"Still not coming out?" Mu Jingrui didn't even raise his eyelids, and there was no emotion or joy in his tone.
Shangguan Wan Ning and Zheng Zhixing, who were hiding behind, looked at each other and complained about each other.
"It was you who spoke so loudly just now."
"What does it have to do with me? It's because you don't know martial arts and can't regulate your breathing." Zheng Zhixing looked at the frosty Mu Jingrui and said, "Go ahead by yourself, he won't beat you to death anyway."
After that, he ran away in a flash.
Shangguan Wan Ning could only walk out alone and dejectedly.
"come over."
Mu Jingrui stretched out his hand to Shangguan Wan Ning.
Shangguan Wan Ning obediently put her hand into Mu Jingrui's palm and asked tentatively: "Are you really... not willing to negotiate peace with them?"
"Based on the current situation, there is really no need to negotiate peace. It won't take long for me to annihilate their entire family to avoid future troubles."
Mu Jingrui said calmly: "I don't want to wait until they recuperate before launching a large-scale attack in the future. There are no such precedents. If it continues, it will only cause more casualties."
"But..." Shangguan Wan Ning thought of those fleeing refugees, "Jing Rui, have you ever thought that the people are innocent. Whether they are our people or the people of the barbarians, their expectations are just to live an ordinary life.
Peaceful days.”
Mu Jingrui shook Shangguan Wan Ning's hand, with a fond smile on his lips.
"Don't think too much, I will take care of these things."
Shangguan Wanning hesitated to speak and nodded helplessly.
She really shouldn't get involved in military affairs. However, she always felt a little uneasy in her heart. She felt that Mu Jingrui was gradually getting closer to the evil god Zhennan King in her memory of her previous life.
Shangguan Wan Ning returned to her room and looked through medical books but was at a loss.
Even if there were records in the book on how to use acupuncture to force toxins out of the body, she would not dare to try it easily given her way of doing things.
If he misses, not only will he not be able to save Sun Jinyao, but he will also be sent away.
Shangguan Wan Ning didn't want to and didn't dare to take this risk.
After much hesitation, she came to the place where the barbarian saint's son was imprisoned.
Mu Jingrui knew that the Holy Son was capable of witchcraft, so she kept an extremely strict eye on him. Under the leadership of the soldiers, she passed through many obstacles before meeting the Holy Son who was even more embarrassed.
The Holy Son heard the footsteps and slowly raised his head.
His eyes met Shangguan Wanning's, and suddenly, he showed a strange smile.
This smile made Shangguan Wan Ning feel creepy.
But she still mustered up the courage to take a few steps forward. She looked at the Holy Son coldly and said, "How is it? Isn't it uncomfortable to be imprisoned?"
"Girl, when you came to me, you didn't just ask me if I felt okay?" Shengzi stood up and walked to Shangguan Wan Ning. The two looked at each other across the wooden fence, "We don't have much time."
Time is running out?
Shangguan Wan Ning's heart skipped a beat, and she instantly sank to the bottom of the valley.
She instinctively thought that the Holy Son was threatening her with Sun Jinyao's life.
"That's right, your time is indeed running out. General Mu will definitely not let you go."
"Hahaha," the Holy Son looked up to the sky and laughed, "Did you come to this place just to remind me that I am about to die? Girl, you don't want to speak first because you don't want to be controlled by others. But I tell you, as long as you want
If you get something useful from me, you will be passive."
Shangguan Wan Ning suddenly realized that it would not work to play tricks on the man in front of her because he was an expert in this field.
"Okay, then I won't talk nonsense to you." Shangguan Wanning took a deep breath, "Tell me how to detoxify my friend. As long as you tell me, I will do something within my power, and you
I’ll exchange it with you for just what I need.”
"You are not too stupid to understand what equivalent exchange is." The Holy Son raised his hand and stroked his terrifying face, and his smile gradually faded.
For a long time, the atmosphere fell into silence.
"It's not impossible to save your friend. However, it takes one life in exchange for another life."
"What's the meaning?"
"In this world, I am the only one who can detoxify the poison I have given. I can help your friend detoxify. However, I need your blood to treat the pain of my backlash."
Shangguan Wan Ning's face changed slightly and she clenched her fists, trying not to let the Holy Son see that her body was shaking.
She really wanted to save Sun Jinyao, but she was a little scared if she was asked to sacrifice her own life.
"How is it?" The Holy Son stared at Shangguan Wan Ning and sneered coldly, "As far as I know, he was poisoned to save you. He can die for you, but what about you? It seems that you are not worth it.
He does this."
These words of the Holy Son made Shangguan Wan Ning feel ashamed.
"Even if you can cure the backlash, you can't escape the prison. I advise you to change the conditions."
Mu Jingrui's voice came, and Shangguan Wan Ning turned around hurriedly.
She saw the helpless reproach in Mu Jingrui's eyes. She had no choice but to lower her head.
"As long as you are willing to tell me how to detoxify the poison, I can release the tens of thousands of soldiers and people of your barbarian tribe who were captured by me."
Mu Jingrui's willingness to propose such an exchange condition made Shangguan Wan Ning's eyes light up and she looked at the Holy Son with joy.
One life, so many lives.
However, the Holy Son just snorted coldly.
"You can kill those people if you want. What does it have to do with me? I still say the same thing, what I want is her." Shengzi pointed at Shangguan Wan Ning, "Maybe even if I cure the backlash, I will die.
But at least my appearance can be restored. I don’t want to look like this again when I am reincarnated in my next life.”
Shangguan Wan Ning was stunned for a moment, stunned by the Holy Son's words.
She could never understand how a person who accepted people's worship and worship could be so selfish.
He could obviously save so many people, but he chose to give up for the sake of an unknown reincarnation.
This is simply...
Shangguan Wan Ning wished she could rush over and slap him hard twice.
"Then you just wait here to die." Mu Jingrui took Shangguan Wan Ning's hand and left.
Using those prisoners in exchange was his bottom line.
He didn't want Shangguan Wan Ning to live with guilt and regret in the days to come.
But if he exchanged it with Shangguan Wan Ning, he still felt...
Sacrifice Sun Jinyao.
At best, burn some more paper for him.
Shangguan Wan Ning's heart was heavy and she let Mu Jingrui drag her out.
"Wait a moment."
The Holy Son saw how decisive and ruthless Mu Jingrui was. The person who was poisoned was not as important as he thought.
He couldn't give up this only opportunity.
"We can change the way. I will take this girl's blood to treat the backlash, but I won't kill her. So... what do you think?"
Shangguan Wan Ning was overjoyed. She thought it was acceptable. She was about to go back to discuss it in detail when Mu Jingrui calmly stopped her.
