Chapter 68 The Human Heart
The crowd automatically separated Xiu Yue, and her dull expression made everyone afraid to speak.
The woman's skirt was originally white, and the gauze on it would reflect a gentle light in the sun, but the hem of her skirt had been stained with water, which turned the gauze into something viscous and fell into the dust, and finally constituted filth.
And the woman was lying on the ground now, her face a little pale, and her whole body was curled up in the water that came out of the bucket.
Her eyes were not closed, and she stared at the open space in front of her, the empty land was like her eyes, and there was nothing there.
Xiu Yue suddenly choked up when she saw this picture.
She has seen many dead people, birth, old age, sickness and death, blessings and misfortunes.
But she seldom mourns for a deceased person in this way, because she sees the woman who fell to the ground, slowly revealing the light and merit of goodness.
If there was no Xiuyue, she, deep heart, would not have died.
Xiuyue turned around and looked at Rong Zhao with eyes that were already in tears, she didn't speak, but she believed that Rong Zhao had understood what she meant.
Rong Zhao glanced at her distressedly, but he always felt that he couldn't step forward to approach her now, because in her world, there was no need for comfort at all.
Simply, Rong recalled his head and said sharply: "What's the matter!" "
The maids and guards kneeling on the ground all trembled with Rong Zhao's cold voice, but none of them answered the question.
Rong Zhao continued to say coldly: "I'll ask one last time, what's going on!" ”
Finally, the guard kneeling in the front slowly spoke: "My lord, this, this girl, I don't know why, suddenly, suddenly I have to come to this backyard to water the flowers, although this although, although no one has ever had this job, but it, the little ones don't dare to say anything, and later, I didn't think that this girl screamed, and when the villain came to see, she had already fallen to the ground." ”
After listening to the words of the man kneeling on the ground, Xiu Yue clenched her hands, and her palms ached because of the nails being buckled in.
Chief Shaw!
What kind of thing is it that wants to hurt this woman and cover it up with death.
Rong Zhao looked back at Xiu Yuedi's expression, walked over slowly, gently hugged her, and said, "Don't be burdened, we will definitely be able to avenge her." ”
Xiu Yue raised her head and met Rong Zhao's gaze, and a tacit understanding that finally suddenly formed began to appear on the two of them blatantly.
Since the matter has happened, then it needs to be dealt with, Rong Zhao turned back and instructed the maid guards who were preparing to see the good things on the side, just said a few words, suddenly heard a terrible cry from a distance, and then a little girl rushed over from a distance, followed by an old man who was already lying on the ground.
The little girl ran over and saw the scene in the yard from afar, and the tears on her face began to fall rapidly, and at last they almost spread all over her face.
Her face was originally a little dark, but with those tears, the black things on her face began to slowly fall off, and the white skin began to show. She was also dissatisfied with her movements, and pulled away from the crowd of onlookers who were kneeling on the ground and didn't understand what was going on, and ran in.
When the little girl saw the woman lying on the ground, the expression on her face was on her face, as if she had taken away all those tears and was about to walk over to do something.
But she didn't succeed, because halfway through, Xiuyue reached out and stopped her.
"Don't go over."
Xiaoshan looked up coldly at Xiu Yue, who stopped her, "You obviously said that you wouldn't hurt Sister Shenxin, but why!" Why is this happening! ”
Faced with Xiaoshan's questioning and the incomprehension that flashed in her eyes, Xiuyue knew that she had no way to answer her question, so she could only look at her in a daze.
Rong Zhao tightened his arms, felt the trembling body of the person in his arms, and said, "This matter was not done by us, it was already like this when we came, you can't blame her." ”
Xiao Yi snorted coldly, raised his little head, and looked at Rong Zhao with disdain.
After a moment of stalemate, Xiao Yi's movements continued, ready to cross her arm, but suddenly, her arm was held by a pair of hands, and an old but deep voice appeared in her ears, "Xiao Yi, don't do stupid things, child." ”
It's the manager of the pharmacology shop.
The steward suddenly pulled the clothes of the shirt and knelt down, looked at Rong Hu with a sad face and said, "Lord Rong, Miss Xiuyue, this child is new, there are no rules, don't be weird." “
Xiuyue also reacted at this time, stretched out her hand to push herself out of Rong Zhao's embrace, wiped the tears on her chin, stretched out her hand to help the steward up, and said: "If the steward is there, we will naturally not blame, but the girl's affairs are strange, I hope not to act willfully." “
Knowing that the other party had done his best, the steward also showed a grateful expression on his face, pulled the shirt that was still about to step forward behind him, stood up and said, "Thank you Miss Xiuyue, the tired girl has avenged the deep-hearted girl." “
Xiuyue clenched the rune paper in her palm, and she smiled, "Naturally. “
When the shirt was dragged away, he was unwilling, and looked back at Xiuyue "reluctantly", and his eyes were red.
Xiuyue's heart was almost untensed by this look, and the whole person collapsed in Rong Zhao's arms again, and waited for a while before relieving.
In just such a short period of effort, the idle people and others have been cleaned up, and the remaining few people also left quickly under Rong Zhao's orders, so that Rong Zhao Xiuyue and the deep heart on the ground are left.
No one ever said that the woman lying on the ground was Shenxin, but Xiuyue almost didn't have to think about it to know who this person was.
She finally mustered up the courage to walk over, reached out and slowly closed the woman's eyes, the coldness that could reach her heart shook, and her breath was tense.
She took out the things in her sleeve, but this time it was not a small house, it became a star, a star formed by origami, it can be seen that the person's technique is not very familiar, and the corners of the star are still a little untidy.
She took out a rune paper and pasted it on Shenxin's body on the ground, and like last time, she bit her fingers, but this time she didn't draw on the ground, but lightly clicked on the rune paper, and after a while, the star in Xiuyue's palm actually began to move slowly, and finally flew up, circled around Shenxin twice, and then stopped and returned to her hand.
This time, I didn't see anything peeled out of Shenxin's body, and some unknown Rong Zhao said on the side: "This ...... A soul in your heart? ”
Xiuyue nodded: "It's already there." ”
After speaking, she tore off the yellow rune paper on Shenxin's body, and with a twist of her wrist, the rune paper burned into ashes.
The water on the ground had been reduced a lot by the sunlight, and there was a little bit of ripple left, which widened a little when the wind blew.
Suddenly, the ripples on the surface of the water began to shake rapidly, and the small puddles on the ground were often the least noticeable. Everything that happened went unnoticed by the two people standing on the sidelines.
The wind finally flickered and swept in.
Rong Zhao, who was talking to Xiu Yue, suddenly had his eyes horizontal, and instantly hugged Xiu Yue and began to retreat, the long sword suddenly came out of its sheath, its wrist flipped, and the sword flower exploded a little silver light in the air, and the thing that suddenly came also fell to the ground with a "bang".
After this sound, there was no more movement, presumably, the man had already retreated.
Rong Zhao let go of Xiuyue's waist and squatted down to pick up the thing that had just fallen.
Xiuyue looked at the thing in his hand suspiciously, it was exactly the same as the silver needle that day.
She frowned and said, "What does this person have to do with Master Xiao?" ”
Rong Zhao said coldly: "Such a person will definitely not do things under him." ”
Xiuyue looked at the corpse on the ground in the distance, the corpse was intact, and it didn't look like there was any external injury, compared to it, it was caused by this silver needle.
"Is the silver needle so powerful?"
"No, it's supposed to be the poison on it." Rong Zhao girl, there has always been a small bottle on his long sword spike, Xiu Yue has not paid much attention to it, but he didn't expect Rong Zhao to gently put the silver needle into it, and when he took it out again, the silver needle had already become jet black.
"What is contained in this bottle is septic powder, no need to do detoxification, but it can reveal the poison, this poison is very toxic, and it can meet silver needles and not change color, presumably a dispensing master."
After he finished speaking, his face had become very heavy, if this person was not Lord Xiao's subordinate, then it was only possible for the two parties to join forces, perhaps, it could also be someone from the capital, in this way, things in the future may be more complicated.
Xiu Yue on the side obviously saw Rong Zhao's worry, stepped forward to hold his hand, looked up and smiled: "No matter what, if you go forward, you will definitely get better." ”
Rong Zhao also smiled, but he looked at the door, the silver needle that suddenly flew over just now, if he was not mistaken, it should have been made by the figure that suddenly flew by.
The two of them went around the backyard again, thinking to see if they could explore some other clues, but everything was clean, there was not even a trace of man-made, Xiuyue opened the door of the backyard, and when she looked up, she saw the little shirt with red eyes that was already crying.
She beckoned and said, "Let's go in and have a look." ”
After saying that, Xiaoshan ran in crying, lying on top of his already stiff body and crying.
The old steward hesitated for a moment before he stepped forward and bent down to make a bow for Xiu Yue. After that, he looked at Rong Zhao, and said: "My lord, if I want to bring the body of the poor maid back to the ground, I will definitely not be buried in Rong Mansion, just ask the adult to let the villain make his own decisions and take it out." That kid, the kid in Xiaoshan, is treating that girl as a sister. As he spoke, even the steward's eyes began to turn red.
Rong Zhao is not an unkind person, it is just a matter of corpses, he is not sure, so he looks at Xiuyue schematically. Xiu Yue lowered his eyes and nodded, and then he said: "Just put it into the soil for peace, and when the silver is not much, I will order someone to send it over." ”
As soon as he spoke, Xiu Yue on the side immediately spoke: "Buy a better coffin and bury it thickly." ”
The old steward's waist bent even more, and he sincerely gave Xiuyue a look.
