Volume 3 The Ruins of the Shadow Chapter 141 No Return

Consciousness slowly returned, her eyelids were heavy, and her body was numb, Ji Ruyu lay quietly on a soft place, feeling the movement around her.

The sun poured into the courtyard, an old man in cloth sat in the gazebo with a smile, holding a bag of peeled corn kernels and chewing constantly, looking at the back of the white shirt boy in front of him, facing him upside down, chattering while eating: "Xiao Yu, can you still hold on, you have been upside down for three quarters of an hour, don't stop and rest for a while." ”

"Anyway, if your master is not here, I will definitely not tell the truth."

The little boy in a white coat and shorts had his feet facing the sky, and the sweat on his face slid down his sideburns and fell to the ground, he gasped lowly, and the sweat reflected in the sun, reflecting a dazzling luster.

"Xiao Yu, don't you really matter?" The old man in cloth held his cheeks, leaned against the pillar, looked at him with squinted eyes, and said with a smile: "Do you want me to come and help you?" ”

Hearing this, the white-clad boy was excited, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Guo Ye, I beg you, let me go, there is only a quarter of an hour left, don't embarrass me." ”

"Okay, okay, it's not fun." The old man in cloth was chewing corn kernels a little bored, his eyes moved to the inner room facing the child, but he suddenly found that the door of the room was actually hidden, and it was the place where the old man surnamed Huo rested on weekdays, and his eyes lit up.

"Xiao Yu, why didn't your master lock the door when he went out today?" The old man in cloth asked curiously.

"Oh, when the master came back last night, he brought a person who passed out, and let me take care of it before going out today." The white-coated boy replied honestly while panting.

"Bring back someone?" However, as soon as the old man in cloth heard this, his expression suddenly perked, and he walked out of the pavilion and walked slowly towards the back room.

"Is it a man or a woman? It's the first time I've seen anyone other than you here in Brother Huo, no, I have to get to know him. With that, he walked around the upside-down body of the white-clad boy and walked towards the back room.

Hearing the footsteps of the old man in cloth, the white-clad boy was stunned, supporting the ground with his hands, and Yu Guang watched him walk past him, and he was anxious: "Hey, Guo Ye can't do it, the old man ordered not to let outsiders in!" ”

"Oh, I'm so familiar with Brother Huo, why don't you treat me as an outsider?"

As he spoke, the old man in cloth gently pushed open the hidden wooden door.

The white-coated boy was about to cry, he finally persevered for three quarters of an hour under the interference of the old man, and he was about to succeed, and this time his previous efforts were wasted.

Gritting his teeth, Xiao Tong's elbows bent slightly, his palms slapped suddenly, and the whole person flipped in the air, and his body stood firmly on the ground. He looked at the back of the old man who had already walked into the room, and hurriedly ran in and grabbed the old man in cloth by the shoulder.

"Guo Ye, ...... you" He subconsciously looked into the room, only to see that in the side room, a woman was lying quietly on the bed, her eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she was about to wake up.

"This girl is so handsome." The old man in cloth looked at the woman on the bed in a daze, and muttered to himself.

"Xiao Yu, who is this Brother Huo, is it his daughter?" The old man looked back at Xiao Tong and asked suspiciously, before Xiao Tong could reply, he shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it, Brother Huo doesn't look like someone who can have such a good-looking girl." ”

The white-coated boy grinned helplessly and said, "Master Guo, my lord is not married, where is the daughter?" ”

"Hey, what do you know about a child, why can't you have a daughter if you're not married, now the world is very chaotic, let me tell you......" The old man in cloth glared, and immediately chattered, the white-coated boy with a buzzing brain wanted to throw his ears away immediately, and he was about to drag the old man out of the house, but he heard a slight moan from the side bedroom.

Ji Ruyu opened her eyes tiredly, her whole body was numb and sore, and there was a faint tingling sensation in her lower back, she struggled to get up, looking at the surrounding scene, unfamiliar rooms and furnishings, mostly wooden, looking very quaint, with a sense of history.

"You...... You're awake?! Suddenly hearing a childish voice, Ji Ruyu slowly turned her head, and saw an old man and a young man standing at the door, the little boy was holding the old man's arm, and was looking at her in surprise and said.

"This is ......," Ji Ruyu asked softly.

"Oh, this is where my lord lives, my lord's surname is Huo, and he brought you back early this morning." The white-coated boy said honestly, his dark eyes were clean and clear, without a trace of impurities.

"Yes......" Ji Ruyu smiled slightly bitterly, she gently covered her head, recalling what happened before.

In the dark rain, she was attacked from behind by Xue Hucheng and was seriously injured. At that time, a strange sound suddenly came from the surroundings, with a very obvious hostility, as if it had been premeditated, and just when she wanted to arm the Yuluo Hongchen armor again, her body was suddenly hit by something, and then she lost consciousness.

Now it looks like she was saved by someone......

But what about the people of the Communist? Why didn't Lian Qingping bring her back, and who is the master surnamed Huo?

"Sister, you are seriously injured, rest in peace first, the master said, he will be back soon." The boy said.

"Hurt?" Before Ji Ruyu could speak, the old man who was dragged by Xiao Tong was slightly stunned, broke free of Xiao Tong's hand, looked at Ji Ruyu and asked, "Girl, what injuries did you suffer, are you seriously injured?" Do you need to ask the old man to come home and get you some medicine? ”

The palm of his hand stroked the wound on the side waist that had stopped bleeding, as if it had been medicated, Ji Ruyu shook his head gently, looked at the old man and said, "Thank you for your kindness, my injury doesn't matter anymore, just rest for a while." ”

"By the way, where's my bag?"

Xiao Tong patted his head and said, "Wait a minute." ”

Immediately, he ran towards the house on the other side, Ji Ruyu slowly stepped on the ground, her legs were still a little weak, but she could barely walk.

"Girl, since your body is not good yet, don't walk around, just lie on the bed first." The old man in cloth said with some concern.

"Well, I know, but I have to get in touch with someone right now." Ji Ruyu held on to the wall, panting lightly, and said.

After a while, Xiao Tong ran back, holding Ji Ruyu's satchel in his hand, handed it to her, and said, "Sister, look at it, there is nothing missing." ”

Ji Ruyu took the satchel, stretched her palm in, touched the soft skirt armor, and relaxed slightly, fortunately, the rain fell and the red dust was not lost.

She took out her communicator from it, pressed it for a long time, and found that it had long been unable to start, so she could only sigh, look at the little boy in front of her, and say, "That...... Is there a redundant communicator here? ”

"Communicator ......" Xiao Tong scratched his head and said helplessly: "I don't have a communicator, the master said that he was afraid that I would be distracted and not practice well, so he didn't buy me a communicator." ”

"I've got it here, for you." Suddenly, the old man in cloth smiled and took out a somewhat old communicator from his pocket, Ji Ruyu took it, thanked him softly, and immediately dialed out a string of familiar communication numbers.

After two slight ticks, the communicator was quickly connected, and a tired female voice sounded very haggard from the other side.

"Nan Nan......" Ji Ruyu shouted.

“……”

After a brief silence on the other side, there was a sudden shout of disbelief: "Like rain...... Like rain! Is that you? Is it really you? You've finally shown up. ”

"Did you know...... You're scared of me......" The voice was a little shaky, with a hint of crying.

"You've never lost touch with me for a day or a night."

"I'm afraid that you will encounter any danger in Beimu City......" Yang Ruonan said emotionally.

"How come, Nan Nan, I'm the head of the academy." Ji Ruyu forced herself to behave as usual, and smiled softly.

"How can you encounter something I can't solve in North Curtain City, you have too much heart, my communicator just has some malfunctions, now use another communicator, don't worry, wait for me in Perthvia, I will be back soon."

"That's good...... That's good. Yang Ruonan's voice was still a little trembling, and she said: "Since you lost contact, I have always had a bad premonition, and I was always worried that something would happen to you, but now that you are fine, it's really good." ”

"I'll be waiting for you in Perthvia and come back soon."

"Well, don't worry, I will definitely go back safely." Ji Ruyu replied softly, and immediately hung up the communication, handing the communicator to the old man in cloth.

"Thank you."

"Girl, is someone worried about you?" The old man in cloth took the communicator, looked at her, and asked with emotion.

Ji Ruyu was silent for a moment and said, "I don't want her to worry about me, and I don't want her to know about my injury." ”

"Alas, you girl, you look so beautiful, why do you have to look like this, and think about everything by yourself." The old man in cloth shook his head slightly, sighed softly, and said, "Just like that silly boy in my family, you young people always report good news and not bad news." ”

"Speaking of which, my kid said he was going on a mission, and he hasn't written home for a long time, and I don't know how it's going."

"I take the liberty of asking, what is the identity of your son?" Ji Ruyu raised her eyes and looked at the old man in cloth.

"It's nothing, it's like being a squad leader in an agency called the military department directly under our continent." Speaking of this, the tone of the old man in cloth was full of pride, after all, his son, as a soldier, was something that could already make him feel extremely honorable.

"Directly under the military department...... ......" Ji Ruyu's eyes trembled slightly, and she muttered: "The special direct subordinate troops of the North Muzhou Military Department, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes, it's such a name, girl, you actually know this, it's not simple." The old man in cloth said with some surprise.

Ji Ruyu smiled reluctantly, sat back on the bed, and said to the old man in cloth: "Your son must be a very good soldier. ”

"Of course." The old man in cloth was very happy, looking at Ji Ruyu as if he had met a confidant, and he was about to continue to say something, the little boy on the side hurriedly said: "Guo Ye, it's almost noon, you go back quickly, otherwise you will be trained again." ”

"Hey, really." Hearing this, the old man in cloth glared at the white-clothed boy fiercely, then looked at Ji Ruyu and said, "That girl, you have a good rest, old man, I will come to see you in the afternoon." ”

"Hmm." Ji Ruyu nodded lightly.

The old man in cloth left in a hurry, Ji Ruyu covered her waist with her palms, her forehead was oozing with sweat, she leaned on the bed, calming her somewhat fluctuating heart.

"Sister? What's wrong with your injuries? Seeing this scene, Xiao Tong hurriedly asked.

"It's okay." Ji Ruyu waved her hand, with a little sadness in her eyes, and muttered, "I just thought of something." ”

On August 2, in the third Red Moon War, the special troops directly under the military headquarters of the Northern Shoe City of the Communist Federation were almost wiped out in the face of the attack of more than a dozen leader-level red demons, and even lost their entire establishment.

The old gentleman, his son, may never come back.
