Sick King and Concubine

Chapter 173 Two crises (2)
A purple dress slowly fell from the darkness, and then stood beside him in exactly the same posture.

Both of them cast their gazes into the distance, and they didn't look at each other. They probably knew that they were the same kind of people. Some things seemed too much to say, and it was more suitable to be straightforward.

"I'll make a deal with you." Gucheng said flatly.

Chu Yu said: "I'm here to make a deal with you too. We can only make deals."

Gu Chengdao: "Yes. But do you know what my deal is?"

Chu Yu's eyes turned to him, the dark desolation piled up like dry bones: "Do you still recognize this thing?"

He spread out his hand, but it was a small bead, about the size of a soybean, but Gucheng could see it clearly, and knew that the bead the size of a soybean was densely engraved with nine hundred and ninety-nine The word "Buddha" suddenly came back to his memory, and his face sank slightly.

Knowing that he understood, Chu Yu withdrew his hand and said, "Three years ago, I sent someone to tell you about my deal. What I want is that."

Gucheng paused silently for a while, and said, "Are you sure?"

Chu Yu just said: "Here, only your family has such power, and I need to rely on your power."

Gu Cheng said: "You are cruel enough to yourself."

Chu Yu smiled, his eyes were so vague that he couldn't see clearly: "Aren't you?"

Gucheng raised his head and looked at the deep black trees, and said: "Any new life must be rebuilt in death. We are all walking on this road. At first, we only hoped to reach the end, but sometimes, we were deeply afraid. end."

Because there are caring people, caring tenderness, and greed on the way, so at the beginning, there is no distraction, but in the end, it is a desperate fall.For example, his Xiu Yi, his A Lie.

He said, "Come with me."

The two walked forward in the darkness, but finally fell into the darkness.

"Zixiu!"

Jiang Li opened her eyes suddenly, but found that there was only a chaotic darkness in the whole tent, but the thick tent could feel the faint light outside. She stretched out her hand, but found that it was covered in cold sweat, and her heartbeat was still beating. Irregularly beating.

She took a breath, recalling his bloody appearance in the dream, and felt an uncontrollable fear in her heart.

Fortunately it was a dream.

She remembered her sleeping position just now, and accidentally pressed her hand on her heart, suppressing the blood flow like that would cause nightmares.

What will happen to Chu Yu?
She reached out to pick up her clothes and put them on, remembering what happened last night, her face couldn't help but feel hot.After Chu Yu left last night, she thought she would not be able to fall asleep, but she fell asleep very quickly.

She tidied her hair, washed her face with the cold water beside her, and then went out.

The sky has lightened slightly, and Lou Xiyue and the others have already set off with the guards. They slept so deeply last night that they didn't even know when they left. A person walked by was Chu Yu's shadow Guo Ying, a female dark guard in Weizhong.

Holding the porridge in her hand, she said, "Princess."

Jiang Li glanced at the porridge, then at the people sitting around, and nodded secretly in his heart.Her food was no different from theirs, and it seemed that she did a good job in this aspect. She took it and brought it to her mouth, but her hand suddenly stopped.

Holding the edge of the bowl with her hand, she asked coldly, "Who cooks?"

A soldier next to him said: "Going back to the princess, it was Cui Da and the others who did it."

Jiang Li asked, "How long has he been doing this?"

The soldier said: "His family's ancestors have worked as cooks in the barracks for generations, and they are very good at this."

When Jiang Li heard this, his tone softened slightly, and he said, "The order will pass on, and today's breakfast cannot be eaten."

The people around looked at each other, then nodded and said, "Yes!"

Jiang Li turned to Guo Ying and said, "Take me to the place where the rice is cooked."

Guo Ying nodded, and then took Jiang Li to the cooking place.

Because of cooking, the place I arranged was close to the open area of ​​the river. When Jiangli walked over, Cui Da was preparing lunch at noon, and when he saw Jiangli coming, he felt a little uneasy.

He is a cook, even if he has never seen the princess, he knows that this posture is right. He does rough work, and has never seen a big man. When he saw Jiang Li coming, he was stunned for a while, and then lowered his eyes anxiously. .

Jiang Li glanced lightly, then walked past the food placed one by one, and asked, "Is that Cui Da?"

Cui Da hurriedly nodded: "The young one is Cui Da."

Jiang Li asked, "Have you been staying here to cook?"

Cui Zhan said tremblingly: "Yes, I cook here with these fire fighters, and I get up at Yinshi in the morning."

Jiang Li nodded and asked, "Is there anyone other than you here?"

Cui Da scratched his head and thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "No one has ever been here except us."

Jiang Li nodded, paused for a while, and was about to ask some more questions, but suddenly heard someone rushing over, saying, "I tell the princess, the soldiers are pale and have abdominal pains, I don't know what's going on."

When Cui Da heard this, his face immediately turned pale, and then fell to his knees with a "plop". He knew what this meant. This is the most important thing in the warnings of his ancestors. Once the food is wrong, it may endanger the entire army. Now , the fact happens.He didn't speak, knowing that even if it was none of his business, saving one person's life was insignificant compared to saving the entire army.

Jiang Li looked at his slightly trembling body, and the group of little fire fighters behind him, all fifteen or sixteen-year-old children, knelt down on the ground trembling.

Jiang Li shook his head and said, "Get up, it's none of your business."

She realized something was wrong when she got the clear porridge, but she didn't know how many extinct plants there were in the depths of the seedlings, and she didn't know the toxicity of them.But now, although I can smell the difference, she can't act rashly.At the beginning, she suspected that she was a cook, but after being a cook for several generations, she didn't have any doubts.She came here to look for it, but found that there was nothing wrong with the ingredients.Then there are only two left, someone poisoned or an accident.

But such surprises are rare.

She glanced around, and finally landed on the nearby water stream. She was not sure. It stands to reason that the water is running water. Even if poisoning is done, the entire river must be polluted on a large scale, otherwise the poisonous water will just flow. Far, it is impossible to cause such a large amount of damage.

She thought about it for a while, then walked over, squatted down, dipped some water in the handkerchief in her hand, and when she smelled it, her expression changed slightly.
