Nangong Wujiu brought some washed fruits to Chu Fengyi." Feng 'er, eat something first. After you eat, tell me what poison you've been poisoned with, okay?"”
Chu Fengyi shook her head and lay on the ground with her eyes closed. Her face was pale and her lips were bloodless.
"Not hungry? Or do you not want to eat?"
She still shook her head and bit her lips with her snow-white teeth.
He sat down beside her." Then I'll use the silver needles to help you draw the poison away so that you'll feel more comfortable.”
He took out a silver needle and stabbed it into Chu Fengyi's body, trying to guide the poison in her body to the ends of her limbs and then squeeze it out of her body.
Chu Fengyi shook her head again." The poison has already entered the organs. What's the use of guiding it?”
"Excretion as much as you can. It's better than accumulating in your body.”
He pricked her finger with a needle and squeezed it hard. As expected, blood slowly flowed out, and it was black with a fishy smell.
Chu Fengyi pulled her hand back." Why did you save me? You should know that even if you do this, I won't forgive you.”
"I'm not asking for your forgiveness. I just hope that you can give me a chance to make up for my mistakes.”He grabbed her hand again and pricked her fingers one by one, squeezing out the poisonous blood.
She sneered." Mistake? What have you done wrong? You are not only a filial son, but also an obedient disciple. How could you be wrong? I was the one at fault. I shouldn't have fallen in love with you, shouldn't have married you, shouldn't have brought you into the Feng Palace, and even gave birth to a child for you. It's all my fault. How can you be wrong?”
"Feng 'er, don't say that. I had no choice. I know you hate me for lying to you, but if I had a choice, I would never do that! You know that I would rather die than hurt you!”
"You've already hurt me. " In these ten years, you've been hurting me. You've been letting me know that you're a man who would do anything to achieve your goals. You're even willing to do anything to your own son…" Chu Fengyi's face flushed red as she thought of Fearless. Tears welled up in her eyes and she became agitated," He's your son. He's only four years old. How could you…how could you bear to…cough cough!”
Chu Fengyi coughed violently as if she was digging out her heart and lungs. She was out of breath and her hair was messy.
Suddenly, she spat out a mouthful of blood and almost fainted.
Nangong Wujiu was in pain and pity. He patted her back in a fluster and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with his sleeve until she calmed down.
"I didn't, I swear to God, I really didn't!"”
Chu Fengyi panted as she looked up at him.
He continued," You and Fearless are the only ones in my life. I love you both so much that it's too late. How could I do anything to hurt you?!"”
"But Xia Zhihong said…"
"She said that I killed Fearless?"
"Yes! She has always said that. Even when I met her in Youyou Valley this time, she said the same thing. She even showed me the evidence to prove that you killed Wuji.”
Nangong Wujiu narrowed his eyes and clutched his chest with one hand. It was obvious that his wound was hurting so much that he couldn't take it. In fact, his injuries had not been completely healed. Firstly, he was in a deep mountain valley and lacked medicinal herbs. Secondly, he didn't care about his injuries that much. Even though he was awake, his wounds were still bleeding.
"What evidence did she show you?" he asked, enduring the pain.”
Chu Fengyi took out a small bottle that was already wet and poured out a few pills that were slightly burnt.""The Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill was personally concocted and refined by you. Don't tell me you've forgotten?”
Nangong Wujiu took the pills and stared at them in a daze.
Those disobedient tears fell like pearls from a broken string. Chu Fengyi choked and said,""Wuji died from this Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill. In the entire world, who else would know how to concoct this pill other than you, Nangong Wujiu? Other than you, Nangong Wujiu, who else would have it?”
He quietly looked at the pills in his palm and frowned." Feng 'er, is the poison you've been poisoned with also this Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill?"”
"That's right! Initially, I only suspected the cause of Wuji's death. However, when I confirmed that Wuji died from the poison that you personally concocted, I thought, since you poisoned your own son, why not poison me as well?”
"So you ate it yourself?"
"Yes, since I was already poisoned by the Meridian Heartbreak Powder, it wouldn't make a difference to have another Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill. Maybe I can even meet Wuji earlier!”
Nangong Wujiu nodded and looked at the pills. Suddenly, he grabbed the few pills and put them into his mouth. He swallowed them without even biting them.
Chu Fengyi was stunned." You…What are you doing?" That was poison, why did you…"
He forced a smile." I know it's poison. It's precisely because I know it's poison that I want to eat it.”
"Why? Do you want to use self-harm to force others again?”
"Feng 'er, you know that I'm not that kind of person, and I don't have the tendency to abuse myself. It's just that if I didn't do this, you wouldn't believe me at all.”As he spoke, he took out a small bottle from his bosom and poured out a few burnt but still fragrant pills. "This is the antidote for the Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill. I always carry it with me. If the Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill you got from Xia Zhihong is really the one I made, then all I need to do now is take the antidote and I should be able to cure the poison in my body.”
He put the few antidotes into his mouth and swallowed them. Then, he lay down beside Chu Fengyi and waited quietly for the time to pass.
After about the time it took to finish a meal, Nangong Wujiu endured the rolling and tearing pain in his stomach and grabbed Chu Fengyi's hand and placed it on his wrist.
"Feng 'er, you'll know when you take my pulse.”
Chu Fengyi suspiciously stretched out three fingers and gently pressed them on his wrist. Instantly, her face turned pale. "You…what…what's going on?”
" What you got is not the Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill," Nangong Wujiu said through gritted teeth.”
"But…the taste and color are similar. Why do you say it's not?”
"Of course not. If I was, would I still be poisoned?”
She looked at him," Then Wuji…"
"I didn't kill Wuji…No, in terms of the results, I killed Wuji. He was poisoned to death because of me, but I definitely didn't poison him myself. He's my son, my most beloved biological son. How could I do that?”
"Then…what did she give me?”
"It should be the poison she refined herself, because I once told Master some of the formulas I learned in the Phoenix Palace. She probably knew it from Master. However, you should know that even though they are called the Five Poisons, there are at least a hundred types of poisonous medicinal herbs. Therefore, unless she herself says which five types of poison she used, no matter how powerful I am, I can't cure the poison she concocted.”
Chu Fengyi nodded, but her expression was a little dull, as if she still could not accept this fact. But this was indeed the truth, because this man was once again willing to sacrifice himself to prove the truth.
Nangong Wujiu held her hand," Feng 'er, now that you know that I didn't kill Wuji, do you still blame me?”
"I…"
"Feng 'er, I really regret it. I regret that I shouldn't have kept my promise to master and told master some secret recipes of the Feng Palace, which indirectly caused Wuji's death. I regret it, I really regret it. I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness. I just want you to give me a chance to make it up to you, okay?”
" I…" Chu Fengyi did not reject him anymore. She did not pull her hand back, but she did not agree to his request either.
" Feng 'er, if you don't promise me, then I... I..." Nangong Wujiu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Chu Fengyi was shocked and she became nervous." Wujiu, are you alright?" Does it hurt? Wait, I'll…"
Nangong Wujiu shook his head and reached out to hug her." I beg you, give me a chance to make it up to you. Otherwise…Otherwise, I won't be satisfied!”
Chu Fengyi stretched out her hand and pressed it against his chest." Nonsense, you won't die. The poison in my body is deeper than yours. If I'm not dead, how can you die?"”
He caressed her pale face lovingly." Little fool! You should know this better than me. Why are you saying this? Please, on the account that I'm about to die, promise me, okay?”
She was slightly startled and then thought of the reason why she was poisoned so deeply but was able to survive, other than having the Nine Phoenix Ring to save her life, it was also related to the type of poison.
She was poisoned by two deadly poisons! Meridian Heartbroken Powder and Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill.
Logically speaking, any one of them would be enough to kill her, but now she was poisoned with two at the same time. Being poisoned by two poisons at the same time did not mean that the poison would progress faster. This was because some drugs had the effect of complementing and countering each other, and so did poisons. Therefore, although she was poisoned by two kinds of poison at the same time, because the poisons countered each other, she managed to survive. In addition, Nangong Wujiu carried her from the sky and fell from the sky. Under the rapid and powerful impact, some of the poison was transferred to the surface of her limbs, so she was able to survive.
However, Nangong Wujiu was different. First, he was injured, and then he ate Xia Zhihong's Five Poison Heart Rotting Pill. Therefore, at this moment, he was already in so much pain that he was about to die. Half of his body was lingering at the gates of hell.
" Feng 'er, I beg you, I beg you..." Nangong Wujiu hugged her, and his consciousness was gradually fading. He slowly released his hands." For the sake of me dying, I beg you..."
Chu Fengyi could not help but tear up. She reached out and hugged him tightly." I won't let you die! I won't allow you to die! You owe me so much, you owe Fearless so much, how can you die like this? I won't allow it, I won't allow it, I won't allow it!"
He forced a smile and leaned over to kiss her." Really? Then I'll…"
Before he could finish his sentence, he had already collapsed onto Chu Fengyi's body and fainted.
Chu Fengyi held a silver needle in her hand and inserted it into Nangong Wujiu's body several times. Just as she was about to insert the needle into the Tanzhong acupoint on his chest to stop the poisonous gas from circulating faster and faster in his body, a large hand grabbed her.
"Don't do this. You're injured badly yourself. Don't waste your energy doing this kind of thing for me!”
Chu Fengyi was stunned and looked at Nangong Wujiu's pale face." You're awake."”
Nangong Wujiu stood up and lowered his head to remove the needles that she had inserted into his body. At the same time, he saw the wound on his chest that had been bandaged, and a hint of gentleness appeared in his eyes.
"Feng 'er, did you help me bandage this wound? There's no one else here. It must be you, right? "I'm so happy, I…" He was so excited that he suddenly pulled on his wound. He couldn't help but moan in pain."It hurts!"
Chu Fengyi quickly helped him lie down." Don't move! Your wound is very deep and the blood is flowing non-stop. Plus, you were poisoned, so I spent a lot of effort to stop it from bleeding. You can't…"
He held her hand tightly." Are you worried about me? I thought you had no feelings for me other than hatred.”
"I hate you, but I can't just watch you die. After all, you owe me too much, you know?”
"Of course I know. That's why I jumped off the cliff for you, hurt myself for you, and took poison for you. I know that I really owe you and Fearless too much. Tell me, is the poison in your body okay? Do you need me to find the antidote?"
"Where do you want to find the antidote?"
"The person who tied the bell needs to untie the bell. Naturally, it's her!”
Chu Fengyi shook her head." No, you can't even stand up now, let alone look for her!"”
"But if you don't look for her, what will happen to the poison in your body?”
Chu Fengyi smiled gently." The poison in my body has been cured.”
Nangong Wuji was stunned for a moment before he thought of something.
He stretched out his hand to touch his body and indeed could not find the Nine Phoenix Ring. "Where is the Nine Phoenix Ring? You took it back?"
"Yes! In order to keep your promise, you found nine pieces of the Nine Phoenix Ring and also saw me, so I naturally have to take back the Nine Phoenix Ring.”
"You used the Nine Phoenix Ring to detoxify the poison?"
She nodded her head," Previously, I always thought that you were the one who caused Wuji's death, so I refused to use the Nine Phoenix Ring to cure the poison. I only wanted to die. Now that you've been injured and poisoned for me, and you're in such a deep and dangerous mountain valley, if I have a heart of stone and don't use the Nine Phoenix Ring to cure the poison, I'm worried that the two of us will really die here together.”
"As long as I can be with you, there's nothing wrong with dying here.”
She quickly covered his mouth." You're not allowed to say that. It's too negative. It makes people uncomfortable.”
He took the opportunity to kiss her palm." I love you. It's natural for me to want to live and die with you. What's the difference between being positive and negative?”
She looked at him faintly." What about Xia Zhihong?”
"Xia Zhihong?"
"Right, Xia Zhihong!"
"What does this have to do with her?"
"Of course it has something to do with me." As Chu Fengyi spoke, she helped him inject the needle again to relieve the poison in his body." The reason why Master hated me and didn't acknowledge me was because I stole his daughter's husband. It can be seen that in Master's heart, your relationship with her must be extraordinary. And I think she must love you very much, right? If she didn't love you very much, why would she do such a heartless and detestable thing?”
Nangong Wujiu closed his eyes. He was enjoying the feeling of Chu Fengyi's hands moving around his body and pricking him. "Perhaps! Maybe she loves me in her own way!”
"What about you? Do you love her?"
He opened his eyes and grabbed her hand." I only love you! Ten years ago…No, seventeen years ago, when I first saw you, I couldn't help but fall in love with you. Even now, I still only love you. I'm even willing to sacrifice my life for you. Feng 'er, don't you understand my heart? Do you really want me to dig my heart out and die in front of you before you understand?”
Nangong Wujiu was so agitated that he couldn't help but cough.
"No, I'm afraid, very afraid.”
"Afraid? What are you afraid of?"
She stared at him, her beautiful eyes suddenly filled with tears." I'm afraid that you'll hurt me. I'm afraid that you'll betray me again and lie to me. I'm afraid that my heart will break again!”
He looked back at her deeply. His eyes were gentle, bright, and clear. "You know that I've always been a little crazy and arrogant. I'd rather betray the world than let the world betray me. Only for you, I will never betray you, and I will never let you down. Do you understand?”
He shifted his gaze and looked at the verdant valley in front of him." Actually, the reason why I joined the Medicine King's sect and got engaged to Zhi Hong was because of my mother.”
"I know. You said that Master saved your mother.”
"My mother was originally the beloved concubine of Emperor Xia, Dugu Juan. It was my father who forcefully snatched her as his wife during a hunting trip. My father loved my mother very much. In order to give her the most comfortable and accustomed living environment, he specially bought many girls to serve her as palace maids so that she could live like an empress in the palace.”
"Is this why Xiang Xuehai has so many women?”
"Yes! Xiang Xuehai was the name my father gave my mother. Because my mother loves flowers and trees very much, when she has nothing to do, she will plant some flowers and plants to nourish her mood. Therefore, my father sent people to plant thousands of peach trees, plum trees, plum trees, and pear trees, so that when these trees bloom, it will be like a snowy sea. However, although Mother had followed Father for many years, the person she loved the most was still Little Brother Han's father, Dugu Juan.
Therefore, after Father passed away, she wanted to bring me back to Xia country, but we were found out and were isolated. The second time, Mother left alone and finally returned to Xia Country. However, because I was too young at that time, almost a year later, Father's subordinates sneaked into Xia Country's Imperial Palace and kidnapped her. This calamity caused my mother's illness and also caused the grudge between me, Yaowang, and Zhi Hong.”
Chu Fengyi nodded. She had heard about this from Chu Yufeng and Dugu Han, but this was the first time he had told her about it.
As she spoke, she removed the silver needles from his body and helped him sit up. She took a few clean fruits and stuffed them into his mouth. "Is it because your mother is sick and the doctors are helpless, so you came to find Master?”
"That's right. But you also know that Master doesn't treat people easily, but Mother's illness is very serious and has reached the point where she has no choice but to be treated. Therefore, he set a condition, that is, I must become his disciple and marry his daughter.”
"But Xia Zhihong wasn't born yet, was she?”
"That's right. The agreement at that time was that if Master's wife gave birth to a boy, then the two of them would become brothers. If they gave birth to a girl, they would become husband and wife. After that, my wife gave birth to a girl, so my mother kept her promise and promised to let me marry Zhi Hong when she turned eighteen. But I can't marry her. Even if I didn't meet you and fall in love with you, I still can't marry her.”
"But she lives in Xiang Xuehai, doesn't she? Since you don't want to marry her, why did she stay in Xiangxue Sea to take care of your mother?”
"Stay?" Nangong Wujiu smiled coldly." It's more like surveillance. Because she knows that Xiangxue Sea is full of women, she's afraid that my mother and I will change our minds if we see too many women. So, she decided to live in Xiangxue Sea so that she won't have to worry all day long.”
He looked into the distance and stared at the ever-changing clouds." The problem is that I don't love her at all. No, it should be said that any man who is slightly normal would never fall in love with her. Because she was suspicious, jealous, cruel, and selfish. She would often be paranoid over trivial matters and implicate others. If I remember correctly, one of my maidservants was blinded by her poison just because she looked at me twice. A maid who sewed a pair of shoes for me to please me had both her legs broken. There was also a servant girl who was poisoned to death by her just because she served me in the bath for a little too long. It's hard to believe, isn't it?"
Chu Fengyi was dumbfounded and could not close her mouth for a long time.
Blinded by poison? Broken legs? Poisoned to death? Then, as his wife who had married him, had a child with him, and lived with him for several years, shouldn't she be cut into eight pieces?
Nangong Wujiu continued," The most tragic thing was a servant girl who was sent to me by her mother. She was already two months pregnant. One day, she suddenly disappeared for no reason. A few days later, her body, which had been gnawed to a few bones by wild wolves, was finally found in the back mountain of Xiangxue Sea.”He shook his head." Which man in the world would dare to marry such a woman?”
Chu Fengyi blinked, her face still filled with disbelief. "But…but she loves you, doesn't she?”
"Love? This kind of love that forces others to accept it, even hurting others for yourself, can't be called love at all. It's robbery and occupation. I can't bear this kind of feeling, and I can't accept it.”
Chu Fengyi paused, thinking about the Xia Zhihong in his memories. Indeed, she was the kind of woman who dared to love and hate, and would give up everything for love. If such a woman wanted to take revenge on a man, then…the best way would be to start with the person she loved. That was why Fearless was killed.
When Chu Fengyi thought of Wuji, Nangong Wujiu also thought of his son Wuji.
"Feng 'Er, did you go home to visit Wuji?”
She shook her head." No. Firstly, I'm afraid of reminiscing about the past. Secondly, I don't want to go back on my vow that I won't step out of the Phoenix Palace. Thirdly, I'm afraid of meeting you. That would make me at a loss and I don't know what to do.”
Nangong Wujiu held Chu Fengyi's hand and said faintly,""If Wuji was still alive, he would already be 15 years old and he would be able to get married and have children! Unfortunately, he didn't even have the time to turn fifteen before that cruel and selfish woman Xia Zhihong killed him!”
Chu Fengyi did not answer him. She only wept silently.
Just as Chu Fengyi and Nangong Wujiu were looking at each other with tears in their eyes, a familiar yet unfamiliar female voice was heard!!
"Is that so? Nangong Wujiu, it turns out that your precious son was killed by me? So in your eyes, I, Xia Zhihong, am such a cruel, selfish, and unbearable woman!”
Chu Fengyi was stunned. He raised his head and looked ahead, only to see that Xia Zhihong, who was always dressed in red, had appeared in front of the two of them.#
