Chapter XXXVIII
Zhuo Haoxuan pretended to be relaxed and said: "It's okay, it's just a small injury, it's okay." You don't have to worry. ”
Ling Yuxin still insisted, "Let me help you bandage it first." ”
"No, it's really fine, it's better to get out of here quickly." Zhuo Haoxuan also insisted.
"But ......" Ling Yuxin choked up a little, "Zhuo Gongzi, we met in Pingshui, but you sacrificed your life to save each other, I Ling Yuxin wrote down this kindness, I will definitely repay Gongzi for saving his life when he has the opportunity one day." ”
Zhuo Haoxuan stared at Ling Yuxin, his eyes gradually deepened, "Can I call you Xin'er?" ”
Ling Yuxin was slightly stunned for a moment, although she was deeply surprised when she heard this, she still nodded after all.
Zhuo Haoxuan smiled gently, "Xin'er, I don't need you to repay me anything, I just hope that you can recover your memory as soon as possible, and I will do my best to protect you, and I will never let you be hurt again." ”
Ling Yuxin glared at Zhuo Haoxuan with a blank and surprised expression, "Young Master Zhuo, you ......"
"Okay, we can't delay any longer," Zhuo Haoxuan interrupted Ling Yuxin, "If they turn back and find here, then we can't leave if we want to, so let's get out of here first." After speaking, he gently opened the door a crack, looked out of the door for a moment, and after making sure that there was no one, he quickly opened half of the door, then grabbed Ling Yuxin's arm and walked out quickly, and when he arrived outside the door, he closed the door again.
Although Ling Yuxin was full of doubts after listening to Zhuo Haoxuan's words, she also knew that getting out of danger as soon as possible was the top priority at this moment, so she had to put down the doubts in her heart for the time being, and try her best to cooperate with Zhuo Haoxuan to leave this place together.
But when Zhuo Haoxuan closed the door again, Ling Yuxin suddenly remembered the middle-aged man who was about to go out, probably the owner of this family, who was still lying on the ground, and couldn't help asking, "What about that person?" ”
Zhuo Haoxuan glanced at Ling Yuxin deeply, "He's fine, he'll wake up on his own in two hours." ”
"Oh." Ling Yuxin's heart was a little relieved, although he was pulled by Zhuo Haoxuan and followed him all the way, but looking at the wound on his back shoulder that was still bleeding, he couldn't help but frown more and more.
Zhuo Haoxuan expected that the last sound of horses' hooves must have been the arrival of the Imperial Forest Army, but he didn't know which battalion of guards arrived first, but since the Imperial Forest Army had already tracked the black-clothed masked man, it must be not so easy for the black-clothed masked man to cross the Royal Forest Army that had been following them and turn back the same way, most of them would choose other ways to bypass the Royal Forest Army and then turn back to find the two of them, so it should be safest to follow the route of the Royal Forest Army to track the whereabouts of the black-clothed masked man.
A group of black-clothed masked men with swords were already eye-catching, coupled with the huge momentum of the Royal Forest Army tracking the black-clothed masked people, the crowd everywhere they passed avoided them, and there must have been a lot of discussion afterwards, so it was not difficult for him to follow all the way, but for the sake of safety, he still tried to avoid crowded places and walked along the street in a low-key manner.
After passing a few streets, he saw Xia Huaizhong, Li Qingshan and Bai Zhu, who were looking east and west, and knew at a glance that the three of them must be looking for the two of them.
At this time, Bai Zhu also saw Zhuo Haoxuan and Ling Yuxin who were walking in their direction along the street, and instantly turned his worries into joy, and subconsciously shouted: "Miss! ”
Ling Yuxin had been staring at Zhuo Haoxuan's bleeding wound all the way, so she didn't notice anything else, until she heard Bai Zhu's shout, she followed the reputation, and when she saw Bai Zhu running towards her unharmed, she immediately showed joy.
Li Qingshan and Xia Huaizhong naturally saw Zhuo Haoxuan in the direction where Bai Zhu ran, but they saw that he was pale, although he pulled Ling Yuxin forward, his steps were obviously vain, and the two of them suddenly felt bad and hurriedly ran towards Zhuo Haoxuan.
Zhuo Haoxuan saw that Li Qingshan was obviously coming towards him, and he was busy making a look at him, Li Qingshan instantly understood, immediately deviated from the direction, and ran in front of Ling Yuxin instead.
"Miss, are you alright?"
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Zhu and Xia Huaizhong asked out loud almost at the same time.
Before Zhuo Haoxuan could speak, Ling Yuxin said anxiously: "I'm fine, Zhuo Gongzi is injured and has been bleeding." ”
Bai Zhu was stunned, while Xia Huaizhong and Li Qingshan changed their faces at the same time.
Xia Huaizhong asked urgently: "Master, where are you injured?" ”
Zhuo Haoxuan didn't have time to stop the bleeding and bandage, he was already bleeding too much after walking so many roads, and he felt a little physically exhausted, but his tone was still calm when he spoke, "It's okay, skin trauma, why are you here?" What about the black-clad masked men? ”
Xia Huaizhong immediately replied: "We thought that the four black-clothed masked men were chasing you before, so we kept following them, but after chasing a few streets, they suddenly turned back, so that we were caught between them and the black-clothed masked men chasing us behind us, fortunately, the hussar battalion arrived in time and stopped those black-clothed masked people, so we could take the opportunity to get out, at that time, we speculated that the four black-clothed masked men would suddenly turn back to find you, and we thought that you might be hiding somewhere in the middle, So we have returned to you the way we came. ”
Zhuo Haoxuan glanced at Ling Yuxin and wanted to escort her back to the house in person, but the feeling of being powerless became stronger and stronger, neither wanting her to see her weak appearance, nor being afraid that she would worry, let alone scaring her, so after a slight groan, he said to Xia Huaizhong: "Huaizhong, go find a carriage and send Miss Ling back to the house first." ”
Xia Huaizhong looked at Zhuo Haoxuan's increasingly pale face, and his face showed worry, "But the master is your injury......
"Do as I say." Zhuo Haoxuan's tone was unquestionable.
Xia Huaizhong didn't dare to say more, and when he wanted to turn around to look for the carriage, Ling Yuxin stopped him: "No need, Gongzi Zhuo, your injury is important, let's just go back by ourselves." ”
"Nope." Zhuo Haoxuan insisted, "What if you meet those black-clothed masked people again, I don't worry about you going back by yourself." ”
"But you're injured, and I don't feel at ease if you're alone." Ling Yuxin also insisted.
Zhuo Haoxuan was slightly stunned for a moment, looking at Ling Yuxin's concerned and worried look, a touch of relief gradually appeared in his eyes.
Xia Huaizhong hesitated to look at Zhuo Haoxuan, and then at Ling Yuxin, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
Li Qingshan said in time: "I'll go, I'll go find the carriage, and I'll send Miss Ling home." With that, he immediately turned and went to look for the carriage.
Seeing this, Ling Yuxin immediately said to Zhuo Haoxuan: "Yes, yes, he will send me back, don't worry, his martial arts are very high, he will protect me, you hurry up and go to the doctor to heal, you have shed a lot of blood." ”
Zhuo Haoxuan hesitated for a moment, although he still felt a little uneasy, he still wanted Xia Huaizhong and Li Qingshan to escort her back to the house together, but looking at Ling Yuxin's worried but persistent expression, he finally nodded, "Okay, listen to you." ”
Ling Yuxin smiled with relief, and then asked seriously, "Young Master Zhuo, are you sure that your injury will be fine?" You've bled a lot. ”
Zhuo Haoxuan smiled: "Don't worry, it's really just a skin injury, just rest for a while." ”
Ling Yuxin nodded, "That's good, Gongzi Zhuo, where do you live?" It's inconvenient for me to be with you today, in case I am found or targeted by those black-clothed masked people who follow you to your house again, I am afraid that it will affect you even more, but I will never forget your life-saving grace to me today, and I will definitely come to thank you another day. ”
Zhuo Haoxuan's eyes deepened, revealing an indistinguishable smile, "Are you sure you want to go to where I live?" ”
"Of course," Ling Yuxin replied categorically, "you were injured because of me, how could I not visit you!" ”
"Okay, then I'll let Huai Zhong pick you up and take you to my place, you...... Won't refuse, right? ”
"How come, my Ling Yuxin is a good talker, my home is on Wenchang Street, just go to Ling Mansion and say find me Ling Yuxin, I will definitely visit you." Ling Yuxin said with a serious face.
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhuo Haoxuan's eyes, and everything he saw today appeared in his mind, and he felt more and more that today's Ling Yuxin was like her two years ago, he was very sure that her various behaviors today, what she said, and even the tone and demeanor when she spoke, could never have happened to Xin'er before, he was surprised that the amnesia had made her have such a big change, as if she had become another person, and he was also surprised that after the amnesia, she seemed to bring himself a greater surprise than once, I vaguely feel that she seems to make him full of curiosity now.
The sound of horses' hooves and wheels rolling interrupted Zhuo Haoxuan and Ling Yuxin's conversation and thoughts, and several people immediately followed the sound and saw Li Qingshan driving a carriage slowly coming, followed by another carriage.
Soon, the two carriages came to several people one after the other, and after they both stopped, Li Qingshan quickly jumped down, went around to the back of the carriage he was driving, took out some silver taels and gave them to the coachman in the other carriage, and whispered a few words at the same time, only to see the coachman nodding vigorously, and then took the silver taels and left in a hurry.
After Li Qingshan saw that the coachman was lucky, he also led the other carriage to the front, alongside the previous carriage, and then stepped forward and said to Ling Yuxin and Zhuo Haoxuan: "Miss Ling, son, get in the car." ”
Ling Yuxin nodded, and then hugged her fist at Zhuo Haoxuan and said, "Zhuo Gongzi, there will be a period in the future, you have to hurry up and heal your injuries as soon as possible, remember to come to me." ”
Zhuo Haoxuan saw that Ling Yuxin actually gave a fist salute to himself again, and he couldn't help but feel a little crying and laughing in his heart, and couldn't help but joke: "Xin'er actually has the demeanor of a child of the rivers and lakes." ”
Ling Yuxin was slightly stunned for a moment, but soon smiled and said, "I wish I was really a child of the rivers and lakes, but it's a pity that I don't know martial arts now!" The name doesn't live up to its name. After a pause, he continued, "Zhuo Gongzi, I won't talk to you more, you should hurry up and see the doctor to heal, if I stay with you for a while at this moment, you will be more dangerous." I'll take my leave first, take care. After speaking, he nodded at Zhuo Haoxuan, and got into one of the carriages with Bai Zhu.
This time it was Zhuo Haoxuan's turn to be stunned on the spot, Xia Huaizhong saw that Ling Yuxin had already gotten into the carriage, but Zhuo Haoxuan was still stunned, and couldn't help urging: "Master, hurry up and get in the carriage." ”
Li Qingshan also took advantage of Ling Yuxin's inattention, approached Zhuo Haoxuan and whispered: "Master rest assured, the minister will definitely send Miss Ling back to the Ling Mansion safely." ”
