Chapter 148
When Nan Yan heard Zhao Xiuyan's gentle and soothing voice, she seemed to finally regain consciousness and her emotions slowly stabilized.
Then she slowly raised her head. Her eyes, which had just been crying, were especially moist, as if they were flooded with spring water. Her eye circles were red, and the tails of her eyes seemed to be stained with a layer of peach-pink rouge.
Murong Tuo's face was flushed red and he was filled with anger, but when he looked down and saw Nan Yan like this, his expression paused for a moment, and he suddenly couldn't vent his anger no matter how angry he was.
He looked at this person with a slightly strange look in his eyes, wondering in his heart, how come this woman even cries differently from others? She cries so beautifully.
Nan Yan seemed to have just reacted. When she looked up at the people, her eyes were filled with panic and fear, especially when she saw Murong Tuo in her arms——
Oh, isn't this her bad-tempered little enemy junior brother?
His expression suddenly changed, and I don't know what he thought of, but his body instantly became stiff.
When she came to her senses, she almost subconsciously reached out and pushed the man away, then leaned back, with her back pressed tightly into Zhao Xiuyan's arms.
Very good, after hugging your junior brother, hug your senior brother.
Well, it's fair to treat everyone equally.
Feeling the warm body temperature, her hands subconsciously grabbed his clothes, and it was obvious that she trusted and relied on the person behind her more. She stared at the person in front of her with nervous and panic eyes, and began to put the blame on him.
"Why you? Why are you holding me? Where is my husband?"
The series of questions made Murong Tuo dizzy. He was pushed backwards by her without any preparation and fell to the ground accidentally, sitting on the protruding stone.
It felt very uncomfortable. I wanted to touch it but was too embarrassed to do so. My expression instantly became distorted.
Murong Tuo gritted his teeth in anger, his face flushed red. He raised his head and glared at her. Not only did this woman throw things away after use, but she also turned the tables on him. He glared at her angrily, looking like a beautiful, angry and irritable leopard.
"Look carefully, it was you who threw me over without a care, and I couldn't pull her away no matter how hard I tried. You still have the nerve to blame me, it's clearly you who took advantage of me this time, I've never been hugged like this by a married woman in my life!"
Young Master Murong felt that this person not only violated his innocence, but she even tried to violate the innocence of his senior brother. Especially when he saw that woman clinging to his senior brother's arms so dependently and trustingly, a nameless anger instantly rose from his heart.
"Witch, stay away from my brother. His injuries haven't healed yet. If you want to harm someone, just harm me and not my brother..."
Before he finished speaking, he reached out to her, trying to pull the person out of his senior brother's arms.
Nan Yan looked at the finger he stretched out to her, and she didn't know what scene she was thinking of. Her face suddenly turned pale. She turned her head and her head hit Zhao Xiuyan's chest behind her.
He only heard a muffled groan from the other party, and then he buried his head in his chest, his body trembling slightly.
"Don't, don't touch me, don't pull my clothes..."
She had held you with great difficulty, how could she let you tear her apart so easily?
Besides, why should old friends be so angry when meeting each other? She walked a long distance to find this place.
The wound on Zhao Xiuyan's chest was a little painful.
But he still subconsciously reached out and pressed her back, then raised his other hand to block the hand extended by his junior brother.
He exhaled a breath of foul air, frowned slightly, looked at his junior brother with a slightly reproachful look, and then said in a calm and gentle tone, "Junior brother, don't be like this. She just got frightened and can't stand the stimulation. Don't scare her."
Murong Tuo looked at Nan Yan who was being held in his arms by his senior brother, and then looked at his fingers being held down. He suddenly felt strange. He thought that his senior brother was too gentle in his attitude towards this demon... woman? She had nothing to do with them, so why was he so nice to her?
Murong Tuo felt depressed for a moment, but then he thought about his senior brother's character. His senior brother has always been gentle and steady, not ostentatious. He is also highly regarded by the elders among his fellow disciples. Among so many people, his senior brother has the best relationship with him. There should be no other reason for such a gentle and jade-like person.
Murong Tuo took a deep breath and suppressed some unnecessary anger deep in his heart. He must have been overthinking it.
I don't know why, but whenever it comes to matters involving this woman, he can easily lose control of his emotions and gets very angry with her every time.
Maybe it was because of this demon... women are naturally cunning, and he was afraid that his senior brother would be bullied, so he was so cautious.
However, seeing the man's confused and collapsed emotions, Murong Tuo snorted and stopped. He was shaking like a ghost. Why were you so afraid of what he might do? Did he look scary?
As I thought about it, I felt a little irritated. It must be a ghost. How could I meet this woman in such a haunted place? Could this be the legendary evil fate?
Seeing that it was getting late, the two men couldn't just leave her here, otherwise the girl they had just rescued would be targeted again in a short time.
Finally, the two of them took Nan Yan to a small inn not far ahead. The inn was very small and shabby. To say it was simple was an exaggeration. There were cobwebs on the beams. It could only be said that it was not much better than the wild. At most, it could only provide a temporary resting place for people.
This is normal. After all, it is in the wilderness, quite a distance from the town. The wanderers in the world have never been very particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Only some young masters of wealthy families have high requirements for these.
Sure enough, as soon as Murong Tuo entered the inn, the disgust in his eyes was almost written on his forehead. There were actually quite a few people living in this shabby inn, with only two empty rooms left.
The room was quite clean. At least the bedding was semi-new and smelled as if it had been washed. There were many knife marks and scratches on the table. It seemed that people often fought and made trouble here. But this was normal. Which inn has not experienced such things? Fortunately, the room was tidied up relatively neatly.
Originally there were two rooms, and Nan Yan, as a woman, naturally lived in one, and the other two could squeeze into one room for one night. But the frightened woman kept grabbing his senior brother's clothes, her face was pale, and she exuded extreme uneasiness from head to toe. In this situation, leaving her alone in such a shabby inn, Murong Tuo was worried that she would be scared to death by the howling of wolves outside at night.
Murong Tuo looked at the woman clinging to his senior brother, and he felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at her. He didn't know where this discomfort came from. It was really strange.
Zhao Xiuyan took Nan Yan in one hand and sent her directly to the innermost room. He carried her to the edge of the bed and sat her down. Then he patted her back and comforted her. "Okay, don't be afraid. No one will hurt you again. You stay in this guest room. My junior brother and I will stay in the room next to it. We will come here immediately if there is any noise at night. No matter what happened today, you will be fine after a night's rest. We will take you back tomorrow, okay?"
He held the back of her hand and patted it twice, indicating that she could let go.
But the person in front of her was obviously uneasy. She pursed her lips, her eyes slightly red, and her hands tightly grasped his lapels on both sides, constantly pulling him towards her.
"Don't go, don't go, don't leave me..."
She shook her head and looked like she was refusing to listen.
Zhao Xiuyan sighed softly, obviously noticing the man's panic. Perhaps what happened this afternoon really scared her, so she became so dependent on him.
This is a bit of a headache.
He thought about it, turned his head and looked at the environment in the room, then hesitated for a moment and whispered, "How about this? You sleep here, and I will sit on the chair over there to watch over you tonight. I promise not to leave you, and I won't let anyone bully you. Is this okay?"
As he spoke, he pointed towards a table and chairs not far away. It was a square table with a few stools around it. It looked extremely simple.
Hearing this, Nan Yan also looked in the direction of his finger, then turned back to look at him, hesitating for a moment before saying, "You...really not leaving?"
Zhao Xiuyan was slightly startled by such a look, but he lowered his head and laughed after hearing it. Then he helped her sit on the bed and pulled the quilt over her. "Well, I'll stay here tonight, you can sleep well."
Perhaps it was because this man's tone was too gentle and contained a convincing ability, Nan Yan finally gently loosened her fingers that had been tugging at his clothes.
Then she stepped back, wrapped the quilt tightly, and slowly lay down. However, her watery eyes were still staring at him, as if as long as this man left, she would follow him without caring about anything.
Originally Murong Tuo was standing at the door outside. He was about to occupy another empty room and have a good sleep, but he heard the movement in the house and the conversation between the two people.
I immediately gave up. What would happen if these two people lived in the same room?
Without thinking, he rushed over and sat down on the broken bench, staring at the person on the bed with sharp eyes, "No, if you two live in the same room, I have to keep an eye on her too, so that you won't be bullied by her in the middle of the night because you are too gentle."
Zhao Xiuyan frowned slightly, turned around and looked at his junior brother who was stubborn and unwilling to listen to advice, and felt annoyed for no reason.
He pinched his fingertips hard and felt a dull pain on the wound on his chest. His breathing paused for a moment, and then he suddenly thought of something and his brows relaxed slightly.
夜裏客棧多有風險，他如今受了重傷，撐到現在已經是強弩之末，夜裏情況還不知會如何呢？有師弟照看着，風險應該也會小一些。
于是他朝着師弟點了點頭，平平淡淡的眼神中似乎看不出一絲異樣，“你要看着就看着吧，不過只有一點，不準再吓唬人了。”
說完又看了眼那躺在床上還不肯閉眼的女子，語氣變得稍微平靜緩和了些，“姑娘放心睡吧，有我跟師弟二人看着，夜裏不會有什麽危險的。”
說罷也也又想面前的桌椅，直接拉開那張椅子然後坐了下去，屋內只點了一盞燭燈，還有先前店小二送過來的熱水，兩人随意清理了一下身上的傷口，動作很輕，不過片刻便将身上的傷口清理幹淨了。
夜色漸漸有些深了。
屋內光線昏暗，桌上的那盞燭燈也越燃越淺。
趙修言一開始有些睡不着，被對面的呼吸聲吵得有些心煩，他擡眸瞥了一眼對面不知何時就睡過去了的師弟。
一開始是撐着腦袋的，後來幹脆整個腦袋都趴在了桌上，睡相格外不雅。
簡直是一言難盡。
趙修言心中嫌棄，幹脆擡手拿起那屏風上的外衫扔了過去，直接将人整個兜頭蓋住，做完這一切後，目光又不自覺落在了床榻睡得有些不太安穩的女子身上。
心中緩緩浮現一個疑問，為什麽她會在這裏呢？還淪落到這種地步？
倘若沒有遇到他們，那今日的情形簡直難以想象，想到方才發生的那些事情……
想到那些事情，趙修言的眉頭就沒有松開過，長眉輕蹙着，溫潤如玉的眉眼間隐隐環繞着一絲似有若無的陰郁之氣，那雙清明溫和的眼裏也漸漸浮現了一絲冷意。
他手中的杯子也不自覺捏緊了，微微泛白的指尖捏着杯口，等到他情緒終于平複下來的時候，眉頭這才松了松，然後輕吐出一口氣，算了，這些事情明日再問吧，總歸沒有什麽大事，好在他們遇見的很及時。
等到南嫣第二天醒來，一睜眼便看見面前一張放大的俊臉，那人還伸着手要來碰她的臉，好家夥，多好的機會啊！當即想都沒想，擡手就是一巴掌呼了過去。
這一巴掌結結實實的，打得那人偏過頭去，連那張豔麗灼人的白皙面容也瞬間浮現了一個深深的巴掌印子，一開始他還沒反應過來，就這麽直愣愣地僵住了。
等他緩過神後，下意識摸了一把發疼的面皮，然後就氣炸了，轉過頭來瞪着眼睛，惡狠狠地盯着她，咬牙切齒問：
“妖女，你為什麽又打我？”
南嫣其實也反應過來了，不過打了人總歸理虧，只能裝作比他更委屈、更驚恐的模樣往床後縮着，驚慌失措地用被子将自己裹緊，牙齒似乎都在打着顫，“你為什麽靠那麽近？你還摸我了，明明是你手腳不規矩，我被吓到了，才不小心打到你的……”
慕容拓臉龐微紅，急得語氣更兇了，“你胡說什麽啊，誰手腳不規矩，誰摸你了，你簡直就是強詞奪理！”
兩人争吵之際，原本坐在椅子上支着腦袋沉睡趙修言也終于被這動靜吵醒了。
他昨夜很晚才睡，身上傷口有些不适，再加上心緒煩亂不寧，所以一直到天快亮時才真正睡着，可清早醒來，一睜眼便看到自己那個師弟趴在床邊虎視眈眈對着人家姑娘，那情形怎麽看都像是在欺負人。
趙修言面色瞬間冷了下來，直接上前扯住師弟的衣領，将人一把拽了起來，冷聲訓斥道，“慕容拓，你在做什麽？”
慕容拓簡直被這兩人同仇敵忾的态度給氣死，差點沒把整口牙齒咬碎，他轉個身一把揮開師兄的手掌，扯着嗓子朝他喊，“師兄，你到底還是不是我師兄了，我能對她做什麽？明明是這女人在夢裏一直喊着要水、要喝水，我被她吵醒了，這才好心給她倒了一杯水來的，你們都把我當成什麽人了？”
“你以為我會對她做什麽？”
“還有，師兄你什麽時候變成這樣了？這麽護着她，還不分青紅皂白地就訓斥我，你是不是忘記了這女人是那個魔頭的妻子了，翩翩姐還在那個魔頭的手裏呢！”
聽到這話，趙修言表情微怔了下，似乎對自己誤會師弟的做法感到有些不自在，轉頭松開了手，然後低聲說了聲：
“抱歉，是我誤會了。”
南嫣好似也才反應過來，看到那人臉上的巴掌印，也有些不自在的，幹巴巴道了聲歉，“對不起，我不是故意的……”
但慕容拓這會兒正在氣頭上，根本沒有善罷甘休的意思，他容易嗎他？好心被人當做驢肝肺，那女人還扇了他一巴掌，這種情況他再忍下去的話，他還是那個肆意妄為的慕容家小少爺嗎？簡直氣極！
尤其是這女人，真是見了鬼了！
對着他的時候不是打就是罵，這才多長時間啊，就已經打了他好幾個巴掌了，可對着他師兄呢，就是溫柔小意，滿心依賴，這種情況，是個人都忍受不了了好嗎。
可這種情緒他不知道該怎麽排解，就直接對着一旁的南嫣氣勢洶洶道，“對不起就行了嗎？你都打了本少爺多少個巴掌了？”
“要我說，指不定你這女人就是故意的，故意來禍害本少爺，還有之前的消息也是你洩露的吧，否則那個魔頭不可能那麽快察覺的，而且追上來的時間那麽迅速。”
說到這裏的時候，慕容拓停頓了一下，然後愈發生氣，愈發覺得自己說得很有道理，連目光也變得懷疑起來，越想越覺得有可能，就一把抓住了她的手腕，開始追問起來，“你說，是不是你向那個魔……你夫君洩露消息的，所以他才會追來的那麽快？”
南嫣心想，這小子的腦袋不犯蠢的時候轉動得還挺迅速，誤打誤撞就猜對了一半，不過她是不可能承認的。
她轉過頭來，墨發松散披在肩頭，嫣紅的嘴唇被咬的留下了一道很明顯的紅印。
聽到這番話後，南嫣白皙臉龐也湧動着一股潮紅，胸口也在起伏着，很明顯是被他氣出來的，“你在胡說什麽啊，這樣做對我有什麽好處？”
南嫣牙齒發顫，一瞬間眼裏就泛起了絲絲水光，那雙眼眸既不甘又惱恨地盯着他，
“我好不容易才讓你們帶着那個女子離開，又怎麽會故意告訴夫君這些事情，若真是這樣，我一開始的時候又何必幫助你們？”
她是沒有直接透露消息，就是故意留下的馬腳比較多而已，所以才會在他們一離開的第二天，就莫名其妙地被抓人回來了。
看她這樣，慕容拓心中的火氣莫名就消了一大半了，還剩下一點點的氣惱跟煩悶，他心有不甘地嘴硬回怼道，“就算不是你洩露的消息，可跟你也脫不了幹系。你那個好夫君不僅抓走了翩翩姐，還打傷了我師兄，這是板上釘釘，鐵打的事實！”
最後他越想越覺得惱怒，一氣之下胡說道，“既然你現在在我們手裏，我們剛好可以用你去換翩翩姐，這樣才算徹底完事。”
聽到這話，南嫣眼眶瞬間紅了。
仿佛再也忍不住了，接二連三的打擊讓她終于忍不住落下淚來。
她下意識拿起身後的枕頭用力朝着那人扔了過去，眼尾浮現出絲絲縷縷的淚光，聲音輕顫道，“你們忘恩負義，卑鄙無恥。”
她屈辱望着眼前這人，身子氣得微微發抖，“你們還自诩名門正派，結果就是這樣恩将仇報的嗎？我不僅幫過你們，還幫你們救走了你師兄的未婚妻，可現在，你居然要拿我去換你的心上人，你簡直無恥！”
慕容拓被罵得臉龐微紅，瞬間惱羞成怒，抓着她手腕的力道更緊了些，“你胡說八道什麽呢？什麽心上人，那是我師兄的未婚妻，我拿你去交換怎麽了？”
“別忘了我們昨天也救了你一次，算是抵消了從前你對我們的幫助了吧。”
慕容拓咬牙盯着她，“昨天下午，倘若不是我們及時出現，你以為自己現在還有命活嗎？一個大小姐不好好待在家裏繡花看書，出來亂跑什麽？你以為自己是女俠啊？”
說到這裏的時候，南嫣表情僵硬了一瞬，面色瞬間蒼白了幾分，似乎想到了什麽令人傷心的事情，眼淚滴落的更快了。
“我……”
她張着嘴，卻一個字都說不出來。
“還有，你知道你那個好夫君這幾天對我們做的那些事情嗎？夫債妻還，你沒瞧見我師兄那面色慘白，到現在還一副要死不活的鬼樣子嗎？那都是你夫君打傷的！”
話說回來，你當着你師兄的面這麽诋毀你師兄，不怕他跟你斤斤計較啊？
南嫣聽着這話，目光下意識地就落到一旁的趙修言身上，看他面色蒼白，唇上也是毫無一絲血色，眉心微蹙着，也不知道在想些什麽？
目光和她對上的時候有一瞬怔愣。
然後眉頭松了松，朝她輕搖了搖頭，正要說話，“不用擔心，我沒事……”
結果話還沒說完，就被身旁的人又打斷了，慕容拓哼了兩聲。
說到這裏，其實心中早就已經沒什麽氣了，就是嘴上硬撐着不肯低頭而已。
“再說了，你那個好夫君到現在還一直派人追殺我們，反倒是我們不計前嫌救了你，又照顧你，到底是誰更無恥過分啊？更何況，你是魔教的妖女，我們是正道人士，本就互相對立，談什麽道義嘛？”
話說到最後，在師兄那冷冰冰的責怪的目光下，聲音越來越低。
尤其是看到眼前這個女人低着頭落淚的模樣，心中忽然又有些懊悔，莫名的煩躁，他也知道自己這次說的是有些過分了。
可是也不知道為什麽，只要一對上這個女人吧，情緒就很容易失控，尤其是看她區別對待師兄的時候。
再說了，他說的那些好像也沒說錯吧？
他們本就是立場對立的人啊。
慕容拓看着這人情緒低落的模樣，一種心煩意亂的情緒忽然就從心頭湧起了，他盯着人，心中猶豫着要不要跟人說聲對不起？
畢竟他是個男子，欺負女人這種事情實在太沒品了。
而且他居然又把人家又弄哭了，雖然不是故意的，但好像從初遇開始，他就一直不停地把人弄哭來着。
這種情況也真是離譜。
慕容拓面上又露出那種糾結煩躁的表情了，抓着頭，然後放開了一直捏着她腕骨不放的手掌，結果他剛放開手，對面的人便下意識地伸手牽住了他的袖子。
慕容拓有些怪異，低頭看她，看她微微擡起頭，面色蒼白得好似有些透明了，臉龐上還有淚水滴落，整個人都散發着一股柔弱可憐的氣息，慕容拓只覺得更窘了。
他張了張嘴，一句話都還沒說呢。
然後就聽到底下那人聲音輕啞地開口，“對不起，剛剛那一巴掌我不是故意的，你們救了我，是我忘恩負義，還打了你……”
“你說得對，我夫君做的事情……确實很過分，昨天要不是你們救我，我只怕早就沒命活着了，不是你們忘恩負義，明明是我不對，你們拿我去換你師兄的未婚妻吧……”
話剛說完，南嫣那滴眼淚便順着臉龐滑了下來，直接就落在了慕容拓的手指上。
慕容拓被燙的手指蜷縮了一下，下意識地就抽開了手，他這下也知道自己說的話實在是太過分了。
整個人窘迫尴尬至極，白皙的臉龐漲得微紅，覺得自己好像在仗勢欺人，還欺負的是這麽一個手無縛雞之力的弱女子。
心底莫名湧出一股心虛懊悔的情緒。
他真的沒想到她會說出這種話，其實這件事情他也就是嘴硬随口一說而已，根本不是真心想要這麽做的，可是現在，話已經說出口，而且這人似乎還當真了。
這讓慕容拓一時間都不知道該怎麽辦才好了。
他急得張了張嘴，又抓了抓頭發，卻發現自己一個字都說不出來，于是下意識地轉過頭，目光求救似的看向師兄。
趙修言則是不自覺地皺了皺眉，看他一眼，目光中隐隐露出一絲不愉。
尤其是看到對面的姑娘低着頭無聲落淚的模樣，頭一次覺得這個口無遮攔的師弟聒噪麻煩，真不該帶他一起出來的。
惡語如利刃，傷人于無形。
人在沖動易怒的時候确實是會口不擇言，但什麽話該說，什麽話不該說，難道這些自己都不知道嗎？
趙修言輕吐了口氣，從懷中摸了半天，才找到一塊還沾了一絲血跡的帕子，倒也不算太髒，正要替她擦拭眼淚，忽然間又想到什麽，動作停頓了下，就這麽遞了過去。
南嫣抿了抿唇，擡眸望了他一眼，眼裏似乎有些猶豫，但最終還是伸手接過了。
趙修言直接坐在了她對面，看着她，略微平淡的聲音裏透着些許真誠，“抱歉，我師弟說話向來不過腦子，他性子比較沖動易怒，一直都是有什麽說什麽，但其實心底沒有多少惡意，更不會真的拿你去做交換的。”
他說完這些又輕吐了口氣息，一如既往的平和溫潤。
“別擔心，你在玄蒼教的時候幫了我們，我們又救了你，如今算起來，這已經是我們的第四次見面了，我們應該也算是朋友了。”
他說着忽然朝南嫣輕笑了一下，笑容有些溫和，“你夫君是你夫君，你是你，我們還沒眼瞎到那種地步，更不會不分青紅皂白，将你夫君做的事情算到你頭上，別哭了。”
“這次的事情本就是我師弟口無遮攔，說了些亂七八糟的話惹你生氣，若是你還不高興的話，不如再踩他幾腳出出氣，他那樣的人雖然看着氣勢洶洶，但其實就是個紙老虎，一戳就癟的，最見不得女孩子哭了。”
聽到這話，一旁的師弟明顯有些難以置信，眼睛睜圓怒氣沖沖瞪着師兄，這還是他師兄，當着他的面揭他的老底！
而南嫣似乎也想到了那天踩他手指的事情了，大概是那人的憋屈的樣子太好笑了，讓她一個沒忍住，“撲哧”一聲就笑了出來。
笑完之後又有些懊惱，擡眸看了身旁站着的那人一眼，覺得自己好不容易的塑造的氣氛又被破壞了，真是麻煩。
倒是一旁站着的慕容拓有些羞惱，看着那人又哭又笑的樣子，轉過臉低低哼了一聲。
也不知道是生氣還是羞惱？總之那耳根子莫名有些紅了，真是，師兄說這些幹什麽，還嫌他不夠丢人嗎？
趙修言看她笑完之後又低着頭懊惱皺眉的樣子，這表情似乎格外的生動，臉上一時間也忍不住露出了些許笑意。
又看到她下巴上挂着的那顆晶瑩淚珠，欲落不落的，便下意識地伸手擦拭了一下。
也是這一下，讓南嫣表情一愣，下意識地擡頭，正好對上了趙修言此刻格外溫柔的眼神。
兩人的眼光就這麽直直對上，南嫣有些意外且不自在地瞧着他，眼裏除了窘迫跟為難之外似乎就沒有什麽別的情緒了。
倒是趙修言，望着那雙水潤的，仿佛含着一汪細密春水的眼眸，眸光微閃了下。
他別過臉，烏黑的眼睫細微顫動了下，心底好似有種說不出的異樣情緒。
兩人的距離其實隔得挺近，近到趙修言明顯能感受到她呼出的溫熱氣息停頓了一瞬，然後才慢慢平複下來。
他眼睫微垂着，那一瞬間，他也不知道自己是怎麽回事，心底湧出些柔軟的情緒，便下意識地就伸手了。
但他跟性子沖動的師弟不一樣，他不該做這種沖動且親密的事情的。
想到這些，趙修言又微不可察地擰了下眉，似乎對自己莫名其妙的舉動有些無奈。
看着這人這樣怪異的眼神，
南嫣表情微頓了下，面上露出些許不自在的神色，然後将那只帕子匆匆塞進了他手心裏，低着頭說了句，“謝謝。”
趙修言也感覺到了自己的舉動有些過于親近了，他的手還有些尴尬的舉在半空中。
那只帕子就放在他的手心，上頭還殘留着一些綿軟濕意，那是她的淚水。
趙修言沉默的将帕子收了回來，目光不着痕跡地打量她一眼，确定她沒有抵觸後，這才面色平靜地“嗯”了一聲。
随後又岔開話題，若無其事地問了一句，“對了，我們還不知道，你昨天為什麽會離開玄蒼教，且淪落到那種任人欺負的地步，你夫君……沒有讓人守着你嗎？”
南嫣心想，守肯定是守着了，就是她趁人不注意的時候，自己離開了，要不然也沒那麽容易遇見你們倆了。
不過這話肯定是不能說的。
南嫣聽到他問的話後，面色微微有些發僵，然後轉過臉，幹巴巴地随意解釋了一句，“我只是下山來找夫君，一不小心走失了而已，你們也知道的，我從前一直待在教中，平日裏很少出門，就連這山下也沒怎麽出來過，所以走着走着一不小心就迷失了方向，所以才差點被人……”
“昨天謝謝你們，要不是你們救我，我可能早就……”
後面的話她沒有說出來，但那樣的結局很明顯大家都心知肚明。
于是一旁的慕容拓低哼了聲，語調有種怪異的緩和，大概是在服軟，“你知道危險還敢到處亂跑，你以為這江湖上是好混的嗎？是過家家嗎？那樣的惡人在這世上還不知有多少呢？”
“你自己一個人偷跑出來了，你家那個魔頭夫君就不擔心你嗎？”
南嫣聽到這話的時候情緒明顯有些低落，微微捏緊了手指，指尖被掐到有些泛白。
她抿着嘴唇沒有說話。
慕容拓就以為這人還在生悶氣，不肯搭理自己，于是哼了一聲，低頭也不知道叨咕了一句什麽“小氣鬼”，轉過身去也不肯搭理她了。
However, Zhao Xiuyan, who was sitting opposite her, was more attentive. He seemed to have noticed something. The tone of her voice was a little strange when she spoke, and her expression was not right, not as happy and intimate as usual. Although he didn't know what happened during this period, it should not be something good.
Especially seeing her depressed expression, Zhao Xiuyan lowered his head slightly. Since she refused to tell the truth, he felt embarrassed to ask any more questions.
Just thinking of her identity, Zhao Xiuyan couldn't help but frowned slightly. Since she was Yu Liuyun's wife, would she have to return to Xuancang Sect sooner or later?
…
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room had finally calmed down a lot, Nan Yan finally climbed up from the bed.
She had been frightened yesterday and slept with her clothes on at night. Naturally, she washed up quickly in the morning. Moreover, the men and women who roamed the world were naturally not as particular about etiquette as the nobles. Nan Yan knew the current situation and naturally would not insist on living such a refined life. She would just do whatever was convenient for her, just like these two people.
Zhao Xiuyan went downstairs to get some food. The two of them originally planned to send her back to Xuancang Sect. Nan Yan thought to herself, if they really let them send her back, then she would have wasted a whole day's hard work.
This won't do. We have to find a way to get away with it.
Maybe someone brought a pillow to me because I was sleepy.
Just at this moment, there was a chaotic noise coming from downstairs. Nan Yan saw the group of people besieging through the crack in the door. It was obviously the people from the Xuan Cang Sect who were chasing them again.
A group of people surrounded Zhao Xiuyan below, and another group of people rushed directly towards the second floor.
When they saw Murong Tuo in the house, they naturally picked up their knives and started hacking. These people might be lower-level subordinates in the sect. They had never seen Nan Yan's appearance. When they saw another woman standing in the house, they immediately thought she was an accomplice of these two men.
When the knife came down, not only Nan Yan was stunned, but even Murong Tuo beside her was dumbfounded.
He gritted his teeth and rushed over almost subconsciously, holding the person and rolling on the ground, staring at her with his black eyes, "What's wrong with you? Don't you know how to hide? And, aren't you the leader's wife? How dare these people kill you?"
Nan Yan pursed her lips, and immediately showed a look of wanting to say something but hesitating, with a hint of tears in her eyes, "I..."
Unfortunately, the situation was so critical that she couldn't even finish her words. Murong Tuo held her and rolled on the ground again to avoid the man's knife. Then he pulled her up and jumped down from the second-floor window with her.
"Brother, I will lead those people away."
He glanced at his senior brother with cold eyes, and after confirming that his senior brother should be able to deal with the remaining people alone, he glanced at the woman in his arms who was unable to fight back.
I thought that if this man stayed here, there would be no other possibility except being stabbed.
So he didn't hesitate and directly dragged his people towards the woods on the right, with a group of pursuers following behind him.
