The blood was thick and thick, and it seemed that there was a stone stuck in the chest, making it hard to breathe.The narrow and confinement wooden house is like a coffin, locking the surroundings lifelessly.
There is no light in the room, it is dark and damp, there is almost no decoration on the table, as if afraid of being discovered by someone, everything is arranged carefully and inconspicuously.Only the thin light coming in from the east window made Shao Mobai feel that there was still a glimmer of life.
The slanted sunlight moved gradually, his eyes turned with the stream of light, and gradually cast them on the nail on the wall.His eyes move, he chuckles—it's time.
Sure enough, the next moment, a man dressed as a servant pushed the door open and entered.He was carrying an ebony tray with medicines on it.He was very cautious, and immediately closed the door when he came in, then walked respectfully and stopped beside the sick bed, bowed his back, and said softly:
"Leader Shao, take your medicine."
It's been ten days. It's been ten days since Shao Mabai was hunted down by his enemies, and he was seriously injured and fainted before waking up.
During this period, only this nameless servant came in and out to serve him, taking care of everything.
"Don't call me the lord."
He tried to get up by himself, but he touched the wound on his chest, and the unhealed wound rubbed against the gauze, causing him to gasp in pain.
The word "Leader" pierced into his heart, immediately piercing two holes.A month ago, he could enjoy this title majestically, standing at the top of the martial arts arena, and being worshiped by thousands of people on top of a hundred stone steps.
Who would have thought that he, a "hero" who came from a well-known and upright family, the "leader" who attracted thousands of people's attention, would end up betraying his relatives in the end.In one day, he experienced all kinds of betrayals and saw through people's hearts. Those who wanted to kill him spread all over the martial arts world, and some even set up an uprising and stirred up the entire sect in order to eradicate his "martial arts cancer".
For thousands of years, the leader of the alliance has only had two "tumors".
One is the Wujian Eagle King 200 years ago, who killed his father and brother, monopolized his wife, and took the heart of a child to practice evil skills, doing all kinds of evil things.The martial arts people revolted several times, but they were all defeated by evil forces. It was not until the Wujian Eagle King became mad that all the heroes revolted one after another and eradicated the evil.
And another cancer is Shao Mobai.
He has never done anything that endangers martial arts, and he thinks he is worthy of "Xia" and "righteousness", but he has ulterior motives and the world is cold.
He was the leader who lived the same life as the world a month ago, but now he was brutally framed by a traitor, but he was a precarious bereaved dog.To linger until now, life is worse than death.
These self-proclaimed chivalrous and decent sects did not see any evidence, only relying on the villain's one-sided words and some rumors, they had the fighting spirit of a united army, and they attacked him one after another.
The young man kept his bowed posture and looked at the ground respectfully, "If you don't like it, the villain may call you 'Young Master' in private."
Shao Mobai thought it was good, "Yes."
But the boy's next words made his heart feel heavy again:
"But the young master is always the leader of the alliance, and this is worthless. The villain believes that there will always be a day when the clouds and mists will be cleared and the grievances will be cleared."
"Is it......"
Shao Mobai raised his eyes, his eyes were a little sad, as if he couldn't see the bird's foothold in the vast sea, "I moved the whole martial arts forest just to kill one person, do you think I have the power to fight back?"
The young man was silent for a long time, and only said: "There is no endless road in the sky, and there is no endless sea in the earth. The villain believes that the young master will make a comeback in the future. But only with a body can you establish a career. At present, please take care of your eyes, first Take your medicine."
After saying that, he pushed the medicine bowl in his hand a little bit, and lifted it to Shao Mengbai's chest.
In the past, Shao Mabai drank it without saying anything, but today, he did not take the medicine for a long time.
"Sir?"
The boy looked up suspiciously.
Shao Zhengbai's eyes were clear, he looked at him fixedly, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, "How is the situation outside? Who is your master? Why did you save me?"
He pondered in his mind for ten days, but still had no answer.
Is it the court?Impossible, the emperor has always sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight, never intervening in martial arts affairs, not to mention that he, Shao Mobai, has no acquaintance in the court.
Or which sect in the arena?No, firstly, the martial arts are coming out in full force, and no sect has ever heard of any objection. Second, even if someone intends to object, it is absolutely impossible to be an enemy of the martial arts.
Could it be... is it Pingjiao?
Shao Mobai was taken aback by this thought, wishing he could slap himself.
Pingjiao is the "Demon Cult" in the outside world. It has been passed down for hundreds of years, and generations and martial arts have always been incompatible.What's more, he broke up with the leader of the Demon Cult back then, and the other party hated him long ago.If he hadn't escaped this catastrophe, one day the dead body would be thrown into the wilderness, and if the other party didn't catch up with the slaughtered body, he must be the one who crushed him, how could he save him?
There is no answer to this question, and it has been entangled in Shao Mobai's heart, twisting him like a fire.
After hearing this question, the servant did not dare to look at him, but lowered his head again, "The villain is only responsible for taking care of your injuries, and I can't say anything else, please forgive me, my lord."
"Can't or don't you dare? Why didn't your master save me but didn't show up, and what's the purpose of hiding me all the time?"
Shao Mobai took a deep breath and planned to continue asking, but unexpectedly, the cold air invaded his lungs, triggering a violent cough, the wound on his chest collapsed completely, and blood gushed out.
Seeing this, the boy hurriedly put down the medicine bowl to help him clean up and bandage him.
In an instant, the bedding was also stained with scarlet.
He was a life that was recovered, and there were nearly a hundred wounds, large and small, on his body. Even if all of them healed, he would definitely be half crippled.The heart-piercing cough sounded like summer thunder, resounding thousands of times in the small wooden house.
After a while, he didn't even have the strength to sit up, and he just slumped on the sickbed, looking at the roof with vacant eyes, as if there was an exit there that could save him from the dark prison.
"I'm just asking for the truth now. Whoever hurt me and who saved me, when they go to the underworld to settle their grievances, they will have their grievances and their debts."
The young servant was sympathetic in his heart, and comforted him: "Those who harmed the young master will personally experience the retribution. Even if they don't repay in this life, they will repay in the next life. God has eyes and will settle the matter clearly. You don't need to think too much about it."
Shao Mubai thought of something, and laughed all of a sudden, "I am like this, maybe it is also retribution and reincarnation."
Shao Mobai said in a low hoarse voice: "I have betrayed him for so many years...he has turned his heart to me, but I have listened to the villain's slander and misunderstood him. The last hands that pushed him into the abyss were me, now Retribution is not good, and it is also me. This is all as it should be..."
The boy saw that his heart was ashamed, as if he had been kept in the dark for many years before he finally solved the deception, he hated and regretted it in his heart.
So I couldn't bear it, and revealed a little bit: "Young Master, I really don't dare to say too much because of my humble status. If you have anything to say...you should just ask the leader directly."
The word "religious master" pierced Shao Mobai's ears, his eyes suddenly became focused, and he fixedly looked at the boy.
"You mean the leader? You said the person who saved me was, yes..."
He didn't call out the name, the three words that took root in his heart, intertwined with his too much guilt——
There is no trace.
Demon leader.
He misunderstood the people all his life.
In the past, when Duan Wuji mentioned his name, he would always say something along with it: "The wind passes without trace, and the person passes without trace. This is what my father meant, and it's also what I mean."
Duan Wuji is such a person who has no traces and no worries. What he does and says, he always obeys his own will.Cold and cold, without blood.
Even later, he fixedly looked at himself and said:
"Shao Mobai, I walked around this floating world, and the only trace is you."
At that time, Shao Zhengbai didn't care, he just thought he was lying.
After listening to the boy's words, he took a long time to suppress his surging mood.After a long while, he raised his eyes, looked at the timid young man, raised some strength, and asked embarrassingly:
"Since it's him, why don't you dare to say it? Although he has a cold temper, he will not anger innocent people. Besides, you are kind to me. Even if he asks me in the future, I will not reveal you."
The servant just shook his head, with sorrow in his eyes, and said, "Since the hierarch has been paralyzed, his mood has been uncertain, as if he has changed. This...Young master, you should know it best."
Memories came to my mind in an instant, Shao Mobai's eyes were stained with shame, and he lowered his pupils, "I caused him."
The servant took a step forward, "Young Master, since you care about the leader, please calm down when you see him again in the future, and don't say those things that hurt him again. After all these years, he—"
He was about to say something more, but was interrupted by a cold voice outside the window:
"—Yi Zhu, step back."
His voice is cold, without ups and downs, without rush or slowness, like a snowflake drifting into the downtown area, although it is small in size, it can blow directly into the heart, freezing the blood cold.
The simple four words, apprentice made Shao Mobai's eyes suddenly brighten, he struggled to sit up, and looked at the narrow wooden door——
This voice can only be him!
The servant named Yi Zhu exited with a low eyebrow, and after a while, a man in a wheelchair came in.
He was dressed in blue and white, with a pale lake-colored girdle around his waist. The extremely cold color made his temperament even colder.A pair of eyebrows on the forehead are light, the skin is thin and delicate, the eyes are like a bowl of cold water, there is no emotion but very sharp.Just a casual glance reveals the coldness of snow and frost.
But there is a cinnabar mole at the end of the left eye, red and bright, gathering all the light, burning a hole in the coldness of the whole body, like a little Kongming lantern in the vast dark night, adding a bit of fireworks to this person.
This person who came in was exactly what the two of them were talking about just now, and it was also the person he had been indebted to - Duan Wuji.
The two were relatively silent for a long time, and Duan Wuji finally broke the silence:
"It's good to be able to get up."
He clearly cared about the words, but he said them without warmth, and his tone was not turbulent when he talked about the weather.
Shao Yubai looked at him fixedly, his eyes trembling constantly, this person he had longed for for five years, the person he had dreamed of countless times but became more and more blurred, just like this time quietly stood in front of him.
He thought that time flies and he will never see her again in this life, but he doesn't think there is still a chance.
All of a sudden, thousands of words came to his mind, but he didn't know which one to say first.Shao Mobai looked left and right, his eyes drifted, and finally fell on the bandage on Duan Wuji's wrist, his eyes hurt.
"You, are you hurt?"
A sentence was thrown out without answering, and the room was quiet, only the cold wind blowing through the window.
Shao Mobai paused, restrained his emotions forcibly, slowed down his tone in embarrassment, and asked:
"What's the situation outside? Are people from the martial arts attacking? Once you rescue me from the martial arts, they will never let it go."
Even though Pingjiao is not low in power, it is not an opponent of the entire martial arts world.
Duan Wuji couldn't feel his concern at all, the corners of his mouth moved, "Instead of worrying about Pingjiao, you might as well worry about yourself."
After throwing out this warning, he didn't intend to stay.Buckle the center of the wheel with your left hand, and the left side of the wheelchair will be fixed on the ground. Then hold the other wheel with your right hand and turn it, and the wheelchair will turn around, with its back facing Shao Mengbai, and walk towards the door.
The whole set of movements was done in one go, and it can be seen that the master is very proficient, but this proficiency fell into Shao MObai's eyes, but pierced a piece of flesh in his heart - in the past, Duan Wuji's leg skills were unique in the world, unmatched by anyone.
A mouthful of blood gushed out of his throat, and Shao Mobai swallowed it forcefully:
"No trace!"
Before he left, he called people to stop.
Sure enough, the wheelchair paused and did not move forward.
Shao Mobai's throat kept trembling, and he was at a loss for words, "You saved me regardless of the past...Thank you."
Five years ago, Duan Wuji left Mobao, and personally pulled out the dagger in his body and stabbed it into Shao Mengbai's chest.
At that time, his eyes were full of ice, and he only said one sentence:
"Shao Mobai, you have no conscience."
The memory is like a deep scar dripping with blood, being branded on his heart.Shao Mubai did not forget this scene, and Duan Wuji naturally did not forget it either.
The word "thank you" pierced into the eardrums, piercing his slender eyes, and said slowly:
"Leader Shao is polite. Pingjiao injured a dog yesterday, and I saved it. To me, there is no difference between you."
That's right, Xiao Gong and Xiao Shou came out so early!
There is no light in the room, it is dark and damp, there is almost no decoration on the table, as if afraid of being discovered by someone, everything is arranged carefully and inconspicuously.Only the thin light coming in from the east window made Shao Mobai feel that there was still a glimmer of life.
