Chapter 170 After the old house caught fire (20)
Chu Xiang was not sure if she was hallucinating. She pinched her thigh and could feel the pain. The coldness of the raindrops hitting her face and the heat of the firelight on her skin were both so real. .
"He must be killed!"
The crowd screamed one after another, and their anger seemed to have condensed into a fiery snake, eager to attack the man on top of the castle overwhelmingly.
The people crowded in the front row were banging against the door, and the heavy door became loose after being hit again and again. Then they raised their heads and looked up. The man standing there had a casual and elegant posture, which was completely different from those shouting below. different.
Chu Xiang grabbed one of them and asked: "What are you doing?"
The man didn't even think there was anything wrong with Chu Xiang who suddenly appeared here, and replied: "What else can we do? We are going to burn that devil!"
"Devil?"
"The devil Eugene Fox, he tortured people and ate people's hearts. He also started the current war. He forced the armies of neighboring countries to attack us. He dedicated his soul to hell. , is the devil who provokes the war of death. Countless people have died under his hands. He should be punished and thrown into hell forever.”
In the rainy night, everything was blurry, and the face of the blond man on the castle was also obscured by the wind and rain. However, the moment he heard his name, Chu Xiang could no longer hold back and hurriedly rushed into the crowd. middle.
"Eugene!"
The sound of the gate collapsing covered up her shouts. She was afraid of falling behind, so she squeezed forward desperately in the huge crowd. The stairs to the castle were illuminated by the firelight, and she stepped on the steps that were wet with water. On the stairs, I was squeezed back and forth by the crowd again. I missed my step several times and hit the stone wall.
Chu Xiang ignored the pain of being knocked out of her body. She was surrounded by the powerful anger and murderous intention of everyone, and she had the illusion that it was difficult to breathe in the hot fire.
The already soaked dress became even dirtier with mud, and the stains on her face made it impossible to see her original clean and delicate appearance.
"Devil! Kill the devil!"
The shouts were getting closer and closer, ringing through the rainy night and echoing in the air, like the death knell sounded by the god of death.
So what if there is a Piercing King that is rumored to kill his enemies?
He has no subordinates anymore. He is the only one in this castle. There is no king of the people, but he is just a piece of fish to be slaughtered.
And the lonely king let go of his hand, the wine glass fell, and the glass fragments and the red liquid fell into the dirty rain on the ground. He picked up the silver-white long sword and faced the door slowly, letting the splashing rain and mist soak in. His long golden hair and red and white robes fluttered with the wanton night wind.
"Devil! Today is the day you die!"
A strand of golden hair and wind and rain adorned the side of his face. The lonely king slowly raised his blue eyes, which should have been as beautiful as the sky. Now in the dark night, it just seems to be a terrifying deep sea, without a trace of light, gloomy and gloomy.
But the smile on his face has not disappeared. He is still joking about the foreseeable fate. For him, "death" seems to be just the end of a game.
"He must be killed!"
The shouts of the crowd surged forward. What came before those ignorant people was the burning fire, and what appeared together with the fire was the girl nervously calling his name.
"Eugene!"
The girl appeared in embarrassment and barefoot. She was very thin. It was hard to imagine that she could rush all the way to the front among the group of strong men, but she unexpectedly came one step ahead of them. When the young man with blond hair and blue eyes looked at such a dirty girl, a ridiculous thought came to his mind——
If they had not met on such an occasion, he would have wanted to ask this wizened woman if she was willing to wear the crown he won in the arena?
Chu Xiang met his gaze and ran over without hesitation, "Let's run away together!"
She went to grab his hand, but a hand came through the wind and rain and grabbed her arm first.
"Xiangxiang!"
Chu Xiang opened his eyes and breathed rapidly.
Eugene picked her up, wiped away the water on her face, and held her face. He rarely lost his usual pretense of elegance and calmness, and his blue eyes locked tightly on her face, refusing to miss it. Any change in her expression.
"Xiangxiang, I'm here." Eugene pressed her forehead against hers, his throat tightened and his jawline tightened, "Xiangxiang, look at me."
Chu Xiang was being surrounded by a familiar and safe atmosphere. Her consciousness slowly returned, and her empty eyes gradually gained focus. Then, there was his shadow in her eyes.
This was on the shore of the lake. She was soaked all over, and her throat was in pain because she had choked on the water.
"Eugene..."
"It's me." Eugene breathed a sigh of relief. His eyes, as dark as the deep sea, gradually faded away from the gloom and turned into bright colors as clear as the sky. He held her in his arms and gently touched her with one hand. The back of his head said softly: "It's okay, Xiangxiang, it's okay."
Ovid hid in the corner and watched the scene outside, hugging his body and shivering.
No one would have thought that Chu Xiang would fall into the water. At the moment when the sound of falling into the water was heard, Eugene jumped into the water and fished him out.
Although this change only happened in a few seconds, Chu Xiang was obviously affected by the lake. As for how deep the impact was, no one could guess.
The only thing Ovid can be sure of is that if something happens to Chu Xiang, he will probably suffer the same fate.
Judging from Eugene's performance, it seems that he did not just play a love game on a whim with Chu Xiang as others speculated.
Ovid couldn't help but gnaw his nails, feeling really unbelievable. Could it be that the old tree of Eugene is really blooming?
Eugene carried Chu Xiang back to the apartment, but he went back to his room. Warm water had been put in the bathtub in the bathroom, and Chu Xiang was taken off his clothes and soaked in the water.
Then she asked Eugene to follow her naked into the bathtub. She crossed her arms and said, "I've already fallen into the water. You're not still thinking about this, are you?"
Eugene pulled the girl who was trying to hide on the other side into his arms and circled him, "You fell into the water and are not feeling well. I just want to help you take a bath and nothing else."
Chu Xiang said: "I can wash it myself."
"I can help you wash more cleanly." Eugene placed a soft kiss on her shoulder, "Xiangxiang, I'm scared, please let me stay with you more, okay?"
