startled autumn

Xueludan, after taking it at night, it feels like falling into an ice cellar, the cold is unbearable, within the next seven days, the time of poisoning is advanced day by day, and the symptoms are also aggravated. On the seventh day, if the poisoned person cannot take it Without the medicine, they could only greet the morning light of the eighth day in a deep sleep, but their heartbeat gradually stopped, like a bird sleeping in the cold winter, and died silently before the arrival of spring.

Today is the seventh day.

Han Bi understood that tonight he had to make a choice, whether to leave or stay.

He left, and Shen Zhiqiu died.

If he stays, maybe he will die with Shen Zhiqiu.

This was originally an excellent question to answer, but for the first time, Han Bi felt hesitant.

"If you didn't do too much, why should I be so entangled now." Han Bi said softly.

In fact, he really wanted to leave Shen Zhiqiu here to fend for himself, and never cared about it.

Not only that, but Han Bi couldn't help thinking that it would be great if Shen Zhiqiu could be a little smarter. Even if he couldn't be smart enough to make him suspicious, or even make him fearful, at least he should be like an ordinary person, full of wariness towards others.

But Shen Zhiqiu was not like this.

He is very frank, and can tell the whole story of his past that cannot be recalled; he is so simple that he doesn't know the boundaries between friends and lovers, he was deceived by his crush, and he thought he was only a friend; He is very focused, and his pursuit of kendo has never changed; he is very committed to protecting him, and he really keeps his safety in mind at all times.

If these words were told by others, Han Bi would not believe a single word.

It's just that Shen Zhiqiu is different. The more Han Bi investigates his past, the more he feels that this person is the same and has no flaws.

He broke Han Bi's original imagination, and exceeded all Han Bi's expectations. He rushed into other people's lives, said some embarrassing things unconsciously, and wished to be Han Bi's friend.

Han Bi looked at Shen Zhiqiu in his arms, and realized in a daze, since when did I accept others getting so close?

Thinking of this, he woke up in an instant, had no choice but to temporarily suppress the thoughts in his heart, and hugged Shen Zhiqiu to the bed beside him. Seeing that his lips were already pale from the cold, he quickly called Han Banbu into the room, hugged two quilts and wrapped him He wrapped himself up and asked Han Banbu to fetch warm water to feed him.

Han half-stepped the order, so he had to try to feed Shen Zhiqiu water, the rim of the cup was on his lips for a long time, but Shen Zhiqiu refused to open his mouth.

"Young master, he refuses to drink." Han Banbu first complained aggrievedly, then suddenly had a whim, and smiled: "Otherwise I will put the water in my mouth first, and then pass it to him?"

After all, Han half-step was about to drink that mouthful of warm water.

Han Bi had no choice but to stop him: "Back off, let me do it."

Han Banbu was shocked: "...Young Master?!"

Han Bi pulled Han Banbu away, and pinched Shen Zhiqiu's cheek roughly, causing his mouth to open slightly, before pouring water into it little by little.

Han Banbu was relieved, the young master's innocence was preserved.

However, at this time, Han Bi saw that Shen Zhiqiu's lips were pale and not as good as before, so he couldn't hold back for a while, rubbed his lower lip with his fingertips until a little blood appeared, and then took the handkerchief beside him in satisfaction Wipe the corners of his mouth for him.

Han Banbu: "..."

His worry was indeed right, the young master really changed.

Han Bi glanced at him: "Why do you look at me like this?"

Han half-step shook his head in pain, seeing Han Bi showing impatience, he hesitated and said: "I, I'm just surprised that you can take care of people."

"It's just feeding him water."

"Young master, with all due respect, this is the first time I have seen you in the 20 years since I followed you."

The Han family is a noble family in the capital, with profound heritage and favored by the sage, it is normal for the mansion to call on slaves and maidservants. Since Han Bi was born, he has been pampered and treated with dignity, and his hands are not stained by mundane things. Although he does not like outsiders to get close, On weekdays, he mostly takes care of himself, but taking a step back, it is absolutely not his turn to take care of others.

Not only Han Banbu knew about this matter, but Han Bi naturally also understood it in his heart.

His heart sank with a thud, but his face remained unchanged, and he reprimanded Han Banbu: "What a fuss."

Han Banbu glanced at Shen Zhiqiu who was lying unconscious on the bed, and sighed: "Young master, you are biased."

Han Bi: "I haven't."

Han half-step looked forward to it: "Then next time when I'm sick, you can also feed me medicine."

Han Bi asked him sincerely, "Is poison okay?"

Han Banbu wanted to cry but had no tears, he pulled the edge of the bed with a sad expression on his face.

There was a crisp knock on the door outside, and Han half-step opened the door to see that it was Qinglong.

After Qing Huan entered the door, she first greeted Han Bi with a salute, then glanced out of the corner of her eye, and saw Shen Zhiqiu wrapped in the cotton mattress as expected, and said softly: "Tomorrow morning will be the eighth day, if you don't I'm afraid it's too late to take the medicine."

Han Bi pulled down the bed curtain with his hand, blocking Qing Huang's sight, then stood up, and looked down at Qing Huang: "If that's the case, what about the antidote?"

Qing Yan sighed: "Young Master Han, you should understand that the antidote is in your hands, you can give it if you want, if you don't want to, he can only wait to die."

Han Bi remained silent.

Qing Yan looked at Han Bi's expression and felt that his eyes were piercingly cold, so she couldn't help but turn her head sideways for a moment. After thinking about it, she mustered up the courage to persuade him: "Since you named him Han Banbu, you want him not to leave you. It's half a step, isn't it? If that's the case, don't you have the heart to watch him freeze to death?"

The real Han Banbu stood aside, forcibly holding back his smile.

Han Bi: "It's not me who hurt him."

Qinglong had nothing to say.

Han Bi: "I know that you must have an antidote with you when you come here."

Qing Ling: "It's useless for you to grab it hard. He has already had cold poison in his body, and he has to take medicine once every seven days to suppress the poison. If he passes this level, he will not pass the next level."

Seeing that Han Bi didn't answer, Qing Huan's thoughts flew back to that day. She made fun of Shen Zhiqiu and threw snow on his body. Shen Zhiqiu turned around with a serious expression and clear eyes. Anti-adding two points of charm.

She really liked Han Bi's appearance at first, with a kind of handsomeness that catches others' attention, but at that moment she felt that Shen Zhiqiu was more reassuring.

Although the temperament is cold, the essence is very gentle.

Qing Yan: "I chatted with him that day. When he mentioned you, he said you were gentle, careful, and open-minded, and he also said to me, 'It's a very happy thing to be his friend', but I didn't expect that he would be so kind to you. A piece of sincerity, but you are indifferent."

Gentle, careful, open-minded.

It was the first time that Shen Zhiqiu thought of him like this, but Han Bi knew it. The only pity was that none of these three words had anything to do with him.

Shen Zhiqiu is probably the only person left in this world who would regard him as such.

Han Bi had doubts from Shen Zhiqiu's chills for no reason on the first night, but he never showed the slightest sign of giving up on Shen Zhiqiu from the beginning to the end. In addition, this made Shen Zhiqiu confide in Han Bi, while Qing Huan watched from the sidelines, and also felt that the two of them had a deep love between master and servant, and they would never leave each other.

Therefore, Bai Yan thought that Shen Zhiqiu was enough bargaining chips, and stood still all the way until he reached Quheng and fell into his trap.

Along the way, Han Bi showed great care to Shen Zhiqiu, even being ambiguous, wasn't it for this reason?

Now is a great time, if he leaves, he will be able to find another chance to avenge Shen Zhiqiu after he returns to Beijing.

That being the case, what is he hesitating about now?

Shen Zhiqiu was lying behind the curtain of the bed, gradually regaining consciousness, feeling cold all over, especially in his heart, it seemed that there was a chill flowing to his limbs and bones, which made him shiver uncontrollably.

Wrapped in a quilt all over his body, it was still cold, so cold that he couldn't open his eyes.

Han Bi noticed his movements, subconsciously leaned over and asked softly, "Is it cold?"

Shen Zhiqiu recognized that it was Han Bi's voice, faintly rippled like a breeze blowing leaves.

He wanted to say that I was fine, but in the end he could only shake his head, only the tight lips and furrowed eyebrows betrayed his true feelings.

Han Bi secretly exercised his inner strength, and put his warm palm on his forehead. It was just a little bit of warmth, but Shen Zhiqiu showed a relaxed expression. It's a pity that his face was still pale, and his life was not long.

Death comes so fast.

I also thought about it, you may be lying to me like Shiwu, and you don't really want to make friends with me, but...

At that time, Shen Zhiqiu had only half-spoken these words before he passed out.

"Forget it, I still want to hear what you will say in the second half of your sentence." Han Bi slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and there was a deep softness in his voice, but also a kind of unspeakable irritation, "How dare you compare me to that kind of person?" Compared with people, what kind of brain do you have?"

Once upon a time, there was a stone that got in the way and jumped into the bottomless water on its own.

This piece of silent stagnant water has just raised a slight wave.

Before Qing Huan left the room, she looked at Han Bi hesitantly for a long time.

Finally, she took out a waist pendant, put it in the palm of her hand, and handed it back to Han Bi. It was exactly what Han Bi gave her when they met in the secret passage.

Qinglong: "I'll give it back to you."

Han Bi smiled without saying a word.

Qing Yan gritted her teeth and said: "This jade pendant smells very fragrant, although it is very shallow, if it is used for tracking, it is enough, Mr. Han, I never imagined that you would plot against me."

Han Bi's waistband is like amber, but it is a rare golden fragrance jade, which emits bursts of fragrance. Although the fragrance is light, the human nose cannot easily smell it, but if it is a dog, it can track hundreds of people along the scent. inside.

"I never thought that you would carry it with you everywhere."

He originally wanted to try his luck, but he didn't expect to be lucky every time.

After all, Qing Huan was still young, so she couldn't help being ashamed for a moment when she was teased by Han Bi like this: "I just forgot to throw it away, it's not because I don't want to."

Han Bi saw her and Shen Zhiqiu making jokes along the way, and he knew that she looked sharp-mouthed, but in fact she was hard-hearted, so he pushed back the waistband and said with a smile, "Take it, this time it is really for you to be a gift." As a souvenir, if you don't like it, it doesn't matter if you throw it away."

Holding the waist pendant, Qing Huan lowered her head and said: "Actually, I also want to thank you. Fortunately, you didn't tell the leader about the waist pendant just now, otherwise I would definitely die."

Han Bi: "Although we just met by chance, I don't want to kill people for no reason."

Qing Yan could tell that Han Bi was using this to blame her for harming Shen Zhiqiu, her face flushed with shame, and she said softly, "I actually didn't want to hurt him... Mr. Han, please say sorry to him for me .”

As soon as the words fell, she turned around and ran away holding the waist pendant.
