C53 The Masked Man

Sikou Nianxi did not even have the time to shout when tears mixed with the messy hair in the wind blurred her eyes. She only heard the sound of branches breaking in the wind. Sikou Nianxi's entire body was cold. She opened her eyes wide and looked at Liu Jing's body that was slowly falling like leaves. Sikou Nianxi desperately shook her head and her voice was already hoarse. "No! Liu Jing!"

Sikou Nianxi lowered her voice as she shouted, "No! Please don't... " The wind was still whistling, Liu Jing's body had already completely disappeared into the cliff. Sikou Nianxi's eyes were empty. She only held onto the vines beside her numbly.

It was as if Liu Jing was still holding a fan in front of her. He was dressed in white and had a faint smile on his face. He had a peerless appearance. His ears were still filled with his teasing and cool voice. Sikou Nianxi shook her head violently and closed her eyes in pain.

She could not remember how long she had climbed up the vine. When Sikou Nianxi climbed up the cliff again, her hands were already covered with blood. She subconsciously called Liu Jing. But she suddenly realized that the blood on her hands was not hers. It was... it was Liu Jing's.

Without the three men in black, the top of the cliff was still as quiet as before. It was as if nothing happened after that.

Stunned, Sikou Nianxi stood beside the cliff. The wind whistled by her ears. Sikou Nianxi lowered her head and looked down the cliff. The bottomless abyss under her feet was so deep that she could not see the bottom. The hazy mist interweaved and Sikou Nianxi could not see clearly. However, Liu Jing's face seemed to be reflected under the cliff. He still looked like he was smiling but not smiling. His eyes were bright like stars and the smile on his lips was shallow.

Liu Jing slowly stretched out a hand, just like many scenes in Sikou Nianxi's memory. Every time he helped her onto the horse, he would stretch out his hand to carry her on the wind on the roof.

Liu Jing's voice was cool, but it was not very clear in the fog. "Nianxi, come." Sikou Nianxi also held out her hand in the fog. But Liu Jing did not reach out to hold her hand as usual. Instead, his body leaned further and further away.

"Liu Jing!" Sikou Nianxi was a little afraid. She quickly took a step forward and wanted to grab Liu Jing's hand. She stepped into the air and leaned down the cliff. Liu Jing's appearance disappeared in front of her.

Sikou Nianxi shouted, "Liu Jing!" Suddenly, she shivered and her consciousness finally regained its clarity. She thought that she was going to fall off the cliff again, but she suddenly realized that she had been carried by someone from behind.

"You don't want to live anymore?" Unlike Liu Jing's cool voice, the man's voice behind him was magnetic. "What? If Liu Jing dies, you won't be able to live anymore?"

Liu Jing was dead? Sikou Nianxi could not help but feel pain in her chest. Liu Jing was no longer there.

Putting Sikou Nianxi firmly on the ground, the man saw that Sikou Nianxi was still in a daze. He sighed and said, "The dead are already gone, but the living still have to live. Who are you doing this to? Aren't you going to take revenge for your parents? Why, are you looking for your parents' murderer like this? If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have saved you just now. "

Sikou Nianxi was stunned when she heard that. She quickly turned her head to look at the man. She saw that he was dressed in black clothes and had a high crown. However, he wore a silver mask on his face, making it impossible for others to see his appearance.

She frowned. Sikou Nianxi frowned and looked at the man. Her voice was alert. "Who are you? "Why did you save me? How did you know so much about me?"

The masked man said with a smile," You asked me so many questions at once, and you taught me how to answer them? " After a pause, the man continued, "You just need to know that I mean you no harm."

Sikou Nianxi frowned and stared at the mask on the man's face and said, "You are not willing to show your true face to others. How can I dare to believe that you do not have any ill intentions towards me?"

"What a sharp-tongued girl." The man smiled and shook his head. "Didn't you want to see my face? Unfortunately, I have my reasons. Please forgive me for not being able to satisfy the girl's wishes. As for what the girl said because I didn't reveal my true face and refused to believe that I didn't mean any harm, that girl is really thinking too much. If I really had ill intentions towards the girl, then why did I save you just now? I asked you to die with that Young Master Liu Jing of yours. "Wouldn't it be more convenient?"

"You..." The moment Liu Jing was mentioned, Sikou Nianxi's heart began to ache. But Liu Jing died for her. She had to live well no matter what. She had to live well with his hope. Furthermore, he had yet to take revenge and his brother had yet to find him. How could he die just like that?

Taking a deep breath, Sikou Nianxi secretly said to herself in her heart, The current me is not only living for myself, but also bringing Liu Jing's hope to live in this world.

The masked man saw that Sikou Nianxi did not speak the whole time and asked her with a smile, "What is it? You still don't believe me?"

Sikou Nianxi finally came back to her senses. Looking at the masked man in front of her, Sikou Nianxi thought in her heart. What he said just now was not bad. If he was really in the same group as those who wanted to kill her, then he did not need to save her just now.

But no matter what the man in front of her had in mind for her, Sikou Nianxi did not want to be entangled with him anymore. Right now, she just wanted to do what Liu Jing had told her. She touched the seven-colored lotus in her medical bag. Sikou Nianxi let out a sigh of relief. The current her only wish was to return quickly. She wanted to give the seven-colored lotus to Cui Wei and Zhao Lee to treat their lives.

Thinking of this, Sikou Nianxi raised her head and looked at the masked man. Her voice was calm and unsurprised. "Thank you for saving my life just now, sir. I will thank you here. " I still have things to do. I bid you farewell here. "

Sikou Nianxi turned around and left after she finished speaking. The man's lazy voice came from behind her. "What? I am so annoying. Miss is not even willing to talk to me for a while?"

Sikou Nianxi stopped and frowned. She secretly calculated in her heart what she should do to get rid of that man. That man smiled and came to Sikou Nianxi from behind. He lowered his head and smiled at Sikou Nianxi, "I followed Miss Si Kou all the way. Why, does Miss Si Kou really not know me at all?"

Follow me all the way? Sikou Nianxi looked up at the man in the mask and frowned. Suddenly, Sikou Nianxi seemed to have thought of something. Pointing at the man in front of her, her tone was full of disbelief, "You... you are the man wearing the mask?"
