sure enough, as Xiaohe said, there were two people living in Qiu Ya's body.
Of course, this little episode was quickly forgotten.
"It's been a long time since you've been out and about, I'll take you out to watch the show today." Waiting for the sun to be a little less enthusiastic, Jin Qi asked people to set up a carriage and take Mu Rouxi out.
Qiu Ya, who has recovered into a little fool, was also brought along. When you go out, there are always a few people who can take care of Mu Rouxi.
When getting into the car, Qiu Ya accidentally stepped on the corner of Mu Rouxi's skirt, Mu Rouxi glanced at her sideways and didn't say anything. But in his heart, he was secretly vigilant, Qiu Ya's appearance just now was not stupid.
got into the car, Mu Rouxi hung her head all the way, didn't look at Jin Qi, and didn't pay attention to him. She knew in her heart that Jin Qi was going to deal with Amu.
In today's situation, Jin Qi is the one who dominates everything behind the scenes. And she and Amu are just fish on a chopping board for people to slaughter.
It's just that fish and meat like him and Amu are afraid that they are alive, and they can't say that they have to come out and jump.
During these days, Mu Rouxi gradually discovered Jin Qi's secrets, as well as the secrets of the Golden Dragon Guard.
The thing that Jin Qi used to dispatch the Golden Dragon Guardian was a small token, and the token was engraved with a small blood dragon.
Mu Rouxi has only seen it once, and it was the last time when Long Si was dead and unwilling to be a maid, when Jin Qi threw it in her face in anger, Mu Rouxi took the opportunity to take a look.
As for Jin Qi's secret...... Mu Rouxi touched a piece of brocade hidden in her sleeve, and a smile curled up at the corner of her mouth.
It took a long time for the carriage to reach the cliff of Tianqian Mountain, and was helped off by Jin Qi's tough and gentle help, and Mu Rouxi saw Shen Muzhi from a distance, as well as the dragon and tiger guard behind him.
Opposite Shen Muzhi was Jiu Yue.
"Hahaha! Everyone's here! Lord Wang, Mu Rouxi, long time no see. Jiuyue glanced over here, smiling a little enchanting and contemptuous.
Jin Qi wanted to reach out to help Mu Rouxi, but she avoided her. Jin Qi glanced at Shen Muzhi, a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and forcibly took the person into his arms.
Mu Rouxi didn't struggle anymore and walked forward with him. Behind the two of them was a neat golden dragon guard.
Shen Muzhi glanced at Mu Rouxi, suddenly his eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth hooked, his smile was full of anger, and his tone of voice was a little more dangerous: "Let go of Xixi!" ”
As he spoke, his hand moved, and a sharp hairpin came straight towards Jin Qi, bringing a few sizzling sounds that pierced the air.
Jin Qi hugged Mu Rouxi's waist, turned around and dodged, and after standing still, he laughed a few times, and there was mockery in his tone: "Shen Muzhi, you are just like this, you are so disregarding the ...... of the third sister"
Before he finished speaking, he only felt a pain in holding Mu Rouxi's hand. Looking down, it turned out that the hairpin was in Mu Rouxi's hand, and it was inserted in his hand at this time.
"You ......" Jin Qi was really so angry that he couldn't speak, it turned out that Shen Muzhi's hairpin was not aimed at him at all.
"How do we? Well? Rajah? Mu Rouxi said, and with a force, pulled the hairpin out of Jin Qi's hand, and Jin Qi let go of his hand in pain for a while.
At the same time, Shen Muzhi moved, and the Dragon Tiger Guard behind him also moved. April and March looked at each other, and an arrow stepped forward to restrain Jiuyue.
Shen Muyi's white dress was like a nine-day fairy descending to the earth in front of Jin Qi and Mu Rouxi, Mu Rouxi broke free from the shackles and reached out to grab the hand that Shen Muzhi handed her.
The bulky body turned around sensitively, and it was already in the arms of another man.
All of this was only completed in an instant, so fast that Jin Qi and the Golden Dragon Guardian were a little caught off guard.
The situation on the field changed in an instant, Jin Qi glanced at his palm that was almost pierced by Mu Rouxi, and a trace of anger welled up in his eyes.
"Good!" Snorted coldly, he just gestured, and the Golden Dragon Escort behind him was all dispatched.
Long Huwei is not completely here, in terms of numbers, Shen Muzhi and Mu Rouxi have suffered. However, the Dragon Tiger Guard is more flexible than the Golden Dragon Guard, and the two sides are evenly matched.
Shen Muzhi protected Mu Rouxi and gradually withdrew from the two sides of the inextricable fight, and looked at Qiu Ya on the opposite side who was bandaging Jin Qi, and no one could take care of them for the time being.
Only then did Shen Muzhi take out a handkerchief in his arms and gently wiped the sweat on Mu Rouxi's head. Looking at the handkerchief, Mu Rouxi's eyes flickered, but she didn't show it.
There was a slit in the handkerchief, and it looked like it had been pierced. Moreover, that handkerchief was the first handkerchief she gave to Shen Muzhi.
Shen Muzhi squatted down again and touched her belly, and gently kissed her on the top. Mu Rouxi subconsciously took a small step back.
"What's wrong?" Shen Muzhi raised his head, and the sunlight sprinkled on his face, allowing Mu Rouxi to clearly see his entire face.
Mu Rouxi shook her head and chuckled, "It's okay, I'm thinking about the hairpin you threw at me just now!" ”
Just now, the angle and direction of Shen Muzhi throwing the hairpin to her, as well as the direction in which Jin Qi avoided getting out of the way, all happened to allow her right hand to receive the hairpin most accurately.
"Xixi and I can always connect with each other!" He stood up with a smile and hung his head to look at her, a light in his eyes that seemed brighter than the sun.
The corners of Mu Rouxi's mouth hooked, and a look of pride appeared on her little face.
In order to guard against Mu Rouxi, Jin Qi prepared nothing for her, none of which were sharp weapons, causing her to assassinate if she wanted to.
Seeing that Shen Muzhi was a hairpin, where could Mu Rouxi not know his thoughts.
The hairpin is Mu Rouxi's most commonly used weapon.
"When is it, you are still in the mood to be tired and crooked here! It's really a shameless slut, and now that it's dead in my hands, it's a good place. ”
I don't know when Jiuyue, who broke free, suddenly appeared behind the two, she held a long sword, and attacked the two of them fiercely.
Shen Muzhi squeezed Mu Rouxi's hand, pushed her behind him, and greeted him to fight with Jiuyue.
Mu Rouxi touched her stomach, a layer of sweat came out of her head, she was actually really tired, this heavy and heavy belly!
found a tree to lean onto, and Mu Rouxi looked at the fight scene in front of her with a pair of eyes. She suddenly noticed that the Golden Dragon Guardian seemed to have been leading the Dragon Tiger Guard away from them, intentionally or unintentionally.
Mu Rouxi's brows furrowed slightly, and she looked at Jiuyue and Shen Muzhi again. Shen Muzhi always had reservations.
Mu Rouxi hung her head, touched the thing in her sleeve, and closed her eyes slightly.
"In more than thirty days, there are enough things to happen, enough for many things to arise between you and Shen Muzhi. Third sister, today you will understand that I am the only one in this world who protects you wholeheartedly. ”
What Jin Qi said in the carriage suddenly sounded in Mu Rouxi's ears. Somehow the picture of Shen Muzhi not being ruthless to Jiuyue just now appeared in his mind, and his heart clenched violently for a moment.
"Amu......" she muttered in a low voice, then shook her head slightly.
Mu Rouxi opened her eyes, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a smile, so that she would not be distracted. It's just that...... There was a little worry in her eyes again.
The Golden Dragon Guard and the Dragon Tiger Guard had already fought into the forest, and the fight between Shen Muzhi and Jiuyue was completely dominated by Jiuyue's suppression.
Shen Muzhi kept showing mercy and kept retreating. The more Mu Rouxi looked, the tighter her brows wrinkled.
Suddenly, something hit Mu Rouxi's head, and when she looked up, it was a small squirrel, looking at her with wide eyes.
Seeing Mu Rouxi raise her head, it quickly threw a leaf down her face, and then quickly left.
Mu Rouxi stretched out her hand to catch the leaves, which were a leaf of red nanmu, and the fiery red leaves were even more beautiful in the sunset.
She took two steps forward, and looked up at the one in front of her, which was a huge and thick red nanmu tree that was a hundred-year-old tree. She saw another faint shade of red in the leaves that bloomed like flowers.
A stained red that looked like blood was drying up.
The surprise in her eyes flashed, she quickly covered it up, turned around and walked out, and continued to look at Shen Muzhi and Jiuyue who were fighting outside the woods.
Jin Qi, who had been staring at Mu Rouxi, saw her enter the woods and turn around, and a touch of uneasiness suddenly rose in her heart, but it quickly disappeared.
Because he saw the result he wanted, Mu Rouxi really took action to protect Shen Muzhi. It's good to protect it, and it can make it hurt more when she waits!
It turned out that at some point, Shen Muzhi and Jiuyue hit Mu Rouxi with a fight.
Jiuyue raised the sword in his hand and was about to stab at Shen Muzhi, but Shen Muzhi smiled dismally, but he closed his eyes and waited, not resisting.
Mu Rouxi rushed forward in a hurry, and the whole person hugged Jiuyue from behind, holding the sword in her hand with her right hand.
Everyone thought that she was trying to stop Jiuyue, but in the next second, everything was beyond everyone's expectations.
Mu Rouxi's left hand around Jiuyue's neck let go, slapped her back, and pulled her right hand forward, sending her whole person forward.
Poof, the sound of a sword piercing into flesh.
"Xixi, ...... you?" Shen Muzhi's eyes widened, he couldn't look at Mu Rouxi in disbelief, and before he finished speaking, he was thrown to the ground by Jiuyue's corpse.
Jiuyue had a hairpin in his neck, and the hairpin was inserted very deeply, leaving only a begonia flower outside.
The sword in Jiuyue's hand stabbed deeper as she leaned forward, piercing through Shen Muzhi's entire chest, clanging against the stones on the ground.
The fall of the two bodies also smashed a lot of dust on the ground.
Mu Rouxi glanced at the two people on the ground, she didn't speak, she just smiled, with a malicious smile.
She looked at Shen Muzhi on the ground, and gently spit out two words in her mouth: "Traitor." ”
The eyes of the people on the ground widened in fear, and their heads were deflected.
Keenly catching the sound of the squeezing behind her, Mu Rouxi looked at Jin Qi who was in front of her in an instant, her eyes darkened, and she said to the two people on the ground: "Since you betrayed me, then go and die." ”
When Jin Qi ran in front of Mu Rouxi, her expression was dead, she grabbed his arm, and said with a dull look in her eyes: "I believe what you said, take me away." ”
Before Jin Qi could react, Mu Rouxi said again: "I'm fine, get out of here." When she said this, there was a trembling cry in her voice.
Before Jin Qi could speak, a voice as bright as the moon came from behind Mu Rouxi: "Xixi is here, but where do you want me to go?" ”
Mu Rouxi stiffened and turned around, and tears flowed down all of a sudden.
Another Shen Muzhi appeared in front of her, he lost a lot of weight, his chin lost a lot of weight, and he was not as sexy as before. But when he laughed, the hook on the corner of his mouth was even more sexy than before.
His clothes were a little tattered, and the one on his chest was even more torn, revealing a hideous scar inside. The corners of his clothes turned a dirty dark red.
Even so, he just stood there like this, but it was still all the beauty and sorrow of Mu Rouxi.
"Amu!" Mu Rouxi gently covered her mouth with her hand and screamed, and just as she wanted to take a step, she was dragged by Jin Qi.
"Shen Muzhi is seriously injured, if you don't want him to die here, don't move!" Jin Qi's eyes were full of warnings, and he didn't expect that Ying couldn't kill him.
No, it should be said that Shen Muzhi is so blessed and fateful, and he can still not die after being stabbed in the heart.
That night, after settling Mu Rouxi in the bamboo house, Jin Qi found Jiuyue and learned a secret from her.
"Shen Muzhi's shadow is his twin brother. Only my father and Shen Muzhi's father, Shen Yulang, knew about this matter. Is this secret enough for you to spare my life? Jiuyue looked at Jin Qi and talked to him about the conditions.
"It turns out that what Mu Rouxi said is not completely false! You don't have that much affection for Shen Muzhi! Jin Qi smiled a little sarcastically.
Jiuyue was unmoved, she raised her head and smiled charmingly and enchantingly: "I want to be the queen, I want to avenge my family and kill that wolf-hearted thing." Naturally, I will marry another Shen Muzhi, and everything is still mine. And you will truly and completely own Mu Rouxi. Do you want to do this deal? ”
Jin Qi looked at the woman in front of him, and suddenly his heart moved. So there was today's well-arranged drama, but Jin Qi didn't expect these changes to happen.
He didn't expect Shen Muzhi to survive after being stabbed completely defenseless, and he didn't expect Mu Rouxi to be so smart.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and a strange sound came out of Jin Qi's mouth, and Long Yi and Long Er appeared behind Shen Muzhi out of nowhere.
"Third sister, you still ......" Before Jin Qi finished speaking, Shen Muzhi let out an exclamation.
"Be careful!"
Jin Qi turned around and saw Qiu Ya, who had been forgotten by everyone, holding a dagger, and stabbed at Mu Rouxi in a daze.
She appeared so suddenly, no one noticed that Shen Muzhi was still a little far away from her, and it was too late to block the knife for her.
Poof! The dagger was still stuck in the chest.
"Lord Wang! Rajah! How so? No! No! No! Qiu Ya screamed like crazy, and looked at the dagger in her hand in a daze, which was inserted into Jin Qi's chest.
Mu Rouxi, who was knocked to the side by Jin Qi, was also stunned when she was held in her arms by Shen Muzhi.
"Master!" Long Yi was the first to react and stepped forward to support Jin Qi.
"Kill her!" Jin Qi pointed at Qiu Ya and signaled to Long Er, Qiu Ya, who was still in pain, fell down with wide eyes like this.
Holding the hands of his two guards, Jin Qi trembled and walked towards Mu Rouxi. Shen Muzhi just wanted to hold her and retreat, but Jin Qi reached out and took out something from his arms, with a begging look in his eyes.
"Third sister, I'm dying! This time, don't hide from me anymore! Luckily? ”
Mu Rouxi looked at him, tugged Shen Muzhi's hand, and stopped.
"Here you go! Haven't you always wanted either? Jin Qi had a dagger stabbed by Qiu Ya in his chest, and he spat out a mouthful of blood foam.
He stuffed a small gold leaf engraved with a blood dragon into Mu Rouxi's hand: "If anyone bullies you in the future, you will let the golden dragon guards clean him up." If Shen Muzhi loses you, the Golden Dragon Guards will definitely take his life. ”
When Jin Qi said the latter sentence, his eyes looked at Long Yi on the side. Long Yi nodded solemnly, with no expression on his face.
"I can't ......"
Before Mu Rouxi finished speaking, she was interrupted by Jin Qi, who spit out a mouthful of blood, "I didn't give it to you for nothing, I exchanged Jin Longwei for your brother, and you won't be at a loss." ”
Although his tone was weak and arrogant, there was burning longing and begging in his eyes.
A touch of complicated emotions appeared in Mu Rouxi's eyes, and finally she called softly: "Brother." ”
A huge light burst out of Jin Qi's eyes, he raised his hand and gently stroked Mu Rouxi's face, and whispered: "I am also my mother's child." ”
After speaking, his hand slowly slipped down, and there were still two crystal clear teardrops hanging from the corners of his eyes.
Mu Rouxi shook the gold leaf in his hand, asked Long Yi to carry Jin Qi's body into the carriage, and turned around and got into Shen Muzhi's arms.
Shen Muzhi patted her back gently, with a touch of complexity in his eyes.
No one expected that a good show that Jin Qi and Jiuyue put so much effort into setting up would end up with such an ending.
"Go and call the Golden Dragon Guardian back, and the Dragon Tiger Guard." Mu Rouxi calmed down, and ordered Long Er to retreat with an expressionless face.
For a while, only Mu Rouxi and Shen Muzhi were left standing here. The air was silent.
Mu Rouxi suddenly laughed in a low voice, she touched the wound on Shen Muzhi's chest, and said with some joy: "Fortunately, in this world, only I know that Amu's heartbeat is on the right." ”
Shen Muzhi lowered his head and kissed her, and a smile welled up in his eyes: "Fortunately, the left hand is more sensitive than the right hand." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Mu Rouxi stood on tiptoe and kissed his chin.
"Amu's shadow looks really similar to Amu, but it's a pity that his chin and mouth are not as sexy as Amu."
"And he also made a fatal mistake."
"The first handkerchief I gave to Amu, Amu has always carried it on his chest, and he is willing to take it out to wipe my sweat!"
Mu Rouxi's little face this time, what appeared on her little face was real pride.
When a group of tired and injured Dragon Tiger Guards and Golden Dragon Guards came back, they looked at several corpses on the ground with different expressions. Fortunately, they were all highly trained, and no one spoke, waiting for Mu Rouxi's orders.
"Long Yi, lead the way, go to the bamboo house." Mu Rouxi helped Shen Mu, who was a little pale, to get into the carriage and commanded.
When they arrived at the bamboo house, the night was already dark, and Mu Rouxi still called Long Yi and Long Er to bury Jin Qi overnight.
While people were not paying attention, she quietly wrapped the gold leaf in the turmeric brocade and stuffed it back into Jin Qi's hand.
After burying Jin Qi, she looked at the big words "Jin Qi, the son of Hua Allure City" on the tombstone by moonlight, and her eyes were wet somehow.
After wiping it indiscriminately, Mu Rouxi instructed all the people of the Golden Dragon Guard: "All of you have only one task in the future, which is to stay and guard the tomb." ”
The token was put in Mu Rouxi's hands, which was witnessed by Long Yi and Long Er, and the two of them took the lead in responding, and the other dead soldiers, naturally, no one objected.
Mu Rouxi didn't want the Golden Dragon Guard, because it was evidence of Emperor Taizu's disloyalty to Empress Taizu, and she felt uncomfortable looking at it.
There is another reason, Mu Rouxi has a thorn in her heart. Shadow's betrayal, today's scene, Mu Rouxi can guess that there must be Jin Qi's handiwork behind it.
Shen Muzhi's injury, that is something that Mu Rouxi has never been able to forgive Jin Qi in her life. She can cry for Jin Qi's deep attachment to Hua Chengcheng, and similarly, she also has reasons to hate him.
With Dragon Tiger Guard, Mu Rouxi and Shen Muzhi left the Heavenly Damnation Mountain Range overnight and headed towards Cloud City.
Shen Muzhi's injury is not completely healed at all.
