When the sleeves were lowered, it was seen that Zuo Qingzhi was covering her neck with her hands, and blood was gushing out from between her fingers.
Her eyes widened in disbelief, filled with fear and shock. She staggered a few steps and fell to the ground.
But she was still breathing, her other hand outstretched towards Xiao Yunying, mumbling something incoherently.
Xiao Yunying saw it clearly; the lip movements clearly said: "Save me."
Feng Yi tossed the longsword to the guard, took the handkerchief handed to him by the maid, and wiped the bloodstains splattered on his left sleeve. After wiping for a few moments, the handkerchief was stained with several streaks of blood.
He tossed the handkerchief to the maid: "I'm not going to wipe myself anymore. I'll just change into something else later."
Xiao Yunying was stunned by what she had just witnessed, and only came to her senses when she heard him speak: "What... what are you doing? Quickly call a doctor!"
Feng Yi seemed puzzled: "Didn't Miss Yun Ying say she wanted to send her to hell?"
"I...I was just saying that out of anger, just arguing, I didn't ask you to actually hit me...You should call a doctor right away!"
"It's too late," Feng Yi said regretfully. "The neck is a very vulnerable area. If it's injured, you won't make it until the doctor arrives."
Xiao Yunying looked at Zuo Lanzhi lying on the ground. She was completely motionless, and blood spread across the ground, forming a large, glaring red patch.
A gentle breeze blew by, and she didn't know if it was just her imagination or if she really smelled a strong stench of blood. She felt her stomach clench a few times, covered her mouth, and ran to the nearby green plants to vomit.
Feng Yi said from behind her, "It was my haste that made me fail to understand Miss Yunying's thoughts. It was also my rudeness that I forgot that young ladies shouldn't be looking at this. Someone, quickly clean this place up."
A group of people came up and carried the body away in an orderly manner, then poured water and started washing the ground.
After Xiao Yunying finished vomiting, the ground over there had been cleaned up, with only a puddle of water and no other traces.
Only a faint smell of blood lingered in the air.
A maid brought her a handkerchief and some tea. Xiao Yunying rinsed her mouth, washed her face, and dried herself with the handkerchief.
This was the first time she had ever witnessed someone die so closely in front of her, and she was deeply shocked. After vomiting, she felt her head start to spin and become dizzy again.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and she frowned in discomfort.
Damn it, Feng Yi did this on purpose. He used the tactic of making an example of someone to scare others, and it really did scare him a bit.
However, she wasn't afraid that the other party would kill her; he probably wouldn't lay a hand on her until he got what she wanted.
She was horrified by the sight of Zuo Lanzhi's dead body.
Zuo Lanzhi's death was too sudden, and I was not prepared at all. To be so close to someone who died so tragically and to have witnessed the whole process, it would be a lie to say that I wasn't frightened.
Xiao Yunying frantically tried to figure out how to deal with him, and suddenly realized that her current discomfort was exactly what she needed.
She immediately took action, walking two steps toward Feng Yi, when suddenly she swayed and fell to the ground.
