Chapter 44
His three lifetimes of luck
Author: Naughty Gu Gu
The sound of rain outside the cave became louder and louder, and apart from the sound of rain, no one's voice could be heard anymore.
After killing countless people and being poisoned, Gu Tingshu had no strength left, but he still gritted his teeth to hold on.
After being chased all the way into this cave, this was all that was left. Now both of them were suppressed by each other, it was up to them to see whose perseverance lasted longer.
Mu Chengze was lying on the ground beside him, looking at the two people balancing each other, and wanted to step forward to help, but he couldn't even move a finger.
After being forced into this miasma forest for more than ten days, the antidote pills on his body have long been used up. He was stabbed by a poisonous arrow two days ago. It took all his strength to hold on until now.
I thought it would be easy to search for evidence, but I didn't expect that the private soldiers' story was a scam from beginning to end.
The chess game that had been laid out for so long was just to lure the two of them into the game.
I have to say that the opponent is really brave, resourceful and patient. This game of chess is really big enough.
Gu Tingshu was pressed to the ground with a dagger across his throat. As long as his dagger was slightly loosened, the dagger would cause him to bleed three feet on the spot.
But being chased for days took too much of his strength, and the opponent was a carefully trained dead soldier. He had been holding on for so long, and his resistance gradually weakened.
The dagger on his throat got a little closer as he relaxed, and he could already feel the warm blood flowing out.
The heavy rain covered up all their whereabouts. They were hard to find once they entered the depths, and now they were even more difficult to find.
When I came here, I said I would play chess with her again when I went back, and I also said I would give her three sons, but now I am afraid I will break my promise.
But she probably wouldn't remember this. She couldn't find her for many days, and Shi, who couldn't wait for the news, must have sent her back to Jiangzhou.
She hasn't been back for many years, and she must be overjoyed now. She may have forgotten her promise long ago.
While he was deep in thought, the dagger took another step forward, and Gu Tingshu's already bloodless lips now turned even pale.
The energy in his body had been exhausted, and just when he was about to hide his life, the person on his body suddenly vibrated, as if all the energy in his body had been suddenly taken away, and his body went limp in an instant.
He saw the right moment, clasped the opponent's wrist with a backhand, and the dagger that was supposed to kill him instantly cut open the opponent's artery.
Warm blood sprayed on his face. He pushed away the person who fell on him and saw the weak figure standing not far away.
Shen Qiqi raised her hands, and there were layers of skin scratched on them. The gem dagger that was originally given to her to play with was now inserted into the enemy's back.
Her half-open mouth was shaking in fear, veins popped out on her neck, and her trembling body was teetering.
She had been drenched in the rain for a long time and was frightened by what had just happened. She opened her eyes wide and her tears rolled down like a bursting dam.
"Biao, Biao, cousin..."
She shouted tremblingly, and when she saw Gu Tingshu standing up and walking towards her, she dared to release all her strength and fell down limply.
Gu Tingshu caught her with one quick step. Seeing that she was so weak that she could hardly breathe, he hurriedly took her aside and took off his coat to cover her.
Although the pain in her body kept reminding her that this was not an illusion, Shen Qiqi still couldn't believe that she had really found him.
She held the corners of Gu Tingshu's clothes with both hands, and did not dare to close her eyes, for fear that if she closed them, the other person would disappear.
Mu Chengze, who had witnessed everything, was lying on the ground and couldn't tell what he was feeling.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the girl who was so weak that a gust of wind could blow her away did not hesitate to draw the dagger when he saw Ashu in danger.
She was obviously so weak when she appeared that she would fall over at any moment, but the moment she struck, she generated tremendous energy and completely inserted the dagger.
She was not only brave, but also extremely smart. During the entire process, including the attack, she gritted her teeth and made no sound, just to be able to hit the target with one hit.
Such a girl broke my own understanding of her. I originally thought that she was just a flower that needed care from others, but I didn't realize that she was a vine that was blocked from the sun.
Once this kind of vine sees light, it will grow crazily, growing around the tree in search of more light.
Ashu is willing to sacrifice his life for him and get such a beauty. How lucky is Ashu in his entire life!
"Why are you here?"
Gu Tingshu wanted to put Shen Qiqi away, but she held on to her clothes and refused to let go. He had no choice but to hold her and light the fire.
It was raining heavily outside, and the rising smoke would be dispersed by the rain. At this time, he was not worried about attracting people.
I didn't know what lived in the cave before. In addition to some small dead trees, there were piles of hay.
Gu Tingshu lit a fire and then went to check the injuries on her body.
"Eleven said my cousin was in danger, so I came."
With the firelight illuminating him, Shen Qiqi saw his embarrassed appearance at this time. She moved her body and slowly moved to the side, leaning against the stone wall to catch her breath.
The girl who was originally very beautiful now has numerous cuts on her face, and there is not a single piece of intact skin on her body.
"Do you still have the sachet?"
Gu Tingshu tore off a piece of skin and bandaged the wound on his neck first.
As he spoke, he checked the injury on his neck. The warm breath blew onto his neck, and Shen Qiqi couldn't help but tremble.
"Bring it with you."
She replied weakly and wanted to get it, but when she raised her hand, she realized that her palm was badly injured.
Knowing that she was inconvenient now, Gu Tingshu glanced at her, whispered "Sorry", and reached for her arms.
He took out the sachet and poured out the contents.
The finger-sized porcelain bottle had a crack and the lid had rolled aside.
Although the sachet was soaked, the pills inside had escaped the rain in the porcelain bottle.
Two small pills lay in the palm of his hand. Gu Tingshu looked at Shen Qiqi, and then moved his eyes to Mu Chengze, who had fallen asleep peacefully.
In the current state of the prince, if he does not take Bai Du Pill, he will definitely not be able to survive tomorrow.
Although he has been poisoned for many days, he can still survive for a few more days, but if he does not detoxify and the poisonous gas wanders in his body, he will have no luck.
If it were normal, he would never hesitate, but if he doesn't eat now, if he encounters the rebels, they will definitely die.
Seeing that he was still holding the pills, Shen Qiqi blinked and suddenly felt blessed.
She weakly raised her hand, picked up a pill and put it into Gu Tingshu's mouth.
"Don't worry, cousin. Qi Qi knows the importance and won't get into trouble with my cousin because of this."
The prince must be rescued, and he has the heavy responsibility of taking them out. The poison on his body must be resolved.
She is not a petty person, she still knows what is important and what is important.
"Shen Qi..."
"Eat quickly, Qi Qi is still waiting for my cousin to take Qi Qi home together."
