It's him ..

Li Qingling was shocked by the person in front of him, but she quickly reacted, using the arrow in her hand, she stabbed it into the man's eyebrows without hesitation.

The man never expected to meet Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo here, he was so defenseless and an arrow pierced through his forehead.

"You .." He stared at Li Qingling with his eyes wide open, and before he could finish, he fell.

Li Qingling did not bother to wipe the blood on her face. She pursed her lips and cleaned up the blood on the ground before pulling Liu Zhimo into the cave.

Together they dragged the man into the cave and moved the stone back to its original position.

After doing all of this, Li Qingling sat on the ground as if she remembered what she had done. Her entire body trembled and she hugged herself, burying her head between her arms.

She .. Murder ...

At the moment of killing, she did not feel anything. Her mind was thinking, she could not let him attract others, she could not let him kill Liu Zhimo and her.

After she was done, she felt scared.

In her previous life, when she lived in peace, she had never thought that she would one day kill someone.

Although this man was an enemy to them, and if he didn't die, then she would die with Liu Zhimo.

Liu Zhimo reached out and pulled Li Qingling into his embrace, tightly hugged her, patted her back, and coaxed in her ear, "He's a bad guy, she deserved to die, don't blame yourself." Even though she had a very hard heart, her heart was actually the softest.

He was really afraid that she would leave a knot in his heart because of this.

Li Qingling hugged Liu Zhimo back forcefully, and her vague voice came out from his chest, "I killed someone. Ink, I killed someone." Would he be afraid to see her like this?

Feeling the fear and discomfort in her heart, Liu Zhimo pushed her away slightly. He reached out his hands to hold her face and stared into her eyes, then said seriously: "Xiao Ling, listen, if you don't kill this person, this person will kill us. If we die, who will take care of our younger brothers and sisters?" The moment he saw the enemy, he had already picked up the stone at his feet. It was just that she moved a step faster than him, otherwise, he would have killed her.

"But .."

"No buts." Liu Zhimo immediately interrupted Li Qingling, and spoke with an unyielding tone. "He is an enemy, she must have killed many commoners, and many people. He deserves to die." He instilled these thoughts into her over and over again, hoping that she would listen to him and untie the knot in her heart.

Hearing Liu Zhimo's words, Li Qingling slowly calmed down. She nodded and said, "Yes, he is an enemy. He killed a lot of people. Thinking of this, her heart felt a bit better.

"Yes, you did it for the sake of the people. You didn't do anything wrong."

Li Qingling acknowledged him and buried her head back into Liu Zhimo's chest. Hearing his powerful heartbeat, her tensed body slowly relaxed.

As if comforting a child, Liu Zhimo stroked her back without stopping, allowing her to walk out of the inner demon.

After a long time, she finally whispered, "Thank you, Ink." If he wasn't here, she wouldn't have come out of her self-blame so quickly.

"I'm your fiancé, your future husband. You don't have to be so courteous to me." He wanted to support her so that she wouldn't be harmed in the slightest, but now, he wasn't strong enough to hurt her.

This really made him feel a little depressed, but he would continue to work hard. He would definitely let her stay under his wing and live happily ever after.

Hearing that, Li Qingling acknowledged and hugged him tightly.

"Alright, I'm fine now. Hurry up and pack up!" After half an hour, Li Qingling gently pushed Liu Zhimo away and said softly, "I don't know if this man has leaked out this place or not."

"I don't think so. The food is still here." Liu Zhimo stood up, he looked around, and his gaze landed on the tiled pot that was set up, and said, "He is here to eat alone."

There were a lot of soldiers that came to Matsuyama, so they definitely did not eat much. Otherwise, those soldiers would not go hunting from time to time.

If he divulges this information, I'm afraid he won't get much to eat.

In order to make himself better, he would not leak out this place, but fortunately, he was a bit selfish, so he was able to keep the food.

Li Qingling avoided the man who was lying on the ground. She looked around the cave and agreed with what Liu Zhimo said.

"I'll carry the food back this time. I'll leave the rest for next time!" Li Qingling suggested that for them right now, food was the most important thing. Everything else was secondary, they could keep it for later.

Liu Zhimo nodded, "Alright, we'll leave after it gets dark!" Walking at night, the chances of encountering enemies were lower. Besides, they could drag the man outside while it was dark and lose him.

Li Qingling also thought about this and agreed.

They stayed in the cave until it was dark, then they carried the man out and left him in the hidden thicket of thorns. When they were certain that it was hard to find him, they returned to the cave, carrying the food and went back under the moon.

The road at night was not easy to walk on. Peng, Liu Zhimo fell on the ground once again, Li Qingling put down the food, anxiously helped him up, and asked him how was he?

Liu Zhimo rubbed his knees that were in pain, and said embarrassedly, "It's nothing."

Li Qingling had never fallen before, but she fell down twice.

The sky was too dark, so Li Qingling could not see Liu Zhimo's expression clearly. She could only restrain the worry in her heart, and remind him to be careful before continuing to carry the food back.

Although Liu Zhimo had injured his leg, he was afraid that she would notice, so he gritted his teeth and carried the food away before following her back.

Li Qingling took Liu Zhimo into consideration and walked very slowly.

This caused them to leave for nearly two hours before returning. The old man lit an oil lamp and looked at them with a frown. "Why did you return so late? The children are all worried to death. I finally managed to coax them to sleep." His eyes swept across Liu Zhimo's leg. Seeing the bloodstains on it, he asked anxiously, "Little Mo brat, are you injured?"

He asked as he pulled up Liu Zhimo's pants on his leg.

"Don't..." Liu Zhimo wanted to stop him, but it was too late, the old man had already pulled up his pants.

When the old man and Li Qingling saw that he had fallen to the ground and his knee was still bleeding, they gasped. How painful was that?

"You're so seriously injured, why didn't you tell me?" Li Qingling glared at him and said with a pained heart, "Come over and sit." She pulled him to a stool and sat him down.

Liu Zhimo smiled at her, "It's just that it looks a little scary, it's not painful." If he told her, she would have to carry all the food on his back.

It was because he knew her that he didn't want to tell her.

Li Qingling's face turned cold, the corners of her mouth twitched, she reached out to press on his knee, and he immediately gasped in pain, "Let's see if you still dare to try to be brave next time?" In her heart, she chided herself for being too careless and did not notice his mistake. "Old man, I'll trouble you to stop his bleeding."

The old man said awkwardly, "You don't have any Herba Hemostadiae at home? "I'm done." He wanted to go out and pick some, but he was worried about the kids, so he didn't go out.

Hearing that, Li Qingling frowned, "I will go out to pick some!" With that, she stood up and reached for the oil lamp in the old man's hand.

"There's no need, the wound is not big, we can stop the bleeding even without the Herba Hemostadiae." Liu Zhimo grabbed her hand. It was so late and he didn't want her to go out. "Don't make me worry, okay?"

Facing his slightly pleading eyes, a moment later, Li Qingling slowly let out a breath and nodded in compromise.

She turned around to fetch some water and dripped it into the water before bringing it over and helping him clean his wounds with a piece of cloth.

After cleaning up the wound, she was relieved when she found that the wound really didn't bleed much.

The Old Man tore off a few clean strips of cloth and helped Liu Zhimo bandage his wounds before urging them to sleep.

Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo were indeed tired, they fell asleep the moment they laid down.

Not long after, Li Qingling had a nightmare as she continuously said words of apology.

This movement of hers had woken Liu Zhimo and the others up.

The old man lit the oil lamp, and Liu Zhimo ran over to Li Qingling's side, wanting to wake her up. However, he was grabbed by the old man, and when he lifted his head, he only saw the old man shaking his head and saying, if he pushed her awake like this, it would shock her to the core.

Hearing the old man's words, Liu Zhimo could only reach out and hug Li Qingling, softly coaxing her in his ear.

After being coaxed for a long time, Li Qingling gradually stopped speaking nonsense, and her expression calmed down.

"Zhi Moge, what's wrong with my sister?" Li Qingfeng looked at Li Qingling worriedly, then raised his head and asked Liu Zhimo.

Liu Zhimo was afraid of scaring the children, so he shook his head and said: "I had a nightmare." Pausing, "You can continue sleeping. Don't worry, I'm watching over her. She'll be fine."

Li Qingfeng pursed his lips, made a sound of acknowledgement, and then laid back down, extending his hand to lightly pat Li Qingning, who had almost woken up. Seeing that Li Qingning had fallen asleep again, he then relaxed and continued sleeping.

When the few children went back to sleep, the old man looked at Liu Zhimo with a serious expression.

If not for something happening, Li Qingling would not have had such a nightmare. She was obviously shocked.

Liu Zhimo looked at Li Qingling in pain, sighed, and told the old man everything.

After the old man finished listening, he looked at Li Qingling with a pained gaze. It was obvious that this child had a mental demon, which was why she had such a nightmare.
