"This poison..."
After everyone left, Gu Qingyin hesitated and opened her mouth.
She looked at the old lady with a complicated face, even more puzzled and perplexed, and finally chose to ask directly: "Who gave you the bet?"
This question has troubled her for three days.
Perhaps in Zhou Jinyi's eyes, she has never seen this kind of troublesome poison, and she doesn't know how to solve it.
But in Gu Qingyin's eyes, she was all too familiar with the poison in the old lady's body.
Isn't this thousands of silk windings the handwriting of her master
When recalling, Gu Qingyin was already in a daze.
"Qingqing, this is the poison newly conceived by the master. For the time being, I will call it Qiansifang. In the future, if you meet someone who is hateful and disgusting, you can use this Qiansifang to torture people. Whether it is joy or anger Sorrow and joy, as long as the poisoned person has excessive emotional fluctuations, this poison can make him feel the pain of bone erosion. Although it will not make people die from poisoning, it can make life worse than death, and it is used to torture people. That is the most suitable. Come on, watch it, as a teacher, I will teach you how to refine it."
Is this a hateful and disgusting person
Looking at the old lady's pale complexion, Gu Qingyin felt complicated and unspeakable in her heart, but the advice from Ling Yingzhuo's teaching time sounded in her ears again.
"However, this antidote is not so easy to prepare. It is better to use this poison with caution. If you are not a person who hates it, you don't have to do it so hard, lest you can't prepare the antidote when you are soft-hearted. Can't cure the poison."
When she was in a trance, it was the old lady's voice that brought Gu Qingyin back to her senses.
"If I said it was done by your master, would you still try your best to rescue him?"
Seeing the old lady's serious gaze with some anticipation, Gu Qingyin was stunned for a moment.
Xu knew that she couldn't get the answer she expected, so the old lady only asked this question, and before Gu Qing could speak, she calmed down, regained her usual indifference, and turned her head to look aside .
Gu Qingyin frowned slightly, and said, "If you hadn't treated him like this, he wouldn't have attacked you, would he?"
"Don't you really think of him as a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others? Although, he poisoned me to save his life, but in his eyes, human life is nothing. Do you care about the extra life of your subordinates? You are good, you have not learned anything good from your parents, and you have learned all the bad things from that person."
Gu Qingyin was a little dazed.
Although there was a touch of blame and disappointment in these words, she actually felt a little different warmth from them.
It's like an elder treating a naughty child, disappointed, blamed, but helpless.
The old lady sighed softly.
"Forget it, I have something to say, I'd better take you there first and then talk about it."
When Gu Qingyin came back to her senses, the old lady had already got off the bed.
Putting on her clothes, she called someone to wait for her to wash her clothes, and she ordered someone to put on a big coat behind Gu Qingyin's back, and then she took Gu Qingyin out of the room.
Looking at the hand warmer that the old lady forcefully stuffed into her hands, Gu Qingyin said in a daze, "It's sunny today, I'm not cold, so I don't need this."
It's rare to see Gu Qingyin's childlike appearance, and a faint smile appeared in the old lady's eyes unconsciously.
"You'll know it's cold later."
After that, the old lady stopped talking and just led Gu Qingyin forward slowly without saying a word.
Fortunately, Gu Qingyin was not a talkative person. Although she was puzzled, she still obediently followed the steps of the old lady, step by step towards the unknown destination.
Outside the sword mound, the guards are heavily guarded.
If it wasn't because she was not good at using a sword, Gu Qingyin would almost have thought that the old lady brought her here because she wanted to choose a peerless sword for her to use.
"You all go down."
After dismissing the accompanying attendants, the old lady brought Gu Qingyin into the sword mound.
Along the way, the guards of the Sword Tomb didn't talk too much, they just saluted the old lady respectfully, and then continued to stick to their posts.
There was no one who asked more questions, which surprised Gu Qingyin a little. Could it be that the guards here are all under the old lady's subordinates instead of He Zhengde's subordinates
Before Gu Qingyin could think about it, she was already shivering from the cold.
In this way, she remembered that there was a cold pool under the sword mound.
The further you go down, the colder the surrounding environment becomes.
At this moment, Gu Qingyin understood the significance of the old lady adding clothes to her and giving her a stove.
She was such a strong young man, she could hardly bear the cold here. On the other hand, the old lady in front of her, who was just recovering from a serious illness, looked normal.
Finally, Gu Qingyin couldn't help asking.
"Why did you bring me here?"
The old lady didn't answer her, she just led her around in the winding passage here, and replied softly: "Don't get lost."
The further you go down, the fewer and fewer guards there are.
The old lady was very familiar with the terrain inside, and she was brought to the bottom of the cold pool by the old lady almost without a pause.
Looking at the cold air rising from the pool, Gu Qingyin couldn't help shivering, and subconsciously clenched the hand warmer in her hand.
Here, there are no guards anymore, only their grandparents and grandchildren are standing at this moment.
"Have you been complaining about why we have trapped your master for so many years?"
Gu Qingyin frowned, looked up at the old lady's indifferent expression, and slowly opened her mouth: "That's right. So, what is the grudge between my master and you?"
Originally, Gu Qingyin only thought that He Zhengde insisted on imprisoning her master for so many years, but after staying in Qingyangmen for a long time, she realized that this old lady was more qualified to speak than He Zhengde.
The old lady lowered her eyes and didn't answer directly, but walked towards the stone wall beside her, and turned the mechanism hidden inside the stone wall.
The sound of gears turning slowly sounded, and Gu Qingyin followed the old lady's gaze towards the cold pool, only to discover something strange in the pool.
Under the pool, something seemed to slowly rise up with the rotation of the mechanism.
"I didn't intend to trap him here, I just wanted to ask him to save people."
When the sound of the gears turning stopped, the things under the pool water floated up to the surface of the pool. Under the leadership of the old lady, Gu Qingyin followed her blankly on the stone path that rose from the pool, and walked to the high platform that rose in the middle of the cold pool.
"It's a pity that your master toasts and doesn't drink fine wine, no matter how we try to persuade him, he just doesn't want to make a move."
After approaching, Gu Qingyin discovered the ice coffin placed in the high platform.
She tightened the hand warmer in her hand to hide the strange tension in her heart.
"What's this… "
"This is a mysterious ice coffin made of thousands of years of black ice."
When she reached the Xuanbing coffin, the old lady stopped. She ignored the cold air oozing from the Xuanbing coffin, and directly raised her hand to caress the body of the coffin.
At this moment, the old lady was no longer as cold as usual. She focused on the coffin under her hands, her eyes were unusually soft and full of love and compassion.
This was the first time that Gu Qingyin saw such a gentle old lady. Even when she was usually facing Zhou Jinyi, the old lady never showed such soft eyes.
"Actually, even if your master doesn't poison me, I won't put him to death. Because, the only one who can save him in this world is your master. How can I let your master really have something to do?"
Gu Qingyin was stunned for a moment, and she followed the old lady's hand to look down, only to notice the person lying in the Xuanbing coffin.
Through the Xuanbing, she couldn't see the face of the person in the coffin clearly, but could only vaguely see the outline of the person inside.
The woman's intuition told herself that the person that the old lady wanted her master to rescue probably had something to do with the person in the coffin.
Or, that is the person in the coffin.
But in this world, who can make the old lady so persistent
She stared at the blurred face in the mysterious ice coffin, and when she spoke, her voice trembled uncontrollably.
"Who? Who do you want to save? Who is lying here?"
The old lady pursed her lips, and directly opened the black ice coffin in front of Gu Qingyin, revealing the same face of the person inside.
"Your father."
When Gu Qingyin was shocked, the old lady turned her head again, looked at Gu Qingyin's wide eyes, and said again: "It's your father, and the one lying here is your biological father. My own son. In this world, only your master can save your father. So, do you still insist on cooperating with those outsiders to take your master away?"
Gu Qingyin shook her body, and she grabbed the coffin body firmly to stabilize her figure.
"Ridiculous! What nonsense!"
Looking at the lifeless person in the coffin, Gu Qingyin's eyes turned red involuntarily, but she forced herself not to blink, and said with trembling lips: "My parents are already dead, what's wrong with people dying?" There may be a day of resurrection!"
"He's not dead!"
The old lady sternly shouted: "Your mother is the only one who died, he is not dead! He is still alive, as long as your master is willing to take action, he will definitely wake up again!"
Those who are still breathing but cannot wake up are the living dead.
In this world, Ling Yingzhuo is indeed the only one who can save the living dead.
"No...it's impossible...obviously, obviously they all said..."
"It is said that the bones of the husband and wife are hard to find, right? It is said that He Zhengde killed the siblings, right? But these words were ever told to you by your master himself?"
Gu Qingyin clenched her fists tightly, gritted her teeth and said, "When I knew my life experience, my master fell into your hands. How can I listen to my master's own words about the past?"
"Your master is not here, what about Liu Sanniang? Why doesn't she want to tell you?"
Gu Qingyin was taken aback.
Indeed, not only was my master unwilling to tell me about my life experience back then, even Liu Sanniang was never willing to tell.
Even if she learned about her life experience from Master Tianchan, Liu Sanniang just told her that the old lady didn't like her mother and told her not to go back and ask for trouble.
But Liu Sanniang never said anything else.
No one had ever told her why her parents died, and she could only guess the most likely reason from the rumors in the arena and some things mentioned by others.
"Of course they don't want you to know. Could it be that you want them to tell you that your father is not dead, it was your master who ruthlessly took away your mother and you, and left your father where he was to live on his own?" If he died, he missed the best chance for him to survive, and now he just lies here with a sigh of relief, unable to wake up again?"
Every word is heart-wrenching, probably what Gu Qingyin is feeling at the moment.
If it weren't for Gu Qingyin's grip on Xuanbing's coffin, she might have fallen backwards already.
Why, the truth would be like this
"There is a treasure in the school of genius doctors, the life extension pill, which can extend a person's life, but this medicine is extremely rare. Back then, your aunt got a life extension pill by chance and gave it to your mother .At that time, it was your mother who gave up the chance to continue her own life and fed it to your father, so that she could last her last breath for your father."
The old lady paused, and the anger in her eyes could not be concealed.
"But your master, obviously able to save him at that time, but he gave up your father in order to save your helpless mother and to take the two of you away. When we arrived , it is already too late. Even if I gather all the genius doctors of the genius doctor school, I can only let him continue this breath, but I can't make him wake up again."
Shocked, Gu Qingyin had already forgotten how to speak.
"Do you think, all these years, I am willing to let you wander outside? As early as when you were taken away, I sent someone to look for you. But your master took you to wander around the rivers and lakes, blocking all The people we sent, and even the devil Ji Zhe secretly helped us, so how can we find you? It is they who prevented you from recognizing your ancestors and returning to your clan, not because we don't want you to return home! We are the ones Your dearest family, but how did you treat us after you came back? You deliberately wanted to put us to death! We have already let you make trouble in the mansion, what else are you dissatisfied with? It's fine for you to act recklessly, but you still did such outrageous things... You thought it was He Zhengde who did something to your parents, and that's why you secretly tampered with him during this period of time? Silly boy, don't think about it , if it is really him, how can I let him live till now?"
After listening to the old lady say so much, Gu Qingyin just opened her mouth dully.
"But you... you really don't like my mother..."
"Of course I don't like your mother. Your father was supposed to be the future sect master, but your mother was too kind and made your father's temperament more and more merciful. If he was just a person, then There is no problem. But he still has to bear the fate of the entire Qingyangmen, how can I let him be so weak? Who knows that I just scolded your mother a few words, and he will childishly lead you and you My mother ran away from home, which really disappointed me! If he hadn't been so impulsive, how could he... "
Thinking of this, the old lady couldn't hide her pain. She took a deep breath, and after calming down her extreme emotions, she continued: "Forget it, don't mention what happened back then. I brought you here today just to tell you that your uncle didn't harm your parents Those who lost their lives, you don't have to hate him like this anymore. Some things are not as complicated as you imagined. What we want is for your master to save people. If he was willing to do it earlier, we naturally wouldn't It has troubled him so far. In the future, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask me directly, and stop being self-righteous, okay?"
Knowing too much all of a sudden, Gu Qingyin couldn't get back to her senses.
She just watched in a daze as the old lady closed the black ice coffin, watched in a daze as the old lady led her down the plank road, and watched in a daze as the old lady turned the mechanism and put the high platform and the plank road into the cold pool among.
"Now, do you still want to save your master? Do you still want to save the person who prevented us from reuniting as a family?"
It was only now that Gu Qingyin knew that there was such a reason why her master and Liu Sanniang would avoid talking about her life experience all these years.
But so what
For her, even if her childhood memories are blurred, she also knows that her teacher has treated her best since she was a child.
Even if my master is not a good person, he still treats me best after all.
Without hesitating for a long time, Gu Qingyin raised her head and responded: "As you said, after the martial arts competition recruits relatives, you can give me the key to the dungeon."
"Ah."
As soon as this was mentioned, the old lady became angry.
"What I'm talking about is telling you to find a young man to marry, but I'm telling you to run away with that little devil!"
Gu Qingyin's face froze, and she turned her head unnaturally.
"If I really ran away, where would I come back?"
"If it wasn't for your master who is still trapped here, would you really come back?"
Gu Qingyin was a little guilty, but she still replied calmly: "I don't know..."
Seeing her like this, the old lady sneered and said: "Well, let me ask you, if you were given a choice between your master and that little devil, who would you choose? If you choose your master, then you will choose I can’t meet that little devil again. If I choose that little devil, I don’t have to stop you, but you will no longer be able to meddle in the affairs between us and your master. How dare you choose one. "
Hearing this, Gu Qing's face suddenly darkened.
Just when the old lady thought that Gu Qingyin would shake her sleeves and leave, Gu Qingyin said in a deep voice: "Since you mentioned her, let me tell you solemnly. She is very important to me. It's important. That's the person I've decided to be with for the rest of my life, and it's impossible for me to give up on her. As for my master, that's the benefactor who raised me, and I won't abandon him."
Xu had expected Gu Qingyin to say this a long time ago, but the old lady didn't get very angry this time, she just gave Gu Qingyin a casual glance, and left on crutches first.
"Don't worry, I don't want to force you to make a decision."
People who have passed through the gate of hell will naturally have a different state of mind than before.
"After so many years of persistence, I am also tired. After you go out, you can go to your uncle to lead the way. From now on, I don't want to worry about your marriage. But don't be too happy, it's just It’s just a repayment of your kindness for saving my life this time. The matter between you and her is too ridiculous, and I will never agree to it! Want to be our Qingyangmen’s door-to-door son-in-law? Let her wait for the next life !"
Even though she said so, the old lady's tone at this moment has lost the usual sharpness.
Is this ready to turn a blind eye
After Gu Qingyin came to her senses, she hurriedly trotted to catch up with the old lady's pace. After deliberating for a while, she followed behind the old lady and whispered: "Thank you..."
