Chapter 284 Love Poison or love deeply
Zhu Quan glared at Bai Yangbai, “Nonsense. You must be trying to take her away, so you lie to me with such words! There is always no truth in your mouth, and even the devil won’t believe you!”
He tightened the quilt in his arms and looked around, as if he was finding whether there was any soul about to dissipate. Then, he coughed violently with blood spurting out of his mouth, and accidentally sprayed the blood on Concubine He, whose forehead was stained red. He scrambled to wipe it with his sleeve, but the more he wiped, the redder it became, and he finally scratched her skin a little.
Zhu Quan shouted in distress, “Scratched!” He ran to Bai Yangbai, begging him, “Uncle, I know you can fix it. I can give you my position. Look, it’s a bit broken here!” With every word he spoke, a little blood spurted outwards, some of it dripping down onto Concubine He’s cheek, but he didn’t dare to wipe it again, only to hold up Concubine He’s head, which was covered in a cascade of black hair, to Bai Yangbai.
Bai Yangbai opened her eyelids to check. At this time, her eyes had turned black again, a kind of deadly black. Bai Yangbai sighed, and put his uninjured right hand into the quilt to check her. While coughing up blood, he asked Zhu Quan, “Why have you been coughing up blood since a while ago? Are you injured, too?”
Zhu Quan replied carelessly, “I don’t know. I might be injured by Gao Shenjun. Uncle, can you fix this skin? Do you know how to preserve her body for a long time?”
Zhu Quan’s cheeks grew redder and redder, almost turning into a bright peach color. Bai Yangbai was stunned when he raised his head, pondering something with a puzzled expression. Zhu Quan impatiently fanned himself with his hand, and then took the quilt into his arms. Then he turned to walk towards the bed and said, “You go outside and take your time to think. Yiyi and I haven’t had enough pleasure yet, and I heard her calling me again. Come and help her again when you think of a way to cure her. She would be angry with me if she comes down from heaven and finds that her body is broken.”
Bai Yangbai took a few steps after him, which made the pain of his left shoulder onset. He fell to his knees with a cold breath. Then he suddenly raised his head and shouted, “Quan, check your pericardium channel. Hurry up!”
Zhu Quan pouted unpleasantly. He put the quilt back on the bed, lay down with the quilt, and said, “Yiyi said that if you don’t leave, you will be locked in the Water Dungeon! I don’t mind making out in front of you, but Yiyi is very shy.” Zhu Quan then touched the pale face exposed in the quilt with his peachy cheeks and stretched out his tongue to lick a drop of blood from her face. Then he suddenly said, “Yes, I should wipe it with water. It won’t break with water...”
Bai Yangbai was so angry that he exclaimed, “You are infected by a venomous insect! It’s Love Poison, an uncurable poison! Look at your pericardium channel!”
Zhu Quan looked down impatiently and saw that a golden thread grew from his precordium, winding his upper left arm along the meridian of the pericardium channel, and slowly climbing towards the palm of his left hand and fingertips. He asked in surprise, “What is this?”
Bai Yangbai shook his head and sighed, “I can’t find out what kind of poison she has been infected with. I can only find that the poison is extremely powerful, and will eventually consume her soul, making it impossible for her to reincarnate. I was angry and hated you when I saw how haggard she looked. I couldn’t help being selfish and lied that she was dying soon. I wanted to take her body away to gather her soul. After saving her... I will take her away. But seeing your great sadness, I thought of giving you a little more time for farewell out of my sympathy. Unexpectedly, you made out with her... Quan, you are infected in Love Poison now, and you will not live long.”
Zhu Quan’s eyelids drooped, and he rested his jaw against the top of Concubine He’s head. A line of blood slowly flowed into her black hair and then disappeared. He said lazily, “This demonstrated that Yiyi has changed her mind and wants to pick me up to heaven. Uncle, you can leave now. There’s no need for you to treat her injuries. We are going to heaven to enjoy ourselves.”
Bai Yangbai said in exasperation, “Wake up! You must have been controlled by the fire poison of Love Poison, and even lose the ability to think normally! Seal the meridians and use force to suppress the spread of toxins. Perhaps I can still think of a way to save you! Don’t lose your mind!”
Zhu Quan replied slowly, “I can’t be awake anymore. Yiyi and I both don’t like you. You’re interfering with our sleep. Get away from here!”
Bai Yangbai struggled towards the bed and said coldly, “I must save her. Love Poison will only make you go to reincarnation after you die, but she even can’t be reincarnated because her soul scattered. I promised before that I would protect her from death and save her even if she has been dead. I must save her.”
Zhu Quan frowned at Bai Yangbai and asked, “Are you telling the truth? Didn’t you lie to us?”
Bai Yangbai calculated with his fingers and said in a deep voice, “There are two hours left. After that, she will be completely melted. Then even the paper you burn in front of her memorial tablet will not be lighted. I’m not lying this time. Although I don’t know what kind of poison is in her body, I heard that the people in Miao Territory have a saying of ‘feeding a poison with another poison’. It’s using a lower level of poison to feed a more poisonous and powerful poison. I guess, the person who raises the poison must feed Love Poison to another kind of poison as food. It is easy to imagine that how poisonous that poison is since you can’t withstand it and want to die with her!”
After hearing this, Zhu Quan frowned and retorted, “I’m not controlled by Love Poison. It’s just a kind of insect. How could I be manipulated by it? I just suddenly realized that Yiyi is the best person in this world. I’m going to find her. When she is happy, she will treat me as well as before. Uncle, could you please save her and let us be a joyful couple? I know you can do it.”
Bai Yangbai coughed up another mouthful of blood, glared at him and said, “You have lost your mind by Love Poison. I can’t believe you. Seal the meridians quickly. Go to the door and blow a cool breeze. I need to save her!”
Zhu Quan got out of bed obediently. After he took two steps, he turned around and said, “Don’t peek at her and touch her.”
Bai Yangbai straddled on the quilt like Zhu Quan just now. He took out a bright yellow amulet paper from his sleeve, and slapped it on Concubine He’s forehead, muttering something in his mouth. Then he lifted the quilt, but he was stopped by Zhu Quan. He handed another piece of amulet paper to Zhu Quan and said, “Post it on her belly button quickly and precisely while reading the Bai Tong Can I Ching-Volume II silently in your heart!”
Bai Yangbai turned his back. Then Zhu Quan opened the quilt carelessly, posted the amulet paper and covered the quilt. Then he asked Bai Yangbai to turn around. Bai Yangbai poured something smoking into Concubine He’s mouth. After a while, a small red flame came out of it. Bai Yangbai stared at Zhu Quan and asked, “What’s the matter? Why isn’t it a blue flame?”
Zhu Quan yawned, lying aside the quilt, and replied indifferently, “I don’t know.”
Bai Yangbai continued to stare at him and asked, “Did you recite the Bai Tong Can I Ching?”
Zhu Quan closed his eyes and muttered dreamily, “Who remembers that?”
When Bai Yangbai was about to ask more, there was an explosion of light outside the house, accompanied by a loud bang and smoke, and the house shook as if a huge earthquake occurred, shaking all the hanging objects inside. All the candles, lamps and lanterns in front of the porch and inside and outside the house, regardless of the existence of lamp oil, burned with blazing white. Several pots of withered chrysanthemums in the room were instantly revived, and the green leaves made people a creepy feeling. The next moment, all the buds came out in full bloom with big phoenix flowers.
He Danggui outside the wall was also shocked. She saw that a bottle of winter plum with dead branches in the corner of the room was also blossoming with several buds though without roots, interlaced on the purple plum branches, seemingly about to spit out flowers. What was this strange scene? Was it brought by Bai Yangbai’s skills?
Bai Yangbai was equally surprised, staring at the large house that suddenly appeared outside the window, and asked, “What are those things?”
Zhu Quan clung to the quilt and replied in a daze, “I don’t know.”
He Danggui stared at the scene out of the window with an unbelievable expression. The house... Could it be the house in the Ting Zhu Yard of Luo’s Mansion in Yangzhou City? However, most of the houses were teetering. How did the house thousands of miles away get here? That was a cloud of houses, beyond the power of humans!
Bai Yangbai said to Zhu Quan, “The tactical matrix that I made outside the mansion was destroyed. I don’t know if someone deliberately destroyed it to prevent me from saving her, or this is her destiny that someone unintentionally touched the joint. Now that the tactical matrix has been destroyed, there is no possibility of reversal. I don’t know where this house is going to take us, but as long as there is a chance to save her, I will try it. It’s my promise to her. Let her go. I will take her into the house!”
Zhu Quan clung to the quilt and refused to let it go. He snorted coldly, “This is clearly a show you are putting on to scare me into handing over Yiyi. You can’t fool me. She is mine.” When he said this, two lines of bloody tears flowed out of his eyes with deeper color, and finally turned into dark thick blood, which looked very terrifying.
Bai Yangbai punched the bedpost, and shouted with hatred, “It’s too late! Your Love Poison attacks. I asked you to seal the meridians. Why didn’t you listen to me? You could have been saved!”
Zhu Quan’s hand grasped forward vainly and asked questioningly, “Yiyi, have you covered my eyes? Why did it suddenly turn black?”
Bai Yangbai shed a tear, and asked, “Do you have any last words?”
Zhu Quan was silent for a moment, and said, “If you don’t want to be Lord Ning, go find Chang Nuo to do it. I have 30,000 fearless warriors, and once I die, Zhu Di will not let them go. Let Lord Ning continue to live in the mansion.”
Bai Yangbai shook his head and sighed, “If you had listened to me, gave up those unrealistic things far from you and cherished the person who accompanied you, you wouldn’t have had such a tragic ending. Love Poison has revealed your true temperament, but now it’s too late to say anything...”
Zhu Quan yelled violently, “It’s none of the poison’s business. I have always had such a good relationship with Yiyi. You must be jealous!”
Bai Yangbai was also anxious, “Let her go. She doesn’t belong here anymore. I will perform the tactical matrix again after a while and see if there is a chance to save her. I will write a letter for you, and you wait here for the rescuer. I will take her into the house...”
Bai Yangbai was interrupted because the quilt in Zhu Quan’s arms flew straight out towards the dark ruins outside the room, which happened in an instant. The whole quilt, like an arrow from the string, disappeared into the unknown existence in a blink of an eye.
Bai Yangbai grabbed the quilt vainly, which affected his injury. Then he sprayed another blood mist. He pressed his injured left shoulder, step by step towards the outside of the room, saying, “Sorry, I can’t write a letter for you, but you can write one for me. You just write that the skills of Daguomen Sect disappear from now on, and all the relics of our school are in the outskirts of Yangzhou City. Ask the Seventh Childe of the Meng’s Family to look for them.” While saying, he approached the weird house.
The blind Zhu Quan fumbled on the bed and said angrily, “Bai Yangbai, you cheated me again! You stole my Yiyi. Return her to me, and no one can snatch her away!”
Zhu Quan flew out and struck Bai Yangbai aside with a palm. Then he rushed straight into the ruins. The harsh voice of Bai Yangbai who was about to recite Bai Tong Can I Ching-Volume III, and the sound of the explosion sounded in the sky at the same time. The whole house rose from the ground and disappeared into the dark void instantly. No one knew whether it had flown into the boundless starry sky, or into the cliff far below the ground.
There was red flesh and blood that had turned into numerous points suspending in the sky, which might belong to one of them, or both of them.
“Pop!” Something fell at the feet of Bai Yangbai.
He picked up the broken transparent green jade and recognized that as the ring clasp on Zhu Quan’s crown, which made him have a mixed feeling.
He Danggui stared blankly at the tragic scene on the wall, feeling unbelievable. Those “soul fragments” mixed in the blue thorn stars, and pieces of memories making Zhu Quan become extremely weird, turned out to be Zhu Quan from the previous life!
It turned out that the sacrifice that traveled through time and space was not Bai Yangbai, but the Zhu Quan with Love Poison!
