His eyebrows twitched slightly, the muscles on his face also twitched, and his complexion suddenly turned pale and dull.
"faint?"
Zhou Tian, who suddenly spoke softly, covered his abdomen. A tingling sensation made him let go of Youyou's body, and slowly took a step back.
Xu Qingnian thought they would be bored for a while, but when he calmed down and took a closer look, he saw a dagger stuck in Zhou Tian's abdomen, and blood was already spread around the dagger.
In panic, he hurriedly supported Zhou Tian.
"Master! Master!"
Xu Qingnian turned to look at Ye Youyou, his face expressionless, his stiff cheeks like a dummy.
"what happened to you?"
"Old Xu, it's okay, it's okay."
Zhou Tian didn't have a sea of qi in his body, so he couldn't heal wounds with luck. He covered the wound and wanted to pull out the dagger, but Xu Qingnian stopped him.
"Master, don't move, I'll help you!"
He straightened Zhou Tian upright and asked him to sit firmly with his body supported.
Zhou Tian faced Ye Youyou who was standing in front of him. He sat cross-legged and looked at Youyou without leaving his eyes. The pain came and went, which made him quite uncomfortable. He didn't understand why Youyou was like this, but he found that at this time, he was standing in front of Youyou.
There was something wrong with her in front of her.
Zhou Tian's eyes gradually dimmed, but his eyes were still as warm as water. After a while, Xu Qingnian used his own strength to pop out the dagger from Zhou Tian's abdomen and stopped the bleeding from the wound.
Zhou Tian fell to the ground weakly, slowly closed his eyes, tears gradually flowed out of his eyes, and then he fainted.
He didn't know how long he had been unconscious or asleep. When he woke up again, he was already in his room in the mansion.
"Ah! Hiss!"
There was a sharp pain, which felt like it was tearing his lower abdomen apart. Because he stood up too hard, the wound had not healed yet. He suddenly felt his scalp numb and took a breath of cold air.
He held one hand on the edge of the bed and moved his body slowly, trying to get out of bed. There were too many questions and mysteries in his mind, and he wanted to figure them out.
As soon as he put on his outer clothes, he opened the door and was greeted by his father.
"what are you doing?"
"The wound is not healed yet, why do you move around at will?"
Zhou Liting's expression was solemn, and he kept looking at his abdominal wound, which seemed to have a trace of blood.
But at this moment, all Zhou Tian could think about was why Youyou wanted to stab him, and whether there was something unspeakable.
He wanted to push his father away and go out, but due to his injury, he was unable to make any big movements. The slightest movement would cause severe pain.
He had no choice but to turn around and sit on the edge of the bed again, his anxious look making Zhou Liting helpless.
"I know you want to find out something about Youyou, just lie down first and I will tell you!"
When Zhou Tian looked at it, his eyes twitched.
"Dad? Do you know about Youyou?"
So after listening to his father's words, he returned to the bed and covered himself with the quilt.
"After you rescued Ye Youyou yesterday, she gave you a knife. In fact, it was not what she wanted, let alone what she could control. Old Xu brought her over."
"After our joint observation, Ye Youyou must have fallen into Haotian Pavilion's trick."
Zhou Liting's words became increasingly difficult for Zhou Tian to understand. He turned his head and looked at his father's mouth that was moving up and down.
"Dad? What are you talking about? What tricks, what can't be controlled?"
"Hey, it's the legendary puppet technique. It should be used against you."
Zhou Liting sighed and shook his head.
"Puppetry?"
Hearing these three words, he remembered what Lao Xu had told him before. "Puppetry? Are you saying that you are being controlled by Haotian Pavilion's spies? What should you do? How can you release this control."
Zhou Tian anxiously grabbed his father's shoulders with both hands, and some blood oozed from the wound on his abdomen.
Looking at Zhou Tian's withered lips, pale face, and anxious mood, Zhou Liting gradually put down his hands and stood up.
"Youyou has been sent back to Ye Mansion. It should be fine. This kind of puppetry only lasts for half a month. If it is too far away from the controller, it will be automatically canceled. Don't worry, she is fine."
After Zhou Tian heard what his father said, he gradually felt more at ease and looked up into his father's eyes.
"Dad, can I go see her?"
This kind of request is only human, but Zhou Liting frowned after listening to it, it seemed that it was a bit difficult for him to handle.
"Youyou's matter, the soul-devouring blood bead's matter, the masked man's matter, and the marriage matter, four things happened together, and they are all related to you, and even more implicated in Youyou. If you still go to find her at this time, Ye You must be in trouble.
Your family will not let you get what you want, and you may suffer the consequences instead."
"You are my son, and I respect your choice. If you are still so persistent, you can go and see it, but you must be prepared for all the consequences."
Zhou Tian knew what his father said and understood the truth behind it, but he still couldn't let go of the fact that Youyou was controlled by Haotian Pavilion, so he still lifted the quilt.
"Dad! Something happened suddenly. What is happening to Youyou now is what I care about most. Most of what I did was because of her. I must see her before I can rest assured."
After that, he rushed out of the room without looking back.
But at this moment, he had no time to take care of the wound. Her shadow was all in his eyes, mind, and heart at this moment.
"Master?"
Lao Xu saw Zhou Tian covering his abdomen and wearing unbuttoned clothes, so he hurriedly ran out.
"Master? This..."
"Old Xu, don't follow me. This matter is still between the two of them after all. I don't think even Ye Wensheng will embarrass him too much."
"At least Tian'er's injuries were caused by his daughter."
Xu Qingnian didn't think so. He walked around to him and said angrily: "Master, don't you know who Ye Wensheng is? You and I have suspected that he is a traitor to Xuantian Sect. Are you really not afraid of Tian'er?"
Will your life be in danger if you go like this? If you don’t go, I will!”
Xu Qingnian was very worried about Zhou Tian's safety.
Having said that, he rushed out.
"return!"
Zhou Liting stopped him sharply.
"It is up to the children to solve their own problems. You are always by his side. When will he grow up? Today is the last day. The old man will come over later to take care of others. Let Tian'er solve the problems by himself so that he can devote himself wholeheartedly to practice.
!”
"Old man? Are you saying that the young master will go to the imperial city and enter the academy today?"
Xu Qingnian was startled and suddenly thought of this matter. Today happened to be the third day.
"Well, he is your son, and he is also the family affairs of your Xuantian Sect. As the housekeeper, I can't interfere too much, so let's see what happens to him."
After that, he turned around and walked away.
Zhou Liting was alone in Zhou Tian's room, walking back and forth and looking around, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
What Xu Qingnian said just now also made him somewhat worried. What if he thought wrongly and Ye Wensheng had murderous intentions towards him?
"Susu, what should I do?"
After Zhou Liting thought for a while, he walked out of the room and stood in a daze in the center of the yard for a long time.
With the spring coming, most of the people in Tianqian Town are filled with happy smiles. The doors of every house are open and the streets are lively. Only Zhou Tian, who is walking on the road to Yefu, feels extremely cold in his heart, inadvertently reflecting the faint scenes of the past.
It comes to mind over and over again.
The bursts of pain in his abdomen made him extremely weak and he was breathing heavily. Even if he wanted to speed up, his body would not obey his orders.
"stop!"
A man held his sword in front of him, blocking his way.
Zhou Tian raised his head, his eyes filled with blood.
"Why are you still haunting me? You're like a dog."
"Step aside!"
It turned out to be the same Wang Zilun. He looked at the pale and disheveled Zhou Tian in front of him angrily, and said sternly: "It's you, your Zhou family, who caused Ye Youyou to be like this. Today, I have to go out for her."
Such bad breath!"
After saying that, he unceremoniously pulled out the scabbard of the sword in his hand.
Zhou Tian is not as good as before, and his body has not yet recovered from his injuries. Taking action hastily will only aggravate the injuries and will do no good.
"Do you really want to fight? Have you forgotten the scene where you were taught a lesson by me a few days ago?"
Zhou Tian wanted to use words to intimidate Wang Zilun and make him retreat.
"Haha, if you are intact now, maybe I will still be afraid. Now that you are seriously injured, plus there is no air sea in your body, and your housekeeper is not here, I will see how you fight with me!"
Wang Zilun put up a posture that made the people around him feel a little scared and walked around one after another, not wanting to get involved.
"Why do Xuantian Sect always have disputes recently?"
"How do I know? Maybe when spring comes, these young people will have itchy hands and want to use their hands. Whatever, just stay away."
The people on the street were talking to each other, some were watching from a distance, and some were hurriedly walking away.
Wang Zilun looked around and smiled.
"I'm going to let you die here today, and let the people of Tianqian Town see how cowardly your Zhou family is."
Wang Zilun had already noticed that Zhou Tian was showing off, so it was a good time to take advantage of him.
He stepped forward with his sword in hand and rushed forward with a single step. He saw that the sword was about to reach his chest.
Zhou Tian walked all the way from the house, blood was constantly oozing out from the wound, and he was extremely weak. He tried to resist with his fists, but he couldn't use any strength at all.
Simply closed his eyes.
At the critical moment, he could feel the cold sword intent. Suddenly, a man stood in front of him, and a few strands of fragrant hair swept across his eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, a light brown ponytail swayed back and forth in front of his eyes.
He held his abdomen and took a step back.
"The humble Wang family still dares to assassinate someone in the street. Who gave you the courage?"
"you!"
Wang Zilun was very angry. He thought he could easily get rid of Zhou Tian, but he never thought that another nosy guy would show up.
Zhou Tian heard the voice was that of a woman, and wanted to go around to see who had saved him, but just when he saw the profile, the woman punched Wang Zilun and flew several meters away, then jumped up and jumped to the street.
The roof of the house hurried away.
"Who is it?"
The sudden rescue made him a little stunned. Looking at the figure gradually going away, he couldn't figure out who it was.
Wang Zilun was wearing a gray gown with a bright fist mark on his chest. He staggered a few steps and stood up, covering his chest.
Zhou Tian took a few steps forward to take a closer look...
"This punch, this strength, could it be?"
Wang Zilun was injured again and was extremely embarrassed. It was obvious that the punch had caused him a lot of pain and he could not turn around and run away.
