Chapter 319 The Tree is Bleeding
Chapter 319 The Tree is Bleeding
Qingcheng was already injured before leaving Nanfan Kingdom. She traveled hard all the way, and her injuries worsened and she finally fainted on the road. She was rescued by Wanfu, the princess of Beifan Kingdom. She predicted that Chu Yanqiu was in danger and was eager to save Chu Yanqiu. She gave the protective Yuanzhu to Wanfu. Fortunately, her prediction was correct and she used the Yuanzhu to restore Chu Yanqiu's madness. When she arrived at Daju Kingdom, she was attacked by two demons in Taohuazhai, and her injuries became more serious.
Qingque told Shen Wen about Qingcheng's situation. Qingque said, "Her Yuanzhu and she are originally one. If the Yuanzhu is damaged, her body will also be damaged. Now she is so foolish that she is willing to sacrifice the Yuanzhu to save your life. You must cherish your life in the future, otherwise if you get hurt, Qingcheng will not survive. And Qingcheng's injury, I asked a doctor to check her last night. The doctor said that her injury is too serious. I am afraid... I am afraid that she will not survive this time."
As he spoke, Qingque lowered his head, looking like he felt very sorry for Qingcheng.
Shen Wen said: "I didn't expect that you two have such deep feelings for each other even though you just met."
Qingque said, "She is a simple girl. My master always told me about the bloodline of the God Ancestor in Nanfan. I didn't know much about it at that time. Until I met her, the saint of Nanfan, I finally understood what it meant to be a God's messenger chosen from the nine heavens to benefit future generations. She is the God's messenger chosen by the heavens, who has not been tainted by the ugliness of the world. She only knows how to be good to all things in the world. You won't understand even if I tell you this. In short, she is the most beautiful scenery in the world, not easy to get but the easiest to lose."
Shen Wen looked at Qingque's crazy words and said, "Qingque, don't you saints of all generations fall in love, get married and have children?"
Qingque said: "Who said we can't get married and have children? We are not nuns."
Shen Wen said: "Do you have a loved one too?"
Qingque looked miserable and said, "Yes, but he doesn't love me. But he is the only one in my heart, so I was so sad that I decided to leave him and that sad place and come to your Dajue country to complete the mission given by my master."
Shen Wen couldn't expect her to give such an answer, so he said "sorry".
Shen Wen got up from the bed and said, "I want to talk to Miss Qingcheng."
Qingque quickly stopped him and said, "Not now, you are still very weak. I told you to protect your life. If anything happens to you, Qingcheng will... die faster."
Shen Wen was pushed back into the quilt by Qingcheng and lay down. Shen Wen said, "Then do you have a way to take the Yuanzhu out of my body and return it to Miss Qingcheng?"
Qingque got anxious when she heard it. She glared and said, "How can that be? You will die immediately if the Yuanzhu is taken out. Don't you understand now? Your heart has been dug out. You were originally a dead person. Now you can talk to me alive and kicking, all because of the effect of the Yuanzhu. I'm leaving you in my hands. We have saved your life with great difficulty. Don't think about other things. Wouldn't that be a waste of everyone's hard work? Close your eyes and have a good rest now. I'll go out and get some tonic insects to make pills for you. I'll be back in a while. You must take the medicine for me. Do you hear me?"
Before leaving, Qingque did not forget to look back to see if he had closed his eyes and was sleeping. Only after seeing that he had closed his eyes did she leave the room and close the door from the outside.
When Shen Wen heard that Qingque had indeed gone far away, he quietly got down from the ground, put on his coat, and went out.
Shen Wen walked out of the door, just in time for the maid guarding the gate to leave. He left the yard and went to the small garden. On the way, a housewife who was sweeping the floor greeted him and said, "Seventeenth Master, are you looking for Lord Chu? Lord Chu is in the corridor next to the small garden, and there is a foreign girl with him. The two are talking."
Shen Wen said, "I see. Go and do your thing." The old woman then took some brooms and left.
Shen Wen quietly came to the corridor not far away, which happened to be a small garden where several flowers and trees were planted. He leaned against one of the camellia trees and looked at the two of them quietly.
Qingcheng is a pretty girl with long, thick eyebrows and watery almond eyes. She gives people a pure, kind and approachable feeling. She is a woman who is deeply attracted to people around her. With such appearance and temperament, she is not bad in dealing with people.
Qing Cheng said softly to Chu Yanqiu, "It's okay, Brother Chu. Although my Yuanzhu is in his body, it is not broken. As long as he is healthy and safe, nothing will happen to me even if I return to Nanfan Country."
She had a smile on her face as she spoke, which made people feel at ease.
Chu Yanqiu was even more grateful in his heart. At this point, he could only say, "Thank you very much. We two cannot repay you. Qingcheng, if you have any requests, just tell me. I will do my best to help you."
Qing Cheng looked at Chu Yanqiu leisurely, and she said: "Then you must promise me that you must be kind to your sweetheart and to the world."
Ok?
Chu Yanqiu couldn't answer. He didn't understand what she meant. This request was a bit too abstract.
Qingcheng probably talked too much, she touched her head and was a little shaky. Chu Yanqiu saw her and supported her and said, "I heard that you were injured. Let's find a doctor to check you out as soon as possible."
Qingcheng forced herself to say, "It's okay. It was Sister Qingque who accompanied me to see the doctor yesterday. It's probably because I didn't take the medicine on time tonight. I'll go back and take the medicine first." After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave, but she felt even more dizzy and her steps were unsteady, and she was about to fall.
Chu Yanqiu held her waist and saw that her face was pale and she was terrified. He quickly picked her up and quickly carried her to find a doctor.
Watching them gradually go away, Shen Wen gathered his coat and went back to the house to rest.
At this time, a voice came from behind and said, "What are you looking at?"
Shen Wen looked back and it turned out to be Qu Qiu Shui.
Qu Qiushui said: "I heard that you were attacked again last night. How was it? Were you seriously injured?"
Shen Wen smiled and said, "Shouldn't you be happy that I was assassinated? Honestly, do you really not hate me?"
Qu Qiushui didn't want to hear him talk about this at all. He shrugged and said, "I don't know. At least until now, I haven't had the urge to want you to die. I'll see if I have it in the future."
Shen Wen said, "Aren't you helping with the case at the Prince's Mansion? Why are you back?"
Qu Qiushui said: "I came back to get some daily necessities. You know, we are from the same era, living in this ancient time, and there are some habits of that era that we don't want to change."
Shen Wen nodded and said, "It's up to you."
Qu Qiushui said: "Who is it that has been trying to kill you? Tell me and I will help you kill him."
Shen Wen said: "This is where it gets interesting. The person who wants to kill me is from the same family as your enemy."
Qu Qiushui asked: "Immortal Gate?"
Shen Wen nodded and said, "It's still the one at the top. Have you heard of it? There is a Yuchi Immortal Ancestor in Qianfeng Mountain."
Qu Qiushui said: "Is it her? Then you are in trouble. I was imprisoned in Qianfeng Mountain, and there have been legends about this Yuchi Immortal Ancestor. It is said that she has all kinds of magical powers and is proficient in all the strengths of the immortal sects. She can be compared with the true gods. I am a materialist..."
Speaking of this, Qu Qiu Shui seemed unnatural.
After surviving in that strange immortal sect for so many years, he, a materialist, had long been confused by those bizarre spells.
Qu Qiushui said to Shen Wen seriously: "Use your high-precision weapons. It would be best if you could use a nuclear bomb to blow up the fairy mountain. I know you must have a nuclear bomb in your hand."
Shen Wen lowered his eyebrows and said expressionlessly: "No, you think too much."
When Qu Qiushui thought of the fairy mountain that was beyond the imagination of ordinary people, he became nervous. He said, "To be honest, if you encounter the old guys at the top of the fairy mountain, it's best to strike first when they are least expected."
Shen Wen nodded and said, "I understand."
Then he looked at Qu Qiushui seriously and said, "Qu Qiushui! Let me ask you, have you ever seen a person who was still alive after his heart was dug out?"
Qu Qiushui thought he had heard wrongly and asked in confusion: "What? What do you mean? Are you saying you have seen this kind of person? You are not talking about a synthetic robot, are you?"
Shen Wen said: "No, he is a normal person, not an immortal from the immortal sect."
Qu Qiushui said: "It's impossible. I have dug out so many hearts, but I have never seen a living one."
Shen Wen thought of his brutal methods of committing crimes in the past and lost the desire to talk to him any more. Shen Wen ignored him and left alone.
Qu Qiushuibo caught up with him and asked, "By the way, where are you hurt?"
Shen Wen stopped and looked at him for a moment and said, "Heart."
Qu Qiu Shui almost fell down.
Shen Wen held out his hand to him and said, "You should know a little bit about Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis, right? Do you want to feel my pulse?"
Qu Qiu Shui grabbed his hand and began to take his pulse carefully.
After checking his pulse for a while, Qu Qiushui said, "Nothing's wrong. He's alive and kicking. His pulse is stronger than that of an ordinary person."
Shen Wen withdrew his hand. This time, there was really nothing to talk about with him.
Qu Qiushui watched him leave again. He suddenly thought of something and said, "Hey! I seem to have seen two strange people in the incident you mentioned. When Xiao Quanzi was in Hongwan Mountain, he was accompanied by two strange armored warriors. Those two people seemed to have no heartbeat. Are they the two people you are talking about?"
Shen Wen also remembered the two blood talismans and turned around to ask Qu Qiu Shui to continue.
Qu Qiushui said: "I was standing very close to the two warriors at the time. I listened carefully to their heartbeats. They really had no heartbeats, I can be sure of that. And the behavior of those two people is a bit like the monsters raised in the immortal sect. They have no independent consciousness but are extremely powerful."
A lot of things went through Shen Wen's mind, and he tried hard to figure out the possible connections.
Seeing that he was in a daze, Qu Qiu Shui stopped disturbing him and ran to his room to look for something.
On the way back with the package, Qu Qiu Shui saw a woman shooting darts at a tree at the corner of the small garden.
Qu Qiu Shui didn't care and just walked past the woman.
"Ok?"
Qu Qiushui suddenly stopped, turned around to look at the woman and asked, "What are you doing?"
Qingque said: "Practice darts."
Qu Qiushui pointed at the tree hit by the dart and said, "Do you see? The tree is bleeding."
Qingque nodded and said, "Yes! If you are hit by a dart, you will bleed." Qingque told Qu Qiu Shui not to meddle in other people's business and let him, a servant, take care of his own business.
Qu Qiushui asked: "Are you a disciple of a sect that cultivates immortality?"
Qingque nodded and said, "I guess so."
Qu Qiu Shui didn't say anything else and left with the package.
