Wei Shu

Chapter 173 Riding a Tiger
The moment the jade bottle approached, the scroll in the darkness was flipped again, and the candle was dimly lit, reflecting some vague and broken images:
Pain, fear, despair, loneliness and... nostalgia.

There is no definite person or thing, only the bottomless darkness.

Wei Shu's eyes were clouded, and she let go of her hand, and the jade bottle fell to the ground.

After a breath, she suddenly shuddered, and her eyes cleared up.

Another hallucination?

Before that false priest mistakenly hit the poisonous sword of the green sword woman, his body was like a dry bone, with a sly smile on his face, and his death was horrific. However, Wei Shu was attacked twice by this woman, and the hallucinations he had were all beautiful dreams; After getting rid of the poison, the illusion became suppressed again.

Poison also causes hallucinations, and detoxification also causes hallucinations. Does the principle of the production and restraint of poison and antidote mean that people have the opposite effect of hallucinations?

Wei Shu picked up the jade bottle, searched the body again, and found many bottles and jars, including some wound medicine specially made by the villa.

Applying Jinchuang medicinal herb to her back, and swallowing a few pills for internal injuries, she sat cross-legged and adjusted her breathing. Only then did he open his eyes, stretched out his arms and knocked "Du, Du" on the window rail twice:
"Come out and talk."

The cold voice echoed in the empty cabin, and the lingering sound was lingering, inexplicably carrying some majesty, making it impossible to refuse.

At the corner of the cabin, an overturned Eight Immortals table suddenly moved, and then, a head poked out cautiously.

"Call your master out, I'm busy."

Wei Shu didn't even look at the person with the exposed head, her voice was still very low.

Ali stood stiffly behind the table, half of his body was covered in blood, his description was quite scary, but his eyes were very dodgy, he didn't dare to look at Wei Shu, he just stretched his neck in an awkward posture to look out of the window .

The wind and rain were blowing, the pitch-black river was churning endlessly, and the boat was bumping violently. Ali's face was pale and his body was shaking.

Suddenly, a low sigh sounded, and immediately a figure appeared from behind the square table, leaning on the wall and slowly walking over.

Wei Shu looked up, her eyes suddenly opened slightly, and the expression on her face froze instantly.

This is... Goode? !

Hearing his voice and feeling his aura, the person who came was indeed Major General Gu De, but what appeared in front of Wei Shu at this time was a middle-aged man with a beard, ugly and vicious, with two interlaced scars on his face .

Goode changed?And the scar on this face...

Isn't this the head of the personal guard under Bush?
Wei Shu was quite surprised.

She had seen this man twice in You Shuai's Mansion and Ye Du, and she still had a deep impression of the scar on his face.If you just look at the face, the visitor looks exactly the same as Wei Shu remembers, only the body size is slightly different.

What was even more shocking was that this person was actually wearing a priestess' colorful dress, a fake bun on his head, and two braids hanging down his chest. His appearance was simply... treacherous.

Heinously treacherous.

Why did Goode disguise himself as the leader of Bush's personal guard?And also pretending to be a woman?
Wei Shu looked him up and down, and soon noticed that Gude's left leg seemed to be inconvenient. When standing there, he only supported it with his right foot, which seemed to be seriously injured.

What the hell happened on board?
"Your Excellency should still recognize me?" Goode said with a middle-aged face, his voice was still Wei Shu's familiar gloomy tone, but it was a little more mocking than usual.

"Is this method of disguise, your Excellency must be very familiar with it, so I don't need to say more?" While speaking, he raised his hand to remove the chignon on his head, revealing the wolf head tattoo on his forehead.

Wei Shu was startled for a while, and then realized that this was actually the handwriting of the villa.

As soon as this idea came to her mind, she immediately felt that "it should be so", "as expected".

Such a delicate and almost unreal disguise method is rare in the world, and only that mysterious villa can easily do it.

"Why are you on the boat?" Wei Shu asked him back.

Compared with disguise and women's clothing, this is the most puzzling thing for her.

According to the agreement between Wei Shu and Goode, Goode will find a way to keep Gilles on the ship, and Goode himself will avoid suspicion and hide back at the dock.

Gilles has had a long-standing grudge with him, and he always has to pick himself out before talking about others.

"Someone made a deal with me."

Goode seemed to have been waiting for Wei Shu to ask this question a long time ago. When he spoke, his face was full of sarcasm, and his eyes were flickering, as if he was provocative, or hinting:
"Speaking of which, didn't your Excellency also make a deal with me? The people in your villa really love this way, and you always want to make deals with others. I have nothing to say if it falls into your hands."

It's actually a villa again?

These people's hands are really long, making trouble everywhere, everywhere.

However, even so, it can't explain why they want to disguise Gude as Bush's confidant, could it be...

"Why you?" Wei Shu's eyes focused on Gu De, and she paused every word: "Why must it be you, Major General?"

How difficult is it to find someone with a similar body shape to pretend to be Bush's bodyguard?Why must the major general himself appear on the stage?Could it be that besides the eldest son, there is no one available and trustworthy around Mangtai?

Also, does Mangtai know about this?
Hearing Wei Shu's question, Goode suddenly laughed "ha".

Even though he was wearing a fake mask, there was an unspeakable bitterness in his writing, his laughter was short, and he started to stop:
"It turns out that you don't know the reason. I thought you knew. At first, I was the same as you, at a loss, but now I understand a little bit. Maybe someone... wants me to die."

Having said this in a low tone, he looked up to the sky and sighed again: "I have no choice but to ride a tiger."

After finishing speaking, he took a deep look at Wei Shu.

First threatened by this woman, and then persecuted by Wang Kuang, he couldn't help but come to where he is today, with more and more secrets on his back.

If he had known this earlier, he might as well have confessed everything to his father directly.What are flowers really?What is the eldest lady?Even if he confessed the matter directly, he would only suffer a little neglect and suspicion afterwards, which would be better than his life hanging by a thread right now.

Now, he is really hard to get off.

Death is not what you want, but life is still at a loss.

"Is the eldest lady dead?" Wei Shu asked for the third time.

Since meeting Goode, she has asked three times in a row, but none of them have addressed herself, but Goode didn't find it strange, as if she was used to it.Hearing the words at this time, he was stunned for a while before turning back to God, and nodded lightly:

"Well, she's dead."

"Who killed it?" Wei Shu didn't believe that Gu De would really kill his mother.

Sure enough, I saw the corner of Gu De's lips hooked, stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky above his head, and spit out a word:

"he."

　Let me tell you first, I may ask for leave in the next period of time, because the hospital will move the wards for the patients, and the nurses hired will also leave. It will be quiet for a few days.
