Chapter 231: Injured Again
The shadow woke up from the coma, and gradually looked at the ceiling in front of him, and suddenly felt that his throat was dry and uncomfortable, and his head was also very dizzy and painful, as if it was about to crack.
He didn't know how many days he had been in a coma, except that he remembered that he wanted to numb himself and drank a lot of alcohol, and he couldn't even remember how he left the liquor shop, how he was beaten or whatever.
Just when he was still thinking about it in distress, the door of the room was opened, and Jiang Yan walked in with a bowl of medicine, now she looks very haggard, and her eyes are still red and swollen, it seems that she has been taking care of herself these days, and she has very little time to sleep. The shadow immediately closed and couldn't help but look at Jiang Yan's current appearance, he felt that his heart was full of self-blame at the moment, and he was very sorry for her, it was all because of him that he made her originally moving and lovely look like this.
Soon, Jiang Yan sat on the edge of the bed where he was lying with a medicine bowl, scooped up a spoonful of medicinal juice and began to bring it to his mouth. Knowing that he couldn't pretend anymore, the shadow slowly opened his eyes, looked at the emaciated woman in front of him, and struggled to sit up, but the pain of the hangover immediately pierced his bone marrow like a sharp needle, making him have to grit his teeth.
Shadow sat up with difficulty, sighed and muttered, "Why did you bring me back here, I'm a useless person who doesn't deserve your sympathy." â
"Why do you always say that you are a useless person, is it because of Brother Long's death that you have become so depressed?" Jiang Yan said with some scolding: "I sue you, the grief in my heart is no less than yours." He was the first person I fell in love with, and although we hadn't met, it was in my heart. He has always been a hero who stands up to the sky, and you can't understand the feeling of him in your heart, but now, our first face is life and death, what do you say my heart is like. As she spoke, Jiang Yan buried her head on the shoulders of the shadow and began to cry, and the tears quickly wet the latter's clothes.
The shadow stood still, motionless. Let Jiang Yan lean on his shoulder and cry, he really wanted to comfort her, saying that he was Long Tian. The news that she was dead was actually just a deception to her, so she shouldn't be so sad... But he can't open his mouth no matter what, he is willing to become an inconspicuous ordinary person in order to forget all about the past. Allow yourself to forget your past. But if he admits his previous identity, will he think of his previous memories again, or is it just buried in his heart, wanting to forget the love that still can't be forgotten...
After a while, Jiang Yan gradually stopped sobbing, quickly broke away from the shadow's shoulder, and said slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm very uncomfortable." So..."
"It's okay, I can understand that. That feeling of loss. The shadow said flatly, but a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and then walked over to Jiang Yan's side, "After bothering for so many days, I should leave." â
"Where are you going, do you still want to live that kind of depressed and depressed life, does the death of Brother Long make you think about it so much." Jiang Yan looked at the back of the shadow and shouted in a hoarse voice.
"I don't know, wherever I go, even if it's where." The shadow said sadly, "I am sad, not because of his death. â
"If it weren't for Brother Long's death, then why would you still be so depressed?" Jiang Yan shouted suspiciously, but in exchange for the silence of the shadow, she knew that the latter was unwilling to answer her question, so she changed the subject and said: "Why do you want to live in such a depressed and depressed way, instead of finding an errand to do and start a new life?" â
Then her eyes gradually softened: "My restaurant just has an errand for you to do, five copper coins a day, are you willing to do it?" â
"Whatever." The shadow still said flatly
"You don't want to ask me what I want you to do?" Jiang Yan was suddenly puzzled, usually people who come to work first ask what kind of work they want to do before deciding whether to do it or not, unlike him who agreed very rashly.
"I'll do anything, as long as I have alcohol to drink, I don't care if I don't get paid."
"Wine? Don't you know how serious the injuries are in your body? The doctor said that if you don't stop drinking, your injuries will continue to worsen. Jiang Yan said angrily, but there was a hint of concern in her tone.
"You don't have to worry about my injuries, you just have to give me wine, and leave without me." The shadow said lightly, with a hint of persistence in his tone, as if he would really leave without hesitation if he didn't give him a drink.
"Alright! But you have to refrain from it, your injury..."Jiang Yan said compromisedly.
"Why do you care about me, is it because of Long Tian's relationship?" Shadow shifted the topic asked.
"Why do you ask?"
"It's nothing...", as he spoke, Shadow picked up the potion on the table and drank it down. Since then, Shadow has been working as a handyman in the Jiang Family Restaurant, he works silently every day, never talking much, so he has few friends in the restaurant, and even the sense of zĂ i is very weak, and you don't know when it comes out from behind you.
And every time he sends money, Shadow never looks at those copper coins, he only looks at whether there is wine, he needs to use wine to numb himself, Jiang Yan will always persuade him to drink less, but he just doesn't listen, and the guide has vomited blood inexplicably many times, but he doesn't care, Jiang Yan has nothing to do about it...
âŚâŚ
In the blink of an eye, almost two years have passed, and under Jiang Yan's silent concern during this period, the depressed will in his heart has weakened a lot, and the whole person has become more cheerful, but his words are still very few, except for Jiang Yan, he never talks too much to others.
And in the past two years, the war situation on the mainland has deteriorated a lot, at first the demons finally began to act after being quiet for a while, but there were very few people dispatched, and they were quickly extinguished by the human side, giving people the feeling that they were tempting, in short, the smoke of gunpowder before the battle was getting thicker and thicker...
Sure enough, not long after, the demon's offensive gradually became stronger, and finally after a period of temptation. They began to attack in a big way, because they found one thing, and that was that the Dark Demon Emissary had not appeared so far. And their whereabouts are unknown, so they dare to attack in a big way, after all, the battle in the Heroes Guild shocked them a lot, and from that battle to now, Lognes, Nicholas and Kevin Osayi have not shown any signs of return. After that, the demons also sent people to look for the traces of the dark demon messenger, but they couldn't find it, just like his whole person completely disappeared from the mainland.
During the battle. Due to Long Xiaoqian's call, many hidden powerhouses on the continent have been dispatched, but they still can't resist the attack of the demons. It's just that the pace of their attack has slowed down a lot, because not only them, but also many hidden races in the demon world have appeared, so they are at a disadvantage. Or on the human side...
In Seabreeze City, where the shadows are. The smoke of the battle is also a lot thicker, because the business of Sea Breeze City belongs to the Jiang family best, almost most of the income in the city falls into their hands, the family created by the three people who have the same Xinggang realm as Jiang Feixiong is very angry, and in the end, because of the relationship of interests, the three families united to put pressure on the Jiang family, and destroyed the Jiang family's restaurant shop in Sea Breeze City, and I don't know how many people were killed or injured...
At this time, he was in a restaurant of the Jiang family. Jiang Feixiong was sitting at his desk at the moment listening to his report, and from his face, he looked very bad.
"Chang Li, Wang He, Luo Tianxing. The three of you actually joined forces to attack our Jiang family, okay, I couldn't have the same knowledge as you at the beginning, but now you are forcing me, don't blame me for being rude. After Jiang Feixiong listened to his subordinates' report, he slapped his palm on the table angrily, and suddenly sawdust was scattered. He is the strongest among the four, and he did not intervene in the dispute between the three of them when there was a dispute, but gradually grew stronger by them, but now the three of them have joined forces to resist him, so how can he not be angry.
"Shopkeeper, you dissipate your anger, since they dare to make a move against us, as long as you give an order, we will immediately start a war with them." The report's subordinate also said resentfully, Jiang Feixiong doesn't like others to call him the head of the family or something, it is easy to alienate the relationship, so others call him the shopkeeper.
You go down first, I'll think about it later, after all, our opponents are three families, and we are easy to lose if we want to fight. Jiang Feixiong waved his hand and explained.
"Yes!" The subordinate retreated, met Jiang Yan who came to visit his father at the door, called out to the eldest lady and left.
"Yan'er, why are you here?" Jiang Feixiong said in a soft tone, without the slightest look of anger just now.
"Dad, let me come to see you, I heard about what happened recently, the Chang family, the Luo family and the Wang family are so despicable that they actually joined forces to suppress us, but don't work too hard, be careful of your body." Jiang Yan also had a resentful face, and in the end she didn't forget to care about her father's body.
"Hey, haven't you been caring about that kid called Shadow lately, why do you care about me instead?" Jiang Feixiong teased that he is not the kind of person who forces his daughter to marry the right person, and her love should be her own decision, so even if she likes an ordinary person, he will not object to anything.
"I hate Dad, how can you talk about your daughter like that." Jiang Yan's fist smashed on his father's body without strength, "Although the shadow is much more cheerful, he is still the same, and he doesn't talk much, he only knows how to work or something." â
"In this way, if you like him, father and I have no objection to you being together, after all, this is your choice." Jiang Feixiong touched his daughter's hair and said, Jiang Yan didn't refute anything, after this period of contact, she really felt that she liked this silent shadow a little, but unfortunately the other party was like a piece of wood, so she didn't know what to say.
"There's something I want to warn you of." At this time, Jiang Feixiong regained his serious appearance, stood up and looked at the window and said: "I feel that the shadow is not simple, and sometimes it inadvertently gives me the illusion of extreme danger..."
âŚâŚ
Coming out of her father's study, Jiang Yan's face has been full of doubts, the last words her father said made her a little incomprehensible, she has been with the shadow for nearly two years, she didn't notice a trace of something wrong from him, could it be that his father is thinking too much?
Jiang Yan walked down from the upper floor, and found that there were many people gathered on the first floor, and there were some angry shouts, she felt that the voice was very familiar, and realized that something bad had happened, so she immediately ran over, and saw a scene that made him very angry.
I saw that Chang Wei was constantly laughing and sarcastically mocking the shadow, and the words were very ugly, if it was an ordinary person, he would have been unable to stand it, but the shadow was standing silently on the side at this time, no matter what they said, there was no expression on their faces.
The shadow's face was stained with some wine, and the wine dripped down his cheeks to the ground, and there were also some leftovers and vegetable juices on the gray clothes, which were stuck to the wine and vegetables on the table after they were blown away, obviously Chang Wei and the others came to make trouble. And in addition to Chang Wei, there was also a man in white who was sitting on the seat drinking wine, quietly watching the farce in front of him, this man Jiang Yan knew, he was the most powerful person in the younger generation of the Luo family, and he had the realm of the middle of the Heavenly Order.
After insulting for a while, Chang Wei saw that the face of this person who had been constantly beaten and scolded before and would not fight back at all did not change in the slightest, and said fiercely: "Why haven't you said a word after being scolded for so long?" â
Only then did the shadow reply lightly, "I don't dare." Jiang Yan couldn't believe it after hearing this, she thought that the shadow had regained some self-confidence after this time, but who knew that he was still the same as before, and suddenly the status of the shadow in her heart dropped a lot.
Chang Wei felt extremely satisfied in his heart when he heard this, and said in a sarcastic tone: "You don't even have the courage to do this? â
"I'm a useless wretch, and they all call me a useless shadow."
"Useless shadows? Haha, you're such a useless waste. Chang Wei and the others immediately laughed, and this laughter was very harsh in Jiang Yan's ears.
"Let's go, here I finally saw that the Jiang family still has such a useless waste, haha." After Chang Wei finished speaking, he shouted respectfully to Luo Xing and prepared to leave.
"Wait, you haven't paid yet?" The shadow said suddenly.
"Give money? Are you living impatiently? One of Chang Wei's subordinates shouted.
"I don't want to die, I don't want to starve to death, if you leave without paying the bill, it will be tantamount to breaking my job." As soon as the shadow finished saying this, a fist hit him, but he didn't even move, he didn't even frown, just stood there and beat them.
"Stop!" Jiang Yan, who was in the crowd, couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly shouted out and wanted to go out to stop it, but was stopped by Chang Wei, "Jiang Yan, they're just making a small fuss, let's not interfere, take a good look." â
"You..." Jiang Yan was so angry that she couldn't speak, at this time she saw someone take out a knife and stab it into the shadow's body under her horrified gaze, blood flowed out instantly, but the shadow still didn't say a word.
It wasn't until his body was stabbed seven or eight times that the subordinates stopped stabbing the knife in their hands, looked at the shadow in disbelief, and only heard the shadow still say in a flat tone: "You guys have fought enough, can you pay the bill?" â
Luo Xing on the side felt unconfident that the shadow would not be afraid of pain, and he kicked the shadow without believing in evil, but the latter only retreated a few steps, but he flew out and smashed against the wall, seeing the horror on the faces of the people around him, Luo Xing knew who he was, but now he couldn't get any bargain in the hands of this person called Shadow.
Luo Xing realized that he had lost a lot of face, and hated the person in front of him who made him suffocate, and immediately smashed it again, but before his fist hit the shadow, he suddenly felt a suffocation in his throat, and his whole feet were lifted off the ground. He looked at the figure in front of him who had lifted himself up, and his body was covered in blood, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of fear in his heart.
"Can you pay the bill?" The shadow said very coldly, but Luo Xing saw a trace of red light in his eyes, although the red light disappeared quickly, it left him with endless fear, because he could feel that the brutal murderous aura was incomparably murderous, and he immediately quickly took out the money on his body and handed it all to the shadow.
After the shadow got the money, he let go of the raised Luo Xing, and turned around and left directly, not caring at all whether Luo Xing would sneak attack him. The latter really didn't dare to have any thoughts of revenge after breathing in the fresh air, the shock that the shadow gave him just now was too great, and he immediately called his own people to turn around and leave, he didn't dare to stay in this ghost place for a moment, Chang Wei quickly followed him away when he saw it.
