Twenty-seven, confrontation
The banquet finally ended, and everyone in the Zheng Mansion sent away all the dignitaries. Zheng Wancai Shi Ran went back to her small courtyard. Fang Cai had learned that Qiu Qi had rescued the man in black, and he was in a very good mood. In the end, the west courtyard is a little deserted, and there are not many people along the way. The winter night was exceptionally dark, and the autumn beggar walked in front with a lantern. "Miss. The fourth lady was also in that room. ”
"She? It's a little weird. Let's do it when the opportunity arises. Zheng Wan remembered the sister she had just met today, this very strange person, for the entire Zheng Mansion, was a rumored person. Perennial bedridden, life is on the verge of death. Everyone is about to forget her, it seems that her body is a little weaker this day, but it will not be a big death.
"The slave will keep an eye out. A few days ago, the abnormality of Yundeguan may be related to ancient legends. I heard it from the National Teacher's Mansion. ”
"Heh, ancient legends? It's ridiculous. Is the national teacher grandstanding? ”
"Slaves and maids dare not speak falsely."
"If that's the case, then maybe it's still an ancient beast. More than once I have dreamed of a huge red bird. Zheng Wan said with a slight joke. That's it. This kind of thing, just listen to it. ”
"That's what Miss said."
While talking and laughing, I have arrived at the West Courtyard. As soon as she arrived at Qiu Qi's room, Zheng Wan hesitated a little, but she still chose to believe in her own vision, pushed open the door and walked straight in. Qiu begged to help close the door and guard the door.
The room is very dark, but people who practice martial arts, the ability to adapt to the darkness is naturally not weak, Zheng Wan looked coldly at the man who was meditating and pranayama beside the bed, this person was very thin, his eyes were closed, his brows were furrowed tightly, it seemed to be very painful, he heard the voice, but just now the girl had spent all her strength, and now she felt hard to sit and pranayama. And there were only two people coming, and one of them was the one who saved him, and he didn't think it was the one who was chasing him, so he ignored it.
Zheng Wan saw that the man was abnormal. Walked to the man's side, squatted down to catch the man's pulse, it seemed that the injury was not light, Zheng Wan found the chaos inside, and the breath was extremely unstable, Zheng Wan had to sit behind the man and use her own internal strength to help him recuperate. The man was startled, but he concentrated on breathing.
Zheng Wan's skills are not strong, and after this toss, her face is very pale. But if she saves people, she will save them to the end. Two hours later, the breath in the man's body calmed down, Zheng Wan put down her hand, the sweat on her forehead dripped down, and the blood on her lips faded. The man slowly opened his eyes, "Who are you?" Why save me? ”
"You don't have to know who I am. Okay, get out of here. I don't want to know why Qin Yinde sent a character like you to assassinate you today? It's really a good show, who is it for? Prince? Heh, but you don't have to say, I don't want to know what the hell Qin Yinde is doing. You go back and tell him, don't bother our Zheng family. Zheng Wan stood up from the ground and said expressionlessly.
The man's face turned very bad, and he suddenly picked up his sword and stabbed at Zheng Wan. "Are you Qin Yinde's man?"
"That's how you repay the favor?" Zheng Wan was already ready and pulled away.
"I don't need you to save me." The man was very angry, and the sword frequently grazed Zheng Wan.
"Miss." Qiu Qi heard the sound and hurriedly opened the door. The situation in front of her really surprised her, and the young lady was inexplicably trying to save this person from a bad background, but it was such an ungrateful person.
"Sword!" Zheng Wan has no weapons and suffers a little. Seeing Qiu beggar coming in, he hurriedly shouted.
An extremely sharp sword was thrown over, and Zheng Wan turned to catch it, against the man's sword. Back and forth, Qiu Qi didn't care about entering rashly, he could only stay aside, watching the confrontation of the two swords with anxious eyes.
"Huh." Zheng Wan's sword was already on the man's neck. This competition can only be regarded as dangerous. But the words in his mouth were very frivolous, "With your three-legged cat kung fu, even I can't beat it." What else can be done? Zheng Wan knew that in fact, the martial arts between them were equal, but the man's internal injuries were serious, and she didn't dare to rashly use her own moves, so she could only draw a gourd according to Zheng Pingxin's swordsmanship, so she fought so hard.
A chill flashed in the man's eyes, "Zheng Yinde, this kind of shameless person, I am not his person." Since it has fallen into your hands, you will be killed or chopped, and you will listen to it. "A stubborn look that is not afraid of life and death." The Zheng family is really a dog of the Qin family. ”
"Who do you think you are?" Zheng Wan's sword stretched forward, and the man's neck was bleeding instantly. "And which one did you send from? If you want to harm our Zheng family, you don't weigh your own ability, if it weren't for me, you would be dead by now. I dare to make a big deal of nonsense here. Assassinating Qin Yinde in the Zheng Mansion, this trick is stupid enough, and it is not self-sufficient. Since you are not Zheng Yinde's person, then you can obediently tell the person behind it, and I can spare your life. ”
"Hahaha, it's ridiculous. You are really the Zheng family, and you always want to ask for credit. "Disdain, disgust, and pain in the man's eyes were mixed together." The people behind it? You're going to bring him to life. ”
"Dead people?" Zheng Wan raised the corners of her eyebrows. "What? Do you really have a personal vendetta with Qin Yinde? Zheng Wan's tone was playful, "Who killed you?" Parents? Brothers? Wife and children? Oh, judging by your age, you probably haven't married a wife and had children yet. Looking at the increasingly angry face of the man in front of her, Zheng Wan was suddenly sad, she couldn't trust others, even if she felt that her judgment was right, she could only test it first, she was like walking on a tightrope, she had to be careful every step, and she couldn't make a mistake. Thoughts drift in the distance.
"Shut up!" The man suddenly broke away from the sword around his neck and stabbed the sword in his hand at Zheng Wan, and in a flash, the sword stabbed Zheng Wan. Little by little, blood stained the clothes red. The ridicule at the corner of Zheng Wan's mouth deepened.
"Miss." Qiu begged softly, she couldn't scream, she couldn't attract anyone at this time. The young lady was told not to do anything before, so she could only watch the young lady get hurt.
Zheng Wan looked at the blood oozing from her shoulder, a weird smile appeared on her face, and then she swung her sword to use a sword technique that she had learned recently, and the man in black was seriously injured after all, and he couldn't withstand this ever-changing sword technique, the sword in his hand was knocked down, and he fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Zheng Wanjian pointed directly at the man who fell to the ground, "I don't know what I can do, I still want to take revenge, an ant dies when it dies, and another waste is a good thing." ”
"You are the ants, Brother Yueyin is not! My master is not! The man retorted uncontrollably, "You are, you are not worthy of his fulfillment at all, and you killed him for your own selfish interests." You don't deserve it! Unworthy! I'm going to kill you. I wanted to fight, but my internal breath became chaotic again, and I fell to the ground in vain, "Hahaha, I'm so useless." Basking in his own pain, he didn't notice that the sword that had been pointed at him was hanging down.
Zheng Wan looked at the man, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes, and she raised her hand to knock the man unconscious.
"Miss." Qiu Qi stepped forward to see Zheng Wan's injury, "Qiu Qi is incompetent, and he can't protect Miss well." ”
"It's just a small injury," Zheng Wan didn't care about the injuries on her body at all. "Let's get him to bed together."
"No." Qiu Qi has always been obedient to Zheng Wan's words.
The two of them worked together to carry the man to the bed, "Go and get the medicine for the wound." ”
Qiu Qi frowned, and left the house without speaking.
Zheng Wan leaned over and took off the man's shirt to check the injury, in addition to the scars on the man's neck that were scratched by Zheng Wan, his body was covered with large and small wounds, but the wounds were not deep, they should all be caused by sword qi, these are all minor problems, the key internal injuries are relatively serious, and they need to be well regulated.
"Miss." Qiu Qi took the medicine and came back quickly, and saw the man naked and hurriedly turned his face sideways.
Zheng Wan took the medicine in Qiu Qi's hand and meticulously helped the man with the medicine.
"Miss." Qiu Qi realized what Zheng Wan was doing, and there was anxiety in his tone, "Men and women don't kiss." ”
Zheng Wan glanced at Qiu Qi, who was tilting her head sideways, and couldn't help but smile, "Could it be that you still want a fourth person to know about the matter here?" ”
Qiu Qi's face changed and changed, and finally said, "Then Miss, I'll take the medicine." He turned his head and wanted to take the medicine from Zheng Wan's hand.
"No need, I'm already dealing with it." Zheng Wan was expressionless and did not stop what she was doing. "There are some things that you don't have to worry too much about, you just know what you're doing, and if someone wants to blame something, whether you do it or not, you will always find a reason. It's important to me now to save him, much more important than this red tape. I don't care, and you don't have to. ”
"The slave is white." This is probably Miss, Qiu begged to say in his heart.
"Get another piece of clothing and come out. Oh, and take another soft stick. ”
Qiu Qi dug out a dress in the house and helped the man put it on with the young lady. And they bound the men with finesse. After doing these things, Zheng Wancai hastily dealt with the injury on her shoulder, during this time, this arm was injured twice, but this time it can be said to be insignificant compared to the last time.
"Miss, what should I do with this person?"
Zheng Wan was worried, "For the time being, he can't go out, his father and Qin Yinde will not relax their search for him, and when he goes out at this time, he is seriously injured, and if he is discovered, he will definitely die." When I woke up on a cloudy day, I took him to the secret room and hid for a while. ”
"Miss, is it worth it?" Qiu Qi had a rare question.
Zheng Wan sighed lightly, "Brother Yueyin, how can I not save it." ”
"Okay."
"Go to my room and rest. I'm guarding him here," Zheng Wan sat down in a chair beside her.
"Miss, let's still be guarded by slaves."
Zheng Wan shook her head slightly, "You go." I felt so uncomfortable that I couldn't sleep. You have to deal with other people on cloudy days, go and rest, and don't be seen by others. ”
"Yes."
"What, you're starting to disobey me?"
"The slave and the maid don't dare, and the slave and the maid retreat."
In the black night, Zheng Wan sat on the side and looked at the man on the bed, falling into deep thought. His brother Pingsheng is so dazzling. This person calls my brother Master? But this person's martial arts can't see a trace of the Zheng family, but there is a bit of Liangchu and Xiping's shadows. Thousands of mountains and rivers went to Kyoto just to assassinate Zheng Yinde? On a cloudy day, judge him well.
