Chapter 397: Killing each other
After a long sleep, Wei Yue was the only one in the ruined temple when she woke up. The eyes staring into her were unfathomable, both examining and inferring.
Liang Huan didn't seem to notice, and looked past him curiously at the door: "Where are your companions?"
Wei Yue's eyebrows were cold, and she rarely explained patiently: "Weihuo hasn't returned all night. Dou Mu went to look for him.”
“Oh.”
Liang Huan responded calmly, withdrew his gaze, and stopped caring about other things. He tidied up his appearance first, then packed his baggage, ready to leave at any time.
Wei Yue's eyes did not leave her for a moment, always watching her every move, her brows furrowed.
Liang Huan packed the dry biscuits and barely ate two bites.
“Aren’t you curious where Wei Huo went?” Wei Yue squatted in front of her.
Liang Han raised his eyebrows in confusion, his eyes innocent: "Why should I be curious?"
Wei Yue's cold eyes burned: "Why did you deliberately pretend to be close to me in front of them?"
Liang Huan didn't think Wei Yue was a fool, on the contrary, he was very alert.
Although she did not speak or act boldly or excessively yesterday, the ambiguity hidden in the details would only make people more misunderstood.
During the first two days and two nights alone, they were observing each other.
It’s not surprising that he can see through her pretense.
Liang Huan blinked and didn't quite understand: "Fake? Compared to them, I am indeed more familiar with you, so how can it be fake?"
Wei Yue reached out and pinched her neck, as cold as a star. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Liang Huan did not resist: "Shouldn't I be afraid of them?"
Wei Yue's eyes deepened.
Liang Huan smiled at him needlessly: "Weiyue, you are different from them. I believe in you, but not them."
The expression on her face was extremely serious.
The moment their eyes touched, Wei Yue's heart skipped a beat. While she hurriedly moved her eyes away, her hands unconsciously relaxed.
"Danger - Yue."
Someone hurriedly stepped in at the door. Suddenly seeing the close posture of the two people, he paused and swallowed what he had not finished.
Wei Yue dropped her hand, stood up and looked at Doumu. She didn't intend to explain, but it would only get darker and darker.
"Still no one?"
Dou Mu stood at the door, glanced at the woman sitting with her head bowed, and sighed to Wei Yue: "At first I thought I met officers and soldiers, but when I went out to explore, I didn't find anyone. I saw no signs of fighting, so I don’t know what happened to him.”
After a moment of silence, Wei Yue said, “We can’t wait any longer.”
Dou Mu nodded helplessly: “We don’t either. We can only leave a mark and wait for him at the roadside."
Hearing what they said, Liang Huan picked up the bag and went to the door.
Wei Yue removed all traces they left here, while Dou Mu looked around the ruined temple, preparing to find a hidden place to leave a mark.
Liang Han stepped out of the threshold, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths.
It rained a little in the middle of the night last night, and the air is particularly fresh today.
Suddenly, Doumu seemed to have discovered something, and let out a low cry of surprise.
Liang Huan looked over and saw Doumu squatting on the ground, pointing to somewhere on the ground, and said to Wei Yue: "These are Wei Huo's footprints. He came back."
Upon hearing this, Wei Yue looked where he pointed. The two looked at each other and followed the traces.
After a while, Dou Mu’s voice sounded in the back hall of the ruined temple.
Wei Yue glanced at Liang Han at the door and followed Dou Mu into the back hall.
Liang Huan sighed slightly and had no choice but to follow.
In the dim back hall, under a pile of tattered kneeling mats, a naked male corpse was exposed. There were no wounds on his body, only his skin was blue and his lips were black. He was obviously poisoned. .
The two people standing in front of the corpse were stunned for a long time, and turned around when they heard the footsteps.
At this moment, Dou Mu suddenly woke up, drew out his long sword and put it directly on Liang Han's neck.
“Did you do it?”
Wei Yue looked over, her emotions difficult to distinguish, and she pursed her lips and said nothing.
Liang Huan confessed: "Yes, I killed the person." Hearing her admission, Doumu stared with red eyes, wishing to cut her into pieces immediately.
“You witch!”
Liang Huan ignored Dou Mu and looked at Wei Yue: “He wants to use force on me while you are sleeping, shouldn’t I? Self-rescue? "
" Self-rescue? Don't think I can't tell, you are trying your best to lure him away! "
"I seduced him? Huan smiled at the corner of her mouth, took out the dry biscuits left last night from the bag and threw them over: "I ask you who brought these dry biscuits back? Why did he go to explore the way during eating time? And why did he come back? You didn’t notice at all?”
Weiyue's eyes fell on the dry biscuits that fell on the ground.
He bent down to pick it up, broke off a small piece and handed it to Doumu.
Doumu's eyes flashed: "So what? You are -"
Liang Huan glanced at him coldly: "I am a prisoner, so who of you If you want to bully me, I have to endure it silently? You can't protect yourself or resist, right?"
She pursed her lips, nodded with a smile, and looked at the silent person with a faint look. : "I said you are different from them, but am I deceiving you?"
Weiyue looked at the cake in her hand and said nothing.
Doumu said in a fierce tone: "Don't listen to this witch, or I won't kill you immediately!"
After that, he raised the sword in his hand and was about to strike down.
The moment the cold blade fell, there was a clang and it was narrowly deflected by another sword.
The sharp sound pierced the eardrums, and the murderous aura shook the hair on Liang Han's forehead.
She clenched her fists, broke into a cold sweat, and turned pale.
Doumu stared at Weiyue, his chest heaving violently: "Why did you stop me? Are you really so obsessed with this witch that you lost your mind?"
Weiyue's pupils darkened slightly, his expression Calmly: "It's not me who lost consciousness, but you. Have you forgotten our mission on this trip? It is to bring her back."
Dou Mu looked at him, then at Liang Huan, cold sneered.
"Wei Yue, I think you are the one who really forgot about the mission. What the master said before leaving was that if you want to see someone alive or dead, you will see their corpse. What does this mean? Do you really not understand? ”
"If you are still our brother, get out of my way! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying that, he raised his sword and attacked again.
Liang Huan stood up straight and did not dodge.
Wei Yue gritted her teeth: "Doumu, don't be impulsive!"
Doumu couldn't listen at all.
Liang Wan quietly touched his lower back, grabbed a handful of chalk (è) and threw it into Doumu's eyes.
The edge of Doumu's sword tilted and he screamed in pain, waving the sword like crazy and yelling viciously.
"Wei Yue, I want to kill you, a traitor, for how dare you team up with this witch to harm me!"
Wei Yue was furious and shouted at Liang Huan: "Why are you plotting against him!"
Although Dou Mu can't see, his hearing is sensitive, and his hands are ruthless. He will only be at a disadvantage if he avoids blindly. Wei Yue is forced into a blind corner and has no choice but to fight.
Liang Huan took out the wooden hairpin from his waist, saw the right moment, and stabbed Dou Mu in the back.
Dou Mu reacted very quickly, raised his sword and slashed at Liang Huan. Wei Yue jumped between the two of them and blocked with her sword. Dou Mu failed to hit the target, so he turned around and struck again.
Wei Yue wanted to grab Doumu's sword with one hand, and blocked it with the other. The two kept pulling at each other.
At this moment, Liang Huan suddenly reached out his hand from behind Wu Weiyue, and stabbed Doumu's neck with the poisonous wooden hairpin.
Amidst the screams, blood spurted out, and Doumu fell over, barely twitching twice before dying.
Weiyue stared blankly, then slowly turned around.
Liang Huan grabbed his arm with a nervous look on his face and was so scared that he almost cried.
"Are you okay?"
The voice was trembling.
Wei Yue's blood-spattered face looked extremely terrifying. He grabbed her neck and asked, "Why did you kill him?"
