Chapter 24 Chapter 24 They were stunned
The vision blurred by tears gradually became clear as the tears fell due to gravity.
Xie Yuan's appearance was very plain. When Su Yuan was forced to tremble his eyes physiologically, he lowered his eyes and saw the scars on Xie Yuan's wrist bones and above again.
The red is thick and a bit bright, somewhat different from what I saw in the square last night, as if it is a freshly-painted scar.
Su Yuan felt a little strange.
He had always believed that Xie Yuan's injuries were caused by others, but the new injuries that continued to persist and the healing ability that Xie Yuan had already demonstrated seemed to make it impossible for a normal person's thinking to apply to Xie Yuan.
Xie Yuan, who has a healing card, can choose to heal all his injuries.
But Xie Yuan did not do so. He let his injuries remain and new injuries occurred every day.
It's like—
As if leaving the pain on purpose.
Is there any connection between letting his skin remain painful and his aversion to being touched by others?
Su Yuan stared at Xie Yuan's scar in thought, and his eyes, which were still a little watery, suddenly shrank. When Su Yuan suddenly saw that the tear he had just dropped was about to drip onto Xie Yuan's wound, his heart beat rapidly and violently.
His brain buzzed and went blank for a moment, and he quickly raised his hands to try to catch his tears.
Su Yuan has not forgotten that his tears were defined as "holy water" by this mysterious organization.
The scene of Xie Yuan taking copies of his tears and distributing them to everyone last night is still vivid in his mind.
His tears that were collected by the mysterious organization had most likely been studied. Su Yuan was worried that if his tears shed at this moment came into contact with Xie Yuan, Xie Yuan would discover something.
When Su Yuan hurried to catch it, he successfully caught the drop of wet heat in a flash and prevented it from falling on Xie Yuan.
only--
Su Yuan tensed up as he watched his hand inevitably touch Xie Yuan's wrist. The moment he felt the distinct scar under his fingertips, he was so frightened that hot sweat broke out on his forehead.
He touched Xie Yuan's skin.
In the brief moment of contact, Su Yuan clearly heard Xie Yuan's extremely rapid and heavy breathing.
When the heat from Xie Yuan's body sprayed onto Su Yuan, Su Yuan's neck was burned by the heat and trembled slightly.
As if he was suppressing something, Xie Yuan's Adam's apple was pressed down greatly, and the blue veins on his hand that was touched by Su Yuan began to throb.
Seeing Xie Yuan's obvious abnormality, Su Yuan, who had touched his reverse scale, felt extremely nervous.
He had only one thought in his mind.
It's over. He has completely pissed off Xie Yuan.
Su Yuan's tears fell again, because of fear, and also because Xie Yuan's hand trembled as he checked his voice. The gloved finger pressed against the root of Su Yuan's tongue again, and even became stickier because of his saliva, and went deeper than last time.
Su Yuan was so frightened that he could only retreat quickly and immediately distance himself from Xie Yuan.
When he closed his mouth and looked at Xie Yuan carefully, he felt terrified in his heart.
The moment Xie Yuan looked at him, Su Yuan was unable to see Xie Yuan's specific expression due to his bangs, but this did not prevent Su Yuan's heart from skipping a beat.
Su Yuan panicked and hurriedly tried to find an explanation for the other person's behavior that he had just encountered.
Su Yuan couldn't talk about tears directly, so he could only bite the bullet and say something else.
Through the bangs that blocked his view, Xie Yuan could still see Su Yuan's frowning brows. The previous impatience and slight discomfort and pain were not taken away by the owner, but it did not affect her beauty at all. That pretty pink and white face looked particularly pitiful as she looked at him nervously, with wet tears hanging on her trembling eyelashes, and a light red at the corners of her eyes.
The man in front of him had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and accused him with wet cheeks.
——You hurt me.
This, coupled with his expression and posture at the moment, made people unable to help but speak in an ambiguous way, causing Xie Yuan's fingertips to rub and tremble again without any contact with anyone.
The person in front of me had an exceptionally beautiful face, but she looked very pure, so I didn't notice it at all.
She pursed her lips again, wrinkled her pink nose, frowned even deeper, and added slightly.
——Your hands make me feel very uncomfortable.
Xie Yuan's attention was uncontrollably diverted by this sentence, and his peripheral vision focused on his hand that was still hanging in the air.
The special material of the gloves made all the saliva in the other person's mouth that had come into contact with them hang up, and it was so dazzling under the light that it caused Xie Yuan's eyes to change subtly.
As if to confirm what he said, and also as if he was really uncomfortable, the beautiful boy in front of him couldn't help but breathe softly without saying a word.
The Adam's apple that he had just touched slid up and down on his porcelain-white neck, as if the owner was trying to re-moisten his sore throat.
As if he was infected, Xie Yuan also swallowed, and his neck rolled along.
*
After Su Yuan finished explaining in a somewhat flustered manner, he was still very scared.
After the examination of his voice was interrupted, Su Yuan didn't dare to continue at all. He was worried that he might accidentally cause some trouble.
In fact, you can just tell Xie Yuan to stop right now.
Xie Yuan seemed to be able to read lips, and he showed some subtle reaction after he finished speaking.
Although Su Yuan couldn't sense it clearly, he could judge that there was no doubt that he couldn't understand what he said.
But now Su Yuan didn't dare to make any requests directly to Xie Yuan, and he wanted to break the weird atmosphere between him and Xie Yuan that made him tremble, and pull other people in.
With only a few people in the corridor, Su Yuan had no choice but to ask for help.
Xie Yuan, who was facing Su Yuan, soon saw Su Yuan walking towards Clay.
The sudden surge of irritation in his heart caused the corners of Xie Yuan's mouth to flatten a little.
When Su Yuan walked in front of Clay, he was not sure if he really felt that the other party was a little strange and in a bad mood. Su Yuan, who just wanted to stop the chaos quickly, didn't care about these things. He quickly raised his face and said to Clay.
——I don’t want to check anymore, can you talk to him for me?
Clay, who was feeling a little unhappy at first, felt a little surprised, but his mood suddenly improved.
For this kind of request for help that requires someone to handle it, Clay originally thought that Su Yuan would choose to hand it over to Li Zhou.
When Clay thought that it seemed that Su Yuan depended on him more and he was pleased because of it, he didn't realize that Su Yuan didn't choose Li Zhou simply because Li Zhou couldn't read lips and couldn't understand what he meant.
In fact, Clay didn't need to convey it at all.
Xie Yuan, who also knew lip reading and followed Su Yuan with his eyes, had already seen it directly.
Su Yuan did not notice that the curve of Xie Yuan's mouth suddenly disappeared completely. When he made this request, because of his inner fear and terror of Xie Yuan, he felt that he should take the blame and put the final problem on himself.
So, under the gaze of Clay and Xie Yuan, Su Yuan spoke again with her pretty face which was already a little wet.
——I, I am more delicate.
Su Yuan felt ashamed because of these words, her cheeks flushed pink, and her eyes drooped as if she dared not look at anyone. She did not notice that Clay's eyes half-squinted, and the curve of Xie Yuan's lips returned to its original shape.
"Why don't you talk to me?" Li Zhou, who was watching this scene, couldn't sit still anymore and immediately took the initiative to move in front of Su Yuan. He said to Su Yuan anxiously, "Talk to me too."
Su Yuan's rosy face wrinkled immediately at these words.
What was he looking for? Li Zhou didn't understand his lip reading.
Moreover, in his mind, Li Zhou could already be regarded as the culprit who caused all this.
Su Yuan, who was already feeling ashamed and angry, became furious. He ignored Li Zhou and just glanced at him unhappily.
Anxious and anxious Li Zhou was so shocked by this glance that his heart skipped a beat.
The tails of Su Yuan's eyes were as pink as if dyed with peach juice at this moment, and when they drew an alluring arc in people's sight, they inexplicably brought out a bit of liveliness.
Li Zhou was thinking dizzily that Su Yuan looked really nice when he had a bit of temper.
While thinking.
Although he seemed to have made Su Yuan angry.
But why was Su Yuan angry only with him?
He must be different in Su Yuan's heart. Su Yuan only treats him like this, most likely because Su Yuan treats him -
When Li Zhou immediately apologized to Su Yuan, the corners of his mouth were still slightly raised.
Have high standards that exceed others.
Clay seemed to dislike Li Zhou a little. When he opened his mouth to help Su Yuan convey the message, he also interrupted Li Zhou's attention and actions.
Just Clay's words made Su Yuan's eyelids twitch.
"He doesn't want you to check him anymore." The bespectacled vice president said to Xie Yuan, "Your actions are too rude."
Su Yuan wrinkled his nose.
Why didn't Clay repeat his words completely? Why did Clay replace his spoiled words that put all the problems on himself with these somewhat offensive words?
Su Yuan immediately looked at Xie Yuan nervously, worried that the other party would get angry.
When Xie Yuan looked at Clay after hearing this, Su Yuan did feel that Xie Yuan's eyes had become a little colder.
Su Yuan couldn't help but light a candle for himself in his heart.
When he looked away anxiously, he saw Xie Yuan taking off his gloves in the last second.
Su Yuan was stunned for a moment. After a pause, Xie Yuan did not throw the gloves directly into the trash can next to him.
Xie Yuan's gloves disappeared out of thin air.
Su Yuan's face was gloomy because of his subconscious thoughts.
Did Xie Yuan hate them so much that he used his own card abilities to completely destroy them?
It seems that he really offended Xie Yuan badly.
*
Li Zhou asked Xie Yuan several more questions with great concern. Although the examination was suspended, some work had been done after all. Maybe Xie Yuan could figure out the cause of the disease. Unfortunately, Xie Yuan failed to live up to Li Zhou's expectations. He just shook his head in response to any of Li Zhou's questions.
However, the action just now was not a waste of time. The healing power that Xie Yuan exerted on Su Yuan really worked. The special liquid that He Sheng had people pour on Su Yuan began to lose its effect.
The barrier-like power that was faintly lingering around Su Yuan was gradually weakening, and Su Yuan vaguely felt the bond between him and the protagonist Yan Zhou.
Su Yuan did not react too much to the fact that he sensed that the protagonist was in good condition at the moment.
After all, if something really happened to Yan Zhou, he, as Yan Zhou's card, would also be shrouded in debuff. The fact that he is standing here normally means that the protagonist can deal with the situation on his side.
Su Yuan shifted his gaze to the window again. The outside was still shrouded in thick fog and nothing could be seen. Only various sounds of fighting could be heard one after another.
However, Su Yuan felt that the battle outside was about to end.
After the tenuous connection between him and the protagonist was reestablished, the shielding effect of the fog could no longer hinder the protagonist's steps. After Yan Zhou sensed his position through the connection, he was naturally able to accurately identify all the distorted directions and arrived at the library smoothly and quickly.
If Yan Zhou's aura as the protagonist came into play, as soon as he arrived at this key location, he would just happen to encounter the most critical and tense moment of the incident.
The final moment should be approaching soon.
The cold air outside the window spread through the gap and hit Su Yuan's face.
Su Yuan's face, which had been inexplicably pink, finally returned to its normal white color after being deprived of warmth.
The coldness on his cheeks made Su Yuan realize something, and he remembered that he should put on the mask again. A lot of things happened in a row just now, and Su Yuan didn't have the heart to think about this.
Thinking that there might be a lot of people here in a while, Su Yuan quickly looked forward, preparing to pick up the mask and hat that he had taken off and placed on the ground.
After looking around, I found that the corridor was empty. Su Yuan: "?"
Su Yuan hesitated for a while, looked around carefully, and found that his belongings were really gone.
Was it taken away by He Sheng and his men when they left just now?
Su Yuan stared at the blank ground in a daze, feeling a little confused.
When these people behave so badly, their quality is still so contradictory that they even pick up other people's "garbage" on the ground and throw it away.
With his eyelashes raised, Su Yuan had no choice but to borrow from the person next to him.
Xie Yuan and Su Yuan didn't dare to contact each other anymore. Li Zhou couldn't understand what Su Yuan said, so Clay was the only candidate left for Su Yuan.
When Su Yuan carefully told Clay about this incident, he also found an excuse for his somewhat abrupt behavior, saying that his face was a little cold from the cold.
"She's really delicate," Clay commented after chuckling, "She's afraid of both pain and cold."
Su Yuan secretly frowned in his heart.
Clay said this, but he seemed to be in a good mood and took out a mask. However, "But I don't have a new mask, only the ones I used."
Clay's words were very considerate. "If you don't like it, I can go to the bathroom and wash you, and then--"
Clay looked at Li Zhou, "Let Li Zhou use the cards to help you dry them."
If Clay hadn't said it, Su Yuan wouldn't have wanted to trouble him and would have just given in. But when Clay said it so naturally, Su Yuan was really tempted.
There was hesitation on his face, but his eyes were sparkling when he looked at Clay. After Clay raised his eyebrows slightly, he made a gesture to walk towards the bathroom.
But someone stopped him.
When Su Yuan blinked and looked at the new mask in front of her, the curvature of her eyelashes seemed to become even more curved out of confusion.
Behind the pale hand that handed over the mask was Xie Yuan.
"New." Xie Yuan said to Su Yuan.
Su Yuan took it in a daze, and was still a little confused until he put on Xie Yuan's mask.
Of course, he didn't think Xie Yuan wanted to help him. Su Yuan thought for a long time before hesitantly raising his hand to tighten his mask.
Is Xie Yuan such a germaphobe?
Not only is he a germaphobe, he also can't stand seeing others using other people's things in front of him.
When Su Yuan adjusted his mask, he noticed that Clay and Xie Yuan looked at each other for a while.
Su Yuan originally thought that they seemed to have been staring at each other for an unusually long time, and that something was wrong. But the next second, he heard an increasingly clear abnormal sound outside.
When Li Zhou's face changed slightly, Su Yuan carefully glanced at the expressions of Clay and Xie Yuan, guessing that they had just exchanged glances to communicate what would happen next after they felt that "their own people" were coming.
Su Yuan tried to capture some useful information from their expressions, but failed.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, leaving no time for people to react. Before Li Zhou could say anything about the bad noise, several figures in black cloaks broke through the window and flew into the corridor.
Li Zhou, with a tense expression, quickly summoned cards to fight against these cloaked men.
Xie Yuan, under his "good guy persona", also quickly mobilized his mental strength to respond.
Although Su Yuan's heartbeat instinctively accelerated, he was not actually too scared.
He soon felt some kind of fluctuation in his sea of consciousness. It was Yan Zhou who was trying to take him back to his own sea of consciousness.
Relying on the bond between the cards and the card master, Su Yuan accurately locked onto one of the cloaked men among the increasing number of men who looked identical in appearance, and stared into their eyes.
That is the protagonist Yan Zhou.
It seemed that when he rushed over, he just bumped into these cloaked men who were about to enter, and then he immediately changed into the clothes he had hidden in before, and followed these people in to fish in troubled waters.
When Su Yuan felt Yan Zhou's concern for him, he gently tugged at the hem of his clothes with his fingertips, feeling a little guilty.
But he still refused Yan Zhou's request to go back.
The reason why Su Yuan was not afraid was because he had already made up his mind to die in this operation.
Unlike Clay and Xie Yuan who seemed to have other plans and had complicated identities, these cloaked men were really attacking ruthlessly and with murderous intent. For Su Yuan, this was the best chance for him to die immediately.
After Su Yuan refused, he didn't dare to look at Yan Zhou, but Yan Zhou's breath was held.
He wanted to summon Su Yuan back by force, but unfortunately the liquid prepared by He Sheng had not yet completely lost its effectiveness and was still providing some weak blocking. This blocking just made it impossible for Yan Zhou to forcibly take Su Yuan back into his sea of consciousness.
When Yan Zhou looked at Su Yuan deeply, his fists were clenched tightly, and when the tips of his nails dug into the flesh, Yan Zhou couldn't tell what he was feeling.
In fact, it should be sweet and touching.
Su Yuan really cares about him and worries about him.
Yan Zhou knew that Su Yuan refused to return to his sea of consciousness because this recall would inevitably generate mental fluctuations directed at him. The moment Su Yuan disappeared, everyone on his side would instantly find out that he and Su Yuan were together, and would directly recognize him as a spy. He would be attacked by the people around him and would be in danger.
Su Yuan didn't want him to be exposed and put himself in danger, so he refused to be recalled regardless of his own safety.
But when Yan Zhou was deeply moved by Su Yuan's enthusiasm, he was really nervous and worried about Su Yuan.
Yan Zhou was rapidly stimulating his mental power and constantly trying to recall it by force, while he was also thinking in panic that he must tell Su Yuan later to ask Su Yuan to pay more attention to his own safety in the future and not do similar things again.
Yan Zhou quickened his pace. He blended in with the cloaked men to avoid being attacked by them. At the same time, he was also quickly approaching Su Yuan, ready to stay by Su Yuan's side.
On the other side, Li Zhou and Xie Yuan barely managed to resist the cloaked man's fierce attack.
When Su Yuan felt that this situation must have been deliberately manipulated by Xie Yuan, he heard Clay's calm command in the face of danger.
"Let's retreat. The room in the corridor behind where the Mirror of All-Seeing is located has been specially reinforced. If we get in before them and close the door, we'll be safe for now."
Clay's words seemed reasonable, but Su Yuan, who knew that the ultimate goal of this operation was the [Mirror of Omniscience], felt his heart rate continue to accelerate.
The new copy they want to cultivate is achieved by causing resonance in the [Mirror of Omniscience] and using the power of the [Mirror of Omniscience].
Clay deliberately led them to the [Mirror of Omniscience], he must have some plan against the [Mirror of Omniscience].
Li Zhou and Xie Yuan were in front, blocking and retreating. Su Yuan, who had poor physical fitness, was also pulled back by Claire's hand.
The vision in front of him became increasingly dimmer. Su Yuan's heartbeat became faster and faster as he listened to the extremely chaotic footsteps and fighting sounds around him.
Clay quickly arrived at the door and opened the seal with the authority he had applied for.
The moment the heavy door creaked open beside his ears, Su Yuan's heartbeat reached its peak.
When Su Yuan was brought into the room by Clay, sweating nervously, he swallowed hard because he knew the opportunity he had been waiting for was about to come.
Klein successfully brought Su Yuan in, and when he gentlemanly let go of her hand, Li Zhou, who had been struggling until his face turned pale and was almost exhausted, followed in.
What happened next was unforgettable for those present.
Li Zhou came in, waiting for Xie Yuan to come in and close the door, and was shocked to find that Xie Yuan's defense had a loophole. When Xie Yuan could no longer distract himself to resist, a magic arrow shot straight at Xie Yuan.
There is no way Xie Yuan can dodge this arrow now!
This also meant that Xie Yuan couldn't get into the house quickly.
If Li Zhou chooses to go out to rescue Xie Yuan now, it will be too late. This seemingly short rescue time is enough to make the door of this room unable to be closed.
Seeing the nearest cloaked man approaching, Li Zhou's heart was pounding, and his face showed a strong struggle. His palms were sweating as he held the door, his face was pale, but he still gritted his teeth and prepared to abandon Xie Yuan and close the door.
He couldn't let Su Yuan follow him into danger.
Even though Li Zhou knew clearly that his current behavior would cause his conscience to be severely condemned, he would not be able to sleep or eat well and his character would be damaged.
When Li Zhou tried to close his teeth with disordered breathing, he was shocked to find with his pupils slightly dilated that a soft hand was holding his wrist.
Li Zhou was subconsciously stunned for a moment, and then his pupils shrank slightly as he saw Su Yuan had already passed through his arms with his weak body, and rushed to Xie Yuan in a flash, helping Xie Yuan block the arrow.
When Su Yuan seized the opportunity to do these things, he didn't expect that he would "save Xie Yuan".
Su Yuan was actually somewhat unwilling in his heart. After all, Xie Yuan had disliked him many times, and he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.
This also meant that when Su Yuan was trying to block the injury, knowing that Xie Yuan hated being touched by others, he hugged him tightly as if to disgust him.
Su Yuan saw Xie Yuan's eyes full of disbelief and complete stupor, as well as Yan Zhou's instantly dilated red pupils as he rushed to his side in front of the cloaked man.
