Chapter 172 Timid
Mu Bai didn't say anything, but just reached out and touched his ear. His earlobe was hot, as if he had a high fever. He took the medicine and gauze and hooked his finger at Lin Feng.
"Stretch out your hand."
Lin Feng smiled and stretched his hand in front of him. Mu Bai held his fingertips. Lin Feng tilted his head, curled his fingers slightly, and hooked his palm.
"What are you doing?"
"Change the dressing."
Mu Bai looked up at Lin Feng, with a matter-of-fact look. Lin Feng tilted his head and nodded, glancing at Mu Bai's hand holding his fingertips.
The meaning was obvious. Do I need to hold his hand to change the dressing?
Mu Bai reacted at this moment, as if he was burned, and suddenly pulled back his hand. He had just held it for some reason. His Adam's apple rolled, and the palm of his other hand holding the medicine bottle was sweating.
He took a deep breath, and then removed the gauze from Lin Feng's hand. His movements were very gentle, so gentle that Lin Feng was a little surprised.
He was distracted and his ears were burning, but when the bloody gauze fell to the ground and he saw the wound on Lin Feng's hand, he lost all thoughts.
The flesh was a little turned outward, and there were bright red blood stains. His eyes were fixed on the wound. Lin Feng felt a complicated emotion when he was looked at by him.
He suddenly stretched out his other hand, blocked the wound, and no longer showed it to Mu Bai.
Mu Bai's view was suddenly blocked, and he looked up in confusion.
"How can I apply the medicine when you are like this?"
Lin Feng didn't look at him.
"Did you apply the medicine?"
Mu Bai was silent. He didn't. He was staring at the other person's wound and was distracted.
"Take your hand away."
Lin Feng was stubborn and didn't want to withdraw it. Then, he suddenly took it away again as if he had thought of something. There was only a short interval in between. Mu Bai didn't notice his emotional change at all.
Lin Feng's hands were very beautiful, white as jade, and his fingers were very slender. Mu Bai carefully applied medicine to him and re-bandaged him. Each movement was very gentle until he finally bandaged it and tied a knot on the back of his hand.
Mu Bai stretched out his hand to him.
"The other one."
Lin Feng obediently stretched out his other hand. This time the bandaging went smoothly and there were no more troubles.
Bai Qiu came to find him in the afternoon and said that he woke up and found that everyone was gone.
At first, I thought they just overslept. Later, after noon, I still didn't see them. I asked the waiter in the store and found out that Mu Bai had left with Lin Feng last night.
Bai Qiu was still wondering when the relationship between the two of them became so good, but then he heard from the waiter that the young man in white who was being held looked very weak, and blood was dripping from his sleeves.
Gu Jiu checked out again early this morning. Bai Qiu guessed that something might have happened. He had always felt that Gu Jiu's attitude and behavior towards Lin Feng were a little bit wrong, so he had always been friendly to Lin Feng, hoping to help Lin Feng a little. Now it seems that it is true.
Bai Qiu asked for a long time and finally found this clinic.
Actually, Bai Qiu came to say goodbye to them. They had agreed to hang out together, but this morning, he received a letter from home, saying that there was a happy event. He felt that he had been away from home for a long time and it was time to go back.
Before leaving, he took down his wallet and wanted to hand it to Mu Bai, but he stopped his hand the moment he stretched it out and gave it to Lin Feng instead.
"Please, Master Lin Feng, please take care of my good friend."
Lin Feng glanced at the dazed Mu Bai and took the wallet.
"Okay, I will not let you down."
Mu Bai's eyes were cold.
"Why don't you give it to me?"
Bai Qiu glanced at him.
"Don't you have any sense? Even if I give you three days, you can still make yourself sleep on the street."
Mu Bai didn't respond. They chatted for a while. Finally, Bai Qiu left. He hired a carriage and left overnight.
He said that the auspicious day was too late and they had to hurry back.
Mu Bai and his friends stayed in the clinic for ten days before leaving. The wounds of the demons heal quickly. Lin Feng's wound is now in good condition. Even the scars on the injured parts have fallen off, leaving a new white.
But the wound is not good-looking. Lin Feng doesn't like it, but he has no choice. The knife pierced his palm, so there is an ugly mark on the palm and the back of his hand. When
two people travel together, there is always less joy than when four people travel together. Mu Bai is not very good at talking, so they communicate very little.
With less communication, there are more actions, and with more actions, it seems ambiguous.
Mu Bai has cursed loudly in his heart more than once in the middle of the night.
But there is no way.
The heartbeat is always more honest than the person. No matter how fiercely he curses, it can't resist the intense heartbeat when he sees Lin Feng. It was not
until half a year after they walked together that they got to know each other's habits and preferences better. Lin Feng looked at Mu Bai with love in his eyes that he never concealed.
Some people look fierce and cold on the surface, but in fact they are the softest in their hearts.
It's just that Mu Bai never said it, and Lin Feng never expressed it.
This layer of window paper stood between the two of them, blurring their feelings, and when feelings were blurred, they became ambiguous.
Until later, they met Yu Yao.
Langchen Sword is a famous sword passed down from the ancestors of the Yu family. There is a secret that every hundred years, it needs to be sacrificed with demon blood, and this secret is only known to every owner of Langchen Sword.
Before his death, Yu Su passed the Langchen Sword to Yu Yao and told him this secret. When Yu Yao knew that the time was almost up, he began to look for the demons.
But alien races are becoming increasingly rare in this world, not to mention the need to accurately find the demons.
Just when Yu Yao thought that the Langchen Sword was going to be sealed, Gu Jiu found Yu Yao. He heard that Yu Yao was looking for the demons, so he sold the news of Lin Feng to Yu Yao.
He got money and avenged himself.
Lin Feng was ungrateful. I was so good to him, but he actually despised me and refused to give me even a drop of blood. He even watched Mu Bai kick me away.
Yes, Mu Bai was not a good person either. He said he hated him, but his actions showed that he liked him very much.
The result was as he expected. Yu Yao found Mu Bai and Lin Feng. When he learned that Yu Yao came to kill Lin Feng, Mu Bai grabbed the hilt of Fu Xueying's sword.
"When I draw my sword, you run."
Lin Feng: "Let's go together."
Mu Bai shook his head: "He is targeting you. I will be fine."
When Fu Xueying pointed his sword at Yu Yao, Yu Yao was still a little confused.
"You drew your sword against your own people for a foreign race?"
Mu Bai said: "We are all born into this world. How can we distinguish between foreign races?"
Yu Yao narrowed his eyes and started fighting with Mu Bai. Lin Feng ran away, all the way south, running wildly in the direction he and Mu Bai had agreed on.
He had no martial arts skills, nor was he very smart. He was just an ordinary demon who looked good, just like many ordinary mortals in this world.
But he knew that if he stayed, he would only become a burden to Mu Bai, making Mu Bai feel helpless. Running was the best choice.
At worst, they would meet again in the next town in the south.
Swords flashed behind him, the fight was fierce, and there was the sound of long swords colliding. Lin Feng did not dare to look back or delay. He ran forward desperately, and did not dare to stop even when he ran out of strength.
But at that time, Yu Yao was already known as a sword genius. Mu Bai did not beat him, so he could only try his best to delay time, hoping that Lin Feng would run farther and farther.
Even though he was covered in wounds and his clothes were soaked in blood, he did not give up.
Yu Yao kicked Mu Bai away and chased in the direction where Lin Feng fled. Mu Bai stood up with difficulty and tried to chase Yu Yao.
But he was seriously injured and there was no way he could run faster than Yu Yao. He could only hope that Lin Feng had run far enough.
Lin Feng saw the city gate in the distance. It was very small and far away in his eyes.
He did not stop until a long sword pierced his chest. His eyes widened and his pupils shrank. There was a moment of disbelief.
Then he closed his eyes with relief.
Forget it, it was probably fate.
This was the scene that Mu Bai saw when he arrived. Yu Yao pulled back the sword, and the Langchen Sword was still dripping with red-gold blood. It was Lin Feng's blood.
He left without even looking at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng fell to the ground.
Mu Bai's breathing suddenly stagnated, and then became rapid. He wanted to go to Lin Feng's side, but suddenly his legs became weak and he couldn't even walk properly.
"Lin Feng..."
Lin Feng turned around when he heard his voice and gave him a bloody smile. It was a beautiful, yet cruel smile.
Mu Bai squatted on the ground and held Lin Feng in his arms. He wanted to take him to see a doctor, but he was shaking all over and his eyes were red.
Suddenly, Lin Feng raised his hand and touched his eyebrows, and said to him with a smile.
"Forget it, Mu Bai, forget it. Not many doctors are willing to save a demon. Don't cry..."
Cry, did he cry?
His eyes were moist, and drops of water as big as beans fell on Lin Feng in his arms. He did cry.
"It's good like this. Yin Zi is in my arms, and I will be safe in the future..."
"Don't say anything. I'll take you to see a doctor. There will be someone willing to save you. There will be."
"Maybe this is my fate. If I leave, can you build a monument for me? Although no one cares, but..."
But he always wanted to leave something behind to prove that he once existed.
"I care!"
Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Mu Bai, and only the man could be heard saying in a trembling voice.
"I care, I beg you not to die, Lin Feng... I like you... I love you..."
Although he never admits it, although he always scolds himself in his heart, the fact is like this and cannot be refuted.
He always feels that he was so excessive to Lin Feng at the beginning and he is not worthy of liking Lin Feng, but he can't control his heart.
It's ridiculous that now that he finally admits it, he will lose him forever soon.
Mu Bai is not a mysterious and lonely Jianghu hero.
Mu Bai is a coward who can't even say that he likes someone.
