Jiang Huai followed and looked around the whole room, unable to see anything wrong.
"Master, the house has been tidied up. Not even a woman's hair is visible."
Yu Zhi moved his eyes away from the wall. There was wallpaper on the wall and he couldn't see anything.
"Master, how about we go back?"
The man said nothing, and the tall figure walked to the window.
"Miss Xu is back anyway. Even if we know where she has lived in the past three years..." It doesn't mean much, right?
They had already traveled to several places, and Jiang Huai really couldn't bear to see his hopes fail again and again.
"Jiang Huai, you go out first."
"yes."
Yu Zhi leaned against the window. The room faced the sun and looked out. The scenery of the sky blended into his eyes. He opened the window and rested his arms on the window sill.
He smoked, letting the strong smell of smoke tear through his heart, liver, spleen and lungs. He imagined how Xu Yanqing had gone through the past three years.
Is life going well or not?
Yu Zhi finished smoking a cigarette and when he straightened up, he saw something hanging outside the window.
He looked carefully and saw that it was a piece of wood.
Yu Zhi reached out and forcibly pulled the piece of wood from the outer wall, with a nail on it.
When Zong Zang left Tokugawa City, all traces were cleaned up, the windows were sealed, and the boards that sealed Xu Yanqing were forcibly removed piece by piece.
The nails were hard enough and the men moved so quickly that no one noticed that such a small piece was missing.
Yu Zhi held it in his hand, the nail still glowing coldly.
This is not some remnant of decoration.
His gaze became sharp, and he scanned the room inch by inch, missing nothing.
He had seen so many rooms just now, why did he stay here only?
Yu Zhi knew what the problem was. There was wallpaper in the room, but it was obvious that the pattern and color of the wallpaper on one wall were very abrupt and did not match the style of the entire bedroom.
It seems that he just wants to cover up something.
Yu Zhi walked over quickly and saw that the wallpaper was very perfunctory and not firmly attached to the wall.
He touched the gap in the corner of the wall with his fingers, pulled lightly, and one corner was torn open.
He pulled it aside forcefully...
Yu Zhi was unprepared and was so close. When his name appeared in his eyes, he let go of his hand and took two big steps back.
His eyes were filled with shock, and it felt as if his whole body was tightly bound by a steel nail, pricking the ground from head to toe!
stubborn.
These two words are written all over the wall.
There are stroke after stroke, each stroke is done neatly, and sometimes when the mentality breaks down, the strokes are carved crookedly, but each stroke is carved with special force, as if they want to dig through the wall.
Yuzhi's breathing became tighter and tighter, as if he couldn't take a breath.
Those words suddenly formed a dense net, covering his heart, tightening it tighter and tighter, leaving traces of bloody flesh.
He took two steps forward and put his fingers on it.
His fingers slid over tremblingly, and his fingertips dug into the sunken wall. His stubborn hand touched the crumbling wallpaper, and he peeled it away like crazy until the entire wall was completely exposed.
Are these three years for Xu Yanqing?
There was burning pain in Yu Zhi's eyes, and he suddenly didn't know how to face it.
He took a step forward, pressed his hands against the wall, and rubbed his hands over and over again. The marks were so rough that it hurt his hands.
He complained about her for three years, but he didn't know that this was how she got through these more than a thousand days and nights.
Yuzhi's eyelids closed slightly, and there was a painful pain in his eyes. The corners of his eyes gradually became moist.
He slammed his clenched fist against the wall. Jiang Huai, who was outside the door, heard the movement and rushed in.
"Master!"
When he saw the wall, he felt his whole body tense up and goosebumps appeared.
"What's going on?"
Yu Zhi lowered his hand, and there were several bloody holes on the wall.
Jiang Huai hurriedly pulled his hand up. The bumpy finger bones were covered with blood and the skin was broken.
"Put the wallpaper back and don't let anyone know we were here."
Jiang Huai glanced at the wall again, and for some reason, he felt uncomfortable.
You don't need to think about it to know that this must have been engraved by Xu Yan.
If she had been with Zong Zang properly, she wouldn't have carved an entire wall with Yu Zhi's name.
"She wrote this under Zong Zang's nose. Why didn't Zong try to destroy it?"
"Why not?" Yu Zhi looked at the wallpaper, "It's very possible that he told more than that."
When Xu Yanqing was imprisoned, he left her alone.
She fully hoped that Yu Zhi would come to save him and carve his name over and over again, but after waiting for many days and nights, she did not see Yu Zhi.
He just wants to wear away her temper and her hopes.
However, before leaving, Zongzang told him that the entire wall must be demolished.
It's just that the people who worked took the money, but they did half the work. It's so troublesome to shovel the wall. If you buy a cheap piece of wallpaper and put it up, won't you lose sight of everything?
Jiang Huai looked at Yu Zhi's hand. The man shook his palm, and blood was flowing down the back of his hand.
"Master..."
The light was on in the room, but the light was not very bright. When Jiang Huai raised his head, he saw the man's face was cold and resolute, and his brows were carved with viciousness.
The light caressed his cheek, and Jiang Huai saw tears in the corners of his eyes. Before they could slip down, Yu Zhi raised his hand to wipe them away.
"Let's go."
His voice was like the coldest water in the depths of a pond after a cool night. Jiang Huai followed behind, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.
When he walked out of the room, the light outside was much brighter. The man's handsome face turned slightly sideways, and Jiang Huai was shocked.
He saw Yu Zhi's eyes were slightly red and there were obvious wet stains on his cheeks.
Nanhuai City.
Xu Yanqing fell asleep lying on the bedside. Wang Linshan raised her hand and touched her, and she suddenly woke up.
"mom?"
"My mouth is a little dry."
Xu Yanqing brought the water over and carefully gave her a sip, "Are you feeling better?"
"Much better." She was dizzy with fever and sweated several times, but she finally felt much better.
"You scared me to death."
Xu Yanqing tucked her in, and Wang Linshan looked out the window. It was dark.
"Yan Qing, I saw my granddaughter. She is so beautiful, just like you."
Xu Yanqing smiled lightly. "It's not like me, otherwise I wouldn't recognize her when I see her. She still looks like her father."
"It doesn't matter, you looked like this when you were a child, but it grew wider as you got older..."
"Okay, like me, like me."
Xu Yanqing lay on the bed. She leaned against the headboard and hugged her knees with her hands.
Yu Zhi will leave her alone, she knows.
What she said really touched his heart. No one would be willing to come back with wounds all over his body.
