Chapter 16: The First Line of Life and Death

It happened suddenly, and the guests in the restaurant obviously didn't understand what happened. The loud "bang" shocked everyone, and the voice of talking was suddenly cut off, only a few The brave ones probed their brains in the direction of the sound, and at this moment, the restaurant was exceptionally quiet.

Seeing that Mu Li didn't look like a joke, but actually seemed to strangle Duan Wu on the spot, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't have time to talk, they jumped towards Mu Li at the same time.The edge of Bai Yutang's palm was like a knife, and he slashed at Mu Li's neck fiercely. At the same time, his left hand grabbed the vitals and forced her to let go. Even if she didn't let go, the blow of his right hand would have knocked her out.Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to grab her veins. When he lowered his head, Zhan Zhao suddenly saw Mu Li's eyes, and his heart sank suddenly.

It was a pair of eyes that showed strong hatred and killing intent.

The moment Mu Li put her hand on Duan Wu's neck, there was only one thought in her mind: This time, she will never let her go again, even if she dies.

So she didn't care about Bai Yutang's slash at all, even though Bai Yutang's attack was more ruthless, it could cause injury at least, or kill him at worst.But compared to saving the Dragon Boat Festival, Bai Yutang's attack was a moment slower, and this moment was enough for her to break the neck of the woman in front of her.

For Muchen, what is more threatening is Zhan Zhao's right hand that has been put on her wrist. She has learned Zhan Zhao's skill, which seems light but heavy, with needles hidden in the cotton.

Either let go to protect yourself, or die together.

At this moment, the short one is less than a blink of an eye, but it looks like there will never be an end in sight.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Li did something that she hadn't thought of. She raised her right hand fiercely, blocking upwards against the direction Zhan Zhao grabbed, and at the same time, her left hand slashed down on the top of Duan Wu's head with all her strength!

The moment he exerted his strength, Mu Li heard the crisp sound of his right wrist bone breaking, and at the same time, Bai Yutang's hand knife on his neck also slashed hard.

Mu Li finally saw Duan Wu's face distorted by fear before his eyes turned black.

In the silent darkness, Muchen felt like a long, long dream. When she was a child, her father carried her to run in the fields, and the master stroked her head and said with a smile that she was really good. The little uncle took her He got up on the tree and ran away, and jumped down bravely, but was knocked on the stone until his head was bloodied... The last thing flashed was the old and haggard face of the master, who was struggling to smile one moment, and the next second... Turned into white bones... Muchen trembled all over, and opened his eyes suddenly.

The first thing that came into view was Zhan Zhao's face, as if he was too far away to see his expression clearly, Mu Li's eyes were still a little blurry, she turned her head to look around, familiar places, familiar tables and chairs, it turned out that I was still in the restaurant, at that yellow rosewood table.

But he didn't see the Dragon Boat Festival, nor did he see Bai Yutang, and even the guests in the restaurant all left.Mu Li's heart suddenly skipped a beat. If Bai Yutang took Duan Wu away, does that mean that his palm still failed to kill Duan Wu?

It seemed that all the blood rushed into his head at once, and the surrounding sounds, sights, and bloody smell suddenly seemed to be magnified several times. Muchen suddenly sat up, but he opened his mouth and did not make any sound.Muchen was stunned for a moment, and then felt severe pain. The broken right hand hurt like a piercing pain, and her throat felt like a burning pain. She vaguely remembered that when Bai Yutang's palm was cut off, she was twisting around. Blocking Zhan Zhao, that palm seemed to have slashed at his own throat, and it was probably the reason why he woke up so quickly.

Mu Li silently showed a sarcastic smile, and had already seen that there was a faint affection between Bai Yutang and Duan Wu. If it wasn't for Zhan Zhao today, maybe no one would know that he was killed by those two people... The smell of blood filled his mouth, Mu Li looked at Zhan Zhao again, and then he saw clearly that Zhan Zhao bent over and knelt beside her on one knee, fixing her broken right hand with a wooden board, his handsome face showed no expression .

Zhan Zhao's hands were not very gentle, and Muchen was gasping for breath in pain. If it wasn't for the sore throat, he would have yelled out a long time ago.When Zhan Zhao heard the movement, he raised his head and glanced at Mu Li, only one glance, it was so cold that there was no temperature, then he lowered his head immediately.It's just that I don't know if it's the illusion of Muchen, Zhan Zhao's bandaging action seems to be a little lighter.

Muchen took a deep breath, her throat hurt as if someone had cut her open, and even her head ached, her mind was rumbling, and only one sentence echoed: I still couldn't kill her.After a short period of loss and bewilderment, watching Zhan Zhao bandage herself with a blank face, Mu Li felt a huge anger for no reason, and she suddenly hated this person in front of her so much, why is it always him?It was unlucky to meet him in the palace, it was his incapability not to stop Jiang Wenfei, it was his fault to stop her with such a heavy hand just now, every time it was him, God sent him down to fight against him?Once or twice, try to ruin her business.

Mu Li slammed Zhan Zhao violently, but the result was that the pain was so painful that he almost shed tears. Zhan Zhao looked up at her with complicated eyes, and after a while he said in a deep voice: "Your hand, the condition is not good." That's great, can you feel the pain?"

Her hand was broken, he said it was not easy to say, let it go, and asked her if she could feel the pain, would she be a wooden person?Mu Li choked angrily, but she couldn't speak, and could only stare at him fiercely.I don't know if Zhan Zhao received it. He glanced at her, and when he spoke, his voice softened a little: "You..." After saying a word, he seemed to be at a loss for words. He frowned for a long time, and then slowly spit out six words. In two words, "Your hand is recovering."

Muchen felt that at that moment, her heart stopped beating, and then, the blood all over her body rushed to her face. She looked down at her hand almost in a panic, the wrist bone had been fixed with a splint, She didn't care to pull the bandage, and she burst into tears as soon as she pulled it. She didn't care, wiped her tears, and stretched out her hand to pull it again.

Zhan Zhao didn't expect Mu Li to have such a reaction, sighed silently at the side, pulled Mu Li's hand away, and took off the bandages that were still tied in circles.

The exposed wrist was red, swollen, and bruised, but Muchen could tell at a glance that the broken bone had been connected, and it was already healing.

As if all the strength had been taken off her body, Mu Li couldn't sit still all of a sudden, and she didn't care that Zhan Zhao was still at the side, she leaned back and fell backwards, and then with a "dang", her head hit the leg of the pear wood table .This hit made the Venus pop out of Mu Li's eyes, but she didn't feel any pain, she slid down the table legs, and when she lay on her back on the ground, she felt a sudden jump in the back of her head.Just now Zhan Zhao asked her if she could feel pain, but now she can answer, she feels pain, her head hurts, and her heart hurts even more.

Zhan Zhao opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. Mu Li's reaction exceeded his expectations from the very beginning, and his surprise was even greater than seeing Mu Li attack Duan Wu.From Li Shousi's case to Mu Li, Zhan Zhao felt that this girl was by no means as simple as she appeared on the surface. Later, when he saw her with Jiang Wenfei, he had a vague feeling that perhaps he could observe from the relationship between Jiang Wenfei and her, that there was nothing wrong with her. Thinking of Jiang Wenfei's suicide and Bai Guang's departure from Beijing, he hasn't heard from Muli for a long time.Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao suddenly smiled. He had always wanted to know more about the girl in front of him, but he didn't expect that in just one day today, he couldn't digest the amount of news, and he didn't know whether it was good news or bad news.

However, what is certain is that for this girl named Muli, she must not let her guard down easily.

Just looking at Mu Li lying on the ground with no expression on his face, Zhan Zhao suddenly felt a little soft-hearted. He sighed secretly, picked up the wooden plank that had fallen to the side, took out a new bandage and wrapped it up for her.

Mu Li quietly watched Zhan Zhao lower his head and bandage her. This scene seemed inexplicably familiar. When was the last time Zhan Zhao bandaged her like this?An hour ago?Or two hours?On the same day, the same thing, the mood is completely different.It feels like a lifetime has passed.

Muchen's eyes were a little sore, and the feeling of exhaustion where all her strength and hatred had been burned away made her suddenly very homesick. How long had she not experienced the kind of life where someone protects someone and takes care of her?It didn't seem long before Master's chubby smiling face seemed to be still in front of him, he sat lazily on the rattan rocking chair, and said with a smile: "Ah Li, go cook for Master."

If possible, as long as she has it, she is willing to take it all out, as long as the master can ask her to cook again.It's a pity that there are some things, if you can't go back, you can't go back. It's useless to shed tears, and it's useless to shed blood. No matter how much you struggle and cry, you can only hear the ridicule of God.

Muqian closed her eyes, deliberately let her mind go blank, and didn't think about anything.The deliberate emptiness seems to have worked, and the pain in the body began to become clear. This pain overwhelmed all other feelings. At this time, she couldn't wish for it.

No wonder people say that stupid people are blessed with stupidity, but it turns out that being empty in your mind is also a blessing.

It's a pity that after being free for a while, Zhan Zhao mercilessly pulled her out of the crowd of fools, and said, "It's bandaged, how does your throat feel?"

Mu Li opened her eyes, she took a deep breath, her throat should have almost recovered, but she still shook her head, bared her teeth showing a painful expression, and looked up at Zhan Zhao.

There was no expression on Zhan Zhao's face, his eyes stayed on Mu Li's face for a while, and he seemed to be smiling, and he said lightly: "Since the throat still hurts, I just go back to Kaifeng Mansion with me, and let Mr. Gongsun show you look."

Wood Quinoa: "..."

************************************************** ***************

It wasn't the first time for Kaifeng mansion to enter, but it was the first time to walk through the main entrance, and it was also the first time to follow Zhan Zhao with his arms hanging and covered in dirt and blood into Kaifeng mansion.

It's a shame to throw it at his grandma's house.

If possible, Muli would rather dig a hole and go down into the ground, but no matter how deep she drilled, Zhan Zhao would probably be able to dig her out, so he could only resent it.On the way here, Muli has been secretly thinking in his heart, is he going to see Bao Zheng?Is Duan Wu alive or dead?If she died, Bao Heizi would have to ask her to pay for her life, right?With Zhan Zhao by her side, if she wanted to run away, shouldn't she tell everything?Mu Li even had a faint expectation in her heart, that Zhan Zhao would help her if she didn't know how to do it.If Duan Wu didn't die... then he had to kill him again.

After thinking it over, Muli felt very calm. She felt that if she could see Lao Bao so calmly, she might even be able to go to Kaifeng mansion more calmly to lay a prison on the ground floor. Anyway, this is not the first time she has entered ...It's a pity that things backfired. As soon as Mu Li took the first step, he couldn't calm down.

The courtyard of Kaifeng Mansion is very large, Mu Li just turned her face inadvertently, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the person standing at the door of the room on the left, that is...Little Martial Uncle.

After seeing off Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao in front of the Pang Mansion, Pang Tong sorted out the ins and outs of the matter carefully. He already had three points in his heart about this so-called long-lost sister.As for how to solve this matter, Pang Tong decided that he had to go and see the girl himself.

However, he was not busy for a while, before seeing the Dragon Boat Festival, Pang Tong first went to Kaifeng Mansion, first to hand over some official documents that his father had handed over to Bao Zheng, and second, to ask about some private matters.

Bao Zheng has always admired Pang Tong, and the two of them talked quite happily, and when everything was in order, Pang Tong had just left the house when he bumped into Bai Yutang who was rushing towards him.

Although Muchen's palm didn't kill Duan Wu, it was not much worse.In a hurry, Bai Yutang rarely lost his usual demeanor, grabbed Zhao Hu who was passing by, and immediately asked where Mr. Gongsun was. After asking clearly, he left the confused Zhao Hu and went straight to Gongsun Ce. room to go.

Pang Tong watched these scenes in his eyes, pondered for a while, and then followed.After entering Gongsun Ce's room, Pang Tong saw Duan Wu, a thin and small girl, probably only in her teens, but her eyes were closed tightly, and her breath was faint, obviously injured.

It turned out that Mu Li's palm was hitting Duan Wu's head. Although his left hand was weak after all, and because of the sudden change of his move, he couldn't use his full strength, but Duan Wu was still knocked unconscious by this palm.Although Bai Yutang is skilled in martial arts, he doesn't know how to use medicine and stones. Seeing that Gongsun Ce's brows are getting tighter and tighter, he wants to ask questions but is afraid of disturbing Gongsun Ce's diagnosis and treatment.

I don't know how long it took before Gongsun Ce raised his head, let out a long sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice while wiping his hands with a handkerchief: "I've saved her life for the time being, but it's hard to say how severe her head injury is." , let’s see if he can wake up in the next few days, if he can wake up, he should be saved.”

The anxious look on Bai Yutang's face remained undiminished, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Then... what if I can't wake up?"

Gongsun Ce pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, maybe I can recover slowly."

In other words, maybe never wake up?Bai Yutang looked at Duan Wu, who was lying unconscious on the bed. When he thought that this teenage girl might lie on the bed like this for the rest of his life, he couldn't help feeling angry, every word came out from between his teeth. : "With such a heavy hand with a child, such a vicious heart, if I make you feel better, my surname will not be Bai!"

Pang Tong stayed silent all the time, and only then did he ask: "Who made it like this..." When he was speaking, his eyes glanced out inadvertently, his voice suddenly stopped, and he stood where he looked. He was so familiar with that person that Pang Tong suddenly forgot where he was, and the sounds around him suddenly became far away. In the feeling, this moment seemed to be infinitely elongated. In the layers of silence, Pang Tong heard that he was almost Shocked whispers:

"A quinoa?"

The author has something to say: Pang Tong: A quinoa?

Wood Chenopodium: ...

Pang Tong: Ah Li, why are you here?

Wood Chenopodium: ...

Pang Tong: Are you injured?Who hit you?

Wood Chenopodium: ...

Pang Tong: Don't be afraid, tell me and I will pay you back ten times.

Muchen: ...Director!You still let people play dumb?Can you still let me be a quiet and beautiful woman?

Pang Tong: ...

Zhan Zhao: ...
