Chapter 42: They Don't Know Either
"Bandits?" Ji Qiubai was shocked, and he was about to get up when he was single, but he just woke up, his body was weak, and he couldn't help coughing before he got up, and fell back on the bed.
Su Wan coughed, said "haha" twice at Ji Qiubai, and then turned his head to look at Xiao Mochen with a smile, "Is there something wrong with the prince?" ”
The corners of Xiao Mochen's lips hooked, directly ignoring her eyebrows and eyebrows, and said coolly, "You said earlier that you would go with this king to exterminate the remnants of the Holy Spirit Sect, but now that people haven't caught it, you want to retreat?" ”
Su Wan choked on a mouthful of saliva, eager to grab the cup on the table and smash it directly into his face.
Ji Qiu Baiyuan's pale face became even paler, and he grabbed her sleeves, and his complexion was already fierce, "Wan'er, what he said is true?" ”
Su Wan was helpless, so she could only grit her teeth and admit that Ji Qiu's white fingers couldn't stop shaking, and she vomited out a mouthful of blood, "You, are you going to be angry with me?" How did I teach you? What is she going to do with such a dangerous thing? You ......"
"Naturally, it's to save you." Xiao Mochen chuckled lightly as if he hadn't seen Su Wan's eyes.
Ji Qiubai's face couldn't help but turn red, and the palm holding her sleeve was weakly spread. Seeing that he blamed himself, Su Wan stood up angrily and rushed to Xiao Mochen, "Lord Wang, will you die if you don't say a few words?" The patient needs to recuperate, you don't know, still here noisy, go out. ”
Su Wan waved his hand and mercilessly ordered the eviction of the guest, Xiao Mochen was angry and left with his sleeves brushed up.
Ji Qiubai looked at Su Wan with concern in his eyes, coughed twice, and a sickly look appeared on his cheeks, "Wan'er, you shouldn't be so angry with the prince, King Chen is moody, you talk like this, I'm afraid that you have offended him, if he settles accounts after the autumn, ......"
"Settle accounts, I'm afraid he won't make it." Su Wan was angry, how could he manage so much, turned around and helped him lie down, "Master, don't worry about these things, besides, even if it is not for you, for the sake of the sick people in this courtyard, I have to catch the remnants of the Holy Spirit Sect, use their blood as a prescription, and save this house full of people who have been plagued by them." ”
Ji Qiubai knew that she was comforting herself, and immediately laughed cooperatively. Su Wan was relieved at this time, pushed the door and went out, just bumping into Xiao Mochen who was waiting outside the house, and glanced at him angrily, "Let's go." ”
Previously, Xiao Mochen learned from the mouths of those members of the Holy Spirit Sect that they just accepted the decree and threw the sick and dead into the river so that the plague could spread, but they didn't know how those people contracted the plague.
As for why they didn't get infected with the plague, it was because they took the elixir given by the elders, but it didn't necessarily work.
Su Wan touched the materials on the table and quickly stood up. There was a woman's cry outside the courtyard, as well as the sound of weapons ringing, Su Wan walked out of the house, looked at Ying Yue, who was held hostage by the guards, and sneered, "Miss Yingyue, long time no see." ”
"Naturally, I was looking for you to come and save people." Su Wan pursed his mouth and looked at her as if he was staring at some good medicinal herb, "Do it." ”
Invite Yue struggled desperately, and saw Twilight approaching her with a dagger, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly broke free from the guards on both sides, snatched the dagger from Twilight's hand, and pressed it against her neck, "Don't come here." ”
Dusk exclaimed, Su Wan didn't expect that Ying Yue had some kung fu, her heart jumped in shock, followed closely, and quickly calmed down. There was a hint of interest in her eyes, and she clapped her palms, "I only knew that Miss Yueyue looked like a fairy, but I didn't know that you still had some skills." ”
Ying Yue clenched the dagger, took a step back, gritted her teeth, and sneered, "What the hell do you want to do?" ”
Su Wan smiled, Qingguan immediately moved a chair for her to sit down, and looked at the dagger on Dusk's neck unconsciously, for fear that Invite Yue would make a mistake and take Dusk's life, Su Wan coughed, she immediately came back to her senses and hurriedly lowered her head.
Ying Yue's whole mind was on Su Wan, and she didn't notice Qingguan's demeanor, seeing Su Wan looking at her with playful eyes, she couldn't help but snort coldly, "Master Su,...... No, I should call you Miss Su, Miss Su, Ying Yue is just a dusty woman, not a doctor, she can't save people, and I ask Miss Su to ask for another Gao Ming. ”
Su Wan was silent, her fingers running around her hair, as if thinking about her words. Ying Yue's palm holding the dagger tightened unconsciously, her palms sweated, and she looked at her nervously. Twilight was held hostage by her, her hands twisted together, and her face was pale, but she gritted her teeth and didn't say a word.
"But I'm just taking a fancy to Miss Yueyue. Moreover, there is no cure for this disease except you. Su Wan raised her head with a smile, stood up, and walked up to her, a meter away.
Seeing that her footsteps did not stop, Ying Yue took a step further against the dagger on Twilight's neck, and suddenly increased her strength, Twilight screamed, and a very shallow blood mark was cut on her delicate neck. Ying Yue took a breath and shouted, "Don't come here, otherwise, I will kill her." ”
Originally, Su Wan was not sure what role this Ying Yue played in the Holy Spirit Sect, but seeing her nervous expression at this moment, she obviously knew some inside information, not just taking money to do things and being used by others. Thinking of the saying that the elders in the sect gave blood to save people, Su Wan narrowed his eyes, pinched his fingers on the cuffs, glanced at the blood stains oozing from Dusk Ci's neck, and turned his gaze away as if nothing happened, and his eyes fell on Ying Yue again, "Miss Ying Yue don't have to be nervous, I called you over, just to ask you to do a favor, if you don't want to, forget it." Come on, send the girl back with the invitation to the moon. I don't know, can Miss Yueyue let my maidservant go now? ”
She suddenly let go of her mouth, let Ying Yue be stunned, bit her lip tightly, grabbed the palm of Dusk Ci more vigorously, and suddenly sneered, "Miss Su, I have been rolling in the wind and dust for so many years, do you think I will believe your words?" I'm afraid that as soon as I let go, these guards around you will immediately come up and grab me. ”
"You're smart." Su Wan sighed, a wry smile on the corner of her lips, followed by a sudden shout, "Do it." ”
Ying Yue was startled, and suddenly looked back, Su Wan took the opportunity to step forward and grabbed her wrist. Knowing that she had been deceived, Ying Yue immediately turned around, flicked her sleeve, drew a dagger in her hand, and poked it at Su Wan's eyes.
Twilight was pushed aside, and when she saw Su Wan in danger in order to save her, she screamed in fright. Su Wan's heart rose to her throat for a moment, and she tried to retreat to dodge the dagger, but Ying Yue saw her face frightened, and the corners of her mouth showed a smug smile. Just when Su Wan thought she was dead, her body suddenly fell into an embrace, followed by the sound of a dagger entering the flesh sounded in her ears.
When she opened her eyes, she felt a drop of blood fall onto her cheek, and the heavy smell of blood poured into the tip of her nose. She looked up in a daze, and saw Xiao Mochen with a dagger stuck in his shoulder, and blood was dripping down his wound.
She blinked, and tears welled up in her eyes. Seeing her like this, Xiao Mochen couldn't help but look at her painfully, "Idiot." ”
When the words fell, his body trembled. Invite Yue took the opportunity to escape, but Gu Wu, who had been guarding the side, immediately caught up, and the long sword in his hand stabbed at her without hesitation with anger. Invite Yue's eyes burst out with a ruthless color, and suddenly pulled out a soft sword from his waist and stabbed at him.
Gu Wu didn't expect her to have a back hand, so he was shocked, and hurriedly retreated, avoiding this sword. Invite Yue gritted her teeth, did not entangle, and turned around and ran away. At this moment, Su Wan realized that Ying Yue's martial arts were not low, and his status in the Holy Spirit Sect was definitely not low.
Her eyes flashed, she let go of the palm that pulled Xiao Mochen's clothes, sprinkled it with gold sore medicine, and went to the house to get gauze out, Ji Qiubai was awakened by this movement, raised her eyes and looked outside, and saw that she was bandaging Xiao Mochen, and the palm holding the door panel unconsciously tightened, deliberately reminding her that men and women do not kiss, and she was weak and unable to take a step, so she could only look at it with her eyes.
Xiao Mochen noticed her expression, the corners of his lips curled, and he turned his head to look at Ji Qiubai, revealing a provocative smile. Ji Qiubai's breath was suffocated, his eyes suddenly sank, he gritted his teeth and stared at him, there was another itch in his throat, and he couldn't stop coughing. Su Wan made a movement in his hand, quickly bandaged the wound, and ran to Ji Qiubai's side to stroke his back and smooth his breath.
When Gu Wu came back with the disheveled hair of Ying Yue, he happened to meet the gloomy expression of his master, and he couldn't help but turn his head, and saw Su Wan and Ji Qiubai's "concubine love" looks. Gu Wu swallowed his saliva, and secretly sighed that Su Wan just had no heart and no lungs, which angered the prince, but he was afraid that Ying Yue would not have any good fruit to eat.
Ying Yue was broken by her, grabbed her shoulders and carried them back, her face was pale and bloodless, her forehead was sweating profusely, her hair was sticking to her cheeks, wet, and her whole person looked like she had just been fished out of the water. She raised her head hatefully, glared at Xiao Mochen, and saw that he was staring at Su Wan intently, and couldn't help but sneer, "The prince's thoughts, I, an outsider, can see it clearly, but this Miss Su ......"
Xiao Mochen could obviously slap her wrist and shoot down the dagger, but he wanted to block it with his chest, it seemed that it was for Su Wan at the moment, but unfortunately Su Wan only had a man next to him in his heart. A trace of pleasure crossed Ying Yue's eyes, poking his heart mercilessly and stimulating his nerves.
"Shut up!" Xiao Mochen suddenly turned his head, and two words burst out from between his lips and teeth.
Seeing that he was really stimulated, Ying Yue was proud in her heart, and just as she was about to speak, she crashed into the bitter coldness in his eyes, as if she was going to freeze her whole body. She was stunned for a moment, swallowed the words in her mouth unconsciously, came back to her senses, and couldn't help but shudder, and faintly regretted that she had just provoked him with the advantage of her tongue.
Without waiting for her to think about it, Gu Wu escorted her down. Su Wan helped Ji Qiubai in, and when he came out, he looked at Xiao Mochen with an unclear expression, "Miss Su and Doctor Ji are really in love with each other. ”
Su Wan naturally heard the ridicule in his words, if it was Su Wan before, no matter how faceless and skinless he was, he would be so naked that his cheeks would be red at this moment. It's a pity that the soul in her body has already fallen off, and she is automatically immune to Xiao Mochen's words, and she replied with a smile, "That's nature, people like Wang Ye who don't have a master, naturally there is no way to understand it." ”
Xiao Mochen was choked by her, and seeing that she did not refute the ridicule in her words, her eyes darkened, and she threw her sleeves away angrily.
Ji Qiubai naturally didn't know about this battle of words, Su Wan won back a game, was in a good mood, and followed Xiao Mochen to the dungeon where Invite Yue was held. Going down the entrance, Su Wan thought it would be dark, but saw that the walls on both sides were decorated with night pearls, making the dungeon as bright as day, Su Wan couldn't help but reach out and touch it, peeked at Xiao Mochen, and saw that he didn't notice himself, so he secretly took out a knife from his cuff and dug it up at the night pearl on the wall.
Gu Wu watched from behind her, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. Xiao Mochen noticed the movement behind her, looked back, and saw that she was picking at the beads on the wall hard, with a sly smile on the corner of her lips, stepped forward, and flicked her fingers on her head while her attention was all on the night pearl.
Su Wan was in pain, subconsciously hugged her head, looked up resentfully, and saw Xiao Mochen looking at her with a smile. She laughed twice, put away the dagger quietly, and wiped her fingers on the wall twice, "I'm just testing if the wall here is hard enough, so that the remnants of the Holy Spirit Sect don't run out." ”
"Oh? I don't know how Miss Su tested? Xiao Mochen squinted his eyes close to her, looking at the beads of sweat on her forehead with a smile.
"Checked." Su Wan's face was expressionless, he bypassed him without squinting, and walked straight forward, "Okay, let's go and interrogate Ying Yue, and strive to find out the cure as soon as possible." ”
"That'...... You don't want any of this? Xiao Mochen glanced at the night pearl inlaid on the wall, as if he had no intention of asking.
Su Wan subconsciously prepared to open his mouth to refuse, and when he turned his head, he saw that he was pointing to a night pearl, looking at himself with an innocent expression. Su Wan immediately shut up, nodded quickly, and said without knowing what shame was: "Yes." ”
Xiao Mochen smiled dumbly. Twilight and Qingguan followed behind Su Wan, their faces flushed to their necks, and they looked down at the tips of their shoes. Su Wan didn't care so much about the blood of Yingyue this time, she borrowed a lot of silver from Xiao Mochen to make a lot of money, plus she lived in the palace these days, but she asked for silver. Since Xiao Mochen wants to send it, she doesn't want it because she is a fool.
"Since Miss Su likes it, she might as well choose one or two at the dowry to decorate." Xiao Mochen blinked his eyes and opened his mouth with a teasing expression.
Su Wan was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed a little, he was playing with himself, he withdrew his hand stupidly, and did not answer his words. Xiao Mochen's hands were clenched, his nails were buckled, and the atmosphere was instantly gloomy.
Gu Wu secretly shook his head in his heart, this was the second time that Miss Su had rejected the prince. I really don't know if Miss Su is really stupid or fake stupid, the prince's mind is so obvious, she can't see it. Thinking about it like this, he couldn't help but feel angry for his master.
Su Wan naturally didn't care about the mood of their master and servant, went down the steps, walked to a cell, and saw at a glance that Ying Yue's whole person was hanging on the torture instrument in embarrassment, with her head lowered, and her expression was not clear. Although Su Wan had been in prison before, he had Xiao Mochen's support and did not suffer much.
