Chapter 14
==============================
Qi, extremely gas.
Angry at him for not cherishing his body, and even more angry at himself for turning a blind eye at that time.
"Xiaozhi, do you have scissors?" Su Hongyu almost squeezed out the words through his teeth.
"Yes..." Yi Zhi replied weakly, scrambling to find the scissors from her medicine box and handing them to Su Hongyu.
Holding the scissors tightly, Su Hongyu ordered again: "Go and ask someone to bring a basin of hot water, it must be boiled."
"Okay: okay, I'll go right away, I'll go right away." After finishing speaking, Yi Zhi crawled out of the room, rubbed a cold sweat, and felt that she was alive again.
Su Hongyu took a deep breath, and waited for the intense emotions to subside before he started to deal with Jing Lingzhi's injuries.
He used to live alone for a long time, so there is no problem in dealing with such an injury easily.Without hot water, the excess bandage could only be cut off, leaving only the part stuck to the blood.It's not difficult, but it's cumbersome, and you have to be careful not to cause secondary damage.The strong smell of rust lingered at the tip of his nose, making him almost suffocate.Unwilling to pay attention to the silent people, Su Hongyu moved carefully while listening carefully to Jing Lingzhi's breathing.No matter how I got used to torture, I would unconsciously breathe harder when I was suddenly hurt, which was much more effective than asking directly or observing facial expressions.
Jing Lingzhi sat quietly, allowing his master to fiddle with it.The eyes that had nowhere to rest swept across the owner's focused face from time to time, and then quickly escaped and landed on the floor out of focus before being noticed.The master got too close.I have long been used to the injuries on my body, and I ignored the pain. What is left is the warmth of the owner's hands occasionally touching the body, and the long breath that brushes across the chest.He moved back a little uncomfortably, and it happened that the master was pinching the bandage at this time, and the wound was pulled open immediately when he moved back.The sudden pain made Jing Lingzhi's steady breathing sink.
At the same time, the master said dryly, "Don't move."
He was silent for a moment, and silently moved his body back to its original position.
Not long after, a young man came in with a basin of steaming water, and said in a low voice, "Master Yizhi said he didn't bring enough wound medicine, so he went back to get it now, and he'll be back in a while."
Su Hongyu nodded, he didn't expose Yi Zhi's little Jiujiu, but just let the little servant back down.
All the bandages that can be removed have been cut off, and there are still many left on the wound. If you want to remove the bandages, you have to wet the bandages with clean water before you can do it.
It was inconvenient to stand, so Su Hongyu simply took off his shoes and got on the couch, stretched out his hand to test the temperature of the water, and it was just right.
"It hurts a bit, bear with it." After that, he dipped a clean bandage aside with water, and dripped it on the blood-stained bandage.
Jing Lingzhi moved his eyes and glanced at his master quietly. Even though he was extremely angry, he was still worried about hurting him...
No matter how careful Su Hongyu's movements were, the wound would still be touched from time to time.
The weather is still very warm now, even if the sun is about to set, the temperature in the room is still pleasant, and the upper body does not feel cold in the air.
Another piece was picked off and put aside, Jing Lingzhi suddenly said: "Master, you don't need to worry so much. The shadow guard is the sharpest spear in your hand, and also the most solid shield. This little pain is really nothing." After so many years in the rain, it's not like I haven't suffered a more serious injury than this one, but I just endured it, stood up after a rough bandage, and continued to move forward.He's not a paper doll that shatters at the touch of a finger, without the slightest effort.On the contrary, no matter what kind of predicament, as long as there is still a breath, he can climb out.Everyone in the Shadow Guards Battalion knew that their commander was highly skilled in martial arts, calm and self-reliant, abided by the creed, and had a firm will.Because of this, they respected him and followed him, and he was proud of this. He had long forgotten that he was just a human being, and if he was strong for too long, he would always get tired.
The trust of the leader, the expectation of the master, the respect of the subordinates, the belief in protecting Hengjiao... There are always pressures on him, so he can't be weak, cowardly, or evasive, and then encounter him after traveling too long. When you meet a person, you always want to heal his pain inadvertently.To that person, this may just be a long-standing habit, but to him, it is indeed an irresistible tenderness.
Jing Lingzhi's words were tantamount to adding fuel to the flames for Su Hongyu: "No matter how you are not afraid of pain, your body belongs to you. Can't you think about it before doing things? I said that the responsibility is not yours, why are you... ..." Su Hongyu suddenly remembered that when he saw him this morning, this man had already suffered new injuries.Thinking about Jing Lingzhi's reaction every time he asked for punishment, but he said he didn't blame him, he couldn't figure it out.It's not that I didn't think about it carefully, it was clearly thinking too much!Are you afraid that you will let it go lightly, so you will punish yourself?What's wrong with this?Su Hongyu was about to be laughed at by this anger, "That's why you use it like this?! You clearly know that I won't punish you, so why do you have to be so stubborn?"
Knowing that you can't drink alcohol but still drinking it, isn't it natural that you should be punished for it?Jing Lingzhi thought that the master was angry that he deliberately concealed it, but now he was a little confused, he only knew that he had made the master angry.What should I do to anger my master?He straightened his posture, facing his master, and lowered his head to expose the vitals of his neck to his master's eyes: "Your subordinate, please..." His master punished him.
"If you ask for punishment, then you will be exempted!" Su Hongyu was anxious.He really wanted to knock open the man's head to see if there was any paste inside, "Look at your current appearance, how can you punish me? What else do you want to punish?"
Jing Lingzhi's current appearance is indeed not good.Old wounds are not healed, and new wounds are piled up.The welt marks were intricate and intertwined with each other to form a terrifying blood net, cutting the body to pieces, and there was no piece of intact skin the size of a palm.
Su Hongyu thought he would be silent, but unexpectedly he took out a small wooden box from nowhere, opened it, and pushed it in front of him: "If the master doesn't want to see blood, he can order his subordinates to take Heart Eater as a light punishment."
Biting heart, it doesn't sound like a good thing.Su Hongyu asked: "Do you know what you're talking about?" He really didn't want to know how far the other party's "slight punishment" could go, and he was afraid that it might fade away.
"The subordinates know. The subordinates have no complaints." Of course Jing Lingzhi knew.When he was not the leader, he was punished with a heart-eating heart. Just thinking about the taste made him flustered badly. He never wanted to taste the second time after trying it once.However, the master is angry.He only hoped that after the punishment, the master would take him out of the execution hall as before, take good care of him, make jokes, praise his martial arts skills, and care about him from time to time.It's just a little pain.
This man is serious.Su Hongyu clearly understood.It was just an insignificant thing that would not leave any traces in his heart, but it required another person to pay for it by cutting the flesh and cutting the bones.He was busy practicing calligraphy, martial arts, and familiarizing himself with Hengjiao, but in the end he found that he had never really understood the world.
Jing Lingzhi still had the same low-browed and pleasing look, with his head down, only the top of his dark hair could be seen.Only Su Hongyu knows that under the moonlight, when he looks over with those pitch-black eyes, your whole world seems to be contained within it.
The monstrous anger was extinguished at once.
After all, what right did he have to be angry?
When he thought that every time the other party asked for punishment was just a tacit understanding, a good show of master-slave harmony, he never thought that that person was really ready to be punished or even die for it; When he faintly looked down on this world, he never thought about how much that person paid for the original promise of "protecting you for the rest of your life".Now, what right does he have for his own ignorance to blame the other party for not doing well enough and not meeting his own wishes?
Su Hongyu squatted down and looked up into Jing Lingzhi's eyes: "...Sorry, I'm too self-righteous. I shouldn't use my habits to judge your behavior, this is my fault." Ling Zhi was so shocked that he wanted to apologize before he held his hand and stopped him, "But, without my consent, you can't punish yourself from now on. Have you written it down?"
Jing Lingzhi nodded blankly, only thinking about "how can the master lower himself like this" and "this is against the rules".
Su Hongyu didn't let him go, put more force on his hands, and asked again: "No, you didn't write it down. I won't allow you to punish yourself any more, have you written it down?"
This time, Jing Lingzhi's gaze landed on the hands they held together, and he went all the way up, looking directly into the master's eyes.A temperature that didn't belong to him came from his wrist, and a sore feeling spread in his heart, choking him a little speechless, so he could only nod vigorously.
"Write it down and do it." Su Hongyu instructed, sat back on the couch again, picked up the clean bandage that had just been thrown aside, and prepared to continue treating the wound.It's a pity that the steaming water has cooled a lot by now, "Wait a minute, I'll ask someone to change the basin of hot water." Saying that, he got up and went to the door to call for someone.
Other than the servant, there was also Yi Zhi who was "going back to get the medicine" waiting at the door.Seeing him come out, he smiled shyly: "Brother Hongyu, have you finished chatting with Commander?"
Su Hongyu was not surprised at all, he just let Yi Zhi in, and Yi Zhi shook his head violently without being annoyed, and just asked the servant to bring the hot water again.Halfway through the conversation, the ghost turned around.Jing Lingzhi sat on the couch obediently, his eyes were looking at this side.Su Hongyu nodded, turned back and continued to give orders to the servant.
Jing Lingzhi's eyes followed the master's back all the way to the door, quietly listening to the few words that came from him, and it was strange that he didn't feel much nervous when he was caught.Sure enough, the master just nodded and continued with his own business.
On the tip of the moon, it was night now, outside the door was the thick night, and you couldn't see your fingers. Inside the door, the newly lit candlelight danced, illuminating the house transparently.
The complicated thoughts of these days have been left behind, and the restless heart has never been calmer than before. Even the body is a little tired, and I don't want to move at all. I only hope that this moment can last for a long time.
After a lot of tossing, the wound was re-bandaged with medicine, and Ying Liu, who was on duty, was asked to send Yi Zhi back.
The black tights were stained with blood and could no longer be worn, and it was getting late, so Su Hongyu kept Jing Lingzhi overnight.
With the previous experience of sharing the same bed, Jing Lingzhi readily agreed.The straightforward attitude made Su Hongyu feel much better, and even fell asleep much faster.
It's just that I seem to hear someone say "thank you" dimly.Is it an illusion?Consciousness struggled for a moment, and soon sank back into sleep.
Seeing that the master was sleeping just right, Jing Lingzhi showed a small but real smile in his eyes, closed his eyes, and fell asleep too.
