Chapter 64: The Man in Black is Dead!
The sky was white, the sun was rising, and the golden light shone through the hole
Xu Ruoxue rubbed her eyes, took a deep breath and prepared to get up.
I suddenly found myself leaning on Shen Chuhan's arms.
"Sixth Brother ......" Shen Chuhan was not awake at this time.
Xu Ruoxue carefully removed the hand he had placed on her body.
When she moved, Shen Chuhan felt the movement and opened his eyes very vigilantly.
"Are you awake?" Shen Chuhan saw the person in front of him clearly, and his sharp eyes instantly converged.
Xu Ruoxue nodded, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, and she lowered her head and left his embrace.
Shen Chuhan looked at her shy appearance with his head down, and he was slightly stunned for a moment.
"Sixth brother, what are you looking at?" Seeing that Shen Chuhan didn't move for a long time, Xu Ruoxue stretched out his hand and shook his eyes.
"It's fine." Shen Chuhan coughed lightly, then began to tidy up his clothes and got up slowly.
Seeing this, Xu Ruoxue hurriedly helped him out of the cave.
The two looked at the cliff, and neither of them spoke for a while.
Shen Chuhan visually measured the distance, and it was a little difficult to jump directly from under the cliff.
If you are unscathed and alone, you will have a chance to give it a try.
Now he has injuries on his body, and there is a lifelike snow that is probably a little difficult.
Above the cliffs.
"Young Master, there are blood stains here!" Ling Shuang dragged the arm in his hand and pointed to the trees near the cliff and said.
At this time, a group of officers and soldiers on the cliff were looking for Shen Chuhan and Xu Ruoxue everywhere, and Shen Chuyan was the leader, followed by Ling Shuang, who was guiding the way.
When Ling Shuang returned to the mansion yesterday, she hurriedly ran to Shen Zong for help.
Shen Chuyan happened to be there, so he immediately took the officers and soldiers to the outside of the city.
He and his people have been searching all night, but they have not found the whereabouts of Shen Chuhan and the others.
However, Shen Chuyan followed the mark of the horse's hooves and found a bandit's den, and learned from the bandit's den that five people asked them to help arrest people yesterday, and they disappeared after seeing people fall off the cliff.
Shen Chuhan took people to level the cottage.
Then they began to search for people on the cliff that the bandits had said.
Shen Chuyan saw some blood stains on the ground, so he looked up and looked around and said, "Let's look carefully next to each other to see if there are any other clues." ”
Looking at the blood stains that had dried up in the wind, Shen Chuyan's heart couldn't help but tighten.
Did you get hurt?
From Ling Shuang, he had already learned that Shen Chuhan was injured, but he didn't know how Xu Ruoxue was now, where could the two seriously injured people go?
Now that the cliff is so steep, the chances of surviving the fall are slim.
But if you want to see people in life and corpses in death, you must always follow the clues before you can send people down to find them.
Shen Chuyan was distraught searching, and suddenly noticed the sword marks on the cliff one by one.
A bad premonition rose in his heart, and he immediately summoned the man: "Prepare the rope, go down from here!" ”
When the person behind him heard this, he immediately took out the rope he had prepared in advance and began to slowly slide down the cliff in an orderly manner.
Shen Chuhan, a person who practices martial arts, has excellent eyesight, and just as he and Xu Ruoxue were discussing how to go up, he suddenly saw several figures flashing on the cliff.
"Don't be silent yet!" Shen Chuhan said cautiously.
Xu Ruoxue looked puzzled and asked in a low voice, "What happened?" ”
"Someone." Shen Chuhan didn't have time to explain, so he grabbed Xu Ruoxue's hand and went directly around the cave, walked to the grass not far away and hid.
"Could it be that Ling Shuang is looking for someone to save us!" Xue Ruoxue guessed.
Shen Chuhan shook his head: "Now I don't know if the person who comes is friend or foe, it's better to be cautious." ”
When Xu Ruoxue heard this, she felt that it made sense, and nodded next to Shen Chuhan and hid in the deep grass.
"There are footprints here!" The man who came down from the cliff exclaimed.
Xu Ruoxue suddenly became nervous, she was in a hurry to hide just now, and she didn't have time to deal with the traces they left behind.
For a while, Xu Ruoxue's wheezing sound not only intensified, but she was afraid of the enemy when she came, and when the time came, she and Shen Chuhan would be unable to fly.
Shen Chuhan noticed Xu Ruoxue's tense body, and hurriedly comforted: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
Xu Ruoxue felt a hint of warmth in her cold fingertips, and nodded her head gently.
The man who came felt the footsteps getting closer and closer to them.
Just as Shen Chuhan was about to defeat the enemy with one move, his expression suddenly relaxed: "It's your own person." ”
"Huh?" Before Xu Ruoxue could react, she was led out of the grass by Shen Chuhan.
The person who came looked at the two of them with a look of surprise: "Sixth Young Master, eldest miss, it's really good that you're okay!" ”
A signal was immediately sent to the people on the cliff.
Xu Ruoxue followed Shen Chuhan and asked curiously, "How do you know that they are not enemies?" ”
"Their clothes are unique to the General's Palace." Shen Chuhan said unhurriedly.
"This is a government soldier?" Xu Ruoxue looked at the crowd of officers and soldiers dressed as people and couldn't help but ask.
"It's not." Shen Chuhan replied lightly, "It's a soldier, a cronie of the General's Mansion." ”
Xue Ruoxue nodded thoughtfully.
Soon, Xu Ruoxue and Shen Chuhan returned to a stable ground with the help of a group of people.
"Ruoxue, are you alright?" Shen Chuyan saw Xu Ruoxue step forward a few steps forward and looked her up and down carefully.
Xu Ruoxue looked at the eldest brother in front of her, and immediately raised a smile: "I'm fine, but the sixth brother is seriously injured." ”
Shen Chuyan took a closer look at Shen Chuhan, who was pale, and his shoulders were still covered with white gauze.
"How are you now?" Shen Chuyan glanced at Shen Chuhan and asked with concern.
Shen Chuhan said casually: "It's okay for the time being. ”
Shen Chuyan's gaze returned to Xu Ruoxue's body again, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, the General's Mansion is in chaos now." ”
When Xu Ruoxue heard this, she suddenly felt guilty: "It's all my fault, which makes everyone worried." ”
"As long as you're okay, I'll send you home." Shen Chuyan immediately gathered people and horses, and got a carriage to take the two back to their home.
On the way home, suddenly someone came to report.
"Young Master, we found five corpses in the bushes to the east!"
"Five corpses?" Xu Ruoxue also heard this in the carriage, and suddenly seemed to think of something.
"What's going on?" Shen Chuyan heard the voice of the snow and immediately asked.
Xu Ruoxue began to ask the man, "What are the characteristics of them?" ”
"Ulcerated, I can't see clearly."
"That's them!" Xu Ruoxue immediately knew who they were, "They want to kill me!" ”
As soon as Shen Chuyan heard this, he immediately asked people to take the body back to the General's Mansion.
"Wait a minute." Xu Ruoxue immediately blocked Shen Chuyan's order after hearing it.
"What's wrong?" Shen Chuyan turned around, looked at the Xu Ruoxue on the carriage and asked.
"It is important for people who carry corpses not to touch their bodies to avoid getting toxins." Xu Ruoxue whispered.
"Okay." Shen Chuyan didn't ask much, and then ordered.
Shen Chuhan in the carriage was half-leaning on the wall of the carriage, closing his eyes and not speaking.
Seeing that Xu Ruoxue returned to the carriage, she slowly opened her eyes and asked, "You gave the poison?" ”
"Yes." Lifelike Snow nodded calmly.
Shen Chuhan didn't speak, Xu Ruoxue didn't understand what he meant, and asked cautiously, "Is there any problem?" ”
"Ahem...... Shen Chuhan coughed lightly twice, and said slowly, "The onset time is slow." ”
Xu Ruoxue looked stunned, thinking that Shen Chuhan would say that he was too vicious.
I didn't expect to say that the poison attack was slow after talking for a long time.
"It's not my reason!" Xu Ruoxue immediately said with some unconvincing.
It can be said that her martial arts are not good, and her articles are not good, how can she question her level of medicine!
"This is because they are so well armed, and the powder has invaded the body from the skin around the eyes very quickly!" Xu Ruoxue said angrily.
"That's it!" Shen Chuhan looked at her slowly and methodically.
Xu Ruoxue was annoyed by his appearance: "What kind of tone are you!" ”
Seeing her lively expression, Shen Chuhan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and his words changed: "You are very powerful." ”
Xu Ruoxue thought that Shen Chuhan would continue to laugh at her, but he praised people instead.
"Say whatever you want, don't be weird!" Lifelike snow's eyebrows were a little lost.
In her previous life, she studied how to save people, and although she also dabbled in poison, she rarely knew how to configure it.
Poison is only used for self-preservation, and she will never use it unless she has to.
She didn't feel any sympathy for the deaths of those five men.
Now the world she lives in is not a society governed by the rule of law, and many laws are not perfect, so they cannot protect her at all.
Murder for hire seems to be common here, they are all vicious and wicked people, they don't die, she is the one who dies.
"I don't have you to laugh at." Shen Chuhan saw her expression of loss, and his face immediately became serious, "I think your poison can be more ruthless, so that you can be safer!" ”
Xu Ruoxue's eyebrows moved slightly, and she looked at him with a surprised expression: "Don't you think I have a bad life?" ”
There was a hint of softness in Shen Chuhan's eyes: "No, they should be damned!" ”
His words made the depression in Xu Ruoxue's heart dissipate a little.
I only heard Shen Chuhan continue: "You didn't do anything wrong, and you don't have to blame yourself, I don't want you to be hurt, showing mercy to the enemy's subordinates is cruel to yourself." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xu Ruoxue couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Shen Chuhan looked at her suspiciously.
"You're right, I'm the one who got the horns!" Xu Ruoxue's eyes returned to their former brightness, and she stared at Shen Chuhan with burning eyes.
Shen Chuhan was stared at like this, and the tips of his ears involuntarily turned red by half a point.
Then he retracted his gaze: "It will take a while before I can go back to the house, let's rest for a while." ”
Xu Ruoxue nodded: "Well, I'll change your medicine when I return home." ”
Shen Chuhan didn't speak, and closing his eyes was a tacit acquiescence.
The group returned to the General's Mansion.
As soon as Xu Ruoxue got out of the car, she was held in Lu Wansu's arms: "Xue'er, you're finally back!" ”
She heard Lu Wansu's thick crying, her nose was slightly sour, and she gently patted Lu Wansu's back: "Mother, I'm sorry for worrying you!" ”
