Text Chapter 178 But the love is deep and shallow
Xiao He held on to the door frame with his hand, and when he turned to leave, he faintly heard a soft sigh in the hall behind him, as if he was knocking on her heart. couldn't help but look back and see Mu Churan bowing her head silently, sitting alone, which made her a little unbearable or reluctant for a moment, but her footsteps never stopped.
It was her remnants of reason that carried her away, and the picture faded out of view.
There was no one to stop her all the way, and she left the palace by herself.
I went back to Xiao Mansion first, briefly explained a few words, and then rode out on horseback, and when I was sure that no one was following behind me, I went around to Xishi. Early in the morning, the iron shop had just opened, and she rushed in. The man in last night was very surprised when he saw Xiao He turn back again, "He is already gone!" ”
Xiao He was stunned for a moment, "When?" ”
"This morning, as soon as the day dawned, I went with your guard." The man rubbed his hands together with a straight face.
Xiao He had already left the store, but he thought about it, the city gate was not open at dawn, and the guards did not retreat, where could they go. Han Xia is not a reckless person, and he will never act rashly. But the owner of this iron shop is a little suspicious, could it be that he tricked them out?
But since Mu Churan has withdrawn the pursuit, no one in this world should be able to stop him, unless someone from Qinglong Hall wants to kill him.
Xiao He got back on the horse and decided to try his luck at Murong's place.
As soon as Xiao He left, Xiao Shi came down from the second floor of the iron shop, his body had just recovered some vitality, and he could barely walk.
The ghost hand supported him at the top of the stairs, and said with a wry smile, "Looking at you like this, I really believe it, there is indeed retribution in this world!" Don't worry, I will be worse than you in the future! Xiao Shi smiled indifferently, "No, you will definitely be able to enjoy your old age in peace, full of children and grandchildren, if I have any blessings left, I will leave it all to you!" ”
When he went down the last step, he almost stepped on the air, and when the ghost hand saw this, he couldn't help but worry, "What? Can't see it anymore? ”
"Well, I'm completely blind in my left eye. I can barely see some light in my right eye. He replied easily, as if chatting about some homely gossip, and added, "The one upstairs, help me return to the Xiao Mansion in two hours, and let him sleep a little longer." ”
"Alright, don't worry." The ghost hand sent him to the carriage, his heart was bitter, and he still had a reluctant smile on his face, "Okay." ”
"No." They shook hands one last time, clinked their fists, and said goodbye for eternity.
The carriage had only been gone for a while, and Xiao He rode the horse back.
At the door, the ghost hand saw Xiao He Fengchen enter the store again, and the expression on his face couldn't distinguish joy and sorrow, "Didn't you find anyone?" How did you come back again? Xiao He rushed up in a few steps, reached out and grabbed his collar, "Where are they?" Did you hide it? Say! ”
Seeing this, the ghost hand hurriedly waved his hand, "It's really wronged, I don't know what you say, it's true!" ”
Xiao He let go of his hand, turned around and walked upstairs. When the ghost hand saw it, it was broken, so he hurriedly went to stop it, "There's no one upstairs, there's really no one!" After speaking, he suddenly realized that he was clearly three hundred taels of silver here, and he couldn't wait to slap himself with a big mouth. Xiao He even quickened his pace, passed him, and went upstairs.
Neither of them expected that Xiao He would come back again.
The ghost hand is also not good at strategy, and if there is no one to guide him in the emergency response, he will not even panic.
After Xiao He rushed upstairs, he searched room by room, and soon found Han Xia. Seeing him lying on the bed, he couldn't wake up no matter how he screamed, because he was drugged and fell asleep. And Xiao Shi is gone.
She pulled out Han Xia's saber and put it on the neck of the ghost hand, "Say! Where is he? ”
Ghost Hand pretended to be confused, "Isn't he just lying there?" ”
Xiao He was angry and anxious, and word by word popped out from between his teeth, "Don't force me to do it!" ”
The ghost hand reached out and flicked her sword away, this kung fu skill is not bad, he really has no intention of making a move with Xiao He, as if he was a little annoyed while jumping his feet and scratching his head, "Ahhh Brother, it's not that I'm not strict-mouthed, I'm also forced! ”
He seemed to have made some major decision, the expression on his face was tangled to death, and he stopped talking for a long time before he said to Xiao He: "I'll tell you!" He left in the carriage just now, just before you came in, you didn't have half a cup of tea, and you ...... "Before he finished speaking, Xiao He had already rushed out.
When she entered the West Market just now, she saw a carriage that was almost past her. But she was anxious but didn't take a second look, Xiao Shi had the heart to avoid her, and he had been avoiding her since he entered this iron shop last night.
He even used the name of the jade-faced rakshasa to stimulate her, there must be some reason for this.
She is also confused, if he really has anything to do with the jade-faced rakshasa, he will not wait until today. He was rescued from the Jade-faced Rakshasa in the first place, what about the same door, who would care about the same door in that kind of organization that kills people without blinking.
She's not confused, she's dizzy with jealousy.
All the way out, there is still a carriage. Inquire all the way, all the way forward. It wasn't until she reached the south gate that she saw the carriage that had just passed her stopped at the rental point, and the coachman was feeding the horses.
Xiao He ran over, "This little brother, did you just come out of an iron shop in Xishi with a guest?" ”
The coachman looked at her, rolled his eyes, and did not answer.
Xiao He immediately understood, and took out the broken silver and stuffed it to him.
As soon as he saw that he had money, he immediately changed his face, "Exactly, this son, do you want to rent a car?" My horse is running steady and fast! ”
"The guest you pulled, isn't he so tall, his face is a little pale, with a sickly look, and a thin scar on his left cheek?" Xiao He continued to ask, gesturing.
"Yes, the guest got off at the city gate."
"Where is he going? Have you ever heard him say? ”
The coachman recalled: "I didn't say that, but I saw him get out of the car, talk to the people at Qingfeng Winery over there, and seem to have followed their convoy. Maybe not, anyway, I definitely said it, and I really don't know if we went together or not. ”
"Thank you!" Xiao He didn't have much time to continue to delay, so he went on the road first and continued to chase down.
Why did he talk to the people at Qingfeng Winery?
This Qingfeng Winery is a century-old shop in the imperial capital, and the wines produced are all of the finest, and there is a kind of wine exclusively for the royal family, which will be delivered to the palace or the palace outside the palace every few months.
Xiao He's mind suddenly struck like a bolt of lightning, and she remembered that when she first met Xiao Shi, it was in the cellar of Nanyuan Royal Hot Spring, and most of the wine stored there was supplied by Qingfeng Winery. Is he going to Nanyuan? At this time, why did you go to Nanyuan? Did he hide something there and have to take it?
Countless thoughts broke into her mind, and before she had time to think about them one by one, she had already galloped south.
When I arrived near Nanyuan, I saw the convoy of Qingfeng Winery, and the flag floated in the air, which was very eye-catching. It's just that the guys of the winery are moving wine back and forth into it, and this convoy is all these cars, and the wine jar on the car is also clear at a glance, and no one can be hidden. There was no one she was looking for.
Xiao He didn't give up, she bypassed the guards at the door and climbed over the wall from the side to enter.
Xu was intuitive, she felt that Xiao Shi had already come in here, as if she had heard a call in the dark, she avoided the patrol guards and went straight to the entrance of the cellar in the backyard. The wine of that year is stored in the storeroom, and the cellar is filled with old wine. So it's still quiet.
Xiao He saw that the lock at the entrance was open, and his heart beat wildly.
She opened the door, went down to the cellar, took an oil lamp from the entrance wall, lit it first, and walked down the steps with one hand.
Passing through the wooden shelves where the wine was kept, she saw him sitting there, leaning against a row of empty shelves. She looked at him with a wry smile, "Don't tell me, you're here to steal wine." ”
Xiao Shi looked at her, his gaze was slow, and he was a little surprised, "You...... How do you ......"
Xiao He turned around and sat next to him, put the oil lamp at his feet, and said with a bit of threat: "I want to listen to your explanation, if you dare to say half a lie, I will smash this lamp on the top of that row of wine jars!" ”
Hearing this, the expression on Xiao Shi's face was even more nervous, "You're crazy!" Don't want to die? ”
"Are you afraid? If you're afraid, don't lie to me again. Xiao He didn't know why he had this kind of thought, although he said it casually, but once he said it, he felt that it might be okay.
It's just a fire, and she's had seen it happen in her life. There were even times when she wondered that she should have been buried with them in that fire.
Xiao Shi stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, and Xiao He realized that his arms didn't seem to have much temperature, because his body was a little cold. But as he held her, the oil lamp fell to the ground with a thud, and then the light went out.
Xiao He couldn't help laughing, he was still so cunning that he eliminated his only means of threat.
"Promise me not to have such terrible thoughts again, are you going to destroy yourself?" His voice came from his ears, a little hoarse.
"Aren't you going to leave me? Why are you holding me at this time? Xiao He's voice weakened and turned into water, flowing softly in the endless darkness.
"If I had a choice, I wouldn't ......" He seemed to be speaking with great strength, his body trembling slightly and his voice seemed to be a little choked. Xiao He was slightly shocked, she had never seen him so excited, but because of her?
But she didn't have time to think about it anymore when she smelled a faint smell of drugs.
"Why ...... Give me ......" She lost consciousness before she could even ask the full question.
Asking what is the situation in the world, the straight man is stupid and crazy.
When Xiao He woke up again, he found himself lying in the bedroom, surrounded by familiar furnishings. She almost jumped out of bed, and when she pushed the door out, she met Hongzhu coming in with hot water, and the two of them almost collided.
"Childe! You're awake! What do you think? Is there anything else that is uncomfortable? Hongzhu looked concerned.
