As Monk Shi lay down, Ye Jin jumped up and pressed a few acupoints on him. Dou Ma quickly took out a few talismans and stuck them on Monk Shi's five senses and seven orifices.
“Haha…” I wanted to laugh when I saw Monk Shi who was stuck like a zombie, but before I could laugh out loud, Ye Jin pointed a finger at me and I fell straight down.
Dou Ma said, "Put Wu Zhao in a cross-legged sitting position for me."
Just as Ye Jin had finished fixing me, Dou Ma was putting talismans all over my face when there was a knock on the door. Dou Ma said coldly, "Come in."
Nangong Ling outside walked in timidly like a primary school student who had done something wrong. It was not until Guan Qingyan, who was following behind her, pushed her that Nangong Ling whispered, "Senior...Senior, I came to see Brother Shi..."
Dou Ma said coldly: "The monk doesn't want to see you. He has asked me to seal his six senses with the forbidden magic spell. Not only does he not want to see you, he doesn't even want to touch anything related to you. Go away!"
Nangong Ling's tears welled up: "Senior, please... please let me talk to Brother Shi for a few words, okay?"
"What did he say?" Dou Ma said unmoved, "After the monk woke up, he only told me one thing, that he would give up 60 years of his life to remove the poison, and then he sealed his six senses. How sad must he be to make such a decision?"
Dou Ma roared in anger: "Nangong Ling, I can tell you responsibly that if you didn't have the peach blossom Gu in your body, you would have died by now!"
"No... No..." Nangong Ling said, "I just..."
"You are just what?" Dou Ma roared, "You just like the feeling of being flattered by men, so you have unclear relationships with so many people?"
"I didn't..." When Nangong Ling burst into tears, Guan Qingyan said, "Senior, you misunderstood. Lingling just didn't want to implicate Mr. Shi..."
Guan Qingyan said quickly: "A few years ago, Lingling's friend was brutally murdered. The only clue Lingling got was that the murderer was a womanizer. Lingling has been dealing with those masters of magic, just to find the other party. That person has a great background, and Lingling is afraid of implicating Mr. Shi, so she wants to force him away. In fact..."
"Humph!" Dou's mother slapped the cabinet. "Actually, she thinks she did the right thing, doesn't she?"
Before Nangong Ling could speak, Dou Ma angrily scolded: "What do you think of the monk? The monk will go through fire and water for you. You can make him understand your difficulties, but you can't say a word about your own difficulties. You think that the monk loves you and will definitely understand you in the future, right? Bullshit! People's hearts will grow cold! When his heart grows cold, let alone a peach blossom Gu, even if the Gu God descends to the world, you will get a corpse!"
"I..." Nangong Ling tried to hold back her tears, "Senior, can you please let Brother Shi go and let me talk to him? Let me explain myself! Even if Brother Shi doesn't want to pay attention to me, I will..."
"Shut up!" Dou Ma said angrily, "Nangong Ling, you still don't know where you went wrong?"
Dou Ma slammed the table and said, "When you were so angry at Guan that the monk almost killed someone, were you still smug, thinking that after so many years, the monk could still be jealous of you?"
"I'm not..." When Nangong Ling shook her head desperately, Dou Ma said, "If that's the case, the monk might forgive you. But you should never, ever make a fuss about Wu Zhao and force him out of the celebrity arena."
"Don't you know that the Celebrity Arena is related to Wu Zhao's life and death? If he loses, he may be doomed, and his friends will definitely fight to the death to avenge him. Then, it won't just be Wu Zhao who dies."
Dou Ma looked at Nangong Ling coldly and said, "The monk and Wu Zhao are brothers in life and death. How can the monk deal with it if you force Wu Zhao to death? He has no other choice but to die to thank the world and repay his confidant. Do you want to force Wu Zhao to death, or do you want to force the monk to death? Tell me—"
Nangong Ling's face turned pale and she said, "I didn't know... I didn't know it would be like this..."
"Don't you know?" Dou Ma said sternly, "You don't want to know, do you? The monk reminded you again and again in front of Guan's company that Wu Zhao is his brother. Have you ever been soft-hearted? Have you ever understood the monk?"
When Dou Ma said this, I couldn’t help but be stunned.
At that time, the monk was possessed by He Zhenzhen, so he should have known nothing. Who told Dou Ma about these things? Could it be that someone was monitoring us from the outside
Just as I was wondering, He Zhenzhen's voice suddenly rang in my ears: "At that time, I didn't possess Monk Shi. It was Monk Shi himself who was talking to Nangong Ling. If Monk Shi didn't want to protect you at all costs, you would have parted ways afterwards!"
He Zhenzhen was right. At that time, the best way was to give the right to choose to Monk Shi. The monk did not disappoint me, nor did he disappoint anyone else.
At this time, Dou Ma said sternly: "You have never cared about the monk's feelings, not at all! Maybe in your heart you think it is for the monk's good and to protect the monk, but do you really understand the monk? You don't understand the monk! That time, the monk's heart was completely cold!"
"No..." Nangong Ling covered her face and burst into tears. Guan Qingyan said at this time: "Senior, don't blame Lingling. It was my idea to force Wu Zhao to leave."
"You?" Dou Ma sneered, "Do you want to take over for Nangong Ling?"
"No!" Guan Qingyan shook her head and said, "Although I am not an expert in magic, I can see that Duan Yunfei is deliberately framing Wu Zhao. There are only two of them, and they are definitely no match for Duan Yunfei. I want Wu Zhao to withdraw. Only if they withdraw can their safety be guaranteed."
My heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.
I have long felt that it was Guan Qingyan who wanted to force me out. Because it was not in Ji Liping's interest to make us withdraw from the ring, so she would not take action. Guan Qingyan was the only one who could give orders in Guan's company.
But I didn't expect it to be this kind of reason.
Dou Ma was silent for a while before she said, "Girl Guan, you know that those people only accepted the mission for the sake of fighting. The only person who will really protect you with his life is Wu Zhao! If you force Wu Zhao away, Duan Yunfei will never fight to the death to protect you, and you will probably die a violent death!"
Guan Qingyan smiled faintly and said, "I know. From the first time I met Wu Zhao, I knew that he was a person who valued responsibility more than his life. Even if he didn't know his employer, as long as the employer didn't harm him, he would risk his life to protect the other party."
"Wu Zhao is so smart, he must have figured out that I was the one who did something behind the scenes, so he hates me." Guan Qingyan showed a bitter smile on her face, "So what? If we can't escape this disaster, we will never have the chance to meet again..."
Although I couldn't move, I could see the sadness in Guan Qingyan's eyes through the gaps in the talisman.
Guan Qingyan said slowly: "Lingling and I have known each other for a short time, but we can talk about anything. I asked Lingling to help me drive Wu Zhao away. Don't blame Lingling for this matter..."
Ye Jin couldn't help but say, "Qingyan, since you are willing to sacrifice your life for Wu Zhao, why didn't you say a word when you were at Guan's house?"
"Shut up!" Dou Ma turned around and spit at Ye Jin, "Do you think everyone is the same as you, spitting out whatever you have in your mouth?"
"At that time, Guan was inexplicably forced into a marriage. Anyone would have no idea how to face Wu Zhao. What do you want her to do? Hug Wu Zhao and cry, begging him not to leave? Or have a falling out with her family and follow him around the world without hesitation?"
"If Wu Zhao and Guan Yatou were swapped, would Wu Zhao be able to do such a thing?"
Ye Jin whispered: "I guess, with Zhaozi's daring nature, he can do it."
"Bah!" Dou's mother simply spat at him, "What do you do? You are from the underworld, do you know? You are just like duckweed in the water or candles in the wind. If you don't say anything, you may not have the chance to say it in the future. You can fart and then go to the underworld with your swords, but what about others?"
"Besides, don't you see what kind of people you are? Guan is a lady from a wealthy family, do you think you are as shameless as you?"
Ye Jin was scolded so badly by Dou Ma that he couldn't even lift his head. I couldn't describe how I felt.
When Guan Qingyan and I just got married, I actually felt very confused and didn't know how to face Guan Qingyan. At that time, Guan Qingyan was always avoiding me. Not only did I not think about seeing her day and night, but I felt a lot more relaxed. At that time, if I really wanted to see Guan Qingyan, I didn't know what to say.
Looking back, Guan Qingyan was probably the same as me at that time!
Dou Ma turned to Guan Qingyan and said, "After Wu Zhao left you, did you ever think of contacting him? With Guan's strength, it shouldn't be difficult to find someone, right?"
"I have thought about it. But..." Guan Qingyan said, "I don't dare to go find him. He left so decisively, without even looking at me. I don't know how to face Wu Zhao. Wu Zhao should hate the Guan family and me, right?"
"After Wu Zhao left, the Guan family's business plummeted, and I have been busy trying to save the Guan family's business. At that time, my grandfather also came to me and advised me to find Wu Zhao and ask him to come back to help the Guan family through the difficulties. But I didn't want to find Wu Zhao. If that happened, I would feel..."
Guan Qingyan took a deep breath and said, "I didn't expect that we would meet again, and meet under such circumstances. I became his employer again, and he became the warlock who protected me again."
"But the relationship between us no longer has the pure feeling we had when we first met. Although I know he will still take me through thick and thin, I just want to force him away."
"I know that Jianghu is his world, and I believe he can turn defeat into victory. But I still don't want to see him struggling for his life, even if it's for me."
Guan Qingyan said: "I don't understand the martial arts world, nor do I understand the people in the martial arts world. At that time, I just... What's the point of saying this... Senior, can you forgive Lingling?" (To be continued)
