Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 493 Struggling
It's not that Gui Chen has never seen Ying Baoyue get injured.

From the former Qin Dynasty to the Southern Chu Dynasty, they can be said to have rushed a bloody road. She has suffered from arrow wounds and knife wounds. Even if she is injured, she can always avoid the vital points.

But this time is different.

Gui Chen looked at Ying Baoyue whose face was enveloped by black air, and whose body froze for an instant. His pupils narrowed and he looked at He Lancheng who quickly retreated back under the tree after a successful blow, "You guys!"

He just stabbed He Lancheng a little and stopped attacking. Instead, he put his sword into its sheath as if everything had been done, and looked at the girl with a stagnant figure showing a weird smile.

It's not like he stopped halfway.Gui Chen looked at the wound on Ying Baoyue's shoulder that was only faintly bleeding.

He Lancheng's sword was also poisoned!

"What are you looking at, kid," He Lancheng looked at Gui Chen contemptuously after noticing Gui Chen's gaze, "You might as well think about how to collect your princess's body for a trash who is about to die."

At this moment, as if responding to his words, Ying Baoyue clenched the clothes on his chest and stumbled forward, "It hurts..."

Gui Chen reached out to help her, but because of his weakness, both of them hit the tree trunk heavily, and finally fell into the mud of the swamp.

"It hurts, doesn't it?" He Lancheng's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the pale girl and the muddy master and servant not far away.The feeling of being suppressed in the verbal confrontation with this girl just now cleared up instantly.

"Since you don't take the guard's life seriously, princess, I have no choice but to let Your Highness share weal and woe with the guard," He Lancheng grinned as he looked at the girl crying for pain under the tree.

He also thought how special this so-called princess who won the first-level grand ceremony and the first place in the crowd battle could be. She was not a delicate and expensive lady who was afraid of pain, blood, suffering, and embarrassment!

Even the rumors in the market think highly of this woman.

This woman still wants to be the leader?Stronger than those practitioners who participated in the elementary ceremony?

It just makes people laugh out loud.

He Lancheng didn't know what tricks this woman had used to confuse everyone and the examiner to come here, but no one knew the hypocrisy of these princes and nobles better than him. Sure enough, when he heard what he said, the woman's voice finally showed a trace of fear .

"You... poison..."

"You people from the Northern Wei Dynasty actually put poison on your sword!" Gui Chen, who was supporting Ying Baoyue, took a deep breath, and shouted at He Lancheng with the last of his strength, "How dare you dare to treat the royal family...the royal family..."

"What's wrong with the royal family?" He Lancheng laughed loudly, "I'm not the master of our Northern Wei people. What do I have to do with the life and death of the former Qin people?"

Even if they are the children of the Northern Wei royal family, they have to give a bit of scorn to their Beihan Pavilion disciples, not to mention the former Qin royal family that is the most despised in the whole continent.

"It's just an abandoned son," he looked at Ying Baoyue and sneered.

"Your Highness, believe it or not, even if you die here now, the former King of Qin will suppress your funeral in order to marry our princess from the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

Ying Baoyue's eyes seemed to have become frozen under a huge blow, and Gui Chen looked at He Lancheng with his eyes cracked.

"So what's the matter with the poison on the sword?" He Lancheng didn't even bother to cover up this time. "The first round of the individual battle is to allow practitioners to poison each other."

"This poison is specially prepared for Her Royal Highness. It's different from you." He Lancheng looked at Ying Baoyue, who had an unbearable pain on his face, and Gui Chen, who had despairing eyes. People die in excruciating pain, which is most suitable for a weak woman like you who can't bear the pain."

Seeing the girl who started crying out of pain as expected, he sneered and said, "Princess, if you don't want to be hurt to death, just hand over the schisandra."

"I..." Ying Baoyue clenched her teeth, but her body couldn't move as if filled with lead, and her eyes turned black.

"Do you still want to struggle?" He Lancheng looked at the woman who was clearly in pain and laughed, "I see how long you can last, do you have to wait for me to come and search the princess, it is you, the princess. want?"

He Lancheng rolled up his sleeves, looked at the two people who were immobile under the tree, and looked a little eager to try, but at this moment, a hoarse male voice suddenly sounded beside Ying Baoyue.

"Don't come here, I...I'll give it to you."

He Lancheng opened his eyes wide, looked at the young man under the tree who said this with a gray expression, he was startled and then burst out laughing.

"That's right," he looked at Gui Chen and said, "Why do we have to go grab it?"

"You can't do anything else if you're just waiting for rank nine, but trash can come in handy." He Lancheng squinted at Gui Chen, "It seems that you know more about current affairs than your princess."

"Guichen, you..." Ying Baoyue turned paler and looked at the boy beside him.

"Nothing is more important than your life, Your Highness." Gui Chen took a deep breath, stretched his trembling hands into his arms, and took out a herb with reddish tips.

The moment they saw the herb, the eyes of all the teenagers present lit up.

"Sure enough, it's hidden!" He Lancheng excitedly strode towards Gui Chen, grabbing the herbs in his hand.

"Wait...wait..." Gui Chen tightly clenched the schisandra in his hand, "The antidote..."

"Hmph," He Lancheng took out the previous pill and threw it in front of Gui Chen's eyes, and took the herbal medicine away instantly when the young man in front of him lost his mind.

Gui Chen grabbed the pill, but found that it was only the antidote for the first "snake venom".

"Wait," he grabbed He Lancheng's clothes, "His Royal Highness's antidote..."

He Lancheng turned his head and sneered, "Of course, one schisandra plant can only be exchanged for one antidote, so you princess..."

He looked down at the girl who fell on the ground, and suddenly his eyes darkened, "Wait, did you pick two plants?"

Gui Chen's pupils shrank, as if he was in an ice cellar.

How did this man find out?
"Haha, that's true!" He Lancheng laughed, "No wonder she said that this woman would not hand over the schisandra easily, and once she did, she had to guard against fraud."

she says?Gui Chen stared blankly at He Lancheng who was in front of him when he heard the words.

who said it?
"Get away... there's only one tree..." Ying Baoyue's hand sneaked into her arms, but the next moment He Lancheng grabbed her wrist with sharp eyes and pulled it out!

Ying Baoyue opened her eyes wide.

He Lancheng looked at another thin herbal plant between her fingers, and a gleam flashed in front of his eyes.

"Sure enough, there is still a plant hidden!" He exclaimed excitedly, admiring the despair in the girl's eyes, he felt refreshed.

Ying Baoyue suddenly wanted to withdraw her hand, "This can't be given to..."

"Don't you guys already have a plant?" Gui Chen held on to He Lancheng's clothes tightly.

"It's true that there is a plant, but..." He Lancheng looked at Ye Siyuan, who was not far away, who also had a happy expression, "We agree to Mr. Ye's conditions, but we must ensure that there is no one from the former Qin Dynasty."

Of course, their own masters asked them to do the same.

Gui Chen was taken aback for a moment, then his heart turned cold.

"So, just bring it!" He Lancheng slowly separated Ying Baoyue's fingers one by one, and snatched the last thin Schisandra schisandra from her hand.

"Give it back to me..." Ying Baoyue stretched out her hand.

The fingertips of the two grazed in the air.

But this young girl has no strength at all, so she doesn't know the point of doing so.Sure enough, he was poisoned and stupid.

He Lancheng looked at the woman who was struggling uselessly, looked at his palm triumphantly, then threw another antidote into the mud, and looked down at her.

"I also have to thank the former Princess Qin for her hard work. I was able to pick two trees." He stood up and looked at Ying Baoyue with a smile.

"Who is there!?" However, at this moment, another voice suddenly came from not far away.

He Lancheng's eyes froze for a moment, but then he narrowed his eyes slightly when he looked at the three or two figures that appeared not far away.

"From Soochow?"
