Chapter Ninety-Seven: Blood
The torrential rain was like a note, and the sudden thunder exploded in the sky over Pizhou City, and Qianshan Twilight was suddenly awakened, her heart was stuffy and painful, and she even felt a little difficult to breathe.
"Dusk?" Lin Yunmo, who was flipping through the paperwork under the window, ran to the side of the bed in a few steps.
Seeing Qianshan Twilight sit up with a pale face, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his clenched palms trembled slightly, he felt a little unbearable in his heart, reached out and hugged her, and said softly: "Is it a nightmare?" It's okay, it's okay, I'm here!"
Qianshan Twilight took a deep breath, tried to calm her mind, and said anxiously: "I, I just had a nightmare, dreaming that Anning was in a place, a black hole, she was covered in blood, I, I wanted to drag her away, but... However, as soon as she touched her hand, she was pulled into the hole again by a strong force... Go quickly, send someone again!" Her eyes were a little dazed, and she said incoherently, tears falling like beads with broken threads, and smashing onto the brocade quilt.
"Don't worry, it's just a nightmare, I'll send someone there right away, okay?" Lin Yunmo wiped away her tears and comforted gently.
Qianshan Twilight shook her head in a panic, and suddenly felt that her clenched palm was a little strangely sticky, she shook it, slowly spread out her palm, and found that the palm was actually a red and piercing bloodstain.
Lin Yunmo was shocked when he saw this, his heart suddenly tightened, and he asked hurriedly: "But what's wrong? I'm going to find Langzhong!"
"Don't, I'm fine" Qianshan Twilight stared at the palm of his hand with a face full of confusion and horror: "This should be... It's not my blood, is it, it's peaceful?" she said slowly, her scalp tingling.
Lin Yunmo also felt that things were a little inexplicably weird, so he stabilized his mind and said in a deep voice: "I'll go to find her in person, don't think about it, rest well, and wait for me to come back!"
The eastern sky is white, the rain is gradually collecting, the rain is ticking along the blue-gray eaves, ticking on the bluestone street, the rain and fog in the distance, and the humidity spreads around.
Where can Qianshan Twilight sleep, and told Liu Meng to leave the door of the inn and wait, she walked around the house restlessly, her head getting more and more dizzy.
Liu Mengli suddenly pushed the door in, and his face was a sad look that couldn't be concealed: "Princess, Your Highness has brought the county lord of Anning back, just now... It's in the side room!" She looked a little embarrassed.
"Take me there!" said Twilight Chiyama in surprise.
Liu Mengli didn't move, she hesitated, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, Your Highness let the princess rest before leaving!" Qianshan Twilight suddenly had doubts, and walked out straight out despite Liu Mengli's obstruction.
When she walked into the side room, the violent color in Lin Yunmo's eyes had not yet dissipated, and following his line of sight, she saw the tranquility lying on the bed, her hair was messy, the scars on her cheeks were narrow and hideous, and the blood was mottled.
Lin Yunmo grabbed Qianshan Twilight, and his voice was hoarse and low: "Twilight.. Tranquility, she...."
Qianshan Twilight waved away Lin Yunmo's hand and walked to the bed without saying a word, her heart was like a sharp blade slashing through the pain to the bones, and she couldn't cry anymore.
Before Lang Zhong arrived, Liu Mengli hurriedly fetched water, and Qianshan Twilight soaked the veil, wanting to wipe the blood on An Ning's face.
But she didn't want to, before she could touch An Ning's cheeks, she opened her eyes suddenly, her eyes were red, flashing with crazy light, and she screamed hysterically and knocked off the silk handkerchief in Qianshan Twilight's hand, and shrank in the corner and shook into a ball.
"Don't be afraid, I'm Sister Twilight,... Qianshan Twilight choked up and slowly stretched out her hand.
"Get out of here!" An Ning screamed miserably, but he grabbed Qianshan Twilight's arm violently and bit down hard.
Qianshan Twilight bit her lip fiercely and suppressed it desperately, and said in a trembling voice, "An Ning, I, I'm Sister Twilight." ”
But I don't want to, the peace of mind at this moment is completely lost, like a bloodthirsty beast, biting Qianshan Twilight's arm fiercely and refusing to let go.
In an instant, Qianshan Dusk's arm was bitten and the flesh was blurred, Lin Yunmo was distressed when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward, ruthlessly, and knocked An Ning unconscious with a knife.
Qianshan Twilight withdrew her arm in despair, her heart was uncomfortable, Lin Yunmo supported her from behind, and saw that her arm was already peeled open, and the blood slid down her arm to the palm, and finally dripped to the ground.
"Are you stupid?" Lin Yunmo had tears in his eyes and roared in distress.
Twilight Chiyama threw herself into his arms and cried heartbreakingly, almost fainting. Lin Yunmo sighed, leaned over and picked her up, and when he walked to the door, he turned his head to look back at the tranquility on the bed, and suddenly felt sad and bloody.
"Liu Mengli, you just keep the peace here!" he said with red and swollen eyes.
Liu Mengli had tears on her face, and her heart was also sad.
Back in the room, Lin Yunmo put Qianshan Twilight on the bed, then found wound medicine, muslin, and carefully bandaged the wound.
"Who the hell did this?" asked Qianshan Twilight suddenly, coldly, her eyes flashing with bone-eating hatred.
Lin Yunmo took out a bloodstained yellow peace blessing from his belt, his heart was dripping with blood, and he said in a dumb voice: "When she saw An Ning in the cave, she clutched this in her hand, it should be the murderer's belongings." ”
Qianshan Twilight took it over, flattened the peace blessing, and then carefully opened a corner, there was a strip of cloth in the peace blessing, on which the surname and the birth date were clearly written.
Seeing this, Lin Yunmo's eyes were full of yin owl light, and he gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, even if I dig three feet into the ground, I will find these beasts, chop them up piece by piece and feed them to the dogs!"
"Father-in-law, how is the mother-in-law good?" Qianshan Twilight looked at Lin Yunmo and asked worriedly, An Ning is the pearl of King Duan's palm, if it is told the truth, I don't know if they can bear it?
"Only, hide it for the time being!" At this time, Lin Yunmo's mind gradually cleared up, and after a pause for a while, he continued: "In the matter of tranquility, I feel that there is something very suspicious. ”
Qianshan asked puzzledly, "What's suspicious?"
Lin Yunmo said coldly: "I didn't see Duan Zhijun!"
"Duan Zhijun is the general who guards the city, and the new monarch will succeed him, if he is busy with affairs, he will not have time to take care of peace, isn't this a normal thing?" Qianshan Dusk said after thinking for a while.
Lin Yunmo shook his head, the cold light in his eyes shimmered: "Duan Zhijun's official position is relatively idle, and it is generally not his turn to defend the city, An Ning has never been out of Chishui, and he has always regarded An Ning as his own sister, if he learned that An Ning came to Pizhou, he would definitely escort him, but now he did not come!"
