Luo Jiutian was silent for a few seconds. He gently put Jasmine's hand back on the bed, turned around and walked out of the room.
Everyone looked at the door, and the fool said, "I'll go out and watch him," and followed him out.
Xiaolan's eyes returned to Jasmine. Jasmine had just learned all this, so it might take some time to digest it.
Now is not the time to tell her the third piece of bad news.
Just as she was thinking this, Jasmine suddenly raised her head and asked, "By the way, is Lao Xu back?"
this……
Qin Yin looked at Xiaolan helplessly.
It seems that the third bad news cannot be concealed.
Xiaolan took a deep breath, slowly walked forward, stood where Luo Jiutian was standing not long ago, and told Jasmine what happened word for word.
Jasmine's body shook heavily, as if she had been hit hard by something, and she couldn't sit still for a moment.
"Moli," Xiao Lan hurriedly reached out to hold Jasmine's shoulders, "I...I don't want to see you sad, but I have to tell the truth."
Jasmine quickly grabbed Xiaolan's hand as if grasping a life-saving straw, "He wants to kill me?"
"I think..." Xiaolan said, "Killing you may be just an excuse for him. He just used you to threaten me and let me kill him. Of course, the actual purpose is to kill me..."
Jasmine pressed her lips tightly together, waited for a long time, and then slowly said, "Actually... I may have already felt it..."
Xiaolan was shocked.
"You got it?"
"It should be said that I should have thought of it a long time ago," Jasmine's voice became colder, "Xiaolan, you are wrong. He really wants to kill me."
There was an uproar.
Xia Hua came closer, "Jasmine, you said you felt Xu Ye's murderous intention?"
"But didn't he watch you grow up?" Qin Yin's voice became smaller and smaller, "Isn't he... isn't he your only relative?..."
Moli Han smiled, "That's true for me, but he...may have never regarded me as a relative."
"But he... didn't kill you in the end," Xiaolan was aroused by the coldness in Jasmine's words, and unconsciously spoke for Xu Ye, "He could have killed you at that time, but he didn't.
…”
Jasmine stopped talking. She lowered her head, wondering what she was thinking.
"I thought of a possibility," the Taoist priest said, "Moli, maybe he really came back to kill you."
These words stung Jasmine deeply again.
Xiaolan secretly thought in her heart that the Taoist priest's point of view had better be constructive, otherwise it would only hurt Jasmine even more.
"But it's not that he wants to kill you," the Taoist priest continued, "it's just... that's his mission."
"Mission?!" everyone was shocked.
The Taoist priest nodded, "Moreover, it is a task that he is very reluctant to carry out, but has to carry out."
Brother Shuanglu said, "So he chose to die."
The surroundings were as quiet as a cemetery in the middle of the night.
Jasmine sat stiffly on the bed, only her fingers moved slightly.
Xiaolan opened her mouth and looked at the little brother who said this in surprise.
Now that I think about it, Xu Ye's state at that time, his expression, his eyes, his madness...
He sat beside Jasmine's bed for a long time, staring at Jasmine's face.
His struggle.
He doesn't want it.
Xiaolan's words suddenly made him see another possibility.
If you die, there is no need to kill Jasmine.
That's why he suddenly became like that...
Xiaolan's eyes focused on Jasmine.
Jasmine's thoughts at this moment should be the same as mine.
What should she do?
Seeing that the atmosphere was cold, Xia Hua cleared her throat, changed the subject and asked, "Moli, when did you feel that Xu Ye wanted to kill you?"
Jasmine slowly raised her head and said, "Before he leaves."
"When did he leave?"
Jasmine was silent for a while, seeming to recall the specific time.
"Is it not long before Heyi?" Baomu asked.
When Jasmine and Lao Luo returned to Fuxuan from Wenjing, Xu was also dealing with the formalities, so he should have been waiting for them in Fuxuan at that time.
Jasmine actually shook her head, "He left the night we arrived in Fuxuan."
Left that night?
"Has he come back since?" the Taoist priest asked.
"No," Jasmine said, "I haven't seen him since then."
From now on, I will never see you again.
"You felt it that night..." Qin Yin hesitated to speak.
Jasmine nodded.
"What's going on?" Xia Hua sat beside Jasmine's bed and asked.
"That night..." Jasmine began to recount as she recalled, "After he settled Uncle Luo and me in, he sent someone to tell us about the preparations for the ceremony, and he himself didn't know what he was busy with.
, while I was listening, I suddenly remembered that I had a question to ask him face to face, so I went to his room..."
***
The door is closed.
There was no movement at the door.
Jasmine knocked on the door lightly and waited for a few seconds.
"Lao Xu?" she called.
There is no sound.
"Where have you gone?..."
Jasmine touched her pocket and found that her phone was not on her body either, so she had to go back to her room to get it.
The door to her room was open. Jasmine didn't remember whether she locked the door when she left, so she pushed the door open and walked in.
The window is also open.
The curtains were blown away by the sudden breeze in the hall. Jasmine picked up the mobile phone on the table and put it in her pocket, then walked over to close the window.
At this time, the lights suddenly went out.
The surroundings suddenly fell into a thick darkness. Jasmine looked around in confusion. Seeing that the lights in the corridor were also extinguished, she walked to the window and looked out.
The lights in several nearby buildings are still on. It seems that the power outage is the only one here?
Just as Jasmine was about to take out her phone and ask about the situation, she suddenly felt a burst of cold air coming from behind her.
Someone!
Jasmine immediately turned around and summoned her spirit-locking whip at the same time, "Who?!"
In the darkness, the man had come behind him. With one hand, he held down Jasmine's hand that was holding the spirit-locking whip, and with the other hand, he covered Jasmine's eyes.
Jasmine was about to launch a counterattack, but the black shadow spoke.
"It's Jasmine..." The man smiled faintly, then withdrew his hand, "Jasmine, don't be afraid."
Through the moonlight, Jasmine could clearly see the shadow's face.
Xu Ye.
"Old Xu?" Jasmine gasped and looked Xu Ye up and down, "What are you going to do?"
Xu Ye's breathing was not calm, and there was still a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. "The circuit here is broken. I'm not worried, so I came up to take a look."
"What's there to see?" Jasmine withdrew her spirit-locking whip, turned her head and glared at Xu Ye, "You scared me to death, I thought someone was attacking me."
"Shouldn't you be downstairs?" Xu Ye asked, "I saw someone in your room and thought it was someone else..."
