Chapter 193 Death
"He gave it to me." Su Wan smiled. This was the chaotic world that Huiren had drawn.
In Huiren's heart, it was because of her death that Qi Min provoked the war and put the people in dire straits. He saw through that he was not the original owner, which was the mercy of the Buddha.
If he hadn't been Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, would he have regarded her as a demon?
Su Wan immediately denied it. If it weren't for him Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, he probably wouldn't have been able to see whether she had changed her heart.
"Grandmother, the Buddha will definitely bless me with a long life." Su Wan was determined to go to Xiliang Kingdom to find out the whole story.
Huiren believed that the Buddha had given instructions and should not save Qi Min, otherwise he would repeat the same mistakes and cause the world to suffer.
But Su Wan had a different view. The Buddha's mercy allowed her to travel through time and space and live on behalf of the original owner, which prevented the tragedy from happening at the root.
As long as she was alive, how could Qi Min be so angry and hateful, and take revenge at all costs?
This is the cycle of cause and effect.
All this was just Huiren's misunderstanding. She wanted to see if she would die if she saved Qi Min!
Madam Su smiled kindly, looking at Su Wan with pity and love.
"It's getting late, let's set off quickly." Su Wan took Madam Su's arm and walked out.
Madam Su followed Su Wan's steps and left the Guo Temple to go to Qingyun Temple on the next Qingyun Mountain.
Su Wan sent Madam Su there, settled her down, had a vegetarian meal, and then set off for the return journey.
To return to the capital from Qingyun Mountain, you have to take the road at the foot of Guo Temple. Not only is the mountain road at this distance rugged, but there is a deep abyss on the side of the road.
The carriage was moving very slowly. Qi Liu was very experienced in driving. The Qi family army had been hiding in the mountains for so many years, and it was very handy to drive a carriage through the mountain road.
Suddenly, Qi Liu saw a carriage slowly approaching in front of him.
He frowned, looked up at the high mountain on the inside, and then looked at the cliff on the outside. This mountain road was only wide enough for two carriages.
Both sides needed to cooperate and slowly pass through.
He stretched his neck to see whether the carriage on the opposite side was going to the outside or sticking to the inside, so that he could adjust the carriage.
Suddenly, his pupils shrank, and he saw that the people and the driver in the carriage all got off. The horse pulling the carriage suddenly neighed and ran towards him like crazy.
Qi Liu's heart was grasped by a hand, and he shouted loudly: "Miss, jump out of the car!"
Su Wan lifted the curtain and saw the carriage on the opposite side running wildly. Suddenly, a huge rock rolled down from the mountain and hit the carriage with a posture of destroying everything.
"Bang——"
There was a loud noise.
The carriage fell sideways and fell into the abyss.
All was silent.
Su Wan's heartbeat hit his chest hard, and it hurt every time.
Qi Liu's hands and feet were numb, and it took him a while to find his voice. He pursed his dry lips and said with difficulty: "Just, just fell down?"
It was like a dream.
Escaped from the gates of hell.
"Pinch me." Qi Liu pointed at his face and said to Su Wan: "Pinch here, use some strength."
Su Wan glanced at the mountain, and there was only the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves.
It seemed that the rocks of the mountain just collapsed and hit the carriage.
She raised her eyebrows, could it really be the blessing of Buddha?
She lowered her eyes to look at Qi Liu's silly look and stabbed him with a needle.
"Ah——"
Qi Liu howled.
"Are you sure it's an illusion or reality?" Su Wan played with the silver needle between her fingers, "Do you want another one?"
"No, no, no!" Qi Liu's cheek muscles twitched twice, rubbed his cheeks, and said resentfully: "Please sit down, I'll drive the carriage."
Su Wan got into the carriage, lifted the curtain, and looked at the mountains.
Qi Liu also observed intently. He had just seen someone get off the carriage and hide in the mountains.
He was the only one protecting Su Wan. He didn't dare to rashly go to the mountain to investigate, for fear of falling into a trap and putting Su Wan in danger.
The carriage passed the Qingyun Mountain Road. There were two people standing in the shade of the mountain, and one person fell on the ground.
Qinglan was shaking like a sieve. Her neck was pinched by a hand. Her face was pale and she stared at the man in front of her in fear. He had a black scarf wrapped around his face, revealing only a pair of eyes.
She felt familiar with these cold eyes, but in a life-and-death situation, Qinglan's mind was blank.
She regretted it and wanted to see Su Wan fall off the cliff with her own eyes to relieve the hatred in her heart, but she didn't expect that she would fall into the hands of the thieves.
Her lips trembled a few times, and she wanted to beg for mercy.
Suddenly, she recognized who it was.
Her pupils tightened, and she squeezed out a voice from her throat with difficulty: "Ji..."
The black-clothed man tightened his fingers.
Qinglan didn't have time to struggle. With a "click", her neck was twisted off.
The man in black saw that her head was tilted and she was no longer breathing. He turned his eyes to the driver who was unconscious on the ground. He tore off a token from his waist and threw it on the ground. He directly pulled off Qinglan's belt, put it around her neck, and hung her on the tree.
After thinking about it, he hung the driver up as well so that his feet could touch the ground. Because he had fainted, his whole body was soft, so his neck was tied tightly on the belt. The man in black woke the driver up and left quickly.
The driver woke up in pain and struggled to touch the ground with his feet. He hurriedly took off the belt around his neck, and his legs were weak and fell to the ground. When he saw the token on the ground, his heart beat to his throat and he was still in shock.
——
Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
Su Jihong's wound had been bandaged and was not poisoned. His face was blue and black, and he was tricked by Su Wan again.
"Where's the lady?" Su Jihong looked at the sky. Qinglan had been out for a long time and was still not seen. "Is she back?"
"My Lord, the lady said that she has been unlucky recently. She went to the National Temple to burn incense and get rid of bad luck. She hasn't come back yet." The servant calculated the time and replied carefully: "She should be back at this time."
Su Jihong raised his hand to press his throbbing right eyelid, and suddenly felt uneasy.
"You arrange for someone to go to the National Temple to pick up the lady." Su Jihong stood up while speaking, "Forget it, I'll go myself."
The servant hurriedly arranged for someone to accompany him, and went to the stable to tell the driver to harness the horses.
Su Jihong strode to the door and saw that Qinglan's driver was in a mess, and his eyes were stern.
"What happened? Where's the lady?"
The driver knelt down in front of Su Jihong and cried loudly: "My Lord, my wife...my wife was hanged. The murderer knocked me unconscious and hung me on a tree. Fortunately, I woke up and escaped. This...this is the token I picked up on the ground. It was...dropped by the murderer."
Su Jihong was stunned, as if he didn't understand what the driver said.
"My Lord, I have seen this token. The people around the prince have this kind of token." The driver handed the token to Su Jihong: "All the guards brought by the lady were killed."
Su Jihong took the token and recognized it at a glance. It was really the token of the prince's subordinates.
He clenched his fist and the bandaged wound burst.
The veins on his forehead bulged out, and his eyes were full of gloom.
The prince said that the regent wanted his life and ordered the prince to find evidence of his crime.
He actually believed the prince's words, but he didn't expect that the prince wanted to kill him, fearing that he would leak out what the prince had done.
Su Jihong sneered and was determined to make Ji Wufeng pay the price!
