Chapter 040: Disfigurement
As soon as they stepped into the No. 1 room of Furong Courtyard, the two suddenly stopped. On the soft couch in the hall, Li Mo was unconscious, and he was red at the moment. Lying topless and quietly, Ling Yue was performing surgery on him with a solemn face, and next to him were two Tsing Yi guards who were ready to serve at any time.
Not seeing the figure she wanted to see, Hua Mian's heart tightened, and her eyes turned to the bedroom, and through the huge brocade screen, she could vaguely see that there were two people standing and sitting next to the bed. Without thinking much about it, she quickly ran to the bedside, but was stunned the moment she saw Ji Yunye. If he said that when he saw him being burned by fire, his liver and intestines were broken, then at this moment, seeing him burned beyond recognition, his heart was like a knife.
Ji Yunye was sitting on the edge of the bed without an inch, only putting a brocade blanket on his lap to cover the important parts, and most of the skin on his body was red and purple. Liang Yinchu was administering medicine to the part of his burns. He looked up and saw that it was Hua Mian, and his silent eyes instantly bloomed with brilliance, and when he saw that she was safe and sound, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips with relief, but his brows frowned in pain because he had pulled the wound.
Hua Mian couldn't control the sadness in her heart anymore, tears flowed down her eyes, she wanted to throw herself into his arms, but she was afraid of hurting him.
Ji Yunye stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from her face, but it made her tears even more turbulent. Because she saw that his slender jade hands, which were originally like peeling onions, were now red and purple, and even doubled in size. He must have been in pain, but he still wanted to comfort himself. If he hadn't gone to burn the tower, he wouldn't have suffered this calamity, and she wished that the person who burned was herself.
She gently held his palm and choked, "Doesn't it hurt?" ”
There was sadness in Ji Yunye's eyes: "Did I scare you like this?" ”
Hua Mian nodded, and hurriedly shook her head: "No matter what you look like, I still love you." ”
Ji Yunye only felt that his heart was like a stalk, he never knew that he would be so happy to hear her say the words "I love you" in person.
Hua Mian wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, reached out and took the medicine bottle in Liang Yinchu's hand and said, "You go to the Hexiang Courtyard to bring some clean and loose clothes for Brother Ye, and I will help Brother Ye with medicine." ”
After Liang Yinchu left, Hua Mian helped him with medicine with trembling hands. With each stroke, it was as if someone had been hit hard in her heart, and when it hit the burns on her face, she could barely breathe. His entire face, with almost no intact skin, was covered with red blisters, and in several places the skin was broken, revealing red flesh.
Hua Mian never knew that it was just a simple medicine, but it was so tormenting. When she finished applying the ointment with difficulty, she felt that her whole body was hollowed out, and she had no strength. She took a deep breath and exhaled it for a long time, trying to keep herself as calm as possible, but she collapsed when she met Ji Yunye's deep eyes, and finally threw herself on the bed and cried bitterly.
Ji Yunye sighed and said, "It's me who was hurt, why are you crying so sadly." ”
Hua Mian lifted her little face full of tears from the bed, and choked up: "Let's change, you will know what mood I am in." ”
Ji Yunye said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense. If my suffering can shield you from all calamity, I will be willing to do so. ”
These words not only did not make Hua Mian's heart feel comfortable, but made her more and more sour. She sat up from the bed, tried to reach out and hug him, but held back.
At this time, Liang Yinchu sent Ji Yunye's clothes, Hua Mian carefully helped him put them on, and gently placed him on the bed, and then said softly: "I don't want you to protect me from disasters, I just want you to live safely and well." Brother Ye, when you're all right, let's find a place to live in seclusion, okay? ”
Looking at her red and swollen apricot eyes full of anticipation, Ji Yunye grabbed her hands, didn't speak, and only looked at her compassionately. At this moment, Hua Mian's heart ached almost suffocated, and she suddenly felt that he wanted to fly away more than herself, and only because of some bonds that she didn't know about had to do it.
In the end, he collected the emotions in his eyes and smiled slightly: "Mian'er doesn't dislike me, I'm very moved, but you don't need to worry, Ling Yue's medicine can not only heal injuries and relieve pain, but also invigorate blood and muscles, clear heat and cool blood, and within half a month, I can recover as before." ”
Hua Mian was a little incredulous when she heard this, she stared at him for a long time and said, "What you said is true?" ”
Ji Yunye said: "If you don't believe it, you can ask Ling Yue." ”
Hua Mian suddenly burst into tears and laughed: "Why didn't you say it earlier, I thought it was ......"
"Thought I'd be disfigured?"
"I'm naturally afraid, and anyway, how can I not feel sorry for you when you suffer? If I can get you back to normal, let me do anything. ”
Seeing that Ji Yunye was already tired, Hua Mian helped him tuck the quilt and said, "You shouldn't be tired now, rest early." ”
When Hua Mian walked out of the bedroom, Ling Yue had already completed the operation and was dressing Li Mo with medicine. She walked up to Ling Yue and said, "How is he hurt?" ”
Ling Yue wiped the sweat from her forehead, and her voice was a little tired: "It hurt the heart, fortunately the piercing is not deep, the injured part has been stitched up by me, and it should be no big problem to recuperate for a month, but you can't use force again in the future, unless you can pick up the fire lotus." ”
Hua Mian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this: "There is Lao Ayue." Anyway, we're going to pick fire lotus, and we're going to pick more when the time comes. ”
Ling Yue nodded: "I hope it will be as you wish." ”
At this moment, he had bandaged Li Mo properly, and was gently dressing him. Hua Mian hesitated: "Ah Yue, can Brother Ye's injuries really recover?" ”
The movement in Ling Yue's hand paused slightly, and then continued: "Although my medicine has a good effect, it is still difficult to fully recover. However, coincidentally, if you can use the fire lotus to apply it internally and externally, it can be restored to the same as before. ”
Hua Mian's eyes lit up and said, "It's great! The three of you are here to recuperate, protected by Liang Yinchu's secret guards and Kang Muning's Tsing Yi guards, and Kang Muning and I will go to Yuxue Peak early tomorrow morning. ”
Ling Yue said with a straight face: "The Jade Snow Peak is extremely steep, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the two of you to climb, so it's better to bring a few more guards." ”
"You have three serious illnesses here, in order to prevent the assassins from sneaking up again, you must have more people to protect you, not to mention that Kang Muning said that you also need these guards to take turns to help you suppress the toxicity in your body, so these people are all left to you."
Without waiting for Ling Yue to have any objections, Kang Muning, who was sitting on the Taishi chair next to him and taking a nap, said: "What Myanmar said is right, you really need manpower here, I will send a message to Kyoto to send some more manpower over, and at the same time order someone to pick the fire lotus in advance, we just need to go over and pick it up." ”
What he said was reasonable, and Ling Yue no longer had any objections: "That's fine, then it's hard work." ”
"You're welcome! I'll arrange it now. Kang Muning was resolute, and after speaking, he got up and walked out.
After Ling Yue settled Li Mo, she asked Liang Yinchu and the two Tsing Yi guards who accompanied her to guard the door. After only the four of them were left in the room, he tiredly placed himself on the Taishi chair.
Hua Mian walked up behind him in distress and stretched out her hands to knead his temples for him. He was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his lips lifted slightly, and he slowly relaxed.
After a while, Hua Mian thought he was asleep, but he heard him say, "Do you know who wants to kill you?" ”
When Hua Mian heard this, her eyes suddenly dimmed: "The assassin of Brother Ye and the assassin of me are not the same group. "She doesn't know who is going to kill Brother Ye, but who wants to kill her, I'm afraid Hua Ruoshui is the most suspicious. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but increase the force in her hand, causing Ling Yue to frown.
"Oh? How did you find out? ”
"I hypnotized the Assassins and asked them." Hua Mian sneered, "The people behind the scenes are really cautious, and they can hide themselves so well while buying the murderer." In vain, I only knew that they were not accomplices with the assassin of Brother Ye. ”
Ling Yue's breath was suffocated, and the words "flowers like water" were already ready to come out. It seems that she really listened to her own admonition, but unfortunately she did not dispel the idea of assassinating Hua Mian, but learned the lesson of the assassination failure and intensified it.
Hua Mian didn't ignore his reaction, and for a moment his body suddenly stiffened, and the muscles in his forehead tightened, which was a sign of gritting his teeth out of hatred. Although I couldn't see his expression, I could imagine that there must have been a dark tide in his always warm eyes.
Could it be that he also guessed that the assassination of himself was likely to be Hua Ruoshui?
In the end, Ling Yue didn't say much, only told her to be more careful in the future.
Now that she has experienced so much, how does Ling Yue not know about her good flowers? Therefore, even if he concealed or covered up Hua Ruoshui's behavior, she didn't want to care about it anymore. At least compared to Hua Ruoshui, his weight in his heart seems to be heavier. So she was content.
