Chapter 72: Portrait
Antares restrained Gu Weirui as soon as he recovered his strength, but Gu Weirui didn't seem to have any accidents. She was demure and indifferent, with a look of putting life and death out of the way, which made Antares couldn't help but be moved.
On the other hand, Antares didn't know that Ye Mei was fake death. But since she saw Gu Weirui fascinated her ability, she knew that Gu Weirui must also be a master of using drugs, so she was a little suspicious that Ye Mei had saved Gu Weirui, so she carried Gu Weirui down from the beam of the house, and after arriving at Ye Mei's side, Antares checked Ye Mei's body again, and the results showed that she did not have any breath.
Antares put his mind at ease, and said to Gu Weirui: "Okay, since you want to see the sect leader, then let's go." ”
Although she said this, she still didn't dare to easily unlock Gu Weirui's acupoint, and the previous incident made Antares have to be jealous of the other party.
Antares not only has a great ability to poison, but also has a high level of martial arts, except for Ji Xiao in Four Seasons Villa, I'm afraid that even Ji Shan may not be her opponent. She easily concealed the people in the villa and took Gu Weirui out.
It's just that Antares didn't notice it, and Ji Xiao followed her unhurriedly.
Ji Xiao is very particular about stalkers, he won't get too close, and he only locks on to the other party with a feeling, so even if the other party has some spiritual sense, it is extremely difficult to find that he is following.
After walking for about thirty miles, we came to a dwelling at the bottom of the mountain. There are no other homes around the house, isolated behind a small hillside. At this time, the slanting sun shone on the hillside, pulling out a long shadow, and the jackdaws counted, around a locust tree in front of the dwelling, occasionally chirping, quite lonely and desolate.
Now that it is almost summer, the weather is gradually getting warmer, and this locust tree is a little abnormal, and it has bloomed early. Clusters of butterfly-shaped white locust flowers grow in clusters on the branches, overlapping and overhanging, looking from a distance, like a funeral, close, and the surrounding barrenness, it sets off a gloomy and eerie atmosphere.
A young girl in a green shirt and green sleeves was sitting cross-legged under a locust tree, and a black cat was squatting on the roof opposite her, with a faint glow from its sea-blue eyes. The white locust flowers, like paper money, swaying on the trees, occasionally come in the wind, as if ghosts are groaning.
The girl closed her eyes cross-legged, cold sweat dripping from her forehead, and her lips lost their blood, as if she was fighting against something invisible.
Antares walked over with Gu Weirui, but didn't dare to get too close to the locust tree. She bowed slightly to the black cat on the roof, as if to give a salute. The black cat opened its mouth and spit out a cloud of qi, and when a gust of wind blew, there was some yang and breath, making an invisible passage without a gloomy and strange atmosphere.
Antares then walked through this invisible road with Gu Weirui, and finally entered the house.
Gu Weirui was also secretly surprised when she saw the girl in the green shirt and green sleeves, because it was Chen Xiaohan. Apparently she's not doing very well right now, and she must be trapped by something. She is now heavy on the cold poison caused by Yin Qi, and in the monk's words, it is a ghost yin physique, and she can actually feel many special things.
Therefore, Gu Weirui seemed to be a Buddha who saw that those acacia flowers were actually human faces, expressionless, very terrifying. But behind these faces, there seems to be an invisible silk thread, and the source of the silk thread is the black cat on the roof.
She didn't have time to discover more, so she was taken into the house by Antares.
There is a small courtyard inside, and there is a person standing in the hall facing the gate, she is wearing a purple dress, with a gilt gold ribbon wrapped around her waist, her long black hair is as black as a waterfall, and her back is slender and graceful, which will naturally make people infinitely reverie what a peerless demeanor she is.
In front of the woman is a shrine with incense lit on it. The curling cigarette smoke conceals a portrait of a man with a sword and a white coat on a horse. The man's white clothes are a little yellowed, I don't know if the portrait is a little yellowed, or if the white clothes of the person in the painting are already old. But the scabbard of his sword was old, for the leather of the scabbard was somewhat torn.
The man had a shallow smile on his face, like the sunshine in spring, which made him an ordinary appearance, which made people look profound.
Gu Weirui knew that the woman was Mu Qing, but she didn't know who the man in this portrait was, why Mu Qing wanted to worship his portrait like a god.
Antares bowed outside the door and said, "Sect Master, this woman wants to see you." ”
Mu Qing turned around slowly, her appearance was ten times more moving than her back, Rao had once glanced at her, Gu Weirui, as a woman, was still a little distracted.
Mu Qing smiled lightly: "It turned out to be you, now that the meditation wish on your body has been expelled, what are you going to do with me." ”
As she spoke, her fingers flicked slightly, and Ling Qi was vigorous, unlocking Gu Weirui's acupoint.
Gu Weirui was able to move freely and walked into the hall. She said, "I don't understand something and want to ask you." ”
Mu Qing glanced at her from beginning to end and smiled, "You ask." ”
Gu Weirui said: "Why did you kill the Zhang family in the first place?"
Mu Qing smiled and said, "You came to ask for Ji Xiao?"
Gu Weirui nodded and said, "Sort of, can you tell me?"
Mu Qing glanced at Antares and said, "You go out first, and I'll be alone with this Gu girl for a while." ”
Antares had no reason to disobey his orders, and quickly withdrew.
After Mu Qing waited for Antares to go out, he said with a smile: "Before answering your question, can I ask you a question first." ”
Gu Weirui paused slightly and said, "You say." ”
From Miss Zhang's memorial memory, she learned that Mu Qing was actually a very gentle woman in general, so although Mu Qing was gentle towards her now, she was not very surprised. It is precisely because Mu Qing is like this every day that her uninhibited killing between talking and laughing makes it even more elusive to her true nature.
Mu Qing said leisurely: "I can see that you are in a very bad physical condition now, so I want to ask you, if you are given a chance to live forever, but the premise is that you kill Ji Yu, will you seize this opportunity?"
Gu Weirui was slightly stunned, and quickly replied: "I won't kill him." ”
Mu Qing looked at her for a long time and said, "I believe, at least that's what you think now." ”
Gu Weirui said: "So this is the reason why you killed the head of the Zhang family?"
Mu Qing shook his head and said, "No, look at this portrait." ”
Gu Weirui said: "The person in this portrait has a close relationship with you?"
Mu Qing smiled and said, "I used to love him, just as you loved Ji Xiao." ”
Although she was smiling, Gu Weirui felt that there was a lot of desolation in her smile. The man's smile in the portrait is like the sunshine of spring, which can make a hundred flowers bloom, while Mu Qing's smile is like the sunshine of winter, melting the ice and snow and making the surroundings colder.
"You killed him. Gu Weirui couldn't help asking.
