Chapter 20: Looming Clues (2)
The room was quiet again, except for the occasional sound of footsteps and talking in the distance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info is an inn in the end, and it can't be absolutely quiet, sparse and sparse sound, and it can always remind Cen Kexuan from time to time that now when he goes out, there are people around him, and it is difficult to read people's hearts. She looked at the teacup on the table, which had bottomed out, saw the bottom of the black cup, and once again remembered what the masked man said, under the protection of the Bai family, once she left without permission, she would definitely be worried about her life. She firmly believes in this.
She suddenly felt that the road ahead was difficult and quite hesitant. Tired of shuffling and lying on the bed, looking at the white gauze tent above his head, his thoughts gradually emptying a little. She remembered that in the winter when she was fifteen years old, she had suffered from a severe wind chill, and she had been lying on her bed, bedridden with a thick quilt, and her chest aching. After drinking the medicine brought by Dou Lan, he turned his head to look at Zizhu outside the window, his eyes should be light, but they were covered with a layer of mist.
is seriously ill, but the person she misses is not by her side, she thinks, the loneliest time in her life is nothing more than this. The feeling of abandonment and loneliness swept through her body, as if she was in a vast snowfield, helpless, and sad in her heart, which made her, who had always been optimistic, suddenly despair.
That day, Dou Lan stood quietly on one side, silent for a long time, and finally had to sigh lightly, took the medicine bowl and went out, and carefully closed the door when leaving, Cen Kexuan was as if he hadn't seen it. But for a moment, the light and shadow in front of him flickered, and a figure jumped in the window instantly, and the sound followed.
"Little Xuanxuan." Shulan held a flower in her hand and shook it in front of her, her long flowing hair was pulled up, and she smiled like a peach blossom. She turned her eyes to look at the object in his hand, which was a bouquet of lotus flowers as cool as snow, cold and demonic, glowing with a cold brilliance, making all around him feel cold. Her voice was hoarse, "Where did this flower come from?" ā
Shulan didn't answer her, and put the flower into the vase by herself, "Put it in the room, don't water it, anyway, as soon as the winter is over, it will be gone." When Shulan said this, her eyes were rarely very melancholy. She insisted on asking him, "What kind of flower is this?" Shulan tilted her head and smiled slightly, "Xiao Xuanxuan, let me tell you a story." ā
"I don't listen." She suddenly became petty.
Shulan couldn't help but snort softly, "I don't want others to hear it, but you really don't know what to do with such an opportunity." If you really don't listen? He immediately stared at her with a smile, as if this was a great opportunity, and if Cen Kexuan refused, there would be no second time.
Cen Kexuan looked at him suspiciously, puzzled. If you think about it carefully, Shulan is indeed a mysterious figure that is difficult for others to see, and listen to him, don't miss something terrible, and then you should blame yourself for being willful. She sat up, pinched the corners of the quilt, covered her body, and hummed in a low voice, "Say it." ā
Shulan smiled like a peach blossom, sat down on the edge of the bed, cleared her throat and said, "The story is like this. There was once a rich lady in Luoyang who unfortunately fell into the water while rafting and suffered from the cold, and she has been ill since then. His parents spent a lot of money to find famous doctors all over the world, but still could not find a cure, and saw that the young lady was already dying, but one day they met a very handsome young man, who gave a flower to the couple, this flower is crystal clear, cool like snow, but has no roots and no leaves. The couple placed the flower in the lady's room, and the flower withered overnight, and the girl, who had been seriously ill, woke up the next day. With that, the room fell silent.
Cen Kexuan raised his eyebrows: "It's over?" ā
Shulan smiled and nodded: "It's over." ā
Cen Kexuan bit a finger and said with a headache, "That...... Handsome, showy, extreme, young man, are you talking about yourself? Shulan's eyes lit up, and she smiled and exclaimed, "It's so smart." Cen Kexuan didn't bother to pay attention, raised his head and looked at the faint and cool flowers in the vase suspiciously, and said in disbelief, "You said this thing can save people's lives?" Or even bring the dead back to life? ā
The corners of Shulan's mouth crooked, "Believe it or not." It seemed that he had just told a random little story that he didn't know whether it was true or not, but his unbeatable expression seemed to be laughing at Cen Kexuan's ignorant questioning.
How credible is this story? Cen Kexuan seemed to be in thought, frowning and considering the truth of these words, and after a long time, he said slowly, "Where did you get these things?" Shulan said impatiently: "Why do you care so much." Cen Kexuan sighed and muttered in a low voice, "I can't die, what's the use of it." She blinked her eyes and looked at the cold flower again, and muttered to herself, "You are so capable, can you bring my brother back to me?" ā
Shulan looked up to the sky and sighed, "It's really brainless, no one knows where your brother is now, who knows what year and month he will come back?" Maybe it's already been-" Cen Kexuan was angry and immediately shouted, "Shut up!" ā
Shulan had no choice but to stop talking for a while, moved forward, squirmed, and sat side by side with Cen Kexuan in a few clicks, quietly looking at the sunset outside the window. Zizhu's silhouette fell on the window, adding a bit of loneliness, coupled with Cen Kexuan's uncomfortable body, it was rare for the two of them who were chirping on weekdays to sit side by side so quietly.
However, after only a moment, Shu Lan seemed to be unable to hold back, opened her mouth and continued, "Actually, I really hope that you will stay in Ziyun Palace forever. He glanced at Cen Kexuan, and shook his head funny, "If he comes, you are destined to leave." ā
Cen Kexuan said strangely, "You don't want my brother to take me away?" "Shulan Dao," It's just that you don't know the good luck, and after recognizing him, your fate will be unpredictable." Shulan was rarely serious, Cen Kexuan was about to ask carefully, but he had already gotten up, walked out slowly, halfway through, paused again, turned his head and added, "This flower is afraid of heat, you can't touch it more." ā
Cen Kexuan only remembered his previous words, clenched his fingers on the futon, and gradually retracted. After recognizing him, her fate was unpredictable, although she knew the difficulty of things at that time, she never expected that there would be many dangers at the beginning of stepping out of the Purple Cloud Palace.
Looking for my brother, I'm afraid I have to find another way.
After eating some of the meals sent by Doulan, the doctor who was invited from nowhere was brought into the room by the bamboo horse, in view of the events in the afternoon, Cen Kexuan was still not very relieved, she asked the bamboo horse again and again, and made sure that this was a genuine doctor, so she finally stretched out her hand with confidence and let the doctor show herself. The doctor closed his eyes and checked his pulse for a while, and sure enough, he diagnosed that she had inhaled some drugs that could hinder people's internal strength.
Cen Kexuan nervously asked him what the consequences would be, and the doctor said that he would gradually get better after a few hours without special treatment. She finally put her mind at ease, sent the doctor away, and sent the noisy little girl out of the room by the way.
After making sure that her body was fine, she suddenly dropped her full body weight and fell on the bed in a daze, her mind blank. It's safe and sound, but if you can't get out of here, what's the point of staying for three days? She thought of the bright tip of the knife in the afternoon, and her heart couldn't help but tighten. Fortunately, the martial arts of this group of people are not very strong, and they were inexplicably rescued later, so they finally saved their lives and returned to the inn alive.
Although I still don't understand what is going on, if I go out next time, I'm afraid that the killer's level will not be as easy to deal with as it is today. It seems that only those who obediently follow Yujing Villa first, it is important to save their lives. As for my brother, I had to put it down for the time being, after all, the future is long.
She lay on the bed and sighed three times, covered the futon over her head, and was about to sleep well, when suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, jumped up from the bed, and went straight out of the door.
