Chapter 37: Friend or Foe

After an hour of rushing, Chu Jun's face became worse and worse, and he gradually couldn't keep up with Lin Chen's footsteps, his vision began to flicker, his feet slipped and fell to the ground, and he fell into a coma. Lin Chen immediately put down Ye Yu and stepped forward, holding Chu Jun's pulse with one hand, which was already very weak. When he was helpless, he suddenly thought of something, untied the jade pendant on his waist and put it in his palm, and in the blink of an eye, the crack spread from the word "Lin" in the center to all sides, and finally cracked.

Lin Chen took out a transparent pill from the fragments, and just as he was about to let Chu Jun swallow it, his body suddenly froze. Night Feather's sword hand was steady, there was nothing in his dark eyes, and the blade behind his shoulder was so dangerous that the slightest movement could kill him.

Lin Chen maintained the action just now and quickly fed the pill into Chu Jun's mouth, and stood up regardless of it, he was betting on Ye Yu's sanity. He could only do this, and now he was no match for Night Feather.

"Yuanzan's courtyard in the mountains is only known to the three of us." Night Feather calmly stated the facts.

"Yes."

"I had an accident when I went out with you to collect medicine."

"Yes."

"The masked man knocked me unconscious, the man in the iron mask killed Yuan Zan and injured Chu Jun, and only you are fine."

The corners of Lin Chen's lips pulled coldly: "Yes, so you want to kill me?" He grabbed his sword and turned around to meet Ye Yu's gaze, for more than twenty years, he had never been so embarrassed as now: "It's too dangerous here, it's better to wait for me to send you and Chu Jun into Nanping City to meet the people of Qingheju, and it's not too late for you to kill me." ”

A gust of mountain wind blew, the branches and leaves of the trees shook and made a rattling sound, and when a green leaf fell on Night Feather's shoulder, she finally collected her sword. Lin Chen was still standing in place, slowly closing his eyes and opening them again, hiding the few invisible emotions in them, and bending down to pick up Chu Jun.

The location of the three people was very close to the official road into the city, and when the convoy of imperial court officials passed by, they took the opportunity to follow not far away. The people of Qingheju were ready to receive Ye Yu a few days earlier, and the post houses outside the city had all been replaced by Chu Jun's men, which was very safe.

Chu Jun was too seriously injured and was still delirious after taking the medicine Lin Chen gave him. Lang Zhong sighed and shook his head vigorously after passing the pulse, Ye Yu didn't say a word, drew his sword to his heart, and told him: "If you can't save it, you will die." ”

Lang Zhong was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he retreated again and again: "You can save it!" This son suffered serious internal injuries, but fortunately, he had taken an elixir to protect his heart, so I will prescribe a prescription! That's it! ”

This Lang Zhong is still a little capable, and Chu Jun's situation has stabilized after a few doses of medicine. Ye Yu always stood by the bed, until Chu Jun's frowning brows gradually relaxed, and then he fell on the chair like a loss of strength, and the punctured wound of the fingernails in his palm left mottled blood stains on the armrest.

"Where's Lin Chen?"

The person guarding the door immediately came in and replied when he heard this: "Young Master Lin Chen took a sword and went in the direction you came." ”

"Hmm."

Ye Yu stood up and pushed open the window, and the fire and smoke were no longer visible in the green mountains in the distance, and they were silent as usual.

Everything in the world will cover up the hustle and bustle with tranquility.

Lang Zhong went and returned, holding a prescription in his hand, and asked Ye Yu Lin Chen where he went. Ye Yu didn't know why, he looked at him with a puzzled face, and looked at him in a cold sweat: "I saw that boy coughing up blood before, and he should have been injured, so I ...... again."

"Fang Zi stays, you can go." Night Feather interrupted Lang Zhong and turned around, his gaze in the distance.

My father said that she had a delicate heart and could see through things or people that ordinary people couldn't see, which was a special feeling that didn't require training or guidance. But now, that particular feeling is out of order. Lin Chen seemed to have put on a veil for her with his own hands, and he himself could be free and easy, but she could never see it clearly.

It's dangerous.

"Someone."

"Lord."

Night Feather took out a special iron hidden weapon, aimed at the setting sun to cover the light in front of him, and the iron edge was plated with a layer of gold edge: "Take this, go and find out what's wrong with this thing." Perhaps, the person who used it was not her enemy, but a savior.

The spread of wildfires was quickly suppressed, and the ground was charred with black ashes, and the uncomfortable smoke and dust in the air were still drifting. Lin Chen covered his mouth and nose, brushed aside the plants that had withered and blackened by the fire, and the closer he got to Yuan Zan's courtyard, the suspicion in his mind deepened.

In the open space in the north of the courtyard, a person knelt on one knee and carved the words "God of War Yuanzan" on the wooden plaque with a sword.

"Why did you come back again?"

Lin Chen stood beside him, seeing that he was still covered in a black scarf, and there were a few deep lines in the corners of his eyes that were exposed: "You know her temper, if I don't come to clean up the aftermath, she will come in person." ”

The masked man glanced at Lin Chen: "You visit me?" ”

"Nope." Lin Chen looked into his eyes, "There's no need to be tempted. ”

The corners of the masked man's eyes furrowed: "Young Master Lin Chen is really extraordinary." ”

"The seniors praised it falsely. What I want to know is not who you are, but the Man in the Iron Mask. ”

"You and she don't need to worry about this, after today, I'm sure he won't show up easily, because his purpose may have been achieved."

"Perhaps?"

"It doesn't matter." The masked man stood up, handed the sword in his hand to Lin Chen, and his expression was a little solemn, "Give it back to her, she is bound to trust you a little more." ”

This sword Lin Chen recognized as Ye Yu's saber, and it seemed to have a great significance to her. The most important reason why he rushed back here was also for this sword. But now that the masked man was so relieved to hand over the things to him, he was a little puzzled.

The masked man saw his thoughts, and said, "I know far more about you than she does, and if it weren't for that, I'm afraid you wouldn't have had a chance to get close to her." ”

Lin Chen smiled, took the sword and said, "I will protect her well." ”

The masked man bowed his head to express his belief, and his tone softened a lot: "People in the rivers and lakes all say that although Lin Chen's son is young, he is good at martial arts, and he can still stand in front of me with a hard palm from the iron-masked man, which shows that the rumors are true." If you treat her sincerely, I will be relieved."

Lin Chen smiled and said nothing.

Imperial capital, Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Are all the people in Nanping in place?" Zhou Wenxuan sat on the main seat, his expression was dark and uncertain.

"It's all in place, just waiting for the target to appear."

"Remember, you can't kill her, and you can't let her know the trick. It's about your life and my family, and there can't be the slightest mistake! ”

"Yes."

Zhou Wenxuan played with the tea lid in his hand and opened the records of the Tai Hospital. His eyes quickly swept over Qian Lan's pulse, slowly hooking the corners of his lips. He called someone, took out a paper bag and handed it to him, and advised: "Increase the amount of medicine, how to do it seamlessly, you know." ”
