Chapter 478: Cold Autumn

The ice-blue silk handkerchief was only embroidered with silver silk thread and a bundle of edges, which was embroidered by Linglong himself for Yan Xu.

Silk Pari is wrapped in a palm-sized agarwood small round box, carved with He Xiangu holding the lotus picture, He Xiangu has a quiet face, a graceful expression, and the carving is extremely exquisite. Agarwood has both the attributes of oil and wood, the texture is uneven, the grease is not good to handle, so the requirements for the carving are very strict, the round box in front of you, although it is a small thing, but the lines are soft, the character demeanor is lifelike, do not ask the source, only by the material and carving, this box is already a valuable boutique.

When I opened the box, there was a bead the size of a pigeon's egg, glowing softly in the yellow light.

The pearl of the night.

This night pearl is even bigger than the one that Yan Xu stole from Yonghua Palace to give her.

I don't know where I stole it this time.

If you are a thief, you won't care about that.

Last time, she was decorated on the jade Linglong, Yan Xu asked her why she didn't have jewelry, she once said that it was the queen mother's thing, and she was worried that she would be seen when she wore it.

I think it was for this reason that Yan Xu found another one for her.

Linglong's heart was sweet, but the original anxiety also calmed down.

Du Kang is his right-hand man, and at this time, he also sent Du Kang to give her beads, and the situation should be under his control.

Linglong let out a long breath, she put the night pearl back into the agarwood box, and she will get it to the golden jade building tomorrow.

After putting away the beads, Linglong called Xingyu who was on duty at night, and went to the study to find the chess pieces in the flat wooden box.

There is only one pair of chess in the entire capital.

Linglong took a pen and wrote a letter, hidden in the dark layer of the chess box.

This dark layer was discovered by her accident.

On that day, Mao Shizi hid 100,000 taels of silver tickets in this secret compartment and let people secretly bring them to the capital from Fujian.

It's just that Linglong didn't know much about this matter, but she also guessed that Yan Xu knew that there was this dark layer.

So she hid the letter here.

Moreover, with this pair of chess to hide the letter, there is another layer of meaning, she is convinced that with Yan Xu's cleverness, she will be able to understand it.

When she returned to the martial arts hall with the chess box, Du Kang had just put the Rubik's Cube into his arms, and Linglong didn't see it.

In addition to the chess box, she also brought Du Kang snacks and dry food to eat on the road, as well as a bulging cowhide water bag.

Du Kang is not a person who drags mud and water, put the chess box in the leather bag behind his back, and said goodbye to Linglong, but after a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the night.

Linglong stared in the direction in which Du Kang had disappeared, and suddenly understood why she had looked at Du Kang differently from the beginning.

It's not because of Du Kang's stunning looks, nor because of the murderous aura she exudes from her bones.

It's because Du Kang is like a person.

A person she imagined, whom she had never seen, not even a real photograph, a person who existed in legends but had been imagined countless times by her.

Cold autumn.

The cold autumn she imagined was like this, beautiful as a fairy, cold as frost, as simple as a machine, a machine that obeys orders.

Du Kang was shocked to see her shot, and almost missed.

If it were a cold autumn, it wouldn't be.

Linglong was seriously injured when she was twelve years old for the first time to take orders to do business, and then Qin Mary invited an expert to show her the injury, and the expert only looked at her hands, and when it was confirmed that these hands did not have to fall into the root of the disease, Qin Mary was relieved, and drank tea with the man outside, and Linglong heard the man say: "You don't have to worry, Leng Qiu's hand has also been injured, and this little point in the house is smaller than Leng Qiu's back then, and it recovers faster." ”

At that time, she heard the name Leng Qiu for the first time, and when she asked later, she learned from her master that Leng Qiu was her uncle.

Leng Qiu is the same sister of Mary Qin, and it is said that she lost her hand while doing business and has been dead for many years.

She has seen Leng Qiu's photo, Leng Qiu in the photo is an ordinary-looking woman, Qin Mary rarely mentions it, and no one on the rivers and lakes has mentioned Leng Qiu, at that time Linglong thought that Leng Qiu had done nothing, and the starlight was covered by the same senior sister.

It wasn't until she was dying that she learned from the old man who ended her life that the reason why Leng Qiu was unknown was not because she was not as skilled as others, but because she received orders involving royalty or dignitaries from various countries, and it was just secret, and even the world's top spy department did not have her detailed information.

But Leng Qiu didn't die, she disappeared, disappeared on the way to find her daughter.

No one thought that such a person would also have children.

When the nurse held the baby girl in her arms to show her, Leng Qiu suddenly shouted: "This is not my child, where has my child gone?" ”

The children who were born for the first day looked about the same, but Leng Qiu could see at a glance that the nurse handed her was not the daughter she saw yesterday by virtue of her hurried side in the delivery room.

Her daughter was secretly replaced.

Leng Qiu ran out of the ward like crazy despite her postpartum weakness, and there was no clue on the hospital's surveillance, her daughter, like a dewdrop, disappeared in a short moment after coming to this world.

Leng Qiu also disappeared, and no one has seen her since, and twenty years later, on that small island in the Atlantic, there is a female thief who resembles Leng Qiu, and she has a pair of dexterous hands like Leng Qiu.

Leng Qiu's husband is the cousin of Qin Marie's childhood sweetheart, and he is also the one who abolished Qin Marie's legs.

Long before Leng Qiu gave birth to a child, he died in a dangerous operation.

Leng Qiu's daughter is his widow.

Because their work was secretive, little was known about their marriage, but there were people with bad intentions who would hear about it.

Linglong stood alone in the martial arts hall, looking at the window illuminated by the lantern and dyed red, in a silent daze.

The cold autumn she imagined should be like Du Kang.

Leng Qiu is very beautiful, she also loves her daughter very much, but unfortunately she was born too late in this life and can't see her.

Back in the room, Linglong took out the peculiar wine jug that Yan Xu gave her and looked at it silently for a long time.

Even a meteor will leave traces through the night, and since Leng Qiu has been here, of course there will be traces about her, such as the old Persian named Ma Rufeng, such as this wine jug from modern times.

Maybe this wine jug was really brought by Leng Qiu, since the first time she got this wine jug, Linglong thought of Leng Qiu.

She wouldn't believe that there were so many time-traveling women in this world, and one of them was already amazing.

One-one-one-one-one-one

Yesterday, the left arm was sore and swollen, thinking that it would be fine to sleep, but in the morning it was woken up by pain, and what stickers of sunflowers seemed to work, and now it is much better, but it still hurts a little, but the feeling of soreness is gone.
