A life for a life?

The leader of the Dark Guard quietly looked at Nona. Seeing her calm face, it didn't seem like she was joking.

After a long while, he gently nodded his head, "Ok!"

At the same time, he pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed at his own heart without hesitation.

Suddenly, Nona was scared silly. She screamed and grabbed his hand, "Hey, are you crazy? Why are you committing suicide!"

Although Jiu Niang was fast enough, the dagger still pierced through his chest, causing bright red blood to flow out from the wound. Fortunately, because of Jiu Niang's interference, the dark guard leader was afraid of hurting her.

To him, Situ Xi's life was more important than anything else.

Since Jiu Niang had offered to exchange her life for his, he naturally wouldn't hesitate.

"Look, look at the blood!" Are you crazy? Why would you want to kill yourself? "

As Jiu Niang helped him stop the bleeding, she complained angrily in her heart.

She had never thought that this guy would suddenly think about it on his own. Moreover, he did not hesitate to stab her in the heart. If she had reacted quickly just now, this guy would probably have already turned into a corpse.

But...

The leader of the Dark Guard obediently knelt on the spot, allowing Jiu Niang to stop the bleeding. Looking at his pair of small hands constantly moving around his body, his little figure kept going back and forth like a small top. He didn't know why, but his heart suddenly felt warm.

However, he still didn't quite understand. "Didn't you say that a life could be exchanged for a life?"

Right, I only exchanged my life for her life according to her request, why does she look so unhappy?

Could it be that her guess was wrong? She didn't want her own life, but someone else's? Thinking of this, the dark guard leader, who always thought that he was very smart, also felt somewhat conflicted. He quickly turned his mind and carefully recalled, other than himself, who else could it be?

If her so-called life was exchanged for a life, then that person would definitely be someone she knew. It couldn't be the young master, so who else could it be?

When they first met with her and your other little girl, they only had a dozen or so people left. Now, they only have five people left … Since it was a life for a life, then it definitely wouldn't be the young master. If it wasn't the young master, then who could it be? The others didn't seem to have spoken to her at all, right?

From the very beginning, it seemed like the person she was in contact with was herself?

"Is there something wrong with you? I said one life in exchange for one life, that's fine, but since you're dead, what did I get in exchange?"

Fortunately, the wound wasn't deep and the bleeding stopped very quickly. Nona glared at him with a darkened face. He was depressed in his heart. He really didn't expect his communication to be so bad. To be able to make a mistake like that, he was truly scared to death. He really didn't hesitate to slash just now.

"When I said 'one life in exchange for one life', I could save him and guarantee that he would … Right, where are you guys going? "

After talking for half a day, Jiu Niang still didn't know where they were heading to. However, she could tell that these people's identities weren't simple. If that was the case, Jincheng City definitely wouldn't be their destination.

All he could guarantee was that he would live well until he reached the place where they wanted to go.

Nona looked at the leader of the Dark Guard, but …

The Young Lord's identity was special, and these were all secrets that could not be casually leaked out.

Therefore, in the face of Jiu Niang's question, he could only remain silent.

"You … Forget it, forget it, just don't say it! You know him well enough, and I can only promise you that he'll be all right before you go where you want him to go. "

Since these people were not simple, some things were definitely not convenient to say, so Nona did not force them.

"When he arrives at his destination, you will follow me. From today onwards, I will be your master."

When she thought about how this guy almost committed suicide just now, she simply explained it to him.

She had taken a fancy to this guy. He was an expert. No matter what she did with him, she would have some protection. At least she wouldn't have to be afraid of a wall or something and wouldn't be able to go up.

If he had had such a powerful expert by his side and had shut the city gate, he would have immediately climbed over the wall and entered the city. He wouldn't have been left behind and would have been eaten like a sheep.

"Alright!"

After the leader heard this, he nodded without hesitation.

Even if she wanted him to kill himself immediately, he would agree without hesitation. After all, the young master was in a precarious situation. Although he had to be on guard against others, it didn't mean that he didn't do anything along the way. He had secretly sought out quite a few doctors, but he wasn't sure if any of them could do it …

Although Nona only said that she could guarantee that the Young Master would be fine before going to the place they wanted him to go … But... As long as the young master was successfully brought back, the master would definitely have a way …

As long as they arrived at the capital, the young master would be safe.

"Hmm, in that case, we can be considered to have reached an agreement."

Yes, I didn't expect everything to be so smooth. Nona was very satisfied.

Looking at the man standing in front of her, Nona felt very proud of herself, tsk tsk … He really didn't expect that Big Bro would one day be able to subdue such an expert. With such an expert by his side, it would be much more convenient for him to do anything in the future … At least... At the very least, he wouldn't need to buy that fellow's favor …

Each and every one of that fellow's people were worth around fifty to eighty thousand yuan, although their martial arts were also pretty good … However, he was still someone from the other side, so it wouldn't be convenient for him to use him …

"Then... "Then the young master …"

Since they had already reached an agreement, the first thing the Dark Guard thought of was Situ Xi, who was still unconscious.

The young lord's current situation was extremely dangerous. He was truly worried that Situ Xi would remain unconscious and then never wake up again …

"Don't worry about that. I said I guarantee that he will definitely survive." Nodding, Jiu Niang tiptoed and patted his shoulder. "However, Mother has more important matters to take care of."

Yes, there are indeed matters of greater importance to be dealt with now.

The leader of the Dark Guard looked at Jiu Niang in doubt. Although he didn't say anything, he had written down all the thoughts in his mind on his face.

Other than the Young Lord's matter, what else was there to do? What could be more important than the Young Lord's matter?

"Well, I don't know your name yet!"

Right, this was something even more important that Ninth Madame said. Even now, she still didn't know his name. He couldn't have become one of her subordinates, yet she didn't even know his own name, right?

"You … "This is …"

Originally, the leader of the dark guard thought that it was some important matter, but he didn't expect …

He reflexively widened his eyes and looked at Nona in displeasure. He wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat as he obediently shut his mouth and mumbled, "Number one."

Yes, as dark guardians, they only have a rank, no name.

As the leader of this generation of dark guards, he was naturally number one.

"Number one? How could this be called a name? Forget it, forget it, let me get you one. "From now on, just call me Lil 'White!"

Jiu Niang shook her head in dissatisfaction. Sometimes, this guy seemed to be very smart, but sometimes he was also very stupid.

"You … Are you sure... The Young Lord can wake up? "

Leader of the Dark Guard, oh … With his full beard and ferocious appearance, it was fortunate that Nona was already familiar with him. Otherwise, she would have been scared to death if he were to hold her hand like this.

"Ann, Ann, just trust me."

Pushing his hand away, Jiu Niang confidently walked forward. "Hurry, hurry and help him up!"

That's right, we finally managed to send those people away with great difficulty. Right now, there were only the two people left in the room, Ninth Niang and Lil 'White.

Although Lil 'White was puzzled, when he saw the confidence on his aunt's face … He could only grit his teeth and carefully pull Situ Xi up …

Ninth Madame picked up the teacup from the table and scooped a cup from the basin before pouring it into Situ Xi's mouth without hesitation.

"You … You... "If the young master has any mishaps …"

The strong smell of the pancreas and the pungent smell made Lil 'White's face turn even darker in that instant.

He suddenly felt that he had gone mad. How could he believe a little girl that was still wet behind the ears. If a basin of water made from a pancreas could cure the young master, then … All these years Master had spent so much manpower and resources to find those Godly Doctor prescriptions, and all of that had gone to hell …

"Don't worry, I said I won't die so I won't die."

When she saw Lil 'White's nervous expression, Nona calmly waved her hand.

But... Xiao Yan's gaze fell on that face and deeply felt that his name did not seem appropriate …

He was truly not at all pale. Furthermore, not only was he not white at all, he was also pitch black with a full beard on his face … Of course, the thing that made Nona most depressed was that this fellow didn't seem to even realize the profound meaning of the name she gave him …

Forget it, forget it. They were indeed not from the same world. Communicating with each other was really too much of a headache.

One cup was poured, and Nona continued to work hard. Then, she drank another cup … Soon, the bottom of the pot was revealed …

"Alright, we'll be waiting next …"

As for Situ Xi's situation, as she was eating her medicine, it was impossible for the old poison to break out, so the only possibility was that someone poisoned him again in the middle. This was originally all Ninth Madame's guess, but after interacting with Little White, she realized that Little White would also have the same idea …

So...

Haha, that's easy.

In modern times, poisoning was basically washing the stomach and replacing the blood. However, without these medical devices, he had used the most primitive method: vomiting!

And soapy water is the best thing...

Sure enough, as soon as Nona finished speaking, the unconscious Situ Xi suddenly began to twitch.

"Quick, help him up!"

At that moment, as Jiu Niang called out to Little White, she picked up the chamber pot by the bed. Just as she lifted it up, Situ Xi violently vomited …

"Ugh …"

"Ugh …"

In an instant, the entire room was filled with a foul stench that made Jiu Niang quickly cover her nose.

Fortunately, he had been running away from danger and hadn't eaten much in the past few days. As a result, Situ Xi's body became weaker and weaker, so he basically didn't eat much.

Although the vomit was dirty, Jiu Niang still checked it carefully.

Needless to say, this search gave Nona some clues.

"Tsk tsk, these leave-like things are called oleanders and they're extremely poisonous. It's a good thing that Situ Xi was poisoned since she was young. She's consumed an uncountable amount of poison all these years, and her body is too weak to digest them. Otherwise …"
