Li Nanke opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed in the main room.
The room was quiet, with the afternoon sunlight shining through the window panes, stirring up particles of dust.
"Why are you lying on the bed again?"
Li Nanke felt strange.
During the last earthquake, I entered the world of Red Rain with the eldest princess, and they were still in the same place after coming out.
This time, the position was changed.
Looking around the house, there was no one else. Li Nanke didn't think much and prepared to go out to check the situation.
But as soon as he stood up, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his heart, and his body seemed to have been drained of all its strength. Li Nanke lay back on the bed in pain, sweat dripping from his forehead.
"what happened?"
He reached out and touched it, and found that his chest was wrapped with a bandage, and there was some blood oozing from the bandage.
injured?
When did I get hurt?
Li Nanke looked stunned, his head was confused, and he was extremely confused.
At this time, the door of the house was pushed open.
I saw Gu Ying coming in with a washbasin.
Seeing Li Nanke wake up, her haggard face suddenly showed a look of surprise. She quickly came to the bed and asked with concern: "Nanke, you finally woke up, how do you feel?"
"Finally woke up?"
Li Nanke frowned, "Have I been unconscious for a long time? Where are the others?"
Gu Ying moved her pink lips and said sadly: "You have been in a coma for ten days."
Ten days!?
Li Nanke was dumbfounded.
"Great cleverness!"
The lively and cute little rabbit rushed into the house when he heard the noise and jumped directly on Li Nanke.
"It hurts! It hurts! It hurts..."
Li Nanke shouted.
The little rabbit was frightened and stood up in a hurry. When he saw the bandage on the other person's body, he apologized: "I'm sorry, you are so smart. I forgot that you were injured."
Li Nanke grimaced in pain.
It felt as if my heart had been dug out by a shovel.
He found that Meng Xiaotu's eyes were red and swollen, and her originally round face had lost a lot of weight, which showed that she was very sad these days.
Li Nanke suppressed the pain and asked, "Ying'er said just now that I was in a coma for ten days. Is that true?"
"Of course it's true."
"I remember that after the earthquake, I entered the world of red rain with you and the Night Fairy, right?"
"Um."
"We didn't come out together later?"
"We came out together, but..." Meng Xiaotu's voice gradually weakened, "You were unconscious after you came out, but..."
"But what's wrong? Tell me quickly!"
Li Nanke was almost anxious to death, and felt a vague uneasiness in his heart.
"But you were killed again."
A cold voice came from the door.
It's Nie Ying.
Killed?
Li Nanke was stunned, feeling that he had heard a big joke, and even doubted whether the current environment was real.
His eyes turned to the three women, and he suddenly asked in surprise: "Where are the others?"
"Fairy Ye went to find Miss Yu, but Jiang Xue never came back." Gu Ying said in a low voice.
"Where is my wife? Where is Sister Leng?"
"..."
But all three of them were silent.
Gu Ying lowered her head and stopped talking.
The little rabbit's eyes were red and he was biting his lips.
In the end, Nie Ying said: "Your wife ran away after killing you, and your second wife, Leng Xinnan, died after saving you."
Li Nanke's brain was confused.
What is this?
Gu Ying held the man's hand and said sadly: "I know you may not believe what I say next, but it really happened, and we... don't want to believe it either.
During the earthquake, not only you and Meng Xiaotu but also Ye Xianzi were missing, Qiuer was also missing."
Madam also went to Red Rain World?
Li Nanke was surprised.
It stands to reason that Luo Qianqiu has never taken Hongyu, so why was he involved after the earthquake?
Could it be that she could have entered the Red Rain world?
But Gu Ying and Nie Ying can do it too.
Back then, Gu Ying had entered the Red Rain World of Time and Space in Phoenix Mountain, and Nie Ying had seen the Ballad Girl in the Red Rain World of Yin Yang Wuque Gate.
Why did they stay here calmly during the earthquake?
unless……
Madam secretly took Red Rain!
Thinking that Luo Qianqiu has been studying the treasures brought from the Red Rain world, with a woman's extreme temperament, she might try taking Red Rain.
"go on."
Li Nanke rubbed his swollen eyebrows.
Gu Ying said: "You were missing for about two hours, and then you all came back. For some reason, you were in a coma. And Qiu'er came back a stick of incense later than you."
A stick of incense too late...
Li Nanke felt incredible.
Once everyone comes back, then everyone comes back at the same time, so why is Madam a little late in lighting up the incense?
"After Qiu'er came back, she...she..."
Gu Ying's beautiful eyes showed deep doubts and sadness. She paused for a few seconds and then said in a low voice, "She killed you for some reason."
Li Nanke felt like he was listening to fantasy.
Anyone in this world would kill him, but not Luo Qianqiu!
"She killed you with this."
Gu Ying took out a sharp awl with blood stains on it.
When Li Nanke saw the murder weapon, his brain was buzzing.
This is it!
Mrs. Zeng used this weapon to "kill" him every ten days in the middle of the night!
According to the old Taoist priest, if he doesn't do this, he will stay in the Red Rain World forever.
My wife is the apprentice of an old Taoist priest, so she always obeys the instructions.
Until Li Nanke swallowed the "Heart of Red Rain", the "death" at the third watch no longer continued, and Luo Qianqiu also put away the pointed awl and never took it out again.
Li Nanke gently held the awl.
Even though the pointed cone was very cold, he seemed to be able to feel the warmth of Luo Qianqiu's palm still remaining on it.
"Why do you do this?"
Li Nanke began to believe that his wife had indeed "killed" him with this pointed awl.
But the other party didn’t want him to die, but——
An idea flashed in Li Nanke's mind.
He remembered what the girl in Mengdie Taoist Temple said:
[Swallowing the heart of Hongyu treats the symptoms but not the root cause.]
[The reason why I let you die in the third watch is to let you live. Only when you die can you live.]
"You must die to live."
Li Nanke felt that he had grasped a very important clue.
Seeing that Li Nanke's mood had stabilized, Gu Ying continued: "After Qiu'er killed you, she left. She hasn't come back yet, and I don't know where she went."
"Where's Sister Leng? What's going on with her?"
Li Nanke asked.
Meng Xiaotu burst into tears and said while crying: "Sister Leng didn't know what illness she had, and she said she would give you her heart. She said she had saved you once, and she would definitely be able to save you a second time...
…”
"etc!"
Li Nanke's eyes widened when he heard what Little Rabbit said.
heart!?
Saved once!
Li Nanke subconsciously touched his heart, and the fog that had been lingering in his mind gradually became clear.
"That's it...that's it..."
Li Nanke finally understood.
It turns out that the person who helped him repair his heart was Sister Leng!
No wonder Sister Leng occasionally said that she felt as if their hearts were connected together.
No wonder Madam said Sister Leng would not live long.
Because the old Taoist priest said that even if the person who helped him mend his heart would live, he would not last long and would die sooner or later.
But the question is, when did Sister Leng know about this?
If she had known it earlier, she would have definitely told it based on her personality.
That was after the earthquake.
In other words, after his death, Sister Leng suddenly knew the truth, so she resolutely prepared to mend her heart again.
Who told her?
lady!?
Li Nanke felt a splitting headache, but his body felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless ice cave, and his whole body was shivering.
"After Sister Leng gave you her heart, she died. Now...even the body is gone."
