"Yao!" Fu Yajun shouted heartbreakingly, and then the whole person pounced.

Helian Yao turned around and caught the second crossbow arrow, but the first one was already nailed deep into the woman's back, and the blood burst out, dyeing the feathers of the arrow bright red.

"Yajun, Yajun, you hold on. Someone, catch the assassins! ”

Fu Yajun's hand firmly grasped his clothes, "Ah Yao, Ah Yao, don't leave me, I hurt so much." ”

Helian Yao picked her up and ran to the hospital, stained with blood.

Xue Xue had a terrible dream, and woke up in the middle of the night, sweating all over her face, and her head hurt.

She sat up with her head in her hands, and after thinking about it for a long time, she didn't remember what she dreamed about, but the feeling of fear, disappointment, and grief really blocked her heart, and she almost suffocated.

Lifting the screen, she looked outside, there was a moon tonight, so it was not dark outside, but everything was like a thin veil, dimly lit.

Put your hand on your heart. She gasped as if she had traveled a long way, and the sound echoed through the room, with a certain horror effect, and she thought it was not her own voice.

Quickly getting out of bed, she walked through the long corridor, and when she reached the door, she was called out by the guards who kept vigil, "Who's there?" ”

Xue Mo suddenly woke up, what was she doing?

The guard saw that it was her, and hurriedly said, "Madam, what are you doing here?" ”

Xue Mo rubbed her forehead and shook it, "It's okay, I may have fallen asleep." ”

The guard was a little suspicious, "Then you better go back to your room." ”

"Hmm." Xue Mo agreed, but did not move, and after a while she asked, "Is there any news of the young marshal?" ”

The guard shook his head, "Madam, do you want me to ask?" ”

"No, I'll just ask."

Xue Wei turned back to her room, not knowing why her heart was beating so fast.

The Yin family's mansion was extraordinarily large at night, and it was dark where the electric lights couldn't shine, like a figure shaking.

Xue Xue boldly asked, "Who is there?" ”

Naturally, no one answered, she thought she had seen it wrong, and just wanted to leave, suddenly the sharp weapon similar to a dagger was against her back, and a deep male voice said, "Don't move." ”

Xue Wei's sweat and pores were constricted, and she suppressed her fear and tried to calm herself, "Don't get excited, I'll give you the money if you ask for it." ”

"I ...... Don't want money. The man's voice was choppy, and he looked like he was injured.

Xue Mo suddenly turned around and pinched his wrist, and by the faint light of the wind lamp, her eyes widened in surprise, "Senior, why are you?" ”

"Xue Li......" The man's words were not finished, and his tall body fell forward, pressing right on Xue Li's body.

Xue Mo was about to call someone, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, and she took a lot of effort to get people to the bedroom where her father used to live.

Putting down the tent, she found that the man had several knife wounds, some of which had coagulated, and some of which were still bleeding.

Xue Mo hurriedly went to find scissors, and cut his clothes in three or two clicks, and it was still a little difficult to take them off, and the cloth sticking to the wound needed some strength, and the pain made him moan lowly.

"Senior Zhong Lin, if you hold on, I'll bandage you right away."

Bai Helian Yao, Xue Xu, the eldest lady who does not touch the spring water with ten fingers, even knows some simple bandaging skills, she disinfected his wound, and poured medicinal powder, then bandaged it densely with gauze, after thinking about it, she went to find anti-inflammatory Western medicine for him to take.

After working for most of the day, the sky was already white, and she whispered to Zhong Lin: "Senior, you sleep for a while, I'll clean up." ”

Zhong Lin had fallen into a coma, and Xue Wei wiped the blood with a damp cloth towel as he walked back, wiping everything he could see.

After changing her clothes, she wrapped her bloodstained clothes and the coat she had taken off from Zhong Lin's body in cloth and put them under the bed, wanting to throw them away when she had an opportunity.

At this time, it was very bright. She couldn't sleep either, so she simply got up and freshened up.

As soon as he pulled his hair up, he suddenly heard a commotion outside, and ran in from outside with Xiaoxi.

Xue Wei frowned, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Xi's hair was still frizzy and obviously not combed, "Madam, a team of soldiers is negotiating with the guards, saying that they want to search for assassins." ”

Xue Wei was shocked, "Assassin, come to our house to search for assassins?" Are the guards ornaments? ”

"The guards said the same thing, and they're arguing now."

Xue Wei stood up, "I'll go out and have a look." ”

The soldiers outside don't know which battalion they belong to, but no matter where they are, they are always in charge of Helian Yao, don't they even buy the guards account?

"What's the matter?"

The leader is a regimental deputy, and the subordinates of the head of the third regiment Zhang are not familiar with Xue Xu, but they also know her as a person. Respectfully saluted, the regimental deputy said: "Madam, my subordinates were ordered to arrest the assassin who assassinated the young marshal last night, and chased the blood all the way here. ”

"The young marshal was assassinated?" Xue Wei only heard these words in her mind, and she even lost her demeanor and grabbed the regiment deputy, "Is the young marshal okay?" ”

The regimental deputy was very embarrassed, "Please rest assured, Madame, the young marshal only suffered a few skin injuries, and Mrs. Yajun helped him block an arrow." ”

Hearing that Helian Yao was fine, Xue Wei's heart was put back in his stomach, but Fu Yajun helped him block the arrow, which showed that it was extremely dangerous at that time, this assassin ......

Could this assassin be Senior Zhong Lin?

Xue Ming's face lowered her eyes, and her heart was changing.

She and Zhong Lin met in the playground of Hong Kong Island University, when a ball fell on her and smashed her to the infirmary, and Zhong Lin was the initiator.

Because they were all from the mainland, they quickly became familiar with each other. Although Zhong Lin is a child of a rich family, he is low-key and mysterious, and rarely participates in the gatherings of those rich people.

He likes to read, Xue Xue likes to paint, they often appear on the beach at the foot of the mountain in the morning, they read together and talk about life, and the days are full and happy.

At that time, if Xue Mo hadn't been engaged, and if Zhong Lin hadn't suddenly suspended his studies and left Hong Kong Island, maybe they would have unlimited possibilities.

However, there is never an if.

After a few years, they will see each other again, Xue Wei was in a car accident, and when Helian Yao was assassinated, he appeared in the Yin family with injuries, if all this is a coincidence, it is a liar.

But no matter what, Xue Mo can't hand him over, he has a life-saving grace for her, and she can save him once.

Seeing that Xue Wei had been silent, the deputy of the regiment was a little anxious, "Madam." Let's go in and see, the murderer was injured and we followed the bloodstains to get here, in case he is hiding somewhere in the house, it is also a hidden danger to your safety. ”

Helian Jun is not all loyal Helian Yao. The head of the third regiment Zhang was very good with Helian Yao's second uncle, when Helian Yao took over the army, he didn't make a lot of trouble, Helian Yao's wrist was iron-blooded and ruthless, and he treated him a few times before he obeyed, but now he has a thorn in his head whenever something happens, and he has to make some trouble.

These Helian Yao never said it, Xue Mo also guessed it by listening to their conversation when he was drinking, and now the deputy of the regiment of Commander Zhang wants to search for people, if she doesn't let it, she will make trouble again.

Xue Mo pushed back. "Then please."

The deputy of the regiment did not dare to make a mistake, and ordered the brigade to wait outside, and he only walked in with a few cronies.

Looking at the hall and the room, they naturally couldn't think that the snow would harbor people, the focus was on the garden, and they were afraid that people would hide in flowers and rockeries.

Xue Mo couldn't follow, so she could only go to the study room next room, the people in the gauze tent were still sleeping, and her heart was uneasy.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, and she looked out the window to see that there was blood stains on a green bamboo clump in the window outside her father's bedroom.

The snow is not good. Everything else has been wiped off, but who would have thought that there would be traces on the bamboo leaves?

Xue Wei stood up, holding the cold paperweight in her hand, but her palms were still hot.

The regimental deputy looked up at the window and asked, "Whose room is that?" ”

The servant replied: "Now it is empty and no one lives, and it used to belong to the lady's father, so he went first." ”

The deputy of the regiment waved, "Then please report to Madame, we want to go in and have a look." ”

Xue Xuan's cold sweat dripped down his sideburns, if he saw Zhong Lin as soon as he entered, wouldn't it be all over?

For a moment, she couldn't think of a solution. was in a hurry, and suddenly saw Hu Ma running over with a kitchen knife, and there were blood stains on the kitchen knife.

The regimental deputy touched the gun, and he motioned to his subordinates, and the two young men blocked Hu Ma.

Mama Hu looked ignorant, "Hey, did the guards change shifts today?" You are all fresh faces, hurry up and help me find the big, I killed a chicken and stewed it for my wife, but it flew down with a knife, and I don't know where it went? ”

The deputy of the regiment frowned, and sure enough, he saw chicken feathers on the ground, he looked at the bamboo, and sure enough, there was a big rooster lying with fiery red fur.

Reached out and threw it to Mama Hu, "Is this it?" ”

Hu Ma nodded, "Yes, that's it." For the sake of you helping me find the chicken, young man, I'll leave you a chicken paw at noon. ”

The regiment deputy smiled slightly, and said in his heart that it seems that the guards standing guard here are helping to do some chores all day long, and they are useless.

At this time, his subordinates asked: "Deputy of the regiment, do you still want to go in and see?" ”

He shook his head, "No, it's rooster blood." I think I went somewhere else. It's heavily guarded, and it's probably impossible to get in. ”

They finally withdrew, and Xue Hui finally put a pinched heart back in her stomach, and she walked to the next door in three or two steps, and pushed the door open.

She reached out to lift the gauze tent, but found that the bed was empty, and she was surprised that someone had choked her neck from behind.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Zhong Lin's pale face, and Zhong Lin also let go of her, "Xue Xue is you." ”

"Senior, you hurry back and lie down, don't move."

Xue Wei helped the person back to the bed, she reached out and tried Zhong Lin's forehead, but there was no fever.

"Senior, do you want to drink water?"

Zhong Lin took her hand, "Why don't you ask me anything?" ”

Xue Wei withdrew her hand and looked at him lightly, "Then what did you tell me?" ”

Zhong Lin smiled slowly, as calm and handsome as before, "Xue Li, you haven't changed at all, you are still so sharp." ”

"It's a pity that you can only take advantage of your tongue, in this cannibalistic society, do you think it's useful?"

Xue Wei is aggressive, and the light in her eyes is no longer good.

Zhong Lin slowly put away his smile, "Xue Xu, it was indeed Helian Yao who I assassinated last night, but unfortunately, he escaped by luck." ”

Looking at his dark and calm eyes, Xue Wei was already gritting her teeth with hatred, "Zhong Lin, you are so bold, do you know who I am?" Aren't you afraid that I'll hand you over to Helian Yao? ”

"Snowy. You handed it over just now, and I know that you have to follow him. A few days ago, I left Fahua Temple in a hurry because of our leak, and this time I must take you with me. ”

Xue Wei sneered, "You don't talk big. I'm dying, who are you, and why did you assassinate him? ”

Zhong Lin snorted coldly, "Everyone is punished for thugs like him, and I killed him to seek justice for the thousands of lives he killed in the first battle of Pingshan." ”

It is not the first time that Xue Xue has heard the rumors of Helian Yao's killing of villagers in the Pingshan Battle, she has not paid too much attention to the truth and falsehood, and Helian Yao has never denied it. Now that Zhong Lin said it with a righteous face, she naturally felt that Helian Yao was not a human being as she heard it for the first time, but maybe she was too undisciplined and did not have Zhong Lin's strong hatred.

Autumn-like eyes stared at him, and Xue Mo said, "Senior Zhong Lin, don't say it so righteously and awe-inspiring. If you want to talk about revenge, you wouldn't be so indignant without your relatives here, right? ”

Zhong Lin was surprised by her intelligence, he lowered his head and was silent for a while and said, "There is my family in there." ”

This would explain his assassination, Xue Wei sighed, "Isn't that warlord's hands covered in blood?" Senior Zhong Lin, you haven't told me who you really are? ”

Zhong Lin shook his head, "Not yet, Xue Xu, you come with me, leave Yunzhou, I will tell you everything." ”

Xue Mo just smiled, "Your commitment is too thin, senior, since our story ended a few years ago, don't develop anymore, you Jintan left here at night, you also saw that my family is not safe." ”

Looking at her back, Zhong Lin's eyes slowly turned red, "Xue Wei, are you in love with Helian Yao?" He doesn't deserve it! ”

Xue Wei's back stiffened, and then she looked back and smiled, "Senior, take a good rest." ”

"Xue Li!" Zhong Lin's tone was sad. "He really doesn't deserve it, he was in the church hospital with another woman last night, have you forgotten what you said in college? I'd rather be lonely than serve a husband with others, can you endure this grievance? ”

"You rest, that's my business." After speaking, Xue Wei walked out and gently closed the door.

Zhong Lin's fingers gripped the sheets on the bed tightly, and his face was silent.

As soon as Xue Mo came out of the room, she saw Hu Ma guarding the corridor.

She walked over and gently shook Mama Hu's hand, "Mama Hu, thank you." ”

Mama Hu looked left and right before lowering her voice and said, "Miss, let him go." Certainly not a good person. ”

Xue Wei nodded, "Take him with me when I go out in the evening, Mama Hu, he is not a bad person, he is my college classmate." ”

Although Xue Wei said this, Mama Hu still looked sad, "Miss, it's so easy for you to live a stable life with the young marshal, so don't make any extraneous branches." By the way, don't you have to go and see the young marshal? ”

Naturally, she was worried about him, very worried.

"Let's go."

Mama Hu grabbed her, "I had breakfast first." ”

Xue Mo shook her head, "No need. You help me decorate and take it to the hospital, and he probably won't have time to eat breakfast. ”

Mama Hu agreed to get it, chicken soup, rice porridge, steamed dumplings, and lotus leaf cakes, but she got a full food box.

Xue Xue let Xiao Xi carry it, and slowly climbed into the car by herself.

I don't know if it's because of the hot weather, she feels very stuffy in her chest.

When I entered the door, I saw a sentry in three or five steps, but I didn't need to ask anyone, and I followed the sentry to the ward.

Adjutant Zhang was standing at the door, and when he saw Xue Wei, he hurriedly straightened up, "Madam." ”

"The young marshal is inside?"

"Hmm." Adjutant Zhang nodded, and then added after feeling too dry, "Mrs. Yajun is still unconscious." The young marshal is not easy to leave. ”

"Can I go in?"

Adjutant Zhang hurriedly opened the door for her, "Madame, please." ”

Xue Mo took the food box in Xiaoxi's hand and walked in quietly.

The room is simply furnished, you can see it at a glance, Fu Yajun was lying on the bed with a tube inserted in her nostrils, her face was as white as paper, and He Lianyao fell asleep on the side of the bed.

This picture is very poignant.

Xue Mo bit her lower lip and looked at it for a while, but she didn't wake Helian Yao.

It must have been a night of torment last night before he fell asleep, so let him rest.

Xue Mo took a deep breath, she told herself that it was all expected, but her heart still seemed to be clutched by a large hand, and she almost couldn't breathe in pain.

She didn't want to be sour here anymore, so she turned around and walked out, wanting to get out.

At this moment, Fu Yajun suddenly had difficulty breathing, and her face turned purple, as if she was about to stop breathing at any time.

Helian Yao was awakened, he rang the bell hard, jumped up and went to the doctor.

Because of the sound of the bell ringing the bell, Adjutant Zhang and the others were brought in, everyone was standing at the door, Helian Yao disliked the obstacle, pushed people aside with a pull of his hand, and strode out by himself,

Xue Wei's body slammed into the glass of the door, and the broken glass scratched her hand, and it was immediately sticky.

The food box also fell to the ground, and steamed buns and millet porridge were scattered everywhere.

Before Xue Wei could react, the door was vigorously pushed open from the outside again, and then a group of doctors and nurses ran in, and the leader Helian Yao stepped on it too early, and suddenly the ground was in a mess.

This foot is also like stepping on her heart.

Xue Wei clinged to the wall for fear of being affected again, and when it was safe, she ordered the guard at the door to clean the place, while she stood guard outside the door.

The rescue lasted about an hour before the patient's condition stabilized, and when the doctors had withdrawn, Xue Mo saw Helian Yao's relieved look from the broken door glass, and he stood at the head of the bed, looking at Fu Yajun all the time, just like Xue Wei looked at him.

Adjutant Zhang turned around and saw Xue Wei, and he called out, "Madam." ”

Helian Yao discovered her existence at this time, and looked back at her with bloodshot eyes.

Xue Wei nodded at him, "I heard that something happened to you here, come and take a look." ”

"Hmm." He replied in a deep voice.

Xue Mo waited for a long time and didn't follow, so she suppressed the grievances in her heart and said, "It seems that there is nothing I can help with, I'm leaving." ”

Without waiting for Helian Yao's answer, she turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait." He called out to her.

Xue Wei's back stiffened, but she didn't look back, and she seemed to have something in her throat and said, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Let Adjutant Zhang send you."

"No need, I'm here by car, Adjutant Zhang is busy with other things." Xue Mo looked at her toes as she spoke, she was wearing a pair of white openwork leather shoes, and her feet hurt after standing for so long.

After taking two steps, he said, "Wait." ”

This time, Xue Xue didn't stop, she took a deep breath and raised her head and chest, and her words obviously brought out a small emotion, "What's the matter?" ”

"I'll send you." As the words landed, the man's steps sounded, getting closer and closer to her.

She turned her head suddenly, her black and white eyes were watery and wet, "I said no, I am familiar with the road." There are drivers and guards, or the sky is still daylight, what are you sending me for? ”

She said it fluently, even with a slight smile on her lips.

Helian Yao frowned, "Don't make trouble, go." ”

Xue Mo avoided his large outstretched hand and did not let him touch it.

Helian Yao's spirit was devastated all night, and he didn't have the extra energy to coax her now, so he grabbed her wrist rudely with his big hand, "Put away your eldest lady's temper and go." ”

Xue Xue hissed, it really hurt him.

Helian Yao flipped her hand over. At first glance, the blood stains were frozen in the palm of his hand.

"How?"

Xue Wei frowned, quickly lowered her eyelashes to cover the emotions in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth were hooked with a soft arc, "Accidentally cut." ”

Helian Yao frowned and looked at the broken glass, "Be careful in the future and let the doctor deal with it for you." ”

"No, I'm tired and want to go home."

"How long does it take to disinfect and bandage a wound?" Deal with it first. ”

Xue Wei's temper was very dry, and she shook off his hand vigorously, "I said no, I don't need it, and it's not an injury that can kill people." ”

Helian Yao's brows were furrowed, "Are you sure you want to mess with me?" ”

Xue Wei was very weak, and she rubbed her fingers in her hair vigorously. "I beg you, I'll just go home and deal with such a shallow wound myself, or let the doctor concentrate on taking care of the seriously injured Mrs. Yajun."

Helian Yao looked at her with dark eyes, "Don't make trouble at this time. ”

Xue Mo almost collapsed, she leaned against the wall tiredly, "I'm just a little tired, I didn't sleep well last night." ”

The implication is that she didn't make any trouble.

But the more this happened, the more Helian Yao felt that she was making trouble.

According to her temper, she made her appointment last night, and today she has been here for a long time and hasn't noticed her, so she should make a fuss.

The big hand touched her black hair, and he said, "Xue Wei, you should be sensible." ”

She nodded, smiling, "Yes, I'm really not very sensible. ”

If you are not sensible, you won't know that you will be unhappy when you come, and you still have to see him, and if you are not sensible, you won't always stand here and explain to him in a good temper, he still feels that he is not sensible enough.

The moment she turned her head, tears welled up in her eyes.

Biting her pink lip without saying a word, she walked out quickly.

Adjutant Zhang happened to see her crying from the angle, so he made a gesture to Helian Yao to rub his eyes.

Helian Yao's still dark face didn't have much expression, and it was not surprising that she would cry.

Xue climbed into the car first, and she sat on the window side. Always look out the window with a biased face and don't say a word.

Her mind was full of the scene that had just been pushed away, and she didn't have the energy to think about anything else, and even forgot that there was someone at home who was going to assassinate Helian Yao, and at this moment Helian Yao wanted to follow her home.

Helian Yao saw that she didn't speak, just because she was in a temper, thinking about saying a few nice words of coaxing, but he felt that he was not wrong at all, and suddenly remembered the diamond ring he bought yesterday, and reached out to touch it in his arms, but he didn't touch it, and then he remembered that yesterday's clothes were stained with blood, and he took them off and threw them in the ward.

The thought of giving a ring was dispelled, and he also closed his eyes, women always have to make trouble, and it is better to leave her alone.

When she was about to arrive at the door, Xue Mo remembered that there was still someone hiding in the house.
