Chapter 967 - Chapter 968 - Too Late"Then you guys hurry up and find a place to hide. As long as this period of time pa.s.ses, everything they do will be in vain." Ning Zheyan never thought that the situation would actually develop to such a serious state.
"Hide? If we had known their goal from two months ago, perhaps we would have been able to hide from them, but it is already too late, and Cang Chu risked his life to even play the role of Broken Sleeve to stay by my side, just to keep track of my whereabouts and to ensure that I wouldn"t die suddenly during this period of time. " Mu Jin said sincerely.
In these past few days, no matter where he went, Cang Chu would always follow him, and if he encountered any danger, Cang Chu would be the first one to attack;
"Since they want your life, then we should feign death. Zheyan has fake death medicine here!" Ning Zheyan"s captivating red lips slightly opened, but his words were extremely urgent.
Mu Jin shook his head again: "Cang Chu is not easy to deceive, even if we deceive him, they will miss this one chance, what do you think they will do? Whether they are close to us or just know us, they will kill us all. The more they pay for this plan, the more terrifying they will become when they go berserk, and after we fake our deaths, they will directly destroy our "corpses." "
They would definitely be able to do such a thing.
"Is it too late to do anything now?" The more Mu Jin spoke, the more worried Ning Zheyan became, as though the one being sacrificed was him.
After he finished speaking, Wei Yuanwei suddenly turned to look at Mu Jin and said calmly: "If there"s a way to prove that the child was not Fu Chen"s, and was instead Yao Yao deceiving Fu Chen, then is there still a thread of hope?"
Mu Jin"s soft and clear black eyes slightly moved upwards, his slender and thick eyelashes drooped, and the corner of his eyes fell onto the shadow of a thick painting fan, which carried a kind of sentimental meaning: "It should be, but how should I prove it? The child in Yao Yao definitely looks similar to Fu Chen, and since the two bloodlines are fused, if you don"t bring out substantial evidence, Fu Chen will not believe you. "
In this ancient era where there was no DNA, it was indeed extremely difficult to prove whether or not a child was his or her own. However, Wei Yuanwei had other plans in her mind.
"I want to try." After a long while, Wei Yuanwei retracted her watery eyes and looked at Mu Jin.
No matter what, she couldn"t just watch Mu Jin die and be taken by those foolish ancient people as some kind of Sacrifices.
There were some things that science could not explain, but it could not blindly believe in superst.i.tion.
Both Ning Zheyan and Mu Jin"s eyes looked towards Wei Yuanwei at the same time.
The light in Wei Yuanwei"s eyes was calm and profound, yet at the same time, firm.
Mu Jin reached out and grabbed Wei Yuanwei"s hand, her clear and calm voice was firm as well, "Iris, no matter what, I won"t leave you behind. I won"t lose, and I won"t die."
"Cang Chu should be back by now. Zheyan, why don"t you go back and rest?" Mu Jin turned and said to Ning Zheyan.
After Ning Zheyan left, Mu Jin turned to Wei Yuanwei and said: "Go sleep with Su"er tonight, Cang Chu still doesn"t know that Feng Yin gave you the temporary antidote, I"m worried that Su"er will tell Cang Chu."
"What about you?" Wei Yuanwei"s tone was calm as well. There was still a month left, and if Fu Chen did not help Yao Yao, Wei Yuanwei believed that Mu Jin would definitely be able to resolve this matter well. She began to be uncertain.
"Let me study this sheepskin letter." Mu Jin"s tone was very calm, as he looked down at the ancient goatskin letter in his hand.
When Wei Yuanwei returned to the tent, she was shocked to find that Cang Chu was sitting on the headboard of the Su"er.
Wei Yuanwei"s heart tightened at first, but after that she remembered that she had been poisoned by the insect poison, and pretended to be puzzled as she asked, "You … What are you doing here? "
The corner of his mouth lifted into an exceptionally gentle smile, "Iris, I am the master of the Su"er. The first time I woke up, the person I saw was me and I am Cang Chu."
Wei Yuanwei"s face still looked confused. "Are you Mu Jin or who are you?"
"I am Cang Chu. Earlier, Mu Jin and I changed our ident.i.ties a little. Mu Jin used my ident.i.ty while I used Mu Jin"s ident.i.ty." Cang Chu opened his lips and explained a few sentences to Wei Yuanwei.
After that, his gaze landed on the soundly sleeping Su"er. Under the dim yellow light of the candle, the light in Cang Chu"s eyes were really very clear and also very beautiful.
However, this was just an illusion to confuse others.
"The master of the Su"er? I heard about it from Su"er. " The color in Wei Yuanwei"s eyes slightly moved, and then, she took a step forward. Following that, a rich yet faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers that seemed to exist at the side of the bed entered into Wei Yuanwei"s nose.
After Cang Chu heard this, he laughed, "Su"er talked in her sleep just now. She said that she wants to marry me when she grows up."
"s heart was immediately shocked. Su"er had the habit of talking in her sleep, when she walked to the bedside she said in a meaningless manner: "What does a child know, when he grows up, he probably would have already forgotten."
"You"re right." Cang Chu then stood up: "When she grows up, I will not be here anymore."
When Cang Chu"s blue and white robes swept past Wei Yuanwei"s eyes, a pale yellow osmanthus still stained with autumn dew was quietly placed beside Su"er"s pillow.
Wei Yuanwei"s first reaction was to think that Cang Chu had done something to the Su"er when she was no longer around.
He immediately took the bouquet of osmanthus flowers and asked, "Did you put this in?"
"You used to like osmanthus flowers very much. I accidentally saw them tonight, so I picked them for you." Cang Chu raised the corner of his lips. His smile was bright and dazzling, the color that his gla.s.s-like eyes revealed was extremely clear, it was so clean that it didn"t have any impurities.
Wei Yuanwei held the bouquet of osmanthus in her hand, and a rich fragrance wafted into Wei Yuanwei"s nose. That"s right, she liked the smell of the osmanthus the most.
This feeling was like a touch of tenderness being touched by iron blood.
However, this thought only lasted for a moment. Cang Chu"s greatest skill was to welcome people"s hearts.
"Is that so? Gui Hua truly smells good. You just said that when Su"er grows up, what do you mean you"re not here anymore? "Are you leaving?" Wei Yuanwei brought it to her nose and took a deep sniff. It was a very pure osmanthus fragrance.
"Yeah, I can"t stay here forever!" Cang Chu was still smiling, his voice was as cool as the summer wind blowing on his face.
"Did you just go to Mu Jin"s place?" Without waiting for Wei Yuanwei to speak, Cang Chu asked again.
Wei Yuanwei nodded at Cang Chu, trying her best to look friendly towards him.
"He...?"
"Don"t mention him!" When Cang Chu mentioned Mu Jin once again, his face revealed an impatient and disgusted expression. He wished he could stay far away from Mu Jin.
