Chapter 361: Foxes Are Confused Too
The hand that Lin Lezhi stretched out to him seemed to have great attraction to Xiao Yihuo. He was a little dazed for a moment and felt a little dizzy.
By the time he reacted, he actually reached out his hand and shook it.
Xiao Yihuo was almost unable to react. He could only feel his hand being clenched. As he felt a chill on his arm, his sleeve was lifted up, revealing the winding and twisted black lines on his arm.
Lin Lezhi's eyes suddenly tightened and he said, "It is indeed so."
When Lin Lezhi saw Xiao Yihuo hiding something just now, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Perhaps because he had been discovered and had nowhere to hide, Xiao Yihuo did not pull his hand back. His voice was low and forbearing, his eyes wavering as he asked, "...were you lying to me about what you just said?"
"It's like this, and you still..."
Lin Lezhi was speechless. He was still worried about this even though his body was in such a state. But when he met Xiao Yihuo's somewhat stubborn gaze, Lin Lezhi's words froze in his throat.
Lin Lezhi didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he felt that Xiao Yihuo seemed different from before, but he couldn’t put his finger on it.
"Let's go down first."
But Xiao Yihuo was surprisingly uncooperative and became very stubborn. Instead, he held Lin Lezhi's hand tightly, and his eyes showed determination, as if he had to hear the answer from Lin Lezhi's mouth.
Since Xiao Yihuo refuses to cooperate, there should be no problem in pulling him up from here.
But if Lin Lezhi wanted to get down from the roof, there was no ladder around and Xiao Yihuo refused to cooperate, so it would be a bit difficult for him.
He asks himself if he lied to him.
What about him?
Did he hide nothing from himself?
But at this moment, facing a patient who was poisoned and mentally unclear, Lin Lezhi could not ask these questions. In the end, he gave in and calmed Xiao Yihuo's emotions first.
He said seriously, "The test was real, but what I just said was absolutely not false."
Hearing Lin Lezhi say this, Xiao Yihuo was dazed for a moment, as if he had received an answer that satisfied him. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he slowed down his grip, but he still held Lin Lezhi's hand without letting go, and had no intention of getting up. Instead, he held it even tighter.
Lin Lezhi was helpless. Even though it hurt, he let him hold his hand. His eyes fell on the increasingly obvious black lines on Xiao Yihuo's arm. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were swaying.
I don’t know if it’s because of the poison, but it seems to have affected Xiao Yihuo’s mind. Now Xiao Yihuo seems to be in a chaotic state.
He was said to be lucid, but he was unable to communicate properly.
Those eyes, which were originally shrewd and deep, now seemed to be covered with a layer of mist.
Lin Lezhi was a little unsure, so he pointed at himself and asked, "Do you... know who I am?"
Xiao Yihuo stared at Lin Lezhi for a while, his eyes revealing a firm look as he said, "Jiang Lian'an."
Hearing that Xiao Yihuo did not mistake him for Nan Rongyi, Lin Lezhi felt a little happy for some reason.
Although he was not Jiang Lian'an, Xiao Yihuo did not overlap his figure with Nan Rongyi's.
Lin Lezhi's lips curled up into a barely perceptible smile, and he changed the way he communicated with Xiao Yihuo. His eyes were gentle, mixed with a hint of hurt as he said, "You... don't believe me?"
Xiao Yihuo's eyes froze for a moment, as if regaining some clarity of mind, and he immediately responded, "I believe you."
Lin Lezhi didn't expect Xiao Yihuo to respond so quickly and his answer was so firm, so a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Then he smiled and said, Lin Lezhi tried to use a coaxing tone, his voice soft and gentle: "Since you trust me, then... let's go down from this roof first, okay? It's too high up here and a bit cold."
Slow down.
Xiao Yihuo nodded slowly, his expression becoming more and more dazed. In fact, he didn't have much strength left and could hardly move. Every movement was extremely heavy for him, and he used almost all his strength to hold Lin Lezhi's hand tightly.
After insisting on taking Lin Lezhi away, he could no longer hold on and fainted.
As he fell, he looked at Lin Lezhi, whose figure was a little blurry, with a hint of guilt on his face, and murmured, "I'm sorry..."
I am sorry.
I'm sorry again.
Every apology is always so vague that it is difficult to tell whether it is because of what is happening at the moment or whether Xiao Yihuo has something else hidden deep in his heart.
But now Lin Lezhi no longer has time to delve into these matters.
The person who fell in his arms had an incredibly hot body. When Xiao Yihuo held his hand just now, he noticed that Xiao Yihuo's body temperature was too high. The temperature of his forehead seemed to burn the skin on his neck.
After Xiao Yihuo passed out, the poison in his body seemed to have no power to be suppressed anymore and spread wildly, spreading to his exposed skin.
Lin Lezhi was panicked.
In order to prevent everyone from worrying about him, Xiao Yihuo endured it for a long time and pretended to be nothing.
Previously, in the tree hole, the quick half a cup of tea was probably not enough to completely suppress the poison. He just suppressed the poison in a place where no one could see it.
His body had long been unable to bear the burden.
Lin Lezhi no longer cared about anything, nor did he intend to care about the agreement between him and Xiao Yihuo. He carried Xiao Yihuo on his back and ran to Qingchuan's room and knocked on Qingchuan's door.
Not long after Qingchuan fell asleep, he heard a knock on the door. He put on a coat and opened the door sleepily. When he saw Lin Lezhi appear in front of his door carrying Xiao Yihuo on his back, there was a moment of surprise in his eyes.
"Lezhi, how come..."
But then, after noticing that Xiao Yihuo was not in the right state, his pupils suddenly tightened, and the sleepiness in his eyes instantly dissipated. After glancing around and seeing that there was no one else, he immediately said, "Bring him in first."
After Qingchuan opened the door, Lin Lezhi smelled a scent of medicine. After entering the room, the scent became more obvious.
Xiao Yihuo seemed to realize that he had arrived in Qingchuan's room. His brows suddenly tightened, as if he wanted to wake up, but because his body had reached its limit, no matter how hard he tried, he could only frown.
After Qingchuan lit the sesame oil lamp in the room, the black lines spreading on Xiao Yihuo's body appeared even more twisted and terrifying under the light of the fire.
The waiting time was undoubtedly anxious. Lin Lezhi clenched his hands tightly. Although he was worried about Xiao Yihuo's condition, he didn't dare to keep his eyes on him for a long time. Only when Xiao Yihuo unconsciously made a short low groan because of discomfort, he dared to take a quick look and then lowered his head.
Fortunately, Qingchuan was treating Xiao Yihuo, and the fragrance of medicine in the room seemed to have a calming effect, which could somewhat relieve Lin Lezhi's tension and anxiety.
I don’t know how long it took, but when Qingchuan finally stabilized Xiao Yihuo’s condition, it was already bright outside.
"Lezhi, Ah Xu is fine now, you don't have to worry."
After being busy for most of the hour, Qingchuan sat down at the table and glanced at Xiao Yihuo, who was lying weakly on the bed. He said with a look of self-blame, "I didn't expect the poison in Ah Xu's body to rage to this extent. It's all my fault that my medical skills are not good enough and I can't cure him."
"sorry."
Qingchuan was slightly startled and said, "Lezhi, this matter has nothing to do with you, so why should you apologize for it? Thanks to you, Lezhi, for finding him in time and bringing him to me, I was able to save his life. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
"I……"
Lin Lezhi glanced at Xiao Yihuo lying on the bed, and after hesitating for a moment, he told Qingchuan what he had concealed, and also briefly explained why he and Xiao Yihuo had encountered each other tonight.
After listening to this, the worry in Qingchuan's eyes became more obvious, but he did not mean to blame Lin Lezhi at all.
"Even if it was Ah Xu who asked you to hide it from us, Le Zhi knows you don't need to blame yourself for this. Ah Xu has always been like this."
He looked at Xiao Yihuo, his eyes filled with hesitation and worry. "Whenever the poison was about to take effect, he was afraid that we would find out and worry about him, so he would not stay in his room. He would always hide alone and quietly detoxify himself. The next day, he would appear in front of us as if nothing had happened and he was healthy."
As Qingchuan spoke, the worry in his eyes grew stronger, and his eyes darkened as he said, "This kind of out-of-control situation has happened before. Fortunately, we found him in time, but the toxins in Ah Xu's body had not yet reached such a serious level."
