Chapter 12: Abandonment
Yun Huang asked, "Why does the master smell of blood?" As he spoke, he pulled Shen Ji's sleeve and saw that his clothes were torn in many places, stained with many spots of blood, and it was obvious that he had gone through a fight.
She got up in a hurry, but she wanted to find out, but she was pulled by Shen Ji, he pressed her back to the bed, covered her eyes with his broad palm, and said, "Yunhuang, don't look." ”
Yun Huang took his hand away, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Master, I'm not afraid." ”
Yes, she has seen such a scene since she was a child, how can she be afraid, Shen Ji finally let go.
Yun Huang got out of bed, didn't even wear Luo socks, and walked out barefoot, on the ground, the corpses were in a mess, blood stained most of the yard, and even the wind smelled bloody.
Those corpses, with different scars on their bodies, all had hideous faces, and their eyes were wide open and they looked at the sky unwillingly.
Shen Ji always followed behind her, for fear that something would happen to her. The blood on the ground was cold, stained on her feet, stained on her skirt, slimy, and cold to her heart, as if a sharp blade had pierced her heart.
Blades, Blood, Fighting......
What picture flashed in her mind in a hurry, she bent her legs and stumbled, Shen Ji immediately supported her from behind, Yun Huang's nose was astringent, and tears slid down.
Shen Ji picked her up, covered her eyes again and said
"Don't watch it, we won't watch it."
"They're all bad guys, they're all here to kill us, aren't they?" Yun Huang asked.
"Yes, they're all bad people." Shen Ji felt that his palms were already wet, and he also felt that the body of the person in his arms was trembling slightly, and even his body was a little cold, so he could only try his best to comfort her.
Yun Huang continued: "So they deserve to die, so I shouldn't feel sorry for them, right?" ”
Shen Ji hugged her and walked back: "No, they are just ordered by people, and the real fierce people are not them." ”
"But they still die, because if they don't die, it's us, right?"
Shen Ji sighed and replied, "Yes." ”
Yun Huang turned his head, leaned on Shen Ji's body, and hugged Shen Ji tightly with his hand, and after glancing at the wreckage, he immediately turned his eyes and cried in a low voice.
Shen Ji didn't know, she cried, not because she was afraid, but because she was worried about her master.
Shen Ji put her back on the bed, carefully stroked her back, and said with relief: "It's okay, Yun Huang is not afraid." "I thought about it and said
"You wait for the master, I'll go get clean water and help you wash the stains on your feet." Yun Huang nodded, but pulled his sleeve again, Shen Ji smiled lightly, "Master will be back soon, don't be afraid." Yun Huangcai was reluctant to let go.
There was only one candle lit in the house, which was lit by Shen Ji when he came in a hurry before, and it was about to burn out at the moment, the flames were very small, the room seemed a little dim, the door was still open, the cold wind gusted, and the curtain fluttered, and the smell of blood in the courtyard came in one after another, Yun Huang sat on the bed alone, and was faintly scared in his heart
。
Some memories of her childhood came to her mind, and she couldn't remember how long it was, but every time she dreamed back at midnight, the sounds of those fights and cries kept coming. She hugged her knees tightly, her body trembling slightly, tears rolling down her eyes, and her eyelashes were already wet.
Life and death are originally a thin line. She already knew, didn't she?
But when she faced it again, she still couldn't do it calmly, she knew that her master was once a big man in the world, and if she followed him, she would encounter something more cruel than this in the future.
However, in the world, apart from him, who else can she rely on and trust?
Shen Ji came back soon, he put the basin away, squatted in front of the bed, held her face, and helped her wipe away her tears: "Isn't the master here, crying for what, it's really ugly." Yun Huang sniffed, and sure enough, he didn't cry anymore.
Shen Ji held up her feet with the palm of his hand and put them in the water, and before the tips of his toes touched the surface of the water, he asked, "Is it hot?" As soon as her feet touched the water, the blood slumped away like ink.
Seeing Yun Huang shaking his head, he was relieved to hold her feet with one hand, and picked up water with the other hand to carefully wash away the blood stains. A basin of water quickly turned blood red, Shen Ji dried her with a towel and put it on the bed, then looked at the bloodstained skirt and said, "The clothes are also dirty, let's change them." ”
"Hmm." Yun Huang responded shallowly, and heard Shen Ji say, "You sit, the master will go and find clothes for you." Then he took the water out, and after a while he came in again, and he dried his hands, and then turned to rummage through the cupboard, and pulled out a light blue dress, and went to the couch and handed it to her.
Yun Huang took it and saw Shen Ji standing still, his face turned red, he turned his head away, and said shyly: "Master turned around." Only then did Shen Ji react, Yun Huang had grown up, he was no longer a child, and he also had the thoughts of his daughter's family. He smiled and turned away: "What are you shy about in front of the master?" ”
Yun Huang quickly changed his clothes. Shen Ji turned his head and said, "It's about to dawn, and Chu Xun's side is estimated to have dealt with it almost, don't think about it, just sleep for a while." ”
Yun Huang said: "Master also go back to rest." ”
Shen Ji asked, "Aren't you afraid?" Yun Huang shook his head, but his eyes flickered. Shen Ji smiled: "I'll leave when you fall asleep." ”
"Hmm." She pulled Shen Ji's hand over and pillowed it under her face, and closed her eyes in peace.
He stayed with her like this for more than an hour, until he heard that Yun Huang was breathing evenly and fell asleep, so he carefully withdrew his hand and walked out of the house lightly.
The night had faded, and now the sky was full of red clouds, and the sun was about to rise.
The corpses in the yard had been almost cleaned up, long blood stains had been dragged out on the ground, the corpses had been stacked haphazardly on the car, covered with thatch, and the treatment was very rough, and there were blood dripping down, like garbage thrown away.
When a killer fails a mission and becomes worthless, no one will ask who their names are, where they come from, and where their bones are buried. This world is so cruel, the law of the jungle has never been chosen.
Shen Ji looked at the blood stains all over the ground, and his heart was stunned.
The corpse was quickly transported out, the blood stains on the ground were also washed away, the wet ground, like a rain, fleeting, not even a trace was left, the smell of blood in the air was obviously a lot lighter, and the next person also specially brought a few pots of fresh orchids to put them in the yard, and the last traces were also erased. Such bright colors, no matter how you look at it, are full of life, if he hadn't witnessed it a few hours ago, I'm afraid he wouldn't have believed that there had been a fight here.
Chu Xun didn't come over until noon, obviously Chengye's side had already been dealt with, he changed into clean clothes, there was no blood on his clothes, and he turned back into the son who was as graceful as jade.
Seeing Shen Ji, he bowed and asked, "Mr. didn't sleep all night last night, why don't you sleep for a while." ”
Shen Ji asked rhetorically: "Your other guest, is fine." ”
"There is Mr. Lao's trouble, and there is no danger. Now he has left Yicheng. ”
"I don't know how much hatred that person has with him, he has dispatched so many killers, and your guest is not ordinary when he thinks about it."
Chu Xun moved the corners of his mouth, and finally just said, "Is Miss Yun okay?" ”
"I'm a little frightened, and I'm already asleep." After Shen Ji finished speaking, he suddenly twisted his eyebrows and said, "Shen wants to ask Gongzi Chu for a favor." ”
Chu Xun saw his solemn expression, and hurriedly said, "Sir, please speak." ”
"Shen Ji has lived for most of his life, and after countless lives and deaths, he has long had nothing to ask for, and the only concern is the cloud wilderness. I begged Gongzi Chu to protect her thoroughly. Speaking of the back, he actually bowed his knees, as if he was kneeling.
Chu Xun couldn't withstand such a big gift, so he hurriedly supported him and said: "What did Mr. say, now that she is in my house, I will naturally protect her." ”
Shen Ji accentuated his tone, "What I'm talking about is in the future." ”
"Chu Xun didn't understand what Mr. meant." He obviously didn't want to have anything to do with Shen Ji, after this time, he returned that favor, and in the future, he would never have an affair with Yin Xia again.
Shen Ji's eyes were full of sadness, he squinted slightly, and there were already some slight wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, "As you can see, Shen Ji is alone now, my only relative in the clouds, no matter what the situation is, I don't want her to be implicated." As long as your 'friend' doesn't know about her existence, as long as you can keep her from following me, you can protect her. ”
Chu Xun also knew that he loved his disciples, but he had no reason to take in a woman who had nothing to do with him, not to mention that he and Shen Ji had no friendship. Chu Xun sat down and was embarrassed: "I'm afraid that Chu Xun doesn't have such ability." ”
Shen Ji's tone was resolute: "I'm not asking for a son. ”
Chu Xun raised his eyes, a little surprised: "Sir, why do you think that I will definitely respond to this matter?" ”
Shen Ji sat down: "Although I don't have a deep relationship with Gongzi, I can also see that Gongzi is a righteous gentleman, valuing love and righteousness, and I won't see death or save him, this is one of them; Second, Wuyike also has some power in the rivers and lakes, and it is not difficult to protect a woman; Third," he stared, paused slightly, and lowered his voice and said, "Don't hide it, Yun Huang is a member of the Wu Clan, and the fate of the Wu Clan and the Spirit Clan is similar, so you can't sit idly by." ”
Hearing this last sentence, Chu Xun's eyebrows tightened, and he was surprised not only that Yun Huang was a member of the Wu Clan, but also that Shen Ji actually knew that he was a member of the Spirit Clan! He stood up on the handrail and asked incredulously, "How does the Sir know ......?" and added, "Isn't the Wu clan already extinct?" ”
Shen Ji replied: "When I first saw Gongzi, I felt that Gongzi's martial arts were weird, like a ghost, and his light skills were not so good, and although your subordinates were not as good as you, they were also weird. ”
Chu Xun asked, "What do you want to do?" Now that my spirit clan is also surviving, I can't take care of my own safety, and this child may not be safe if I am afraid. ”
Shen Ji said: "She doesn't have to stay in Yicheng, you just need to help me send her to Mr. Yu in Junyi Mountain, Yazhou." ”
Chu Xun's brows tightened even more, "In the past, the crown prince Fu Yu Xinyu old man? ”
"Yes."
Chu Xun suddenly had an epiphany, "I finally know why they asked me to stop you here, because this is the only way to go to Yazhou, and they have already calculated that you will definitely go to Yazhou." "In the world, if Shen Ji still has someone who can make Shen Ji fully trust, I'm afraid only Yu Xin.
Shen Ji nodded: "I will personally repair the book for you to bring, and Yu Xin will understand when he sees it." He paused, "You won't tell who they are, but that's okay, I think I've guessed it." ”
"I can promise you, but you know Miss Yun's temper better than me, even if I agree, she may not be willing to leave."
"You don't have to worry about this, I can convince her."
