Chapter 82: The Truth Revealed
Ye Xiaoyu returned to Nanyuan in the dark, but she was not there for a day, but for some reason, Nanyuan became very strange tonight, especially the courtyard where she lived, perhaps, because Hong'er was not there and no one turned on the lights.
The room was empty and dark, Ye Xiaoyu pushed the door in, fumbled to find the table, lit the fire, and lit the oil lamp. At that moment, the firelight flickered, and the whole hall became bright. Looking up at the sky, I don't know if it's beauty or cruelty tonight, the sky is also dark, not to mention the moon, not even a little star.
After closing the door, Ye Xiaoyu seemed to smell a faint fragrance, very faint, if you don't smell it carefully, you can't feel the taste. Following the smell, I walked to the low table in the corner of the hall, and there was a small four-cornered square tripod on the low table, which had always been stored, but Ye Xiaoyu didn't like sandalwood, and he didn't have the financial resources to engage in those things, so the low table had been abandoned, and now, Ye Xiaoyu, who was closer, found that the faint smell came from the four-cornered square tripod.
In this way, Sunny has already come, and this fragrance is probably made by him, in order to prevent himself from being stunned again, and forming a double guarantee with the antidote he just drank.
A person was bored, so Ye Xiaoyu took out the handkerchief in the closet, and she almost embroidered it last night, and if she hurried to work, this batch could be sold in the capital again. Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoyu subconsciously touched the pocket of her ** lining, and the jade pendant was still quietly placed there, and she couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved. But he and the boy in white should have no chance, right? When she went to the capital again this time, Ye Xiaoyu didn't expect to meet him again.
After a while, the wind seemed to blow outside the window, and although the lampshade was covered, the flame of the oil lamp still swayed with the direction of the wind, as if it would be extinguished if the wind was a little stronger. Ye Xiaoyu got up, packed up some fabrics such as needlework, thread and handkerchiefs, put them in the cabinet, and locked them.
After doing this, go to the window and close it. But as soon as she sat down, the window was blown open by the wind again. Back and forth like this a few times, Ye Xiaoyu also felt a little annoyed, she clearly remembered that the latches on the windows were still good last night, why couldn't all the latches in this row of windows in the hall be plugged in today, as if someone had broken it on purpose. Ignoring it, he protected the oil lamp on the table with his hand and looked out of the windy window.
Suddenly, a strong wind struck, all the windows were blown open, the door was squeaked, the oil lamp on the table was blown over, fell to the ground, and the light went out. There was a sudden darkness all around. Ye Xiaoyu hid in the corner of the hall, her eyes fixed on the outside, it was estimated that that thing would soon appear by taking advantage of this windy weather......
After staying for a long time, her eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, Ye Xiaoyu saw white smoke slowly floating outside the window, and after a while, the white smoke had spread into the house, accompanied by a very good aroma, like a faint jasmine fragrance, which made people want to close their eyes and take a few more breaths.
Suddenly, there was a low chant in the courtyard, like a cry, and a white figure appeared in front of the window, with a disheveled hair and a pale face, but the lips that occupied almost the lower half of the face were black and red like blood, and the slender claws were making strange movements. The white smoke was filled, and in the darkness, Ye Xiaoyu seemed to see it smiling evilly at herself, and she couldn't help but shudder.
The white smoke became thicker and thicker, and in the blink of an eye, the face of that strange thing actually appeared in front of Ye Xiaoyu's eyes, it was really in front of his eyes, and it was almost close to Ye Xiaoyu's eyes. Instinctively wanted to escape, but his feet tripped over it, and the whole person fell to the ground.
"What the hell are you? I have no grievances with you, why are you looking for me? ”
Seeing that the claws of that thing were about to reach out to him, Ye Xiaoyu asked nervously, if he guessed wrong, would it be hanging?
The thing didn't answer, but showed that weird smile again, if that was a smile, the claws would be stretched out towards Ye Xiaoyu.
"Smack......
Ye Xiaoyu turned around unexpectedly, grabbed a stone with one hand, and slapped the thing on the head hard.
The thing was hit so the head that its whole body shook and it couldn't help but take a few steps back. In the dark, I don't know if it's my own illusion, Ye Xiaoyu seems to see it, and her eyes are full of surprise.
But it didn't ease up for a while, the thing seemed to be enraged, and frantically pounced on Ye Xiaoyu, Ye Xiaoyu just got up from the ground, and his neck was tightly pinched by it, and he couldn't move. The hand holding the stone tried to hit it with all his might, but when his neck was pinched like this, he couldn't use any force, and he couldn't even make a sound.
Ye Xiaoyu rolled her eyes when she was pinched, the whole person was lifted, and her feet began to leave the ground. With the last bit of strength, he threw the stone in his hand and lost consciousness......
In a daze, as if he saw Ling Yu breaking into the door, with a few movements, he knocked the thing to the ground, and at that moment, Ye Xiaoyu felt that his breathing was much easier, and he couldn't help but take a few more breaths of air. The surrounding smoke was filled, and the thing wanted to escape through the window, but Ling Yu was more quick than it, and grabbed its hind feet tightly, and with such a pull, the whole body of the white thing fell heavily on the window.
There were many people in the courtyard, Jiang Ping was also standing in the crowd, everyone was wearing masks, Ling Yu grabbed the hind foot of the thing and dragged it directly to the front of the crowd. After pouring a large basin of water on the head of the thing and wiping its face with rags, the crowd of onlookers was in an uproar. Because of that face, they couldn't be more familiar, it was the face of the master Liu Banxian......
There was a commotion in the courtyard, and the onlookers were so excited that they wanted to kill him to relieve their hatred, and later it seemed that Ling Yu proposed to send him to the official. After that, there was a burst of punching and kicking outside. Ye Xiaoyu sat on the ground, leaning her back against the pillar in the room, she felt that her consciousness was very clear, and she knew everything that was happening outside, but she suddenly felt a little tired, too lazy to open her eyes, too lazy to speak, so she wanted to sit quietly like this.
By the time Ye Xiaoyu woke up again, it was already daytime.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Hong'er busy in the house, propped up from the bed, and after walking out of the bedroom, I saw that the hall was very clean and bright, and there was no trace of a fight at all.
"Miss, you're awake......"
Hong'er saw Ye Xiaoyu standing there, and happily ran over to hug her.
"Hong'er, how long have I been asleep?"
Ye Xiaoyu asked Hong'er, because looking at the appearance of this house, it is so neat, everything should have been tidied up, and she must have been asleep for a long time, but I hope it will not be a month or two.
"Miss, you have slept for 3 days, Liu Langzhong has come to see you, and said that you are fine, but you are too tired, plus the previous slight poisoning, you will naturally wake up after enough rest. During this period, Ling Gongzi has come to see you......"
As soon as Ling Yu was mentioned, Hong'er's expression immediately became embarrassed.
It turned out that he had been in a coma for 3 days, maybe it was because he was troubled by Liu Banxian's incident some time ago, Ye Xiaoyu's head has been running at high speed without stopping, coupled with the fight that night, the body of his body is estimated to have been overdrawn a long time ago, Ye Xiaoyu remembers very clearly that on the night he caught Liu Banxian, when he was in a coma, he was conscious, but he felt too tired and didn't bother to open his eyes. At that time, I was very groggy and comfortable, but now I think about it, I am very afraid, if I don't wake up from this sleep, what should I do? Luckily, I was only in a coma for 3 days.
