Chapter 72 Portrait
Xinsu Eryi regained his skills and restrained Gu Weirui, but Gu Weirui seemed to be without any surprises. She was quiet and calm, and looked like she was putting life and death aside, which made Xinsu Er unable to help but move.
On the other hand, Xinsu Er didn't know that Ye Mei was pretending to die. But since she saw Gu Weirui's ability to fascinate her, she knew that Gu Weirui must be a master of poisoning, so she was a little suspicious whether Ye Mei had saved Gu Weirui. Therefore, she carried Gu Weirui down from the beam and arrived next to Ye Mei, Xinsu Er checked Ye Mei's body again, and the result showed that she was indeed completely gone.
Xinsu Er calmed down and said to Gu Weirui: "Okay, since you want to see the leader, let's leave."
Even though she said so, she still dared not easily untie Gu Weirui's acupoints. What happened before made Xin Su Er have to be afraid of the other party.
Xinsu Er not only has great ability to poison, but also has high martial arts skills. Apart from Ji Liao, Sisy Villa, I am afraid that even Ji Shan may not be her opponent. She easily deceived the people in the villa and took Gu Weirui out.
But Xinsu Er didn't notice it, and Ji Liao followed her slowly.
Ji Liao is very particular about stalking people. He will not get too close to him and lock the other person with just a feeling. Therefore, even if the other person has some spiritual sense, it is extremely difficult to find that he is following him.
After walking about thirty miles, I arrived at a house at the foot of the mountain. There were no other houses around the house, isolated behind a small hillside. At this time, the setting sun shone on the hillside, pulling out long shadows, and crows counted points, surrounding a locust tree in front of the house, and occasionally chirping, which was quite lonely and desolate.
It is approaching summer now, and the weather is getting warmer. The locust tree is a bit abnormal and blooms in advance. A bunch of butterfly-shaped white locust flowers grow on the branches, overlapping and hanging. From a distance, it looks like a funeral, and it is close to it. In addition, the surrounding desolation sets off a gloomy and weird atmosphere.
A girl in green shirt and green sleeves was sitting cross-legged under the locust tree. A black cat was squatting on the roof opposite her. The sea-blue eyes emitted a faint light. The white locust flowers were like paper money, swaying on the tree. Occasionally, the wind came, like ghosts singing.
The girl closed her eyes cross-legged, her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and her lips also lost their blood, as if she was fighting against something invisible.
Xinsu Er walked over with Gu Weirui, but did not dare to get too close to the locust tree. She bowed slightly to the black cat on the roof, as if she was showing a bow. The black cat opened its mouth and exhaled a ball of air. A breeze blew, and there was a scent of sunshine, creating an invisible corridor without gloomy and strange aura.
Only then did Xinsu Er walk through this invisible corridor with Gu Weirui and finally enter the house.
Gu Weirui was also secretly surprised when she saw the girl in green shirt and green sleeves, because that was Chen Xiaohan. Obviously, her condition is not very good now, and she must have been trapped by something. The cold poison caused by her heavy Yin Qi is, in the words of a monk, which is considered a ghost Yin constitution, and in fact she can feel many special things.
Therefore, Gu Weirui seemed to see that the locust flowers were actually human faces, expressionless and very terrifying. But behind these people's faces, there seemed to be invisible silk threads, and the source of the silk threads was the black cat on the roof.
Before she could find out more, she was taken into the house by Xinsu Er.
There is a small courtyard inside, and a person stands in the main hall facing the gate. She is wearing a purple long skirt and a gold-plated ribbon wrapped around her waist. Her long black hair is as black as a waterfall, and her graceful back will naturally make people imagine what a peerless charm she is.
In front of the woman was a shrine with incense on it. The curling cigarettes were lit up with a portrait. In the portrait was a man riding a horse with a long sword. The man's white clothes were a little yellow. I don't know if the portrait was a little yellow or the white clothes in the painting were old. But the scabbard of his long sword was old, because the leather of the scabbard could be seen to be damaged.
A faint smile on the man's face was like the sunshine in spring, which made him look ordinary and deeply impressed.
Gu Weirui knew that the woman was Mu Qing, but she didn't know who the man in this portrait was, so why Mu Qing wanted to worship his portrait like a god.
Xinsu Er bowed outside the door and said, "Master, this woman wants to see you."
Mu Qing turned around slowly. Her appearance was ten times more moving than her back. Even after a glance at Gu Weirui, as a woman, was still a little lost.
Mu Qing smiled slightly and said, "It turned out to be you. Now your underworld wish has been driven away. What else do you want to come to me for?"
As she spoke, her fingers bounced slightly, and the air was strong, unbuttoning Gu Weirui's acupoints.
Gu Weirui was able to move freely and walked into the main hall. She said, "I don't understand some things, I want to ask you."
Mu Qing looked at her from beginning to end and smiled and said, "You ask."
Gu Weirui said: "Why did you kill the entire Zhang family?"
Mu Qing smiled and said, "Did you come to ask for Ji Liao?"
Gu Weirui nodded and said, "That's right, can you tell me?"
Mu Qing glanced at Xinsu Er and said, "You go out first, I'll be alone with this girl Gu for a while."
Xinsu Er had no reason to disobey and quickly retreated.
After Mu Qing waited for Xinsu Er to go out, he smiled and said with a smile: "Can I ask you a question before answering your question?"
Gu Weirui paused slightly and said, "You said."
From the memory of Miss Zhang's Mingyuan, she learned that Mu Qing was actually a very gentle woman. Therefore, although Mu Qing is gentle to her now, she is not surprised. Because Mu Qing is like this, her killing without any taboos during conversation and laughter makes people even more elusive about her true nature.
Mu Qing said, "I can see that you are in poor health now, so I want to ask you, if you are given a chance to live forever, but the premise is that you are asked to kill Ji Liao, will you seize this opportunity?"
Gu Weirui was slightly stunned and quickly replied: "I won't kill him."
Mu Qing watched her for a while and said, "I believe, at least that's what you really think now."
Gu Weirui said: "So this is the reason why you killed the head of the Zhang family?"
Mu Qing shook his head and said, "No, look at this portrait."
Gu Weirui said: "The person in this portrait has a close relationship with you?"
Mu Qing smiled and said, "I once loved him, just as you loved Ji Liao."
Although she smiled, Gu Weirui felt that there was a lot of desolation in her smile. In the portrait, the man's smile was like the spring sunshine, which could make flowers bloom, while Mu Qing's smile was like the winter sunshine, which melted the ice and snow, making the surroundings colder.
"You killed him." Gu Weirui couldn't help asking.
