For some reason, Zheng Xueyi suddenly calmed down after hearing these words.
She looked at Xu Qingyi's back, as calm as water.
"Will the Grand Master have a solution after hearing this?"
Zheng Xueyi asked back, but Xu Qingyi didn't say anything, just turned his back to her. Thinking of the emergency situation just now, Zheng Xueyi's hands gradually clenched. If Yan Hui and Xu Qingyi hadn't rescued her, she would probably be a ghost on the road to the underworld.
"Actually, I don't know much either."
Sigh and slowly relax the tension in your heart
"It's just that the princess said she needed the blood of the prince from the Western Regions, and it's something very important, so she asked me for help."
"I didn't expect that the barbarian from the Western Regions would be so despicable and sharp."
"Prince Leiman himself is an expert in using Gu."
Xu Qingyi turned around
"If you get within three meters of him, his insects will detect your presence, and you won't be able to escape."
"Many poisonous insects have different effects in different scenarios."
Zheng Xueyi felt a little unfamiliar with the two people involved in the Gu Chong incident.
Gu Qingsheng did not deliberately hide the fact that he knew how to use Gu, nor did he want to pursue the matter. Everyone has their own secrets.
But now, she was a little strange.
The Gu on his arm felt very peaceful. Why did Gu Qingsheng use the same thing as the prince from the Western Regions?
"A lot of things..."
Xu Qingyi glanced at Zheng Xueyi twice, as if he could see through her heart.
"Maybe she's keeping it from you for your own good."
"If it requires Leiman's blood, then it might be a method of fighting Gu."
And this fighting Gu tactic was obviously thought up by Miao Lanlan.
"Fighting Gu?"
Zheng Xueyi asked
"Will there be any danger?"
"If you can get Leiman's blood, then she won't be in danger. But if you don't get it..."
Xu Qingyi was silent for a moment
"Maybe, it's hard to say..."
Before he finished speaking, Zheng Xueyi in front of him stood up, holding the sword at his waist tightly, and said in a fierce voice:
“I’ll go again!”
"Even if I die this time, I will definitely bring back that barbarian's blood."
She turned around and strode towards the door with a very determined posture. Yan Hui, who was standing beside her, almost choked on his sip of water and quickly ran to Zheng Xueyi to block her way.
"No, no, no, no!"
Yan Hui shook his head nervously and almost stuttered.
"I can't save you again! I still have to save my face!"
"Besides, you'll still die if you go. How can you get the blood if you're already dead? Why are you so stubborn?"
"What should we do then?"
Zheng Xueyi suddenly raised her voice, her face flushed, and her eyes, which refused to admit defeat, suddenly showed a trace of worry and self-blame.
"If I don't go, the princess will be in danger. It doesn't matter if I die, but if the princess is in danger, then..."
Then there would be no hope for his village at all.
Ever since he met Zheng Xueyi, she always looked cold and tough, and her character was meticulous and serious. Seeing her like this now, Yan Hui felt a lump in his throat, and was a little surprised and didn't know what to say.
"Yan Hui is right."
Seeing Zheng Xueyi's insistence, Xu Qingyi also consoled her.
"You'll die if you go. Leiman possesses more than just witchcraft. Even if Yan Hui and I want to hurt him, it will be very troublesome."
If Xu Qingyi said this, Zheng Xueyi would still believe it, but...
He looked at Yan Hui with a questioning look, and his tone was very questioning.
"You also know martial arts?"
Yan Hui: ...
Feeling offended.
"In this case, does the Imperial Master have any good ideas?"
With both of them blocking her way, she couldn't get out. Zheng Xueyi simply put the sword on the table and folded her arms across her chest.
"There are ways."
Xu Qingyi placed a small wine glass on the table and stretched out a white arm to Zheng Xueyi.
"Using mine should be fine."
…
In the early morning, the grass is still covered with dew, and the air is slightly cool and moist.
All the candles in the room burned out. Gu Qingsheng sat on a chair with his eyes slightly narrowed, tapping the table with his hands as if he was thinking about something.
This has been going on all night, and the sound of finger snapping has made Miao Lanlan's ears calloused.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
She shouted
"Stop knocking! I feel like the sound of you knocking on the table keeps lingering in my head, and it's giving me a headache."
"I wonder how Xueyi is doing..."
Gu Qingsheng withdrew his hand and pinched his forehead. The pain in his forehead had not stopped all night.
The fog outside the window had not yet dissipated, and before I could finish my words, I heard two light knocks on the door.
Her body reacted before her mind did. Her action of standing up startled Miao Lanlan, who was carrying her on her body. She almost ran to the door and opened it, only to see Zheng Xueyi, who was shrouded in mist and had a cold face.
It was like a huge stone fell to the ground in his heart. Gu Qingsheng grabbed Zheng Xueyi's hand and was very nervous. He didn't even have time to let her into the house. He looked at her repeatedly.
"Are you okay? Are you not hurt?"
Gu Qingsheng's nervous look made Zheng Xueyi feel uncomfortable. She scratched her head and lowered her eyes.
"It's okay... I..."
He took out a very delicate bottle from his hand, and there were spots of crimson on the mouth of the bottle.
"I……"
"You got it?"
After a moment of surprise, Gu Qingsheng was more stunned.
"Damn, she's awesome."
Miao Lanlan was very surprised.
The more the two thought about this matter last night, the more complicated it became.
Letting Zheng Xueyi go without a plan might put her in danger. With such worries, Gu Qingsheng couldn't let go of his worry the whole night.
It’s good that Zheng Xueyi has returned safely and brought Leiman’s blood with her.
This was a bit unexpected for both of them.
For some reason, Zheng Xueyi seemed to be evasive when she heard Gu Qingsheng ask this.
Xu Qingyi's words, telling her not to tell Gu Qingsheng about this, were still circulating in her mind.
But when Gu Qingsheng wanted to pick up the bottle, he hesitated and his fingers curled up and retracted inadvertently.
The tone was even cautious, and Zheng Xueyi calmed down for a moment.
"Princess."
"National Master...what do you think of Xu Qingyi?"
It had been a long time since he had heard the name Xu Qingyi, and Zheng Xueyi's question made Gu Qingsheng stunned.
A familiar crescent-colored figure appeared before my eyes, and my mind was suddenly caught in a huge vortex of emotions.
She forced a smile
"The Imperial Master is naturally the purest and most innocent person in Jin and Chu."
"That……"
Zheng Xueyi asked again
"Will he hurt the princess? Do you have any grudge against him?"
This is Xu Qingyi's blood, not Leiman's.
Even if Xu Qingyi didn't let her say it, she wanted to thoroughly understand the relationship between the two of them and give the blood bead to Gu Qingsheng only after making sure there were no other factors.
But this time, what he received was Gu Qingsheng's resolute and affirmative look.
"Won't."
