Chapter 286 Cat and Mouse Game
Chapter 286 Cat and Mouse Game
Mo Jingchun felt that she was no longer the Lou Xiao he knew.
I thought that she was just as obsessed with killing as she was that night, and would not stop.
Now, as the fight went on, he obviously couldn't keep up with her strength, and he hadn't been killed by her yet.
Just when he was on the verge of collapse, he seemed to be playing——
It is a cat hunting mice. It will play with its prey, which is desperately trying to escape, until it is exhausted and can no longer put up any resistance. Then it will bite the prey's throat and kill it.
Worse and more unbelievable than the pure killing before, this is her.
Mo Jingchun tried to call out her name, "Lou Xiao."
The voice was trembling, hiding the hope that she would wake up.
As he expected, she did not respond. Could it be that she was like a puppet and unable to communicate, just like that day?
If this is the case, it would be fine. At least Mo Jingchun could tell herself that she was just being affected by the Gu.
But after Lou Xiao kicked her away, he raised his head slightly and looked at her like a scumbag.
The barely perceptible hint of mockery and arrogance on his face,
It made Mo Jingchun shudder.
This is not an expression that Lou Xiao could make.
If he didn't know her well enough, he might have doubted whether the person in front of him was Lou Xiao.
She didn't kill him. When he was half lying on the ground, Mo Jingchun's face turned pale as he waited for her butcher knife to fall.
But it took a long time to come.
"Why don't you kill me?" Mo Jingchun asked softly, still without answering.
The two of them stood there like sculptures for a long time. Apart from Mo Jingchun's breathing, the only sound was the rustling of leaves in the wind.
She refused to say a word, so Mo Jingchun could only try to discern the few emotions from her expression.
The previous teasing disappeared, and there was a blank again. The face that he had seen when he broke through the water and made his heart beat faster at first sight,
But now it seems particularly strange.
She didn't move, and Mo Jingchun wasn't stubborn enough to wait for her answer.
He supported himself with his hands and took a few steps back. Lou Xiao's eyes followed him all the time and did not stop him.
Then Mo Jingchun inexplicably understood what she meant, which was to let him escape.
Mo Jingchun stood up, holding his shoulder and walked forward step by step, laughing at himself, laughing at his current situation.
He really became a mouse under the cat's claws. She admired his embarrassment and his unbearableness.
Smelling the blood he was bleeding, I watched him struggle to survive until he was exhausted, and finally he had no choice but to be killed.
He didn't have much Gu left in his hand, and if no one could help him block the killing move, then his life would be over.
He spent half his life in depression, drifting with the tide, always doing the wrong things, and countless lives were lost in the years of his self-destruction.
Had he ever played tricks on others like this before? Mo Jingchun couldn't remember clearly.
Being treated as prey and tortured by the person he loves, this may be the punishment from Mother Earth.
However, in his miserable life, he had no regrets in meeting her once.
Mo Jingchun walked for a while and looked back. Lou Xiao was still standing there motionless, far away from him.
But she kept looking at him without blinking.
"Come and kill me." Mo Jingchun didn't know who he was talking to. He let out a breath.
"Catch me and kill me."
Then remember me.
The sun is setting, just as his life is coming to an end.
Mo Jingchun didn't know how to get her love, but he knew that if he died in her hands, she would definitely feel guilty.
She was not special to me, but she was not completely heartless either.
Her life is many times more exciting than mine. She has no hometown to return to, and no hardship to live by.
You will not feel hopeless about life and lose the motivation to live.
She is not him.
Mo Jingchun looked down at the lines on his palm. His destiny had never been in his own hands, so it was good that it was over.
Looking at the endless mountains, the big trees under the sun are growing hard, under the dense leaves and in the shadows,
There are birds, beasts, insects and snakes hidden in it, as well as many large and small villages in Nanzi.
In this cruel but vibrant land, the Nanzi people return to the Mother Earth after their death, then become pure beings and return again.
He figured out the direction and stopped running aimlessly.
He can die, but she can't stay like this forever.
Even if he really killed him, Mo Jingchun hoped that when she woke up and vomited blood, she could return to Qieyue Village.
The high priest said he would heal her.
Mo Jingchun pulled himself together, tore off the already torn clothes from his outer garment, and used them to stop the bleeding wound on his shoulder.
He didn't look back because he knew she would catch up with him.
How could a cat that is hunting easily let go of a mouse that escapes from its claws?
Sure enough, when Mo Jingchun's figure was about to disappear, Lou Xiao's figure moved.
------
Li Huaiqing's body was naturally not suitable for keeping up with Lou Xiao's pace. After seeing Ai Ying coming back,
He was shocked at first, but did not blame him. Instead, he asked him what had happened.
"Did she hurt you?"
Ai Ying nodded. The huge wound on his back caused him to lose a lot of blood and he was on the verge of collapse.
After asking a few general questions, Li Huaiqing asked the guards to help him heal his wounds and apply medicine, while he himself fell into deep thought.
"Does she still want to protect that Mo Jingchun?"
As far as he knew, Lou Xiao was extremely loyal to His Majesty. How could he tolerate the former King Zheng's party who once posed a threat to His Majesty?
She could ignore the fact that Mo Jingchun killed someone, and after leaving Wanqiu Garden, she could still get involved with him in Nanzi.
Even the King of Youshan doesn't like him, but he falls for a lowly slave of Nanzhi?
But even so, there is no need to do anything to Ai Ying.
She knew clearly that Ai Ying was someone close to her, so wouldn't hurting him be just a slap in her face?
Li Huaiqing was puzzled. Although Lou Xiao was a bit casual and informal,
But we won’t do things without any rules and embarrass others.
What's more, he had never offended her - at least on the surface, they were still on friendly terms.
"Could it be that he is torn between love and hate, and doesn't want others to see——"
Li Huaiqing quickly overturned his own guess. It was difficult for Lou Xiao to have such strong emotions.
She might care a little about Mo Jingchun, but it was far from being a mutual sympathy, nor was it to the point of hatred.
She will be disappointed and will soon give up caring about you.
Nothing can compare to the weight of His Majesty in her heart.
So in the end she will definitely kill Mo Jingchun.
"He was killed by the woman he loved. I don't know if he will thank me."
He murmured to himself, "You attacked me first, so you can't blame me. I didn't die in the dense forest that day, being eaten by insects and beasts, and my body was exposed in the wilderness.
Today, your head and body will be separated."
Although they were both in the forest, Mo Jingchun would never understand how desperate the situation was that he was facing at that time.
However, according to Lou Xiao's personality, even if he was killed, he would dig a deep pit for him and bury him on the spot.
Nanzi is a traitor and a dog of the former King Zheng. Perhaps this is a good ending.
