He threw the ball at me, and he often knocked on the ground to make noises, could it be that he was calling for help from me? If that's the case, then why didn't he just call me? Could it be that he is mute? But in the occasional clip that pops up in my memory, the man named Ruan Qing is not a mute......

I really wanted to find out about it, but it was too dark over there, and I was claustrophobic, so I didn't dare to go over there to find out, so I just stared at it in fear. But the more I stared at it, the more I felt weird and abnormal over there.

I don't know how long it took, but I heard the footsteps of Xuyun coming back from the gate of the front yard, and I suddenly came back to my senses, and almost without thinking about it, I kicked the ball under my feet into the corner.

With a squeak, Xuyun pushed open the courtyard door, saw me, and asked in surprise, "Xiaohe, why are you still standing in the courtyard?" ”

At this time, I had already withdrawn my gaze from the backyard, and looked at Xuyun for a long time before I thought of a suitable excuse, "Being tossed by Bai Xue like this, I lost my sleepiness, so I stood in the yard and waited for you to come back." ”

After listening to my words, Xuyun glanced at the direction of the backyard with a blank look, and then approached me in a few steps, "Are you really waiting for me?" And not for some other reason? ”

When he asked me, his eyes were sharp in my eyes, and I was stared at by him, but I wondered if I told him the truth, would the person who was locked up in the cellar be punished by Xuyun? I've seen Xu Yun tell the people in the cellar that if he refuses to tell him how to make the Hundred Gu Wine, he will let him continue to suffer, so I don't care if that person is a good person or a bad person, I don't want him to be punished for me.

"Little lotus?" Xuyun didn't get my answer for a long time, and asked.

Only then did I come back to my senses and boldly said, "You always made me trust you, but did you trust me again?" I've found that no matter what I say, you're skeptical. If I'm not standing here waiting for you, then what am I doing? Sleepwalking? ”

Xu Yun was said by me, and his face instantly softened, "Look at you, I just asked out of concern, and you won't be happy." Your temper is really rising today, and you have been angry with me several times. Usually you are like a little sheep. ”

When I saw that his face softened, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pretended to be displeased: "Who let too much happen today!" Xuyun, there is something I ask you, you must answer me honestly. ”

As soon as Xuyun heard what I said, his pupils flickered, "What's the matter?" ”

"That's ......" Originally, I wanted to ask him if there were people locked up in the cellar, but when the words came to my mouth, I still changed the conversation, "Is Bai Xue really dating you?" ”

When Xu Yun heard this, he actually hooked his lips slightly and smiled, "I thought you asked me something, but I didn't expect it to be this matter." Are you jealous? ”

Jealous?

I wasn't actually jealous, I don't know why, when I heard Bai Xue say that Xuyun was her boyfriend, I didn't have any waves in my heart. But at this time, I was worried that Xuyun thought that I didn't have him in my heart, so I didn't look over my head and pretended to be shy, "I didn't." Just wanted to ask. ”

"If you're not jealous, you won't care, let alone ask me." Xuyun obviously thought I was jealous, reached out and hugged me into his arms, his chin lightly rested on my head, and said in a gentle and doting tone, "Don't worry, I pretended to be dating her at the beginning, and I didn't have a relationship between men and women." Don't eat these meaningless flying vinegars. ”

"Then why are you pretending to have a relationship with her, are you really playing with her feelings?" I was not happy to hear this explanation.

"You're thinking too much, what qualifications does she have to play with me? I'm not doing that because you...... Forget it, don't talk about the past anymore. Xiaohe, let's stop quarreling because of these past events or people, it's not worth it. You just need to remember that I, Zhao Xuyun, have only loved you in my life, and I will only love you. For the rest, don't get cranky. Do you understand? Xuyun looked at me seriously.

Do you understand it again? I don't understand! If he really loves me, why would he lie to me and stop me from recalling the past?

"Oh."

After a long time, I replied casually and didn't say anything. But in his heart, he was thinking about the plan of how to secretly go to the cellar to find out tomorrow while he was not at home. Since he didn't tell me the truth, then I was left to find out on my own.

Then Xuyun hugged me for a while, then took my hand and pulled me into the house.

When he entered the room, he shuddered, let go of my hand, ran to the table and sat down, and reached out to take the jar of wine. But for some reason, his hand touched the wine jar, and when he saw that he was about to get it, he suddenly retracted, grabbed the roots of his hair with both hands, bit his thin lips with his teeth, and raised his head with a painful expression.

Seeing this, I felt a pang in my heart, and hurriedly walked over and patted him on the shoulder, crying worriedly, "Xuyun, what's wrong with you?" Where is it uncomfortable? ”

At this time, because of the pain, the green tendons on his face were exposed, and his lips were bitten by his teeth, but he didn't shout, just shook his head at me, and signaled me to leave him alone.

But seeing him in such pain, how can I ignore him?

"Xuyun, what's wrong with you?" He is usually in good health, why did he suddenly have this situation today?

I was so anxious that I could only shed tears on the sidelines.

It was probably my tears that fell to his neck, and he came back to his senses a little, and his blood-colored eyes glanced at me, and then let go of a hair-pulling hand, and reached out to the wine jar on the table with a trembling hand.

Seeing this, I suddenly realized, "Are you going to drink medicinal wine?" ”

Xuyun nodded with difficulty.

I didn't think much of it, so I helped him open the jar, took the glass of water on the table and poured him a glass, and before I could hand it to him, he took it and drank it himself. But after a drink, he still did not get relieved, stood up with one hand on the edge of the table, snatched the jar of wine from my hand, raised it, and drank it with a clatter.

But he poured it too quickly, and some of the wine flowed down his chin onto his white shirt, which instantly dyed the shirt a pale red, and the whole person did not look as elegant as before, but only a bold and savage feeling.

This jar of wine was obviously not the Hundred Gu Medicinal Wine he had drunk every day before, because the color was not dark red. Moreover, when the jar of wine was in the firewood room today, he dropped it, and there was no more such medicinal wine at home. Now this jar of wine should just be a substitute for him who he found temporarily. But apparently it didn't work out very well.

I didn't know what he drank a glass of that medicinal wine every day, but now I understand that he can't do without it! No wonder the man who would make this wine was closed in the cellar! It's just that this wine is so precious, how can he be willing to drop it during the day today?

"Bang ......"

Just when I was frightened by the appearance of Xuyun Altar looking up and pouring wine, he suddenly put the wine jar on the table, and then the whole person lay on the table, while snorting wine, he reached out and searched everywhere, as if he was looking for something.

"Asahi Yun?" I stepped closer and called out to him, shaking my hand on his shoulder.

He was searching for something, but as soon as he grabbed the hand that I was shaking his shoulder, he muttered drunken words, "Little lotus...... Don't be afraid, Xiaohe, I'll be fine. It's going to be fine......"

After he said this, his hand suddenly let go and hung down weakly, and the whole person collapsed on the table motionless. Apparently drunk.

I saw that although he was drunk, he didn't have the same painful expression as before, so I let go of my heart. Then he helped him to the bed in the room with great difficulty, took off his shirt again, wiped the wine on his body, and covered him with a thin quilt. When everything was done, the roosters in the stockade crowed, and I looked out the window, and it was getting brighter.

I was also exhausted, and I was going to take away the dirty clothes in the basin and come back to rest. But when I got out of the room and put my clothes on the well outside the kitchen, I suddenly saw the ball I had kicked aside, and I immediately looked up in the direction of the backyard.

Now that Xuyun is drunk and unconscious, it is the best time for me to go to the cellar to find out!

Thinking about it like this, I didn't think much of it, went back to the house, picked up the flashlight, and walked towards the firewood room in the backyard.

When I came to the door of the firewood room, it was already dawning, and I didn't need a flashlight to illuminate it, so I could see the environment inside, but I was still a little scared and stood there with a flashlight.

The door was chained by Xuyun with iron bolts, and if there were really people inside, there was no way to open the door from below and escape. And when I saw Sister-in-law Ruan and Lixiang open this cellar door before, they didn't dare to touch the iron bolt directly with their hands, so I had a heartfelt eye, reached out and pulled out a piece of wood from the firewood pile in the firewood room, and prepared to go in and pull open the iron bolt and open the cellar door.

However, just as I was pumping wood, I suddenly heard the sound of "Sisi" at my feet!

I hurriedly looked down, and at some point there were five or six intertwined snakes at my feet, spitting out letters at me, as if if if I dared to move again, they would bite me together. I was most afraid of snakes and other poisons in my life, so I was so frightened that when my hand shook, the log in my hand fell to the ground and made a "squeak" sound.

Seeing this, I thought that I was going to be bitten by a snake in the next moment, so I screamed, closed my eyes, and waited for the sharp pain of being bitten by the snake to come, and blamed myself for not being cautious and careful.

"Knock ......"

Just as I was about to strike, there was a strong knock on the cellar door, and I opened my eyes to look over, but there was no sound from there. But this sound made the snakes that were surrounded by my feet disappear one by one into the firewood pile!

Are these snakes afraid of strong knocking sounds? Suddenly remembered the picture of Xuyun stomping his feet to scare the snakes away before, and his heart was a little blocked, could it be that these snakes were raised by Xuyun? The purpose is to keep the cellar so that no one can find out who is inside?

It seems that there are really people under the cellar!

Thinking of this, I didn't think much about it, picked up the stick, pulled the iron bolt of the cellar door open, and then used the stick to open the cellar door on one side.

And just as I was about to open the cellar door, a big hand full of mud suddenly stretched out and grabbed my wrist, so frightened that I didn't have time to shout "uh", and the whole person was dragged down at once!

I thought I would be greeted next by hard ground, however, a second later, I fell into a fishy bosom. The sound of rapid breathing and the sound of a pounding heartbeat in my ears froze me for a moment.

There really are people in the cellar! Moreover, I was dragged down by him and hugged tightly in his arms......

The words that Xu Yun said flashed in his mind, "Ruan Qing is a heinous bastard, he raises Gu as a curse, and there is no one among the villagers who does not hate him." ”

If this person locked up in the cellar is that Ruan Qing, then wouldn't I...... Isn't it dangerous?

Suddenly I regretted my recklessness! What will he do to me next? What should I do?

"Hmm......"

Just when I was frightened, the big hands that hugged me suddenly tightened my strength, and I was almost unable to breathe, and above my head, there was a whimper, like his cry, and like a painful moan from something in his throat, in short, it was terrifying!

"Uh...... You, who are you...... Let go of me, I ...... I'm running out of breath! I couldn't stand it anymore because I was strangled in his arms like this, so I put my hand on his chest, pushed open a little gap, and shouted at him while breathing greedily.

But as soon as my hand touched his chest, I realized that something was squirming under his clothes......

My scalp instantly tingled and I shrank my hand in fright!

But the next moment, something happened that made me even more frightened, he actually pushed me to the mud and stone wall, and then the whole person pressed over, dirty hands touched my body, and the sticky lips kissed me on the cheek and neck!

I suddenly screamed in shock, "Ah~! Help me! …… Save (life) ......"

As a result, I was halfway through shouting, one of his dirty hands covered my mouth, and with the other hand, he skillfully untied the hood in my nightdress and ripped it off!
