Chapter 45: First Entry into the Forest Mansion
When Twilight arrived, the Treasure Pavilion was left in ruins, and the Immortal Sword was nowhere to be found.
"What the hell is going on? Zhu Xian Sword?" Twilight Cloud's face was gloomy, and the temperature around him instantly dropped to freezing, and even Gu Pan on his side didn't feel a shudder.
"Back to the Venerable, I don't know what happened, since you entered the nine-story pagoda, soon this treasure pavilion collapsed, and the Zhuxian Sword was gone. The doorman guarding the Zhuxian Sword said resignedly.
"You said I was here today. Twilight said, suppressing the anger in her heart.
Leng Jue on the side asked reproachfully: "Today is the wedding of the Venerable and Gu Pan God, how can the Venerable come to the Treasure Pavilion?"
"Your Excellency, I don't dare to lie, today you went in with Senior Brother Leng Jue, saying that there are demon people, don't worry about the Immortal Sword, you want to strengthen the seal, and at that time, there was a token on your waist, so I didn't suspect it. ”
Twilight Yun frowned, token, could it be Qingqing, impossible, why did Qingqing steal the Zhuxian Sword, could it be...... Twilight didn't dare to think about it......
Back in the Xuanhu Palace, Gu Qingruo had long since disappeared.
Only one letter remained on the table.
Gu Pan knew how important the Zhuxian Sword was to Twilight Cloud, and now everything pointed to Gu Qingruo, who originally hated someone in his heart for ruining this wedding, but now it seems that the anger in his heart has subsided a lot.
"Brother Yun, that woman approached you for a purpose, and the women in the mortal world are all hypocritical. “
Twilight didn't pay attention to Gu Pan's words, but just looked at the contents of the letter over and over again, still a little afraid to think about it......
Mo Chen, who was on the side, bypassed everyone and whispered in Twilight's ear: "Could it be that what we said that day was heard by your little apprentice, and she thought that you would not help her take revenge, so she stole the Zhuxian Sword and wanted to go to the Netherworld to take revenge." “
Twilight didn't pay attention to anyone, but said lightly, "If anyone dares to talk about today's events in private or spread them to the world, no matter who it is, I will keep him shut up forever." ”
Twilight looked at Gu Pan and disappeared in front of everyone, nowhere to be found.
Gu Qingruo, who left Kunlun Mountain, hid his face and came to the capital.
There are constant rumors in the capital that the gods and ghosts descended in the Suyu Palace, and Lin Feng complied with the mandate of heaven to ascend the throne and become the emperor. Hundreds of people built temples for him, burned incense and worshipped the gods, hoping that the gods would take care of them.
Lin Xiao's youngest son Lin Zicong was accidentally infected with a strange disease, his body was festering, and the ulcers emitted a disgusting stench, Lin Xiao doted on his young son very much, and found a famous doctor in the world for him, but he was helpless, and his wife knelt in front of the gods and Buddhas all day long, praying night and night, and the young son's condition was still deteriorating.
One day, there was a veiled young woman who said that she could cure her young son's strange illness, the woman showed an extraordinary temperament between her gestures, and there was a seven or eight-year-old child beside the woman.
The woman followed Lin Xiao to the young son's room, just smelled the stench at the door, entered the room, the woman carefully looked at the man lying on the bed, and looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old, he should be a handsome man, but his skin was ulcering and his appearance was ugly, and his body began to fail.
The woman turned her head to look at the child beside her, then turned back to Lin Xiao and said, "My lord, I hope you can avoid it, Ling Gongzi's illness is a little tricky." ”
Although Lin Xiao had doubts in his heart, Lin Xiao didn't dare to ask more about his son's life, so he retreated outside the door.
Inside the house, the woman took off her veil and said to the child beside her, "Little one, go and see what disease this beloved son of the household servant has, and can he be saved?"
Xiao Budian stepped forward to take a closer look, leaned forward and asked, it was really a little smelly, Xiao Budian covered his nose and said with disgust: "Rescue can still be saved, but the process is a bit complicated, some time-consuming, if there is an antidote, he can be cured in less than ten days." ”
"You mean he's poison, not a disease. ”
Xiao Bu nodded, and then said: "This poison is called Quenching Yin Poison, and the toxicity is very domineering, and the poisoned person will eventually festering and die like him." This poison is colorless and odorless, and is generally imperceptible. But there is a fatal weakness, the poison is too domineering, and the poisoner will also suffer from it. There is an antidote to this poison, and the poisoned person will also leave scars on his body. ”
Gu Qingruo said thoughtfully: "In other words, if we find someone with the same symptoms, we can get the antidote." ”
"I'm afraid that person escaped from the Lin Mansion early, or died a long time ago. Xiao Budian said with a sigh.
"It's artificial, it will definitely show its feet, let's live in the Lin Mansion first, and see what kind of secrets this Lin Mansion hides. ”
Then Gu Qingruo put on a veil and went out of the room.
Lin Xiao asked anxiously, "Girl, my son's illness can be saved." ”
"Lord Lin, don't worry, what Ling Gongzi got is not a disease but a poison, if you want to save Ling Gongzi, you must find an antidote. ”
"Poisoning?" Lin Xiao never thought that it was poisoning, but Zicong has always been well-behaved and has never offended others, how could he be poisoned.
The woman in front of her looked young, whether her words could be trusted.
Lin Xiao hesitated.
Gu Qingruo saw Lin Xiao's concerns.
"Lord Lin, I know your concerns, Lin Gongzi is indeed poisoned, if you don't believe it, just when I never came, I will retire from it. After speaking, Gu Qing and Xiao Bu were going to leave.
Lin Xiao was anxious, his son's illness had been worsening these days, and he had been helpless to find all the medical officers in Su Xiang Country, but now he seemed to have some hope, no matter what, he still gave it a go.
"Girl, please stay, I was worried just now, the girl is young, Lin will inevitably have doubts, and I hope the girl will forgive me." Lin Xiao apologized.
"Lord Lin's concerns, I also understand, but as I said, Ling Gongzi is a kind of quenching poison, what I can only do is to help Ling Gongzi slow down the spread of the poison, but I can't eradicate it. If you want to eradicate Ling Gongzi's poison, Lord Lin should know how to do it!"
Lin Xiao hurriedly nodded and said, "I will find out the person who poisoned my son as soon as possible, but during this period, I will have to bother the girl to live in my house for a while to relieve my son's toxicity." ”
"It's okay, the adults still find the antidote early, so that Childe's illness can't be delayed for too long, otherwise I can't do anything. ”
Lin Xiao's heart was twisted into a rope, he didn't expect that someone would do such an evil thing under his nose, and he would never spare it when the truth was found out.
At night, Gu Qingruo gave Lin Zicong a needle to stop the flow of toxins to the heart, returned to the room, and waited for him in the room leisurely.
"What did you find today?" asked Gu Qingruo after closing the door.
"Sister, I really can't understand why we came to Lin Mansion. I also have to help them find the real culprit. Xiao Bu pouted, with a reluctant look.
"Aren't you usually smart? Why can't I see why your sister and I are doing this? ”
Xiao Budian opened his big eyes and looked at Gu Qingruo, looking puzzled.
"Little bit, if we want to kill Lin Feng, we must think long-term, Lin Feng is now the emperor, and there is a ghost behind him to support him, we must have a plan, and getting Lin Xiao's help is the most important, the world does not know the relationship between Lin Xiao and Lin Feng, but I know that he and Lin Feng are brothers of the same mother. ”
This is the secret of the Lin family, when Lin Feng's mother gave birth to two sons, but the Suqian Dynasty did not allow such a thing to happen, and the soothsayer of the Suyan Kingdom once predicted: "The second son descended from the sky, and the country will be overthrown." ”
Such a prophecy made the people of the Suqian royal family panic, and whoever gave birth to two sons would destroy the nine clans.
But the Lin family escaped, no one knows what happened at the beginning, only that the Lin family was spared by killing one son.
