Chapter 443 Pond
Chapter 443 Pond
Deep in the bamboo forest of Bailu Academy, there is a square pond, which is neither big nor small.
Students from the academy like to gather here in their spare time to enjoy the lotus in summer and go fishing in winter.
But ever since a poor girl drowned here, this pond became an "unlucky" place and no students came here anymore.
The pond became a forbidden area, without people gathering, and unexpectedly became an ideal place for some people to commit evil deeds.
……
Hot tea and snacks are prepared in the Bamboo Viewing Pavilion. The seats are covered with cushions and there are fire pots around, which makes it very warm and comfortable.
Although Chen Ji finally followed Sun Qingyuan here, he didn't say a word on the way, didn't drink tea in the pavilion, and always had a gloomy face.
Du Kongqing and Sun Qingyuan beside them were as quiet as chickens, fearing that they would make some noise and then attract Chen Ji's death gaze.
Woohoo~~ His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan has such a terrifying aura without Xiaoran/Luo Xiaoran by his side.
"Sun Qingyuan, I brought incense, candles and paper money. Please take me to the pond to worship Xiaolian!" Du Kongqing whispered.
Before coming to Bailu Academy, Xiaoran told her that Sun Qingyuan's heart knot was in the academy. Since he had the chance to return to his hometown, why not find a way to untie the knot?
"Only by letting Sun Qingyuan face up to Xiaolian's death and let him speak out his true feelings can he stop being stuck in the past."
Xiao Ran was right. The wound had rotten flesh and it could only heal if it was cut out. Otherwise, it would fester day by day and could easily take the host's life.
Without waiting for Sun Qingyuan to respond, Chen Ji said calmly, "Go!"
When Luo Xiaoran and Du Kongqing were discussing this matter, Chen Ji was also there. Since Luo Xiaoran wanted to help Sun Qingyuan, he had no choice but to support her.
Sun Qingyuan was pulled out of the Bamboo Viewing Pavilion by Du Kongqing. Although he felt that this moment came so suddenly and urgently, his feet subconsciously moved towards the direction of the pond.
As they got closer to the pond, several sounds came into the ears of Sun Qingyuan and Du Kongqing more and more clearly. The two could not help but look at each other, feeling a little confused.
It was almost time for class, so why was there still someone in the pond deep in the bamboo forest? Could someone have fallen into the water?
Thinking of this, Sun Qingyuan immediately quickened his pace. Du Kongqing also thought of this possibility and hurriedly chased after him.
"Aren't you aloof and aloof? Then chill out in the water!"
"Hahaha! Look at him like a drowned rat! What bad luck!"
"Haha, it should be a drowning dog!"
"If you dare report this to the academy, I will take care of the lives of your entire family!"
"Since you dare to come back, then you can be his punching bag!"
When Du Kongqing and Sun Qingyuan arrived at the pond, they saw three or five people standing on the shore and one person in the water.
There was a man on the shore, with a thin back and a thick bamboo pole in his hand, who kept hitting the man in the water.
The man who fell into the water struggled desperately in the water, flapping his hands around, trying to grab anything that could save his life.
However, as soon as his head emerged from the water, the bamboo pole would fall down on his head, forcing him to be submerged again.
His face turned pale as paper due to fear and lack of oxygen, his lips turned purple, and his eyes were filled with despair and helplessness.
His clothes were soaked and stuck to his body, making his movements heavier and slower. Every time he struggled to surface it was like a desperate fight with death, but the ruthless bamboo pole refused to stop.
"Wang Changbo!"
Seeing this scene, Sun Qingyuan couldn't help but scream and rushed towards the pond with bloodshot eyes.
He first snatched the bamboo pole away, and when he saw the other person's appearance clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.
With red eyes, Sun Qingyuan threw away the bamboo pole, jumped into the pond without hesitation, and swam hard towards Wang Changbo.
"Sun Qingyuan? Why is he back?"
Li Linzhong, who was surrounded in the middle, showed a surprised expression on his face when he saw this, and then kicked the man who had just held the bamboo pole hard.
"Xie An, when you see an old friend, have you forgotten what you should do?"
Xie An was kicked to the ground, but he seemed to feel no pain. He rolled and crawled to his feet, reached out to grab the bamboo pole, and continued to prevent the people in the water from coming ashore.
"stop!"
Du Kongqing took the bamboo pole first and trembled all over. It was unclear whether he was angry, afraid, or both.
"You are taking human life lightly, and you are violating the laws of Daliang!"
Li Linzhong's eyes lit up, and he looked over Du Kongqing without any concealment, then kicked Xie An again.
"Sun Qingyuan's luck with women is really good. Having a sister like you is not enough, and now there is such a beautiful little sister next to him!"
"Disgusting!" Du Kongqing spat, feeling extremely ashamed and angry. In a rage, he smashed Li Linzhong hard with the bamboo pole in his hand!
But the strength between men and women is very different.
Li Linzhong caught the bamboo pole easily, and pulled Du Kongqing from the other side over, holding her tightly in his arms, and touching her face with a wicked smile.
"She's still got a bit of a hot temper, I like that!"
"let me go!"
Du Kongqing shouted angrily and tried to break free, but failed.
"Mr. Li, it's almost time for class. Don't delay any longer." Xie An reminded carefully.
"What are you afraid of?" Li Linzhong glared at him.
"The first class is Master Ouyang's. He likes Sun Qingyuan the most and is also very caring towards Wang Changbo."
"Since Wang Changbo was also late, Master Ouyang will not be angry. After all, the law does not punish everyone!"
What a good plan! Du Kongqing sneered. Facing such a despicable and treacherous person, she didn't need to show mercy.
She took out a silver needle from the acupuncture bag and stabbed it hard into Li Linzhong's painful point.
"what!!!"
Li Linzhong suddenly felt a sharp pain somewhere in his thigh. He loosened his hand holding Du Kongqing and fell to the ground, covering the painful spot.
Du Kongqing, who had escaped, saw that Sun Qingyuan had already swam to the shore with Wang Changbo, so he quickly picked up the bamboo pole and stuck it into the water, letting Sun Qingyuan pull on it for leverage.
It's also ironic that some people use a bamboo pole to harm others, but it can obviously save people.
Finally, both people in the water came ashore, their faces were pale and their lips were purple.
"Quick! Let's go to the bamboo pavilion first. There is a brazier there."
Before Sun Qingyuan went into the water, Wang Changbo had no idea how long he had been in the water. At this moment, he was curled up on the ground, trembling all over, unconscious.
If he had not learned how to swim after falling into the water and nearly drowning, he would probably have passed away by now.
Du Kongqing wanted to go forward to help Sun Qingyuan lift Wang Changbo up, but Sun Qingyuan waved his hand, used all his strength to carry Wang Changbo on his back, and then stared at the five people opposite, remembering them firmly in his mind.
When his gaze fell on himself, Xie An subconsciously shuddered all over. He didn't dare to look at Sun Qingyuan at all and buried his head deeply.
With water droplets hanging on his long eyelashes, Sun Qingyuan roughly wiped the water off his face, dragged Wang Changbo from behind with one hand, took Du Kongqing by the other hand, and walked towards the Bamboo Viewing Pavilion.
"You are all dead! Stop them!"
Li Linzhong, who was lying on the ground, had a face twisted in pain. Seeing this, he yelled and cursed at the other four people.
