Chapter 444: It's Good to See You Again
Cher suddenly realized that she didn't have the courage to face the scene behind the iron gate.
What will she see, Zhong Limo's corpse, the grief-stricken Min Susu, or the crying heartbreaking Zhong Liyang?
She hesitated, stretched out her hand, and did not dare to land on the heavy iron door.
However, Xue'er hesitated, but the people who followed Xue'er and Zhong Limo didn't dare to hesitate, in this cell, it was clear that only Nanping's Ling King Zhong Limo and Ling Princess Min Susu were imprisoned, why did they listen to it at this moment, it seemed that there was one more person?
They can't afford it!
In an uproar, the person who followed Xuanyuan Yu had already turned out the key, unlocked it with trembling hands, and pushed open the door.
For a moment, including Xuanyuan Yu, they all looked like they were facing a great enemy, protecting Xue'er behind them, only Xue'er's gaze was nervously staring at the iron door that was gradually being pushed open, as if watching the giant mouth of a giant beast gradually open.
The cells were small and windowless, except near the roof, where there was a palm-sized air window, which was the only source of light.
Because when Xuanyuan Yu came out of the Nanping Palace with Xue'er, it was already close to dusk, so the light projected at this moment was better than nothing.
The cell was dim, and at first glance, it was impossible to see anything clearly.
Someone handed over the torch, and by the light of the fire, Xue'er saw the situation in the cell clearly, and saw a figure, lying upright on the grass on the ground, and another man and a woman, kneeling on both sides of him, without hiding their sorrow, even the sound of the door being opened could not make them look back, as if the "person" on the ground was all they had!
Xue'er glanced at Xuanyuan, but saw that the latter was frowning, and asked the soldier holding the torch beside him, "What's the matter?" β
The soldier's face was extremely pale under the light of the torch, and even his lips trembled slightly: "Back to Your Highness, what a ...... One more. β
In a place like the prison, some people run away and some rob the prison, so many times there will be "less" one person, but this "more" person, is it because he thinks that he has a long life and lives too freely and wants to taste the taste of the prison?
Xuanyuan's face was tense, and she couldn't see the change in her expression, but Xue'er's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the person who came out "more".
Before the door of the prison was opened, she felt that the voice was familiar, and now that she saw the figure, it felt even more familiar.
Zhong Liyang, shouldn't he be waiting for his news outside Ruiyang City?
Xue'er was confused here, but Xuanyuan Yu lowered her voice again and asked, "I'm asking you, what's wrong with Zhong Limo?" β
The iron door was opened, and someone had already rushed in, controlling Zhong Liyang and Min Susu respectively, and at the same time checking Zhong Limo, who was lying upright on the ground, replied at this moment: "Back to Your Highness, this person has killed himself!" β
Xue'er's heart finally sank completely, what she was worried about really happened, she couldn't imagine that Zhong Limo was so strong, he would rather die than surrender!
Mourning is greater than heart death, it is Zhong Liyang and Min Susu, from the iron door of the cell was opened, from beginning to end, these two people's eyes have never left Zhong Limo on the ground, even if someone stepped forward and cut their hands to hold them, it was like walking corpses.
Xuanyuan Yu instructed: "Go and see that person, if you can save it, you can save ......"
If you can't, it's natural, and you don't have to work in vain.
Although Xuanyuan Yu didn't say this, everyone present knew it in their hearts.
Cher stepped forward: "Let me go." β
Xuanyuan Yu frowned slightly, and was about to open his mouth to stop it, when Zhong Liyang and Min Susu, who were detained, heard the sound, they had already looked in the direction of Xue'er at the same time.
"It's ...... you"
Min Susu's voice was still crying, and his voice was very hoarse and ugly, and even vicious: "Shen Yixue, you disaster star, it's all you!" β
"If it weren't for you, if you had to follow the prince to my Nanping, how could you attract Dongling's army, how could Ruiyang be broken, and how could Nanping die?"
Her voice suddenly became sharp, and she suddenly began to struggle violently, as if she wanted to rush to Cher from the two hands holding her and tear Cher to pieces!
However, Min Susu is just a weak woman after all, and it is futile to struggle for a long time, she can only use a pair of resentful, bloodshot eyes, staring at Xue'er, and her hoarse voice is like a cracked silk: Lord, Lord, Lord, he will not die! You slut, Shen Yixue, you slut......"
Xuanyuan's brows furrowed even tighter, and he said coldly: "Shut her mouth!" β
The voice immediately stopped abruptly, leaving only the woman's hysterical struggle and hateful gaze.
Xue'er couldn't bear to see it: "Xuanyuan ......"
Xuanyuan Yu's face was expressionless: "Don't worry, I won't embarrass her for the time being!" β
Xue'er lowered her head, and when she passed in front of Min Susu, she found that her face was haggard, her expression was embarrassed, her sideburns were scattered, and because of the vigorous struggle, her clothes were open, revealing a touch of snow white on her chest.
However, she didn't care about it at all, just staring at Xue'er with a pair of eyes, as if she was ready to rush forward at any moment and bite off a piece of meat from Xue'er's body!
And Zhong Liyang on the side was speechless from beginning to end, his expression was blank, his eyes were empty, like dead ashes of rotten wood, twisting his neck, as if he was looking at Zhong Limo on the ground, and as if he was looking at the void behind Zhong Limo.
"I took advantage of you." As Xue'er passed in front of him, Zhong Liyang suddenly said in a low voice, "However, I'm sorry, I won't say it." β
Xue'er paused in her footsteps and turned her head to look at Zhong Liyang, but the latter had already closed his eyes tightly, and even his mouth was tightly pursed.
He didn't want to talk to himself anymore.
Xue'er sighed, facing the "culprit" of the country's ruin, she really had nothing to say, and she also had nothing to say.
The three words "I'm sorry" lingered between Xue'er's lips and teeth for a long time, but after all, she couldn't blurt it out, the country was broken, the family was dead, and even the most beloved brother killed himself, what is the use of a "I'm sorry", it can't save Nanping's defeat and Zhong Limo's life.
Xue'er bit her lip, glanced at Zhong Liyang deeply, and was about to walk in when she raised her foot, but Zhong Liyang suddenly said loudly: "Miss Shen, for the sake of the sixth brother who once helped you, please leave him a whole corpse!" β
"Zhong Liyangβ"
Min Susu snorted, and actually spit out the rags that blocked her mouth, and her sharp but hoarse voice immediately interrupted Zhong Liyang: "What do you ask her to do, I don't allow you to beg this slut!" β
Xue'er's footsteps stopped again, and when she looked back again, Xuanyuan Yu had already ordered someone to take Min Susu down!
Min Susu's mouth was also firmly blocked again, and she couldn't make a sound.
Xue'er turned her gaze to Xuanyuan, who had a cold face, but her eyes were looking into the cell and she didn't say a word.
Zhong Liyang was also taken down.
Xue'er knew that she couldn't change Xuanyuan's mind, so she sighed deeply in her heart, and finally walked into the cell where Zhong Limo and Min Susu were imprisoned.
The light in the cell was dim, and Xue'er squatted down to see the wound on Zhong Limo's body.
When he was imprisoned, he should have no blade on his body, so he killed himself with a golden hairpin, which must have been taken off Min Susu's head, and was being held tightly in his hand at the moment, and it had already been soaked in blood, and he couldn't see the original color.
He should have stabbed the heart with a golden hairpin, and before his last breath dissipated, he immediately pulled it out vigorously, blood gushed out with the wound, splashing everywhere, and his chest was completely soaked, a cold and sticky wet.
The smell of blood rushed to his face, and the Chinese wanted to vomit.
However, Xue'er didn't realize it, in front of her eyes, the scene of Zhong Limo's flying knife splitting the horse always unconsciously appeared, as well as the sentence "Rather than broken jade".
He did these four words, as evidenced by the blood all over the ground.
It's just that, Nanping, this country that he has paid countless efforts to, still can't escape the fate of destruction after all!
Presumably he still has regrets in his heart, right? Otherwise, why are his eyes still so wide at this moment? Are you worried about the next fate of Nanping, or are you worried about the people of Nanping?
Xue'er squatted down, stretched out her hand, and stroked it in front of Zhong Limo's eyes. She wanted to say something, but neither in her heart nor in her mouth, she couldn't say a word.
The next moment, her wrist was tightly grasped by the hand that had been stained with blood, and a faint voice came: "Miss Shen......"
Xue'er was taken aback and instinctively retracted, but she didn't expect that the next moment she would bring Zhong Limo, who was lying on the ground, to move!
Only then did she realize that Zhong Limo hadn't completely swallowed her breath!
Xue'er didn't know what to do for a while, and Xuanyuan Yu at the door noticed something strange and was ready to rush in.
Zhong Limo's mouth moved, and suddenly blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and he opened it vigorously, like a fish out of water, making a faint voice: "It's good to see you......"
The short six words almost exhausted the strength of his whole body, and before Xue'er could taste the meaning, his hand loosened weakly, "plopped", and hung to the ground, and even his eyes slowly closed.
Most of his face was covered with blood, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
When Xuanyuan Yu rushed in, Zhong Limo had already swallowed his last breath, and he really swallowed his breath, and that shallow smile was fixed on his face forever.
Xue'er's hand kept the movement of blindfolding Zhong Limo's eyes unchanged, but she clearly sensed the temperature on his face, and gradually became cold.
Xuanyuan Yu was relieved to see that Xue'er was fine.
He squatted down and helped Cher up: "That's fine, for him, maybe it's the best ending." β
Xue'er let Xuanyuan Yu help herself up until she walked out of the iron door of the cell, and all that echoed in her mind was Zhong Limo's sentence "The jade is broken......
As for Zhong Limo's last words before he died, Xue'er felt that it should be his nonsense under excessive blood loss and delirium.
Xue'er sighed and said to Xuanyuan: "Xuanyuan, since the person is dead, let's leave him a whole corpse!" β
She couldn't rescue Zhong Limo, so she naturally had to do her best for Zhong Liyang's last request.
Xuanyuan Yu's expression rarely fluctuated, and he looked back at Zhong Limo's corpse, which was already the outline of the cell: "He is a hero of Nanping, and he deserves a thick burial!" β
