Chapter 39: Digging a Hole in the Night
Xie Ling was sarcastically touched by Gu Changqing's silence.
When she was excited, she stood up, but she got up too violently, she stumbled and almost fell, and just when she couldn't find her balance, Gu Changqing grabbed her.
She stood still in shock, looking at the thorns and weeds on the ground under the high wall, if she fell, she would probably not die or be disabled.
She glared at Gu Changqing and couldn't help but say, "Next time, if you look at me like this again, I will make you regret it." ”
Xie Ling, who had just stood still, shook his whole person inside because of his excitement, and Gu Changqing didn't react, and the whole person was taken down by her.
Xie Ling was lying on the ground, touching the thorns on the ground and only having one thought in his heart, that is, the feeling of falling from a high place was not as terrible as he had imagined just now, it hurt, but when he moved, his body was fine, not disabled.
Xie Ling sat up, suddenly remembered something, and then stretched out her hand and touched her side, she only remembered that she dragged Gu Changqing in a hurry.
She just touched Gu Changqing's face, and without looking, the cold temperature had gradually spread through the palm of her hand.
She quickly withdrew her hand.
Gu Changqing didn't have time to think about it when he fell, he just stretched out his hand and padded it on her back, it hurt terribly at this time, but he still endured it and didn't say anything, just a little shortness and pain in his breathing.
Xie Ling didn't dare to look at him, so he could only ask, "Are you okay?" ”
Gu Changqing sat up by himself, desperately held back the pain and lowered his voice and said, "If you can't die, it's okay." ”
Xie Ling hurriedly looked back in fear, he was rubbing the injured arm with his other hand, cold sweat slowly broke out on his forehead, more and more, fine and crystal in the moonlight.
"Then let's go, don't continue, you're like this, I guess you won't be able to grab it." Xie Lingnuo said.
After speaking, he got up and wanted to help Gu Changqing up, who knew that he would use his injured arm to hold her tightly, his eyes were like a dark abyss, "Do you think you can escape?" I know you can't bear it. ”
Gu Changqing's meaning was very obvious, because he was injured because of her, so even if she didn't even apologize, she had to help him grab something!
Xie Ling gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Okay, then what do you say I should do!" ”
The only thing Gu Changqing can be sure of at this time is that the words Li Qiyue said were deliberately released to him, and tonight, Li Qiyue will definitely create a chance for him, so now they must seize the opportunity to find that thing, and after tonight, they don't know if there is a chance.
He was injured, and it was estimated that he would not be able to do it, so he had to leave Xie Ling behind.
At the same time as the two of them were struggling, in Li Qiyue's room in the Li Mansion, she took a book and looked at it twice and then put it down, holding the embroidered needle and thread, only showing off half of the petals, and then put it down.
When you're upset, you can't do anything.
Soon, her personal maid ran in and said in a small voice in her ear, "Master Gu is here." ”
She nodded slightly, and the stone in her heart gradually let go, and when she said those words today, she was still worried that he would not understand and could not think of it.
"How's they going?"
"I'm afraid that they will find out, so I didn't dare to get too close, it was too dark to see clearly."
Li Qiyue waved her hand, "You go and keep watching, and you must not let people get close there." ”
Long before Gu Changqing came here, Li Qiyue knew that sooner or later they would come, and she was ready for everything, since her mother didn't dare to do it, then she would do it.
In today's Li Mansion, no one will find Gu Changqing.
However, the two people who were operating in that darkness seemed to cooperate better after what had just happened.
He caught the guilt in Xie Ling's heart, so he called her to his heart's content.
He commanded on the side, and Xie Ling did all the physical and dirty work, and there could be no complaints.
"Miss Li said today that his father didn't say anything but didn't let this place be moved, and Mrs. Li also said that she didn't tell her family anything about Lord Li's case, so Miss Li's words have a meaning, that is, the thing that Li Hongsheng hid is here."
"How do you know?" Xie Ling said, holding a hoe stolen in the corner of the garden.
Gu Changqing's face was expressionless, and he didn't seem to hear Xie Ling's question just now, and said to himself, "You come here." He pointed to the place where Li Qiyue had reached out to play with the wild grass with that intact hand.
Xie Ling lifted his hoe and placed it in the position he was pointing at, "Is this here?" ”
Gu Changqing nodded, "Yes." ”
Xie Ling took the hoe and dug in the middle of the night, because it had snowed a few days ago, and the weather was unusually cold, the soil on the ground had been frozen together, Xie Ling was digging with sweat, seeing that the pit was getting bigger and bigger but there was no trace of anything, so he threw the hoe, stared at Gu Changqing and said, "Did you do it on purpose, you knew that you didn't let me dig it." ”
Gu Changqing was also wondering, it stands to reason that with Li Qiyue's movements and language instructions, things should be placed here.
Then he was wrong, Li Qiyue just wanted to remember her ancestors, but she didn't mean that.
Thinking of this, he shook his head himself, impossible, Li Qiyue's words during the day obviously had a deep meaning, and the two people just fell down and made a loud noise, if it wasn't for someone to explain or deliberately act as if they didn't hear it, the two of them would have been arrested as thieves a long time ago.
He walked over, forgot about the injury to his arm in a momentary hurry, and shook it in the air, and he took a deep breath in pain.
Xie Ling hurriedly ran over, "Isn't it okay if I don't say it?" Whatever you say is what you say, and I will dig where you point. ”
She thought that Gu Changqing's pain just now was deliberate, to threaten her, but there was no way, who let it be her fault, she could only endure it and be obedient.
However, Gu Changqing didn't think about it so much, he walked over silently, looking at the pit dug by Xie Ling, the pit was already very deep and wide, and there was no point in digging it, but where would Li Hongsheng hide things? What does Li Qiyue's action mean?
Thinking about it, I looked up and suddenly saw something.
It's the red plum that came out of the wall just now, and it's still sentimental in the quiet corner of the night.
He looked at Xie Ling, "What was Li Qiyue's actions when she was here today, do you remember?" ”
Thinking of her indifferent and elegant appearance during the day, Xie Ling nodded reluctantly, "Well, remember." ”
"Come and show me."
Xie Ling squatted on the edge of the pit, learning from Li Qiyue's appearance of playing with grass during the day, although he tried to imitate it, but the effect was unsatisfactory.
From Gu Changqing's point of view, I don't know how funny it is, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, but he was still discovered by Xie Ling, and she stood up angrily, "I don't study anymore." ”
This sentence is no longer important, when she was learning from Li Qiyue's example, when her eyes naturally looked at the red plum tree, he had already got the answer he wanted.
"Did you see that? The secret lies down there. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, softly, as if he were telling some secret, "This time it must be true." ”
After speaking, he felt that something was missing, so he patted her on the shoulder as Xie Ling usually did.
"Really?" Xie Ling glanced at it hesitantly, she was really afraid that what had just happened to her, after all, this permafrost was not so easy to dig, and she had to use full strength, and she couldn't make a loud noise.
Gu Changqing nodded vigorously and said with great certainty, "That's it, I'm sure." ”
Because it was under a tree, digging didn't seem to be as laborious as just now, and Xie Ling just dug a few times before he felt the hoe touch something.
Seeing this, she quickly dug twice, a small sealed jar, not really, it is estimated that it can only put eight or nine eggs.
She showed the jar with sticky soil to Gu Changqing, but before the soil on it could see whether it was black or red, she heard a violent dog barking.
The dogs from nowhere, I don't know if they heard the sound or smelled them or saw them, but it was always the huge hound that galloped towards the two men.
Gu Changqing held another injured arm with his other hand, Xie Ling hugged the small jar and ran away, and rushed out with his head down when the two subordinates who were standing guard at the door did not react.
The hound, dutifully chased them for several blocks before giving up.
Xie Ling was tired and spread on the ground, Gu Changqing also raised his injured arm and lay down, and the stars in the sky poked their heads out one by one at this time, blinking at them.
Xie Ling suddenly began to laugh, this night was really thrilling.
Gu Changqing glanced at Xie Ling secretly, she didn't hide her smile at all, under the light of the starry sky, people were reluctant to look away.
