It was already dark, and lights were lit everywhere.
Chi Su ran to the place where Xue Hengzhao was imprisoned, shouting Xue Hengzhao's name, and knocked on the door one by one.
But no answer was ever heard.
Chi Su became more and more panicked, her mind filled with bad thoughts.
She had no choice but to poke through the window paper and look inside, and finally saw Xue Hengzhao in the seventh room to the west.
She huddled in a corner, her face covered by her clothes, motionless.
"Heng Zhao! Heng Zhao! It's me!" Chi Su slapped the window hard, "Are you asleep? Wake up!"
However, no matter how loud she shouted or how hard she slapped, Xue Hengzhao remained motionless.
Chi Su was so anxious that her face was filled with tears. Because this was a warehouse, iron bars were nailed to the doors and windows.
Chi Su is unarmed, how can he fight?
"These people are so cruel! How can she bear it with such a weak body?" Chi Su was filled with hatred and pain. "I still have to think of a way, I can't just leave you here."
Chi Su turned around and left, walking quickly along the corridor of the West Palace, pouring the liquid into his mouth.
Her throat was blocked, and she raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face. It was cold, and the chill penetrated to her bones.
"God, please bless Hengzhao!" She couldn't help but beg God in her heart like a stone.
She ran around almost aimlessly, during which she met Shi Dianjin. Although the two of them didn't stop for a moment, no one could find anyone to help.
Seeing the sky getting darker and darker, Chi Su's heart sank deeper and deeper.
But she was still unwilling to give in, and she and Shi Dianjin split up to find a solution.
Seeing that it was already Youshi, Chi Su's legs had lost all feeling.
She fell to the ground, wanting to cry but not daring to cry.
At this time, a person came out from the opposite corner. Chi Su had good eyesight. Even though it was far away and the sky was dark, he still recognized the person.
She paused for a moment, then staggered up and ran over quickly.
When Yu Guming saw someone running towards him, he stood still.
"Master Shizi..." Chi Su gasped and knelt on the ground and said, "I beg you to save this person! It's Xue Hengzhao who was with me in the Nianwu Courtyard before.
She was framed and locked up in a cold room. Aunt Hu said that if she was locked up for two days, she would definitely freeze to death!
I went to see her just now. She was motionless in the room, probably passed out. "
"Get up." Yu Guming took half a step back.
Chi Su shook his head and said pleadingly: "Master, I beg you, no one in this palace can save us. Just do it..."
"I'm going to save you," Yu Guming said briefly, "Where are you?"
He deserved it so much that Chi Su was stunned.
She looked up at Yu Guming. In the dim twilight, Yu Guming's dark hair had melted into the night, and his face like a crown jade seemed even more handsome.
"Oh...it's right over there, in the seventh room on the west side of the courtyard of the silk warehouse." Chi Su woke up and quickly pointed to him, "She has been locked up all day long."
After hearing this, Yu Guming turned around and walked over. Chi Su quickly got up and wanted to follow.
Who would have thought that Aunt Ma would send people to find her at this time, it was Qu Linglong and Liu Xianghuan.
"Why are you messing around? I've never seen someone as reckless as you! If you don't go back, I'll lock you in too! That's what Aunt Ma said." Qu Linglong looked at Chi Su, half teasing and half intimidating.
"Stop trying to show off to me. Don't think that I don't know that it's you who caused the trouble!" Chi Su couldn't help but feel angry when she saw Qu Linglong, "God decides what you do, be careful of retribution!"
"I think you were bitten by a mad dog!" Qu Linglong retorted and scolded, "If it weren't for the fact that you can do needlework quickly, keeping you here would still be useful, and I would have dealt with it all!"
She is now confident. She is not afraid of Chi Su's revenge. She also wants to let everyone know that she has the support of Aunt Ma and Aunt Hu. Let's see who dares to antagonize her in the future!
"Miss Chi San, it's better to go back with us!" Liu Xianghuan took Chi Su's hand and said, "Not only will you not help the situation, but you will also be hurting yourself."
Chi Su thought that Yu Guming had agreed to save Xue Hengzhao anyway, and it would not be good if he still argued with a villain like Qu Linglong, so he shut up and went back with them.
Xue Hengzhao was locked in when he got up early. It was fine during the day, although the cooling was limited. After all, the sun was shining, and the weather was very sunny today.
But in the second half of the day, the chill became noticeably worse.
The walls of this room were bare, not even a wooden board, let alone bedding and a charcoal fire.
To be honest, this was the emptiest house Xue Hengzhao had ever seen. It was difficult to even find a straw stick.
This place is called a warehouse, but it is actually the private prison of the Needlework Bureau.
Because the doors and windows were tight and there was nothing available in the house, no one was watching at all.
Xue Hengzhao knew that Aunt Hu and the others were going to kill her, and she didn't expect anyone to come and save her.
Even though I knew that Chi Su would run as hard as possible, I became more aware of the hope.
She had roughly guessed who was plotting against her, which just confirmed her previous speculation.
Xue Hengzhao did not feel desperate because she was far from reaching the end of her rope.
On the contrary, he became interested, like a good talker encountering a somewhat meaningful chess game, or like a gambler hearing the crisp sound of dice in a treasure cup.
So she always had a faint smile on her lips, wrote "Zixu Fu" on the ground with her feet, and then stood there admiring it for a long time.
The sky was getting dark, and Xue Hengzhao rubbed her hands. She had been cold since she was a child, and her hands and feet were always cold.
Slowly groping for the collar of his undershirt, he took out a small pill.
It's only about the size of half a mung bean and is as smooth as jade, covered with a layer of beeswax.
This thing was given to her by her unfathomable master. It has a name called Guixiwan.
After taking this thing, the heartbeat will slow down and the breathing will become weak.
It is as if people have entered hibernation, reaching the state of tortoise breath written in the scriptures.
This pill can be used to fake death, or it can be used to preserve physical strength when dying. In any case, it can allow people to avoid disaster.
One pill can make you fall into deep sleep, and two pills can make you fake death. The dosage cannot be wrong.
Xue Hengzhao remembered what her master said when he handed this thing to her: "You have a weird mind, both good and evil. If the world is peaceful, you can live in seclusion and live an ordinary life.
If things in the world are chaotic and difficult to avoid, then it is God's will that you should do something about it. "
Xue Hengzhao knew that if he really stayed in this cold room for two days and two nights, it would be difficult not to freeze to death.
Taking Guixi Pills can slow down her blood flow and help her survive in a deep sleep.
One pill can make a person sleep for twelve hours. Xue Hengzhao took one first.
Then she curled up in the corner, curled up her feet, put her hands under her armpits, and carefully covered her ears to prevent frostbite.
Then she silently recited one, two, three...
When I counted to one hundred, my mind began to blur, and my thoughts became more and more trance-like, as if I was wrapped in a large ball of wet and warm cotton and sinking to the bottom of the water.
Half an hour after she fell asleep, Yu Guming used the Longquan sword he wore to open the door lock.
