Chapter 11: Danger Follows
Yuqiu brought a piece of news, which was told by the diners of Jintailou that an old divine doctor came to Ximiao Street in the west of the city, specializing in treating stubborn and old diseases, and she asked Ye Jin to take Ye's father to take a look, but Qi Han disagreed.
"The area around Ximiao Street is very desolate, it's better not to go, and eighty percent of this kind of Jianghu Lang is a liar, otherwise with this medical skill, it is not good to open a medical hall, and you can use it to travel around!"
Yuqiu disagreed: "Open a medical hall to benefit one party, travel all over the world to benefit the world, you don't understand, doctors are benevolent, they want to help more people, of course they have to go all over the world!" ”
"You women are too naïve......"
"What is too naïve, if it is a lie, you will know, if it is true, maybe you can cure Miss Ye's hair!"
These two people don't know when they have passed the transition period of mutual courtesy, and they have started the mode of mutual hatred, seeing that the two of them are about to fight again, Ye Jin hurriedly stopped them.
"Okay, okay, don't quarrel with the two of you, even if there is only a little hope, I have to go and see, I will hire a carriage to go, I will come back if the situation is not right, at most I will be cheated of some money, it's okay, you two take care of the house, I'll take my dad to see."
Ximiao Street is in the western suburbs of Qingyang City, it is indeed desolate, the voices outside the carriage gradually became smaller, and the more they walked, the quieter they became, Ye Jin lifted the curtain and looked at it, but found that something was wrong, although she didn't come to Ximiao Street often, she still knew the road, but at this moment it was obviously a road in front of her that she had never walked.
"Stop, go back, I'm not going."
When the coachman heard this, not only did he not stop, but instead flicked his whip and accelerated forward, Ye Jin's heart sank, knowing that he had been plotted again, he took out a dagger from his arms, put it on the coachman's neck, and coldly ordered: "Stop, otherwise I will kill you." ”
Suddenly, the back of his neck sank, the dagger fell to the ground, and Ye Jin's whole person suddenly fell into darkness.
I don't know how long later, when she woke up, she found that her hands and feet were tied, lying in a strange room, surrounded by some idle tables and chairs, full of dust, and cobwebs on the gray wall.
Ye Jin moved her hands and feet, and found that the rope was not tightly tied, it seemed that the other party was sure that she couldn't run away, she struggled to tie her hands behind her back, passed through the front of her feet, bit the knot with her teeth, loosened the tie for herself, came to Daddy Ye and probed his nose, saw that he was just unconscious, put down his mind and got up and walked to the door, pushed hard, did not move, and there was no response after a few beats, so he no longer wasted his efforts, calmly walked around the room, and found that there was an inner room, However, the door was blocked by a few broken tables and chairs, and the light was dim, so it was not easy to find.
Ye Jin cleaned up the clutter at the door, slowly pushed the door open, and with a soft sound, the darkness in the room hit, and she couldn't see anything in front of her, only the dust in the air was so choked that she couldn't help coughing.
Ye Jin flipped up and down for a long time, and finally found half a broken candle and a semi-damp fire fold in the corner, the dim candle flame was lit, the light was dimmed, and he walked into the inner room with the candle flame, compared to the mess outside, the inner room was much cleaner, although it was also dusty, cobwebs were messy, the tables and chairs were displayed in an orderly manner, a bed with a veil on the right, a dresser in front of the tent, an open box of rouge on the table, which had been covered with dust and could not see the primary color, and in the dilapidated bronze mirror, I don't know who had witnessed Zhu Yan Fanghua.
But this whole inner room, except for this door to the outer room, there is not even a window, seeing that the sky outside is gradually darkening, and the candle flame in the hand is about to burn out, the most indispensable thing at this moment is the light source, Ye Jin hurriedly looked around, but was attracted by a painting hanging on the wall, the woman on the painting, there is a familiar face, she took the painting down, the sleeves gently wiped off the dust and cobwebs on the painting, and a woman with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes on the yellowed picture scroll gradually revealed, only to see her hair like a cloud, a few strands of green silk hanging down on the sideburns, lined with skin like cream, although the woman's facial features are not beautiful, but better than soft and beautiful, there is a faint smile in the corner of the eyes, shy and introverted, after the whole painting is wiped clean, the woman's weak and slender figure is also exposed, holding a jade flute in her hand, the tail end of the tassel is lightly falling, hanging on the waist of Yingying's hand, Luo skirt hangs to the ground, and the skirt is lightly curled.
Ye Jin rolled the scroll back carefully, put it properly, held the candle in the room to check carefully, in addition to the choking dust, there was a faint damp and musty smell in the inner room, she followed the musty smell to the front of the tent, the ghost made the god to the ground, she opened the layers of warm tents, at a glance, instantly frightened almost scattered, only to see a pair of white bones lying in the dim candlelight!
She screamed in horror, the candle in her hand fell to the ground, the candle flame was suddenly extinguished, the room fell into darkness and stillness, fear enveloped her, all the calmness and composure disappeared in an instant, she couldn't restrain the trembling of her whole body, her legs fell to the ground, and she crawled out of the inner room, and in a panic found a corner against her back and curled up into a ball and hugged herself tightly, burying her head in her knees and trembling.
After trembling for a long time, Ye Jin finally calmed down again, the light cast by the window outside was getting darker and darker, and it seemed that it was about to get dark, so she decided to find a way to leave this ghost place first. When she raised her head, she suddenly found that there were some dots of light on the dark roof, and a thought came to her mind.
Ye Jin moved all the tables, chairs and stools in the house, all of them were put together, and built a human-shaped ladder, before the room was completely dark, she finally built the ladder and climbed up the beam smoothly, she stood tremblingly on the beam, stretched out her hand and touched it carefully, and sure enough, she touched the tiles. What she saw just now was the light spots on the roof tiles that had fallen off and shattered. They tied her up and locked her up, sealed the doors and windows, but leaked through the roof that had fallen into disrepair.
Ye Jin took off a few tiles with difficulty, and she saw the sky where night was approaching, and the stars were far away. Her eyes were sour, and a fear of the rest of her life came to her heart. At last, she emerged from the roof, sat on the eaves and hugged her knees tightly, silently staring at the dark and quiet opening.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind him, Ye Jin turned his head in a panic, a black figure stood on the ridge of the roof, the night wind raised his black robe, he had a smile on his face, but there was a deep uneasiness in his eyes, he was apologizing: "I'm sorry, I'm late again." ”
"You're here...... My dad is still inside......" Ye Jin staggered up, his feet were weak, and he almost fell through the hole again.
"I know, I'm going to order someone to get him out." Mingzi Su quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed Ye Jin and took her into his arms, but he stopped halfway in a negative anger and let go of his hand.
"You ......" Ye Jin's voice unconsciously brought a crying tone.
As soon as she cried, Ming Zisu's little anger disappeared immediately, she was not a fragile person, she raised Ye Xuan alone, her temperament was a little more tenacious, and now she has to be strong to support a family, the fragility and softness at the moment made his heart feel so distressed, he raised his hand and stroked her neck, rubbed her fingertips and pressed her head into his chest, carefully encircling her thin body.
"You now know how dangerous it is to stay in Qingyang City."
He breathed a sigh of relief slowly, and his tone was as light as coaxing a child: "Cry." ”
A suppressed cry came from his chest, and after a while, a large piece of his chest was wet, and after a long time, the suppressed cry turned into intermittent sobbing, and gradually stopped, turning into an even breathing sound, Mingzi Su A helpless and doting smile appeared on his face, tightened his arms, and steadily hugged the soft body in his arms: "I actually fell asleep......"
He looked down, and sure enough, the person in his arms had fallen asleep tiredly, but his sleeping face was not stable and quiet, the dust on his face was brushed out by tears, his eyebrows were frowning, and there was still a scar on his neck from the last burn, although it was much lighter, but no matter how he looked at it, he looked embarrassed and helpless.
Ming Zisu lowered his head and found a place to sit down, lit Ye Jin's sleeping hole, gently stroked the mist between her eyebrows, took her into the robe and hugged her quietly, her hands were sore, and she was reluctant to move, until the sky was about to dawn, and she was quietly sent back.
