Chapter 41
Chapter 41
In half a day, Sang Yuanyuan vomited blood a total of three times.
She didn't feel anything at all. On the contrary, her spirit was better than when she was burning up. Other than feeling weak and vomiting blood from time to time, she didn't seem to have any other problems.
From time to time, she had to comfort Sang Bu Jin and You Wuming.
On the surface, these two men acted as if nothing had happened, but in fact, the way they looked at her was becoming more and more strange.
They even secretly hid all the reflective things.
Sang Yuanyuan reasonably guessed that there might be something wrong with her face.
She tried to kiss You Wuming several times and found that he didn't dislike it at all.
At night, the three carriages arrived outside the city gates of Yun City.
Yun City looked like a very magical city.
It was winter all year round, and the material used to build the city was ice — not ordinary ice, but the ice core of the ten-thousand-year-old mysterious ice.
The ice core of mysterious ice was light blue and was especially bright at night. The entire city was suffused with a blue luster, and there was no need for candles to light it up.
Outside the ice core, there was a thick layer of ordinary ice, which dyed the blue with a layer of cool and hazy halo. The light blue dreamy city spread out in front of them. This kind of scene really couldn't be seen in the sky.
Sang Yuanyuan couldn't lie down anymore. She leaned against You Wuming and sat by the window. She lifted the curtain of the carriage to admire this wonder of the world.
"It's so beautiful …" She sighed with emotion.
You Wuming stretched his head over and gently placed it on her shoulder. He said, "What's so good about this …"
Sang Yuanyuan covered her mouth with a slap.
A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory.
When he finished speaking, it was a disappointment.
Sang Bu Jin returned to the carriage and said hesitantly, "I'm afraid ordinary doctors won't be able to help. I've already contacted Yun Xuzhou."
Sang Yuanyuan looked at him in puzzlement. She didn't know why he was so serious.
Since they were already in Yun City, wasn't it normal to seek treatment from the royal family?
"Ahem, ahem." Sang Bujin cleared his throat and pretended to be indifferent as he said, "When I go out in disguise, I always carefully hide my identity. Yun Xuzhou only knows me as Young Feng. She was the one who gave me a fake identity in the Yun family …"
Sang Yuanyuan understood.
"So Yun Xuzhou thought that Brother was … a woman."
Sang coughed and nodded.
You Wuming raised his hand and rubbed his forehead.
Sang Bujin said to Sang Yuanyuan, "You will be called Feng Guo.
As for You Wuming … It doesn't matter. Anyway, Yun Xuzhou won't ask about him. "
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Young Phoenix!"
The sound of animal skin boots stepping on the ice came closer and closer. The clear female voice penetrated the carriage and fell into the ears of the three people.
Sang Bujin raised his eyebrows. "She's here."
He turned around, opened the car door, and waved his hand to greet, "Prince Regent!"
A white figure swept over to the shaft of the carriage. Before she could stand still, she gave Sang Bujin a tight hug.
"I missed you so much, Young Phoenix!"
She kissed Sang Bujin's face.
Yun Xuzhou was slightly taller than Sang Bujin. Her hair was tied into a simple bun and tied up with a jade crown. She was dressed in white and looked elegant and neat, but no one would mistake her for a man.
"Where is the patient?
Hurry up and let me see him! "Yun Xuzhou didn't wait for Sang Bujin to speak before she spoke.
Sang Bujin's feelings were indescribable after being 'molested' by a woman in front of his little sister. He pursed his lips and said, "He's in the carriage."
Sang Yuanyuan felt a cold wind blow against his face.
The white-clothed Yun Xuzhou had already entered the carriage.
The fragrance of winter plum blossoms filled the carriage. The woman's hair was dyed with snow. Her face was beautiful, and her eyes were exceptionally clear. Her gaze swept across the carriage and fixed on Sang Yuanyuan's forehead.
"It really is the Golden Abyss Snow Moth."
Yun Xuzhou's expression turned cold. She quickly stepped forward and reached out a warm and calloused hand from her white sleeve to press on Sang Yuanyuan's wrist.
She lowered her eyes.
The outline of her eyes was extremely deep, and her double eyelids were as thick as knives. She had a round nose, and her lips were slightly parted, revealing two small rabbit teeth.
Sang Yuanyuan noticed that when Yun Xuzhou's gaze swept across the carriage, her gaze only lingered on You Wuming's shockingly handsome face for a moment. She didn't even look stunned before quickly disappearing.
'This is an extremely pure person who only cares about matters,' Sang Yuanyuan thought to himself.
Because she knew that there was a patient in the carriage, Yun Xuzhou's attention was completely focused on the patient's condition.
"He must have been exhausted before encountering the Golden Abyss Snow Moth."
Yun Xuzhou raised her eyes and finally spared some time to look at You Wuming. She opened her mouth and condemned the old doctor, "Why don't you know how to control yourself?
You don't know how precious energy is when you're young. You'll regret it when you're old! "
You Wuming: "…"
Sang Yuanyuan saw grief and indignation in his black eyes, as if he had swallowed a mouthful of old blood.
She almost laughed out loud. He had agreed to show off in front of Yun Xuzhou and play a classic male show of breaking off the engagement. In the end, the plot was completely different from what he had imagined.
Seeing that You Wuming was about to explode, Sang Yuanyuan hurriedly explained, "Regent, you misunderstood. I just overused my spiritual accumulation. It's nothing else."
"Ah!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This pulse is too much like overindulgence. "Yun Xuzhou spoke without any scruples.
Even Sang Yuanyuan couldn't take it anymore. She said dryly, "We haven't gotten married yet.
We haven't … "
In fact, she still felt a little guilty. After all, after he applied hibiscus rouge on her, she did feel weak in the kidneys.
Yun Xuzhou put her hand to her lips and said, "Cough, cough, it doesn't matter. That's not important.
The Golden Abyss Snow Moth is a rare poison that only appears once in a hundred years. It's an illusion formed by the cold poison in the Icy Soul Cold Crystal. After being poisoned by this poison, you can only live for three days. "
Her tone was relaxed, as if she was saying, "It only takes three days to cure this poison."
Sang Yuanyuan and the other two couldn't react for a moment.
"Yun Xuzhou." When Sang Bujin came back to his senses, his voice changed. "Don't joke about this kind of thing."
Yun Xuzhou tilted her head and looked at him in puzzlement. "When did I joke with you?"
You Wuming's face was so gloomy that it could kill.
Sang Yuanyuan hurriedly grabbed the two impatient guys and said with a smile, "Regent must know how to detoxify the poison."
"That's right."
A look of admiration appeared in Yun Xuzhou's eyes. "Young Feng, you boast every day that you're carefree and heroic, that you're not inferior to the Emperor, and that you're an extraordinary woman. However, when you encounter a problem, you're not as calm and steady as your delicate and weak sister."
Sang Bujin felt so humiliated that he wanted to die when his' boastful 'words were exposed.
You Wuming was originally in a bad mood, but when he heard that there was a way to detoxify the poison and saw Sang Bujin suffer such a setback, he couldn't help but smile and laugh mockingly. "What an extraordinary woman!"
Yun Xuzhou glanced at him. "A real man should be indomitable in this world. What's the use of being like an embroidered pillow?"
Young Feng was her good friend. If she said it was okay, then no one else would!
You Wuming: "…"
Knife, where is the knife?
Sang Yuanyuan stifled her laughter until her chest hurt.
She also glanced at You Wuming. She saw that he was wearing an open-collared white robe and looked lazy. His clothes and hair were not neat, and no matter how she looked at him, he looked like a hedonistic son of a rich family.
She hurriedly tried to smooth things over. "Prince Regent, you don't know. He's not only beautiful, but he also has many good points."
Yun Xuzhou looked at her disapprovingly. "What's the use of being beautiful? To detoxify your poison, I have to take you deep into the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice and find the 'Unfreezing Grass' that grows beside the Icy Soul Chilling Crystal. Only by eating it can the Golden Underworld Snow Moth's poison be neutralized."
Sang Yuanyuan sighed and said, "I think we can only ask Prince Regent for help!"
Yun Xuzhou smiled gently. "It's a small matter. When Young Feng sent me a message, I guessed that it was the Golden Underworld Snow Moth's doing. I've already ordered people to prepare some necessary items. We can set off in a quarter of an hour."
Sang Yuanyuan thanked her seriously.
Yun Xuzhou called out to Sang Bujin. "Young Feng, come with me."
Sang Bujin followed her out of the car, as if he had nothing to live for.
As soon as the two of them left, Sang Yuanyuan quietly pulled You Wuming's hand and said to him, "Yun Xuzhou is wearing an ice crystal jade mirror.
I've looked in the mirror. "
You Wuming tilted his head and looked at her. His thin lips moved, and a trace of annoyance appeared in his eyes.
He and Sang Yuanyuan had a rare tacit understanding on one thing — hiding everything that reflected light and not letting Sang Yuanyuan see her own face.
After being poisoned, many yellow dots slowly appeared on her forehead, gradually spreading into the shape of a moth.
Didn't women care about their appearance the most? They were afraid that she would be sad.
He pressed her head in front of him and said in a low voice, "Anyway, after looking at you for a long time, you're just like that. I didn't think you were that good-looking before, and now I don't think you're that ugly.
There's no difference. "
Sang Yuanyuan looked up and glanced at him. "Liar.
Didn't you say that you were going to tell Yun Xuzhou that I'm the woman you love? Why didn't you say that when you saw her?
You just despised me for being ugly. "
You Wuming's mouth twitched. "… No, I didn't."
As soon as that woman came in, she told him to control himself like a rigid old doctor. What could he say?
What could he say?
Also, how could he bring up old scores in front of a woman like Yun Xuzhou?
It would be better to just go outside and have a fight.
You Wuming felt as if his head was stuffed with a mess.
Usually, when he encountered this kind of unclear situation, he would usually pull out a knife and cut it down, and it would be quiet.
But now, the person in front of him was a sick baby. He was conflicted for a long time and only felt numb.
Sang Yuanyuan's eyes were curved, and she didn't miss any small expression on his face.
She took the initiative to upgrade "like" to "beloved", and You Wuming didn't notice anything wrong at all. He didn't even show the slightest bit of resistance.
If she had tested him like this a while ago, he would definitely have raised his eyes and said, "Beloved woman?
Your heart must be crazy from thinking about it, Little Sang Guo! "
"You Wuming." She grabbed his collar and stared at him. "If we don't find the unfreezing grass, I only have three days, no, two and a half days to live."
You Wuming's face sank. "Impossible."
"What if?"
"There's no 'what if'!" he said coldly.
"How about this? These two days, when I say that I like you, you also say that you like me." She looked at him.
You Wuming's eyes were obviously flustered for a moment.
He hurriedly turned his head, and his expression became extremely strange.
She didn't give up. "Promise me. Maybe, in this lifetime, you'll only say these two days … two days only."
He suddenly turned back and said, "Ah, if you dare to die, I'll find a thousand women to pamper.
Two days?
I'll sing every night, I'll change … "
She pressed her lips against his to stop him from nagging.
After a soft kiss, she smiled and said, "You Wuming, I like you.
Do you like me? "
His expression cracked, and his cheeks unconsciously twitched slightly. His Adam's apple moved quickly, and after a while, he squeezed out a word.
"En."
After a while, he said, "I like you."
She smiled until her eyes disappeared. She rubbed her cheek against his and rubbed it against his face.
"That's enough." You Wuming grabbed her shoulder and moved her away. "Are you trying to poison me?"
She smiled and rubbed against him again. "Yes!"
While playing, she accidentally moved a little too much. She clutched her chest and spat out another mouthful of blood.
You Wuming felt that in his life, he might not meet a second stupid thing who could spit out blood and laugh at the same time.
… …
Sang Bujin and Yun Xuzhou rushed over on a sleigh.
Six big, furry white dogs pulled the sleigh. They looked a little like Samoyed, but they had two sharp horns on their heads. Their eyes were green, and there was a blue flame-shaped mark in the middle of their foreheads.
The red-clothed Sang Bujin and the white-clothed Yun Xuzhou sat side by side in front of the sleigh. With a spin, they slid through five feet of ice and snow and stopped steadily and accurately in front of Yun Jian's carriage.
"Come up!" Yun Xuzhou beckoned.
You Wuming wrapped Sang Yuanyuan in a large overcoat, lightly carried her out of the carriage, and landed on the sleigh.
"Oh, I didn't expect you to have some skills!" Yun Xuzhou raised her eyebrows and smiled.
You Wuming sneered sinisterly. "There are many things you can't see."
Yun Xuzhou laughed and waved the snow whip in her hand. The sleigh flew close to the ground.
In less than ten breaths of time, the sleigh flew out of Yun City.
A faint blue light illuminated half the sky. The white snow on the ground also faintly glowed blue. It was as if they were in a fairy tale world.
Sang Yuanyuan leaned against You Wuming's chest and looked at the red and white 'beauties' sitting in front of her. Strangely, a strong sense of satisfaction rose in her heart.
"It's so nice here," she murmured. "It's so beautiful and warm."
Yun Xuzhou's expression changed slightly.
"The toxicity has deepened!"
She turned around and saw that the yellow spots on Sang Yuanyuan's face had indeed faded. Her small face had become rosy, and her eyes were black and glossy, as if they were filled with two full pools of clear spring water.
"Can I take off these clothes?" Sang Yuanyuan pointed at the large plush overcoat on her body.
"No," Yun Xuzhou said seriously. "You'll freeze to death if you take them off."
Sang Yuanyuan slowly opened her mouth. She was somewhat in disbelief.
She knew that people who were frozen to death would actually feel warm before they died. They would take off their own clothes with a satisfied smile on their faces.
"The little match girl?" She muttered to herself and lowered her head.
You Wuming firmly held her shoulders.
She raised her rosy face and said with a smile, "So the reason I feel so happy now is actually because I'm about to die?
I can be with the person I like, and there are brothers and sisters who care about me by my side. It's like a dream. I don't have any regrets if I die like this. "
Sang Bujin felt as if a knife was being twisted in his heart. He completely didn't notice that his little sister had accidentally mentioned 'brother'.
Yun Xuzhou's eyes widened. She turned around extremely slowly and took out the ice crystal jade mirror she always carried with her. She secretly looked at herself again and again.
She had actually been mistaken for a man by Puerile Feng's little sister?!
How did she look like a man?!
She didn't think of Sang Bujin as' big brother 'at all.
Because no matter how she looked at it, Sang Bujin was a hundred times more feminine than her.
Yun Xuzhou felt depressed.
She thought to herself, 'When this matter is resolved, I'll definitely get Puerile Feng to tidy up for me.'
She felt somewhat wronged in her heart. She was busy with political affairs, so naturally, she could only dress in a way that was convenient for her. She didn't expect that she would be mistaken for a man. No wonder no one had come to propose marriage even though she was already in her twenties.
When she thought about the marriage proposal, she couldn't help but recall the marriage proposal she had decisively rejected five years ago.
At that time, everyone knew that the heir of Youzhou was weak and sickly. He had been raised in a boudoir since he was young and looked like a little girl. He only had a good face.
When the old King Youzhou proposed marriage to her on behalf of the heir, the whole family of sisters almost fainted from laughter. How could a little white rabbit marry a big bad wolf?!
Who would have thought that the man You Wuming was actually a black-skinned person?
Yun Xuzhou sighed and shook her head. She said, "Don't worry. With me here, he won't die.
Little Sister Feng Guo, you've misjudged me. I, Yunzhou's Regent Yun Xuzhou, am a woman just like you. Back then, I even rejected the famous You Wuming. "
When Sang Yuanyuan suddenly heard You Wuming's name, she subconsciously grabbed his hand.
You Wuming sneered. "Do you think You Wuming will like you, Yunzhou's Regent?"
Yun Xuzhou laughed. "I don't even like him. Why would I want him to like me?
Why are you worrying about other people? Do you think You Wuming is the same as you? "
You Wuming: "…" Sorry, it's me.
Before he exploded, Sang Yuanyuan covered his mouth and said, "Don't quarrel. You're all very good people. You'll all find happiness."
After the bowl of chicken soup was spilled, You Wuming and Yun Xuzhou couldn't continue.
The sleigh smoothly drove into the snowy mountain and stopped in front of a bottomless cliff.
"You're lucky!"
Yun Xuzhou stopped the sleigh and took out a huge hard rope. She nailed it into the mountain wall under the snow and said, "A few days ago, my younger brother's old illness acted up. He had to rely on the Icy Soul Frost Crystal to prolong his life. I found a cave, and there happened to be two stalks of unfreezing grass inside."
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Sang Bujin's shoulders that had been tense for a long time slumped. He pretended to be angry and said, "You made me worry the whole way!"
Yun Xuzhou looked back and smiled. "This time, you should remember it well, right?
In the future, you should trust me more. When I, Yun Xuzhou, promised you, which one of them didn't do well?
Look at how impatient you are. Tsk, when you get married in the future, I'll have to worry about you! "
Sang Bujin was stunned by her words.
"Yun Xuzhou," he asked, "Are you really not going to get married in this lifetime?"
Yun Xuzhou chuckled. "What's so good about men? What can they do that I can't do better than them?"
Sang Bujin laughed. "With your personality, no one can treat you as a woman."
Yun Xuzhou spread her hands in self-mockery. "It'd be great if I were really a man. I could marry Feng Chu and we wouldn't have to worry about each other."
Sang Bujin calmly turned his face away. "Why aren't you done yet?"
"Tsk, you're still shy." Yun Xuzhou threw away the ice pick in her hand and clapped her hands. "I'm done!"
She walked forward and snatched Sang Yuanyuan from You Wuming's arms.
Yun Xuzhou's arms were very strong. She held Sang Yuanyuan with one hand and grabbed the rope with the other. Her boots kicked against the mountain wall a few times, and she slid down about a thousand feet.
As they went down, the wind became stronger.
Yun Xuzhou used her body to block the wind for Sang Yuanyuan. When she saw that there wasn't a trace of panic or fear on her face, she couldn't help but laugh. "You're good. Although your body is a little weak, you're still soft on the outside but strong on the inside, just like the children of our Yun family.
You're called Feng Guo, right? You're much easier to deal with than your sister! "
Sang Yuanyuan was speechless.
She decisively changed the topic. "Just now, I heard you mention the King of Yunzhou's old illness?"
There was only one male in this generation of the Yun family. He was the current King of Yunzhou, Yun Xuzhou's younger brother, Yun Xuyang.
He was weak, had a leg disease, and had to rely on the Icy Soul Freezing Crystal to prolong his life. He was really the most miserable king.
Yun Xuzhou smiled faintly. "The Yun family's bloodline has been cursed. As long as it's a man, he will either die prematurely or be weak and sickly. If my younger brother dies one day, then all troubles will be solved. I won't have to live in fear anymore."
Although she said this, Sang Yuanyuan could feel the fear she was suppressing in the bottom of her heart. In fact, she was very afraid of losing her family.
"Later, I'll take a look at him," Sang Yuanyuan said.
Yun Xuzhou chuckled. "You're like a clay Buddha crossing the river. You're still thinking about saving the world."
Sang Yuanyuan also laughed. She didn't explain. It was indeed too early to say that she would treat other people's illnesses.
While they were talking, they arrived at their destination.
She saw that Yun Xuzhou had cleanly grabbed onto the rope and stopped her from falling. She kicked the mountain wall hard and borrowed the force of the swing to let go of her hand, causing her to fall into the cave on the cliff wall.
She took out a round multicolored stone from her bosom and knocked it on the ice wall.
The stone made cracking sounds. Its color turned from light to dark, and it became more and more transparent. It emitted a five-colored light.
Sang Yuanyuan was stunned.
"The Heart of Ice Spirit."
Yun Xuzhou said, "You've never seen it before, right? The good things in Yunzhou can't be brought out. They melt when they're brought out."
Soon, the Heart of Ice Spirit was like a light bulb, shining brightly.
The five-colored light was refracted on the solid ice of the ice cave. The originally pitch-black cave immediately became a dreamland. The light reflected on the icicles made it look like an ice paradise.
"Let's go!"
Yun Xuzhou supported Sang Yuanyuan as they walked forward. She said, "I'll collect some Icy Soul Cold Crystals for Yun Xuyang. Otherwise, he'll suddenly die again."
Sang Yuanyuan looked at the confident woman and felt at ease.
Who wouldn't like such a reliable person?
When he was with her, the deadly poison seemed to be not worth mentioning.
Just as Sang Yuanyuan's heart was bursting with a sense of security, an unforeseen event suddenly occurred.
In the midst of the five-colored light, a dense mass of transparent long snakes suddenly drilled out.
They seemed to be ice sculptures. One could see their purplish-red organs through their skin.
Yun Xuzhou sucked in a breath of cold air. "Don't move. I'll take care of it!
The Netherworld Ice Snake is highly poisonous. Even a trace of it will cause great trouble!
Usually, they only hide under the ice. It's extremely difficult to encounter them. Why did their nest appear today? There are so many of them! "
She carefully took out the Snow Whip from her waist. With a flick of her hand, the Snow Whip ignited with a bright red flame.
The transparent snakes were not afraid of the flame at all. They hissed, curled up their bodies, and slowly surrounded them.
Yun Xuzhou protected Sang Yuanyuan with one hand and waved the Snow Whip to prevent the Netherworld Ice Snakes from approaching. She carefully looked for an opportunity to use the whip as a sword and plunge it into the Netherworld Ice Snake's weak point. Then, she poured the flame into the Netherworld Ice Snake's black body and flung it against the wall of the cave.
"These things are the most cunning," she said.
"If we can't kill them in one blow, they'll crazily spray their snake blood on us. We also have to be careful of their spitting snake liquid …"
Coincidentally, a drop of snow-white ice liquid quietly attacked from above.
Yun Xuzhou chuckled and waved the flaming Snow Whip to strike the drop of snake liquid down.
"Do you see these things!
Hey!
I'm not bragging. I'm the only one in Cloud Realm who dares to bring you in after encountering the Netherworld Ice Snake's nest! "
She swung her snow whip a few times, forcing a circle of transparent poisonous snakes back a little.
"I'm afraid we'll have to delay for a while." Yun Xuzhou was somewhat vexed.
Suddenly, a low laugh that chilled her to the bone came from behind her.
You Wuming followed!
Sang Yuanyuan happily turned her head and curved her eyes.
He calmed his brows and pulled out his saber, pressing it against his side. A cold smile appeared at the corner of his lips. "It's just a snake."
Yun Xuzhou said, "Don't be careless. You can't touch snake blood or snake liquid. Also, don't break the icicles on the cave wall. The cold ice here can affect the whole body. Even a little damage can cause the ice to collapse!
Even if I'm at the fifth layer of the Spiritual Realm, I still need to … "
Yun Xuzhou was stunned.
In the blink of an eye, You Wuming had already walked in front of her. She didn't even see how he moved his hand or when he pulled out his saber.
A few afterimages seemed to still be left on the ice path, but the surrounding Netherworld Ice Snakes were clearly dead. Every snake was cut in half from the middle by the saber wind, and their corpses were scattered under the left and right walls of the cave.
The snake blood instantly froze and didn't spread more than a foot away.
You Wuming stood on the opposite side of the slaughter path. He casually raised his hand and waved.
Yun Xuzhou: "…!!!"
She suddenly wanted to get married!
The problem was, where could she find such a man!
"Feng Guo." Yun Xuzhou was serious. "Does your husband have brothers?"
Sang Yuanyuan: "…"
