164. Suddenly a drop in the ocean(1/3)
The moment Chu Yunqing regained consciousness, everyone in the dark was startled, their energy was revealed, and their own position was also exposed.
He didn't hesitate at all, and jumped over in a flash.
The tall figure fell from the sky, and everyone hiding among the grass and trees screamed and panicked, and their first reaction was to run.
Chu Yunqing snorted coldly, flicked his arms, and his true energy surged, creating a strong wind and knocking these people away.
Poof! The sound of vomiting blood was endless, and he even punched harder, trying to kill it all.
"Gang Leader Chu, please be merciful, it's me!"
"That's my friend!"
Chu Yunqing heard this voice that was the same as the voice of help just now. His eyes flashed and he let these two people go. As for the others, he punched them to death.
"Are you a grass-headed snake?" Chu Yunqing looked at the hooded middle-aged man in front of him and saw his green chin.
This outfit and appearance are really impressive.
As for the other person next to him, he looked frightened and looked at the grass-headed snake with great joy.
"Why do you want to kill me?" Chu Yunqing said directly.
"It's the prince." The grass-headed snake said.
Chu Yunqing understood immediately that the other party had already known that he wanted to kill Si Yunzhao, and had arranged for men to intercept him on the way.
But this is the palace, and such a level of action may have attracted the attention of those powerful experts. But no one has come yet, either before or now.
Chu Yunqing frowned, his face suddenly changed, and he vomited blood.
The blood turned black, and when he spat it out on the ground, it corroded the grass.
"This is poison." The grass-headed snake said, took out a porcelain bottle from his body and handed it over.
Chu Yunqing looked at the antidote and recalled the scene in Taiyuan Prefecture when Yan Hongran was poisoned and he went to seek the antidote but was almost killed.
He gritted his teeth and took it heavily.
The grass-headed snake also sighed for a moment, "We have different stances, and we have no choice but to act. I hope that Gang Leader Chu will forgive me."
Chu Yunqing took the antidote and asked, "Then why did you save me just now?"
The grass-headed snake was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly, "Perhaps he feels that Gang Leader Chu should not die."
Chu Yunqing looked confused.
"You are a good person and can do more things." The grass-headed snake said: "Although I don't know why you want to kill the prince, I think there is always a reason. Some things in 'Jianghu' are indeed despicable.
.”
He himself couldn't tell the specific reason. Perhaps it was because they both came from Taiyuan Prefecture, and with Taiyuan Prefecture having such a good man in and out of the palace, he couldn't bear to be an accomplice in killing him through such despicable means.
The grass-headed snake shook his head and sighed.
Chu Yunqing nodded, put away the porcelain bottle in his hand, and walked away.
"See you later," he said.
The grass-headed snake smiled. He had decided not to stay in the capital anymore and would go back to southern Xinjiang.
The friend next to him sighed and patted his arm.
…
The prince's palace is not far ahead. Along the way, he has not encountered any traps or interceptions.
Chu Yunqing took a deep breath, concealed his figure, and entered quietly.
The palace was brightly lit, and there were many eunuchs and maids walking around. Although it was late at night, it was as busy as daytime.
Chu Yunqing knocked out the palace guards where necessary and sneaked inside.
Under the corridor, Chu Yunqing leaned against the wall, and suddenly stopped when he was about to turn around.
"You're finally here." There was a lot of complexity in the soft voice.
Chu Yunqing sensed the opponent's energy and walked out.
There was no one around the side hall. In the quiet corridor, the two people looked at each other.
"You asked her to send the message to me." Chu Yunqing said in a complicated tone.
"It's me, did you guess it before?"
"I dare not guess." Chu Yunqing said.
Gu Meishu laughed, her eyebrows arched.
Chu Yunqing was silent for a moment, "Aren't you from the prince?"
"Yes, but the sect has a choice, what can I do?" Gu Meishu chuckled.
"You don't seem like someone who would compromise."
"I grew up in Zhiyun Tower since I was a child. It was the sect that took me in."
"But what do you think?" Chu Yunqing frowned.
"That little girl should have told you about the current situation." Gu Meishu said, "Even if I weren't there, there would still be others in the sect. Besides, I don't want to embarrass the master."
Chu Yunqing took a deep breath and asked, "So, you want to stop me from killing Si Yunzhao?"
"Yeah." Gu Meishu nodded lightly.
Chu Yunqing gritted his teeth.
At this time, Gu Meishu's eyes suddenly moved, and her hands in her sleeves began to twist and knead.
Chu Yunqing felt the changes in the energy around him, and a dull pressure suddenly came over.
"Since you and I have made our choice, let's take action." Gu Meishu said.
Chu Yunqing remained motionless.
"Stop being such a passionate person." Gu Meishu's tone became colder, "If you don't kill me, I will kill you."
Chu Yunqing clenched his fist tightly.
Gu Meishu scolded lightly, waved her hands, and a strange formation appeared under Chu Yunqing's feet. The pattern slowly rotated, and the energy of heaven and earth became heavier and heavier, blocking the large points all over his body that were invading him.
Chu Yunqing exerted force with both fists, and the energy and blood all over his body surged, and the power of the formation that had enveloped him began to shake.
At this time, Gu Meishu stepped on Qi Men, and in an instant she was in front of him and slapped him away with her palm.
Chu Yunqing just dodged sideways and easily dodged, but Gu Meishu's palm was a false move. When the two of them passed each other, he saw a slight smile passing by the corner of her mouth.
Chu Yunqing frowned and subconsciously touched his body.
Over there, Gu Meishu had appeared behind him, holding a porcelain bottle in his hand.
Chu Yunqing's pupils shrank, that was... the antidote given to him by Grass-Headed Snake before.
Gu Meishu took off the cork with a flick of her thumb.
"You?" Chu Yunqing was confused.
"I don't want to embarrass you." Gu Meishu chuckled and drank the remaining antidote in the porcelain bottle.
The porcelain bottle fell to the ground, she staggered back a few steps, and leaned against the pillar.
Chu Yunqing opened his mouth, his eyes were so unbelievable. What was an antidote to him was a life-threatening poison to Gu Meishu.
He stepped forward suddenly and hugged Gu Meishu who was about to fall.
Gu Meishu's face was pale at this time, blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and her breath became perceptibly lighter.
Chu Yunqing channeled his true energy and wanted to force poison into her.
"It's useless." Gu Meishu gently pressed his palm.
"Grass-headed snake!" Chu Yunqing gritted his teeth and said.
He could feel the powerlessness of the infuriating energy. There was no trace of that strange poison, and his infuriating energy quickly dissipated like snow meeting the scorching sun.
"I asked him to do it." Gu Meishu smiled slightly, "Did you not think of it either?"
"Why?" Chu Yunqing asked confused.
Seeing the sadness on his face, Gu Meishu slowly raised her hand and touched his cheek.
"Who is smarter, Xiaozhou or me?" she asked.
Chu Yunqing was stunned.
"You have your moral principles, and I also have my own difficulties. If not, how can you fulfill your moral principles?" Gu Meishu said softly, "I just want to ask, do you have any place for me in your heart?"
Chu Yunqing's lips moved, and pain appeared in his eyes.
"It's so nice to meet you." Gu Meishu said, the look in her eyes dimmed, and her palms dropped sadly.
Chu Yunqing grabbed her hand.
"Gu Meishu, Gu Meishu!" He shouted over and over again, but all he got was eternal silence.
