Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 171 Just Because He Promised Me

At this moment, the thoughts in Baili Jiuge's heart rushed out arrogantly, and the intensity almost forced her vigilance and calm back.She desperately wanted to turn her head to look at him, but the moment she turned around, Baili Jiuge held back.

The person behind him is not Mo Li, definitely not.

Mo Li is still in Luoyi, struggling painfully with the Yin-Yang curse in the burning courtyard, he is still thinking about her, and wants to see her go back safe and sound...

She must be firm in her will, and she must not fall into the trap just because the person who will appear next is Mo Li!
The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer, and finally, they were very close.

But at this moment, Baili Jiuge suddenly realized one thing.She thought of the incense in the censer.I remember that the altar and the incense burner were blurred together just now, and she couldn't see it, but now she can still smell the incense...

Jianghu experience told Baili Jiuge that there must be something strange about this matter.I'm afraid that the Niangqin and Hongxiao who just appeared are not just fakes.

And the Mo Li behind him is probably the same.

Thinking of this, Baili Jiuge took a deep breath, and said coldly: "Just tell me what you want to say, I don't have time to beat around the bush with you, I have to go to the top floor to find Long'er to save Mo Li!"

The footsteps behind him stopped, followed by a few weak coughs: "Ahem..."

When the voice passed by his ears, it caused ripples in Baili Jiuge's heart.picture!Too much like it!It's exactly the same!This coughing sound that would always make her heart clenched, at this moment, still caused her unavoidable heartache.

The person behind him asked in a melodious and quality voice like a chime, "Jiu Ge, why don't you dare look at me?"

Baili Jiuge stabilized his mood, and resolutely said: "It's not that I dare not, it's that there is nothing to see. I don't care who you are, I only know one thing, and that is, you must not be Mo Li."

"Jiuge..." The voice and tone were so familiar that it hurt Baili Jiuge's heart.

"Jiu Ge... I am running out of time, and this body has reached its limit. Now that I am dying, I have no other wish, but I just want to be with you for a little longer, even for a moment... Jiu Ge , turn around and let me see you, okay?"

Okay?

Baili Jiuge smiled, the corners of her lips curled up, cold and determined.

"Okay." She agreed, just sneered like this, and turned around.

The man was really standing in front of her, with elegant appearance and picturesque eyes, the crane cloak in white was gently swaying, and the big Epiphyllum flowers on the clothes were flying like snow.His hands were still hidden in the brocade that she had transformed. At this moment, his face was pale and almost transparent, and the bottom of his eyes was like a moonlight scooped up from a clear spring at night, and nothing had changed.

But Baili Jiuge just smiled quietly, and said: "You are nothing more than that, Yinyang Family."

The eyes of the person in front of him changed slightly.

Baili Jiuge sneered and said, "You are indeed exactly the same as Mo Li, but I will not be seduced by you. I turned around just to see how long your lies can last."

"Jiu Ge?" He murmured suspiciously, coughing weakly, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, "Jiu Ge, my lifespan is coming soon, stay with me for a while, okay..."

"Life limit?" After reading these two words coldly, Baili Jiuge's eyes were as bright as iron, and his red sleeves fluttered lightly.

"At a young age, you can say that your life span is approaching. Mo Li is not such a person!"

Her bright eyes were full of disgust, she just felt that the person in front of her made her sick.

He sneered: "Today, I am here to make my words clear. That day on the execution ground in the imperial capital, Mo Li personally promised me that I will live forever and will not die in anyone's hands. Promise me There is nothing else that can kill him except time. Since he promised me, he will never break his promise!"

He waved his sleeves fiercely, held the short knife in his hand, and shouted: "So you are not Mo Li! If I have to kill you to find Ziqi and the others, then I will never hesitate, just Because he promised me that he will go on together for the rest of his life!"

After the words fell, the red sleeves were raised, and the bright light of the short knife shone dazzlingly.Baili Jiuge swung the knife decisively!

At this moment, the ink in front of him suddenly became blurred, just like the altar and incense burner just now.When the knife fell, what was chopped up was like a wisp of green smoke, and there was no trace of it.

what happened? !
Before Baili Jiuge could think about it, a sense of darkness came into her mind. She suddenly felt a splitting headache, and when she subconsciously wanted to hug the top of her head, she suddenly shivered, as if being splashed by a basin of ice water. It seemed that he was sober all of a sudden.

Baili Jiuge staggered two steps, and suddenly saw the altar and incense burner in front of him, and the incense in the incense burner was still emitting thick smoke.But Ziqi and those men are all not far from her at this moment, but they all seem to be possessed by evil spirits, muttering words.

"Ziqi!" Baili Jiuge ran over.

Ziqi was pacing and yelling sadly: "Father! Mother! Second Uncle! Second Aunt! Come out of the ruins quickly, don't sleep underneath! Why is the whole city destroyed? This is Yin and Yang Didn’t the family do it?!”

Baili Jiuge was stunned.Ziqi, what are you talking about?
In the ears, the other men were also wailing, as if they were deeply trapped in some painful scene and couldn't extricate themselves.There were even two men who suddenly hissed and wailed, and then shot themselves at the top of the sky, committing suicide just like that!
Baili Jiuge gasped, suddenly understood everything, she shook her head and looked at the incense burner smoke.

That thing is not incense at all!It's a kind of drug in the world called "Huan Yi San"!This illusion will make the smoker see the indelible memory deep in his heart, and then fall into the illusion of memory!
If the will is not firm enough, you will not be able to wake up until the moment your body fails...

And it was Ying Chang'an, the poisonous doctor of Poppy Valley, who invented this illusion!That person, Baili Jiuge still remembers it clearly, when he was deeply trapped in the bandit's den, he was with that person.

Baili Jiuge was suddenly annoyed, if Ying Chang'an was in front of her right now, she would definitely kick him a few times.Why did such a thing as Huan Yi San be invented and spread in the rivers and lakes?This is a good thing, it was used by the Yin Yang family, and in turn harmed the people in Qihua Valley.

Ying Chang'an is simply holding back the Qihua Valley!

Thinking about it, Baili Jiuge grabbed Ziqi's wrist with one hand and shouted: "Ziqi, wake up soon! Have you forgotten Han Chan's warning? Where is your willpower? You just let Mo Li Waiting for us in such pain?!"

But no matter how much Baili Jiuge shook and shouted, Ziqi just wouldn't wake up, the halo in his pupils gradually became hollow, and all his consciousness shrank and almost disappeared...

At this moment, Baili Jiuge suddenly heard something.

She looked over quickly and took a sharp breath.

snake!
A lot of snakes, like those seen in the forest of death, are crawling out from every corner of the hall at this moment, the speed is frightening!

Before Baili Jiuge could protect Ziqi, a man over there was bitten by a snake, and he seemed to wake up for a moment.But the highly poisonous venom quickly killed him, and the group of snakes snaked up, biting his body.

Baili Jiuge hurriedly wanted to take out the antisnake medicine, but he fiddled with it under the skirt for a long while, but he couldn't get it out.Only then did I realize that the snake medicine had been used up!

Damn, no time!
Baili Jiuge raised his dagger and jumped up.

What about snakes?Come one, she cuts one, never let these things bite Ziqi!
The group of snakes attacked, and Baili Jiuge stood in the middle, facing the bloody mouth in all directions, swinging his knife like lightning.

The red skirt flew up and was stained with blood. The snake's head, snake's tail, and broken body... were cut into countless pieces and flew everywhere.

At this moment, Baili Jiuge is like guarding a thunder pool, and no one can surpass it!

During the fierce battle, a snake was beheaded to death in front of Ziqi, and the snake's blood sprayed her all over the face.

Ziqi shuddered all over, and was finally awakened by the icy snake blood, and said in a daze, "Sister Heifeng, what's going on?"

Baili Jiuge laughed eloquently: "You finally woke up! I don't have time to explain to you right now, so hurry up and spill the snake medicine!"

Ziqi was stunned, and immediately realized the situation of the two of them, and quickly sprinkled the snake medicine as quickly as possible.

The group of snakes was finally wiped out, the broken corpses were scattered all over the ground, and the stench was pungent.

With a flash of red, Jiuge arrived at the altar in an instant, kicked the entire table in half with a raised leg.

The censer fell heavily to the ground, and the muffled sound of the bronze utensils echoed throughout the hall. Baili Jiuge flipped in mid-air, precisely landed on the fallen incense, and stomped out the incense with one foot.

Then, he jumped up and landed in front of the three men who were still crazy, and kicked them three times in a row.

As the three fell to the ground, they finally woke up. At this moment, their bodies were in excruciating pain, and they stood up moaning in pain. Only then did they see the snake corpses all over the ground in horror, including the corpses of three companions.

Seeing this, Baili Jiuge breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at the men. There were dozens of them when they entered the tower, but now, there are only three left.

Involuntarily sighing for the lost life in his heart, Baili Jiuge walked up to Ziqi, carefully pinched up a corner of his sleeve, and wiped the snake blood on Ziqi's face.

Ziqi hurriedly said: "Just now I have a problem with my willpower, and it took a lot of effort to make sister Heifeng, so don't wipe it for me now, I think I will be like this, maybe I can call the one upstairs Long The scum of my son is scared!"

Baili Jiuge couldn't help laughing, he was curious about what Ziqi had just yelled out in hallucination, but he didn't intend to ask.Who doesn't have a secret?In the future, if Ziqi can untangle her heart, she can ask again.

So he said: "Let's go, it's finally time to meet that Long'er."

"it is good!"

The two walked down the stairs firmly.

The moment he stepped onto the ninth floor, Baili Jiuge heard his heart beating violently.

It's finally here, this ordeal of a narrow escape has finally come to the last moment.

She raised her head and stepped into the hall on the top floor.

Mo Li, wait for me!

I'll find that Long'er right now, and break the spell for you!

Ninth floor, the last floor of the Tower of Nine Deaths, at this moment, Hei couldn't see his fingers.

Baili Jiuge and Ziqi held hands, stepped on the creaky wooden floor, and walked forward step by step.

At some point in the darkness, a woman's voice sounded.

"People who came to the top floor, listen up, no matter how many people you come, only one person will be able to see the gods in the end..."

This is Long'er's voice!

Baili Jiuge roared subconsciously: "Long'er, don't play tricks, don't come out yet!"

But in the dark, the voice said with a ferocious smile: "If you want to see the gods, you must kill your companions and become the last one alive. Well, let me wish you good luck here first."

hateful!

Baili Jiuge subconsciously clenched Ziqi's little hand, but at this moment, she heard the three men's breathing began to move agitatedly, she heard the sound of their clenched weapons, and heard their ready to explore the target... ...As if, they were ready to listen to what Long'er said!

The next moment, the three men attacked Baili Jiuge and Ziqi at the same time, as if they had discussed it in advance.

Due to the darkness around them, everyone can only fight by hearing and perception.Ziqi let go of Baili Jiuge, and a thin silver thread was held between his small hands.

This cannibalism started like this, and they couldn't help panting for breath, so they could only fight with a short knife.

The other party is also somewhat cultivated, and it is hard to tell how cruel and dangerous it is to fight with their lives in the dark.

During the fight, Baili Jiuge felt that he had slit the opponent's throat. Because of the force, the man's warm blood was all sprayed on Baili Jiuge's face, and she was burned so badly.

Another person fell to the ground with a crash, and the sound of round things rolling across the wooden floor was heard.Baili Jiuge knew that it was the person whose head was cut off by Ziqi.

No, this kind of battle is really too cruel, she doesn't know how she fought it...

It wasn't until the sharp knife pierced a person's chest, and at the same time, that person's head flew out, that Baili Jiuge tremblingly pulled out the dagger, listening to the sound of Ziqi pulling up the thread, gasping for air.

"Long'er..." she growled, "Why are you so cruel! When the gods of the Tower of Nine Deaths said it, they simply spread rumors. They didn't know that this was the stronghold of your Yin-Yang family! But you took advantage of this and played tricks on you!" The hearts of these people killed them all. How is your conscience?!"

"Hahaha... Baili Jiuge, do you feel distressed? It's right to feel distressed!"

Long'er laughed wildly: "You just wanted to find an excuse to kill yourself, so you pushed it on me. Since you don't want them to die so much, why don't you be killed by them honestly? The one who took their lives in the end , isn't it you?!"

Baili Jiuge was choked, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Ziqi scolded angrily: "You are mentally ill! No wonder you came up with those perverted tricks and tricks. I think you deserve a beating. If you don't save my brother, I'll cut off your head!"

Long'er smiled contemptuously: "I originally wanted the two of you to kill each other, and in the end only one will be left, but now I have changed my mind."

There were three claps in the darkness.

In an instant, the entire hall was brightly lit.

Because the light of the fire was so sudden, Baili Jiuge and Ziqi covered their eyes with their sleeves at the same time. From the corner of their eyes, they saw the three men killed by the two of them.

But Baili Jiuge knew clearly that there was no time to worry about that now, she had to negotiate with Long'er.So he quickly took off his sleeves and looked forward.

When seeing Long'er, Baili Jiuge froze.

In front of him, the young woman was no longer wearing a green dress with long sleeves and a pink face with peach makeup, but her face was as white as snow, her lips were painted black, and her eyes were cold with hatred.

She slowly got up from a reclining chair, her black hair covered the edges of her cheeks, she looked like a ghost fox girl in a fairy tale, she was indescribably eerie.

She stood up, wearing a thin black dress and mopping the floor, causing Baili Jiuge to gasp slightly again.

I have seen many people in black clothes in my life, like Yin Haochen's stern and cold, upright, like Mo Yi's clear ink, handsome and unrestrained... But I have never seen anyone who can be like the woman in front of me. There is only one breath.

The breath of death.

Yes, the breath of death.It's not like Yin Liehuo's depression and withering, but a kind of dead air with no business, just as desperate and ferocious as a ghost!

"Are you..." Baili Jiuge couldn't help muttering, watching Long'er approaching, he also saw ink-colored paintings on Long'er's cuffs and clothes...

Butterfly? !
No, that's not a butterfly.But... moths? !

Inky moth?
A strange feeling flashed in Baili Jiuge's heart, she thought of the ink butterflies on Mo Yi's clothes.

Butterfly...moth...black butterfly...black moth...

Is this just a coincidence?

Baili Jiuge couldn't help but want to think deeply, but at this moment, her thoughts were interrupted by Long'er.

"You two, welcome here."

She stretched out her arms, and several middle-aged men and women who were kneeling on the ground on both sides as if serving her stood up and surrounded her.

"Si Long, Lord of the Yin-Yang Family, sincerely welcome you two to climb to the top of the Tower of Nine Deaths. This tower is my most perfect work, and you are so lucky to be able to appreciate all of it. Even I We are all honored for you, hahaha..."

Baili Jiuge was surprised.This person is really one of the Yin-Yang Nine Spirit Lords!

Si Long, Lord of the Undead... Her surname is Si, which is too rare.

wait!Baili Jiuge suddenly remembered that she seemed to have seen this surname somewhere!
Where is it, damn it, why can't I remember it now?
But Ziqi said unceremoniously: "People with mental problems don't brag about themselves here. Sister Heifeng and I have already arrived. You should follow your promise and undo the curse for my senior brother!"

Si Long raised her lips and sneered: "Promise? Why don't I remember what I promised you? Did I say that I would undo the curse for Prince Zhou?"

"You—" Ziqi stomped his feet angrily, and scolded: "Fortunately, I still had a little hope, thinking that you were the best friend Long'er that my master said. Now it seems that I don't believe that you are crazy if you are killed. My master's friend!"

Si Long's face suddenly darkened.

Baili Jiuge was stunned on the spot. At this moment, he finally remembered where he had seen the surname "Si".

It was the book that recorded the Penglai Kingdom that she had read in the Zangshu Pavilion in the imperial capital!
It is said that the surname of the Penglai royal family is Xia, which is the political leader of the country; the surname of the saintess family is Jing, which is the spiritual symbol of the people.There are also the Si family who guard the royal family, and the Duan family who assist the saint.

Si... Duan...

As Duan Yao also said, she has a close friend in her boudoir whose baby name is Long'er...

Baili Jiuge said in shock: "Are you a member of the Si family who protects the Penglai royal family?!"

And Duan Yao is a member of the Duan clan who guards the lineage of the saint?

If this Si Long is really Duan Yao's childhood friend, then how could Si Long's age...
