Chapter 70: Breath of Death (1)
During the journey with Yinyin , Guisha made a new discovery, but this new discovery made him feel inexplicably hesitant and uneasy, so he buried it in his heart. Even if he knew it, it might not be a good thing. Rather than making himself hesitant and uneasy, it is better not to find out...
"We should be able to reach Weicheng before dark. Are you mentally prepared?"
"It has come to this point, how could I possibly back off?"
Guisha and Yinyin appeared on a hill, looking down at the once prosperous Weicheng, which was shrouded in plague. What has it become now? Guisha had to admire Yinyin's determination. From the beginning to the end, he thought Yinyin's behavior looked childish, but he had to admit that she had strong willpower.
"Until then, eat this."
After a moment's silence, Guisha took out a small white bottle from his waist and handed it to Yinyin.
"What's this?"
Yin Yin took the small bottle from Guisha and asked, or rather, she was curious about what Guisha would give her at this time.
"Your medicine."
"Medicine? What medicine? I don't feel any discomfort."
Yin Yin looked at Guisha and asked curiously.
"You only take medicine when you're feeling unwell. Don't you want to go to Weicheng? If you go to a place like that without any precautions, you'll only end up dead. Taking that thing will be good for you."
After hearing Guisha's words, Yinyin was stunned for a moment, and then quickly turned to look at the vial that Guisha handed to her. Although Guisha didn't explain clearly, Yinyin was not so slow. What surprised Yinyin was not Guisha's words, but whether the things in the vial were really so effective? With half belief and half doubt, Yinyin opened the vial and poured out a few pills from it. The color was very strange, dark purple?
"You can just take one pill a day from now on."
While listening to the ghost's words, Yinyin looked at the pill in her hand. The things the ghost gave her were always different. But could she trust the ghost's words? From his tone, he didn't sound false. On the contrary, he was very confident. If it was really as he said, Yinyin felt that it was undoubtedly a good thing for the ghost to accompany her this time. She didn't know what the result would be yet. Yinyin picked up a pill and swallowed it.
"Why do you have this thing in your hand?"
Yin Yin asked after swallowing the pills and putting the extra pills back into the bottle .
"Don't worry about this. It's just that if you get infected, it will be a headache for me."
"Because you have a date with someone?"
"Um."
Guisha is very direct in everything he does. He won't tell others things he doesn't want to tell them, but he will never hide things that he can tell. Yinyin likes but also hates this kind of character of his. But no matter what, this might be an opportunity.
"You are such a strange person."
"When it comes to weirdness, no one can compare to you."
Who is weirder? Different people will have different opinions.
"Oh, so if I get the plague, will you save me?"
"Plague is an incurable disease."
"Really? For you?"
Since the ghost demon can be resisted with pills, there must be ways to control and treat it. Yin Yin thinks so, at least for now. Whether the pills are effective or not needs to be proven later, but some things can only be said now.
"... Let's go. If we delay any longer, we might not arrive until dark."
"Um!"
Guisha was of course aware of the hidden meaning in Yinyin's words, and he also knew that this was a test. Since he didn't want to intervene, he didn't want to say much. The result didn't matter. He just had to abide by the agreement and take Yinyin to that place. No matter what happened, he didn't want to ask. But soon, he couldn't help thinking like this, and he had to face the time of choice!
When I passed through the woods where I had stayed for a short time after leaving Weicheng that day...
"Huh? There seems to be someone ahead?"
Yinyin discovered that she could see a figure not far ahead through the gaps between the trees. Guisha also discovered it, but he just didn't say it out loud like Yinyin did. So when Yinyin and Guisha gradually approached the place where there were people...
"What is that?"
The two people who appeared before me were the ones I had met once before, and the ones who had caused me to have a relationship with...
“It’s really them.”
Yin Yin looked at the two people who appeared beside the carriage not far away in front of her in surprise. They were a group of people, and they seemed to be evacuating? But why did they stop in such a place? And Wen Shao and Luo Yan seemed to be very sad?
"Master Wen, Miss Luo——"
When approaching the crowd, Yin Yin called out, and everyone looked over at her.
"Zhang, no, princess? Ah, meet the princess——"
Wen Shao was a little surprised when he saw Yin Yin, and then he quickly helped Luo Yan to kneel down and salute Yin Yin. The others also knelt down under the leadership of their master . Yin Yin hurriedly got off the horse, ran to Wen Shao and Luo Yan, helped them up and said: "Master Wen, Miss Luo, get up quickly."
"No, I am so lucky to see you again today. I and my wife Luo Yan would like to apologize for our disrespect to you. Not only were we disrespectful to you, but we also dragged you into trouble. Please forgive us if we have offended you!"
After being helped up, Wen Shao and Luo Yan bowed deeply to Yin Yin again and apologized. To them, Yin Yin was a benefactor. They never dreamed that the person they met on the lake that day would be the focus of Da Zhou now. Why is she the focus? The only one who doesn't know is probably Yin Yin herself. Yin Yin's deeds and the opposition between the King of Da Zhou and Prince Jing in order to get her, how could she, who could influence the future of Da Zhou, not be paid attention to?
