The dark forest reflected the dim light, trapping her in strands, as if she was suffocating by drowning.
Mu Chi was lying on the ground covered in blood.
There was a sword beside him, the blade shone with cold light and was stained with scarlet blood.
"Mu Chi, wake up!" Zhu Yu knelt down beside him, crying loudly for help, but no one answered.
The people on the ground trembled their eyelashes and slowly opened their eyes.
"Sorry, I'm sorry." Mu Chi forced a smile on his lips.
He stretched out the little finger of his left hand, raised his eyes and stared into the girl's bright eyes, "I, maybe, want to eat and talk."
As soon as Mu Chi finished speaking, he spit out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body seemed to burst into pieces.
The young man slowly closed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and a trace of tears streaked down the end of his eyes.
The happiest thing in his life should be meeting Zhu Yu.
What a blessing from God.
[Ding dong! Physical defense skills have been automatically redeemed.]
888 suddenly appeared, Zhu Yu looked at it in surprise, "This is..."
[The host uses body defense skills, body defense skill level: lv1, can be immune to one attack skill, and repair injuries by itself. 】
888:【Yubao, you just called me, I heard you!】
Zhu Yu wiped away her tears, "Does that mean Mu Chi won't die?"
【Yes!】
The light and shadow dissipated bit by bit, and Mu Chi had completely disappeared without a trace.
Zhu Yu slowly opened his eyes and found that he was in a strange environment again.
"Girl, you finally woke up."
Xiucai stood beside the bed and looked at Zhu Yu expectantly.
It seemed that Xie Jie had brought her back, but she was not in the Star-Zhaing Tower.
Zhu Yu rubbed his sore arms, but suddenly he cried out in pain from the tearing wound behind him.
"hiss……"
"What's wrong, girl, do you feel any pain?" Xiucai asked with concern.
Zhu Yu frowned, "It seems like the wound has opened."
"Then let me bandage it for you."
"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you."
Xiucai took off her clothes, applied medicine, gently covered the wound, and then wrapped it with gauze several times, all at once.
Zhu Yu's tightly biting lips loosened, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
This pain shield worked for a while and then failed. It was really torturing her to death.
Zhu Yu looked around, but there was no figure she wanted to rely on.
"Where's Xie Jie?"
I really want to meet him.
"Master, he..." Xiucai hesitated to speak.
Zhu Yu asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Oh, girl, the one who has been taking care of you is actually the master. Seeing that you are about to wake up, he hurriedly left the slave's head." Xiucai was so anxious that her face turned red and she broke the jar. "I also told the slave not to talk too much, otherwise I will cut you."
Kill your slave’s tongue!”
Zhu Yu was even more confused, "Why?"
Xie Jie doesn't want to see her?
Xiucai didn't expect her to ask more questions, so she said awkwardly, "You just kept calling other people's names."
Zhu Yu: “…”
I guess I won't be able to coax him for a while.
"Xiaoba, what did the villain do after I left?" 888: [The system is retrieving data...]
Zhu Yu disappeared at the wedding, and Xie Jie felt that the sky was falling. He was originally going to activate the Heavenly Killing Formation at Lingshan Mountain in Shu, and Taoist Priest Qingxuan had been waiting for him, but when the formation was about to be activated, Xie Jie suddenly let go
All of them, one person in wedding clothes, knelt at the center of the formation and bled for most of the day.
The formation refracted huge golden light when it touched the blood. No one knew what the man in the center of the formation was thinking when he saw his own blood falling drop by drop and then being swallowed up by the runes.
Later, when Xie Jie was seriously ill and returned to the palace, the government affairs were left to Baili Zimu, and he stayed in the dungeon almost every day. Some people speculated that he committed violent acts there, killing people for fun every day.
Drown him.
In fact, Xie Jie imprisoned himself with death row prisoners in order to share their desire for survival.
Taoist Master Qingxuan didn't want him to be depressed, so he kindly formed a dream-inducing formation, using blood as a guide.
After using it, Xie Jie was indeed more energetic, and he acted decisively and resolutely on important matters that needed to be decided in the court.
It can be said that from then on, Xie Jie started bleeding in the dungeon every night, and then lay down in the coffin to induce dreams.
Day after day, it tastes as good as sugar.
Zhu Yu lowered his eyes, suffering from severe angina.
She seemed to know why Xie Jie didn't go to her.
888 had already said that Xie Jie knew many things about her, including that she was here for a mission.
On the day of the wedding, I must have felt that she had completed her mission and left voluntarily, and had no idea that she was kidnapped.
He's trying to let her go.
But I don’t want to continue living.
Xiucai was napping next to the bed when she suddenly saw Zhu Yu lifting the quilt and getting out of bed, she was so frightened that she couldn't understand.
"Hey! Girl, why are you going?" Xiucai stopped her in a hurry.
Zhu Yu took a deep breath and said stubbornly: "I want to see him."
"Squeak——"
The heavy palace door opened, and Zhu Yu endured the pain and walked in step by step.
The man above has his back to the palace door. He is dressed in a dark brocade robe, with his black hair tied up high. The breeze blows his clothes and sleeves, making him look as ethereal as a god.
"Thank you for the robbery."
She called softly.
The man turned around.
Zhu Yu's eyes suddenly focused on his face.
The man was unparalleledly handsome, with a hint of coldness and arrogance between his brows, and his thin lips were slightly pursed, indifferent and distant.
"Master, you are fine."
She paused for a moment, then smiled sweetly, "Thank you for saving me."
"It's just a little effort." Xie Jie glanced at her indifferently and moved his eyes away.
There was a hint of mockery in the corner of his mouth. "That day came in a hurry. I wonder if it ruined Master's good deeds."
"I was also forced..."
"No need to explain." Xie Jie interrupted her with a cold voice.
Zhu Yu: “?”
Sure enough, I was still angry.
"Okay." She raised her head, suppressed her trembling voice, and smiled, "Then, I won't disturb the Lord."
"Wait a minute." Xie Jie suddenly said.
Zhu Yu stopped.
"Master hasn't said how to thank me yet."
The man stood in front of her as quickly as the wind, staring down at her with stern eyes.
"How do you want me to thank you?" Zhu Yu asked.
Doesn't the implication of "easy work" mean nothing?
The man suddenly smiled lowly and said, "Master, you should know that I don't need any reward."
"Oh, let's wait until I recover from my injury."
Xie Jie raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that there was nothing wrong with what he said. But he just heard her say again: "I wonder if the Lord will allow me to go back to Baili Mansion to recuperate?"
"No!"
Xie Jie's tone suddenly became urgent, and his whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.
Zhu Yu stared, raised her head to meet his gaze, and looked at him strangely.
She raised her feet to shorten the distance between the two of them, their breath could be touched and they were so close.
"My lord, your temper seems to be getting more and more irritable."
There was a bit of joking in her tone, but it also made people feel inexplicably guilty.
Xie Jie looked at her and couldn't say a word.
She tilted her head slightly to avoid his burning gaze, and then continued walking outside.
Xie Jie suddenly hugged her from behind, brushed his thin lips against Zhu Yu's ear, and smiled sarcastically. "Master, are you leaving in such a hurry?"
His chest was burning hot, and Zhu Yu's wound didn't feel very good.
She didn't intend to break away and let him hold her.
"My lord doesn't seem to be very willing to keep me, so he won't force me." Zhu Yu chuckled.
Xie Jie hugged her tighter, as if he was afraid that she would run away if he let go.
Xie Jie's face suddenly darkened when he thought of something, and the evil spirit in his eyes surged, "Let's repay the kindness to Gu."
After he finished speaking, the person in his arms did not respond.
Xie Jie suddenly hesitated whether he was too fierce, and a few drops of liquid fell on the back of his hand.
"Bata!"
The warm tears burned his skin, and all the copper and iron walls he had built before collapsed at this moment.
The girl in his arms suddenly turned around and hugged him back, "Then I owe you one more favor."
His thin shoulders shook slightly, obviously he was enduring great pain.
