CHAPTER XLIII
When Zephyr was ready to calm the pain in his heart with inhuman torture, he didn't expect that as soon as the door closed, Haruka appeared in front of him with food and medicine, and helped him clean up the inside and outside of the residence. Although the degree of damage to the house cannot be changed, the comfort level has been improved by more than one notch.
Such a strange care, Zephyr naturally refused to accept it. But he was wounded, but he couldn't escape. Besides, since Chunxiang took this task, she made up her mind to complete the circle, so she cried, made trouble, and hanged herself, but Fan Xifeng refused to eat well and take medicine well, so she sat there and cried quietly, as if something had happened.
A man like Zephyr, it is not a problem for one person to beat ten bandits, but when he encounters this kind of little girl who will cry when he speaks loudly, he can only admit it in the end and obediently raise her illness.
Now, when Zhao Liusi has sieved the people outside one by one, it is finally time for him to recover.
"Didn't you say that you didn't want to take medicine before? How did you persuade her? Zhao Liusi followed Chunxiang down the secret room, and then remembered the tricky trouble that she had thrown to her before.
Chunxiang smiled when she heard this, revealing two shallow small pear vortices, "The slave has her own way." ”
"Okay. Anyway, you've helped me solve a big problem, and I deserve it. Zhao Liusi said without hesitation, "Come back later, and ask Mother Park to give you twenty taels of silver." ”
"So much." Haruka showed a surprised expression, and then smiled with a smile, "There is such a good thing, Miss will call me next time." ”
She has been thinking about Zhao Liusi for a long time, and she also knows that the most important thing Zhao Liusi lacks is money, and she is generous, and it is best not to be careful not to be careful when she is rewarded, so she happily agreed.
"Don't worry, you're indispensable." Zhao Liusi saw that after being trained for a long time, Chunxiang's temperament became much more lively, and she felt more and more comfortable getting along, thinking that it would be great if the west wind could be like this in the future.
It's just that her dream is not over yet, and when she finally walked to the edge of the tunnel, she was poured through a basin of cold water by the west wind.
Zephyr was chopping wood in the moonlight with his back to the entrance, and when he saw the strength of his arms, he knew that the wound was almost healed. However, when he heard the footsteps, he didn't look back, but said in a very impatient tone, "Didn't I say that you are not allowed to come, what are you still doing!" ”
It seems that this temper has not improved, Zhao Liusi was puzzled, turned his head to look at Chunxiang, but saw that Chunxiang seemed to have been used to everything, and said with a smile, "I promised you yesterday that you would not come today, but yesterday was yesterday, and yesterday's today has passed, and I didn't say that I won't come back tomorrow." ”
"You!" Zefeng was angry, and the firewood and firewood stacks under his hands were cut in half, and the sawdust was splashed, but none of them splashed on Haruka's side.
And with such a terrifying anger, Haruka didn't seem to be afraid, and her voice was still soft when she spoke to the west wind, "Oh, what are you doing with such an atmosphere, I'm not the only one who came to see you today." ”
"Who else?" Xifeng said sneeringly, turning around with an axe, and when he saw Zhao Liusi, his body was a little stiff.
Surprise, anger, guilt, forbearance, all kinds of expressions flashed from Xifeng's face, and when he saw Zhao Liusi, he subconsciously pressed his injured arm, stopped his chest, and did his best to be indifferent, "Second Miss is here, what are you doing?" ”
"This is my place, what do you say I'm here for." Zhao Liusi said with a smile.
Zephyr's expression showed obvious confusion.
"Do you think that it was Haruka's personal work to save you?" Zhao Liusi looked at the performance of this stupid big man, thought of a possibility, and asked the fastest, but found that Xifeng's face tightened, and then he was embarrassed.
Well, it seems, this stupid kid is really going to be wrong.
Seeing his cramped appearance, Zhao Liusi didn't take the opportunity to chase and fight, but he also explained the reason, "She took care of you because it was my order." ”
"She," Zephyr said to her, and never said a word again.
The three people present all understood what Zephyr had misunderstood.
Men are all cheap bones, you coax him, hold him, he thinks you have a plan for him, and when you don't care about him, he finds that he is nothing, and then he knows your preciousness.
Chunxiang took care of Xifeng just to complete Zhao Liusi's task. But Zephyr didn't know it before, and suddenly saw such a snail girl falling from the sky, persuading him to eat and feed him medicine, no matter how he cursed, he refused to leave, he said disgust, but in his heart I am afraid that he has unconsciously had some meaning.
Zhao Liusi didn't know if he had any thoughts about Chunxiang before this, but at this moment, looking at his tower-like figure, Zhao Liusi immediately blocked in front of Chunxiang, "She didn't deceive you, nor did she try to misunderstand you, if she did, it was definitely not her problem." ”
She didn't know what the consequences of this wrong cause would be, but she didn't want her people to be harmed.
The anger of a practicing family is not something that a weak little maid can accept.
Who knows how high this man's self-esteem is?
"I know." Xifeng said stiffly, the reaction made Zhao Liusi very satisfied, he glanced at Chunxiang, then turned his head, put on a proud posture and refused, "Don't put gold on your face, I don't know what you mean by mistake at all!" ”
"Okay." Another dead duck with a hard mouth, Zhao Liusi thought in his heart, but this person's character is better than she expected, and it is always a good thing.
If Zephyr were like some of the straight men she saw who felt that they had lost face in front of women and had to get it back, the two of them would be in danger today.
Zhao Liusi felt how reckless it was to have only herself and Chunxiang coming, and she hurriedly went straight to the point, "Since these unimportant things have been said, everyone can talk about private matters openly and honestly." ”
"What a private matter." The west wind suddenly became vigilant.
"Liu Sheng is not dead." Zhao Liusi thought about it for a while and directly threw a bombshell.
For this kind of straight man with a brain comparable to granite, it seems to be a bit wasted to talk to them and talk about everything. Unless it is a good temper and patience like Chunxiang, he can turn hundreds of steels into finger twisting softness, Zhao Liusi does not have that mood, nor does he have that energy.
Zephyr didn't speak, he stood there stiffly, as if he hadn't heard anything.
But Zhao Liusi knew that the lack of reaction did not mean that he didn't care, in fact, the news was too impactful, and his brain was down for a while, and he forgot to command his physical body to react relatively.
"You, he ......" It took a long time for Zephyr to come back to his senses, barely opening his mouth, but unable to spit out meaningful sentences.
"I'm sure the news is true, he's really not dead. In fact, he is not missing either. Zhao Liusi comforted him and said, "That day, he and I fell off the cliff, and he was rescued before me, although he was seriously injured, but his life was not in danger." ”
"If the master hadn't died, what would I be in now? What is all this that I've been through? Zephyr muttered to himself, his voice was small, but Zhao Liusi could hear it clearly.
She could feel the dazedness and loss of the west wind.
Since the news of Liu Sheng's fall off the cliff came, Xifeng has been blaming himself. What he said that day was just the last straw that broke the camel's back, he had already had the will to die, and that was just an opportunity.
Even if he was finally rescued, he had been deliberately making himself suffer, trying to atone for his sins with physical pain.
But who knows, it's all fake?
"I know your doubts, I'm sorry I hurt you before, I know my apology is meaningless, but even if I do it again, I will do the same." Zhao Liusi looked at the west wind and said quickly, "Because otherwise, I can't verify your loyalty to him, and I can't judge whether I should say these words to you today?" ”
Zhao Liusi understood Zephyr's confused eyes, and before he organized the language outburst, he took the lead in saying the answers to all of Zephyr's doubts, causing Zephyr to finally come back to his senses, but he couldn't ask anything except nodding.
He opened his mouth, but closed in vain. Seeing this, Zhao Liusi showed a smile, looked at him and said quickly, "But the news I told you is outdated, although he is now injured, he is still in danger and needs me to rescue him." ”
"What can I do?" All the anger, suffocation, incomprehension, and confusion, after finally hearing Zhao Liusi's words, finally converged into only this one sentence.
is really worthy of being taught by Liu Sheng, and this style of acting is really the same as Liu Sheng. Zhao Liusi nodded in his heart, and then told him about Liu Sheng's fake death, and then said, "My biggest shortcoming now is that I don't have my own power in my hands. If you are willing to help me, while Yan Ran is not suspicious of me now, we should be able to catch him, take him hostage, and ask about Liu Sheng's whereabouts. ”
"It's a little too risky." After thinking for a while, Zephyr shook his head unconsciously, "Liu Ye has a secret guard called the Night Stalker, who is responsible for guarding his safety. At the beginning, it was only the first team that was escorted, and we also had the second and third teams, which completely prevented people from conducting search and rescue first. ”
"Can you make sure they're all trustworthy?" Zhao Liusi is not optimistic about this plan.
"We are all brothers who have died." The west wind was full of words, and his cheeks were flushed, as if he didn't trust the night owl just didn't trust him.
"So what, people are separated from their bellies, you can only guarantee your loyalty, but you can't guarantee the loyalty of others." Zhao Liusi shook his head and looked directly into his eyes, "If everyone can trust it, how can Liu Sheng's route home be exposed?" ”
"This," an embarrassed expression appeared on the man's face, he shook his head, and finally closed his mouth and silently accepted the reality, "Then the two of us." ”
"Well, you just have to get ready." Zhao Liusi nodded, "I will ask Chunxiang to bring you clothes in disguise, Xifeng is still recuperating from his injuries these days, but I have a new mute groom." ”
