◎ "I want the love poison to make someone like me."◎
As dusk falls, the birds return to the woods.
There was no electricity in ancient times, so people would return home at sunset and there was basically no nightlife.
Only places like restaurants and brothels still had lights on.
An Jiu tiptoed down from the second floor and came to the front desk of the inn. The waiter was dozing off behind the counter. She tapped the table gently.
The waiter woke up with a start and asked hurriedly, "What do you want, sir?"
An Jiu said: "I'm going out of the city, please ask someone to drive for me."
The waiter hesitated after hearing this and said, "It's getting late. If we go outside the city now, the city gate will be locked and we won't be able to get in."
An Jiu wanted to say, I don't want to go either, but I have no choice. But she held back, without saying a word, she just raised her hand and put a piece of silver on the counter.
The waiter immediately smiled, quickly put the silver into his sleeve, and said, "Please wait, sir. I will ask someone to bring your horse."
After a while, the carriage stopped outside the inn. The driver was a simple and honest old man who was taciturn. The waiter called him Uncle Zhang. He was the groom who fed the horses in the inn and looked very honest.
An Jiu's heart was relieved a little, and he climbed into the car and said to Zhang Bo, "Go out of the city to the charity cemetery in the west of the city."
Zhang Bo said nothing and didn't ask why, he just drove the horse forward.
An Jiu sat alone in the car, which was dark. Pulling open the car curtain, he could see the candlelight in the lanterns in front of every household on both sides of the street. The dim light looked particularly soft, and the stars were like a long river.
However, this glowing river ended outside the city, leaving only the dark and deep night outside.
An Jiu was in a very calm mood, especially calm.
Even though Pei Ji hinted at her to come to Yizhuang, and then she had to "foolishly" look for the love Gu, and then stupidly got caught by the Gu Master, she was not angry at all.
Didn't she know Pei Ji? He just wanted to be a hero and save the beauty again. Because in the original novel, An Jiu fell in love with He Ziqing because of the hero who saved the beauty, so did he think that this would make her like him?
On the way back in the carriage, as soon as he brought up the love Gu, An Jiu guessed what he wanted to do.
She was originally wondering why Pei Ji didn't avoid the plot, but now it seems that he wants to use the reborn "prophet" to carry out his own plan.
It’s like some people who travel through books. It’s not scary to encounter the plot, but it’s scary not to encounter it!
Only with a plot can one predict the future and better control the situation, and the same is true for Pei Ji.
He understood all of the Gu Master's methods, and probably even knew exactly where he was hiding. Even if An Jiu was captured, he would be able to find her and rescue her easily.
Since he has made a plan, An Jiu will of course cooperate with him on this trip.
In essence, they are actually the same. Pei Ji wants to win over her by taking advantage of this opportunity to be a hero and save the beauty, and she also plans to do the same.
So when he mentioned love Gu in the car, An Jiu was stunned for only a moment, and then quickly made the most appropriate response.
An Jiu thought, maybe it was because they were so similar that she admired him?
In the darkness, the girl's red lips slightly raised, and no one could see the smile on her face at this moment.
Uncle Zhang was a good driver. Even at night, he drove steadily with the help of the starlight above his head, and arrived near the charity cemetery in the west of the city without any obstruction.
An Jiu asked him to park the car in the middle of the road instead of going directly to the charity cemetery.
She knew that at this moment, there must be many Huashan disciples hiding outside the charity cemetery.
Pei Ji informed them of the important clues and reminded them that the Gu Master would come at night, so they thought that the people from Huashan Sect would not be too stupid.
An Jiu got off the car alone and walked towards the charity cemetery.
Zhang Bo reminded from behind: "Miss, this place is not safe. Don't go far alone."
An Jiu turned around and said to the old man, "You don't have to wait for me here, drive back. If I haven't come back tomorrow, tell my companions again."
But she felt that it would not be delayed until tomorrow, otherwise why would Pei Ji play the role of a miracle doctor in front of Lin Qingyan and others, and pretend to be Fei Yi to save her?
Nor could he be split in two.
The most likely possibility is that he will deal with the Gu Master tonight, and save her at the same time.
Uncle Zhang hesitated and didn't want to leave. In his opinion, the girl was very young and looked frail. He couldn't bear to leave her alone outside the city.
An Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, old man. I'm not an ordinary person. You can go back by yourself. It's not safe to stay here."
Zhang Bo understood immediately after hearing this. There were many martial artists in Pinglan City, and this little girl was probably also from the martial arts world.
The old man drove away and An Jiu continued forward.
She slowly walked to a place not far from the charity cemetery. The cemetery was quiet, with no light at all. The night wind blew through the surrounding mountains and forests, making a whimpering sound. On the dead tree outside the yard, a few crows squatted quietly on the branches, dozing with their necks tucked in.
An Jiu guessed that there were probably many people hiding in the yard at the moment, but they didn't show up in order to wait and see.
An Jiu did not disturb them. He looked around and saw a dense bush opposite the charity cemetery, and quietly went in.
When they start fighting, she will take advantage of the chaos to break into the battlefield and be kidnapped by the Gu Master. The plan is perfect.
An Jiu had a good plan, but what she didn't expect was that her action of hiding in the bushes had already been seen by a pair of eyes in the dark.
That man was none other than Wu Sheng, the Gu Master who planned the "Zombie" incident. Every night when he was manipulating the zombies, Wu Sheng would hide in the woods, which was close to the charity cemetery and not so easy to be discovered.
That night, when he just arrived here, he found that his treasured land had been occupied by someone else in advance. Wu Sheng immediately became alert, thinking that the man had discovered his trace and came to search in the woods.
Wu Sheng did not dare to act rashly and released a poisonous insect first.
It was easy to hide at night, let alone a small insect? The insect quickly crawled towards the figure behind the bushes. After a moment, Wu Sheng sensed the feedback from the insect.
He was a little surprised. That person was tricked so quickly? Wasn't he here to find him?
On the other side, An Jiu was sitting on the ground leaning against a tree trunk, but she suddenly felt a slight pain in her calf, as if she was bitten by a mosquito. She raised her hand and patted it gently, muttering softly: "It's only April, why are there mosquitoes..."
Before he could finish his words, his body suddenly went weak and his vision started to become blurry.
She was startled and instantly realized that something was wrong.
It wasn't a mosquito that bit her just now, maybe it was a poisonous insect! She wouldn't have met the poison master earlier than the people from Huashan Sect!
Mom, if I had known, I wouldn't have come! Why is she so unlucky!!!
An Jiu was still very conscious, but her limbs were very weak. Her five senses were still sensitive and she could hear the rustling sound of the grass behind her being gently stepped on.
Someone was coming towards her.
A dark figure squatted in front of her, a hand reached out to her, and pinched her chin with icy cold fingers.
"Who sent you?" the hoarse voice asked in a low voice.
An Jiu heard his own mouth say slowly: "No... no one, I can do it myself..."
???
Ancient truth serum? The martial arts world is too unscientific!!!
"Who are you?" the man asked again.
"I am... An Jiu."
The figure felt her pulse and asked in surprise, "An ordinary person? Is it a coincidence that you are here?"
"No, no... I'm here to attack..." Having said this, An Jiu suddenly stopped talking. The man didn't know why, but An Jiu heard the system voice ringing in his mind.
[Please note that the host is not allowed to disclose any information related to the system! ]
Seeing that he couldn't get any answers from his question, the man changed the question: "Do you know who I am?"
"I know...you are Wu Sheng..."
Her whole body suddenly felt cold, and the fingers that were pinching An Jiu's chin suddenly exerted force, causing her jaw to feel a sudden pain.
The figure in the dark lowered his tone by several degrees and asked coldly, "How do you know me?"
"The Huashan Sect knows about this... They are lying in ambush at Yizhuang... preparing to capture you..."
In his mind, An Jiu looked like he wanted to cry but had no tears.
She only knew that Wu Sheng would come tonight, but she didn't know he would come from this direction! The book didn't say where he was hiding, so who knew he would run into him head-on!
Now all the plans have gone down the drain. Wu Sheng knows that the Huashan Sect wants to capture him, so he will definitely not be so foolish as to fall into their trap.
My life is over!
I just hope that big boss Pei Ji can be more powerful and rescue her as soon as possible.
If you have already completed a copy, it should be easier to do it again, right?
Sure enough, after hearing her say that, Wu Sheng sneered and whispered two words: "Huashan..."
Then he raised his hand and touched her neck. An Jiu's eyes suddenly went dark and she completely lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, An Jiu found himself lying on the ground. There was a cave around him with stone walls on all sides. It was still dark outside the cave entrance, with heavy shadows of trees. From time to time, one or two long bird calls could be heard in the silent forest.
Where is this deep mountain forest? Can Pei Ji still find her?
An Jiu was silent for a while. She still had no strength in her body, but the ground was cold after lying for a long time. She had to struggle for a long time to get up from the ground, leaning against the stone wall to look into the cave.
During the whole process, she found that her sense of touch seemed to become extremely sharp. For example, when she was supporting herself with her palm on the ground, she touched a small grain of sand, which normally she would not feel at all, but she felt pain.
When my fingertips brushed against the uneven edges of the mountain wall, I felt a slight stinging pain.
It was as if her perception was magnified several times in an instant, and she suddenly became the Princess and the Pea, with her skin and belly so delicate that she could not tolerate any friction or pressure.
No wonder he didn't tie her up but just threw her on the ground.
With such a body, An Jiu couldn't escape at all. A branch scratching her or a stone hitting her, any bump or bump that would be harmless to an ordinary person, would be unbearable torture for her.
The cave was not big. An Jiu was now near the cave entrance. There was a fire burning inside the cave. A man in black was sitting by the fire. He was the Gu Master Wu Sheng.
Seeing her wake up, the man in black stood up and walked in front of her, looking down at her and said, "You are an ordinary person. Since you know that I am Wu Sheng, why aren't you afraid?"
An Jiu looked up at him. Wu Sheng did not cover his face. With the light of the fire in the cave, she could see his face clearly.
This is a middle-aged man with a weathered and gloomy appearance, who seems to be in his forties. His skin is extremely pale and his facial lines are sharp. It is not difficult to tell that he must have been a handsome man when he was young, but his eyes are pitch black and he looks extremely depressed when he looks at people.
An Jiu tried hard to control the trembling of his fingertips. After the strange pain subsided, what remained was a series of slight numbness and itchiness, as if he were being gnawed by insects and ants.
She took a breath and said, "I heard that you Gu Masters can make love Gu. I want a love Gu to make someone like me."
The author has something to say:
Pei Pei: I want to be a hero and save the beauty
Anjiu: I'm trying my best to cooperate with you in the performance~~~ Wow! My performance is so bad!
