【Kuan Xin】Snake and Venom

Wang Kuan stood silently with his hands behind his back, his eyes flickering, staring at a certain direction for a moment, with an unclear expression.

Zhao Jian looked at Wang Kuan's figure, even if the sun shrouded him, it couldn't drive away the boundless darkness on his body, Zhao Jian felt an inexplicable chill in her heart, walked up to Wang Kuan, and asked worriedly: "Wang Kuan, what are you doing?" gone?"

Wang Kuan regained his focus, still staring straight ahead, his eyes were so gloomy that water dripped out, he hooked the corners of his mouth inaudibly, and his voice was so soft that he seemed to be talking to himself: "Yuan Zhongxin asked me to believe him .”

Zhao Jian was taken aback by such an endless sentence: "What did you say?"

Wang Kuan looked down at the silent rippling stream under the bridge, his expression gradually became bewitching, his eyes twisted and paranoid, his voice was hoarse and trembling slightly: "He asked me to believe him, but I dare not... ...."

Zhao Jian frowned in thought, and suddenly, she somewhat understood the meaning of Wang Kuan's words.

I'm afraid that Yuan Zhongxin had already expected this dungeon, but in order not to worry them, Yuan Zhongxin kept it a secret.

Zhao Jian is not a fool, on the contrary, she is still very smart. When she knew that the name of Yuan Zhongxin was the only one on the imperial decree, she guessed that there must be someone secretly manipulating everything, and her purpose was to deal with Yuan Zhongxin , Yuan Zhongxin naturally knew about this, and had a plan to deal with it.

But other than that, Zhao Jian couldn't guess anything anymore. Yuan Zhongxin's heart was full of twists and turns. If he didn't say anything, it would be too difficult for others to guess what he was thinking.

Even Wang Kuan, who is most familiar with Yuan Zhongxin, has no clue, let alone Zhao Jian.

Zhao Jian also felt powerless. She sighed and said, "Wang Kuan, Yuan Zhongxin is the most miracle-working person I have ever met—you have no choice but to trust him."

Wang Kuan's nails sank into his palms, and the slightest tingling pain was not as severe as the heartbreak in his heart. For a moment, he felt that believing in Yuan Zhongxin would be the most difficult thing in the world.

Yuan Zhongxin is indeed very good at creating miracles, but which miracle was not achieved by him with his life?

To this day, he no longer dares to trust Yuan Zhongxin unreservedly. Ever since he knew that someone was secretly targeting Yuan Zhongxin, he has been living as if he were in hell every day, suffering a lot. The imperial decree turned into a sharp knife and pierced straight into his heart, making him want to collapse and life would be worse than death.

What did I get back for my repeated trust?

An imperial decree to force Yuan Zhongxin to die.

Wang Shenzheng is right, he has nothing, in the face of the real strength and power, his heart to Yuan Zhongxin is as humble as dust in the mud, useless, and in the end he is tied up.

Tick, tick.

Zhao Jian was startled to see water droplets dripping from her feet. She looked down, but what she saw was a small puddle of dazzling bright red. The white robe beside Wang Kuan was already stained with a few drops of blood, which scattered and scattered, which was shocking. , but Wang Kuan didn't realize it at all, his tightly clenched fists didn't loosen even half an inch.

Looking at Wang Kuan's side face, Zhao Jian could easily see his hysterical self-blame and uneasiness. Seeing her terrified, Zhao Jian quickly grabbed Wang Kuan's arm and shouted at a high volume: "Wang Kuan! Stop!"

Wang Kuan seemed to have never heard of it, his eyes were fierce, his eyes were bloodshot, and his body trembled.

Zhao Jian was so anxious that her hands and feet were flustered. If she kept going like this, it wouldn't take long for this guy to run away again. In desperation, she raised her hand and flexed her fingers, and slammed down on Wang Kuan's forehead, shouting sharply: "Wang Kuan! What are you doing?" I wake up! Do you hear me!"

The pain in the forehead made Wang Kuan stunned for a moment, his face was a little dazed, he looked at Zhao Jian at a loss, without saying a word.

Seeing his reaction like this, Zhao Jian's high-hanging heart slowly fell to the ground. She secretly sighed helplessly, and persuaded earnestly: "I know you are very worried and scared now, and you really want to help Yuan Zhongxin. Why don't we No, but caring will lead to chaos. If we act rashly, it is very likely that not only will we not be able to help Yuan Zhongxin, but it will also destroy his entire plan—the plan he has worked so hard to come up with. Are you going to destroy it like this? ?”

Wang Kuan lowered his eyes and remained silent, Zhao Jian's voice woke him up like a dream, and he was terrified in his heart, if Zhao Jian hadn't woken him up in time, he might have made a big mistake.Wang Kuan murmured, very confused: "Then what can I do, should I just watch him bear all this alone?"

Zhao Jian felt very uncomfortable, but she also had no choice: "It may be cruel to say so, but we do nothing, and believing in Yuan Zhongxin is the greatest help to him——Wang Kuan, these things, even if I Don't tell me, you should know better than me."

Wang Kuan's eyes wandered aimlessly in the air, and he remained silent, as if he was thinking about Zhao Jian's words. After a long time, he nodded slightly: "I understand."

Zhao Jian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the blood-stained hands worriedly: "Take care of the wound on your hand, don't make Yuan Zhongxin worry."

Wang Kuan Ruliu nodded obediently, and walked in the direction of the medical room.

Looking at his back, Zhao Jian's brows and eyes were full of worry. She didn't know much about "dragons have reverse scales, and they get angry when they touch them". She thought this sentence was stupid. To lose all sanity, that's an extremely stupid thing to do.

But now, she understands thoroughly.

Yuan Zhongxin is Wang Kuan's life gate, and even his reverse scale. In this world, there are probably only three words "Yuan Zhongxin" that can restrain the crazy Wang Kuan.

That night, Yuan Zhongxin lay on the bed early, looking up at the wooden carvings on his head in a daze. Just now, while talking with Xiaojing, Xiaojing gave him the first needle, the acupuncture points were sealed, and the poison Stuck on the main acupoints of his limbs and heart, Yuan Zhongxin felt physically and mentally exhausted. Now his limbs are weak and sore, as if burned by fire, even just carrying a bowl to eat is extremely difficult.

Xiao Jing said that this is a normal phenomenon, because it was the first time Yuan Zhongxin had so many acupuncture points sealed, and it took at least three hours to recover his strength.

He stared at the top faintly, sleepiness came in like a wave, and his reason was swept away, his eyelids drooped heavily, and he fell asleep slowly in a trance.

Wang Kuan pushed the door open and entered, and saw Yuan Zhongxin huddled in a corner, tucked up in the quilt, sleeping soundly with his head tilted. He turned around and closed the door gently, then took off his shoes and clothes quietly, got on the bed, and came to Yuan Zhongxin. Next to Zhong Xin, he leaned over and planted an extremely soft kiss between his brows and eyes.

He whispered and pondered: "Zhongxin..."

At this moment, Yuan Zhongxin seemed to have a sense, and slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were a little watery, his eyes were erratic, and it took a long time to focus on Wang Kuan's face, he was fascinated He blurted out, "Wang Kuan?"

Wang Kuan hugged Yuan Zhongxin into his arms and lay down on his side. He replied in a low voice, "I'm here."

Yuan Zhongxin was stunned for a moment, then called out again: "Wang Kuan."

"I'm here, what's wrong?"

Yuan Zhongxin was silent, his drooping eyes retracted into Wang Kuan's warm arms, his body became colder and colder due to the half-life invasion, he was actually afraid of the cold, with Wang Kuan around, his fear was unknown, inexplicable expanded several times.

He buried his head in Wang Kuan's heart, and said in a helpless tone, "I'm so tired."

Wang Kuan's fingertips trembled and turned pale. He bit the tip of his tongue and hugged Yuan Zhongxin more tightly. , sleep for a while and you'll be fine."

Yuan Zhongxin responded with a deep voice, his eyes were dark, his consciousness gradually drifted away, and the next moment, he fell into a complete coma.

Wang Kuan didn't let go, and just hugged Yuan Zhongxin all night, he was afraid that Yuan Zhongxin would disappear if he didn't pay attention, even though his arms were getting sore, he didn't relax his strength at all.

The next day, the six people from Qizhai gathered in the main hall early, looking intently at a piece of yellow paper that Yuan Zhongxin had laid out, with serious expressions on their faces.

What was drawn on that piece of yellow paper was a map of the Great Xia Dungeon.

The entrance of the dungeon is located in the southeast border of the Daxia territory, almost bordering the northwest border of the Song Dynasty. From the map, the overall direction of the dungeon roughly extends from east to west. At the entrance, there is an ancient forest. About fifty miles away is the city wall that must be passed through to penetrate into the hinterland of Daxia.

"We are accompanied by Fan Zaizhi, my brother, and another [-] cavalry troops. Because there are too many people, in order to avoid attracting the attention of the Daxia frontier military defense, we have to enter the Daxia border in batches. The first The first batch is me, Wang Kuan and the seven cavalry troops, the second batch is Zhao Jian, Xiao Jing and the seven cavalry troops led by Fan Zaizhi, the remaining cavalry troops will be led by my brother, Yanei and Xue You two will follow my brother then." Yuan Zhongxin drew a red circle at the entrance of the dungeon with a pen, and it was rare to be serious.

"Wang Kuan and I will be the first batch of people to enter Daxia. Once we successfully set up camp in the deep forest at the entrance of the dungeon, a cavalry army will return and tell you to set off. When we haven't received any news , any of you are not allowed to enter Daxia casually, no matter what the reason is, if you haven’t seen any of us for more than seven days, leave the country immediately and come back, don’t stay.”

Xue Ying frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "Then what should you do?"

Wang Kuan said: "We will play by ear. The most important thing is to ensure your own safety. If you find anything unusual, come back immediately."

Wei Yanei hesitated to speak: "But..."

Yuan Zhongxin shook his head firmly: "It's nothing to worry about. If you follow blindly, I'm afraid it will be more dangerous."

Zhao Jian naturally knew what Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan were taboo about. Although he was worried, he still said obediently: "We will pay attention to it. Besides, what Yuan Zhongxin and the others are talking about is only an emergency situation, and it may not necessarily happen. If it happens, let’s not worry about others.”
