Chapter 124: Love is Hard to Forget (5)
"The man you are talking about, Zhao Ziheng, is on the verge of death . He will die in less than half a year."
The ghost's voice seemed to come from a very far away place. When Yin Yin heard it, she seemed to think it was just an illusion. Something in her heart seemed to collapse. Yin Yin's eyes gradually widened until indifference turned into astonishment.
Even though Yin Yin said nothing and her expression did not change much, Guisha still understood a lot from that obvious expression, so much that he laughed at himself in his heart; Guisha never denied his feelings for Yin Yin, but he was different from others, he did not hide them but knew how to deliberately keep a distance, he would not force love, and he enjoyed Yin Yin's feelings and dedication; similar to Xue Han and Wang Ye, he would always put Yin Yin's health and happiness first in everything.
Thinking of this, Guisha laughed at . He didn't know why so many people would fall in love with the same woman. Putting aside her temperament, in terms of beauty, Yinyin was not the most beautiful, and Guisha had seen many people who were more beautiful than Yinyin. Since she was not the most beautiful, Guisha could not find any reason why Yinyin was attractive. Even so, they still fell in love with her, and there were many people like her. Until now, Guisha could not find any reason to explain what attracted those people who were attracted to Yinyin. The only thing that was certain was that once you were attracted to her, it was difficult to escape from her, and he was no exception.
"But from what you said, it seems that he is not trying to avoid you for this reason, at least not in terms of time. He was poisoned by the Double Soul Devouring Gu. From the onset of the disease to death, he will experience unimaginable torture. There is no way to suppress it, and he can only let the poison wreak havoc in his body. Often, because he cannot endure the pain during an attack, the poisoned will choose to commit suicide in order to seek relief. Since the first attack, the person is doomed to die. The length of time can be determined based on each person's body constitution. In Zhao Ziheng's case, it will be at most half a year, which is basically the maximum limit. At least with that person, I believe he can hold on for half a year."
Guisha stated in a calm tone, and Yinyin listened blankly, neither excited nor expressing any opinion, because from the moment she heard the words "your life is at stake" from Guisha's mouth, her expression was frozen.
"It has been almost three months since his first attack, which means he only has three months left. His condition should have entered the middle stage. Most people would commit suicide in the early stages of the attack in order to find relief. As for the middle stage, you can imagine that it is simply unbearable for a human being..."
Having said this, Guisha suddenly paused, as if immersed in some memories, but Yinyin ignored him and still looked at Guisha steadily, waiting for him to continue.
After a while, the ghost demon spoke again: "It can be said that he is no different from a useless person now. To put it more clearly, he can only wait to die."
Yinyin still didn't react. Guisha didn't seem to care about it, but he was still very surprised. If he hadn't seen Yinyin's frozen expression, he would have believed that Yinyin was a puppet without a soul . So Guisha continued: "However, he is really surprising. Not only has he entered the middle stage, but he is also unwilling to rest and recuperate. Although most of the state affairs have been handed over to his ministers, there are still some that he still handles. Maybe, as you said, he is a very dedicated person."
Guisha couldn't help but think so, otherwise he couldn't think of any reason for him to be so stubborn.
As if she had a premonition, Yin Yin believed that Guisha had not finished speaking yet, so she continued to wait.
Just as Yin Yin expected, the ghost demon also saw Yin Yin's thoughts, and after a long sigh, he said: "There is only one way to save him, and no matter whether it is found or not, even if this method is used, he still cannot get rid of the torture brought by the double soul devouring insect, because even if it is really removed, the double soul devouring insect in his body will not be completely eliminated. It will enter a latent period again. During this period, no matter how long it is, it will occasionally break out. The pain during the outbreak is no different from before, so even if you survive, who can endure that kind of pain from time to time? In the end, even if you can hold on, you will be tortured beyond human form."
Guisha didn't know why he told Yinyin these things. These were originally the most taboo things for him, but he still said them without reservation; similarly, Guisha could imagine what Yinyin's reaction would be if she knew these things under normal circumstances, but it was unknown what kind of reaction Yinyin would have in her current situation.
At this point, the facts were quite clear. Yin Yin still maintained that frozen expression, and time continued to pass by bit by bit. This would make people think that Yin Yin didn't hear anything he said at all. However, Gui Sha knew whether she heard anything or not, so he remained silent as usual, waiting for Yin Yin to break the silence herself.
Sure enough, after what seemed like a long time, Yin Yin slowly spoke: "Why are you telling me this?"
At first glance, Yin Yin's words seemed quite ruthless and contained no emotion, but Gui Sha didn't think so, so he replied: "Because I think you should know."
Should know? Yinyin blinked, her eyes suddenly became vague, making it hard to tell what she was thinking, but Guisha could see that it was her reaction when she was struggling with her heart. His answer was still the same as before. Yinyin's reaction was probably something she herself didn't know, it was completely subconscious, that is to say , Yinyin had completely lost the ability to make decisions or judgements, including the meaning and impact of this matter on her.
