123. Child

"Brother Yuan." Jiang Shuyao tightened his clothes and called softly in front of Jiang Yuan's door.

In the end, it was a mistake. Jiang Shuyao sighed silently while waiting outside the door, rubbing his hands. It was too cold at night.

Jiang Yuan quickly responded: "Fourth sister? He pushed open the door and saw Jiang Shuyao standing in the cool breeze, so he hurriedly turned sideways and let people in: "It's so late, hasn't the fourth sister slept yet?" ”

"I can't sleep today." Jiang Shuyao thought that Jiang Yuan was reading, but at a glance, there were no books spread out on the table: "What is Brother Yuan doing?" ”

Jiang Yuan shook his head: "I'm thinking about something." ”

Coincidentally, she was also thinking about things. Jiang Shuyao was curious: "What happened?" "What is it that can make a top student put down his books?

Jiang Yuan really needs someone to help think about it. He closed the door and looked left and right, feeling that no one should notice, so he approached Jiang Shuyao and whispered: "Fourth sister, let me tell you, you don't have to tell others." ”

Still mysterious? Jiang Shuyao originally felt strange and wanted to make a joke, but Jiang Yuan frowned, with doubts and puzzles, and imperceptible anger. Jiang Shuyao got serious and nodded, "Okay." You say, the fourth sister will help you keep it secret. ”

"It's not that I can't say it." Jiang Yuan's face wrinkled in confusion and muttered in a low voice. He didn't know what it was, but he really didn't know what to do, and he was afraid that it would backfire if he wanted people to help.

"Huh?" Jiang Shuyao was puzzled. She didn't hear clearly.

"It's fine." Jiang Yuan shook his head. As if he had made up his mind, he took a deep breath and lifted the curtains that spread out around the bed, revealing the scene on his bed: "Fourth sister, see for yourself." ”

Jiang Shuyao covered her mouth in surprise. I saw a small bulge on the bed. In an instant, countless thoughts crossed Jiang Shuyao's mind. This...... Looks like a humanoid? Moreover, it has not yet shown its head.

Jiang Yuan hid someone? Still want to kill people?

Facing Jiang Shuyao's shocked gaze, Jiang Yuan was slightly embarrassed, stepped forward and showed his head to the man, explaining: "I just heard the fourth sister call me, I panicked, and I covered the quilt with my hand. ”

Jiang Shuyao: ......

She looked at the man intently. It was only from the shape under the quilt that he could tell that he was not very old, but now that he showed his face, he saw that it was true. Because he had just been masked, his small face was flushed, and there was only a little baby fat on his cheeks, and his overall face was no more than the size of a palm. The skin was still white and tender, and the burlap that almost covered half of the forehead was shocking.

It looks like the situation is serious. Jiang Shuyao's expression was solemn, he looked at Jiang Yuan, and his tone was a little anxious: "What's the matter?" She remembered that Jiang Yuan didn't have such a big child around her. Besides, looking at the child's situation, it is obviously not like it was caused by Jiang Yuan.

She hurried forward and lifted the quilt, only to realize that there was more than one wound on his body. Jiang Yuan should have been treated by someone for this child, his hands were also wrapped in sackcloth, and there were obvious abrasions on his neck.

"Did you have his wounds treated?" Seeing that the kid was trying to hide in the quilt with his eyes closed because of the movement of being lifted off the quilt, Jiang Shuyao covered him and asked in a low voice. No, even if you tell her Jiang Yuan, you have to be careful, according to Jiang Yuan's temperament, you won't let people bandage him.

Sure enough, Jiang Yuan shook his head: "No, I helped him deal with it myself." ”

It's a bit bizarre to say. Today, Jiang Yuan went out to buy books on a whim, when he was walking on the street when a carriage drove in front of him. Jiang Yuan didn't care, but the moment he looked up, he saw a cloud of unknown things get down from the carriage and pounce on him.

Jiang Yuan: ?

He subconsciously turned sideways and saw the thing slamming on the ground. Jiang Yuan found out that it was actually a four or five-year-old boy.

It was close to dusk, and there were few people on the street, so no one noticed the movement. Jiang Yuan stood quietly in place, watching the child raise his bloody head and silently say something to him.

The eyes are the most direct window of expression of emotions. Jiang Yuan didn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly before he could react to what he said. His eyes were not covered with blood, but were scared, and begging.

What he said was, please, help me.

The carriage in front of it quickly stopped, as if sensing that something had fallen, and the man sitting on the wheel of the carriage came down to inspect it. Before Jiang Yuan's body could react, he picked up the person in front of him and hid sideways in the alley next to him.

Perhaps in a hurry, the man only got down and glanced behind him in front of the carriage, and then took two more steps. Jiang Yuan didn't dare to run too far to make a sound, he was here at the mouth of the alley, hugged the child in his arms tightly, and stayed nervously in the blind corner of his sight and didn't dare to move, even closed his eyes, and only listened to the sound silently. After all, some people are very sensitive to the line of sight, and if they are not careful, they may be discovered.

As long as the man walked a few more steps, he could see the blood behind the carriage. If you look at the blood, you'll be able to find them soon. Just when Jiang Yuan held his breath and his heart beat faster and faster, the man stopped. Probably thinking that it was unlikely that something would fall, soon, the footsteps sounded again, this time, in the opposite direction. In the end, it wasn't until the sound of the carriage gradually faded away that Jiang Yuan's heartbeat recovered.

Jiang Yuan was still standing quietly against the wall, and he could feel the blood on the child's body gradually soaking through his clothes. It's strange that at this time, Jiang Yuan actually calmed down strangely. Thankfully, he was wearing dark clothes, which would not be too noticeable even if he was stained with blood. It's just that. What should this kid do?

Jiang Yuan didn't know how long he had waited. It was only when he was sure that the man would not return that he wrapped his coat tightly, protected the little boy, and left the place with the man in his arms. However, after saying that sentence before, the child stopped moving, and Jiang Yuan took the time to take a look and found that he seemed to be unconscious. Helpless, Jiang Yuan could only walk with people in his arms.

After confirming that he was safe for the time being, Jiang Yuan's heart was entangled with countless questions. What is the identity of this child? Looking at his appearance, he should just be an ordinary child, so why is he in the carriage? And why, jumping from the carriage?

didn't dare to expose this child to people easily, Jiang Yuan didn't dare to go back to the house until it got dark. It's just that he was running fast on the way back to his yard, and the little guy in his yard only thought that he was holding a book and was in a hurry to go back to the house to read, so he didn't care, so he had to chase after him with a smile: "Young master, you run slowly." ”

Jiang Yuan had to rejoice, fortunately, his room had wound medicine.
