"Woman?" He repeated these two words again, hoping to hear her denial, but she didn't. Because at the moment when he lost his soul, she had turned around and quietly disappeared in front of his eyes.
She subconsciously took in a breath of cold air. If she didn't run away now, when would she wait? At a lightning speed, she ran under the twisting eaves of the corridor again...
Following the path Pan Zhuqing led at night, Gong Yueyue stumbled open one door after another, but the footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer. She seemed to feel a big hand opening up to her behind her, as if she was just
It only takes two or three steps to pull out her hair and her scalp.
Of course, this was just a fantasy caused by her rush of adrenaline. In fact, when she stepped into the secret room door, Zhao Changyuan was still more than ten steps away from her, separated by two doors. He had eaten and drank enough.
Gong Yueyue's fighting prowess was overwhelming. On the contrary, Zhao Changyuan, who had struggled all day and night and only ate one bun and was seriously injured, was obviously at a disadvantage. It can be seen that no matter how long his legs are, if he is not fed well, he may not be able to survive.
Outrun Tu Fei Yuan...
When his face was enlarged enough to see clearly his facial features that looked a bit ferocious due to anger, she decisively twisted the stone lion mechanism in the corner of the secret room and closed the heavy stone door in time. The two people's eyes were suddenly separated.
, after about a few minutes of silence, a loud banging on the stone door accompanied by a roar hurt her ears: "Open the door! Open the door!"
"Gong Yueyue, I know you are inside. You'd better come out on your own, otherwise I will demolish this house. You know I can do what I say!"
"Open the door! Come out! Are you deaf? Come out!"
Fortunately, this door was made of stone. If it had been replaced by an ordinary wooden door, it might not have been able to withstand his feet and fall into pieces. In fact, in the few minutes after Gong Yueyue closed the stone door, Zhao Changyuan went out to look for someone to demolish the house.
Sharp weapon. In the end, Huangtian paid off and as expected, a craftsman outside the house snatched a hammer for pounding stones...
Gong Yueyue heard him make such a big move, but couldn't see the actual situation, and was afraid that he would hurt herself again, so she had to stick to the stone door and threaten him: "Stop! If you dare to mess around again, I will completely remove myself from this world."
Disappear so that you can never find me!"
But this threat did not seem to have any effect on Zhao Changyuan, who was mad. His attack on Shimen became more and more violent, with the momentum of burning together and perishing together.
She was anxious and didn't know how to calm down his arrogant temper, so she simply stamped her foot and said something harsh: "Do you know why I was unconscious before? I almost went back, but just a little bit. You
If I do it again, I still have a chance to regret it!"
After the muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, there was deathly silence inside and outside the door.
Gong Yueyue stood there and waited for a long time, then she leaned against the door and listened carefully to what was going on outside, but all she could hear was her own increasingly intense and restless heartbeat.
"Could it be that... he really left..." She wondered uneasily in her heart. It had come to this point. If he ran away in a fit of anger, wouldn't it mean that all his previous efforts had been wasted? But if she didn't speak harshly, his volcano
Who can stand an explosive temper?
After listening and waiting for a while, she walked quietly to the mechanism, intending to reach out and open the door. But just when her fingertips touched the top of the stone lion's head, Zhao Changyuan's somewhat dull voice sounded outside the door.
"Actually, when you were in a coma, I guessed that this was probably the reason. You can never understand how scared and desperate I was at that time."
Gong Yueyue silently walked to the door and slowly sat down against the stone door. What she didn't know was that Zhao Changyuan outside the door was also sitting on the floor against the stone door at this time. The two of them were like this, back to back, far apart.
So close, only a few centimeters apart, but so far away, separated by the cold and hard stone slabs, not even a trace of body heat can penetrate between them.
He always spoke calmly, and she listened quietly. He replayed the hardships and pains of the past six months, and she silently experienced his journey of overcoming obstacles step by step...
"I almost brought all the doctors in the city to treat you. It was just a little bit worse, and I even poisoned our child with my own hands... I don't care if you blame me or not, and I don't care if I did the right thing at the time.
It's wrong, I just know that I can't lose you."
Gong Yueyue had already heard her sixth aunt tell her about this matter, but now that she heard Zhao Changyuan recall it in person, she still felt as if her heart had been cut open, twitching and painful.
"I was so desperate, helpless and desperate. In the end, I only had one belief left, that is, I will be where you are, no matter life or death."
"So, when Pan Zhuqing set up a trap to lure me to the desert, I didn't think about the consequences for a moment, because if there was a chance of survival, we would survive together. Otherwise, we would have to die together."
When Gong Yueyue heard this, she bit her sleeve and cursed secretly: "It is indeed him...it is indeed this bastard..."
Zhao Changyuan did not hear her voice and continued to speak calmly: "I was caught by the Ming Cult in the main altar. I never thought I would survive. Until I met a woman. The one you saw yesterday.
woman."
"What you said is actually correct. She is indeed my reason. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have stayed in the desert. But at the same time, if it weren't for her, I would have completely turned into a murderer without blinking an eye.
monster, or is already dead."
At this point, Gong Yueyue, who had been pretending to be jealous, really felt jealous in her heart. "She is so important, why are you coming back?"
She didn't say this loudly, but Zhao Changyuan still heard it.
He smiled bitterly, pinched his eyebrows, and revealed the mystery to her: "I call her Aunt Qing. She is... my father's former lover. She is also... also my future mistress..."
"Pfft! Cough cough...cough cough..." What kind of logic is this? Gong Yueyue simply suspected that her ears were hallucinating. Wasn't Cao Rui single all the time? Why did the current incumbent suddenly appear? And it was Zhao Xiong's.
EX? And then Zhao Xiong’s son stayed in the desert for half a year for his father’s ex-girlfriend? Should Zhao Xiong post a status on Weibo - My ex is the best? Are the ancients already so unrestrained?
But Zhao Changyuan was not a gossip, and he had no interest in talking to her about the relationship disputes of the previous generation. Instead, he told her the main line of the story in a serious manner: "Do you still remember that the day you woke up, I came back to assassinate you?"
You? That’s because I have been poisoned by a very special kind of poison from the Ming Cult. It can make people lose their character, disown all their relatives, and become a killing tool for the poisoner."
"The first order I received was to kill my wife. This was a bad idea that the leader's daughter at the time, a woman named Ang Yue, came up with in order to test whether my poison was effective."
"But she didn't expect that within an hour after I was poisoned, Aunt Qing had secretly started to help me control the poison in my body. So when I faced you, I couldn't do anything..."
"Aunt Qing is the daughter of the former leader of the Ming Cult. She has strong martial arts skills and deep internal strength. Over the past six months, she has been helping me detoxify. But the premise is that I must help her take back control of the Ming Cult from her husband."
"What? She still has a husband?" Gong Yueyue roared secretly in her heart: "The former was the rich and handsome Zhao Xiong, and the current one is the wealthy civil servant Cao Rui. This is not enough, she actually has a husband who is a domineering president! There is actually another
Zhao Changyuan, the hot-blooded second-generation rich man in trouble, helps her fight for the family property! What does it mean to be a winner in life? What is the style of a queen? Look here, look here, look here!"
"You don't know how much I want to go back to you and my children every day and every night. But my toxicity has not been resolved. Although I can stay awake most of the time, I will go crazy when I get angry... The reason why Yin Liang is attracted by me
I was injured because that witch An Yue took advantage of my unpreparedness and dared to assassinate you on the street. I lost my mind at that time..."
Hearing this, Gong Yueyue finally couldn't help it, and asked with a confused expression: "Wait a minute, what's going on with this little Yueyue? Why do you always have trouble with me? I provoked her.
ah?"
"She...she has evil thoughts about me." At this point, before Gong Yueyue could react, he immediately explained loudly: "Madam! I never gave her a good face! Later, I didn't wait for Gong Yueyue to react.
She asked her father to force me to marry her, and I almost strangled her to death! You have to believe me! I am innocent!"
"Silly... You are the whitest. No wonder people call you Big White Goose." She bit her lip and cursed softly, but the smile on her face could not be removed.
"The poison in my body required Mingjiao's special antidote and profound Mingjiao internal skills. It took half a year to completely remove it step by step. I took advantage of this half-year to secretly collect information about her husband's deviant behavior for Aunt Qing.
Evidence, win over the believers and cut off dissidents. Just a few days ago, a civil war broke out in the Ming Cult in the desert. The cause was that Aunt Qing's husband colluded with the Liao army and planned to lead the followers to attack the Central Plains people in Yumen Pass. "
Having said this, Zhao Changyuan closed his eyes and sighed deeply. He did not want to recall this cruel scene at all. This battle was different from any of his previous battles. Originally living together, in
Friends who were joking together, because of different positions and beliefs, fought to the death... The person who survived cried and buried the enemies, friends, and even brothers he had killed... How would he describe this to his wife?
process?
In the end, he could only hold back his intense emotions and summed it up in an understatement: "The result of this fight to the death... was that we won. Aunt Qing drove her husband out of the Mingjiao and made herself king. And I was on the way to pursue him.
, was seriously injured.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a muffled sound from the stone door behind him. When he turned his head, he was no longer facing the cold stone wall, but the moving and affectionate face of his wife. (To be continued)
