Chapter 181 The Fiance and the Fake Shadowman

"Liu Xing, I can really walk!"

Wearing a pair of women's slippers, Zhang Yaxin walked back and forth in the room cautiously, with an unconcealable excitement on her pretty face.

For the past half month, Zhang Yaxin was weak in the whole body due to poisoning, and she was lying on the bed all the time.

It wasn't until noon today, after she took the decoction made by the purple crowned green snake, that the poison on her body was gradually dispelled, and her limbs began to regain strength.

After walking in the room for more than ten minutes, Zhang Yaxin finally stopped, sat down at the table, and said gratefully: "Liu Xing, it's been so hard for you for the past half month. You have been taking care of me like this."

Liu Xing waved his hand: "You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank me, thank your fiancé. He risked his life to go to Lingsnake Mountain to catch the purple crowned green snake. According to the regulations of the marriage notice, this snake catcher will become your fiancé."

Hearing this, Zhang Yaxin frowned slightly. She was also very grateful to the snake catcher, but until now, the snake catcher had never shown up, and she didn't even know who the other party was.

"Liu Xing, who do you think is this snake catcher? Why hasn't he appeared yet?" Zhang Yaxin asked strangely.

"Why, can't wait to see your fiancé?"

"..." Zhang Yaxin explained, "I just want to thank him in person. He went to Lingsnake Mountain to catch snakes. I don't know if he was injured?"

"Since the snake catcher can send the purple crowned green snake here, I believe he will be safe and sound."

Zhang Yaxin was puzzled: "If he is fine, why didn't he come to see me?"

"There are two possibilities." Liu Xing analyzed, "The first one is that he thinks you are too noble and he is not worthy of you, so he dare not meet with you; the second one is that he thinks he is too good. I don't deserve him, so I don't think it's necessary to see you."

Zhang Yaxin was startled and fell silent.

After a while, she turned on her laptop, clicked on the web page of the previous marriage announcement, and finally entered a paragraph:
"Hello everyone, I am Zhang Yaxin. Thanks to the help of a kind person, the poison on my body has been cured. But until now, I still don't know who this kind person who caught the snake is. If this kind person can If you read this text, I hope to meet you. In any case, thank you for everything you have done. I will wait for you in the old house of Zeng’s family in Xifeng Village, Romance District, Story City, and look forward to your appearance. —— Zhang Yaxin stays.”
After typing this text, Zhang Yaxin hit the send button and uploaded it to the Internet.

As soon as she finished posting, some netizens responded immediately.

Floor 1: "Wow, sister Yaxin has recovered, congratulations, hehe O(∩_∩)O~"

Floor 2: "Kneel down!!! Someone really dares to go up to Spirit Snake Mountain?"

3rd floor: "Sure enough, the master is among the people! Who is so fierce that he really caught the purple crown and green snake?"

Floor 4: "I'm starting to believe in love again!"

……

One message after another appeared quickly, and Zhang Yaxin sat in front of the computer and kept swiping the screen.

It's a pity that after browsing for more than four hours, I still haven't seen the message she was expecting.

Before I knew it, night fell.

It rained a lot today, and the air was unusually fresh tonight.

After dinner, Liu Xing and Zhang Yaxin went out together, ready to take a walk near Xifeng Village.

West Wind Village is located at the foot of the mountain. To the east of the village is a grove of trees. The two walked together, shoulder to shoulder in the forest.

"Liu Xing, do you think that snake catcher will come to see me?"

"Do you want him to come?"

"Of course I do." Zhang Yaxin confessed, "I want to know why he is willing to take the risk of catching a snake to save me?"

After a pause, she continued: "I have always felt that most of the stories in romance novels are deceitful. The plots of those novels that are willing to sacrifice their lives for love do not exist in real life. If there is really a man I am willing to risk my life to go up the mountain to catch snakes, I don't know if I will really marry him."

Liu Xing didn't say anything.

The two continued to walk deeper into the woods.

The night was getting darker and darker, and the surroundings became more and more quiet.

Whoosh!
Suddenly, above a big tree in front, a black figure flew out, fell more than ten meters, and landed firmly on the ground in front of him.

"Shadow man?"

Zhang Yaxin's eyes lit up slightly, and the black figure standing under the tree was wrapped in black cloth, and was dressed exactly like the legendary shadow figure.

Liu Xing couldn't help looking at the man in black in front of him a few more times, and sighed inwardly: This dress is quite similar.

"Are you the shadow man?" Zhang Yaxin asked cautiously.

The man in black nodded and asked, "The poison on your body has been cured?"

Zhang Yaxin raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked tentatively, "You caught the purple crown and green snake?"

The man in black nodded.

Zhang Yaxin's heart skipped a beat, and she asked strangely, "Why did you save me?"

The man in black said: "Protecting the goddess in my heart has always been my biggest dream."

Zhang Yaxin asked softly, "What do you mean?"

The man in black said: "Since the first time I saw you at Yufeng Fiction Academy, you have already stolen my heart. I have always wanted to confess my love to you, but I was afraid of scaring you. Therefore, I can only turn into The Night Ranger is secretly protecting you."

Zhang Yaxin's cheeks were slightly hot, and her thin lips were pursed lightly. Thinking of something, she turned around and asked, "Heiyingman, did you get hurt when you went to Lingsnake Mountain to catch the purple-crowned green snake?"

The man in black said calmly: "A little injury is nothing, it's nothing serious. I saw your message on the Internet, and I was worried about your waiting, so I came here to tell you."

Zhang Yaxin said seriously: "Shadowman, thank you for everything you have done for me, may I know your real identity?"

The man in black waved his hand: "No, these things I do are voluntary, and I don't ask for anything. I have other things to do, and there will be a period later."

After finishing speaking, he waved his right hand, and with a bang, the man in black rose into the air, jumped up quickly, and flew towards the top of the big tree.

At this time, with a thought, Liu Xing flicked the middle finger of his right hand, and a stream of Nine Yang True Qi shot out towards the man in black.

"Supernatural Ability"!
boom! !

Accompanied by a metallic crisp sound, it seemed that some metal broke. Immediately afterwards, the man in black fell directly from midair.

"what!!"

In the process of falling, the man in black suddenly screamed and panicked.

Bang!
In a blink of an eye, the man in black fell heavily on the ground. When he landed, he screamed in pain, as if he fell hard.

"Li Zhigang, are you okay?"

At this time, seven or eight people suddenly rushed from behind the big tree, and surrounded the man in black in panic, checking his body for injuries.

"Fortunately nothing serious, just a little broken leg."

"What's going on, why did Li Zhigang suddenly fall down?"

"Looks like the wire broke."

"For no reason, how did the wire break?
……

While talking, several people helped the man in black up.

Only then did Zhang Yaxin see clearly the appearance of the man in black. It turned out that the man in black was pretended by Li Zhigang.

"Senior Li, why is it you?" Zhang Yaxin wondered, "Why are you pretending to be a shadow man?"

Li Zhigang showed embarrassment on his face. He originally wanted to use the shadow man to deceive Zhang Yaxin's heart, so he specially paid for the staff of Story City to help.Unexpectedly, the steel wire used for flying broke suddenly, and Li Zhigang fell directly from mid-air, revealing himself on the spot.

"Yaxin, I..." Li Zhigang settled down, the matter has come to an end, he doesn't want to hide it anymore, "Although I am not a shadow man, I am willing to guard you all my life like a shadow man. I just want you to understand what I mean..."

Zhang Yaxin interrupted: "Are you the one who caught the purple crown and green snake?"

Li Zhigang hesitated for a while, then shook his head with difficulty and said, "No...not."

Zhang Yaxin asked back: "Why did you lie just now?"

"I..." Li Zhigang explained, "I just want to use this special way to say something to you, Yaxin, it's been four years, don't you understand my heart..."

"Senior Li, you were injured just now, go back to recuperate first. I still have something to do, bye." After speaking, Zhang Yaxin turned her head, "Liu Xing, we should go back."

"Oh."

The two left in a hurry.
……

Zeng's old house, in the yard.

"It's really unlucky for Li Zhigang, the steel wire broke." Liu Xing said, "The shadowy people you met in Story City before were all pretended by Li Zhigang, right?"

Zhang Yaxin curled her lips and said, "Fortunately, the steel wire was broken, otherwise I might have been deceived by him. I almost believed his words just now."

Liu Xingdao: "It's not easy for Li Zhigang. He specially spent money to pretend to be a shadow man. Hanging the steel wire is a very hard work. Even if there is no credit, there is hard work."

"It's all a trick to deceive people, no matter how you say it, it's useless. However, he reminded me of one thing." Zhang Yamei's eyes flashed, and she said again, "Liu Xing, do you think the Purple Crowned Green Snake will Will it be captured by the real shadow man?"

Liu Xing frowned: "Improbable, right? Are there shadow people in Story City?"

Zhang Yaxin analyzed: "But, besides the shadow man, who else would dare to go to the Spirit Snake Mountain? Who else would be so enthusiastic to save me? I always think that the shadow man may be in Story City, or even in Xifeng Village Nearby, it's just that he doesn't want to show up."

Liu Xing reminded: "If the purple-crowned and green snake was really caught by the black shadow man, things will be troublesome. I heard that the black shadow man is a middle-aged uncle, about 40 years old. You are only 22 years old this year. If you marry For people in shadows, old couples and young wives, can this couple live in harmony?"

"..." Zhang Yaxin glared at him, and said, "The Sombra is not as nasty as you! The Sombra saves people out of a chivalrous heart and never asks for anything in return."

Liu Xing said: "That's right, the black shadow man is so old, he should already have a wife, he may not save you for the purpose of marrying you, unless he wants to take care of a little-three..."

"I'm too lazy to talk to you." Zhang Yaxin said again, "Liu Xing, go back to sleep by yourself first, I will stay in the yard tonight, maybe the shadow man will appear."
