Lights on the other side

Chapter 9 Rainy Night

Pei Shi opened the door. He was wearing a middle coat and a coat over his shoulders. His hair was all down and a few strands were hanging down his chest. He looked a little lazy. It seemed that he was about to go to bed.

He was a little surprised to see Li Ruoci standing outside the door, half-drenched.

"Is something wrong?"

Li Ruoci explained the reason, Pei Shi turned sideways and let him in.

There was a candle burning in the room, and the light was a little dim.

Li Ruoci found a stool and sat down, and pulled off the hair tie with a strong hand, and the wet hair fell into the water.He lowered his head and let the water fall to the ground.

Pei Shi said, "Take off your wet clothes too."

Li Ruoci raised her head: "What should I wear when I take it off?"

Pei Shi pulled off the coat that was draped over his shoulders and handed it to him, saying, "Be careful of catching a cold, put the wet clothes on the table to dry, otherwise you will have to wear wet clothes tomorrow."

Li Ruoci hesitated for a moment, but still took the clothes from Pei Shi.

He checked his body. His upper body was very wet. Xie Yun had been holding him just now, causing him to be poured by the rain without moving. His lower body was fine, but Xie Yun blocked it for him, so he just took off his shirt. down.

When he turned around, he found that Pei Shi's eyes were a little unnatural, as if he didn't know where to put them.

Li Ruoci laughed and said, "They're all men, what are you afraid of?"

Pei Shi just looked over, and when he saw Li Ruoci's chest, he couldn't help being startled.

The water on Li Ruoci's hair slid down his neck. Following Pei Shi's gaze, he also realized what Pei Shi was looking at. There was a hideous scar on his left chest and heart, which formed a strong contrast with the surrounding smooth skin. The contrast alone looks very visually impactful.

"Are you curious about this?"

Pei Shi quickly looked back: "No."

Li Ruoci casually put Pei Shi's clothes on her body, and pulled the skirt to cover the scar.

He said: "Actually, it's nothing. When I was young, a group of robbers thought I was my aunt's son, so they tied me up and demanded a ransom. Of course, my aunt's family refused to pay me. In a fit of anger, the robber stabbed me down with a knife. In this position, fortunately, I was lucky and did not die."

Pei Shi pursed his lips and asked, "Did you always live this kind of life when you were young?"

Li Ruoci smiled and said, "No."

Of course not, since he came to this world, he has been alone, how can he have any aunt?

Naturally, the scar was not pierced by any gangster, but he himself took a knife and cut it out one by one.

But no one knew about it, and he was glad that no one knew.

How many times, he thought he was going to die, but unfortunately he didn't die, only the last sentence was right, but luckily he was fatal.

Pei Shi took out another set of mattresses from the side cabinet and handed them to him: "There's only one bed, don't you mind?"

"Will you go out if you mind?"

The quilt hit Li Ruoci directly.

Li Ruoci took the quilt and asked, "Are you sleeping in it or am I sleeping in it?"

Pei Shi said, "I'll sleep outside."

"Okay." Li Ruoci didn't hesitate, and lay down directly, pulling the quilt over her body.

Pei Shi looked at him for two seconds, put out the candle with a cover, and lay down too.

The bed was so narrow that the two of them had to squeeze together, arms touching arms.Li Ruoci tried to raise his arm helplessly, but found that there was nowhere to place it, so he had to put it down again.

He was wearing Pei Shi's clothes, and Pei Shi was lying beside him, very close to him, his nose was filled with the breath of Pei Shi, and he couldn't avoid it even if he wanted to.

To be honest, the smell on Pei Shi's body is not annoying, on the contrary, it smells nice and faint. If he wasn't too sensitive, he might not have smelled it at all.

Li Ruoci hadn't slept with others much, so she hadn't fallen asleep. The rain outside was pouring down, and this place seemed isolated from the world.

After a while, Pei Shi seemed to be sleeping uncomfortably, so he moved.Li Ruoci immediately felt that his hair was being pressed down, he stretched out his hand to pull it, and when he turned his head, he saw Pei Shi's peaceful and peaceful face.

Pei Shi fell asleep unprepared, and even faintly childish.

Li Ruoci said in his heart: In the firelight, the face he slashed with a sword is not like this.

He lay down again and tried to make himself fall asleep, but it didn't take long before he heard another knock on the door.

The house where Xie Yun lived was leaking again.

Pei Shi woke up, his face was not very good, he got out of bed, put on his shoes, lit a candle, and went to open the door.

It was not Xie Yun outside the door.

It was a young man in black, with light lips, clear and cold brows, and raindrops dripping down the tips of his hair.

His black clothes were embroidered with silver patterns, giving him an air of nobility, and he didn't look embarrassed even when his whole body was soaked.

He said, "Pei Shi."

"Flawless?"

Hearing how Pei Shi called him, Li Ruoci knew who the person outside the door was, Sheng Wuxia, he had heard this name often in Lian Yetian, but he had never met him.

"How do you..."

Sheng Wuxia explained calmly, "I came back when it rained too much."

Pei Shi asked again: "Are you alone?"

"No, the senior sister is also here."

"Then why don't you come in?"

A faint laughter came from outside, and a woman flashed out from the darkness. She was better than Sheng Wuxia, because she was wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat. At this moment, she took the bamboo hat in her hand and untied the coir raincoat.

She said: "You two big men are disheveled, how can I get in?"

Pei Shi was only wearing a middle coat, and Li Ruoci on the bed was not much better. The coat seemed to have a big collar, revealing a large area of ​​skin loosely.

After realizing these problems, Li Ruoci quickly gathered up his clothes.

"Sister Man'er." Pei Shi nodded slightly.

Li Mo'er and Sheng Wuxia walked in, she looked around and asked, "Who is this beautiful brother?"

Pei Shi turned around and took a look at Li Ruoci, and the introduction was very simple: "My fellow student, Lin Ruoyan."

After Sheng Wuxia and the others rested for a while, the three of them sat at the table and began to talk about the situation of the past two days.

Li Mo'er said: "We are not much better than you. Since we came here, nothing like this has happened again. No one went up the mountain, and no one disappeared. So Wuxia and I decided to go up the mountain today, and the mountain is very peaceful. , birds and beasts, flowers, birds, fish and insects, just be what they should be, and at night, when it rains, we will come back."

Pei Shi asked: "Then what does the elder mean when he said that the situation is not good? I think there should be no problem with Wuxia."

Li Mo'er continued: "Before us, some people from the small sect also came here, but they also ended up with... that kind of result, if it was an ordinary evil, they should be able to deal with it, but this time it is obviously different, and I Seeing that Fengcheng is full of aura, Fengshui is not bad, it doesn't look like a place where evil things can breed, anyway, this incident is very strange, I have a very bad premonition."

Pei Shi nodded, expressing his understanding.

"The rain will stop tomorrow, let's take a look and rest first," he said.

Under Pei Shi's eyes, Li Ruoci consciously got up from the bed.

Afterwards, Li Mo'er slept on the bed, and the three of them lay down on the table for the whole night.
