Qiu Shui saw that Xi Ci's cheeks were slightly red from the sun, so he pushed her back indoors.

Xi Ci opened his mouth to Qiushui, but he didn't make a sound, but his eyes kept glancing back and forth at the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the case.

Qiushui frowned inexplicably, and her eyes followed her gaze, turning left and right.

Yueming walked in and saw the two of them like this, and scratched her head in confusion: "What are you doing here?" ”

Qiushui shook his head: "Huh? I don't know, just see her do it, I'll follow it, maybe I'll understand it as I do it. ”

Xi Ci sighed helplessly, and looked at the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the case.

Yueming followed her line of sight to look at the case, thoughtfully picked up the pen on the case, and asked tentatively, "Do you want this?" ”

Xi Ci's eyes suddenly lit up, grinned and nodded, Yueming handed the pen to her, and immediately remembered that she couldn't move her hands and feet, and wanted to withdraw her hand with some regret.

At this time, Xi Ci stared at the pen in Yueming's hand, and opened her mouth hard, showing an "ah" mouth shape, Qiushui looked puzzled, and still couldn't guess what she wanted to do.

Yueming suddenly suddenly, and carefully put the tip of the pen into Xi Ci's mouth: "Is that so?" ”

Xi Ci immediately held the tip of the pen, nodded hurriedly to signal that she had done the right thing, raised her head slightly, and pointed to the paper on the desk with the tip of the pen.

"You want to write?" Yueming comprehended and pushed her to the front of the desk, helped her lay out the paper, and began to study ink for her.

Xi Ci held the pen with a little difficulty, dipped it in ink, and wrote crookedly on the paper: "Kill me!" ”

Qiushui approached curiously, and couldn't see what was written on it for a long time, so he looked at the moonlight.

Yueming frowned, and after looking at it for a long time, she pointed to the first word and asked hesitantly, "Is this the word 'kill'?" ”

Xi Ci nodded hurriedly, with a hint of urgency in his eyes, and wrote again stroke by stroke.

This time, Yueming understood what she wanted to express, and shouted, "You want to commit suicide? ”

"Never!" Qiushui hurriedly waved his hand.

Xi Ci's eyes were stained with a thin layer of mist, and he looked at them with a little begging.

Qiushui and Yueming looked at each other for a moment, and Yueming was the first to speak: "I know, it's painful to live with such a body, but it's better to die than to live, as long as you live, there must be hope!" ”

"I'm dead now to have hope!" From Xi Ci's silent cry in his heart, only by going to the ghost realm and the underworld as a ghost can he get rid of the current hardship.

Qiushui nodded, and also echoed: "That's right, people live to find surprises in this world of suffering, and the pain at this moment may not be long-lasting." ”

As he spoke, Qiushui slowly took out the pen in Xici's mouth and held her hand with a distressed face.

Yueming held her other hand: "You must live well, we will accompany you in this tribulation, looking for the hidden sugar." ”

Xi Ci was comforted by them, and he couldn't cry or laugh.

The death of the human race is to enter a new reincarnation, and she is the method of the golden cicada to get out of her shell, and if she thinks of a little way, she should be able to bring the dead back to life.

Seeing that they didn't understand, Xi Ci could only give up and decided to think of another way.

Within the territory of the state of Yin.

It was only half a month after the envoys of Qu Guo left, and the folk began to spread such a nursery rhyme: Qu Jing Huan, fate will be, you don't know, the boat has sunk, and when you look back, on the Yellow Spring.

And among the princes and countries, it is another song: the king's heart is like his heart, riding a boat to break through thousands of waves, wanting to dominate the mountains and rivers in his absence.

There is a lot of rumor among countries, saying that there is no wind and no waves, and there must be a reason for it, but they don't know where the cause starts.

At the court meeting, the ministers' expressions on the sinking boat were vague and unclear, and they also wanted to speak to the king.

The clash between the monarch and the courtiers is hidden under the piles and piles of every court meeting, but this time is unusual.

The worries in Yan Mo's eyes were superimposed, and he swept towards the sinking boat from time to time, and returned to solemnity without a trace.

After the court meeting, Yan Mo summoned Shen Zhou as usual and talked to him about the matter.

Shen Zhou waited expressionlessly for Yan Mo to ask, but Yan Mo couldn't spit out a word after watching him for a long time.

has been a mentor and friend for many years, Yan Mo doesn't believe it, and he doesn't want to doubt anything, but there must be a conclusion to this matter.

Yan Mo saw that Shen Zhou didn't want to explain, and was inexplicably a little displeased, so he pretended to ask coldly: "Taishi, there's nothing you want to say?" ”

"But by Your Majesty's judgment." Shen Zhou's face did not change and replied.

He actually understands Shen Zhou's temperament, but he really can't force it if he doesn't want to say it.

Yan Mo finally sighed helplessly: "It seems that war is inevitable, but I don't know if the princes and countries are connected with Qu Guo." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the urgency of the delay is to start preparing for war and preparing for famine, in case the war is sudden and unprepared." Shen Zhou quietly lowered his head, waiting for Yan Mo to give an order.

He didn't expect that at this juncture, Shen Zhou still calmly and rationally considered the next step of the Yin Kingdom, and would not bother to worry about unpredictable things at all.

"When the first king was alive, you used to be a military advisor, so this time, are you willing to take on this important responsibility?"

"Thanks to Your Majesty's respect, if there is a war, the minister will be fortunate not to be dishonored!" Shen Zhou solemnly kowtowed, and after receiving the order, he raised his eyes to look at Yan Mo's eyes, without a trace of flinching.
