Chapter 59 - 56. Selection
On a rainy night, Chen Ji tore off the heavy raincoat he was wearing and ran wildly with just a conical hat on his head.
He bent over to check and saw a wound about half the depth of a little fingernail, stretching from his collarbone to his chest.
The wound was still bleeding, the blood mixing with the rain soaking his clothes.
Chen Ji could even feel as though, with the blood flowing out, his life was also ebbing away bit by bit.
"Really unlucky."
His original plan was just to suffer a superficial wound, using it as a ploy to make his escape.
However, he was not someone who practiced physical disciplines regularly and lacked control over his body, which resulted in the wound being a bit too deep.
At this moment, the pain from the wound was excruciating, and even the cold rain could not alleviate the fiery sensation.
But now was not the time to think about the wound, Chen Ji, while tearing off a piece of his hem for a makeshift bandage, turned back and said, "Hurry up and follow, if we can’t catch the deserter spy, Lord Si Cao will blame us both, and neither of us can bear it!"
Jing Dynasty spy: "..."
The two of them, one behind the other, broke through the layers of rain, getting further and further from Hongyi Lane.
