329 Drinking water to quench thirst (1st shift)
The cold wind blew in through the window, and the candle trembled violently, and then calmed down again. A bean-sized raindrop fell on the window lattice, and it snapped, clear and short. Then the second drop, the third drop, and the rain fell.
The imperial capital has a rainy spring and seems to have been exceptionally much this year.
Gu Ci's voice was buried in the palm of his hand, muffled and heavy, and he said, "Pian Yu, you go out first." ”
Katayu lowered his head and didn't move. His gaze fell to the ground, and his expression was indiscernible. Gu Ci had lost his patience and scolded in a deep voice, "If you want her to live, get out!" ”
The girl with her head down crushed the ground on her toes, but did not speak or move.
In the dull atmosphere, Qing Ming sighed. He naturally knew why Gu Ci wanted to drive people away, and promised in a low voice, "Go ahead." Feel relieved...... Your master will be fine. I promise that if something happens, I will pay for my life. ”
The promise is a bit heavy.
Kata Yu glanced at Qing Ming, and turned around and went out.
Inside, it was quiet and dreary, and the atmosphere was as solemn as sticky ink binding people inside, and no one spoke. Shi Huan's suppressed breathing was infinitely amplified, and it fell on Gu Ci's heart, like a hammer after hammer. It made it hard for him to breathe.
After a while, he said, "Qingming...... Try again. ”
"No way!" Qing Ming suddenly retorted, his voice was a little loud, and after speaking, he suddenly realized that this was the territory of the Shi family, and there was a piece of feather with extremely high martial arts outside, and he lowered his voice at the moment, "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”
"Don't talk about yourself...... Let's talk about her. In Qixia Town, it was an unexpected recurrence, and I knew the illness I was dealing with, and her heart disease should have been cured a long time ago...... But your heart's blood is the root cause of her recurrence. Drink poison to quench thirst...... Do you understand? ”
"The medicine quote is a home remedy in ancient books. I told you at that time, this kind of recipe ...... Even I'm not sure what the impact will be, no one knows. A ...... Until you find out why she relapsed this time, I really wouldn't advise you to risk it again. ”
"After I came back from Qixia Town, I searched through the relevant ancient books in the library of the Qinghe Palace, and I never saw this ancient recipe in any other place...... Do you know what that means? This means...... No one has ever used this method in recorded history, or no one has ever used it successfully! ”
"So...... Do you dare to act rashly? ”
Can't. But when it comes to Shi Huan, he has long had no courage to be rash...... Be cautious, walk on thin ice, and walk with difficulty, for fear that if you are not careful, you will never recover, and you will lose everything.
Can......
"Tell me, then...... What else can I do? ”
Outside the window, there was no wind, and the rain was hitting the pool in the courtyard, crackling and not lively. The silent atmosphere in the room could not be dispersed even a little, Qing Ming did not answer Gu Ci's words, and Gu Ci's face was still buried in his palm. The flickering glimmer of the candle hit his hand, which was thin and the palm was large, and he could vaguely see a faint light overflowing between his fingers.
"Qing Ming......" he called, "I don't know what else can save her but this method." She understood, she wasn't a heart disease, she was ...... It's a soul-breaker! If it's really just a heart disease, I can protect her from throbbing or anger, and I can protect her without a chance of getting sick in my life. Don't I know that this is the equivalent of drinking water to quench my thirst? Can...... Even if it's to quench her thirst, as long as she lives, it's good to ......"
"If she wants, I can always give it to her, once a month is not enough, then twice, three times...... This life can be given to her, not to mention that it is just a bowl of hard work. In short, while I was still alive, no one would want to take her away! Lord Yama doesn't even think about it! ”
He looked up, his eyes were as black as splashing ink, and there was no luster at all. The whites of his eyes were covered with crimson bloodshots, like a dense net, wrapped around his eyes. He seemed to tell Qing Ming, and it was like telling himself, repeating over and over again, "No one can think about it!" ”
"She can't do it herself!"
What kind of relationship is this...... Qing Ming couldn't see Gu Ci's expression, but the voice that was cold enough to kill gods and demons had already expressed everything clearly enough - Gu Ci as long as she lived, and, in order to keep her alive, she was willing to pay all the costs, no matter how expensive it was.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, dragging out all the sounds and movements of the night.
Qing Ming sighed heavily, and said in his heart, forget it...... Who let himself identify this person in his previous life, and if so, what if he is crazy for him for another life? Deal...... When everything is irreparable, give up this flesh and blood body and give them another ride.
"When I came, no one in the Shi family seemed to know what was going on here. It should be you and me who immediately went to find out about the situation...... No one in the Shi family has found out about this yet. Now, even if you want to take your heart's blood, you can't be here...... In this case, you go back first......"
After thinking about it, I felt that I really didn't feel at ease with this man who was in a mess as soon as he touched Shi Huan's things, "Forget it...... I'll go back with you. I'll let Pian Yu come in first to apply needles to stabilize the condition, and this matter is not in a hurry at this moment, I will stabilize your body first and then come over. ”
"I'm fine......"
"Hmmm......"
In the pouring rain, any background sounds were weakened so much that they could barely be heard, and even Qing Ming, who had heard much better than ordinary people over the years, didn't pay attention to it. Partially, Gu Ci Huo Ran turned around and looked at the girl on the bed frowning and muttering softly.
This person whispered to the extreme, and when it fell into Gu Ci's ears, it exploded like thunder, and he ran to the bed in three or two steps, his voice couldn't be lower, and his hand holding the edge of the bed was shaking, "Huan, Huanhuan......"
The girl with a pale face, her lips were wet with blood. There was a fine layer of sweat on his forehead, and he wanted to reach out to wipe it, but his hand was halfway up and retracted, he ...... Fear, fear of touching the other person's abnormal body temperature.
Late at night, no wind.
Gu Ci felt that there was a hole in his heart, and he was whistling by the hurricane from where, and he was in pain all over.
The closed eyelids on the bed quivered slightly, like butterfly wings flapping through his heart, and another powerless hurricane...... He forgot to even breathe, and a hand beckoned behind him like a wind, completely forgetting that he was ...... Can not see.
The eyelids quivered again, and then opened very slowly...... She seemed a little confused and blinked, "Senior brother...... How could my brother be here? After speaking, his brows trembled, and his expressions were twisted together, "I ......"
"Am I ...... Sick? ”
Gu Ci finally found his voice, got up and went to drag Qing Ming, "Qing Ming!" ”
