Chapter 048: Sleepless Nights (Plus Update)

"That's the birthday gift I prepared, and it's really not on me at this time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Ruan Jiuwu touched the empty sleeves and twisted his eyebrows. After thinking for a moment, she seemed to understand something, and continued, "Xu was those people who knocked me unconscious, stole the medicine bottle, and handed it to Agui. ”

"You were beaten?" Ye Che asked coldly.

Ruan Jiuwu heard the displeasure in his words, but he didn't know what he said wrong, so he could only answer truthfully: "I didn't leave the Lin Mansion, but I was knocked unconscious by someone outside the thatched house, and when I woke up, I was already lying in Yan Yuan." ”

"Hit here?" Through the tulle on the outside of her skirt, Ye Che stroked the back of her neck and gently pressed it twice.

I didn't expect him to suddenly make such an intimate move, and the little face that had already returned to normal color suddenly turned cherry red. Ignoring the stiffness of her body and the hindrance of the spring, she hurriedly broke free and stepped back, crashing into the stone wall behind her in a panic, gasping in pain.

Ye Che stood in place with his arms crossed, looking at her suspiciously: "This palace is just checking the injury, what are you thinking?" ”

“……”

Ruan Jiuwu avoided his gaze, and while dipping his body in the spring water, he meditated in his heart: he was just examining his injuries for himself, how could he have other thoughts...... This must be the cause of the aqua poison, it must be.

Looking at her flushed cheeks and strange expression, Ye Che's eyebrows wrinkled even tighter, it seems that the old man is right, the woman's mind is really hard to guess.

"That, thank you for your concern, except for the spring poison in my body, I wasn't hurt."

"Oh, that's the best, lest the little chubby girl come to me and cry again."

Speaking of Yuehe, Ruan Jiuwu's heart tightened - if she hadn't gone back for so long, that girl must have been worried.

"Can we get back to the deserted house tonight?"

"At the speed of Hongu, it is naturally possible." With that, Ye Che looked up at the light white moon that was about to rise in the sky, and the chill in his eyes suddenly deepened.

He almost forgot that today was the seventh day of the new lunar month......

Lin Mansion, Hibiscus Garden.

With a "bang", a whole set of celadon teacups was slammed to the ground.

Ma Shi pointed to the two strong men opposite, trembling with anger, "You say, where did that woman go!" ”

The two strong men in front of him were the "third" and "fourth" who were sent to guard the door.

"Mrs. Ma, we've been guarding the door, and we haven't seen anyone go out!" The third man said with a sad face.

When Ma Shi heard this, his eyes widened, and he roared angrily: "Okay, I paid so many silver taels, is this how you do things!" ”

"No, we ......"

The third brother was in a hurry to explain, but was hurriedly stopped by the fourth, "Third brother, let me speak." ”

Ma Shi glanced at them angrily, and finally fixed his gaze on the fourth child, "What are you going to say!" ”

The fourth child sneered, waved the machete behind his back and slashed at the table, and said viciously: "Mrs. Ma, to tell you the truth, no matter where that woman is now, don't think about taking out the money you paid again." “

"You scoundrels!"

"Haha!" The fourth child looked up to the sky and laughed, "We are not good people in the first place!" But ......."

"But what?"

"If you are willing to add another five thousand taels, we two brothers will go and look for that woman now, once we find ...... The results are sure to delight you! The old four eyes showed lewd eyes, staring greedily at Ma.

"Good!" Ma Shi agreed without hesitation, and at the same time took out a stack of silver tickets and handed it over, "This is three thousand taels, come to me and get the rest after the matter is completed." ”

The fourth child took the silver ticket and smiled "hehe", "Mrs. Ma is a cheerful person, then our brother will leave first!" ”

Ma Shi stopped him and said grimly: "There is a deserted house outside the city, which is her residence, you can go there and have a look first." ”

The two strong men answered, walked out of the door and leaped into the endless night.

Ma Shi looked at the direction in which they disappeared, tugged at the silk cloth on his head, and sneered: "Ruan Jiuwu, I want you to die a good death......

**********

In the open space next to the cold spring, a bonfire was blazing.

Ruan Jiuwu tidied up the dress on her body, and her face, which was as white and tender as the first snow, had returned to its former tranquility.

She looked at the inky back not far away and asked, "The clothes have been dried out, shall we go?" ”

Ye Che didn't speak, just raised his hand and waved, and the bonfire was instantly extinguished.

Then he turned around and his gaze fell on her, "Come here." ”

Ruan Jiuwu hesitated for a moment, but still walked over to him. As soon as he stood in front of him, he felt that his feet were light, and the whole person was held in his arms again.

"My poison has been cured, and I can go on my own."

"This is the southeastern border of Rui Kingdom, if you want to return home in three days, this palace naturally has no opinion." As he spoke, Ye Che made a gesture to put her down.

"Wait." In a hurry, she hugged Ye Che's neck violently, blushed and said, "Then, I'll trouble you." ”

Ye Che chuckled, and then the surrounding scenery blurred again, and quickly passed backwards.

In just half an hour, the deserted mansion had already appeared a few feet away, and as soon as Ruan Jiuwu got down from Ye Che's arms, he saw Qingying walking towards the deserted mansion from the way into the city.

"Palace Master!" As Qingying approached, he respectfully clasped his fists and saluted.

"Hmm." Ye Che answered, saw him with a solemn face, and asked, "What happened?" ”

Qingying looked at Ruan Jiuwu, and stopped talking.

"It's okay, just say it." Ye Che ordered.

"Yes!" Qingying clenched his fists again and said, "Back to the palace master, this afternoon, I saw the fox clan last time at the gate of the deserted mansion, they were sneaky, they ran away when they saw me, I followed all the way, and finally lost it." ”

"Oh? Do they know that Hongu lives here......" A sneer curled into the corner of Ye Che's lips, and he continued, "It's okay, if that's the case, they will definitely come again, and next time Hongu will meet them in person." ”

"Qingying, is Yuehe okay?" Seeing that they were done chatting about business, Ruan Jiuwu asked softly.

Speaking of Yuehe, Qingying's calm gaze suddenly softened a little, and replied: "She is very good, she has been waiting for you to come back, I am afraid that she is already in a hurry at this time." ”

"In that case, let's go inside." Ruan Jiuwu smiled, raised his feet and walked towards the deserted house.

Pushing open the open gate, the courtyard was pitch black and there was no light.

Ruan Jiuwu's heart had an ominous premonition, and she hurriedly walked towards the main house, she was about to push the door in, but Ye Che pressed her hand the door, and said in a low voice: "Wait a minute." ”

"What's wrong?" Ruan Jiuwu looked at him anxiously.

"You have to be mentally prepared that something might be wrong inside." Ye Che frowned, and did not say that he had felt the breath of checkmate.

"Tsukiyori!" She pushed Ye Che away and broke down the door.
