Chapter 142
How could it be him?
Su Ruiran suddenly couldn't believe her eyes, she collected herself and tried to take a closer look.However, at this moment, the other party's hand that was closing the door suddenly stopped, and suddenly raised his head, looking towards where Su Ruiran was.

She couldn't be more familiar with that face.

The slanted and straight eyebrows, the deep and dark eyes, and the lightly pursed thin lips, coupled with the aloof, lonely and overbearing aura that exudes no matter where he is.

Those eyes stared straight at her like this, making it impossible to dodge in a hurry, but fortunately, the other party's gaze just swept away, and it seemed that she didn't notice her hiding behind the earthen wall.Then bowed his head and closed it.

The courtyard became silent again, Su Ruiran was still terrified as she held on to the earthen wall with one hand.

Nangong Ling, why did he appear here?Why can he come?What about his legs?

She couldn't think of an answer, but felt that her mind was in a mess, her whole heart was pounding because of nervousness, and she was flustered for a while, and her previous calmness had long since disappeared.

She leaned on the low wall with one hand and looked up towards the courtyard, only to see that the door was still closed tightly, and the windows on all sides were also tightly sealed, so she couldn't see what happened inside at all, and couldn't even hear a sound.

Calm down, this is not surprising, the ghost-masked man was originally the one in the "thorn", and it is reasonable for Nangong Ling to come here to see him.

Thinking this way, she gradually calmed down, and let her breath return to peace, then leaned a little closer to the room in the courtyard.

She stood on her toes, holding her breath every time she landed on the ground, as if she couldn't bear to startle a little dust.Like a frightened bird, he stopped from time to time and listened carefully to the movements around him.

In this way, she finally walked out of the room.

Although the door is intact from a distance, there are still traces of large and small insects on the white cloth screen window.She leaned forward slightly and looked inside through the small hole. The closer she got to the screen window, the slower her breathing became, until finally it was so slow that no one could notice a sound.

At this time, she finally saw the scene in the room clearly.

I thought Nangong Ling was here to meet the man in black, but when I looked inside, I realized that there was only Nangong Ling in this room.

What was even more puzzling was that he was sitting on a chair at this time, with a calm expression on his face, as if he was sitting in the study of the palace.It's just that it's different from the study room, there are no well-behaved servants to accompany it, and it is surrounded by a dilapidated scene, full of dust everywhere.

Su Ruiran's eyes fell on his legs involuntarily again, his legs had been removed from the bandages, and they looked intact, but he was sitting on a stool, making it impossible to confirm whether he could really walk normally again.

However, this answer is obviously not much doubt.

Just why would he do this?If his leg injury really healed, then why did he hide it from so many people?

Su Ruiran couldn't help frowning, although she didn't know why, but there was a trace of unspeakable displeasure in her heart.Even if Nangong Ling wanted to hide it from others, why did he hide it from her?

Looking at the room, he still sat calmly, Su Ruiran was sure that he was waiting for someone.She straightened up subconsciously, turned her head and looked around, and listened carefully to the movement around her. There was nothing unusual, and it didn't seem like someone was coming.

It stands to reason that if the ghost-masked man really belongs to the "thorn", then he should also obey Nangong Ling's orders, so it means that only Nangong Ling told him to wait, why didn't he come to talk about it.

But just when she was wondering, a voice suddenly came from behind: "You don't want to ask any more questions? You can die in peace."

She was startled when she heard Nangong Ling's voice, as if the voice was speaking in her ears.When she turned around, she saw that there was nothing behind her, and the doors and windows were still closed.And through the gap in the window, Nangong Ling's figure can still be seen.

He was still in the house, perhaps because the surrounding environment was too quiet, that made the words he said just now seem to be whispered in his own ear.

But the sentence just now did come from him. Because of this, Su Ruiran still felt a little nervous. What's going on?

However, before she could figure it out, Nangong Ling's voice came from the room again: "Okay, I will give you one more chance at the end, so that you can die clearly."

Su Ruiran secretly looked into the room, only felt that he lowered his head as if he was talking to someone, and sure enough, he bent down immediately.Su Ruiran's gaze sank immediately, but because of the angle of the hole, it happened to block the view below.

Su Ruiran immediately moved her body cautiously, and moved to another crack in the window, this time she could see the situation on the ground clearly.Sure enough, he saw Nangong Lingzheng bowing and stretching out his hands to tear off the white cloth stuffed in the mouth of a young girl. At this moment, the girl was lying on the ground with her limbs bound, and her eyes were covered with a layer of black cloth.

As soon as her mouth was blocked, the girl immediately said: "Who are you? Why did you bring me here? Let me go! Let me go!" The girl's tone revealed extreme panic and fear, and she writhed while calling for help. body, trying to break free from the shackles of the rope.However, it is clear that she is only trying in vain.

Su Ruiran didn't recognize the girl at first sight, after all, her face was covered with a black cloth, covering part of her appearance.But the moment she heard the voice, she immediately confirmed who it was.

Isn't this the servant who I sent Yin He to look for, but finally found that she disappeared mysteriously, but couldn't find her in the prime minister's house after all?

Why is she here?

Surprised, Su Ruiran quickly put all the things aside in her mind. According to the previous inference, it should be the ghost-masked man who kidnapped and took away this slave, but now only Nangong Ling is here.Moreover, Nangong Ling didn't bring anyone with him when he came in, so this servant must have been thrown here from the beginning.

So the ghost-masked man hijacked this servant and threw it here at first, and then just waited for Nangong Ling to come here?Just what is the purpose of this?

Compared with this, what she cares more about is what happened to Nangong Ling's leg injury?

The conversation in the room continued, and things didn't slow down because of Su Ruiran's contemplation.

"Instead of asking who I am, imagine why you are here." Nangong Ling continued indifferently, like ice that has been accumulated for thousands of years and has never melted, "You could have lived, but it was all because you saw something you shouldn't. something to watch."

"You are... that ghost." The girl's voice trembled slightly, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably because of the extreme fear.

"That's right." He admitted that it was so concise and neat, but it was as if a sharp knife pierced people's hearts, the sharp edges and corners didn't need any softening.He straightened up, looked down at the girl who was still struggling on the ground, and said coldly, "Originally, the ghost face was a move. No one would have thought that he would hide in the Prime Minister's Mansion and observe Su Chao's every move. If the irrelevant people see it and destroy the plan, then the irrelevant people will have to be sacrificed."

As soon as he finished speaking, the servants on the ground suddenly yelled hysterically: "I don't understand what you are talking about! I don't want to die! I beg you! If you let me go, I can do anything!"

"Unfortunately, it's too late."

"No! Please! Let me do anything!"

Nangong Ling didn't speak, but he squatted down and stretched out his hand around the girl's neck.

The girl struggled desperately, trying to shake off the shackles around her neck with all her strength. Tears rolled down her cheeks, while still not forgetting to shout in despair: "Don't! Don't! Please! Let me go!"

Nangong Ling still stared at her with a cold face, his expression unmoved.

Su Ruiran lay on the window and watched everything in the room quietly. Although she had seen Nangong Ling's indifferent appearance before, at this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little strange. Do girls start?
No, I must not just watch that girl die like this, nor can I just watch her kill innocent people like this.

Regardless of what might happen after being noticed, she was about to attack, but at this moment, she suddenly heard Nangong Ling's last words to the girl: "If you live, you will let her find out what I did Everything is being used, just to use her to deal with her father. I can't take this risk, so you must die."

As soon as the last word was uttered, before he could recover, Nangong Ling suddenly exerted force on his hand and instantly broke the girl's neck.

His technique was so fast that the opponent was killed before he could even make a sound.

When Su Ruiran came back to her senses, she saw the girl lying motionless on the ground, she had already lost her life.

On the way back home, Su Ruiran was in a daze all the time, she didn't even know how she left.Nangong Ling's words echoed repeatedly in his mind, as if possessed by a demon, and lingering like a nightmare.

He said he was using himself?

This doubt echoed in her mind all the time, but she only felt that her heart seemed to be squeezed by a pair of invisible hands. Every time she thought about it, she felt unspeakably sad and sad.

He went there resolutely, even leaving the girl's body in the ruins without looking back.

Such a ruthless him was in stark contrast to the man in the silent valley that night, with whom he knew nothing about sitting on the orchid.Su Ruiran felt strange like never before, who was the real him, she even began to suspect that she had never known this man before.

The most cruel injury in this world is nothing more than a sincere heart that is only used in the end.

She died tragically here in her previous life, and vowed to start over again in this life, but she never expected that she would still repeat the same mistakes in the end.

She felt powerless, her soul seemed to be emptied, and her body was just a shell.She fell to the side of the road all of a sudden, hitting her head on the icy cornerstone pillar, which was bitingly cold.

She just fell on the corner of the street, weeping in pain.

There were still people coming and going around, they just regarded her as a down-and-out young man, and no one paid any attention to her.

She forced her will to go back to the mansion, just because of Yin He's words, if she didn't go back on time, she would bring someone to look for her.But as soon as she reached the gate of her courtyard, before she had time to step in the gate, she suddenly tilted her body and fell to the ground.

"Miss, ma'am..."

……

Surrounded by a group of servants in a panic, she was helped to the inner room, but she still felt in a trance, and could only hear the endless noise around her.
