Chapter 236 Gong Shangjiao was almost controlled
This description was more disgusting than the truth. Gong Shangjiao was deeply disgusted and his face turned ashen.
Gong Yuanzheng hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea: "Brother, I told you not to overeat, but you refused to listen. Are you feeling uncomfortable now? Quickly drink a cup of digestion tea, which is specially brewed for you."
Gong Shangjiao was overwhelmed by the tea before he even drank it. He squinted his eyes and stared at the little green tea brother, his fists clenched.
Seeing Gong Shangjiao looking like he was about to jump up and hit someone, Zhang Xueming quickly suppressed his smile and helped the young man who loved making tea to divert his attention: "When did you realize that your reaction was wrong? We have captured at least 80 female assassins without a front in the past. We have seen all kinds of them. Even if she is beautiful, it is impossible for you to be soft-hearted when you know she is a female assassin without a front."
After these words were spoken, Gong Shangjiao's expression softened. He glanced at Gong Yuanzheng, then picked up the teacup and took two sips to suppress the nausea.
The matter was strange, and he was afraid that he would be fooled like this time, so he simply told everything without hiding anything: "It's funny, I didn't realize something was wrong right away. Seeing Shangguan Qian crying, I actually softened my heart, felt sorry for her, and even thought, 'She was just forced to survive in the enemy's lair, enduring humiliation and surviving for self-protection and revenge, so it's understandable even if she did something wrong'."
Gong Yuanzheng was surprised and wanted to say something, but Zhang Xueming held his hand to stop him.
"In order to prove that she was an orphan of Gushan Sect, Shangguan Qian showed me the butterfly-shaped red birthmark on the back of her neck. It was indeed consistent with the birthmark that the direct descendants of Gushan Sect had recorded in the Gushan Sect archives that I had read.
I then thought, 'The people in the martial arts world don't know the inside story, and they despise the palace for not helping the Gushan Sect. She is an orphan of the Gushan Sect, and she has misunderstandings about the palace and is unwilling to tell the truth. It is not easy for her to tell part of the truth.'"
The more Gong Shangjiao recalled the details, the more he realized the horror of having no control over what he thought and what he felt, and his tone was very heavy.
"At that time, I remembered that the doctor who treated Gong Huanyu mentioned to me that Gong Huanyu also had the same birthmark on the back of his neck. I thought it was a coincidence. Just as we confirmed that Brother Yuanzheng and Zhaozhao were cousins, we found out that Gong Huanyu and Shangguan Qian were also descendants of the Gushan Sect. Maybe they are also cousins."
Gong Shangjiao raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Xueming: "It was because I thought of you and my brother Yuanzheng that I suddenly remembered what you once said to the Swordless Assassin."
"'No matter how pitiful your past was, it was not caused by us, nor by the innocent people you killed. We are not qualified to forgive you on behalf of the dead. We can only send you to meet the dead.' Gong Shangjue repeated those words word by word and whispered, "Then I woke up."
When he realized how weird and outrageous his previous thoughts were, and how strange that state was, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Gong Shangjiao left Shangguan Qian and turned to look at Yun Weishan, but saw the doctor in the cell with a worried look on his face.
When he asked, he found out that Yun Weishan suddenly fell into a coma just when he left Shangguan Qian's cell.
The knife wound on Yun Weishan's chest looked serious, but it actually did not hurt her heart or lungs. She did not lose much blood, and the wound had already scabbed over. The doctor could not find out what caused her coma.
Gong Shangjiao's scalp went numb after hearing this. He didn't dare to stay any longer and left in a hurry.
It was not until he saw Zhang Xueming in Zheng Palace that he realized with shock that according to his temper, he should have killed Shangguan Qian and Yun Weishan immediately if he found something wrong, but he actually forgot. Or rather, he did not have such an idea at all.
"I was controlled at that time, Zhao Zhao, it was that kind of power, everything I thought was distorted." Gong Shangjiao's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, "There was no sign, I didn't even know when I was attacked."
Horror, fear...all kinds of emotions came and went, tangled into a mess, but anger was the clearest.
For a person with a strong desire for control, this was unacceptable. He couldn't even accept the three-hour coma caused by the anthelmintic, let alone this state where even his thoughts were out of control.
Zhang Xueming suddenly grabbed the pulse point of Gong Shangjiao's right hand, and exerted a little force with his thumb. Gong Shangjiao's fingers loosened and the teacup fell.
Before he could react, he saw Zhang Xueming's left hand quickly catch the porcelain enamel floral teacup and turn it around in his palm.
Those complicated emotions and rising anger were interrupted by her sudden action. Gong Shangjiao was stunned for a long time before asking her: "What are you doing?"
Zhang Xueming ignored him, poured out the remaining tea, and called Gong Yuanzheng: "A Yuan, bring out the set of black pottery tea bowls with peach blossoms for my brother to use. They are thick and durable."
Gong Shangjiao finally realized that he had been getting angrier and angrier the more he thought about it, and he almost broke the teacup. The teacup was exquisite and gorgeous, and it must have been a favorite item that she had just found in her "dowry". He almost lost it in his hands the first time he used it. Zhang Xueming was petty.
"...Zheng Zhaozhao, are you still in the mood to take care of the teacups at this time?" Gong Shangjiao's mouth twitched slightly, "Your brother's mind was controlled by an unknown force, and I almost brought the Bladeless Assassin back to Jiao Palace for 'care'. This kind of thing will happen again once, and you don't worry that something will happen to your brother?"
Zhang Xueming glanced at Gong Shangjiao's expression and estimated that he was more stable now. Then he took the black pottery tea bowl as big as a rice bowl handed to him by Gong Yuanzheng, picked up the teapot and poured a bowl of medicinal tea for Gong Shangjiao.
"Brother, you are joking. How can I not worry about you? If you really do that, I will rush to the Corner Palace with a knife as soon as I hear the news. No matter what you say, I will chop that person to death in front of you. If you still can't wake up, I will go to the dungeon and kill all the Wufeng."
She smiled gently, and her voice, as pleasant as the sound of forest and spring water, revealed a strong sense of hostility and blood.
"If brother is still... then I can only use force to wake him up. I think the blood circulation, blood stasis and muscle relaxation palm will have some effect."
Gong Shangjiao shivered unconsciously. The phantom pain that swept through his body made him completely calm down from body to mind.
"Come to think of it, Ayuan and I discussed this issue yesterday, about the reason why the mysterious power prevented us from digging out Wufeng's lair. But as you know, Ayuan and I are young and have wild ideas, so I didn't tell you because I was afraid you wouldn't believe me. Now that you have experienced it yourself, I think it's time to talk to you about it."
Zhang Xueming glanced at Gong Yuanzheng, who nodded and explained the story in the storybook world to Gong Shangjiao.
Gong Shangjiao was stunned for a long while before he sighed deeply, neither saying whether he believed it nor whether he didn't: "If this is true, my brother Yuanzheng and I are controlled, but you, Zhaozhao, can be saved. But if you, Zhaozhao, are controlled..."
"That won't happen." Zhang Xueming smiled and said confidently, "Brother has never read storybooks, so he doesn't know. This type of story will definitely not end with total destruction.
Wu Feng killed innocent people indiscriminately and wreaked havoc on the martial arts world, a true villain. Since Gongmen was regarded as the leader of the righteous, it was inevitable that the righteous would destroy the villain.
Besides, I still have A Yuan. Even if that power wants to do something to me, A Yuan will find out and wake me up in the first place. I am sure of that."
