accomplice

Heavy rain, pouring down.

Wash away the sin and anger of this group of people.

Zuo Ji finally got the result he wanted.

Except for Zhong Sheng, the rest of the corpses and stumps were thrown into the fire by the people who cleaned the battlefield.

There was an indescribably strange smell in the air.

Zhang Chang and his apprentices were rescued.

Zhong Sheng was buried by Zuo Ji himself.

He found a suitable place in the woods, dug a hole, put a strand of his hair in Zhong Sheng's palm, and wrote his and Zhong Sheng's names on the simple wooden tombstone, As if the real Zuo Ji had been buried with Zhong Sheng in the same cave.

Li Xi who accompanied him couldn't understand what he was doing, and said to him, "Do you remember the past?"

The tears in Zuo Ji's eyes fell with the rain, he was silent for a while, and said: "Yes."

Li Xi's eyes widened.

Surprised, helpless, lost.

At that moment, Li Xi felt a big blow and didn't know what to do.

he went.

Zuo Ji turned his head and silently looked at his back that was drifting away, his heart was as heavy as soaked cotton.

"Why did you lie to him?"

Bai Mayan's voice came from behind.

Zuo Ji withdrew his gaze, looked back, and said, "You won't understand."

Of course Bai Mayan understood.

Isn't it just to keep Li Xi out of the matter?

However, he has never thought that it is too late to separate the relationship now.

The Holy One knew the delicate relationship between Li Xi and Zuo Ji, but today, Li Xi failed to complete the task, not only that, he also killed the person sent by the second prince, ruining the good deed of the second prince.

"If you want to keep him, you should not sever ties with him, but you should ensure that he will always stand by our side."

"His elder brother is a big celebrity around Li Jue." Zuo Ji was dissatisfied: "You persuaded me to do this because you wanted to use him to contain Li Qian and let the two brothers fight each other."

The corners of Bai Mayan's mouth curled up.

He didn't deny it, but said: "Or maybe, you just made him an 'orphan'. You should know that neither the Holy One nor Li Jue will let him go."

Li Jue is not a magnanimous person.

Even if it was for Li Qian's sake, it would be fine on the surface, but he dared to say that Li Jue would not only kill Li Xi, but also put the crime on Zuo Ji.

Because if you do this, hatred will make Li Qian more loyal.

Wu Yu is happy to see the success, and will turn a blind eye to it.

Zuo Ji, on the other hand, became the enemy of the Li family because of his "irresponsibility".

"You and I both know that Li Xi is a talent. It's up to you whether you should keep him or waste him. Maybe you should seriously think about him."

Zuo Ji felt even heavier.

He understood that this was another multiple choice question with only one standard answer.

He couldn't make up his mind, and felt uneasy. In the end, when he saw Mo Jia coming with an umbrella and heard their conversation, he was even more flustered.

"How did you get out?"

The injuries on Mo Jia's body are very serious. Although they have been treated, there is a high chance of infection. It is raining outside, so what if they get caught in the rain.

On the handsome face that was frowning tightly because of the great pain, there was darkness in the silent eyes.

Mo Jia knew what he had just heard.

Bai Mayan is guiding Zuo Ji, asking him to tie Li Xi with his feelings.

He didn't want to see this.

But he knew he had no right to interfere.

Mo Jia said to him, "Can you hand over the Holy Majesty?"

When Wu Yu was mentioned, Zuo Ji's eyes immediately changed.

"What's the rush?" Zuo Ji felt annoyed, staring at him: "Are you my man, or his man?"

Mo Jia lowered his eyes and did not speak.

Zuo Ji, who originally wanted to ask him what he thought of Li Xi, was even more unhappy.

Zuo Ji withdrew his gaze, walked around him.

Bai Mayan knew that Mo Jia was feeling bad, but he didn't comfort him.

Because he knew that doing so was also the best for Mo Jia.

At the very least, the person Wu Yu will deal with in the future will not be Mo Jia, will he?

"Let's go."

Bai Mayan said to him.

Mo Jia glanced at him, turned around and followed him in the direction Zuo Ji left.

Before returning to the medicine hut, Mo Jia's footsteps flickered.

He watched Zuo Ji pull Li Xi who was about to leave and hugged him.

Li Xi was very surprised.

Being held tightly in Zuo Ji's arms, he was at a loss for a moment, and at the end, he hugged him back at a loss and said, "Didn't you say you remembered everything?"

"I remember everything." Zuo Ji rested his chin on Li Xi's shoulder, and stared at Mo Jia through him, and said, "...but I didn't say I forgot you."

Li Xi couldn't help laughing.

What a surprise this was for him.

He hugged Zuo Ji tightly.

The extreme joy of regaining what was lost was in stark contrast to Mo Jia's cold face at the moment.

Mo Jia's hands gradually turned into fists.

Bai Mayan noticed it and called him in a low voice.

"I know, I'm not qualified."

Mo Jia lowered his eyes, concealed his disappointment, and walked away.

And his indifference made Zuo Ji feel very uncomfortable.

Zuo Ji watched him leave, tears rolled in his eyes unconsciously, finally lowered his head, and buried his face on Li Xi's shoulder.

he was thinking.

Maybe, that's all there is to it...
