Rushing into the room, I saw Yunwen squatting in the corner with her head buried in her arms. The floor was a mess, the table had fallen over, the chairs were smashed, and everything was broken, except for some metal objects that were spared. Walking forward along the mess, I saw her in the corner, sobbing silently, and next to her was the mirror that I had secretly hidden.

My heart twisted, thinking that maybe Yunwen had not slept much just now and was watching me, and I was anxious to hide the things that could reflect my face clearly. I guess she must have remembered the hiding place and found it from the secret place. The reason why I did this was probably as Yingchun said, my anxious hiding of things like mirrors would definitely be seen as making things more obvious. It was because I thought Yunwen was so ugly that I wanted to hide those things. It was better to have less trouble than more.

But in fact, my real thought is just that I hope Yunwen can live a happier life and not be bound by these things.

But it is obvious that girls' focus is usually different from men's. This is the reason why Yunwen deliberately found this mirror. She thought that I disliked her and thought she was ugly, so she hid the mirror. If so, she wanted to see how ugly she was, which made me so nervous that she saw herself, so she found a way to see herself.

I meant well but ended up doing something bad!

I walked towards her, stepping on some broken pieces of objects from time to time on the ground. The sounds were loud and harsh. I came to her side, squatted gently, and saw that her beautiful hands were full of splinters. Her arms and hands, which were already injured from swinging things, were bleeding again, making her body covered in blood.

"Yunwen, listen to my explanation. I am not doing this to prove anything to you, but I just want you to be happier. Don't misunderstand me." I said softly.

She still had her head buried like that, and I could vaguely hear her crying, but she didn't answer.

I walked over and held her hand, wanting to help her remove the wood chips and splinters in her hand, but she pushed me away and refused to let me touch her.

"No matter what, get up and go to the bathroom to rest, okay? Don't let the wound get worse. As for other things, don't think too much. I really don't mean anything else. You know, I may not understand girls very well and you may have misunderstood me, but believe me, I definitely don't dislike you." I comforted her.

After a long interval, her voice was as faint as a flickering candle in the room, and could dissipate at any time. She said, "I don't want to hear your explanation, and I don't want to see myself anymore. I'm no longer myself. I'm a monster. I should wear a mask like the monster riding a black horse, so that my face won't scare others. I can't accept myself like this. I think you and everyone else can't accept it. Who would be willing to stay with a monster?"

Seeing her so frustrated, I hurriedly ignored her struggle and grabbed her left arm and said, "Don't say that. Do you know how I feel now? I just feel very guilty. I blame myself for not being able to protect you well and letting you suffer. I just feel that my Yunwen has suffered and I want to alleviate her a little. I haven't thought about anything else. As for what Song Bailu said that you heard, if you don't want to listen anymore, let's leave them."

She raised her head, wiped the tears from her face, shook her head, and then put my hand on her left cheek without saying a word. I could feel the hot tears flowing down her cheek again and again, a little warm and a little sticky. I leaned over and kissed her left cheek. She looked at me in a daze, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Are you feeling sorry for me?" Yunwen asked in a weak voice.

I shook my head and said, "I'm just proving how I feel right now."

Her frown relaxed a little and she smiled, but then she sobbed again.

After letting down her guard, I picked her up and she stayed in my arms docilely, waiting for me to put her in bed. She still hugged me tightly and reluctantly, as if she was afraid that I would abandon her.

I also held her, but was relatively careful. After all, there were still many wounds on her body that were bleeding, so I couldn't hold her too hard. My hands kept stroking and comforting her sweat-soaked back. After she cried on my shoulder for a long time, her mood eased a little, so I helped her lie down. I also helped her pull out the wood chips and thorns on her hands one by one. After that, I wanted to get her some herbs to apply on the wound on her right arm that was broken and bleeding again.

At this time, the door opened, Yunwen hurriedly covered her face with the quilt and immediately let go of my hand.

Yingchun and Bailu walked in. They couldn't help complaining when they saw the mess on the floor, but they didn't want to get angry because I was by their side. I asked Bailu to apply medicine and gave her some instructions about Yunwen's ruptured wound. Then I went downstairs to get a broom, a dustpan, and an iron bucket. I went upstairs and saw Song Yingchun waiting for me at the door.

I was too lazy to pay attention to her, so I tried to avoid her and go inside, but I heard her say, "Do you know why those people didn't attack me, but Zhang Yunwen? It's because I'm useful. I can make small handicrafts and wooden handicrafts for them. These can be sold on the black market and exchanged for fish and good food. But Zhang Yunwen is different. She is a burden wherever she goes, so she was taken away. When I was captured, the ugly monster came to save me, but was beaten by the one riding the black horse. If it wanted to attack me, why didn't it do it?"

"Shut your stinky mouth. If you say it again, I'll make you get out of this city," I said.

"I'm just reminding you not to waste your time on useless things. My sister asked me to please you, but I think you should please us sisters now. Otherwise, one day you will feel that Zhang Yunwen is a burden, and my sister and I will not like you. Do you think you will still be valuable? By then, you will have no women left." Song Yingchun said.

I sneered and said, "Speaking of this, I want to tell you, give up, I have no interest in you sisters. To me, female gorillas are more attractive than you. Get out of the way."

After saying that, I went into the house, only to see Bai Lu applying medicine to Yunwen. She had just stopped talking, and I don’t know if she said something behind my back.

I cleaned up the things on the ground and swept them one by one, but I accidentally found something on the ground, it was an oil painting, and on this painting was a strange cave with wild grass growing all around. There seemed to be several pairs of eyes in the depths of the cave. I don't know what it was, but there were a few strokes of dark green, which might be some strange plant buds. The whole cave showed a certain regularity, as if it was artificially excavated, probably some kind of mine.

I couldn't help but think of something. To smelt iron, you need iron ore. There is no iron without ore. It can be seen that this mine may be related to the territory of the hyena people. It seems that they have existed at least in the 16th century, which is about four or five hundred years ago.

After Bailu fed the medicine, she applied it on Yunwen's face, and wrapped several strips of cloth vertically and horizontally along the top of her head, leaving the medicine inside and temporarily covering the right side of her face. She also made a hole in the cloth strip so that Yunwen could see clearly. She also bandaged the wound simply. After she was done, she smiled at me and was about to go out.

It was still evening when we went down to the cave. We made a big fuss in the hyena territory, rescued the people who needed to be rescued, and now we are back in the castle. It has been about half a day. Now it is almost dawn. I think everyone is very tired, so I said, "Pack up and call Yingchun in. Let's all rest and go to bed. You three can sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the sofa."

I thought Bai Lu would be happy to do it, but she said, "Oh, no need. We plan to rest downstairs. You know the reason. You guys go to sleep."

After saying that, she went out.

Killing someone is like destroying their heart. Bai Lu seemed to be speaking in a clever way, but in fact, she was doing something that destroyed their heart. She was indirectly using the knife to stab Yunwen!

I sighed and walked towards Yunwen, glad that she had fallen asleep with her eyes closed, but I didn't know whether she was really asleep or just pretending.

But no matter what, life has to go on. Yunwen is counting on Bailu to take care of her, so I won’t worry about it for now. Besides, I was very tired, so I went back to ** and fell asleep in my arms around Yunwen.
