Chapter 20: Goodbye to the Old Friend
Mu Mingxue and Ye Wan were in the thick smoke when they saw a masked man in black running towards them, and they wanted to raise their swords to fight, but they heard the man in black say to them, "Do you want to die here?" In desperation, under the cover of thick smoke, the two were rescued from the chief's mansion by the man in black.
Not far from the chief's house, I saw three horses waiting there. The three of them galloped on horseback, and they didn't know how long they ran, but they came to the back mountain of Wuyaju.
The man in black motioned for the two to stop, and then there was a whistle, and the three horses galloped away in one direction.
The man in black said in a low voice, "In the next few days, someone will search for the whereabouts of the two of you, and some of you are injured, so you can only hide for a while, please come with me." With that, the man in black walked in the direction of the mountain road.
"Thank you!" Although Ye Wan was curious about why this person wanted to help them get out of trouble, there was no other choice at the moment, so she had to help Mu Mingxue follow the man in black up the mountain road.
After a while, the three of them arrived at the mountainside, Mu Mingxue's breath was weak at this time, and the man in black tossed a weed on the ground at will, and a stone gate appeared at everyone's feet, and when the stone gate was opened, a staircase appeared in front of them. The man in black motioned for them to go in, and Ye Wan looked around, and then helped Mu Mingxue down the stone stairs.
When I walked into the underground stone chamber, I realized that there was a cave here. Inside, there are stone beds, stone tables, stone benches, water, food, candles, and it is clear that people once lived here.
"The knife in her back needs to be pulled out immediately, but after it is removed, it needs to stop the bleeding immediately." The man in black said, and then asked Ye Wan to lie on Mu Mingxue on the stone bed, ready to pull out the short knife.
The man in black tore the clothes around Mu Mingxue's knife with his hand, and said, "The girl is offended, and she will pull out the knife later to stop the bleeding." Mu Mingxue said: "It's okay." ”
"Stygian snow, I'm going to draw a knife, this knife is very deep, you" Before Ye Wan could finish speaking, Stygian Xue said weakly: "When you act so procrastinating, this little injury, in my opinion, is nothing, you just do it"
Ye Wan said "yes", then held the handle of the knife tightly, and quickly pulled the knife out of his back, only to see Mu Mingxue gritted his teeth slightly but did not say a word, as soon as the knife was taken out, he saw that the blood kept breaking out from the back, and the man in black saw this, and immediately took out the medicine bottle in his arms, brushed off the clothes behind Mu Mingxue, and sprinkled the medicine powder in the bottle, and it didn't take long for the blood at the wound to immediately coagulate, and it stopped bleeding.
"Now the bleeding has stopped, but it still needs to be bandaged." The man in black said to Mu Mingxue, "There is a difference between men and women, but for now, we must untie our clothes and bandage them, and ask the girl not to be surprised." ”
At this time, Mu Mingxue was sweating, her lips were white, her eyes were slightly closed, and she only nodded lightly with a little strength.
Ye Wan slowly sat up Mu Mingxue, facing her, he looked at Mu Mingxue with a bloodless face, his eyes closed slightly, he took a deep breath, untied Mu Mingxue's clothes, his eyes looked behind Mu Mingxue, did not wander, and then let Mu Mingxue lean slightly on his shoulder. Behind Mu Mingxue, the man in black looked directly into Ye Wan's eyes and handed Ye Wan a white cloth to bandage.
"Why do you want to help us?" After Ye Wan bandaged it, she raised her head and asked the man in black on the side, "Who are you?" ”
The man in black didn't answer, Mu Mingxue slowly raised her hand and grabbed the corner of Ye Wan's clothes, signaling him not to ask more. The man in black spoke, "I just saw that the road was uneven, if I want to harm you, why bother to help this girl heal, bothering to do so?" ”
Ye Wan saw that this person had no malicious intent, but as he himself said, there was no need for him to help Mu Mingxue heal his injuries and then harm them, so he picked up his sword and went outside the cave to find out if it was safe around the dark room of the cave, and said to the man in black: "Please also ask the knight to stay here for a while, and I will go back when I go." ”
Ye Wan turned around and walked out of the cave. Mu Mingxue was lying on the stone bed, her eyes slightly closed, and the man in black walked beside her, his eyes slowly swept over her face, her face was extremely white under the candlelight, and there were layers of sweat oozing from her forehead.
The man in black walked to the stone table and took a glass of water and sent it to Mu Mingxue's mouth, Mu Mingxue took a light breath, opened his eyes, and met the eyes of the man in black, "It's you." ”
The man in black was startled, and the water in his hand almost spilled. "Who is the girl talking about?"
"Although you speak in a different voice, but I recognize this flute sound, the first time I saw you that day, it was in the bamboo forest under the cloud peak, you are an ugly-looking old gentleman, and the second time is Luo Shaoxia at the lion taming meeting, I am not wrong, right?" Before the man in black could reply, Mu Mingxue said softly to herself: "Actually, I should have guessed that day by Suyuan Spring, you are the old gentleman of that day, I will never hear it wrong." ”
The man in black took off the mask on his face, his eyebrows and eyes were like stars, and his edges and corners were handsome, it was Luo Chen! Mu Mingxue looked at Luo Chen, who took off the mask, and smiled slightly, "Ho, fortunately, Luo Shaoxia didn't have a scar on his face like that day, otherwise I would have been shocked and hurt even more cough cough" Mu Mingxue took a heavy breath and stopped talking.
Luo Chen squatted down and whispered in Mu Mingxue's ear: "At this time, you need to have a good rest, don't bother too much, just listen to me." I knew that the two of you were the young leaders of Dongjing, the Purple Cloud Sword Mu Mingxue, and the Wind Breaking Sword Ye Wan. It's just that I don't know why you came to the Mansion, so I kept quiet and wanted to find out, until" Luo Chen didn't say the latter words, and changed his tone again, "In short, I knew that you were interested in entering the Chief's Mansion, so I secretly followed you at night. Luo Chen paused and lowered his voice.
"Although I don't know why the **** of Yunfeng is dressed up like that, I still thank you for doing your righteous."
Mu Mingxue's heart was hot, she didn't understand what kind of person would risk her identity to be exposed, or even risk her life like this, to save two people who had nothing to do with each other at all. She has been killing for no reason for too long, every time she wants to kill some irrelevant people, in the past she felt that these were all taken for granted, because this is an order, not to be thought about, not to be questioned, now in front of this person, what he did, made her puzzled, confused, but also made her, warm. "That's what you mean by doing what you want, right?" Mu Mingxue said with her hazy eyes slightly open, and there was a hint of softness in Luo Chen's eyes, as if she was happy.
At this point, there was the sound of the stone door opening, Luo Chen hurriedly put on a mask, stood up, and said in a low voice to Ye Wan, who walked in: "The water and food here should be enough for you for a few days." Rest here, I'll go first. Ye Wan nodded. When rubbing with the masked Luo Chen, Ye Wan looked back at Luo Chen's back walking away, and then sat down beside the stone bed, closing his eyes and resting.
Luo Chen walked out of the stone cave and covered a large pile of weeds at the stone gate, which seemed to others to be just a weedy road on the mountainside.
Luo Chen walked down the mountain quickly, thundering all the way, and it seemed that there was about to be a rainstorm. Not long after, he suddenly heard a sharp weapon passing through the wind behind his ears and attacking behind him, Luo Chen dodged one sideways, and took Xiao to block the rest, Luo Chen looked down and saw that it was a dart. Someone was following him, and he didn't know it, but he thought that this person's light work was very good.
Luo Chen shouted: "Why do you hurt people with secret arrows? Your Excellency, please come out. ”
I saw a woman in green yarn floating down from the tree, the woman's figure was soft, her toes fell to the ground, and her eyes stared straight at Luo Chen.
Su Qingwu? Luo Chen's eyes lit up, was it her? His hands tightened, his heart was not sure, and he asked tentatively, "Is it you?" The voice was calm as usual.
"I haven't seen you for ten years, and you still remember me." Su Qingwu smiled softly and slowly approached Luo Chen.
It's really Su Qingwu! Seeing Su Qingwu getting closer and closer, Luo Chen's heart was already surging, and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, but he still said lightly: "Ten years ago, you said goodbye, and today came unexpectedly. Do you just want to see me? ”
