The man did not react, and in the dim light, I saw that he was lying there well, without any scars on his face, and his face was not ugly, but his lips were white and chapped, and the whole person was in a state of semi-dehydration.

The girl put the tray on the side of the bed, ready to change the dressing for him, and just as she lifted the quilt to reveal Jiang Xun's body below, I heard Tang Jiao let out a half-exclamation and took a sharp breath and choked back, followed the light to see the situation clearly, and stayed where I was.

His entire upper body* was covered with gauze, almost half of his body was covered with blood, and the area near the right side of his abdomen was soaked with blood, and what was more serious was that the position of his right arm, at this time, was completely empty, only a few thick gauze wrapped directly from his shoulder to his chest.

He ...... He's ...... What about his hands? Tang Jiao was so frightened that he stammered, with a strange expression, "Wasn't it okay before, he was so powerful, how could he be ......?"

"This is good, when the second young master brought him back, he had a huge wound on his right chest and abdomen, injuring his internal organs, and because of the cold entering the body, the various circulation in his body was close to a static state, there were almost no vital signs, he was already half a dead man, and even Mr. Si Ming said that it was a miracle that he survived." The girl said, "Looking at him like this, he must have been injured by the strange magic weapon of that evil way outside the realm." ”

"Evil ways?" Zi didn't ask.

The girl nodded, and while untying the gauze to change the dressing for Jiang Xun, she said: "The Situ family has lived in seclusion in Dongchuan for many years, and has been taking everyone to make some handicrafts for a living. At first, it was just a prank, although everyone was panicked, but nothing major happened, but then people kept disappearing, and the lord sent a lot of people out, but they couldn't find it, and finally because the corpses were rotting and smelling, they attracted a lot of bugs, and they found their whereabouts. The horror was that when they were discovered, all the skin on those people had been stripped naked, and only a bloody pile of rotten flesh remained. ”

The paper coat is not firm, the bark is easy to be eaten by insects, and the smell of pig skin is heavy......

So what's left?

"That incident made a big fuss, but there has been no result, many people moved away because of fear, and then the master handed over the Situ family to the eldest young master due to serious illness, and then it was found out that the person who did these things used was a variant of the Situ family's puppet technique, and it was suspected that our Situ family had an internal ghost, but the identity of the other party was never determined, but it was suspected that it was a servant who suddenly disappeared many years ago, and it is said that he stole the Situ family's art book, and learned a few points and cultivated into the evil path and entered the demon."

Ziwei asked again: "There is no way for the Situ family to take him?" ”

The girl said: "He is not only alone, he has been unpredictable for so many years, he only knows that he often haunts Puxian Village on the outer edge of the Dong River, but it was not until three years ago that our eldest young master took someone to have the first head-to-head confrontation with him, but he didn't even see the other party's face, only saw him wearing a black robe, he would control many puppets to make strange sounds that could make people dizzy, and he would also use a very evil secret weapon, extremely sharp, as long as he touched it, even the stick and blade could be cut in an instant, not to mention that people touched it." In order to protect everyone's safety, the eldest young master dug a deep ditch at the junction of Dong Chuan and Pu Xian, and set up a barrier there to prevent evil from entering, Dong Chuan was a little quieter, but sometimes at night you can hear the puppets over there singing and reciting some weird nursery rhymes. ”

After saying that, the blood stains under her hands had been cleaned up, and some medicinal powder was sprinkled on the terrifying wound, and then she took out a new gauze and looked at Tang Jiao, who was closest to her, "Can you help me lift him up a little?" ”

Tang Jiao was so frightened when he saw the appearance of the wound that he didn't dare to touch him when he got close, Zi didn't help him, and took the initiative to step forward and say, "I'll come." ”

The girl nodded and told him to be gentle.

I couldn't stand it, I had mixed feelings, and I avoided my gaze.

For some reason, from the moment I walked into the room, I had a dull pain in my abdomen, which was especially bad at this time, and I didn't make a sound, and I left the door first.

The wind blew by, and I leaned against the wooden wall behind me and took a few deep breaths, holding my stomach with my hands, lowering my head, blurring my vision for a moment, and then I saw a lot of blood flowing out of my lower body, flowing down to the ground and spreading.

The dream I had in the hospital came back to me clearly, I felt suffocated, I grabbed the clothes under my hands hard, my body was weak, I slid down the wall, and I broke out in a cold sweat. The pain in my abdomen was so bad that I was shivering, confused, and my stomach was twitching, and I wanted to vomit but couldn't.

"Master, Master?"

I heard Ziwei calling me, felt the warmth of his body, was helped up, and struggled to open his eyes. It was like another dream, the pain in my stomach was subsiding, it was no longer so unbearable, and the ground was now clean and there was no trace of blood.

I was in a trance, choking on my chest, suffocating uncomfortably.

"Shopkeeper Shen, are you okay?" Tang asked that after seeing Jiang Xun's injuries, he wrote all the worries and fears of this trip on his face.

I shook my head to signal that he was okay, he and Ziwei both looked disbelieving, I didn't have the strength to comfort them, and I heard the girl say on the side: "If you are unwell, I can go and call Mr. Si Ming over, he is the best doctor we have here." ”

"Thanks, don't bother, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired." I say.

She said, "It is not yet dawn, and since the girl is tired, go back to her room and rest for a while, and if there is anything you can call me at any time, my room is the first room downstairs on the left." ”

I answered, thanked her again, and after she left, I sent Ziwei and Tang Jiao back to rest, returned to the room, didn't go to light the lamp, and lay down on the bed directly, with a slight throbbing pain in the lower abdomen. I rolled over, pulled the quilt face in, wrapped it tightly, and when I closed my eyes, I saw a large patch of bright red and sticky blood, flowing blindly.

My mind was a mess, the baby-like thing I saw in the hospital and the horrific wound on Jiang Xun's body, the two images appeared alternately, I tightened my brows, curled up my body, and when I was dazed and about to sleep, I heard a soft knock on the door in my ears. Because of my weakness and semi-sleepiness, my shoulders trembled, and I did not react immediately, listening to the faint footsteps approaching, and did not stop until I came to my side.

The smell of the man was familiar to me, and it didn't pose any threat, and I didn't move until I felt him sit down on the edge of the bed and put a hand on my head, which for a moment brought a sensation of electric shock, and then I suddenly woke up and rolled over and sat up.

In the darkness, the two faces were close together, only a few centimeters apart, and a pair of eyes looked at each other. He obviously didn't change anything, and the look in his eyes was no different from the gaze he had looked at me in the past eight years, but it took me a while to suddenly discern the person in front of me, "Ziwei? Why are you here? ”

He seemed to be stunned, hurriedly retreated, and stood up in a panic, "I ......"

The words knotted in his throat, and he paused before continuing: "I saw that you had a bad face just now, and I was very worried about you, so I came to take a look." ”

His attitude is not quite right, I am a little dizzy, I raised my hand and touched the place he touched just now, I don't know if it is the reason why my nerves are too sensitive, at this time there is still some very strange numbness, but it is very faint, basically can be ignored.

I looked in the direction of the door, and because of my emotions, I couldn't remember whether I had pinned the latch when I came in.

"Master." He spoke, clasping his hand at his side, "You can sleep a little longer, I'll go back first." ”

"Ziwei." I stopped him, "I have something I want to ask you." ”

I looked at him, "You really stayed by my side after I was in a coma in the hospital, and nothing ever happened in between?" ”

His expression stiffened, his gaze took away from me, and landed somewhere on the ground, and when he refused to speak in the face of me, I knew that he had something to hide, and was about to ask him, when he lowered his head and whispered, "I don't know what happened, and at that time, there were some things that I had forgotten all." ”

"What do you mean?" I don't understand.

"You passed out twice that day, the second time in the ultrasound room, with the doctor, and your conversations were all done alone, and I didn't know anything."

"Why did you pretend nothing had happened when I woke up the second time after the incident?" Everything I experienced that day was not a dream, and I didn't even know this fact clearly until now, so the "fetus" in my womb was also real.

I was horrified, and I felt unreasonable in retrospect, "No, the doctor reacted the same as you, as if he had forgotten everything from before, and the test results for me were replaced with another one." ”

"Ziwei." I said, "You look up at me and tell me what the hell is going on?" ”

Zi Weiyi's hands became tighter and tighter, the bones on the back of his hands bulged outward, as if they wanted to break through the thin layer of skin and flesh to come out, and he himself was also wrapped in a fragile film, he wanted to break free, but he couldn't help it, his mouth was open, and he couldn't speak, as if he was also in a struggle, dragged by something.

"You don't need to worry about me." I stood up and walked to him, my right hand touched the back of his hand, grabbed it from the side, my palm felt cold to the touch, and said to him: "You are what I grew up watching, there has never been a gap between us for so many years, this matter is very important to me, I hope you can be honest with me, I can't figure it out, what reason do you have to hide it from me?" ”
