Chapter 709 Or you guys try it?
Huang Sumu stared blankly at Lu Yangyang.
Then she lowered her head, and tears streamed down her face.
That child, who was already formed, might even survive if given just another month.
His very flesh and blood.
They didn't even have the chance to open their eyes and see the world.
He endured the heartache and reluctance, and carried him out for two reasons: first, he didn't want his wife to wake up and be even more upset; second, he was worried that he would be carelessly abandoned and unable to rest in peace.
His original plan was to find a time at night to bury him secretly, so that he could at least be laid to rest.
But I never expected that she would notice it and keep thinking about it, and even in such a short time, she came up with a way to make him a simple coffin.
Huang Sumu couldn't utter a single word. His heart was filled with a bittersweet feeling. Even though he knew he might be a few years older than his master, he had already decided to serve her tea and water, care for her in her old age, and see her off in her final days. He was determined to live long enough and give his all to repay this kindness.
There was no time for him to be moved. He carefully placed the small cloth bag into the wooden box. Lu Yangyang had already bent down and pulled out the broken tree root with her bare hands, revealing a deep pit.
He understood what Lu Yangyang meant, so he quickly put the small wooden box inside and turned away to wipe his face.
Lu Yangyang buried the tree roots again and covered the surrounding area with weeds, making it almost impossible to see any trace of them.
The clothes she burned were almost completely burned. Lu Yangyang put out the fire and looked into the distance.
One reason was to help Huang Sumu bury her child; the other was that the smoke from burning her clothes should be able to send a signal.
She left a mark, and her people will follow the clues to find her. However, she had not anticipated the terrain of this place beforehand, and it would be very easy to be discovered once they got close. Therefore, it might be difficult for her people to get here. But if it's just one or two people, there shouldn't be any problem.
She's signaling that someone should come to meet her tomorrow, and they'll discuss things then.
Lu Yangyang led Huang Sumu back. Da Mao, seeing that they were taking a long time to come back, had already walked a distance to meet them. When he saw that Lu Yangyang was no longer wearing her coat, he quickly urged, "Miss, hurry back. It's cold at night, be careful not to catch a cold."
Lu Yangyang smiled and agreed, then followed him back to where Lin Wuji was staying.
Tu Jiuying had already gone to rest, but the maids who remained were very observant and respectfully led Lu Yangyang and Huang Sumu to wash up, and even prepared food for them.
"The leader has instructed that you, young lady, stay in Young Master Lin's room tonight and take care of him," the maid said.
Lu Yangyang never intended to go too far from Lin Wuji. As the leader of the Salt Gang, Lin Wuji had survived so many assassination attempts and still managed to get here. She absolutely did not believe that he was alone.
Unless Lin Wuji really intends to marry Tu Jiuying, they can cooperate if Lin wants to run away.
She doesn't have enough men, but with Lin Wuji added, her chances of winning increase significantly.
Lu Yangyang nodded readily, "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Young Master Lin."
After Lu Yangyang and Huang Sumu finished eating and drinking, they returned to Lin Wuji's room. A soft couch and two quilts were brought into the room.
Two maids were guarding the room, and there were other people on duty outside.
They're really keeping a close eye on things.
Lu Yangyang yawned nonchalantly and pointed to the soft couch, telling Huang Sumu to go to sleep first.
She managed to rest for half a day yesterday, but Huang Sumu stayed up even longer than her. If she kept going like that, she might go crazy.
Huang Sumu looked at the only soft couch in the room and quickly shook his head, "No, no, no, you go sleep there, I'll sleep on the floor."
"Just sleep when I tell you to, why are you talking so much nonsense?" Lu Yangyang picked up a quilt, ignoring what Huang Sumu was thinking, and went to the bedside with the quilt.
Then, with one hand pulling on Lin Wuji's calf, he turned him around and lay him sideways on the bed, leaving most of the bed empty.
Lu Yangyang wrapped herself in the quilt and lay down on the mostly empty bed.
This action left Huang Sumu dumbfounded, and the two maids on night watch were also quite frightened, whispering, "Miss, this, this isn't appropriate, is it?"
Lu Yangyang looked completely innocent. "If any of you aren't afraid of getting chopped up, why don't you come and try?"
No one dared to step forward.
Huang Sumu also strangely understood her meaning.
Not just anyone dares to go to Young Master Lin's bed. If Tu Jiuying found out, he would chop him up on the spot.
But Tu Jiuying wouldn't kill Lu Yangyang; if he did, Young Master Lin would also die.
Lu Yangyang didn't care what they thought. She found a comfortable position, wrapped herself in the blanket, tilted her head, and fell asleep.
The world is vast, but her sleep is the most important thing.
Huang Sumu slowly climbed onto the soft couch. His body and mind were completely exhausted, pushed to the limit, but his mind was still very clear.
For some reason, he had a feeling that they could really be saved.
……
Lu Yangyang was fast asleep when she vaguely felt an arm reach out to her. She decisively raised her hand, grabbed the arm, and gently twisted it.
Lin Wuji groaned in pain, gritting his teeth, "Lu—Yang, Yang!"
The sound of the two characters “泱泱” is so faint that it is almost inaudible if you do not listen carefully.
Lu Yangyang opened her eyes, sat up, and gently pushed his arm back, removing the arm she had dislocated.
Lin Wuji, a seriously injured man, was sweating profusely from the pain.
This action immediately woke up the three people remaining in the room.
Two maids rushed over to check on the situation, but Lu Yangyang immediately chopped each of them unconscious with a single chop.
It was barely dawn outside; it wasn't time for people to come yet.
Now that you're awake, why not take this opportunity to ask some questions?
Lu Yangyang turned around, looking down at the disheveled Lin Wuji, and asked, "How's your investigation going? Is your father really Crown Prince Chongwen? Then who is your mother? Someone from the Northern Yan court? If Northern Yan wants to plant a spy in Da Zhao, your mother's status shouldn't be low, right?"
Lin Wuji was completely stunned by her barrage of questions. His eyelids twitched repeatedly, utterly bewildered as to how she could ask such reckless questions under these circumstances.
He paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Huang Sumu, who was standing blankly behind Lu Yangyang.
Lu Yangyang noticed his gaze, glanced at him sideways, but didn't care. "My new disciple, no need to be shy, just say it."
Lin Wuji gritted his teeth, "Lu Yangyang, do you even have a heart? You climbed into my bed last night, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Lu Yangyang was a little impatient. "What explanation do I have for you? I was just looking for a place to sleep. If you weren't seriously injured, I would have thrown you down there already. You should be grateful."
"I'm a man!"
“You can’t even get up now. Without me, you’d be a corpse, no different from a pig in my eyes. I don’t care about sharing a bed with a corpse or a pig, so why do you care?” She’s even stayed in the mortuary. He’s just a patient, what’s he being so dramatic about?
"It's so stupid of me to like you!"
A corpse, a pig? Was she even a woman at all?!
For the first time, Lin Wuji wondered if she truly believed in the existence of species and gender!
She actually said he was the same as a corpse and a pig?
Lu Yangyang nodded. "If that's how you see it, then can we get down to business?"
