As he spoke, he bit his teeth, and dark blood immediately flowed down the corners of his mouth.
"No, he's taken poison, stop him!"
Li Yang was furious.
He rushed forward personally, stretched out his hand and pressed the man in the hat's mouth: "Asshole, don't swallow poison, don't swallow poison!"
It's just that he quickly despaired. The man in the hat clenched his teeth. He couldn't stop the venom from invading at all, and the longer he dragged on, the faster the toxin spread.
The man in the bamboo hat's cheeks gradually changed from pitch black, to jet black, to gray, and there were a few drops of purple and black at the corners of his mouth...
"Ruined!"
Li Yang's face was filled with sadness and anger.
He originally thought he could catch him alive and find out who was behind it, but he didn't expect that the other person would rather commit suicide than reveal the secret.
"ah--"
Seeing the man in the bamboo hat looking up and down, several maids who came to take care of Jie'er were so frightened that they lost their minds.
Jie'er was also stunned. She didn't expect that the other party would commit suicide so decisively.
Then, a flash of regret flashed in her eyes, and she wanted to find out who was behind it.
"Son of a bitch!"
When Li Yang saw the man in the bamboo hat die, he was filled with hatred and annoyance. When he turned around, he saw Jie'er who looked a little pale.
"Forget it, let's go back first."
The surrounding Imperial Guards didn't say anything. They were the army that only obeyed the emperor's orders. The reason why Li Yang asked them to come was because someone broke into the palace at night.
Now that the threat has been eliminated, these people are walking faster than him.
In the blink of an eye, Li Yang and Jie'er were the only two people left on the top of the mountain.
Li Yang forced a smile: "Are you okay? I was so worried just now, I was afraid that you would have an accident."
"I'm fine, just a little weak."
Jie'er stood up and calmed down:
"I didn't expect him to be so fierce. I thought he was just an ordinary charlatan."
"No matter what, you'll be fine."
Li Yang hurriedly supported Jie'er and walked down the hillside. But while walking, he noticed that Jie'er's left arm was shaking and she almost fell down.
Li Yang hurriedly asked: "What's wrong with you?"
Jie'er smiled with difficulty: "It's nothing. The fight was too fierce just now and my muscles were involved."
"fart!"
Li Yang cursed angrily: "You are obviously poisoned."
He also reached out his fingers and touched Jie'er's neck, and found that her body was hot and there was sweat on her forehead.
Jie'er whispered: "I am indeed poisoned, but my life is not in danger for the time being. I will be fine after just two days of rest. Don't worry."
"Don't worry!"
When Li Yang heard this, he bent down and directly held Princess Jie'er in his arms.
"You are doing this to protect me, I can't ignore it."
And Jie'er can no longer hear what he is saying.
His broad chest, solid arms, and warm masculine aura all attracted her attention like a magnet.
Jie'er's pretty face couldn't help but blush, and she felt warmth and security like never before.
Her head rested on Li Yang's chest.
Li Yang didn't notice, he just groaned and walked down the mountain faster.
He is in a panic now.
This was the emperor's personal bodyguard. If he died protecting him, then according to Qin Yushuang's character, he would probably be buried with him!
It is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. The already rugged mountain road becomes even more twisty under the cover of night.
Especially Li Yang's caution.
"boom!"
When Li Yang was about to walk to the foot of the mountain with Jie'er in his arms, perhaps it was because it had just rained yesterday and the ground was already slippery. In addition, because everyone had gone up the mountain just now, they might have damaged something, and rocks fell down one after another. .
Debris flew everywhere and dust flew.
A large part of the mountain wall collapsed instantly, and smoke filled the sky.
Li Yang subconsciously covered himself with his body to avoid being hit by gravel or choked by smoke and dust.
"ah!"
Just as he was protecting Jie'er, his back was severely broken by a small gravel, and then a sharp pain shot through his body, making him groan uncontrollably.
"You, are you okay!"
Jie'er was shocked when she was held in her arms. You must know that Li Yang is an ordinary person and cannot be compared with a practitioner like her who has internal strength.
Li Yang smiled bitterly: "It's okay, it's just a bruise on my back."
Although he was in unbearable pain, he did not abandon Jie'er and still held her firmly.
"you are silly!"
Jie'er could see that Li Yang was hurt, but she didn't blame or push Li Yang away. She just sighed softly: "I don't deserve what you do."
"Stop talking, it's almost here."
Li Yang interrupted Jie'er directly.
"It's not worth what I do? Are you kidding me? If you die tonight, I will die tomorrow!"
He was roaring in his heart, but his cheeks, which were already numb from pain, could not make any expression. He just gritted his teeth and walked towards his residence in the palace.
But in Jie'er's eyes, everything changed.
"Why didn't I realize that he is so good-looking before?"
"Sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, straight bridge of nose, deep eyes... It's really a face that has fascinated thousands of girls."
"Such a handsome man is hugging me now!"
Jie'er looked at Li Yang's retreating figure, her eyes gradually becoming demented...
"Boom!"
Another thunder exploded in the air, and then a light rain began to fall.
"Crash!"
Li Yang hugged Jie'er and walked into the door. A gust of warm wind blew in, immediately driving away the coldness in their bodies.
Li Yang put down Jie'er and said, "Sit down for a while, and I'll make you some ginger soup and press it down."
"No, I want to bandage it for you."
Jie'er suddenly grabbed Li Yang's arm, with a hint of anxiety on her pretty face:
"Your clothes are stained with blood. You must clean them in time, otherwise the wounds will rot and you will be in trouble."
Li Yang hesitated slightly: "I'm afraid of getting your hands dirty."
He could see that Jie'er paid great attention to her appearance.
Jie'er shook her head gently: "No, I used to practice martial arts all year round. My fingers are nimble and my movements are nimble. It's easy to handle it."
After finishing speaking, she picked up the jacket that Li Yang had taken off, skillfully tore it into strips of cloth and wrapped it around the wound, and also took out anti-inflammatory powder and sprinkled it on it.
Her fingers are slender and delicate, and their skin is like gelatin, like jade carvings.
Looking at Jie'er's focused look, Li Yang looked at Jie'er's focused look, and his eyes stopped on the side of Jie'er's face.
That stunningly pretty face exudes a sense of tranquility and serenity, just like an exquisite oil painting.
Li Yang's breathing gradually became heavier.
"Where are you looking!"
Jie'er seemed to notice something, raised her head and shouted:
"Turn around quickly, I'm going to apply medicine on you!"
Li Yang turned around with an embarrassed expression.
"Puch!"
Jie'er smiled brightly, and then reached out to untie Li Yang's waist belt, peeling off the belt piece by piece, revealing the tight muscles of his back.
Li Yang didn't resist, just stared at Jie'er.
A hint of shyness flashed across Jie'er's face.
However, she quickly regained her composure and continued to apply the golden sore ointment to Li Yang smoothly.
