Chapter 15 Why risk your life to save others?
The system, which originally intended to pretend to be dead, had to float out of Tang Xiaoyun's body after Tan Tai Lie called out for the second time.
Tan Tai Lie stared at it coldly and asked in a icy tone, "What on earth is going on?"
Hearing the question, the system's little brain worked quickly. Of course, it was not stupid enough to really say that it was its own operational error that caused Tang Xiaoyun to be injured.
Although it is just a system, it has flesh and blood and is an animal that can have emotions.
How could it not be seen that the big devil was very worried about Tang Xiaoyun at this moment? If he told it, his life would be in danger.
In just a moment, the system has analyzed the interests involved and then started to fool people.
[Boss, the host was stabbed by Cang Yan because he wanted to save you. The host is so pitiful, wuwuwu...]
Tan Tai Lie was stunned when he heard this. His mind, which had been disturbed by demonic energy, was now somewhat clearer. When he looked at Tang Xiaoyun's pale face, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. He frowned and asked, "Why did he... save me?"
The system continued to deceive: [Because the boss went astray and was besieged, it was the host who rushed to your side without hesitation to stop those people from harming you. It was also because the host noticed that Cang Yan was about to hurt you, so the host blocked the sword for you in a desperate situation!]
"He... blocked the sword for me?"
Tan Tai Lie was a little bit unconvinced. Although he knew that the Tang Xiaoyun in front of him was not Tang Xiaoyun from the Tang Clan, he also knew that someone who cursed and hated him in his heart would save him at all costs?
How is this possible?
There are tens of thousands of people in this world who hate him and wish him dead. Even his own father had tried to kill him. How could a stranger do such a thing?
The system stole a glance at the expression on Tan Tai Lie's face. Seeing him look doubtful and sad at turns, it knew that he would not be fooled by a few words.
Then he quickly added: "Boss, don't be fooled by the host's carefree appearance. He's actually a warm-hearted person. He'll help an old lady cross the street and stand up for justice when he sees injustice. Furthermore, he's your male concubine. Even though he often curses you in his heart, he might have already fallen in love with you."
The system is really deceiving, and I’m afraid that Tan Tai Lie won’t be fooled.
After hearing what the system said, the resolute expression on Tan Tai Lie's face softened a little, and he asked in a somewhat surprised tone, "You said... he likes me?"
System: [Why else would he risk his life to save her?]
Upon hearing this, Tan Tai Lie lowered his eyelids slightly, his white eyelashes casting a shadow under his eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up inadvertently, but the smile was fleeting, and it seemed as if a barely perceptible shyness crept up his cheeks.
He looked at Tang Xiaoyun, who had her eyes tightly closed, with tenderness in his eyes, and whispered softly, "Risting your life to save me...?"
The heart that had been calm for many years was now rippling like spring water and could not calm down for a long time.
"I understand. You can go back." Tan Tai Lie said as he took out an emerald green porcelain bottle from his waist, pulled out the cork, and poured out a pill from it.
Then he pried open Tang Xiaoyun's mouth and stuffed the pill into his mouth.
The system heaved a sigh of relief when it saw that Tan Tai Lie's expression was gentle and his movements were gentle, as if he was treating a porcelain doll that was about to break.
God knows, it was almost scared to death just now.
Then the guilt in his heart was infinitely magnified. He looked at Tang Xiaoyun with sympathy and helplessness, thinking: Host, please don't blame me. I don't want to die yet. Wuwuwu...
After feeding Tang Xiaoyun the pill, Tan Tai Lie undressed Tang Xiaoyun. Although Cang Yan's sword strike was fierce, fortunately it did not hurt any serious harm.
The sword-sized wound on his right abdomen had stopped bleeding after he took the elixir. Tan Tai Lie went outside to pick some herbs, crushed them, and applied them to the wound.
He then tore off a corner of his robe to bandage his wound. After doing all this, he began to meditate and regulate his breathing.
After the blood in the body circulated thirty-six times, it was already dark.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard Tang Xiaoyun's murmur in his ears. He stood up and walked to Tang Xiaoyun and asked softly, "Are you awake?"
However, Tang Xiaoyun did not open his eyes. His body was trembling slightly, and his lips were pale: "...cold..."
"What did you say?" he asked, leaning closer.
"It's so cold... I'm so cold..."
cold?
Tan Tai Lie frowned, glanced outside the cave, then stood up and walked out. After a while, he came back with a pile of dry firewood.
Then they quickly put the dry firewood together and started to make a fire. The originally dark cave was illuminated by the fire, and warmth came with it.
He walked over to Tang Xiaoyun, picked him up, sat down closer to the fire, and asked softly, "Are you still cold now?"
“…”
He looked down at Tang Xiaoyun, who was lying unconscious in his arms, and his throat moved. The purple veil covered most of his face, and the blood on the veil had dried, causing the veil to stick to Tang Xiaoyun's face.
He subconsciously reached out to pull the veil, but stopped abruptly when his hand just touched the veil.
He chuckled, mocking himself for what he was doing to an unconscious person.
Then he took off his robe and covered Tang Xiaoyun with it, and they slept with their heads touching...
After an unknown amount of time, the sunlight outside shone into the cave. The orange-yellow sunlight shone on Tang Xiaoyun's face, making him frown subconsciously.
After a while, Tang Xiaoyun slowly woke up. He slowly opened his eyes and saw the handsome face so close to him.
The other person's even breathing gently brushed his face, bringing a hint of warmth.
Tang Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, then raised his head slightly and looked down, and saw that Tan Tai Lie's hand was on his waist, and the two of them were hugging each other face to face.
In an instant, he got goose bumps all over his body. He was actually sleeping in the arms of the big devil!
Oh, and the veil!
He subconsciously raised his hand to touch the veil on his face, but because his movement was too big, it pulled the wound on his body, and he couldn't help groaning in pain.
"Well!"
The noise startled Tan Tai Lie awake. He slowly opened his eyes, still lingering sleepiness. But when he saw Tang Xiaoyun's awake appearance, he asked anxiously, "Are you awake? How do you feel? Does your wound still hurt?"
After saying that, he wanted to take off his clothes to check his injuries.
"Wait, wait, wait... a moment, I'm fine!!" Tang Xiaoyun's face flushed red, she held his hand, her heart beating like thunder.
What is the situation now?
How could he sleep with the big devil?
He closed his eyes and thought about it, and the scene of the sect competition yesterday suddenly came to his mind.
[By the way, yesterday I was stabbed by that old fox Cang Yan. Speaking of Cang Yan, System, can you come out and explain it to me?]
Yesterday he clearly asked the system to save him first, but that jerk directly used him to block the sword.
Fortunately, he is lucky, otherwise he would have met the King of Hell by now.
Hearing this, Tan Tai Lie silently pulled his hand back from Tang Xiaoyun's hand, then picked up the robe covering him and put it on.
To be honest, he didn't completely believe what the system said yesterday, and he also wanted to hear how the system would explain it.
system:……
[Don't play dead, I know you heard it! ]
