Chapter 423: Snowy Night Thorn

Chu Yi saw that Lu Qingzi was ready to sleep, so he didn't approach the bed, but sat at the table, looked at the flickering candle flame, and listened carefully to the movement outside.

Lu Qingzi closed his eyes, and while it was still warm in the room now, he urged himself to fall asleep quickly.

When the fire in this room is extinguished, it will be difficult to fall asleep.

After a while, the remaining half of the candle was burned, and only the burning wood was left in the house, illuminating the already dark room.

Chu Yi knew that in a few moments, the house would be completely plunged into darkness, and the night was still very long.

He slowly stood up and came to the bedside, and saw Lu Qingzi lying flat, obviously asleep, so he also took off his shoes and went to the bed.

Although Chu Yi had been in the same room with Lu Qingzi before, and even lay down, he was seriously injured at that time, and he had to be taken care of by Lu Qingzi.

But now it is very different, the two of them are intact, there is no wound on their bodies, but they are lying on a bed, I don't know how, Chu Yi always feels very awkward.

He turned over and turned his back to Lu Qingzi, but after closing his eyes, he still couldn't fall asleep like Lu Qingzi, so he simply opened his eyes.

After the last piece of wood burned, the last light of the house disappeared, and the entire wooden house fell into silence, and Chu Yi could even hear the sound of snowflakes falling outside.

The snow is getting heavier and heavier.

After staying in one position for a long time, Chu Yi's shoulders were a little numb, he turned over and lay down, put his arms behind his head, and looked at the top of his head with his eyes open, his heart was calm.

As the temperature in this room slowly dropped, only a few soup women in the quilt still had some temperature, because there was no brocade set, the temperature of the soup women dropped a little fast, Lu Qingzi involuntarily wrapped the quilt tightly and leaned towards Chu Yi's side.

Chu Yi glanced sideways at Lu Qingzi, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile, fortunately, there was a quilt in the middle, otherwise wouldn't he have to lean on him?

Chu Yi had just thought of this, when he suddenly heard a strange sound outside, it was not the sound of the wind, but the sound of human footsteps!

Moreover, it is not just one person who comes to this wooden house.

Because it has been snowing for so long, there has been a thick layer on the outside, and the unique sound of walking on the snow, Chu Yi will not hear it wrong.

At night, in such bad weather, someone would come to the foot of Lingxiao Mountain?

Chu Yi listened to the sound of 'creaking' and 'creaking' footsteps, slowly sat up and put on the shoes on the ground, and then came to the door of the house lightly, and carefully hid behind the door.

The footsteps stopped abruptly when they were still some distance from the door of the hut.

Seeming to be a little hesitant about this wooden house, Chu Yi's hand clenched the hilt of the sword, ready to draw the sword out of its sheath at any time.

"Are they really here?" Suddenly, a man's voice sounded outside, as if talking to himself, and as if to the people next to him.

"What I said above shouldn't be wrong." The other man said suddenly.

"She's the only one?" The man who spoke before said to the other with some uncertainty: "Isn't there someone around her to protect her?" ”

The other took a step forward and said, "It says that she is the only one now, and this is a good opportunity for us to make meritorious contributions." ”

"Then let's go!" The man's voice was a little louder, "The snow is getting heavier. ”

As they spoke, the two men walked towards the door of the hut.

Chu Yi turned his head and glanced at Lu Qingzi, who was still sleeping on the bed, and when the two men were about to arrive at the door of the wooden house, Chu Yi suddenly pushed the door open first.

The wind and snow poured into the house in an instant, and it was only a moment, and Chu Yi quickly closed the door of the house.

And Lu Qingzi on the bed just felt that some cold air was coming, and subconsciously covered himself with the quilt.

Outside the wooden house, the wind swept the snow and fell on the three people, Chu Yi had already pulled out the sword in his hand when he came out, and before one of them could react, he had already been blocked by Chu Yi's sword.

Bright red blood sprayed on the white snow, and flowers bloomed in an instant, and the other man didn't expect it to be so soon, and only himself was left.

I didn't expect that in this wooden house, which was supposed to be only Lu Qingzi alone, there was an extra man with superb martial arts.

"Say, Who sent you?" Chu Yi lowered his voice, looked at the man and asked.

The man gritted his teeth and struck at Chu Yi without saying a word.

Chu Yi saw that he didn't answer, so he simply stopped asking.

The man knew that he was not Chu Yi's opponent, and he wanted to find a gap and leave here, but who knew that this idea was actually seen through by Chu Yi, and he didn't give him a chance to escape at all.

After a few moves, the man also turned into a corpse and lay on the snow.

The faint moonlight fell on the two corpses through the clouds, and Chu Yi sneered and withdrew the long sword from its scabbard.

After examining the two men and finding nothing to represent their identities, he got up and went back to the house.

Maybe it was because there was some noise when the weapons struck just now, and when he entered the house again, Lu Qingzi opened his eyes in a trance and saw a man standing at the door, and he didn't reflect it for a while: "Who, who's there?" ”

"It's me, Chu Yi." There was even a smile on the corner of Chu Yi's mouth, the snow fell on his body, he reached out and patted the snow on his body, and then came to the bed again.

Lu Qingzi looked at Chu Yi with some confusion and asked, "You went out?" I just heard something strange. ”

Chu Yi didn't want to make her anxious, so he only said, "Really? I guess I woke you up when I went out! ”

Lu Qingzi nodded, and asked again: "It's so cold, what are you going out for?" ”

Chu Yi took off his shoes, turned his head to look at her with a smile in this night, and asked, "I drank more afternoon tea, what do you think I'm going to do?" ”

Lu Qingzi's face flushed, "It's nothing, go to sleep!" ”

Chu Yi smiled, lifted the quilt and went to bed.

Lu Qingzi still turned his back to him, and Chu Yi also turned his back and didn't look at Lu Qingzi anymore.

The two people were wearing cotton clothes just now, and after checking it, they didn't see anything that could reveal their identities, and it seemed that they should not be the same master as the people who came in the morning.

If it was the same master as the person in the morning, that person had already been killed by himself, and he couldn't go back to restore his life, even if he knew that Lu Qingzi still had someone else here, he wouldn't have sent another team of people that day.

Thinking of this, Chu Yi couldn't help but fall into silence, it seems that there are really a lot of people who want Lu Qingzi's life.
