3. Coma

As if a ray of sunlight shot into the dark world, Liu Ting, who was looking at the black door, endured great pain and moved. It's a pity that the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info just a moment made her almost faint in pain.

She didn't know when the sounds of the fight stopped, but she was sure she was incapacitated. Every time Yun Qi pulled, it brought her more pain. I want to get rid of each other, but I have a weak heart.

"There's no sound anymore." She comforted herself helplessly, and also said to Yun Qi: "The bandits may be gone." ”

"They didn't leave!" Very reluctantly, he hooked the corners of his mouth, and Yun Qi, whose eyes were full of tears, wiped his eyes. "Miss, listen carefully, the bandits are still counting in the courtyard.

Counting? Liu Ting paid attention for a moment and caught the rough sound coming from the wind. The man spoke not very authentic Chinese: "There is only one dead female dependant in the inner room - nine." ”

"Let's take a look at the dead outside." A man with a heavy sense of vicissitudes answered: "Don't miss it, count it." ”

It's just a rhythm that doesn't let go of any of them! Do you even have to match the number of dead people with the number given by your employer?

No one answered Liu Ting's question, only Yun Qi's whisper rang in his ears.

"They've only counted to nine, and I'm afraid it's going to take a while to finish counting. We're going to have to take advantage of this opportunity to get out. Yun Qi, whose lips trembled, begged softly: "Good young lady." Hurry up. Just get out the back door and we'll be able to go home. ”

"I ...... I also want. But as soon as you touch me, I want to scream in pain! Liu Ting closed her eyes, lowered her voice and said, "It's better to die two than one!" You go. ”

"If the young lady is okay, the maid may have a way to live. If there is anything wrong with the young lady, the whole family of the servant will not die well. How could you leave Miss and run away alone? ”

Yun Qi said exactly the same thing as she did. Not only did she not leave, but she also dragged Liu Ting to the back door in sobbing. Perhaps it was because he heard something in the air, or maybe something had happened, Zhuang Shuo woke up in pain and found himself lying under the dense bushes, and Yun Qi was long gone.

Through the gaps in the leaves, she looked at the clouds in the sky and felt a cold hard object at hand. Just as he was about to turn his neck to observe, the chaotic footsteps came from far and near, accompanied by a man's roar: "Damn, those two female dependents must have slipped away through the back door." ”

A voice that seemed familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had heard it, then floated in. The man said, "Hurry up." The garrison was almost there. ”

What happened next, Liu Ting closed her eyes and didn't dare to look at it again. She only knew that the footsteps were coming and going, accompanied by the man's shouting: "Tell you to guard the back door, you know how to fucking drink." Get drunk as soon as you drink, and sleep as soon as you get drunk. Even if you kill this, there's still one left. Most of them ran through the back door? ”

"Absolutely...... Absolutely no running. The somewhat ambiguous male voice grinned and said, "I saw this beauty." ”

"You haven't seen the robe fall off in front of the beauty until now?" The angry male voice became louder. Liu Ting didn't even need to look at it to imagine how angry the man who spoke was.

"Could it be that it's a robe dropped by a servant?" The voice with a sense of vicissitudes sounded again, but it didn't bring Liu Ting any good feelings. Because, the next sentence he said was: "Search around again." ”

Liu Ting knows that as long as they search hard, they can always find themselves. The large thickets only delayed the discovery and did not allow her to escape the search. But the desire to survive and the loss of control of her limbs made her lie motionless under the branches and leaves, not even daring to blink her eyes. Through the gaps in the bushes, she could see brightly colored robes swaying around. She didn't know whether to be happy or sad. Thankfully, the gaps in the bushes didn't make her see any misery, and she didn't have to face the unbearable landscape; It is sad that the deaths of countless people cannot change the fate that cannot be escaped.

In her contradictory thinking, she felt that she had regained her legs and hands, but she didn't dare to try. Spotting people in flamboyant costumes starting to search the bushes, she bordered on despair. As if a pair of feet with pointy scalp boots appeared a few steps away and kept kicking away the stumps on the edge of the bushes, Liu Ting felt that her limit was approaching.

She slowly closed her eyes, ready to meet the last moments of her life in this gesture, but she didn't want her fate to be rewritten by the distant shouts. The voice was hurried and interspersed with a local accent that I couldn't hear anywhere - "The garrison has entered the nunnery gate and is ready to withdraw!" ”

"What if there's one left?"

This voice sounded beside Liu Ting, giving her the illusion that the other party was talking in her ear.

"Go outside and find a random woman, and after killing it, put on the robe you picked up and make up the number." The voice went from far to near, and from near to far: "Anyway, the owner hurriedly found us, and only gave the number of people." ”

Just take two more steps, and you will definitely find that Liu Ting's feet left without hesitation. After the chaotic footsteps, the whole courtyard fell silent, and the cry that Liu Ting had been pressing in her throat for a long time burst out of her mouth. When her hand covered her bloodstained lips, she realized that she could move both hands.

Before he lost consciousness again, the small courtyard was lively again. Liu Ting could see through the gaps in the branches and leaves the soldiers' costumes that she had seen in the Zhongwu General's Mansion. She opened her mouth and just wanted to ask for help, but what Li Ju said flashed in her mind.

Liu Ting stopped struggling and let the darkness swallow her up again. It was only when it became difficult to breathe that she woke up. Finding herself completely soaked in muddy water, she moved her legs before she fully woke up, remembering everything that had happened before in great pain. The desire to flee overcame the pain all over her body. Turning over from the mud, she not only saw the small black door, but also found the broken silver beside her. Thinking that this was what Li Ju prepared and Yun Qi left for herself, and both of them had passed away, Liu Ting pinched the broken silver in her hand tightly.

She clenched her fists and crawled towards the back door with the strength of her elbows and legs. The pouring rain poured down the entire courtyard so that no other sound could be heard, which also added a lot of resistance to her. But she didn't dare to stop, so she could only forcibly move her increasingly heavy body towards the back door. When even breathing could bring pain, she finally saw the mountain road. A path already made of mud stretched a few steps in front of her, zigzags downward. Liu Ting didn't think about anything else, and climbed the mud path with great difficulty. She didn't climb far before the world in her eyes spun rapidly, and the sweetness in her throat became stronger and stronger.

The moment before her forehead hit the tree, Liu Ting asked herself weakly: Am I rolling down the mountain? Am I going to die?
