After resigning, I switched to fortune-telling

Chapter 84

The light of the fire is reflected in the water, flowing faintly.

Yu Sheng sighed regretfully: "It looks like Shang Qingyao."

"So Shen Yu didn't succeed?" Xie Tangru asked calmly.

"Maybe." Yu Shengman said indifferently, "So what, rebellion is a matter of narrow escape, and failure is also normal."

Xie Tangru focused on the front, and the wind passing through the hall blew up his ear, "I just heard what Miss Yu said, and I'm curious... Was Miss Yu's rebellion for revenge?"

"You always think this way, thinking that everything in this world has its roots." Yu Sheng sneered, with that naive and cruel expression on her face again, as if she couldn't understand Xie Tangru's thoughts, she tilted her head in doubt , "But how can there be a reason for everything? I just do it because it makes me happy."

"Because everything needs to find a suitable reason for it, just like the country's demise is because of the cruel monarch, so the world will always be controlled and bound by emotions, and will always be trapped forever."

"Look, you are like this too." Yu Sheng said softly.

The moment her words fell, Shang Qingyao had crossed the first line of defense, stepped onto the long bridge, and met Xie Tangru's eyes.The long sword in the emperor's hand was faintly dripping with blood, the arc of his jaw was tense, and his face was extremely cold, but his tone was still gentle.

"Ah Ru, don't be afraid. Wait for me to come over."

Under the night illuminated by the fire, Xie Tangru stood at the entrance of the main hall, all ten carved wooden doors were opened, and the cold wind passed through the hall, blowing his sleeves fiercely.

It is too cold in winter.

For the first time in his life, he clearly described Shang Qingyao's facial features in his heart.

Suddenly fine snowflakes floated in the night.

The moon-like pure white fell into Yu Sheng's dark eyes, her gaze wandered between Xie Tangru and Shang Qingyao, and finally settled on Xie Tangru's side face.

"He thought you'd be scared. Funny."

Xie Tangru lowered his eyelashes and did not answer.Shang Qingyao was stopped at the other end of the long bridge by the people brought by Yu Sheng. Those people were like tireless and painful weapons to stop Shang Qingyao from advancing.

Xie Tangru looked at it for a while, and he could see the strangeness of these people.

They are dead men.

But these dead soldiers are different from ordinary dead soldiers. They are inhuman "weapons" forged by the Guifang clan.They possess greater speed, greater strength, and incredible healing abilities.

It was Yu Sheng who dared to come to see Xie Tangru alone.

"Are you worried?" Yu Sheng followed his gaze. Even though their eyes were directed in the same direction, what they saw was completely different.

Xie Tangru frowned very quickly, and heard Yu Sheng say ambiguously: "No one can not be driven by emotions, but are your emotions really your emotions?"

"What do you want to say?" Xie Tangru suddenly turned his face, his eyes were as sharp as a sharp knife.

At some point, Yu Sheng had an extra bow and arrow in his hand, which was handed to her by the dead man who had been hiding behind her.She caressed the taut bowstring with her fingertips, and pressed marks on her fingertips, which seemed to be cut off in the next moment——

She handed out the bow, raised her voice, and swayed into the night: "Master Xie, have you ever thought that your current feelings are not really your own, but a complete lie."

The voice was sweet but full of malice: "I think there are some things I don't need to say anymore. You like Shang Qingyao, and it was never your real thought—that's just Gu worms deceiving you."

An important condition for the success of the concentric Gu seeding Gu is that the person involved must never realize that he has been hit by the Gu.Once the truth is exposed, the blinding effects of Gu worms on thoughts will also be lifted.

"That was originally the Unity Gu that I asked someone to plant for the deposed prince, but it suddenly disappeared for some reason. Mr. Xie, where do you think it should be now?" Yu Sheng tilted his head, with some kind of malicious inducement .Xie Tangruzhong's Gu is of course not the one she intended to plant for the deposed prince, but she didn't lie, did she?

"If you don't believe me, you can ask your majesty in front of you, is what I said wrong?"

Shang Qingyao closed his eyes.

At such a time, saying such a thing has to be said to be a clever means.

Eyelashes drooping, Xie Tangru grasped the longbow she handed over, his expression was obscured in the shadows.

At the same time, her voice also reached the other end.Shang Qingyao's men and Yu Sheng's men were clearly separated, and they faced each other silently.Thin and dense snowflakes fell on everyone's hair and clothes.

The last sentence fell with a smile.

"He lied to you."

A polished long arrow was handed to Xie Tangru.

Yu Sheng bewitched him: "End this mistake. Only by ending this mistake with your own hands, can you erase the deception and shame he imposed on you."

"When we return to Lingnan, you will become the most honorable young master of the Guifang clan, and all the love and hatred today are just a bad dream."

She looked at Xie Tang with a smile, like a bow and an arrow, and there was a faint wave in her heart.

The blood of the royal family of the Shang family will end in her hands after all--thousands of miles, immortality, all will be wiped out.

The tip of the arrow was aimed at Shang Qingyao, Xie Tangru pulled the bowstring, but did not rush to shoot the arrow.

Time passed by bit by bit, and Yu Sheng couldn't help feeling a little anxious when he saw that he hadn't moved.Her plan should be perfect, but when it comes to Xie Tangru's actual reaction, this "perfection" inevitably has a loophole.

"Is Xie Shizi soft-hearted?" Yu Sheng tapped his lips with his fingertips, and his soft and sweet smile was unreasonably cold.

"Soft-hearted?" Xie Tangru smiled slightly, keeping her eyes on the front, "Didn't Miss Yu say it yourself, I was originally an ordinary person who was controlled by emotions and had a soft heart."

When Shang Qingyao heard his words in the distance, the light in his eyes moved.

Yu Sheng was incredulous: "He deceived you and tricked you, so can you forgive him?"

"Miss Yu has a clever plan, but I'm afraid I didn't expect one thing—the Gu of the Guifang clan doesn't work for me." He watched Yu Sheng's expression change again and again calmly, and finally froze in an extreme On Anger and Embarrassment.

"How is it possible?" She lost her voice in surprise.

"I let Miss Yu down." Xie Tang smiled at Yan Yan, "I have never been deceived from the beginning. As for you thinking that I like Shang Qingyao, it is because I really admire him."

He raised his jaw, and his voice did not shy away from being heard.These words clearly crossed the water surface, and the final sound came into Shang Qingyao's ears vaguely.

"In any case, my own sincerity is still clear - I just like him."

As the words fell, Xie Tangru moved his fingertips, and the tip of the silver-white arrow deflected unnoticed, and then the long arrow left the string, piercing the cold air, and shot straight at Shang Qingyao.

Yu Sheng's eyes widened.

The arrow approached in an instant, brushed against Shang Qingyao's cheek, and pierced into the eyebrows of the person behind him.The force was so great that the arrow pierced the head and the blood exploded.

Shang Qingyao turned around and took a look, the man who was nailed to death by an arrow fell to the ground, revealing his neglected true face, it was Shen Yu who had never appeared in this palace change.A sharp dagger fell out of his sleeve.

But if Shang Qingyao let him get closer just now, the result now may be completely different.He was originally Yu Sheng's follow-up to ensure that the plan was foolproof. In case Xie Tangru's heart softened and shot the arrow sideways, Shen Yu would immediately strike. In the chaos, everyone would think that Xie Tangru's arrow was the one that killed Shang Qingyao the culprit.

But Xie Tangru jumped out of their plan.

Yu Sheng fell to his knees, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spewed out from his mouth.The same life Gu closely linked her and Shen Yu's lives, they were like each other's half body, if something happened to one of them, the other would not be able to live alone.

She felt that the vitality in her body was being drained rapidly. The life she lent to Shen Yu with secret techniques in the past was repaid in her body at this moment.

The scene in front of her was already hazy, as if separated by a layer of blood mist.Yu Sheng supported the ground with his hands, and after a long while finally raised his head with difficulty, looking at Xie Tangru from below, his voice was as weak as her life, like a candle in the wind, but it also carried an unwillingness to be stubborn.

"Xie Tangru, tell me—is Mrs. Jin still alive?"

At this moment, the hatred and entanglement of her parents and the complicated fate of the Guifang clan are all moving away from her, and the last thing she thinks of is the gentle face at the beginning.

Her life was nothing but a hasty dream, empty.

But at the end of fate, she still wants an answer.

She reached out her hand to grab Xie Tangru's clothes, but in the end her fingertips trembled weakly, and then fell down.

"you tell me……"

"I do not know."

However, this was the only answer I could give her.

Yu Sheng closed his eyes.
