The moon is as cool as water

Yue Liang sometimes feels that Jiang Qi is like that slippery loach, if you squeeze him tighter, you can crush him to death, but if you squeeze him looser, he will always find a chance to slip away from your hands.But Yue Liang didn't want him to die, nor did he want to let him go, so he could only wrap him around carefully, and let him stay in his airtight encirclement.

When Yue Liang arrived at Shuiyun Xiaozhu, it was not time for dinner, and when he heard that Jiang Qi had gone to Qingfengjian again, he came directly from the front hall.

Qing Ye and Lai Yu had nothing to do all afternoon, they were laughing and sitting on a rock by the cliff to play.Seeing Yue Liang approaching, the two of them hurriedly got up and ran forward, stood upright and saluted: "Master!"

Yue Liang looked at the closed door of the hut. Jiang Qi didn't like to treat Qingfeng Courtyard recently, but he seemed to have a special liking for it: "Is he still inside?"

Lai Yu nodded and replied: "The master said he was tired and wanted to rest, and he said he would call him when the master came."

Qing Ye was about to knock on the door, but Yue Liang stopped him with a wave of his hand: "You guys should stay outside the door and I'll go in and call him."

After finishing speaking, Yue Liang stretched out his hand to push the door, but his subordinates stopped unexpectedly, the wooden door did not move at all, it was actually locked from the inside.

Yue Liang's complexion changed, and he became suspicious. When he agreed to Jiang Qi staying indoors alone, he also made a rule at the same time - the door cannot be locked.Regarding this point, although Jiang Qi was reluctant, he never violated it.

After all, Yue Liang didn't trust Jiang Qi very much. Jiang Shan's nature is hard to change. He knew many years ago that Jiang Qi was definitely not as obedient as he seemed.Even if it was something that Yue Mingxi forbade Jiang Qi to do, as long as Jiang Qi was interested, he would have to try it secretly behind his back to be comfortable.

Yue Liang immediately exerted internal force on his hand, and the wooden door broke away from the door frame with a "boom" under the heavy blow, and flew out.

Qing Ye and Lai Yu didn't understand what happened to make Yue Liang angry, they were startled by the wooden door that fell to the ground, they looked at each other in panic, they both knelt down and said: "Sect Master, calm down!"

Standing at the door, Yue Liang had already looked around the small room. Except for a few pieces of furniture, there was no sign of Jiang Qi in the room.

"Where are people?" Yue Liang asked.

Seeing this scene, Qing Ye and Lai Yu were both shocked, Qing Ye stammered: "Sect Master calm down! He, he, really never left the house!"

Yue Liang walked to the window and sneered: "I haven't gone out, why is there no one in that room? Could it be that he, a cripple without martial arts, can fly out from here?"

Lai Yu hurriedly explained: "We have been guarding outside the door and never left. Uncle Master has indeed never come out. These days, Uncle Master will stay alone for a long time after he enters the house, and he never allows us to go in."

Yue Liang expected that the two of them would not dare to tell lies, and besides, although these two disciples were still young, they were considered stable and capable among all the disciples.Since the person has never been out, how could he disappear for no reason?

The window was locked from the inside, even if Jiang Qi went out through the window while the two disciples were not paying attention, it would be impossible to restore the window outside, the problem could only be inside.

Yue Liang walked to the Bogu shelf and took down the objects placed on the shelf. The vases and ornaments were all Yue Liang had seen before, and there was nothing unusual about them.Both Qing Ye and Lai Yu belonged to elves, and when they realized what he was going to do, they immediately got up and moved the bogu stand away from the wall.

Yue Liang tapped the wall carefully, the echo was thick and dull, there was absolutely no hollow space.He thought, is it possible that Jiang Qi can still come out through the wall?No, absolutely impossible, there must be a problem elsewhere.

Yue Liang took a step back and leaned against the chair. Shuiyun Xiaozhu's tables and chairs were surprisingly large.A thought flashed through his mind, he pulled the chair away and ordered: "You guys move this table away!"

"Yes!" Qing Ye and Lai Yu immediately went to move the table.

The table case is made of high-quality huanghuali wood, thick and heavy, even Qingye and the two are full of internal strength, and they are also sweating profusely.They are now wearing the guilt, and they don't care to wipe off their sweat. They only spend all their energy on dealing with the table case, hoping to find some clues and reduce their punishment in the future.

Yue Liang had sharp eyes and ears, and when the table moved a few inches away, he discovered the problem.The floor under the table case was actually separated from the floor of other parts of the ground, and the edge of the separation was just flush with the table legs, so no one had noticed it for so long.

Yue Liang squatted down and found a circular mark on the right side of the floor, which seemed to be worn away by something all the year round.He put a finger on the worn part and pressed it hard, and there was a clear sound, and the board tilted up obliquely.

Qing Ye covered her mouth and exclaimed: "There is actually a mechanism here!"

Yue Liang sneered, he really thought Jiang Qi was being honest, so he was waiting for him here!

Qin Er, who lives in Sihe Village, took advantage of the good weather and went up the mountain with a machete, bow and arrow.He is a well-known hunter in the village, and he often brings the prey he hunts to the neighboring towns for sale.

There are no large animals in Qingyi Mountain, but there are quite a lot of small wild animals such as rabbits, foxes and pheasants.There are Tsingyi factions and small towns in Tsingyi Shandong. There are so many people and lively, wild animals dare not run there. Most of the activities are in the west of the mountain, which supports Qin Er's family.

When Qin Er saw the hut on the mountain from a distance, he thought in his heart whether to repair the hut a little bit.The hut abandoned by the villagers in the early years has not been occupied for a long time, and it is already dilapidated just by looking at the sparse thatch on the roof.

When he got closer, he saw clearly the hole in the yellow mud wall and the wooden door that was big enough for a child to come in and out at will, and he thought again, otherwise, he should not give up at all. Anyway, no one will come on the mountain except himself, and he is just a child. Put some sundries here, why spend so much effort.

Qin Er carefully opened the dilapidated wooden door, but when he was about to go in, he realized something was wrong. He reacted quickly, holding the machete tightly in his hand, and shouted: "Who!".

A dusty figure moved around the corner, seemingly also frightened.

Qin Er asked aloud just now, but it was just a subconscious reaction. He didn't expect that there were actually people in the house, not wild animals.The man was curled up in the corner, his clothes were torn, covered with dust and mud, his hands and face were scratched with countless small wounds, as if he had fallen from a cliff.

After Qin Er realized it, he hurried forward to check: "Hello! Are you okay? Hello!"

The man opened his eyes and looked at Qin Er carefully, then he seemed relieved: "You are?"

Qin Erdao: "I am a hunter at the foot of the mountain. Where did you come from? No one lives on this mountain. How did you make it like this?"

The man supported the wall and wanted to stand up, Qin Er immediately reached out to help him, but saw that his body trembled the moment he got up, and blurted out a cry of pain.Only then did Qin Er realize that one of his feet seemed to be injured, twisting in a strange posture.

The man picked up a branch on the side as a crutch for support, and then explained to Qin Er: "I... lost my way, fell down from the mountain, and probably broke my ankle, so..."

Lost from the bottom of the mountain to this deserted mountain?Qin Er thinks that this person either has a brain problem or has an ulterior secret.Looking at the man carefully, he found that although he looked extremely embarrassed, his face was clean, and he didn't look like a bad guy.

Qin Er is a kind person, he thought that no matter what, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, even if it is a bad person, let's wait until later, so he said immediately: "Is your foot seriously injured, can you still walk?"

The man tapped the ground with the branch in his hand, and said: "With this branch supporting it, it's barely okay."

Qin Er said: "That's good, my house is at the foot of the mountain, how about I take you down first. By the way, my name is Qin Er, what's your name?"

The man replied: "Jiang Qi."
