Chapter 51: The sick lady sat up in shock, and the tyrant was myself
She was afraid that if Gao Yan really rescued her, she would be trapped in this world of punishment forever, so in order to end the punishment early, she secretly ate the Ice Heart Pill.
How ridiculous, the poison that was originally prepared because he was afraid of Gao Yan's torture was now taken because he was afraid of his love.
"Useless ......" Su Yuan raised his head with great difficulty, with blood foaming in his mouth, and his voice was a little indistinct: "You stop...... Don't waste your efforts...... I'm going to die, I, I want you to promise me one thing......"
She stretched out her hand, but it hung limply.
Gao Yan felt that the life of the person in his arms seemed to be passing rapidly, and he held her hand tightly on one side, and on the other side, he kept walking and speeding up his pace.
"Stop talking, you're not going to die." Gao Yan's throat was astringent, and he wanted to stop her from going on.
Su Yuan swallowed her saliva, the smell of blood in her mouth made her frown, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Su Zixi, Xun Chang, and Luo Changning not far away, and continued: "You...... Don't hurt their lives, and ......"
"Next life...... Be a good person. β
If there is a next life.
Su Yuan thought so in his heart, and spit out a mouthful of blood with a "wow" on his mouth, staining the placket on Gao Yan's chest.
The heart seemed to be firmly grasped by a pair of big hands, pinched, and ravaged, and in a short period of time, she deeply felt the pain of death.
Such a strong and quick life-ending poison is still so painful, so will it be more painful for Gao Yan to be burned alive in the fire?
She didn't know why, before she died, she vaguely thought of the scene of Gao Yan in the previous world who accompanied her into the sea of fire, and before she was confused, she finally heard the prompt sound of the system.
γDrop! 100% of the Punishment Quest has been detected, congratulations on completing the Quest and leaving the Punishment World! γ
The breath of the person in his arms gradually weakened, and the hand held by Gao Yan slowly lost its strength.
"Yuan Yuan...... Don't sleep, we're almost in the dormitory, hold on for a while......" Gao Yan lowered his head and rubbed Su Yuan's forehead, kicked open the door of the dormitory, and carefully put Su Yuan on the bed.
"What are you doing in a daze, quickly treat the queen, if she can't wake up, I want all of you to be buried with you!" Gao Yan's cold eyes swirled around the dozens of imperial doctors, and he threatened in a cold voice.
A imperial physician stepped forward and sniffed for Su Yuan, and then was startled, and knelt down tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the queen mother has no breath, I'm afraidβ"
Before he could finish speaking, the dagger in Gao Yan's hand had already cut his throat, and a few drops of blood splashed on Gao Yan's cheek, his dark eyes moved, and he slowly spit out two words: "Lie-"
The rest of the imperial doctors immediately knelt down in panic and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Gao Yan turned around, reached out and stroked Su Yuan's cold cheek, and stubbornly insisted: "She is not dead." β
"She once promised me that she would always be with me, she has already lied to me once, how can she lie to me a second time?"
The imperial doctors looked at the emperor who was immersed in his own world and unwilling to accept the facts, and looked at each other with panic in their eyes.
"A bunch of trash." Gao Yan had a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, stared at the imperial doctors, and lightly ordered the guards: "Drag it out, cut it all." β
With the begging and crying of the imperial doctors, and the incessant shouts, Gao Yan turned a deaf ear, and only silently stared at Su Yuan, who was lying on the bed and had stopped breathing.
He reached out, grabbed the arrow in her chest, and pulled it out with all his might.
The blood has clotted and is no longer gushing out.
The snow on her shoulders and sleeves had melted and was wet, and Gao Yan was afraid of soiling Su Yuan's clothes, so she just sat on the floor, leaning on the bed, and waited for her to wake up.
He sat for three days and three nights.
Everyone said that the emperor was crazy, he didn't go to court for three days, he only stubbornly guarded a corpse, and he delusionally hoped that she would wake up.
On the fourth day, Gao Yan suddenly issued an order to bury the queen in the imperial mausoleum.
Since ancient times, only the emperor can be buried in the imperial mausoleum, and the concubine can only be buried in the concubine mausoleum, and only in the case of joint burial, the queen or concubine is allowed to be buried in the imperial mausoleum and buried with the emperor.
But the current emperor of the Ming Kingdom has not yet died, and he buried the queen in the imperial mausoleum in advance, which is very unruly.
But no one dared to raise objections.
The long queue stepped on the thick snow, and the paper money was sprinkled on the ten-mile long street with the snowflakes.
Gao Yan was not in the team.
At this moment, Gao Yan was sitting quietly in a corner of the imperial tomb, and no one could see him because he was blocked by the stone beast sculpture.
His always dark and beautiful eyes were full of red bloodshot at the moment, hugging his knees, and watching without blinking as the palace people placed the coffin in the middle of the mausoleum, and then withdrew and sealed the stone door.
This is what he once commanded.
It wasn't until the surroundings were completely silent that Gao Yan slowly walked out from behind the statue, still wearing the crimson wedding dress he wore when he got married, with dried blood stains on his abdomen, and the cuffs and hem of his clothes embroidered with cold plums.
He took a few steps forward, opened the lid of the coffin, and saw a girl with her hands folded in her lower abdomen, wearing a phoenix crown, wearing a wedding dress, and closing her eyes with a calm face.
"Yuan Yuan, are you angry with me?" He gently stroked the corpse's face, his eyes full of shame: "It was my mistake, I promise you now, I won't kill them, Xun Chang, Su Zixi, Luo Changning, I will let them all go...... Will you open your eyes and see how I am? β
And no one responded.
His finger reluctantly withdrew: "It's okay, it's okay if you don't want to forgive me, it's my fault, I don't blame you." β
After he finished speaking, he carefully took out a small wooden sculpture of a young girl from his sleeve and placed it beside the corpse.
"Ming customs, before a man and a woman get married, if they carve the appearance of two newlyweds with wood, and then put the wood carving on the head of the bed, then this marriage can be blessed by the immortals, and the beauty of harmony will never be separated."
He smiled miserably: "I think, maybe I am not worthy of the blessing of the immortals, I am deeply sinful, and I have no complaints, but I have dragged you down." β
"But it doesn't matter, there is a charm in the Ming Kingdom, called the Death Talisman, which uses human blood as a sacrifice to give people a past life." As he spoke, he came to a blank and clean stone wall, then cut his index finger with a dagger, pressed it against the rough wall, and began to draw symbols.
The blood on his index finger soon ran out, and when it was gone, he made another cut in the wound and continued to draw until his knuckles were almost exposed.
I don't know how long it took to paint, but his body was cut by him and all the wounds were cut, and blood kept dripping down, and he almost fell in a pool of blood.
He finally finished the last stroke.
Gao Yan happily hooked the corners of his mouth, as if he had completed his task, and his tense body gradually relaxed.
This relaxation, the exhaustion and physical aches that had been piling up for days seemed to open a valve, and it kept coming over him, almost crushing him.
He felt unbearable pain in hindsight, and he couldn't do it, and he didn't even have the strength to walk between Su Yuan's coffins.
He fell to the ground, endured the pain, and moved forward step by step.
He wanted to be able to lie in a coffin with Su Yuan before he died.
There was a clear blood mark on the ground, and Gao Yan's strength was finally exhausted when his fingers touched the coffin, and he hung down weakly.
He lay outside his beloved's coffin, separated from her by a plank, and another small boy wood carving slipped out of his cuffs, which was really ugly compared to the girl's wood carving.
But with his bloody fingers, he clutched the wood carving tightly, as if he was afraid that it would disappear, and held it in his arms, his long eyelashes trembled, and gradually closed his eyes.
Before consciousness completely disappeared, his fingers trembled against the coffin in front of him, and his voice hoarse, muttering the last incantation -
"I give you my blood...... To die. β
