Chapter 82 (2/2)

Her gaze slowly retracted, but the next moment, her gaze stayed in one place, without moving for a long time .

The blood-stained carriage was parked next to the stables, and it was particularly eye-catching . This was the carriage that Lady Yu was riding in during the day . It looked like it had just been pulled back . Obviously, there hadn’t been time to clean it .

What attracted Yu Linglong’s eyes was not the carriage, but something under the carriage .

It was a small pool of red and black semi-coagulated matter, with a few flies flying back and forth . There was a b.l.o.o.d.y smell floating in the air, it was obvious that this was human blood, and it was fresh .

Yu Linglong remembered clearly that the carriage was ridden by Lady Yu, and there were only Ling’er and the coachman on it . None of these three were injured in the fight on the mountain .

So where did this bloodstain come from?

Her clear eyes gradually tightened . Yu Linglong leaned over slightly, drew out her dagger, and gripped it in her hand .

With light steps, her figure was as light as a leopard, and she approached the junk room without making a sound .

Her plain white fingertips gently pushed open the old door . In this deadly afternoon, the tattered door made an ear-piercing sound due to disrepair, and it finally opened slowly .

The room was covered in dust . In the thick dust on the ground, a large area of ​​crawling marks were particularly obvious, and the bloodstains were mixed in, making it even more conspicuous .

Someone was actually there!

Yu Linglong squeezed the dagger tightly . She followed the mark guardingly and walked to a pile of stacked wooden boards, where the bloodstain disappeared .

Taking a deep breath, Yu Linglong swiftly jumped forward and rushed directly to the place blocked by the plank, only having time to see the blue figure on the ground . The dagger in her hand was swung accurately and stopped at the person’s throat .

Her lips opened slightly, and she whispered softly, “Don’t move!”

When she raised her eyes, her gaze fell into a pair of narrow eyes .

The man in front of her wore the same cyan s.h.i.+rt as the group of people in blue who had been killed on the mountain . His eyes were sharp, his nose was high, and his thin lips were lightly pressed . His brows were a little red, giving him a pale and bloodless face . There was an inexhaustible evil added to it .

At this moment, a cold dagger was pressed against his throat, but his face showed no sign of panic . He just glanced at the dagger carelessly, and then looked up at Yu Linglong .

“You’re skilled . I didn’t even hear your footsteps . ”

Yu Linglong snorted: “Who are you!?”

The man slowly raised his arms, resting them on the back of his head, and looked at Yu Linglong for a while: “You don’t know?”

Yu Linglong’s dagger was sent forward mercilessly, and firmly controlled the man’s throat: “If you don’t tell me, I will kill you . ”

The man’s eyes were full of disdain when he looked at Yu Linglong . His voice sounded low and dull because of excessive blood loss: “If you don’t know, why are you holding a knife at me?”

Yu Linglong’s gaze fell on the man’s body, and she saw large bloodstains on his thighs and on his chest . She could not clearly see his back; maybe there were some there . She knew only by the blood that kept pouring out . There was no way this man could fight back .

With a cold smile, Yu Linglong slowly retracted the dagger and stood up .

“It doesn’t matter if you won’t say it . You can just wait for death here!”

Years of experience allowed her to see at a glance that if the injury on this man’s body was left untreated, he would soon lose too much blood and die .

Seeing her turning around and about to leave, the man’s expression changed slightly: “You really don’t know me?”

Yu Linglong’s mouth lifted into a sneer: “Who do you think you are? Do you think everyone in the world will recognize you?”

This man was too narcissistic . How famous can he be?

Yu Linglong kept walking and walked straight out, obviously not planning to worry about this nosy person .

The man’s Adam’s apple rolled up and down a few times, and finally, he whispered when Yu Linglong opened the door: “Girl, give me some water . ”

Yu Linglong looked back at him but said nothing .

The man instantly understood what Yu Linglong meant, and a helpless smile appeared on his enchanting face: “My name is Feng…Xuan…yuan . ”

He uttered his name word by word, and the man’s eyes were fixed on Yu Linglong’s face as if he was looking for something .

Yu Linglong nodded blankly, turned, and walked out .

She quickly brought in a small bucket of water and put it on the ground . Feng Xuanyuan’s thin lips were pressed tightly, and he tried to sit up, holding the bucket and drinking .

Yu Linglong looked at his back . The wound there was even more hideous, and his clothes were almost completely torn up, revealing a large number of knife marks beneath it . She really didn’t know how the man lying on the ground was pretending to be casual .

Feng Xuanyuan drank for a long time before finally quenching his thirst . He gritted his teeth and slowly took off his blue s.h.i.+rt, picked up the water in the bucket, and washed his wounds .

Yu Linglong watched his movements motionlessly, obviously not planning to step forward to help .

Yu Linglong didn’t speak until she saw Feng Xuanyuan tearing his clothes into strips and trying to bandage them up, “If you do this, the wound will become infected . ”

With such a serious injury, on such a hot day, and without any medication, within three days, the wounds on this man’s body will be severely infected .

Feng Xuanyuan’s forehead hurt so badly that his forehead was full of cold sweat, but a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: “Then will you help me?”

Yu Linglong was very direct: “I can help you, but what good do you have for me?”

Feng Xuanyuan raised his sharp eyebrows: “If you know me, you will know what is good . ”

Yu Linglong sneered . This guy was still sounding her out . She was very suspicious of him .

Looking at the man’s temperament, it was obvious that his ident.i.ty was not vulgar, but she didn’t care about his ident.i.ty, nor was she interested .

Yu Linglong returned to the room, quickly grabbed some medicine and some clean cloth strips, and threw them to Feng Xuanyuan: “Wrap the wounds and leave quickly . ”

A trace of anger flashed through his narrow eyes . Feng Xuanyuan took the cloth strips and said coldly: “I don’t want to trouble you, girl . I will leave soon . ”

Yu Linglong looked at him condescendingly . This man put on a sour face for someone like she was attacking him?

Thinking of this, Yu Linglong was angry: “Huh? You don’t want to trouble me? Then don’t hide under my carriage and follow me into the city, let alone leave so many brothers to die for you!”

How was he so arrogant? Had it not been for so many people in blue to shed blood to cover him, could he have hidden under the carriage and avoided the gaze of the people in black!? In this situation, he was very proud . Was it true that people all over the world have to be used to him?

The sharp words pierced Feng Xuanyuan’s body with a sudden tremor . His snow-white teeth bit his bloodless thin lips, and his evil face was full of pain .

After a long time, he said in a deep voice: “…There are some things that are more important than being alive . ”

Yu Linglong sneered: “Since you want to live, don’t put on an arrogant face . ”

A tragic death was always easy, but a humble life was the hardest . Now that we have chosen this path, we must pay the corresponding price .

Hostility flashed across his face . Feng Xuanyuan stared at Yu Linglong’s face, paused for a long time, and finally whispered: “Please, girl, save my life . ”

Yu Linglong was silent for a moment, and said, “Hide here first . I will arrange for you to leave as soon as possible . ”

Just as she was about to turn around, Feng Xuanyuan suddenly asked: “What’s your name?”

Yu Linglong met those slender black eyes and said word by word: “I’m saving you only because you can’t die here, otherwise, it would cause a lot of trouble for me . ”

She didn’t want to take care of the situation . After all, this man followed her carriage into the Yu Mansion . Just looking at the skill of the man in black today, she knew that the two parties were entangled . This was the situation today .

Feng Xuanyuan was stunned .

Perhaps in his experience, there had never been a person who dared to treat him so scornfully, but the pet.i.te woman in front of him seemed to not treat him lightly, and even refused to tell him her name .

A strange color flashed across his eyes . Feng Xuanyuan looked at Yu Linglong’s back, but after all, he did not speak .

Just as Yu Linglong closed the door panel behind her, she heard a burst of laughter from a child: “Drive, drive, ride the horse!”

Slightly startled, she followed the voice, but she saw a boy beside the manger waving a willow branch in his hand, whipping the small bench under the seat, and kicking his legs as if he was riding a horse .

It turned out to be Yu Weiyuan . Why was he here?

Seeing her appear, Yu Weiyuan threw away the whip in his hand and ran over excitedly: “Hey, why are you here? Are you here to visit the horses?”

Yu Weiyuan was only seven years old and ignorant . He only knew that Yu Linglong was his older sister, but he didn’t know that Yu Linglong was a character that no one would dare to offend in the Yu house .

In his mind, nothing was more important than playing .

Lifting his chubby fingers, he pointed at Zhuiyue in the manger . Yu Weiyuan raised his face and looked expectantly at Yu Linglong: “Pick me up!”

It wasn’t a commanding tone . Yu Weiyuan was just being pampered by Mu s.h.i.+, and there was this natural instruction when he spoke as if people in this world should do things according to his wishes .

Yu Linglong didn’t bother to care about the child and saw that there was no one around, so she raised her foot and left .

Yu Weiyuan didn’t care about it . Seeing Yu Linglong was about to leave, he grabbed Yu Linglong’s dress and said, “Hey, I’m talking to you . Why are you ignoring me?”

Yu Linglong frowned . The expression on her face became severe involuntarily: “Let go!”

Yu Weiyuan stubbed his neck and said loudly, “Don’t let go, hurry up and pick me up to ride the horse!”

Yu Linglong had never had much patience . Seeing Yu Weiyuan’s little hand holding onto her tightly, she stretched out her bare hand and unceremoniously twisted Yu Weiyuan’s ear!

She didn’t care what kind of temper this little guy had, anyway, she was not used to his problems!

Yu Weiyuan suffered some loss, and immediately released Yu Linglong’s hand, and started crying with a curl of his mouth: “Wah, how dare you hit me! I will let my mother take care of you!”

After hearing this, Yu Linglong added a few points to the strength in her hand: “Oh, you are quite capable!”

Yu Weiyuan screamed in pain . Yu Linglong thought he was afraid of her, so she let go: “Go back to your own yard . This is not your place to play in . ”

Unexpectedly, Yu Weiyuan didn’t listen to her at all . As soon as Yu Linglong let go of his ear, he immediately sat down on the ground neatly, rolling around and crying . He was apparently already familiar with this kind of trick .

“Wahhh, you’re bullying me, wahhh!”

Yu Linglong’s willow eyebrows frowned slightly . This young boy was really troublesome!

A white, jade-like hand grabbed Yu Weiyuan’s collar and easily lifted the little guy who was lying on the ground . Yu Linglong coldly faced him and pulled Yu Weiyuan out of the stable .

“It hurts so much! You let me go, oh ooh—” Yu Weiyuan had long been used to being slapped when others couldn’t help him . Who knew that this sister didn’t follow him at all . He only felt that he was lifted by his collar and his b.u.t.tocks were kicked really hard .

“Go home and cry!” Yu Linglong pointed at Yu Weiyuan, who was rubbing his b.u.t.t with one hand and wiping tears with the other, and her voice was full of impatience, “Let me see you again next time . If you are here, I will beat you until your skin breaks!”

Yu Weiyuan cried with so much pain . Her face was like a kitten’s, but he didn’t dare to provoke this sister anymore, clutching his b.u.t.t and limping away .

Yu Linglong didn’t think she was bullying a child . This kind of child was so spoiled by others that he wants what he wants, and thinks that the whole world owes him and everyone has to let him do whatever he wants . If anyone doesn’t follow him, they are the biggest bad guy in the world .

She didn’t care about this . The others were used to him, but she was not used to it, especially in the case just now . If Yu Weiyuan discovered that there was a person hidden in the junk room, it would be a really bad thing .

Thinking of the man in blue who she didn’t know where he came from, Yu Linglong looked solemn and gradually accelerated her pace .

There was still a lot to do tonight .

…

On this summer night, the heat of the day had gradually dissipated, and the insects sang briskly . The wind blew in from time to time, bringing a little coolness .

Yu Linglong didn’t want to appreciate such a leisurely night .

Although there were many subordinates in Pinlan Garden, she could only trust Xuan Cao and Ling’er . With the three of them, could she quietly send the seriously injured blue man out of the Yu house?

This was the first time since she came to the ancient times that she felt that there were too few people under her .

As she was looking for someone to push all the maids who were on the way back to the room and instruct them not to be allowed out, Yu Linglong secretly called Xuan Cao and Ling’er to make them do things as instructed .

Sitting in the room alone, she felt a little worried . Can these two little maids get things done? What if there was an accident?

She wasn’t afraid that people in the Yu Mansion would know it, but the people in black who were of unknown origin acted secretly and ruthlessly today, which really made her uneasy .

The cool evening breeze blew in from the carved window panes, blowing the candles out every now and then, and it seemed a bit cold at night .

Suddenly, there was a faint pop in the room, and an unknown hidden weapon flew in quickly from outside the window . The swaying candlelight was instantly extinguished, and Yu Linglong suddenly turned around: “Who’s there?”

In the darkroom, a long, dark figure suddenly appeared, with his face hidden in the dark, and indistinguishable . It was just that the repelling breath was so obvious .

With a cold snort, Yu Linglong slowly got up: “It’s a man, just come out with integrity! Why are you acting so sneaky!?”

As soon as her voice stopped, a man’s calm and steady voice sounded in the room: “You are so courageous . ”

This voice seemed to be familiar, and Yu Linglong thought about it for a moment, and then she knew who came .

Knowing the purpose of this person, Yu Linglong was relieved . She took a seat again and said lightly: “Thank you . I have always been very courageous . I thought you already knew . ”

The man’s figure moved slowly and walked to the bright spot in the room . Moonlight projected in through the window, s.h.i.+ning on the man’s face, and the silver mask glowed with a gloomy light . A layer of cold, hazy air added to the whole body of the black-robed man .

“Since you know it is me, then you should understand why I came here . ”

In the faint moonlight, Yu Linglong added some tea to her teacup, and took a sip: “Sorry, I don’t know why you came . ”

There were several thoughts flas.h.i.+ng through her mind . The man in black should have discovered that Feng Xuanyuan was missing when he was collecting the bodies on the mountain . According to her guess, those people in blue clothes were willing to give their lives to fight for Feng Xuanyuan’s chance to escape . Feng Xuanyuan must be important to them .

Similarly, for the men in black, Feng Xuanyuan should also be an important target to hunt down . This man’s visit late at night must also be because of Feng Xuanyuan’s disappearance .

On the mountain road, there were only three groups of them . The blue people have all been killed, so the missing Feng Xuanyuan could only be hidden in the carriage from the Yu house, taking advantage of the chaos to get down the mountain . This result was easy to infer .

But she couldn’t admit it . Once she did, Feng Xuanyuan would definitely die . She didn’t care about the life of this strange man, but in this way, she was bound to be involved in this dark whirlpool .

What she had to do now was to send Feng Xuanyuan out of the Yu house as soon as possible, and from then on, they would be irrelevant to pa.s.sers-by .

Therefore, when the black-clothed man pressed on, she did not hesitate to deny it .

But obviously, the man did not believe her .

In the deep eyes, there seemed to be heavy dark clouds rolling, and the man said coldly: “So, you want to save him?”

He did not ask her where Feng Xuanyuan was . Perhaps he had already determined that Feng Xuanyuan had been hidden by Yu Linglong .

She was silent but unflinching . In the darkness, her face was astonis.h.i.+ngly white, as if shrouded in hazy silver light, and her bright eyes flashed with fine cold light, and she met the man’s gaze . At that moment, the moonlight suddenly faded outside the window .

The black-clothed man couldn’t get Yu Linglong’s answer . His big hand gradually clenched, and his knuckles cracked, full of threatening power .
