Chapter 104: Investigation and Killing (5)
At some point, tears blurred my vision.
"Sultan," the grandson dropped his long sword and carefully held my face with both hands, "I'm sorry, I have too many karma in this life, I'm afraid I'm destined to fail you." ”
"Don't! I don't want to listen to you say this! I grabbed his hand, and the hot tears had slid down my cheeks to the corners of my lips, seeping into my lips and teeth.
"Nonsense!" The grandson and grandson all laughed, and there was endless tenderness in their dark eyes, looking at me.
After a while, he raised his hand and slowly wiped away the teardrops from the corners of my eyes, "You have to promise me that if I am gone, you will use your eyes to see all the flowers and clouds for me, and use your senses to feel the cold and summer heat of winter for me, spring to autumn, okay?" ”
"Don't say it," I said, and I turned around and covered my ears with my back to him, "I said, don't listen to you!" ”
"Sultan," the grandson smiled bitterly, "I know you can't understand it now, but since ancient times, the monarch let his ministers die and his ministers have to die, and this is my fate." ”
"No," I shook my head slightly, my eyes firm, "I don't believe in this so-called fate, I'm going to take you away!" It's a big deal that I will break out with you and capture the priest first, I don't believe that as long as the priest is in our hands, those people will dare to take us! ”
With that, I turned around.
At this time, I don't know if it was because I was too emotional, I only felt an inexplicable dizziness on the top of my head, and I stumbled involuntarily with my heels.
"Sultan!" Gong's grandson exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly took me into his arms, "How are you?" You okay? ”
"No..." I saw a double image in front of my eyes, and when I looked at my grandson again, my chest began to churn.
What's going on? Could it be that he didn't rest well and touched the wound?
I rubbed my sore temples and struggled to get up.
At this moment, my throat suddenly overflowed with a hint of fishy sweetness.
Immediately, there was a stagnation in my chest, and a mouthful of dark red blood spurted out of my mouth, and the crimson color fell all over my clothes, as if a large demon lotus had bloomed on my chest.
"You... You... How so? Gongsun Zidu's voice trembled, and his hands hugged me tightly, as if he was afraid that I would suddenly disappear in the next second, and said sadly, "How can this be? Ju Yu, that woman, did you lie to me? She promised me..."
"What did you say?" I was slightly stunned, and then I pushed my grandson away with great difficulty, and met the eyes that were extremely sad, "What did you just say?" Ju Yu? What did she promise you? ”
The grandsons were silent, and their hearts were painful.
"You... Ahem! "My heart moved, and then I couldn't help but start coughing up blood.
Even though I covered my lips with my hands, dark red blood was dripping from my fingertips, and in a few moments it was already staining the hem of my clothes blood.
"Don't be afraid, I'll take you to that woman, if she dares not to save you, I'll kill her!" At this moment, the usual calm eyes of the grandson have completely lost their normality, and the rest is boundless horror.
Then the fingers on my waist suddenly tightened, and he hugged me to get up.
I took the opportunity to catch Gongsun Zidu's clothes, tilted my head and said tentatively, "Gongsun, you tell me honestly, today you are bent on death, is such an abnormality related to me and that Mrs. Juyu?" ”
The grandson buried his head deep in his chest and did not make a sound.
"You say!" I exhaled softly, the corners of my mouth opening and closing so hard that the drops of blood hanging from my jaw slid down my neck and into my clothes.
At this time, Gongsun Zidu raised his head and gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "It's all my fault, it was I who didn't protect you well to make you fall for the trick, and someone planted Gu poison on your body!" ”
"What did you say?" I was shocked and coughed again.
Seeing this, my grandson immediately hugged me and got up to walk outside the smoke forest.
"Wait," I said, tugging at the hem of his shirt to make him stand on his feet, before gasping slightly, "you haven't told me what the hell is going on!" Why was I poisoned? ”
The grandson closed his eyes in pain.
After a moment, he carefully placed me on a stone bench outside the smoke forest, and then took out a dark yellow sheepskin book in his bosom and handed it to me.
"It's... What is the list of pharmacies? With my blood-stained fingertips, I gently brushed the words "List of Medicines" on the thin sheet.
Then, my fingers opened the first page, the second page...
It wasn't until there was a page left empty behind those dense names that he froze suddenly.
Because at this moment, on the sheepskin thin paper that appeared in front of my eyes, a line of words was written with a charcoal pen: The Su woman has been hit by the snake Gu, and wants to save her life, go to the Zhao State Commonwealth, and then the concubine is going to the palace, the doctor wants to get the antidote to the Gu medicine, you must listen to it, otherwise the Gu eyes on the Su woman's ears will be the moment when she dies.
Gu eyes on the ears?
My fingers trembled uncontrollably, and I touched my ears, eventually revealing a small piece of hard stuff on my right earlobe.
"So, you refused to leave just to wait for Ju Yu to come and ask her for an antidote?"
My grandson frowned and stretched out his hand to help me.
I leaned away from his fingers and smiled dismally, "I see, I caused it!" ”
"No, Sultan. It's none of your business, it's not you who damn it! Gong Sun Zidu stared at me with a pair of bloodshot eyes, "This morning, when I ordered the people from the pharmacy to come, they were actually Ju Yu's people, I was afraid that after I left, they would turn back and harm you, so I ordered Jing Yu to strictly prohibit you from leaving the house, originally planned to let you go with Prince Xianyu after getting the antidote to the Gu poison on your body, but I didn't expect that the priest was treacherous in order to force me to hand over Mr. Chaoyang, so that Zhao Guogong went to Lingquan Temple. ”
"But why do you believe so strongly in Juyu? Didn't you think she might be lying to you? ”
"The truth is in front of you," the grandson smiled bitterly, raised his hand and gently wiped the blood stain on my chin, "Also, in fact, I saw the red dot on your ear yesterday, but I didn't know it at that time, it was actually a life-threatening Gu poison!" ”
"But I also remember what you said, Gu is like a monster in a box, and no one in it can escape death, maybe the so-called antidote to Gu is just talking, maybe she just lures you out with this, how can you trust Ju Yu?"
"What if that's true?" The grandson looked at me fixedly, and the thin lips of the rose under the bridge of Yingting's nose opened slightly, "I don't know how true or false what Ju Yu said, but judging from the fate of the little guy who reported the false letter, I must not let go of any hope, even if she wants to take my life!" ”
"You fool! Have you ever thought about me? If I knew that I would have survived with your life, then I might as well die! ”
The stinging pain in my eyes was terrible, and I didn't know if the so-called snake Gu in my body had started to do something, and my heart was like knocking over a bottle of miscellaneous flavors, half bitter and half sour.
"Don't worry," as if he had read my thoughts, the grandson gently put his hand on the top of my head and slowly leaned down, so that his gaze was parallel to mine, before he pulled out a smile of comfort, "I will get the antidote, and my life will not be handed over to her like this, so don't worry." ”
"Gongsun..."I raised my eyes, my fingers unconsciously pinching his coat, "But, isn't Ju Yu a witch?" Why is she dealing with you? ”
After hearing me ask this, my grandson was stunned.
After a long time, his voice stiffened, "You don't know, Ju Yu is actually a woman who likes to compete for fame, she single-handedly planned the calculation of the Youlin, and after knowing the king's intention to get rid of me, it is not surprising that she has taken action." ”
"But I know that the witches have always wanted to get rid of me." Whether it was the black-clothed killer of the so-called Tianji Tower in Xianyu, or the witch cult who followed me in the Bamboo Garden, they seemed to have only one purpose, that is... Kill me!
The big hand that my grandson put on top of my head gently rubbed mine, sighed in a low voice and said, "It's come to this, there are some things I want to do... It's time to tell you. ”
"What?" I raised my eyebrows in confusion.
Seeing my appearance, the grandson said with a slight apology in his expression, "Actually, when I was in Zhuyuan, I didn't kill the witch cult people who attacked you immediately. ”
I looked at my grandson and didn't say anything for a while, but I didn't seem surprised when I heard his words.
He was surprised, "Don't you ask me why?" ”
I raised my hand to wipe the corners of my lips that had become a little tight due to the dried blood, and chuckled, "There's nothing to ask about, because if it were a different person, I would do the same, after all, there is suddenly an extra person around me, so it's normal to be more careful!" ”
"Ahem!" Gongsun Du's face was unnatural and coughed slightly, and he said, "At that time, I was just curious about your identity, so I imprisoned them for interrogation, and after asking them, I learned that you are not only the crown princess of Xianyu, but also seem to be related to a certain advisor surnamed Shen in the witch cult." ”
"So, you knew my identity early on?" I raised my eyebrows, a slight hint of disbelief in my eyes, "It's just... A strategist surnamed Shen? ”
Who's that?
I searched around in my mind, but I didn't have a clue, because next to me, not to mention the strategist surnamed Shen, even the person surnamed Shen, I only knew Shen Xiao.
But how could Shen Xiao be some kind of strategist in the witch cult? It's absolutely impossible!
Gong's grandson stared at him, as if sighing, "At that time, I saw that you often looked resolute, and I was curious about what happened to you, and later when I heard you beg me to save Zhongli Monarch, I completely understood your identity, but... None of that matters anymore. ”
"Gongsun, I..."
I wanted to say that I didn't mean to deceive him.
Gongsun didn't give me a chance to speak, just gently hugged me into his arms, and said in a firm voice, "I can definitely save you, believe me." ”
