Follow the Qinhuai River and keep walking.

There were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road, and in the end, only Lu Heng and the three were left.

The night breeze is gentle, cool and pleasant.

On the surface of the river, a full moon is reflected. On the surface of the river, it was sprinkled with silver moonlight. The wind blows and sparkles. The breeze blows the willows, and the swaying willow branches rustle. The river gently kissed the stone embankment on the bank, making a sound of kneading waves.

Stand by the river, listen to the gentle sound of the water, and look up at the bright moon in the deep blue night sky.

Lu Heng took a deep breath, and said lightly to the river with a faint expression: "The moon rises in the sea, and the end of the world is at this time!" It's another Mid-Autumn Festival."

I remember that during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, I was still in that flowery foreign country, talking about the future direction with my friends. Now, I am in a dreamlike era, following people I have never thought of knowing, standing by the Qinhuai River and looking at the night sky.

Lu Heng, who looked up at the bright moon, sighed a little in his heart that the world was impermanent. More than a year of life is like a world away.

Liu Qingqing, who was beside him, quietly looked at the emptiness in his uncle's eyes, and wanted to go over and ask several times. I just hesitated for a moment, but finally didn't speak.

"The moon rises in the sea, and the end of the world is at this time!" Liu Qingqing silently recited these two sentences in her heart, and an indescribable look appeared in her beautiful eyes, quietly looking at Lu Heng who was standing by the river.

The Zhan guard behind him, like a sculpture, bathed in the cold moonlight, his expression was fierce, and his eyes were extremely cold.

Zhan Guard's heart was a little nervous at this time, because, just now, he smelled a trace of fish.

With many years of military service, he knows that this is human blood. And. He knew that the injured man had just been nearby. However, he was unable to determine the exact location of the man.

Zhan Huwei thought like electricity in his heart, and after a while, he stepped forward and whispered to Lu Heng: "Young Master Lu, it's late at night. Let's send you home! ”

When the prince was leaving, he personally instructed him to protect Lu Heng's safety and not to be careless. At this time, this person hidden in the shadows is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe. Zhan Escort was also very nervous.

However, this person should not be hostile.

Because, with this other party's hidden kung fu, Zhan Huwei also knew in his heart that the gap between himself and this person was not a little bit. If the other party suddenly attacked, Zhan Guard's heart really didn't have the confidence to stop it.

But even so. The guards decided to leave the place quickly.

The three of them walked towards their homes, and after leaving the river, the Zhan guards finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the strong smell of blood just now had disappeared.

It seems that the person should be passing by.

Seeing the relieved look of the Zhan guards, Lu Heng shook his head and smiled, and joked to him: "Brother Zhan's look is not the demeanor of the number one master in the green forest of Hebei Province back then!" ”

The Zhan guard scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "Lu Gongzi said that he was laughing, but he was really a little ...... just now."

At this point, he stopped. After all, the matter has passed, and to bring it up again at this time is nothing but to make people afraid.

However, he didn't say it, and Lu Heng knew it.

Lu Heng glanced back and saw that Liu Qingqing had already pushed open the courtyard door and walked in. He turned around, glanced at the Zhan Guards with a smile, and said in a casual tone, "Zhan Guards are talking about the smell of blood just now!" ”

"Hey,...... Yes? Zhan's guard laughed, but when he reacted, he was suddenly stunned.

"Childe, you, you also smelled this smell of blood just now?" Zhan's voice was extremely low, but he couldn't hide the surprise in his heart.

Lu Heng nodded, he wanted to talk about some modern medical knowledge and come to protect him. However, seeing the interest on the other party's face, it seems to have the style of a paparazzi. When Lu Heng said the words on his lips, he immediately changed the direction of the wind: "Yes, because I fainted blood!" So it smells! Tsk, I almost fainted just now and fell into the Qinhuai River, it's really hanging! ”

Zhan Guard was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Childe, you are really ......, hehe!" ”

】

Regarding Lu Heng's words, Zhan Escort naturally didn't believe it. He has been in the army for many years, so he has naturally seen the expressions of people who faint with blood. The kind of person whose face is pale and stiff in an instant is the real fainting blood.

And the one in front of him, with a natural expression, is like a person who has nothing to do, how can he faint blood.

However, as a subordinate of the prince, Zhan Guard also knows that there are some things that cannot be asked. So he just smiled and didn't ask why.

After that, after the two chatted at the door for a while, the Zhan guard left.

Because it was already midnight, and the families had already rested.

After talking to Liu Qingqing, Lu Heng returned to his room. Through the window, he saw that the lights in the west wing were extinguished, and then he blew out the oil lamp.

I don't know how long it took, Lu Heng, who was asleep, was woken up by a small sound.

He listened with bated breath, and sure enough, he heard a sound of uncoordinated footsteps coming from the roof. Lu Heng opened his eyes and was about to ask who it was, but suddenly heard that the person on the roof jumped into the courtyard and then leaned against his door.

Before Lu Heng got dressed and got up, he heard the door squeak and was pushed open.

There are thieves?

Lu Heng thought about it in his heart and got out of bed lightly. He bent down and picked up his shoes from the ground, and then felt that they were not very powerful, so he put them down and grabbed the small bench in his hands. Then, hide behind the door and prepare to give the little hairy thief a surprise attack.

Quietly holding my breath, listening to the sound of footsteps approaching,

At the moment when the other party approached the door panel, Lu Heng suddenly jumped out from behind the door.

Holding a small bench in his hand, he shouted: "Look at the move!" ”

Then, his hand froze in the air. Not only the hands, but even the whole person stood stiffly in place as if they had been pointed.

Because...... A big sword was pointing at him. And the blade of the sword, less than a centimeter from his chest.

Because the windows are relatively small, there is not a lot of moonlight that can shine in. At this point, the room was still dark. Except for this sword that shone with cold light, Lu Heng could only vaguely see a figure on the opposite side.

However, it is not clear that this person's face is visible.

Although Lu Heng was nervous to death, he couldn't show it.

Because, the blade of the sword is shaking slightly. This shows that the other party is now highly nervous, and once the person is very nervous, sometimes the action will get out of control. Once he makes any unfriendly sound or makes any unfriendly moves, Lu Heng believes that the other party will stab him at all.

My heart was racing like electricity, and after thinking for a moment. Lu Heng muttered to himself with a confused face: "Is it another auditory hallucination?" ”

Then, he also said with special certainty: "It must be an auditory hallucination!" ”

Then, with a serious turn, he walked towards the house.

After returning to the house, Lu Heng suppressed the tension in his heart, swooped to the bed, took off his clothes quickly, and got into the bed.

She shouldn't have broken in!

Hehe, because I don't have any clothes on! Although he couldn't see what this armed robbery guy looked like, Lu Heng could still be sure that he was a woman.

Because, that faint fragrance should be something that no man can have.

Hiding in the quilt, Lu Heng said to himself with a smile.

Hidden in the darkness, the assassin with his sword in hand stood stunned.

First, he didn't expect that he would run to the scholar's house. Second, he didn't expect that the other party would get through this crisis in this way.

While he was pondering, the door slammed shut.

Then he heard the sound of undressing from inside, and the assassin standing in the doorway hesitated for a long time, and finally put down his sword in discouragement, and he endured the pain, covered the wound on his shoulder, retreated to a corner, and crouched quietly.

The wounds on his body were many and deep. Even, the arrow on the shoulder has not been completely drawn. Previously, he had only broken the sword feather, but at this time, the arrow was embedded in the bone, and the pain was extremely severe.

The assassin gritted his teeth and pressed his hands against the wound, stopping the blood from seeping out.

Maybe it's because of too much blood loss, or maybe it's because of the huge physical exertion. At this time, a wave of tiredness hit my heart. The Assassin, dressed in a black night suit, kept telling himself not to fall asleep, because if he did, he would never wake up.

I said this to myself, but I still couldn't resist, and I was tired more and more often.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, the lights came on in the bedroom behind the door.

The Assassin suddenly came to his senses, and he nervously grabbed the sword he had thrown aside, and watched the door vigilantly like a lion hunting in the night.

After a while, the door creaked open, but it was only a gap.

Then, I saw a small wine jar rolling out of the crack in the door, and then other bundled strips of cloth rolled out one after another.

Finally, with a bang, he threw out a pair of scissors.

Assassin, didn't pick up these things. He was still on guard, watching the gap warily.

Then, after a ball of needle and thread was thrown. The crack in the door was finally closed.

"Lose too much blood and you'll die!" At the moment when the crack in the door was closed, a man's voice came from inside: "You should be able to use these things!" By the way, wine can be disinfected, and it doesn't hurt when drunk! ”

The Assassin remained silent, and only when he saw that the lights in the room had gone out and there was no movement, did he force himself to pick up the objects that had been left on the ground.

Drunk? Can it still heal the wound?

Listening to the voice in the room, the assassin wanted to laugh, but he didn't.

His veil was still hanging on his face, and in his autumn-like eyes, the killing machine gradually dissipated.

He gritted his teeth and endured the pain. He cut the clothes from the wound with scissors, then he closed his eyes, inserted his fingers into the wound, endured the sharp pain and touched the arrow, took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, grabbed the arrow, and pulled it out with force.

With a thud, the arrow was pulled out violently.

Suddenly, as if he had unloaded all the strength in his body, he collapsed and leaned against the wall.

Looking at the blood gushing out of his shoulder, he weakly picked up a small porcelain bottle that fell on his body.

After opening it, I sniffed it lightly, and a very strange smell of medicine pierced out.
