Chapter 215 Crying?
Ye Lanzhou supported Yan Su, and the two of them walked along a narrow corridor into the backyard, entered the ancestral hall that Xie Chengyan had told her about before, found the secret door in the basement, and went in.
The basement was pitch black and Ye Lanzhou couldn't find the light, but he could hear Yan Su's breathing getting louder and louder.
Ye Lanzhou held Yan Su's hand, found a corner against the wall, and helped her sit down.
The musty smell in the cellar was mixed with the smell of blood, and Ye Lanzhou suddenly felt something sticky.
She exclaimed, "Are you bleeding?"
With her fingertips pressing on the frantic pulse on Liu Ruyan's wrist, Yan Su's pale face flickered with a smile. She suddenly grabbed her trembling hand and said, "Your palm is colder than mine."
Her voice became quieter and quieter. Ye Lanzhou seemed to realize something and immediately patted Yan Su and said, "Don't sleep with Miss Yan!"
She used a silver needle to pierce the Sanyinjiao acupoint in the dark, but felt more warm blood gushing out. She couldn't see anything clearly, so she could only find Yan Su's acupoint by touch.
The darkness made her feel uneasy.
Yan Su's breathing became weaker and weaker, and the hand holding her arm gradually lost its strength. Fear filled Ye Lanzhou's heart at this time.
Prince Rui's mansion was raided, Yan Su was critically ill, and Xie Chengyan disappeared...
Ye Lanzhou felt like someone was strangling her throat. She gasped for breath, but found that she could not catch her breath at all. However, she could not rest because Yan Su's condition was even more dangerous than hers.
She forced herself to squat in front of Yan Su. Suddenly, there was a faint sound above her head, and gravel fell. Ye Lanzhou instinctively threw herself at Yan Su, but saw a familiar figure in the dust.
He had his back to the light, and as he appeared, Ye Lanzhou's vision gradually became clearer.
"Xie Chengyan?"
In the ray of light that shone into the basement, Xie Chengyan's black armor was covered in blood, the long sword in his hand was still dripping with sticky blood, and the corpses of the imperial guards were lying in a mess behind him.
Ye Lanzhou opened his mouth and suddenly trembled all over. All his forced composure collapsed at this moment.
She staggered into Xie Chengyan's arms, but was hit on the head by his cold armor.
I cried even harder...
Xie Chengyan pressed her to his chest, stroked the back of her neck with his bloody palm, and said nothing. He just put his head on her neck and took a deep sniff.
Then I felt a damp and hot sensation on my shoulder, which I thought was blood, but it was not as sticky as blood.
Ye Lanzhou was stunned and raised Xie Chengyan's head.
Xie Chengyan's eyes were slightly red and there were some water stains in the corners of his eyes.
He cried...
He actually cried?
Ye Lanzhou raised his hand to wipe away Xie Chengyan's tears, but felt a pang of bitterness in his heart. An indescribable feeling surged in his heart, and his fingers trembled unconsciously.
Xie Chengyan only felt that the place where he was touched was slightly hot, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
The lights in the basement came on, and he leaned over and picked her up horizontally, shouting to the guards behind him: "Take her away!"
He was referring to Yan Su behind him.
The morning breeze lifted his blood-stained cloak, and Ye Lanzhou saw that the palace walls were densely packed with arrows.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt like the capital had completely changed. The air was filled with the smell of war: smoke, gunpowder, blood...
Just like the air in Nanyang that year.
The difference is that this time she was not abandoned.
After they left the basement, Xie Chengyan covered her eyes and whispered in her ear, "It's almost dawn."
Ye Lanzhou looked up and saw that the night was long and dark, how could there be any sign of dawn?
