Early the next morning, Chu Tiankuo and Shui Wei took the carriage and left Lingcui Pavilion.

Chi Le rode his horse and secretly followed. "Senior sister, I can only help you like this, you have to work hard yourself." If you let Sister Yanxiang know that I help you like this, she might hate me to death. Chi Le sighed in his heart.

The same carriage ride, the same route to Lotus Island, the difference is that the person who accompanies you this time is the water vein. The water veins are not as noisy as cigarettes, and the two of them are relatively silent along the way.

Chu Tiankuo's brows were tightly locked, his back leaned against the back seat of the carriage, the bumps on the road made his wounds ache, and a little sweat broke out on his forehead.

Shui Wei took out the silk handkerchief embroidered for Chu Tiankuo and stroked his forehead. She gently and virtuously helped Chu Tiankuo wipe his sweat, which made Chu Tiankuo a little uncomfortable.

Chu Tiankuo coughed unnaturally, took the silk handkerchief in Shui Mai's hand, and said in a low voice, "I'll come by myself." ”

Chu Tiankuo wiped his sweat by himself, and wanted to reach out and return the silk handkerchief in his hand to Shui Wei, but suddenly withdrew his hand and smiled: "It's already dirty, I'll return it to you when I wash it." ”

Shui Mai looked gentle, and said shyly: "I can't pay it back if I say anything." This silk handkerchief was originally embroidered for you, and after embroidering, I never had a chance to give it to you. Everyone in the rivers and lakes calls you the son of the fan, and you like bamboo, so I embroidered a Qingyun fan on it, and I don't know if you like it or not. ”

Chu Tiankuo flattened the silk handkerchief and saw that the texture of the silk, the exquisite embroidery, was embroidered with a Qingyun fan, the bamboo on the fan was vigorous and straight, and the bamboo leaves were emerald and dripping. The lower right side of the silk handkerchief is embroidered with gold thread with the words "Lady of the Fan".

Chu Tiankuo praised: "It's really ingenious. Shuimai, you are ingenious, beautiful and intelligent, which man will marry you in the future, it is really a great blessing. ”

When Shui Mai heard this, he was happy, and he wanted to be reserved, but his mouth said: "Although I have many admirers, I can't look down on any of them. I admire heroes like you. I don't know whose woman is blessed to be with you for life? ”

When these words blurted out, Shui Mai himself was startled. She looked at Chu Tiankuo in a trance, expecting his response. For so many years, she has been secretly in love with Chu Tiankuo and never dared to show it. I didn't know which tendon was wrong just now, but I couldn't help but say it. Is it because of the poisoning?

The words of the water vein made Chu Tiankuo's calm heart lake ripple. His heart pounded, and he secretly sweated. For a long time, he believes that he is a confidant and friend with Shuimai, and he treats each other with all sincerity. Unexpectedly, Shui Mai has a soft spot for him, and she has been in the boudoir for so many years, originally to wait for him. He's not as good as a little girl with cigarettes. Smoke has long discovered the heart of the water vein.

Chu Tiankuo didn't dare to look at the eyes of the water vein, he opened the sedan curtain to look at the scenery outside. Looking into the distance, the peaks rise from the ground, the green trees on the top of the mountain are shaded, and the flowers and plants are set off, making the whole mountain peak dressed up as extraordinarily enchanting.

The water vein was still waiting for his answer.

Chu Tiankuo was silent, and after a long time, he carefully said: "I wander the rivers and lakes, and the four seas are my home, how is it a blessing to be with me?" I'm now in a life lawsuit for no reason, and I'm being hunted down everywhere. Before the grievances are cleared, how can I be in the mood to talk about marriage? ”

When Shui Mai heard this, his heart was half cold, he looked sad, and turned his face. She lifted the curtain and saw an unknown wildflower about to wither in the grass.

Staying at the inn at night, to Chu Tiankuo's surprise, there was actually a blue crab meat bun on the menu of the inn.

Chu Tiankuo's face showed joy and ordered a plate of blue crab meat buns.

Shui Pulse asked curiously, "What's wrong?" What makes you so happy? ”

Chu Tiankuo smiled and said, "It's nothing. I thought of cigarettes. The blue crab buns she made were delicious. ”

Shui Wei was slightly stunned, staring at Chu Tiankuo without saying anything.

Chu Tiankuo tried his best to explain: "You are also surprised. She looks like she is still a child, and she can actually make blue crab meat buns. I don't believe it unless I see it with my own eyes. ”

Shui Mai replied seriously: "Only you treat her as a child, we don't treat her as a child." ”

When the blue crab meat bun was served, Chu Tiankuo took a bite, frowned, and sighed: "I don't know how the smoke is going?" ”

Shui Mai was inexplicably panicked in his heart, but his face was very calm: "I can see her tomorrow." ”

Along the way, he either didn't speak, or when he did, it was something related to cigarettes. It can be seen how heavy the cigarette incense is in his heart. He was too good for cigarettes. There is a faint feeling of jealousy in the water veins. However, she quickly thought about it, Chu Tiankuo just regarded cigarettes as his sister. Chu Tiankuo's relationship with Yanxiang is like Chi Le's relationship with her, they are both brother and sister.

When she thought about it, she was relieved.

When booking a room, the innkeeper asked with a smile, "How many rooms do you want?" ”

Chu Tiankuo smiled strangely and said, "One room." ”

The boss glanced at them in a troubled manner, embarrassed and embarrassed.

The shopkeeper led them to see the room, and the shopkeeper greeted him courteously: "Guest officer, please excuse me, call me at any time if you have anything." ”

After the shopkeeper left, Shui Mai lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "The sky is wide, there is only one bed, leave it for you to sleep." You're not healed. ”

"No, you sleep in bed. I went to sleep next door with Brother Chi Le. Chu Tiankuo sat down, took a sip of tea, and smiled half-truthfully.

"What did you say?" I don't know if I didn't hear it clearly or I heard it clearly, she asked in surprise.

"Don't you think it's strange that the road is calm? It must be Brother Chi Le who secretly helped us get everything. If I guessed correctly, he was in the next room. If you don't believe me, come with me. Chu Tiankuo put down the teacup, stood up, and walked out. The water veins followed.

In the next room, Chi Le was doing exercises to heal his wounds, when a sudden knock on the door woke him up.

"Brother Chi Le, don't show up yet?" Chu Tiankuo shouted at Chi Le in the room.

Chi Le opened the door, and what caught his eye was Chu Tiankuo's smiling face, and the pale but surprised face of the water veins.

"How do you know I'm here?" Chile clay sculpture wood carving pestle there.

Chu Tiankuo stepped in by himself, turned around and smiled at him: "Actually, there is no fuss, I caught a glimpse out of the corner of my eye." ”

"You're so alert." Chi Le praised: "This can be discovered by you." ”

"From the moment we went out, I found you following us. I'm not guarding against you, and now that I'm being hunted down, of course I have to be vigilant. Chu Tiankuo solved his doubts and doubts.

Shui Mai looked at Chi Le for a while, saw that Chi Le's behavior was different, and asked with concern, "Senior brother, are you injured?" ”

"A little injury, it's fine. Don't worry about me. Chi Le patted her on the shoulder, and said in a flat tone: "Okay, you go and rest first." I'm going to have to hurry tomorrow. ”

After the water vein left, Chu Tiankuo inquired in detail about the origin of Chi Le's assassins. Listening to Chi Le's description, it should be someone sent by Xiangye. Xiangye really has a heart. He knows everything he goes. I don't know if going to Lotus Island will bring disaster to Doctor Lan's family.
