The night is dark, in the deepest part of the forest, in the darkest part of the night——Lan Tangying leans on a thick tree trunk, staring up at the sky in a daze, her eyes are condensed with sadness, and she is dazed in a daze. Seriously think about something.

A soldier ran from a distance at the fastest speed, with panic on his face, knelt in front of him and reported: "My lord, that man named Lu Wuchen is really powerful. We have sent a total of 42 assassins this time. In the end, not only did it fail, but no one survived! Look, should we continue?"

Lan Tangying suddenly came back to his senses, lowered his head and asked him, "So, is he injured?"

The kneeling man frowned, as if he was a little puzzled, and said hesitantly: "It seems that the Lord is not injured, but the person who followed him seems to have suffered a serious injury to protect him."

"Who is following him?" Lan Tangying was a little puzzled, "Can you see clearly what kind of person it is?"

"I didn't pay much attention!" The kneeling man thought hard for a while, "I'm too far away, so I didn't see it clearly, but it should be a human!!"

"Human!" Lan Tangying shook her head, it should be someone she doesn't know, probably it doesn't matter!

"Then my lord ---" the man kneeling in front of him summoned up his courage again and asked, "What should we do now? Are we still looking for a chance to assassinate?"

"What are you going to kill?" Lan Tangying hooked the corners of her lips, finally showing the first smile of the day, "Let's go back now! And we must report the truth to the superiors, that Lu Wuchen's strength is really It's too scary! Not only did we fail to assassinate many times, but we also damaged many young masters in the clan. The loss is simply incalculable!! Therefore, in the future, no matter who makes such a decision, it is better not to make it lightly. How much better would it be to deal with Jiulan, Litu and Bailu?!"

As he spoke, he strode back briskly, leaving behind the man who knelt in the shadows and didn't dare to move, still inexplicably: Hey, why does he think that his lord's assassination failed this time more than that? In the past, you would be happy if you won a battle?You know, after experiencing such a failure, you will definitely be punished when you go back, right?It will even involve a lot of people. At that time, the storm will definitely not be able to escape!

So, he must have read it wrong!right!He must have read it wrong! !

There seems to be a strong smell of blood floating in the air, floating on the side of the nose, slowly, bit by bit, seeping into the depths of the heart... It will never go away!

When Zhui Shengling woke up, he blinked vigorously and waited for a long time before he saw clearly that he seemed to be in a hollow cave somewhere at the bottom of the mountain, surrounded by jagged rocks and pitch black as far as his eyes could see. Occasionally, the sound of lingling water can be heard in the distance.He frowned and sat up abruptly.

There was no sign of Jiu Lanshu around him. He still remembered that they fell together. Now, where did that person fall?

"Are you awake?" In a dark corner not far away that was completely covered in black, Jiu Lanshu sat quietly against the wall, watched him wake up, and couldn't help asking him softly.

"Are you all right? Are you hurt?"

Zhui Shengling frowned slightly. To be honest, if it wasn't for the shock of the soul before and the consumption of power afterwards, he wouldn't have passed out all of a sudden.So up to now, he is only a little tired, and there is no half scar on his body, so what else can he do?

If something happened, it should be him!

Thinking of this, Zhui Shengling stood up, got up and walked to Jiu Lanshu, squatted down to look at him, and there was imperceptible worry in his voice, "How do you feel? Is it serious? Let me see-- ---"

He stretched out his hand to him, and the light in the palm of his hand emerged, which was a small healing array.However, in the next second, Jiu Lanshu blocked his hand and shook his head slightly at him.

"Don't waste your energy, you've tried it before, it didn't work!"

He was referring to the previous time on the mountain, Zhuo Shengling tried it before, and the healing array didn't work on him at all.Naturally, both of them still remember this incident. In fact, now, Zhuo Shengling is just unwilling to reconcile and wants to try again!But obviously, Jiu Lanshu didn't intend to let him do that.

The two began to raise their heads at the same time, and looked at the gap where they fell. It looked very thin, and it was high above the ground. It was covered by weeds, and it should be difficult to find outside.But at the same time, it was difficult for the two of them to go out the same way.

"The assassins outside are ruthless enough. If they really want to kill us, they should send more than this wave. They should be searching for us everywhere at this time. You consume too much power, so it is not appropriate to confront them head-on. Therefore, Let's go another way!" Jiu Lanshu said softly.

Cone Shengling didn't refute, but just looked at him with some worry.At this time, his face looked a little too pale, and from the beginning to the end, he stayed in place without moving, and he didn't even change his posture.

The smell permeating the air became more and more intense, and Jian Shengling's heart seemed to be tightly clenched. Looking at him, his eyes gradually showed a little distress, and it seemed that there was a bit of self-blame and anger.

"Before you go out, let me help you deal with it!"

This time, Jiu Lanshu didn't say anything more, and let him do nothing.Cone Shengling stretched out his hand cautiously to untie his clothes, only then did he realize how deep the wound on his body was, and the blood was bleeding a lot, which couldn't be stopped for a while.

"You --------" Zhui Shengling was a little annoyed, and the tone of his mouth was full of hatred, "You said that you are not a pure-blooded king? Is there nothing you can do now?!"

Vampires have powerful healing abilities, which is almost a well-known fact, but why do they ignore things when they come to him?

"My power is now locked in the curse disk, and it will not be of much use for a while! However, you don't need to worry about anything, it just heals a little slowly and it will take some time, just wait for me for a while!!"

His expression was very relaxed and serious, Zhui Shengling had no reason not to believe it, so after he helped him bandage the wound, he sat down next to him, and the two began to chat about each other.

"You said, you were already incapable at that time, but just now—why did you choose to rush to save me without hesitation?"

Jiu Lanshu's brows and eyes darkened slightly, and a deep emotion was condensed in his eyes, "I didn't think about it that much at the time, so you don't have to take it to heart-------!"

Zhui Shengling paused, with a little helplessness in his eyes, "But you said at the time——you like me!!"

"No! I love you!" Jiu Lanshu didn't want to deny this at all, and said it easily, "But what's the use? Do you like me? So, let's stop talking about this It's a topic!"

This topic obviously made him very painful, but Cone Shengling felt that he became more and more curious about it.Because, he suddenly found that he couldn't avoid a certain strange feeling that suddenly appeared in his heart.

At first, everything about this person seemed like a deep mystery to him, which made him want to peel it off involuntarily, wanting to find out, and in the process, before he discovered it, he He has already put too much emotion into this, he is used to paying attention to his every move, used to discover all his emotions, used to think about the reasons why he does everything, used to do everything necessary or not because of him. Necessary, sometimes it can even be called - some messy thinking --------

In short, he suddenly discovered to his surprise that he was used to it—to look at him deeply!As long as he is by his side, he will often involuntarily keep his eyes on him too much, wanting to get closer, want to dig, and want to see something deeper-------

But the current distance is far from enough!

"Then what kind of person was I once? Why do you like-------No! Are you in love with me?"

Cone Shengling was still not reconciled, so he continued to ask.

"Do you need a reason to love someone?" Apparently, Jiu Lanshu had never thought about this question, so he thought about it seriously, and it seemed that after a long time, he suddenly let out a chuckle, with a slightly cool tone , full of self-deprecation.He only heard him softly say: "It turned out to be really funny!! I don't even know the reason so far, so I just fell into it in such a muddle!!"

"-------"

They seemed to be silent for a while.In the dark, the faces of the two people were not very clear, so Jiu Lanshu didn't have much worries when he spoke, he just heard his tone slightly astringent, and suddenly said with emotion: "Maybe! You are really my destiny! Or maybe, It's because—you are a person who can't be loved! You are simply—sent from heaven, evildoer!" He finally gritted his teeth, and finally summed up these two words!

This kind of evaluation is simply too weird, I really didn't expect it to come from this person's mouth, so that Zhui Shengling's hand trembled suddenly, and then he looked at him in surprise.But in the end, seeing Jiu Lanshu's calm expression, he just kept silent for a while innocently, and then shook his head helplessly.

Then, he couldn't help but sighed softly and asked, "By the way, how much do you like me?"

"My love for you -------- maybe not much, but -------- probably a little more than Xia Mo, than life and death -------- A little farther away...!!"

The deep dark night intentionally concealed all the expressions floating on the faces of the two people at the moment, only the clear and sad voice of that person, drifting, came slowly -------- for a moment it seemed to penetrate the air, penetrate the The stone wall, piercing through thick clothes, penetrating endless space and time, suddenly smashed into people's hearts!

The time is quiet, and in the dark of the cave, there is only silence left in the end.

The two rested for a long time, Jiu Lanshu finally stood up and said to him, "Let's go!"

Cone Shengling stood up after him, but still looked at him worriedly for a while, "Are you really all right?" No matter how you look at it, his face still doesn't look like he's all right.

"Well! It's all right!" Jiu Lanshu didn't say much, just responded lightly, then turned around and walked to the front first.

"It sounds like there is water here, there should be an exit!"
