==============================

I am here, where?

Su Hongyu slowly opened his eyes.The familiar bed curtain came into view.

This is Hengjiao's own room.

I'm back?what happen?

Su Hongyu lay straight on the bed, his eyes were empty, trying to dig out something useful from his memory.

Rescue... fight... coma...

Bringing Yi Yuan was originally to help the wounded, but in the end it was used on himself.Did he cause trouble for Ling Zhi again?

Su Hongyu felt that his eyes were dry and uncomfortable, so he had to close them again, and raised his right hand to cover his eyes.

Vision is blocked and hearing becomes more sensitive.

"You're awake, Hongyu."

With a sad "squeak" the door was pushed open, and the gentle voice of the old man came.

Su Hongyu turned his head to look, Yi Yuan was looking over here with his medicine box on his back.

"Yi, Bo." His throat was dry, and there was a cough when his vocal cords vibrated, "Ahem, cough, what's wrong with me?" He was about to sit up.

Yi Yuan walked to the bed in two or three steps, before he even put the medicine box away, he reached out and pressed Su Hongyu's shoulder: "Don't get up. You have been poisoned and need to be taken care of."

Poisoning?

"How long have I been lying down?"

"It's been half a month." Yi Yuan took out a small pillow for pulse diagnosis from the medicine box and put it on the edge of the bed.

Su Hongyu consciously stretched out his left hand and placed it on the small pillow: "Where's Ling Zhi? Is he all right?"

Yi Yuan thought back on Jing Lingzhi's tough and decisive actions during this period, it seemed that there was no difference from before, except that he was too desperate, kept his eyes open for several days and nights, was finally pushed away by Ying Yi to rest, and always Standing alone in front of Su Qi's tombstone, I don't know what to think.

He clapped his hands and started rambling: "Every time you wake up, Ling Zhi is the first one to ask you. You should worry more about yourself. The poison this time is dangerous. Even with my medical skills, I can't use it." It took more than ten days to get rid of it reluctantly. The residual poison will be recuperated slowly. Fortunately, you have deep internal strength, so you don’t need to worry too much.”

Su Hongyu was not taken in, and a series of bad thoughts flashed through his mind uncontrollably. He frowned and asked, "What happened to Ling Zhi?"

Yi Yuan didn't rush to answer, first he checked the pulse slowly: "He's recovering well." Meeting Su Hongyu's dark eyes, knowing that he couldn't hide it, he simply kept it secret: "Ling Zhi is fine, Su Qi is dead."

Su Qi?

died?

How can it be?

Su Hongyu's eyes widened, and he looked at Yi Yuan carefully. After a while, he confirmed that the other party did not lie to him.There was a huge wave in his heart, and he sat up suddenly, and he couldn't wait for the dizziness in his mind to fade away, so he threw off the quilt and wanted to get out of bed.

How important Su Qi is to Jing Lingzhi is clear to Su Hongyu who puts Jing Lingzhi on top of his heart.When the two get along, Jing Lingzhi doesn't often mention Su Qi, but there are some things that can be understood without words.

Just look around and you will know that Su Qi is Jing Lingzhi's master, father, guide in life, and most trusted partner.The two of them may have become accustomed to it, but only Su Hongyu, who is an outsider, can clearly see how similar the two are in their trivial habits and actions.

Yi Yuan hurriedly stopped him: "Why are you going?" He knew the answer without asking.

"I, I'll go find Ling Zhi."

really.

Yi Yuan persuaded: "It's been more than ten days. You are in a hurry to see him now, but it won't help. Besides, your body hasn't recovered yet."

It was just a hothead, but after being persuaded by Yi Yuan, Su Hongyu no longer persisted.If you don't know the cause and effect, just rushing through it like this may make things worse.

"Yi Bo, tell me what happened during this period."

"Alright."

........................

After sending Yi Yuan away, Su Hongyu followed the shadow guard's guidance and found Jing Lingzhi in a cemetery.

From a distance, he saw a black figure with his back facing him among the stone tombstones, kneeling there quietly, still wearing the usual black tights, with a high ponytail and straight shoulders.The solemnity prevented him from approaching, and he could only watch from a distance.

He already knew the cause of Su Qi's death.After killing Tian Wu, he was besieged by the shadow guards of the Donghua faction until he died in battle.With Su Qi involved, the shadow guards who went together would not be wiped out.

This time, even Su Qi's body was trapped in the enemy camp and could not be brought back.

There was only an empty coffin under the tombstone, and a few black clothes belonging to Su Qi were placed, and it was buried quietly like this.

For the shadow guard, this is the norm, and it is really rare to find a complete body like the former shadow two.

For Su Qi, this may be a good ending, but for those who are alive, this is a wound that is destined to be irreparable.No matter how difficult it is, they can only bear the pain of losing their relatives and friends, grit their teeth and move forward.

The world is used to mourning the dead in white. In order to conceal their whereabouts, the shadow guard can only tie a strip of black cloth, which is integrated with the black clothes-even the pain must be hidden, for fear of being discovered.

Su Hongyu's eyes were sharp, so he could naturally see the cloth strip tied tightly around Jing Lingzhi's right arm.

If you really think about it, Su Qi's death also had his help... If he hadn't deceived Jing Lingzhi, then Jing Lingzhi would not have insisted on taking the risk.If he didn't take Su Qi to rescue, then Su Qi would not be able to cross hundreds of miles to Wangjia Village overnight after she became angry after knowing the truth, right?

So, no matter what, the steps towards Jing Lingzhi could not be taken.

Su Hongyu just hid behind the tree, watching the blackness from a distance.

Unexpectedly, Jing Lingzhi suddenly drew his sword, and his kneeling posture changed into a half-kneeling posture that was easier to use as his master turned around.His gaze was like a torch, pointing directly at the big tree where Su Hongyu was hiding, and said in a low voice: "Who?"

There was no point in hiding any longer, Su Hongyu slowly walked out of the shadows and showed his figure.

This was obviously beyond Jing Lingzhi's expectation.Without much hesitation, he reversed the edge of his sword, retracted the dagger into its scabbard, unloaded his body, knelt on the ground on one knee, bowed his head and saluted: "This subordinate has seen the master."

Su Hongyu walked to Jing Lingzhi's side step by step.

After not seeing him for a while, Jing Lingzhi felt much lighter again.As a martial arts practitioner, the body is already well-proportioned and slender, any more will make you cumbersome, and any less will make you look thinner.Jing Lingzhi lost more than one point?His face was pale, his cheeks were sunken, his cheekbones were slightly protruding, and there were faint dark circles under his eyes. He was extremely haggard.Only those eyes are still firm, powerful, and piercing, making people forget his fragility, and only remember that indestructible figure like a mountain.

But Lingzhi is also a person of flesh and blood.He lost Su Qi, the leader was in a coma, the pavilion leader "disappeared", the Hengjiao group had no leader, and there was no delay in arresting him, all of these turned into heavy pressure, relentlessly pressing on Jing Lingzhi It can even be called a thin body...

What he saw and heard made Su Hongyu clearly realize that Ling Zhi was not doing well during this time.

Thinking of the purpose of his trip, Su Hongyu turned his head and didn't dare to look at this person again, his gaze inadvertently fell on the stone tablet beside him.

The square stone tablet is made of the same stone as the pavement of the square on the top of the mountain. Two large square characters are engraved on it vertically, Su Qi, and a row of characters recording the year and month are written horizontally under the name. From the beginning of entering the Shadow Guard camp at the beginning of the seventh day until his death.Nothing else.

Su Hongyu squatted down, and according to the habits of the original world, he placed the white bouquet in his hand in front of Su Qi's tomb.

Jing Lingzhi didn't know when he knelt down in front of the stele again, quietly watching his master's movements.

Su Hongyu pretended not to know, just stared at the two characters horizontally and vertically for a long time, and suddenly asked: "When I was in the small woods, how did that little boss know my secret?"

"He doesn't know." Jing Lingzhi replied, "Yan Fei asked people from the Donghua faction to investigate Wangjia Village before, and he knew that there was a rumor that a person was possessed by an evil spirit there. Pull you into the water."

Both of them were silent.

Just such a small leader, arrogant and arrogant, completely disturbed the muddy waters of Hengjiao, and almost caused Su Qi and Jing Lingzhi to face each other...

One question answered, and another.Su Hongyu continued to ask: "The boy in Wangjia Village, why did you save him?"

Jing Lingzhi was stunned for a moment, his eyes flickered, and his eyes fell back on the stone tablet: "Master... If he dies, the master will be sad." He still remembers the way the master saw Zhang San for the first time.People who grow up in peacetime will always have a softer heart, especially when facing children or the elderly.So when facing that boy, he actually moved the most unacceptable feeling of compassion for a shadow guard: "It's just a matter of convenience, and it won't affect the task." Late.

"It's... so it is." Su Hongyu's heart moved, he glanced at Jing Lingzhi who was beside him, and quickly looked back at the stone tablet, "I...that child is very smart, and he will not be confused when he is in danger. Given time, his achievements will not be inferior to Yingyi. If his talent in martial arts is acceptable, let him follow you."

"The subordinates are at the command of the master." Jing Ling paused, and continued, "The subordinates have transferred the painting and calligraphy to the Hengjiao sub-altar, and all the affairs around the master will be temporarily taken care of by Chunhua."

"Why..." Su Hongyu had just asked the beginning, but he wanted to understand that it was his secret that was exposed.

Silence enveloped the small world again.

Su Hongyu still hadn't forgotten his purpose, and he was so anxious that he fixed his eyes on the stone tablet, made up his mind again and again, and his cuffs were crumpled by him.

Going on like this is not an option.A lie needs countless lies to fulfill.This time, Jing Lingzhi put himself at risk.

If he doesn't say it now, what price will he pay for it next time?

After taking another breath, Su Hongyu said suddenly: "Ling Zhi, I have something to tell you."

Jing Lingzhi's figure was as motionless as a mountain, and his hands resting on his knees were suddenly clenched.

Su Hongyu was so excited that he didn't notice the change in Jing Lingzhi. He just wanted to pour out all the words accumulated in his heart: "The first thing I said about going back was to lie to you, in order to survive. I'm sorry, Lingzhi In short, I don't know if I can go back, and I don't know if your master can come back."

Su Hongyu took a deep breath and continued: "It's my fault for lying to you, and Su Qi was even implicated for this. I am willing to make compensation for what I have done. I know it is useless to say these things now... If you don't want to See me, I will never take half a step out of the small building in the mountain. If you want to kill me... I just beg you, do it quickly."

Jing Lingzhi turned his head and met Su Hongyu's calm eyes.

The author has something to say:

Belated Dragon Boat Festival blessings, I wish you all a happy Dragon Boat Festival.

The writing is not good, I don’t know if this chapter has written the kind of feeling of loneliness between two people who are facing each other but are speechless (T_T)

(Yes, it is the author who wants colorful black)
