"It's a knife wound."
Yao Sheng smiled and did not avoid her hand.
He was very calm, as if he was not the one who was hurt.
"It's so deep that the bone can be seen, and the wound is not easy to heal. If not, I'm afraid it wouldn't have left a scar. "
Yao Sheng also touched his face, but his tone didn't change at all.
Except for Xiu, the people around Lin Mengya all felt a little strange.
In the world, except for him, no one would be willing to let their face become like this.
Lin Mengya was even more puzzled. From the moment she touched Yao Sheng's wound, she could feel the residue of the medicine in his skin and flesh.
The medicine was slightly corrosive. Usually, it would only make the skin red and swollen, and sensitive people would feel a slight ulceration.
But if it was smeared on the wound, it would really ruin his face.
But something was wrong. Lin Mengya carefully stared at Yao Sheng's skin in front of her.
This guy's recovery ability could be called abnormal.
"Ahem, lass, if you stare at his face like this, someone will be jealous."
Qinghu cleared his throat and looked in a certain direction.
Lin Mengya immediately understood and looked away.
Just now, her behavior seemed to be flirting with Childe Yao.
Sure enough, even under the cover of the wound, Yao Sheng, who was not as thick-skinned as them, slightly avoided her eyes.
Ordinary women would feel scared when they saw his face. No one was like Miss He Lan, who actually … actually stared at him for a long time.
The atmosphere was very awkward.
"I say, is your recovery ability innate?"
Fortunately, Lin Mengya was very thick-skinned, and the speed at which she changed the topic was frightening.
Yao Sheng was stunned, and then a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It's not innate, but it's almost the same. Since I was born, I grew up soaked in medicine. Although the medicine can make me immune to all kinds of poisons, it can also make my body as strong as an ox. But at the same time, it made me look neither like a human nor a ghost. "
It sounded like a sad story.
Lin Mengya had no intention to dig into his sore spot, but the matter was too strange. In order to clear up the doubts in her heart, she could only choose a few key questions to ask.
"Who modified your body?"
Yao Sheng's gaze trembled, but he still answered.
"His name is Mu Tianxuan, the leader of the Candle Dragon Association."
She exchanged a look with Qinghu and got his affirmation.
Lin Mengya suddenly felt that she was getting closer to the truth.
"Why is he doing this?"
Yao Sheng sighed and shook his head dejectedly.
"I don't know either. Because my identity is a bit special, Mu Tianxuan won't reveal too many things to me."
Lin Mengya was a little disappointed, but it didn't stop her from guessing.
"Can this potion allow one to stay young forever and regain one's youth?"
Although her question was a little ridiculous, Yao Sheng nodded solemnly and looked at her seriously.
"Not only that, but it can also regenerate bones and accelerate the healing of wounds."
Lin Mengya felt that something was about to come out. All along, her premonition seemed to be confirmed.
"Are you worthy? What was the prescription? If we succeed, we can definitely make a lot of money! "
The fiery gaze made Yao Sheng feel somewhat at a loss as to what to do.
He looked at Qinghu, who was behind her, with a pleading look on his face.
This was different from what Xiu had said. Why did he always feel that the woman in front of him was far more active than he could bear?
"Get used to it, get used to it."
Qinghu could only try his best to comfort Yao Sheng's wounded heart while reprimanding Lin Mengya helplessly.
"What are you talking about? But this is a good idea. Are you worthy, Childe Yao?"
Yao Sheng held a mouthful of blood in his mouth and there seemed to be hot tears in his eyes.
Both of them were poisonous!
After being interrupted by Lin Mengya, Yao Sheng's tense mood also eased a lot.
Lin Mengya asked a few more questions, and he also contributed all he could say.
The inner room was a little quiet. She, who had been asking questions just now, was now immersed in her own world.
In the past, she had suspected that what the chief was pursuing was probably immortality.
Immortality was the hope of every person in power.
Who didn't want to enjoy eternal wealth, transcend the reincarnation of time, and only pursue their inner desires?
For thousands of years, this unrealistic dream had influenced generations of emperors, generals, and ministers.
It made them sink and disappear in the pursuit, and finally brought endless regret to the world.
But Lin Mengya knew better than anyone that there was no immortality in this world.
Even time would have a place to disappear, let alone humans who could never control time.
Immortality was a little ridiculous.
"Are you the descendant of the King of Ten Thousand Gu?"
Lin Mengya asked. Yao Sheng shook his head and then nodded.
"Yes, but who knows whether I am or not?"
This was true. Without the help of modern medicine, it was indeed difficult to determine whether Yao Sheng's ancestor was the King of Ten Thousand Gu.
But his face, in fact, did not look like it.
There were so many people with similar stories, so it was not strange.
Lin Mengya knocked on the table with a strange look.
"Why, did you think of something?"
Qinghu knew her best. He knew that once she showed this expression, it meant that she had a bad guess.
"Your Yao Family … I mean the whole Yao Family, is it because of you that you have fallen into such a state?"
Yao Sheng, who was calm just now, could not help but tremble.
Xiu also clenched her fists, and her little face was a little pale.
Some things, even she could not touch, were wounds.
Sister Lin, she …
"Sister Lin, please don't talk nonsense! Brother Sheng, he … he … "
"Now that things have come to this, what else is there to hide?"
His face, which was supposed to be handsome, was gray and pale at this moment.
Looking at his hand, Yao Sheng's heart was full of bitterness.
"Miss Lin, the reason why I am honest with you is not only because you are Xiu's trusted person, but also because I hope to clear up the misunderstanding between us. Because you and I have our own responsibilities. So I hope you will not stop me, and I will not stop you. "
Yao Sheng, who had been gentle and polite to Lin Mengya just a moment ago, suddenly became sharp at this moment.
He was still him. Although he looked gentle, there was an inviolable pressure between his eyebrows.
Lin Mengya suddenly smiled, sat up straight, and restrained all her frivolity.
She knew it. How could a person like Yao Sheng be a pitiful person who would be forced to the point of being unable to retaliate?
However, there were two faces.
"Childe Yao, please say it. Although I am not a very smart person, I am not stupid. I naturally know what to say and what to do. Childe Yao, you have answered my doubts, and I will return the favor. "
They faced each other, and they were evenly matched.
Although one was sick and the other was pregnant, their momentum was equal, and no one was at a disadvantage.
"Do you know why I am here?"
Yao Sheng's tone was not surprised. Seeing that the other party nodded slightly, his eyes suddenly became a little deep.
Even Xiu was not completely clear about what he was going to do.
The woman in front of him had only met him once in the Council Hall. How could she know him so well?
Yes, he had this feeling.
The woman in front of him had a heavy body, and she was trapped in the deep palace, unable to get out. But when he saw her in the small courtyard for the first time, he had a feeling that he was seen through.
This person was definitely not simple, and she might be the key person who could affect his victory.
"You want to completely destroy the Yao Family — no, or to say, save them. You can do it alone, but it is not as fast as my method. In fact, we can reach the same goal by different means, but I am one step ahead of you. Since this is the case, I hope we can help each other and get along well. If you have scruples, we can also mind our own business. But I have one thing to say first. It is better for you to let go of what happened in your last life. I know this is not fair to you, but only the strong can define fairness in the world. You are not weak, but I am a little stronger than you. "
Her words were overbearing.
But Yao Sheng could not help feeling secretly shocked.
Who exactly was this woman?
Those secrets that he had painstakingly hidden for more than twenty years, how could she easily find out about them?
For a moment, he even wondered if he had told Lin Mengya everything one day without realizing it.
But he knew that no one could have told her all these.
After all, those who knew about it would never betray him.
After a pause, Yao Sheng clenched his fists quietly. When he was about to say something to her, he saw her smile again.
She was as beautiful as summer flowers, and her smile was enough to amaze the world.
"But I know you won't do this. So, what I said just now was just a reminder to you. Childe Yao, please don't blame me. "
Yao Sheng was stunned, and at that moment, he suddenly came to his senses.
In fact, he had been in the palm of her hand all the time.
She had already seen through everything about him. All the questions were just to compare with him.
Or, she was just making fun of him.
He should be angry, should be angry. However, she was also so unfathomable. She was mysterious and intelligent.
Anger was always accompanied by fear.
When one was truly faced with fear that could dominate everything, anger was no longer as important.
Therefore, he didn't show any signs of getting angry.
Because what she said was right. She had an absolute advantage over him.
He did not expect that after so many years, he actually tasted the feeling of being weak again.
But the woman in front of him did not crush him mercilessly, nor did she tear up his dignity and order him around.
He was a little confused and a little curious.
