Awan watched Fang Zilan take a few steps back as if she had lost all her strength, leaned against the door frame, opened her mouth, and finally couldn't help but ask, "What are you going to do now?"
"What should I do?" Fang Zilan repeated these three words, feeling heavy and out of breath. She originally thought that there was still enough time. After the situation in Shixian County became clear, she could find a doctor and find ways to detoxify everyone.
After all, she had seen everyone's pulse before and knew that the toxicity was not strong and would not be fatal immediately, but she never expected...
Seeing Fang Zilan turn away, A Wan felt flustered for no reason, and almost said indiscriminately: "Fang Zilan, we can pretend that nothing happened..."
"How long can they live?" Fang Zilan interrupted Awan in a deep voice, "Half a year? Or three months..."
"A month at most." A Wan's voice was trembling, and Fang Zilan's eyes turned red, "Is there no other way?"
Awan bit her lips and shook her head. Seeing this, Fang Zilan took a deep breath and strode out of the village.
"Fang Zilan, what are you going to do?" Awan quickly chased after her and grabbed her sleeve, "If they know the truth, there is no guarantee that they won't put all their efforts into it. What will happen to you then?"
"Are you going to let me do nothing and just watch them die?" Fang Zilan deliberately lowered her voice, but could not hide the anger in her words.
"If I can die with peace of mind, what if I have been kept secret all this time?" A Wan increased his strength in his hands and said without hesitation: "They are born for the ghost sect and die for the ghost sect. They can't help it. If..."
"A Wan!" Fang Zilan held A Wan's wrist and stopped her unfinished words, "But how innocent are the villagers of Taoyuan Village? Just because the ghost sect is ruthless, do you want to drag them to death together?"
"But..." Awan was so anxious that she was about to cry, "I really can't save them!"
At this moment, Fang Zilan suddenly understood that Awan's words, which seemed to be deceiving himself, were actually just looking for excuses for himself to feel at ease.
How could Awan not know that the villagers in Taoyuan Village were innocent? But she couldn't save him, so she could only close her eyes and listen, blaming all the blame on Guimen instead of her own powerlessness.
"A Wan, if you can't save it, don't save it." Fang Zilan held A Wan's shoulders with both hands and said seriously: "You are a medical woman, not a fairy. There are many incurable diseases in the world. You just have to do your best to obey fate. There is no need to take care of them all. On myself.”
Awan sniffed, "I know, but once I tell the truth..."
She did not continue, but Fang Zilan understood in her heart, "Now that things have happened, they have the right to know the truth. As for what will happen in the future, none of us can say."
"I'm afraid they will fight to the death when they are so angry. Your health has not been well, how can you survive?" Awan couldn't help crying. Fang Zilan wiped her tears and comforted her in a warm voice: "The soldiers will stop the water." Earth cover. Don’t worry, I can still endure it.”
Awan wanted to say something more, but Fang Zilan calmed down and said word by word: "I will not fall down no matter what before I see Mr. Su Heng."
"Then..." Awan pursed her lips and summoned up the courage to say, "I will accompany you to explain the situation to them."
"No need, I'll just go alone." Fang Zilan raised her hand and rubbed the top of Awan's hair, "If it's as you said, and they get angry and take action, it will be easier for me to deal with it."
"How can this be done..." A Wan was about to argue a few words when Fang Zilan took her hand and sent her back to where she lived. "You stay here first and stay away from the limelight with Xia'er for a while. When I see Lu Tian , I’ll come back to you.”
Awan looked worried, hesitated for a moment, nodded in agreement, and then warned: "You must be careful, go and come back as soon as possible."
Fang Zilan nodded slightly, then went out to find Lu Tian and told him everything about the Gu test.
After hearing this, Lu Tian's face was full of disbelief, and he drew his sword and pointed it at Fang Zilan, "Zixiu, you are willing to be a lackey of the imperial court, so be it, but you actually sow discord and bite back, why?"
"You know how much of what I said is true or false." Fang Zilan did not back down, but took a step forward, letting Lu Tian's knife press against her heart, "You have no chance of winning against me. I am completely There is no need to lie to you, and I should know best how you will react after being poisoned..."
"Shut up!" Lu Tian's hand shook, and the knife penetrated halfway, oozing out traces of blood. Fang Zilan still stood motionless, "Lu Tian, it's easy for you to ask me to shut up, but you are here I have been through life and death for so many years, but Master Guimen has never shown any kindness to you, and now he wants to take your life. Are you willing?"
"Zixiu, do you want to die?" Lu Tian gritted his teeth, "Do you think I am the same as you, and will rebel if I say so? This is a ghost gate! I, Lu Tian, am a ghost of the ghost gate in this life, so why should I be afraid of life and death? ?”
Fang Zilan pinched the blade of the sword and snorted coldly, "You can tell me what you said. But do you really think so in your heart? And the group of people under your command, how are you going to explain to them?"
"This is my business, you don't need to worry about it." Lu Tian glared at Fang Zilan fiercely, took out his knife and turned around.
Fang Zilan covered the wound until Lu Tian's figure disappeared, then she dared to slowly squat down and gasp for breath.
"Miss Fang..." Zheng Yan's stammering voice came from above Fang Zilan's head. She raised her head and saw him half-bowing and extending his hand in front of her.
Fang Zilan put her hand up without hesitation and let Zheng Yan pull her up, "Why didn't you follow Mr. Zhuge?"
"Master Zhuge was discussing with the accompanying Master of the Ministry of Industry how to clear the road quickly, and I was sent out." Zheng Yan's voice was low, and Fang Zilan chuckled, "Liar."
Hearing this, Zheng Yan coughed unnaturally, "Master Zhuge ordered me to come find you."
"What are you looking for me for?" Fang Zilan asked casually, and quickly responded, "I'm fine, let alone Awan taking care of me, what can happen?"
Zheng Yan was about to speak but stopped, and Fang Zilan said helplessly: "Okay, the first priority is to clear the road. You'd better follow Lord Zhuge."
However, Zheng Yan refused to give in, and Fang Zilan had no choice but to ask him to send him back to his place of residence. Only after seeing Awan and Xia'er did he leave with peace of mind.
Seeing that Fang Zilan was injured, Awan felt distressed and complained, "You, you, you can injure yourself in just a short time, what can I say to you?"
Fang Zilan responded absently, and Awan leaned into her ear and asked, "What's Lu Tian's reaction? Isn't he really going to fight to the death? How else did you get this injury..."
