Chapter 167: Mother Gu Backfires
Shen Tingyu reacted and realized that he was still trying to stop him, but he was being more subtle, as if he was giving a reminder.
So she withdrew her hand and her face darkened.
"You don't want me to kill the Queen Mother."
He was harmed to this point by the Queen Mother using the Soul-Eating Gu, and even because of his efforts to save him, he was repeatedly murdered by the Queen Mother.
Why save her?
Xin Hongying shook her head and said firmly, "I just don't want you to dirty your hands."
"Your hands are not fit to hold a sword right now."
Shen Tingyu looked at Xin Hongying suspiciously.
An Chi on the side also nodded in agreement, showing his loyalty.
"Master, let me come. I am willing to be your knife, your sword."
Shen Tingyu slowly retracted his gaze: "My hands haven't hurt yet. I can't even lift the sword. I'm not that weak."
"I want to avenge Da Que'er myself."
After saying this, she slowly walked towards the Queen Mother.
She gave more than a quarter of an hour, and now she wanted to get rid of this biggest threat to the Queen Mother.
If she were alive, she would never let the tyrant go, and she would not let herself go either.
She couldn't tolerate such a time bomb and continue to live.
You never know when, if you're not careful, you might be killed by her and be finished.
Although she couldn't understand why the Queen Mother was so full of malice towards her that she even wanted to drag her to death.
Thinking of the Queen Mother's ferocious expression as she pinched her shoulders and tried to push her down.
Shen Tingyu is still in shock.
Bai Feng, who was kneeling on the ground, heard her words and his expression changed, although there was still a hint of stubborn madness.
Miss Yi Han was giving acupuncture, trying her best to wake the empress dowager.
Bai Feng stood up and blocked Shen Tingyu's way.
The eunuch's clothes were stained red by the Queen Mother's blood, and coupled with his stubborn and somewhat crazy eyes, he looked a little scary.
"Goddess, I haven't got the answer yet. You can't kill her yet."
The two stood face to face, Shen Tingyu felt unfamiliar with Bai Feng like this.
"I've already given you a chance."
Shen Tingyu was puzzled: "Why are you so obsessed with an answer? Have you never thought that she would lie to you in order to survive?"
Bai Feng lowered his eyes. He naturally knew it, and his voice was a little hoarse.
"But...even if it's fake, I want to know how she would deceive us."
"This is our mother. There must be a reason for all the suffering we've endured in the past. I must know."
Shen Tingyu frowned and said slowly.
"If you knew that the Queen Mother had her own reasons for leaving you, would you still stop me from killing her?"
Bai Feng remained silent for a long while before saying, "I don't know either."
"But she won't live more than three days."
Miss Yi Han, who was giving acupuncture to the empress dowager, had her eyelashes trembling slightly, and then continued with the acupuncture as if nothing had happened.
She is also a doctor, so she naturally understands the empress dowager's current health condition.
Shen Tingyu frowned slightly, and his questioning eyes pierced Bai Feng.
"Why are you so sure?"
Bai Feng said slowly, "Because the Soul Devouring Gu has been cured, the mother Gu has been attacked back, devouring her flesh and blood, causing her body to gradually weaken and age."
"Given her current condition, she won't be able to leave in less than three days."
"She will be tortured to death by the Mother Gu. This kind of death is extremely painful, so she will..."
"So that's why she's dragging me to die with her, right?"
Shen Tingyu continued to say what he had not finished, and she was half-believing and half-doubting.
Because maybe Bai Feng was deceiving himself, he didn't want to kill his mother.
Bai Feng knew that Shen Tingyu didn't quite believe it, and he himself didn't quite believe it either.
Because he is telling lies!
But there is one thing he is sure of, the soul-devouring insect has been removed, and her body will definitely be attacked by the mother insect, and the attack will be extremely severe.
So he took the Queen Mother's hand and pulled up the sleeve at her wrist.
"If you don't believe me, look."
Beneath the luxurious clothes were arms as thin as sticks, and even the soft flesh on the fingers had disappeared.
The delicate hands with red nails, the tight skin became loose and shrunken, leaving only a piece of white, wrinkled skin.
It looks like a pair of hands of an elderly person.
The doubt in Shen Tingyu's heart was reduced by half.
At this time, Miss Yihan continued to stimulate the acupoints of the empress dowager's body with silver needles, and said slowly.
"She's waking up."
Everyone's eyes fell on the Queen Mother lying on the ground.
The Queen Mother's eyelids trembled slightly, but after a moment, she did not open her eyes.
She didn't know it yet, but everyone knew clearly that she was awake and still lying on the ground pretending to be asleep.
Shen Tingyu suddenly laughed.
Instead of raising the sword in his hand, he deliberately let it hang on the ground, making a harsh metallic sound to scare the Queen Mother.
prick--!
The sharp sword blade was placed on her neck, and the moment it was placed on her neck, it left a bright red blood mark, but no blood flowed out of the blood mark.
Shen Tingyu curled his lips: “I know you are awake.”
The cold sword stung her skin. She didn't expect that even if she fainted, she couldn't escape what happened today. She was already a fish on the chopping board and could not survive.
The Queen Mother could no longer pretend.
He cursed Bai Feng secretly in his heart. Although his witchcraft was good, he was really useless. He couldn't even protect himself!
What a useless piece of trash!
She had placed all her hopes on him.
The Queen Mother suddenly opened her eyes, her narrow and long phoenix pupils facing the sun's dim light, she shivered and half-closed her eyes, and took a short while to adjust.
Her pride made her unwilling to lie on the ground like a puddle of mud, even if a long sword was pressed against her neck.
She also used her elbows to support herself, slowly lifting herself up from the ground, and tried her best to straighten her back. Her skinny and weak body was like a hemp rope wearing clothes and shaking in the wind.
"What do you want?"
"Are you going to kill me? Come on, do it! What are you waiting for?"
"I was defeated today. If there is a next time, I will make you feel the same way."
The traces of blood on the wound on Shen Tingyu's palm flowed along the handle of the long sword, on the semi-vertical cold blade, and onto the empress dowager's neck.
Xin Hongying's face looked a little ugly, and she took a step forward with heartache.
He wished he could turn into a bandage, wrap around her wound with kisses to stop the bleeding.
Feeling the warm blood on her neck, the Queen Mother giggled, and her laughter sounded like that of a withered old woman.
Frightened by her own strange voice, the Queen Mother's face changed and her laughter stopped abruptly.
It was as if someone suddenly grabbed my neck and the unpleasant laughter was suppressed in my throat, making me feel extremely uncomfortable.
Shen Tingyu said slowly: “There will be no next time for you.”
Her eyes turned to Bai Feng.
"Ask!"
Bai Feng's eyebrows were clear and handsome, and he asked seriously, "I just want to know what happened back then."
"tell me."
The Queen Mother snorted in her heart, her eyes extremely indifferent.
