CHAPTER XX

Ling Miao was about to continue, but was stopped by Ze Huo's voice.

"Do you know that you have been poisoned?" Looking at Ling Miao's expression, Ze Huo was sure that Ling Miao knew, no wonder he was so determined when he was about to commit suicide last night, he already knew that he would not live long.

"I don't understand what you just said, but I can help you. Ze Hui has been struggling with the problem just now thought of a solution.

Ling Miao's eyes flashed with hope and looked at Ze Miao, who also looked over and looked at Ling Miao: "But I have the conditions." ”

"No matter what the conditions, I will agree. ”

Ze Huo smiled: "Do you promise anything?"

Ling Miao hesitated a little, but when she thought of her brother, she nodded lightly.

"When you're done with what you want to do, get out of here with me. Ling Miao didn't expect this, she knew Ze Hui just because it had just happened, she didn't think that Ze Hui had anything to do with her, and she couldn't figure out why Ze Hui would put forward such a condition.

Ze Huo also saw Ling Miao's surprise, and said lightly: "Anyway, my condition is this, as long as you agree, I can help you with anything." ”

Ling Miao only hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement, anyway, she wouldn't have long to live, and it might be a relief to leave here.

Ze Huo breathed a sigh of relief: "What do you want me to help you with now?"

Ling Miao looked back at the door and made sure that no one spoke: "I know that Mr. is extraordinary, and our Ling family can't afford to kill the second prince." ”

Ling Miao's eyes flickered as she looked at Ze Hui and continued, "I want Mr. to take over this charge. ”

Ze Huo didn't expect Ling Miao to let him help like this, in Ling Miao's eyes, he was a mortal, if he helped, it would be equivalent to dying for her brother, she wanted him to die?

Ling Miao saw that Ze Huo was a little angry, and hurriedly explained: "I heard Uncle Fang say that you are from Yongding City, because the horse plague mob is everywhere, killing the second prince to vent his anger is enough to convince outsiders, as for the emperor, ......"

Ze Huo noticed that every time he talked about the emperor, Ling Miao's expression was a little sad.

"As long as someone comes out to confess, the emperor will not pursue it any further, don't worry, when you are in prison, I will find someone to save you." Ling Miao affirmed.

Ze Huo didn't speak, Ling Miao thought that Ze Huo was unwilling, and continued: "I know some Jianghu guests, they are all people with strong martial arts, when you work together, those jailers will not be able to stop you." ”

Ling Miao wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ze Hui: "Okay, I promise you." ”

Ze Hui agreed refreshingly, which made Ling Miao stunned, in fact, she just asked Ze Huo to try, after all, she had not known him for half a day, Ling Miao couldn't help but have some doubts about his identity, standing in Ze Huo's position, he had no reason to help.

"Who the hell are you?" Ling Miao asked.

Ze Huo looked at Ling Miao's eyes, and for a moment, he felt that Ling Miao in front of him was Gu Miao.

Ze Huo didn't answer, since he woke up, people kept asking him who he was, and he also wanted people to know who he was, but this seemingly all-encompassing Six Realms, can it really tolerate him? Looking at Gu Han's fate, it seems that it can't be tolerated.

For the first time, Zehuo's face showed sadness, and at that moment, he felt that he was in this world, but he was not in this world.

"Sir, sir?" Ling Miao saw that Ze Huo's expression was wrong, and suddenly felt that she didn't need to ask this question, no matter who he was, it didn't matter who he was now, the important thing was that he promised to save her brother.

Ze Hui replied: "You go back first, and call someone to take me into the palace before dark." ”

Not long after Ling Miao went back, a general came, the general Ze Huo knew, it was the deputy commander who killed the second prince with his own hands, it seemed to be named Li Feng, Li Feng stood outside the door and hugged Ze Huo, his eyes were slightly red.

"Mr. righteousness, I, Li Feng, will remember it for the rest of my life. In Li Feng's position, it is really unreasonable for Ze Huo to bear this matter, but he is the Ling family, what he did was equivalent to what the general did, he couldn't admit his guilt, but he didn't regret it, if he didn't make a move in that situation, his general would be gone.

The sky was close to dusk, Ling Xiao had not come back yet, Ze Huo followed Li Feng into the palace, Ling Miao stood under the corridor and looked at the door, it was not too cold in autumn just now, but Ling Miao had already put on a thin plush jacket, there was no blood on her face, and she looked pale under the dusk.

When the sun disappeared completely, Ling Xiao appeared at the door, Ling Miao had been standing under the porch, and only when she saw Ling Xiao appearing did a slight smile appear on her face, she shouted softly: "Brother." ”

Ling Xiao walked back alone, with injuries on his body, blood had penetrated his coat, and the whole person looked very unfocused, and when he heard Ling Miao call him, he only raised his head and smiled back reluctantly.

Ze Huo sat on the carriage, and heard Li Feng outside report to people that he had come to confess, and then an officer and soldier lifted the curtain and looked at it, saying that the carriage could not go in, so Ze Huo got out of the car and followed Li Feng to the palace, followed by two royal forest soldiers with knives and was very afraid.

The long corridor into the palace was very long, and he hadn't arrived for a long time, so Ze Huo talked to Li Feng to pass the time: "Is your general's official very big?"

Li Feng glanced at the Imperial Forest Army behind him, the Royal Forest Army was far away and couldn't hear them, Li Feng replied: "It's big and big, it's not big." ”

"Huh, what do you say?"

Li Feng looked at the sky and said with emotion: "No matter how big it is, it is not as big as the emperor of the Tiansheng Dynasty, the emperor believes that you will reuse you, and no one will be able to bully you, otherwise, the wall will fall down and everyone will push it." ”

Ze Huo didn't understand very much, but he seemed to be able to understand it, and felt that this topic was too dry, so he changed the topic and said: "Last night, I heard that the second prince said that Miss Ling was promised to Sheng Minglang, who is this Sheng Minglang?"

"He is the third prince of our Tiansheng Dynasty, a man who stands up to the sky, if he hadn't been poisoned and unconscious, he would have become the prince to marry our young lady by now. Li Feng's eyes were shining when he said the third prince, and Ze Huo could feel the influence of this person on him, but no matter how he stood up to the sky, he was not qualified to rob him of people.

"There's a prison in front of you, I can only send you here, and it won't be long before someone is ordered to interrogate you, don't worry, it'll be fine." Li Feng said to Ze Huo.

They stopped in front of a red tiled house, and Ze Huo thought he was going to see the emperor, but he didn't expect to go directly to prison.

Looking at the tile house in front of him, Zehuo felt a little inexplicably irritable, maybe because he had never been in a prison cell after living for so long, or because of Ling Miao.

After Li Feng left, the two Royal Forest soldiers behind him stepped forward and escorted Ze Huo into the cell, and Ze Huo was put into a cell where felons were written, in addition to a bed, there were also some torture instruments, such as grippers and the like.

Ze Huo has been in it for two days, during which he was used for various punishments, of course, he used mana to dissolve, Ze Huo has always insisted that he killed his family because of the horse plague in Yongding City, and the emperor didn't care so he came to take revenge.

On the third day, the holy decree was transmitted to the prison, and it was confirmed that the second prince was indeed killed by Zehuo, and he was beheaded in the afternoon.

Everything went according to plan, and several people dressed as charlatans broke into the heavily guarded palace prison an hour after the decree was announced, and rescued Ze Huo, and the emperor was furious and beheaded more than a dozen royal guards and jailers.

General Ling's Mansion, Ling Miao looked at Ze Huo who was lying on the bed and was scarred, he was very guilty, Ze Huo enjoyed such guilt very much, he was a little depressed in his heart, what kind of identity he was, he didn't expect that one day he would be willing to be imprisoned.

"They are so ruthless, I obviously asked He Gongzi to do it, I'm sorry. Ling Miao said to Ze Huo, who had his eyes closed on the bed, that Ze Huo had been pretending to be dizzy since he came out of the prison, because one of the Jianghu guests praised Ze Huo when he rescued him that he was not like an ordinary person, and he seemed to have nothing to do with such a serious injury.

So Ze Huo fainted directly at the moment, and looked at the Jianghu guest stunned.

Ze Huo opened his eyes slowly and appropriately, looking at Ling Miao, who was squatting in front of him and still saying sorry, he was in a much better mood in an instant.

"You keep talking to me, I can't rest. Ling Miao stopped apologizing when she heard Ze Huo speak, raised her head and looked at Ze Huo, and smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth.

"The gentleman finally woke up. "It's already dark, and it seems like it's been a long time since he's been out of prison, and time flies so quickly in this human world.

"You pack up, and we'll leave tomorrow. ”

Ling Miao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that she had promised Ze Huo to leave here with him, she didn't know why Ze Huo wanted to take her away, but since she had promised, she would keep her promise.

"Your injury ......" Ling Miao worried, she didn't dare to go out to find a doctor due to the current form, for fear that the eyeliner in front of the mansion would be suspicious, fortunately, Fang Bo still knew some traumatic bandaging techniques, but the injury looked very serious, and she couldn't cultivate without a month.

Ze Huo sat up from the bed: "This injury is no problem at all, you have promised." ”

Unable to resist Ze Huo, Ling Miao nodded lightly and said, "Let me make some preparations first, can I leave before dusk tomorrow?"

Ze Huo smiled at the corner of his mouth, stared at Ling Miao's eyes, and then nodded.

Ling Miao also smiled faintly: "I'll go to my brother first, Uncle Fang will come to check your injuries in a while, you lie down and don't move." ”

Ze Huo nodded again, and kept watching Ling Miao walk out of the room, in addition to looking for the shadow of Gu Miao's body in his eyes, there was actually a little more pity in his eyes.

As soon as Ling Miao went out, Uncle Fang walked in with a bowl of black decoction, and smiled in front of Ze Huo: "I'm a halfway monk, and I didn't understand it when I just touched my husband's pulse, so I had to boil some herbs for treating external injuries casually." ”

Ze Huo saw the black smoke of the decoction, his brows furrowed, what he hated most was this kind of decoction that was so bitter that he lost his hair, when he was a child, in order to enhance his physique, Ze Yi went to the West Snow Mountain to get the bitter gall refining medicine of the snow wolf and gave him a month, and since then he has been nauseous when he sees the wolf.

"Sir, don't worry, I often boil these herbs to treat Xiaodouzi's leg injury, and it will be fine. Uncle Fang patiently persuaded.

Ze Huo gritted his teeth, picked up the bowl and poured it into his mouth, directly sealing the taste and stuffing it into his mouth, although the taste was sealed for a moment, but the bitter and strange taste remained in the mouth for a long time, which made people disturb.

When Uncle Fang saw Ze Huo drinking, he opened his mouth with a smile, and was about to touch Ze Huo's strange veins again, but Ze Huo stopped: "Fang... Uncle Fang doesn't need it, I still know a lot about medical skills, and I will heal myself. ”

"Well, if you have anything, feel free to contact the old man. Fang Bo scratched the back of his head and said, he was a person who didn't know how to express himself, but he could see that he was very grateful to Ze Huo.

Ze Huo looked at the back of Uncle Fang leaving, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, if Uncle Fang knew that he didn't actually help much......

"That's right. Ze Huo stopped Uncle Fang, who was about to go out.

Uncle Fang turned around: "Is there anything else to do sir?"

Ze Hui asked as if by accident: "He Gongzi?"

Uncle Fang was puzzled, Ze Huo had only been here for a few days, how did he know Gongzi He, and thought that he might have heard those jailers talk about it in prison, so he stood at the door and replied: "He Yubo and He Xiaogongzi are the sons of Master He who is in charge of the prison, and the young lady's classmate in the private school. ”

Ze Huo nodded slightly to indicate that he understood, Fang Bo walked out of the room, Ze Huo looked at the ceiling and thought that the private school should be a place to study in the human world.

It was hard work to lie in bed all the time pretending to be sick, and Ze Huo couldn't hold on until noon the next day, so he changed into Ling Xiao's clean clothes and went out to find Ling Miao.

The entire general's mansion was beaming, he heard the people passing by say that the emperor in the palace had rewarded a lot of treasures, and everyone had a smile on their faces, and Ze Huo was also infected to the point that the corners of his mouth were curved, but when he thought of that thing, he withdrew his smile, and he seemed to understand a little.

Ling Miao was talking to a few men in the courtyard, it was a Jianghu guest who rescued him from the cell, and several people hugged Ling Miao with their burdens on their backs, and Ze Hui just heard Ling Miao talking around the corner.

"Whether he deliberately avoided me or really disappeared, please tell me a few times, I Ling Miao is not an entangled person, he didn't come that day, he already made his intentions, from now on we are strangers, goodbye should not know. ”

Several Jianghu guests each glanced at each other, and the leader said, "Miss Ling, don't worry, I will pass on the news of the alliance leader to you as soon as possible." ”

"No need, you help me this time as if he owes me, let's go, don't see each other again. After saying that, Ling Miao turned around and walked towards the courtyard, and several Jianghu guests looked at each other again, and then turned around and left General Ling's mansion.

Ze Huo stood in a remote position, no one saw him, he looked at Ling Miao's departing figure thoughtfully.

Sheng Minglang, He Gongzi, what kind of alliance leader is there now, Ze Hui's eyes were evil, and he said to himself: "It's really getting more and more interesting." He turned around and went back to his room, sitting on a stool and drinking his tea.

When the sun was about to set, there was a knock on the door, it was Ling Miao, they had agreed to leave at dusk, and the knock on the door rang for a long time, until Ling Miao shouted, "Is Mr. there?"

Ze Huo put down the already empty teacup in his hand, got up and opened the door.

Ling Miao looked at Ze Huo's somewhat strange eyes, and felt inexplicable, obviously in the room, why did she keep knocking on the door and no one answered.

Ze Huo kept staring at Ling Miao, and the two of them were frozen in front of the door, Ling Miao felt embarrassed, coughed and said, "Sir's body, can you really leave now?"

"Yes. Ze Hui replied expressionlessly.
