Chapter 41: Endangered
readx; Night fell, and a few diamond-like stars rose from the darkening sky. The night breeze from the mountains and forests www.biquge.info brings a slight coolness on the skin with starlight.
The eye of the formation in the misty forest was in the center of the misty forest, and Zhong Yueyun and Li Xiaobei were not the only discoverers. On the contrary, many of the lost who are smarter than them discover this not very hidden eye for the first timeβthe only way to survive. But often the path of life is accompanied by different dangers, and in an instant, it transforms into a netherworld, just like the white bones under the water.
The misty woods were shrouded in mist, but the small pool in the center was not foggy. Such obvious information may not bring people life, but the bait of death. Many lost people will be bewitched by sapphires after entering the water, giving birth to illusions, and eventually becoming an occasional feast for aquatic creatures.
The small pond in the forest actually led to the small river outside the forest, and Li Xiaobei successfully dragged Zhong Yueyun ashore before he was exhausted.
Regardless of the defense of men and women, he pressed Zhong Yueyun's chest.
"Wake up... Wake up! β
"Ahem......" Zhong Yueyun choked on a mouthful of water. She raised her heavy eyelids, and saw Li Xiaobei's anxious face, "I... Am I going to die? β
"With me, you won't die!" The drops of water on Li Xiaobei's hair dripped down the corners of Zhong Yueyun's eyes, sliding down like tears.
"Didn't you say that there is a man named Qin Sheng in the broken temple outside the city who is Miss Su's true heart, I will go to him immediately, you will be fine, believe me!" Li Xiaobei pulled Zhong Yueyun's limp body on his back, didn't wait for a moment, looked at the starry sky to identify the direction, got up and left, very hurried.
"No... It's okay, I'm just dying here, too... Zhong Yueyun's life, I don't blame you...... It's just that it dragged Miss Su down......" Zhong Yueyun hooked Li Xiaobei's neck with the only strength he had left.
"What a drag! This is a disaster for her, and it is also a disaster for you. The master is a big disciple of Qingyun Mountain, with me, how can you accept your fate! β
β¦β¦
With human life on his back, Li Xiaobei's steps were heavy. No matter how he speeds up his pace, there is a limit to the speed of people, the road is far away, the moon is already high in the sky, but Li Xiaobei still doesn't see where the end is.
"I see that I... Maybe it won't make ...... was rescued. Suddenly, Zhong Yueyun said weakly, and his voice was as thin as a mosquito.
"What nonsense!" Looking at Zhong Yueyun's sluggish spirit, Li Xiaobei's eyes couldn't help but reveal fear, and he didn't seem to want Zhong Yueyun to die.
"I'm sure I'll carry you to him!"
The weakened Zhong Yueyun did not answer, and Li Xiaobei clenched his fists.
After walking for a long time, Li Xiaobei's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his whole body fell into weakness, and suddenly, he thought of a news that might make Zhong Yueyun hopeful.
"Zhong Yueyun, in fact, there is a plant fragrance in this world that allows ordinary people to see the soul."
"Is it true what you said?" Zhong Yueyun's voice was a little higher.
Li Xiaobei nodded: "It's just that this plant grows in the far north." β
Zhong Yueyun raised his weak hand and tried to grab Li Xiaobei's sleeve, but fell off before approaching: "Can you... Help me? β
"For the sake of you not leaving me, I will reluctantly help you.
Zhong Yueyun's weak face couldn't help but bloom with a smile, he was obviously a good person, but he had to be mean, it was really childlike.
However, Qing Zhan ...... I can let you see me, I can come back to you... Will you be happy?
The weak laughter echoed in Zhong Yueyun's dim world, it was obviously the same night, but at this moment, she felt dark, dull and melancholy, all quietly hiding.
In the middle of the night, the ruined temple outside the city was as quiet as death, but in Li Xiaobei's eyes, it seemed to be plated with a layer of holy white halo.
Li Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and quickly walked to the temple gate. Zhong Yueyun's situation is urgent.
After a little consideration of the words, Li Xiaobei pushed the door open: "Young Master Qin? β
There is a low table in the temple, on which are stacks of white paper, as well as a few books, an oil lamp, and a large bamboo bucket is placed in the table room, in which are many calligraphy and paintings wrapped in a cylinder. Not far away, on top of the dead grass was a shabby but neat mattress. There was everything in the house, and all kinds of scenes indicated that there was a scholar living here.
However, there was no one.
Li Xiaobei touched the edge of the table, and a thin layer of ash was attached to his fingertips, which indicated that no one had been here for a few days.
β¦β¦
"Hu San, Hu San, is Hu San back?"
In the middle of the night, in the main hall of Hufu, there was a dead silence. In fact, there were many people in the hall, but everyone looked serious and was silent. The oppressive atmosphere was broken by an exclamation.
There was a slight sound of footsteps outside, and everyone didn't pay attention to it, but it was keenly discovered by Mrs. Hu, who was highly concentrated.
Mrs. Hu sat up with a hug and opened her eyes wide, Hu San... It's Hu San!
Since Hu Qi brought back the news that Su Bailing was rescued four days ago, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, who knows, what followed was the bad news that only Hu Qiyi was alive by the secret guards who went to investigate, and Su Bailing was nowhere to be found. Mrs. Hu asked Second Mrs. Liu to spy on Hu Keping's wife Bai Zhi, perhaps because she noticed that she actually used the killer when she was having fun with Hu Keping. Fortunately, Hu Keping has some skills, and someone has already stared at Bai Zhi, Hu Keping was not fatally injured, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. Originally, Mrs. Hu planned to torture Bai Zhi to get clues, but unexpectedly, she committed suicide by taking poison. Now, it's been four days, and there is still no news.
At this time, the door creaked, and a man in black, twenty or thirty years old, walked in, and saw that he knelt in the center of the lobby as soon as he entered the door.
A man on the left immediately stood up and asked anxiously, "How is it, can you find it?" β
The man didn't look at the uncle of the Hu family a few steps away, but just looked at the old lady Hu on the first seat intently, with shame on his face: "Please punish the old lady, the subordinates are not doing well, and they haven't found Miss Biao!" β
"It's been four days... It's been four days...... Will Bai Ling ......," Second Lady Liu said in fear.
"What a poor boy... That's what happened ahead of me... Now it'...... again," Mrs. Li also began to cry.
Old Madam Hu shook her body when she heard this, and the uncle of the Hu family hurriedly stepped forward to support her, turned her head, her eyes were cold, and she scolded: "Shut up!" What nonsense! Bai Lingji has her own natural appearance, she will be fine! β
Uncle Hu helped Mrs. Hu to sit down on the seat, his face was full of distress, these days, the well-maintained Mrs. Hu seems to be several years old, the old lady is affectionate, this is known to everyone, although he is not Mrs. Hu's biological son, but he has a deep relationship with Mrs. Hu, at this moment, looking at the old lady's haggard face, his heart seems to be entangled together, "Mother, you watch your body, Bai Ling is such a good child, it will be fine." Maybe she was rescued by someone, is recuperating, and will be back in a few days, you are in a hurry, how sad should she be? β
