Chapter 62: The Little Black Room of a Lonely Man and a Widow
When Yun Qian took Jiang Pingxuan's carriage back to Yanyu Building, it was already early in the morning.
The moment he got out of the carriage, his pupils quickly constricted. There seemed to be a pool of blood under the dimly lit lantern in the back door. Yun Qian stepped forward quickly and skillfully blocked the sight of Jiang Pingxuan and the others, stood on the pool of suspected bloodstains, turned around and said casually: "Brother Jiang, I'm sorry for you to send it off." It's not too early, so go back and rest. ”
Jiang Pingxuan arched his hand towards Yun Qian, and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Xian, today I wanted to invite you to enjoy the moon and drink all night, but there are many unpleasant things that make you laugh. Another day, I will invite you to talk about it again for my brother. Leave. ”
After Yun Qianmu saw Jiang Pingxuan's carriage leave, he looked left and right to see that there was no one, and leaned over to quickly wipe off the dark red liquid with his sleeve. He brought his sleeve to his nose and sniffed it, it was a unique rust-like smell, blood!
Yun Qian's heart tightened, and he quickly walked into the building after closing the door. Only a faint oil lamp was still lit in the corridor and stairwell, but Yun Qian did not dare to hold the lamp, so he could only move forward quickly and lightly in the dark. His heart was pounding, and the confusion and fear were caused by bouts of nausea.
When he walked to the top of the stairs, suddenly a dark shadow pressed in front of Yun Qian. Almost hit the ground! Yun Qian retreated in a panic, but was held by a cold and soft hand: "It's me." ”
It's Lijiu, Yun Qian let out a long breath after seeing it clearly, and said with a little annoyance: "I'm scared of ghosts!"
"Something happened, be quiet, go to the room and talk about it." Li Jiu held Yun Qian's hand tightly, and dragged him upward.
Yun Qian's heart hung again, but Lijiu was fine after all, and he was not as frightened as he was at the beginning.
The room was not lit with the azure glass lamp as usual, and by the moonlight, Yun Qian could vaguely feel her approaching cheeks, soft snort, and faint fragrance. Li Jiu's hand was still subconsciously clutching himself, he felt that his blood seemed to be hot, and asked a little hurriedly, "What's wrong!?" ”
Suddenly feeling Yun Qian's blazing gaze, he was stunned for a moment, and then shook Yun Qian's hand away in shame and said, "Miss Lang Poppy was brought back by me and Lao Liu." It's like this..."
Yun Qian almost jumped up when he heard Lijiu's first sentence, and then the more he listened, the more frightened he became, and when he heard Loulan and Dieji passing by Lijiu, he finally couldn't help but say: "It's just nonsense!" Do you know how terrible these two people are! “
Li Jiu, who was reprimanded, felt a little warm in her heart at this time, she gently held the back of Yun Qian's hand, and said half-jokingly: "What are you afraid of?" As your master, I'm not a vegetarian either. ”
"Hmph." Yun Qian angrily withdrew his hand.
"Poof, no more trouble. The current situation is that Lao Liu wants to stay up all night to inject true qi for Lang Poppy to continue his life, and they are in the next room. To be on the safe side, you and I can only stay here tonight. Li Jiu said softly.
"I'm going to see that old guy, but don't run out of my true element." Yun Qian said viciously, but in his heart, he thought of the old Taoist aunt who died of exhaustion for Chu Xi's healing.
"Don't go. Lao Liu didn't let me help just now, and it will be bad if you take the liberty of the past now. Li Jiu was very opposed to Yun Qian's approach, and there was a little bit of selfishness in his heart at this time.
In the dark room, the lonely man and the widow sat opposite each other, but at this time, the two of them could not have any other thoughts, and each was worried about the things in their hearts.
"You say, what is the origin of this old Liu? How do you know so many things? In the silence, Yun Qian couldn't help but ask.
"He was always secretive and seemed reluctant to talk about the past. But I'm sure he and I, Dayan, share a deep bond. Anyway, it shouldn't be our enemy, but let's be careful in everything. Li Jiu shook his head, and the swaying hair ribbon was fragrant.
"I just don't think he's had any ill intentions all along." Yun Qian was a little happy, and then said with some solemnity: "This Lang Poppy girl is a person that Jiang Pingxuan and Dieji value very much. Leave her here, if the news leaks out, I'm afraid it's not good. ”
Li Jiu nodded in approval: "Well, if you want to find a way to send her away as soon as possible, I will contact His Highness." It's just that her situation is really bad, I hope Lao Liu can rejuvenate herself. ”
"I believe in Lao Liu." Yun Qian said a little firmly, he had been with Liu Qishou as a teacher and friend for so long, and he respected this fat old man from the bottom of his heart.
A ray of dawn appeared in the east, gradually removing the stars and moon in the silent sky. The arrival of dawn did not make Yun Qian and Lijiu feel relieved, but their thoughts became heavier. It's been almost three hours, and Liu Qishou still hasn't moved at all, but the guys and maids in the building will wake up one after another. It's still closed, and if it's over, I'm afraid it will soon be crowded. The restaurant is really not a good place for Tibetans.
"Although there are not many people coming to this room on weekdays, it is not a forbidden place, and if I suddenly prohibit everyone from coming, I am afraid that it will show my feet. Now what I'm most worried about is that there are other aspects of eyeliner in the building, and what you told me about He Duxiu before shocked me a lot. Li Jiu heard the movement in the hall downstairs, and became more and more worried.
Yun Qian sighed and comforted: "Don't worry too much, I'll go to the entrance of the corridor to guard, someone will come and send him away." ”
Li Jiu shook his head and was about to say something, but suddenly sat up a little nervously, and then there was a knock on the door with a "knock knock".
"It's me. Come over here. Some hoarse and thick voices were Liu Qishou.
Yun Qian and Lijiu hurriedly followed. Liu Qishou was covered in sweat at this time, his sunken eye sockets looked very haggard, and he squeezed out a smile towards Yun Qian.
The messy bed was covered with blood, and the woman lying on it with her eyes closed had a beautiful face that overwhelmed all beings, but at this moment she looked so powerless and fragile. The peerless fairy on the Lingbo Feiyan platform is close to Yun Qian at the moment, but she looks lifeless. Yun Qian and Lang Poppy don't have anything to do with each other, but at the moment there is still a feeling of choking in the throat.
"I've been in a coma. I barely breathed for her. Liu Qishou's eyes were full of pain and despair.
"Maybe two days of rest will get better." Lijiu comforted, but in fact, she didn't believe it herself.
"I hope so." Liu Qishou smiled dismally, and then looked at Li Jiu with some pleading: "Boss, I want you to bother to freshen up for her." I'm a big guy, it's really inconvenient. ”
Li Jiu nodded and said, "Ayaxi, she is also my sister, just leave it to me here." Lao Liu, go and rest. ”
Liu Qishou was no longer polite, and walked out with tired steps, his consumption this night was indeed a little unbearable.
After Liu Qishou left, Yun Qian said in a low voice: "Perhaps, I know that there is someone who can save her." ”
"What!?" Li Jiu stared at Yun Qian in surprise.
