Chapter 390: Killing Eight
Luo Lan sat in front of the mirror and stared blankly at herself in the mirror - her face was pale, her eyes were puffy, and she had nightmares all night. Yet when she woke up, she remembered nothing, only a vague gray, a gloomy gray that exuded the smell of death.
Luo Lan looked out the window, the night was still heavy and shrouded in the earth, and the night seemed to be particularly long.
Luo Lan walked out of the bedroom, her mouth was dry and she just wanted to drink a glass of water.
The silence of the Amber Manor could be heard even as a pin fell. Luo Lan suddenly felt an inexplicable fear that Amber Manor was suddenly so unfamiliar.
Luo Lan walked through the silent corridor and walked down the stairs with light steps. The abstract oil painting hanging on the staircase wall is bright red and dazzling. Luo Lan hurriedly turned his head not to look at the bright red color.
Luo Lan walked towards the restaurant, water! She needs a glass of water.
The dark dining room emitted a gloomy and cold atmosphere, and Luo Lan couldn't help but wrap the shawl on his body even tighter. Is it because the windows are not closed?
Luo Lan turned on the light, and the restaurant suddenly lit up.
"You?" Immediately, Luo Lan suddenly saw the people in the light, and almost jumped up in fright.
Li Moxiu sat at the dining table, and in front of him was a wine glass full of wine, and the liquid in the glass was bright red and red.
"Scaring you?" A smile appeared on Li Moxiu's face.
"Why don't you turn on the lights?" Luo Lan took a deep breath and said. Her heart was pounding right now.
"I love the dark. It's better to think about something calmly in the dark. Li Moxiu said simply.
"Yes." Luo Lan sat down and poured a glass of water and took a big sip. The cool liquid immediately quenched the thirst in her throat.
"Did you just come back?" Luo Lan asked.
"Yes. So I don't want to alarm anyone. I just want to go to bed after a glass of wine. Li Moxiu said.
"What about you? How not to sleep? Li Moxiu looked at Luo Lan.
"I ...... Woke up in the middle of the night and was a little thirsty so come get some water to drink......"
"We always happen to be together."
"yes. Luo Le also said the same, saying that there were too many coincidences between us. Luo Lan smiled and said, "It's really a coincidence." β
"It shows that there is a fate between us." Mo Xiu took a sip of wine.
Luo Lan's heart jumped, "Is it ......?"
"Luo Le will be very happy to know that you are back."
"What about you?"
"Me?" Luo Lan was stunned.
"I'm sorry I didn't get to race." Li Moxiu changed the topic, "How was your performance in the competition?" β
"I didn't fall behind, but the results weren't as good as last year." Luo Lan said.
"Why? You're the best woman I've ever seen. Li Moxiu said.
"It's just for women, isn't it?"
"If it wasn't for your horse last time, I'm sure I would have lost to you." Li Moxiu said with a chuckle.
"I also want to thank you." mentioned the last horse race with Li Moxiu, Luo Lan's face was hot.
"It's beautiful how shy you look." Li Moxiu looked at Luo Lan and said.
Luo Lan was stunned. When she looked at Li Moxiu's dark eyes staring at her. She felt her face heat even more.
"I'm going upstairs......" Luo Lan stood up. Li Moxiu's eyes staring deeply at her made her flustered.
Luo stood on the stairs with a pale face, like a ghost.
"Luo Le?" Luo Lan stopped in fright.
"Brother Mo Xiu just came back, and you went to have a tryst with him in the middle of the night." Luo Le's voice stiffened.
"I went to the restaurant for a drink and happened to meet him."
"Another coincidence?"
"How would I know he's coming back......" Luo Lan stopped, her heart moving. How did you know that Li Moxiu was back? β
"I'm waiting for Big Brother Mo Xiu to come back every day." Luo Le said.
"You ...... at night, too"
"Yes. I also waited for him at night. So I'll know as soon as he comes back. β
"Luo Le......" Luo Le's infatuation shocked Luo Lan.
"I'm stupid, am I?" A trace of misery appeared on Luo Le's face.
"He's in the restaurant right now. You can explain to him what you have in mind for him......"
"It didn't work. As long as you have zΓ i, I can't show my heart to Brother Mo Xiu at all. Luo Le looked at Luo Lan with hatred.
Her arm suddenly stretched out and grabbed Luo Lan's arm, and her fingernails were fiercely embedded in Luo Lan's flesh.
"What are you doing? Luo Le! Luo Lan was shocked.
Luo Le had a sinister smile on his face. She pushed Luo Lan down the stairs with all her might.
Luo Lan screamed, and his body rolled down the high stairs unbalanced.
Luo Lan felt her head hit the floor hard, and she saw a pair of black eyes for the last time before she fell unconscious.
The merfolk's wounded blood shadow vanished into the depths of the blood lake. The skeletons in the blood were gone.
The blood receded into the rocks like the ebb tide of the sea.
"Those skeletons in the blood water are nothing powerful." The flower demon said. Her vines smashed the skeletons to pieces.
"Those skeletons are all people who melted in the blood lake, so Mo Xiu has a steady stream of blood for him to cultivate his soul essence." The night sky said.
"If Mo Xiu wants to have a flesh and blood body, he must cultivate the soul essence." The night sky said.
"You used to be the patriarch of the ghost clan, have you also cultivated soul spirits?" The flower demon asked.
"I haven't cultivated my soul essence because I don't want to absorb human blood." The night sky said.
"What if Mo Xiu has no blood to draw?"
"Death! As long as he started cultivating the soul essence, he had to have a large blood supply, and if he didn't have blood, he could only face death. However, as long as he cultivates into a soul spirit, he will no longer need blood, and at that time, I am afraid that his strength will be unrivaled. The night sky paused, "Mo Xiu should be not far from success by now." β
Luo Lan opened her eyes, and the bright sunlight pierced her eyes.
There was a dull ache in her head.
"How are you feeling?" Luo Lan asked in a gentle voice. Then Luo Lan saw a pair of equally gentle eyes, it was Dr. Wen Yinglang.
"What's wrong with me?" Then Luo Lan saw her mother and Lin Shuang looking at her with concern at the bedside.
"You passed out." Mrs. Luo said.
"I passed out?" Luo Lan wanted to sit up, but Lin Shuang was busy supporting Luo Lan.
"Yes, Miss. When Young Master Li Moxiu came back, he happened to see you fainting at the bottom of the stairs. β
"How could I pass out under the stairs?" Luo Lan couldn't recall it at all.
"Doctor Wen, why did Luo Lan faint?" Mrs. Luo asked Wen Yinglang.
"It's not clear yet, there is nothing wrong with my body after I examined Luo Lan, but there is a slight shock injury to the brain. Did Miss Luo Lan get some head injuries? Wen Yinglang asked.
"Bumps?" Luo Lan shook his head, "I don't remember any injuries. β
Wen Yinglang frowned, "That's a little weird." But Miss Luo Lan is fine. β
"That's good, thank you, Dr. Moon." Mrs. Luo said.
"Miss Luo Lan has to rest well these days." Wen Yinglang finally instructed.
"Miss Luo Lan, where are you going?" Lin Shuang walked into the bedroom and saw Luo Lan getting out of bed and hurriedly stopped. "Dr. Wen Yinglang advises you to recuperate.
"I'm fine. I've been in bed for two days now, and I'm almost suffocating. Luo Lan said.
"We're all worried about your fainting? Just now, Young Master Li Moxiu still wanted me to ask about your condition? β
"Li Moxiu?"
"yes. Looks like he cares about you. You pass out at the bottom of the stairs and he carries you to your room. Lin Shuang said with a smile.
Luo Lan's face flushed, "I don't know how I suddenly fainted, I don't have any impression at all." Maybe it's because I always have nightmares and bad spirits for a while. β
"Miss, do you want Dr. Wen Yinglang to prescribe some calming medicine?" Lin Shuang said.
"No need. Probably because of the pressure. Luo Lan shook his head
"Are you still because of Mrs. Jianyì and you are with Young Master Li Moxiu?"
"No, it's because of Luo Le." Luo Lan was suddenly stunned when she said Luo Le's name, she seemed to have seen Luo Le before she passed out.
"Miss Luo Le?"
"She thinks I'm robbing Li Moxiu with her." Luo Lan sighed and said.
"Why does Miss Luo Le think that?" Lin Shuang said in surprise.
"I've explained it to her many times, but she just won't listen."
"Miss Luo Le really likes Young Master Li Moxiu. During the time that Young Master Li Moxiu was not in Amber Manor, she was reluctant to give up every day. Listening to Tong, Miss Luo Le's eyes were red and swollen almost every morning, as if she had cried all night. Lin Shuang said sympathetically.
"Now the only one who can help Luo Le is Li Moxiu. I wonder how he feels about Luo Le? Luo Lan said, "Maybe I should talk to Li Moxiu." β
"I think it's better for Miss Luo Lan not to talk about this matter with Young Master Li Moxiu at this time."
"Why?" Luo Lan asked in surprise. (To be continued...... οΌ
