Chapter 45: The Whereabouts of Nobuyuki
The next morning, the wind and the sun were beautiful, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and Zhiying woke up and looked at the sky, not knowing where he was for a while. She rubbed her eyes and turned her head, just opposite Ling Jun's eyes, the memories of last night came flooding back, she lowered her eyes, and her face was a little red.
Ling Jun looked at her in a daze, and the two woke up almost at the same time. He observed her every move, and saw that the beauty had just woken up, sleepy-eyed, shy, cowardly, and extremely lovable. And although Zhiying is shy, she has no intention of avoiding it, according to her thoughts, since both of them are interested, why bother to pretend again, she is not a person who dares not to be.
Just as the two of them were about to say something, He Ling suddenly appeared, interrupting their tenderness and sweetness. Ling Jun's face was a little bad, but he didn't say anything, his figure flickered, and he disappeared. And Zhiying also has a slight loss in his heart, but fortunately, the coming day is long, and he is not in a hurry.
The most embarrassing thing is He Ling. She saw the two of them sitting on the roof from afar, and wondered how they had gotten up so early, and only then did she realize that she had disturbed their good work, but she couldn't go back, so she had to say hello. Sure enough, they all stared at her with unkind faces, their eyes were like knives, and they were about to overshoot her. He Ling stroked her hair in a pretentious gesture, and she was full of amorous feelings, only to see her swaying to the eaves, throwing a wink at Zhiying, and said with a smile: "I really didn't come at the right time, you too, why don't you tell my sister in advance, it's a shame that I didn't come out last night, otherwise..."
Zhiying rubbed her arms, jumped off the roof, and landed next to He Ling, she patted He Ling's shoulder, made an effort gesture towards her, and then walked towards the room with brisk steps, leaving He Ling gritting his teeth in place.
Ling Jun hid in the corner, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile. He likes this kind of profit, dares to act, loves and hates clearly, and sometimes a little bad, which is really hard not to love. He thought, he has fallen into obsession, his heart is full of her, no longer thinking about the consequences, no longer caring about gains and losses, nothing else matters except her, what body is involuntary, what fate dictates, to hell with it, he likes her, only her! At this time, Ling Jun may not be clear, love can give birth to hope, but also make people crazy, the word "love" is originally like a person drinking water, cold and warm self-knowing, others can't persuade it, can't stop it.
Compared with the pleasure of holding Ying Lingjun and He Ling's laughter and scolding, Li Xin was obviously much more tormented. Ever since he was captured, he has been tied to the bed all day, only one meal a day, and even the toilet has someone waiting for him, so that he is ashamed and angry to death, and he is humiliated like this, and he is biased against the right master, and he is even more depressed, and he is depressed, and his depressed body is rapidly decaying, and he closes his eyes, and despair spreads in his heart.
Since he said goodbye to Tao Yao that day, he has been going back and forth between tracking and being tracked. It turned out that Tao Yao deceived him to leave that day for fear that Zhiying would encounter misfortune, and then he was attacked by unknown people, he escaped by luck, but he did not dare to expose his whereabouts, not only for fear of bringing trouble to Zhiying and the two, but also afraid that he would enter the trap again, so he evaporated in the world, so that no one could find him. At this moment, he was lying on the beam of Li Xin's house, and he was back to being a "gentleman on the beam". Originally, he followed all the way here and got lost, and saw the people on duty patrolling, and entered the house in a panic, and after he saw the owner of the house, he quietly jumped on the beam, and when the people on duty left, he hibernated here, and even Li Xin did not know his existence.
This place was very strange, and he secretly wondered, he was very surprised when he first saw Li Xin, and he didn't understand how he was here, shouldn't he be with He Ling? Where did He Ling go, did he encounter an accident or was he the same as Tao Yao, just to let them be left alone? However, this does not explain the purpose of this group. According to the idea of holding the festival, they have no grievances with this group, but they indiscriminately forced each other, arrested people, and neither interrogated nor killed, but imprisoned them in their rooms? He remembered the matter of the Li Mansion, but he denied this hypothesis. What Li Mansion needs to sacrifice is a boy and a girl, but the two men can't do it, they can't do it, and he is not as powerless as Li Xin, if he wants to catch him and kill him, ordinary people really can't do it, so it should be for other purposes, he is going to go to other rooms at night to investigate.
In the middle of the moon, Zhijie quietly left Li Xin's room, sneaked along the roof, and he explored several nearby rooms, but found nothing. How is this possible? Could it be that they are really coming for themselves and Li Xin? Just when they were at a loss, there was a sudden movement in a room, and a few people on duty quickly entered, and the movement disappeared in a moment. Zhijie saw the opportunity, took advantage of the gap between them and entered the house, gently uncovered a tile, a beam of light came out, and Zhijie looked at the scene in the house through the light: I saw a man who was not an inch tied to the bed by five flowers, and his mouth was still stuffed with strips of cloth, he was tall and powerful, even if he was imprisoned, he still kept struggling. The leader saw that he was making a lot of trouble, and brought a bowl of medicine, and guessed that it should be **. The man took off the strip of cloth from the strong man's mouth, and the strong man immediately scolded: "Ge Laozi, if you have a kind, give Lao Tzu a good time!"
"Strong man, I'm sorry, without the master's orders, I will forgive my fate. The man was not in a hurry, but it was the voice of a young woman.
Squatting on the roof with knots, you can only see their backs, all men's clothes, the leader is slender than the others, and it is actually a woman dressed as a man. After she finished speaking, she clamped the strong man's chin and poured a bowl of medicine down, the strong man looked powerful, but he couldn't move under the woman's hands, the medicine was quickly drunk, and the strong man lay on the bed and kept wheezing, but he couldn't make a sound anymore. After a few people finished their work, they calmly went out and continued to inspect, leaving only the strong man in the house, lingering like a dead fish.
Zhijie was shocked, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that such a cruel and inhumane thing would happen in the world. He didn't know how this strong man offended the master here, he was actually being abused like this, it was really worse than death, in comparison, he was really polite to Li Xin, I don't know if it was because of his frail and sickly body. He was glad that he still had the ability to escape, otherwise he couldn't imagine what would happen to them if he fell into their hands. He silently sneaked back to Li Xin's room and lay on the beam of the room without sleep all night. He thought he was going to tell Zhiying and Lingjun about what happened here, wondering if the strength of the three of them would be able to save Li Xin and the other suffering people.
When Zhiying opened the door and saw the people inside, she was so excited that she couldn't help herself.
"Senior Brother!" Zhiying was overjoyed, she hugged the abbot's neck tightly, her eyes were red, "Senior brother, where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time." ”
"It's a long story," Zhijie comforted, "Don't worry, senior brother has his own measure, and he won't put himself in danger, where is Lingjun?"
"Here it is. Zhiying turned around and saw that Lingjun was standing five steps away, she quickly let go of the holding knot and stood aside. Zhijie didn't pay attention to this detail, but said to Ling Jun: "I have the whereabouts of Xinzhi." ”
"Where is he?" Before Ling Jun could speak, a female voice interjected, delicate and charming, making people crisp to the bone.
"He Ling, you used to be here. Zhijie was a little surprised, he didn't expect He Ling to be with Zhiying and them.
"Tell me quickly, what's wrong with the letter!" He Ling saw that he was silent, and thought that something had happened.
Zhijie was surprised that He Ling cared so much about Li Xin, but he didn't have time to think about it, he told the matter back and forth, and everyone felt angry and puzzled after hearing it. What is the identity of the master, why did he commit such a poisonous act, whether it was for revenge or something else, it is really incomprehensible. After some deliberation, everyone decided that Ling Jun and Zhijie Zhengda would go to the people, while Zhiying and He Ling would be in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to move.
Everyone was ready to rescue Li Xin, only Li Xin himself didn't know that he was lying on the bed worse than dead, and found out how ridiculous his thoughts were before. Of course, he is good at patience, but after all, he is also flesh and blood, he has a lot of weaknesses of ordinary people, not to mention that this body can't withstand too much torture, when the will is still resisting, the body has surrendered, and he finally thought that death may also be a good relief. It's not the first time he thinks of death, as early as when he was in the Li Mansion, he thought more than once, he has neither a connection nor a concern, only three or two friends, and if he does too much injustice, he will kill himself, and one day, when they hear about his death, they will definitely avenge themselves. However, he was unwilling, it was the age of the flesh and blood, and even if he died, the enemy had to pay the price. So he became the eldest young master of the Li Mansion with peace of mind, and it was really like that after a long time, if he hadn't met Zhiying and his party, he might still have this identity until he died. But now, he doesn't want to compromise anymore, patience can certainly be exchanged for temporary stability, but in the end, it is the same way, life is in the hands of others, it will always be involuntarily, and he also thinks of He Ling, their misunderstanding has not been solved, he doesn't want to enter the next reincarnation with this regret, even if she is a monster, even if his life is just a white horse for her, but he still hopes that He Ling can remember him, those feelings that cannot be declared are quietly buried in the depths of his heart, do not need to be alarmed, and cannot be spoken.
There was movement outside the door, Li Xin closed his eyes, tried to relax his body, and pretended to be asleep. He only heard the "creak" of the door, and when someone entered the room, he held his breath and listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer.
