Evans locked the door from the inside and didn't plan to work anymore today.

He limped down on the stool, clutching his aching arm and frowning, "Thank you for saving me, but you should have killed that guy named Jon so that Brian could taste the loss of a loved one." ”

"What do you mean?" Sumu didn't know that Jon was Duke Brian's son, and that Stella was his daughter.

"Huh." Evans sneered, and with difficulty removed the clothes on his upper body, and in an instant, large bruises were exposed to the air, and some places were obviously purple and red, such wounds were all over the body, and it seemed that the two strong men were not lightly attacked.

If Su Mu hadn't appeared in time, Evans estimated that he would have gone to meet his father long ago.

Evans sat in front of a large vanity mirror, and looking at himself in the mirror covered in scars, he only frowned slightly, and began to explain: "The man you let go is called Jon, the son of Duke Brian, but it was a coincidence that I met him in the market. ”

Su Mu saw that Jon was a nobleman, but he never expected that he was Brian's son.

"And ......," Evans' voice suddenly lowered.

"What else?" Su Mu was puzzled.

After hesitating for a while, Evans finally spoke: "Remember Stella?" She is Jon's sister, that is, Stella is Brian's daughter. ”

After hearing this, Su Mu was shocked, Evans, who was deeply hated at the moment, Su Mu didn't know what unpredictable things he would do.

"So what? What do you want to do? He looked at Evans uneasily.

Unexpectedly, the other party smiled coldly and shook his head: "Don't worry, I'm not mean enough to attack a woman, I have only one target, and that is Duke Brian." ”

His gaze turned sharp, his eyes as sharp as a knife staring at himself in the mirror.

"I'll help you with medicine, herbs are fine, do you have them in your shop?" Su Mu looked around the carpenter's shop.

"Medicine?" Evans shook his head, "I don't have money to buy medicine, after my father died, the family relied on me to make money, I just took over, I am not familiar with a lot of work, and I don't have extra financial resources at all, so forget it, it's just a skin injury, it's not in the way." ”

Su Mu frowned after hearing this, Evans was too hard-mouthed, and he was clearly fainting from pain, and he actually insisted that it was okay.

He crouched down and scrutinized the wounds on his body, both heavy and light, and reached out and touched it lightly in the direction of his ribs, so painful that Evans screamed.

Su Mu sighed and said, "The ribs are broken, you say you're okay?" ”

A young man who is only a teenager has a lot of ability to swallow his anger.

"It's okay, just rest for a while." Evans was about to get up, the pain in his legs and ribs came again, and he fell back with weakness in his legs, and this time he ate so hard that his eyes blackened, and Evans realized for the first time what it means to have a gold star in his eyes.

"Don't move yet." Su Mu brought a few more stools and arranged them in a row, and pointed to them, "Lie down." ”

"Oh......" Evans obediently climbed up with pain.

I didn't think it before, but once I relaxed, the pain that pierced my heart was deeply felt, and Evans was helped to lie flat, and he was already in a cold sweat.

"By the way, what do you want to do?" He looked at Su Mu suspiciously.

Immediately after, Su Mu attached his hand to the place where Evans' ribs were broken, and suddenly a burst of green light appeared, cool as water, and like the cool breeze of a summer night, the feeling of coldness tossed around his abdomen, as if a gentle air flow was scattered in his body.

This feeling is indescribably comfortable.

Evans enjoyed the moment, completely forgetting about the injuries he had suffered.

It didn't take long.

"Alright, you get up and try to move around." Su Mu slowly lowered his hand, turned around and gasped for a few breaths, looking a little tired.

"Already?" Evans got up, the range of movement was not large, after all, he had suffered before, and he had already taken precautions, but who expected that until he sat up, he didn't feel any more pain.

He spun his arm, got up again, and jumped lightly twice.

It's almost all good!

Su Mu is really amazing!

Just as he was about to thank him, Evans walked around to Su Mu, only to find that his face was pale and he looked like he was about to fall.

"Are you alright?" He hurriedly held Su Mu up and said worriedly, "You actually made yourself like this in order to heal me?!" I ......"

"It's okay...... Send me back to the yew tree, I can slowly recover. Su Mu's words seemed weak.

"Good! I'll help you back right away! Evans found a clean set of clothes to put on, and then found a cart to send Su Mu back.

Watching him slowly disappear in front of his eyes and gradually melt into the tree, Evans always showed a worried look, if Su Mu hurt himself in order to save himself, then he would live in guilt for the rest of his life.

Time passed minute by minute, and he just sat under the tree and accompanied Su Mu.

The two of them didn't say a word, just waited quietly.

Don't think about revenge, don't think about reality.

"Why don't you go back?" For a long time, Su Mu's voice sounded in his ears, breaking the silence.

"Today's shop is closed for one day." Evans smiled, "Only today, I want to have a good rest." ”

"It's okay to rest." Su Mu said, and then there was no sound.

Evans got up suddenly and patted the thick and rough trunk of the yew tree: "Su Mu, I think, I don't need your help, I'll take revenge by myself." I've thought about it, I'm just planting a tree, you don't have to help me kill Brian, don't you think it's not worth it to kill someone who has nothing to do with it? ”

"......" The other party did not respond, but he must have listened.

"Although you are not human, I think you are more like a human than those so-called nobles, the scum of Brian, killing him will only dirty your hands." Evans lowered his head and laughed at himself, "And I'm just a civilian, not like you......"

"Not like me?" Su Mu suddenly spoke, "Evans, I never seem to have said that I am a good person, right?" ”

"What?" Evans was stunned.

Su Mu's dull voice sounded, as if he really lived in the bark: "I am not a diligent person, I always want to hide in this thick bark for a lifetime, thousands of years, ten thousand years, even if it is hundreds of thousands of years, loneliness has already worn my heart, people who have passed by have been chased and killed, and there are also hanged on my tree, I didn't think about saving them, I was indifferent and ruthless at that time, too, just a tree, itself did not shed blood, naturally ruthless." ”

"But time is long, and it can always teach me something, so I gradually understand a lot, including people's hearts."

"Don't talk about it." Evans interrupted his words, "I just said, I don't need your help, I can do it myself." ”

Listening to his tone, there seemed to be some frustration.

Also, let others help you get revenge, is this like a word? Even if the other party is willing, it is difficult to escape the condemnation in his heart.

But Su Mu didn't mind, he suddenly appeared, and his complexion had recovered a little.

"If you go and kill the duke, that's an egg hitting a stone." He said solemnly.

"Anyway, it's none of your business, wouldn't it be nice for you to be a tree here in peace? What do you have to do with my revenge? Evans turned his head, his tone becoming less friendly.

"Why don't you listen? It's easy for me to kill people, and if you go, you're going to die. Su Mu said, "Besides, on the day of the birthday banquet, the Brian family will go to celebrate the king's birthday, didn't you think that you would not be able to do anything after seeing Stella?" ”

Evans was shocked to be reminded of this.

Why haven't you thought about it? Evans had certainly thought that Stella's kindness was the only favor God had given to the Brian family, but it was punishment for Stella.

But how can you not avenge the revenge of killing your father? No matter what she thinks of herself, Evans will still be ruthless.

So, he was even more determined to do it himself: "Enough! Peters is my father, and has nothing to do with you, Su Mu, I appreciate your kindness, but if you insist on going, I won't stop you, but I will definitely kill him before you do. ”

"Are you crazy? So what do you leave your mother to do? If you are caught, you will be executed, and she will not be able to escape from it. ”

"I'll let her run away first, out of this kingdom, and you won't have to worry about this anymore."

"And what if I insist on it?" Su Mu rarely showed such an angry expression, he was really angry by Evans's naivety.

"Sumu." Evans suddenly became solemn and serious, and there was even a pleading in his tone, "I was born as a human being, so I should take responsibility for my own life and let others dirty my hands for me, I really can't do it, please, let me go and finish Brian with my own hands." ”

"......" Su Mu's words choked in his throat.

The firmness in Evans' eyes was like a raging flame, and Su Mu knew that he would not change his mind again, so he did not persuade him any further.

Seeing that Su Mu stopped talking, the young man in front of him turned around and left, without saying goodbye.

Except for that heart-to-heart "thank you".

Looking at his departing figure, Su Mu had quietly made plans in his heart, and when he completed Evans's revenge, he quietly left, this small western town, like his eastern face, really couldn't get along.

There was still half a month before the king's birthday feast, and the royal city was at least two days away, so there were some barricades for Evans, and he naturally could not reach it in time.

In fact, Su Mu also thought about ending Duke Brian in advance, but on the way back, he heard that Duke Brian had already left the town, and it was only about an hour away, presumably Jon and Stella would follow him later.

Leaving at this time must have been to prepare for the king's birthday banquet in advance, so he deliberately went there earlier.

You must know that the king's birthday is a day for the whole country to celebrate, and no one dares to slack off at will.

From a distance, Evans's figure had turned into a small black dot, and instead of going home, he headed in the direction of the bazaar.

Presumably, he couldn't face his mother, so he planned to go to the shop for a night's sleep, but how would he spend the next few days?

Evans's painful heart had been cut open, and the blood flowed, but he couldn't stop it......
