(Ask for collection)

Wang Yuan naturally teamed up with Huang San to patrol within the range of one to four miles in the south, which was also the result of Wang Yuan's hope, he had always been a little worried that there would be blood stains in the place where the masked woman was found, and if others searched in this area, they would inevitably find these blood stains.

Wang Yuan searched along the front of the wall of the fang, and Huang San behind him followed without saying a word with a lantern, and when he was far away from the main street in the fang, Huang San suddenly said: "Erlang, I have something to ask you." ”

Wang Yuan looked back and saw that Huang San's face was a little dignified, as if he was preoccupied.

"What's wrong?" Wang Yuan said with a smile.

"Erlang, do you have something to hide from me?"

Wang Yuan chuckled in his heart, pretending not to care, and said, "What can I hide from you?" How do you think that? ”

Huang San stretched out his hand and pulled Wang Yuan to a low wall, shone a lantern on Wang Yuan's chest, and asked in a low voice, "Then tell me, what's the matter with this bloodstain on your body?" ”

Wang Yuan looked down and found that there was a black blood stain the size of a palm on the chest of his coat, and he was immediately startled, obviously the woman who picked up the woman just now was stained with blood, and remembered to wash his hands before going out, but he forgot to check his clothes.

"I found blood just now, didn't you see me deliberately standing in front of you to block you? I'm worried that someone else will find out. Jiro, what exactly did you do? ”

Wang Yuan secretly blamed himself for being too negligent, if he exposed the blood stains on his body in front of everyone just now, it would definitely cause great trouble, but fortunately, Huang San wittily covered it for himself. No wonder Huang San was dangling in front of him intentionally or unintentionally just now, it turned out to be because of this reason.

Wang Yuan hurriedly took off his coat and flipped it over and put it on, anyway, he kept it and washed it by himself, and no one would find out about it for a while. Huang San stood aside silently, looking at Wang Yuan silently, as if waiting for his explanation.

Wang Yuan didn't plan to tell Huang San the truth, he didn't want to involve Huang San, because he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse. After getting dressed, he also thought of countermeasures, so he beckoned to Huang San and said, "San Lang come with me." ”

Wang Yuan walked towards the place where the masked woman was found, and Huang San followed suspiciously. When he arrived at the side of the dwarf tree, Huang San immediately noticed something unusual, the branches and leaves of the dwarf bush were broken and scattered, and the wild grass around him also had traces of being trampled.

"Erlang, what's going on?" Huang San said in a low voice.

"San Lang, this is where the assassin infiltrated, and I happened to see the assassin here when I was on patrol earlier."

"Huh?" Huang San screamed in fright, and said in a trembling voice: "Then why didn't you report to Zhao Fangzheng just now?" ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't want to, I don't dare." When I made my rounds, I saw the fierce Assassin falling from the wall, and the Assassin was indeed wounded, but only on the skin, and before I could scream, he pointed his sword to the neck. The blood on my chest must have been left by the Assassin when he grabbed the clothes on my chest. ”

Huang San was shocked: "That...... The assassin wants to kill you? ”

Wang Yuan said in a low voice: "Originally, I thought I would die, but the assassin didn't kill me, but now that I think about it, he must be afraid that he will kill me and expose his heart." The Assassin remembered my appearance and warned me that if I dared to reveal his whereabouts, he would take my life. ”

Huang San turned his head to look around, and the assassin was close to the left, his throat rolled and he spitted and said hoarsely: "In other words, is the assassin really in our Yong'an Fang now?" ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said: "I don't know, I only know that after he let me go, he jumped up to the wall and went to the west along the top of the wall. ”

Huang San was stunned for a moment, and suddenly quickly started to pick up the broken branches and leaves on the ground, Wang Yuan frowned and said, "What is Erlang doing?" ”

Huang San said anxiously: "Hurry up and clean up the traces, and when someone finds the traces and asks, how can you and I explain?" Since Erlang has already concealed it, we should hide it to the end, since the assassin has met with Erlang, it can't be said anyway, otherwise it will be bad for Erlang. Since the Assassin has the ability to fly through walls, I don't think Jin Wuwei will be able to catch him. ”

Wang Yuan was a little moved, Huang San was actually an honest and obedient citizen, and he was not very bold, but at this moment, he did not hesitate to stand on his own position to hide it for himself, this is the real brother. Wang Yuan was going to find an opportunity to clean up the scene, so he immediately started to clean up, and the two of them sorted out the messy scene, and cleaned up all the blood stains on the ground and on the branches and leaves, so as to make this place look like there were no flaws, and then quietly left.

The self-inspection in Yong'an Fang lasted for more than an hour, causing every household to jump, but nothing was found. In the early hours of the morning, a fierce north wind arose, and the weather was getting colder and colder, and the farmers were cursing with their necks curled, and the search was mostly perfunctory. Zhao Fangzheng was actually hoping that this was the result, and immediately reported the news that there was no trace of assassins in Yong'an Fang to the city patrol envoy sitting on Qinghe Street, and the search in the square also came to an end.

Wang Yuan and Huang San insisted on patrolling until dawn, in fact, they spent most of their time wandering around the cleaned up site, in case anyone found clues there, but fortunately, no one meddled and searched along the wall of the workshop, but it was safe.

After opening the Nanfang Gate after dawn to hand over the errand, Huang San took Wang Yuan to breakfast, but Wang Yuan politely declined on the grounds that he was extremely tired and wanted to sleep. Wang Yuan was actually anxious to go back to see the masked assassin's injuries, and he didn't know if the man was dead or alive all night, and if he died in his own home, it would be a tricky matter.

In the early morning, the sky was low, and the north wind had stopped, and there was some inexplicable heat in the air, as if something was brewing. When Wang Yuan dragged his heavy footsteps into his yard, he suddenly felt that his face was cold and wet, and when he looked up, there were snowflakes fluttering in the sky.

Wang Yuan was secretly happy in his heart, and secretly prayed that the snow would fall as hard as possible, because what he was most worried about was that many traces of last night would not be erased due to panic and darkness. After dawn, once Wuhou enters the workshop to search, he will easily find loopholes. As long as this heavy snow falls, all traces will be covered, and you will not have to worry about it.

With such expectations, Wang Yuan deliberately stopped and stood in the courtyard for a short while, and saw that the snowflakes turned from flying feathers to goose feathers, so he was satisfied to unlock and enter the house.

The room was silent, Wang Yuan lit the oil lamp on the table, lifted the straw curtain and walked into the room, the room was dim and dark, and the nose was filled with a faint smell of blood, Wang Yuan came to the bed with the oil lamp, looked at the bed, and was suddenly dumbfounded.

The bedding on the bed was scattered, but it was empty, and the masked woman who had been placed on the bed was gone. Wang Yuanzheng was surprised, suddenly felt that the skin on his neck was cold, squinted his eyes, and a sword blade shining with cold light stretched out half of his neck, and then someone said coldly in his ear: "Don't move, otherwise I will cut off your dog's head." ”

Wang Yuan remained motionless, frowned, and said, "That's how you repay your life-saving benefactor?" ”

The one who put the sword on Wang Yuan's neck in the back was the masked assassin who had been rescued.

"Why am I here? Who are you and what is this place? ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "Do you have amnesia?" If you hadn't pleaded last night, how could I have saved you, a hunted assassin? Now you're asking me that. ”

The woman behind her was silent for a moment, as if recalling the situation of last night, and after a moment the woman whispered, "I must get out of here, please help me escape, and I will be grateful afterwards." ”

Wang Yuan sneered: "Are you begging me or threatening me?" I risked my life to save you, but you threatened me with a sword to my neck, which is really unreasonable. If you ask me, at least you have to look like you're begging. ”

The woman reprimanded in a low voice: "With a wave of my hand, you will be dead here, if you don't want to die, find a way to let me out, I must get out of here." ”

Wang Yuan's heart was on fire, he was frightened and saved this woman, but he didn't expect this woman to be so unreasonable, even if he was not grateful enough to promise himself, at least he should say thank you, be polite to himself, how can he shout and kill when he sees him, it is really inexplicable.

"This girl, have you heard the story of Mr. Dongguo and the wolf? If I knew that if you bit back, you should have died under the wall. If you want to go, go by yourself, I didn't tie you with a rope, you make me very unhappy, I won't help you, there is a kind of cutting a sword in my neck. ”

The woman said angrily: "You are not afraid of death? ”

Wang Yuan leaned over and put the oil lamp on the wooden cabinet next to the bed, and the woman pressed the blade of the sword in her hand and reprimanded, "Don't move." ”

Wang Yuan said angrily: "I want to move, what can you do with me?" Outside, there is a checkpoint on Wuhou Man's street, I want to see where you can escape? If you have the guts, do it. ”

The woman's wheezing was very loud, as if she was choking enough, Wang Yuan was also a little worried in his heart, he was afraid that the excitement was ruthless, if this crazy woman really cut it with a sword, it would be really bad.

However, to Wang Yuan's surprise, the woman was silent for a long time, and suddenly her voice turned soft: "If I can leave by myself, why do I want to force you?" This son, since you saved me, you will be a good person to the end, and you will help me get out of here. I was arrested by Jin Wuwei, and staying with you will affect you. ”

Wang Yuan sneered: "What's the use of saying such things now? I've already been affected when I got you back, so if you give me a sword or take it away, it won't scare me. ”

The sword on his neck stopped for a moment, moved to the side silently, Wang Yuan slowly turned around, and saw the woman holding her shoulder with one hand, holding the sword hanging by her side with the other, her face was white and frightening, leaning against the wall weakly and gasping for breath, and her body was trembling.

Wang Yuan shook his head and said, "You are seriously injured and have shed so much blood, if you don't want to die, you might as well go to bed and cover the bedding and lie down obediently." ”

The woman was stubborn and didn't move, Wang Yuan shook his head and walked outside, and the woman asked in surprise, "Why are you going?" ”

Wang Yuanyuan did not reply: "Go to the informant and call someone to arrest you, a female assassin." ”

The woman was startled and wanted to come over to stop her, but her body moved, and she suddenly fell to the ground with a thud and lay straight on the ground. Wang Yuan hurriedly went to check the situation, only to see that the woman's eyes were closed, her hands and feet were cold and piercing, her snort was rattling, and after a while, her cheeks were flushed, and when she touched her head, it turned out to be hot.

Wang Yuan hurriedly carried her to the bed and lay down, carefully examined the wound on her shoulder, and saw that the wound was blurred with flesh and blood, and the surrounding area was red, swollen and swollen, and there seemed to be signs of infection.

Wang Yuan suddenly remembered that when she came back last night, she had half a feather arrow stuck in her shoulder, but now the feather arrow was gone, only a hole in the flesh and blood, obviously the woman pulled out the arrow herself, and also moved the knife on the side of the wound, and couldn't help but be a little surprised by the fierceness of this woman.

Once the wound becomes infected and suppurated, the woman's life will be lost, and measures must be taken immediately. Wang Yuan acted immediately, went to the west wing, lit a stove to boil water, poured a bowl of half a jar of turbid wine that he had drunk a few days ago, and brought it into the room, tore the clothes around the wound, poured the wine on the wound to disinfect it, and then wrapped the wound tightly with a clean cloth.

The woman was in a semi-coma, and she only screamed a few times when she disinfected the wound, but she did not wake up.

After the water in the clay pot boiled, Wang Yuan went to bring in a large bowl of lightly salted boiling water, pried open the woman's closed mouth, and forcibly poured it in. After a while, layers of fine sweat oozed from the woman's forehead, the cold hands and feet also became slightly gentle, and the short breathing became steady, Wang Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least for now, it has stabilized, and there will be no worries about life for a while.

After a busy meal, Wang Yuan was also dizzy, but he still got up and went out, rushed to the shop of Aunt Wen on Cross Street and bought more than a dozen sesame cakes and came back, and it was already snowy outside, and the treetops on the ground and roof were already snow-white, and the workshop was also quiet, and it seemed that the Jinwu guards and horses had not entered the workshop to search, which made Wang Yuan feel a lot more relieved.

When he returned to the room, he ate two pieces of bread with hot water, Wang Yuan couldn't hold it anymore, so he moved the wood stove in the west wing to the bedroom, put a large pot of millet porridge in the bedroom, and slowly boiled it, spread a straw mat on the ground, and then fell asleep on the ground bunk.
