Bloodkiller - Chapter 24
Lin Yi noticed the man’s gaze, turned his head and raised his eyebrows at him.
Unexpectedly, Yao Chuan turned away and just shook his head, not telling the reason. Seeing that his eyes were erratic and panicked, Lin Yi had already made some guesses in his heart, but now was the critical moment, and he didn’t tease much, he just laughed secretly in his heart.
Yao Chuan took the gourd that was missing from his waist, coughed twice, and said: “ I’m going to pick flowers. You stay here. If things change, you will act accordingly. ”
Hearing this, Lin Yi hurriedly tugged at his sleeves, frowned and said: “ stay slow! There is no movement here, if it is really unguarded ——”
He suddenly pulled over the hem of his clothes, tore off a piece of fabric with all his strength, and tied it tightly to Yao Chuan’s right hand, instructing: “ Beware of the flowers and plants in the garden, do not touch them easily. ”
Yao Chuan understood that he pinched Lin Yi’s right hand through the cloth, and then walked to the garden with his skills. He was light and strong, but after taking three or four steps, he flashed to the side of the flower garden. It was still unclear from a distance. At this moment, he looked closer and saw that the flowers and plants in the garden were all planted on the periphery of the red epiphyllum, and they were blooming luxuriantly and brightly. Although they looked ordinary, none of them could be named by Yao Chuan.
Some are shaped like peach blossoms but have thorny branches, while others are shaped like orchids but have purple bottom leaves.
He was startled in his heart, and he felt that Lin Yi’s concerns were reasonable, and his movements were more careful. He only walked slowly to avoid these flowers and plants. He walked like this for about half a quarter of an hour, and when he was close to the center, he stretched out his right hand wrapped in a cloth belt. Take the red epiphyllum.
Seeing him holding the flower stem and about to break off the flower branch, he heard a whoosh and a thin arrow hitting his wrist.
Yao Chuan quickly turned sideways to avoid each other. The arrow scoffed and hit the flower branch. Together with the freshly blooming strange flower, it sank into the mud. Yao Chuan’s heart was on fire and he stared up. He saw that the thin arrow was coming from the eaves. He took a closer look and saw several crossbowmen lurking in the darkness.
He was surprised in his heart and secretly doubted: It’s really strange. These ambush people are obviously not far away from me. Why am I not aware of their breath at all? Is it possible that these people know how to breathe a turtle?
Without waiting for him to think about it carefully, everyone on the eaves hurriedly set up their bows and crossbows again, and kept drawing their bows and shooting. Suddenly, dozens of thin arrows were fired in succession, and it was really like arrows raining down.
In the past, Yao Chuan was naturally fearless, but this place was very small and surrounded by poisonous flowers and plants. He had to be careful to protect the red epiphyllum, which was inconvenient for a while.
In desperation, he had no choice but to fly up and pull out the bl00d-drinking knife to meet him. After blocking it several times, he avoided all the thin arrows. Fine beads of sweat appeared on Yao Chuan’s forehead, and he kept looking back at the red epiphyllum. It was more than a moment later. If he didn’t take action, the flowers would be grateful!
Just when he was anxious, he suddenly heard someone coming from a distance, and a familiar female voice sounded: “ and stop. ”
The crossbowman was stunned when he heard this, and quickly disappeared, and Yao Chuan also took a moment’s breath.
He raised his eyes and saw that Messing was still sitting on her soft sedan chair, and there was a masked man standing on her side. He looked like a man. Yao Chuan glanced and turned to look at Messing again. The man looked sarcastic. Seeing his embarrassed appearance, he laughed loudly and said: “ What kind of peerless master is just Er’er! As soon as you move the tiger away from the mountain, you want to lie to me? But I don’t want to think that I have already done an ambush here! ”
Yao Chuan ignored her, took a few steps back, and stayed next to the red epiphyllum.
Messing shook his head and said: “ I advise you to move less. The flowers and plants in this garden are unusual. Even if you encounter a little ——, it can also make you taste that life is worse than death. ”
Yao Chuan smiled and said: “ Mrs. Mei wishes I would die, so how could she kindly remind me? There must still be something to discuss with the younger generation. ”
Seeing that the man was silent, he said again: “ juniors only pick one flower, so they have the right to save people! If Mrs. Mei is as useful as a junior, just speak out. ”
The woman sneered: “ still wants to make terms with me now, it’s really beyond my ability! ”
Yao Chuan looked at the man in black again and asked: “ oh? What if the younger generation said that they would like to exchange the bl00d-drinking knife in their hands? ”
Mei Xinxiu frowned and shouted sternly: “What did you say!? ”
Yao Chuan raised the sword high with his right hand. As soon as he was able to lift it, he only heard a miso sound, and the sword was half unsheathed and showed white light. Messing’s eyes moved and he hurriedly motioned to the person next to him. The masked man clenched his fists and only nodded to Messing.
Seeing this, Yao Chuan felt a little wider. He raised his voice and said: “ The younger generation is willing to exchange this knife, and I hope my wife will allow me to pick flowers. ”
Messing pondered for a moment, and finally agreed. She waved her hand, and the guards beside her took three steps back. She said again: “ I will believe you once. If you make other movements, this is where you will be buried! ”
Yao Chuan nodded and quickly leaned over to pick flowers. He moved quite hastily. The flowers were ruined by him and all the petals were rudely stuffed into the gourd by him. In the end, only a solitary cluster of stamens remained. Just in case, he wanted to reach out and pick another one, so he heard Messing say coldly: “ become a thief in person, will Shuanglongmen teach a disciple like you? ”
Yao Chuan didn’t care when he heard this. He only took the gourd and shook it in his ear. He smiled and said: “ Thank you Mrs. Mei for the medicine! ”
He tied the gourd tightly around his waist. Just as he was about to take action, he saw a crossbow set up on the eaves. Then he heard Messing scold: “ Throw the knife over quickly! ”
Yao Chuan smiled and said: “ junior is afraid of losing his sword, so it is better to go there in person. ”
He stood on tiptoe, stood up and wanted to jump outside, but suddenly felt numbness in his left calf, and then one of his knees
Soft, he was half kneeling on the ground! He secretly screamed badly in his heart and hurriedly lifted it with his hand. As a result, he saw that the fabric on his left leg was broken and there was another slight abrasion under it. He thought that he had been scratched by a thin arrow during the fierce fight just now and was infected with the poison in the garden!
Meixin sneered: “ the more you work hard, the faster this poison will spread. I’m afraid it will take less than half an hour for you to do so
It’s going to die! ”
Without Messing’s reminder, Yao Chuan also knew that the poison was very severe. His eyes were already a little blurry, and he felt severe pain in his abdomen, and cold sweat could not help but appear on his forehead.
Messing said proudly: “ If you hand over the bl00d-drinking knife now, I can also reward you with a happy life. If not. . . . . When all your internal organs are rotten and all your internal organs are useless, I can also take the knife easily, I’m afraid you won’t be happy. ”
Yao Chuan gasped in a rough voice, gritted his teeth and held back the severe pain, and trembled: “ It seems that Mrs. Mei. . . . . ”
Messings and the relationship between this man and Lin Yi, and seeing his tragic death, she felt very happy. She laughed loudly and said: “ little beast, why don’t you hand over the bl00d-drinking knife! ”
The two of them were in a stalemate. At this moment, several silver darts suddenly flew out and shot straight at Messing’s face.
The maid around her quickly stepped forward to protect her, and the masked man also jumped on the sedan chair, drew his sword and stood in front of her, sweeping the dart to the ground with just a few moves. Messing was panicked and angry, shouting while covering his face with his sleeves: “Who is plotting here!?”
But what responded to her was a shrill scream: “ niang —— niang ——”
She was in a state of confusion and hurriedly pulled the masked man away. When she raised her eyes, she saw her youngest son Chen Yi being tied up and thrown into the poisonous flowers. She was shocked and pushed the man in front of her and said: “ Laughing Shu! Quick, go save Xiaoshu ——”
The masked man remained motionless and only stood firmly in front of her.
Lin Yi had jumped to Yao Chuan’s side. He helped Yao Chuan, leaned most of his body on himself, patted his face with his hands, and said anxiously: “ Brother Chuan, Brother Chuan, are you okay? ”
Yao Chuan held back the severe pain and smiled at Lin Yi: “ If you come one step later. . . . . ..
Lin Yi looked up at Meixin, his eyes showing hatred, but his voice was extremely soft: “ Brother Chuan, don’t worry, I will definitely save you today. ”
He shouted to Messing: “ poisoned woman, hand over the antidote quickly, otherwise I will take Chen Yi to be buried with me! ”
Then Chen Xiaoshu was speechless at the moment. His body was “ soul-refining elixir ” and its toxicity was still unresolved. At this moment, his whole body was infected with poison in many places. I saw his whole body twitching and his mouth whimpering vaguely. His handsome face was extremely ferocious and covered with saliva and dirt, but he rolled his eyes and fainted after a while.
When Messing saw it, her heart felt like a knife. She said sadly: “ Linyi, you beast, b1tch! Xiaoshu is your own brother, so you treat him like this for an outsider! ”
Lin Yi ignored her. His face was calm, and he drew his sword and stabbed Chen Yi again. The wound was not deep, but a lot of bl00d flowed from the ground. He shouted: “ A bastard still wants to be my brother, I say it again, get the antidote! ”
Seeing that his eyes were about to split, Messing wanted to throw himself on Chen Yi to bear it on his behalf. She shouted to the masked man: “ go rescue Xiaoshu first, otherwise when I see the prince, I will chop off your head first! ”
The masked man paused, then turned sideways to make way. Messing ignored it and rushed straight towards Chen Yi. Due to the poisonous flowers, she could only stop five steps away. She took out a jade bottle from her waist with trembling hands, stared at Lin Yi and said: “ I will give you the antidote, you need to save Xiaoshu first! ”
Lin Yi’s face was cold, and he only put his sword against Chen Xiaoshu’s neck.
Messing was already a little crazy at the moment. With tears in her eyes, she cursed: “ you are as virtuous as your father. You, an unripe white-eyed wolf, have been so heartless since you were a child! ”
Lin Yi burst into a cold smile. The edge of his sword passed between Chen Xiaoshu’s neck, and a few bl00d marks oozed from there. He said: “ I said it for the last time and threw the antidote over. ”
Messing finally compromised and threw the jade bottle at Lin Yi. The man stopped and quickly fed the antidote into Yao Chuan’s mouth. He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing him swallow it.
He put his hands on Yao Chuan’s face and trembled slightly. Only then did he show a trace of fear.
. . . . .
Yao Chuan felt a little wet on his forehead, and he heard other people’s soft calls in his ears. As soon as he wanted to raise his hand, he was held by someone next to him. The person whispered: “. . . . . Brother Chuan, Brother Chuan, are you feeling better now? ”
He struggled to open his eyes, and saw Lin Yi gathering in front of him. There were tears in this man’s eyes, and he looked pitiful.
He felt a pain in his heart, caressed his face and asked: “. . . . . Why are you still crying? ”
Lin Yi only shook his head and did not answer.
He had no choice but to sit up straight and turn his head, only to see Messing staring at him not far away, with a pair of eyes full of resentment. Yao Chuan felt something in his heart. He looked around and realized that he was no longer in the center of the flowers. He quickly reached out and shook the gourd on his waist. Seeing that the thing was still there, he breathed a sigh of relief. In the blink of an eye, I saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy lying among the poisonous flowers. The man’s facial features were very beautiful, seven or eight points similar to Messing’s, but he was not awake at the moment, and his face was frighteningly pale.
Seeing this, he speculated in his heart, stood up and leaned against Lin Yi, and asked softly: “ What should I do now? ”
Lin Yizide said for the first time: “ was forced by her, and now only the last move is left. ”
On the side, Messing saw the two of them posting very close and whispering, and shouted with tears: “ Yao Chuan has woken up, and you haven’t given the antidote to Xiaoshu yet!? ”
Lin Yi chuckled, stood up, jumped into the flowers, pulled Chen Yi out with his collar, and threw him beside Mei Xin. He threw the antidote to the ground again and said with a smile: “ You don’t have to look at me like this. Look at Xiaoshu, aren’t you still alive and well? Not only that, I can also give you the second antidote to ‘ soul-refining elixir ’, and give you a good son who is very lively. What do you think? ”
Messing did not answer, but only cared about feeding the antidote to Chen Yi. After seeing him swallow it, he felt a big rock in his heart, so he handed over his younger son to the care of his subordinates. She stood up, glared at Lin Yi fiercely, and said: “ What conditions do you have? Or do you want that jade talisman? ”
“has no conditions, as long as you let me leave here. ”
The masked man heard this and said hurriedly: “ no! The owner has an order, that bl00d-drinking knife ——”
Messing waved his hand and sneered at Lin Yi: “ you are thinking beautifully, little beast, I will never spare you today! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she made another gesture, but there was no movement around. She shouted suspiciously: “ crossbowman! ”
But I heard a few screams coming from the eaves, and the crossbowmen actually rolled down one after another.
Messing was shocked and made the maid next to him step forward to protect him, but Yao Chuan had already drawn his sword and rushed up. These people were not medicine men, so they were naturally enemies of him. They were defeated after a while.
Messing said in surprise: “ you. . . . . . . . . Your toxicity has just been solved. . . . . Where are the guards and guards? ”
Lin Yi laughed loudly: “ Mom, I have already said that Brother Chuan is a master in the world. With your second-rate goods, how can you defeat him? As for your bodyguard ——, guess how many of them are mine? ”
Seeing that the situation was not good, the masked man quickly stepped forward to resist. This man had superb martial arts skills and dealt with Yao Chuan for a while. However, the remaining poison in Yao Chuan’s body was not clear, and after more than a hundred moves with him, he felt that his physical strength was insufficient. When Lin Yi saw this, he also raised his sword to meet him. The two of him cooperated quite tacitly, and the masked man he beat down was a little withdrawn.
Several people fought each other several times, and the man suddenly frowned and looked fiercely. Yao and Lin looked at each other and took a step back.
Yao Chuan said: “ If you continue fighting, you will lose both sides. Don’t you just want my knife? I’ll give it to you today. You went back to have a good relationship, and the two of me were able to save their lives. What do you think? ”
The man frowned and said nothing. Messing was afraid that he would leave him, so he hurriedly said: “ The prince has sent you to protect me. If you dare to leave, ——”
The masked man didn’t listen to her words. He was silent for a moment and said: “ my task is to drink bl00d knives, the rest is not important, I agreed to your request. ”
Yao Chuan laughed on his back: “ good, happy! ”
He threw the knife in his hand to the masked man, who was happy and really carried the knife away, regardless of Messing’s shouting.
Messing sat slumped on the ground, holding the unconscious Chen Yi in his arms. She and her son were hugging each other, but looking at her, mother and son were deeply in love. As soon as she wanted to speak, she heard someone shouting in the distance: “ Xin’er! Laughing! ”
She turned her head and saw a man running in the distance. This man’s footsteps were vain but his movements were very eager. It was Mei Xin’s lover Chen Chang. He knelt down next to Messing with a pounce, hugging her mother and son in his arms.
Messing finally burst into tears at this moment. She murmured: “ Chen Lang, why are you here? ”
Chen Chang wiped the tears on her face and said: “ As soon as I woke up, I heard Yue’er say something happened to you, and then I hurried over. ”
Messing didn’t ask who Yue’er was, he just shook his head and cried in his arms: “ you are so stupid. If you come here at this time, won’t your life be cut off in vain? ”
Chen Chang smiled and said: “ I deserve to die as a sinner. It is also a good thing that I can die in the hands of the Shaozhai master today. ”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Yi: “ Shaozhai Lord, the life of a slave should have been cut off by your hands long ago, but Xin’er. . . . . She is your biological mother after all, and I hope you will show kindness and spare her life! ”
When Lin Yi saw the two of them looking like this, he felt extremely disgusted. He drew his sword and approached, but did not point it at Chen Chang. He only pointed the blade at Meixin.
Seeing this, she burst into tears and asked in a trembling voice: “ Linyi, you. . . . . Do you really want to kill your biological mother? ”
Lin Yi asked: “ did you call the crossbowman just now? Didn’t you also want to take my life? What about mother and son? How did you ever think I was your son? ”
Yao Chuan’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He stepped forward and held Lin Yi’s hand holding the sword, but saw that the man did not look at him, but only smiled at Messing and said: “ However, unlike you, I am not only not going to kill you, but I also want to help you. You! I said before that I would give you the second antidote to ‘ soul-refining elixir ’, but —— you asked me three questions before, and now I will also give you three questions. If you tell the truth, not only will I not kill you, but also offer the antidote with both hands. What do you think? ”
What can Messing do? I had no choice but to agree with tears in my eyes.
Lin Yi then asked: Who is the person behind “ Meizhuang? ”
The man burst into tears, and Yao Chuan also said: “ I hope Mrs. Mei will tell me. ”
Messing’s voice choked up: “ is Liu Lin, King of Huai. ”
Yao Chuan frowned and continued: “ Please tell me more. ”
“Meizhuang’s information network is a continuation of Qingfeng Village in the early years. My father already knew about it, but later Lin Lie. . . . . Lin Lie died, so I wanted to move back to my parents’ home. Unexpectedly, the old man said that His Highness King Huai had a big thing to do. I needed the help of a charlatan, so I was allowed to stay in Qingfeng Village. And later, you. . . . . You drove me out of Qingfeng Village, and my father followed the plan and established a new Meizhuang for King Huai’s use. ”
Yao Chuan asked again: “What exactly does King Huai want to do, just want to find out the secrets of the world? ”
Messing raised his eyes and said slowly: “ for the bl00d-drinking knife. He sent many capable people to our house, and they all ended up doing it for the sword. ”
She stared at Yao Chuan again and said: “ The secret agent in my mansion once said that there are two bl00d-drinking knives in the world, one of which is inside the double dragon gate. It was only today that I realized that it was actually in your hands. ”
Yao Chuan then asked: “ which one is King Huai looking for, and what is the use of him looking for a bl00d-drinking knife? ”
Messing shook his head: “ This matter is very confidential and I don’t know. I once asked the prince’s men why they didn’t start directly from Shuanglongmen, but the man didn’t reply. I guessed that what they were looking for should be another bl00d-drinking knife. But today the man saw this in your hand, but he also wanted to take it away, so I can’t figure it out. ”
After hearing this, Yao Chuan’s face turned cold, and he turned to look at Lin Yi, but saw that the man was still staring at Meixin. He was worried that Lin Yi would make a big mistake on impulse, so he held his hand and took the flowing water sword into its sheath.
Lin Yi was very well-behaved, and only by his actions did he finally speak out:
“I have one last question, you have to answer me truthfully —— him. . . . . Did you kill him? ”
His voice trembled slightly, and he finally asked the question. Even though he saw it with his own eyes, he was still lucky. Perhaps, perhaps his father was not out of breath at the time, but died of illness while he was in a coma. . . . . .
He has hated this woman for many years, but he still wants to know the truth. Did his mother really kill his father with her own hands?
Messing swayed and smiled sadly: “ Didn’t you see it with your own eyes? Why ask again? ”
Lin Yi closed his eyes and said nothing, and then sneered a moment later: “ I know, as for the antidote, I have given it to Miss Chen Yue before. It’s just that there is only one last dose left of that medicine. It all depends on your heart whether you choose to save your lover or your son. ”
He shook Yao Chuan’s hand, turned around and wanted to leave.
But Messing went on to say: “ of course I want to kill him, I must kill him. . . . . Only he is dead. Only in this way and this way is he my husband and my husband alone. . . . . ”
Lin Yi’s heart was like a sword, and he didn’t want to listen to her talk any more, but he heard the woman shout sadly:
“earthen ——”
He paused with both feet. How many years had he never heard her call him that? I’m afraid it’s been more than ten years. She hates her father, so naturally she won’t like herself.
He heard a voice behind him:
“When I was pregnant with you, I wanted to name you ‘yi’, and I just hope you will be happy for the rest of your life. But he said, he said he had already given you a name, and it was called ‘ eup, and it was called Lin eup. I also thought at the time that although this son was a little weird, at least he had the same pronunciation as ‘ Yi’, so I let him go. How could I know that this was not a name for my child, but for the b1tch’s son! ”
Her eyes hurt, and two lines of tears rolled down: “ The b1tch’s ancestral home is Pingyangyi County, haha. . . . . ‘ every time I hear him call you ’, , my throat is filled with vomiting! You don’t understand. . . . . Sometimes I look at you and your father and son have a deep love, and they all think you are that b1tch. son! ”
When Messing turned his head, he could vaguely see a few streaks of gray on his temples. He only heard her smile sadly, and tears fell from his eyes: “ you. . . . . How can I not hate him? ”
Yao Chuan looked at Lin Yi in the blink of an eye and saw that the man’s face was full of mourning, and his heart was painful and pitiful. He only held Lin Yi’s hand tightly and took him quickly away from this place of right and wrong.
