Accidental Puppet
Back to the dormitory.
The scene in front of him was greatly beyond Xiao Shu's expectations.
The empty door, the broken glass, the Yu Xue fell in front of the door, and the chaotic footprints on the roof all told him that something was wrong.
A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, whitening the entire Lingwan. The night wind was accompanied by drizzle and fell, and the dull thunder sounded. This was the first rain in early spring, but it was colder than ice and snow.
Who is it?
Xiao Shu frowned and thought carefully. The rain dripped along his long dripping. Could it be that the other party even calculated Mo Qian's action route tonight to attract his attention, or whether Mo Qian was also theirs, and his remarks just now were just lying to deceive himself?
The money rented in the dormitory was paid by Mo Qiunian, so it was naturally him who was named. Therefore, the other party pointed his finger at the freshman who had just passed the assessment and did not choose to attack him. Perhaps because of his current identity, he deliberately led him away. A newborn disappeared for no reason and his life and death were unknown. Perhaps Lingwan would pay attention to it, but if he really couldn't find it, it would be left alone in the end. But if something happened to a mentor, Lingwan wouldn't have stopped doing it so easily.
So far, all inferences are just speculations, and even the only evidence is lost tonight. The other party has not revealed any flaws at all. He even has the confidence to take Mo Qiunian away to warn himself not to meddle in other people's business. It is really...
"I really don't take me seriously." Xiao Shu bent his mouth and gently wiped away the rain from his face.
...
"I checked it. It's just a freshman student. I don't have a background. My only relative is Mo Ling'er."
Ye Ya wiped the gray sword in his hand with a piece of cloth, and said without raising his head. There was a man standing in front of him with a cracked mask on his face, but the mask was actually sewn on his face. There were two round and spiral blush on the pale mask, and the cracked corners of his mouth seemed to be a smile, which was hideous and terrifying.
Mo Qiunian couldn't say a word because he needed to close his mouth and bit the thread. As long as he dared to speak, if the thread took off, the long sword hanging on his head would fall straight down and pierce his head.
"Mo Qiunian, I have an impression of this name. Isn't this the child that Zhu has always complained about not being able to find? Instead, it fell into my hands. Do you want to sell him a favor and send this child?" The masked man stretched out his hand with a smile and stroked Mo Qiunian's cheek.
His pale hands were as cold as ice. He stroked his face. Mo Qiunian couldn't help but shake his whole body. Beads of sweat slid down his forehead, and his eyes were full of fear. He was sleeping well, but he didn't know that he would no longer be in the dormitory when he opened his eyes. Xiao Shu didn't know where he went, and neither of them in front of him recognized.
"What a good face, if it is made into a mask...haha."
The masked man gently wiped away the sweat beads from Mo Qiunian's face, stroked his cheek inch by inch, feeling the beating of every muscle nerve, and his tone was filled with fanaticism.
"His mission is in charge of our affairs, and I don't care about how you act. Don't make any mistakes in this matter, otherwise I will be the first to not let you go." Ye Ya sneered.
"Oh, why are you angry? I'm annoyed? Speaking of which, why didn't you even catch that little teacher? You have to go through a lot of trouble to lure him away. Even if you kill him, Lingwan couldn't find out that it was you and me." The masked man asked with a smile.
"I can't find out the details of that Xiao Shu. I don't want to touch him. I just give him a warning and let him shut up. Besides, where is Lingwan? With Qiu here, I should restrain you. Once he notices something is wrong, based on the relationship between the royal family and him, what do you think Qiu will do?"
Ye Ya wiping Jian's hand paused slightly. He didn't want Qiu to notice it now. The old man was not a soft persimmon, otherwise they wouldn't have to do this sneaky.
"With his actions, I think I will follow the truth and find out everything to eliminate future troubles. It will be troublesome at that time." The masked man still had no sense of tension in his tone, as if he was just talking about what to eat tonight.
"Just know, don't overdo it. If the child was picked up that night, then kill it. If it was Xiao Shu, I would just give him a warning. He is Lingwan's teacher and there is Qiu behind him. Don't touch him casually. But I was quite surprised. Those two children really hid everyone." Ye Ya said expressionlessly.
"I said that it was my proud work. It took a long time, and no one could recognize it except me." The masked man said with a smile, his voice sometimes male and female, sometimes fine and sometimes thick, and he could not tell his gender at all.
Ye Ya smiled by default, stood up, waved the long sword in his hand towards the thin filament. The long sword made by Yalan Lei Steel can be regarded as the sharpest sword in the world, perfectly balancing hardness and toughness, and even steel can be easily cut off.
Mo Qiunian closed his eyes in despair. When he came down with this sword, he thought he would definitely die. Whether it was cutting directly on his body or cutting off the thin silk in front of him, the result was the same.
Mo Qiunian didn't dare to open his eyes. He was afraid that he would see Lintou's sword as soon as he opened his eyes. What appeared in his mind was the faces of all the people who died tragically in the Mo family, full of blood and a look of colorlessness, as if he was asking himself, why didn't he avenge them? Why is it so useless?
I have just passed the assessment, but I have just entered Lingwan. Is it over after taking the first step?
Mo Qiunian kept questioning himself in his heart. He hoped that his sister would suddenly appear to save him at this time, and hoped that Xiao Shu could block the sword, but no, the sword wind blowing his face told him that there was no miracle in this world.
"What are you doing so anxious? It's not easy to deal with if you kill him here. Besides, I don't plan to throw away this face just like that. Go back and leave this child to me to deal with."
Just as the sword edge was almost about to touch the thin wire, the masked man reached out to block the two. With a slight difference, the extremely sharp Yalan Lei steel sword might even slash his hand, but the sword stopped steadily.
"I warn you not to put your personal hobbies and emotions in. Once you fail, don't say that I won't let you go, can he spare you?" Ye Ya's smile gradually faded away, and his words were filled with cold murderous intent.
"I have a sense of justice." The masked man said with a smile, bent his fingers and gently pressed down the sword.
"You should do it yourself." Ye Ya said coldly, retracting the sword back into the scabbard, and turning around and leaving.
"Oh, I'm so angry today. I've been a guard for five years, little brother, don't you? This person has a very bad temper. Compared to him, I'm much gentler."
The masked man turned around and looked at Mo Qiunian. Although his tone was gentle, his face was too terrifying. Mo Qiunian felt a chill all over.
"Oh, you're so tired. I'll take it down for you. If your face is distorted, it will be bad." The masked man reached out and took out the thin silk biting from Mo Qiunian's mouth and tied it to the chair beside him.
"You... who are you? Why do you kill me?" Mo Qiunian is still confused until now. He obviously did nothing and didn't know these two people. Why did he kill himself for no reason?
"It's so pitiful, but I still can't figure it out. Just how can you escape from Zhu's hand and cross the Beiye Kingdom to Lingwan. If it weren't for this, you could indeed live in Lingwan safely. Whether it's avenging or hiding it in the future, it has nothing to do with me anyway." The masked man seemed to be tired of standing, sitting on a chair, constantly playing with the thin line with a long sword hanging on it.
"You...you killed my parents?" Mo Qiunian finally understood. That Zhu was the culprit of killing all the Mo family, and he also had a close relationship with the person in front of him.
"Of course not. I didn't kill your parents. If you want to take revenge, you will go to Zhu. Unfortunately, you probably don't have that chance. If it were normal, maybe I would help you. What a pity, you have heard what he had just said. I don't want to test the sharpness of the Yalan Lei steel sword in person." The masked man said with a smile.
"Then why don't you let him kill me directly?" Mo Qiunian was angry now, and forgot to be afraid for a moment. The emotions that were aroused once again made him red.
"How can that be? I don't want to dirty this place. It will take a long time to just dissipate the smell of blood. Besides, your face is pretty good, and it's broken. I'm going to feel distressed for a long time." The masked man took out an exquisite knife from his sleeve. The bright knife was covered with circles of patterns, and it looked extremely sharp.
The cold blade gently outlined along Mo Qiunian's cheek. The light force did not cut through the skin, but instead made Mo Qiunian feel itchy on her face. But the fanaticism in the eyes of the person in front of her made Mo Qiunian shudder. Could it be that this person wanted to cut off his face and make it into a mask?
"Don't be afraid, what I don't like the most is the fearful face. You have to be happier, just smile, accept your incompetence with peace of mind, accept all this, and it will be much easier." The masked man said softly, as if he was comforting, and as if he was mocking.
Mo Qiunian was about to speak when he suddenly stabbed it on his left arm until there was no handle, and blood splattered on the pale and terrifying face.
The sudden knife made Mo Qiunian's brain not have time to react. Before he felt the pain, the masked man pulled the knife out and stuck out his tongue and licked the blood on the knife and said, "Why do you have to look like you are suffering and revenge? It's not me who killed your parents, but I just saved you. You should thank me. Besides, I don't want much, it's just your face. How about you laugh?"
"ah……"
The pain finally came, swallowing the fear and anger in his heart, making his expression become ferocious. Everything he said turned into a scream, a heart-wrenching scream when he reached his mouth.
