incomprehensible

Ye Xuehuan's heart sank slightly, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether Hongling was bluffing or if he was really holding back, so the arm around Lan Qi couldn't help but tightened a bit.

Looking at his movements, Hong Ling slowly opened the corners of her mouth, and the words she spit out were like sinister curses, hoarse and vicious, "Yes... hold him tighter, or when he dies, you won't even be able to hold the corpse gone."

Lan Qi turned to look at her, and said lightly: "If you really have the means, why stay until now."

"……Is it?"

Hong Ling stretched out the tip of her bright red tongue and licked her chapped lips. This should be an incomparably enchanting action, but at this moment it looked particularly shocking, with a bloody smell, "You are too arrogant to come here I pick things out of my body. I don’t know what my feather is best at? Look at the shoulders yourself.”

The few people who stood close all looked at Lan Qi's shoulder. Under the flickering firelight, they could only see a small dark green spot the size of a grain of rice on his left shoulder. The color was as deep as emerald, but it was dull. His black clothes were so inconspicuous that he couldn't tell what it was at all, only Lan Qi saw the true face of the thing clearly.

——It was an extremely small spider. The eight spider legs were as thin as hair, but they were several times longer than its body. He didn't notice it himself, and he didn't know when he climbed up.

"Is there no feeling at all?" Hongling laughed wildly, "This is specially for those of you who have sensitive senses, and you won't know it even if you bite it down. Has it shrunk to a very small size now? Is it? That means... the toxins are all in your body!"

Ye Xuehuan's pupils shrank suddenly, ignoring that he was still in front of people, he tore off Lan Qi's skirt, and sure enough, he saw a black blood spot on his shoulder, and the surrounding blood vessels were all infected into lead gray, visible to the naked eye. The speed spread, as if a fine spider web had been spread on his shoulders, eroding towards the heart vein unstoppably.

Both Chu Changyue and Tong Xuan gasped, Ye Xuehuan was even colder, his heart almost stopped beating, he turned his head and shouted to Tong Xuan: "Where is Wen Luo! Go call him!"

He used a lot of explosives in this siege, fearing that there would be casualties, so he brought Wen Luo, who should be at Wei Yan's side at this time.

Tong Xuan turned around and ran, Hong Ling raised her head behind and laughed loudly: "The poison of the biphosphorus spider dissolves when it enters the blood, it spreads very fast, and there is no medicine to cure it! It takes at most half a cup of tea, the poison will attack the heart, and the gods will save it." not coming back!"

Ye Xuehuan's eyes were red, and he hugged Lan Qi tightly in his arms, his arms trembling slightly; on the contrary, Lan Qi himself was the calmest, with his forehead resting on his shoulder, he whispered, "I'm fine."

These words were not convincing in the face of the toxin spreading from his shoulders. Ye Xuehuan only thought that he had resigned to his fate, and his heart was twisted even more. With an extremely gentle smile, she lightly kissed Lan Qi on the cheek, and murmured: "Don't be afraid... If anything happens to you, I will let the whole Yi Kingdom be buried with you."

The phoenix's eyes turned around, looking at Hongling with cold and dark eyes, like a gaze falling from the end of hell to the world, with a world-destructive stare and madness.

Hongling knew that there was no way to escape, so she was not afraid at all, and said word by word, gritting her teeth: "Lan Qi, I admit that I underestimated you and fell into your hands. It's trash, it's not enough to succeed, it's more than ruined, let you pick up the ready-made cheap, and you have lost so many thorns in my skylark. But so what? As long as you die, even if you lose the arm of your third prince, I, Skylark, will die in the future. If you want to kill him, there are plenty of opportunities!"

"You still want to destroy my country? You can't even clean your house. Even if you are the third prince of Chongyang, handsome in the northwest, but with Liu's family inside, would you dare to lead troops from the southwest? It's ridiculous!"

Such outrageous words, Xuan Feng's guards naturally couldn't tolerate her, kicked her in the knee hard, pressed the back of her head firmly, forcing her to kneel and bow her head.Hongling didn't struggle, but kept laughing and said, "I'm not as brainy as you are hiding. If I fall into the hands, I will find a chance to kill myself. If you have the ability, kill me, or just use torture to extract a confession. Let's see, do you, the Third Prince, dare to believe my confession?!"

"Don't blame me for not reminding me that the poisonous spider venom is stubborn and hard to get rid of. After death, it will become the source of the poison when it is buried in the ground. The water and soil in a radius of a hundred miles will be polluted. People and animals will not live, and no grass will grow. Even if it is burned to ashes, it will still be a cloud of poisonous smoke! , you better think about how to deal with the corpse of this little bastard!"

Lan Qi sighed. After being discussed for a long time about his affairs, no matter how calm he was, he really couldn't listen anymore.Feeling that Ye Xuehuan's body was tense and on the verge of rage, he quickly hugged his waist and whispered in his ear: "It's really fine, I'm not afraid of poison. Trust me."

Ye Xuehuan was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her head and looked into his dark eyes, seeing his firm and calm gaze, she felt a little calmer.After pondering for a moment, he stretched out his hand and peeled off Lan Qi's front, and saw that the toxin had spread to his heart, and the snow-white left chest was covered with black blood veins, like a piece of broken porcelain full of cracks, and he should have died of the poison long ago; however Not only did the toxins not continue to spread, but they gradually faded away, as if they were absorbed in the heart, and disappeared without a trace in a moment, faster than before, leaving only a mosquito on the shoulder The bite-like swelling was extremely weird.

Ye Xuehuan frowned, not knowing whether to be happy or surprised.Chu Changyue stared at Lan Qi's chest with his mouth wide open, not even caring about Do Not Evil. He was speechless for a while.When Wen Luo rushed over with Tong Xuan, he happened to catch this scene in his eyes, and a strange look flashed across his face.

When Ye Xuehuan saw Wen Luo, she grabbed Lan Qi's wrist and was about to send him in front of him; but Lan Qi suddenly broke away from his embrace, stepped back, covered her mouth and retched, and her figure was shaking.Ye Xuehuan frowned even tighter, and stepped forward to support him from behind; Lan Qi stretched out the other hand and pushed gently on his chest to prevent him from getting too close, rolled violently in his throat a few times, and vomited A mouthful of blood came.He gathered the mouthful of blood in his sleeve, but a little still leaked from between his fingers, the color was as black as ink, with a pungent stench, and it was so thick that it was almost not liquid.

"Lan'er...?"

Seeing that he had spit out the poisonous blood, Ye Xuehuan believed that he was really not afraid of poison, but her heart tightened even more, she wrapped one hand around his waist, and pulled the other hand over his sleeve to his lips.Lan Qi stopped him, coughed a few times, and spit out some blood foam one after another, but it was blood of normal color.

"...I'm fine."

Lan Qi rubbed his cheek against his neck, leaned on him to calm down for a moment, wiped off the blood stains on his lips with his sleeves, took off the blood-stained coat, and carefully wiped the blood between his fingers. As he slowly rolled his coat into a ball, he said softly: "There is no poison in this world that can't be cleaned. What about the green phosphorus spider, after all, it can't escape the list of five poisons. Soak it thoroughly with realgar wine Burn it again, I guarantee that no trace will be left."

His voice was weak, mixed with some uneven panting; but now the whole place is silent, only the sound of burning torches, even if it is so light that it is about to drift away, it seems like Huang Zhong Dalu, a word. One sentence made my heart tremble.

Hongling's eyes widened, her expression seemed to be seeing some kind of ghost or beast, the arrogance just now was completely extinguished, and she screamed hysterically in panic, her voice changed: "Impossible! How could you survive?" ! Is it a beauty with a dry bone...? No, a beauty with a dry bone does not have such effects! How can there be such a body in this world that is invulnerable to all poisons!"

"Lan Qi...what the hell are you?!"

Lan Qi didn't answer, he stood up straight, handed the robe to Tong Xuan, bent down to pick up the handkerchief that he had wiped his hands before, walked unsteadily in front of Hong Ling, and signaled the guards to squeeze her mouth open , stuffed the veil into it bit by bit, tightly, even stretched out his finger and poked the throat a few times, and said lightly: "You don't care what I am. Lost dog, stop barking a few words."

From the beginning to the end, his tone of voice remained unchanged, his face was expressionless, and dark flames danced in his dark pupils. He was so weak that he seemed to fall to the ground at any time, but he also exuded a fierce aura, as if Seeing a Yin Sha Shura crawling out from the other side of hell, everyone present shuddered.

Normally, he was seen following Ye Xuehuan, with a cute and docile appearance, but no one would have thought that he would be so ruthless to such an extent.

Chu Changyue and Tong Xuan looked at each other, and they both saw each other's fear.The calmer and calmer the person, the less likely to get angry, but once the bottom line of this kind of person is really touched, it is absolutely impossible to let it go.In this aspect, Lan Qi actually has a bit of Ye Xuehuan's demeanor, his emotions are invisible, the angrier he is, the calmer he becomes, and the calmer he becomes, the more ruthless he is; and he is by no means a kind-hearted person with a soft heart , otherwise it would be impossible to stand out from the lark's training.

Seeing his attitude towards Shang Hongling, the merciless choice of words and sentences, I am afraid that if it is not because of his hidden identity, there will be no blood on his hands, and he would like to unload her into seventeen or eight dollars.

Regardless of whether he was willing or not, he was the top-notch golden eye, with an unoffensive pride; Hongling ridiculed him several times, humiliating so many hidden ones to death one by one, whether it was a thing that hurt his own kind, or a rabbit died and a fox was sad, After all, he cannot tolerate it.

——What's more, this woman has already threatened the bottom line that he can't touch.

"The skylark has lost its eyes, and you are left with a group of whores and dogs. What can we do?" He looked down at Hongling, his tone was cold, but his voice was trembling slightly, "There is a blind man in Yi Guokong. Skylark, what can it be like? I don’t know who is more ridiculous. If your people can get within thirty steps of His Highness, I will lose.”

Hong Ling couldn't speak, and trembled all over, not knowing whether it was from anger or fright.Ye Xuehuan saw that Lan Qi was not in the right state, and didn't want to entangle her anymore, so she ordered the guards to detain Hong Ling pending trial.

A siege was a complete victory, but no one felt the joy of victory. On the contrary, an inexplicable uneasiness spread in everyone's heart.

Ye Xuehuan knew it was not the time to speak, so he took off his robe to wrap Lan Qi around, and wrapped him in his arms.Lan Qi's face became paler, eyes half-closed wearily, and leaned on his shoulder, as if he hesitated to speak.

Ye Xuehuan said in a low voice: "If you have something to say, go back and talk. You rest first, and I will hold you, okay?"

Lan Qi nodded weakly, then shrank back into his arms.Ye Xuehuan ordered Chu Changyue and Wei Yan to stay behind and left in a hurry with Wen Luo and Tong Xuan.

Chu Changyue looked at his anxious back, and he didn't know what it was like; today's hunt did not cost a single soldier, and it was all thanks to Lan Qi, but he himself didn't know what the situation was now, but he knew it must be done. not optimistic.

After arresting Hongling and arresting Zhao Ying, the next step is to settle the ledger. The entire Southwest will usher in a bloodbath, and most of the official circles will be cleaned up.If something happened to Lan Qi at this time, Chu Changyue couldn't even imagine how Ye Xuehuan would go crazy.

After this time, he didn't know how to treat Lan Qi and how to treat the relationship between Ye Xuehuan and Lan Qi.He didn't want to use those clichés to persuade Ye Xuehuan to turn around, it would only backfire and annoy him; but if it really made him go to the point where he couldn't turn back, so what?

…………

Although Lan Qi repeatedly assured that he was fine, it was only in terms of the result, and it did not mean that the process was safe and smooth.Ye Xuehuan didn't want to get to the bottom of why he had such a special physique that he could detoxify on his own, and the Biphosphorus spider, who was touted by Hong Ling as the most poisonous in the world, couldn't do anything to him; Why is he vague, only emphasizing that there is nothing to do, without giving a specific explanation.

Qingdian walked slowly on the narrow street. Originally, if he ran at full speed, it would only take a stick of incense to return to the Wuzhou mansion; Can sacrifice speed and try to keep it as smooth as possible.

Judging from the appearance, at most, Lan Qi just vomited a mouthful of reverse blood and expelled the biphosphorus spider venom from his body; but his face was as pale as if he had drained all the blood in his body, his forehead was covered with fine cold sweat, Clutching his heart, his whole body twitched and convulsed in pain, his lower lip was bitten bloody by himself, he took small mouthfuls of air, trying to adjust his breathing, but it sounded like a low sob, fragile and helpless help.

Ye Xuehuan pressed his head into the hollow of his neck, and kept dropping kisses on the top of his hair, trying to comfort him; Lan Qi held his forearm with the other hand, but he never really squeezed it hard, just Take all the pain out on yourself.

Ye Xuehuan's heart was in a mess, and it was only now that he truly understood how irrefutable truth Lan Qi said at the beginning—no matter how painful it was, it could only be his own, no matter how tightly he hugged him, he couldn't replace it He shares every bit of it.

Every ounce of Lan Qi's pain at this moment seems to be a silent accusation. This trap went smoothly than planned, but he was the only one who was plotted against; he clearly promised that he would not be harmed, but in the end he still failed to protect him. good him.That biphosphorus spider was unpredictable, and Hong Ling could have let it bite Ye Xuehuan, but it was used on Lan Qi, just to let him watch Lan Qi die in front of his eyes, which was clearly mocking and contemptuous of him.

He was extremely annoyed, and hated his own insensitivity, knowing that Hong Ling was cunning, how could he let Lan Qi go to dig things out of her body.If it wasn't for Lan Qi's life-saving means that even Hong Ling didn't know about, and if that green phosphorus spider really took Lan Qi's life, what would he do?Even if the whole Yi country is really buried with him, what's the point?

"... Lan'er." He stroked Lan Qi's blood-drenched lower lip, put his right thumb into his mouth, and pressed his finger against his jaw, "Hey, don't bite yourself."

Lan Qi's eyes were slack, his anger was like a thread, and he let him push his fingers in, but he had no strength to bite anymore, his eyelids closed, and his head limply tilted to one side.

Ye Xuehuan's mind went blank, he couldn't care about anything, and subconsciously wanted to pull the little glass bottle around his neck.Wen Luo saw him at the side, and hurriedly stopped him: "Your Highness, no!"

Ye Xuehuan turned his head when he heard the sound, and the bloodshot eyes were all over the phoenix's eyes. Wen Luo couldn't help feeling terrified, but he still tried to persuade him: "Your Highness, the effect of 'Snake Sleep' is too powerful. The physique is deficient, so don't use it indiscriminately."

Ye Xuehuan gritted his teeth and said, "Then what do you think?"

Seeing his almost crazy appearance, Wen Luo sighed secretly in his heart, but he could only answer truthfully: "Looking at Mr. Lan's current situation, it seems that he fainted because of the pain and lost his strength. It doesn't seem that his life is in danger. He said It's okay, it's better to... trust him."

Ye Xuehuan didn't say anything after hearing what he said, and gave him a hard look.But since the imperial physician said that his life was not in danger, he felt relieved and accelerated the horse.When he got back to the mansion, Lan Qi had recovered, although he was still weak, but he was conscious.

Ye Xuehuan carried him back to the residence, and carefully put him on the bed; Lan Qi seemed unwilling to lie down and rest, hooked his neck, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Your Highness..."

Ye Xuehuan hugged him and asked in a low voice: "What else is uncomfortable?"

Lan Qi shook his head, "It's all right."

Ye Xuehuan looked at his pale face, he didn't seem to be okay.After a moment of silence, I still felt that some things must be clarified, otherwise I would not be able to feel at ease anyway, so I thought about my words and asked, "What is a beauty with a dry bone?"

Lan Qi knew what he wanted to ask, shook his head and said: "The secret medicine of the lark, after taking it, you will feel no pain and feel no pain, and you will not die from serious injuries. Within a year, it will be invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire, and you will be able to act as usual even if your intestines are broken. ; However, once the effect of the medicine wears off, you will die immediately, and there is no cure for the medicine stone. I don’t have it on me, and I won’t touch that kind of thing.”

Ye Xuehuan said nothing, just looked down at him with deep and sharp eyes.Lan Qi didn't dare to look directly at those phoenix eyes, closed his eyes and leaned on his shoulder, and said softly: "...Your Highness said, allow me to hide something."

Ye Xuehuan was speechless, for a moment he forgot that there was still this problem, and was blocked by him so that he couldn't ask any more questions.

"Forget it. If you don't want to say it, I won't force it." He held Lan Qi's face and forced him to open his eyes and look at him, "Just answer me honestly, are you really okay?"

Lan Qi nodded slightly, "The venom of the biphosphorus spider is too violent, and there is always a price to pay. This heart-biting pain... It's not the first time for me, just sleep for a while."

Ye Xuehuan was noncommittal, pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Let Wen Luo take a look at it later, okay?"

The tone was soft and gentle, and he was actually asking for his consent; if he said it was not forced, he would definitely respect his wishes.Lan Qi's heart was soft and warm, but he also knew that he couldn't really feel relieved based on his own words, so he nodded and rubbed lightly on his chest.

Ye Xuehuan changed into the bedside underwear for him, washed up briefly, pulled the quilt to wrap him up, "Hey, you sleep, I'll hold you, okay?"

Lan Qi was grateful for his thoughtfulness, and felt even more guilty about the deception, and said in a muffled voice, "I'm really fine...I'm sorry."

"Since it's a means for you to save your life, you shouldn't let anyone know about it." Ye Xuehuan sighed in a low voice, "I failed to protect you and made you suffer."

Lan Qi shook his head and said: "It was my own carelessness. I knew that Yubu was good at making insects, but I didn't expect that they would actually breed something that I couldn't even notice. Fortunately, Hongling also lost her mind, and only wanted to I die, otherwise if this bug bites His Highness..."

He buried himself in Ye Xuehuan's arms, and said slowly: "...how can I be alone?"

This simple sentence made Ye Xuehuan's heart tremble slightly.

What he meant was that if something unexpected happened to Ye Xuehuan, even if he had the ability to escape, he would not be the last egg under the overturned nest.

An understatement, but a promise that life and death will never be separated.

"...Little fool."

Ye Xuehuan lowered her head, cupped his cheek with one hand, and licked his lower lip where the teeth marks were intertwined.The soft lips were swollen and hot from his own biting, slightly oozing with blood, and it tasted sweet; I wonder if it is because he does not touch murderous intent, so even the blood is extraordinarily pure, not many ordinary people should have The smell of blood was as light and sweet as his own.

After playing together for a while, Lan Qi took the initiative to stick out the tip of her tongue, and Ye Xuehuan gently grabbed it with the tip of her teeth, and sucked it in her mouth.

He knew that this was Lan Qi's favorite way of kissing on weekdays. It was long but not intense, ambiguous but not erotic. Giving him such a kiss after getting married would allow him to immerse himself in the aftertaste for a long time.At this moment, Lan Qi was weak, and Ye Xuehuan didn't dare to indulge too much. He felt that his breathing was getting short, so he let go in time, only lingering on his lips repeatedly, and whispered: "Good boy. Go to sleep."

Lan Qi raised her head and kissed his chin lightly, her body gradually went limp.Even he himself can't remember exactly when he developed this habit. In the past, if he was molested severely, he would bite Ye Xuehuan's Adam's apple; Ye Xuehuan also enjoys this kind of petty revenge occasionally , but he is a strong prince after all, even if the target is Lan Qi, he doesn't like to be touched on such a dangerous and fragile part of the neck, often before Lan Qi bites, he will actively avoid it and let him bite elsewhere , such as the clavicle or the jaw.

The number of visits has increased, and Lan Qi has also figured out several sensitive areas on his body. Although the jaw is not one of them, he will be very happy every time he is kissed; A kiss on the chin, with a hint of good night.

Ye Xuehuan was familiar with these little habits of his, smiled silently, kissed his forehead, and reached out to pat him on the back, just like every night before.

Lan Qi felt that he had really been spoiled a lot. After so many years of heart-wrenching pain, this attack was nothing compared to previous years, but it made him more aggrieved than any other time.Because there is someone she can rely on around her, and she has a place to confide in the pain that she could only bear by herself before, so she can't help but want to act like a baby.Seeing that person anxious and distressed, he seemed to have received some comfort, and even shamefully wanted to become weaker, so that he could feel more distressed about himself, and put all his eyes on himself alone.

Weakness and exhaustion will make people worry about gains and losses, and all kinds of anxiety that are suppressed on weekdays will surface.Lan Qi knew that he was never a good person, he was selfish and greedy, despicable and unscrupulous, he had a lot of shady little thoughts; he was protected, loved, and true, but he couldn't be satisfied at all, and wanted to occupy this gentle Embrace, firmly occupy for a lifetime.If one day he wants to give up this position, he might as well die in this embrace and sprinkle his own blood on him so that he will never be able to hug anyone else again.

Such dark thoughts plunged Lan Qi into a deep self-loathing, but that kind of gentleness was so alluring and beautiful that once addicted, he would never be able to quit; The gentle rhythm and gentle strength stripped his defenses away bit by bit, and often brought him into a deep sleep, and then woke up in Xu Xu's kiss.Such tenderness day after day, he can only sink willingly.

I don't know when I fell asleep, I thought I had been thinking about it for a long time, but Ye Xuehuan could tell that Lan Qi fell asleep almost as soon as he closed his eyes—or it was more difficult to say that he fell asleep when he fell asleep. Be more accurate.

He looked at that pale little face that was almost transparent, he managed to grow some rosy complexion in the past two months, and he paid back the money with interest.Although Lan Qi's life was safe, it made him realize what it means to be powerless; even now, he doesn't have the slightest joy of winning a big victory, but feels more distressed and blames himself.

Knowing that there are still various big and small matters waiting for him to deal with outside, but he doesn't have the mind to take care of them at all. He just wants to hug the little body in his arms and let him sleep peacefully.The promise to protect him was not fulfilled, at least when he was the weakest and needed him most, he would be by his side all the time, and give him some comfort that could only be regarded as a remedy after a dead sheep.

Listening to his heartbeat, feeling his body temperature, I even felt a kind of joy and fear of surviving after a catastrophe.

Chu Changyue's worries were indeed good. If Lan Qi really had something to do, he would have no sense of propriety.

Seeing that Lan Qi had completely slept soundly, he put him on the bed and let Wen Luo come in.Wen Luo's expression after the consultation was very delicate, and it was rare to show a look of doubt and distress.

Ye Xuehuan led him outside the bedroom door, and heard him reply: "Mr. Lan does not have any signs of poisoning. Although it seemed to be a pain in the heart before, there is no problem with the pulse. The only symptom now... is Lots of blood loss."

Ye Xuehuan frowned, Lan Qi's mouthful of poisonous blood couldn't be considered a "large amount", where did the blood go?

Wen Luo seemed to know what he was thinking, and replied: "Don't worry, Your Highness, there is no internal bleeding. Mr. Lan has a special constitution, which seems to be invulnerable to all harm, and the blood loss is probably a side effect of his detoxification. If an ordinary person loses blood like this, basically Unable to stay awake, but his body seems to be very used to this state of blood loss, which shows that today's situation is probably not the first time for him. His lack of energy and blood before is also likely to be due to this constitution. Now We can only nourish his Qi and blood first, and then prescribe the right medicine if there are other symptoms later.”

Ye Xuehuan remained silent, his face was uncertain, but he could only nod his head in agreement.

Wen Luo hesitated for a moment, and then persuaded in a low voice: "Your Highness, Snake Sleep is precious, even if it is you, after the three are used up, there will be no more. Please be careful, Your Highness, and don't use Snake Sleep lightly."

Ye Xuehuan squinted her phoenix eyes, looking deeply at Wen Luo's elegant and gentle face, as if trying to discern whether there was another meaning in his words.Wen Luo just lowered his head, with a respectful and sincere attitude.

After a long time, Ye Xuehuan breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice: "I see. Just take care of him, and if the situation changes, please come and tell me anytime."

Wen Luo nodded in agreement, and an imperceptible sigh flashed under his lowered eyelids.

Ye Xuehuan glanced at the sky, suddenly sneered, and walked out with his hands behind his back.

The third prince has always been vengeful, and there must be no less than one penny.
