Weicheng snow

The overwhelming bats fell like hail, Yi Qingchen drew out his dagger to defend himself, relying on his proud skills, it was not too difficult to dodge.While raising his arms to protect his face and eyes, he looked for an opportunity to escape in the vast black shadows, but the opportunity didn't come, instead he saw a small figure curled up in the corner.

For a moment, I didn't know whether to escape or save.

He struggled for a while, but rushed to the child, took one of the children into his arms, and took off his outer clothes to protect his exposed skin. Dodged as nimbly as before.

The bat is under the control of Master Bat, and Lord Bat has never been a gentleman, so he naturally shifted his attack target to the child. If Yi Qingchen wants to protect the child, he must use his body to block the bat's attack.

Pieces of skin and flesh were torn off, Yi Qingchen only told himself in his heart that this was not even pain compared to falling off a cliff, but the child was crying heart-piercingly in his arms.At this moment, no matter how good-tempered Yi Qingchen is, he really wanted to yell at him, "Don't cry! I want to cry more than you!" But he restrained himself, for fear of killing the child who had finally been rescued Scared and ran back.

The more bats gather, the greater the resistance for Yi Qingchen to escape. In addition, he has to protect the child in his arms. Gradually, Yi Qingchen also realizes that he, who has not yet recovered [-]% of his strength, cannot take care of both at the same time. Yes, but it is even more impossible for him to throw the child back to be eaten by bats.Helplessly, he didn't even care about Jiang Zhige's situation, so he could only try to chop the bats that were trying to get close with his knife. He chopped off one, but thousands of bats rushed towards him.

"Who are you?"

"what are you going to do?"

"No, wait..."

Master Bat cried out in pain, and then he heard Hua Shenchi's calm threat mingled with anger, "Scatter the bat." Before Master Bat made a move, Hua Shenchi threw a silver needle Send it into his acupoint, the size is just right, the position is just right, and the pain is just right.

Bat Lord let out a heart-piercing howl.The bats scattered away, the moonlight covered the street again, Yi Qingchen raised his head, looking at Hua Shenchi who arrived at no time, with mixed feelings in his heart.Hua Shenchi didn't speak first, but there was a sense of reproach in his gaze towards Yi Qingchen.

Yi Qingchen hesitated for a moment, and chose to apologize, "I...should not be so reckless..." Hua Shenchi sighed helplessly, the black gauze on the bamboo hat was stirred by the night wind, A pair of deep eyes seem to be able to look into the bottom of Yi Qingchen's heart. The more Yi Qingchen looks at it, the more guilty he feels, and he lowers his head unconsciously. As a result, there is a blur in front of his eyes, and his legs begin to weaken, no matter how difficult it is to stabilize Staying in shape, he knelt down straight to the ground.

Seeing this, Lord Bat smiled triumphantly, "This is the bat poison that I am proud of. If there is no antidote, even a bear will turn into blood after one night and be sucked clean by my precious bats... ..." Hua Shenchi reached out and grabbed Master Bat's collar, lifted it, and asked coldly, "What about the antidote?" Master Bat said proudly, "No, after all, who would be idle and think about it?" How to save a dead body?"

Yi Qingchen couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, saving a corpse?This person in front of me has done it!It's just that before the joke was blurted out, he passed out.

This time he didn't go into the Shuangjiang Peak where he had been away for a long time, but encountered Zhenzhen directly in the darkness. Zhenzhen didn't seem to notice him, but was looking for something with the white-haired man until he approached, It was only when Zhenzhen realized his existence that he was a little surprised and said, "I knew you were going to mess around, I just reminded you not to violate the last two, and you've only been away for a long time, and you immediately did the third ...That's all...I still have some important things to do right now, I can't be distracted, when I have free time, I will go to sleep and do the divination for you..."

"...You go back first."

"During this time, I will find another person to help you..."

On the way of falling, Yi Qingchen has been thinking about the third "don't" content.no...

no...

You must not cut your own flesh and feed it to eagles?

Is that what it meant?

After Yi Qingchen figured it out, he felt a little helpless, this reference was too vague, and it happened so suddenly, how could he have the time to think about it?But listening to Zhenzhen's tone, his life seems to be saved.

It's a fortune in misfortune.

"Are you awake?" Yi Qingchen was woken up by Zhaoyu's rough face-washing technique. At that time, Zhaoyu was holding a half-dry towel in his hand, and rubbed it on Yi Qingchen's face. There were several bat bites on Qingchen's face, after being so roughly touched, his still chaotic consciousness came to his senses, and he sat up from the couch, clutching the wound and gasping, "My good sister, Can you be gentler, are you going to skin me?" When he opened his eyes again, he found himself and Zhao Yu alone in the room, so he asked again, "Where are Brother Mu and Brother Jiang?"

Seeing that Yi Qingchen had woken up, Zhaoyu took the towel and rubbed it in the basin several times, took it back to the couch, and threw it to Yi Qingchen to let him wipe it off by himself, "Young man went to the back kitchen to decoct the medicine. As for Jiang Zhi Ge, he hasn't come back since chasing Mr. Ghost Face last night, if he hasn't shown his face by noon, he will probably go to the Yamen to report the crime."

Yi Qingchen originally thought that Jiang Zhige would be rescued by Hua Shenchi just like himself, but he didn't expect him to return all night. Thinking of the fierce temper of the ghost-faced gentleman, if Jiang Zhige loses, even if If he wasn't killed, he might be imprisoned somewhere and tortured day and night, right?

Just then Hua Shenchi pushed the door and entered.He was holding a wooden tray in his hand, and there was a steaming dish in the tray. Seeing Yi Qingchen woke up, he went straight to the table without saying a word, put the tray down, and put two pieces of sugar in it. , just now walked to Yi Qingchen's side, carefully inspecting the wound on the latter's face.

Yi Qingchen let Hua Shenchi hold up his chin, raised his head, and asked about Jiang Zhige's whereabouts, "Mu, did you find Brother Jiang last night?" Shangxin only took out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve to wipe Yi Qingchen's wound, and replied lightly, "I didn't look for it."

It was only then that Yi Qingchen realized that everyone, including himself, was not very close to Jiang Zhige.Zhao Yu and Jiang Zhige are just simple subordinates, Hua Shenchi and Jiang Zhige are even more at odds, and his relationship with Jiang Zhige is no more than ordinary friends.When he was still in Weicheng, he realized that no matter what Jiang Zhige did, he seemed to be forcing himself. He was always smiling, very politely, but not necessarily very happy. We have been together for more than ten years, but there are no close friends around us.

Keeping a proper distance from the people around him at all times like this, even if he is upright, is a bit too much.

Perhaps all of this has something to do with his childhood experience of exterminating the family. Jiang Zhige's past must have involved the ghost-faced gentleman, which made Yi Qingchen think of the conversation between the ghost-faced gentleman and Jiang Zhige before he fell into a coma.

sorry?forgive?

Such words, no matter how they sound, seem to have hidden meanings.

What kind of secret is it that can force a pair of brothers into enemies who draw their swords...

"That's right." At this time, Zhao Yu, who had been sitting quietly drinking tea, suddenly remembered something, and pointed out, "The child you rescued last night was not injured and has been sent back. Coincidentally, it was the haunted child. Children in the troupe."

Yi Qingchen did not expect such a coincidence, does this mean that he might be able to learn the secrets of the troupe through this child?In this way, the fire in the theatrical troupe seems to be able to come to light.Although in Jiang Zhige's deduction, the one who set the fire is most likely the ghost-faced gentleman, but Yi Qingchen still thinks, is there any other secret behind this?

In addition to the Jiangling fire case, the fact that the ghost-faced man was pregnant with shark beads is also very suspicious. Judging from the performance of the ghost-faced man, the theft of the Weicheng shark beads was indeed not done by him. Necessary to lie about a case of theft.But if this is the case, where did the shark beads on his body come from?

Yi Qingchen told Zhao Yu about this, Zhao Yu showed an unbelievable expression after hearing it, put the cup back on the table, frowned and said, "How is it possible? Can you get the news of the Shark Pearl? The ghost-faced gentleman is very cunning, he really didn't try to fool you?"

However, Yi Qingchen felt that the reaction of the ghost-faced gentleman at that time was not pretending, but a real gaffe, so he shared his thoughts with Chaoyu, "In any case, the shark bead is now in the hands of the ghost-faced gentleman, our fundamental The purpose is also to bring the Shark Beads back to the imperial city, so the top priority is to hunt down Lord Ghost Face and prevent him from bringing the Shark Beads to the Old Daoist Heavenly Ghost."

After listening, Zhao Yu stretched out his hand and slapped the table, cursing, "Damn it, if I knew it earlier, I would chase it out together!"

Hearing the words, Hua Shenchi asked lightly, "Then why didn't you chase after him?" The implication is that if you two joined hands, the ghost-faced gentleman would not escape so easily, nor would he harm Yi Qingchen for protection. The kid is behind bars.

Zhao Yu was also very annoyed, "Jiang Zhige, that bastard, I wanted to chase after him, but he said he could handle it, and said that this was a case he was in charge of, and told me not to interfere and protect the people in the inn. As a result, he Ghost-faced Lord didn't catch him, but chased himself away!"

"Boom, boom, boom—"

The hasty knock on the door interrupted Zhao Yu's cursing, Hua Shenchi went to answer the door, and the moment the door opened, Xiao Er squeezed in anxiously, "Master, it's terrible, your friend is lying on the bed covered in blood. In front of the inn, I don't know whether it's dead or alive, I don't dare to touch him casually, you go and have a look!"

As soon as the words fell, Chaoyu bumped into Xiao Er and rushed out, Hua Shenchi was about to follow, when he caught a glimpse of Yi Qingchen sitting up from the couch, he stopped and turned to stop Yi Qingchen, " You rest." Yi Qingchen had already put on his boots, and although he was still a little dizzy when he got up, he didn't hinder his walking, so he insisted, "With your medicinal blood, the poison has been cured long ago, besides, it's not like the bones are broken Now, why are you so squeamish, you can't even take two steps?"

Hua Shenchi couldn't resist him, so he had to help him up with his hands, but before the two of them had time to go out, Zhaoyu had already carried Jiang Zhige back vigorously, Qiayi Qingchen vacated an empty bed, and Zhaoyu Then he put Jiang Zhige, who was covered in blood, on the couch.

She wiped the blood from her hands, pointed at Jiang Zhige and said, "He's not dead yet, but he lost a lot of blood. He should just pass out. I don't dare to make a conclusion about the specific condition, and I hope that Mr. Hua can take action." Jiang Zhige checked the pulse for a moment, then opened the latter's eyelids to look, and finally approved Zhao Yu's judgment, "It's really just blood loss, I'll prescribe a secondary prescription, you go and get the medicine, I'll make it for him Some simple bandages."

After Chao Yu left, Hua Shenchi neatly took off Jiang Zhige's tattered clothes, threw them on the ground aside, took some clean water to wipe off the blood on his body, and Yi Qingchen sat aside and looked at the flowers carefully. Shen Chi's actions as a doctor made me feel very nostalgic.

A basin of clear water soon turned dark red, Hua Shenchi took the basin and went downstairs to pour water, Yi Qingchen went to the bed to observe Jiang Zhige's injuries, looking around, he saw that Ling Luo had cut open everywhere The mouth, so shocking, can really only be described by the words "bruised and bruised".

After Hua Shenchi returned to the house, he continued to stop bleeding and apply medicine for Jiang Zhige. He was busy for more than half an hour. During this period, he still did not forget to tell Yi Qingchen to drink the cold medicine on the table. Yi Qingchen just remembered that he was also a wounded person. , then walked to the table, picked up the soup and drank it down.

"Hmm..." Jiang Zhige woke up leisurely. The moment he first woke up, he subconsciously clenched his left wrist tightly. The guard had just dissipated, and it turned into heavy fatigue, and he closed his eyes again, and slowly fell asleep.

Yi Qingchen noticed that the red string on Jiang Zhige's left wrist seemed to be missing, but right now is not the time to think about such things, Jiang Zhige is really tired.Just thinking about whether to vacate the room for Jiang Zhige to rest, before he could tell Hua Shenchi his thoughts, Zhao Yu hurriedly pushed the door open from the outside, "Jiang Zhige! Are you awake?" Big, it woke up Jiang Zhige who was still in a shallow sleep.

Zhao Yu saw the expression on Jiang Zhige's face, and realized that he seemed to be reckless, but he was already awake, and it was too late to back out, so he simply walked to the bedside and asked Jiang Zhige what to do. , "Where did you go all night?"

Jiang Zhige raised his hand and pinched his brows, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't ask..."

However, Zhao Yu couldn't accept such a coy attitude from a big man, "He couldn't just break your leg and make you kneel in front of him and slip under his crotch, what can't you say?" Jiang Zhige Hearing this, his expression became more complicated, "What are you thinking?" Zhao Yu said angrily, "Then you just say it!" For the sake of being seriously injured, he wanted to hit someone directly.

In the end, Zhao Yu was defeated by Jiang Zhige's persistence, and slammed the door out after scolding "sissy".
