"I got it."

"Master Gu?" Zhui Li couldn't understand what it meant.

"If he wants to kill me, then I will definitely not resist, but you... There is no need to say these words. Maybe Li Qianjin has already made up his mind to kill me, but he just wants to wait." Otherwise. , today will not be so abnormal.

Shii Li hesitated to speak, but finally chose not to say anything, stood quietly, and gave up the explanation he was going to say.

Gu Shenghan also lost the interest to continue walking.

"Okay, let's go back."

"Yes."

The place where the carriage stopped was still some distance away from the bazaar. Walking slowly would inevitably take a lot of time, but at this moment in the carriage, Li Qianjin was bloody with one hand.

The blood was not someone else's, but his own.

With the passage of time, a black vein protruded from Li Qianjin's wrist, spreading all the way, but it grew a little more every day, and now it was close to the position of the heart vein.

That's why he didn't go with Gu Shenghan.

Wiping off the blood on his hands, the medicine bag that he had been carrying casually before slipped out.

Ordinary medicine sachets have a strong herbal smell, but this one doesn't. Is it filled with other things?

Opening the medicine sachet, it was indeed as expected, there were no herbs, but...

"Thank you." Li Qianjin whispered these two words.

The medicine sachet was put away again by him, and the cough gradually eased, as if it was really a good medicine.

But what it really is, only Li Qianjin knows.

Soon, Gu Shenghan came back with Zhui Lie.

He came back unexpectedly fast, and Gu Shenghan didn't have much joy on his face, so Li Qianjin couldn't help asking:

"But the Lantern City is not satisfactory?"

"No, very good." A very perfunctory answer, even more perfunctory than when I was in the medical center before.

"So... that's because I was thinking too much." Li Qianjin didn't ask any more questions.

Afterwards, there was silence, until Gu Shenghan faintly felt that something was wrong with the surroundings, "There...does it smell like blood?"

Gu Shenghan's nose is not very sensitive, but sometimes it is accurate and scary.

Li Qianjin's eyebrows twitched slightly, and some unnaturalness slid across his face, but he quickly covered it up, "Just now a guard's words and deeds displeased me, so I killed him."

Lied.

Li Qianjin just didn't want Gu Shenghan to know his current situation.

However, when this lie fell into Gu Shenghan's ears, there was another reminder. In the past, Li Qianjin would cover up his killings, but now he speaks out...

Gu Shenghan is suspicious by nature, sometimes his suspicion is right, but sometimes he is not.

But as before, he confirmed his guess, and then deliberately stayed away from Li Qianjin.

Li Qianjin didn't think too much about it, thinking that Gu Shenghan just stayed away because he hated it.

"Brother, is there any other place you want to go?"

"No." Gu Shenghan replied without hesitation.

"Then go back."

"Ah."

Being so docile unexpectedly made Li Qianjin a little more suspicious.

What's wrong?

Are you not satisfied with those?

About yes.

Li Qianjin was lost in thought, how can he make his senior brother happy?

After that, there was a long silence, no one spoke, Li Qianjin was thinking about something, and Gu Shenghan was the same, but what he was thinking about was when Li Qianjin would kill him.

It stands to reason that the prisoners in the prison have a good meal first, and then send them on the road, so...

The carriage is bumpy but slow. Although it is not as good as Yujian, it is a good means of transportation in this heavy rain.

Stumbling all the way, Gu Shenghan remained silent until the carriage stopped, and he had already returned to his original place of residence, but at this moment he spoke:

"I want to stay a little longer."

"Brother?" Li Qianjin was surprised.

"I've never been in a carriage before, and I want to sit for a while longer." Gu Shenghan explained in more detail.

"Okay." Li Qianjin also sat quietly with Gu Shenghan.

This kind of quietness, Gu Shenghan used to be absolutely boring, but now he thinks it is commendable, the sound of the rain outside sounds like a charm.

But this does not mean that Gu Shenghan will always be like this, "Junior brother, can you...can you answer a few questions for me?"

Li Qianjin would never refuse such a request, and it was the same this time, "Brother, please."

"You killed Governor Liu?" At the beginning, he always thought that Liu Qingming was deliberately punishing him, but now, he is Li Qianjin's subordinate.

You can't think that way anymore.

"Yes." Li Qianjin didn't hide anything.

"You framed me for revenge?"

"More than that, in order to force Dugu Xuan to leave the customs, he needs to find something, but only he knows the key to open that thing."

"Is the key bone jade?" This is just Gu Shenghan's guess, but Li Qianjin nodded, "But it's on me, so you, will you kill me?"

Gu Shenghan looked at the person in front of him firmly, not missing any changes in his face.

Li Qianjin hesitated, and after a long time, "Maybe..." But he didn't do it because of the previous promise, and because he felt that the person in front of him was more important than himself.

Li Qianjin didn't have time to explain in detail, so he was interrupted.

"That's really a coincidence. I thought the same thing as you when I knew I had to kill you in order to get the Demon Lord's token and go back." And I'm still hesitating.

Li Qianjin seems to have been treating him well, but he has also hurt him several times. If it weren't for this inexplicable liking, he would have been like a member of the Taixu family.

Such a person, now Gu Shenghan would feel a little creepy every time he got close to him.

"Since God has decided that we should kill each other, then, Li Qianjin, let's compete. This is exactly what you have always said to me before."

Gu Shenghan didn't want to die, but he didn't want to owe this person even more.

Such a decision is the best.

And maybe, Li Qianjin made his decision early in the morning.

But Li Qianjin didn't reply for a long time, and turned his head to the side, as if he was thinking, and he seemed to be covering up something.

But when Gu Shenghan was about to continue talking, Li Qianjin suddenly pushed him away and quickly got off the carriage.

Zhui Li held an ancient umbrella and had been waiting at the side for a long time. As soon as Li Qianjin stepped down, he covered the umbrella over Li Qianjin's head.

"Go back to the Forbidden Palace."

Li Qianjin's voice was a little urgent for the extremely short order, but his voice was deliberately lowered, and Gu Shenghan could hear it vaguely while sitting in the carriage.

And when he lifted the curtain, Li Qianjin was no longer outside.

What's going on here?

Among the remaining guards, one stepped forward, "Master Gu, do you want to go back to Lonely Palace now?"
