Returning to you in the depths of the white clouds

Xu Yuqing didn't know how many times he tried to open the lock.The design of the lock is very fine, the very small buckle has [-] small beads inside, you need to try out the correct arrangement, and then dial it to the right position.He struggled all night before opening the first floor, but he couldn't move the second floor.After all, Miss Jin's tools were not fine enough, and they were too awkward to handle. In addition, at night, his body became cold again, and his fingers became more and more stiff.

With a "creak", the door was pushed open and closed again.Without looking back, he knew who came in.

"Don't make noise." The thin copper wire just happened to touch an abacus, and he was trying to hear the sound to identify its position, trying to find its position.

"Hiss..." The bead slipped down from the tip of the copper wire and failed again. Xu Yuqing turned her head and blamed the person behind her: "If you don't come back sooner or later, you come at this time."

Gu Linfeng glanced at the things on the table, it was the long wooden box they brought out from the crypt.He simply sat down at the table: "Isn't this opened?"

"The first floor has only been opened." Xu Yuqing fiddled with the wooden box and motioned him to look: "This box is very delicate, at first glance it only has this layer, but if you look carefully at the thickness of the box, there is definitely more than one layer. I will check carefully. After a long time, I discovered that there is an invisible lock on the side of the box, and I can only see what is in the next layer when I untie it.”

Gu Linfeng leaned over and took a look: "This little space is probably a document like paper. It can't be forced, and it will be destroyed if you are not careful."

"That's right," Xu Yuqing nodded, "The tools here are still not fine enough. I'll be able to open the upper layer after working for a long time. When I see Jiang Fang, ask him to get me some handy tools. Let's talk about it later. "

"What's the upper floor?" Gu Linfeng was curious.

Xu Yuqing had already wrapped the things that had been disassembled earlier in cloth, and now unfolded them for him to see.As they guessed before, this wooden box was stolen by Fu Sheng from the Internal Supervision Bureau, and it contained the things that Qiu Shujing had cut off.In addition, there is a jade ring.

"It seems that there is nothing important on this floor." Gu Linfeng looked at it and said.

"Tsk," Xu Yuqing dissatisfied: "How can you say it doesn't matter?" He pointed at the jade ring, "Do you understand, it's called a mandarin duck clasp."

The jade ring was in the shape of a half-bend, with patterns engraved on it, and upon closer inspection, it was a mandarin duck.

"This kind of jade rings are all in pairs, there must be another one, the pattern can match, it is an excellent token of love." Xu Yuqing gossiped: "Do you think there will be another one? On Concubine Yuan?"

"Then we won't see it either."

"Tch, boring." Xu Yuqing saw that he was not flattering, gave him a glance and rewrapped the things.It seemed that the wooden box could not be opened now, so he also put it away and put it away.Turning around, seeing Gu Linfeng still sitting there looking at him, he asked a question as if he just remembered.

"How's it going over there tonight?"

"I didn't help either, Yunpei took care of it pretty well." Gu Linfeng explained what happened at the dinner party in a few words, and then conveyed Yunpei and Jin Niangzi's arrangements.

Xu Yuqing nodded after hearing this: "This kid is capable. I just don't know how Bai Er and the others are doing in Los Angeles."

"If Yingxianglou is really found, I'm afraid Jingzhou will also be targeted?" Gu Linfeng said.

"Then don't worry." Xu Yuqing knows the Bai family's property like the back of his hand, "They have their own real estate in Jingzhou, and they have nothing to do with Yingxiang Building on the surface, so they probably won't be able to find out there for a while."

"En." Gu Linfeng seemed to hesitate for a moment before finally asking: "Why are you so obedient today?"

He originally thought that Xu Yuqing would find an opportunity to come to the dinner party to find out after waking up, and he also specially explained a few words to Mrs. Jin.As a result, Xu Yuqing sat here all night thinking about how to open the box, which surprised him a bit.

Xu Yuqing leaned back on the edge of the bed, feeling a little cold again, so she reached out and pulled the quilt on the bed to cover her legs: "What's so strange about this? I can't use my internal strength now, and I still get sick every now and then. What can I do when I go away?" ?” He smiled self-deprecatingly, “You have thought very hard, and you even gave me a scent to help me sleep.”

When he woke up, he felt that the fragrance had a calming tone, so he guessed that the fragrance had added sleep aid medicine.This remark was originally a test, but Gu Linfeng was silent for a while, as a tacit consent.

"It's just a sleep aid, and I can sleep for two or three hours at most." He reluctantly explained.

"Really," Xu Yuqing said lightly, "Did I do something wrong when I applied the needles? Why am I so sleepy in the middle of the day?"

This tone is really angry.Gu Linfeng had no choice but to say: "... At that time, I didn't know what was going on with Yunpei, so I wanted you to sleep for a while."

"Gu Linfeng... Do you think I'm too burdensome?"

"sorry."

Xu Yuqing was taken aback when he heard this.With his current physical condition, Gu Linfeng didn't want him to go out, and made him sleep all afternoon, which was not incomprehensible.But he was naturally dissatisfied with this matter.At this time, let's talk about it, there is no shortage of venting.But he never expected that Gu Linfeng would admit his mistake so easily, which made him a bit at a loss for what to say.

"It's not that I think you're cumbersome." Gu Linfeng was still explaining seriously, "You're worried about Yun Pei, I'm afraid you're like before...too aggressive."

When Bai Er was seriously injured back then, the interior of Yingxiang Building was in chaos, and some traitors even took the opportunity to defect, almost revealing the secret of Bai Wu's identity.Gu Linfeng was originally called to treat Bai Wuzhu's injuries, but he saw Xu Yuqing go around putting out and lighting fires, doing a lot of extremely risky things.For this reason, they did not quarrel less.

"It's different now from then..." Xu Yuqing let out a breath of cold air, "Besides, why do you keep remembering the shitty things from so many years ago..."

"Maybe I'm jealous."

"...?!" Xu Yuqing felt choked, and didn't know how to respond to these words.

While hesitating, Gu Linfeng sat on the edge of the bed at some point, half leaning forward, looking straight at him: "I liked you before. You should feel it now?"

It's so strange, obviously people are still keeping a distance, but one sentence after another makes Xu Yuqing feel like he's being pushed by every step of the way.

"You...you..." He wanted to say something, but it might be because the cold air started to rise in the night, his body suddenly became stiff, and his mouth seemed to become uneasy. "You" couldn't say anything for a long time So yes.

Gu Linfeng looked at him for a while, but didn't ask him for more.He reached out, grabbed his, and began to channel his inner strength again, ready to help him through another difficult night.The abundant inner breath poured in gently, warming his body a little bit.

Suddenly, Gu Linfeng exerted some strength with his arm, and pulled Xu Yuqing over at once, and pulled him into his arms.

"Yu Qing," he hugged him tightly, exhaling hot breath in his ear: "I don't want to be your senior brother anymore."
