Chapter 229: Injuried
Chapter 229 Injured
"careful-"
Ji Xun exclaimed from behind.
Lu Zhuo's heart tightened. At the critical moment, another sharp silver light suddenly appeared, and the tip of the knife was hit by an inch. Then, Lu Zhuo felt himself being pulled by someone, and with a "bang" sound, the silver knife was cut down. The dagger flashed forward, and another cold light flashed through. A cry of pain escaped from the mouth of the man on the ground, and the dagger and half of his wrist fell to the ground.
The bright red blood immediately spread all over the snow. People inside heard the noise outside and came out to take a look.
The man on the ground was still struggling, and a sharp silver knife was pressed against his throat.
Pei Yunying held her in his arms and stared coldly at the people on the ground, with murderous intent concentrated in his eyes.
“Who sent you?”
The yamen servant was rolling on the ground holding his severed hand.
A boot stepped on his wrist.
"explain."
"It's the Grand Master! It was the Grand Master who asked me to come!"
The people on the ground finally couldn't bear the severe pain and shouted: "The Grand Master asked me to follow Lu Zong to Sunan and take the opportunity to kill her!"
Lu Zhuo was startled, and the medical officers of the Imperial Guard who rushed out from all around were also stunned.
Lu Xu lowered his eyes.
Several times before, she did feel someone's spying eyes on her, but she had been in peace for a long time when she arrived in Sunan. Later, she paid close attention to everything and found nothing wrong.
It turned out to be not an illusion.
Qi Yutai is dead, and she is no longer of use to the Qi family while alive. What's more, for Qi Qing, as long as he has suspicion, he can start without evidence.
She is a dead person in Qi Qing's eyes, both in Shengjing and Sunan.
Duan Xiaoyan glanced behind him. The patients in the hospital gathered at the door and looked around. They were afraid that the patients would see such a **** scene. Duan Xiaoyan looked at the people on the ground and asked: "Sir, what should I do?"
The silver sword was sheathed, and Pei Yunying said: "Drag it away."
He let go of Lu Huan, frowned and looked at her: "Are you injured?"
Lu Zhen shook his head, and just as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly froze.
From the thick white snow on the ground, drops of bright red fell down and bloomed into flowers on the snow.
His silver sword had been put back into its scabbard, and Lu Zhuo's eyes looked up and landed on the left arm of the person in front of him.
The black scale guard uniform is gorgeous and tough, with a cold color. Even if it is injured, it is difficult to see clearly. However, if you look closely, there is a thin knife mark on the left arm, and blood is dripping from there.
“Are you hurt?” she asked.
Just now when the yamen officer flashed a dagger at her, it was Pei Yunying who pulled her away. The dagger was right in front of his eyes. He blocked the knife for her. Otherwise, the knife should have pierced her heart.
Pei Yunying glanced down and said nonchalantly: "Small injury."
He was still looking at her, looking her over, as if to confirm whether she was really okay.
Cai Fang and Li Wenhu trotted over from a distance. They looked at Duan Xiaoyan and others dragging away the killer just now. They looked a little frightened: "How could a thief get into the county government office..."
"It was directed at me." Lu Yan said, "It's my fault."
"This..." The two of them didn't know what was going on in Shengjing, so they looked at each other for a moment.
Pei Yunying looked at Lu Huo.
"I'm trying to kill you, or I have an accomplice." Pei Yunying said, "I'm going to interrogate the person, and you go back and rest first." He then called a guard over his shoulder and ordered the guard to guard her. He turned around and left regardless of the scar on his left arm. went.
Lu Zhen looked at his back and his eyes fell on the snow in front of him.
The snow was all silvery white, and the bright red blood stains just now were like a flowing river, which was shocking.
She clenched her palms.
…
It was a great celebration with heavy snow, but suddenly such an accident happened, and everyone was a little uneasy.
Lu Zhen returned to the hospital, changed the medicine as usual, and then went back to his dormitory to continue making medicine bags.
As I was doing it, I became a little absent-minded.
The great revenge was avenged, and all those who deserved to die were killed. She thought that everything in this world had been settled clearly. She returned to Sunan, waiting for death that would come at an unknown time, but she met Pei Yunying at this time.
Just like the debt note written on the wall back then, the debtor and the debt collector cannot be counted clearly.
Thinking of the scar on Pei Yunying's left arm when he left, a sudden irritation arose in his heart.
The medicine bag was tightly held on the fingertips. There were footsteps outside the door. Lu Yan raised his eyes. Duan Xiaoyan came in with a smiling face outside the window: "Medical Officer Lu."
Lu Tong has a meal.
The young man walked briskly and walked into the room naturally and sat down opposite her. "I've finished interrogating the person just now. I'll come over to see you."
Lu Zong looked at him: "What's the result?"
"What else can happen? The old man surnamed Qi has lost his own son and has to drag others to be buried with him. When you leave Sunan, you will send people to follow you and plan to kill you on the way. If it weren't for my brother's foresight, He has already taken advantage of it.”
“Pei Yunying?”
"Yes," Duan Xiaoyan said: "Brother Yun Ying guessed that Qi Laogou must not be holding back his good intentions. So he arranged for his people among the guards escorting the medical officer to be on guard at all times. They kept a close eye on them, and those people didn't notice. ”
"Later we also came. There were more people in Sunan, and the assassins couldn't find any opportunities, so they jumped over the wall in a hurry."
Duan Xiaoyan picked up a medicine bag in the basket and said, "Don't worry, the assassins have been recruited. There are several people hiding in Sunan City, and they have been captured now. Now that the Qi family has fallen, no one will take your life again." "
Lu Zhen was silent and just stared at the small basket. After a moment, he asked: "How is his injury?"
Duan Xiaoyan blinked and seemed to realize that what Lu Ye was talking about was that Pei Yunying had been stabbed on the left arm just before he saved her. He slapped the table and shouted: "Oh, it's quite serious. When we interrogated the prisoner just now, his face was so white." Scary, almost fainted.”
Lu Chen said calmly: "The guard in front of the palace should not be so weak. Besides, I have seen his wounds, and they are not as serious as you said."
The young man rolled his eyes and said, "Medical Officer Lu, you are a little blind. My brother was in chaos in Qishui, and it was not easy to see swords and swords flashing every day. As soon as the chaos was calmed down, he immediately rushed to southern Jiangsu with medicine and food. So. People are already weak when they are running around, and this injury makes it even worse.”
“He is injured, don’t you go and see?”
Without waiting for Lu Yan to answer, Duan Xiaoyan grinned again, "Actually, that's why I came to you. My brother has returned to his dormitory after interrogating the person. The doctor is busy at the hospital and asked me to find a medical officer to treat Yun. Brother Ying is bandaging. I see that everyone can't move away. Fortunately, you are here. Doctor Lu, I put the bandaging medicine and strips outside the door. After all, my brother was injured because of you. You are so good at healing. I’ll rest assured if he leaves it to you.”
He stood up and threw the medicine bag back into the basket, "I still have official duties to attend to, so I'll go out first."
After saying this, before Lu Zhuo could speak, he ran out of the house as if he were running away.
He ran so fast that it was too late for Lu Yan to scream again. He kept silent for a moment, put down the medicine bag in his hand and walked out of the house. As expected, there was a medicine tray on the stone table in the yard, with clean water and cloth strips in it, as well as some injuries. medicine.
She walked to the stone table, sighed slightly in her heart, and finally picked up the medicine holder.
…
The guards' quarters were very close to the medical officer's quarters.
In order to protect the medical officer, Cai Fang specially found two adjacent houses.
The guards followed Cai Fang out at this moment, and there was no one else in the yard.
When Qing Feng saw Lu Huan, her eyes flashed with surprise. When she saw the medicine she was holding, she turned sideways and opened the door for Lu Huan.
Lu Zong walked in and closed the door behind him.
The room was very dark, and the windows were not opened. This winter day in Southern Jiangsu was gloomy, and the day seemed like evening. There was a candle burning on the table, and under the flickering light, a figure was faintly visible behind a screen.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the other party did not move either. Lu Zhuo walked in holding the medicine tray. When he walked around the screen in front of him, he saw a tall figure sitting at the table with his back to her. He was only wearing a dark coat. He turned his head and took off the clothes under his shoulders, exposing his left arm. A dripping wound.
There is water and wound medicine on the table, and it seems that he plans to apply the medicine himself.
Sensing someone approaching, he said, "Get out."
Lu Zong put down the medicine tray.
He frowned slightly, and when he raised his head, he was suddenly startled.
“Duan Xiaoyan asked me to give you medicine.” Lu Yan said.
Pei Yunying looked at her and said nothing.
Lu Zhen raised her eyes and motioned for him to put down his arms. When he put down his arms, she reached out and took off Pei Yunying's clothes.
When his fingertips touched the bare skin, both of them paused for a moment. Soon, Lu Zhu put away his thoughts and peeled off his outer clothes.
The clothes were completely taken off, revealing the young man's naked half-body. He has a slender and strong figure. He has practiced martial arts all year round. His texture is clear and his outline is smooth like a beautiful cheetah. He has a sense of strength that is ready to go.
Lu Zhen has seen many people’s bodies.
Men, women, old people, children, living and dead, just as Lin Danqing said, doctors are used to seeing the bodies of sick people. She had never seen Pei Yunying naked before, but at this moment, her heart suddenly flashed. A slight feeling of discomfort made her movements to take the medicine less familiar than before.
This rawness was captured by Pei Yunying.
He glanced at her, paused, and suddenly said: "Why don't you dare to look at me?"
Lu Zhen tightened his handkerchief, but his tone remained calm: "Master Pei is overthinking."
She lowered her head and said this, her expression as calm as ever, but she didn't look into his eyes at all.
Pei Yunying lowered his eyes and watched her movements.
Lu Tong used a handkerchief to clean the wound on his arm. The assassin's wound was not deep, and he avoided it in time. She took the medicine bottle, applied the plaster to his wound, and then selected a piece of clean white cloth to bandage him.
Throughout the whole process, neither of them spoke. The wind and snow outside the window were silent, with the occasional sound of heavy snow crushing branches.
In the silence, Lu Yan felt the gaze above his head falling on him, and it was so intense that he couldn't ignore it.
There was no charcoal pot in the house. Materials were in short supply in southern Jiangsu, so everything for heating was kept close to the house and the people in southern Jiangsu. It was clearly a cold day, but Lu Zhuo felt his cheeks were a little warm.
“You have been avoiding me since I arrived in Sunan.”
Pei Yunying's voice came from above.
"What are you afraid of? Do you think I will keep pestering you?"
Lu Zong was startled, raised his head, and met his gaze.
His tone was very calm, and his expression was also indifferent. His handsome face was not as funny and friendly as before. Lin Danqing asked her several times in private if anything unknown had happened to Pei Yunying, which made this reunion seem particularly unfamiliar. .
She deliberately avoided Pei Yunying, and Pei Yunying did not try to get closer. They were like two unfamiliar strangers, maintaining an indifferent distance.
Lu Zhen did not answer his words, and only said: "Why did you send people to protect me in southern Jiangsu?"
He looked at her for a while, then looked away: "It's just a matter of convenience."
“I made you miss the opportunity to retaliate against Qi Qing with your own hands,” he said. “You should be responsible to the end.”
Lu Yan was silent.
He always talks about these things lightly.
Lu Zong's eyes fell on his chest again: "Is this the injury he received in Qishui?"
He had a lot of scars on his body, fresh and ferocious, which together with the clumsy and tender wounds made many years ago, left scars on the cheetah's body.
Pei Yunying glanced at it and said nonchalantly: "It's almost done."
Lu Zhu lowered his head.
She heard Cai Fang and Li Wenhu say that Pei Yun reflected the majesty of the Qishui rebels. They worshiped and praised his bravery and good fighting skills in front of the medical officers countless times. However, Lu Zhu knew that the Qishui rebels had been causing trouble for a long time and had suppressed the rebellion several times before. Not sure, it will definitely not be easy.
At the moment, that should be difficult.
Pei Yunying looked down at her for a moment, then suddenly said: "Are you worried about me?"
Without waiting for Lu Yan to speak, he said faintly: "What are you worried about now? Medical officer, or something else?"
Lu's throat and hair are tight.
Hand holding the cloth tightly, she felt as if she had been seen through in an instant. She could not stay here for a moment longer, otherwise, if she stayed there any longer, it would be difficult for the other party to not notice clues based on her intelligence.
She stood up and put the medicine bottle on the table.
"Your injury is bandaged. I'll leave the plaster here. You can change it again at night." She said, "I will send you the soup and medicine later."
After saying that, he bent down and picked up the basin on the table, and was about to go out.
Pei Yunying looked at Lu Shun.
She spoke in a calm tone, but she didn't know how flustered her steps were.
Lu Yun was much thinner than when she was in Shengjing. I wonder if it was because she worked too hard to treat the epidemic. Her originally thin body now looked even weaker and her face was very pale. Her gray-green cotton robe made her look like she was about to freeze. The little animals are about to fall asleep in this cold and severe snow.
His heart moved and he couldn't help but call her: "Lu Zhu."
She stopped and said, "Master Pei, do you have any other instructions?"
Xiao Xiao Shuo Xue, the vast sky, the outside of the house is a bit sober.
He looked at her for a long time and said, "It's nothing."
…
Lu Zhen returned to his place of residence.
The unfinished medicine bag had been taken out of the medicine basket on the table. There was no one in the room, so she sat down under the window.
Facing the small courtyard outside the window, the shadow of Luomei Peak can be seen in the distance, and in the cold forest, there are faintly glimpses of bright red.
Lu Zhen was slightly in a trance.
The red plum blossoms in Luomei Peak have always bloomed well. The heavier the snow, the more colorful they become. The branches are full of stunning colors. In the past, she always sat under the tree, imitating Yun Niang. The icy snow always made people calm, and even the most depressed mood could be calmed here.
Today I can't calm down at all.
There are some things that I don’t seem to be able to control as completely as I think, let alone be able to cut them off cleanly and neatly, just like the endless willow thread, broken and reborn, completely endless.
Suddenly there was an itching sensation in my nose, as if there were tiny insects squirming out of it.
Lin Danqing came in from the door with a medical box in his arms and said with a smile: "Xiaoxue today, the medicinal soup sent by Pei Dianshuai is good. I just went to the hospital to see it. Everyone is in much better spirits. Let's drink it later..."
"Clang-" sound.
Lin Danqing’s medical box fell from her hand, and she looked at her and said in surprise: “Sister Lu, why do you have a nosebleed!”
Lu Zong lowered his head blankly and couldn't help but be startled.
There is bright red and dazzling red dripping from the tip of the nose.
One drop, another drop.
Like the gorgeous red plum blossoms blooming on the plum blossom peak, the delicate red color gradually stained her dress.
