Chapter 56 Search

After stepping out of the heavy door, Jiang Xianchuan took big steps without hesitation and walked hurriedly in the direction where Li Lingyu left.

In fact, he was not very sure whether he could find Li Lingyu successfully. After all, Li Lingyu might have gone far away or hidden in some unknown corner.

But deep in Jiang Xianchuan's heart, there was a voice that kept echoing: I must not let Li Lingyu go so easily! Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I must try to find him.

At the same time, on the other side, although Shi Yi's heart was filled with sadness and loss, she was not defeated by this negative emotion.

On the contrary, she adjusted her mindset at an amazing speed and got out of that painful mood, because she knew that the most important thing at the moment was not to dwell in sadness, but to take action as soon as possible.

After careful consideration, Shi Yi decided to first find out who had the strongest opinions about Li Lingyu and who was spreading the rumors about Li Lingyu everywhere.

With this clear goal in mind, Shi Yi began to look for relevant clues without stopping, and finally locked his sights on Qi Xiaoyao.

When he saw Qi Xiaoyao, Shi Yi stated his purpose straight away. Facing Shi Yi's request, Qi Xiaoyao couldn't help but frown slightly and said with a little dissatisfaction: "You actually need my help for such a small matter?"

Hearing this, Shi Yi looked at Qi Xiaoyao firmly and replied, "Yes, that's right. My power alone is too small, and there are many people in the camp. Without your help, it will be difficult to complete this task."

Seeing Shi Yi's resolute attitude, Qi Xiaoyao was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, indicating his willingness to help. However, he also made a request, hoping that Shi Yi could tell him the reason why he was so persistent.

Shi Yi took a deep breath and replied solemnly: "I want to let those guys who spread rumors know that there will be a heavy price to pay for making up lies and spreading rumors at will!"

"Ahhhh, Li Lingyu, when I find you, I will tear you into pieces and grind your bones to ashes!" At this moment, Jiang Xianchuan was on the verge of collapse. He wandered on this complicated road for a long time like a headless fly, but he still didn't find any clues about Li Lingyu.

Not only that, Li Lingyu wasn't even seen along the way, but those creepy zombies kept appearing like a tide.

Jiang Xianchuan was struggling to avoid the zombies' attacks while anxiously searching for Li Lingyu's whereabouts.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed a shocking bloodstain on the ground not far ahead. His heart tightened suddenly, and he hurriedly walked forward, squatted down and took a closer look. He saw that the bloodstain had not dried yet, and it was obviously left not long ago.

Jiang Xianchuan stretched out his finger and gently wiped the blood on the ground. His fingertips felt warm and sticky. He frowned and thought to himself: This blood is so fresh, this person must have just left here not long ago, and judging from the amount of blood, this person seems to be seriously injured.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xianchuan couldn't help but think of Li Lingyu who was injured in the chest. Could it be that he was really attacked by zombies here, causing the wound that had not yet healed to split open again?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xianchuan did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately walked quickly along the faint traces of blood. Along the way, his heart was tightly gripped, fearing that if he was a step late, it would lead to irreversible consequences.

Not long after walking, a wide lawn appeared in front of them. Jiang Xianchuan walked lightly and approached cautiously, as if he was afraid of disturbing something.

When he finally saw the scene clearly, he froze in place as if struck by lightning. He saw Li Lingyu lying lifeless in the grass, his body covered with wounds of varying sizes, crisscrossing each other. Blood was constantly oozing out of them, staining the grass beneath him red.

His originally strong and powerful body now became extremely weak, and his breathing was extremely faint, as if he was a candle in the wind and could go out at any time.

Jiang Xianchuan felt a sharp pain in his heart and his eyes were moistened. He didn't have time to think about it. He ran over quickly and squatted down to carefully check Li Lingyu's injuries. "Lingyu, how are you?" Jiang Xianchuan called softly with a trembling voice.

Hearing the familiar voice, Li Lingyu struggled to open his heavy eyelids, forced a smile, and said in a hoarse voice: "I... I'm fine, don't worry, it's just a wound... that accidentally opened..." However, his pale face and weak words made the so-called "nothing" seem so pale and powerless.

Jiang Xianchuan was anxious and angry, tears rolling down his cheeks uncontrollably. "You call this okay? You're injured like this and you're still trying to be brave! I really don't want to care about you anymore!"

Having said that, he quickly took out various medicines and bandages from his personal space, and began to bandage Li Lingyu in a flustered but extremely serious manner. Every move he made was filled with deep concern and worry, fearing that he would hurt the other person.

"Don't ignore me..." Li Lingyu murmured weakly, slowly propped himself up, and looked at Jiang Xianchuan with a dazed look on his face.

Jiang Xianchuan was seen gritting his teeth, his cheeks slightly bulging, veins bulging on his forehead, and he was obviously trying his best to suppress the urge to punch Li Lingyu hard.

"Why did you leave the camp secretly?" Jiang Xianchuan suppressed his anger and squeezed out these words.

Li Lingyu lowered his head, not daring to look Jiang Xianchuan in the eye, and stammered, "I don't want them to say that you..."

Hearing this answer, Jiang Xianchuan was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help laughing angrily, "Haha, you are so ridiculous! Don't you know? I don't care about their gossip at all!"

"I know, but I care." Li Lingyu raised his head and looked at Jiang Xianchuan firmly, with a hint of stubbornness seeming to flash in his clear eyes.

Seeing this, Jiang Xianchuan was so angry that he clenched his fist and hit Li Lingyu's head lightly without thinking, muttering: "Ahhhhh, you are really going to piss me off to death! Come on, come on, hurry back to the camp with me, I want to see who is so bold as to gossip behind my back, I will teach him a lesson and beat his stinky mouth into pieces!"

Li Lingyu was startled by Jiang Xianchuan's sudden action and subconsciously shrank his neck, but soon came to his senses and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

"Why am I here? Humph, of course I came out to find you!" Jiang Xianchuan rolled his eyes in annoyance and said with his hands on his hips.

Hearing this, Li Lingyu was stunned. After a long while, he murmured to himself as if waking from a dream: "Looking for me?"

"Yes, I came here to find you! You ran away without saying a word, and everyone was worried. Not only me, but even Shi Yi was looking for you everywhere in the camp. In the end, we couldn't find any trace of you in every corner!" Jiang Xianchuan became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice unconsciously rose by eight octaves.

"Don't be angry, okay?" "I'm not angry, I'm not angry..." Jiang Xianchuan tried his best to comfort himself at this moment. Li Lingyu immediately hugged Jiang Xianchuan when he saw this, "I was wrong, don't be angry, okay?" Seeing him like this, Jiang Xianchuan was a little helpless, "There is no next time, if there is, I will ignore you for the rest of my life." "Okay, I will listen to you from now on."

Jiang Xianchuan carefully examined the shocking wounds on Li Lingyu's body. His eyebrows were tightly wrinkled, his eyes were full of concern and worry, and he asked anxiously: "Who is so cruel to hurt you like this?"

After hearing Jiang Xianchuan's question, Li Lingyu just lowered his head silently without saying a word.

He thought to himself, how can I tell the truth about this? Should I tell Jiang Xianchuan that these injuries were caused by me on purpose? Thinking of this, Li Lingyu couldn't help but sigh secretly.

It turned out that he went to the farm to get some important supplies this morning. However, when he came out of the farm, he happened to see Jiang Xianchuan looking for him everywhere.

Then, a strange thought came to his mind - he wanted to test whether Jiang Xianchuan really cared about him.

Just like that, he quietly followed Jiang Xianchuan, and when the other party was not paying attention, he cut himself with a prepared weapon, and then carefully left bloodstains along the way.

At this moment, facing Jiang Xianchuan's increasingly urgent questioning, Li Lingyu remained silent. Seeing this, Jiang Xianchuan became even more anxious, and his voice unconsciously rose a few degrees: "Why don't you speak faster!"

Finally, Li Lingyu seemed to have made up his mind. After hesitating for a moment, he slowly said, "I don't know. I think we were ambushed by someone."

Jiang Xianchuan couldn't help but snort after hearing this, his anger was evident in his words: "Humph! How dare someone attack you? You simply don't know how to live or die! Don't worry, no matter how much it costs, I will help you find this evil murderer!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xianchuan carefully helped Li Lingyu up and walked slowly towards the camp step by step.

Along the way, his eyes never left the wounds on Li Lingyu's body. At the same time, he prayed silently in his heart, praying to God that Li Lingyu's injuries would not be too serious and that he would recover as soon as possible.

After returning to the camp, Shi Yi rushed out like a gust of wind to greet them. Her originally cute face was now full of worry and shock: "How could he be injured so badly? What happened?" As she spoke, she and another person carefully supported Li Lingyu and staggered towards where Lin Pianyue was.

Lin Pianyue couldn't help but frown when she saw Li Lingyu covered with wounds and blood. She stared at the sharp knife marks and fell into deep thought for a moment.

After a moment, she raised her head and said to Shi Yi and Jiang Xianchuan, "Brother, Sister Shi Yi, you two go out and wait first. Leave this to me. I need to perform surgery on him."

After hearing this, the two of them were still a little uneasy, but they followed his instructions and slowly left the room, and gently closed the door. Only Lin Pianyue and Li Lingyu were left in the room.

Lin Pianyue cast her gaze towards Li Lingyu again and sighed softly: "You, you never take care of yourself. It's okay to hurt yourself, but this time it's so serious! Could it be that he still hasn't figured it out?" Li Lingyu smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying with a hint of bitterness in his voice: "No... To him, maybe I'm just an ordinary friend..."

Looking at Li Lingyu's frustrated expression, Lin Pianyue couldn't help but smile slightly.

She began to treat Li Lingyu's wounds with skillful techniques, and at the same time, she did not forget to teach him some love experience: "Listen to your sister, in the future, you have to learn to create opportunities for yourself to have more intimate contact with him. For example, when you are accidentally injured, you can deliberately pretend to be weak and pitiful, so that he can take care of you; or occasionally pretend to be drunk, and then lean on him. Small tricks like this can often have unexpected results."

Li Lingyu stood there quietly, listening carefully to every word spoken by Lin Pianyue. When he heard the method she mentioned, a hint of doubt gradually emerged on his originally calm face. He couldn't help but frowned and asked softly: "Will this really work? Why do I feel that it is a little unreliable..."

However, facing Li Lingyu's doubts, Lin Pianyue seemed extremely confident. She raised her chin slightly, with a faint smile on her lips, nodded firmly to Li Lingyu, and answered decisively: "Believe me! This method is absolutely effective. Men will fall for it!"

After hearing Lin Pianyue's confident words, Li Lingyu was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking over and over in his mind whether what she said was feasible.

Finally, as if he had figured something out, he nodded thoughtfully, indicating that he was willing to try the plan proposed by Lin Pianyue.
