Chapter 229 The fog is light and unclear



Chapter 229 The fog is light and unclear

Seeing Guan Ziheng's body covered in flames falling forward, Lin Lezhi's brain rushed towards Guan Ziheng like a kite with a broken string.

Just when Lin Lezhi was about to touch Guan Ziheng.

Sudden.

A huge force suddenly pulled Lin Lezhi back.

He could only watch Guan Ziheng's body fall down in front of him, and then fall into the thick fog, and disappear out of sight.

“Stop——!”

There was a stern voice of dissuasion from behind, but Lin Lezhi seemed to be unable to hear anything. He was not even aware of the pain in his wrist being pinched.

I just wanted to struggle to break free from this shackle, and shouted: "Let me go, Ziheng..."

"Look carefully, there is a cliff ahead!"

The scolding behind him made Lin Lezhi sober up briefly.

Lin Lezhi twisted his neck stiffly downwards, but he didn't dare to look down.

Looking out of the corner of his eye.

In the rising mist, I could vaguely see that I was standing on the edge of a cliff.

"Lezhi, you don't need to persuade me anymore. Since I'm here, I have no intention of leaving. Since we came to Pinghai Town together, we must leave together in peace."

"We agreed to go back together. I won't leave alone."

"I thought I could make a lot of money following you, but I didn't make any money. I even lost the money for rent."

After a long while, Lin Lezhi dared to look directly at the fog, but he could not find the familiar figure.

Can……

His voice is still ringing in my ears.

It seems like...

Guan Ziheng is not dead.

"It doesn't matter who found it. He is born to be a good detective."

Sudden.

Another familiar voice came to my ears.

Lin Lezhi's eyes suddenly shrank, and his pupils trembled slightly.

In an instant, Lin Lezhi's face lost the remaining color, his breathing became heavy and rapid, and the rapidly beating heart buried in his chest seemed to be torn apart by someone.

Then, the image of Ji Hang lying in a pool of blood with a knife in his heart appeared in Lin Lezhi's eyes.

The rapidly beating heart was torn apart by countless invisible hands.

The picture that appears before my eyes.

A thud.

Completely tearing Lin Lezhi's heart apart.

Lin Lezhi suddenly lost his strength, staggered, and could no longer stand.

Fortunately, Xiao Yihuo was standing behind Lin Lezhi and used his body as support to hold Lin Lezhi up, preventing him from falling to the ground.

Although Lin Lezhi's mind was broken, he knew that it was Xiao Yihuo who arrived in time and saved his life.

he knows.

He should say thank you.

Can……

He didn't want to say anything now, and he couldn't say anything.

Lin Lezhi tried hard to stand up straight with his own strength, and then used his arms to slightly exert force to break free from the hand that was holding his wrist tightly.

The place where Xiao Yihuo grabbed my hand felt slightly stinging and red.

The people who followed behind were all shocked after seeing this scene.

Zhou Yuanliang cautiously approached the edge of the cliff, looked down, and stepped back a few steps in fear of falling.

After taking a few steps back, he looked at the burnt brown marks on the ground and the smell of kerosene filling his nose, and said in panic: "Someone...someone fell down, what...what should I do?"

"What should we do? The fog is so thick now. He's on fire and fell off a cliff. He's probably dead. Should we risk other people's lives and send people to look for a suspect?"

Hong Mingxu immediately retorted.

Although what I said was not very humane, it was the truth.

"This..." Luo Zhifeng looked at Lin Lezhi with a worried look on his face. He thought for a moment and said, "From the current point of view, we can only wait for the fog to dissipate before looking for Brother Guan."

No one present had any objection to Luo Zhifeng's words.

When most people had left, Luo Zhifeng stepped forward, patted Lin Lezhi on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Brother Jiang, the terrain here is dangerous. Let's go back to the earth temple first and wait for the fog to dissipate. Maybe Brother Guan will be lucky and will not..."

"You take everyone back, I'll stay and wait for the fog to clear."

Lin Lezhi interrupted, his tone lacking any emotion but revealing determination.

"Brother Jiang..."

Luo Zhifeng wanted to persuade him again, but Xiao Yihuo at the side said, "Just let him stay here."

Luo Zhifeng didn't know what to say anymore. After looking at Lin Lezhi again, he took a deep breath, nodded helplessly, and turned to leave.

Liu Yunheben also wanted to go forward and say a few words of comfort, but as soon as he took a step, Qingchuan shook his head at Liu Yunhe.

Yes.

Liu Yunhe paused and did not move forward.

Although Lin Lezhi said that he had little experience in the world, he could still feel the feeling of losing someone important.

he knows.

Lin Lezhi must be feeling very uncomfortable at this moment.

After everyone around him had left, Lin Lezhi stood at the edge of the cliff and stayed there for a long time.

His eyes were fixed on the thick fog, as if he wanted to penetrate it and see Guan Ziheng's figure, or hear the sound of Guan Ziheng chatting with him.

but……

responded to his.

There was only silent silence, not even the wind.

Lin Lezhi thought that he would cry when everyone left.

Can……

But there was nothing in his eyes, not even the slightest bit of moisture.

Then.

An idea popped into my mind.

Guan Ziheng is to him.

Who is it?

Or……

Who is he looking at through Guan Ziheng?

The answer to this question.

Lin Lezhi couldn't figure it out. His chest felt stuffy and every breath seemed to be stirring in his chest, causing waves of tearing pain in his heart.

"How does it feel to get something back after losing it? Are you happy?"

Lin Lezhi asked as if he was talking to himself, but the moment he asked, he denied it and said, "I shouldn't be happy."

As expected, there was no response.

Slow down.

Lin Lezhi turned around and looked at Xiao Yihuo who was standing beside him, and forced a smile and said, "The one who should make you happy should be the person named Ayi, not me."

Lin Lezhi knew from just now that Xiao Yihuo had not left.

But Xiao Yihuo didn't say anything, so he pretended to be alone.

But he...

I really want to find the answer.

Hearing this, Xiao Yihuo's brows slightly knitted, with worry hidden in his brows, and a little surprise and a hint of displeasure, he said in a deep voice: "What nonsense are you talking about."

"Nonsense?" Lin Lezhi responded with a joking smile, and with a pain in his heart, he said, "You stayed here because of him, right?"

Lin Lezhi wanted to say it in a relaxed tone, and he tried hard to do so, but his face showed a helpless expression.

Lin Lezhi knew it from the surprised and shocked look on Xiao Yihuo's face when he looked at him.

now.

How ugly my face looks.

"you…"

The expression on Lin Lezhi's face was seen clearly by Xiao Yihuo.

The surroundings were filled with thick fog, which seemed to cover everything, but it could not cover the confusion and sadness in Lin Lezhi's eyes.

He stood there, as if blending into the thick fog.

The fog was light, but I couldn't see clearly.

Looking at Lin Lezhi’s sad eyes.

For a moment, Xiao Yihuo didn't know what to say.

but……

In Lin Lezhi's view, Xiao Yihuo's silence was a form of tacit consent.

Lin Lezhi smiled faintly.

It seems like it should be so.

Lin Lezhi withdrew his gaze and returned his eyes to the mist.

He murmured, "Xiao Xu, you know what? Ever since I woke up from the river, everything here seems like a dream to me. I can't tell reality from reality, and I can't see myself clearly."

"I thought God had given me a chance to live again, but... it seems that is not the case. After living again, I was still... still wrong..."

wrong.

He was wrong.

If he...

Don't be so self-righteous as to take Guan Ziheng away, and don't keep Guan Ziheng by your side for your own selfish reasons.

Just let him stay there.

Then he could always be that leisurely, elegant scholar.

Then...

will not die.

Why……

Dead person.

Not myself.
