C813 Torture
After returning to Guest House, Lin Yuhan, Helian Ruyi, Helian Zeyi and Hee Lin were there as well. The four of them started their "awkward" life again, pretending as if nothing had happened.
It would be fine if they did not see each other, but what they were most afraid of was sitting together and eating. No matter how careful they were, there were still a lot of unexpected situations. That aura, that atmosphere. . . It was simply suffocating. Even though Hee Lin and Helian Zeyi were doing everything they could to help mediate the situation, the facts proved that. . . Even if the two of them were trying their best, it was all in vain. It would even backfire and make the situation even more awkward.
The only thing that could slightly ease the awkwardness was the fear and fear towards Jue Wuchen. It was truly a bit of a joke.
Especially after lunch, the few of them had basically entered into a state of alert. In total, The first time the Golden Venomous Silkworm was poisoned was one day and one night, and from here to the ice cave. . . It took less than a day. Yesterday, Yang Shihan and Jue Wuchen set off as soon as dawn broke. Under ideal circumstances, The two of them would be able to rush back before nightfall today at the earliest.
Of course, this was only in their ideal state, because in the wilderness. . . It was hard to predict what they would encounter along the way, and there were also some trivial matters. For example, food, accommodation, and so on would take up some time. Furthermore, Yang Shihan was a weak and cultured woman. Basically, she did not even know martial arts, so the speed at which they interacted would be much slower. Furthermore, after the Golden Venomous Silkworm's poison was released. . . Due to the double torture of the Golden Venomous Silkworm poison and the blood Venomous Insect, Yang Shihan's physical condition would definitely be very poor. Therefore, the two of them would definitely not set off immediately. Instead, they would stay in the grass hut beside the ice cave and cultivate for a period of time. In addition, It was also because of Yang Shihan that the two of them would not travel at night.
In this way, the most likely time for the two of them to return was after noon tomorrow.
But they were not afraid of ten thousand, they were just afraid of what might happen. It was not absolutely impossible for them to return now. For example, Yang Shihan had died, and Jue Wuchen had completely collapsed. Anger, madness. He left Yang Shihan's corpse behind and returned alone. Or rather, he came back with Yang Shihan's corpse. With this, with Jue Wuchen's Lightness Skill, It might not even be two days and one night. The fastest would be around lunchtime.
Of course, this was the most terrifying result. The result that everyone didn't want to face the most was also the result that they should be on guard against.
Not only the Guest House, but also the Three Spring House had started to be on alert.
Lin Yuhan was guarding the courtyard while Helian Zeyi, Helian Ruyi, and Hee Lin were gathered together, which was the room Hee Lin was currently staying in.
Time passed little by little. There was no movement, no movement at all. Not only the Guest House, but also the Three Spring House and the hidden sentries along the way did not make any movements. Of course, the best news right now was that there was no news.
At dinner, a group of people came over in a panic. Hee Lin, Helian Ruyi and a few others also ate in fear and trepidation. Because they were worried, it was such a cold day. Hee Lin and Helian Ruyi still decided to open the curtain and watch the wind eat. And the atmosphere at the dining table. Although Lin Yuhan and Helian Ruyi were still very reserved, there was also an unconcealable awkwardness between the two of them. But whether it was reserved or not. . . The awkwardness did not affect Hee Lin and Helian Ruyi at all. Because these two people only had worries and fear in their hearts and the only thing they cared about was only Yang Shihan and Helian Ruyi.
After lunch, they once again returned to calm, filled with fear, and an uncertain future.
Lin Yuhan was still outside the courtyard, and the three of them were still inside the house. In fact, after lunch, Helian Ruyi suggested that she go outside and let Lin Yuhan practice in the house. Hee Lin and Helian Zeyi also said that they were willing to go with Helian Ruyi to guard the house, but they were both rejected by Lin Yuhan.
At dusk, the night gradually fell. The north wind wreaked havoc, but the weather was still extremely cold. Drops of water turned into ice. The darkness of the night was always filled with endless unknowns, causing the four of them to feel even more afraid.
This could be said to be the most critical and dangerous night, but the reason was still the same. If Yang Shihan unfortunately died, Jue Wuchen would most likely come back tonight, and he would most likely start a massacre tonight.
Helian Ruyi and Hee Lin's arrangement was that Lin Yuhan and Helian Zeyi would keep watch in the first half of the night, and Hee Lin and Helian Ruyi would keep watch in the second half of the night. However, Lin Yuhan rejected them. Lin Yuhan only said that he alone was enough, so he left the room.
Of course, Helian Zeyi also followed him out. At the beginning, Lin Yuhan still said that he didn't need to. He said that he alone was enough. Helian Zeyi didn't need to be frozen here. He just wanted Helian Zeyi to go back and rest. However, he was casually rejected by Helian Zeyi. Lin Yuhan did not say anything else. As for Helian Zeyi, he "served" Lin Yuhan. It was indeed a service. He served tea and poured water, and even lit a big pot of fire in the courtyard. He didn't waste time talking nonsense when he was a child. The two of them got along quite well.
After all, Helian Zeyi had been living on One-Line Mountain since he was young, and Duanmu Loongchou had never spoiled him. All of his life skills were very strong. Furthermore, Helian Zeyi had a good personality, and he had always admired Lin Yuhan. Of course, the most important thing was. . . Helian Zeyi also knew that his sister had fallen in love with Lin Yuhan. Therefore, when he looked at Lin Yuhan now, he felt a kind of ingratiating feeling towards his "future brother-in-law. "
Just like that, until the latter half of the night, Hee Lin and Helian Ruyi got up one after another and left the room. They originally wanted to replace the two of them, but who knew that they were rejected by Lin Yuhan. Lin Yuhan only said that it was safer for him to be here. Hee Lin and Helian Ruyi did not insist too much. Of course, the two of them also knew that they would not be able to convince Lin Yuhan.
Just like that, the hardest night was still endured by the few of them in fear.
Hee Lin's heart slightly lost a breath. She felt that things were developing in a positive direction.
Daybreak, morning, breakfast, morning. . . Time continued to torture. It was gradually time for lunch. Hee Lin was even looking forward to Jue Wuchen's appearance now. Suddenly turning around, Yang Shihan and Jue Wuchen suddenly appeared at the entrance of Guest House. After that, Yang Shihan was safe and sound.
Amid the complicated feelings of worry, longing, fear and anticipation, lunch time came again. The food was sent by a few maidservants stumbling over. Except for Lin Yuhan, no one else had an appetite. Logically speaking, it was time to return. However, the top of the clouds was unusually calm.
Furthermore, there was still no news even after dinner. Hee Lin's heart began to beat again. . .
She was restless and then the sky turned dark. The night was boundless and she did not know what was hidden under the night sky and what would suddenly appear. . .
There was nothing to worry about. Everyone could not sleep either.
Lin Yuhan and Helian Zeyi were guarding outside the house. Helian Ruyi and Hee Lin were in the house and they would go out from time to time. The entire Guest House was brightly lit. Even the entire Spirit Condor Palace was brightly lit.
Just like that, another night passed. It was almost a suffocating night.
The fourth day, early morning, breakfast, lunch and afternoon. . . It was always calm and unusually calm. Until dinner time, Jue Wuchen finally came back. However, only Jue Wuchen stood quietly at the entrance of Guest House, staring at everything in the courtyard.
