Chapter 46: A Candle in the Night
The tip of the knife in Wang Xue's hand was aimed at Chen Ruhai's heart.
As soon as she thrust down a little harder, the man lying on the ground would die.
But when it came, she hesitated.
It's no wonder that even if the original owner kills someone, she never does it herself.
Not to mention her, an old social animal from modern society?
She's been killed in the game, but that's just a game after all.
Wang Xue's hand holding the knife trembled a little, this was not only the instinctive resistance of the body, but also the uncontrollable struggle in the depths of her heart.
Just as she was struggling to kill the bastard, a large hand suddenly wrapped around her.
Warm and powerful.
Wang Xue's body stiffened, then turned her head, and met those deep eyes like an abyss.
Huo Lingyun didn't speak, but took out the knife in Wang Xue's hand with his other hand.
When.
With the sound of the knife falling to the ground, Wang Xue suddenly became weak, her legs were weak, and she was a little unstable.
Fortunately, when she fell backwards, a pair of strong arms caught her.
"Am I cowardly?" Wang Xue couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"If you can't kill someone, it doesn't prove that you are weak, since ancient times, great people may not have blood on their hands, but they can also become heroes in the eyes of the people, as long as there is justice in their hearts, they are strong."
"Really? You didn't fool me? β
"Nope."
"Okay."
Wang Xue nodded, but frowned again: "Then what to do with this bastard?" He's hurt so many people, I don't want to cheapen him. β
"It's simple, if you don't worry, leave it to me."
Wang Xue looked up at his angular face, swallowed quietly, and said, "Then what are you going to do?" β
"The wicked have their own grinding." Huo Lingyun only said these seven words, and then didn't say any more.
Wang Xue thought about it and didn't ask any more.
"That's right!" Wang Xue patted her head and almost forgot about it.
She hurriedly turned around and came to the three people who had blocked a lot of injuries for her, at this time Wu Sheng had already bandaged their wounds, and when she saw Wang Xue coming, she hurriedly got up and said, "County Lord, they are all just flesh wounds, and they are not life-threatening. β
"Oh, that's good, that's good, if they die for me, then I'm really guilty."
Qing'er grew her mouth, and she really couldn't believe that this kind of words came out of the mouth of her master, it was simply true.
"Qing'er, what's wrong with you?" Xi'er leaned over and asked in a whisper.
Qing'er swallowed and smeared, then held Xi'er's hand with some emotion, and said seriously: "Xi'er, you are following the county lord now, you are really with the right person." β
Wang Xue didn't care about the next thing, but handed it over to Huo Lingyun.
Huo Lingyun asked his subordinates to take the half-dead Chen Ruhai away, and when he came, he would call a few more people to come over and deal with it.
When Huo Lingyun was over there to order things, Wang Xue also took a chair and sat down.
She was really tired just now, and now as soon as her tense nerves relaxed, she suddenly felt exhausted.
And at this moment, the emotionless voice of the system sounded in her head at the right time.
Bite~!
[System: The host has successfully completed the task of 'helping the heroine solve the problem of family affairs', and now starts to draw props.] γ
Immediately, the red, blue and black turntable appeared in Wang Xue's mind again.
Because she was so tired, Wang Xue just said a simple sentence, closed her eyes and began to rest.
After a few moments, the turntable slowly stopped.
Wang Xue subconsciously glanced at the area where the turntable stopped, just this look, Wang Xue immediately came to the spirit!
Because this time the prop she got turned out to be Yong! Long! Target!
It's just perfect to break the fett!
Who let her have no props in her hands now, and now she can have a permanent prop, which is simply a relief for her.
Wang Xue was interested and began to wait for the permanent props given to her by the system.
[System: Congratulations to the host for gaining permanence. Prop. γ
γPermanent. Item Name: A candle flame in the night. γ
[A candle flame in the night: After using this item, the host can light a candle in the heart at any time, after the candle is lit, the host can gain insight into the psychological activities of any creature within a radius of 100 meters centered on the host, but only one or two biological units can be locked at a time to check the inner activities of the other party, once a day, limited to 1 minute. γ
This prop...
Although it is permanent, why does Wang Xue feel a little chicken?
Well, maybe you can use it later.
And with her understanding of the system, all the rewards given by the system can basically be used later.
Anyway, if you can get permanent items, that's good.
Putting away her thoughts, Wang Xue was in no mood to rest, stretched her waist, and stood up.
At this time, Huo Lingyun's side was also resolved.
And when she got up, Huo Lingyun was already walking towards them.
After coming to Wang Xue's side, Huo Lingyun said, "I should go." β
"Is the next time we meet in the autumn hunting grounds?" Wang Xue asked.
"What do you know?" Huo Lingyun looked at Wang Xue in surprise, he didn't expect her to ask like this.
Wang Xue shrugged, "I don't know anything, and I don't bother to know, I'm just asking you if the next time I want to see you, will you be on the hunting ground." β
"Yes." Huo Lingyun nodded, paused, he took a rope wearing a golden bead from his wrist and put it on Xiao Tuanzi's hand, "If you want to see me in the future, you can use this golden bead to go to the camp tent we are temporarily stationed in ten miles outside the city to find me." β
After speaking, he stood up, looked at Wang Xue, and said nothing.
And Wang Xue also looked up at him.
The two just looked at each other silently, and neither of them spoke.
After a long time, Huo Lingyun turned around and said, "Let's go." β
Just walked to the door, and there was a childish voice from behind him, "Are you my father?" β
Huo Lingyun paused, didn't speak, just nodded slightly, and walked out of the room.
Xiao Tuanzi's eyes brightened, and he excitedly pulled the corner of Wang Xue's clothes, "Mother, he is my father's father, so I am also a child with a father, and my father is still a general!" β
Wang Xue smiled helplessly, stretched out her hand and rubbed his head, but her eyes were still looking at the position at the door.
So he's sort of... Admit it?
So when is he going to marry him, he won't just fool the past with such a black and white plan.
Then she won't say yes!
But speaking of which, she really made a lot of money this time.
not only won this gambling house, but also won a piece of land that Chen Ruhai bought for hundreds of thousands.
That's right!
Wang Xue thought of something, so she pulled Xiao Tuanzi out of the room and walked towards another room.
The door was locked, and after thinking about it, Wang Xue turned back to the previous room, and after rummaging for a while, she really found a key.
Come to this door, insert the key into the lock hole and twist it gently.
I heard a click, and the lock opened.
