Chapter 45: Suffering

I really wanted to yell at her and ask her what she was doing all this time.

But I held back.

Since I have decided not to care about this anymore, then I should put my posture in the most appropriate position, and now I just need to do some proper care.

Picking up the phone, Qin Huai opened his mouth first.

"How have you been?"

I tried to make my tone as calm and indifferent as possible, "It's okay, what about you." ”

Qin Huai let out a "hmm" and was silent for a few seconds, "Today I plan to make the previous things clear to you, and I hope you can listen to me well." ”

"Well, you can tell it."

Qin Huai exhaled and said slowly: "That day in the broken building, I said to go and fetch you a basin of water, but after I went out, I met a person. The person directly asked me if I was a Gu person, and I didn't know what the so-called Gu person meant at the time, so I shook my head. ”

"Then he asked me why I didn't dare admit it when I had scales under my ribs. I was scared because he lifted his clothes and I saw scales all over my body. ”

I was a little shocked, "He's the same as you?" ”

"Yes, just like me. He told me that it was not so much a curse as it was that we were suffering from an extremely rare disease. And most importantly, he told me that the disease is contagious. That's why I chose to leave you. ”

What Qin Huai said seemed to be reasonable, but I couldn't agree with it, "In this case, you can tell me, and you don't need to walk away without saying a word." Besides, I call you so much, don't tell me this disease is contagious over the phone. ”

"I know... I know..."Qin Huai's tone was a little lost, "I know that such a reason can't convince you, but I have to do it because he told me that someone is going to kill you." ”

Someone is going to kill me...

I thought about it for a while, Qin Huai may be talking about Qin Huan of the puppet family, after all, we met later.

Thinking of this, Qin Huai continued, "He told me that your family is very ancient, so since your family's bloodline is so far-reaching, then naturally there will be some people who think differently from you. ”

Qin Huai said a little awkwardly, but I probably knew what she wanted to express.

She may be saying that there are some bad people in the Six Evil Ways.

I didn't interrupt her, said "continue" and let her continue.

"He told me that those people have two purposes, the first is to find the so-called Gu people, that is, me. But the second purpose is to kill you. I don't know what kind of enmity they have against you, but I really didn't have a way out, although those people are studying ancient magic arts, it doesn't mean that they are primitives, and they even use some technology, such as tracking my phone. ”

I involuntarily tapped my fingers on the table, I admit that there is some truth in what Qin Huai said, but most of them are still a bit mysterious.

First of all, what are you killing me for?

Besides, if their purpose was really to kill me, then I had lived for more than 20 years, why would they have gone earlier?

It hasn't appeared for so long, so why wait until this time?

"Qin Huai, I believe you didn't lie to me, but I also believe that this is a clumsy lie. Maybe you didn't make it up, but it's definitely a lie. ”

Qin Huai said softly "um" on the phone again, and then said: "I have imagined today's situation, and I also know that you will no longer believe me if you say anything, but I just want to tell you that I did not lie to you, I did not harm you, and it will not change in the future." ”

I threw away the cigarette butt and stomped it hard with my foot, "Okay, let's talk about something else." How are you now? Where are the people, and what are the plans for the future? ”

"I quit my job and plan to follow that man to find a cure for my illness, but I must remind you that there is really someone who wants to kill you, and I hope you will be careful if you take my words seriously, and don't let anything happen."

I spat out a puff of cigarette, "Who is that person, is he a descendant of the credit family?" ”

Qin Huai paused very subtly, and then denied my question, "No, he is just an ordinary person." The person who, like me, did not accumulate virtue and became a Gu person. ”

"Okay, so tell me where you're going next, you don't even have a plan, do you?"

Qin Huai said: "There is a plan, but I can't tell you. Please forgive me, I can only assure you that I have no bad intentions towards you. ”

I have to say that we had only been talking for a few minutes before my heart was completely softened.

Qin Huai's every sentence was almost telling me her helplessness at the beginning, as well as her debt to me, as well as her concern and advice to me.

As a man, even if Qin Huai's mouth is full of lies today, I shouldn't investigate it too deeply.

"Qin Huai, I don't know what you're looking for. But I know there's one thing you've probably heard, and that's the soft gold spine. ”

After listening to my words, Qin Huai directly said "ah".

"I can even tell you that I need this thing very much right now." So since our purpose is the same, it is better to gather together, so that the chances of finding it will definitely be greater. ”

Qin Huai was silent, and I generously gave her a few seconds to think.

Some time ago, I didn't have the desire to speak, so I continued, "I'll see you in Yunnan in five days." ”

After speaking, I held my breath, for fear that I would miss any of Qin Huai's voice on the phone, even if it was an extremely small sigh.

Because I'm gambling, I'm using the word "Yunnan" to block Qin Huai's friendship with me.

She was silent for a long, long time, for five minutes.

For five minutes, the two of us held the phone silently, and only the slight breath of the other person was in our ears.

After a long time, Qin Huai finally chose to speak.

She took a deep breath and slowly spit it out again, just whispering, "Okay..."

Then we hung up, and I had a target for my next trip, which was Yunnan.

When I was in the funeral hall before, Yan Feitang said that the soft golden spine seemed to be in Yunnan, and when I saw that she was not sure, I didn't think much about the correctness of her words.

But after this phone call, I knew that Qin Huai's target was actually a soft gold spine, and the purpose of her next trip was precisely in Yunnan.

It can't be that Qin Huai and Yan Feitang both remembered it wrongly, and they just made a mistake to the same address.

This is unrealistic.

I called Huacheng directly and told him that I was going to leave for Kunming in two days, and the kid actually told me that he couldn't come for something temporary, and that he would come to me when he was free.

This is an unreliable thing, but I don't have the phone number of Zhong Yi and Yan Feitang.

So, this trip has to run with Ah Jin again.
