The Young Emperor and the Fearless

gah...

With a piercing cry of a crow, He Li suddenly woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes, and saw the burning incense light on the table, and a vague figure.

Heli stood up in surprise, and before he could make a sound, he heard the other party say: "Did I wake you up?"

Juxie!

He Li relaxed and lay down again, still in shock, he said: "You scared me to death, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing up?"

Ju Xie went to the window lattice, closed the wooden window, returned to the bed, and said: "It's an insignificant matter, it's not worth mentioning, go on to sleep."

He Li turned his back to his direction, and said, "I can't sleep anymore, I've already woken up from the fright."

Ju Xie smiled silently and said, "Is the injury on your body better?"

He Li said: "It's a little itchy."

Ju Xie said: "That's good, it means that it is already healing."

It was strange to speak with his back to people. He Li simply lay down on the bed, turned his head in the same direction, and only saw the outline of Ju Xie's face in the dark night. He moved closer, sniffed at the tip of his nose, and said, "Your body smells fragrant. Very heavy."

Ju Xie said: "I just changed the incense, of course it's heavy."

He Lien spoke, and after a moment of silence, he said again: "Are you still asleep?"

Ju Xie said: "Don't sleep anymore, it will be dawn in a couple of hours, do you want to chat?"

He Li blinked, very interested: "What are you talking about?"

Ju Xie said, "Let's talk about the nightmare you just had."

What Juxie said was right, He Li had another nightmare.

It's still the endless desert, it's still the fierce man, it's still the body in extreme pain, it's still the vultures peeping at the corpse...

Only, there is a little difference.

He Li's eyes were as calm as water, and he spoke very softly, as if brought out with his breath, he said: "I dreamed that I killed someone."

**

The call of the ga was not actually the call of a crow, but the sharper call of a vulture.It wasn't him that vulture was staring at, but a pile of twisted corpses under his scimitar.

They died, and the blood under their bodies was like a river, flowing for a long time, as if to drown the entire desert, and to dye every grain of sand into bright red.

He Li said that he killed someone.

Killing someone in a dream is like killing someone in real life.

He could even feel the warmth and stickiness of the bright red spray on his face, no matter how much he rubbed it, he couldn't wipe it off.The blood was branded deep in his soul with a temperature as hot as iron, following him like a ghost.

True and false, unreal and unreal.

Heli had similar dreams countless times, and he couldn't tell the difference.

After a long time, Ju Xie said: "If you really killed someone, what would you do?"

He Li didn't think about this question, and didn't dare to think about it, so he had no choice but to bring out the dogma of the law and said: "The murderer pays with his life, and I... I can't be spared either."

Ju Xie said, "What if it's someone who deserves to die?"

He Li thought about it carefully, and asked back: "Who in the world deserves to die?"

Ju Xie said: "For example, the murderer of the missing child case, such as the murderer of Wang Zhiyuan, or the person who threatened your life, if you don't kill him, he will kill you."

He Li opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.

He fixedly looked at Ju Xie, who was close in front of him and was blurry. Ju Xie's eyes were like ink, in this dark night, he didn't know whether his eyes were stained by the night, or his eyes were drowned in the night.

He Li moved, then moved again, and buried his head in Juxie's chest.

Ju Xie put her arms around his shoulders and said, "Who do you think I am?"

He Li said: "Father...Father."

Ju Xie: "..."

He Li said again: "You are all very warm people."

Ju Xie's remarks to him sounded strange. I'm afraid no one would comment on him like that except him.Ju Xie said: "Oh, the specifics are like this, let's talk about it."

However, Heli was stuffy in his chest, hummed, and stopped talking.After a while, he moved his head out, changed the subject and said: "We have been delayed here for several days, why do we encounter some serious cases every time we go, is this world so chaotic? "

Ju Xie said: "The world is full of turmoil, and there is no rest. Even the monk's temple is not clean, not to mention the world is so big, and human nature is complicated. Naturally, strange things will happen. It's because you have a heart and want to solve it. .It cannot be encountered, nor does it mean that it does not exist, it just turns a blind eye and intervenes unintentionally."

He Li said: "Everything that happened here is coming to an end, right?"

He seemed to be asking for Juxie's opinion, but also seemed to be sighing to himself.

Ju Xie said: "It's almost over. Their crimes have been revealed. If you go to the trial today, everything will be revealed."

**

Before dawn, the cock crowed.

Because of the urgency of the situation, Su Yu didn't care whether he disturbed Sheng Jia, but before entering, he knocked on the door politely.

Unexpectedly, after a sound, Ting Heli asked inside: "Who is it?"

Listening to the sound, people have been awake for a while.

Su Yu pushed the door open and brought two people in.

A seventeen, a man in black.

Ju Xie got out of bed and lit the lamp, the dim yellow light came on, reflecting Shi Qi's blue face.Shi Qi was already dizzy, his face, neck, and hands seemed to be dyed with a layer of fuel, and the original skin color could no longer be seen.

Su Yu said: "Seventeen is poisoned, please show him, Mr. Ju."

Ju Xie felt Shiqi's pulse, checked his body for signs of poisoning, and said, "Go get a basin of cold water, hurry up."

Su Yu complied immediately, and brought the water within less than a stick of incense.

Ju Xie said: "You wipe his body, you don't need to take off his clothes, as long as you can see it, you have to wipe it."

Su Yu moved quickly and wiped it in a few strokes.

Ju Xie poured a cup of overnight tea, poured it into Shiqi's mouth, poured another cup, poured it in again, and didn't give up until there was no more tea.Ju Xie said, "Just wash him again."

It is not a highly toxic poison, but the common poisonous powder of Baizhe in No. [-], a chronic poison, easy to make and easy to detox, as long as the powder left on the skin is cleaned in time, and then the powder inhaled into the mouth and nose is diluted , the poison is almost cured.

Moreover, Shi Qi had a quick reaction. When someone made a secret move, he held his breath and didn't inhale much. Then he used his clothes to block half of the poisonous powder that was scattered in the air, so the symptoms were not very serious.

Ju Xie said: "Ask the doctor to prescribe a mediation medicine for him. After taking one dose, he will be fine."

Hearing this, Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Heli on the side turned his head in their direction, and after watching them finish their work, he asked, "What happened, why did Seventeen get poisoned?"

Su Yu pointed to the man in black who was thrown on the ground by him, and said, "He did it. Shi Qi followed the servant and was taken to a remote place. When I arrived, Shi Qi was fighting this man. He was the one who sprinkled the poisonous powder, after Seventeen was hit by the trick, he passed out, he wanted to withdraw, but I caught him."

The man in black was already physically weak, and Su Yu's skill was higher than his, so he subdued him with a dozen moves.

Su Yu said: "Young Master Li, there is one more thing. The servant who was following Shi Qi was pierced by a sword in the chest and died."

The domestic servant was an important person involved in the child's disappearance case. He knew some things behind it, as well as the identity of his master, so it was too unexpected for him to die like this.

He Li let the servant go on purpose in order to use him to catch the master who arranged for him to give false testimony. Shi Qi would not kill him, so he had to use up the master he wanted to silence.

He Li stared at the man in black for several times, and said, "Is he the one who followed their young master that day?"

Su Yu said: "Exactly."

That's just right, one died and another came again.

He Li suddenly remembered the question Ju Xie had just asked, what should he do if the damned person dies.

Judging from the matter in front of him, he didn't feel any regret at the death of the servant, on the contrary, he felt a sense of joy.If he killed it himself, he probably wouldn't be concerned about it and blame himself.

Maybe, if you just look at it from the outside, but don't go deep into it, the death of sinful, domineering, sinister, and vicious people will only please people's hearts.
