Chapter Twenty-Three: The Storm
Zizhu saw that Shuli's breathing gradually stabilized, she came to the candlestick and blew out the light, and walked out lightly to bring the door. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the courtyard, everything is quiet. The moonlight reflected the ground vaguely through the window paper, and suddenly a dark shadow floated in front of the window, and a dagger with cold light came through the crack in the door, and the deadbolt was opened, and only the slightest sound of pushing and closing the door could be heard. The man in black's eyes shone in the moonlight, and with a dagger in his hand, he walked into the inner room and slowly approached the bed......
Shuli suddenly felt a little cold, rubbed his arms, opened his eyes in a daze, and forgot to scream when he saw the scene in front of him. She was stunned for a long time, and just when she was about to scream, the man in black suddenly knelt on one knee, pointed the sharp edge of the dagger down, and hugged his fists and said, "Don't be afraid, Miss, your subordinates are Xue Qiu." ”
The book has been glazed for a long time, who is Xue Qiu? Call her Miss, is she someone from the book? She cleared her throat and lowered her voice: "Get up!" What are you doing here? ”
The man in black stood up and said, "The master hasn't heard from the eldest lady for a long time, so I sent my subordinates to take a look." ”
Shuli scratched her head, and she remembered. The old man of the scholar's mansion, who is her cheap father, sent her to the Leng Wangfu in order to make friends with the powerful, but the original owner lost his heart as soon as he saw his handsome cousin, and he wanted to attract her cousin's attention wholeheartedly. In order to have a quiet environment for her to carry out the plan, she lied to her father, saying that she was almost able to control the Leng Wangfu, and asked her father not to send someone over for the time being, so as not to affect her plan. As a result, her father really didn't send anyone over. At least no one came looking for her during the time she wore it into this body. But what now? Although she doesn't remember the situation of the Shufu very well, judging from the fact that the master of the Shufu still wants to use her power to make a comeback after being forced to resign, he must not be a kind person. Ordinary people, when they encounter such a big thing, they can still save their lives and the reputation of half their lives, most of them should be happy, but he is still so deliberate, it can be seen that it is terrible! Although she lived in the body of the original owner, she was not the original owner after all, and the original owner's temperament was probably only known best by her father, not to mention that this person was so scheming, in case she was recognized, even if it was difficult to understand the situation, I am afraid it would attract suspicion!
Shuli's heart was very nervous, and she kept ordering herself to calm down, but the more she did this, the more nervous she became. However, she controlled her breathing well, and the room was dimly lit, so the man in black didn't notice her abnormality.
The man in black saw that Shuli didn't answer, thinking that it was probably the master who went against the will of the eldest lady, and the eldest lady wanted to lose her temper. Isn't this the usual style of the eldest lady? The man in black lowered his head stiffly, the eldest lady is the only young lady in the library, and she has always been favored, he can't innocently suffer her anger, so he can only temporarily reduce his sense of existence, and wait for the young lady to be angry before talking about other things!
The man in black had no way of knowing what Shuli thought, but she remembered one thing, and that was the ending of Shufu. The lord of the book was killed, the house was raided, the men were exiled to the frontier, and the women were taken into official slaves. Wait a while, she is also the daughter of the book, according to the plot, she was cannon fodder by the heroine in advance, but now the heroine has not made a move on her, which means that there is such a tragic ending waiting for her? No way! How could she be so pathetic!
The man in black waited for a long time but found that the eldest lady didn't react at all, so he became bolder. He took out the note in his arms and handed it to Shuli with both hands.
Shuli was still sad about her ending, but when she saw the note, she took it easily, and she reacted after taking it. Why pick it up? Why pick it up! The more you know, the faster you die. Originally, she could have hesitated to draw a line with the book, but now she has directly pulled herself into the enemy's camp!
Thinking of this, the book glass was furious, and when he saw the man in black with a straight pestle in front of him, he couldn't help but explode. She stepped forward and stomped on the man in black so hard that she ran over his feet. The man in black hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands, his eyes widened, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he couldn't fucking run yet. Woo woo woo ~ The eldest lady really hasn't changed, I just thought that her anger was gone, it must be an illusion, an illusion!
"Alright, you can get out!"
The man in black heard his eldest lady's angry tone, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he quickly turned around and left, just after taking two steps, he suddenly thought that something was wrong! The eldest lady hasn't read the note yet, and he still has to send a message back! So he turned his head stiffly and looked at Shuli in what he thought was the kindest. Well, he's completely forgotten he's still masked! His smile with a spring breeze on his face is invisible. He laughed dryly twice, and pointed to the note in Shuli's hand that was almost completely covered by the sleeve, "Miss, you haven't read the content of the note, how can your subordinates report back to the master!" ”
The corners of Shuli's mouth twitched a few times, embarrassed, he found out! She was trying to bluff him and hide the note, but it was almost there! Alas ~ Shuli holds his forehead with his hand.
The man in black sighed in his heart, it's over! The eldest lady is disappointed in him! No...... No...... What tricks do you want to use to fix him? Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his other foot. Shuli looked at him with an innocent smile on his face. She hooked her hand at him, the black-clothed figure leaned forward, and the book glass attached to his ear and said sweetly, "When do I want you to question what I do?" Well? After speaking, he raised his foot and boarded it fiercely. The man in black felt his legs go limp. Woo woo woo ~ The eldest lady is really terrible!
Shuli looked at the man in black who limped away and clapped his hands. Get! Go to bed! But before she could climb into bed, she heard the sound of fighting outside. Worst! She hurried out of the room and opened the door to look out.
In the courtyard, the man in black was attacking Yun Mo, and he was killing every step. Yun Mo dodged easily, teasing him from time to time.
Xue Qiu's eyes were gloomy, since this person saw himself coming out of the eldest lady's house, in order to prevent the eldest lady from being exposed, he had to die! In fact, Xue Qiu's martial arts are far below Yun Mo, and he hasn't found out that Yun Mo is playing tricks on himself after fighting for so long, firstly because Yun Mo hides it well, and secondly, because the previous Shuli looked down on Yun Mo very much and rarely mentioned him. So much so that Xue Qiu was negligent.
Shuli, who was watching the battle in the room, was very anxious. What to do! Leng Lichen's easing of relations with her is based on the premise that she does not interact with the book, and now, the people from the book house have come to the door. She can't even wash it by jumping into the Yellow River now! Shuli accidentally made a little noise from the door, but he didn't want Yun Mo to look over here. Xue Qiu's eyes lit up, a good chance! He raised his sword and stabbed at Yun Mo......
"Yun Mo-" Shuli's heart was shocked, and his body had already rushed out faster than his thoughts. Then came the sound of the blade stabbing flesh.
Yun Mo was stunned and hugged Shuli, helped her to sit on the ground slowly, his voice trembled: "Shu'er...... You ......"
Shuli covered his arms, his face wrinkled into buns, but he still comforted him and said, "I'm fine!" "Woo woo ~ she has something! It hurts! Why did she rush out to block the sword by herself, Yun Mo's martial arts are so good, even if she is distracted, it is still no problem to avoid the sword blade! She's so stupid! What are you worried about! But this block is a little less troublesome.
Xue Qiu was also stunned when he saw that his sword stabbed the eldest lady. However, he reacted immediately, and flew towards the courtyard wall with a little under his feet.
In the darkness of the night, a sword tore through the night with cold light and plunged straight into the chest of the man in black. Xue Qiu fell to the ground in response, and he lost his breath. Leng Lichen walked out of the darkness, still covered with frost. Shuli's head tilted and fainted.
"Shu'er-" Yun Mo shook her, picked her up and rushed into the house. A loud noise woke Zizhu up. When she walked into the room with her hair scattered, she saw a bloodied unconscious book. On weekdays, she was quite steady, but this sudden scene made her lose her composure for a while, she slammed into the bed, and cried out: "Miss! Miss, what's wrong with you......"
Yun Mo turned his head to her: "Don't cry first, the book is not seriously injured, hurry up and get a basin of hot water!" ”
Zizhu sniffed his mind and went to prepare something.
The two of them had been busy for half the night before Shuli woke up leisurely. As soon as she woke up, she met Leng Lichen's gaze. It turned out that when Yun Mo was treating Shuli's wounds, he never left, but he didn't go up to help, just looked at her quietly.
Shuli was furious by him, and said loudly: "Cousin, why are you looking at me like this?" ”
Leng Lichen didn't answer, turned around and left. Yun Mo smiled and touched her head, "It's okay, you don't care about him!" You're hurt, get some rest. I'm going to see him! ”
Shuli nodded, and fell asleep again. Yun Mo put her hand into the quilt, and told Zizhu to take care of him tonight, and if there was anything, go to the study to find him. Seeing Zizhu respond one by one, he got up and left.
The night was getting darker and darker, but Yun Mo knew that this was a sign that the sky was about to brighten. He walked down the path to the study. The light in the room was still on, and he smiled. Pushing the door in, some bottles and cans flew towards him, and he shouted loudly while dodging around: "Leng Lichen, you actually engaged in a sneak attack!" It's too ungentlemanly! ”
Seeing him sitting in front of the bookshelf and throwing books at him one by one, Yun Mofei stepped forward and grabbed his hand, "Hey! Also throw! Leng Lichen glanced at the hand holding his wrist. Yun Mo let go of it. However, Leng Lichen did not continue to throw books.
Yun Mo picked up the teapot in front of him and poured a cup of tea, and sat on the chair next to him, "I don't know when you can change your habit of throwing books at me when you are angry!" ”
Leng Lichen said faintly: "You should be glad that others, I threw a knife." ”
Yun Mo touched his nose and laughed dryly, "Hehe~ You know everything!" ”
Leng Lichen also poured a cup of tea and took a sip, it seemed to be a little cold, he put it on the table, and said: "You and I grew up together, what do you think, do you think I won't know?" Dare to calculate me! He continued, "I know you're afraid I'll misunderstand the book, but since I've decided to trust her at the time, I won't go back!" Today's incident was that you made a big fuss, and you caused her injury in vain. ”
"I'm sorry! Dust. ”
Leng Lichen got up and took out the chessboard, "If I blame you, do you think you can still sit here?" Tonight's good mood has been disturbed by you, so I'll punish you for accompanying me to play chess next night! ”
Yun Mo almost believed it. When he saw the murderous situation when Leng Lichen was playing chess, he blinked innocently, what did he do? He didn't actually do anything, what he did was cold. He obviously thought of Shen Mo's words when he gave Shen Mo the Yun Heart Song last time. Hmph, if she hadn't praised you, would you think I would have been able to play chess with you so leisurely?!
When it was almost dawn, Shuli woke up again. Zizhu had already fallen asleep on her side. Shuli didn't alarm her. The sky outside brightly illuminates the room. Shuli's heart is also clear about last night's events.
Obviously, she was calculated by Yun Mo. It was a coincidence that he had run into Xue Qiu, but he had spotted her peeking through the crack in the door from the beginning. Otherwise, according to his temperament, he would definitely make sure that the man in black was safe as soon as he found the man in black at her door. He pretended to deal with Xue Qiu, making Xue Qiu mistakenly think that the two were on par in martial arts, and even Xue Qiu could kill him as long as he worked harder. It was a coincidence that she made a noise, but his so-called distraction was deliberate, and when Xue Qiu took the opportunity to kill him, he expected that he would rush out in a hurry. Since she rushed out to block the sword in a hurry, then her life was naturally in danger. At this point, he pulled her from behind, so she just happened to hurt her arm. And she can block the sword for Yun Mo regardless of the danger of her life, and she is also silently explaining that she will not obey the arrangement of the book.
But there is one thing, if Xue Qiu escapes, he will inevitably tell Shuming about today's events. That cunning man must have been suspicious of her. At this time, Yun Mo calculated that his cousin would appear at the right time and kill Xue Qiu. At that time, Xue Qiu did not return to the Library, and Shuming would only think that his whereabouts were exposed and destroyed by the Cold Palace, and completely threw her out of the matter. Anyway, Leng Wangfu already had an enmity with him.
Shuli blinked, this time I really wanted to thank him. Although it was troublesome to find the door by himself, he did let her take a lot of detours. As for how Yun Mo explained to Leng Lichen, she was not worried at all. According to his temperament, it's not impossible to see a man in black playing with him when he's bored, and then almost ending her life while playing~ Well, why does it sound a little embarrassing? Shuli wanted to cover her face, but as soon as she raised her hand, a sharp pain in her arm came, and she screamed in pain. Zizhu woke up in a daze, and saw that the gauze on Shuli's arm was oozing blood, and screamed louder than Shuli.
Shuli looked at her speechlessly, covering her ear with her other hand.
"Miss!"
"Whisper, I can hear it!"
"Your wounds are ruptured!"
"I saw ......"
