Chapter 229 - Hidden Weapons
"Sister, He'er will be here soon." Lu He put on a triumphant smile and gently stroked her cheek, saying softly, "You are not worthy of negotiating terms with me now, so just enjoy your life here."
"Don't you think you're pathetic?"
"I don't know about that, but I know you will be more miserable than me, haha." After he finished speaking, he never looked at the person on the bed again, and left the cell with brisk steps.
Mu Ziyan sat up with the help of the wall, and reached behind her to touch the needles, but she endured the pain and touched from top to bottom, but she didn't feel a single one. She was shocked. Could this be the hidden weapon that Amu had mentioned?
On the other side, Gu Qinghong and Lu He had successfully left the cell. Passing by a secluded path, Gu Qinghong suddenly stopped and turned around to ask, "He'er, why did you take so long to come out just now? What were you doing in there?"
"I just wanted to teach that woman a lesson for my sister, but He'er's martial arts skills are not as good as hers, so I couldn't vent my sister's anger." Lu He's eyes were full of unwillingness. She lowered her head and kept tugging at the corner of her clothes.
Gu Qinghong's eyes warmed up and he shook his head gently. He turned and left without saying anything more. In fact, Mu Ziyan didn't seem to cling to Feng Muyan that much. It was just that she could no longer enter his heart and eyes. Everything was missed, and no matter how much he did, it would be in vain.
Looking at the dejected figure walking away, Lu He shook her head and snorted in disappointment. No wonder her sister couldn't win Feng Muyan's heart. She never tried hard to fight for him for herself. This time, she could kill two birds with one stone and help her along the way.
Half an hour later, Gu Liuqing came to the cell door alone with a food box in his hand and said in a cold voice, "Open the door."
The subordinate guarding the gate was stunned, and his eyes could not help but glance at the folding fan on Gu Liuqing's waist. He was instantly sweating through his clothes, and his fists were shaking. He asked tentatively, "Master, didn't you just leave a while ago?"
"What did you say!" There was a chill in Gu Liuqing's eyes, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
"Didn't you come here once with a subordinate just now at five o'clock in the morning? Why are you back suddenly again?" Seeing Gu Liuqing's face getting darker and darker, the gatekeeper's voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end there was basically no sound.
Gu Liuqing's heart suddenly became uncertain. He grabbed the gatekeeper by the collar and snatched the key from his arms. He opened the lock with trembling hands and kicked the door open. The guard at the next door was so scared that he knelt down with a thud.
"Greetings, Sect Master!" Seeing Gu Liuqing's frightening expression, the two men did not dare to say much and hurriedly opened the cell door.
Arriving at the door of the cell where Mu Ziyan was imprisoned, Gu Liuqing's heart was beating fast. He never believed in ghosts and gods, but he actually began to pray in his heart, "Li'er, please don't get hurt. Otherwise, how can I rest assured in this life?"
The subordinate pushed open the cell door and retreated silently.
Gu Liuqing slowly raised his head and his heart sank. That person with disheveled black hair sitting on the bed with a quilt in his arms was really Li'er who had challenged him last night? Could it be that he was too late?
"Li'er...are you okay..."
Mu Ziyan blew away the messy hair in front of him, loosened the quilt in his arms, raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows, "I'm a living person right here, can't you see it yourself? Or do you still want me to thank you for bringing me here?"
