Outside, there were closed cells, and people huddled in the shadows, and in the aisles, there were prison guards every short distance, and outside her cell.

She was alone in her cell, which was pitch black, with no windows or light, only the dim lights flickering on the outer walls.

I don't know how long it took, but there were many footsteps and iron clashing sounds outside, and the sound was not violent, it was just the usual sound of walking.

Tian Mi leaned against the iron grille, sitting quietly on the ground, her legs curled, her hands on her knees, and her head buried deeply.

From an angle that was invisible to the outside, she raised her arm slightly, and quietly cast her gaze out from under the creaky nest.

If she was not mistaken, it must have been a changing of the guard in the cell, the original guards were gone, and a new one took over, and the time slipped by minute by minute, and the night was getting deeper and deeper, and the cell that had no cold-resistant substances and was cold and damp itself was even colder.

Tian Mi curled herself up in a ball, her head was a little dizzy from the cold, so she rubbed against the iron fence in pain, and after making an uncomfortable moan, she raised her head and closed her eyes, her brows were furrowed, and she didn't move.

It was at this moment that footsteps were heard in the hallway.

The pace of "Knock, Knock, Knock......" is steady and light, and it is constantly amplified in the dead night.

In the dim light, the tall shadow on the ground fluttered with the candle flame, and he straddled the big knife at his waist, and his cloak swaggered, like a ghost.

The ghostly shadow kept getting closer, past the bar, slowly devouring her body until it completely submerged her.

Then, the shadow drew his sword, and the sound of "poof-" was particularly piercing in the dead silence of the cell, but there were hundreds of people in the cell. Neither the officers nor the prisoners opened their mouths to make a sound.

But seeing him raise his broadsword in the air, aim it at the sleeping unconscious, and swing it down from the crack in the iron grate above her head—

The bright light pierced the night, stabbing people's eyes.

She stared intently at the knife light and narrowed her eyes in pain.

"Whew-" sounded. The sword cuts through flesh.

"Tick. Tick ...... "The voice was long and dignified, clear and striking, and the ground was dark red. It's clearly blood.

Not her blood.

Her body was stiff, she couldn't move, and she could only look through her armpits as the man stood behind her. She could only get a glimpse of the corner of his robe.

It's not an official uniform, it's a silk robe. It's very similar to the lines on the body of the dive adult, but it's snow-blue.

She frowned, and was a little nervous at this moment, but was quickly awakened by the man's fallen figure.

A pair of incredulous eyes looked straight at her. There was fear in his eyes, but more than that, there was consternation that didn't have time to react.

And until this time. The guards realized that something was wrong, and shouted, "Who is it? ”。 He drew his sword and rushed here.

However, it was too late, no matter how fast they were, they could not be faster than the arrows in the darkness.

The last to come first, the constant sound of "...... and " filled the prison, and when it stopped, there were no living prisoners in the corridor, only the corpse of Heng Chen.

The whole army was annihilated, and the other side did not spend a single soldier.

Xu Shitian Mi's perspective is too tricky, and what is facing her is a pair of unbelievable eyes, as well as the bright red blood that spreads under them.

The candles flickered around, and the wind passed through the dungeon, screaming like a ghost.

There were obviously many people in the cell, but not even one of them made the slightest sound, and they were alive, but they were not alive than dead, it was terrible.

Night, candles, blood, corpses...... It was too dazzling, and the corners of her eyes hurt, but she couldn't move her eyes, and she couldn't move at all.

She seemed to hear the sound of chains squeezing in her ears, she didn't think about it, she got up and pounced on the man, and said with difficulty: "Xuanheng......"

The voice was hoarse and choked.

Xuan Heng caught the figure that suddenly rushed and held it firmly in his arms, he felt her slightly trembling body, couldn't help but rub her cold cheeks with his cheeks, patted her back with his big palm, and said softly: "Good, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, I'm here ......"

He pressed her head against his chest and watched the aisle be cleaned before he removed his hand, lowered his head, and lifted her face.

However, there were no tears on her face, and there was not even the slightest superfluous expression, only a pair of clear eyes were a little stunned, looking at him hazy, and there was an indescribable strangeness in her eyes.

Finally, is it still coming?

He reached out and combed her scattered sideburns, hesitated slightly, and said lightly, "You saw it, didn't you?" I thought you were asleep......"

The small figure curled up in the iron grate, not moving for a long time, even when the sword was approaching, it did not move a bit.

It turned out that she was not really asleep, she was awake all the time, and she soberly chose the most dangerous position for herself, because she clearly knew that this was more conducive to the murder and the capture of the murderer.

Only he thought that she was asleep, she didn't know anything, and when she woke up, nothing happened.

In Xuan Heng's eyes, the apology became stronger and stronger, Tian Mi looked at the pity in his dark eyes, frowned slightly, originally wanted to say something, thought about it, and worded it more tactfully, looked at him and said: "Xuan Heng, you did the right thing, if you can't catch a big fish with such a fat bait as me, then I should settle this account with you." ”

Xuan Heng thought that he was still a delicate person, but looking at her at the moment, he couldn't speak, he smiled, and at this moment he was in the mood to joke and think, maybe he was really soft-hearted.

The smile is also a little weak, but the heart is warm.

In his panic, the girl suddenly whispered in his ear: "Before coming here tonight, Xiaochuan said that you are using me. ”

This sentence was like a shock, and Xuan Heng, who had always been strategizing, immediately panicked.

"Mi'er, I-" He wanted to explain very much, but found that he was not good at words today, and the girl did not give him a chance to explain.

The cold little hand covered his mouth, her big and bright eyes looked at him seriously, and her crisp voice said clearly: "And I sue him, even if he is used, it is better than useless, don't move-"

As soon as these words came out, he really didn't move. She looked at him with a small face, her eyes as smooth as amber, and continued: "But what I want to tell you is that it doesn't matter if you use it, you helped me, and I, too, am glad that I can help you. ”

The latter sentence. All of a sudden, it softened. Her clear eyes were also dyed with a smile, and at the same time. The little hand, which had been warm, was detached from his mouth.

Almost subconsciously, he reached out and grabbed the hand, his dark eyes fixed on her.

Tian Mi looked at her hand with some astonishment. When she met his eyes, she looked away uncomfortably—she wasn't afraid of the gaze. But Xuan Heng's current gaze, for some reason, she didn't dare to look at it directly, she always felt. It's different from usual.

Don't look at me, don't look at me...... However, it backfired. Not only did he keep looking at her, but he also stretched out his broad palm. Touching her face, her whole body suddenly shuddered, and she was extremely stiff.

In the silent space, the man chuckled and said, "Honey, how fortunate I am. ”

She was stunned again, and couldn't help but turn her eyes to look at him, her lips were half open, and her expression was a little stunned.

The corners of her pale red lips were slightly raised, and the dark eyes were burning with dark red candlelight, and he looked at her face close to Chi Qi, and looked at her face with long black hair and a big palm, delicate eyebrows on her face, clear and moist eyes, long curly eyelashes, small nose, and lips that were originally pink but were extremely pale at this time, and the scab on her lower lip - this was then, she was worried about him, and bitten.

The hand unconsciously moved over, the palm of the hand lightly supported her round jaw, and the thumb pressed lightly on the soft lip flap, slowly rubbing the Daojia.

A shudder suddenly hit the spine, Tian Mi stared at the face in front of her, and shouted violently: "Xuanheng, what are you doing!" ”

This sound was like thunder, Xuan Heng had to turn his head sideways to avoid it, he smiled helplessly, turned his head, and said softly: "It's bitten, why don't you take medicine?" It's not good to be seen. ”

Of course, she knew that the bite had been broken, and that she had already been seen, glared at him, and scolded, "Let go." ”

Xuan Heng understood, slowly let go of her cheeks, and waist, and saw her take a step back, so he also put his hands behind his back, but his fingers couldn't help but shake it, and there was still residual warmth.

It was quiet in the cell, and after that, she suddenly didn't know what to say, and for a while, a strange atmosphere was spreading.

The surroundings were quiet, and the breathing was amplified, Tian Mi suppressed the chest that was still undulating, and looked away subconsciously.

What's going on? I used to stay with Xuan Heng, and I was always at ease, and I didn't feel this way.

It must have been too frightened today. Tian Mi helped her forehead, squatted down with the iron grille in her hand, leaned quietly, and breathed steadily.

Time flowed quietly in the dark night, and the surroundings were quiet—why was it so quiet, as if there was no one?

Tian Mi opened her eyes and saw that the cell was pitch black, and there was nothing but herself. What about Xuan Heng? She couldn't help but shake to her feet.

"I'm here." A hand quickly put on her shoulder, Tian Mi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the voice, and she sat back again, feeling the temperature of the other person's back through the iron grate.

When did Xuan Heng go out? Why didn't he stay with her inside? Oh yes, he's such a clear person, he must have sensed her discomfort, so he didn't get too close to her, right?

Although it is also close now, it is separated by something, that is, by something......

Without the sense of urgency just now, she was indeed much more relaxed, and it was indeed a lot more relieved to feel that he was still there.

But let others accommodate themselves, this kind of thing, two lifetimes together, I don't want to do it, but today......

"Xuan Heng," Tian Mi smiled and wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but after calling someone's name, she was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Still Xuan Heng replied "um", and seeing that she was strangely silent, he chuckled and said, "But I want to ask what is going on?" ”

"Ah, oh, what's going on?" Tian Mi repeater repeated.

Xuan Heng said: "This matter is a long story. ”

Let's make a long story short - it's so suspenseful, because, what Xuan Heng said is: "Why don't you listen to me from the beginning?" ”

"From scratch?" Tian Mi frowned slightly, tilted her head slightly, and asked suspiciously, "That head?" ”

The people behind them also turned their faces in this direction, and although they couldn't see each other's faces, they didn't care.

His dark eyes were a little distant, and he said softly, "Since we met." ”

Sure enough, is it so far...... Tian Mi's eyes were half-hidden, and she calmed down, listening quietly.

The cool night was like water, and Xuan Heng's voice was as warm as water, and he said slowly: "It was indeed an accident to be chased and killed by Ruan Tiande and hide in your house. What was even more surprising was that I found that the stupid girl was not only very smart, but also well versed in the way of accounting. ”

Tian Mi smiled slightly and didn't bother.

Xuan Heng also smiled and continued: "Moreover, within a few days, you thought of using fighting calculations to make a living, so you met my subordinate, Lu Liang. ”

Tian Mi looked behind her in amazement, but after being stunned, she figured it out.

Yes, if she is a person who has nothing to do with it, why do you want to recommend her so hard, she remembers that Boss Zhang didn't want her at that time.

"But, at the time, you must have overlooked one detail." Feeling the stunned person behind him, Xuan Heng tightened his loose fingers, and continued in a steady voice: "You take out my paper ball from the neck stalk, and you should push it out, I dropped it from the window on the second floor, and then, the person sitting opposite me spoke to suppress the arrogant Wan Yousheng at that time. ”

"Yes, Master Qian......" Tian Mi never expected that at that time, it would be like this. But it makes sense.

A person who is so cold as Lord Qian, where is he like a chivalrous man who draws a sword to help when he sees injustice? He has a cold attitude towards everyone, and although he does the same to her, he has helped her many times.

She opened her mouth and said, "The Lin family's bidding banquet, is it also a favor that you asked him to help?" Steward Lin Qi seemed to take me too seriously, a newcomer who suddenly appeared. ”

"Yes, shopping malls compete, and some methods are not very bright." Xuan Heng admitted calmly, feeling her silence, he was also silent for a moment.

Or Tian Mi broke the silence and said, "So, behind all the actions of Lord Qian, there is your shadow?" ”

Master Qian has helped her too much, whether it is in Fuhua or Dezhuang.

No wonder when she saw Master Qian suspected of colluding with corrupt officials at the dock, he would comfort her like that. Was what he wanted to say at that time also himself?

I feel that it has changed because I don't know enough.

Although he felt a little difficult, he still opened his mouth and responded: "Yes." ”

He closed his eyes, rested his head on the iron grille, tensed his body, and slowly spoke: "It was I who pushed you to the forefront again and again, and borrowed your hand to get rid of the opponent." ”

After saying this, he could clearly hear his drum-like heartbeat, but he didn't suppress it, nor did he make any movements, he just tilted his head sideways, leaned his ears to listen, and listened to the reply of the person behind him. (To be continued)
