Chapter 4: Mustard
Jiang Qihan!
Qi Niang stared at the man in front of her with wide eyes in disbelief, but saw that the man had a spring breeze on his face, his expression was open, and his smile was as warm as the rising sun.
There were crowds of people on the street, Qi Niang clenched her fist in her sleeve, her heart was turbulent, and now was not the time to do it. Even if she was able to kill this person without showing a trace, there were so many pedestrians on the road, and I didn't know if there were a few people from Hanjiang Pavilion, and whether there would be other enemies. This man must have had nothing to fear when he stood in front of her so blatantly. Qi Niang's heart has mixed tastes. He Bian Che has been hiding for a few years, and Jiang Qihan, who has never appeared in front of Qianjilou, why does he appear here in public now, and confess his name in front of Qi Niang, this man, really doesn't know that he is in front of the enemy?
The delicate eyebrows were slightly cold, Qi Niang sneered without temperature, and said: "It turned out to be the famous Hanjiang Pavilion Jiang Pavilion Master, is the Jiang Pavilion Master really confused or fake, it was just a few days ago that the matter of Qianji Tower was broken, don't you know who I am?" ”
Jiang Qihan smiled warmly, and said with his eyes: "Speaking of which, it is true that we did some tricks to make Qianjilou's mission fail, but that Lei Dai is a friend of Uncle Xia, and General Yeluxin is also a distinguished guest of the imperial court, and they are in danger, so I can't stand idly by." ”
"You Hanjiang Pavilion are really nosy, there are a lot of people in the rivers and lakes who want to buy Lei Dai's life, why are you here to hinder us?" Qi Niang said sharply.
"Qianjilou does the business of killing people, it has been the target of everyone, not only the imperial court regards it as an enemy, but the major sects are also competing to get rid of it, Hanjiang Pavilion takes the practice of medicine to save people as its own responsibility, and must not allow Qianjilou to do murderous things." Jiang Qihan spoke eloquently, not afraid of the killing intent in Qi Niang's eyes, and stared at her intently.
"Oh? The master of Jiang Pavilion really cares about the world, and Qi Niang admires it. Since you and I are destined not to be on the same path, we will definitely face each other with swords when we meet in the future, and the Jiang Pavilion Lord will tell me my name today, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble? My landlord wants to kill you in his dreams. "I haven't seen Jiang Qihan before, it's not easy to kill him, but now that he has sent it to the door himself, it's different.
However, Jiang Qihan seemed to be holding a big bargaining chip, smiling and shaking his head, "I didn't expect Bian Che to look up to it so much, and I was really panicked in it." But it's not an easy task to kill. ”
Qi Niang glanced at him with a strange expression, and then turned to leave. Jiang Qihan's soft voice sounded behind him: "I heard Ba Shi say that the old white Toyota seniors that the girl is looking for will come back in four days." ”
Qi Niang was slightly stunned, turned around and looked, Jiang Qihan had already walked away. After glancing left and right to make sure that no one noticed her, Qi Niang took a step and followed Jiang Qihan from a distance. Hanjiang Pavilion is not in the capital, at this time, where will Jiang Qihan live? You must tell Bian Che about this.
The sky is getting dark, the lights in the downtown are turning on one after another, Qi Niang has been with Jiang Qihan for most of the day, seeing that he first went to the hospital, and then went everywhere, all day long, he finally waited until he was free, and the moon was like a hook. Thinking that Jiang Qihan didn't see her, she let her follow all the way, but when Qi Niang couldn't see the cyan figure anymore, she was annoyed to find that Jiang Qihan deliberately let her follow. People come and go in the market, the river is endless, Qi Niang lost someone for the first time, she felt that she was put together, she was a little unwilling, she has always thrown off the enemy, and there has never been a time when people have slipped away from under their noses like now. Jiang Qihan, she underestimated him.
The injury on her back was not healed, and she was tired and tired when she was touched. Qi Niang turned around and went back depressedly, bought cakes to fill her stomach on the way back, and went straight to the bedroom when she returned to the head rudder of Qianjilou.
"Qi Niang." Ye Jiu didn't know when he had come back, and he seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time.
Qi Niang turned around and saw Ye Jiu hurriedly walking forward, looking her up and down with worried eyes, "Qi Niang, are you okay?" ”
Everyone knows what a terrifying place the nine machines are in the Thousand Machines Building, and the people who come out of it will not have a complete place on their bodies, and those who have been severely punished, and some of them have even come out as cripples. A person like Qi Niang who can still walk around after being punished is already extremely light. It seems that Bian Che didn't plan to be heavy on Qi Niang, maybe only Qi Niang has such a special case.
"It's all right, it's just whipping, and no other punishment is used." At this point, Qi Niang is very grateful to Bian Che for his extrajudicial kindness, otherwise, she would not be able to find her brother's whereabouts.
Ye Jiu relaxed slightly, but raised his eyebrows again and said, "The landlord came back during the day and was looking for you." Where have you been all day? The landlord didn't seem to be very happy. ”
Qi Niang frowned slightly. "Go out and breathe, by the way, I see Jiang Qi cold." Qi Niang walked to Bian Che's house under Ye Jiu's surprise, and it just so happened that she also had something to report.
From afar, I saw Bian Che standing in the attic dressed in white, his lonely and indifferent figure seemed to merge with the cold moonlight, no, this person was colder than the cold glow of the moonlight. looked at Qi Niang's gaze downstairs, and he was also rejected thousands of miles away. When Qi Niang walked to the bottom of the stairs, Bian Che had already entered the house.
"Landlord." Qi Niang stared at the man sitting on the Taishi chair in front of her, her sword eyebrows were straight, the corners of her eyes were sharp, and her thin lips were pursed into a straight line. Bian Che was indeed angry.
"I'm afraid this punishment is too light for Qi Niang, won't you be able to sit still in a few days, where did you go?" Bian Che stared at her with a smile, but there was no smile in his eagle-sharp eyes.
Whenever Bian Che is unhappy, he will show such a smile, moody, and it is very appropriate to describe Bian Che. Qi Niang didn't understand what kind of anger Bian Che was angry with this time. And Bian Che himself didn't understand why he came back in a hurry, eager to see how she was punished, but he didn't see her for a day.
Of course, Qi Niang wouldn't tell Bian Che about going to find her brother, but just said that she went out to buy something and saw Jiang Qihan.
thought that Bian Che would ask Jiang Qihan about it, so he prevaricated, but he didn't expect Bian Che to ask: "What did you buy?" ”
Qi Niang was slightly surprised, then took out a hairpin, and said seriously: "I bought this." ”
Bian Che glanced at the hairpin in Qi Niang's hand, it was just a cheap, emerald green bead flower, which was extremely simple, and it was worth her to go out for a special trip. Bian Che withdrew his gaze, then threw a small porcelain bottle to Qi Niang, and said indifferently: "This is wound medicine, take it and use it." ”
Qi Niang took it in a daze, a little puzzled. Bian Che is looking for her, is this just for her?
Bian Che said again: "I already know about Jiang Qihan, you don't have to worry about it anymore." This month, you don't have to take on any more tasks. ”
Qi Niang watched the ice and snow on his face gradually melt, and looked at the medicine bottle in his hand, and couldn't help but show a smile, "The landlord has forgiven Qi Niang?" ”
Bian Che snorted coldly, "This is for the sake of your past merits, to give you a warning, next time if you eat inside and outside again, I will let the people of Jiuzhang Ji sprinkle salt on the whip, so that you will be in pain." While saying threatening words, the corners of Bian Che's mouth hooked up with a wicked sneer. Before you know it, the qi has completely disappeared.
"Landlord, why were you angry just now? Is it because Qi Niang came back too late? "In the entire Thousand Machine Building, only Qi Niang dared to guess his mind like this.
Bian Che sneered, "I'm afraid that you, the person with your elbow turned outward, will leak the secrets of the Thousand Machine Building, and ruin my big business." ”
"Qi Niang doesn't dare, if the landlord is not at ease, you can give Qi Niang a secret black pill, so that Qi Niang will not make a mistake." Qi Niang's insincere words to Bian Che were not undoubted, and said solemnly.
The secret black pill she said is a poison used by Qianjilou to prevent the rebellion of his subordinates, once anyone joins Qianjilou, Bian Che will give one to each person, and the toxicity will attack at the end of each month, so you have to go back to Qianjilou to get the antidote, otherwise the poison will erode people's internal organs, although it is not fatal, but its pain is worse than death. Qi Niang once saw a person cut off his meridians because he couldn't bear the pain without an antidote, and Bian Che watched coldly, holding a life-saving antidote in his hand. He was like a Shura from hell, telling everyone that this was the end of betraying him. The person who betrayed him has always had only two ways, either the poison of the black pill cannot be solved, or he is thrown into the nine machines and tortured, no matter which one he is, it is a dead end. is such a ruthless person, but he only didn't let Qi Niang take that medicine.
"You want to take Hei Dan so much, because there are too many antidotes in Qianjilou, right?" Bian Che supported his head with one hand, and his index finger wearing a jasper wrench tapped the tabletop one by one, looking at Qi Niang with an inquiring gaze, "I didn't let you eat it, because I thought you didn't dare to betray me, but it seems that I trust you too much, which makes you a little carried away." ”
Qi Niang hurriedly lowered her head, "The subordinates don't dare." ”
Bian Che glanced at her, "It's better not to dare." I'm going to go to Windy City with Ye Jiu these days, you and Eleven will stay in Qianji Tower, Ye Luxin is still in the capital, I've let Eleven keep an eye on it, don't make any more mistakes. ”
Qi Niang's eyes were dim, her eyes were lowered, and when she raised her head, she saw Bian Che staring straight at her with a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
Qi Niang stood up straight, "What did the landlord do when he suddenly went to Windy City?" But what's the matter? ”
"Lei Dai will leave for Windy City tomorrow, and Jiang Qihan will accompany him, this is a good opportunity to do it."
"Okay, I see, I'll stay."
Bian Che has always taken Qi Niang with him, he once said that Ye Jiu and Ye Sixteen are his right-hand men, and Qi Niang is a knife on his body, and there is no killer who does not have a knife on him. And this time, Bian Che seems to be intentionally letting Qi Niang stay. Perhaps because of what happened last time, Bian Che no longer trusts Qi Niang so much, which makes Qi Niang a little worried. On the contrary, Ye Jiu was very happy.
He said with a relieved expression: "Your injuries are not healed, fortunately the landlord did not let you go with you." These days, Qi Niang should have a good rest. ”
Ye Jiu is not good at words, but he will say a few more words in front of Qi Niang, Ye Jiu's concern for Qi Niang will never have any concealment, he is like a cold-faced and enthusiastic big boy, in the cold-blooded and ruthless assassination career, he brings the warmth of Qi Niang's family. Sometimes Qi Niang would think that if Ye Jiu was her younger brother, then there would not be so many years of hopeless hard searching.
Qi Niang suddenly wanted to see that familiar face again, and Bian Che said that Yeluxin was still in the capital, so Yeluya should also be there. Listening to Eleven, Ye Luxin is now temporarily living in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is difficult to start, so he can only wait for the opportunity. In addition, Bian Che had a grudge against his last move, and before leaving the capital, he told Qi Niang not to interfere in anything this month, that is to say, let Ye Shiyi complete the task of assassinating Ye Lu Xin, Qi Niang estimated that it would be difficult to see Ye Lu Ya again. However, Qi Niang couldn't sit back and wait any longer, so she took the risk of angering Bian Che again, and sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion at night.
With the experience of the previous car last time, the Prime Minister's Mansion was heavily guarded, Qi Niang hid her figure, caught a little maid in the corner of the guest room, and asked Ye Luya directly where she lived. The sharp knife was pressed against her throat, and the maid was so frightened that she could not speak, and her hand trembled and pointed to a courtyard.
"Which one?" Qi Niang lowered her voice.
"...... The third room. ”
Qi Niang knocked her unconscious with a palm knife, and then put the maid on the ground, and then went to the courtyard. Walking to the third room, she shot the note she had prepared through the crack in the door with a canister, and then left quietly.
In the dark night, one hand took the bamboo tube off the pillar, and when he opened the door again, there was no one outside the door.
