Chapter 42: The Lost Handkerchief
Chu Tiankuo walked over to her and joked with a smile: "Shame or not, such a big person still loves to cry like a little girl." ”
"Chu Tiankuo, how are you feeling now?" Dongfanghong asked.
Chu Tiankuo threw him a grateful smile: "I'm fine." Lord Dongfang, you really came to save me. I owe you a favor again. ”
Yanxiang saw that the elder brother's complexion had improved, his expression was gentle, and he could talk and laugh freely, thinking that the poison in him had been forced out and saved, like a strong wind blowing through the clouds, and his mood suddenly brightened.
Yanxiang's expression changed instantly: "It turns out that senior brother, you have long known that Dongfang Red Society will come to save us." No wonder you're not nervous at all when you're trapped in a dungeon. ”
Lu Hao prepared good wine and good food to entertain them for dinner.
The cigarette gave him an angry look: "The weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he didn't have a good heart." Who knows if you're going to poison the food? ”
Chu Tiankuo smiled tolerantly and generously: "It's the so-called don't fight, don't know each other." Then thank you for the hospitality of the owner of Lu Zhai. Chu Tiankuo said, his eyes looked at Dongfang Hong: "It's getting late, it's better to rest for a night and hurry up tomorrow morning." Lord Dongfang, what do you think? ”
Dongfanghong nodded and smiled in agreement. Chu Tiankuo used his skills to force poison just now, and he spent a lot of energy, and now his body is weak. Besides, at night, the lights are blind, and the mountain road is rugged, what if you accidentally fall off the cliff?
Chu Tiankuo automatically ignored the attitude of cigarette incense.
The cigarette pouted, and his head was full of chagrin. Big brother is a bad guy. It's clear that people want to harm him. But he didn't care. The heart is really big enough. Everyone else has a grudge to repay, and a grudge to take revenge. He is good, he always thinks about it, repays grievances with virtue, does not remember the old evil, turns hostility into jade silk, and turns anger into peace. Did he think of himself as a bodhisattva? A look like a purifying being. He is not a monk, pretending to be a Tang monk.
Everyone walked out of the dungeon, and the smoke was still standing in a daze.
Chu Tiankuo smiled and said, "Yanxiang, what do you want?" ”
Smoke came back to her senses and made a mischievous grimace at him. I thought in my heart, I like to pretend to be Tang Seng so much, sooner or later I will be eaten by monsters. Suddenly, it felt wrong. The monster ate the elder brother, she didn't want to cry to death. I couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly.
Lu Hao was attracted by the colorful expression of the smoke incense. One quarter of an hour she was crying bitterly, and the next quarter of an hour she was smiling. I was also touched by their brother-sister affection. Thinking of his own life experience, he was saddened. Since his parents died when he was a child, he was adopted by his master and taught martial arts. Later, following the master's arrangement, he killed someone for the first time. In order to avoid the accountability of the government, he had to go up the mountain and fall into the grass to be a coward, and he was close to the end of the world with his sister.
As a green forest and reckless, there is also a lot of helplessness. If you do too much murder and arson, you will become insensitive. I don't know what happened to my sister.
The night in Lujiazhai is very quiet.
Only the lonely moon gazed at the quiet night from afar.
Dongfang Hong was alone, standing at the door of Chu Tiankuo's room in this night full of seclusion.
The wind whistled and rustled with leaves, like the howling of the wind.
Until midnight, several masked men in black appeared. Several masked people lured Dongfang Hong away, and one of the masked men broke into Chu Tiankuo's room.
Lu Hao heard the sound of the fight and suddenly got up from the bed. quickly put on his clothes, and his first reaction was to rush to Chu Tiankuo's room. I don't know why, he suddenly didn't want Chu Tiankuo to die.
The masked man's martial arts were unfathomable, the long sword was unsheathed, Chu Tiankuo took a fan to block it, and the fan was split in half by him.
The masked man's eyes quickly drew his sword back.
Chu Tiankuo wanted to use his internal force to shake back the enemy, but he couldn't send out the internal force, but he spit out a mouthful of black blood, and the corners of his mouth were stained with blood. He took out the silk handkerchief in his arms, and before he could wipe his mouth, the masked man's sword stabbed again. He dodged left and right mechanically, accelerating the onset of poison on his body, and he was covered in cold sweat.
His consciousness began to blur.
Silk Pa fell to the ground.
The masked man bent down to pick it up.
A fierce cold light came towards Chu Tiankuo. He subconsciously closed his eyes.
At this life-and-death moment, Lu Hao arrived in time and blocked in front of him.
The sword light approached, and Lu Hao suddenly stopped. The other party glanced at Lu Hao, and with a low roar of "dodge", the sword turned sharply, directly taking the person behind Lu Hao.
Chu Tiankuo fell, and the masked man did not stab him.
Dongfang Hong dealt with the masked man outside, rushed into the room, held his sword, stabbed at the masked man, and shouted: "Look at the move! ”
The masked man saw Dongfanghong coming, and he no longer fell in love with the war. Perform light skills and leap away.
Dongfanghong also leaped up and chased after him.
After the smoke was noticed, the sound of the fight woke her up. When she arrived, under the moonlight, she saw several masked people in the courtyard, with hateful faces, scars, and black blood at the corners of their mouths, who should have committed suicide by taking poison.
She was terrified, and staggered to the senior brother's room.
Seeing the bloodless face of the senior brother and fainting to death, she felt extremely uncomfortable, dizzy for a while, and fainted.
Dongfang Hong chased after him for a while, but did not catch up with the masked man. He wondered in his heart, this person's light skills were above him, and it stands to reason that his martial arts will not be weak. Why did you rush to run when you saw him without making a move? Who is going to kill Chu Tiankuo?
No matter, let's go back and see Chu Tiankuo first.
The morning sun is rising, and the colorful glow is changing. The sun rises higher and higher, and thousands of rays of sunlight are like sharp arrows, passing through the clouds and shining on the land of Lujiazhai.
Chu Tiankuo and Yanxiang slept for a few hours, and they didn't wake up until noon.
Dongfang Hong guarded Chu Tiankuo all night, instilling true qi in him, and he was so tired that he collapsed.
Lu Hao sincerely let Dongfanghong rest, but unexpectedly aroused Dongfanghong's anger.
Dongfang Hong didn't know where the nameless fire came from, so he held back his anger and lowered his voice and said, "Lord Lu Zhai, who knows if yesterday's assassin was colluded by you?" Chu Tiankuo's poisoning, I haven't had time to settle accounts with you. You'd better pray he's okay. Otherwise......"
Lu Hao suddenly laughed. It's hard to be a wicked person, and it's even harder to be a good person. Before he could answer Dongfanghong, his men reported that three people, a man and two women, had broken into the village. One of the women didn't know martial arts, and the other two had good martial arts, and the brothers in the village couldn't stop them.
"I'll take a look." Lu Hao walked out with a calm face. While walking, he was annoyed in his heart, Chu Tiankuo really couldn't be provoked. Although he hadn't seen anyone coming from outside, based on his feelings, he must have something to do with Chu Tiankuo. Chu Tiankuo was deeply poisoned, if he died in Lujiazhai, in the future, I am afraid that Lujiazhai will not be at peace.
He strode forward, sweating on his forehead, walked through the courtyard, and came to the gate, where Chi Le had already broken in first.
Lu Hao's cold gaze turned on Chi Le, and there was a strong smell of gunpowder in his tone: "What a boldness, dare to break into Lujiazhai." ”
