Chapter 57 ,Small dogs

Gu Miru couldn’t describe her mood at the moment.

Lin Zhong passed out, Gu Miru reached out and touched his face with the back of her hand, it was hot and hot.

Gu Miru hurriedly called someone, carried Lin Zhong into the cabin, took out the wound medicine from her cuff, and directly squeezed Lin Zhong’s mouth and stuffed it in.

The wound medicine was brought from Tianluo Villa before Gu Miru set off. I knew he must be hurt.

However, Gu Miru didn’t expect that Lin Zhong was injured so badly.

As for the wound dressing, it was also some powder to stop the bleeding, which was not suitable for the white wounds on Lin Zhong’s face and head.

She had to take Lin Zhong to Philadelphia and find a doctor to prescribe medicine and dressing for him.

But before they left, they had to put down the nets that had been pulled up in the gorge.

Gu Miru originally thought that Han Shan was already dead, and these bandits had no leader. They would just inform the government when they returned to Philadelphia.

But when Gu Miru and her good daddy’s men counted the number of injured people on the two ships, they realized that Gu Yancheng had brought more than 200 Class A and Class B dead men to Gu Miru.

In other words, on the river now, there is a deadly army of dead soldiers in these merchant ships.

It is very easy for a second-class dead man to be one to ten, and thirty or fifty well-trained heroes of a first-class dead man may not be able to kill him.

Gu Miru looked at the cliffs in the distance, looked towards the water bandits who were constantly shouting, and said with a sneer, “Go on, this evening, we will go into the mountains to kill the water bandits, kill one person and get one contribution point from the villa, ten will be taken. ten.”

“Except for the old and the weak, women and children, each head counts as a contribution point.”

All the dead people were excited when they heard the words, the contribution points of Tianluo Villa were not so easy to earn.

Contribution has reached a certain level, not only can he be able to retire in the villa, but also can serve as the door owner.

At the worst, it can be exchanged for money. The contribution points of a villa can be exchanged for a lot of money.

Lin Zhong risked his life to do so many tasks, and only had more than 30 contribution points.

Therefore, when the second-class dead man heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red.

Killing a water bandit can be set as a leapfrog quest. If you kill a hundred of him tonight, won’t you be able to directly rise to the first-rank?

Where to find such a good thing?

The crowd quickly acted, putting on the clothes of the water bandits and disguised themselves as water bandits.

Before Han Shan’s head was completely cut off, he stared at him, and was helped by Gu Miru. He wrapped his head with a cloth towel to fix it, and washed the blood on Han Shan’s body with river water.

Then Gu Miru put Han Shan’s arm around her neck, supported Han Shan’s body with her own body, and stood on the bow of the boat, disguised as a robbery and successfully returned to the stockade.

The rest of the merchant ships followed behind Gu Miru’s ship, and after making all preparations, they began to drive in the direction of the cliff.

The water turned a boulder pile, and it didn’t take long to reach the cliff at the entrance of the cottage.

The water bandit guarding the gate above the stockade was eagerly looking forward to the return of the boss. As soon as he saw Han Shan standing on the bow of the boat, holding the beauty in red in his arms, he immediately screamed.

Many people booed, and some people shouted into the stockade: “The boss is back! All the merchant ships have been brought back, lift up the underwater gate!”

They were so far apart that they didn’t see that Han Shan was dead at all. After all, Han Shan had his eyes open at the moment, and he seemed to be holding a person in his arms.

Soon a gate was slowly lifted under the cliff, which should be the entrance of the cottage.

Before Gu Miru’s lead boat entered the lock, it suddenly turned a corner, allowing the boat behind it to advance.

After the people above saw it, although they were a little strange in their hearts, no one really had any doubts.

Han Shan is their boss, the boss made the cargo ship advanced, it must be because the cargo on the cargo ship is very important or valuable.

The people guarding the stockade above were all cheering, and they didn’t even know that what they put in the stockade was the Shura who was full of several boats.

When all the merchant ships entered the gate, the gate was still open, but Gu Miru’s lead ship did not enter the gate with the merchant ship.

The dead soldiers were very neat in their actions. The moment they rushed out of the cabin, some water bandits who greeted the merchant ship were the first to be harvested.

So many dead people are united together, it is like a precise and efficient meat grinder, and there is no living thing where it passes.

Gu Miru estimated that it was almost time, and that the dead man had completely penetrated into the interior, so she stopped pretending and let go of Han Shan, causing Han Shan’s tall body to fall on the deck.

The force of the fall was so great that even the boat shook. Han Shan’s head, which had never been cut off, fell off his body and rolled away.

The people guarding the stockade above did not know that the massacre had started in the stockade, and they were shouting and screaming in excitement, celebrating the success of the robbery as usual this time.

As a result, they saw their boss fall to the ground and his head rolled out.

“Boss has an accident!”

“Ahhh-”

“Boss’s head fell off…”

“In the stockade, there was an accident in the stockade, and all the merchant ships were killed—”

Halfway through the words of the message, a long knife penetrated from behind him in front of him.

He glanced down, then stared and fell softly, unable to say a word again.

The dead soldiers were all killed, except for the old and the weak, women and children, the entire stockade was bloodbathed.

Gu Miru heard all kinds of screams coming from above, and then she quieted down.

The wind tonight was as cold as the moonlight tonight. Some bright red was mixed in the river water and slowly flowed out from the direction of the sluice, wrapping the boat where Gu Miru was.

Gu Miru didn’t pay attention to what was going on inside, but sat in the cabin and looked at Lin Zhong who was unconscious.

There is a scar on his side face, which is not long but has been blistered white.

The most serious injury on his face was a long scar from the brow bone to the back of his head. This scar cut off his long eyebrow and lifted half of his scalp.

The wound was rolled over by the blisters of the river, and it looked particularly terrifying.

It simply gave the illusion that he was a skinny ghost, as if he could tear off his scalp at any time and walk around with a face on.

Gu Miru was sitting in the cabin, looking at Lin Zhong with a good look.

Looking at the man who almost lost his life by tossing himself like this, he put his elbows on his face, sighed, and changed his posture.

Gu Miru’s heart gradually stirred up waves, a bunch of splashes that couldn’t be ignored.

She has met so many people in her life and has been with all kinds of people.

She has tasted many kinds of emotions, but Gu Miru has actually started to pick on her emotions.

But Gu Miru had never met someone as stupid as Lin Zhong.

There are many idiots and women in this world, and there are many who do stupid things for love.

Lin Zhong did this, but he didn’t understand why he did this.

Gu Mingru doesn’t know what to do now, Lin Zhong has already done this without enlightenment at all. If he is enlightened, he still doesn’t know what to do.

worry.

“Miss.” Someone soon came to report to Gu Miru: “All the water bandits in the villa have been killed, there is no old or weak, and 14 women and children have been rescued, two of them… I’m afraid they won’t survive. .”

“Take the boat back to the city.” Gu Miru said, “Return to the city and inform the government to clean up the mess.”

Gu Miru actually thought that this group of water bandits were so rampant, they must be colluding with government officials and bandits.

But Gu Miru didn’t have the interest to investigate at all. There were too many injustices in this world, and she couldn’t take care of it.

The Xiajiang water bandits are very famous, and they are massacred overnight, which will definitely attract the attention of the above.

When someone from above comes to investigate thoroughly, maybe they will pull out the radish and bring out the mud. That is the matter of the imperial court, and it has nothing to do with these killers.

In the cottage, there was an organ to shrink the big net in the river, and the big net that blocked the road was closed. Everyone took all the women and children on the merchant ship and began to return to the city.

After returning to Philadelphia, Gu Yancheng’s guard took the rescued women and children to report to the official, while Gu Miru took Lin Zhong to a hospital to deal with the injuries on his body and head.

The wound has become inflamed, not only on the head and face, but many on the body have blistered and even started to rot.

Lin Zhong had been in a coma all the time. His whole body was red due to the high fever. He shrank hard when he was dealing with the injury.

Gu Miru had no choice but to use some strength to hold him down, and said in a deep voice to his ear: “Be honest with me, and if you are not honest, I will throw you back into the river to drown, Rabbit Lamp.”

When Gu Miru said the last three words, there was a bit of gnashing of teeth.

Lin Zhong didn’t know if it was because he heard her voice that he was really honest.

When the wound on his body was almost bandaged, he woke up briefly, opened his eyes and looked around, his eyes were full of vigilance and sharpness.

But when he saw Gu Miru sitting not far above his head, his eyes stopped.

Then the vigilance in Lin Zhong’s eyes began to slowly fade away, turning into a mist of water that he couldn’t tell what his emotions were.

Finally he closed his eyes and passed out again.

Gu Miru had been taking care of Lin Zhong and was forced to stop in Philadelphia.

The guards sent by Gu Yancheng took all the dead back to the villa first, leaving only a few people around Gu Miru, who stayed in Philadelphia with Gu Miru.

When Lin Zhong woke up again, it was the afternoon of the next day.

Gu Miru was drinking tea and eating refreshments, holding a book in her hand, a book on herbal medicine brought from the medical center.

Of course Gu Miru didn’t want to study medicine, she was just looking for something to pass the time when she was bored.

Lin Zhong woke up silently, opened his eyes and turned to the side.

The whole person is so tired that he can’t even move a finger, plus the effect of taking medicine these days. His body’s ability to dominate has become sluggish now.

He rolled his eyes and landed on Gu Miru’s body, and then he stopped moving.

Gu Miru had arrived for tea, and when she turned to pour water for herself, only to find that Lin Zhong had woken up.

When Gu Miru met Lin Zhong’s gaze, Lin Zhong immediately turned his gaze away and closed his eyes.

He subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to cover the wound on his face, and raised his finger a little, only to realize later that his face was covered.

Therefore, he closed his eyes and did not move, and the ups and downs in his heart could not be calmed down.

He was terrified and happy, but Gu Miru came to save him.

But he has not yet become a first-class dead soldier, and there are more than 60 tasks left, so he can’t go back with Gu Miru.

Gu Miru: “…what’s the matter, you don’t want to see me, do you?”

Lin Zhong didn’t speak, but his Adam’s apple rolled slowly.

Gu Miru really wanted to hit him, but he really had nowhere to start.

With the upper body and head wrapped like a mummy, Gu Miru was afraid that she would beat him to death if she tried harder.

“Ignore me, right? You are really capable. I worked so hard to get you out of the control of the plot, and you ended up playing with your own life.”

“Can’t you wait until next year?” Gu Miru said: “Even if you can’t wait for next year, you don’t have to be so anxious. The Xiajiang water bandits have been entrenched in the Xiajiang for a long time, and they have formed a certain scale. Are you alone? Can you sneak in and assassinate?”

“Lin Zhong, open your eyes and look at me.” Gu Miru put down the medical book in her hand, glared at him and said, “You explain to me, you have tossed yourself like this, don’t you want to live?”

In fact, Gu Miru knew that Lin Zhong didn’t want to live. His self-destruction value stayed at 17% and never increased.

Lin Zhong didn’t say a word, didn’t open his eyes and pretended to be dead.

He also knew how dangerous it was to take the mission, but he couldn’t control his urgency.

He wanted to go back to the time when he was in the palace so much that he felt tormented to wait another day.

It was an unbearable torment than he had died hundreds of times.

He didn’t know how to answer Gu Miru, and finally he just said, “I’m sorry…”

Gu Miru: “…”

System: [Don’t force the little rabbit, he’s already pitiful enough…]

“What did you say I’m sorry, what are you sorry for?” Gu Miru was a little angry: “You don’t cherish your own life, what does it have to do with me?!”

Lin Zhong finally opened his eyes and looked at her.

His lips moved and he said, “Then why are you angry?”

Why are you angry if it has nothing to do with you?

Gu Miru was stunned.

Even the system was choked by Lin Zhong, and then he simulated applause, and after that, he said: [My dear, he has discovered the truth of the world! You just can’t leave him alone hahaha…]

Gu Miru wanted to reset the system to factory settings again.

Seeing that Gu Miru didn’t speak, Lin Zhong’s eyes were filled with a little helplessness and panic.

He said, “Thank you for saving me.”

“What’s the use of me saving you, you don’t cherish your own life, don’t you still want to die?”

“If it’s better, come back to Tianluo Villa with me. If you want to become a first-class dead man, you can wait until next year to pass the Tianluo Thirteenth Formation.”

Lin Zhong pursed his lips again, his expression stubborn.

Although he didn’t say a word, Gu Miru actually understood what he meant.

“Don’t tell me you have to go on a mission!” Gu Miru stretched out her hand, unable to hit Lin Zhong, so she grabbed his collar.

“Have your brain been smashed out of the pit? It’s impossible for the leapfrog mission to succeed every time. You almost died this time, and your life is gone. No matter what you want to do, you can’t do it.”

“you…”

Gu Miru wanted to scold him, but suddenly met his gaze.

Gu Miru’s voice stopped, and Lin Zhong’s gaze reminded Gu Miru of an abandoned dog.

Although she has never abandoned a dog, in a certain world, she adopted an abandoned dog.

That look is the same as Lin Zhong now.

Filled with cringe and grief, he didn’t seem to understand why his master didn’t want him.

Gu Miru couldn’t go on, but after thinking about it a little bit, it was not difficult for her to understand Lin Zhong’s psychology.

A person who grew up in a death camp and never received any attention, suddenly someone was kind to him, and he would definitely hold on to it to the death.

Gu Miru had tried her best to avoid Lin Zhong’s dependence on her. She used the reason of mutual cooperation to help Lin Zhong and let Lin Zhong participate in the process, making Lin Zhong feel that Gu Miru would do this for herself.

But even though Gu Miru tried her best to avoid it, she still couldn’t avoid it.

Because Lin Zhong’s world is like a desert, and even a drop of rain is extremely precious.

Therefore, Gu Miru sighed softly and said, “You don’t have to do any more tasks, and you don’t have to become a first-class dead man. If you want to stay by my side, then come back to Tianluo Villa with me.”

Lin Zhong didn’t seem to understand at first, but soon his eyes burst into layers of joy, like splendid fireworks, so Gu Miru couldn’t help but look away.

The expectations and joy there were too heavy, and Gu Miru felt that she couldn’t bear it.

She was destined to be a passer-by, how could she take on Lin Zhong’s expectations without caring.

“I put my words up front, I can let you stay by my side, just like the fire ghost and the famous paintings.”

“Do you understand what I mean?” Gu Miru asked Lin Zhong.

What does Lin Zhong care about Gu Miru mean? He just needs to go back to the way with Gu Miru, other than that, he doesn’t have any too many demands.

Lin Zhong nodded like a garlic clover, his whole body was shaking with excitement, and the extent was a little too large and the wound was pulled, but he kept turning his head to look at Gu Miru, his eyes lit like two searchlights.

Gu Miru knew from the look of him that he didn’t understand the meaning of that sentence at all.

Any further explanation is to help him enlighten, so Gu Miru chose not to explain.

She said to the system: [When Lin Zhong’s self-destruction value drops by 10%, we will jump into the world. 】

【what? How to dance? 】

【die. 】

It should be only when she is really dead that Lin Zhong will restrain these feelings that should not exist in his life and move on.

Be a good killer and not be disturbed by foreign objects.

The system didn’t speak this time, as if there was no better way.

Lin Zhong doesn’t even know what love is now, and of course he won’t be a person who sacrifices love for whom.

Maybe one day in the future, he will be able to think clearly about his original feelings, but at that time Gu Miru had already been dead for a long time, and he was at most disappointed.

“Get well soon,” Gu Miru took out the wound medicine from her bosom and put it to Lin Zhong’s mouth and said, “Get well soon and come back to Tianluo Villa with me, my father dispatched a lot of troops this time. , you have to thank him yourself.”

Lin Zhong opened his mouth to take the medicine, swallowed it directly, and nodded.

Gu Miru promised to let Lin Zhong stay by her side. Lin Zhong was really like a stray dog ​​that was picked up and brought home. He was extremely tenacious and recovered surprisingly quickly.

Of course, the rapid recovery must be the reason why Gu Mi gave him high-quality wound medicine like a jelly bean.

After Lin Zhong was able to sit up, he began to eat frantically.

During this period of time, he has lost a lot of weight. He travels all over the world by himself. Every day, the thought in his mind is to return to Gu Miru’s side. He doesn’t even eat well.

He was like a dog that ran hundreds of kilometers after being abandoned. He tore all four of his feet. He was almost taken away by the dog catcher in the middle, and even his face was broken.

Finally returned home.

After being accepted by the “master” again, he seemed to have no trauma in his heart, and immediately became able to eat and sleep again.

It’s just that his eyes are basically sticking to Gu Miru’s body every day, which is more serious than before.

Gu Miru could feel Lin Zhong’s gaze anytime, anywhere. She said to Lin Zhong twice, “Don’t look at me like that.”

As a result, Lin Zhong refrained from watching her during the day, and then watched her even when she was not sleeping at night.

In the end, Gu Miru had no choice but to go with Lin Zhong.

Counting that Gu Miru rushed to Philadelphia to rescue Lin Zhong, they stayed in Philadelphia for 20 days before finally set foot on the road back to Tianluo Villa.

The weather was already very cold, and it was too painful to ride on a horse. Moreover, although Lin Zhong could walk, sit and lie down freely with his injuries, he could not shake violently or move significantly.

Gu Miru bought a carriage and let her subordinates go first, and Lin Zhong hired a coachman and drove the carriage slowly towards the imperial city.

The inside of the carriage was covered with thick cushions and filled with Mrs. Tang. Gu Miru and Lin Zhong sat across the small table, Gu Miru had tea and read idle books, and Lin Zhong threw hidden weapons at every corner of the carriage wall.

His eyes were always on Gu Miru’s body.

There is really not much space in the carriage. Usually, Gu Miru walks back and forth in the house and is looked at. The two of them are almost sitting face to face like this, and Lin Zhong still looks at her like this.

“I’m so afraid you’re going to throw a hidden weapon on me all of a sudden.”

Gu Miru sighed and put down the book, glared at Lin Zhong and said, “Do I have flowers growing on my face?”

Lin Zhong staggered his gaze, lowered his eyes and stopped looking.

Gu Miru watched his eyelashes flicker and flicker, and an indescribable feeling slowly drifted away in her heart.

She was like a vicious owner who kicked down a dog who had finally run home.

Gu Miru picked up the book again, but this time she couldn’t read it.

Lin Zhong stopped practicing hidden weapons, but lowered his head and looked at his knees without raising his eyes, just like the old monk entering meditation.

“Why didn’t you see that you were still angry?” Gu Miru couldn’t help but ask.

Lin Zhong hurriedly shook his head and took out a package of candied fruit from his arms, not knowing when he bought it.

He spread out the candied fruit in front of Gu Miru and said to her, “This is very sweet, not sour, you can eat it.”

Gu Miru doesn’t like to eat this kind of food, she likes it a bit sour.

It was Lin Zhong who liked to eat sweet things and wanted to be rude, and he wanted to use this to please Gu Miru.

He does these things instinctively, and he instinctively feels that what he likes will also be liked by Gu Miru.

Instinctively use what you like to please each other.

Gu Miru’s words “I don’t like to eat” were already on her lips, but when she met Lin Zhong’s earnest gaze, she swallowed it again.

He reached out and took one, stuffed it into his mouth and said, “You can eat it, it’s so sweet, I can’t eat so much.”

Lin Zhong also put one in his mouth, seemingly forgetting that Gu Miru didn’t let him look at her just now, and started staring at Gu Miru again.

Gu Miru was completely defeated and didn’t bother to care about him.

After walking for a while, I got off the official road ahead to take a bumpy place.

The carriage was swaying unsteadily, and Gu Miru couldn’t drink the tea, so she had to put away the teapot.

As a result, I don’t know why the wheel of the car fell into a pit, and the two people in the car were caught off guard.

Gu Miru rushed forward, Lin Zhong subconsciously reached out to pick her up, and the two suddenly became very close.

Gu Miru raised her heart slightly, she was like a tightrope walker, for fear that Lin Zhong would suddenly wake up one day. That would be troublesome.

As a result, Gu Miru was about to get up and sit back when Lin Zhong suddenly stretched out his arm, wrapped his arms around Gu Miru’s back, and pressed her tightly into his arms.

Gu Miru took a breath.

Lin Zhong wrapped his arms around her back, hugged her very hard, and pressed his head on Gu Miru’s shoulders.

Gu Mi’s breath was stagnant.

The system said: [It’s over, it’s over, don’t be enlightened! 】
