Chapter 112
Chapter 111: Heal
The hot spring water misted, and both of them were silent for a moment.
It may be that the extremes of things must be reversed. After a long time of embarrassment, Li Chaoge turned out to be indifferent. She nodded and said, “Okay.”
Gu Mingke’s words to give up have already come to his lips, but he didn’t expect Li Chaoge to say “OK”. Gu Mingke paused slightly, and the people who didn’t go up and couldn’t get down became him instead. And Li Chaoge still asked in front: “Is it me turning around, or are you coming to the front?”
She was so generous and generous, but Gu Mingke gave birth to a subtle displeasure. As if there was no difference between men and women in her eyes, Gu Mingke was like her, but a dead creature without gender.
Gu Mingke didn’t know where the waves in his heart came from, he did not coldly replied: “You are a patient, don’t have to toss, let me go to the water.”
Li Chaoge heard Gu Mingke’s cold voice, and his dryness slowly cooled. Yes, she is just a patient. Gu Mingke can only detoxify in her heart. She will only worry about herself.
There was inexplicable silence between the two. Gu Mingke took off the outer wide-sleeved shirt, revealing the white brocade robe inside. The brocade robe is embroidered with silver-gray dark patterns, the cuffs are tightened, and the waist is high and tied, looking long and slim.
Gu Mingke wore a white brocade robe and entered the hot spring, his clothes instantly wet. The mist constantly evaporates from the hot spring. Although the brocade robe does not transmit light, but it is tightly attached to Gu Mingke at this moment? It is particularly contemplative.
Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke looked away at the same time, both of them regretted a little. But this is the end of the matter. Li Chaoge has a pampered fan, and Gu Mingke has a noble attitude of being a doctor with kindness and saving lives. Gu Mingke hung his eyelashes with water mist and said, “If you mind, I can close my eyes for acupuncture.”
“No need.” Li Chaoge thought to this point, is there any difference between opening and closing eyes? She didn’t care, and said lightly: “You should open your eyes. What if you stabbed me wrong?”
Gu Mingke couldn’t answer the question, and silently condensed a needle from the water, piercing the acupuncture point in front of Li Chaoge’s body. Tiantu, Xuanji, Huagai, Purple Palace… Gu Mingke’s hands were getting lower and lower? Li Chaoge’s body became tighter and tighter. Her skin couldn’t help but get red. Gu Mingke went to get a needle. Before he could say anything, Li Chaoge hurriedly said: “The hot spring is too hot, it is steamed red by water.”
Gu Mingke paused for a while holding the needle’s hand. He didn’t pay attention. After Li Chaoge said this, he couldn’t help but glance at that place. Li Chaoge’s skin is white and firm, soaking in the water waves, it is white and red, clear and flawless, and looks very good in color.
Li Chaoge’s skin was even redder, and the crimson was dyed down to his neck. Gu Mingke’s ear tips also turned red. He coughed slightly and said, “It’s not good to soak in the hot spring for too long, so let’s come out after the acupuncture.”
Li Chaoge was so embarrassed that there was something wrong with his whole body, and he still had to respond very seriously?: “I know.”
Gu Mingke held a long and thin needle in his hand. He used to make the needle very neatly, but this time for some reason, he hesitated for a moment.
The Zigong acupoint goes down, which is Yutang and Tanzhong, these two acupoints…between the chest. Li Chaoge was wearing a tube top, and the acupuncture points were naturally covered under a thin coat. Seeing Gu Mingke hesitating, Li Chaoge gritted his teeth and wanted to untie the tube top.
Gu Mingke was taken aback by Li Chaoge’s actions. He quickly took Li Chaoge’s arm and said, “No.”
Li Chaoge had soaked in the hot spring for a long time, and the skin on his arm was steamed warm. When Gu Mingke held it up, the skin in his palm was as gelatinous, with a warm fragrant nephrite, and it felt very good to the touch. The two of them had had physical contact before, but they felt completely different from the present through clothes. There was water on both of them. Gu Mingke’s fingers were slightly cold, and Li Chaoge’s arms were warm, and the skin of the two of them was touched. Gu Mingke retracted his hands. For the first time in a thousand years, he felt that he could not control his fingers.
He immersed his hands in the water, and tried to say sternly: “It’s okay to be separated by clothes. I’m worried that you feel offensive.”
Li Chaoge replied in a low voice, staring at the other side of the water, and said, “It’s okay.”
Gu Mingke condensed ice needles from the water again. He never gets distracted, but this time, holding the thin ice needles in his hand, his fingertips still have the touch of Li Chaoge’s skin, and his eyes fall on the tube top. , Can’t concentrate for a long time?
Gu Mingke was secretly alert to himself, trying to put the needle tip into Yutang and Tanzhong acupoints without squinting. He followed the meridians downwards, and gradually the needles were flooded by the surface of the water, and the acupuncture entered the waist and abdomen.
The ice needle was condensed by Gu Mingke’s spiritual power and would not be melted by hot water, but it was not a needle problem at all. Li Chaoge’s waist and abdomen were tight, and beautiful lines could be vaguely seen. Gu Mingke didn’t look underwater, he looked forward, and he felt a needle and a hole with his hand, without any deviation.
Even so, the atmosphere in the hot spring is still very embarrassing. The waist and abdomen are already very sensitive parts, the water is hot, the needle is cold, Gu Mingke’s hand is still moving forward, Li Chaoge wants to curse the dead village and the old woman who gave her medicine more than once. What is this strange? Why do you have to use this kind of voodoo?
The main vein was pierced, and most of the detoxification was completed. Gu Mingke looked at the acupuncture points nearby, not too far away to detoxify Li Chaoge. Gu Mingke didn’t mean to be impolite when the slender needle tip penetrated into the Lingxu acupoint, but he inevitably saw the scar on Li Chaoge’s chest when he underwent the needle.
That was the scar left by the Qianyuan Sword, hurting the origin, unable to heal.
Gu Mingke sighed secretly in his heart, and couldn’t help but relax a little more.
After Gu Mingke gave the needle, he left the hot spring. Li Chaoge had to say a long sigh of relief. She quietly relaxed her body, feeling a chill that spreads down the needle slowly into the water. In addition to voodoo, the impurities and malaise in the body are also discharged. Li Chaoge has no movement, but he clearly feels that the meridians are much smoother.
This time is not only detoxification, but also a major cleansing of the meridians. When the time was up, the ice needles melted automatically, and Li Chaoge came out of the hot spring wearing his clothes, only feeling light and clear in his body. Not only did he improve his cultivation, his skin became whiter.
Based on this alone, she was not at a loss for this poisoning.
Gu Mingke had already returned to the forest hut. His clothes were obviously wet, but he was now fresh and clean. The two faced each other again, and looked away quietly.
Li Chaoge couldn’t dry her clothes and hair instantly like Gu Mingke, her hair was still wet, and her body was also full of moisture. Sitting in the room, Li Chaoge felt that the silence was too embarrassing, so he quickly changed the subject and said, “How did you find me?”
Gu Mingke always looked out of the window. In the winter, thousands of trees were depressed and life was extinct. He didn’t know what to look at. He sounded calm and said: “I was led away from the village. When I returned, you had disappeared. I followed the breath you left behind and found you in the forest.”
Li Chaoge nodded and asked, “Where are the four warriors?”
Li Chaoge escaped safely, and Qian Yuanjian returned to her hands. How could she not guess, it was Gu Mingke who found the Four Warriors and saved her.
Gu Mingke’s voice was still so plain and flat: “Kill.”
Li Chaoge was startled, all four were killed? Li Chaoge knew the strength of the four warriors very well. Gu Mingke killed four at once…
Seeing her not speaking, Gu Mingke asked, “What’s the matter?
“Nothing.” Li Chaoge shook his head and sighed, “It’s just a pity that I didn’t see you drawing the sword.”
He looked gentle and decent, as if he would never be dusted in his life. Li Chaoge couldn’t help it? Imagine what he was like to kill.
“Nothing to regret.” Gu Mingke didn’t care, his eyes were cold, and he said almost indifferently, “I have killed more people than saved people?”
In the mortal world, he was in charge of the unsound part, killing countless people, and full of blood. When he arrived in the heavenly court, he also led the torture prison, and countless immortals were tortured under his hands. He looks clean and clean, but in fact, his body is full of darkness.
Li Chaoge was quiet, and suddenly said, “How can I say this? Although I don’t know Dali Temple, but I heard that since you entered Dali Temple, no one has ever called injustice in the judgment. Many? Years of unjust cases and wrong cases, you have all been rehabilitated. It is true that writing history and criticizing current malpractices are just right, but if everyone calls for justice and no one maintains order in the world, will it lead to greater darkness and evil? You are just doing things that no one wants to do. The real light is the one who defends the shadows.”
Gu Mingke didn’t expect that she would say this. He retracted his gaze from the window and glanced at her with a light smile: “You don’t know anything, you take it for granted.”
“Of course I don’t understand your story.” Li Chaoge snorted softly and raised his neck, still very confident, “but I know you.”
Gu Mingke wanted to laugh, how long did she know him? How long did she dare to know him? But when the words came to his lips, he couldn’t speak or laugh.
I know you.
He has lived here? How long, don’t say know him, only people who can understand him, how many? How few?
Li Chaoge didn’t know why Gu Mingke was quiet? Come. She waited, but before Gu Mingke could speak, she asked, “The Four Warriors are dead, where is the village?”
“It’s still there.” Gu Mingke replied lightly, “An unarmed civilian village, there is no need to anger the whole village for the fault of a single person.”
Li Chaoge nodded. She also felt that it was their fault for the murder of the living, but if the other villagers were innocent, they should be put into reincarnation. If the village is destroyed if nothing else, what is the difference between them and the people who have harmed Turtleback Village?
Li Chaoge asked: “These? These villagers seem to live in ages far away. Why did they live?”
“There is a formation in the village.” Gu Mingke seemed to sigh. He stroked his eyebrows, rarely showing tiredness, “Probably, someone awakened it again.”
Li Chaoge’s eyes moved. She stared at Gu Mingke and asked, “Who?”
“I don’t know.” Gu Mingke’s face was flat and almost indifferent.
Li Chaoge raised an eyebrow. Gu Mingke thought she didn’t understand, and explained to her: “You were put in a coffin when you were in a coma… Sorry, I didn’t intend to offend, but it was the case at the time. I guess you were mostly regarded as a sacrifice by them? NS.”
Li Chaoge waved his hand, indicating that he didn’t mind: “I know. Before I fell into a coma, I vaguely heard the old woman let me stay? Come as a sacrifice. Is this a **** or a ghost? Why do you need a living person as a sacrifice? ”
Gu Mingke’s eyes moved. He concealed the uncomfortableness under his eyes. When he raised his eyes, he looked out of the way and said: “The villagers worship the gods, in fact, what they worship is their own fantasy. They often impose certain wishes on the gods. It’s like offering sacrifices… When I was in the village, the reason why I pretended to be a husband and wife was to prevent you from being chosen as a sacrifice. I didn’t expect it, but I couldn’t hide it.”
If Li Chaoge has some understanding, he has repeatedly blocked Li Chaoge’s explanation, including pushing her down at the old woman’s house, all to protect her? However, Li Chaoge frowned and couldn’t help resenting it: “What exactly is the sacrifice of the Valkyrie, and why should you pick unmarried people?”
Gu Mingke was even more embarrassed. He said, “It’s the people’s own opinion. If you are really curious, let’s go and take a look when you are cured.”
Li Chaoge nodded and responded. She wanted to see what the **** these people were doing.
The voodoo on Li Chaoge’s body has been cleared for several days, and every time Gu Mingke needs to acupuncture her in the hot spring. Li Chaoge felt embarrassed at first, but gradually became numb and got used to it.
The new year is here, Luoyang is full of fireworks and brightly lit, but Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke live in the deserted mountains, quietly bathing in medicine and forcing poison, as if all the noise in the world has nothing to do with them. Sometimes Li Chaoge is very boring, and he would consult with Gu Mingke. The last time he could not see Gu Mingke draw his sword, Li Chaoge deeply regrets it.
I don’t know how long it has been. Suddenly one day, Gu Mingke woke her up early in the morning and said, “It’s time to set off.”
Li Chaoge didn’t ask why, and went out without any delay. After coming out, Li Chaoge looked back at the cabin.
The cabins are built among the trees, almost integrated with the dense forest. Although this place is simple, it is the place where Li Chaoge has slept most comfortably since he was reborn.
After that, it is estimated that we will never see each other again. For some reason, Li Chaoge felt unwilling to give up.
Gu Mingke stopped not far away, and did not urge her. Li Chaoge quickly retracted his gaze and hurriedly chased forward: “Let’s go.”
Li Chaoge didn’t know what Gu Mingke used to find his way, but saw him turning around, walking through caves and creeks, and finally stopped in front of a rocky cliff. Gu Mingke looked at the upper side and said, “It’s here.”
Li Chaoge looked left and right, his brows frowned. If it was normal, she would not be a problem climbing a cliff like this? But now, her voodoo is still unsolved, her body’s true energy is not sustainable, and climbing the mountain is a bit troublesome.
Li Chaoge was thinking about a countermeasure. Standing next to him, Gu Mingke suddenly whispered to her: “Grab steady.” Then, he took her waist and jumped up.
Li Chaoge was taken aback, and subconsciously grasped Gu Mingke’s clothes. Gu Mingke swept across the nearly vertical mountain walls like a horror. During the period, he didn’t even need to use any force, and he landed smoothly quickly.
They landed on a small platform with lush mountains in the back. The rime undulated along with the mountains, and the front was a dark cave with vines covering the entrance. You can’t find it unless you look carefully.
Li Chaoge pushed the branches apart with a sword and asked, “What are we doing here?”
Gu Mingke hissed to her, entered the cave first, and said softly, “Come with me.”
Li Chaoge followed Gu Mingke and leaned over into the cave. This? It seems to be a secret road, the cultivation is extremely long and narrow, many places only allow one person to pass. The stone walls are full of cold air, and the ground is full of ice ballast. After walking for an unknown amount of time, the secret road suddenly became flat, and the space inside became larger, allowing two people to walk side by side on the road.
Li Chaoge walked beside Gu Mingke, quietly looking at the surrounding murals. There are characters carved on the stone wall, and the center of the picture is a child. Li Chaoge carefully identified him and saw his birth, growing up, studying abroad, participating in wars, and finally a grand celebration scene, as if it was someone’s life. Li Chaoge looked at the mural and asked, “Where is this?”
“The real Wushen Temple.” After Gu Mingke finished speaking, he signaled Li Chaoge not to make a sound. Li Chaoge also heard the movement in front of him, and the two of them stepped lightly, leaned against the wall lightly, and looked outside.
In the front is a huge dome cave. The place where Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke are located is exactly in the middle of the cave. Li Chaoge hid behind the stone and saw a wide circular altar below. In the middle stood a tall statue of the **** of war. At the foot of the statue, there were layers of villagers kneeling. Li Chaoge condensed his true energy on his eyes and saw the old woman. It’s in it, and the position is very high.
Everyone bowed their heads, knelt together, put their hands together, and said the prayer in unison: “The emperor goes up to heaven, and shines down on earth. Everyone has his place, and he lives in groups. Being peaceful and peaceful, Master Wang Yuxing. Take the bell as a guide and call the king to return. …”
As they whispered, the bells around the altar rang automatically without wind. It’s like some kind of guide, calling the lost person back home.
Li Chaoge was slightly startled, this? Isn’t it the chanting that she vaguely heard when she was in a coma that day? There were also ringtones in the background. Li Chaoge felt familiar in her dreams. Thinking about it now, she had heard these words a long time ago.
More than ten days ago in the town demon treasurer’s room, when Gu Mingke explained the ancient spirit technique, he seemed to have some nostalgia and said: “If you die in another country, you will not cross the dead. Use the bell as a guide to call the king back.”
How could Gu Mingke know the sacrifice? Moreover, he is too familiar with Wushen Temple. Under the feet? These? Some villagers may not know that there is a secret path in this? But Gu Mingke could find the back mountain and sneak in without knowing it.
Li Chaoge was in a daze, and the villagers had finished praying. They stood up and retreated to the altar according to their position of inferiority. A person wearing a mask walked up to the altar, followed by three coffins. After the villager who carried the coffin put the coffin down, he lowered his hands down?
The masked man circled around the coffin three times. He danced a weird dance, and said something in his mouth: “Bright light is from the top and bottom? It is applied diligently. Weiyu alone worships the **** of war, celebrating the birth of the **** of war, and offering three sacrifices. People, above the emperor? Serve the **** of war…”
Li Chaoge hid behind the stone and watched the ceremony while taunting Gu Mingke: “So the gods also marry three wives and four concubines? I thought that after becoming a fairy, they would not be indulged in the world. Unexpectedly, the immortals are no different from ordinary men. .”
Gu Mingke looked at him indifferently. He was a little embarrassed when he heard Li Chaoge’s words. He couldn’t help but rectify the name of the gods: “No, this? It’s the villagers’ speculations and their own opinions.”
Li Chaoge glanced at him strangely: “How do you know if it is?”
Gu Mingke was stuck and couldn’t explain it. Li Chaoge sneered, shook his head and said: “Men are really immortal. They are dead, and they still have three wives and four concubines.”
Gu Mingke pursed his mouth silently, looking at his side, his face was extremely suffocated. Li Chaoge looked at it for a while, and asked, “Are there live women in those three coffins?”
Gu Mingke gave a faint hum, and Li Chaoge heard something unhappy from it for some reason. Li Chaoge had no time to control, and sighed: “If I escaped in time, it would be me who lay in it. They actually planned to give me to the Valkyrie… If the Valkyrie looks good, I can still reluctantly consider it, if he is really long. I’m not willing to be like a statue anyway.”
Gu Mingke was determined to ignore her. Hearing this, he couldn’t hold back: “You are so superficial and judge people only by their appearance?”
“Otherwise.” Li Chaoge was very righteous and confident. “Men are all the virtues after marriage. Find a good-looking one, at least I look happy.”
“How do I remember that you were engaged to me?”
“I didn’t say you again, what did you check in.”
Gu Mingke turned his face away, so angry that he didn’t want to speak. Li Chaoge looked at it for a while, and slammed Gu Mingke with his arm: “It’s almost? Drive them away. Hurry up and rescue the girl in the coffin.”
Gu Mingke thought that women are so fickle, let him cast spells when they are useful, and throw them away when they are useless? Look at her, as if she was not the one who said that “men are all the virtues after marriage”.
People still have to save Gu Mingke’s slander. His gestures changed, and he played several spells in succession. The bells suddenly rang fiercely, and the lines on the altar lit up one after another. The villagers in the lower side were shocked, some ran away in panic, and others knelt down and worshipped the tall statue of the **** of war: “The **** of war has appeared! You are finally back!”
There are more and more people kneeling down? However, the **** of war is aloof, his eyes are indifferent, and he is not moved by the believers below. As the light on the altar became brighter, the villagers’ bodies gradually turned into phantoms, dissipating in the air like powder.
Soon, everyone disappeared. Li Chaoge looked down at Fang from a distance, and asked, “What have you done to them?”
“Disperse the spirit body and send it to reincarnation.” This is the largest spell Gu Mingke has ever done since he descended to the world. He looked at his hands, and he was still not used to being so weak. Gu Mingke pulled up his sleeves and said, “They are dead, why bother to drag them back to the world. Under Huangquan? Since someone has calculated the yin virtue for them, and then went to reincarnation, it has nothing to do with the Qin family.”
Li Chaoge raised his eyebrows and looked back at Gu Mingke with a half-smile, “Qin’s?”
Gu Mingke pointed at the **** statue blankly: “His surname is Qin.”
Li Chaoge laughed softly. She nodded, watching noncommittal: “Okay.”
Gu Mingke waited until Fang’s death was almost gone, then led Li Chaoge down from the cave. Li Chaoge landed gently. The first thing she did was to see the people in the coffin. Fortunately, although they didn’t respond to the outside world, they still breathed. After Li Chaoge made sure that the three sacrifices were still alive, he looked around the altar. It’s a pity that the writing on the front is too old. Li Chaoge worked hard for a long time, but didn’t recognize any of them.
Li Chaoge sighed: “I actually lived with a group of dead people from ancient times for several days, and my heart is really big.”
“Shang? What happened to Gu?”
“Shang Gu is too old.” Li Chaoge tapped the stone seat of the Martial God statue with a sword, and found that he couldn’t push it, but regretfully gave up. “People in the ancient times, I can’t figure out how old they are.”
Feeling helpless in Gu Mingke’s heart, Li Chaoge started attacking his age again after attacking his looks. Li Chaoge had almost seen it, so he walked down the altar with a sword in his hand. Gu Mingke is standing under the altar? Waiting for her, seeing a lot of the strange-shaped Martial God, Li Chaoge is surprisingly pleasing to the eye now watching Gu Mingke.
Li Chaoge walked down the steps quickly and asked, “This? What about the three women?”
Li Chaoge thoughtfully asked, is it better to use medicated bath and acupuncture? Was it awakened? She was a little reluctant in her heart, and heard Gu Mingke say: “They are drugged, just use antidote for a few days.”
Li Chaoge’s inexplicable emotion dissipated immediately, she didn’t even react, and blurted out: “Why do they only need smoked medicine for poisoning?”
After speaking, Li Chaoge was embarrassed. She tried to explain: “I didn’t doubt you…”
“I understand.” Gu Mingke intercepted Li Chaoge’s words and replied, “You have never seen this kind of poison. It is normal to have doubts. You have martial arts, and the drugs they give you are specially formulated. But. These three women have no power to bind chickens, and all of them are ordinary drugs.”
Li Chaoge nodded, and quickly passed over this? A topic: “Where are we going to find the antidote?”
“There are in the mountains.” Gu Mingke said that he was about to go out. Li Chaoge stopped where he was, pointing to the rear with a little hesitation, “They are still in a coma.”
“If you don’t rest assured, you can take them on the road.” Gu Mingke coldly put his hands behind his back, with a very clear attitude, “I won’t do it anyway.”
All right, Li Chaoge gave up, she caught up with the front?, and said: “Then let’s go back quickly, they are lying here alone, it is always unsafe.”
Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke stayed in the Wushen Temple for several days. When the three women detoxified and were about to wake up, they put down their food and map and left quietly. Li Chaoge wanted to go out of the mountain immediately to find someone to help in the city, but was stopped by Gu Mingke.
Gu Mingke said: “You still have toxins in your body, and now you can go out even if you have the intention. The villagers have disappeared. There is no difference between the early days and the later days. It is better to stay in the mountains for a few days and wait for the body to fully recover before going out.”
Li Chaoge thought about it, so he stayed peacefully in the mountains. When Li Chaoge returned to Fenzhou and once again resumed contact with the outside world, it was already the eighteenth of the first lunar month.
In Fenzhou City, there was still the joy of the Spring Festival. After entering the city, Li Chaoge went straight to the governor’s office. As a result, she was only halfway through and was stopped by another pedestrian.
“Princess, I have found you.” Bai Qianhe saw her, almost crying with excitement, “Something happened to Dongdu! The prince is seriously ill, and the saint queen urgently summons you back to the palace.”
