Li Hao's pupils were dilated, and on the right half of his eroded face, his eyes seemed to be about to burst out, and before he could speak, a mouthful of blood slowly flowed out of his mouth.

His throat burst open at this moment of excitement, blood flowed out of his throat as if it could not be stopped, and he only felt that his legs were gradually weak, and he sat on the bed.

"Brother. Duan Jiu was taken aback when he saw this, he hurriedly helped Li Hao up, waited for him to sit down, and ran towards the outside of the Chen Pavilion.

After a while, Liu Wangchun and he hurriedly ran into the Chen Pavilion, and saw that Li Hao's face was as pale as death, and he had collapsed on the bed, and mouthfuls of blood flowed out of his mouth, staining the quilt around him red.

Liu Wangchun stepped forward to take a look, frowned, and shook his head with a sigh, looking very helpless and sad.

"Senior, please save him. Duan Jiu pleaded for someone for the first time, and he felt extremely guilty and sad at this moment as he watched Li Hao in bed waiting for death in pain but unable to do anything.

Liu Wangchun glanced back at Duan Jiu, and just wanted to speak, when he saw the Heavenly Maiden Xi raising her eyebrows lightly, she looked surprised, so she turned her head to take a look, and saw that Li Hao had already stared at the top of the pavilion, and passed away with reluctance and remorse.

Duan Jiu only felt a faint pain in his heart, an inexplicable sense of guilt suppressed his breathing, his eyes were solemn, and he whispered to himself, "I killed him." ”

"Duan Gongzi. Heavenly Maiden Xi frowned slightly, and gently put her hand on Duan Jiu's shoulder, feeling sad and sad like Duan Jiu.

Duan Jiu slowly stepped forward, closed his eyes for Li Hao, slowly picked him up, and walked outside the Chen Pavilion. The last touch of sunset outside is sprinkled on the road of Yuhua Pavilion, and the surroundings are quiet and splendid.

Duan Jiu finally buried Li Hao in the mountains and forests on the bamboo forest behind Yuhua Pavilion, and installed a nameplate for him, which read: "Li Hao's Tomb". A gust of wind blew leaves all over the ground, spreading around the cemetery, making it look cold and desolate.

Duan Jiu sighed lightly, although he knew that Li Hao would not be able to survive tonight even if he was not so angry with him, but, despite this, Li Hao also died because of him, even if he died only a quarter of an hour early, it would deprive and strangle him of a quarter of an hour.

There is essentially no difference between killing someone for decades and killing someone for a quarter of an hour.

The rational Duan Jiu was destined to bear this self-blame and guilt for the rest of his life, and he killed an innocent dying person.

Perhaps, he may not have killed Li Hao alone.

Duan Jiu gradually understood that everything does not exist alone, and everything is connected. Although he has never killed people with his own hands, he has killed too many people indirectly, even if those people may not be able to escape the fate of being killed without his intervention, but he is completely involved in the life and death of others, and he is destined to be unable to avoid this responsibility.

Duan Jiu looked at the bright moon and countless stars in the dark sky, thinking that the night was so beautiful tonight, if Li Hao could still live until now, he might be able to enjoy the last night of his life and die calmly, instead of dying in the struggle with hatred and unwilling pain.

The more Duan Jiu thought about it, the more he felt that his heart was miserable, tonight, he was destined to be sleepless, maybe every time he saw such a moonlight in the future, he was destined to be sleepless because of Li Hao's terrifying face in front of him.

"Whew" The evening breeze rises again, and the sound of frogs is still the same.

"Brother. A sweet, familiar voice came along with the natural winds of the night.

"Ling'er?" Duan Jiu looked back and saw that Ling'er was crawling towards him from the top of the Yuhua Pavilion, and her sweet and slightly sly smile could be seen under the moonlight.

"Brother, Ling'er is here to accompany you. Ling'er lay beside Duan Jiu and said with a smile.

"How did you climb up?" Duan Jiu was puzzled.

"Sister Xiaoxi asked me to come up. Ling'er said frankly.

Ling'er's words fell, and there was a burst of fragrance wafting in the wind, and Tiannu Xi walked slowly from the top of the pavilion, she was barefoot as she was that night, but the difference was that she put on a red robe tonight.

"Duan Gongzi, it turns out that the night here is so beautiful. Heavenly Maiden Xi squatted on the roof, looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky, and sighed.

Duan Jiu felt that it was inconvenient for the two of them to talk like this, so he also got up and sat not far away with her, Ling'er saw this, so she naturally hurriedly got up and sat between Duan Jiu and Tiannu Xi.

"Brother, the three of us are sitting here, and the attic won't collapse. Ling'er touched the cold tile under her buttocks and said worriedly.

"Silly Ling'er, the wood under the tiles can be acquainted, even if it is full of people, it will not collapse. Tiannu Xi chuckled.

"Really? The uncles who built the house are amazing. Ling'er was pleasantly surprised.

Heavenly Maiden Xi couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, this child's innocent side can always infect people and bring people happiness, but tonight, this happiness did not infect Duan Jiu, he was still in a heavy mood, and sat silent.

The twelve pavilions in front of him were lit with oil lamps, as if they were laying out some kind of formation, mysterious and beautiful. The people in the pavilion have fallen asleep, they don't know what the outside world looks like, and they can't care about the feelings of other people.

If a person can still have sweet dreams, he must still be happy.

After a few seconds of silence, all three of them looked at the same sky, but their moods were different.

Heavenly Maiden Xi sighed lightly and said, "Duan Gongzi, I know that it is useless to say that you don't blame yourself, I hope Duan Gongzi will always remember this feeling." Because, there is still a long way to go, and Duan Gongzi's hands will be stained with more and more blood. Don't get used to this feeling just because you're getting too much blood. Because, after that, it will be difficult for people to warm their hearts again. ”

The last sentence of Tiannu Xi was extremely lonely and sentimental, she was the same as Duan Jiu, she was a rational person, and she was a person who could observe words and feelings. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that she hopes that another person like herself will live in a different way, because she already knows that the way she has lived is painful.

However, in the world, is there any way to live without pain but in peace?

When Duan Jiu heard this, he was very moved in his heart, this was the first time he had met such a reasonable woman, who understood him better than his mother. The woman seems to understand what men want to hear and what they don't like to hear. Her coquettishness is so delicate that it won't make people feel bored, and her charm won't make people feel coquettish. Her coquettishness is delicate and pity, and this pity and heartbeat will never go out of style.

Ling'er frowned and muttered, "Sister Xiaoxi, brother, don't be sad, okay?"

Although Ling'er couldn't understand the meaning of Tiannu Xi's words, she could feel the helplessness and sadness in her tone. Ling'er didn't know about Li Hao, she just knew that her brother was worried and depressed in her words. This sensitive child seems to empathize with everything he sees and hears.

Heavenly Maiden Xi looked at Ling'er and chuckled, "Okay, Sister Xiaoxi won't be sad anymore." Like Ling'er, live a happy and happy life. ”

Ling'er nodded and said, "Well, well, live happily." With that, she took Duan Jiu's hand, looked at Duan Jiu and said, "Brother wants it too." ”

Duan Jiu smiled back at Ling'er and agreed, "Okay." ”

Ling'er saw Duan Jiu's reluctant smile under the moonlight, a little lost, and muttered: "Brother, since you met Brother Zhao, we have obviously met more and more friends, but my brother has become more and more unhappy......

Duan Jiu was stunned when he heard Ling'er's confession, yes, why? He obviously knew more and more friends, why was he not as comfortable and carefree as before?

Zhao Shisan, Ling Jianxian, and Heavenly Maiden Xi, how did they break into their lives one by one, and how did they disrupt his original rhythm of life?

Maybe it's not people he knows who are disrupting his life, but the changes of the entire continent that are affecting him. The Liansheng Mountain Range was suddenly wiped out, the "village owner" suddenly lost his news, the carriage was suddenly burned, and those things that were originally "unchanged", the most important nodes that had formed his habits for three years were suddenly pulled away, how could he not mess up his mood and rhythm?

Ling'er leaned beside Duan Jiu and said, "Brother, when you heal your injuries, let's buy a new carriage and take Ling'er on an adventure together." ”

Duan Jiu didn't say anything, he might not be able to do it. Because, everything has changed. If he didn't solve the problem of the theft of the Five Sources Sutra, he would no longer be able to wear the white mask and hurry. If he didn't understand why Li Hao hated himself, he couldn't sleep all day. I didn't know what happened to the "village master", so he couldn't bear the orders anymore.

Seeing that Duan Jiu didn't answer, and didn't even agree to his dearest sister's request, Heavenly Maiden Xi knew that Duan Jiu had already made up his mind to get rid of all the things involved. Then he said: "Duan Gongzi, after the injury on your chest is fine, let's go to Yujie City first." ”

Duan Jiu looked at Heavenly Maiden Xi, and an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart. Previously, he was going to Tiandu City, in order to wait for the rabbit, and squatted for the people of the Moon Tower, trying to find out who instructed the Moon Tower to frame him. For example, today, Nu Xi proposed to go to Yujie City first, that is, to inquire about Li Hao, so that Duan Jiu could feel at ease first. Heavenly Maiden Xi: This is ......

Do you care about me?

"Okay, brother, Ling'er is going to Yujie City. My brother still owes Ling'er a few big meals, and my brother can't break his promise. Ling'er exclaimed happily.

"Let's go to Yujie City tomorrow. Duan Jiu finally spoke.

Tomorrow?

Heavenly Maiden Xi and Ling'er were both shocked, and Heavenly Maiden Xi said: "Duan Gongzi, you hurt ......"

Duan Jiu said lightly: "It's not in the way, it's just a small injury." ”

Duan Jiu originally planned to set off from Tiandu City tomorrow, because the enemy didn't know when he would attack His Highness Zhonghe, although because the first four halls were a lesson from the past, the Zhonghe Hall increased the manpower to guard the "Earthwork Sutra", and the people of Mochizuki Tower couldn't steal it for a while, but if Mochizuki Tower wanted to get it, they wouldn't stop if they didn't steal the Five Sources Sutra. Now if he wants to be distracted by the affairs of Yujie City, it is actually very unwise.

Ling'er said angrily: "No, Grandpa Liu has already said that my brother can't use the control technique so willfully until the wound is completely healed." ”

Duan Jiu touched Ling'er's head and chuckled: "Brother just went to Yujie City to relax, listen to other people's stories, and will never use the control technique, what's more, if Ling'er doesn't let me use it, where can my brother use it?"

Ling'er felt much more relieved when she heard this, tilted her head and said, raised her little thumb and said, "Pull the hook." ”

"Good. ”
