"Xinglang!"
Gu Xingnuo's voice sounded panicked, desperate and helpless. He wanted to protect his younger brother Gu Xinglang, but in the end, he couldn't save either of his two younger brothers?
The wooden windows were blown by the wind, constantly hitting the wall, making a "bang bang" sound.
Jing Mo grabbed Xiao Wei with one hand and Gu Xingnuo with the other. He couldn't let these two rush forward to die.
"Xinglang," Gu Xingnuo desperately shook off Jing Mo's hand.
"Xiao Wei, help me!" Jing Mo called Xiao Wei, and he took a step forward and hugged Gu Xingnuo around the waist just like he had just stopped Xiao Wei.
Xiao Wei came back to his senses after being called by Jing Mo, and rushed over to help Jing Mo drag Gu Xingnuo back.
Gu Xingnuo had no way to break free from Jing Mo and Xiao Wei's obstruction and could only shout Gu Xinglang's name over and over again.
At this moment, the world in Gu Xinglang's eyes was bloody and distorted. He longed to feel his hands soaked in blood. The sounds that kept ringing in his ears were like a spike piercing his heart, a blade cutting his flesh, and a hammer breaking his bones. Gu Xinglang was in great pain and furious. But the two words "Xinglang" made Gu Xinglang wonder, this is a person's name, it is his name, who is calling him?
Seeing that Gu Xinglang was standing there and hadn't made a move yet, Master Fenglin said to Master Gu, "Call him again."
Before Young Master Gu could shout again, Gu Xinglang's hand loosened, and Gu Xingyan fell into a pool of blood beneath him, holding his throat and coughing.
This sudden change shocked several people present again.
"Xing, Xingyan?" Jing Mo and Xiao Wei loosened their grip, Gu Xingnuo broke free from their hands, rushed into the room, and half-knelt in front of Gu Xingyan.
Gu Xingyan's face turned red from choking, and he raised his hand and waved at his elder brother, meaning that he was fine.
Gu Xinglang groaned at this moment, as if he had been hit hard, and collapsed to the ground.
"Xinglang?!" Gu Xingnuo, who was half-kneeling, leaned forward and supported Gu Xinglang, only to find that Gu Xinglang's body was shaking violently.
Jing Mo and Xiao Wei also walked into the room. Xiao Wei looked at the three brothers lying or kneeling on the ground, at a loss for a moment, then ran to the candlestick to light the lamp.
Master Fenglin said to Jingmo, "Please help me send my brother out."
It was raining heavily outside and inside the house.
Jing Mo carried the unconscious Wuhuan out of the room, kicked open the door of the guest room opposite, and placed Wuhuan on the bed in this room.
Master Fenglin followed in, felt Wuhuan's pulse, and said to Jingmo, "My senior brother is fine."
Seeing Master Fenglin about to leave, Jing Mo raised his hand to stop Master Fenglin and asked, "Xinglang, what's going on?"
Master Fenglin said, "He can control himself. Isn't that great?"
Jing Mo said: "He calls this self-control?"
Master Fenglin said, "What else do you want Gu Xinglang to do? He didn't kill Gu Xingyan."
Jing Mo put down the hand that was blocking Master Fenglin and whispered, "They are brothers."
Young Master Fenglin said: "The others are all people who deserve to die, so let them die." This really doesn't sound like something a monk would say, but Young Master Fenglin said it with confidence.
Jing Mo could hear Master Feng Lin's words defending Gu Xing Lang, and frowned. Jing Mo said to Master Feng Lin, "I didn't mean to say anything bad about Xing Lang. I just want to know, if that person wasn't Gu Xing Yan, would Xing Lang still stop?"
Master Fenglin said: "He stopped not because it was Gu Xingyan, but because he knew who he was. As long as he knew that he was Gu Xinglang, he would not kill people indiscriminately."
Jing Mo nodded, and asked with concern: "Then why did he collapse to the ground?"
Master Fenglin turned around and glanced at the door opposite, and whispered, "If he wants to maintain his sanity like he does, he will have to pay a price."
Jing Mo looked at Master Fenglin, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and asked: "What did you do to him?"
Master Fenglin looked at Jing Mo and smiled, saying, "Do you think I will harm him?"
Jing Mo said: "You grew up by Mo Wen's side, so I don't care what your background is or what you've experienced. People are always close to each other, and I can't completely trust you right now."
Young Master Fenglin was a little surprised by Jing Mo's frankness. It was not easy to hear such straightforward words from Jing Mo's mouth. Could it be that this person was not going to use him when dealing with the Eternal Life Temple and Mo Wen?
Jing Mo pressed on: "Now tell me, what did you do to Xing Lang?"
Master Fenglin looked gentle, but he was not a gentle person. Seeing Jing Mo pressing the question, the master smiled and said, "I will not harm Gu Xinglang. Whether you believe it or not has nothing to do with me."
"He wouldn't be in so much pain for no reason." Jing Mo was not someone who could be easily dismissed. He stared at Master Fenglin and said, "You must give me an explanation."
Master Fenglin said, "I want to give you an explanation. Who are you to Gu Xinglang?"
Jing Mo said softly: "I regard Xing Lang as my brother, you must give me an explanation today."
When Jing Mo was interrogating Master Fenglin in the room, Gu Xingnuo held Gu Xinglang in his arms. Gu Xinglang's body was shaking violently, which made Master Gu hug his brother tightly, just like when Gu Xinglang cried as a child, and coaxed him in a low voice: "It's okay, Xinglang will be fine soon..."
Gu Xingyan, who escaped death, sat on the ground, looking at Gu Xinglang in his elder brother's arms with a sad look.
Xiao Wei stood aside, not knowing what to do at this moment.
Gradually, the trembling Gu Xinglang calmed down. He opened his eyes, his vision became clear, and the frightening bloody totem on his face disappeared. "Second brother?" Gu Xinglang opened his mouth and shouted.
Gu Xingyan wiped his face quickly, moved closer to Gu Xinglang, and said, "Second brother is here, Xinglang, how do you feel now?"
Gu Xinglang looked at Gu Xingyan's neck. There was a five-finger mark on the second young master Gu's neck, which was black and purple due to severe bruising.
Gu Xingyan touched his neck nonchalantly and said to Gu Xinglang, "Second brother is fine, don't worry about it."
Gu Xinglang looked painful. He wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say. He almost killed his second brother. Should he apologize? What's the point of apologizing?
Gu Xingnuo raised his hand and wiped Gu Xinglang's eyes. His palm was wet. He didn't know if it was blood, rain, or Gu Xinglang crying.
Gu Xingyan pulled up his collar, trying to cover up Gu Xinglang's handprints.
Gu Xinglang's eyes were covered by Gu Xingnuo, and he whispered, "I'm sorry."
Gu Xingyan said loudly: "I'm fine, right?"
Gu Xingnuo hugged Gu Xinglang up, rubbed his chin against Gu Xinglang's bloody hair, and said, "Well done, Xinglang, you are great. You are great as long as you can control yourself!"
Gu Xinglang murmured, "I'm a lunatic."
"No," Gu Xingyan said quickly, "Who the hell dares to say you're crazy? I'll kill him!"
