Chapter 269: Only She Can Save You, Why Don't You Ask Her?
Li Ruiyun had just left the Laifu Inn with his front foot, and Yang Zhen arrived on the back foot.
It turned out that before Ling Yun and Hua Ruyu went back to the guest room to rest, he had instructed the chief of the guard to send a second flying pigeon message, telling Yang Zhen where they were staying now, and asking him to bring people here to meet him immediately. That's why Yang Zhen came so quickly.
When Yang Zhen led people to the Rifle Inn, the inn had become a sea of fire.
Looking at the billowing smoke and raging fire in front of him, Yang Zhen was so anxious that he rubbed his hands and stomped his feet, and said in a loud voice: "How could a good inn suddenly catch fire, Brother Ling must have encountered an accident!" Come on, come with me to save people! ”
The guards on both sides hurriedly stopped: "Captain Yang, don't be impulsive." The fire is so fierce that we can't get in! Why don't we put out the fire while setting up a protective net underneath. ”
Yang Zhen burst into tears and said, "Brother Ling, what's wrong with you?" ”
said that Ling Yun was trapped in the guest room and had no way to enter or exit. The room was filled with an atmosphere of panic and death, and he was helpless and almost hopeless in the face of the smoke and fire.
Suddenly, I heard a loud noise in my ears, which was deafening.
When I looked again, the doors and windows that had been closed had been restored to their original state, and the eyes were clear. Looking at the suddenly enlightened world in front of him, Ling Yun was like falling into the fog, and he stayed there for a while.
At this critical juncture, who saved him in such a timely manner?
He was in a daze, only to hear a woman's crisp and anxious voice say, "What are you still doing in a daze, go quickly!" ”
The sound is so familiar. Ling Yun looked up, only to see that there seemed to be a charming figure in the hazy night, fleeting, ethereal like a lonely shadow.
Ling Yun's heart throbbed, "Could it be her?" ……”
At that moment, he only felt that love and hate were intertwined, countless thoughts flashed in his mind, and his mind was messy......
As he hesitated, a faint voice interrupted his thoughts, "Help me, save me......"
When I looked back at my face, it was a flower like jade that had fallen to the ground.
The scorching fire was about to swallow her into dust in an instant, her dead eyes swelled with deep despair, and her face instinctively showed a look of cowardice and pleading for help.
At this time, the smoke in the room became denser and the fire became more and more intense; Ling Yun's mind was excited, and he immediately transitioned from meditation and reverie to reality.
He leaned over to the ground, hugged his head and feet, and "rolled on the spot eighteen times", his light figure rotated like a ball of hydrangea, and in an instant, he arrived at Hua Ruyu's side, and grabbed Hua Ruyu and said: "Flower girl, go quickly!" ……”
Hua Ruyu couldn't have imagined that Ling Yun would still think of coming to save her in such a desperate situation and taking care of herself, and she was speechless for a while under sentimentality.
The flames in the room were dazzling, and the smoke choked so thick that they could barely open their eyes, and they coughed violently.
Ling Yun knew very well that if he wanted to escape from the sea of fire, it was impossible to walk through the door; He dragged Hua Ruyu's hand and prostrate on the ground, and finally groped for the window step by step.
He endured the pain and stretched out his arms, "holding the moon in his arms", and picked up the soft and collapsed delicate body of the dying woman.
Then he stood up from the ground with his shaky figure, flew up, kicked open the window with a sharp "thunderbolt", and jumped from the window with Hua Ruyu in his arms.
Under the window, it is the protective net set up by Yang Zhen and others......
In the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department, Lu Wenzheng locked his eyebrows and sat in front of the sickbed of Hua Ruyu; Standing next to him were Yang Zhen and Mr. Liu, the clerk of the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department.
Mr. Liu held a pen in his hand and recorded all Hua Ruyu's confessions in detail.
Hua Ruyu's confession this time is basically the same as the "confession" she said to Ling Yun at the Laifu Inn a few days ago, but the current confession is more detailed and standardized.
Hua Ruyu described her withered at this time, her expression was miserable, her messy hair teased her sticky jade neck, and her eyes that were bright and agile in the past were hollow, and there was no luster at all.
She was once full of charms and fragrance, and now she is dying and dying.
She was poisoned by the "Thousand Steps Broken Intestines", which was already fatal; was kicked by Li Ruiyun again, even the Tianluo Immortal couldn't save her.
She stared blankly at the roof, thinking about what had happened these days, and she couldn't tell what it was like.
Is she hating the Tianliang annihilation of the Heavenly Owl Organization, unloading the mill and killing the donkey? Is it to thank Ling Yun for ignoring his past suspicions and repaying grievances with virtue? Are you regretting your mistake and acting for the tiger? Or do you regret that you don't have a chance to atone for your sins now......
Finally, she trembled and drew a charge on the confession.
Then, she raised her miserable white face, and her dark eyes were a little wet, "Lord Lu, the prisoner is dying now, but there is still something to worry about before she dies, but I don't know whether to ask or not......"
"You say."
Hua Ruyu hesitated for a moment, and said, "Commander Ling...... No, the eldest prince he ...... How is he doing now? ”
Lu Wenzheng said: "He is highly poisonous, and there is no antidote, but I am afraid that he will ...... Alas! ……” He couldn't say it anymore, his eyes drooped, and he just sighed heavily.
Hua Ruyu said: "What he is in is the Hundred Flowers Gu Poison, and the antidote is only available to the leaders of the Heavenly Owl." ”
Yang Zhen on the side listened, and a look of surprise suddenly jumped in his eyes, "Who are they?" ……”
Hua Ruyu said: "Li Ruiyun, Bai Yu them." ”
When Yang Zhen heard this, he immediately drooped his head like a deflated ball, hung his head and said, "Asking them for an antidote, isn't it a tiger's mouth to extract teeth?" Doesn't that mean you didn't say it? ”
Hua Ruyu gently bit her bloodless lip, and said with a sigh of relief: "The prisoner suddenly remembered someone, maybe ...... You can save the eldest prince......"
Lu Wenzheng's eyes flashed, and he said urgently: "Oh, who is it?" ……”
Hua Ruyu intermittently squeezed out three words from between her teeth, "Practice...... South...... Spring ......"
Lian Nanchun? Isn't she already dead? How could Hua Ruyu mention her? ……
Lu Wenzheng and Yang Zhenzheng were about to ask further questions, but they saw Hua Ruyu's eyes stagnant, her pupils dilated, and suddenly there was no sound.
Lu Wenzheng's heart couldn't help sinking, and he trembled his hand to probe her snort, she had stopped breathing......
Lu Wenzheng and Yang Zhen came to Ling Yun with many doubts.
The "Hundred Flowers Gu Poison" in Ling Yun's body, and now the toxicity is attacking, and it has also reached the point of life and death. He lay silently on the brocade couch, his expression gloomy and disheartened.
Seeing Lu Wenzheng, he struggled to sit up, but was held down by Lu Wenzheng.
Ling Yun asked, "How is Hua Ruyu?" Did you confess? ”
Lu Wenzheng nodded with a gloomy face and instructed Yang Zhen to hand him Hua Ruyu's confession.
Ling Yun looked at it and smiled lightly: "That's the case." The case has finally progressed, and Cheng Qi ...... Finally saved. ”
Lu Wenzheng raised his head with difficulty, looked at him a little speechlessly, and said, "Now you can still laugh?" He Chengqi is saved, what about you? ”
Ling Yun was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "One life for another, maybe this is the will of heaven." ”
Lu Wenzheng's face sank. He frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and waved his hand back and right.
At this time, only he and Ling Yun were left in the room.
Lu Wenzheng stared at Ling Yun's eyes without blinking, and said in a deep voice: "But I heard Hua Ruyu say that there is someone who can save you." ”
"Who? ......" Ling Yun's heart trembled unconsciously, and he asked subconsciously.
Lu Wenzheng said slowly: "Practice-south-spring!" ”
Ling Yun's face sank instantly, he lowered his head in a dejected manner, and only didn't speak.
Lu Wenzheng looked at Ling Yun with blazing eyes and said, "Zhichao, tell me the truth, is she not dead?" ……”
Ling Yun turned his face away, still not speaking.
He was just thinking: How could Hua Ruyu and Master Lu know about Lian Nanchun's affairs? But when I think about it, it makes sense.
Because from Fang Cai Hua Ruyu's confession, Ling Yun knew that she was the twenty-first disciple of the Heavenly Owl, and the Heavenly Owl Organization had a large number of masters, and there were many ears and eyes, so it should not be surprising to find out this information.
Lu Wenzheng saw that Ling Yun was just silent, so he said, "So, Lian Nanchun is still alive?" ”
Ling Yun didn't answer, but said, "Hua Ruyu, I want to see her." ”
Lu Wenzheng lowered his eyes gloomily and said, "She's dead......"
Ling Yun's heart trembled, his face turned pale, and he was speechless for a long time.
Lu Wenzheng said again: "If I guessed correctly, the friend you found last time who could identify the poison of hibiscus flowers was her, right?" ”
Ling Yun's originally reserved and cold posture was a little unable to maintain, and his jaw line became tighter and tighter, so he had to nod weakly.
Lu Wenzheng said: "Since you know that only she can solve the Hundred Flowers Gu poison now, why don't you contact her and ask her to save you?" ”
When he said this, his tone was very restrained, but the faint dissatisfaction and reproach at the end of his words were about to come out.
Ling Yun had mixed feelings in his heart. He lowered his eyelids gloomily, his long eyelashes covered the dark feelings under his eyes, and said silently: "What happened between me and her, adults won't understand......"
Lu Wenzheng sighed: "Zhichao, why are you so stubborn? Don't forget, your current identity is the eldest prince of the Hou Yefu, a golden noble body, and you have a lot of trust, so you should take good care of yourself.
"Especially this time, in order to find out the case of the second prince He, the princess and the marquis entrusted you to me, and you were injured in the line of duty in the Shangshu Mansion of my Criminal Department, if you have any three strengths and two weaknesses because of this, isn't it all my Lu Wenzheng's sin? How did Lu explain to the princess and the princess?
"So, please ask the eldest prince to give Lu someone a face, and tell the woman no matter what, which can be regarded as fulfilling Lu's heart-eldest prince, Lu Wenzheng begs you! ……”
As he spoke, he shook his weak body and bowed down.
Panicked, Ling Yun grabbed his sinking body, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, I can't do it!" - You are an elder and Lingyun's former boss, you do this, isn't this a discount for my life? ……”
When the two were at a stalemate, Lu Wenzheng's servant Rong'er suddenly walked in hurriedly and said in a panic: "My lord, outside...... The evergreen princess is here! ……”
