This time, I stayed in bed for three months.

It's because Gao Xian's knife slashed too hard, and my internal organs were hurt too deeply.When the imperial doctor took my pulse, he didn't believe that I could wake up, it was simply impossible.

I also think this is a bit ridiculous.

"This is your fate! Why is it absurd!" Gu Jian held a small medicine bowl, blowing his beard and staring at me.

I silently gave him a white look, and continued to look at the sky in silence.

"A'Du, let me tell you a story." Gu Jian came over.

Again.

I frowned with a headache.

Gu Jian has been telling me stories for three months in a row, from ghosts and snake gods to the creation of heaven and earth, from Nuwa creating man to Dayu controlling the floods, from the nine princesses just giving birth to Chaoyang, to Chaoyang's hundred-day feast...

I really have heard enough!

"Shut up!" I said for the first time in nearly ten days.

Gu Jian's dark eyes lit up instantly, he said, A'Du, did you speak?Are you still in pain?Do you want me to help you up, or take you to the yard to sit in the sun for a while?

I took a deep breath, "Gu Jian, am I injured or disabled? I can move."

"I know." Gu Jian sat on the edge of the bed and smiled slightly, "I just want to stay with you for a while."

"But I don't want to be with you."

I turn over and don't look at him again.

After lying down for such a long time, I felt quite cold-hearted.

I heard the person behind me put the medicine bowl lightly on the table, I heard his breathing a little short, and then he left.

Good to go, quiet to go, I raised my hand and wiped my eyes.

Gu Jian never came to my place for many days.

"A'Du, did you quarrel with Gu Jian?" Ninth Princess gave me medicine and asked cautiously.

I shook my head.

"Then why haven't I seen him for a long time?" Ninth Princess muttered to herself.

It's been a long time, but only four and a half days.

On the morning of the fifth day, I sat in the yard basking in the sun, as lazy as a little chubby cat in Xizhou, and could lie on my stomach for an hour without moving.

There is noise from the roof.

"Here, Liangguo."

Gu Jian stood in front of me holding a bag of preserved fruits.

He was still dressed in white, but this time his face was as white as his clothes, his lips were not very bloody, and he looked a little weak.

I looked at him for a while, reached out to take the package, and while picking a piece of fruit into my mouth, said casually,

"Fighted with someone? So haggard."

Gu Jian pursed his lips, smiled and didn't reply to my words.

What does he care about?I bit the preserved fruit, and the sweet and sour juice flowed down my throat.

"I asked the imperial doctor just now, and said that your body is still stable now, and you will be fine if you cultivate well."

How about fooling around with sleep?I know my own body well, not to mention the severity of the injury this time, even if I don’t hurt my scattered old injuries this time, I won’t be at peace.

But it's strange, after waking up, it seems that my old injury has subsided a lot, and I no longer feel chills and chest tightness and pain. Could it be that Gao Xian's saber split open my Ren Du Ermai?

I was thinking wildly, but Gu Jian stood up suddenly, reached out and touched my forehead, his eyes were full of tenderness.

"I'm leaving, you have a good rest."

His hands were cold and cold, I stared at him blankly, and didn't recover for a long time.

The cold fruit in his mouth suddenly became bitter.

Ten days later, Princess Jiu ran in in a panic and told me that A'Du was not good, and Gu Jian left!

A letter, a long sword, and he just returned to Xizhou.

I froze in place, not knowing whether to cry or laugh for a while.

He's gone, and I don't have to see him again.

He is gone and I will never see him again.

He left, Gu Jian put down his long sword and left.

I didn't close my eyes all night.

As soon as I close my eyes, my mind is filled with the days when I was with him in Xizhou in those years.

Maybe in Gu Jian's eyes, I'm just a bodyguard of the Nine Princesses, maybe I'm not even a bodyguard, but I admit that in my heart, Gu Jian is not just a Central Plains person, the master of the Nine Princesses.

Since when did I feel this way?

Maybe, it was when I began to think his white clothes were pleasing to the eye, maybe, it was when he said that A'Du, I'm here, was covered with blood on his face, maybe, it was when I knocked him off the cliff with a knife.

I was already, hopelessly, in love with him.

I have been avoiding, I don't want to think about it, I fell in love with a Central Plains man, a sinner who killed Dan Chi and Xizhou.

I'm afraid, I'm ashamed, I remember all this, I can't face Gu Jian squarely, let alone face my dead brother and Danchi people.

So I have been hiding, I think that as long as I die one day, this idea will die with me, no one knows, no one will think about it.

But now, he's gone and never coming back again, this idea popped up by itself, and I didn't stop it anymore.

I smiled wryly, Gu Jian, let's just forget each other in the rivers and lakes, for me and for you, it is the best ending.

I thought I could let it go, but for many days in a row, I couldn't sleep. Although my body was fine, my spirit was not going down.

It was another night full of moonlight, I opened my eyes and waited for dawn, when I suddenly heard a slight sound from the roof.

My first thought was Gu Jian, and then I immediately scolded myself for being worthless, Gu Jian has already left, so why would it be him.

That's not him, that's the thief.I closed my eyes slightly, and slowly squeezed the golden knife under the bed with the fist in my hand.I've been lying here for a long time, and it's time to move.

This person is very skilled, from the roof to the window to enter the house, there is no sound at all.If I hadn't slept and heard the sound of the tiles, I would not have noticed him.

There are two people in the room, with each other harboring evil intentions...

I noticed that the sound of breathing was getting closer and closer to me. The moment he stopped, I kicked off the quilt and pulled out the golden knife to greet him.

The moment I saw the white clothes, my knife was stopped abruptly by me.

Gu Jian held the quilt I kicked out in his hand, looked at me in panic, and before I recovered, he put the quilt on my head and flew out of the window.

Jin Cuo Dao slashed open the quilt, and I chased it out as soon as I gritted my teeth.

We ran across the roofs of the East Palace, crossed the streets, and finally I caught him on the roof of Mingyufang.

It's only been a few days since I've seen him, but his light work has become so decadent, it's as slow as taking a walk, and I suspect that he asked me to hold him down on purpose.

"Gu Jian! Why are you running away!" I yelled at him out of breath, "Didn't you go back to Xizhou! Why are you back again!"

He clutched his chest and said nothing, his face was as white as paper.

"Don't pretend to be you, I didn't try hard!" I hammered his shoulder, "Did you come back to see Princess Jiu? You have only been away for a few days and you don't remember where Princess Jiu lives! I almost killed you as a thief It's gone!" I roared angrily, yelling out all the grievances of these days, and then turned my head and left.

As soon as I turned around, I was hugged by Gu Jian. He wrapped his arms around me from behind, grabbed me with both hands, and locked me up.

"You still want to fight!" I turned my head to stare at him, but saw that he was sweating profusely.

It's not very hot today.

Just as I was wondering, I saw his body shake violently, and then spit out a mouthful of blood, flew before my eyes and landed on the roof.

At the same time, when he loosened his grip on my arm, Gu Jian fell down as if his body had lost all bones.

I grabbed him subconsciously, and the two fell straight off the roof.

The bluestone slab was cold and hard, my chest was full of meat and vegetables, and Gu Jian's body in my arms was cold.

His eyes were blurred and his lips were covered in blood.

"Gu Jian..." I looked at him tremblingly, my hands shaking violently.

He looked at me with concentrated eyes and smiled,

"A'Du, I'm here to see you..."

He closed his eyes.

"Gu Jian..." My heart sank violently, and I went to feel for his pulse.

A dead silence.

My tears fell on his face, and he didn't move, not even twitching his eyelashes.

His body was as cold as the bluestone slab beneath him, frighteningly cold.

His chest was calm, without heaving.

I froze for a long time, and finally let out a heart-piercing cry.

I hugged Gu Jian and cried in the deserted street, like a ghost, extremely stern.

"A'Du! A'Du!" Pei Zhao called me, I looked at his face slowly, then turned my head to look at Gu Jian who was being carried away by the guards, I couldn't see anything for a moment.

Gu Jian died.

Then I die too.
