Ah Po touched Shen Xiaoru's forehead, it was a little hot, he checked his mouth, nose and eyes carefully, and took his pulse.

He put down Shen Xiaoru's wrist, but did not turn his head: "The antidote."

Qiu Lingfu was delighted: "You agreed?"

"No." Ah Po said, tilting his head slightly, but after taking a look at Qiu Lingfu, he stretched out his hand and pulled Qiu Lingfu behind the curtain.

Qiu Lingfu was like a tense but motionless cat, nervous but not resisting.I don't know if it's out of self-confidence, or knowing that resistance is powerless, so I can only pretend to be cute and wait for the opportunity to escape.

The light behind the curtain was dim, and Qiu Lingfu couldn't see Ah Po's expression clearly. He could only hear him whispering in his ear: "I said, if you poison me, I can take off your clothes and find an antidote."

The closeness of the two, the ambiguous distance and the oppressive atmosphere made Qiu Lingfu recall the consequences of the last failure, and couldn't help but shiver in his heart.

Although her throat was a little tight, her tone was still unrelenting: "You can't find it even if you strip it all."

Speaking of Qiu Lingfu pushing Ah Po away, it didn't take much effort to push Ah Po away this time, but Ah Po just took a step back and still locked Qiu Lingfu in this small space.

Qiu Lingfu patted his sleeves and smoothed out the creases on his body, distracting himself to calm down.

In order to prove himself, he took out three identical vials from his sleeve: "These three have to be mixed according to a certain amount, any more or less will be fatal. Without taking the antidote for a complete cure, just It can be done once a year... Otherwise, I will sleep forever like this."

This was said lightly and without measure.

Ah Po lowered his head to look at him: "This time you are considered to be a monster."

Qiu Lingfu sensitively recalled the humiliation and misery last time, and said viciously: "It's not because of you..."

The words blurted out, and he felt that Ah Po was staring at him closely, making it impossible for him to finish the shameless retort.

"If possible, I would rather take my senior sister to beg Ye Huihe again than to agree to your coercion." Apo said, his voice softened slightly, as if in his mouth: "I Unlike you, who can bear to implicate innocent companions."

When Qiu Lingfu heard it, he thought of Ah Que: "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Qiu Lingfu's reaction made Ah Po feel amused, and he approached him, "Of course I'm mocking you for being cruel, but don't you always regard this as a compliment?"

Unsurprisingly, Qiu Lingfu took a quick breath, but his tone suddenly became haughty: "That's right, I'm really honored to be ridiculed by you."

The words became lighter and weaker, and Ah Po remained motionless as he listened, without any reaction.

"Bring the antidote." Before saying this, Ah Po seemed to sigh quietly in the dark.

Ben was in a hurry to go elsewhere, but because of Qiu Lingfu, Ah Po was delayed in Ziyu for another night.

When Shen Xiaoru woke up the next day, her head was heavy and her whole body was weak.

After listening to those hungry little beggars chirping for a long time, my mind gradually came to my senses.I was a little sleepy after eating last night, so I fell asleep after I couldn't bear it.

Standing up suddenly, remembering that these beggars hadn't been properly arranged before going to bed, he couldn't help patting his head and blaming himself for his carelessness.

I don’t know if these children have been making a fuss all night...

But as soon as he left the house, he was about to go down to see those mischievous little beggars, when he saw a person standing in front of the railing on the second floor.

The tall and familiar figure made her feel at ease suddenly.

"Sixteen said you had to rush to Old Uncle Xu, I thought you were busy." Shen Xiaoru laughed.

After hearing this, Ah Po subconsciously wanted to take a look at Qiu Lingfu, but he still didn't really look over: "I'll go with Qiu Lingfu."

Shen Xiaoru's surprised expression lasted only for a moment, but she suddenly came to her senses: "I was still wondering how you knew Qiu Lingfu was here. It turned out to be a good deal. No wonder Qiu Lingfu swore that you would come, I still don't believe it."

Ah Po forced a smile, and asked her again: "Senior Sister, how are you feeling?"

Shen Xiaoru heard it strange, the few of them have been in the arena for several years, helping each other and being independent of each other, why Ah Po suddenly cared about her: "Of course, why..."

Before the question was finished, Qiu Lingfu suddenly interjected: "Of course he cares about you. Xiaoru is so good-looking, anyone should care more."

Shen Xiaoru had a delicate mind, and immediately sensed the mystery of the atmosphere between the two from the tone.

Looking at the two in secret, Qiu Lingfu looked lazy and unaware of the truth, while Ah Po's face was abnormally silent, and he didn't like to go over to chat with Qiu Lingfu as he used to.

Growing up together, Shen Xiaoru rarely saw Ah Po with such a cold face, and she didn't know what happened.

Not someone who likes to interfere, Shen Xiaoru could only smile and say to the two of them: "Since you're here, don't be afraid to delay for a while. I picked some leaf seedlings yesterday and left after eating."

"Okay." Apo nodded.

This breakfast is nothing more than porridge and vegetables, not even a speck of minced meat.

The food was neither tasty nor spicy, so Qiu Lingfu took a few mouthfuls and put down his chopsticks.

"Eat more, I'm afraid you will have to stay until dark on this road. It's not sure whether there is food on the road, and putting a few cakes will make it even tasteless." Seeing Qiu Lingfu's dissatisfied expression, Shen Xiaoru felt a little amused , "You didn't want to eat these things a few days ago, didn't you starve all night for nothing?"

Qiu Lingfu hesitated a few times with the chopsticks, and then put a few more mouthfuls into his mouth.

After the meal was full, Ah Po went to prepare an extra horse, and the two packed up and prepared to leave and go on the road.

Before setting off on the road, Ah Po saw Qiu Lingfu taking something from A Ze's bed, as if he had just snatched something.He didn't say a word, but secretly reminded Shen Xiaoru to ask for it back.

After being pointed out on the spot as being so stealthy, Qiu Lingfu's face remained unchanged, he threw the bag to Shen Xiaoru, and went to play again without blushing.

After the thing was brought back, everyone found that it was a small bag of copper coins, about ten pieces.

Aze was furious, changed his usual indifference, and collided with Qiu Lingfu.

"Why do you want me to ask?" Shen Xiaoru looked at A Ze and Qiu Lingfu fighting together, and smiled at A Po who was packing his luggage, "I didn't know you could be so stiff that you didn't want to say anything."

Over there, Qiu Lingfu's rogue face made A Ze so angry that his face was gloomy. A Po took a look and came back to his senses: "A word from a woman is more useful than me putting a knife on his neck."

When Shen Xiao heard this, he thought of Xu Bichuan, Sun Jinghong of Huayuye. These men who have been influenced by Huayuye, are either meticulous or gentle. Even Qiu Lingfu is more respectful to women. point.

"Let's go." Ah Po put Qiu Lingfu's luggage on the horse and tied it firmly, "I found old man Xu this time, so I will go to Houtu and see if there are any clues."

Thick soil is the hometown of the Bai family, and it has profound meaning to them all.They rarely mention it in front of each other, but they always remember it in their hearts.

Shen Xiao paused as if he wanted to speak: "But that place...we have been there countless times."

"I hope this time will be the last time." Ah Po said.

Obviously, it has been delayed for a whole night, and I still have to hurry, but it is only a few steps out of Ziyu, but it took another half a day.

The two were in front of each other, but Ah Po's deliberately smeared face and the bamboo hat seemed to have no effect at all, because the big thorn in Qiu Ling's endowment exposed that eye-catching face. There are many knights in the purple domain, and some People quickly recognized Qiu Lingfu.

"That's Qiu Lingfu, then the tall man in front must be the young hero Ah Po with extraordinary martial arts."

"Well, it must be, old man Fanjiu said."

"..." Ah Po heard these words, and looked back at Qiu Lingfu, who actually got on the horse in the middle of the downtown, as if he was afraid that people would not recognize him.

"Come down quickly, are you afraid that others will not know our whereabouts?" Ah Po reminded.

Qiu Lingfu didn't bother to look at him: "Why don't you sit on a horse? Walking will tire me."

Qiu Lingfu didn't pay attention to those gazes and comments at all. He only saw the delicious and sweet food on Ziyu Street. Qiu Lingfu, who hadn't eaten breakfast, naturally reached into his sleeve and touched it. Only then did he remember that the money he brought had long ago Spent by myself.

When Qiu Xiaoshi was not around, Qiu Lingfu never had to think about food, clothing, housing, transportation and money. Now that Qiu Xiaoshi, who was not good at martial arts, was placed in Huayuye, Qiu Lingfu's life was completely unsatisfactory.

When I found Shen Xiaoru here, the clothes on her body were filthy, not as good as some elegant beggars. Later, Shen Xiaoru fetched water for herself to wash before changing.

After living in Ziyu for a few days, all the money that Xu Bichuan prepared for him was squandered. Fortunately, Xu Bichuan had the foresight to prepare a few pieces of jade for himself.

Touching the pieces of jade in his bosom, Qiu Lingfu was about to take them out to spend, but his eyes fell on Ah Po who was walking in front.

"I want to eat bean cakes, buy me two." Qiu Lingfu ordered.

Ah Po glanced at the bean cake stand on the side of the road, the small vendor had obviously heard this, and was smiling courteously at him.

"Silver." Ah Po stretched out his hand.

"I don't have any money, I'll spend it on you." Qiu Lingfu was shameless when he reached out to ask for money.

Ah Po looked at him for a moment, then laughed at himself: "Do you think I have money?"

There is no dilapidated part of his body, that is, he is clean and tidy, but he does not look sloppy.

"How dare you go on the road without you? Could it be that you came here by burning, killing and looting all the way?" Qiu Lingfu didn't believe it, "I'm the master, you have to obey me, otherwise..."

"I don't have enough money for you to waste." Ah Po didn't want to listen to his next threat.

A little bit of calculation was made along the way... But it was wasted on collecting unnecessary news.I thought it would be okay to save a few meals in the next few days, but I didn't expect to add another person to the itinerary.

Whether it's good or bad, it's still this money-spending Qiu Lingfu.

"Whether it's enough or not is up to me, I want to eat it now." With a fresh master status, it's even more unreasonable to speak.

Ah Po looked at Qiu Lingfu's aloof appearance on the horse for a while, and suddenly smiled: "It's not that I don't want to buy these things for you...but if you spend the money, it will be useless on the road, You don't regret it."

Of course, this is not a threat to Qiu Lingfu: "Of course I don't regret it."

I don't feel sorry for spending money by myself, so how can I regret it when I exploit other people's money.Not only do you not regret it, but it is too late to be happy.

What's more, there are still a few pieces of jade in his arms, so it's a big deal.
