Pathological Trapping - Chap 100
 The general sitting on the chair suddenly froze, covered his chest, and spat out a mouthful of black blood. It splashed half of the table. A few drops splashed on Li Dezhuang.
  The waiter smashed the wine glass, took out a dagger from his arms, and stabbed Liu Yong straight at it.
  Liu Yong’s eyes became fierce and he overturned the table with one hand.
  Crash…
  The bowls and plates on the table fell to the ground with a loud bang.
  The waiter couldn’t dodge in time and was hit hard by the table.
  As Liu Yong exerted his strength, the poison he drank moved faster in his body. He could no longer hold on and half-knelt on the ground. Black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, dripping onto the ground.
  There were hurried footsteps outside.
  Neat and orderly.
  Getting closer and closer to their box!
  Li Dezhuang was surprised, “It’s poisonous? Why is it poisonous?”
  This is the capital city.
  At the feet of the emperor.
  Who is acting so rebellious? !
  A face flashed through Li Dezhuang’s mind.
  Could it be Mu Jian?
  He quickly ran to Liu Yong’s side.
  Liu Zhuangshi squatted beside Liu Yong, and touched his father’s face with his little hand, and felt blood on the corner of his father’s mouth. It was a bit scary.
  Liu Zhuangshi’s eyes were red and his voice was trembling.
  ”Dad, you’re poisoned…”
  Li Dezhuang: “General Liu, how are you?”
  Liu Yong looked at Li Dezhuang and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
  ”Bang!”
  Someone kicked the door outside, and several masked men with knives rushed in. The cold light reflected by the knives in their hands was frightening.
  Liu Yong grabbed the pale-faced Liu Zhuangshi’s arm and pushed the child into Li Dezhuang’s arms.
  ”Brother Xiao Li, I’m leaving my child in your care!”
  Li Dezhuang widened his eyes.
  The intruders didn’t give them any chance.
  Liu Yong gritted his teeth, raised the knife in his hand, and chopped the man off with all his strength. He took out a token from his arms and threw it to Li Dezhuang, shouting, “Go!”
  The copper token felt cold to the touch, and its sharp edges hurt as Li Dezhuang’s hands tightened ever more.
  Liu Zhuangshi struggled in Li Dezhuang’s arms.
  ”Let me go! Let me go! Dad! Dad—”
  Liu Yong held the sword with both hands and stabbed it into the enemy’s chest with all his might. He shouted loudly and put his entire weight on him, forcing him to rush to the other end of the room.
  Seeing this, the other killers raised their knives and slashed at Liu Yong.
  At the critical moment, Li Dezhuang gritted his teeth, covered Liu Zhuangshi’s eyes, picked up the child and ran outside.
  The noise behind me gradually faded away.
  Only Liu Zhuangshi’s struggle and crying could be heard, which were particularly clear.
  It was already a stretch for him to run away with a half-grown child in his arms, and now the child was still struggling desperately.
  Li Dezhuang lost his balance and both he and Liu Zhuangshi rolled down the stairs.
  A second before he fell, he heard someone calling him in a trembling voice.
  The world was spinning.
  The stairs hurt Li Dezhuang all over.
  His head seemed to hit something with a bang, and after the muffled sound, the world around him turned into a long, shrill cry.
  Finally, the world stopped spinning. The scene in front of him became extremely blurry. It was as if something had blocked his eyes.
  Someone called him from far away, “Guard Li!”
  Li Dezhuang looked towards the source of the sound with great effort.
  The sounds around me gradually became clearer.
  Someone screamed in fright.
  Someone shouted loudly and evacuated the crowd.
  Someone picked him up, held his face, and asked him if he was okay.
  Li Dezhuang slowly turned his head and glanced at the child who was lying on the ground and unconscious.
  Then he slowly turned his head to look at the person in front of him. He was so anxious that his eyes turned red. He held his face, very carefully, but very anxiously.
  Mu Jian hugged Li Dezhuang.
  ”Where’s the imperial physician! Imperial physician! Call the imperial physician quickly—”
  He swallowed back the rest of the words because of the sharp pain in his chest.
  Mu Jian lowered his head.
  A small knife flashing with cold light stabbed into his heart.
  He smiled and said, “Guard Li wants to kill me?”
  Li Dezhuang was indifferent, “You did it, didn’t you?”
  Mu Jian was silent and lowered his head slightly.
  The closer he got, the more Li Dezhuang’s knife retreated.
  He saw it and was delighted.
  Sweetly and tenderly, she pressed against his forehead.
  ”It’s me.”
  ”puff……”
  The sound of the sharp blade breaking through the skin and penetrating into the flesh was extremely clear between the two people.
  Mu Jian looked at Li Dezhuang. Li Dezhuang also looked at Mu Jian.
  After a moment, Li Dezhuang spoke, his voice cold and without a trace of warmth, “He is a good general, you shouldn’t kill him.”
  Mu Jian didn’t say anything and just looked at him in silence.
  Li Dezhuang spoke each word with a murderous intent in his voice.
  ”Tell your people to stop!”
  Chapter 78 Aren’t you going to kill me? Why haven’t you done it yet?
  There was no smile on Mu Jian’s face. He told him seriously, “It’s too late. There is no antidote for that poison.”
  Li Dezhuang looked at him in disbelief, his hand holding the knife tightened, his teeth grinding and clacking. The sound seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
  ”How dare you? How dare you! This is the capital! Aren’t you afraid?”
  ”Since I have taken action, I will definitely be able to retreat safely.” Mu Jian stared at Li Dezhuang, “Guard Li, are you worried about me?”
  ”Mu Jian! I’m not kidding you!”
  Li Dezhuang glared at him with hatred, his eyes were bloodshot, and there were sparkling tears in his eyes. He was obviously crying, but the unwillingness and stubbornness in his eyes were hard to ignore.
  Mu Jian slowly reached out his hand and brushed the blood flowing from the wound on his forehead.
