vs 46 Now that I have succeeded, where are you?
"How did you end up in Lanzen?"
"Then why did you show up and happen to save me?"
"I didn't save you."
And Situ Zhao was about to say that in the ancient city, when she was surrounded by the living dead, it was he who saved herself. But before he could speak, a sharp sword was pointed tightly at Situ Zhao's neck.
"And I'm afraid you're not qualified to negotiate terms with me right now."
Situ Zhao felt a little aggrieved in his heart: I took care of you all night last night, I am really ungrateful, human-faced and animal-hearted.
"Who said I didn't." She was a little angry in her heart.
"Oh~Then you can talk about it~"
"You're sick."
"But my illness is Mr. Bai."
"But if Mr. Bai could cure your illness, you wouldn't be what you are now."
At this time, Mr. Bai was about to ask Situ Zhao, but was stopped by Huai Gongzi
"Go on."
"Although Mr. Bai has healed you just now, and you have returned to the appearance of a normal person, but..." Situ Zhao gently removed the sword around his neck with his hand, and when the attendant on the side was about to refute, he was stopped by Huai Gongzi with a look.
"Your blood" Situ Zhao picked up a blood clot on the ground, put it in the palm of his hand, and pinched it hard.
"It's like a hard stone, and your heartβ" Situ Zhao walked into him and reached out to his heart with his other hand
"It's so cold" At this moment, Situ Zhao's eyes were looking at Huai Gongzi, but soon Situ Zhao looked away and continued, "Your illness has not only been cured, but it has become more serious, if this continues, Huai Gongzi~ You are afraid that sooner or later you will become an ice statue." β
Mr. Bai was shocked: "Ice statue? β
"Miss Lin, then tell me about your conditions~"
Situ Zhao suddenly felt that this Huai Gongzi was really straightforward, and he didn't procrastinate at all, she liked this style of doing things, so she also said extremely happily: "Okay, since Huai Gongzi is so bold, then I will open up and say." I can cure your sickness. β
"I know."
"You know !!" Situ Zhao didn't expect Huai Gongzi to say such a thing, this guy didn't have any doubts?
Huai Gongzi then said straightly: "Condition~"
Situ Zhao heard them call this Huai Gongzi the sect master just now, although she didn't know who this Huai Gongzi was, but she believed that the person in front of her was not a simple and powerful person, and her current strength was too weak, so she boldly said: "If you want me to treat you, you have to promise me three conditions." β
"Then let's hear about it."
"First, promise to help me find someone"
"Who?"
Situ Zhao instantly tore off a piece of white cloth on the hem of his clothes, and pulled out a silver hairpin from his hair ornament - ink hairpin, which was a mapping pen made by Situ Zhao himself, which was connected with brain memory. It didn't take long for Situ Zhao to finish the drawing.
"This is where I got separated from him, and this old man, he~ is the person I am looking for."
"Someone, send a few experts to find this person."
"Yes"
"Go on"
"Second, I want to see the sick people in the ancient city of Lanzen, as well as the living dead in the city."
"The third condition..."
"The third condition is that I want an object from you, and as long as I take it out in the future, you must fulfill one of my requests, rest assured, I will not make an unreasonable request, and the period of this request is five years, and today, after five years, if I do not mention it to you, I will return it to you."
"What do you want?"
"The ring in your hand."
"Take?"
"Childe..." Mr. Bai was about to stop it, but was stopped by Huai Gongzi
"Okay, I promise you."
"That Huai Gongzi, happy cooperation." Situ Zhao stretched out his right hand and smiled at Huai Gongzi, only to see Huai Gongzi take off the ring in his hand and put it in Situ Zhao's palm.
Situ Zhao smiled, just as she was about to withdraw her hand, Na Jie suddenly turned into a slender silver wire and quickly tied her hand, Situ Zhao was startled, and before she could react, her hands and feet were entangled by this silver wire, Situ Zhao subconsciously broke free, but felt tighter.
"You'd better not struggle, lest you actually break your hands and feet."
"What do you mean?"
Huai Gongzi smiled slightly.
"You don't believe me? Your illness..."
"My illness doesn't have to bother Miss Lin."
"You... Why? I have no grudge against you~"
"No grievances? But you almost killed my son-in-law."
Gu Rui and Tong Jing happened to come in through the door. Then he saluted Huai Gongzi and Mr. Bai in turn.
"What? How is it possible, how can I kill your son-in-law? Besides, if I want to kill your son-in-law, I don't have that strength. β
"Do you have that strength, won't you know it if you try it?"
Gu Rui pushed her hand, the sword in her cuff was immediately unsheathed, and flew towards Situ Zhao, she was suddenly shocked, at the same time, Tong Jing slashed at her with a palm, Situ Zhao didn't even have time to react, and was instantly pushed to the wooden door by an extremely strong force, and with a bang, the wooden door was directly split open a hole, and Situ Zhao fell fiercely to the open space ten meters away from the door.
"Frightened... Spray~" The blood in Situ Zhao's heart pressed straight to her throat and spurted out, her face instantly turned white, the blood in her body poured into her heart again and again, and a tingling sensation began to feel in her chest, and she didn't stabilize it for a while, Situ Zhao spit out several mouthfuls of blood in a row.
Just as Gu Rui controlled the sharp weapon to kill Situ Zhao again, an internal force knocked down the sharp weapon in the air. Gu Rui looked at Mr. Bai with a puzzled expression.
"Mr. Bai... Don't you want to obstruct me. After speaking, he wanted to attack Situ Zhao again, and then Huai Gongzi on the side finally opened his mouth
"Gu Rui~ It's okay."
Gu Rui only gave up after hearing Huai Gongzi's words.
...
The sky gradually became dark, a fire was lit in the grass house, and Situ Zhao was tied to a tree not far from the door, looking at the fire in the house, she felt some trance in front of her. Then a smell of barbecue wafted out of it, Situ Zhao's stomach began to rumble, and saliva began to secrete. For a long time, she felt that she had collapsed to the point that she couldn't do it, and then she saw a person dressed in white walking towards her with a chicken leg in her hand, she couldn't believe it, so she tried her best to open her eyes, but she was so weak that her vision was blurred, and she couldn't see clearly, until she felt a hot breath in her mouth and smelled a clear smell of barbecue, she really believed it. She opened her mouth with great effort, took a bite of the chicken leg in her mouth, and before she could finish chewing it, she took several more bites in succession until her mouth was full, and then she refused to give up, because she was afraid that the chicken leg would disappear in an instant. After eating the chicken legs, Situ Zhao endured the pain and smiled slightly
"Thanks... Thank you~"
The person in front of her didn't speak, and stayed on the side for a while before leaving, and after the person left, Situ Zhao felt that the pain in her body disappeared, and she knew that it must have been just now, that person healed her.
...
"Sect Master, the person painted by Miss Lin is dressed strangely, not like Zongheng, Luohan and Minglin from the Three Kingdoms, could this person be from the Xuan Clan?"
"Sir, you can send more people to inquire about this person."
"Yes, but there's something I don't know."
"Sir, please."
"Sect Master, you have rescued this Miss Lin many times, and when Gu Rui wanted her life just now, you also hinted that I would save her, even so, why don't you let her heal you for your illness? She has healed that Su Gongzi, and she may be able to cure you. β
"Mr. Bai, when I was in Wolf Mountain, she almost killed me~"
"What !!"
"Actually, when Gu Rui and Tong Jing made a move, I didn't stop it, I just wanted to test her."
"Judging from her appearance at the moment of crisis just now, she is just an ordinary person."
"That's what I think is strange, she obviously doesn't have exercises, but she can hurt me so far."
"This Second Miss Lin Mansion also seems to be a little different from what we found?"
"Indeed, ahem, ahem..."
"Sect Master, your illness..."
"Mr. Bai hurried over to help Huai Gongzi."
Huai Gongzi stopped coughing and signaled that he was fine.
"My illness, I know it in my heart, but sir, I feel that this cold period seems to be different from the past..."
"What's the difference?"
"I don't know exactly what I do, but when I wake up, sometimes I feel like I'm out of control."
"Uncontrolled?"
"I felt a force pulling me, so I followed it to a place."
"Where?"
"The altar of Wuzhen."
"The altar of Wuzhen?"
"And she's on the altar."
"Miss Lin?"
"That's right."
"Did you go to save her?"
"I don't know."
"Could it be an accident?"
"At first I thought it was all accidental, but soon after, I didn't think it was."
"How?"
"Three days ago, I followed that force to a barren land."
"Miss Lin also appeared there?"
"That's right, she was being chased by a masked man."
"You saved her?"
"Before she could make a move, a puff of smoke filled the air, and after the news of the smoke, she was gone."
"Gone?"
"And the last time I was dragged was this time, I came to the ancient city of Lancen. She was surrounded by the living dead in the city, and I rescued her and went to the thatched hut, when my condition suddenly worsened. In a daze, she said something. β
"About your condition."
"Cold poison, I got cold poison."
"Cold poison, I haven't heard of it. What else did she say? β
"No... None more."
Huai Gongzi did not continue to talk about this topic, but changed his painting style.
"I feel like she has something to do with me. As for my illness, how many days do I have left as it stands?
According to the previous situation, it was only five years, but as it is now, less than three years. But the sect master, since she knows about your illness, she should also have a way to deal with the sect master's illness, why doesn't the sect master believe her once, and the conditions she proposed are not difficult. β
Huai Gongzi thought for a moment and didn't speak.
"The sect master is afraid..."
"My time is short, two years, I need two more years, I can't take any chances."
"Sect Master..."
Mr. Bai made a big gift to Huai Gongzi, and at this moment his eyes were full of tears.
"I, Bai Shao, will definitely do everything I have learned all my life to heal the sect master~"
...
"Childe, outside the door... There are so many living dead people outside the door! β
Huai Gongzi and his party immediately flew out of the door, and Huai Gongzi grabbed Situ Zhao, who was unconscious next to the tree, and ordered everyone to break out of the encirclement and fight a bloody way to the south in order to retreat. But what they didn't expect was that they finally got rid of these living dead, but after a while, they were followed by these living dead, and then, after fighting all the way, Huai Gongzi and his party finally escaped and came to a temporarily safe valley. However, what they didn't expect was that they had only stayed for half a day before the living dead reappeared, just above the valley bottom.
Tong Jing faced Huai Gongzi and Mr. Bai: "Where are there so many living dead?"
Mr. Bai: "Sect Master, it's so strange, these living dead can't be shaken off, we fled all the way, but we have been very careful to arrange our whereabouts, how can they follow us so quickly?"
"Tong Jing, be careful~" Huai Gongzi stabbed a quick sword behind Tong Jing, and with a bang, the man fell. Tong Jing turned to look back, and suddenly looked at the man in surprise.
"Childe... He... How did he become the living dead? β
Situ Zhao woke up slightly, but her ears were still echoing with the voice she heard when she was asleep, "Hurry... Get out of here... Hurry up..."And the moment she opened her eyes, she saw Mr. Bai walking towards the fallen attendant...
"Don't touch him..."
Mr. Bai, who was squatting next to the corpse of the attendant, looked back at her in surprise, but at this time, the attendant who had been stabbed to death suddenly became active in an instant, and grabbed Mr. Bai's hand.
"Ah~" Mr. Bai suddenly let out a miserable scream.
"Mr. Bai~" Tong Jing immediately drew his sword and was about to swing it at the hand of the revitalizing attendant.
"Don't~" Situ Zhao saw that Tong Jing didn't stop, so he hurriedly shouted: "If you cut off his hand now, Mr. Bai will immediately die of blood~"
Tong Jing was startled and wanted to put away the sword, but it was too late and he couldn't control it, at this moment, Huai Gongzi passed a jade flute, "clang~" sound, the sword broke and fell on the surface, and then a jade flute returned to Huai Gongzi's hand.
"But... What about Mr. White? β
Mr. Bai's neck and face began to burst with green tendons, and his eyes were slightly red.
"I'll come~" Situ Zhao casually picked up the two stones on the ground next to him, stood up, tapped lightly with his hands, and walked towards Mr. Bai step by step...
"Ah~" Mr. Bai let out a painful cry again.
"Huai Gongzi, play some songs for peaceful sleep and meditation." Then a burst of comfortable and pleasant music sounded, Situ Zhao stopped beside Mr. Bai, his eyes were engrossed in observing the dark green lines on Mr. Bai's face, "clang" twice, the stone fell to the ground, Situ Zhao quickly pulled out a subtle needle from the cuff, and quickly stabbed an ink shadow on Mr. Bai's neck, the dark green lines on Mr. Bai's face immediately retracted and gathered to Situ Zhao's needle, the corners of Situ Zhao's mouth rose slightly: "Sure enough~" Then Situ Zhao took out a few Xuan Needles in succession and pierced Mr. Bai's arm and the fingers of the living dead, but at the key point of eradicating the ink shadow, the Xuan Needles in the cuffs were used up. Situ Zhao's brows furrowed: "Oops, the Xuan needle is not enough..."
"What then?"
"What can we do?"
"Catch Mr. Bai~" Situ Zhao pushed his hand, Mr. Bai turned to the side, Tong Jing quickly moved over to catch Mr. Bai, but at the moment when Mr. Bai was separated from the living dead, the ink shadow was reflected into Situ Zhao's body at the speed of light.
"Ah~" Situ Zhao shouted out in pain, and at this time, Huai Gongzi was about to get closer, "No... Don't come here... Frightened... Huai Gongzi, use your ring... Tie me up~"
Situ Zhao saw that he hesitated and didn't make a move, so her eyes looked directly into Huai Gongzi's eyes: "Quick... Hurry ~" and then with a few "bangs", Na Ring flew to Situ Zhao, this time Na Ring no longer turned into a small silver wire, but turned into a soft silk segment to tie Situ Zhao...
"Ah~" A cloud of ink shadows began to appear on Situ Zhao's face, and his hands and feet struggled vigorously, trying to break free from the silver...
"Quack quack~" A little yellow duck landed from the sky, its whole body exuded a shining golden light, like a piece of gold, and finally the duck fell on Situ Zhao's shoulder.
"Quack, quack..."
Little Yellow Duck: Master, I'm sorry, I'm late~
Duck???!!! Everyone present was stunned.
"Where did the ducks come from?"
They were all staring at the duck that had fallen from the sky.
"Tell Childe, the living dead on the bottom of the valley have disappeared~"
"What? Gone! Tong Jing looked very excited. The eyes of Huai Gongzi on the side looked at the little yellow duck that landed on Situ Zhao's shoulder...
Situ Zhao: Where is this? Have you entered the realm of dreams again?
Situ Zhao walked in this witty world, there was a dark silence all around, and after walking for a while, Situ Zhao felt a little tired, so she sat down, and at this time, a beam of light came in, and in front of her was a dim room. "It is a modern type of room!! Situ Zhao was very surprised, "Could it be that I went back?" β
Suddenly, two children appeared. A boy dressed in noble clothes sat on the side without saying a word, while another casually dressed girl was sitting across from him, with a small red schoolbag next to her. They sat still, and after a while the boy asked, "You sit like this, and don't you want to say anything?"
Girl: Oh, let's say something. Say it, I'll listen.
The boy gave her a roll of his eyes, was silent for a while, and when he saw that the girl was still heartless, he finally opened his mouth and asked casually: What are you living for?
The girl looked innocent: For money?
The boy looked disgusted: You are so superficial!
The girl didn't care at all: yes, I'm just superficial, because I haven't been able to get rid of this superficiality, aren't you superficial?
"No, I'm not like you~"
"Yes, you don't need to think about it, because you are not short of money now, but everything you have now is based on this superficial foundation! Half an hour has come, are you okay? β
The girl saw that he didn't speak, so she opened her schoolbag, reached in and touched it with her little hand, and took out a display screen, which showed a collection code, "No, scan it." β
The boy's mind flashed with the ellipsis "......"
"If you have anything, just say it, if you don't, I'll really leave."
"I think life is so meaningless~"
"Hmm?!!! It's very meaningful~"
"Look~ People have to work to earn money to live, you need money to ensure your food, clothing, housing and transportation, and your food, clothing, housing and transportation are created by human beings."
"Yes, what's the problem?"
"Let's put it this way, it is equivalent to people chasing money, money is tightly holding food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the line of clothing, food, housing and transportation is tightly held in the hands of human beings. Isn't that the human being creating the suffering themselves, isn't this like an endless cycle, the ideal perpetual motion machine in the physical world? As long as it is not interstellar destruction and Mars hits the earth, as long as human beings are still in the day, this dead cycle will still be there, and the law will not be broken~"
"Then you think you've seen it through?"
"Yes, I don't think life is meaningless!"
"Honestly, you... Are you out of money? β
The boy took out a data treasure, and the data displayed on it was statistically negative: "This is my financial data report, there is a problem with my assets, and now I have no job and no income." There is no money left, and there is no food left. β
"So what you just said... Be... Want not to pay? β
Silent... Silent... Silent...
"Are you hungry?"
"Hmm~"
"Are you hungry and want to eat?"
The boy was silent for a while, then said, "I don't want anything now, I'm dead."
"Oh, it looks like you're not hungry yet, but, hehe~ I'm a little hungry."
She took out two packets of instant noodles from her backpack and went to her own instant noodles, and after five minutes, the two instant noodles were ready, and the girl picked up a bowl and sniffed it gently.
"Wow~ instant noodles are so fragrant~"
-_-||
Took a sip of the soup
"Wow ~ positive!"
Uh(~_~; )
Take another bite of noodles
"Hmm~ That's how it feels!"
Supercilious
I took a big bite and ate it~
"Hmm~mm~oh~"
"White-eyed wolf."
"What did you say?" The girl looked at him and smiled slightly: "I originally wanted to give you a bowl, but now..."
The boy thought to himself: conscience has been found? You have a little conscience~
"Well, great, saved, hahaha~"
The girl continued to eat, taking a bite of the noodles in bowl A and another mouthful of the soup in bowl B...
The boy's stomach was already rumbling, and when he saw her foodie-like appearance, he was so angry that he snatched a bowl of noodles and ate it in a big gulp...
Five minutes later...
"Finished eating?" The girl crossed her arms, looking serious, but her fleshy face looked particularly immature and cute.
"Hmm~" The boy looked a little shocked, this was the first time he had seen her so serious, and at this time she looked extremely cute.
"Full?"
"Hmm~ah, it's close..."The boy touched his head a little embarrassed.
"Do you want to eat it?"
The boy nodded vigorously: "Hmm~"
"Oh, then you don't want to die yet!"
"Nope..."
"Sophistry! Since you want to die, then don't eat, if you're hungry and you still want to eat, then prove that you don't want to die yet! β
"That's because..."
"I tempted you? I'm afraid not. The girl paused and continued: "No matter what the reason is, even if you are hungry, if you are bent on dying, then no matter how much I tempt you with instant noodles, you will not eat it, but at first you said that you didn't want to eat it, but you still ate it in the end, it means that you don't want to die yet!" So you stay alive. β
Surprise!!! Boy: What a crooked reasoning, but I think there is some truth in what I said!
After speaking, the girl touched her backpack with her little short hand, and finally took out a deposit treasure: "No, this is all my current savings, you can use it, it is enough for some of your industry to restart operation."
"You..."
"I know your strength, they believe in you, I believe in you."
The boy's eyes moistened.
"But I'll give you these, you have to promise me a condition, ten years later, you need to pay me back ten times as much as now, do you dare."
Looking at the scene of the boy and girl in front of him, suddenly the sky was dark, and Situ Zhao seemed to have fallen into an abyss...
...
In the white space, a handsome man in a black trench coat looked at a red maple leaf outside the window, took a sip of warm tea, his face showed a faint sadness, his brows were slightly tight, and he sighed: "I have succeeded now, but where are you now?"
