Chapter 57 Ambiguity (third update)

Mrs. Cui suddenly stood up and said, “I will work with you to get Zhiluo back as soon as possible.”

Mrs. Cui blamed herself very much.

The more I think about it, the more scared I become. Mrs. Zhao could be bitten by a poisonous snake. What if Zhiluo is bitten at night?

Bah, bah, bah, how could she think like that.

Her Zhiluo must be fine and nothing will happen to her.

Cui Hejin looked at his mother’s dazed look and said softly: “Mom, you are at home, I will go to the back mountain. If Zhiluo returns home, she will be anxious if there is no one around.”

The mountain forest is too dense, and Cui Hejin is also worried that if he takes one of the roads into the mountain to find someone, Jiang Zhiluo will come back from the other side.

Even so, Cui Hejin still has to find someone.

Mrs. Cui said worriedly: “It’s so late and the forest is so dense. How can we find it?”

Cui Hejin lit an oil lamp, carried it and walked outside the house, whispering: “Mom, there are some things you have to do.”

Before Mrs. Cui could say anything else, Cui Hejin was already walking towards the forest.

There is a road that everyone has walked on the outskirts of the mountain forest, forming a small path. After following this road into the forest, the depths of the mountain forest become dense.

But fortunately it had rained a few days ago, there was still moisture in the mountains and forests, and the soil on the surface was a little soft. Cui Hejin could identify one of the footprints.

 He walked forward step by step, following the footprints.

I don’t know how long I walked, but the night was getting darker and darker.

Cui Hejin also came to a cliff halfway up the mountain.

There are no footprints here at all. Looking at the surrounding environment, Cui Hejin’s expression changed.

 “Zhiluo…”

 “Zhiluo, are you there?”

 “Zhiluo…”

A sound like a guqin slowly sounded in the silent night.

 If you listen carefully, you can hear a note of worry in his voice.

Jiang Zhiluo is collecting medicinal materials behind a stone halfway up the mountain.

This key medicinal material is hidden on the edge of the cliff. It is difficult to pick it. It must be picked together with the roots to avoid damage.

 Hearing a clear and pleasant voice coming from the night, she thought it was an illusion.

She never expected that her name would be called out by a person, with a low and slightly hoarse tone, which sounded so nice and seemed to be able to easily touch people’s heartstrings.

Jiang Zhiluo originally thought it was an illusion, but after hearing a few words, she felt something was wrong.

 She stood up slowly, and then saw Cui Hejin standing behind the big stone with a lantern.

 He was dressed in a black plain robe, almost blending into the night.

He was holding a dim yellow oil lamp in his hand, which seemed to envelope his whole person in a lingering color.

At this time, the fine moonlight shone through the mottled leaves in the mountain forest, and also fell on him.

 Made him look like the pale moon in the sky, or like a phantom in the night, with a strange and beautiful sense of enchantment.

Jiang Zhiluo’s heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.

She even thought she was hallucinating before her eyes.

 “Cui…Cui Hejin?”

Jiang Zhiluo couldn’t believe that she would see Cui Hejin here. Could it be that some kind of monster had become so beautiful and came to seduce people?

At this time, from a short distance away, Jiang Zhiluo could almost see the thrilling brightness at the end of his narrow eyes.

Especially when his picturesque eyes looked at her quietly, there seemed to be a dark and seductive tone in them.

Cui Hejin slowly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jiang Zhiluo was intact and was sure it was her.

But before she could completely relax, a snake jumped out from under the cliff and attacked Jiang Zhiluo directly.

“careful!”

Cui Hejin’s expression changed, and with a move of his finger, a small blade directly pierced seven inches of the snake. “ah!”

Just now, Jiang Zhiluo was slightly distracted when she looked at Cui Hejin and did not notice the danger.

 But she instinctively felt something and had to avoid it reflexively.

 But she forgot that there was a cliff behind her. She just stepped back and bent over, and stepped directly into the air.

Just when she was about to fall, Cui Hejin jumped over, lay down directly on the edge of the cliff, and grabbed her wrist.

“you…”

Jiang Zhiluo stared blankly. It could be said that everything in front of her exceeded her imagination.

 So much so that Jiang Zhiluo was still in a state of confusion.

Cui Hejin only thought she was scared just now.

He turned pale, pulled Jiang Zhiluo up hard, and whispered: “Don’t be afraid!”

 These two simple words carry a different kind of tenderness in the silent night.

His voice was also so clean and gentle, gently tickling the tip of her heart like a feather.

Jiang Zhiluo took advantage of the night and saw Cui Hejin’s pale face. She also tried her best to step on the cliff and push up.

When Cui Hejin pulled Jiang Zhiluo up, he fell directly backwards due to inertia.

Jiang Zhiluo’s foot was accidentally bent just now, so that she couldn’t step on it firmly.

Because Cui Hejin was protecting Jiang Zhiluo, when he stepped back, Jiang Zhiluo fell directly into his arms.

Cui Hejin snorted, but still protected Jiang Zhiluo from falling to the ground. Cui Hejin fell to the ground instead, and his back seemed to hit something, but he endured not making a sound.

Jiang Zhiluo’s nose was filled with a clean and refreshing breath, with a faint dark fragrance, which was very seductive.

 She knew this was the aura of Cui Hejin.

Jiang Zhiluo reacted and came to her senses, hurriedly stood up and said: “I, I didn’t mean it!”

Oh my god, Cui Hejin doesn’t think she did it on purpose, right?

God knows that her feet were twisted just because she stepped on the cliff, and now they are in terrible pain.

 “That was really careless!”

Given Cui Hejin’s temperament, Jiang Zhiluo felt that he must be very concerned about it.

Looking at Jiang Zhiluo’s helpless look, Cui Hejin said in a low voice, “It doesn’t matter.”

Jiang Zhiluo felt that Cui Hejin might not want to have too close contact with her, otherwise his face seemed even paler.

However, she was still worried about him and whispered: “Are you okay? If not, I will help you up first.”

Jiang Zhiluo stretched out her hand tentatively, thinking that maybe he didn’t know how to use it.

Unexpectedly, Cui Hejin reached out and took her hand directly, and then stood up from the ground.

  A cool and warm touch was directly transmitted to the palm of her hand.

  It even has a feeling of electric shock and numbness.

When Cui Hejin stood up, Jiang Zhiluo quickly pulled her hand back, as if she was electrocuted.

 Fortunately, Cui Hejin also retracted his hand after standing up.

Jiang Zhiluo blinked and looked at Cui Hejin, feeling that he was different tonight than usual.

Jiang Zhiluo, who was so cold, said, “Are you the male demon in this forest?”

Hearing these words, Cui Hejin looked down at Jiang Zhiluo, as if there was a dark whirlpool in his eyes, trying to swallow people up.

 After a while, he smiled lazily, then looked at her with a half-smile and said, “What do you think?”

Speaking, Cui Hejin adjusted his clothes slowly, still looking like the noble man he was.

Jiang Zhiluo was even more confused. Cui Hejin had always been cold and distant, and had never smiled.
