Chapter Eighty-Three: Removing the Disguise
Yang Ling reached out and tore off Zhu Changbai's middle coat, using the strips of cloth he had just torn, one tied his feet, one gagged his mouth, and the other tied his hands, and finally twisted his middle coat into a five-foot-long rope and tied it to his feet.
With all this done, he pulled one end of the rope in his hand, "Xiaobai, close your eyes." ”
Qu Xiaobai obediently closed his eyes.
Yang Ling was short and carried Qu Xiaobai on his back, and then said, "Okay, you can open it." ”
Qu Xiaobai opened his eyes.
Yang Ling carried her home, dragging Zhu Changbai in his hands.
Qu Xiaobai asked Zhu Changbai what to do at first, but when he heard the sound behind him, he didn't ask. It's just that she can't see that the clothes on Zhu Changbai's body have been stripped off by Yang Ling now, otherwise, she may not know what to say about Yang Ling's approach.
Halfway through, Zhu Changbai woke up from the pain in his back, but he found that he couldn't speak at all, his hands and feet were tied, and his whole body was wrapped like a stick, and he couldn't even struggle, he could only whine.
"Whew, cut your tongue." Yang Ling said coldly.
Qu Xiaobai couldn't help but be chilled by this voice.
Zhu Changbai scratched his heart and liver in pain, but he didn't dare to whine again.
On the way, I met Lin Pei and Tang Muqiao, who came over.
Lin Pei and Tang Muqiao saw Zhu Changbai dragging in Yang Ling's hand, and then looked at Qu Xiaobai who was lying on Yang Ling's back, and asked what happened urgently, but before Qu Xiaobai could explain, they heard Yang Ling say coldly: "Tang Muqiao, my wife is seriously injured and can't go to the county office, please go to the county government and invite the county order here." After a pause, "Let Zhu Changsong come too." ”
Hold the grass, this ...... What kind of arrogant tone is this? Wait a minute...... He didn't hide it in front of Tang Muqiao and Lin Pei, didn't he expose himself?
Also, is he ordering Tang Muqiao? Not only is he ordering Tang Muqiao, but he is also ordering the county order?
Fool, this can't be helped, right?
Qu Xiaobai was about to say no to Tang Muqiao, but Tang Muqiao said very calmly: "Okay." ”
"......" Qu Xiaobai was stunned.
Tang Muqiao only said the word "good" and left. Yang Ling handed the rope to Lin Pei's hand, and left with Qu Xiaobai on his back.
Back at home, with the help of the wind lamp in the house, Yang Ling suddenly found a blood stain on his chest.
Fang Cai was so anxious that he forgot to ask Qu Xiaobai if he was injured, and when he saw the blood stains, his heart twitched, "Xiaobai, are you injured?" ”
After asking, he immediately realized that he was asking too stupidly, and carried Qu Xiaobai to perform light skills and went straight to the backyard.
He was walking fast, Qu Xiaobai only felt like he was running, and this time he performed light skills, it was like flying, Qu Xiaobai's eyes widened violently, "Fool, you ...... Are you a legendary light skill? ”
Yang Ling only said "um", and immediately arrived in their house, and the Zhang family was already alarmed at that time, and went out to look for them, and they had not come back at this time, but the ten maids in the backyard had gathered under the eaves of this courtyard to wait for news.
The maids saw only a shadow passing by, followed by the sound of the door closing, and they didn't know what was happening, they looked at each other, and some of them were bold, and they tentatively knocked on the door, but the door did not open, but a voice came from inside, "Go and boil hot water!" ”
The voice was cold and depressed, and the maids looked at each other for a moment, and they didn't know who was talking, but they didn't dare to hesitate, and they hurriedly went to the kitchen to boil hot water.
Yang Ling placed Qu Xiaobai on the bed and untied the clothes on her body, only to see that her whole body was covered with bruises and purple scars, and there were some slight abrasions, but they were not very serious, only the one on her forehead was the most serious, and she was still bleeding outward, all over her face and chest. It's scary to look at.
"Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Yang Ling's voice trembled terribly.
Qu Xiaobai held his hand and smiled to himself: "What is this little injury, my little brother Bai can't beat Xiaoqiang." ”
What the ghost is called by Brother Xiaobai, and what the hell is Xiaoqiang, Yang Ling doesn't know, and he is not in the mood to know, he picked up the cotton towel and wiped the blood stains on Qu Xiaobai's forehead first, and his movements were extremely gentle.
"Don't speak." The tone is extremely ungentle.
Qu Xiaobai always knew that there was a huge difference between the real Yang Ling and that stupid Yang Ling, but he really didn't expect that the real Yang Ling was like this.
It's more than domineering and ruthless.
Qu Xiaobai was silent and didn't dare to speak.
The maids quickly boiled hot water, knocked on the door, and Yang Ling said, "The door is not locked, bring the water in." He grabbed the quilt and covered Qu Xiaobai's body.
The maid brought the water in, and saw that there were only Yang Ling and Qu Xiaobai in the house, and her eyes were straight in shock, but Yang Ling just said lightly: "Bring the water." ”
Where is the slightest bit of stupidity?
"What are you doing?"
"Ah...... Oh. The maid who carried the water only felt that his voice was as cold as frost, and the person could be completely frozen from head to toe, and his consciousness was led by him, and he brought the water to him, rested it on the footstool, and heard him say: "Has the Zhang family come back?" She is familiar with the town and asks her to go to the pharmacy to get medicine. ”
The maid agreed, "I'll take a look." "Hurry out.
"Wait."
The maid stopped like a marionette.
Yang Ling stood up, walked to the table, picked up a pen and wrote a few flavors of medicine on the white paper, and handed it to the maid, "Prescription." ”
The maid took the prescription tremblingly, exited the room, and went outside, just as Zhang and the other two women returned, and the maid hurriedly handed the prescription to Zhang.
Zhang asked what the situation was, but the maid couldn't say anything, so Zhang had to go and grab the medicine first.
In an unmanned alley in the town, Lin Pei dragged Zhu Changbai, who was white-flowered, and stopped in the middle of the alley.
Lin Pei squatted down, looked at Zhu Changbai quietly, and said, "Now, I pull out the cloth ball in your mouth, you are not allowed to scream, if you call, I will make you unable to make a sound for the rest of your life." ”
His tone was extremely light, as light as stagnant water, and people couldn't help but think of death.
Zhu Changbai nodded tremblingly.
Lin Pei pulled out the cloth ball in his mouth, Zhu Changbai's throat itched badly, but he didn't dare to make a sound, and he held it back.
"Now, when I ask you, you answer truthfully."
"Oh." Zhu Changbai's voice trembled like chaff.
"Tell me the truth about what happened."
Zhu Changbai didn't dare to hide it at all, he told him how he met Qu Xiaobai, how he had bad intentions, how he dragged Qu Xiaobai into the barren grassland, and how he was saved by Qu Xiaobai.
After hearing this, Lin Pei asked, "You were tied up by that man?" ”
"Yes."
In the dark, Lin Pei's expression couldn't be seen, and his voice was still as faint as stagnant water: "How did he knock you out?" ”
"I ...... I didn't know it, I felt a black shadow falling from the sky, and my head was confused, and I didn't know anything. ”
Since he fainted, he naturally doesn't know what happened later.
"When did you wake up?"
"Let's go...... When I walked to Osmanthus Lane. ”
"Did you hear what they said?" They naturally refer to Yang Ling and Qu Xiaobai.
"Listen, hear some."
"What did you say?"
"I, I was dragged along, my back was worn out, and it hurt so much, so I whimpered a few times, and the man threatened me, saying that if I whined again, he cut my tongue. The woman said, 'Fool, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless!' The man said again, Ling Chi is not too much for the woman who dares to touch him, the woman said, Ling Chi is not enough, the castration is good, the castration is finished, fry my stuff with chili peppers, and then give me to eat. Master, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please let me go, I don't dare anymore. ”
Lin Pei stuffed the cloth ball back into his mouth, and said leisurely: "Whether I let you go or not, it depends on what those two people mean." You ask for it, and you ask both of them. ”
Lin Pei dragged Zhu Changbai and walked slowly towards Qu Xiaobai's mansion.
In the house, Zhang grabbed the medicine and came back, Yang Ling took the medicine, opened the herbal medicine bag in it, checked it, handed it to Zhang, and said, "Go and boil a big pot of potion and carry it over." ”
Zhang's surprise is no less than that of the little girl, what a fool, why is it suddenly normal?
Yang Ling was impatient: "What are you doing in a daze?" Not in a hurry? ”
Zhang's performance was the same as that of the little maid, both were dominated by consciousness, and they went to the kitchen in a daze.
Yang Ling took out a packet of medicinal powder from the medicine, it was Jinchuang Medicine, although it was not the best, but now it was in a hurry, so he could only use it first.
He took the medicinal powder, returned to the bed, and said softly: "It may hurt a little, bear with it." Tomorrow I will go to the mountains to collect medicine, and I won't leave a scar on your forehead, so you don't have to be afraid. Xiaobai. ”
He was as cold as an iceberg all of a sudden, and as soft as spring water for a while, Qu Xiaobai was a little incapable of adapting, "That, it's okay, I'm not afraid of pain." ”
She knew that the pain in his heart was worse than the pain in her body now, otherwise he would never have lost his mind, and he did not hesitate to ignore his disguise.
Although she was very worried that he had exposed himself like this, how to go in the future, but since it was already like this, she could only take one step at a time.
Yang Ling sat down on the edge of the bed, wiped her face again with hot water, carefully cleaned the wound, and then scooped the medicinal powder with a wooden spoon, applied it to the wound little by little, and applied it evenly, folded the gauze into a thin square, covered the wound, and wrapped it with a bandage.
Every step was light and soft, Qu Xiaobai looked at it blankly, and he was stunned.
The more he did this, the more guilty she felt.
He loved too much, but she couldn't reciprocate his love.
Yang Ling finished treating the wound, sat on the edge of the bed, held her hand, as if he saw through what she was thinking, and said, "Don't be burdened. I am me and you are you. I want you no matter what, that's my business, it's none of your business, you just have to do what you want. ”
Qu Xiaobai wriggled his lips, but he couldn't say half a word.
She really didn't know how to answer him.
This nineteen-year-old boy, before this time, all his sanity collapsed, and he even didn't care about his own life and death, but at this moment, he was as rational as an old wise man who had gone through vicissitudes and was as stable as Mount Tai.
How did he change so quickly, and what kind of mental journey did he go through, Qu Xiaobai only felt dumbfounded and puzzled.
There was a knock on the door outside, and Yang Ling said, "Come in." ”
The door was pushed open, and it was Lin Pei who came in.
