Chapter 44: Helan
"Be carefulβ"
Helan's frightened cry was heard in his ears.
Li Bingru turned around when he heard the sound, and a sword with a glowing cold light had pierced into the flesh with a "flutter".
Time stood still, Li Bingru's eyes widened in horror, only to feel that the three souls and six spirits all flew out of the body.
However, time did not stand still, the sword was withdrawn from Helan's body, and Helan fell to the ground like a dead leaf.
"Helanβ"
Li Bingru hugged Helan and felt trembling all over.
"Let's go ......" Helan still pushed Li Bingru by himself.
"Let's go?" The man in black sneered, and the cold sword was raised again.
Li Bingru closed her eyes, these people clearly came to ask for her life, where could she go?
At the moment of life and death, what came to Li Bingru's mind was Li Yuchen standing in the dark night, tall and majestic, and his eyes flashed with the brilliance that could light up the entire night sky.
He's saying, "Come with me!" β
She wanted to say, "Okay! β
Be a ranger, even if the road ahead is bleak, but that is also free!
"Tell meβ"
It's the sound of metal colliding.
The expected pain did not come, Li Bingru opened his eyes, and Li Yuchen, dressed in black, appeared in front of him like a god. Guarding her off danger was a strange man with a sturdy build. But Li Bingru knew that it was the person brought by Li Yuchen.
It turned out that Li Yuchen didn't go far, he looked at the figures of Li Bingru and Helan hidden in the darkness, and only then turned around with Yan Feng, who knew that when he was just about to jump out of the courtyard wall of Tianlong Castle, he heard Li Bingru's frightened shout, and ran to find the sound without hesitation.
"Li Yuchen!"
Li Bingru hurriedly shouted, "Helan is injured, save her!" β
"How are you? Did it hurt anywhere? β
Li Yuchen didn't look at the woman in Li Bingru's arms, but first inspected Li Bingru.
Li Bingru's eyes suddenly heated, "I'm fine, but Helan ......"
ββ¦β¦ Second, the young lady ......"
Helan pulled Li Bingru's hand sleeve with difficulty, "Slave ......"
"Don't talk yet!"
Li Yuchen snorted coldly, quickly clicked a few times on Helan's body, and then went to look at Helan's wound.
Helan shook her head and waved Li Yuchen's hand away.
"Slave maid...... Slaves and maids have never ...... I'm sorry for what I've done...... ...... vomit"
A mouthful of blood spilled out of Helan's mouth.
"Helanβ"
Li Bingru suddenly panicked, and grabbed Helan's hand tightly, "Don't talk yet." I'll take you to the doctor, and you'll be fine. β
ββ¦β¦ Madame......"
Helan grabbed Li Yuchen's sleeve with his hand, shook his head, and tried to point in the direction of the void with one hand, "...... Xi...... Wind...... Pavilion ......"
The hand hung down weakly, and Li Bingru only felt that his heart fell into the dark abyss.
Li Yuchen probed Helan's pulse and shook his head silently.
"Helan!"
Li Bingru screamed and hugged Helan tightly in her arms, "It's me who is bad, I'm sorry, it's me who is not good......"
"Girl!"
Li Yuchen grabbed Li Bingru's shoulder, but the arrogant little girl was trembling at the moment.
Li Bingru suddenly remembered something, took out the jade pendant from his arms and threw it fiercely.
"Isn't it just a piece of broken jade, why kill someone?"
The black-clothed people looked at each other, and the leading black-clothed man just wanted to pick up the jade pendant on the ground, and Li Yuchen's cold gaze swept over.
"Get out!"
The man in black was stunned for a moment, and disappeared into the twilight in an instant.
"Master."
Yan Feng swept in front of Li Yuchen, "The guards of Tianlong Castle are all coming this way. β
"Girl?" Li Yuchen was still uneasy.
"Let's go!"
Li Bingru took a hard breath and said that she was fine.
"Okay." Li Yuchen's voice was low, "Girl, if anyone asks about the jade pendant again, it will be said that it was snatched by those people just now." β
Li Bingru raised her crystal teary eyes and looked at Li Yuchen in puzzlement.
"Trust me!" Li Yuchen's face was unprecedentedly cold, "Remember what I said." β
Li Bingru nodded uncontrollably.
"Nangong Honglin, this old horseman!"
Li Yuchen picked up the jade pendant and held it tightly in a place where Li Bingru couldn't see.
Li Bingru wanted to pick up Helan, but in the end, her eyes went black and she fell.
"Second Young Ladyβ"
Coincidentally, while running into the Qingxiang Pavilion, he shouted in alarm, as if something terrible had happened.
"What are you shouting?" Li Bingwu stood in front of the door and scolded dissatisfiedly, "The second young lady is still asleep!" What to do if you wake her up? β
"Huh?"
Coincidentally, while panting, he looked up at the rising sun overhead.
"Helan is dead, my sister must be very sad."
Li Bingwu said and glanced worriedly at the closed door.
"Sister Xiao Wu......" Keqiao lowered her head and wrung her fingers.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Li Bingwu said, "I usually look at you very smartly, what's wrong today, I don't know if my sister needs to be quiet?" β
Keqiao gritted his teeth, and his clear eyes seemed to be dyed with a little bit of sparkling.
"Sister Xiao Wu, it's not good, I went to the kitchen just now, and I heard everyone talking about the second young master marrying Miss Zixibiao......"
"What?"
Li Bingwu's face turned white for a moment, "The second young master obviously said it...... Did you hear it wrong? β
"How could I have misheard?"
Ke Qiao pouted and complained, "Now the people of the entire Tianlong Castle know, but we Qingxiang Pavilion don't know!" β
"The second young master marries Miss Cousin at this time, where will he put his sister?" Li Bingwu said in a panic, "No, you can't let my sister know about this matter first......
"What can't I know?"
Li Bingru suddenly opened the door.
"Sister, aren't you sleeping?" Li Bingwu was surprised.
"There's a little sparrow in the yard, how can I sleep?"
Li Bingru glanced at the dazzling sun, "Coincidentally, is what you just said true?" Nangong Yifeng, is he really going to marry Sun Zixi? β
"It must be fake." Li Bingwu said quickly, "My sister and the second young master have only been married for more than a month, how can the second young master marry another?" β
Li Bingwu glanced at Ke Qiao, but Ke Qiao only lowered his head, not knowing whether he was looking at the interlaced fingers or the moving toes.
"There's nothing wrong with that."
Li Bingru suddenly smiled.
I thought it would be very sad, but I didn't.
"Sister......" Li Bingwu climbed Li Bingru worriedly.
Li Bingru shook her head, indicating that it didn't matter. Then he asked, "What about Helan?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Li Bingwu also lowered his head, not knowing how to answer.
Li Bingru sighed.
"I know Helan is dead. I just asked, where is she now, she died for me, I have to send her off! β
"Sister Helan has been pulled out and buried overnight." Coincidentally, his eyes were red.
Li Bingru was stunned, this speed is too fast.
Li Bingwu seemed to see Li Bingru's thoughts, and persuaded: "Sister, there is no need to be sad, we are slaves and maids, and we are born with cheap lives, even if we die, the decent ones are just wrapped in straw mats and thrown into mass graves." Helan can sleep peacefully underground, and it is also her kindness to save her sister. β
Li Bingru only felt a heart-chilling coldness.
From the feet to the hands, from the inside to the outside, even standing under the midsummer sun, I still can't stop shivering.
"Nangong Yifeng, I want to see him."
Anyway, Helan is to save her, she can't let Helan just leave.
"I'm afraid Cousin Feng won't have time to see you."
Sun Zixi was wearing a gauze skirt as red as blood, and her face was full of the triumph of a victor.
"He went early in the morning to ask for an appointment."
Li Bingru listened to Sun Zixi's words later, and only then did she understand that she was here to show off and declare war.
"Really? Then congratulations! β
Li Bingru ignored Sun Zixi, turned around and entered the house, Helan had just died, and Sun Zixi's blood red and smug were too dazzling.
Sun Zixi followed Li Bingru into the room.
Li Bingru frowned, isn't her attitude of picking up customers obvious enough?
"Miss, the slave maid said, my uncle still likes you!"
As soon as Dong Hui entered Li Bingru's room, she looked around, her face was mocking and proud.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Bingwu didn't give in at all, "The second young master married the second young lady, so naturally he prefers his own genuine wife's room!" β
"You!" Dong Hui's face immediately turned white, and she secretly glanced at Sun Zixi.
Sun Zixi didn't care, her face was the shyness and joy of her daughter's family that couldn't be concealed, she looked around and walked to the half-propped window.
"If I'm not mistaken, there should have been violet flowers on this table, right? The morning light is first picked, with crystal morning dew, which is delicate and fragrant. β
Li Bingru's hand fell in front of the dresser.
Sun Zixi was right, there was indeed a vase on the table, and Helan would insert a fresh flower every day. But the last time she opened the window, she felt that it was in the way, so she asked Helan to withdraw.
It turned out that this was Nangong Yifeng's tenderness for Sun Zixi.
"Liu Xiangxue, how much do you say Cousin Feng likes you?"
Sun Zixi stroked the light bed curtain with his hand, "Purple curtain, tortoiseshell dresser, are you still comfortable using it?" β
"Helan is dead." Li Bingru suddenly spoke, staring coldly at Sun Zixi.
Sure enough, Sun Zixi made a move, and his originally proud and arrogant expression stiffened on his face.
"Last night, a group of people in black robbed me of Hongzhuo, and Helan was killed by the men in black in order to save me."
Li Bingru said and took a step closer towards Sun Zixi, "I saw with my own eyes that the cold light and cold sword pierced her heart, and the blood spurted out like a spring, staining her clothes red......"
Sun Zixi took a step back, clasped his hands in his sleeves, and the red clothes on his body were like the blood that flowed from Helan's mouth last night.
"The blood-stained red dress is as glamorous as the dress on your body, Miss Cousin, she keeps shouting pain, it hurts, she doesn't blink her eyes, she asked me to take revenge on her......"
Li Bingru took another step closer.
"Helan has been shouting for revenge! Sun Zixi, do you know who those men in black are? β
"Joke, how would I know?" Sun Zixi's voice was a little chaotic, dodging Li Bingru's gaze.
"Ah, I just remembered, I'm going to say hello to my aunt!"
"Sister, let's go to the temple to find the mage!" Li Bingwu nervously pulled up Li Bingru, tears almost fell out, "This Helan is too, how can you come to my sister?" β
"Xiao Wu!" Li Bingru pulled Li Bingwu funny, "I scared Sun Zixi, can't you see it?" β
"Scare?" Li Bingwu realized after the dance, "Why? β
Li Bingru was silent.
"Ahh Coincidentally, he suddenly screamed, "Second Young Lady, don't you suspect ......"
"There's just no evidence."
Li Bingru nodded, she had been safe with Hongzhuo for so long, but as soon as this grandson Zixi found Hongzhuo, she came to kill her.
Sun Zixi, you'd better not let me find evidence!
"Miss Cousin, how dare she?" Li Bingwu was also frightened, "No, I'm going to find the second young master!" β
