Chapter 32: The Hand of the Son
"Don't you feel panicked at all when things have come to this point?" Ruqing furrowed her brows, staring at Mo Simin not far away without blinking, the two of them were in the same situation at that time, their hands were tied behind their backs, and they were locked in the dim firewood room by unknown people.
Mo Simin leaned against the wall silently, his expression was very unnatural: "It's not to blame you, if you didn't deliberately make me angry, why did you end up in this step!" ”
Ruqing raised her eyebrows, at this time when the enemy was in danger of being dark and bright, she still felt that Mo Simin's angry appearance was very cute.
"What I said at the time was obviously the truth, it was you who had a ghost in your heart, and you were too small." Ruqing grinned.
The appearance of her hippie smile successfully aroused Mo Simin's anger, and the latter raised her eyebrows, and was about to refute her words, but saw the smile on Ruqing's face dissipate into a cloud of smoke, replaced by a serious expression: "Okay, I won't tease you, it's more important to analyze the situation now." ”
Things have to start when they left the Lu family, when Ruqing bumped into Mo Simin at the Lu family, in the spirit of being bored and wanting to have some fun, she teased Mo Simin in front of Lu Li, but she used too much force and almost made people cry.
As soon as Mo Simin turned around and ran out, Ruqing followed.
At first, Mo Simin was very angry and asked her to get out of here, but she didn't listen, and still followed unhurriedly not far behind her, until they walked into the woods one after the other, and Ruqing's steps suddenly accelerated.
Mo Simin's eyes were full of tears, and his whole person was about to explode: "How long do you still pester me, can you stay away from me!" ”
Ruqing didn't hear it, and her steps quickened more and more: "If I leave now, you will definitely regret it." ”
Why is she so sure, if she leaves, it will be too late for her to be happy!
Mo Simin puffed up and let her leave, and after a moment of slight pause, Ruqing actually caught up, and even hugged her into her arms.
"What are you doing, let me go!" Mo Simin was taken aback, even though she knew in her heart that Ruqing would not do anything to herself, she was still a little uncomfortable being hugged by such a big person.
She wanted to push Ruqing away, but she didn't have enough strength to push at all, so she let her hold herself tightly: "What do you want to do?" ”
"Shhhh Ruqing lowered her voice and said, "They've been following us for a while. ”
No wonder Ruqing said just now that she would regret leaving herself, it turned out that someone was secretly following her behind her!
Mo Simin gave up struggling, and her heart suddenly rose.
They stood still, pricking up their ears to listen to the movements around them, and in addition to the sound of the wind and leaves, there were also slight footsteps and conversations.
"Who are these two people who are our targets?" Someone asked in a low voice.
"I don't know who the target is, just grab the two of them, be careful not to hurt them when you go, otherwise the people above will blame you, and you and I won't be able to eat and walk around!"
With a sound of action, eight or nine people dressed in black poured out from all directions, each of them holding a long sword in their hands, obviously coming at them to be prepared, Mo Simin and Ruqing glanced at each other, and their hearts began to become heavy.
Why are they coming, and against whom?
Before he had time to think about it, the man in black had already rushed forward with a knife.
Mo Simin pulled out the soft whip on his waist, and used the whip technique in one hand to be superb, flexible like a snake with divine sense, and Ruqing on the side was also very relaxed, at first the two of them firmly had the upper hand, but soon bowed down.
After all, two fists are hard to beat four hands, no matter how powerful they are, they are just ordinary people with only one pair of hands.
Compared with Mo Simin, Ruqing, who has been dressed as a man for a long time, is more righteous, she grabbed a long sword to block the man in black, and asked Mo Simin to leave quickly in a hoarse voice.
Mo Simin panicked and said, "If I leave, what will you do?" ”
If she stayed, both of them would fold here, and if she left, the loss might be smaller.
Ruqing turned her head and smiled at her: "Of course I will stay here and wait for you to bring the rescuers back." ”
Her smile gave Mo Simin the illusion that she could hold on, Mo Simin gritted her teeth, and thought that Lu Li was not far from here, so she told her: "You wait for my news!" ”
She wanted to go to Lu's house to find Lu Li's help, but unfortunately the situation was too urgent, and the timing no longer allowed her to do so.
Just as Mo Simin raised her feet and ran in the direction of the Lu family, a man in black rushed behind her vigorously, because the time was too fast, things were too sudden, Ruqing didn't even have time to remind her, she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Ruqing didn't want to think about it, and kicked away the person who stunned Mo Simin and protected her behind her: "If you dare-"
Before she could finish her words, there was another slap behind her, she snorted lightly, and fainted, and when she woke up again, she found herself in someone else's firewood room.
"Could it be that your enemy wants to take revenge on you and accidentally implicate me?" Mo Simin secretly guessed.
Ruqing smiled dumbly, and shook her head again and again to say that their mountain bandits' enemies would not do this kind of thing at all, and when facing the enemy, their usual practice was to stab the enemy with a knife, and the white knife went in and the red knife came out, and life and death depended on their lives, rather than caring about the life safety of the enemy.
Ruqing looked at Mo Simin and speculated, "I think they're here for you." ”
At the same time, on the other side, An Xiabai was busy with Su's father's death, if it weren't for Lu Li's distress about her body and letting her go home to rest, he felt that she could kneel on the mourning hall all day.
"Why should you bother, if your father-in-law is still there, he will definitely feel distressed when he sees that you don't take your body seriously." Lu Li said with a sigh.
An Xiabai's whole person was depressed, as if walking in the world was just a shell.
"Yes, if my father was still alive, he would definitely feel sorry for me." She took Lu Li's hand, wiped her tears with his sleeve, and turned into the kitchen.
At this time, it's time to eat, it's time for her to cook, just like her mother said before her death, the first thing she should do is to eat on time, she has to take care of her body.
Shortly after she woke up yesterday, Shen Ya personally came to Lu's house to inquire about the case, she told everything she knew, and then asked Shen Ya, how many crimes can the shopkeeper Ge convict at most.
Shen Ya looked at her face, and said with a solemn expression that the facts of the crime were bad, and he would focus on the trial.
The implication is that he will definitely be able to give her and Father Su under Jiuquan an explanation.
With Shen Ya's promise, revenge is definitely not far away, and An Xiabai feels that it is time for him to take good care of himself.
She went to the kitchen, found a few ingredients, and put them on the cutting board one by one to pick up a knife to cut, but the kitchen knife was snatched by someone.
It was Lu Li who came, and she was too worried about An Xiabai's body.
Lu Li clenched the kitchen knife and said thoughtfully: "You are not feeling well, why don't you cook today's meal by me." ”
An Xiabai shook his head and said directly that the food he cooked was not delicious, at least not as delicious as the one she made herself, Lu Li had no choice but to retreat and help her in the kitchen.
He helped chop and wash the vegetables, An Xiabai was in charge of frying, after a lot of work, the meal was finally served out of the pot, the aroma was overflowing, An Xiabai was hungry for too long and a little greedy, so he sandwiched a chopstick.
It's still the same taste, just like my mother made when she was alive.
Chewing and chewing, the tip of his nose was slightly sore, and tears filled his eyes.
Lu Li felt distressed, hugged the person in his arms from behind, and said softly: "We have been getting along for a while now, and I always feel that you seem to have something to hide from me, do you?" ”
An Xia Bai didn't speak for a long time, but Lu Li could feel her body trembling, and she should have shed tears.
He wanted to turn her around in distress, but she threw herself into his arms and refused to raise her head: "Don't look." ”
While Lu Li was distressed, he felt even more funny: "Okay, if you don't let me watch it, I won't watch it." ”
An Xiabai cried for a long time, until her voice was almost hoarse, and she finally replied to Lu Li's words: "I do have something to hide from you, you have a long story to say, but since you want to hear it, I will tell you." ”
"Okay, let's take our time." Lu Li patted her on the back gently, and had enough patience to wait for her to tell her story slowly.
"I'm actually not An Xiabai in the real sense, my real name is Su Ling, and after I died unexpectedly, I borrowed the corpse to return my soul to An Xiabai's body." When An Xiabai said this, his tone was so calm that he seemed to be telling someone else's story, "To be more precise, I should be the person after An Xiabai and Su Ling merged, I have the memory of An Xiabai and Su Ling." ”
surnamed Su, so isn't she related to Su's father?
Lu Li asked suspiciously, "Then the father-in-law is really your father?" ”
An Xiabai nodded, and said without hesitation: "He only has one daughter, and I have been thinking about him since I was reborn, so I deliberately approached him to support him in his old age, but I never expected to cause him to be killed." ”
The self-blame and sadness in her heart were unimaginable to Lu Li, and he didn't know how to persuade him, so he sighed and increased the strength of his hand so that she could feel her presence.
An Xiabai raised her head, her tearful eyes reflected his figure, and she asked suspiciously, "Don't you feel that your reaction is a little cold?" ”
"What should I do?" Lu Li smiled and wiped the undried tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.
"At the very least, you should be shocked, or ask me where your original wife went after I was reborn, and I don't even ask like this, I always feel that something is not right." An Xia Bai said truthfully.
Lu Li disagreed: "The relationship between me and her is not good, and marrying her is not what I was willing to do, I am too late to be happy when you are reborn, where can I have time to care about her." ”
As he spoke, he held An Xiabai's hand tightly, and solemnly promised word by word: "I promise you that no matter what happens in the future, I will hold your hand and accompany you." ”
