Summary: The male protagonist is always wrong

"Your Excellency the Lord is joking." Yin Li sneered and put down the teacup in his hand. The porcelain bottom of the teacup made a crisp sound when it hit the table.

The tea leaves in the cup, the porcelain tea set, the purple clay teapot on the table, the Persian carpet on the floor, the oil paints hanging on the wall... all came from the lord's mansion.

He took a deep breath, stood up, and slowly walked to the window with his back to Kiryuu. He really didn't want to see Kiryuu again.

"I don't understand. What do you want to do?"

The territory is prosperous and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

He has gained the glory of the past, and even his past ideals have been realized in a sense.

Yin Li really didn't understand why he was pestering her?

He turned his head to look at the vampire with red eyes, "Did I seduce you? Have I ever said anything nice to you?"

The sun gradually sets, and the setting sun shines through the window lattice onto the boy's white hair.

Kiryuu Kiryu stepped forward, held his hand, and hugged him from behind. Feeling the boy's momentary resistance and shivering, Kiryuu Kiryu ignored his resistance and held him tighter. With the warm body in his arms, his soul let out a sigh of satisfaction.

Shu Kiryu leaned down and sniffed the fragrance on the boy's neck. The flowing blood penetrated the blood vessels and emitted a sweet fragrance to him, tempting him to penetrate the skin and pounce on the boy to feast on him.

But he just buried his head in the boy's neck and kissed the smooth skin. Compared to the boy's blood, Kuran Zero longed for his love more.

He suppressed the urge to suck blood in his body, he wanted the boy's whole body and mind.

If the blood is not offered voluntarily by the young man, then the physical satisfaction is meaningless.

Kuran Shu said, "I said, I want you to belong to me, I want you to love me."

To him, every move of Yin Li was tempting him.

Hearing this, Yin Li looked at the overlapping reflections on the window with a cold gaze, "You want me to love you? Don't you think it's ridiculous? When did you ever truly give me your heart? You are full of calculations, and you still want me to treat you sincerely?"

Hearing Yin Li's cruel words, Zero Kuran felt sad, and even his heart felt heavy.

He was indeed full of calculations. He was calculating Yin Li's heart, and at the same time he also lost his own heart.

He had plotted against Yin Li, using a trick to keep him bound to his territory. But he never regretted it, believing his current situation was what he deserved. Even if he couldn't touch her, he would rather have Yin Li by his side than be worlds apart.

Just looking at him is enough to make Zero Kiryu feel satisfied.

Kuran Shu let him go, took a half step back, and said earnestly and sincerely, "Every word I say comes from the heart, and my promise is always valid."

Yin Li still didn't look back at him. He remembered every word of Kuran Shu in his heart.

He once said, "If you refuse my visit and expel me from the church, I will not have any complaints."

Silence spread in the air, the setting sun cast mottled shadows in the house, and the garden looked delicate and lovely under the sunset, but Zero Kiryu had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery. He was just anxiously waiting for the ultimatum.

Yin Li said, "Please don't come to the church again."

The expected answer made Zero Kiryu's heart sink to the bottom. His face turned pale and his fingers tightened weakly as if he was grabbing something, but in the end he obediently accepted the verdict.

"Okay, I won't come to church anymore."

After saying that, he picked up his coat and left the room. As the door closed, only the sound of Yin Li's breathing remained in the room.

Yin Li sat back on the sofa weakly.

His heart was not that cold and hard, and he didn't want to torture Zero Kiryu.

During these days of getting along, he truly connected with Zero Kiryu, and he also knew that Zero Kiryu felt the same way.

That's why he is in pain. He will definitely go back. A thousand years have passed between them.

After enjoying a moment of pleasure, is Zero Kiryu left alone to face the torture and suffering of the years?

Yin Li couldn't do such a thing, so he never considered giving love to Kuran Shu.

Everything can be transcended except time.

Chapter 204 Jiulanshu 22

On the second day, the weather suddenly changed. The bright sunshine yesterday was blocked by thick clouds. The entire sky was pressed down by the clouds, making people feel depressed.

Before the early morning service, there was a rapid knock on the church door.

Hearing the rapid knock on the door, Yin Li's heart tightened involuntarily, and he quickly stepped forward to open the door.

"Father! Something terrible has happened! Please go to the city and take a look!"

Yin Li calmed down and said soothingly, "Don't worry, tell me slowly, what happened?"

The woman answered breathlessly, "Something's happened in the city...in the city! Many people have suddenly fallen ill. You should go and take a look!"

Yin Li didn't ask any more questions and immediately rushed to the town with her.

On the way, bean-sized raindrops suddenly fell. The rainstorm came unexpectedly. The air was humid and stuffy, and the stench of vomit and the smell of earth hit our noses.

When they arrived at the town, the scene before them was horrifying: sick people were everywhere, and cries and screams could be heard everywhere.

Yin Li braved the heavy rain to find the doctor who was busy at work. He asked anxiously, "What is going on?"

The doctor's face was exhausted, his voice hoarse. "Father, you are finally here. Three days ago, a patient came to see me. Initially, he had a fever, but the symptoms persisted, accompanied by abdominal pain, vomiting, and cramps. Now more and more people are experiencing the same symptoms... I'm afraid this is a plague!"

Yin Li looked around at the patients and their families scattered around. He realized that he alone could not control the situation.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, blocking out the cries from all around.

He raised his voice and shouted, "Go and fetch the Lord!"

"No need, I'm here." Jiulan Shu's voice came from the rain. He rushed to the scene in the heavy rain. Before he even had time to ask about the situation, he walked towards Yin Li with a clear goal, "What should I do?"

Yin Li quickly instructed the doctor beside him: "Gather all the people who know medicine, the more the better."

The doctor nodded and immediately turned and left.

Yin Li then said to Jiulan Shu, "Lord, please arrange for someone to guard the entrance to the territory. No one is allowed to enter or leave during these days. These patients and their families must be isolated. Please provide me with linen, the more the better. Also, please arrange for someone to burn pine resin along the street."

He did not explain the purpose of his actions, and Zero Kiryu did not ask any further questions. He gave orders to the servants and asked them to act separately.

Yin Li looked at the panicked crowd in the rain, while Jiulan Shu directed the personnel to evacuate unrelated people and vacate the houses in the town for patients and their families to take shelter from the rain.

The crowds were rushing back and forth, and the noise was endless.

Looking at Jiulan Shu arranging everything in an orderly manner, Yin Li sighed, "Lord, you must be prepared. This is a long-term battle."

"Father, you are the one who should be prepared. Your role in this plague is far more important than mine." Zero Kiryu brushed his wet hair back.

The two men looked at each other and understood each other tacitly that this was a war without victory.

Yin Li walked into the house, carefully checked the patient's condition, and asked the patient's family for details.

There are a total of 7 patients. The mild cases only have a fever in the head, while the severe cases have begun vomiting and diarrhea.

It was different from any plague Yin Li was familiar with. Yin Li could use magic to alleviate their symptoms, but he could not eradicate the virus, which meant he needed to find an antidote.

However, it is not an exaggeration to say that the worrying medical technology of this era is the darkest moment in the history of human medicine.

There is no amoxicillin, meropenem, or oseltamivir here...

This means he has to use traditional Chinese medicine, but this is not China, a country with vast land and abundant resources. Can he find herbal medicine?

Gaia (the consciousness of the planet) has filled his head with knowledge, but is there nothing that can be used?

Yin Li paced the house anxiously, thinking about a solution in his mind.

The patient's family members grabbed him and asked anxiously, "Father, can he be saved? He is the only labor force in our family. He cannot die."

Is there still hope for him? Yin Li couldn't guarantee this, so he could only say, "I'll try my best."

Just like what a doctor would say to the family of a terminally ill patient, the only assurance Yin Li could give was this - he would try his best, but he could not guarantee the results.

At this time, Zero Kiryu, who had settled everything, walked in. He could almost see the priest's anxiety at a glance.

"Please rest assured, we will not give up on anyone." He spoke to comfort the patient's family, then pulled Yin Li out of the house.

The rain outside the house flowed over the eaves and splashed onto Zero Kuran's shoulders, but he had no time to care about it at the moment.

The anxiety surrounding the boy was almost solidifying into a physical form.

"Look at me, Yin Li." Jiulan Shu placed his hand on the boy's shoulder, his tone calm and steady, "They are my people. Even if something happens, I will bear all the responsibility."

Yin Li raised his head. His lips were pale and bloodless. "Do you think I'm afraid of taking responsibility?"

"No, I know you just want to do better, but you have to be prepared. We may not be able to save everyone..."

"I don't need your guidance yet."

Yin Li interrupted him, anxiety flooding his heart. He knew he couldn't save everyone, but the responsibility of carrying other people's lives made him almost breathless.

In contrast, Jiulan Shu remained calm. He looked at Yin Li with certainty, "You have a solution, right?"

The peace and composure in his eyes infected Yin Li. Yin Li took a deep breath and nodded. "I have a way, but it will take time."

Kuran Shu said without hesitation, "I'll buy you some time."

"Okay." Yin Li said, "I need a laboratory."

"There's a laboratory in the lord's mansion. It was once used for blood experiments. You can use it."

The rain wetted Kaname Kuran's hair, and the water droplets rolled down his sharp jaw to the groove of his collarbone. The rain was pouring and the plague was raging, but Kaname Kuran remained calm.

"I understand." Yin Li's mind gradually calmed down. "Move the patients and their families to the church, send them supplies regularly, and don't let them come into contact with too many people."

Jiulan Shu nodded, "I will take you to the lord's mansion first, and then arrange for quarantine."

"Excuse me, Lord."

Yin Li looked up at Jiulan Shu.

The rain wet the young priest's white hair, and his black monastic robe stuck sticky to his body.

The noble lord opposite was equally miserable, with wet hair sticking to his neck and mud spots clearly visible on his trouser legs.

They were both equally destitute, a rare sight.

They looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

Laughter echoed in the wet rain, and the air became joyful.

Yin Li put away her smile and recalled every move of Kiryuu Kaku when dealing with the plague. It was a textbook example, so orderly and so calm.

"My Lord, why are you so calm? Don't you care about your people? Or have you ever been in such a situation before?"

Zero Kuran laughed dumbly, "Neither. Father, I just believe that you can solve this plague. All my confidence comes from you."
