Chapter 8 The Comer is a Guest
γLanling City Nangong Mansionγ
"What did you find?" Nangong Li saw that Bai Luohan was returning from the night, so he asked.
Bai Luohan shook his head and said: "The paper is produced in Shuoyang, but the ink comes out of the Lingdu, and it is all in the condition that can be bought in all major fonts, how can I check this!" β
"Then what did Su Yao'er say?" Nangong Li asked.
Bai Luohan picked up the water cup in front of the case, drank it all and said, "She said... It was given to her by a beautiful older sister with a covered face. β
"Can you see beautiful with your face covered?" Nangong Li said with a wink.
"That's what she said, how do I know!" Bai Luohan put the water glass back on the table and said at the same time.
"This water... I've drunk it. Nangong Li said lightly.
Bai Luohan was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I don't dislike you!" β
At this time, a little maid carried a bowl of medicine and sent it to Nangong before leaving the case. Nangong Li glanced at the bowl of medicine, frowned, and said, "At least we know that the person is deliberately hiding his traces." β
Bai Luohan glanced at him and said, "That's a fart!" β
Nangong Li didn't answer his words, only to see him pick up the medicine bowl, take a sip lightly, and immediately smash the bowl back on the table.
Bai Luohan suddenly thought of something, so he took out a paper bag from his waist and handed it to Nangong Li, and said, "Wow! I knew that you were afraid of hardship, so I came back and passed by Nanji Zhai, and I bought it for you! β
Nangong Li took the paper bag and took out a piece of candy from it, but looked at it in a daze.
When Bai Luohan saw him like this, he laughed:
"Impressed! It's better for you to simply obey my brother! Brother guarantees you to eat and drink spicy food in this life! β
Nangong Li put the sugar in his mouth, and pushed the pile of documents in front of the case towards Bai Luohan, and said:
"It's okay, then there is Brother Lao."
Bai Luohan glanced at the pile of documents, which were all the large and small spy reports submitted by the Nangong Family's Shadow Division, as well as the details of the various tasks submitted by the Assassination Division, as well as the records of key operations in recent months......
Seeing this, Bai Luohan's scalp tingled for a while......
"Oops! It occurred to me that there was one more important thing to do! Gone, gone! Bai Luohan waved his hand, and slipped out the door without looking back.
"Wait!" Nangong Li called out to him and said, "Help me hand over this thing to Jin Ruocheng first." With that, he took out a box from the drawer and placed it on the desk.
Bai Luohan turned back into the room, carefully tucked the box to his chest, looked at him and said, "Is it worth it?" β
Nangong Li was stunned and replied, "It's worth it." β
Bai Luohan sighed slightly, then turned around and exited the room...
In the next few days, Nangong Li either slept lazily or teased the starling in his room. Because Qin Fangsu said that he had injuries on his body, he didn't let him worry about the big and small things at home, so he had to hand over everything to Bai Luohan to deal with.
Unlike Qin Fangsu, although Bai Luohan's surname is Bai, the Bai family has died many years ago, and he has grown up in the Nangong family since he was a child, and he regards the Nangong family as his home. Although Qin Fangsu entered the mansion at about the same time as Bai Luohan, the Qin family in Liaoyuan was still his teacher, and everyone in the Nangong family always regarded him as an outsider.
Moreover, the Liaoyuan Qin family is an authentic spirit sword, with a clear and honest demeanor, and he disdains to do those assassinations. Therefore, when the old sect master of Nangong was still alive, he authorized Qin Fangsu not to participate in the actions of the Nangong family.
In addition, Bai Luohan is from a famous family, and his spiritual power and body are also outstanding, although his temperament is very aggressive, but he does things in an orderly manner, and he has won the trust of Nangong Li, so it is appropriate for him to be in charge of the Nangong family on his behalf.
At this time, Nangong Li, who had nothing to do, seemed to have returned to the days when his father was still alive, which was leisurely and idle all day long. If he is really bored, he will take Bai Luohan out to have some fun, even if he stabs Lou Zi, his father must be reluctant to blame.
Although my brother is a little more serious on weekdays, he is also very fond of himself. Not only does he ask people to bring some ingenious gadgets or delicate snacks every once in a while, but even if he sometimes has to go far away for a mission, he will definitely ask people to come all the way to bring back some local specialties or something.
It's just that right now, his father is gone, his brother is still unconscious, and Bai Luohan has been busy all day without a trace, leaving only one Qin Fangsu who has been guarding his side... But if even Qin Fangsu has to leave one day...
"Childe, Sect Master Jin outside the door asks to see you." Qin Fangsu interrupted his thoughts.
"Huh? Which Jin Sect Master? Nangong Li had just regained his senses, so he didn't react for a while.
"Jin Ruocheng of the Floating Light Jin Family." Qin Fang replied.
Jin Zeyu is dead, so the current head of the family is naturally Jin Ruocheng, Nangong Li didn't know, but he didn't expect that this Jin Ruocheng would suddenly come to Lanling to find him.
So, with a lot of questions, he walked in the direction of the main hall...
At this time, in the main hall, Jin Ruocheng was indifferently sipping tea, and when he saw Nangong Li coming, after the two greeted each other, they heard Nangong Li ask:
"I don't know why Sect Master Jin came here this time?"
Jin Ruocheng looked at Nangong Li, smiled wickedly at the corner of his mouth, and said, "What? You are not allowed to come to me, not to you? β
Hearing this, Nangong Li was stunned, because he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine this person was selling.
Jin Ruocheng saw that he was speechless, remembering his clever words and eloquence when they met last time, and couldn't help but feel very relieved. So, he took out a brocade box and put it on the case, and said, "What you want!" β
Seeing this, Nangong Li was very surprised, because as far as he knew, the antidote refining process of this Dan corpse poison was very complicated, and it took more than half a month to say that it took him, but it was only less than ten days since he came back from Fuguang, could it be that he remembered the wrong day?
Seeing that he didn't react, Jin Ruocheng sneered:
"What? Afraid that I won't be able to cheat you? β
Nangong Li ordered Qin Fangsu to take the antidote and said:
"Naturally not, it's just this... Sect Master Jin only needs to pass the word, and I will send someone to pick it up, so why bother you to send it in person. β
Hearing this, Jin Ruocheng slowly walked to Nangong Li, propped his hands on his case, and said, "Then for the sake of me personally delivering the medicine, you can tell me, how did you kill Jin Zeyu?" β
Nangong Li looked up at him and said lightly, "I have no comment." β
"Humph! If you don't tell me, I'll rely on you to stay here!" Jin Ruocheng sat on the desk and shouted at Nangong.
"Sect Master Jin, please take care of yourself." After speaking, Nangong Li got up and walked towards the inner hall.
Seeing this, Jin Ruocheng jumped up and shouted at his back: "Hey! Nangong Li! You're going to cross the river and tear down the bridge! Unload the mill and kill the donkey! You give me back! What do you mean by leaving me here alone? Is this how your Nangong Mansion treats your benefactor? β
Nangong Li heard his words, so he stopped. Jin Ruocheng was secretly proud, but who knows, Nangong Li didn't turn around, but just said lightly to Qin Fangsu:
"Fang Su, prepare a room for Sect Master Jin, don't let people say that we have neglected our benefactor."
After saying that, he entered the inner hall without looking back.
"You!" Jin Ruocheng was speechless by his anger.
"Forget it." Jin Ruocheng thought to himself, anyway, he didn't want to go back so early now.
Thinking that he and Nangong only have a one-sided relationship, for their own interests, and people are not familiar with themselves, since both parties have reached their wishes, of course, it is a shot and two parts.
But because of that side, he couldn't erase that person from his mind. No matter how he slandered him before, he was not surprised, and after he knew the real culprit of the Liao family's murder case, he smiled and said that he wanted to kill himself. Even when he heard that Jin Zeyu had left for Lanling, he was still a little worried, but he didn't expect that a few days later, the news of Jin Zeyu's death was reported.
After this incident, Jin Ruocheng was even more sure that Nangong was really unfathomable to this person, but the more this was the case, the more he wanted to remove the veil and the more he wanted to get closer to that person.
So after Jin Zeyu died, he has been waiting for him, because he remembered that he said last time that he would bring him when they met next time, but he never thought that he would send Bai Luohan to send him over.
So, as soon as he received the curtain, he made the antidote rush overnight, and he didn't close his eyes for several days. As soon as the antidote was refined, he rushed to Lanling with his things, just to see that person again, at least... That's what he thought at the time.
But when I saw him again, I found that he was thinner than last time, and there was no blood on his face. Thinking that in such a short period of time, he had to take things and kill people, which had exhausted him. Jin Ruocheng suddenly had a silhouette in his heart, it was good that he didn't see it, but seeing it made him a little reluctant to leave.
"Sect Master Jin, it's here." Qin Fangsu stopped in front of the guest room and said to Jin Ruocheng.
Jin Ruocheng came back to his senses, went into the house to take a look at the furnishings in the room, and said, "It's not bad." β
Then, he turned to Qin Fangsu and said with a hippie smile: "Then your second son... Where to stay? β
But Qin Fangsu didn't seem to hear it, so he turned around and left, leaving Jin Ruocheng in place with a blank face.
"Cut! If you don't tell me, I can't ask anyone else! Jin Ruocheng muttered to herself.
Qin Fangsu returned to Nangong Li's room, and saw that he was holding a bowl of medicine, looking at it in a daze with his brows furrowed...
Seeing Qin Fang enter the house, Nangong Li hurriedly poured all the bowl of medicine into his mouth...
"Ahem! Cough...! β
But he obviously drank too quickly, so he choked and couldn't breathe...
Seeing this, Qin Fangsu hurriedly helped him smooth his breath and said, "Why are you drinking so fast?" β
"Did he say anything?" After Nangong relieved himself, he looked at Qin Fangsu and asked.
Qin Fangsu saw that he was better, so he picked up the medicine bowl that was thrown on the ground by Nangong Li just now, and said, "I didn't say anything, I asked where you live." β
"Huh?" Nangong Li looked dazed.
"Do you want me to send someone to keep an eye on him?" Qin Fangsu asked.
Nangong Li thought for a moment, and then said, "No, let him go." β
