After feeling the breath of that person, Yue Qianlong immediately ran towards the south of the city, no, there is a smell of blood around here! Could it be that Qi Yan has encountered an accident? However, after stopping his steps, Yue Qianlong's face turned white. There were several corpses around her, and it looked like they had just died.

"Master," Yue Qianlong looked at the person who was standing not far in front of him, he had his back to him, and a blood-stained arrow in his hand, "You killed these people?"

Qi Yan turned around slightly, and even his face was stained with blood.

"Why did you kill them!"

"Why?"

"They're all ordinary people. ”

"But they moved to kill and killed them," Qi Yan dropped the feather in his hand, his eyes revealing a hint of danger, "If I didn't kill them, I wouldn't be standing here." It's not that I want to kill them, it's that they want to die!"

Yue Qianlong couldn't refute it, these people couldn't drive it away during the day, and they even burned the entire forest at night. And judging from the situation at the scene, Qi Yan was ambushed.

"Chitaki, don't say it, Qi Yan is injured. ”

After Su Jue reminded Yue Qianlong, he noticed the blood stains on Qi Yan's waist and back, it turned out that those blood stains did not come from others, but from himself.

"Heal him first," Su Jue took the lead in helping Qi Yan, but he didn't expect Su Jue's hand to fall into his arms as soon as he touched the man, "Qianlong, he fainted." ”

The woman sighed, so she had to go up and probe Qi Yan's situation, judging from the pulse, the injury was a little serious, and they had to find a safe place to hide. But Yue Qianlong and Su Jue are not familiar with Mengchi Town at all, where should they look?

"Now that people have died, they will definitely look for us even more viciously, and it is not okay to sleep in the wilderness. ”

"You mean?"

"Let's find a house in the distance. ”

Su Jue meant to coerce others? After agreeing a few times, Yue Qianlong also nodded, they found a dilapidated house in the corner of the city, and after buttoning the door, there was no response, Su Jue simply kicked the door and broke in.

Is there anyone in this house? Yue Qianlong's gaze stopped at a small figure in the corner, it was a gray-haired child, he was clasping his hands around his knees, and his eyes were wide open. I don't know if it was because of the cold or fear, his whole body was shivering.

"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you," Yue Qianlong saw that he did not resist, so he took a few steps closer and said, "A friend of mine is injured, he really needs to rest now, can you help us?" ”

Yue Qianlong took out some silver from his arms, but the child was still cowering in the corner of the wall, not moving.

"Why? You don't want it? These are silver, you can buy good food. ”

The child swallowed, and his eyes suddenly turned to the water bladder on Yue Qianlong's waist.

"You want this?"

The child nodded, and Yue Qianlong had just untied the water bladder and was snatched away by the child like a monkey. The man opened the stopper, and drank all the water in three or two clicks.

Yue Qianlong squatted down, tried to pat his head, and said, "Are you thirsty?"

The child still nodded.

"This one is for you too. ”

The child looked at the half of the wheat cake in Yue Qianlong's hand, and his eyes were a little puzzled, but he finally took it and ate it in small bites.

Seeing that he finished eating, Yue Qianlong smiled and said, "How is it? We're not bad people, right?" ”

Only then did the child move out of the corner, pat the couch beside him, and motioned for Su Jue to put the injured Qi Yan up.

"Thank you. ”

Yue Qianlong randomly checked Qi Yan's wounds, he was hit by three arrows, and the arrows were still in it and not pulled out. Fortunately, the wound medicine she brought from Ning Wang's Mansion was not left behind, this hemostatic effect is very good, and it should be easy to deal with Qi Yan's injury.

"Kid, what's your name?"

"Six. ”

"Six?" How do you use numbers as your name? Yue Qianlong raised his eyes, "Then how about I call you Xiaoliu?"

The child nodded again.

"Can you let us stay here for a few days? And don't tell anyone about us. ”

The child rolled his eyes and nodded again.

"By the way, do you live alone?"

"Alone. ”

"What about your parents and family?"

The child's eyes darkened, and he obviously didn't want to mention it.

"You're from outside?"

"We ......," Yue Qianlong nodded despite hesitation.

"You are here, I won't say it, don't worry. ”

Hearing this, Yue Qianlong finally breathed a sigh of relief, she could prepare to draw the arrow.

"I'll pull it out. ”

"It's okay, I know how to pull it out. ”

Su Jue listened and insisted: "You come to see this child, I'll pull it out." ”

I really couldn't twist this person, so Yue Qianlong had to sit with this child.

Su Jue pulled out the dagger at his waist, and after cutting through Qi Yan's clothes, he tore open his robe. It seemed to be still very deep, and the arrow was completely sunk into the skin, at least nearly three inches in. And Su Jue noticed before that the arrows here have been specially improved, and there are thin hook thorns attached to the arrow body, once inserted into the body, it will tightly hook the flesh and blood, and it is indeed a very risky thing to pull out.

Looking at the solemn expression on Su Jue's face, Yue Qianlong prompted: "This arrow is very deep, you better loosen the wound first." ”

"Loose?"

"You don't have to worry, Master can hold back. ”

After cleaning up the blood stain on the wound a little, Su Jue used the dagger to neatly cut the wound on both sides. Seeing that the unconscious man was not half abnormal, Su Jue tried to hold the handle of the arrow with his hand and pull it out. However, after exerting a little strength, Qi Yan tensed his whole body with shortness of breath.

"Master, Master......" the man began to whisper, "Master, it hurts...... Ah Yan, I feel pain. ”

Su Jue didn't want to speak, but Qi Yan, who was unconscious, stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm.

"Master, I miss you, I miss you, why don't you let me find you, why...... Why is that?"

"Bear with me. ”

"Master, where are you?" Master, Master......

Su Jue's heart moved, and he actually shouted, "Ah Yan." ”

"Master, Master?" Although the man's eyes were closed, his body trembled, and he was uneasy, "You're back?"

"Hmm. ”

"You, are you going to leave?"

"No," Su Jue shook Qi Yan's hand in response, and said with rare warmth: "From now on, I will only stay by Ah Yan's side, and I will never go anywhere else." ”

"Master?" the man was short of breath, tears were faintly oozing from the corners of his eyes, and he whispered, "I let the peach forest you like keep it open, and I finally ...... Finally planted a peach blossom that will never wither, I just want you to take a good look at it again. Even if you were to burn it this time, you wouldn't be able to. ”

Yue Qianlong suddenly remembered the scene she saw in the streamer path that night, because of the goose that Qi Yan planted when she was a child, the phoenix was also able to reproduce it in front of her eyes in the form of an afterimage. The man was slender, and between his eyebrows was not so much a pure saint as a dull man who didn't know the five flavors and emotions of the world. The man with his black hair and the elegance of his birth not only burned down the peach forest planted by Qi Yan with a wave of his sleeves, but also stood in front of the young child, seriously asking him what it was like to be sad, and asking him what it meant to be disappointed and angry. At that time, Yue Qianlong only felt that the person was very much like a statue and clay puppet in the temple for people to worship, but in the end, Huang Xuan actually said that as long as Qi Yan planted a peach forest that would never wither, he would stay by his side and never leave. The peach forest outside Jingxuan Pavilion is still the same every year, but the phoenix has never appeared, and in the end, he lost his words.

"Master......"

Seeing that the figure was about to wake up, Su Jue immediately moved.

"Ahh

Su Jue hurriedly pressed the wound that he had begun to bleed, and after a little cleaning, he applied the prepared herbs to the wound.

At this time, Qi Yan also sobered up, and after thinking silently for a while, he said weakly: "Thank you...... Thank you ......."

The sharp pain in the injury made Qi Yan sober up a little, and he looked at the child next to Yue Qianlong and said vigilantly: "Who is he?"

"He's Little Six, a friend we just met, and he helped us hide here. ”

Xiao Liu? Qi Yan couldn't help but be stunned, there was still someone in Mengchi Town who would help him, unless this kid didn't know where he came from.

At this time, Su Jue instructed: "Qianlong, you go and prepare water and clean gauze." ”

Shimizu Gauze Koshikotaki shrugged his shoulders and asked, "Do you think there are these things here?"

By the way, the boy was very thirsty when he snatched the water bladder, but when he gave him the wheat cake, his reaction was calm. Su Jue couldn't help but think, could it be that Mengchi Town was short of water?

"Little Liu, where do you get water here, is there a water source nearby?"

The child shook his head.

"Nothing?"

"This is the south of the city, and the well water in the south of the city has long been gone. ”

By the way, judging from the direction, the place where they were attacked should be in the east of the city, but there is abundant grass there, and it does not look like there is a shortage of water at all.

"Can't you go to the east of the city to get water?"

The child shook his head again, "They won't let me pass." ”

"Won't let you pass, why?"

"There is no longer enough water in the east of the city to drink, and they will not give it to others. ”

Yue Qianlong took a step closer and asked, "Has your town been short of water for a long time?"

"Ever since I was born, I've heard that the town has been closed by wind and sand and has been running out of water. ”

Yue Qianlong swept towards Qi Yan at once, and it had something to do with the sandstorm?

"A lot of people in the town are already dying of thirst, and if it weren't for my father, I would have died of thirst last month. ”

"Master, do you know about this?"

Qi Yan shook his head, "I don't know. ”

The child whispered, "If you stay here, you will die of thirst for only a few days, and besides, he is a sick person, and he needs water to clean his wounds." ”

That's right, it looks like they have to go to the east of the city to get water.

"Little Liu, do you know where the water source in the east of the city is?"

The child shook his head again, "I have never been to the east of the city, but I heard from everyone that there is water in a small river in front of the Nie Family Sect Temple. ”

The river, but unfortunately they slept in the mountains and forests when they entered the city, and they did not see the river except for some occasional streams.

"Then in which direction is the Nie Family Sect Temple?"

The child just blinked helplessly.

There are no clues, it's really difficult now, the east of the city is so big, it's impossible for them to turn it over, not to mention that those people still have murderous intentions towards them, Yue Qianlong doesn't want to conflict with them anymore.
