Chapter 148 He lowered his posture a little more and did it
The medicine bowl was placed in front of Helan Wei.
But he didn't drink it.
The man panted and looked at Xie Yanyu.
Then ask her, "Do you want me to drink this?"
The words fell.
Xie Chengjin also glanced at her.
In reality, it didn't matter whether she wanted Helan Wei to drink or not, because even if Helan Wei didn't want to drink, he would have a way to make him drink. But at this moment, he also wanted to hear her answer.
The medicine bowl lay there quietly.
There is black medicine juice inside.
——Actually, it’s not medicine.
It is Xie Chengjin's blood.
If any part of his skin was scratched, the blood that came out would be red, but the blood in his heart was forced out from his heart veins. The residual poison had been lingering in his body for more than ten years, and his heart veins had long been corroded by the poison. Even the blood that was forced out was black. Compared to a bowl of blood, it looked more like a bowl of medicine, a bowl of poison.
The reason he was able to suppress the love thread Gu was simply because the poison in his body was more poisonous than the love thread Gu.
In her previous life, she was under house arrest.
When the love thread Gu attacked, Xie Chengjin gave her his heart's blood.
In this life, I have to give my heart's blood to an irrelevant person——
Xie Chengjin also thought this was ridiculous.
One drop is enough to make people weak, let alone a bowl.
At this moment, he also felt that he was forcing himself to stay together. He gently pinched Xie Yanyu's wrist. He found that he didn't want to see her getting intimate with others, not just Li Xun, but also Helan Wei. Maybe no one could do it. He found her somewhat untidy clothes very irritating.
So he slowed down again.
Then he reached out and straightened her messy collar.
His eyes fell on her, but he saw that she glanced at Helan Wei, and her eyes seemed to pause at the other's waist unintentionally.
Then she said, "How about... just forget it?"
She thought for a moment and said, "It's not like there isn't a better solution. It doesn't necessarily require taking medicine."
The words fell.
Then he heard Helan Wei laugh while panting.
But when he raised his eyes, he met Xie Chengjin's cold eyes.
After a moment of silence.
She heard Xie Chengjin say again: "Don't you want to break the spirit ruler?"
Xie Yanyu nodded.
Xie Chengjin then said, "Under the moat. You don't have to go tomorrow morning. If you want to go, you can go now. After you place the jade pendant, I will help you get the Zheling Ruler."
ah.
In fact, it won’t take much time to get the Zheling Ruler.
But if things were settled sooner, Xie Yanyu would be able to relax a little sooner, otherwise he would always feel like something was hanging on his heart.
In comparison, this matter seemed to attract her more.
So she didn't say anything else and nodded: "Okay, then brother, take me there now."
The words fell.
But Xie Chengjin glanced at Helan Wei and said, "What about him? Should he take the medicine?"
This time.
The one with a cold expression became Helan Wei.
It's just that he was tortured by the love Gu, his expression was cold but his face was flushed, and he seemed not very intimidating. He looked at Xie Yanyu through the Mingxin Talisman, and saw her nod from the vague outline. He didn't even know whether to laugh or be angry. She nodded, did she still care about his life or death?
Since she cares about his life or death...
Helan Wei raised his hand and was about to knock over the medicine bowl.
But the next second,
Xie Chengjin used his spiritual power to take the medicine bowl from the air, then took a step forward.
The man bent down expressionlessly, directly pressed Helan Wei's neck, and then forced the medicine into his mouth. His movements were direct, regardless of his struggles, and he showed no mercy. Even though Helan Wei was choking and coughing, the liquid in the medicine bowl was still poured into his mouth, dripping from his chin -
So strange.
Xie Yanyu stood behind them and watched the scene. He felt that these two people did not seem like old family friends...
Why does this posture look like a feud?
*
Xie Yanyu followed Xie Chengjin to the moat.
It doesn't take long to get here from the inn by carriage, but once you reach the shore, you have to change to a boat.
It was almost dusk now.
The sky changed from the boundless pure blue to a slightly orange hue.
The waves on the river surface reflected the sky, and there was also a hint of light orange. The boats made shimmering waves on the water.
Just like the last time I came.
The boat stopped among the lotus leaves.
Xie Yanyu sat on the boat, waiting for Xie Chengjin to use his magic to break the water surface, but he didn't expect that -
Xie Chengjin used a different spell from last time.
As the waves parted from both sides, Xie Chengjin also spat out a mouthful of blood. It seemed that he had lost the strength to sit up straight. With one hand supporting the edge of the boat, he leaned against the side of the boat, gasping for breath, looking very weak.
How can you be so weak?
Xie Yanyu was a little surprised.
Then she heard the system say in her head: "I just looked it up in the book and found out. If you don't come here early in the morning, you are forcing your way into the formation. If you force your way in, you will be countered by the formation, which is equivalent to being seriously injured by the power within the formation."
Xie Yanyu:?
She moved closer and looked at Xie Chengjin.
Then the system continued: "He's been draining a basin of blood every day lately, and he's already very weak. The medicine I gave Helan Wei to suppress the love Gu was actually a bowl of his heart blood. Do you remember when you took Helan Wei's heart blood before, and one drop made him faint?"
It sighed, "If you ask me, Xie Chengjin is a ruthless man. He poured out a bowl of his heart's blood, and now he can still force himself to use this move. I guess this move was the last straw that broke the camel's back, which is why he looks so weak now."
Xie Yanyu: ...
Xie Yanyu said: In fact, there is only a few hours difference between coming now and coming tomorrow morning.
Just put a jade pendant.
It wasn't something so important that it would cost lives. In Xie Yanyu's opinion, it wasn't worth forcing his way into the formation regardless of the backlash.
She often weighed the pros and cons. For her, this had become a part of her flesh and blood, her instinct. If it were her, she would never harm her body just to enter the formation a few hours earlier.
The system was also confused: [Right. So what is Xie Chengjin doing? Is he dizzy from losing too much blood? Or—]
It thought for a moment: [Or maybe it's simply because I don't want you to be with Helan Wei.]
Xie Yanyu didn't say anything.
She felt something was different again.
If he didn't want to see her getting close to Helan Wei, he could just take her away by force. After all, he had already put pressure on the poison in Helan Wei and knew that Helan Wei would not die. So she would not disobey him so forcefully over such a small matter.
He was like this before.
If he didn't want her to do something, he would interrupt her forcefully, or stare at her and take her away. He was never the type to care about what others thought.
What was he doing now? He wanted her to do it willingly?
Xie Yanyu looked at him.
The boat had reached the bottom of the water. Seeing that he was very weak, she stretched out her hand to sense the flow of spiritual energy in his body.
But as soon as her hand approached him, he grabbed it.
It turns out he wasn't dizzy.
She clearly had her eyes closed, but Xie Chengjin was holding her hand.
He lowered his head, so her hand was right in front of him. His eyelashes trembled. Because he was weak, his mind was very confused. For a moment, reason seemed to leave him. He lowered his head again and put his face close to her hand.
These are not particularly beautiful hands.
The fingers are very slender, but the skin is a little rough and has many small scars on it.
But he leaned in closer, wanting a kiss.
But when the tip of his nose was about to touch her fingers,
He smelled the faint scent of medicine on her hand and woke up in an instant.
He lowered his eyes to look at her fingers for a long time, then he let go of her hand.
"Go ahead. I'll rest on the boat for a while. You can just place the jade pendant in the formation."
*
In the inn.
Helan Wei was locked up again.
The sky darkened from dusk to pitch black.
The room was silent and there was no light at all as it was getting dark.
The Mingxin Talisman was of little use to him to begin with, and at this moment, he could not see the outlines of the objects around him, which was no different from the feeling he had when he was blind before.
Sweat was pouring down his body, and his clothes were soaked. He tilted his neck back, and the love poison tortured him. The desire in his body rose, but there was no outlet, so it could only accumulate in his body. No matter what method he used, he could not relieve it. More and more desire turned into knives, which were sharpened and scraped every inch of his body.
He has no strength.
He tilted his neck back, but the feeling forced him to grab his clothes and the ground, gasping for breath and leaving marks of his nails on the floor.
Even the last time when Xie Yanyu locked me up in the library, I didn't feel this painful.
Because the poison has become serious to a certain extent, the body will explode and die, and when dead, there will be no feeling; the last time before he exploded and died, she still came to help him, but this time because of Xie Chengjin's "medicine", no one helped him, and the poison had already reached the most serious level. Every moment, he was experiencing the pain of exploding and dying, but his body did not really explode, and he could not die.
Cutting with a blunt knife one by one is always more torturous than slicing the throat with one quick blow.
Tears fell in a pool.
The veins on his neck were bulging, and he couldn't even scream.
Blurred.
He thought of his previous life again——
Previous life.
In his previous life, Xie Yanyu was under house arrest and also drank this medicine.
I was locked in darkness, unable to see clearly because of night blindness, and I barely survived the whole night.
But how long will this long night last?
One hour, two hours, three, four, or even five hours? Every second turned into a knife, slicing her from the previous life and him from this life.
He was peeping in from the side at that time.
Just like this time, she left him and left.
What was he thinking at that time? Helan Wei didn't remember.
What was she thinking just now? Helan Wei didn't know.
He missed her so much at this moment, thinking about her, wanting her to help him. He couldn't see or hear her voice, and he knew she was gone. He was going crazy because of this feeling. So, in her previous life, when she was poisoned that night, did she also have a moment of longing, hoping for him to help her? Did she also hate him and think about how much better it would be if she hadn't drunk the love thread Gu?
Helan Wei thought of the days he could not see.
The days of being locked up in a dark and confined room in a brothel.
He drank the love poison and was tortured, while she squatted beside him, enjoying herself as if she were watching the fun.
He deserves to be hated. Who dares to treat him like this?
Every time he thought of these things, he was filled with hatred. Even when he experienced what she had experienced, he would wonder if she had felt the same way in her previous life. But for some reason, at this moment, perhaps because some emotion had reached a critical point, the hatred disappeared in an instant, and only one thought remained in his mind -
Isn't he suffering the consequences of what he did in his previous life?
Actually there is more.
More and more.
When he didn't give her a name, she should have been unwilling; when he treated her like a bird for fun, she should have felt embarrassed and angry; when she was under house arrest, she should have felt the same hatred, anger, and desire as he did now; when she couldn't see, she felt panic and inferiority;
What else is there?
How did she feel every time she brought him tea or water?
How did she feel every time she humbled herself in front of him?
When in the brothel, the head performer would tell her to lower her head and bend her body.
He has actually done all of this in recent days.
Because he found that if he lowered his posture and softened his tone, he could get more of her attention. He wanted it, so he did it. He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
In the past, he tried to make a pot of tea, wait for her in the clan hall, and draw a map for her, and he felt that he had done a lot.
Because what he wanted was so simple, no one dared to disobey him. Even if it was the most precious treasure in the world, he could get it with just a flick of his finger and maintaining a superior attitude. He was willing to do some humble things to show his favor, so why couldn't he get what he wanted in return?
But at this moment.
It seemed as if there were too many accumulated doubts, or too many feelings that had accumulated before. Now another situation similar to hers had happened, and these feelings had finally accumulated enough weight to move the last weight.
So it's very confusing.
He felt that maybe he should try to go a little lower and try to actually do something.
because.
He suddenly wanted to know more.
How did she feel when she did these things for him in her previous life?
