Chapter 17: Adom
When I woke up again, I only felt chaos in my mind, my mouth and tongue were unconscious, and I couldn't even move my whole body.
The carriage seemed to be moving forward, but she was dazzled and didn't know where she was.
In the haze, she seemed to hear Jiuzun's voice, which seemed to come from a distance, and she couldn't hear it clearly.
"Water ......"
She heard her own voice, and it was more real.
"I want to ......" I want to live!
She only knows these two things, she wants water, and she wants to live.
Before she could finish the second sentence, something dripped into her mouth, and she unconsciously moved her tongue, quickly absorbing the water.
It's not water, it's not the taste of water, it's stickier than water.
Drop by drop, she took it all into her mouth, and finally gradually regained some consciousness, but she felt that it was far from enough, so she couldn't wait to pout, her lips touched something, hot, and the liquid that was dripping out.
Everyone's life is their own treasure, and if they don't cherish it, they won't live long.
Wu Jinghong woke up from a long period of darkness, and although she was weak, she finally survived.
"She's awake?"
"Wake up, go tell Adom!"
There were two young voices in his ears, followed by hurried footsteps, and Wu shook his head with difficulty, and his eyes tracked down the person who spoke.
This is a teenage girl, with black hair wrapped in a black scarf, and her face is also wrapped in a black scarf, and she is wearing a particularly wide robe, which makes her small body a little strange.
"You're upset, aren't you? Adom will be here in a moment, and she will help you. "The little girl's eyes were beautiful, like those of a nightingale, bright and smart.
"I, I'm in ......" Wu Jinghong tried his voice and said intermittently, "Am I in the Rain Country?" ”
"Yes, this is the Rain Country." The little girl responded to her softly, "I'm Xiwen Dayu, who specializes in serving Adom, it was Adom who saved you, Adom has a kind heart, and will definitely help you go to Gu, you can rest assured." ”
Go to Gu?
Wu Jinghong's eyes lit up, and she tried her best to come here, just to remove the Gu poison.
"If Adom saves you, I'll report it to the lord of the country, and if the main lord agrees, Adom will be able to go to Gu for you." Xiwen Ayu gently lay on the side of the bed, handed the small scoop containing water to her mouth, and comforted, "So you can rest assured, you will be well soon." ”
The cool and sweet water entered her mouth, which immediately made her feel much more energetic, and she could speak neatly.
"Xiwen answers?"
"Huh?"
The little girl looked at her with an encouraging smile in her eyes, "Your people in Ohara have different names than us." ”
"My name is Wu Jinghong, thank you for saving me." Wu Jinghong smiled slightly, "It's my first time in the rain country, and I don't know a lot of questions, if there is anything offended, please tell me when you will pay attention." ”
Looking at her outfit, I always feel that most of the people in this rainy country are believing in what religion, she better be careful, if she accidentally violates their beliefs, let alone go to Gu, it is difficult to say whether she can leave.
"Don't worry, we know that the people of Dayuan are very particular, and we don't have so many particulars. Adom said that the people of Ohora are very smart, and it is better for us to be friends. Xiwen Ayu's eyes were full of sincerity, and he said seriously, "The culture of Ohara is broad and profound, we have to learn a lot from you, Adom said, we can't be the enemy of Ohara." ”
Hearing this, Wu Jinghong was a little surprised, "Have you said that Adom has been to Ohara?" ”
"Yes, Adom went there a long time ago, and when he came back, he told us a lot about Ohara."
Did the correspondence between the rain country and Ohara already begin? Wu Jinghong thought about it carefully, but he couldn't remember that he had received people from the Rain Country in the history of Yun Country, could it be that he just had no contact with Yun Country?
"It's just that Adom said that the journey to Ohara is too difficult and dangerous, and it is really inconvenient to travel back and forth." Xiwen Dayu continued, "The people of Dayuan also raise horses, and the horses can run much faster than us, and the people of Dayuan are so smart!" ”
Wu Jinghong chuckled, this little girl from the rain country is so cute, she opens and closes her mouth to Ohara Ohara, her longing and expectations for Oharara are too warm, right?
"Speaking of which, the Longevity Gu was actually suppressed by the things of the Great Plains, and Adom said that you are amazing!"
“…… It turned out to be called Longevity Gu......" Wu Jinghong sighed lightly, she had been tortured for more than three years, but she didn't even know the name of this Gu poison.
"Yes." Xiwen Ayu looked at her face, as if she was a little unbearable, and looked left and right before lowering her body and whispering, "This longevity Gu is also forbidden in the rain country, and I don't know which leopard head secretly brought it to Dayuan to harm people, Adom said that this kind of thing will not be tolerated by the lord of the country." ”
"Leopard head?"
Xiwen Ayu rolled his eyes, and suddenly understood, "It's a very bold person, we are called Leopard Head." ”
"Since it's a forbidden technique, why are there still people raising this Gu worm?"
The uniqueness of Gu poison lies in the breeding of Gu worms, each adult Gu worm needs several years to raise, and some even need the owner's blood to feed. If it is forbidden, how can you successfully raise Gu worms and grow them?
Xiwen Ayu was stunned, as if he was surprised that the people of Dayuan would know so much about Gu poison, and after thinking for a while, he was about to say something, when he suddenly looked stunned, "Adom is back!" ”
Wu Jinghong calmed down, slowly propped himself up and sat up, cheering up to see this life-saving benefactor.
"Xiwen, you didn't say anything superfluous, did you?"
"Adom, I, I didn't say anything?"
Xiwen Ayu went out to greet her, Wu Jinghong vaguely heard their Q&A at the door, Xiwen Ayu obviously looked a little weak-hearted, she actually didn't know what Adom meant by "superfluous words".
A slender figure stepped in first, dressed in a dark red robe, and a black hair was firmly wrapped in a long scarf of the same color on his head, but his face was not covered, and only the bright red lips on his fair face were particularly eye-catching.
"What nationality are you?"
Unlike the night described in Xiwen Ayu's mouth, Wu Jinghong thinks so, the "Adom" in Xiwen Ayu's mouth respects and yearns for Ohara, but the Adom in front of her is a very cold color.
"Yunguo, dance amazingly." Wu Jinghong bowed slightly, "Thank you for saving your life." ”
Adom glanced at her and walked closer, "The grace of saving your life is not so thankful, not to mention that you still have Gu poison in your body, even if you survive now, it won't be long before the Gu worm wakes up, and you will die." ”
“…… I'm here to find an antidote. ”
"Antidote?" Adom squinted at her and sneered twice, "Hehe, there is no antidote to Gu poison. ”
Wu Jinghong frowned, and looked carefully into Adom's eyes, "Could it be that the lord of your country doesn't want to go to Gu for me?" ”
Hearing this, Adom also frowned, and glanced at Xiwen Ayu, who shrunk his neck and hid behind another little girl.
"Going to Gu is not a matter of one sentence, your longevity Gu is not a good stubble, you have to go to Gu, go and ask the lord of the country yourself!" Adom glanced at Xiwen Dayu with a knife in his eyes, and the little girl shook her body in fright, but this was said to Wu Jinghong.
Wu Jinghong nodded clearly, it seems that this longevity Gu is a forbidden technique, and even going to Gu requires the approval of the lord of the country. So, how did the person who murdered him get this Gu worm, and how did he give himself a Gu?
"Well, thank you." Wu Jinghong's expression was calm, he got up slowly, stood up, bowed to a few people calmly, and then slowly paced out the door.
After walking a few steps, she looked down at the ground under her feet, which was actually made of bamboo and wood, and then looked at the surrounding walls, which were all made of bamboo and wood arranged closely.
This rain country is really a bit interesting, and Wu Jinghong simply let his pace go a little slower, winding down the narrow staircase made of bamboo and wood, and walking up the wide wooden passage. On both sides of the passage were vines climbing up, and I don't know what kind of plants they were, and there were many sharp thorns growing on the vines, which looked very painful.
After the nine-curved corridor, I passed by several bamboo buildings along the way, and there were voices in the bamboo buildings, and there were eyes poking out of the windows in some buildings, but after looking at her, they immediately locked it back, as if she was a man-eating monster.
There is a small bridge not far ahead, which is also made of wooden planks, but there is no water under the bridge, but it is green grassy land.
Why do they walk on bamboo? Why not just walk on the ground?
Wu Jinghong walked all the way, full of doubts, and did not pay attention to the eyes that peeked at her, but walked along the road made of wooden planks.
As she walked, she walked around Adom's bamboo house intermittently, and when she suddenly came back to her senses and looked at the environment, she found that she was about to go back to Adom.
"Their lord must be in the palace, right?" Wu Jinghong looked left and right, and all he saw along the way were bamboo buildings, and none of them looked like a palace.
When she was standing in place and worrying about her nerves, she saw Xiwen Dayu waving at her from afar, "Girl, Adom asked me to take you to the lord of the country!" ”
Wu Jinghong nodded, the cold-looking Adom may not be what she seems. This lively Xiwen Dayu is close to her, so naturally she knows her mind better.
Xiwen Ayu trotted over from a distance, tightened his headscarf with both hands, and said with a wink, "Girl, Adom said that it meant that the lord of the country knew your identity, and he needed to see you to decide whether to save you or not." ”
"Hmm." Wu Jinghong didn't say much, since only the lord of the country has the right to decide, let her see her and talk about it! Perhaps, Jiuzun has already found the lord of the country.
"Girl." Xiwen Ayu looked at Wu Jinghong's face, and said cautiously, "The lord of the country has not liked Ohara since he was a child, so he ......"
"Why?" Obviously there is an Adom who likes Ohara, obviously allowed Adom to go to Ohara, and obviously has always maintained contact with Ohara, how can he not like Ohara?
"I don't know about this, but every time the lord mentions Ohara, his face is not very good, and the man who brought the girl to Ohora two days ago doesn't know what to say to the lord, which makes the lord angry, so he is locked in the dungeon."
