Chapter 21

"How long have I been asleep?" Wu Que took the clothes and asked while putting them on. It seemed that he was satisfied with Xiao Yu'er's explanation, and his tone eased.

Xiao Yu'er smiled and said: "For four days and three nights, my whole body was so hot that I couldn't touch it. I remembered that you once said that you can put yourself in an ice bath when you practice. You must not be afraid of the cold, so I came up with this idea. If I don't put you Stripped off the heat dissipation, and then put more ice to freeze you in this coffin. I don’t know if your ice cube will be burned. But seeing that you can get angry and curse, it must be all right, and your brain seems to be still. It's not burned. Come on, wipe off the sweat, don't catch a cold just after the fever subsides." He said and handed over a wet towel.

Wu Que took the towel, heard Xiao Yu'er's intention to put himself in the coffin, looked carefully inside the coffin, and there were indeed bags of crushed ice, felt that he was really wronged just now, and seemed a little apologetic in his words, and asked: "Brother Hai, thank you for your hard work... Can someone come here? Has Brother Hai ever been in distress?"

"Of course no one came to this kind of ghostly place, the two girls didn't come, you people from Yihua Palace didn't come, and those righteous people who coveted the secrets of Yihuajieyu didn't come either." Xiao Yu'er said these days Seeing that Wu Que seemed relieved, he joked: "But although no one came, I still closed the lid of the coffin tightly, because you have a fever and you talk nonsense too loudly. I have heard the secret of the family changing flowers and picking up jade, so what's the matter?"

It was too late to say it, Wu Que stroked his sleeves, his two fingers were already on Xiao Yu'er's Achilles' heel, and asked in a low voice: "I told you the secret of Yihuajieyu? Did you hear that? "

"I really have no sense of humor. If I really heard it, how could I tell you?" Xiao Yu'er spoke lightly, but was already in a cold sweat.

Wu Que withdrew his hand, and sighed with a long sigh: "Did I really not say...Brother Hai always makes jokes like this, so be careful to hurt your own life next time."

Xiao Yu'er thought to himself: "You won't kill me, you will only pretend to be cruel and fierce to bluff people. Those Taoist nuns of the Emei sect who wanted to take your life, you just knocked their acupuncture points with a hidden weapon, and you didn't want to kill me." Anyone's life, how can you easily kill your own savior now?" But he still didn't say anything, just apologized and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, next time I will definitely not make such a terrible joke, but this time I'm not completely nonsense, you did have a high fever and talked nonsense for three days."

"I... what did I say?" Although Wu Que was still pretending to be calm, his emotions seemed to be moved by Xiao Yu'er again.

"What did you say? You keep saying sorry for a while, and then say it's all the disciple's fault, and nothing is useful." Xiao Yu'er curled her lips and said, "It seems that I also yelled Xiao Lan's twice in a confused way. name……"

Hearing what Xiao Yuer said, Wu Que didn't talk to him anymore, just stared at him stupidly for a while.Seeing that Xiao Yu'er's eyes seemed to be sunken, he must have been taking care of himself non-stop for the past few days... He couldn't help but say, "Brother Hai made me laugh... You're the one taking care of me these days? Actually, you There is no need to do this. I wanted Brother Hai to go back to find the two girls first. Although this poisonous hair looks scary, it is actually not that easy to die..."

Xiao Yu'er touched Wu Que's forehead, and found that the fever had indeed completely subsided, and there should be nothing serious about it.He accidentally met Wu Que's gaze, and he couldn't stand his starry gaze. He turned his head away in embarrassment, and said angrily, "You think I want to take care of you? You look half-dead." , I feel uncomfortable when I see it, and when I close my eyes, what kind of dreams are I dreaming! The palace ladies who died in various ways are creepy! I was awakened by the nightmare immediately. It seems that I don’t want you to hurry up , I can’t even sleep soundly! Are those your dreams? Have you really killed so many women? Or have you seen so many court ladies who violated palace rules die in front of you?”

Wu Que seemed a little surprised that Xiao Yuer would have his own dream, but the surprise in his eyes turned into guilt in an instant, and he whispered: "I'm sorry..."

Xiao Yuer saw that Wuque's usual aloofness had completely collapsed. Although he still looked calm now, he seemed to have really fallen into deep self-blame and couldn't extricate himself, so he comforted him: "You will kill them all!" Is it because of orders and palace rules? Since you are only following orders, it is your master who killed them. You respect women so much, is it because you have killed too many women and feel indebted to them that you treat them so well? "

Wu Que didn't mean to ask himself. He just lowered his eyes and said, "Whether it's true as you said, I don't know, and I don't want to know. All I know is that I have enough blood on my hand, so I don't want to kill any more without orders." One person is."

This sentence reminded Xiao Yu'er, so he asked Wu Que: "Don't kill anyone again, even that traitor? You said you didn't hate that traitor before you fainted, do you already know who that traitor is?"

Wu Que glanced left and right, seemed to feel that this place was really secret, and it was impossible for someone to overhear, so he told Xiao Yu'er frankly, "It's Helu."

Xiao Yu'er was startled and said: "He Lu?! How do you know it's her? Didn't you kill her? Could it be a fake death?"

Wu Que said with certainty: "I had verified my integrity at the time, and it was impossible for her to be a fraudulent death. She was indeed poisoned to death by me, so if I died under this poison this time, it would not be considered wrong. The poison Chilianni The rainbow is a unique sacred object of our school, which devours the internal energy of our school. The stronger the skill, the more severe the poison will be. This thing is harmless to ordinary people, but if it invades the body of Yihuamen, it will cause high fever and death within a hundred days During the period of poisoning, if the palace lord changes his mind and gives the antidote, the high fever will gradually subside and he will not die. The raw materials of Chilian neon are rare, difficult to refine, and it is a powerful thing that can be used against one's own people, so it is natural to give it to him. The most trustworthy person will keep it, and ordinary maids can't get it at all, according to the usual practice, this medicine should be handed over to the chief maid of the Internal Ring Department for safekeeping."

"Then He Lu is the chief maid of the Internal Precepts Department?" Xiao Yu'er said in shock, "If she is really dead, it is presumed that the person who poisoned her was the lover who had an affair with her?"

Wu Que said: "I guessed the same way. And shortly after she left, I did find out that one piece of the red neon was missing. I never thought that this thing would actually flow out. If her lover got this thing, take it To seek revenge on me is quite courageous, he is a person who values ​​love and righteousness..."

Xiao Yu'er smiled: "You are so innocent. Those Taoist nuns of the Emei Sect didn't come here to avenge He Lu, they came here for the secret of stealing money! How do you know that man didn't come for this purpose?"

Wu Que said: "I don't know, maybe he released the bait for revenge, and used the power of the Emei Sect to use it for him? Everything can only be determined after finding out who the man is. That man...is he Jiang Xiaoyu? Woolen cloth?"

Xiao Yu'er was shocked when he heard this, and asked Wu Que with a smirk, "Jiang Xiaoyu? Why did you think of him?"

Wu Que frowned and said: "These days, I have been looking around for Jiang Xiaoyu's whereabouts. If he gets wind of it, he must be afraid and wants to get rid of me first. You said that this person is insidious and cunning. If he knows about Yihua Palace To hunt him down, could it be He Lu who he seduced, trying to plot something wrong? He Lu said that her lover did not want to be named, but only vaguely heard that his surname was Jiang. All these clues were pieced together, and it turned out that Jiang Xiaoyu's Most suspect."

Xiao Yu'er sighed inwardly: Such reasoning really went smoothly. If I wasn't Jiang Xiaoyu, I might have thought the same way. Could it be that this time I was duped into the pot of shit for no apparent reason and suffered from being dumb?cant!

So Xiao Yuer thought about it again and again, and finally suddenly realized: "Jiang Yulang! It must be Jiang Yulang!"
