27. Confusion
That bloody and cruel scene could never be waved away from Yin Lijiao's mind, and she was in a daze all the way, completely out of state. Even if Lu Xun kept holding her like this, she didn't realize that something was wrong.
It wasn't until Lu Xun jumped in from the window of her boudoir with her, put her on the bed, sat down, and lit the candle in the past, that the sudden brightness in front of her made her come back to her senses.
Surprised, she immediately stood up. "It's not ......" she watched as he stopped talking abruptly, dumbfounded.
Originally, it was dark outside, and she couldn't see how clear he was. Now that she looked at it in the light, she could see how much blood was on his body. The blood on the side of his face had dried up, red and black, making him look a little hideous. The blood on his shoulder blades had spread to his chest, and the thick red could be clearly seen on the dark cloth.
In particular, his face was as pale as paper, and even his lips, which were ruddy and seductive, were already purple.
The bloody scene made her tremble at once, but she didn't pause to pull him up and walk towards the window, her tone eager. "I didn't let you send me home, let's go, let's go to the doctor, you're too dangerous."
But she couldn't pull him. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't shake him for half a point. Obviously, he was on the same page with her, and even if he was injured, he had huge explosiveness.
He just stood there and looked at her quietly, obviously weak, but extremely calm. It's like a wound and blood on his body, which are not there for him.
"You ......," she urged him back. Don't be willful, okay? Let's go to the doctor. In fact, although she was not injured, her face was also very pale, obviously frightened, but she endured it.
His eyes were full of distress, and he stared at her for a long time before he withdrew his gaze and opened his lips lightly. "You're scared, rest! I'm fine! As he spoke, he forcefully withdrew his hand and walked past her.
"Huh?" She hurried over and grabbed him again, this time deliberately holding it tightly to prevent him from pulling his hand back. She knew that she couldn't beat him, so she had to settle for the next best. "Why don't I just bandage your wounds here?" With his character of not taking his body seriously, God knows when he will find a doctor, and she can only try her best to help him deal with it first.
He turned to look at her, his right hand slowly moving to the wrist of the hand she was holding his left hand.
"Huh?" She met him with an inquiring gaze, then looked down at his right hand that had fallen on her wrist, and before she could react to what was going on, she felt that her whole arm was weak, and she couldn't help but let go of him.
"You won't!" He threw down three words and jumped out of the window with a brisk walk, then strode forward.
"Lu Xun!" She hurried over and leaned on the window and called him, but to no avail.
Somehow, the feeling of his back to her was not how weak he was, but inexplicably gave her a sense of gloom, which seemed to be filled with sadness and a trace of invisible determination.
Helpless, she had to give up entanglement with him and mutter. "I'm sorry! Thank you! ”
Then he squatted down along the wall weakly, hugged himself tightly, and the bloody and cruel scene came to his mind, with dead bodies and rivers of blood...... Mixed with worry about Lu Xun, there is also a trace of fear that is covered by various feelings, it is the fear of him.
In her memory, except for the panic she had when she first wore it two years ago. Since then, she has always been happy, living without heart and lungs, and has never encountered anything that really makes her unbearable.
But tonight, all kinds of unbearable feelings hit her, making it difficult for her to adapt. And someone was going to kill her. If it weren't for Lu Xun's precedence, would she have been killed?
Who was going to kill her?
She tapped her head with a headache.
After Lu Xun left, he returned to the place where he killed and kicked the two corpses, as if to check something, until she picked up the long knife on the ground and cut through the coat of one of them, he looked at the clothes on the person, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He hooked the corners of his mouth into a vicious, bloodthirsty smile.
Then he turned and walked away.
And Yin Lijiao squatted on the ground for a long time before she slowly stood up, and then her legs and feet were numb, and then she stabilized herself and walked towards the bed.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Yin's father shouted outside. "Ah Li, are you in there?"
Hearing the sound, she quickly patted her cheek to make her face look better, and replied. "Daddy, I'm here!" Then he pulled out a smile and ran over to open the door.
Yin Lijiao snorted haha. "Haha...... I just went out and broke the oil pot with a dog gnawing mud, and I didn't go after that. Probably because of the pain of the fall, I forgot to tell Aunt Xi for a while. Dad, you can speak for me, I want to go to bed first. ”
"Wrestling?" Father Yin frowned and circled around her worriedly. "Where did you fall?"
"No, no." She waved her hand. "Dad knows, I'm afraid of pain, in fact, it's nothing."
Father Yin nodded reassuringly. "Then eat and go to sleep! There is no rush for this time. ”
"I don't! I'm sleepy and I want to sleep first. With that, she pushed Yin's father out coquettishly, then closed the door and shouted. Good night, Dad. ”
Father Yin shook his head helplessly and had to leave.
Yin Lijiao in the door breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly went to the mirror to look at his face. Fortunately, it's not that ugly, and it seems that she has a good ability to digest horror images.
Thinking of this, she shook her head, deliberately driving those bloody images away from her mind.
However, she looked at her bed and knew that it must not be so easy to fall asleep tonight, so she turned around and opened the door and walked out. She felt that it would be more appropriate to go to the Shen Mansion tonight to sleep with Shen Yayan.
Fortunately, it's not too late, and the doors of the yamen and the prefect are not closed.
When she came to the door of Shen Yayan's boudoir, she leaned against the door and knocked lazily.
"Who!"
"I, Ah Li......"
"Ah Li?" Shen Yayan muttered suspiciously inside, and then opened the door. "Ah Li, you ......" Before he finished speaking, he was hugged by Yin Lijiao.
"Don't speak, my legs are weak, help me in."
Shen Yayan was worried when she heard this, and helped her in weirdly. She sniffed. "What smell of blood?"
Yin Lijiao was lying on the table, weak. "I'll talk about it later, you ask someone to get me some water to wash myself, and I'll sleep with you tonight."
"Hmm!"
Huainan Province.
Zhiluo and Xiangyi have been waiting for Lu Xun at the gate.
Xiang Yi paced back and forth worriedly, getting more and more eager, and he muttered. "Childe, where did you go? Why haven't you returned so late? I'm really anxious. ”
Zhiluo was still holding the sword, looking motionless, and he said lightly: "Childe is a man." "The implication is that there is no need to worry.
"Whew!" Xiang Yi stopped and looked at him disdainfully. "Don't think I don't know you look like you're paralyzed, but you're actually worried about death. Don't pretend, I want to scratch your face. ”
Hearing this, Zhiluo glanced at him, and quietly walked to the other side to stand still.
"Oops!" Xiang Yi quit. "You still hate me? Go, go, go...... Just go a little further. Hum! He turned his face away arrogantly, intending to continue pacing back and forth.
But just as he turned around, he raised his eyes and saw a figure walking slowly in front of him. Although he couldn't see each other's faces clearly in the night, his tall figure was no different from the son he had served since childhood.
He ran over in surprise. "Childe!"
Zhiluo turned around and looked at the sound when he heard it, but did not move.
Xiang Yi, who ran close to Lu Xun, instantly froze with a smile on his face, and he was shocked. "Childe, what are you ......" his voice trembled slightly, obviously frightened.
Feeling the strange fall, his eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly jumped over with light skills, and when he saw Lu Xun's appearance, he was also shocked. "Childe ......"
Lu Xun faintly crossed them and continued to walk towards the gate of Huainan Mansion, but after not taking a few steps, he closed his eyes and collapsed softly.
Fortunately, Xiang Yi fell fast enough to catch him immediately.
"Childe!"
As a result, the entire Huainan Mansion was busy.
