Chapter 134: Concealment

For example, after a spring rain, Gu Xi pulled her to squat on the edge of the spring forest, watched the round mushrooms slowly emerge from the grass with white spots, propped herself up, and then opened the snow-white small umbrella above. Yun Yanzheng felt that they were like two children who had not yet grown up at this moment, doing something that others thought was boring, but it seemed that as long as they were with Gu Yi, everything would become full of indescribable fun.

Although they squatted by the grass for a long time, they were always able to talk about something, you said, I said, there was always something to say, something to talk about. Even just sitting quietly on a bamboo chair holding a paper umbrella, listening to the sound of the rain, drenching the rain, and looking at each other's expressions is a kind of endless fun. It seems that as long as you are with him, everything will become interesting, and even that time seems to be able to go back to the time when you were a naughty child, and you are not afraid of being ridiculed by the other party, and do things that seem silly, stupid, but want to do something to try.

After watching the mushrooms grow, it is natural to pick them. Then let Zhusheng go to fetch the pheasant and hare back, Xiaolan diligently dissected and cleaned, and Gu Xi cooked a delicious meal to sacrifice her five internal organs temple.

In view of the fact that the scars on her face have not yet grown, Gu Xi's meal is all vegetarian stewed and clear soup, although there are a few regrets and some unfinished dishes, but it still makes her full and delicious.

Gu Xi looked at her embarrassed eating appearance and laughed in a low voice. When Yun Yanzheng raised his eyes to look over, he vaguely felt that there was some happiness in his smile. It's not that she doesn't have doubts in her heart, as usual, the person who feels happy and satisfied at this moment should be her. Why does he seem to be more smug than she is? Could it be that the fact that she could cook a meal to comfort her in the Five Organs Temple would make Gu Xi feel satisfied. If this idea is true, then she feels a lot of sweetness in her heart.

The moon is in the middle of the sky, it is as round as a jade plate, and it is the fifteenth day of the day.

In a hidden cave in the mountains in the distance, Gu Xi tied his long black hair into a bun high, fixed it with a wooden hairpin, and sat cross-legged on a futon. In front of him was a wooden plate of rustic color, and his back was a little thin and lonely in a broad white dress, and if you looked closely at his face that had completely washed away the disguise at the moment, you would find that it was as pale and haggard as broken jade. The smooth and round chin has become sharp like a knife, the original delicate and moist skin has become more and more dry and dull, and the curvature of the corners of the eyes has become more and more slender due to emaciation.

The cool spring breeze gently stirred through the white tulip, and the full moon outside the cave slowly shifted to the west side of the black and blue night sky, reflecting the floating clouds, showing a special brightness.

When the time had come, Su Shu quietly stood outside the cave covered by a tortuous tulip, quietly looking at the moonlight in the sky that was so beautiful that it led people to reverie, but his heart was already turbulent.

In such a moonlight, is the drunken man in the mountains already asleep peacefully?

And the people in the cave here, the suffering is just about to beginβ€”

There was a low, muffled grunt from inside the fire-lit cave, followed by the faint sound of liquid dripping into the water of the wooden plate.

The fire in the cave was dim in the lamps that looked like stars, reflecting the half-filled water in the wooden plate, like a vermilion bronze mirror. His face was reflected in the water, blurry and bloody, and the bright red color filled the clear pure water, as if someone had poured fresh red dye into this water in a slender way, turning into red clouds one by one, and the whole water was no longer clear, and even completely crimson.

The color in the water became darker and darker, vermilion, crimson, crimson, crimson, and finally the water was so thick that it was no longer possible to see the original color, and it was almost black and purple.

The blood from his mouth continued to overflow, and even though he was a skilled doctor, he couldn't stop the flow of this blood. Otherwise, Gu poison will attack his heart, and his body will decay and decay faster.

The pupils of the eyes are still dark, and at this moment they are slightly moistened, which looks particularly soft and soft. Slightly raised and thin lips like frost, because of the smudge of blood, like the enchanting brightness of flowers when they bloom to the extreme. Under the light, his face became more and more pale like porcelain, as if he would be broken into thousands of pieces as long as he fell gently, but at this moment, he was dressed like snow and leaned over to sit quietly in front of the wooden plate and spilled blood, which looked gorgeous and lonely, but there was no trace of decadence and impatience.

The night passed by the blood in his body by the minute, his warm body gradually became cold, his fingers gradually became like frozen ice cubes, gradually lost his usual sensitivity and flexibility, and a paralyzing pain in his whole body trembled out from the depths of his heart, and transmitted to every nerve, every meridian, every blood vein, every viscera, every corner of the body.

Seventeen or eighteen furnaces in the cave were scattered in all corners, burning orange flames in a circle around him, and the hard mountain stone was constantly heating up, but it still couldn't warm his body, which was gradually cold because he had lost too much blood.

The body gradually became stiff, and the clear face was like a broken porcelain at the moment, covered with tiny pale black flowers and leaves, but the smile on his face was still as soft as a spring breeze in March. The pale silk garment was already stained with blood, as if from his pale and almost transparent skin had blossomed these brilliant flowers, and vines spread out, emerging from between the light clothes and growing all over his body.

For more than a year, every month on a full moon night, he had to experience such a bloody death from midnight to midnight.

The time has passed, and the blood is finally no longer raging and overflowing.

Gu Xi took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve and gently wiped the corners of his lips and chin. Then with the last bit of vitality, he took off the bloody clothes on his body, changed into the clothes that had been prepared for a long time, held on to the stone wall on the side, and lay down on the soft cloth cushion of clean incense with danger and trembling, and quietly opened his eyes to see the undulating stone patterns on the top of the cave.

Soon, a call sounded outside the cave.

He whispered, "Alright, come in." ”

Su Shu brushed aside the thick flower branches, walked in with light and silent steps, and stood respectfully in front of the cave door. It was not the first time he had seen such a scene, and for more than a year, he had almost been serving his son's daily life and food. He must deal with the blood Gu backlash suffered by Childe very carefully, and he can't let the slightest rumor from inside and outside, and he can't let others guess the slightest clue.

For more than a year, Gongzi has been hiding in the city, hiding and hiding, just to avoid the prying eyes of others.

"Does Childe have any other orders?" Su Shu asked softly, looking at the blood that was thicker than in the past tonight, and secretly blamed his son-in-law for not drinking yesterday. These Gu poisons are the best way to use the alcohol to attack upwards, since the battle with that person back then, the childe's body was damaged, and he has completely quit yellow soup.

Now it's good, I like a woman who is greedy for wine, and the son doesn't even care about his body, and he has to accompany her to drink and dispel his sorrows from time to time.

"Handle things as you used to, and don't leave suspicious clues." His voice commanded calmly, without the slightest rise or fall. It seems that he has never paid attention to the Gu poison on his body at all, nor has he taken the matter of the Gu poison more and more violent tonight because he has not swept away the interest in drinking.

Su Shu looked at the blood on the wooden plate and the bright red blood clothes on the ground, and hesitated in his heart: "Childe, you don't plan to tell the eldest princess of Fengwu?" If you hadn't used your blood qi to nourish the Blood Gu and remove the puppet Gu for her, you wouldn't have suffered the backlash of the Weeping Blood Beads, and you wouldn't have to suffer the same sin every month. ”

"You don't need her to know, I am the one who chooses to solve the Gu for her, and I already know the consequences that I will bear after solving the Gu." His tone was slow and methodical, his words were full of indifference and seemed to carry a trace of endless tenderness, and her free and easy smile seemed to appear in his clear eyes. She was a woman who was tossing and turning on the ever-changing battlefield, and she couldn't get the trust of her brother and the emperor after her hard work, and she was already sad and tired. There is no need to worry and sorrow her, carry guilt, and increase the burden because of my affairs. ”

"Childe is not worried, will the eldest princess of Fengwu be an enemy of Childe in the future?" Su Shu asked puzzledly, his eyes full of care for Gu Xi.

"In this world, there are always some people who make you feel happy, who really want to do something for her, who wants her to be safe, happy, and get what she wants. Naturally, I will expect her sincere return, but I don't want to use what I do as a kind of support to force others to give their feelings. What's more, it is not easy to change her mind, which will make the original precious relationship unrecognizable or even fragmented, and sometimes I have to face my gains and losses calmly. He said lightly, with a kind of mellow sharpness in his tone.

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Gu Xi's lips, as if there was a hint of loneliness and happiness on his cheeks, slowly spreading into his eyes, and it seemed to have a hint of pride. When talking about the person in his heart, his expression was doting and cherishing, and his tone was full of tenderness: "What's more, the three armies can win the commandery, but the horseman can't win the ambition, and some people might as well kill her if they destroy her faith." ”

At this moment, the night sky was full of bright and clear light, but Yun Yanzheng couldn't sleep. Turned over and walked by the spring forest, but unexpectedly found Xiaolan and Zhusheng whispering something on the riverbank.

She didn't make any effort to listen to what they were saying, but inadvertently approached, letting their words drift into her overly sensitive ears. What they said before, she didn't pay attention, but what Zhu Sheng said, at first hearing, she didn't think so, but with the footsteps of the gradual distance, only to finally come back to what kind of sentence it was.

"Childe started wine tasting back then, and he liked to eat with wine, just to vote for that woman's preference, what do you have to complain about?"

Back then, that woman, what she liked? It means that Gu Xiben didn't like or care about drinking, and later learned it for someone, a certain woman? That woman, refers to the woman he wanted to give her "Fengxiang Qingyin" but didn't send it out, and he brewed peach blossom wine for her but buried it deep under the camellia tree?

Is she dead? Or alive? Or is it Mu Qi in the desert country?

Yun Yanzheng stood stunned in the dark shadow of the black flowers and trees, dressed in white and flying in the wind, but a cold cold sweat slowly escaped from his own imaginary thoughts on his back. This thought devastated her, and a sudden pain in her heart tossed back and forth, could it be that all her happiness these days had been stolen with the help of someone who was already gone? These happiness and joy don't really belong to her?
