Chapter 542: The End of the Road
"Shut up and stop talking!"
Ye Fusu had a splitting headache, as if he remembered something. Under Gu Wanzhou's provocation, he immediately clenched his fists and swung at her.
But Scar stopped him with his quick eyes and hands.
Scar gripped his wrist tightly, as if he wanted to break it.
"Ye Fusu! Calm down!"
Shen Weiyang was tied up and sitting on the ground. When she saw Scar about to break Ye Fusu's wrist, she became anxious and immediately told him to calm down.
"Ye Fusu, calm down and don't be impulsive, okay? They won't show mercy to you."
She didn’t know about Gu Wanzhou, but Scar was like a cold machine, with no emotion in his eyes.
If Gu Wanzhou didn't speak and order him to stop, he didn't seem to care about hurting Ye Xiuli's grandson.
Ye Fusu still couldn't control his emotions impulsively, so Shen Weiyang had no choice but to look at Gu Wanzhou and say, "Gu Wanzhou, he is Ye Xiuli's grandson, his only grandson. If you treat him like this, Ye Xiuli will not let you go."
"Really?" Gu Wanzhou sneered disdainfully, "His father was even sacrificed back then, do you think Ye Xiuli would still care about a grandson?"
However, after she said this, she asked Scar to stop and not let him continue to embarrass Ye Fusu, but took him away.
After they left, Shen Weiyang had time to ask Sui Su, who was also locked in this room: "Su Su, how are you? Why are you here? Where is Brother Liu?"
Sui Su looked like she had injuries on her body and face, and the bruises looked very painful.
When Sui Su heard her asking about Liu Huaichuan's whereabouts, her eyes turned red: "Brother Liu was taken away by Gu Wanzhou. I don't know how he is now. Weiyang, how did you get discovered too?"
Shen Weiyang gritted her teeth and said, “She has always known that we are following her. After I met Duke Charles, she showed up and brought us here.”
After that, she introduced Wu Bai and Liu Xiaowu to Sui Su, briefly explaining Wu Bai's life experience and what Ye Xiuli might do with Wu Bai.
Wu Bai sat next to the unconscious Liu Xiaowu, looking at him with red eyes.
Sui Su looked at the unconscious Liu Xiaowu strangely and asked Shen Weiyang: "Then why is Brother Liu unconscious? Was it Gu Wanzhou who did it?"
"It's me," Wu Bai said hoarsely, "When we were in Minhe Town, we encountered a dragon-spine snake. He pushed me away and got bitten and injured. At that time, he told me it was okay, but, but why is it happening now, why is it happening like this?"
"Sister Weiyang, you must have a way, right? There must be a way to save him, right?"
Wu Bai looked at Shen Weiyang with red eyes, his eyes full of pleading and grief, which made Shen Weiyang feel very uncomfortable.
But there is really no way.
The dragon-backed snake can only be killed by burning it with fire.
She shook her head helplessly.
I really don’t know what to do.
Wu Bai looked at Liu Xiaowu lying beside him silently with red eyes. After a while, he spoke in a hoarse voice: "I haven't called him dad yet."
This one sentence defeated the bitterness in Shen Weiyang's heart and made her cry.
"Xiao Wu, do you remember what Brother Liu said to you before he entrusted you to me?"
Wu Bai pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and said nothing.
But he remembered.
Liu Xiaowu should have known at that time that there was a dragon-spine snake in his body and that he would not live long, so he told him that no matter who it was or what the situation was, he must burn the person possessed by the dragon-spine snake with fire and not be soft-hearted.
He should have realized it then.
He should have known it from the time he entrusted his orphan to Shen Weiyang.
He can't accompany him anymore.
After wandering for half his life, he will eventually lose his loved ones whom he had lost and found again.
"Susu, let's work together to untie the rope. We can't wait here any longer."
Now is not the time to comfort the child, Shen Weiyang must now find a way to take Wu Bo away from here.
No one knows when Ye Xiuli will take Wu Bai to be sacrificed, so she must take Wu Bai away as soon as possible.
Although so many years have passed and they looked down on each other when they trained together, she and Sui Su unexpectedly had a tacit understanding and they quickly worked together to untie such a complicated knot.
After untying the rope, Shen Weiyang immediately went to untie Wu Bai's rope, but when Sui Su was about to untie Liu Xiaowu's rope, Shen Weiyang stopped her: "No, you can't untie it, just leave it like this."
After she finished speaking, she held Wu Bo’s shoulders and looked at him seriously and said, “Xiao Wu, sister knows that you are sensible, and now you also know that I am the real Shen Weiyang, you will believe me, right?”
Wu Bai's eyes fell sadly on the unconscious Liu Xiaowu, and his voice was hoarse: "I'll listen to you. I will carry him on my back and won't untie him."
Liu Xiaowu has been unconscious, and no one knows whether he has been controlled by the dragon-spine snake. If he attacks them on the way to escape after being untied, none of them will be able to escape.
When Wu Bai carried Liu Xiaowu on his back, Shen Weiyang and Sui Su looked at each other, then nodded in tacit understanding. They both kicked the door open and directly overwhelmed Gu Wanzhou's men guarding the door. Then they stepped on the door panel that was pressing on them and ran out. Wu Bai followed behind them with Liu Xiaowu on his back.
Gu Wanzhou soon received the news that Scar was bringing people to chase them.
"Xiao Wu, run quickly, we'll cover your retreat."
Shen Weiyang shouted at Wu Bai.
In fact, running away is just a desperate gamble, but if he doesn't run, he can only watch Wu Bai being dragged away by Ye Xiuli to be sacrificed.
She would rather risk her life to protect Wu Bo than watch a heartless person like Ye Xiuli fulfill his long-cherished wish.
Wu Bai hesitated for a moment, but quickly calmed down and left with Liu Xiaowu on his back.
He would be a burden if he stayed.
Shen Weiyang and Sui Su stood back to back against Scar and his dozen brothers, guarding the direction Wu Bai left. Anyone who rushed up would be kicked into the huge snow pit abyss full of dragon-backed snakes.
But there were more than a dozen of them, and they had been running all the way, so they were not very strong to begin with. After knocking down a few people, they gradually fell into a disadvantage.
At this time, Wu Bai had not run far when Liu Xiaowu, who had been unconscious, suddenly woke up. With an empty look in his eyes, he broke the rope on his body.
Wu Bai staggered forward a few steps and almost fell. After he steadied himself and looked up, he saw Ye Xiuli and Gu Wanzhou standing not far away with indifferent expressions.
Gu Wanzhou held a copper bell in his hand, and with a slight shake, he controlled Liu Xiaowu, causing Liu Xiaowu to turn around and attack Shen Weiyang and Sui Su.
They could kick irrelevant people into the snow pit, but they would never hurt Liu Xiaowu.
Shen Weiyang, you are at the end of your rope. I will watch you die miserably in front of me today.
A woman like you should have died long ago.
If it weren't for you, Changting wouldn't have died in such a deserted place, leaving me without even being able to see him for the last time.
