On killing the protagonist
Chapter 40 The Seventh Moon!
Just when Ye Hanjiang clenched his dagger tightly and was about to fight with his life, a cold light flashed in front of the two of them in the blink of an eye.
Pretending that Gu Qinuo changed his forward momentum within one-sixteenth of a second, he jumped backwards suddenly. The moment his feet left the ground, a black horizontal knife was nailed to the ground with a "bang" sound. On the floor where he was standing just now, half of the blade hadn't gone in.
Ye Hanjiang was startled, if it wasn't for the fake Gu Qinuo who quickly dodged, the horizontal knife might have pierced his head.
He looked back and saw a familiar figure standing at the entrance of the alley not far away. His left hand was still in the motion of swinging the knife, and he looked coldly at the person who dared to pretend to be himself.
When his eyes touched the wound on Ye Hanjiang's shoulder, Gu Qinuo's face turned cold, he pulled out the knife on the ground, looked at the figure, and said coldly: "You are courting death."
It was the first time for Ye Hanjiang to discover that the furious Gu Qinuo was so terrifying. Although he was expressionless on weekdays, he gave people a different feeling. At this moment, he looked like a volcano that had been suppressed hard. The explosion is done.
When the fake Gu Qinuo saw the real Gu Qinuo's figure, without any hesitation, he immediately turned around and ran away.
"Arnuo..." Before the poor Kou Mozhui could utter the words, Ye Hanjiang only heard Gu Qinuo shout: "Take care of Xiaojiu."
Following the arrow that was flying from the string, they chased straight away, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared in the dark corner.
Familiar footsteps came from behind, Ye Hanjiang didn't need to turn his head to know that it was Ye Qiu and Zhang Li, he looked anxiously at the corner of the street, that fake Gu Qinuo was no worse than Gu Qinuo, he was worried about Gu Qinuo Carelessness will suffer.
Seeing Ye Hanjiang lying on the ground, surrounded by blood, Ye Qiu rushed up: "Xiao Jiu!"
Ye Hanjiang waved his hand: "I'm fine."
With his support, he stood up, pointed to the corner of the street and said to Zhang Li, "Arnuo went after that killer."
Zhang Liting didn't stop, and left a sentence that I know, and before leaving, he threw down a firework stick: "Contact me if I have something to do."
A gust of wind passed by the two of them.
Ye Qiu hurriedly took out the medicine from his backpack and wanted to give it to Ye Hanjiang, but Ye Hanjiang refused: "Stop the bleeding first, and we'll talk about the rest when we go back."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu simply wrapped up the wound with a bandage.
In less than 5 minutes, Zhang Li came back like a gust of wind. Facing Ye Hanjiang's questioning eyes, he shook his head: "I didn't find it."
Ye Hanjiang's injury could not be dragged on any longer, so Ye Qiu and Zhang Li helped him back to the apartment. Liu Yingxue and others who were opposite heard the movement and ran out to check the situation.
Zhang Li quickly cleared the table, and Ye Hanjiang lay down on Ye Qiu's support. When the bandage was removed and the wound was clearly seen, the remaining two gasped involuntarily.
Ye Hanjiang's entire shoulder blade was cut in half with a single knife, and the wound was cracked into a big V shape. Bobo's blood spilled out like running water, and the chopped bones and scum were mixed in the flesh and blood, which looked horrifying.
Probably due to excessive blood loss, Ye Hanjiang's complexion looked extremely pale, there was no trace of blood on his lips, just looking at his appearance, he was no different from a dead person.
Ye Hanjiang shook his head, slightly dispelling the dizziness caused by blood loss, and said to Ye Qiu as quickly as possible: "Third brother, listen to me, I can't hold on anymore, you remember to wash the wound with alcohol first , and then use surgical forceps to remove the bone residue, blood clots, and necrotic tissue in the wound, and then rinse the inside of the wound with hydrogen peroxide, and finally apply iodophor to bandage the wound.”
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and large drops of sweat dripped down his cheeks onto the table. When the alcohol splashed on his shoulders, Ye Hanjiang's eyes widened in an instant. He clenched his fists and yelled. fainted.
Ye Qiu used gauze to quickly remove the blood on the surface of the wound, but when it came to debridement, he couldn't do it any longer. Those bone residues were scattered in Ye Hanjiang's wound. In the wound, it took a long time to pinch a bone residue.
Zhang Li couldn't help urging: "Can you hurry up? If you drag it on, Xiao Jiu won't be hacked to death by that bastard, he will lose too much blood and die first."
Ye Qiuhong gritted his teeth and said, "You speak lightly, if you have the ability, come here!"
The person who was told waved his hands again and again in fright: "No, no, I'm dizzy."
"Let me do it!"
A female voice came from the door, and the two turned their heads, only to see Lu Yanping walking in from the door, she took the surgical forceps from Ye Qiu's hand and said, "Let's leave professional matters like surgery to the doctor!"
Ye Qiu gave up his position, stepped aside with relief and began to fight. As soon as Lu Yanping came, the progress was much faster, probably because she was used to this kind of scene all the year round, and the bloody wound didn't affect her speed. Cleaning, debridement, disinfection, and bandaging are done in one go.
After applying the medicine, she used wooden boards as anchors, folded the bandage into a dovetail shape, and carefully bandaged the wound. After tying the last surgical knot, Lu Yanping took off the mask and wiped the sweat from her forehead. Ye Qiu and the two said, "Okay."
She warned: "Try not to let him do too much exercise. The conditions are limited now. I just bandaged the wound. His left shoulder may not be able to move. Remember to pay more attention."
After explaining everything, Lu Yanping turned around and walked towards the door with her pockets in her pockets. Ye Qiu and the two of them sent her out like the God of Wealth. When they turned to look at the dining table, Ye Hanjiang had already opened his eyes.
The two hurriedly helped him up and moved him to the sofa. Ye Qiu brought a cup of salt water and sugar water to his mouth: "Drink some! Doctor Lu said that you have lost a lot of blood, drinking this can replace normal saline."
Ye Hanjiang drank three cups with his hand, and when he was about to pour the fourth cup, Ye Hanjiang waved his hand to indicate that he really couldn't drink anymore.
Just when Ye Qiu was still trying to persuade, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, Zhang Li opened the door, only to see Gu Qinuo standing at the door covered in blood.
He looked fixedly at Ye Hanjiang in the house, saw that although the man was pale, but his spirit seemed to be fine, he immediately felt relieved, and staggered across the threshold.
As soon as Gu Qinuo entered the door, Ye Hanjiang realized something was wrong. Compared with before, he was breathing very heavily at this time, and judging from the blood stains all over his body and the tears in his clothes, it was obvious that he had just gone through a fierce battle.
Ye Hanjiang leaned on the sofa and worried: "How are you?"
Gu Qinuo coughed, shook his head and said, "It's okay..."
He coughed a few more times while speaking, and he quickly covered his lips, but Ye Hanjiang could clearly see that a strand of blood seeped out from between his fingers.
Such a situation made Ye Hanjiang's heart skip a beat. Gu Qinuo's current situation may have injured his internal organs. In case of hemorrhage, Hua Tuo might not be able to save him even if he was alive.
Seemingly aware of Ye Hanjiang's worry, Gu Qinuo walked up to him and knelt down, raised his hand to caress the back of his head, and said softly, "Don't worry, it's just a small injury."
Zhang Li couldn't help complaining: "Gu Dumber, I know you're nervous about the male god, but don't be so reckless, right? If that bastard took the opportunity to sneak up on you just now, then we might all die here."
When Zhang Li mentioned the killer, a trace of disgust flashed in Gu Qinuo's eyes, and he replied coldly: "No one can hurt Xiao Jiu, including myself."
Ye Qiu was surprised, Ye Hanjiang was a little embarrassed, as for Zhang Li, he rolled his eyes at Gu Qinuo, and said in his heart: He was so quick to express his sincerity, why did he become so quick when he confessed his love? dumb?
At this moment, a person rushed in from the door and shouted, "Quick...quick...Professor Lin...kill...Professor Lin..."
The four of them took a closer look, and saw Lu Yanping standing at the gate covered in blood, repeating the previous words with horror on her face.
Ye Hanjiang had a bad premonition in his heart, and he softly comforted him: "Talk slowly, what's wrong with Professor Lin?"
Probably infected by his calm expression, Lu Yanping's nervousness eased a little. She swallowed her saliva and said in a frightened voice, "Professor Lin is dead!"
"What?" Ye Qiu stood up in shock. Ye Hanjiang had just said in the afternoon that Professor Lin might be the one who died, but he didn't expect it to come true so soon.
Ye Hanjiang signaled Ye Qiu to help him up, and said to Lu Yanping, "Take us over there to have a look."
Lv Yanping turned around in a panic and ran towards the opposite apartment, Ye Hanjiang and the others followed her out of the gate.
When the five people came to the bathroom on the second floor, Liu Yingxue was standing at the door. When she saw Ye Hanjiang's questioning eyes, she shook her head sadly and said, "He's already dead."
Ye Hanjiang was startled, and hurried forward to check, only to see Professor Lin lying on his back on the floor of the bathroom with his eyes wide open, his mouth and nose were blocked with a towel, a fruit knife was inserted into his chest, blood ran down the floor Flowed out of the bathroom door.
"When did you find out?" Gu Qinuo asked at the end.
"5 minutes ago." Liu Yingxue replied: "He was on the next shift, about 7 minutes ago he suddenly appeared in the lobby on the first floor, and told me that he had something to go across to you, and asked me to go upstairs to accompany Yanping. "
Lu Yanping interjected: "I came back from your place and felt sweaty and uncomfortable, so I wanted to come up and change clothes. It happened that Professor Lin was going to the toilet, so we came up together together."
"Yingxue came up to tell me that Professor Lin was out, but 10 minutes ago I saw him enter the room with my own eyes, and told me that he had eaten something wrong for dinner and had diarrhea. If Yingxue came up to him, let me tell Yingxue One sound, and he will go down in a while."
Liu Yingxue said with an ugly face, "We sensed something was wrong and knocked open the door. Then we found bloodstains on the door of the bathroom. When we kicked the door open, we found that Professor Lin had fallen on his back in a pool of blood."
"You just said that Professor Lin went to look for us, did you see him enter our room with your own eyes?" Ye Hanjiang frowned.
Liu Yingxue shook her head: "At that time, my sight was blocked by a big tree. I only heard you open the door and someone spoke."
Ye Hanjiang stroked his chin and said in thought: "It seems that the people behind the scenes deliberately used the cover of the big tree to create this illusion." '
Then he turned around and asked Lu Yanping, "What about you? Did you hear the sound of the professor going out?"
Lu Yanping shook her head: "No, because I was worried about being attacked suddenly, I kept the door of the room ajar. Professor Lin's room is diagonally opposite. If he goes out, I can definitely see him."
Ye Hanjiang thought for a moment, then asked Gu Qinuo another question: "You went after that fake Gu Qinuo before, what happened?"
Gu Qinuo recalled: "At that time we beat him for a while, and after killing him, I chopped off his head. Halfway back, that end suddenly turned into a black shadow and disappeared."
Ye Hanjiang instantly understood what Lu Yanping meant when he said that Professor Lin killed Professor Lin. He said solemnly: "It seems that there are indeed monsters that can change into our appearance at will and attack us."
"What do you mean?" Everyone was puzzled.
Ye Hanjiang pointed to his shoulder and explained: "Someone pretended to be Gu Qinuo and attacked me before, and now Professor Lin died at the hands of someone with the same appearance as him. I think the monster tonight should be free." Change your appearance."
Everyone was shocked and became at a loss.
Ye Hanjiang took the opportunity to suggest: "I suggest that everyone get together first. As long as there are no single people and no chance for monsters to take advantage of it, there should be no problem in getting through today safely."
Although Liu Yingxue had some complaints about this, but with the enemy at hand, she had no choice but to agree to his suggestion, and took Lu Yanping to the corner of the hall to find a seat to sit down.
Ye Hanjiang's gaze swept across the two of them, but his suspicions increased, and he thought to himself: Is it really as I guessed?Otherwise, how to explain that the two of them were not attacked by monsters?
Pretending that Gu Qinuo changed his forward momentum within one-sixteenth of a second, he jumped backwards suddenly. The moment his feet left the ground, a black horizontal knife was nailed to the ground with a "bang" sound. On the floor where he was standing just now, half of the blade hadn't gone in.
