"Ahh

There were countless screams in the courtyard, and the guards were almost stunned, and a few children threw the fireworks, and they were suddenly frightened.

I also walked quickly in front of Pei Yuanxiu: "Childe! ”

He still stood there, as if he couldn't react for a while, until I walked up to him, and saw his pale face in the light of the fireworks, and his pupils suddenly converged, and suddenly pounced on me.

"Childe!"

I grabbed him.

His heavy body pressed down like a mountain, almost knocking me to the ground, but fortunately, the attendants around me all gathered around me and reached out to help me, I staggered a step, felt his chin hit my shoulder hard, and spat out a mouthful of blood, which was hot on my neck, and made me shiver.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered!

That night, on the night when the thief came into my house to steal, it was also a crossbow arrow that struck the thief in the face and caused him to flee in panic.

No wonder, as soon as I entered the courtyard with Pei Yuanxiu, I had a feeling of panic, but I never knew where that uneasiness came from, it turned out to be them!

It turned out that their target was Pei Yuanxiu!

But why?!

Why did they attack Pei Yuanxiu? Who are they?!

I subconsciously turned my head and looked at the back of my yard, where there was a dark mountain forest, and I couldn't see anything, but the darkness was like a beast with a mouth that would swallow people in one bite.

When I turned around again, I felt Pei Yuanxiu's two strong hands grasping my shoulders, trying to support himself, his face was pale, red blood remained on his lips, and his pale lips trembled slightly; His eyes, though completely darkened, kept staring at me, gasping for air, as if he wanted to say something.

"Green ...... Green ......"

I gritted my teeth and said loudly, "Protect Childe, go into the house!" ”

At this time, those attendants had already surrounded me, while enclosing me and him in the center, while helping us to quickly move into the room, Su Su had already opened the door and cleaned out her small bed, and those people lifted Pei Yuanxiu up and put it up.

As soon as he lay down, he saw that the fluffy snow-white fur on his chest had been stained red with blood, and the red and white were intertwined, which was particularly shocking!

The house has been in a mess, the children in the yard have long been frightened and scattered, and some villagers are watching from afar, but they don't dare to approach, those attendants have lit many candles and oil lamps, illuminating the small room like day, and also illuminating Pei Yuanxiu's bloodless face on the bed.

One of his hands was still holding me.

And my other hand was tightly grasped by Li'er.

She was completely frightened, she hadn't said a word since Pei Yuanxiu was hit by the arrow just now, she kept following us in, holding my hand and guarding the bedside, looking at her father with a pair of eyes with great horror, but she didn't cry.

I was so scared that I couldn't cry.

Although my daughter has traveled north and south and seen a lot of the world, it is the first time for her to really watch her relatives being shot and killed in front of her eyes, and blood is splashed everywhere, which is a nightmare for such a young girl!

I looked at Pei Yuanxiu, then at her, and hurriedly called Su Su: "You take Li'er to sleep in the back room!" ”

Although Su Su was also frightened, she didn't ask much, so she immediately led Li'er to the back room, Li'er didn't resist, but she was not obedient, but she was so frightened that she lost her mind, and she did whatever others asked her to do. When she was brought into the back room, she looked back as she went, until the blue curtain fell, which covered her equally pale little face.

At this time, I turned my head and looked at Pei Yuanxiu, who was lying flat on the bed.

He kept his eyes wide open, gasping for air, and the hand that was gripping my wrist never relaxed, but as his breathing became tighter and tighter, my slender wrist almost had the illusion of being crushed; And as he breathed, I saw his chest, and the bolt was almost completely submerged in his chest, except for the last head outside, reflecting the cold light of the candle flame.

There was some blood on the outside of the wound, but not much, as if it had stopped, but between his snorts, there was a strong smell of blood.

"Green ...... Young Baby ......"

He gasped and slowly called out my name.

I hurriedly squatted down: "Childe? ”

"Young Baby ......"

"Childe, don't speak."

"Young Baby ......"

“……”

"Young Baby ......"

I looked at his eyes, which were almost dark, but still stubborn, twitching and calling my name, before I realized in a trance—

He didn't have anything to say to me, he just called out to me unconsciously.

I immediately realized that something wasn't right.

The part where the crossbow arrow hit is like the heart. The human heart dies at the sight of iron, and there is almost no chance of survival, but he is still alive, and although the wound is bloody, it does not shed too much, and it seems that this wound is not the same as the fatal wound we usually see.

However, even if his injury was unusual, it did not mean a miracle, and his breathing was becoming more and more rapid, and the light in his eyes was slowly fading.

His slender wrist was almost pinched off, and I gritted my teeth and endured the pain from my wrist bones.

I know that he never bears to let me be hurt, even the slightest injury, he will not, but now when he is hovering on the edge of life and death, he keeps calling my name like this, which makes me feel painful, and it seems that it can also make me understand the pain and helplessness he has experienced these days.

Love it or not, but this man saved my daughter after all, and he was my great benefactor!

I suddenly felt a wave of fear, and hurriedly held his hand with my backhand: "Childe! ”

"Young Baby ......"

His voice became smaller and smaller, and his wheezing became weaker and weaker, even if I got so close, I couldn't hear it, and the attendants around me were all so frightened that they knelt down and said in unison: "Childe! ”

“…… Green...... Baby ......"

Seeing that his eyes were almost white, and he could no longer see anything, only his hand was getting harder and harder, and he was holding on to me more and more stubbornly, and my wrist was almost shattered in his palm.

He's like, dying!

At this moment, I suddenly thought of something, leaned into his ear, hesitated, and called softly: "Yuan...... Repair ......"

Suddenly, I felt his whole body tremble.

The hand that was holding me seemed to have sensed it, and slowly let go of me, but it didn't let go of me immediately, but I could clearly feel that his breathing had slowed down a little.

The attendants also seemed to sense something, and came up on their knees, and looked at me one by one with great anticipation, and although no one dared to speak, those eyes seemed to be clearly saying—continue, keep calling him.

I just felt a cold sweat break out in my palm.

However, he gritted his teeth and continued: "Yuan Xiu ......"

This time, his hand loosened a little more, and although he was still holding on to me, there was only an irresistible, gentle force left, and there was a flash of light in those eyes, but he couldn't find focus, as if he was still groping and searching in the dark.

I said softly again, "Yuan Xiu." ”

His eyes flickered a few times, as if a light finally shone in, and after a moment of confusion, he suddenly turned to look at me: "Qingying? ”

Tears poured out of my eyes at once, and fell down with a snap, right in the corners of his eyes, and immediately melted into his eyes, his eyes suddenly seemed to be clear, and even had a little brilliance, and watched my tears slip down his cheeks, his pale lips trembled slightly, and finally, slowly hooked up a touch of arc.

My vision was blurry, I couldn't see clearly, I only felt that everyone around me breathed a long sigh of relief, and even two maids fell to their knees with a weak leg.

In this way, he can be regarded as having passed the first hurdle.

Those guards have been considered capital crimes by now, but I still immediately gave them an order, asking them to strictly guard the house and the surrounding courtyard walls, and not allowing anyone to come closer, protecting Pei Yuanxiu, and also letting them make meritorious contributions.

Who are those people in the dark, it's too late to care about it at this time, but I already understand very well that their target is Pei Yuanxiu, and now Pei Yuanxiu has been hit by an arrow in the chest, I don't know if they will take advantage of the victory to pursue, in case they send someone to kill them again, I am afraid that his life will be suspended.

In order to make meritorious deeds, the guards unsheathed their swords one by one, wound their arrows, and stood guard around the house, and a murderous aura surrounded my small courtyard.

Then, I asked the attendants to cross the river immediately and go to ask for the medicine elder.

Pei Yuanxiu's injury, although it is not immediately fatal now, but how deep the crossbow arrow is, whether it hurts the heart, whether it can be pulled, and how to pull it out, must be seen by the medicine elder before making a decision.

The remaining maids were so frightened that they were about to cry, and they didn't dare to move, but Pei Yuanxiu only turned his head to look at them, and then said in a low voice: "Go out." ”

I looked down at him, "Why?" ”

"Let them all out."

“……”

Seeing that he was so weak that he could barely breathe, he became a little stubborn, but thinking that it was useless for these people to stay, I waved my hand, and the maids withdrew one after another, and closed the door.

In the small room, it was just me and him.

There were many candles and oil lamps lit, and the room was like daylight, but because of the flickering of the fire, it gave people a feeling of being clear and out, and in turmoil, as if his life would be exhausted at any time, or the next moment. I sat on the edge of the bed, and felt his breathing, though faint, but still extended, except for the silver light in my chest, which was dazzling.

At this time, the wrist was gently rubbed.

I looked down and saw him rubbing his thumb against my skin and said softly, "I'll pinch it." ”

“……”

His strength is indeed not small, and it is a matter of life and death, and a few finger marks have been pinched out of my wrist, which were only red and swollen at first, and now they have become bruised.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt."

"Lying...... I can see that. ”

His voice was low, accompanied by a faint gasp, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly as he said this.

But I'm about to cry.

I don't want him dead.

Whatever he did and what he might do, but no matter what, he saved my daughter, raised my departed son, and recreated me, and no matter what, I don't want to see my benefactor die like this.

But what can I do to save his life?

Thinking of this, tears almost burst out of my eyes again.

His other hand, trembling, lifted up to my cheek, and curled his fingers wiped the corners of my eyes: "Don't cry. ”

"Yuan Xiu ......"

He actually laughed, his pale face was like ice, but that smile was like the sun on ice, extremely brilliant and brilliant.

"Before I die, I can hear you call me Yuan Xiu, and I will not live in vain."

“…… You, don't say that. ”

I was speechless, and lowered my head to bury my face in his palm, tears gushing out like beads of broken thread, and in a few moments they wet his palm.

"Don't cry," he said softly, weakly, "The last thing I want to see is ...... you cry."

“……”

"Qingying, do you know what I like to see most in my life?"

"......" I finally stopped crying, raised my head, looked at him with teary eyes, and choked up, "What do you like to see the most?" ”

He looked at me gently: "I see you smiling." ”

“……”

"That's what I love the most, the most beautiful picture I've ever seen in my life."

“……”

At this time, I suddenly felt a wave of fear.

He said "his life", but now he has clearly lived less than half of his life, and he is in the prime of life, so he can't say a lifetime, and he must not say a lifetime! I hurriedly interrupted him: "Don't say it, Yuan Xiu, don't say it." You calm down and rest, I have already sent someone to ask for Yao Lao, and he will come soon. When he comes, heal your wounds, and you'll be fine. ”

You still have a long life to go, and you must not say "one life" here!

Pei Yuanxiu shook his head and smiled softly at me: "But I want to say." ”

“……”

"I have so much to say to you, but I never dare to say it."

“……”

"I'm afraid I'll scare you."

“……”

"If you knew how much I loved you, if you knew how much I wanted you, you would be scared."

"......" I couldn't speak, only shook my head desperately.

You don't want it, don't say it anymore......

"But now, I'm going to sue you."
