"What's going on?" Qu Xiaoqi looked at Zhou Zhengduan's walking posture, and his heart lifted, "You can't be injured, right?" ”

Zhou Zhengduan's face suddenly turned red, and he said, "You turn around first." ”

Qu Xiaoqi did so, she seemed to hear Zhou Zhengduan's cry of pain, and asked, "Don't you need help?" ”

"No, don't turn around." The voice was a little eager, which somewhat infected Qu Xiaoqi, and she became more and more nervous, so she could only stay where she was and couldn't do anything.

Zhou Zhengduan pulled a small dart from his buttocks, and he really thanked the person who threw the dart for lightening the force on his hand, and the wound was not too deep.

There was a note tied to the dart, and when he opened it, he saw four large words: 'Stay away from her'.

Zhou Zhengduan was a little weak-hearted, his father and mother had already told him that Qu Xiaoqi's husband was not a simple character. He thought that he would be out of his control except for Chaoguo, but he didn't expect that someone would be secretly staring at him.

"Guest officer, do you need hot water?" Hearing that this voice was the shopkeeper that Qu Xiaoqi almost bumped into just now, Zhou Zhengduan's pupils shrank, and said, "No need, bring some four treasures of the study." ”

"Hey, why don't you need it, I still want to take a hot shower!" At this moment, Qu Xiaoqi had already turned around and looked at Zhou Zhengduan, "Where did the things in your hand come from?" ”

Zhou Zhengduan only felt that his cheeks were hot, coughed softly, and said, "Hot water, wait until we finish discussing the matter, you can tell the shopkeeper, otherwise the water will be cold." ”

Seeing that Zhou Zhengduan was unwilling to explain the bloody dart on his hand and the note, Qu Xiaoqi didn't ask much, and suddenly remembered the scar on Meng Yuqing's body, she reminded: "Remember to take medicine." ”

This made Zhou Zhengduan even more at a loss, until the four treasures of the study were sent in.

"The four treasures of the study you want are here, do whatever you want." Qu Xiaoqi was a little tired, yawning and looking at Zhou Zhengduan.

Zhou Zhengduan put the note in his hand to the candle flame and lit it, and then got the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Soon, a large paragraph appeared on the paper and was handed to Qu Xiaoqi.

The content is like this: The shopkeeper knows martial arts, and above me, I am afraid that he will eavesdrop, so I paraphrase it in text.

We went to the country of Qing this time to steal a bead from the queen of the king, this bead has some effects, and the mother is very interested in it, and wants to take it for herself.

Qu Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows, walked to the table and picked up the pen, only then did he remember that his words were really miserable, so he had to point to the beads and say, "How much is it worth?" ”

Zhou Zheng pursed his lips, recalled his mother's words in the letter, and said: "Things are rare, but they are not priceless treasures, and they cannot be priced. ”

"You write down the effect for me and let me think about it myself, it's for you...... No, think about the price. If it really worked for her, she would naturally find a way to trick it into her own hands.

Zhou Zhengduan said honestly: "I don't know, my father didn't say it, I think it's something related to beauty and skin care." ”

He didn't think much about it, he only knew that if he didn't listen to his father, especially his mother, he would have no good fruit to eat in the future.

Beauty and beauty are rare things, and when Qu Xiaoqi was thinking about how much this thing could sell, he was suddenly woken up by reality.

The things stolen from Qingguo are not easy to sell, not to mention, I actually want to rob things from a demon, I am afraid that the mother who saw Zhou Zhengduan before is too kind, and I have forgotten what the identity of that woman is.

Qu Xiaoqi shuddered, and hurriedly expelled what he shouldn't have thought about in his mind.

It's not a valuable item if you think of it, and the king who wants to come to the Qing Kingdom won't chase it to the side of the country in the end.

"What kind of organization is your Demon Cult here?"

Hearing Qu Xiaoqi mention the Demon Sect, Zhou Zhengduan seemed to have thought of something bad, and his face turned pale.

As for being scared like this? Qu Xiaoqi didn't know the bottom of his heart, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, you go back first, I suddenly don't want to know." ”

After Zhou Zheng returned to the room, Qu Xiaoqi poked his head out of the door and was startled by the shopkeeper who suddenly appeared in front of him.

The shopkeeper seemed to be a little flustered, looking like he didn't stand firm, and Qu Xiaoqi was a little suspicious that he was eavesdropping just now.

A little suspicious, he looked at the shopkeeper a few times, and said, "Is there hot water?" By the way, get me something to eat, and farmhouse sauce. The man with me pays the bill, and you can send him another one later, just ask him for the money. ”

"Okay officer."

The shopkeeper hurriedly went downstairs, and after a while, he brought a wooden bucket with half a bucket of cold water in it.

After that, I added hot water twice back and forth, and some simple meals were brought up by the way.

I remember that there are quite a lot of shopkeepers in this inn, why do you let such a weak woman be busy?

Qu Xiaoqi soaked in the hot water, and the whole person relaxed, and the rush during this time really made her suffer.

Although she doesn't stay in the wild every night, the conditions along the way are really limited, especially during the two days when she came to menstruation.

She was already cold, and when the weather turned cold, her menstrual period was painful.

Zhou Zhengduan knows medical skills, but he has no way to do it, so he can only boil some drugs to warm the uterus and pour them into Qu Xiaoqi.

He regretted obeying the wishes of his father and grandfather and brought Qu Xiaoqi over.

Internal force can relieve the pain of menstruation, but it needs to touch the stomach, which is a private part, and it is inconvenient for him.

So I could only watch Qu Xiaoqi struggle in pain on the carriage for nearly five days.

After taking a bath, Qu Xiaoqi got up to eat, and the taste of this farmhouse sauce was indeed the bean paste in her impression.

Sesame paste and sesame oil also serve as flavoring, and it seems that I can buy some on my return trip.

After entering the capital of the Qing country, the price of goods can be said to skyrocket, and you can rent land for a year in an inn for one night.

Seeing that Zhou Zhengduan was spending money like flowing water, and he was not distressed at all, Qu Xiaoqi was a little hated for the rich.

The celebration will not start in ten days, and Zhou Zhengduan specially came to observe the terrain early, after all, the palaces of various countries are not so easy to enter.

Zhou Zhengduan was in the house at this time, looking at the pedestrians around him through the window, his brows furrowed.

The festival is held once every five years, and envoys from all over the world come to participate and bring congratulatory gifts.

At this time, it is also the time when the protection of the Qing country is the strictest, not to mention a big living person, even a carrier pigeon can't fly in.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a knock at the door.

"Who?"

"It's me."

Zhou Zhengduan was stunned, Qu Xiaoqi rarely took the initiative to find himself, and he didn't know what was going on.

"The door is not closed, come in."

Qu Xiaoqi walked in cautiously, with a flattering smile on his face, this trick was used to his grandfather before, but he didn't expect to use it on himself one day.

"I just wanted to ask, can I ...... in advance? That is, I want some money and go out to buy something. Originally, Qu Xiaoqi thought that the price of the capital was too high, so she didn't do the wrong, but she was impressed by the prosperity here in less than two days.

There were so many things she hadn't seen before that she wanted to take home, and there were many craftspeople selling delicate items that she particularly loved.

"I'll go shopping with you, and if you like it, I'll buy it for you."

"......" she won't run again.

"I'll go out and have a look, and maybe I'll be able to find a way to get into the palace from the crowd."

"Oh."

In the past few days, Qu Xiaoqi has become more or less familiar with Zhou Zhengduan, although Zhou Zhengduan's age is older than her body, but she regards Zhou Zhengduan as a younger brother.

There are a total of five streets in the capital, and one of them is full of gambling houses and Fengyue places, which is also the place Qu Xiaoqi wants to go to the most.

She had to go to the gambling house first to try her luck, but she couldn't do it.

When Qu Xiaoqi was wearing a black men's suit, his hair stood up, and he came to this street with Zhou Zhengduan, Zhou Zhengduan wanted to turn around and leave Qu Xiaoqi directly.

"Don't look like I'm bullying you. I'm greedy for money, go to the gambling house to have a look, you need news, go to the Qinglou to have a look. ”

"Qu Xiaoqi!" Zhou Zhengduan was a little annoyed and angry, he felt that he was already very restrained if he didn't hit a woman now.

Qu Xiaoqi's face became serious, and said: "The Qinglou and the inn are the places with the fastest circulation of information, if you are embarrassed, accompany me to the casino, if I win money and am in a good mood, I can accompany you to the Qinglou to have a look." ”

"I accompanied you to the casino because you were a ...... It's not safe to go to the gambling house with a small body, you know? Zhou Zhengduan's face was even more embarrassed.

Qu Xiaoqi didn't care much, and strode directly to the casino, this behavior really looked like a man.

It's just that her appearance is too delicate, and her figure is not open, which attracts many people around her to look at her with strange eyes.

She lowered her voice and said, "What? Haven't you seen a handsome guy? ”

Not to mention, the voice was really rough, and there were some gamblers around me, who found it boring, so they put their eyes back on the casino.

"Great! Big! Big! ”

"Tiny! Open small! ”

"Great! Open big open big open big! ”

There is a lot of noise around, basically like this, and now the most played is dice.

Qu Xiaoqi didn't rush to place a bet, his little hand was turned back, and he looked around at the people in the casino.

Not long after, someone came up and asked, "This is the first time this master has come?" Check it out, what do you want to play? If you don't understand, you can ask me. ”

"Hmm...... I know it's the first time I've been here, can this thing win? ”

"Hey, look at what you said, isn't it all about luck? Whoever is lucky wins. ”

Qu Xiaoqi snorted disdainfully in his heart, if it depends on luck, then what kind of money does the gambling house make.

Qu Xiaoqi took out a piece of gold from his arms, glanced around, and then handed the broken silver he was carrying on his body to Zhou Zhengduan, and said in a low voice: "There are many pickpockets here, you help me take care of it, if it is one or two less, you will compensate me for one or two...... Gold! ”

This is simply blackmail, Zhou Zhengduan's face is even darker, this is obviously because she teased Qu Xiaoqi before, and now she is taking revenge on herself! This woman has such small eyes!
