Chapter Eighty-Four: Gu Poison
At the moment, I am running at a high speed, so I don't have so much mind to think about too many things.
However, this incident must be inseparable from Qianshanmen.
Because, in my opinion, these strange humans behind me who are rushing after me seem to have been poisoned by some kind of poison.
That's why their actions and words become so orderly and coordinated.
And if you want to use Gu poison to make such a large number of human beings fall into a state of submission, you need not only strong manpower, but also strong financial resources.
Otherwise, just buying Gu poison alone would make many small and medium-sized sects bankrupt.
Therefore, this incident will definitely have a close connection with Qianshanmen.
Just as I was thinking about the problem, I suddenly came to the vicinity of the bridge across the river without realizing it.
This place is very familiar to me, because a long time ago, when I first came to Jijiang City, I once took a hearse to death because of that strange old man.
And the last place where the hearse crashed was on this bridge across the river.
If it weren't for my quick action and quick response at that time, I am afraid that I would have gone to the underworld to report at that time.
However, after seeing the bridge across the river, I suddenly thought of a good way to escape.
After all, the people behind were menacing, and judging from their eyes and long armor, they were definitely temporarily trapped in the state of the living dead.
In this state, no matter what the big reason, it will definitely not play any role.
So, instead of wasting words on nothing, I should first run away from their pursuit, and then look for an opportunity to find out what happened.
Thinking of this, I no longer hesitated, but ran all the way in the direction of the bridge across the river.
Although the length of the bridge can connect both ends of the riverbank, the height is only more than 10 meters.
Although at this height, an ordinary person jumping down will suffer a lot of damage.
However, with my cultivator's body, it was not difficult to fall into the water safely from this height.
With this in mind, I didn't hesitate and rolled over the guardrail of the bridge.
Then he jumped and jumped directly into the river more than ten meters below.
Although the moment my body touched the water, it did produce some unbearable pain.
However, the pain does not last long and is fleeting.
As for me, I floated up from under the water with my limbs slightly, and then checked the movement on the bridge across the river.
Sure enough, those people who were acting strangely at this moment slowly stopped chasing me after seeing me jump into the water.
However, everyone lying on the guardrail was staring at me in the water with their dark green eyes.
Seeing them do this, a slight smile rose on the corner of my mouth, and then I swam away from the bridge with my limbs.
Probably because the weather was so cold that the river was so cold that I suddenly felt a pinprick in my arms as I swam around, and then my hands swung uncontrollably.
Then the strange feeling spread to my legs, and in a short time, my limbs fell into a state of "paralysis", and I fluttered in the water in an irregular way, looking like I was drowning from a distance.
It didn't take long for my whole body to lose the buoyancy support of my limbs, and then I sank uncontrollably to the bottom.
Realizing that something was wrong with the momentum, I hurriedly used the aura in my body that was still functioning to activate the method of turtle breath.
After all, the most dangerous thing for a person after sinking into the water is that the water enters the airway due to poor breathing.
At this moment, I only need to activate the method of turtle breath to avoid this problem.
And, with the help of the Turtle Breath Method, even if I sink to the bottom of the river, I will still be safe.
After a few seconds or so, the Turtle Breath Technique in my body was activated. But on the other hand, after I used up all the energy in my body, my mind suddenly became blurred.
Even now, I am constantly feeling the stimulation from the cold river around me, but the symptoms of trance have not been alleviated.
Within a few minutes, my eyes slowly closed together because of the heaviness, and I fell into a coma
When I opened my eyes again, I suddenly found that now I was lying quietly in the Red Refining Ghost Mansion.
As for the clothes on his body that were soaked by the river, they have also been successfully replaced.
And sitting next to my bed was Ke Meng, who had just established a relationship with me.
At this moment, Ke Meng is holding his chin with one hand, and his eyes are slightly closed on the edge of my bed. And her tired appearance is very pitiful.
"Ke Meng." Gently grabbing Ke Meng's palm, I whispered with a weak breath.
"Hmm~, Ouyang, you're finally awake." Awakened from his sleep by my words, Ke Meng looked at me in front of him with an excited face, and then said with a wry smile.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry, seeing how tired you look, you better go back to your room and rest for a while." Affectionately pinched Ke Meng's face, and I replied with a smile.
"Are you alright? You've been in a coma for four days, how can there be no problems? The doctor said that if you don't wake up in five days, your life will be in danger, do you know how worried I am about you these days? You know, how stupid things you do? After listening to my words, Ke Meng's expression suddenly became angry, and he immediately scolded me.
Although her words sounded particularly harsh, I could feel a strong love from her harsh words.
However, to my surprise, I have been in a coma for four days.
In my impression, I jumped off the bridge across the river should have been last night, why did it take four days to pass in the blink of an eye?
"Did I do something stupid?" For the time being, I didn't have too many worries about being in a coma, but now what surprised me the most was the "stupid thing" that I did in Ke Meng's mouth.
"What did you do that you don't even remember?" As soon as the words came out, Ke Meng patted his head with a sudden realization, and immediately teased: "By the way, your brain is in water, so it's normal not to remember." ”
"Didn't you get a puff of green smoke from a guy at the Halloween party that night? After that, your emotions started to get irritable, do you remember? After that, Ke Meng blinked her eyes and stared at me in front of her tightly, as if I would leave her again if I was not careful.
"I remember, because I was thinking about things at that time, and suddenly I was teased, and my heart naturally felt uncomfortable, so it was normal for my mood to become irritable." With a wry smile, I whispered back.
"Well, after you became irritable, your whole behavior became weird. At first, you spin around in circles without nonsense, then look around at the situation around you, and after that, some gibberish words pop out of your mouth. What's even worse is that you grabbed an innocent passerby and beat him wantonly. At this point, Ke Meng's expression suddenly became angry.
"After that, we thought your spirit was stimulated. So they hurriedly surrounded you in a corner, trying to subdue you and take you to the hospital for treatment. But at this time, you actually took out the burning rune and threw it at the crowd, and in order to avoid injury, the crowd avoided it to both sides. You, on the other hand, took advantage of this gap to escape from the trail that avoided, and ran all the way up the bridge. As the words continued to blurt out, the sighs in Ke Meng's mouth continued to increase.
"I thought you would stop on the bridge for a while, but who knew you would jump straight down. Seriously, jumping from such a high place didn't knock you out, and it was really your life. Ke Meng pinched my arm hatefully, and then continued to explain: "After seeing you sink into the river, we found the nearby police and rescued you from the bottom of the river. After that, you remain in a coma and do not wake up until you have just woken up. ”
After listening to Ke Meng's words, my whole person suddenly became surprised.
If I'm not mistaken, I ran away because the people around me had become weird in an instant.
Moreover, the reason why I used runes was because all the people around me at that time had become murderous living dead.
Besides, if it weren't for the fact that they kept yelling for me to be their kind, I wouldn't have been so flustered.
And jumping off the bridge across the river is completely an act of self-help when I am in an emergency, not an arrogant act when I am crazy.
"Ke Meng, what you said is all true?" Instinctively asked, and my eyes stared at Ke Meng in front of me.
After all, the answer from Ke Meng now has a completely different result from my own personal experience, so I have to figure things out.
"It's absolutely true, and it's not mixed with the slightest bit of water." As soon as Ke Meng's words came out, my expression became heavier and heavier.
If all the things described in Ke Meng's mouth are true, then it proves that the person who was poisoned by Gu that day was not a citizen, but me.
That's why I mistake the living humans in front of me for the murderous living dead.
And looking back at what I experienced, the only thing that could cause me to be poisoned was the strange man with the mask at that time.
At first, I felt that the green smoke was not quite right, but because I was thinking about the strangeness of my surroundings, I gave it a chance.
Now that I think about it, it was after the smoke appeared, everything I saw in front of me changed dramatically.
Just as my thoughts were fluctuating, my door was suddenly pushed open, and then Su Yun ran in from outside the door, and explained breathlessly: "Ke Meng, I still haven't found Liu Daring and Xu Kun, they have been missing for four days, where did they go?" ”
