Beauty is sick

The short wooden stick was overwhelmed and soon broke in two.

Jin Lingjiu took Pei Zhe forward two steps, pointed to the thin chains exposed on the side of the corpse: "A secret room of this size can't hold anything, and it is usually built as a tunnel leading to the outside world. The tunnel cannot be opened as the secret room is opened. Open, this kind of chain should be connected with the entrance of the tunnel."

Pei Zhe listened curiously, and looked at the chain hanging from the corpse's back: "You mean, the other end of this thing is a tunnel?"

Jin Lingjiu's answer was very conservative: "It might be."

Pei Zhenahan: "A incense shop in a small town, what kind of tunnel is built? If it is true as you said, the thirteen incense shops should not be simple, and I don't know what secrets are hidden inside."

The corpse had not been left for too long, and there was no corpse odor, only a strong smell of blood.

Jin Lingjiu covered his mouth and nose and took two steps back: "If you want to know what's the secret, just go and have a look. Is Pei Lang going to walk this tunnel?"

Pei Zhe's eyes lit up: "Is it possible?"

Jin Lingjiu nodded, and looked around for something convenient: "This kind of small place, I know there won't be such a mysterious mechanism, and we can enter after finding the entrance of the tunnel, but we need to get this corpse out of the way first."

There are corpses blocking here, so there is no way to check and find the tunnel.

There was no handy tool in the room. Jin Lingjiu looked at the wooden shelf for drying materials, and with an idea, he took out a short dagger from his sleeve, and with three strokes, he removed the legs of the shelf on one side.

Pei Zhe sighed in admiration, and looked enviously at the dagger in his hand: "It cuts iron like mud, it's extremely sharp, it's a good weapon."

Jin Lingjiu put away the dagger with his backhand: "I'll find you a better one tomorrow. This one has some minor changes. The method of applying force is different from ordinary daggers. If you don't care about it, you may hurt your hand."

Pei Zhe blinked: "Brother Jiu is more careful, come on, leave it to me, you step back, don't get your clothes dirty."

Jin Lingjiu endured his disgust and entered the room. It was really a big challenge to touch the corpse. Since Pei Zhe had said to take over, he didn't force it.

Pei Zhe shook his head and smiled helplessly: "I thought you would at least refuse."

"Why should I be polite to you?" Jin Lingjiu snorted lightly, "Pei Lang loves me so much, if I refuse, I'll be so ignorant."

Pei Zhe gave him a determined look: "I just like you being so honest."

Jinling nine smiles.

The chain was inserted into the corpse, and it couldn't be removed with the legs of a wooden frame. Pei Zhe looked at it carefully, but there was nothing he could do, so he stretched out his hand to Jin Lingjiu: "You have to lend me your dagger."

The matter has not been investigated clearly, he does not want to destroy the body, and is going to cut off the chain directly.

Jin Lingjiu didn't say much, and directly threw the dagger over.

Pei Zhe still remembered what he said just now, and carefully pulled out the dagger. The handle of the dagger was different from the usual one, and the place near the tiger's mouth was slightly bulged.

Pei Zhe pushed the corpse away with his wooden legs, stretched his arms to reach the thin chain, and cut the chain with a strong swing of the dagger.

Without the support of the chains, the corpse immediately turned its head down and rushed towards him.Pei Zhe was taken aback, and quickly pushed with his wooden legs, and at the same time jumped back, barely avoiding the close contact with the corpse.

Pei Zhe patted his chest, feeling terrified, damn it, it was scary.

Jin Lingjiu laughed loudly: "Pei Lang's skill is so strong that no one can compare it!"

Pei Zhe: "..."

Following the thin chain, a small circular hole was found next to where the corpse stood.

Pei Zhe pulled the chain: "It's stuck inside, I can't pull it."

Jin Lingjiu looked at the circular hole and asked him to step back a little: "The entrance should be near here, and a key is needed."

Pei Zhe frowned: "What key?"

Jinling Jiu compared the positions of the chain and the hole, and analyzed: "The locks here are locked together, and there is no sign of separation. The locks of secret passages are generally divided into two types. One is the lock that cannot be unlocked, and only the key can be opened. One is a mechanism lock that can be unlocked directly, and the one here should be the first one, which requires a key to open."

Pei Zhe shook the chain, feeling a little headache: "We can't find the key."

There is such a big secret hidden here, there are dead people and secret passages, no need to guess, the key must be in the hands of the real owner of this incense shop.

Pei Zhe stared at the hole with regret, and sighed: "It seems that there is no way to enter the secret path today, and we have to find another way."

Jin Lingjiu caught his drooping hair and twirled it with his fingertips: "Is this going to be a retreat? Your man is very capable, and secret ways are nothing. Even if you want to go to the sky to pick up stars, I can send you up there too." .”

Pei Zhe's eyes lit up, and he didn't even pay attention to his words "your man": "Can you open the lock of this secret passage without a key?!"

Jinling Jiu Shi cast a sideways glance at him and said nothing, but his meaning was very clear: Yes.

"I really picked up a treasure, didn't I, sweetheart?" Pei Zhe teased.

Jin Lingjiu patted his forehead: "Don't make trouble."

Pei Zhe bent his eyes and shook open the folding fan: "My dear, please, I will fan you."

Jinling Jiujing Xie Bumin: "Forget it, let's blow the wind around the pillow some other day."

Pei Zhe: "..."

Jin Lingjiu took the dagger and tapped it near the hole: "Don't be offended if I go too far later."

Pei Zhe didn't take it seriously, how much could it go too far?Can you still blow up this place?

When Jin Lingjiu pulled the chain and stabbed the dagger into the hole, Pei Zhe suddenly realized something, and hid back.

Bi finger turned along the hole, and the iron plate on the ground was thick enough to be cut open by the dagger.

Jin Lingjiu's angle was very tricky, completely avoiding the chain and prying around the hole.

Pei Zhe asked curiously, "Why didn't you just cut the chain?"

Jin Lingjiu weighed the things in his hands: "If you cut this, you won't even think about going in."

He pried open the iron plate and signaled Pei to fold over: "Look."

Pry up a circular hollow iron plate near the hole without damaging the chain in the middle. Without the cover of the iron plate, you can clearly see where the chain extends from.

There's a whole thick piece of iron out there, and that's where the chains come from.

Jin Lingjiu tapped the iron block in the middle with his dagger: "This is the lock, if it is broken, we won't be able to get in."

Pei Zhe threw the shaved iron plate aside, nodded thoughtfully: "Are you going to unlock it?"

Jin Lingjiu put away the dagger, and turned his right hand into a knife: "I will show you a unique skill."

As he spoke, he slammed his palm on the iron block.

Pei Zhe was shocked: "You don't want to die, stop!"

Jinling Jiu ignored it, and struck again twice.

Pei Zhe's heart almost jumped out, and he threw himself on Jin Lingjiu, forcibly stopping his movement: "Is this the way to open the secret passage? I won't enter!"

He is curious about the secret of Xiangpu, but he doesn't want to achieve his goal at the cost of hurting Jin Lingjiu.

"Don't want to go in?" Jin Lingjiu had a smile in his eyes, "But I've already opened it, so if I don't go in, isn't it a waste?"

Pei Zhe didn't speak, took his hand and looked at it carefully: "Huh?"

Jin Lingjiu wrote lightly: "No injury, everyone said it was a stunt."

Pei Zhe was silent for a while: "Don't do this in the future."

There must be a price for the so-called stunt, and no one knows whether it will affect the body in the future.

Jin Lingjiu met his gaze, saw that he was full of worries, pondered for a while, and nodded: "Listen to you."

Pei Zhe didn't know the mechanism of the secret path, so Jin Lingjiu moved around the chain a few times, and then pulled it out to lift the iron block from the ground.

"Since it can be opened in this way, why did you split it just now?"

Jin Lingjiu froze: "That's to break the key inside."

Pei Zhe always felt that something was wrong, but Jin Lingjiu made a real move. He shook his head, thinking that he was thinking too much.

After removing the iron block, a long tunnel was revealed, the inside was pitch black, and it was unknown where it led.

Jin Lingjiu frowned in disgust: "I don't know how long no one has come in, it's dirty enough."

Pei Zhe looked it up: "This should lead to the outside, usually just walk through the door, and there is no way to go through the tunnel."

Jin Lingjiu nodded: "Yes, do you want to go down now?"

Pei Zhe followed his line of sight and felt a headache when he saw the corpse's face with blurred features: "Let's go and have a look first, the corpse will still disappear, right?"

After making up his mind, he went down the tunnel.

Pei Zhe walked in front, Jin Lingjiu clasped his hands in disgust: "I sacrificed a lot this time, you have to make it up to me when you go back."

"Okay, okay, I'll make it up to you." This is a real grievance, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the initiative to bring it up, Pei Zhe felt a little moved.

The inside of the tunnel was dark and damp, with a musty smell, and the light coming in from the entrance was not enough to support them to go down. The two lit a fire and continued on.

In the claustrophobic environment, the sound of footsteps is amplified, and the ground is slippery, as if stepping on wet moss.

After walking along the tunnel for a period of time, I smelled an earthy smell, mixed in the musty smell, which was not very clear.

Pei Zhe groped backwards and grabbed Jin Lingjiu's hand: "Be patient."

If he slipped and fell, the hard-to-serve Ninth Young Master of his family would immediately quit.

Jin Lingjiu snorted lightly, as an affirmation of his behavior.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, there was a musty smell in his breath, and Jin Lingjiu coughed from choking.

Pei Zhe fumbled in his arms, but he couldn't find a handkerchief. He had no choice but to tear off a piece of his sleeve and cover his mouth and nose: "Let Xiao Jiuer suffer with me, and I will never ask you to come here again." place."

He moved so fast that Jin Lingjiu had no time to stop him. When he realized it, his nose was already covered.

Pei Zhe's hand holding Huozhezi was sweating, and he heard Jinling Jiuweng's voice saying, "It's useless to say these things, if you want to come next time, can I stand by and watch?"

Pei Zhe was helpless and funny: "You can ask Zuo Ping and the others to accompany me, nothing will happen,"

He sort of understood why Jinling Jiu had to bring so many people with him when he came out. Zuo Ping Mu Jiao on the bright side was numerous in secret, probably to avoid coming to this kind of place in person.

Jinling Jiu smiled slightly: "I don't feel relieved to hand you over to them."

Pei Zhe's heart was moved, and he suddenly heard him add: "How many catties and taels are they, why don't they tell you to deceive you until there is no bone left?"

Pei Zhe: "..."

You fucking worry about them, not me? !

Arms were chilly, Pei Zhe felt sorry for his sleeves, he was careless, this dress is so expensive, he just bought it and didn't wear it a few times, it's not worth ruining it for such a thing!

Jin Lingjiu stared at his face, and smiled: "Go back and compensate you for the whole set, and find a tailor who can make me a suit. How about red, it suits you."

red?Pei Zhe never wore such a bright color when he grew up: "To suit me?"

Jin Lingjiu nodded: "It can also be used as a wedding dress."

Pei Zhe: "..."

I'm afraid that's what you really think.

The two walked out while chatting, which greatly diverted their attention, and they came to an end in a while.

The exit of the tunnel was blocked, the light and shadow were mottled, not as dark as in the tunnel, and the surrounding environment could be seen clearly.

Pei Zhe extinguished the Huozhe, didn't bother to stay and observe, and took Jin Lingjiu straight to the exit.

Pushing aside the grass, one can see a barren open space. At a glance, there is no house, and the grass is overgrown, and occasionally the terrain is undulating and continuous.

Pei Zhe was stunned for a moment: "This is..."

Jin Lingjiu took a deep breath to dispel the musty smell from his mouth and nose. He slowly put away the "veil" cut off from his sleeve, and then said: "The terrain is uneven and irregular. You Look at these small hills, do they look like tombs?"

Pei Zhe's expression was not very good: "Are we at the cemetery? Isn't this tunnel just for throwing corpses?"

Throwing away the body?Jin Lingjiu was stunned for a moment: "There is some truth in what you say."

Pei Zhe waved his hand: "Just saying it casually, if you really want to throw the body away, how can it be convenient to walk so far and the tunnel is so narrow?"

The two did not continue to discuss the usefulness of the tunnel, but first observed it near the exit.

Pei Zhenahan: "There are only weeds on the grave, not even a tombstone. It doesn't look like a serious dead person, but who throws the corpse so meticulously and buries it separately?"

Jin Lingjiu was amused by him: "What is a decent dead person, and are there still unscrupulous dead people?"

Pei Zhe plausibly said: "A decent dead person is a person who died clearly, otherwise it is an unscrupulous dead person, such as the corpse blocked at the entrance."

The corpse was nameless, and they didn't know anything about it so far. There were too many mysteries about him, and it was no longer possible to simply investigate the cause of death.Why the murderer killed him behind the scenes and what kind of secrets he hides are the key to the matter.

It's just that they are pressed for time, and I'm afraid they won't be able to stay here to find out. Thinking of this, Pei Zhe is a little worried.

Jin Lingjiu patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's take a look around and see if we can find anything related to the tunnel."

Apart from this, there is no other way, Pei Zhe sighed and parted ways with him to look outside.

The location of the exit is hidden, surrounded by weeds and jungles, it looks like a mountain here, but they don't know the boundaries of this place, so they can't tell which mountain it is and which direction it is in the city.

While searching, there was a sudden voice not far away, Pei Zhe quickly turned around, ran to Jin Lingjiu, and pulled him to squat down.

"...Tell me the truth, did my father do something?"

"Feel sorry."

"You are all like this. If my father doesn't tell me, my senior brother doesn't tell me, and you don't tell me, I'm all kept in the dark."

"Master is for your own good."

"For my own good, but if I do something that hurts senior brother without knowing it, how do you want me to deal with myself?"

Pei Zhe blinked: "This is..."

Jin Lingjiu lowered his eyelids, wondering if he was thinking about Mu Jiao's words, or thinking about something else.

Zuo Bing didn't answer, and the two faced each other under the tree not far away.

Pei Zhe held Jin Lingjiu's hand, and said in a low voice, "Did Jiang Yulou arrange for Mu Jiao to come to your side to find out the news?"

Jin Lingjiu frowned: "She doesn't know my master's plan."

Pei Zhe knew that, judging from Jin Lingjiu's subconscious behavior of defending Mu Jiao, he probably didn't want to involve Mu Jiao in this matter.

Jin Lingjiu’s actions can’t be wrong, Mu Jiao asked Zuo Ping these things are justifiable, both of them have reason, Pei Zhe thought: “Mu Jiao is not a little girl anymore, you and Jiang Yulou are her close people , you want to protect her, and she also wants to protect you, I don't think it's a good choice to hide it from her."

Jin Lingjiu sighed, "I just don't want her to be in trouble in the future."

Pei Zhe could understand his thoughts, and grabbed a blade of grass casually: "Don't think about these annoying things, I have always been curious, isn't Jiang Yulou's surname Jiang, why is his daughter's surname Mu? His alias is also surnamed Mu?"

Jin Lingjiu was taken aback: "Master never said his name."

"This is weird. He named Mu Jiao Mu, and the father and daughter should have the same surname." Pei Zhe wondered, "He kept his name incognito and didn't want to use Jiang Yulou's identity. Why not admit it?"

The two looked at each other, and Pei Zhe asked, "Has Jiang Yulou ever married? Mu Jiao is younger than you, you should know who she was born to?"

Jin Lingjiu's expression was ugly: "It happened to be the age you asked before. I had a serious illness, and I don't have any memory of that time. After I recovered, I saw Mu Jiao. But in my impression, Master didn't Which woman walked too close."

"Isn't this just a coincidence, I'm not talking nonsense." Pei Zhe looked at the two people not far away, and asked in a low voice, "Is Mu Jiao really Jiang Yulou's daughter?"

Jin Lingjiu couldn't answer this question: "Master treats Mu Jiao very well and loves her very much. Except for the need to practice martial arts, almost everything is up to her."

Pei Zhe: "Must I practice martial arts?"

Jin Lingjiu nodded: "That's right, we have studied and lived with Master since we were young, and everyone's homework is different. For example, I want to learn classics and history strategies, hidden weapons in martial arts, and other miscellaneous things, while Mu Jiao only needs to learn martial arts. For this reason, the master specially found a senior with strong martial arts to teach Mu Jiao."

He originally thought that the master was afraid that Mu Jiao would not be able to protect him well, so he asked her to practice more martial arts, but now it seems that there may be more than that.

"If Mu Jiao is not Master's daughter like me, why would Master do this?" Jin Lingjiu was puzzled, "Why didn't you lie to me and say that I am also his son?"

What else could be the reason? It must be that you are different from Mu Jiao. Judging from the degree of Jiang Yulou's love for Mu Jiao, he obviously prefers Mu Jiao. It's just that after leaving the blood, I don't know where this preference comes from.

Pei Zhe thought about it for a while, but he couldn't figure out why. He just thought that Mu Jiao's surname would not be chosen casually: "Jiang Yulou may be patient, and he has no children, so he asked you to help him take care of him."

Jinling Nine: "..."

"If Mu Jiao finds out about this, can she still help him collect his corpse?" Pei Zhe was already dissatisfied with Jiang Yulou's poisoning of Jin Lingjiu, and he was not forgiving.

Jin Lingjiu rubbed his hair: "To me is to me, and it has nothing to do with Mu Jiao. The master's kindness to Mu Jiao alone is beyond reproach."

Pei Zheyi said: "Why is it good? Maybe it's because I have a guilty conscience. For someone like Jiang Yulou who can even be used by his apprentices, let him treat a person with all his heart and soul. Not to mention whether it is difficult or not, there must be something. reason."

This is ugly, but it makes sense, Jin Ling Jiushun thought about it for a while: "It is impossible to be true as you said. Master owes Mu Jiao something. She has been by Master's side since she was a child, and she has never seen Master hurt her."

Pei Zhe couldn't think of it for a while, but he didn't want to let go: "Maybe it's not the harm to her, but to her biological parents?"

Jin Lingjiu couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't guess, it's too far away, and there is no evidence to prove that Mu Jiao is not Master's daughter."

Pei Zhe threw away the crumbled grass: "There will always be evidence."

Seeing that Mu Jiao and Zuo Ping were about to leave, the two thought for a while, then appeared and stopped them.

Zuo Ping and Mu Jiao appear here, they must know where it is, there is not much time, so it is unrealistic to check slowly.

"Jiuye?" Zuo Ping was very surprised, "Why are you here and make yourself so..."

There was a lot of dust on Jin Lingjiu's clothes, and he looked very embarrassed.

Pei Zhe changed the topic with a guilty conscience: "Why are you here?"

Mu Jiao was stunned for a moment: "We've been here all along."

Pei Zhe: "What place is this?"

Mu Jiao was dumbfounded by the question: "Huh?"

Pei Zhe squeezed the space between his eyebrows, Jin Lingjiu saw that he was in a mess, and asked for help, "Is this in Wuyin Mountain?"

Mu Jiao nodded: "This is the foot of the mountain, some distance away from the nunnery. It's quiet and open. We've been practicing near here for the past two days."

Pei Zhe was stunned, and turned to look at Jin Lingjiu: "Then how does the tunnel lead to Wuyin Mountain?"

Jin Lingjiu couldn't answer, and spread his hands.

Mu Jiao asked curiously: "What authenticity? Tell me, brother, when did you come here?"

Jin Lingjiu briefly explained: "We found a dead body in the incense shop in the city below the mountain. There is a tunnel in that shop. We came from there."

Zuo Ping exclaimed in astonishment: "Master Jiu, you also came from the tunnel, did you make yourself like this?"

It's not over, I know your ninth master Jingui, I will definitely provide for him next time.

Pei Zhe interrupted them: "Hurry up and find out if there are any clues around here. I have to go back and look at the corpse later."

Several people searched around, but found nothing useful.

Mu Jiao squatted next to the exit, looking curiously: "I have been here for several days, and I have never found this thing."

Pei Zhe snorted: "Don't say you didn't find out, I don't believe it now, I went up the mountain from the city, damn it, I don't even know how the river crossed."

From Wuyin Mountain to the city, they need to pass through the Huai River. They came through the tunnel and didn't feel it at all.

Now it seems that this tunnel is probably dug from the bottom of the Huai River, leading directly to the Wuyin Mountain. The Wuyin Mountain is sparsely populated, and this place may be a deserted cemetery.

Jinling Jiuyou said quietly: "I'm afraid this tunnel has been abandoned long ago, otherwise it wouldn't be so messy."

Pei Zhe also tended to say this. They didn't find any clues here, and the entrance was dusty, so it didn't look like someone passed through.

This trip came back in vain, and several people discussed to rush back to the city as soon as possible. Now, if they want to unlock the secret of the thirteen incense shop, they can only start from the corpse.

I didn't take the tunnel when I went back, and went down the mountain and water normally. When I arrived in the city, it was almost evening.

A group of people surrounded the entrance of the incense shop, and in the middle was an official servant who was ordered to stay, and he was looking anxiously.

Pei Zhe waved his hand and stopped his shouting: "Go in and talk."

As soon as he entered the incense shop, the official immediately asked: "My lord, why did you come from outside? We have been guarding here, and we haven't noticed that you have come out."

Pei Zhe didn't answer, and took him to the backyard: "Have you ever been to the backyard?"

The official said truthfully: "We couldn't find you, so we went in and looked at it. Don't worry, we didn't touch anything inside. Old Liu has been guarding in the backyard."

Pei Zhe said "hmm": "You did a good job."

In the backyard, another official called "Old Liu" squatted at the door, and when he saw them approaching, he immediately stood up: "What are you doing, my lord?"

Pei Zhe didn't have time to explain, so he pointed inside: "Do business first."

The corpse was still placed next to the entrance of the tunnel, and Pei Zhe and two officials squatted beside the corpse to study it. He just heard Jin Lingjiu briefly explain the cause of death, so it is easier to judge now.

Zuo Ping and Mu Jiao were used to seeing dead people, so they took one look and left, and turned to look at the secret road.Jin Lingjiu couldn't stand the smell, so he sat in the yard.

The two officials had never seen this kind of battle, so they couldn't come up with an idea. Pei Zhe said something, and they echoed it, and they couldn't give any useful information at all.

Pei Zhe got up helplessly: "Take the body back to the yamen, and then bring someone over to seal up the incense shop. The shopkeeper doesn't have to let it go, just leave it in the yamen."

It is necessary to find out the identity of this person before proceeding to the next step of the investigation.

The two officials responded and left with the corpse. Pei Zhe, Jin Lingjiu and the others walked around the backyard and returned to the shop.

Mu Jiao and Zuo Ping were whispering, discussing the tunnel.

Jin Lingjiu pushed the two of them aside, and wandered around the counter of the incense shop by himself: "Does Pei Lang have any incense you want?"

Pei Zhe was very interested: "Do you have the one you use?"

Jin Lingjiu: "Didn't you read it?"

Pei Zhe: "It wasn't the shopkeeper before. Although he knows incense, he may not be able to take out all of it. You can find out if there is any fish that slipped through the net."

Jin Lingjiu had no choice but to look for the incense he had used.

Sure enough, there is no cold fragrance of plum blossoms.

Pei Zhe was filled with regret, pulled Jinling Jiu, and took a deep breath: "Forget it, with you here, it doesn't matter if you can find it or not."

Jin Lingjiu was silent for a while: "...Are you treating me like a body balm?"

Pei Zhe sneered and didn't refute.

Mr. Liu sent a message asking them to go back to detoxify. When the government officials came, Pei Zhe and others went back to Wuyin Mountain.

After retreating to detoxify, Jin Lingjiu was detained in the house, Pei Zhe was worried, and followed him to stay on the mountain.

During this period, people from the mountain came to send a letter, because Mr. Liu didn't like others to go up the mountain, Pei Zhe asked them to send it to the foot of the mountain, and then sent Zuo Ping, Mu Jiao and Yun Wuyang to fetch it.

The government didn't find out the identity of the man, they only knew that he was from another place, like Xiaoxiang's side, and couldn't find out more.

Pei returned the letter and asked them to continue to seal the Thirteenth Bureau Fragrance Shop, close the shopkeeper first, and wait for his next instruction before making any plans.

The poison of Jin Lingjiu stayed in his body for too long, and Mr. Liu took a long time to remove it. When Jin Lingjiu came out of the house, seven or eight days had passed since the detoxification began.

During this period of time, Pei Zhe received a letter from Fu Qingliu, saying that the crisis in Yecheng had been resolved, so he didn't have to worry.

Baihua City was in turmoil, and Feng Tingyu was restrained. The reason for this was not mentioned in too much detail, but it was vaguely mentioned that it was related to the Fanbang royal family.

Now that Yecheng is safe, they don't have to rush back.

After detoxification, Jinling Jiu didn't change much. The only thing worth mentioning is that he is not as cold as before.

Pei Zhe touched Jin Lingjiu's hand and smiled with satisfaction: "It's not like holding a piece of ice."

Detoxification consumes energy and physical strength, Jin Lingjiu has been sluggish for the past few days, and only raised his eyelids when he heard this: "Why, do you dislike holding a piece of ice?"

Pei Zhe hurriedly begged for mercy: "How can I, if you are cold, I can cover you, but I am afraid that you will freeze yourself when I am not by your side."

This sentence is very normal, but it doesn't sound very pleasant to the ear, Jin Lingjiu frowned: "It's fine if you stay here all the time?"

Pei Zhe smiled without saying a word, and pulled his arm to pillow him.

Jin Lingjiu suddenly became agitated, with a sense of uncertainty in his heart: "You should answer me."

Pei Zhe sighed: "You are getting more and more savage, I just agreed with you, can you believe it?"

Jin Lingjiu said in a fit of anger, "I believe."

Pei Zhe broke into a smile, hooked his neck, and planted a kiss on the side of his face.

After some intimacy, Jin Lingjiu's eyes darkened, and he suddenly said, "Want to elope with me?"

Pei Zhe was stunned: "Elope?"

Jin Lingjiu lowered his head and rubbed his face with the tip of his nose: "Elope, I want to take you away, so that no one can find you."

"Okay." Pei Zhe didn't take his words seriously, and asked rather curiously, "Where does Brother Jiu want to take me?"

"Anywhere, it could be the South, it could be the desert, the ends of the earth, it's always a place that no one else can find." Jin Lingjiu squinted his eyes and conceived in his mind.

Pei Zhe frowned inexplicably, Jin Lingjiu didn't look like he was joking, he suddenly realized something: Jin Lingjiu's poison was originally used to suppress his illness, but now that the poison has been cured, his illness... …

"Don't you want to?" Jin Lingjiu's voice was deep, low and dark.

Pei Zhe was slightly startled, and immediately denied it: "No, I am willing to be with you, what am I not willing to do?"

Jin Ling glanced at him with certainty, seeing that he didn't intend to joke, so he eased his brows and eyes just now, and snorted softly, like a cat being groomed, making a comfortable sound.

Although Jin Lingjiu had possessiveness in the past, it was not as obvious as it is now, with almost no scruples.

Pei Zhe hooked his chin: "Have you figured out where to take me? The previous ones were too broad. Is there any specific place?"

He doesn't mind taking a walk with Jinling Jiu, this great river and mountain, if you don't take a look at it now, I'm afraid there will be fewer opportunities in the future.

Jin Lingjiu understood what he meant, the emotions in his eyes were ups and downs, his breathing was trembling, and he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart: "There is a place..."
