The bitter and warm medicine meandered down her throat.
When it entered her abdomen, Gu Die's body also felt a little warm.
"Go to bed early. After drinking this medicine, you'll be fine soon."
Gu Xing looked at Gu Die, who had begun to feel sleepy, and a complicated look flashed across his eyes.
Gu Die nodded and couldn't care about anything else.
The heavy drowsiness gradually swept over her.
Looking at his senior sister, who was already sleeping soundly in the quilt, Gu Xing still showed a look of hesitation.
"You're really cruel and unscrupulous. You've already found a scapegoat so quickly. Don't worry, people like you are very suitable to work for us. "
A voice that was neither male nor female suddenly came from the air.
Gu Xing immediately looked at the door defensively and turned sideways. He saw Gu Die, who was defenseless.
"You promised me that as long as I helped you, you would definitely let my senior sister go!"
Gu Xing's suppressed voice could not erase the eagerness in his tone.
He had grown up with his senior sister since he was a child. However, his senior sister's identity was different from his.
Once the other party really put all the blame for the plague on him, he would have no choice but to die.
However, if it was his senior sister, with the reputation of their sect, this matter would definitely be suppressed.
After all, his master only had his senior sister as his daughter.
He didn't want to be muddle-headed and become someone else's scapegoat!
"Don't worry, of course I won't kill her. After all, with her identity, she's the most suitable candidate to settle this storm for us. Didn't you send the medicine bag to Princess Yu? I'm afraid that with her ability, she has already seen through the mystery hidden in it. This time, I still have to thank you. If it weren't for the formula of the Soul-eater Ghost Bone Powder that you provided, I'm afraid we wouldn't have succeeded until now. "
Layers of black muslin shrouded a slightly bloated figure.
The person's facial features were hidden under the black bamboo hat, so no one could recognize the identity of the person in front of them.
At this moment, this person quietly walked to Gu Die's bed.
Although Gu Xing was on guard against the other party, he had to obey the other party's order because his weakness was in the other party's hands.
"I'll say it again. You cheated me of this formula! I didn't give it to you! "
Gritting his teeth and growling, Gu Xing's eyes were full of horror.
He was afraid, truly afraid.
Back then, he had only stolen his master's prescription to sell in exchange for some money.
Unexpectedly, after seeing the tragic situation within a thousand miles of the Cloud State, Gu Xing was always afraid that the innocent people who died tragically would turn into ghosts and come to claim his life.
But in the end, people were still greedy for life and afraid of death. That was why he took one wrong step, and every step after that was wrong.
Now, he even wanted to push all the blame onto his Senior Sister who doted on him the most.
But he had to live! He had to survive at all costs!
"Hahaha, you really are shameless. Yes, we tricked him into leaving. We lied to you and said that this prescription was harmless, so you … "
"Enough!"
Gu Xing, who was on the verge of collapse, suddenly roared and interrupted the man in black.
He didn't want to listen anymore. So what if they were lying to him?
Those people were already dead. They could only blame themselves for being unlucky and had no one else to blame!
"Put this on your Senior Martial Sister. If I were you, I might consider being your master's son-in-law. At that time, I'm afraid that even your master will protect you. "
The man in black continued to tease him, but he took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve.
Gu Xing's face was stiff, but he still insisted and stood between his Senior Sister and the man in black.
With trembling hands, he put the cloth bag into his Senior Sister's bag.
Even though he had committed an unforgivable crime, there were some things he would never do.
"You can go now."
After doing all this, Gu Xing looked a little weak.
The man in black did not continue to mock him. After confirming that the small cloth bag was indeed in Gu Die's bag, he left.
As soon as he left, Gu Xing suddenly collapsed to the ground as if he could no longer hold on.
On his face, there was a frightened expression, but in the end, it turned into ruthlessness.
He was right! Everyone knew how to protect themselves. Moreover, he did not do anything else to let his Senior Sister down.
Therefore, he did not have to feel guilty anymore. Anyway, this was a secret that no one would find out.
However, Gu Xing did not realize that from the day his hands were stained with blood, there was no possibility for him to get out of it.
With the poison sample provided by Lin Mengya, his teacher's research had become extremely smooth.
Lin Mengya also knew that she could not disturb him at this time.
In order to divert everyone's attention, she decided to follow the rescue troops at the front line to the nearby towns to search for patients and survivors.
At first, of course, Long Tianhao did not agree.
However, he could not resist Lin Mengya's strong arguments and intimacy. Nevertheless, he sent her the most elite personal guards.
Moreover, he asked her to only command from the rear and not to rush to the front.
Lin Mengya, who had no guts, certainly obeyed such an overbearing and unnegotiable request.
Ahem, she was a smart person. Naturally, she knew the truth of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
However, from the moment Lin Mengya went out with the personal guards, she knew how difficult it was to obey Long Tianhao on the surface but oppose him in secret.
It was only an hour's journey to Huaiyuan County, which was the nearest town, but it took her nearly two and a half hours to get there with the protection of the personal guards and the stable driving of the coachman.
During this period, if Lin Mengya had not protested three times and even almost gone mad with anger at the last time, they would have been halfway there.
Although Lin Mengya was angry, they were only carrying out the fascist's order after all.
She pouted and was angry for a long time. In the end, she could only sigh faintly. That was all.
"Your Highness, we have arrived at Huaiyuan County. It has been confirmed that there is no one in the county. Do you still want to come down and have a look?"
Not being angry did not mean that she would obediently obey.
She got out of the carriage with a straight face and told the personal guards with her actions that she had hands, feet, and eyes, and she would go and have a look in person.
The personal guards had naturally been prepared for the princess's temper.
They surrounded her from all sides and escorted her into the county town cautiously.
As soon as she stepped into the street, Lin Mengya couldn't help but gasp.
In the past, she thought that the scenes on TV where there were starving people on the road and there was no one within a thousand miles were just people's imagination.
Human beings were the most fragile but also the most tenacious race.
No matter how bad the environment was, there would always be people who would find ways to survive.
However, the small Huaiyuan Town, which had fertile land and beautiful water resources, was lifeless at this moment.
It was not quiet, but really dead silence.
There was no sign of life in this place.
The corpses here had been preliminarily dealt with.
However, some corpses that had not been cleaned in time or had not been completely burned showed a strange and miserable death at this moment.
Those charcoal-like remains might have been a living, flesh-and-blood person a few months ago.
As she walked, her heart was already in awe.
No wonder her father once said that he hated corrupt officials who were greedy for disaster relief money the most.
Civilians had suffered heavy casualties and were struggling between death and survival. However, in the eyes of some people, this was a good opportunity to make money.
Walking on the main road of Huaiyuan County silently, Lin Mengya felt that her heart was being boiled in a pot of oil in the hell due to the faint rancid and bloody smell in the air.
"Have you searched all the places? Are you sure there are no survivors? "
Lin Mengya asked loudly. The soldiers in charge of the search immediately replied that they were sure there were no survivors.
This was the news that Lin Mengya didn't want to see or hear the most.
Looking around, Lin Mengya felt that these people might not be willing to search carefully.
After all, a little carelessness might lead to a plague. Of course, no one would go to a secret place.
Thinking of this, Lin Mengya came up with a plan.
"Help me find some gongs and drums. Then, hit them hard everywhere in the town and shout that we're the rescue team sent by the imperial court. Remember, no matter if it's the main road or the small road, we'll shout. "
In such a quiet town, the sound would definitely travel very far.
Humans would generally be able to catch this type of sound. Therefore, this could not only keep the soldiers away from danger, but also let the survivors hear the sound of hope.
Lin Mengya's request was immediately carried out by the rescue soldiers.
In an instant, the noisy sound of gongs resounded through the entire Huaiyuan Town.
Standing in the center of the town, Lin Mengya waited anxiously and expectantly.
She hoped that the survivors hiding in secluded places would hear the news of rescue.
Time passed by second after second.
The soldiers had almost run all the streets and alleys in the town. Their voices were a little hoarse.
However, Princess Yu was still waiting for them without any discouragement. She even took out the water and cakes prepared for her in the carriage and distributed them to them.
Immediately, everyone cheered up and kept shuttling through the streets.
After a long time, just when Lin Mengya was feeling a little discouraged, a skinny figure slowly appeared in front of everyone.
"Help … help me …"
It was a very old man. Lin Mengya led her guards to greet him.
She found that although the man was thin and weak, he was in good spirits.
