Chapter 368: Inside and Outside the House
Ximen Jingxuan, who was hidden outside the courtyard, concentrated his strength and listened to the voice inside more carefully, so he listened to Leng Muran's words word for word.
What's going on inside?!
With a light jump, Ximen Jingxuan jumped into the courtyard, followed the direction of the sound, and got closer to the room where Lin Xin'er was.
There was no light in the house, the doors and windows were closed, and nothing could be seen.
Ximen Jingxuan quietly hid on the side of the wall of the room, he was sure that his skill would not alarm the people in the house.
Huangfu Yanchong listened to Leng Muran's reminder, and suddenly woke up, and had no choice but to let go of Lin Xin'er.
As soon as Huangfu Yanchong stood up, Lin Xin'er rolled down under the bed.
Ximen Jingxuan outside the house only heard a plopping sound, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, and then he heard the voice of Huangfu Yan Chong, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Xin'er curled up on the ground, rolling over and over, trying to help that leg break free and let the little worm in the flesh and bones break free and crawl out.
But what she wants is only her imagination.
At this time, Lin Xin'er only had one belief that she couldn't make a sound in pain and couldn't alarm anyone, and she didn't even know where and when she was in it.
Rolling on the ground without purpose, from time to time it will touch the wall of the table and chair, if it hurts the leg, I don't feel any new pain.
If the head touches the ......
Huangfu Yanchong followed Lin Xin'er's movements, guarding those edges and corners for him, so as not to break her head, but sometimes he still couldn't hold it, and the sound of his dull body hitting the wallboard made him listen to it once, startled once.
Leng Muran also carefully protected Lin Xin'er with her, at this time she also forgot about being afraid and unbearable, and only thought about being able to protect her a little bit.
Hearing that no one came out of the room, Ximen Jingxuan couldn't help but go around to the window, borrowed the wall to cover his body, tilted his head slightly, poked a hole in the window paper, and looked quietly.
The moonlight poured into the house through the window on the other side, and although the window was closed and blocked by a layer of window paper, it was enough to reflect the situation inside the house.
He clearly saw the thin figure rolling and colliding on the ground, and the muffled sound came from her throat, but it was stubbornly blocked back by the cloth, and together with his fists, he resisted the pain that wanted to erupt.
Since Leng Yanqiu is unwilling to use the method, it must be miserable to the extreme.
I can't see it, I can't touch it, I can't feel it, but I can think about it.
Is that why you're trying to avoid me? Xin'er!
Leng Yanqiu knew that it was too late and it would be useless, so he left silently. And he was watching this scene here, he couldn't do anything, and he couldn't even compare to Huangfu Yan Chong being able to help her block the wall.
Ximen Jingxuan retracted his gaze, leaned his back against the wall, and exhaled a long breath, but he couldn't exhale the pain in his heart.
His hands were clasped on the wall, and his fingers grabbed on the wall, rubbing against the rough wall stones.
Ten fingers are connected to the heart, and the pain of grinding the phalanges should be connected to the heart, and accompany Xin'er to the pain.
Time seemed to stop in the moonlight, and the night covered the sky......
Ximen Jingxuan leaned against the wall, closed his eyes, at this time except waiting, he couldn't do anything, he had all kinds of skills, and it was useless.
And his ten fingers have unconsciously made a deep mark on the wall, which is all the feelings he drew for Xin'er with his finger bones.
Finally, time was still moving, the night was fading, and the moon was unconsciously deflecting into the treetops.
The night is coming to an end......
"Okay......" Leng Muran breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of a rooster crowing nearby.
At this time, Lin Xin'er fell to the ground sideways, except that her body was still shaking, and there was no other movement.
The pain was lighter, and she was tired.
The sweat poured out overnight soaked the entire floor, smearing circles of wet marks.
Strands of wet hair stuck to her face and brushed on the ground, covering Lin Xin'er's face.
Huangfu Yanchong squatted down, gently picked her up, placed her on the bed, brushed her messy hair for her, and tidied up her face.
Lin Xin'er still maintained the posture of clenching her fists against the cloth ball.
"Xin'er, take your hands away." Huangfu Yanchong said softly, slowly pulling her hand down, and pulling the crushed cloth out of her mouth.
The white cloth had not only been bitten to pieces, but also stained with blood, which had been stained by biting the lip and bleeding.
"Miss Lin is amazing." Leng Muran couldn't help but praise, but the voice followed suit, and he sighed, "There are still two nights to ......."
Ximen Jingxuan, who had been waiting outside the house all night, heard Leng Muran's words, his body shook, and his tilted head hit the wall.
Although the voice was very low, Lin Xin'er, who had lost her skills, couldn't hear it, and Leng Muran, who lacked skills, didn't hear it, but Huangfu Yanchong heard it clearly.
"You guard Xin'er."
Huangfu Yan Chong hurriedly explained to Leng Muran and left the house.
Ximen Jingxuan, who was aware of the movement in the house, quickly left.
When Huangfu Yan rushed out, he only saw a flashing figure.
Huangfu Yan rushed to the window where the sound sounded, and looked at the marks left on the wall on the side of the window.
It was a bloody streak of ten fingers, short but deep.
Huangfu Yan Chong's brows moved slightly, he glanced sideways at the direction where the figure disappeared, and silently raised his hand to caress the ten traces, secretly lucky, a layer of bloody gravel fell, and after letting go, a piece of the wall was ground off and dented, but there was no trace of blood.
Huangfu Yanchong stepped on the debris on the ground a few times, making sure that it was confused with the dust on the ground, and then returned to the house.
"Brother Leng Yan doesn't know where to go, I'll go get some food first." Leng Muran said, "Miss Lin has consumed a lot of physical strength and needs to replenish it as soon as possible." ”
"You go to the kettle of water first." Huangfu Yan said, "I'll go get food later." ”
"Oh." Leng Muran knew that Huangfu Yanchong was afraid that she would accidentally expose her traces when she went out, so she agreed according to his wishes.
There was water in the well in the courtyard, and there was firewood in the courtyard, so it was easy to boil water.
Leng Muran then left the house.
"Xin'er, come." Huangfu Yanchong helped the paralyzed Lin Xin'er up, sat behind her, and helped her instill true qi.
With the support of true qi, Lin Xin'er eased up a little strength, slowly opened her eyes, and called weakly, "Brother Huangfu." ”
Huangfu Yanchong put Lin Xin'er back away, "Drink some water later, let Mu Ran wipe it for you, and I'll go find a pullover for you to change." ”
Lin Xin'er nodded and unfolded a faint smile, "It's been a day." ”
It only takes two more days for her to get back on her feet.
Two days, she felt that it was short, but Huangfu Yanchong listened to it for a long time.
"Xin'er......" Huangfu Yanchong seemed to have something to say, but he was still a little hesitant.
"Brother Huangfu, what do you want to say?" Lin Xin'er asked, her voice ethereal and weak.
"Nothing, you rest first." Huangfu Yanchong dispelled his thoughts, "I'll go first." ”
Lin Xin'er lowered her eyelids and nodded gently.
Huang Fuyan rushed out of the house and encountered the cold that had just returned.
"Look, I knew you were going to be hungry, so I brought something to eat." Leng Yan raised the cloth bag in his hand at Huangfu Yan.
Huangfu Yanchong ignored it, found the house where Mrs. Ximen Jingyu lived, found a set of clothes, and gave it to Leng Muran, "You change it for Xin'er, and then feed Xin'er some food, I'll go out first." ”
After explaining, Huangfu Yan Chong left the courtyard.
According to the information he had learned before, Huangfu Yan Chong sneaked into the palace from the backyard of King Xuan's mansion, close to the hut where Lin Xin'er lived.
This was the first time he had entered the Xuan Palace, but there was a message left by Yi Yao and the others before, so Huangfu Yan Chong knew everything about the layout of the Xuan Palace, and soon found Mo Yaxuan.
He knew that Ximen Jingxuan usually rested directly after dealing with things in the study, and the most place in the Xuan Wangfu was still the study.
At this time, there was no one in the study, and after Huangfu Yan rushed in, he found the entrance to the secret passage according to the information he had and hid in.
Leaning against the stone slab door of the dark passage, Huangfu Yanchong waited quietly.
It seems that he is still a step early.
After waiting for a short time, I heard the sound of someone stepping into the study, and faintly heard someone's conversation.
"Lord, there is news from the palace again, the emperor wants to summon you into the palace." Yang Chen said to Ximen Jingxuan, who had just returned.
The oracle in the palace came last night, but King Xuan returned early in the morning, and the early dynasty was obviously wrong again.
Yang Chen looked at it, this is not King Xuan's usual practice, although King Xuan could not participate in the early dynasty before, but as long as there is the emperor's will, he will act according to his orders, unlike now the emperor's will is delayed again and again, so it is no wonder that the emperor is not angry.
However, the emperor is not afraid of being angry, King Xuan has the capital not to be afraid of the emperor, if King Xuan really wants to do something, he Yang Chen will continue to walk in front and serve King Xuan.
In fact, King Xuan has a lot of subordinates who want King Xuan to do something in private, obviously King Xuan is the most capable and most should be in charge of the country, the first battle of the year, it was King Xuan who recaptured the country, but it was handed over to the emperor who could be regarded as having been ousted from the throne, which has been dissatisfied in the hearts of those subordinates who accompanied King Xuan in a bloody battle to turn defeat into victory.
"Hmm." Ximen Jingxuan just answered and walked to the inside of the screen, "This king will rest for a while, and then enter the palace." ”
"Yes." Yang Chen saw that Ximen Jingxuan had no intention of entering the palace immediately, so he retired and left the study.
The door to the study was closed, and there was silence.
Huangfu Yan Chong, who was leaning behind the stone door of the secret passage, heard the footsteps of Ximen Jingxuan walking in the study, and he did not rest as he said.
Huangfu Yanchong raised his hand and touched the stone door, patted it gently, and there was a crisp sound.
The sound undoubtedly alarmed Ximen Jingxuan.
As the sound started, Huangfu Yan Chong quickly moved back, swept out more than a dozen times into the dark passage.
At the same time, the stone gate opened, and Ximen Jingxuan flashed into the dark passage and attacked Huangfu Yan Chong quickly.
When the stone door was closed again, the two of them had already exchanged hands in the depths of the dark passage, and the palm wind was fierce, forcing each other.
