Chu Qiluo turned around to confront her, and said with a smile: "They are just guards, how can you be so cruel to them? Why don't you just give them pleasure after such torture?"
"I can't kill people." She didn't want to be entangled anymore. The longer it was delayed, the worse it would be for her: "Or, I can cure them and return them to you intact, so that we can meet by chance and not recognize you again?"
There was a hint of urgency in her hoarse voice, and she obviously couldn't hold her breath. The more anxious she became, the calmer Chu Qiluo became: "Young master is highly skilled and always works alone, but this time he came out of the valley in person and brought his wife with him.
Wei, I'm curious, who can ask you to take charge?"
The young master immediately fell silent, and after a long time he sighed: "I'm not as good as you, I admit it. If you don't give in, I can't break the promise I made. If you want to kill me, just kill me."
Kill her? No, of course this is not a good idea. Killing her will cut off all clues, and will offend a large number of people. Chu Qiluo frowned: "Young Master, you are serious, Qiluo has no intention of hurting your life.
I just hope that without touching the oath, the young master can reveal some information to me so that I can be prepared."
It's not about telling the content of the agreement...it doesn't conflict with her oath. The girl in white thought for a moment and nodded: "You can ask."
"I want to know if the young master is here to kill us?" Chu Qiluo glanced at the big pit with a hint of intent.
"No. I was invited by someone to bluff and force you to change your ways." She lowered her head: "He didn't ask me to kill you."
Just to scare them. Chu Qiluo glanced at the guards who were slowly standing up at the bottom of the pit, with a cold face: "Thank you, young master."
The man kneeling on the ground immediately rushed over, and the two slowly disappeared into the woods. Ye Tingyu looked at the blood on the heads and faces of the guards who were dragged up, and squeezed the sword in his hand: "Brother, we can't let them
Go and tell the news, and I will intercept them!"
Ye Langxie glanced at him sharply: "Those who act without authorization will be dealt with according to military regulations."
Ye Tingyu held the sword bitterly and said nothing.
The guards regained their ability to move after a short rest. Only the guard at the top was drilled into the brain by the Gu. He lost too much blood and could not get up. The two guards around him jumped up to the pit on his shoulders, but he could only collapse.
On the ground, it was impossible to stand up.
It shouldn't be, you should be fine after collecting the Gu worms... Chu Qiluo rolled up her sleeves and felt his pulse, frowning: "You are still seriously injured?"
"Yes." The guard's face turned gray gradually, but there was still a faint smile on his lips: "The injury was on the left rib. The voodoo crawled in without any effort and has already eaten me.
His internal organs." He smiled brightly: "It's okay, I've always been afraid of being punished, but now I don't even need to be punished."
Gu worms generally do not hurt the internal organs. They only burrow into the human body and work hard to penetrate the blood vessels. However, if there is no physical barrier, they will go crazy when they smell the smell of blood and gnaw out the internal organs without hesitation.
Reaching out to hold his hand, Ye Langxie looked at him calmly and asked, "Is there anyone at home?"
"Back to the prince, I have no family members, only one sworn brother, who carried the first sedan to Yasang." He took a breath and tried to smile: "If one day..." He hesitated for a moment, lowered his eyes: "That's all.
.Life and death are determined by fate, wealth is in heaven, I only hope that the prince can get what he wants." He smiled brightly, his eyes were hazy and distant, as if he had seen that day coming.
He obviously wanted to beg Ye Langxie to protect his brother, but when he thought about Ye Langxie's identity, his mission and Ye Langxie's goal, he finally gave up because he knew very well that if Ye Langxie had
In danger, his brother and hundreds of his bodyguards would risk their lives without hesitation. Even if Ye Langxie intended to spare his life, it would be useless, because they existed for Ye Langxie.
Their mission is to protect Prince Chen of Ye Langxie and Yueshang.
Chu Qiluo pursed her lips and looked at his face that was gradually turning gray, and looked at Ye Langxie in front of him expressionlessly.
At this moment, Ye Langxie is no longer the Langxie in front of her, he is not the enchanting man who drank wine with her, laughed and cursed. He is the prince, carrying the life-long efforts and expectations of countless people. He cannot be weak or retreat, because
Once he gives in, he abandons all the supporters hidden behind him. Without him, they have no way to survive.
Ye Langxie obviously understood this better. He stretched out his hand and touched the guard's chest with cold fingertips. The slight temperature seemed to burn his fingers. Pain spread from the fingertips inch by inch and gradually reached his heart.
"Let's go." Ye Langxie smiled slightly and clapped his hand without hesitation.
The guard slowly closed his eyes, with a smile on his lips. He walked away feeling at ease.
Chu Qiluo looked at his back and suddenly felt that he was cold. He seemed to be shaking. He needed warmth... She couldn't help but step forward: "Ye..."
Closing his eyes, Ye Langxie slowly retracted his fist and said in a deep voice: "Camp where you are." His voice was cold and without any emotion.
Chu Qiluo suddenly opened her eyes wide and was startled. She thought of something, then smiled softly and lowered her eyes and stepped back. In this moment, she suddenly saw the distance between the two more clearly.
She is wise, but he always sees through every plan she makes; she is calm, but is always defeated when she meets him. She is defeated by him, time and time again. She is unwilling to take advantage of him and is angry, but more...
sad.
It’s not that she hasn’t been touched along the way, but what happens after being touched? Every time he gives, every bit of warmth, hug, and kiss hides all kinds of unknown darkness. She can’t even tell what’s hidden under his smile.
Is it true or false? He and she are, after all, people from two different worlds.
Pressing her heart, she felt empty. Where was her heart?
She slowly slid down against the tree trunk, her mind went blank, and she couldn't help but look back at Ye Langxie.
Ye Langxie erected a tombstone, leaned against it with his eyes closed and meditated, and suddenly looked up at her as if he was aware of it.
The two people's eyes met, and the undercurrent surged. No matter how much emotion they expressed, they eventually turned into calm. They looked at each other calmly for a moment, and then looked away without leaving a trace. They knew it in their hearts.
The night was getting dark, and while the pursuers were still searching all the ships in the direction they came from, Wu Chenhuan led his people to block the ship he had hired before. After everyone had eaten, they were all tired and tired, so they fell asleep casually leaning against each other.
.
There seemed to be warmth approaching in the haze. Chu Qiluo tilted her body, couldn't help but get closer to the elegant fragrance, and fell asleep deeply. Lu Chun had slept too much before, but now she couldn't fall asleep. She looked back and saw her sitting up and down under the moonlight.
The two of them couldn't help but want to cause trouble. They blinked, flew up the tree, hung upside down and whispered softly: "Your Highness likes Qiluo?"
