Chapter 13: Scarlet Cherry Blossoms

I collapsed on the spot, but my body was not painful.

"Woo......"

I heard someone moaning and opened my eyes.

"Ahh

The Shiling man fell in front of me. In an instant, Shi Lingren limped out from behind me and quickly pushed me away.

He tried to stand up on his legs, but his body did not obey him, and he was able to move forward with great difficulty.

Shi Lingren's face was dripping with blood.

He just protected me? -- In the midst of the confusion, I was only aware of this fact.

"Iβ€”I'm fine......"

"Quick...... Run......

Shi Lingren pressed his forehead and said hoarsely. That being said, how could I have abandoned him?

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Leave me alone! Hurry up and escape! ”

The Shiling man roared. I subconsciously stood up.

"Run! Idiot! ”

Shi Ling roared again. At this time, I still didn't know what to do.

"But ......"

"Anyway, you run away!"

Driven by the momentum of the Shiling people, I had no choice but to run towards the door.

However, a dark shadow was waiting for me at the door.

Boom! My shoulder was pushed hard by the black shadow, and the whole person flew into the corner. When you touch your hand, it's slippery to your hand.

The shadow slowly approached me.

I wanted to escape, but my back was already close to the wall, and there was no way back. Unable to exert force, the wall behind him is covered with moss.

The air in the tunnels seems to be even wetter than outside.

The shadow raised the mop handle again. The only thing I could do was cranky thinking, clenching my fists in front of my chest.

It's dead.

Suddenly, something swooped down on the shadow.

Two dark shadows fell in response.

Pound! Pound! There was the sound of a fight in my ears.

I had no choice but to sit there and watch.

Suddenly, one of the dark shadows stood up.

"Run!"

What a familiar sound...... It's Shiling people! It turned out that he was fine.

"Get down!"

The strange female voice spoke again. I didn't realize it for a while, but Shi Lingren was quick to see and instantly hugged my head and fell to the ground.

With a thud, the mop handle swept over both of our heads, only to hit the wall and send a puff of smoke.

Shi Ling pulled me, who was still in the chaos, and rushed out the door in one breath.

"Drink!"

The dark shadow roared, holding the mop handle high in a hurry; Shi Ling slammed the door slammed shut. There was a dull sound of "pound".

Shi Ling immediately rolled up his shirt and wrapped it around the doorknob.

Kacha, Kacha.

Knock, knock.

There was a haunting knock on the door from the opposite side, and the sound of desperately turning the doorknob.

Suddenly, the sound stopped abruptly. Did he give up? Just as I was thinking so......

Pound!

There was another loud bang, and the man was banging on the door from the inside of the room.

I was shaking with fear. The crack in the door was pried open more and more, and a hand wearing work gloves slowly poked out from the crack in the door.

I was grabbed by the stone man's arm again. I can't even scream now.

"Run!"

I was dragged all the way out by the Shiling people.

On the way, he was hit in the cheek and arm several times by the branches of the cherry blossom trees that bounced off, leaving blood stains.

But unbelievably I didn't feel any pain. Now I just care about rushing out desperately under the guidance of Shiling people!

I can't remember exactly where I was running or how long I was running. Just sitting on the ground and breathing is breathless.

Sweat drips from his forehead: his heart beats fast and violently, lapping against the inside of his chest. In fact, we have only advanced a few intersections, and theoretically our physical strength should not be consumed so quickly, but the emotions of the two of us are too tense to cause this inexplicable feeling of fatigue.

"It hurts......!"

Shi Ling shouted as he pressed his forehead. The young man with a serious expression, still with his back straight, did not dare to relax, and continued to guard, keeping an eye out for any disturbances around him, and reminding me to flee if necessary.

"Are you alright?"

I remembered that Shi Lingren had been hit by the handle of the mop just now, and I quickly raised my concern.

"It's fine."

Shi Ling nodded, but gritted his teeth and twisted his face.

"Let me see."

I walked around to the front of the Shiling man to inspect his injuries.

Shi Ling let go of his hand and showed the wound. On the top of the right eyebrow, there is a three-centimeter-long swell.

The wound was open, and even though the blood had begun to clot, it was definitely not a minor injury.

I took out my handkerchief and soothed the wound of the Shiling man.

"It's okay, I'll do it myself."

Shi Lingren snatched the handkerchief from me in a panic and pressed the wound himself.

Bean-sized tears rolled down my cheeks in an instant.

Odd? Why do I cry -- when I think about it, the tears are even more uncontrollable.

Why? Why do I cry?

"Are you scared?"

Shi Lingren's palm quietly rested on my shoulder.

It's so warmβ€”the tense nerves suddenly relaxed.

- yes, I'm scared.

When the black shadow holding up the handle of the mop stood in front of me, I thought I was dead.

I've never had such a horrible experience. Thanks to the help of the Shi Ling people, a small life can be saved.

I nodded slightly, grabbed Shi Lingren's shirt and cried loudly.

Shi Lingren didn't say a word, just quietly stayed by my side.

I've never cried in front of someone like this.

After the death of his sister, he made up his mind not to cry anymore. However, he cried twice in a row in front of Shi Lingren.

Why would you open your heart to this person who is both cold and awkward? This is something that even I find incredible.

"I'm sorry ......"

I said after crying a lot, I wiped my tears with my palms.

Shi Ling didn't answer, which made me feel even more ashamed.

"Let me see the wound one more time."

I forcibly removed the handkerchief from the stubborn Shiling man's forehead and examined the wound on his forehead.

The bleeding had completely stopped, and I didn't notice anything wrong with my agitation.

"You'd better see a doctor."

"I'm fine."

Shi Ling still did not change his rough and rude attitude.

"What's wrong? A forehead injury is not a trivial matter, but what if the injury worsens? ”

"I want your mother-in-law and mother-in-law...... It hurts! ”

Shi Ling shouted pain again. It seems that the pain is invading the Shiling people one after another.

This is the injury that Shi Ling suffered to protect me. Then I remembered that I hadn't thanked Shi Ling yet.

"Just now...... Thank you for saving me. ”

"If you want to thank you, go thank that ghost."

"Female ghosts?"

I didn't understand what Shi Ling meant, so I tilted my head.

"It was the female voice who warned us. If it weren't for her help, your brains would have been flowing through the secret passages of that chamber by now. ”

That's when I heard a girl yelling "danger".

"Is that the voice of a female ghost?"

"That's right, she's always behind you, guarding you."

"Really?"

I looked around, but still didn't see any trace.

"Believe it or not."

"Female Ghost ......"

If it had been yesterday, I might not have believed the Shiling people. However, this is no longer the case.

- Female ghost, is it Mu Tongtong? What kind of mood do you still have when you look at me in search of the truth? What is she thinking, what is she trying to do?

"If only I could see it. I envy you......"

Tears glistened again in my misty eyes.

"You, you two, what are you doing here!"

A man in a gray and white lab coat walked into our sight.

His cheeks were thin and wrinkled; The nose and cheeks are red, and the skin is a little dark. He looks like a typical alcoholic person.

I don't know his name, but I've seen him several times on campus.

He was the "knife" of the university's hospital hospital, and he was as famous for his knife skills as his addiction to alcohol.

The university hospital of Capital University has a long history, it was originally established during the ten years of turmoil, at that time it was a hospital mainly for the treatment of trauma, and there were often two factions after fighting, and hundreds of people were sent in bloodily, of course, there is no longer this kind of unique research, students just look at headaches and brain fever or something.

Because they can get timely funding from the Ministry of Education, and they often prescribe tonic medicine to those old cadres, or check and treat prostatitis or something, basically no one comes here to see a surgeon, and whoever you want to do major surgery will go to the school hospital for treatment.

This is not a bitter "knife", it is rumored that he used to be a rising star in a medical school, but he was fired because of a medical accident after drinking, and he relied on his father's relationship to get a salary here. After all, there is no market for what he has learned here, or he has given up on himself, and his speech has become more and more scathing, and I have heard that many female students were almost scolded and cried by this uncle when they saw a doctor, and I don't know if it is true or false.

Although the school hospital is on the other side of the cherry blossom forest, the current situation makes me vigilant.

"I'm sorry, we were coming from the back building, and we accidentally tripped and fell, and Shen is giving me emergency treatment."

Although he was caught red-handed, Shi Lingren's expression was still as steady as Mount Tai.

"What are you doing there?"

The sound of "a knife" and "wine" passing through the battlefield is quite harsh, like the chirping of cicadas.

"To tell you the truth, we want to start a club in the new semester, and we still lack an activity room, so we want to try our luck with the dean of students."

Shi Lingren gushed out a bunch of reasons endlessly, which really made people wonder if he had thought about it in advance, anyway, the teaching director Zuo Bosheng has a request for people, this black pot is easy to carry.

The "knife" doctor didn't seem to suspect Shi Lingren's big lie, but only frowned two thick eyebrows, putting on an unbearable look.

"Please, Dean Ma." Shi Ling lowered his head.

"I'm just the vice president." "A knife" softened his tone, "You seem to be injured?" Do you want to bandage the following? ”

Is social engineering really fun? I didn't know until now.

"This little injury is not necessary, my girlfriend and I are going home, thank you for your help."

"Young people should focus on their studies and stop doing stupid things like adventures and making their families scared." It turned out that he still couldn't hide it. I just discovered that this recognized drunken cat has a surprisingly sharp eye.

"Is there really a ghost there?"

Shi Lingren said half-jokingly with his teeth and claws.

"No, it's not...... It's just that it's very old, and there is a civil air defense tunnel of the * era, which will be demolished next month......"

"I see, I see."

Shi Lingren was about to walk out of the forest when he suddenly stopped and looked back at Vice Dean Ma.

"Excuse me, is there an evacuation ladder in the civil air defense tunnel there?"

"Who knows. It's deserted, so I haven't been there once. ”

Shi Ling thanked him again, and we walked out of the forest.
