Chapter 20: Chu Li's Death
Qianxi put the hangover medicine under the pillow and carefully took off Qingyan's shoes and socks. dragged her bulky body into the bed and covered her with the quilt.
Tomorrow, be sure to ask her what happened. Qianxi rolled over and continued to sleep.
Early the next morning.
Qianxi came to practice alone, and Lin Chuan quietly asked her how Qingyan was? Before she could speak, she was called by Bai Yan's name.
"Asakyu? What about Qingmi? Why didn't she come? ”
She ...... She's sick! Qianxi reluctantly made up such a lie, hoping that the master would not know that she went to drink and was drunk, especially that she went to drink with Lin Chuan, if this is investigated, Lin Chuan will not be able to escape the blame.
"Take me to see her!" Bai Yan's heart suddenly became worried, what's the matter, did he make her sick again? Last time, she had a cold illness, maybe she didn't get better.
Bai Yan walked into the house and saw that Qingyan was still sleeping peacefully on the collapse. I couldn't wake up no matter how I screamed, I felt my pulse and breathing, and everything was normal. But I smelled a very fragrant wine.
"What's going on? Qianxi, she drank last night? Bai Yan looked at her, feeling inexplicably distressed.
"Yes, last night she came back in the middle of the night and slept with a smell of alcohol, I don't know what's going on......" Qianxi said, her voice getting quieter and quieter, and her confidence became less and less.
Bai Yan carried her into his room, looked at her immature and clean face and a sleeping appearance with a big heart, and thought about it, it was good to sleep for a while.
Everything, let's talk about it when she wakes up!
The senior brothers were still practicing, and when they dispersed at noon, Qianxi found Lin Chuan. Lin Chuan was no longer the Lin Chuan of the past, and he couldn't wait to take the second pill. For this woman who has nothing to do with him, and doesn't even have any use value, he feels uncomfortable saying a word more.
"Lin Chuan, what's wrong with Qingyan?"
"Drunk." Didn't you see that? As you can see.
"Why are you taking her out for a drink!!
"She's going to drink it herself."
"But you can't drink too much wine! How worrying it is to be drunk and not awake now! "Actually, what I really want to ask is, why, in the middle of the night, the two of them appeared at the same time. Why, the two of them went to drink together, why, she told Qingyan that she liked Lin Chuan, but Qingyan still went to Lin Chuan to drink.
"It's my fault, I didn't keep an eye on her, I knew it was so, so I wouldn't let her drink it." After Lin Chuan finished speaking, he left without waiting for Qianxi's answer, Qianxi had already noticed his change, but she couldn't think of what caused it.
Qingyan slept for a whole day, and when she woke up in the evening, she opened her eyes and wanted to call her senior sister, but she saw Master Bai Yan sitting next to her. This made her, who was still a little hysterical, sober up instantly.
"Are you awake?" Bai Yan touched her head, like she was a child, "This is sobering soup, you should drink it quickly!" ”
Qingyan took the bowl and drank it in a big gulp, wanting to say that it was so bitter, but seeing that it was Bai Yan sitting opposite, he couldn't help but say nothing.
"Come, eat a piece of sugar, and it won't be bitter if you eat a piece of sugar." Bai Yan took out a small handful of sugar and sent it to Qingyan's mouth.
At this time, Qingyan became a child, crying, some people coaxed the child, and some people touched her head when she was sick and gave her candy to eat. Compared with the various grievances suffered before, these gentleness can be more moving.
Qingyan bit the candy, and the tears flowed in two long rows. She cried bitterly.
Bai Yan's heart was also tingling, letting the child suffer so many grievances, he couldn't bear it, he stretched out his hand and hugged Qingyan's small but somewhat fleshy body in his arms.
"Don't cry, don't be afraid, there will be a master in the future!" He patted Qingyan's back as he spoke, hating to be able to confide in the feelings that had been suppressed in his heart for more than ten years, but he didn't, he didn't want her to know, maybe in this way, she would be safer, more willing to be an ordinary and ordinary person, that is good, contented and happy, and live this life lightly.
Qingyan didn't speak, she was still crying hard, and the sugar in her mouth was like that, exuding a faint sweetness. When she finished crying, she felt a little embarrassed, and wiped her tears with a smile.
"Qingyan, don't cry, promise me, don't cry later, if you want to cry, you can only cry in front of the person who loves you, promise me." Bai Yan said, he almost cried.
"Master, I promise you. After that, I definitely don't cry easily anymore. ”
Although crying is venting, it is also a symbol of the weak, in the people who don't love you, crying is self-lowering, this is what Baiyan teaches Qingyan, which Qingyan has never forgotten.
Qingyan came back, her head was still a little dizzy, and when she saw her sister waiting for her to come back at the door, her heart was warm and warm. Before she reached the door, the senior sister greeted her and hurriedly supported her.
"Senior sister, I'll go by myself," Qingyan refused, "I'm not dizzy anymore." ”
"It's okay, I'll hold you a little more steadily." The senior sister didn't let go, but helped harder.
"Why did you go out for a drink so late last night! Also with Lin Chuan. ”
"Senior sister, I ......" Qingyan was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say. It was because I suddenly couldn't sleep and wanted to drink, so I asked Senior Brother Lin Chuan to drink. ”
"Alright! So where do you get your wine? ”
"You forgot, there was a lot of wine for Senior Twilight last time, and I secretly went to him to ask for it."
"Don't drink so much in the future, you're drunk, everyone is worried about you!"
Qingyan nodded, and went to bed to get ready for bed, I won't go to practice tonight, and a beautiful sleep is the right thing.
This evening.
Lin Chuan was still sitting there drinking alone, and in order to prevent the master from discovering that he had brewed wine privately, he deliberately stole two pots of wine from Twilight. In other words, even if the price of the wine bought here is high, it is not as good as the wine made by yourself.
The footsteps behind him sounded again, and he knew that it must be the man again, and he only cared about drinking, and ignored it, he knew that he would not expose himself easily.
The familiar voice came from behind him, calling his name, calling him Lin Chuan, not Bai Linchuan, he is not surnamed Bai, Bai is the surname he added again after coming to the Baiyi faction, his surname is Lin.
"Lin Chuan, Lin Chuan......" The voice surrounded the bamboo forest in all directions, wrapping him in an unknown but familiar place.
"Little Peach, Little Peach......" he shouted as if he was answering the voice, but despite his hoarse answer, the voice continued to shout as if he hadn't heard it.
He knew that shouting like this was useless, all he needed to do was to sit here and wait for the man in black to come, assign him some tasks, teach him what he should do, he quieted down, but he didn't see the man in black coming.
"Lin Chuan, Lin Chuan......" The voice became more and more urgent, even like a cry for help struggling in danger.
"Little Peach ......" Lin Chuan put the wine on the ground casually, did not put it steady, the wine flowed down the dead leaves, and the fragrance of the wine was mixed with the fragrance of bamboo in the bamboo forest, which made people trance.
At such a moment, the moon and stars are scarce, and the night is dark and the wind is high. Best for killing.
Lin Chuan couldn't help but walk towards the voice in his heart, and in the darkness, he heard a sound similar to footsteps.
The man was around here, he was sure. He slowed his pace as fast as he could, and met the man.
"Senior Brother Chu Li? It's you? Lin Chuan guessed right, it was him, Bai Chuli.
"Lin Chuan, I didn't expect it to be you." Chu Li knew that he couldn't escape, and at the moment, he could only helplessly take his tongue.
"This isn't the first time you've stalked me, has it?! I don't understand what you're going to do! Lin Chuan said, killing intent already surging in his heart.
"It's just curiosity. Seeing that you have a close relationship with the man in black, I want to find out. ”
"Senior brother, be a man, don't be too curious, after all, curiosity kills people." Lin Chuan said, already drawing the sword behind him.
But he didn't want Chu Li to be on guard, so he also pulled out the sword behind him, and quickly blocked the sword that stabbed straight at him, and the two of them were entangled, and soon, Chu Li fell behind.
"Senior brother, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself!"
"You have to take care of it!" Lin Chuan angrily stabbed the sword mercilessly at Chu Li's throat, Chu Li flashed, and the sword slashed through the right side of his face.
Chu Li wiped the blood on his face with his hand, and instantly came to the fighting spirit, and greeted him again.
This time, he wasn't so lucky.
The sword stabbed him straight in the heart.
Looking at Chu Li, who was stained with blood in the bamboo forest, Lin Chuan showed a smile after victory, he buried him in the bamboo forest like those wines that buried him, but, perhaps, he would still be found.
In the darkness of the night, he picked up the wine that had been spilled a lot, he carried Chu Li on his back with one hand, and poured the pot of wine into his mouth with the other.
Whoever stands in my way, die!
He climbed to the edge of the cliff, remembering the scene where he and Chu Li had practiced swords together in the past few years, and now he looked at Chu Li, who had stopped breathing, and what else did he say, "If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself" What qualifications does he have to persuade him like this! What are the qualifications!
"Senior brother, Bai Chuli, go all the way!" He threw Chu Li's body off the cliff mercilessly, and when he left, he also took away the wine jar, and this night, he buried it all.
The killing, once it starts, will only end with the death of the killer, otherwise, it will never stop.
Of course, he also knew that Chu Li was his senior brother, but one day, he didn't want to be killed by his own senior brother, so he could only blame his senior brother for being unlucky.
Bai Qingyan didn't come over tonight, which made him very happy, so he didn't have to worry about what she would find.
He took the polished sword, put it in its scabbard, and walked back to the bedchamber, all of which made him unable to sleep with some excitement. What would happen if Master found out? He wouldn't doubt him! That cliff is so deep, it is estimated that no one will look for his body. And the senior sisters and brothers, naturally they will not suspect that he has always been gentle and committed this murder.
And he was very sure, from the time he was attracted by the voice and found Bai Chuli who was hiding in the dark to spy on him, he knew that all this must have been intentionally discovered by him, even if he didn't deal with the corpse, the man in black would help him deal with it, and he still had some confidence in this.
"Success?"
Lin Chuan pushed open the door, and the man in black stood in front of his bed. Asked coldly.
"He's dead." Lin Chuan walked over, found a chair and sat down. "If I'm not mistaken, you asked me to kill him!"
"That's right, you're doing a great job."
"It's dark at night, I don't know how to deal with it, although Bai Yan is not smart, but he is not stupid enough to think that someone else did it."
"Then you can rest assured!" The man in black sneered, ten years ago, he should have died, but he was only seriously injured, and now, in the catastrophe, I want you to completely disappear from the rivers and lakes. "I'll make him believe it."
"Then it's up to you." As early as Lin Chuan's expectation, he walked on the bed, lay down, and the man in black left from the dark passage.
A wicked man is his own hell. He dreamed that Chu Li's eyes were wide open with anger, and the blood in his mouth spurted out because he was about to say these words.
Of course he wasn't afraid, he told himself that it was just a dream, Chu Li, he was dead a long time ago. When he woke up, he went to practice swordsmanship, and saw everyone there, sleepy-eyed, rubbing his eyes.
