Chapter 150: Fallen Pear Flower Moon and West (1)

When it was completely dark, black smoke came out of the room, mixed with the smell of realgar, which made people squint their eyes.
Brother Zhao frowned and cursed in a low voice: "What the is this guy?" He said to me, "I'll go in and have a look, you are here."
I uttered an "um", the pain in my feet was numb at this time, but a slight movement would bring a piercing pain. I was weak, and I just felt dizzy. Seeing Brother Zhao entered, but didn't even have the strength to speak, I leaned on the pillar and waited for them to catch the snake. Xu was so tired, before I knew it, I fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took, I opened my eyes, and at this time, the stars are adorned in the sky, like the brightest gems. I glanced into the dark room, nothing happened.
I tried to call out: "Brother Zhao".
The answer to me was nothing but appalling silence.
I looked around, and the abandoned concubines from Lenggong had probably returned to their house, and there was no one in the courtyard at this time.
I tried to shout again: "Liu San". Still no one responded.
Did they have caught the snake and went back for business?
I thought this in my heart, but there was still a constant black smoke coming out of the room, not thin, but getting thicker.
My heart suddenly hangs. Could it be... I have the worst thoughts, are they both killed by snakes?
Suddenly, I felt a chill in my back, and I couldn't feel the pain in my feet. I tried to sit up straight, hesitating to climb in and take a look.
At this moment, a figure came out of the thick smoke.
I held my breath, expecting and panicking. The figure became clearer and clearer, but the speed was slow. When he showed up completely, I felt like thunder exploded above my head, and I trembled.
Liu San, with a grinning smile on his face, like a ghost. He dragged a person in his hand, like a broken pocket, it was Brother Zhao. He has a net bag in his other hand, still wriggling.
"Let me catch the snake? Humph! See who was caught in the end!" Liu San walked towards me triumphantly and glanced contemptuously at Brother Zhao, who was dragging his hand. As soon as he loosened his hand, Brother Zhao knocked to the ground. But still motionless. I looked through the starlight like fireflies and saw that Brother Zhao's face was bloodstained, and it was already blue and white at this time.
I looked up in surprise, Liu San's gaze fell on me, the desire in it was gone, instead, it was resentment.
"I knew I would do you as soon as I came in, and it took so much work." Liu San said, spitting at me, and the smelly phlegm fell on my skirt, and I almost vomited.
"Forget it, I'm not in the mood to play with you anymore." A fierce color flashed in his eyes, and he reached out to pull my skirt.
"If you did something to me today, I will commit suicide immediately and be a ghost, and I will not let you go!" I looked at him, and my gaze fell on his eyes like a sharp knife, and my tone became that one unconsciously. The lord of the harem is full of solemnity and oppression. My speech rate is very slow, almost every word. Every time I say a word, the pressure in my eyes is deeper. In the end, I just feel that my voice is like three or nine days of ice, without a trace of temperature, let alone. A little bit of affection. It was like floating out of Jiuyoudi Mansion.
Liu San seemed shocked by my tone, a look of fear appeared on his face. I continued: "Just now, the attitude of the noble person to me, I think you can guess that I used to have an extraordinary status, I had a brother outside, and my status was noble. If I suicide because of you, let alone the noble person will not let you go. Any one of my brothers wants to make you and your family life worse than death, and it will not be much harder than squeezing an ant."
I Jiejie smiled and said, "Trust me, if you do something to me, in the second half of your life, what you hope most is to die."
Liu San was silent for a moment, hesitant on his face. My heart was raised, and I just asked him to figure it out and leave. He finally raised his head, his eyes reflected his inner entanglement.
He gave a weird smile, and suddenly threw the squirming pocket in his hand at me. I saw a small emerald green snake on my chest, the triangular snake head shook, and a pain came.
"But, if I don't kill you, someone will kill me." Liu San's voice sounded from the sky, when it was pitch black before my eyes, "Be blamed, just blame someone for not wanting you to live."
Darkness flooded in like a tide, enveloping me layer by layer, I was almost unable to move, unable to break free...
"No!" I exclaimed, but broke free from the endless darkness.
It turned out that it was a nightmare.
Looking up, there is a dilapidated roof with cobwebs and a few small holes where you can see the starry sky.
My heart, which had been nervous in the dark, was finally able to let go a little bit. Looking around, a few lone candle heads were burning awkwardly. The candles were not vigorous, but only pitifully illuminated a small area around, but the orange fire But it gave me a sense of peace and warmth.
"Miss, you're awake." A familiar voice came. I looked sideways with difficulty. Haoyue took a bowl of soup medicine and sat on a four-legged stool with missing legs. The neckline, cuffs and skirt are embroidered with light pink lotus. The flowers are scattered on the dusty ground, like amazing flowers blooming in the dark night. She tried to maintain her balance, but her face was embarrassed, and she immediately became happy when she saw my eyes opened.
I looked at her soft and delicate face under the candlelight, as if to take care of my mood. She didn't wear too much jewelry, but just a few lotus-like palace beads, made up of pink pearls the size of rice beads, and sprinkled with them. On the ruyi buns piled up like clouds, her pink face is like small lotus petals.
I smiled at her: "Why are you here?" It was just a nightmare for me before I realized that.
"Miss, you have been in a coma for three days." Haoyue looked at me with a worried expression.
"Three days?" I struggled to sit up, and looked at this room, which was where I lived before.
"Where's the snake? Watch out for the snake!" I suddenly thought of the little green snake in my dream and called in panic.
"Don't be afraid, the snake has been killed, and this place has been cleaned." It was Brother Zhao's voice. He was pushing the door open, still holding a bowl with spiky food in it.
"Liu San is dead." Haoyue's voice didn't carry any emotion, and she looked at me with a stunned look. She slowly said: "I will leave that day. Brother Zhao went in to look, but found that Liu San didn't know where to hide. The snake under the bed is gone."
"I think it's very strange that if Liu San catches a snake, he will come out, but there is no back door in this house, and he has no place to go out, so he keeps an eye on it."
"It turns out that Liu San has already caught the snake alive, just wanting to wait for one of us to get in and let the snake kill us." Haoyue said angrily, "Fortunately, guard Zhao was alert and paying attention to the surroundings, so Liu San didn't succeed."
I can only nod my head blankly, not knowing what to say.
"Miss, let me drink the decoction first." Haoyue handed me the medicine bowl in her hand, and said concerned: "Miss's ankle sprained very badly, but fortunately, it didn't break. She just pulled out the high fever. We dare not ask a doctor. , I could only ask for anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing medicine from the Imperial Medical Office. Shiwei Zhao brought wound medicines, which are all useful.
Haoyue stroked her chest, this time she was also terrified, she said a Buddha smile She said, "Fortunately, the lady woke up and the fever subsided. The injury on this foot will gradually heal."
"Then how did Liu San die?" My spiritual platform was clearer at this time, and I swallowed the medicine in one mouthful. It was very bitter, but it was a life-sustaining thing.
"Liu Sanhe..." Brother Zhao's tone was painful, and his face was also annoyed.
"He's guilty of death!" Haoyue said sternly, and then his tone eased: "Zhao Shiwei, if you didn't kill him at that time, you and my lady would be the ones who died. You are just protecting yourself and saving others. There is nothing wrong with it. ."
Brother Zhao smiled bitterly: "That's the case, but we have been in the same team for many years..."
"You have done the best of benevolence." Haoyue pulled out a hairpin on her head to light up the candle, and said lightly: "You notified Director Zhang, you and him found that there were poisonous snakes here, and came back to catch him, not wanting him to be bitten by a poisonous snake. Death. Director Zhang praised his loyalty, rewarded his family's talents, and asked your guards to use him as an example, which is enough." Haoyue seemed very dissatisfied, but it was not very obvious in her words.
I just think the previous dream is unbelievably real, even if I wake up at this time and confirm that it is a dream, I still have lingering fears.
If it wasn't for Brother Zhao to be alert, then that dream would be reality. In the dream, Liu San said that if he didn't kill me, someone would kill him. Is this also true?
"Moonman," I thought for a while and said: "You know, I have nothing now, and I hope you can help me."
"Miss, you really broke me by saying this," Haoyue said.
With a gentle smile on my lips, I slowly said, "If you have, help me give Liu San’s family one hundred taels of silver. Although Zhang Dehai has rewarded his family, it must not be much. You give them some. Let them have a better life." I paused and said, "It's just that I can't promise to pay you back. After all," I looked around and said, "I am no longer who I was."
Haoyue wiped her eyes and said, "Miss's kindness to Haoyue is like a reinvention. If there is no lady, how can you come to the moon?" The smile on her face is not all grateful. There is another thing I can't see clearly, but my whole body hurts. It's terrible, I don't have the mind to think too much.
"It's just one hundred taels. The young lady rewarded me before, far more than this." Haoyue smiled, but she was a little embarrassed: "It's just that if you send it in my name, it will inevitably be suspicious."
I nodded and looked at Brother Zhao and said, "Brother Zhao, I wonder if you can bring that silver to Liu San's family, just say it was rewarded in the palace."
Brother Zhao scratched his scalp, nodded, and asked in an incomprehensible tone: "He was wrong to you before and even wanted to kill you. Why do you still treat him like this?"
I looked at the projection of the branches and leaves trembling in the wind outside the window, and slowly said, "It's nothing, I just feel that he is just a poor man who can't help himself."
Haoyue was startled, a trace of fear flashed across her face, but instantly disappeared in the blue smoke from the candle, as if it was just my illusion.
Brother Zhao looked at me with admiration: "I didn't expect you to have such a broad mind. If it were me, I wouldn't do that."
I smiled faintly, a smile like a thin moonlight falling on the roof tiles: "Just take it to accumulate virtue for myself. Repay the grievances with virtue, and the fruit of repair should be good."
Haoyue was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Miss has always been kind. Then I will trouble Shiwei Zhao."
Brother Zhao nodded and gave me the bowl in his hand: "This is the food for our guards. The food here was really not for humans when I saw you last time. Since you are still sick, you still eat less. These, you have eaten them. Right."
I took the bowl. Although the meal of the guard was not good, at least it would not be rotten. Brother Zhao is a small leader in the team, and his meals are relatively better. I looked at it, there were mushrooms, chicken and green vegetables spread all over the snow-white rice. I couldn't help my lips and teeth produce fluid, and even screamed with my stomach.
