There was a burst of cicadas outside the window, and the disturbing people were a little upset.

Qin Xi sat by the window, and the sadness in his eyes couldn't be dissipated.

Today seems to be exceptionally hot, and the boredom in people's hearts seems to be related to this sultry weather.

After the attack on Wan'an Temple, Qin Xi never went out again, because his wife was greatly frightened in that scene, and when she returned to the mansion, she began to have a serious illness.

Although the relationship between her and her wife is usually like fire and water, but at this time, Mrs. really fell ill, and she fell ill when they went to the temple to make incense together, and she couldn't bear it.

In addition, her father has always wanted the two of them to ease their relationship, so she can only stay by her side and take care of her wholeheartedly with tea and water.

She didn't have any complaints about doing these trivial things, even if the relationship was not good, but people's hearts were always long, and Mrs. was bedridden day and night, her face was extremely pale, and her body was extremely weak.

However, she always thought of Luo Bei, and it was obvious that he was following her that day, and he was riding red coral, and when he was in the main hall, Luo Bei stood outside and waved at her.

But I don't know why, only the moment I turned around, the feather arrow came suddenly, and the chaos finally calmed down, but Luobei was gone, leaving only a pool of blood, and many broken arrows, one of which was broken into several sections.

If he was really injured, then even if he didn't die, he was extremely seriously injured, and he should have stayed where he was, so how could he leave alone with serious injuries?

If it weren't for him, how would those traces have been left behind?

Qin Xi looked carefully, and the bloodstains were on the side of the copper tripod outside the main hall, and in her impression, Luo Bei was standing there and waving to herself.

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became, and her brows involuntarily furrowed even tighter.

"Where the hell have you been?"

"You should have been there when there was a sudden attack in the woods, didn't you......"

She suddenly figured it out, with Luo Bei's current martial arts, even if she was defenseless, she would definitely not be shot by a feather arrow and die of injury, judging from the pool of blood, it could never be as simple as being hit by an arrow.

And he and his wife are completely exposed to the vision of others but have nothing to dodge, so is it possible that Luo Bei can dodge in time, but for his own sake, he "fights" with locust-like feathered arrows?

If this is the case, Luo Bei must have been injured, and as for the injury, it will not be light.

Qin Xi's heart couldn't help but sink like a stone.

At this time, there was a sudden heavy coughing sound, Qin Xi turned his head, it turned out to be "Mother", her eyes were still closed, and the pale color on her face did not fade at all.

She let out a long breath and quickly turned and walked over.

Seeing "mother" like this, even if the relationship between the two was not good, Qin Xi couldn't help but worry about her.

The "mother" lying quietly on the couch in front of her seemed to have become extremely kind, and at this moment, she was no longer the middle-aged woman who could only speak ill of each other, as if she was closer to the mother in Qin Xi's heart.

She suddenly realized that she had never been so close to the "mother" in front of her.

Qin Xi carefully picked up the spoon that had been put aside a long time ago, filled a spoonful of water from the bowl, slowly handed it to his mother's lips, and reluctantly fed her the water, so he fed two more spoonfuls, and stopped when he saw that her cough had subsided a lot.

But just as Qin Xi wanted to return the soup spoon to the bowl, a hand suddenly grabbed her arm, and the strength was very strong.

Qin Xi was taken aback, but soon she reacted, it was the "mother" who did it, she quickly looked down, thinking that her wife had woken up

came, but I didn't expect her eyes to be still closed, and her face was still pale.

It turned out that she still hadn't woken up and was still in a dream.

"Slut ......"

Mrs. Wang spit out these two words in her sleep, although the voice was not very loud, but to Qin Xi's ears, it was extremely sharp, like a thing full of thorns choked in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out.

"Slut ......"

Madame Wang repeated again, the tone of her mouth and even her expression full of hatred.

Qin Xi's mind was buzzing non-stop, as if there were countless bees flying around, she really wanted to pull her arm out of Madam Wang's hand, and then escape from here as fast as she could.

However, she couldn't do it anyway, she didn't know if she was frozen by something, stiff and unable to move, or the hand that Mrs. Wang stretched out in her sleep was too powerful?

"Slut ......"

The third curse was like a spell lingering in Qin Xi's ears, and she couldn't even tell whether it was Madam Wang who said it three times, or whether it was her own hallucination.

Suddenly, tears welled up in an instant.

When facing this middle-aged woman, she was used to escaping, if it weren't for the fact that she had been bedridden all these days at the moment, Qin Xi didn't even know how to face it.

From the distress in Wan'an Temple to escorting her wife back to her home, she felt that she was approaching this woman who made her resentful and afraid, but at this moment, it was just two words like mosquito chirping, and all the efforts of these days were immediately brought back to their original shape.

Qin Xi's heart was like falling to the bottom of the sea, there was a vast expanse in it, and she couldn't see the other side, and her heart seemed to be unable to be salvaged anymore, just hanging and floating.

The weather outside the window is getting dreary and dreary, and it seems to have reached a certain limit at the moment.

A strong wind blew, blowing the trees in the yard and several strings of wind chimes under the eaves.

It didn't take long for the wind to subside, and at the same time, the raindrops the size of beans began to fall sporadically, as if they had been holding back for too long, and finally began to release after reaching that limit.

At first, the raindrops were sparse, but soon they became one and crackled on the ground.

The wind and rain slanted against the window paper, and the sound became more and more real, as if it was hitting my ears.

Qin Xi suddenly found that the cicadas that had been chirping all the time were quiet in the rain, it seemed that these "guys" were also bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and they also hid their tracks early in the wind and rain.

However, all the hard shells that she had held up at the moment were exposed, and her optimism, willfulness, and even the arrogance she deliberately pretended to be arrogant turned into tears, falling along with the wind and rain outside the window.

She remembered the night she ran out of the house, although she didn't think about suicide, but the sadness was real, if it wasn't for Luo Bei appearing, maybe she would have cried all night.

At this moment, how much she needs a shoulder to lean on, even if that shoulder is not broad, as long as it can give her a little peace and calm.

Mrs. Wang was still asleep, Qin Xi's hand finally broke free, and when she looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her again, there was no hatred in her eyes, because she suddenly found that this woman also looked pitiful.

What she resents must not be herself, but the "mother" who has never even met herself, and even deeper, maybe she also resents the majestic man.

At this time, there was a voice from the courtyard, although Qin Xi couldn't hear what he was saying, he could still hear that one of them was his father, and the other was Wang Jinyu.

Thinking of the boy who grew up with his childhood sweetheart, his smile that seems to always be hard to refuse seems to have become the most familiar picture in his heart.

Remember from the hour

Since then, Wang Jinyu has always liked to follow him, whether it is wind and rain or thunder, or even fighting with the bigger children in the city, he is not afraid, as if he has decided something.

Thinking of the scenes of Wang Jinyu being bullied by himself, he never dared to tell his family or his father, because he always seemed afraid that once he said it, he would never play with him again.

What a childish age, what a frank childhood.

Thinking of this, Qin Xi cried and almost laughed.

It's a pity that everything goes and doesn't return.

Qin Xi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, she didn't want her father and Wang Jinyu to see her crying, but at this time, she suddenly found that the first thing she thought of when she was the saddest was Luobei, not Wang Jinyu, who often appeared in her life.

But he has only known Luo Bei for a short time, but he has been playing with Wang Jinyu for many years?

She was stunned, for the first time she was surprised by this, she couldn't even tell what this feeling in the dark meant.

......

Luobei had just woken up and found that it was raining heavily outside.

In addition to the sound of rain, there is also a soft and gentle sound of the piano.

He wanted to sit up a little and see who was playing, but when he moved, somewhere in his chest left as if it had been torn, and there was a sharp pain.

The piano stopped.

A woman said lazily and with some reproach: "The injury on your body is very serious, don't move around when you wake up, otherwise the wound that has been stopped with great difficulty will tear and bleed again!"

Luo Bei heard it, and the voice was Ruan Hongyu.

Sure enough, Ruan Hongyu walked over, holding a small but delicate incense burner in her hand, and gently placed it beside Luobei's bed.

The aroma rises slowly, and the taste is very light.

"It's a soothing incense that is good for your injuries!"

"Don't look any further, this is not Tianxiang Building, but a small courtyard I bought a few years ago, there is no one nearby, suitable for you to recuperate!"

Only then did Luo Bei realize that he was now in a courtyard in Ruan Hongyu.

"Yes...... Who saved me?" he asked, remembering the situation that day.

Ruan Hongyu smiled and said, "Who do you think it will be?"

Luo Bei shook his head, he only remembered that he could have avoided the oncoming feather arrow at that time, but as long as he dodged it, the feather arrow would shoot towards Qin Xi's mother and daughter who were defenseless in the main hall, so he had no choice but to take the feather arrow that set strength and speed as one.

However, the feather arrow was not one, he used all his cultivation to shatter one feather arrow into several pieces, but he still did not dodge the two and two, he even remembered the feeling of the feather arrow breaking through the skin and burrowing into the body, it was a deep chill in the heart, straight to the heart.

"Forget it, I can't bear to see you like this, it was the swordsman surnamed Ye who appeared in time to save you, and sent you to me to recuperate......"

Luo Bei was shocked, he never thought that at the moment when he was on the line of life and death, it was Ye Zhiqiu who suddenly appeared to save him, but how could he appear there so coincidentally?

He exhaled, and the faint aroma seemed to penetrate his body, and a strange feeling of comfort lingered throughout his body.

Now doesn't seem to be the time to think about this, after all, people have saved themselves, so why should they think about these details?

"Qin Xi, she ...... She's not hurt, is she?" Luo Bei's voice was very low, but Ruan Hongyu could still hear it clearly.

Ruan Hongyu smiled, and the gaze in her eyes was extremely soft.

"She's fine, it's just that the lady seems to be frightened, and this matter is said to be very serious in the court......"

......
