Snake Tale

The morning sun has not yet appeared.Between the sky, the earth and the four fields is a faint blue, hazy like the undifferentiated down feathers of a young bird.Luo Yi walked towards a poplar tree in the wilderness, his back was straight, his expression was normal, no one could see that he was suffering from constant pains all over his body.

There are people under the tree.Qin Wei sat with his back against the big tree, holding an ivory red flower and sucking the nectar from its root.Hearing the sound of footsteps, she turned her head and smiled sweetly at him, with a sudden bright red on her lips, as if she had just drunk human blood.

"Did you sleep well last night?" He glanced at Luo Yi's lapel where there seemed to be no bruises, and asked with a meaningful smile.

Luo Yi impatiently chatted with him in vain, and cut to the chase: "Where's the antidote?"

Qin Wei's eyes fluttered, and he asked, "What do I want?"

Luo Yi took out a box.As soon as he saw the snake totem engraved on the box, Qin Wei's eyes flashed with anticipation and joy. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and wanted to touch it, but Luo Yi withdrew it immediately.

Qin Wei sighed mildly: "If I want to untie the weak water prepared by Mrs. Zishuo, even if I am in a hurry, I will be powerless..."

He met Luo Yi's icy cold gaze, and said with a smile, "However, I can indeed lead Lord Luo to meet someone who can undo this poison..."

There was a dense sound of squatting in the ears, and in the valleys and bushes, soldiers in strong outfits that had been lurking for a long time emerged one after another, quickly outflanking them from all sides.

Luo Yi, who was in the center of the trap, remained motionless, and said calmly: "Why do you need such a battle against a seriously injured unarmed patient?"

Qin Wei laughed and said, "I was bitten by a snake once, and I was afraid of well ropes for ten years. Please forgive these timid and frightened birds."

While talking, the girl in red leading a group of soldiers slowly approached.She has a slightly sick face, but her almond eyes are shining brightly under the ecstasy of sure victory.She looked directly at Luo Yi and said with a smile, "Don't be safe, do you still remember me?"

"Oh, it's Miss Zuiyu." Luo Yi looked at the dimples on her cheeks, and smiled lightly: "Your face is swollen and stiff. I didn't recognize it for a moment."

Resentment welled up in Zui Yu's eyes. "It's all thanks to you. Please don't worry—" She sneered coldly, and emphasized her tone:

"I'll take good care of you along the way."

Gongsun Zhuoxin held the stone letter and strode into the guest room in the backyard.The door of the room was open, and Shen Yuzhu sat by the window with his knees hugged, looking intently at the afterglow of the setting sun in the sky.Gongsun Zhuoxin coughed lightly, and held up the empty stone letter.

"As you might expect," he said.

Shen Yuzhu woke up alone around Si time, and didn't notice anything strange until after noon, and immediately sent someone to send Gongsun Zhuoxin to check the real whereabouts of the stone letter—the stone letter he showed Luo Yi last night was just a fake Just a substitute.It turned out to be a lame gimmick.

Shen Yuzhu imagined Luo Yi's contemptuous mood at the moment when he discovered the fake, and couldn't help but think: "I can't trust him. And he knows it very well."

Gongsun Zhuo said in his heart: "Luo Yi may not have left the customs yet, I have ordered people to strengthen patrols at the border—"

"It's impossible for him to leave behind." Shen Yuzhu interrupted, "Xinzheng must have his accomplices, who have been lurking for a long time, just for today."

Gongsun Zhuoxin sighed, and said to himself: "There are so many variables, it's a mess!"

Shen Yuzhu stared out the window motionlessly.He should have thought that during the few days when he was trapped in Wangzhou, Luo Yi did not miss the opportunity and quickly got in touch with certain forces.He broke into Wang Zhou and rescued Shen Yuzhu at the risk of his own life. When he confessed his feelings, he was moved. While sharing the bed with him, he made people sneak into Gongsun Zhuoxin's mansion and steal the real stone letter. Leaving without saying goodbye in the early morning-are you being fooled?What does Luo Yi really want?Besides him, how many forces are involved in it?

Shen Yuzhu quickly gave up thinking.He realized that there were all kinds of angry, extreme, and even tormenting speculations in his mind, and it was not suitable for rational deduction at this moment—but he also realized that he did not reject this feeling.It was a rare experience to stop calculating and let the ups and downs of emotions be turbulent, and it was also very fulfilling for him.Without any reason, he firmly believed that he would find Luo Yi, and also firmly believed that he must have the ability to make him more angry, more extreme, and more tormented.
