Chapter 120: Double Soul Devouring Gu (6)
After a long time, Zhao Ziyan had recovered and was watching Wang Ye treating Zhao Ziheng's wounds. Xiuying had also calmed down and started to help Wang Ye. This went on for a long time, and time seemed to pass very slowly, but no one noticed.
It was unknown how long it had been, but when Wang Ye had bandaged Zhao Ziheng's wound again, Zhao Ziheng regained consciousness, and with Wang Ye's help he sat up...
"Tell me, has it gotten worse again?"
Zhao Ziheng's weak voice made people sad. When asking, Xiuying subconsciously turned her head away, because she couldn't and didn't dare to look at Zhao Ziheng in this situation.
"Yes, so you should rest more now."
Wang Ye was a little hesitant when answering , but he still answered with one sentence.
Zhao Ziheng was half-believing and half-doubting Wang Ye's words, but he didn't care. He turned his gaze to Zhao Ziyin and asked: "How is the situation in Lianguo?"
"I came here for this matter as well. My father, King Zhenhou, begged me to go into battle." Zhao Ziyu answered as if he had been prepared.
"Zhenhou Wang? Well, he might be the best candidate."
At first he was a little surprised at what Zhao Ziyan said, but he understood it in a flash. Although he knew very well that this battle was meaningless, he could not fight. If he escaped from the wrath of Lian Guo, only ordinary people would be implicated. Therefore, no matter from what perspective, this battle was inevitable. Only by facing and accepting it, and then winning, would there be a chance of reconciliation.
"What is the current situation in Zhou Kingdom?" Zhao Ziheng asked again.
"Under the leadership of King Zhou and King Jing, the Zhou Kingdom has begun to recover lost territory, but that is only the enemy's vanguard. The most worrying thing is the movement of the Xia Kingdom. They have stationed troops on the border of the Zhou Kingdom but have not made any moves. I have no idea what they want to do."
Zhao Ziyu replied that he was also thinking about this problem while he was speaking, but no matter from which angle he considered it, he still could not come to a conclusion and just felt it was incredible.
Obviously, Zhao Ziheng was also thinking about the problem that Zhao Ziyin mentioned, but before he could figure it out, he realized that he could not concentrate. Even if he forced himself to concentrate, he could not do it. Once he gathered his mind, it would immediately disperse. In this way, Zhao Ziheng's forehead unknowingly seeped many beads of sweat, and his face gradually turned pale.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured and let us handle this matter. Please don't worry."
Wang Ye interrupted Zhao Ziheng's thoughts at the right time and woke up Zhao Ziyin at the same time. He then noticed Zhao Ziheng's abnormality and immediately felt guilty.
At this moment, Wang Ye’s words had just fallen when Zhao Ziheng raised his hand to cover his mouth, and then black liquid overflowed from between his fingers. Wang Ye and others were suddenly shocked.
"emperor!!"
Wang Ye was frightened by the sudden change, and he immediately stepped forward to support Zhao Ziheng. Zhao Ziheng's face was pale and black liquid was flowing out from between his fingers. Xiuying was shocked at first, and then immediately took a clean towel to wipe it for Zhao Ziheng. Zhao Ziheng could no longer speak, and his mind was blank, with blood constantly flowing out of his throat.
After a while, perhaps he had stopped vomiting blood, Zhao Ziheng's hands fell weakly on the sheets, his body leaned weakly on Wang Ye's shoulder, his eyes were dull and his face was gray. Xiuying hurriedly wiped the blood from Zhao Ziheng lips and hands. Zhao Ziyan looked at him with an uneasy heart.
"Bring some water."
"good."
Wang Ye gave the order, Xiuying hurriedly ran to the side to pour water, and quickly returned to the bedside with the water. Wang Ye took out a pill from a small bottle and stuffed it into Zhao Ziheng's mouth, then took the water and fed it to Zhao Ziheng. Zhao Ziheng subconsciously swallowed the pill with the water.
After a long while, he was waiting for Zhao Ziheng to stabilize. Sure enough, after a short rest, Zhao Ziheng's eyes quickly regained focus.
"Is it because of deterioration again?"
Zhao Ziheng forced his weak body to leave Wang Ye's shoulder and asked with some sarcasm. The weakness in his voice deepened the sadness in his tone.
Wang Yexin was startled when she heard what Zhao Ziheng said. She was very sensitive to the fact that Zhao Ziheng already knew something. She could tell from his words and his slightly mocking expression. Zhao Ziyin and Xiuying were also startled at the same time. How could they forget that Zhao Ziheng was so smart that he would definitely find out about her physical condition? To conceal it was just deceiving oneself.
"Just tell me, there's no need to hide anything, or... do you still want to keep hiding it?"
Zhao Ziheng felt weak, and his voice trembled slightly. It was obvious that these words consumed a lot of his energy.
Sure enough, Wang Ye's premonition came true. Zhao Ziyan lowered his eyes and clenched his teeth, while Xiuying turned her head away and clenched her hands together.
Wang Ye took a deep breath and then exhaled: "It's the Double Soul Devouring Gu, a poison that is restrained by two people."
As if he had made great mental preparations, Wang Ye briefly stated his words, paused for a moment, and then continued: "The so-called double soul-devouring Gu is first formed by one party implanting a common Gu poison in his own body, and then implanting the other half into another person's body. To be precise, half is benign and the other is toxic. After implantation, the Gu poison in the two people's bodies will resonate and then form a symbiotic state; this Gu poison has a certain incubation period, which can be long or short. The benign party will not be affected, but on the contrary, the party implanted with toxicity will slowly spread in the body over time. It can be said to be poisonous, but it will not be fatal immediately. As time goes by, after the toxin spreads to a certain extent, various reactions will follow. After a period of unimaginable pain and torture, the person will die. This Gu poison cannot be diluted and there is no medicine to cure it. The only way is to find the other party and take out the benign toxin from his body as a medicine to cure it."
Wang Ye closed his eyes as soon as he finished speaking, as if he was unwilling to accept this fact. He only said the necessary words. Zhao Ziyin and Xiuying could fully understand the severity of the situation from Zhao Ziheng's outburst, not to mention Zhao Ziheng himself.
