ps: The chapter name of the previous chapter is wrong, it should be "Chapter 187". Also, holy shit, automatic publishing failed?
Perhaps influenced by the absurd but seemingly factual legend he heard, Zhao Hongrun lost his appetite after taking two bites of the barbecue.
Seeing this, the cold witch stood up slowly and said calmly: "Let's go, I'll take you back to Zhengyang."
When the little witch Mi Rui heard this, she hurriedly said: "Sister, I'll come with you."
However, the cold witch looked back at her sister and said in a tone that could not be refuted: "Sister, go alone, you stay here."
Wow...so much resentment.
Zhao Hongrun seemed to be able to feel the resentment the aloof witch had towards her sister at this moment. It was that resentment that frightened Mi Rui into kneeling down on the ground, not daring to say anything.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun didn't say much, pushed open the door of the wooden house and walked out.
When he walked out of the house and took a look, he discovered that the wooden house was built next to a forest. He didn't know if it was built by hunters nearby.
At this time, the cold witch also walked out of the house and passed by Zhao Hongrun.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun talked to her with a smile but not a smile: "It's very hard..."
I have to say that he sympathized a little with this cold witch, who, with such a stupid sister who was like a pig teammate, turned a clearly successful kidnapping into a farce that made Zhao Hongrun laugh and cry.
It can be seen that this seemingly aloof witch is much smarter than her sister. She understood the implication of Zhao Hongrun's words in a moment, and sighed sadly: "She is the only close relative I have...
…”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hongrun took the opportunity to test and asked: "Where are the other relatives? Aren't you nobles of Chu State?"
"..."
Unexpectedly, the cold witch glanced at Zhao Hongrun and walked forward without saying a word.
Phew! It is indeed much harder to get words out of this sister than that stupid sister.
Zhao Hongrun curled his lips and hurried forward a little depressed.
After he followed the cold witch to the wooden house, he discovered that the two sisters had a carriage.
It was really a very ordinary carriage, with a shabby appearance. There were many wooden boards of varying degrees of old and new, and it had obviously been repaired over and over again. Even the quality of the wood of the two wheels was obviously different.
"You are driving this carriage back to Chu from Ba?" Zhao Hongrun saw the opportunity and asked again.
"..." The cold witch glanced at him. Without saying a word, she just leaned into the carriage and took out two thick cloaks, and handed one of them to Zhao Hongrun.
Does this mean you want me to sit outside?
Zhao Hongrun thought for a while, shrugged and said, "I can only ride a horse, but I can't drive a car."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the aloof witch also put on a thick cloak, holding the reins and sitting in the carriage driver's seat, but leaving half of the seat for Zhao Hongrun.
…
Zhao Hongrun frowned, got on the carriage, and sat next to the cold witch.
Is there anything I can't see in the car?
While the aloof witch slowly drove the carriage, Zhao Hongrun took the opportunity to lift some of the curtains behind him and took a look inside.
He unexpectedly discovered that there was no ulterior secret in the carriage as he imagined. It was just a small space like a woman's boudoir. There was a quilt spread out, and then, Zhao Hongrun vaguely saw a few bellybands, robes and the like.
stuff.
"Shua"
Before Zhao Hongrun could react, the cold witch pulled the partially lifted curtain from his hand and gave him a displeased look.
Well, I understand.
Zhao Hongrun nodded suddenly, crossed his arms, and shrank his head in the cold wind blowing in his face.
The carriage drove slowly on the snow.
During this period, Zhao Hongrun was surprised to find that he had no memory of the surrounding scenery. You must know that he has a super memory that can be called an absolute memory. As long as he has visited places and seen almost nothing The possibility of forgetting. But now, he has no impression of the surrounding environment, which means that he has not been here yet.
north……
Zhao Hongrun judged the direction the two of them were facing at the moment from the position of the sun. Zhao Hongrun asked abruptly: "Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo, what is the relationship between you two sisters?"
"..." After hearing this, the cold witch subconsciously turned her head and looked at Zhao Hongrun. Zhao Hongrun clearly saw the look of shock in her eyes.
But she still didn't speak.
"Don't you admit it?" Zhao Hongrun glanced at her and whispered: "You said you wanted to send me back to Zhengyang County, but the carriage is heading north now, which means that you two sisters are holding this queen hostage. , take a carriage and go south, south of Zhengyang... is Yangcheng. Combined with the fact that Xiong Tuo's surname is Mi, your two sisters are also surnamed Mi... Can I think that your two sisters are Xiong Tuo's surnames? We are close relatives, but we used to live far away in Ba. This time we traveled all the way back to Chu from Ba...is it because we heard the news about Xiong Tuo's defeat? Or is it because Ji sent his army to attack Chu?"
"..." The cold witch said nothing and stared into the distance with a calm face, as if she had not heard Zhao Hongrun's words at all.
Phew! This woman is indeed much more difficult to deal with than her sister...
Zhao Hongrun felt a little depressed.
It can be seen that this aloof witch has a very determined character, as if no matter what she encounters, she cannot lose her composure. To deal with such people, the best way is to throw out a secret that is enough to shock her and destroy her psychology in one fell swoop. Line of defense, otherwise, there is no way to get any news out of her mouth.
But the difficulty lies in the fact that Zhao Hongrun does not have a thorough understanding of the details of their sisters, and there is no way to judge whether the other party is related to Xiong Tuo, the Lord of Yangcheng.
After thinking about it, he pretended to state the facts and tried: "In fact, even if you hand me over to Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo, at this moment, he does not dare to do anything to Ji. He can only send someone to take Ji. Return it to Zhengyang County..."
While talking, Zhao Hongrun kept paying attention to the cold witch's expression, but what disappointed him was that she seemed to treat him as if he were nothing, turning a deaf ear to what he said and only focusing on driving the carriage.
Ah, you're the type who doesn't like to talk much... Well, it's more likely that you don't like talking to strangers, right?
Zhao Hongrun sighed secretly with a headache. His verbal offensive had no effect on such an inexperienced target.
It seems that we can only change our strategy...
Zhao Hongrun pondered for a long time, and finally decided to change the topic: "What green Gu is it? Is it alive now? I mean, in my body?"
Maybe she didn't expect that Zhao Hongrun would suddenly change the topic to this aspect. The cold witch turned her head to look at him slightly in surprise, and finally said calmly: "If it dies, you and I will both die."
Finally spoke...
Zhao Hongrun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this move was indeed a clever move to suit the opponent, or to pick out the topic that the other party was most concerned about at the moment.
"Well, it's easy to understand...that is to say, your life and mine are both tied to a bug at this moment?"
"Gu!" the cold witch corrected simply.
"Okay, okay, Gu. Then...is there really no way to resolve it?" Zhao Hongrun turned to look at the fair face of the cold witch, and said seductively: "I believe you are not willing to tie your life to me.
Right?"
The cold witch sighed slightly when she heard this, and said in a low voice: "I know what you want to do, but... there is no cure for the green poison."
"Is there no way at all?" Zhao Hongrun asked unwillingly. Suddenly, he noticed the slight fluctuation in the cold witch's eyes, which made him feel surprised: "There is a way to remove the green poison from my body, right?"
But what surprised Zhao Hongrun was that after listening to his words, the cold witch suddenly turned her head and looked at him coldly. Her originally calm expression was filled with a hint of anger.
With that gaze, even though Zhao Hongrun was sure that the other party would not kill him, he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.
What did I say to offend her?... Could it be?
As if he had realized something, Zhao Hongrun lowered his voice and said, "Could it be that that method will make you..."
"Death!" The aloof witch followed Zhao Hongrun's words in an indifferent tone, and said coldly: "Do you think I will tell you?"
…
Zhao Hongrun opened his mouth, but finally gave up and continued talking.
Yes, if this matter was related to her life and death, I believe that even if she had a way to resolve the green poison in Zhao Hongrun's body, she would never reveal it to him.
He shook his head and mocked: "It's really ridiculous. Two strangers who have never met each other before have to be together because of an evil thing? Hehehehe!"
The cold witch was silent for a moment, then suddenly softened her tone and said calmly: "Green Gu only makes the two people in love more loyal and will not betray each other because of certain temptations...it's not the fault."
Right! The fault is not with Qing Gu. The fault is with your stupid sister who has nothing but a face!
Zhao Hongrun groaned twice as if he was gritting his teeth, and it took a lot of effort to suppress the anger in his heart.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Hey, hey, I just thought to myself, you won’t just kick me off the carriage, right?
Zhao Hongrun was shocked.
He was about to ask when he saw the cold witch's right hand quickly reaching into the carriage and taking out a sheathed dagger from the carriage.
During this period, her eyes were always staring straight ahead.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun felt puzzled and raised his head to look ahead, only to see him squinting his eyes. Only then did he realize that there was a figure in the distance in the light snow, walking slowly towards them through the snow.
When the other party approached, Zhao Hongrun took a closer look and realized that it was the young man in white he had met in Zhengyang County before he fell into coma.
"Found it..."
The young man in white smiled faintly.
Zhao Hongrun glanced at the cold witch who looked like she was facing a formidable enemy. In order to avoid misunderstanding between the two, he quickly greeted her and said, "Hey, brother, it's okay. This woman and I are no longer hostile."
But the young man in white seemed to be a different person, looking at Zhao Hongrun with cold eyes, and suddenly took out the bag of silver that Zongwei Shen Yu had rewarded them from his arms, and threw it in front of the carriage with a clatter.
This is not a kind act.
"You..." Zhao Hongrun looked at the other party in surprise.
But he saw the young man in white holding a sword in front of him with both hands, slowly pulling out the blade, and saying coldly: "Wei, Su Wang Ji Run, Zhang is doing justice to you today...
God damned!"
…
Zhao Hongrun opened his mouth wide with a look of astonishment on his face.
