Chapter 54: Fate hangs in the balance
The young man stepped forward and wanted to turn Ye Jinqing's body over to check it.
Ye Jinqing, who was lying on the ground, listened to the young man's approach, and held in his right hand an arrow that was half broken when he had just fallen.
When the young man got closer again, Ye Jinqing turned over suddenly, exerted all his strength, held the broken arrow in his hand, and stabbed the young man's neck with a resolute look.
She knew that she was small and had little strength, and if she plunged into the young man's chest or abdomen and missed the blow, then she would surely die.
Ye Jinqing was just staring at the young man's neck at the moment, there was nothing else in her eyes, she only knew that she wanted to live.
The young man curled the corners of his lips and smiled, as if he had expected Ye Jinqing's appearance. But when Ye Jinqing really turned around, the young man's smile froze at the corner of his mouth, and the whole person's expression seemed to be emptied.
The young man slowly stretched out his right hand and slowly poked it into Ye Jinqing's face.
The young man's outstretched right hand and Ye Jinqing's hands holding the broken arrow were staggered in mid-air, and the broken arrow in Ye Jinqing's hand still stabbed towards the young man's neck without stopping.
The sharp arrow that shone with a ghostly light broke through the flesh of the young man's neck, and the young man's expression was unmoved, still stubbornly stretched out his hand to Ye Jinqing's face, but instinctively, he tilted his head slightly to the side.
Ye Jinqing felt the stagnation of the arrow in her hand cutting through the flesh of the young man, looking at the blood beads brought out by the arrow all the way, is she killing someone?
A pair of slender hands with a little calluses immediately covered her eyes, and instead of being bloody, they fell into darkness.
Is this the end of it, Ye Jinqing thought in his heart, he might be dead, so it was dark in front of him.
At this moment, Ye Jinqing's heart was unusually quiet, not afraid, not panicked.
"Sister." The young man looked at Ye Jinqing, whose eyes were covered, and muttered softly.
The young man's eyes were very ethereal, revealing Ye Jinqing, and he seemed to see the beautiful woman in red and smiling.
It's been a long time since I've seen my sister, and my sister hasn't even come to his dream for a long time, but today I finally saw my sister again, and the young man's face had a soft look.
"Poof." Ye Jinqing felt something warm sprinkled on her face, and immediately, her eyes returned to light.
She saw that the young man's arrow was sticking into an arrow feather, and the arrow pierced the young man's shoulder, and Ye Jinqing could see that the cold arrow that came out of her body was pointing at her.
At this time, the young man was embarrassed, his right hand hung weakly to the side, and blood kept coming out of his neck, soaking his collar.
"Don't be afraid." The young man smiled and wiped the blood splashed on his face with his left hand for Ye Jinqing.
Obviously, the last moment, she was extremely jealous of him, but why did the young man's smile make her feel warm at this moment.
The sound of another arrow breaking the wind came, Ye Jinqing looked at the young man with his back to the arrow, and couldn't help but worry about the young man.
The young man picked up the sword in his left hand, and took a step back, and the flying arrow fell to the ground. The boy turned slowly, and saw a handsome man on the other side of the street, with a bow full of arrows pointed at him.
"Su Xuan." Ye Jinqing looked at the figure and suddenly called.
Over there, after hearing Ye Jinqing's voice, Su Xuan pulled the bow's hand and unconsciously exerted a little harder, damn it, it was really her.
"Master, your injury." Su Zhi looked at Su Xuan's back, and blood continued to flow out from the hideous knife edge.
Su Xuan's hand holding the bow did not shake at all, the bowstring was pulled like a full moon, and the arrow feathers on the string were ready to go.
The young man looked at Su Xuan with a smile, and he didn't dodge at all because of the bow and arrow pointed at him in Su Xuan's hand, but his body moved slightly, hiding Ye Jinqing's entire body behind him.
Ye Jinqing was blocked by the young man, and she couldn't see the invisible game between the two, she only noticed that the young man lowered his right hand, and the palm exposed outside the sleeve had become pale.
Ye Jinqing knew that this was due to excessive blood loss, and saw that the piece of clothing on the young man's back had been soaked with blood.
Su Xuan's hand that had been holding the arrow loosened, and the arrow came out of the string, straight to the young man's face. The boy just stood there smiling, not dodging or dodging.
Ye Jinqing heard the sound of the arrow breaking through the air, and saw the figure of the young man blocking in front of her, and couldn't help blurting out: "Be careful." ”
When the young man heard Ye Jinqing's exclamation, the smile on his face widened even more. In the boy's pupils, the shadow of the arrow grew bigger and bigger, and then with a snap, it disappeared from the boy's pupils.
Su Xuan's face sank like water, looking at the arrow feather that fell to the ground due to the weakness of the follow-up. Reaching out and poking into the quiver that Su Fold was carrying, he took out three arrows.
"Master." Su Zhi exclaimed.
The young man looked at the three arrows in Su Xuan's hand and said with a playful smile, "Su Xuan, are you going to fight with me?" Okay, let's see who kills the deer. ”
The sword in the young man's left hand was slowly raised, creating a half-arc of cold light.
Was Su Xuan injured, Ye Jinqing couldn't care about anything anymore, got up from the ground, and wanted to bypass the boy.
Su Xuan looked at Ye Jinqing, who suddenly ran out from behind the young man, and shook the hand that was about to draw the bow.
Only then did Ye Jinqing see clearly that Su Xuan was holding a simple bow against him. A gust of wind blew, bringing up the dust around them, a few dilapidated lanterns hanging on the side of the street swaying, and a few Teng Kuang scattered on the ground rolled down a few times, Su Xuan looked at Ye Jinqing motionlessly.
Ye Jinqing's figure running forward froze, and the bow in Su Xuan's hand collapsed even tighter.
Ye Jinqing turned her head and saw her right hand being held, her hand struggled, and the grip was a little looser.
At this time, Ye Jinqing noticed that the young man stretched out his right hand, and his left hand was still holding the sword tightly. No wonder that as soon as she struggled, the hand loosened a little, and with a little more effort, she could get rid of this boy who made her heart tremble.
There was a warm liquid flowing through his palm, Ye Jinqing finally raised his head and looked directly at the young man, and said in a low voice: "If you don't let go, your blood will run out, and you will die." ”
The boy slowly let go of his hand and watched as the small hand slipped out of his palm. Ye Jinqing ran towards Su Xuan, and when he was about to run to Su Xuan, Su Xuan's hand that had been tight hung down as if he had lost his strength, and blood dripped down Su Xuan's fingertips. "Su Xuan, your hands are bleeding." Ye Jinqing stepped forward and wanted to hold Su Xuan's hand to inspect it, but Su Xuan took Ye Jinqing with his other hand holding the longbow. Su Zhi looked at the empty street opposite, and the young man disappeared without knowing when, "Master, do you want me to chase after you?" "Let's go." Su Zhen looked at Ye Jinqing, who was held in his arms by his master, this Miss Ye family was able to escape from the hands of the young man who had just been in the hands of him safely, I don't know if the young man was taken by the master's archery, or if he deliberately let this Miss Ye family go. Several people walked to a remote corner, and Su Zhi stood at the outermost point, paying attention to the surroundings. Ye Jinqing poked his head out from Su Xuan's side, "Su Xuan, where are you injured, I brought a medicine bag." ”
Only then did Su Xuan notice the bamboo basket that Ye Jinqing had been carrying, and at this time, there were only three medicine bags lying alone in the bamboo basket. looked at it again, the clothes on Ye Jinqing's body were also dirty, and there were still one or two red marks on his face. I wanted to blame her for running around, but I was stuck in my throat and couldn't say anything. "I'm fine, I don't have to worry."
