Fire and black smoke.
The fire was released from the outside. It was obvious that the Empress Dowager wanted to kill Si Wuyan directly, but what did he do to make the Empress Dowager give up on killing him and start a fire from the outside?
Gong Yi Mo arrived at the banquet hall and hurriedly glanced around. She found a lot of dead people in the hall, including his and the Empress Dowager's people. There were also a few bottles and jars on the ground. She understood that Si Wuyan must have spilled the poison at the critical moment. Since no one could get close to him, the Empress Dowager decided to burn him to death!
However, her gaze swept past them, especially the burnt corpse that had stopped for a few seconds. These people were not him! He might still be alive!
But the surrounding flames and poisonous smoke were everywhere. Even if he was still alive, where could he be?
She was too careless!
GongYimo anxiously looked around and scolded herself. Her previous plots had gone too smoothly, so she did not expect the Empress Dowager to have such a trick up her sleeve. This was really a Hongmen Banquet!
Her eyes were filled with fire! She was in a daze for a moment!
It was too similar! In her previous life, she broke into the Yu Qi Imperial Palace and set fire everywhere. He was waiting for her in the Hidden Dragon Palace …
Was he waiting for her as well?
Based on her memory, she found the Empress Dowager's bedroom. This was the place where Si Wuyan committed suicide in her previous life. The floor was covered with pearls, agate, and jade, but he was not there! He was not here either!
Gong Yi Mo rushed to the courtyard again. Her clothes were burned, and she cut them off with her backhand.
Looking around, the entire courtyard was covered in black smoke. It was broad daylight, but she felt like she was in hell. The sky was dark red and there was no light. She could not tell the direction!
The later she found Si Wuyan, the more likely he was to die. GongYimo was burning with anxiety. Just as she was about to rush into the opposite fire building, she suddenly saw a large water tank in the corner!
Unknowingly, she walked over. There were flames all around her. She could walk in them, but Si Wuyan could not. If he was really in the water …
This water tank was very big, and there was moss at the bottom of the tank. Obviously, it had not been moved for a long time.
GongYimo walked closer step by step. She was a little nervous. If Si Wuyan wasn't here, she really didn't know where to find him alive …
Finally, she saw layers of scattered black hair floating on the water.
"Si Wuyan!"
She quickly reached out and wanted to pull him out, but when he heard the sound, he moved first!
He slowly raised his head and gradually emerged from the water. First, it was his hair, then his pale neck, and his black and red robes …
That pair of beautiful and narrow eyes were usually magnificent and charming, but now they were a little empty. He stared at GongYimo without blinking, as if he didn't know her.
Water droplets kept rolling down his face, making him look like a newborn fairy in the water.
GongYimo finally heaved a sigh of relief!
Great, she had found him!
Because in the courtyard, although the disgust was strong, it was not enough to kill because it was spacious. However, the surrounding buildings were burning fiercely, and the situation was getting worse! GongYimo could still stumble her way in just now, but it would be hard to say if the fire continued.
Moreover, the weather was too dry. If the trees and flowers around them were burned, they wouldn't be able to escape even if they wanted to! She had to hurry!
GongYimo wanted to pull him out of the water and think of a way to escape!
"Aren't you curious?" He suddenly asked.
GongYimo was in a hurry, so she didn't have the mood to care about what he was talking about! He continued to speak.
"Aren't you curious why I wasn't killed directly?"
GongYimo was racking her brains to think of a way to escape. It was not practical to fly out with a person, but it was also very dangerous to go out through a completely burning building. She had just rushed here and was very careful. Her clothes were also burned … So what should she do?
Seeing that GongYimo didn't answer him, Si Wuyan was a bit dissatisfied, "You still haven't answered me!"
GongYimo turned around and was a bit impatient. But because he stood up, she found that the water in the vat was bright red! He was injured!
She turned Si Wuyan around and found that there was a deep wound on his back. If he hadn't applied medicine in time, it would have been more serious! But he had nowhere to hide, so he hid in the water vat. The medicine dissolved in the water and the wound started to bleed again.
GongYimo made a prompt decision. She tore off her inner skirt and sprinkled the medicine on it before tying it around his waist. Everything could wait until they got out!
Just as she was doing this, Si Wuyan suddenly chuckled with his back facing her.
"It's no use. There's poison on the knife. My medicine can only suppress the poison temporarily. Maybe this second or the next second, I'll die."
GongYimo thought, No wonder the Empress Dowager didn't directly kill him. So she thought that he would definitely die after being poisoned?
As if reading her thoughts, Si Wuyan continued, "Why wouldn't she want to kill me? At that time, I sprinkled all the poison on me and no one could get close to me. That woman didn't want to be entangled with me, so she took the people who didn't die and left, then set the fire. "
GongYimo tied a knot on the cloth and said in a low voice, "We'll talk about it when we get out! You're so smart. You'll definitely be able to concoct the antidote before you die! "
Si Wuyan shook his head, "It's too late …"
He could feel his limbs turning cold and stiff. He didn't have any medicine in his hands. Soon, even if he didn't die in the fire, he would die from the poison.
In a moment of desperation, GongYimo didn't care so much. She took out all the medicine from her space. These medicine were all tributes. Could it be that not a single one of them was useless?
Si Wuyan seemed to be deeply poisoned. Seeing her take out so many things, he only tilted his head and didn't say a word. Then he picked up one of the bottles. The unique smell of the Recover Pill assaulted his senses. Not knowing why, he didn't move for a long time.
"Previously, I was cut by a knife and almost died. But I crawled into her room and used the remaining medicine to concoct some antidote. At that time, the poison and medicine mixed together and it was very painful. I was thinking, if someone saved me at this time, I would confer him a high official and enjoy the glory, splendor, wealth and rank … Unfortunately, there wasn't any …"
No one came to save him.
GongYimo was originally anxious. But seeing his face getting paler and paler, and his eyes dim, it was obvious that he had already decided to die! It seemed that these medicine were secondary. He gave up on it. Was there really no hope?
GongYimo didn't talk nonsense. She frowned and quickly stuffed the medicine back into her clothes. Just as she was about to say something, he continued.
"Later on, there was a raging fire outside and I was trapped inside … Actually, I went out once. But when I held the door and walked out, what awaited me was a long spear."
Si Wuyan parted his black hair. GongYimo saw that there was a bloody hole on his shoulder. Because he was wearing black and red clothes, the wound wasn't obvious. But it was obvious that the other party had deliberately wanted to kill him. The stab was very deep.
GongYimo's eyes darkened. Like earlier, she quickly applied medicine on his shoulder. She could imagine that he had gone through a near-death experience to appear at the door, only to be met with a knife.
