Chapter 43: Not the first time
Murong Zheng eliminated these people much faster than Lu Linlang imagined, and just as she was lying at the bottom of the bed thinking about whether to rush out to help, she suddenly heard that the room had fallen silent, and then there was a sound of chatter, probably Murong Zheng dragged those people aside.
"Alright, come out."
Lu Linlang lay on the ground, thought about whether this sentence was said to her, hesitated for a while before crawling out from under the bed, first showing his head, and saw Murong Zheng standing not far in front of him.
The room was dimly lit, and I couldn't see his expression, or if he was hurt, "Can I come out now?" ”
"Well, it's all been solved by me." Murong Zheng nodded.
Lu Linlang hurriedly got out from under the bed with her hands and feet, her heart was still pounding, and she saw a few people lying there in the corner of the room next to her, I don't know if they were dead, there was a bloody smell in the room, so she had to look away.
"Are these people the same people as before?" Lu Linlang stood a few steps away from Murong Zheng and stopped, looked at the direction of the door, the wind was still blowing outside, and the door was kicked open by those people just now, and it was still wide open.
The cold wind poured in, she hugged her arms and shrunk her shoulders, Murong Zheng turned around and walked to the table and lit the candles, then walked to those people with the candle flame and took a look, and blew out the candles before Lu Linlang saw those people.
"I don't know who sent these people, you're not hurt, are you?" Putting down the candlestick in his hand, Murong Zheng walked towards Lu Linlang.
Lu Linlang stood with her back to the door, the moonlight outside the room spilled in, she saw Murong Zheng coming out of the darkness little by little, the clothes on his body were torn several times, I don't know if he was injured, and he was about to take two steps towards him, but saw his face suddenly change.
"Be careful!" Then he rushed to her like a sharp sword, grabbed her with his long arm, and took her towards the cabinet next to her, Lu Linlang didn't have time to react, just bit his lip and was ready to be hit hard.
But I only heard a muffled sound, and it was Murong Zheng's arm that hit the cabinet, she was unscathed and was protected by him in his arms, and there was a short arrow on the ground where they were standing just now, which pierced deep into the ground.
After confirming that Lu Linlang was okay, Murong Zheng quickly chased him out from the door, but the courtyard was empty, there was no figure, he only paused for a few seconds and turned back to the room, "Are you injured?" ”
"I don't, what about you?" In just a short period of time, Lu Linlang didn't feel sleepy at all about these thrilling things, and he was even more in a cold sweat.
"I'm fine, I'll send you back first." Murong Zheng saw Lu Linlang's shrunken appearance, sent her back to her own room, and looked around vigilantly along the way, there was no movement.
When he returned to his room, Lu Linlang hurriedly found a piece of clothing to put on, and his body gradually warmed up.
Murong Zheng turned around and walked to the table to light the candles in the room, "Don't put out the candles tonight, if you're tired, rest early, I'll be guarding outside, it shouldn't be fine." ”
The room lit up, and Lu Linlang's heart also relaxed, faintly smelling a faint smell of blood, and raised his eyes to look at Murong Zheng, who was about to turn away, "Are you injured?" ”
"Maybe, it's just a small injury, I'll deal with those people first." Murong Zheng didn't seem to care if he was injured or not, and after speaking lightly, he turned around and walked out of Lu Linlang's room, and helped her take the door.
Lu Linlang sat on the edge of the bed, she definitely didn't dare to let her sleep at this time, so she simply got up and got dressed, and took out a few bottles of medicine from the medicine box in the cabinet, which were some commonly used medicines that she bought by the way when she went to buy fabrics, although they are not as convenient as modern alcohol bandages, but it is not impossible to use them to deal with emergencies.
turned the medicine out and sorted it out, and was about to go to the kitchen to boil some hot water, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Qinghong standing at the door, raising his hand and about to knock on the door.
"Shopkeeper, has something happened? I see that the lights in your room are still on, and there seems to be some movement outside just now, is it a thief? ”
"Ah......" Lu Linlang was slightly stunned, she almost forgot that there were two girls in this courtyard, and she was afraid that telling them the truth would scare them, so she nodded along with Qinghong's words, "There is indeed a thief, but Brother Murong has already restrained it, you go back and rest, it's cold outside." ”
"Really a thief? Are you okay with the shopkeeper? Qinghong instantly became nervous, turned her head and looked around in the courtyard, and looked at Lu Linlang with a worried face, "Don't be afraid, shopkeeper, I'll protect you." ”
The little girl was as thin as a chicken cub, and she was standing in front of her and said that she wanted to protect her, Lu Linlang was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "Don't worry, the thief has been beaten away, you, better be more careful yourself." ”
After Lu Linlang finished speaking, she was about to go to the kitchen, and Qinghong followed behind her, "Shopkeeper, what are you going to do?" I'll do it for you, it's so late that you better go to rest early, you're so busy every day, it's not okay if you don't rest at night......"
"I'm a little thirsty, go to the kitchen and boil some hot water, it's none of your business, you can go back and rest." This girl kept chattering, she didn't mean to go back to rest at all, she couldn't let her know what happened in the yard just now, Lu Linlang accentuated her tone.
Qinghong hurriedly stopped, blinked with big eyes, and lowered her head a little scared, "I know, I shouldn't have come to disturb the shopkeeper, I'll go back." ”
Seeing that she hurriedly ran back to the room next to her and hurriedly closed the door, Lu Linlang regretted a little that she spoke to her in such a heavy tone, but this girl was a little lacking in rules, and she should be taught well.
Qinghong returned to the house, and Lanyi had already woken up, and when she saw her come back, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?" There seemed to be a lot of movement in the yard just now. ”
"The shopkeeper said that he was a thief, but Brother Murong has already beaten the thief away, sister, don't be afraid, the shopkeeper let us rest earlier." Qinghong soothed and said that she was about to lift her feet to bed.
Lan Yi sat on the edge of the bed with a frown, "You say, could she want to sell the two of us overnight?" As a result, you have now woken up and found out, so you have come up with such an excuse? ”
"Sister, what are you thinking?" Qinghong lay down, and another carp sat up, looking at the blue clothes helplessly, "If they really want to sell the two of us, do they need to spend so much effort?" Brother Murong has to go to the military camp every day, isn't it easier to tie up the two of us and take them over on the road? ”
"If you say that, will they really do it?" Lan Yi was even more frightened when she heard Qinghong say this, and Qinghong sighed, "We've all been here for so many days, do you see when they have ever had such a mind?" If you think about the shopkeeper like that again, I'm going to sue. ”
"You stupid girl, I'm not worried about you, you have to have more eyes when you go out, you are always so blind, if people sell you, maybe you will help others count the money."
Lan Yi glanced at Qinghong, Qinghong snorted and got into the quilt, turned over and fell asleep with her back to her, "I won't tell you, sleep." ”
Lu Linlang went to the kitchen to boil hot water, and took the medicine he had just found to Murong Zheng's room, Murong Zheng's room also lit up, those people had already been disposed of by him, although he didn't know where to deal with them, but Lu Linlang didn't ask much.
"Why are you here?" Murong Zheng was about to briefly deal with the injuries on his body when he saw Lu Linlang walk directly into his room without knocking on the door.
"You're injured, I brought you hot water and medicine, do you need my help?" Lu Linlang seems to have been surprised by this situation for a long time, after all, the first few times the two of them met, they were fighting and killing, and it was not the first time they helped him bandage his wounds.
Murong Zheng looked at her with a calm expression, and then he was sure that what happened just now didn't frighten her, so he raised his chin and pointed to the small round table next to him, "Put it there, I can do it myself." ”
Lu Linlang put down his things and turned around to leave, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Murong Zheng reaching for the wound on his back, which was laborious and awkward, and it hurt so much that he frowned.
"Sit well, don't move." Murong Zheng originally thought that Lu Linlang had left, but suddenly heard her voice sounding from behind, and then skillfully helped him deal with the wound.
Murong Zheng frowned, he wanted to resist, but in the end he sat silently, the pain of the wound on his body was nothing, he had already experienced something more painful than these, so he frowned and didn't say a word during the whole process, not even a soft snort.
Lu Linlang had long known that Murong Zheng could bear the pain, but she still tried her best to lighten her strength, and when she gave him medicine, she was afraid that she would accidentally hurt him, and she was relieved until all the wounds were bandaged.
After this night, Lu Linlang would be more vigilant when he slept every night, fortunately, in the past two days, there had been no more dangerous situations in Xiuzhuang, but Murong Zheng did not come back in the past two days, and Lu Linlang specially bought some medicine before he could give it to him.
The dress for the Lin girl has also been prepared, and Su Liuli's dress has also reached the end, and after lunch, Lilac suddenly came to Linlang Embroidery Village with two maids.
Lu Linlang naturally recognized Lilac, but she didn't have a good face for her, she didn't even say hello, Lilac had to walk in by herself, seeing that Lu Linlang was busy making clothes for others, she snorted coldly, "Is our county lord's dress ready?" The county lord told me to take it back today. ”
"Didn't the county lord say last time that he would give an extra ten days, and it's only less than half of it, why do you want it today?" Lu Linlang frowned, the things in his hands did not stop, but his tone was slow and leisurely.
