Chapter 128(1/2)
Gu Lingxiao saw him again, and naturally he was referring to Chen Xue who had stabbed him before.
He risked his life and came back with the corner of Chen Xue's clothes all the way, probably because Chen Xue wore the clothes of their Northern Territory Military Camp.
Unlike other clothes, the sleeves of soldiers in the Northern Region have patterns embroidered on their sleeves. The more elite the patterns on the sleeves of the army, the more refined the patterns. Some troops will embroider numbers on their sleeves, symbolizing their personal identity.
By chance, Gu Lingxiao's ripped off clothes was embroidered with the number of an army in the Northern Region. Qin Rong quickly found the corresponding person through the embroidery patterns and numbers, but the man had already been in the woods not far from the military camp. He died for a long time, and it was obviously a knife that he had slapped his neck.
At that time, time was urgent, and in order to get rid of the secret guards who were surveillance in the dark, Xueer had to go out with Gu Lingxiao to fight, so she could only make the worst move and get mixed up in the team.
She was careless. She thought she had figured out the Northern Territory Military Camp during this period, but she didn't expect that there was still the word "embroidered pattern numbers" in the military camp, which led everyone's eyes into the military camp.
Soon, Qin Rong ordered a thorough investigation of everyone in the military camp, and according to the clues left by Gu Lingxiao, focus on the tall man with injuries on his arm. Xueer returned to the tent in silence. She rolled up her sleeves and stared at the scars on her arm, listening to the movements outside for a long time.
Probably I can't hide it anymore.
What should she do?
After scanning Xiaodai who was sleeping on the couch, Xueer reached out and pressed the outline of her face, raised her neck and slowly let out a breath of cold air.
Late at night that day, Xiaodai, who had been sick, suddenly went crazy. Xueer was pushed to the ground by her when she stopped her, and hit the candlestick shelf beside her. When Yingying got the news, there was a big fire outside and everyone was putting on the fire. She put on her clothes and grabbed someone and asked, "Where is the person in the tent?"
"People?" The man was stunned and began to shout, "It's bad, have any of you going in to save the people in the tent!"
As he was talking, someone was coughing and carrying someone out of the tent. Yingying leaned closer and found that it was Xiaodai. Yingying frowned and asked, "Where is Xue'er?"
Xiaodai was awake now. She was frightened and kept crying again. She begged for help and went to catch Yingying: "Xue'er was pressed by the cabinet to save me. I can't move it. It's because I'm not good. The lady must rescue her."
Who doesn’t want to save him? It’s just that the fire spread too fast, and the people who went in to save Xueer were not out for a long time, and everyone no longer dared to take risks.
Yingying stood up stiffly, and someone rushed to stop him when he saw this, "Grandma, someone has already gone in to save Xue'er, you must not go in!"
Yingying held Xiaodai's hand tightly, and her thoughts surged into her heart, and her voice was awkward: "I know."
The system said that before the end of her original life, she will not die anyway, but if she cannot die, it does not mean that she will not be injured. Just like Qin Rong broke her arm in her previous life, and it will be broken if it is broken, and it is impossible to recover as before.
[Host, please think about it, this is fire.] The system noticed Yingying's hesitation and spoke to remind her.
No matter how painful a knife wound is, it can be healed. Even if it is not good, it will at most be a slender scar. Fire can swallow too many things. Yingying has witnessed a woman disfigured by fire before.
Looking at the fire in the tent, she was anxiously waiting for the rescuers to come out. Xiaodai was charred all over and was crying helplessly begging Yingying.
"Please, my master, must rescue Xue'er."
"It's because I'm not good, it's because I'm not good, it's because I'm crazy and having a nightmare. I pushed her to the ground and made her hit the candlestick. She was comforting me just now and asked me to come out first, but her arm was pressed by the cabinet, so I must be very scared."
"master……"
Yingying's eyes flashed slightly, and she let Xiaodai hold her cold palm. Xiaodai stuttered with tears in her eyes: "If Xueer dies because of me, I will have a nightmare for the rest of my life."
As she said that, she stood up staggeringly, as if she wanted to re-enter the fire.
Yingying looked at Xiaodai's movements very seriously and saw Qin Rong walking towards her when she heard the sound. She grabbed Xiaodai's hand and said, "Don't go."
Xiaodai was stunned and looked at her slowly with tears in her eyes.
Looking at the tent that was about to be swallowed by the fire, Yingying repeated the words: "I'll go."
"Don't worry, I won't leave her alone no matter what."
Qin Rong noticed something wrong with Yingying from afar and frowned slightly. When Yingying looked at him, he seemed to have guessed something, and immediately ordered coldly: "Stop the Queen!"
Yingying let go of Xiaodai's hand before him and rushed into the fire with great speed.
She ran too fast and turned around too resolutely and simply. While Qin Rong changed her face, Xiaodai's legs softened and fell to the ground, staring at Yingying's figure and two tears rolled down.
【Don't worry, I will not leave her behind no matter what.】
Xiaodai's ears were still echoing Yingying's promise. She looked down at her fingers that were released by Yingying. Her voice was so light that only she could hear it-
"This time, I'm really going to fall into your hands."
“…”
God blessed Yingying, and as soon as she rushed into the fire, she saw two slightly injured soldiers carrying Xueer out of coma.
Under the thick smoke, Yingying's arm was clenched tightly. The tent collapsed the moment she was pulled out of the fire. Yingying looked up and saw Qin Rong's face.
No longer were the tender and tender eyes, at this time, Qin Rong's eyes were filled with fire and coldness. He held Yingying's thin wrist tightly and hugged the person into his arms. His voice was suppressed and extremely cold. He asked Yingying: "Do you want to die?"
Yingying knew that she could not die, but Qinrong didn't know.
Even if she didn't see how Qin Rong rushed into the fire with her desperately, it would be enough to make her feel sour and unable to control her feelings for Qin Rong. Yingying shook her head and said, "I don't want to die."
"I want to stay with you!"
Qin Rong closed her eyes and was hugged by Yingying. Even if he wanted to kill Yingying again in his previous life, this sentence full of murderous intent was also said to him gently and calmly. Yingying often thinks he is joking.
This was probably the first time he lost his temper in front of Yingying.
The lips warmed up, Yingying hugged his neck and kissed him, probably because she was scared. She kissed and bit Qin Rong's lips as if she was absorbing a sense of security. Qin Rong lowered her head slightly and responded to her. The panic and anger she had in the past was gradually calming down.
This is not a place of intimacy. When Yingying's emotions are calmed down, Qin Rong will pick him up.
He just didn't watch the person for a while, and unexpectedly, such a mess came out. He glanced at the tent that was still emitting thick smoke. His voice was chilling: "I'll settle the score with you when I go back."
Yingying weakly pulled his clothes and didn't dare to speak. She whispered: "I want to go and see Xiaodai and the others."
Yingying did not go deep into the fire and was not injured. Xiaodai and Xueer were seriously injured. At this moment, both of them had been sent to other tents for treatment. Qin Rong hugged her waist tightly and refused, "I am not sure."
If Yingying had given up before, she would have given up, but this time she was extremely firm: "I have to go."
She had a reason to have to go.
When Yingying rushed to the military doctor's tent, only Xueer and Xiaodai were empty in the tent.
Xue'er was still sleeping on the couch. Xiaodai was disguised and changed into clean clothes with her hair loose, and tidied up Xue'er's clothes with her back facing the door.
Judging from the back, Yingying couldn't tell whether the person in front of her was Xueer or Xiaodai.
Hearing the footsteps coming in, Xiaodai turned her head and looked at the door. When she saw Yingying, she was obviously stunned. She stopped the movement in her hand and stood up and asked, "Why is the Empress coming?"
Yingying walked towards Xiaodai step by step. She stopped in front of her and smiled slightly at her, lowered her eyes and looked at the person on the couch and said, "I can't worry about you."
Sitting in front of the couch, Yingying gently held Xue'er's hand and saw a large burn on her arm along the rolled-up sleeve. Her arm was injured when she was pressed by the cabinet. The same Xiaodai was also burned to her arm when she was moving the wardrobe. She has been bandaged by the doctor now.
"Will there be scars?" Yingying sighed and felt extremely distressed when she gently lifted the gauze on Xueer's wound.
Xiaodai stood beside her and watched quietly. As Yingying looked at Xueer's injuries and touched her cheeks, she couldn't help but say, "Empress, really cares about Xueer."
Yingying smiled and didn't take it seriously, "I care about you too."
Xiaodai bent her eyes with a smile, and the smile on Yingying's face disappeared instantly after leaving. She stared at the sleeping figure on the couch and said, "But I just want you to care about me."
It was already the middle of the night, and there was only the sound of soldiers patrolling outside the tent.
The candlelight in the tent shook slightly, and the person standing gently tore off a layer of film on his face and quickly put it on another face. If Yingying came in again at this moment, she would find that Xueer, who was sleeping, was standing intact and healthy. She leaned over and tore off the man's skin on the bed. Xueer, who was sleeping, quickly changed to Xiaodai's face.
"It's time to hide it after spending so much effort." The real Xueer murmured like this, pinching a black pill and stuffing it into the sleepy person's mouth.
Who could have thought of it?
In fact, the first person to be rescued was not Xiao Dai but Xue'er with a mask on her face. The person who was really trapped in the fire was Xiao Dai.
After all, it was a fire that could not be controlled by humans. Xueer was not so stupid that she put herself in danger to cover up the wounds of her arm. She didn't have the confidence that Yingying would save her desperately.
Thinking of Yingying, Xueer's face warmed up and smiled again, and her ears echoed with Yingying's words, "I won't leave her alone."
Unconsciously fiddling out the ring necklace worn on her heart, she sighed and didn't know who she was talking to: "I don't regret this trip to the Northern Region."
"She can always bring me endless surprises."
After years of hard work, Xueer's thoughts and methods are beyond the reach of ordinary people. She has become accustomed to planning and playing with people's hearts. This is the first time she has suffered consecutive misfortunes in a woman.
Her plan was too detailed, and she had already thought that if Yingying didn't plan to save her, she would continue to stay by her side with Xiaodai, pretend to be frightened and unconscious for a few days, and wake up and use the excuse of vague memory to avoid the flaws.
What a pity.
No, it should be said to be a surprise, Yingying actually saved 'her'.
The whimper in the room interrupted her thoughts. Xueer lowered her eyes and glanced at Xiaodai, whose face was flushed and began to have a fever. She kissed Jie Youyou on her neck: "You're lucky."
“…”
Yingying received news that Xiao Dai was sick at dawn.
Unexpectedly, when Xueer woke up, Xiaodai was asleep again. The reason given by the doctor was that she was too scared. After waking up, Xiaodai completely forgot the fire. She was confused and didn't remember how she begged Yingying to save people, and she didn't know how she was hurt.
"Grandma, do you think I have my brain burned?" Xiaodai felt aggrieved when she saw Yingying. She couldn't figure out why she woke up and had a sorry benefactor like Xueer.
Logically speaking, if such a big thing happened, she should have some memories, but she had no impression at all!
Yingying looked carefully at the injuries on her arm and asked with concern: "Then how do you feel now?"
Xiaodai always felt that when she woke up, her master became more gentle and considerate. She let Yingying check her injuries, frowned and said with a consolation: "It's just a headache, I feel weak all over. Oh, my arms hurt so much."
"I'll ask the doctor to come and give you some medicine again, and it won't hurt soon." Yingying stuffed her arm back into the quilt, and her voice was light and low.
In fact, she felt a little guilty.
There is a saying she dare not tell Xiaodai that her arm was injured too seriously by the fire, leaving a large scar.
The fire seemed to be some kind of sign. As Gu Lingxiao recovered from his injuries and did not go to the battlefield again, the Northern Region army began the curse of repeated defeats, as if he was caught in an evil spirit.
Soon, someone in the army began to spread the news, saying that the evil fire destroyed the fortune of the Northern Region. No matter how hard they fought to resist the Northern Region, they would definitely be defeated by Haowen Peace Sand.
