Chapter 40 Clues

Su Yu felt that his body was burning and aching from the inside out, as if he had returned to the day when he recognized the Lord, he and other shadow guards knelt on the martial arts arena, let the scorching sun burn, quietly waiting for the fate advent.

"Qiu'er, Seventeen is the number one shadow guard in terms of comprehensive strength this year, so let's choose him for the last spot." At that time, the owner pointed himself to the second young master who chose to accompany the shadow guard.

"Hmph, if my elder brother is still here, you will definitely be selected by him first. Your existence is to remind me that what I get is only what is left of elder brother." Luo Xunqiu looked playfully at the bloody shoulder, who just After completing the task and returning to his life, he put his hand on his shoulder and pressed it down hard. The wound burst, blood gushed out, and the severe pain hit. Su Yu gritted his teeth and endured it. Shadow Guard, apart from loyally protecting the Lord, he shouldn't have any extra emotions, but why did the regret buried deep in his heart faintly ripple.

"So, I hate you." Luo Xunqiu said with contempt in his eyes.

"I will never accept someone who once recognized Xun Qiu as the master, do you understand?" Luo Xunfeng stared at him and said, his eyes were unfathomable.

"I hate you."

"I will never accept you."

"I hate you."

"I will never accept you."

The faces of Luo Xunqiu and Luo Xunfeng appeared alternately in his mind, their words and expressions gradually mixed together.

"I hate you." Luo Xunfeng looked at him contemptuously and said.

No!Don't hate me!Su Yu shouted in his heart, that kind of dull pain far surpassed the wound of the sword.

He frowned, but felt calloused fingers brushing between his brows.

He struggled, but felt a warm hand hold his clenched fist.

"!!!" Su Yu suddenly opened his eyes.

The eyebrows and eyes that came into view overlapped with the nightmare, and the brows were furrowed, full of worries.

Gradually regaining his consciousness, he found that he was back in the courtyard of Shangguan's house, lying on the bed, his forehead was throbbing, and his bones were aching everywhere as if they had been knocked apart.

For a moment, guilt, shame and fear all rushed to his heart. He blinked his eyelashes, not daring to look at Luo Xunfeng, and asked dryly, "Master, are you alright?"

"En." Luo Xun frowned, and quietly put the hand he had just withdrawn behind his back.

He had a panoramic view of Su Yu's reaction, and sure enough... the young man was silently enduring the feeling of humiliation.

I went crazy all night last night, and when I came back to my senses, everything was irreversible.

The always persevering young man was lying on the grass with his eyes closed, and he had lost consciousness. He was covered in cold sweat, his muscles were still twitching unconsciously, and the bruises and mottled all over his body were telling of the brutal treatment he had encountered.

Luo Xunfeng slammed his head with his hands, his chest was filled with annoyance, heartache, and guilt, he hurriedly picked up the young man, wrapped him in his outer robe, and brought him back to Shangguan's courtyard.

The young man lost his usual vigilance, and didn't wake up until Luo Xunfeng helped him clean up his body. A faint sob leaked from his tightly pressed lips, as if he was saying "no, don't".Luo Xunfeng's heart sank again and again, thinking, the shadow that such an encounter might bring to the young man's heart might even outweigh the physical pain.

…………

The young man woke up, asked if he was okay, then pursed his lips into a line, avoiding his eyes again and again.

Luo Xunfeng clenched his hands behind his back, thinking about suitable words.

Before he could open his mouth, he saw the young man's eyes darkened, biting his damaged lower lip, and suddenly propped himself up and was about to sit up.

"Don't move!" Luo Xunfeng hurriedly reached out to support him.

Su Yu froze immediately, and the quilt slipped off his body. He realized that he was wearing a clean middle coat, and he realized that the sticky feeling of sweat all over his body before coma no longer existed. It was the young master... who cleaned up his body , the young master is still so kind to himself...

"What do you want to do? Do you want some water?" Luo Xunfeng had no place to put his hands.

"Master, Su Yu deserves to die, please punish him severely!" The young man's face turned pale, his head almost fell to his chest.

"Ah? Why... ask for punishment?" Luo Xunfeng couldn't understand the young man's words for a moment.

"I disobeyed the young master's order and did something unforgivable to the young master..." Su Yu trembled.

Luo Xunfeng raised his hand to cover his forehead.

Su Yu peeked at Luo Xunfeng's expression, the young master seemed to be inexplicably irritable again, and the young man was nervously waiting for his release.

Luo Xunfeng stood up, stomped two steps back and forth in the room, and finally couldn't help asking, "Why do you think it was you who did something to me, not what I did to you?" He raised his head a little excitedly. Putting your hand down again, "Do you know why I let you go?"

"Because... the young master hates me..." Su Yu could only feel that his internal organs had shifted a bit.

Luo Xunfeng sighed, came to the bed and sat down, looking at the young man's gaze, "No, I just... don't want to ask you out of nowhere, after all, this kind of thing humiliates you..." He said As he spoke, the guilt and pity in his eyes almost overflowed.

Just a few words caused huge waves in Su Yu's heart. Did the young master blame him and explain to him?What virtue and ability do I have to make the young master think of me so much...

"Su Yu... didn't feel humiliated." The young man whispered.

After hearing this, Luo Xunfeng's eyes flickered slightly, "Then last night, you...?"

"Protecting the young master is Su Yu's duty."

"..." Luo Xunfeng's smile froze on his face, "Did you think so last night?"

"Yes, as long as it can help the young master, Su Yu is willing." The young man's ears were a little hot, but he saw a layer of brilliance peeling off Luo Xunfeng's eyes, and he panicked in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Su Yu knows that What you have done disgusts the young master, please punish me severely! If the young master does not want to see Su Yu again, Su Yu will follow you invisibly and never show up..."

I just want to let me follow you...

"Heh..." Luo Xunfeng stood up abruptly, waved his sleeves and said, "You are so willing, how can you annoy me? Don't you always do your duty? You are so dedicated that you never cry or make trouble when you are wronged. You are so good, how can I have any reason to punish you?!"

Luo Xunfeng's sarcasm successfully made Su Yu panic. He still made the young master angry, and he was very angry, but the specific reason made him a little unsure.

He instinctively stood up and was about to kneel down to beg for punishment, but Luo Xunfeng grabbed the skirt of his clothes and pushed him back on the bed.

The soreness in his body and the impact of the bed made him stagnate in pain.Luo Xunfeng stared at him closely, wishing he could pierce him with his gaze.

"Lie down and rest honestly, don't move around." Luo Xunfeng gritted his teeth and said, he helped Su Yu tuck the corner of the quilt tightly, turned and left.

"Master!" Su Yu was shocked, without thinking, he reached out and took Luo Xunfeng's hand.

"What are you doing?" Luo Xunfeng turned around and raised his eyebrows.

"Su Yu knows I'm wrong, please... don't go." The young man wanted to grab Luo Xunfeng tightly like a little beast afraid of being abandoned, but he didn't dare to use his strength.

"You know what's wrong? You don't understand anything at all!"

Seeing the young man's face turned pale in an instant, Luo Xunfeng finally couldn't bear it, he raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, held Su Yu's hand back, and helped him back to the bed again, "I'm just going to buy medicine for you , you have a fever, you know?"

The young man's frightened expression gradually calmed down, and finally nodded hesitantly.

…………

Luo Xunfeng pushed the door out of the house, it was a gloomy morning, thick dark clouds covered the sky, the mountain rain was about to come, the air was so dull, it was like the unknown fire in Luo Xunfeng's heart, stuffed in his chest , no way to vent.

After some inquiring, Luo Xunfeng found a small medicine shop in the village.

"Boss, get me some antipyretics for fever, and bring me some topical medicines for removing blood stasis, stopping bleeding, cooling and relieving pain." Luo Xunfeng said to the boss in the shop.

"Okay, sir, do you want more expensive medicine, or cheaper medicine?"

"Take the most expensive."

After paying the money and taking the medicine, Luo Xunfeng turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the side of the small shop, a piece of red paper was pasted on the wall, with big characters written on it - "Our special offer, Angelica Peach Blossom Wine, tastes sweet, Activating blood and nourishing health".

…………

Luo Xunfeng returned to his residence with the medicine, and just entered the yard when it started to rain lightly.

He saw that the clothes washed yesterday were still blowing in the wind on the shelf in the courtyard. He put the medicine bag in his arms, stepped forward to gather the clothes, and put them away from the shelf.

The top piece in his arms was the black nightwear that was last hung up yesterday. Luo Xunfeng took a casual glance and found that the shoulders of the clothes were clean, and the stains that hadn't been washed off yesterday had been dried all day and night. , disappeared without a trace, he raised the clothes to his eyes and looked at them carefully, feeling really strange.

Before Luo Xunfeng entered the room with his clothes in his arms, he heard the sound of conversation coming from the room.

"Brother Su Yu, where did you go after yesterday? I didn't even find you." It was Ah Rui's voice.

"Why are you looking for us?" Su Yu asked.

"I'm not... afraid that something will happen to you." Ah Rui said.

"...It's all right now."

"really?"

"Fake!" With a loud shout, the door was pushed open with a "bang".

Luo Xunfeng rushed into the room, and saw Su Yu got out of bed, dressed in black, standing upright as usual, talking to Ah Rui in the living room, if it wasn't for the haggard and tired look on his face, no one else would have thought of it He was silently enduring physical discomfort.

"You brat, you dare to come to Su Yu, what did you want to give him to drink yesterday?" Luo Xunfeng threw a pile of clothes in his arms on the table, and waved to hit A Rui.

Ah Rui yelled in fright, the whole room panicked and dodged, Luo Xunfeng was full of unknown anger and had nowhere to turn, so he put all his effort into chasing A Rui with pure force and kicked down a bunch of stools.

"It's not me, it's not me, Brother Su Yu, save me!" Ah Rui yelled.

Su Yu stood in front of Luo Xunfeng, "Master, calm down."

"Get out of the way!" Luo Xunfeng frowned.

Ah Rui took advantage of this gap to get under the table, "Feng Luoxun, you bastard! Brother Su Yu... woo woo..."

Hearing Ah Rui's crying and scolding, the anger in Luo Xunfeng's eyes gradually disappeared. He put away his fists, folded his arms and looked under the table, and asked, "I'll give you a chance to explain, what's going on!"

Ah Rui hesitantly got out of the table, hid behind Su Yu, and repeated Duanmu's diagnosis to Luo Xunfeng yesterday, and Su Yu gave evidence from the side.

"Everything was really just an accident. If I knew it would happen, I would never let you drink that bowl of wine, or compete with you in eating bamboo worms. Now brother Su Yu... woo..." Ah Rui said here, looking He rolled his eyes at Su Yu, and turned his mouth down again.

"..."

"..."

Luo Xunfeng looked at Su Yu, who hastily lowered his head to avoid intertwined eyes, and the atmosphere became awkward and delicate.

"Okay, I got it." Luo Xunfeng frowned and said to A Rui, "Don't publicize this matter, if I find out that you are talking nonsense, be careful that I will beat you black and blue."

"I don't talk nonsense. My sister and brother Duanmu don't talk nonsense. And...brother Duanmu accidentally fell off the cliff last night." The boy's expression became worried.

"What?!" Luo Xunfeng and Su Yu were both surprised.

Ah Rui clutched the hem of his clothes, "I heard from my sister that Brother Duanmu saw me running out to chase you last night, so he was worried, so he followed me out, but we didn't meet. Early this morning, a villager was leaving Baixian Pavilion He was found under a cliff not far away, he seemed to have fallen from a high place, his condition was a little serious, and he is still unconscious."

"How did this happen? Have you found someone to heal him?"

"Brother Duanmu is the best doctor in the village, so... But my sister rushed to see him early in the morning, and my sister is also good at medicine, so I will definitely be able to save Brother Duanmu!"

"Elder Duanmu fell off the cliff, maybe it was not an accident." At this time, Su Yu suddenly said from the side.

"Brother Su Yu, why do you say that?" Ah Rui asked.

"When I was with the young master last night, I faintly heard someone talking, saying something like 'I didn't expect that person to be so ruthless. When he was seen meeting us, he just pushed him down'. One of them even asked The other person said, "Master, do you think tomorrow's event is reliable?" At that time, what he was talking about may be the matter of Elder Duanmu's fall from the cliff."

"Did anyone see the conversation?" Luo Xunfeng asked.

"Su Yu didn't see..." The young man looked at Luo Xunfeng in embarrassment.

"..." Guilt flashed again in Luo Xunfeng's eyes.

"However, I recognize the voice of the man called 'Master'," Su Yu said, "It's Chai Kun!"

"It's Chai Kun again!" Ah Rui clenched his fists. "He still doesn't give up. He still wants to fight against his sister. He must want to get rid of an elder so that he can delay the fate of being forced to abdicate. It's really despicable!"

"I'm afraid it's more than that," Luo Xunfeng said, "From their conversation, someone else did the attack last night. This person is likely to be in collusion with Chai Kun and wants to do something today."

"Oops! They must be trying to mess up my sister's divination!" Ah Rui yelled, "The divination starts at Si time, and it's almost time. Most of the people in the village should be rushing to the back mountain by now!"

Luo Xunfeng squeezed his chin and analyzed, "Chai Kun doesn't want to be divided by the saintess, so what he wants to do is to make your sister submit to him, or drive your sister out of power. Now he is being held accountable by the elders." , the situation is even more unfavorable, and there is an urgent need for a reason to stand up, or to win a favorable alliance."

"Elder Si Nong has always been upright and upright, so he will definitely not be wooed. Brother Duanmu was harmed by them again. Now only the elder secretary can take advantage of him." A Rui said, "Elder secretary is an old-fashioned mother-in-law. I have spoken several times against the new rules for women from inside to marry outside. I remember that at that time, Ziyuan's sister, Danfeng, found a man outside. She was a handsome scholar. Sister Danfeng also tattooed Danfeng's "phoenix" on her arm. They finally passed the test of Chitong. Everyone felt that they were happy, but the elder secretary never blessed them. Thinking about it this way, Chai Kun must have joined forces with the elders! Let's go and expose them!"

"What? You said that Danfeng's husband's family is a respectable scholarly family, and you have her name tattooed on him?" Luo Xunfeng's mind suddenly flashed, something seemingly unimportant, but with contradictory And things start to piece together lines.

"Yeah, when he came to the stockade, he heard that young people here would sometimes tattoo their lover's name on their bodies, so he did it too. Sister Danfeng was touched at that time. After they passed the test, Danfeng My sister came down the mountain with a large dowry."

After Ah Rui finished speaking, he wanted to get a favorable response from Luo Xunfeng and Su Yu, but found that their expressions were a bit serious.

"Brother Su Yu, is there a problem?" Ah Rui asked strangely.

"A Rui, I always regard tattoos as gangsters. Scholars pay more attention to 'body, skin, and parents'. You said that Danfeng's husband's family is a scholarly family, so it is impossible to easily tattoo on his body." Su Yu explained to him, Luo Xunfeng nodded slightly at the side.

"Maybe it's because he loves Sister Danfeng too much, otherwise they wouldn't have passed the test of Chitong!" Ah Rui said, "Besides, Sister Danfeng came back to the village three months ago and said she passed the test." Very happy."

"Let's not talk about this matter for now, but apart from the elder secretary, Zi Yuan is also suspicious." Luo Xunfeng said.

"Ah? How could it be? Sister Ziyuan is a good friend of Sister since childhood!" Ah Rui said.

"I thought of a possibility. When Danfeng and her husband passed the red pupil test, they might have received advice from the former saintess. This advice was related to the skill of controlling red pupils. If Ziyuan got this from Danfeng The secret, what about teaming up with Chai Kun again? Chai Kun took someone to the back mountain to provoke your sister one night, and Zi Yuan lived in Baixian Pavilion that day. This may be deliberately planned by her and Chai Kun to make things easier. If you do something close to your sister, create chaos during today's divination, and seize control of Chitong in front of everyone, you can replace your sister's seat in one fell swoop."

"Impossible! Impossible!" A Rui scratched his hair and said, "Sister Ziyuan can't do such a thing, and the saints are all chosen by heaven, and they don't have the skills to control the red pupils at all! Why do you doubt that Ziyuan Sister Yuan?"

"Because... something made me think of a possibility..." Luo Xunfeng frowned slightly. When Ah Rui denied that the saint had the special ability to control red pupils, he stared at the boy carefully, but only saw the boy There is no city on his face.

"What's possible?" Ari asked.

Luo Xunfeng's eyes turned slightly, "Forget it, that might be too bizarre, so let's not talk about it. The ones who are doubtful at the moment are the elder secretary and Zi Yuan. Can you think of anyone else?"

Ah Rui thought hard for a moment, then slowly shook his head.

Su Yu said from the side at this time, "Master, let's rush to the back mountain first, to prevent Chai Kun and his subordinates and possible accomplices from making trouble."

"That's right, Brother Feng, Brother Suyu, you must help my sister, help Izumozhai!"

"Well, no matter who Chai Kun is colluding with, we'll go see the tricks." Luo Xunfeng nodded, and he said to Su Yu, "You're not feeling well, so stay here, and Ah Rui and I will go now Back Mountain."

"No, Su Yu wants to follow the young master!" The young man immediately objected.

Luo Xunfeng frowned and looked at him.

"Master, I'm really fine!"

It was that kind of stubborn and earnest expression again, wishing he could cut his heart open and show it to himself.Luo Xunfeng looked at the young man, knowing that even if he was not allowed to follow, he would definitely follow incognito.

Sighing, Luo Xunfeng said, "Forget it, you come together."

"Yes, young master!" The young man's eyes showed joy and firmness.

"Then let's go!" Ah Rui rushed out of the room anxiously.

Su Yu followed Luo Xunfeng out of the house, and the person in front of him suddenly turned around and said in a low voice, "I will take the lead in everything, don't force yourself, this matter is over, I will take care of the things between you and me. "

"..." Su Yu was stunned for a moment, unable to understand the meaning of Luo Xunfeng's last sentence. When he came back to his senses, Luo Xunfeng had already walked a few steps away, so he hurriedly put his mind away and rushed up.

Outside the house, dark clouds overwhelmed the top, and the rain gradually picked up.
