Chapter 34: All in vain
Qu Xin looked in the opposite direction to them, and Qu Yi went straight in that direction. On the way, he was careful all the way, for fear that the angry Qu Xu would find out. After crossing the stairs they had come from, he didn't hear Qu Xu catching up behind him, so he quickened his pace.
He had to find Qu Xin as soon as possible and let her learn the manuscript. Knocked down Qu Feng and took the scroll from them, and I don't know how Qu Xu would react, or if the rice had already been cooked. Besides, the people who came up from behind should be on the second floor soon, but there is not much time for them to wander around.
Qu Xu was taken aback when he saw Qu Feng fall to the ground, immediately looked left and right, and ran to the other end of the painting wall, but still did not find half a figure. Although he was in a hurry, Qu Xu still returned to Qu Feng's side, helped him up, and briefly checked it, but found no traces of external injuries on his body, and touched his body to be empty.
Qu Xu frowned and patted Qu Feng's face, he still showed no signs of waking up. Looking left and right, Qu Xu's eyes were immediately attracted by Chang'e running to the moon on the side. Suddenly, I thought it was associated with Qu Feng falling here, and I shouted in my heart. He slammed Qu Feng's middle and urged the meridians with qi, Qu Feng trembled and slowly opened his eyes.
"Brother Qu Feng, how are you, why did you fall here?"
Qu Feng touched his neck that was still aching, and his consciousness was still a little confused, but when he opened his eyes and saw Qu Xu with an anxious face, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Qu Xu...... Brother?!" At the same time, he immediately remembered what had just happened.
Qu Xu grabbed his shoulder and asked urgently, "Why did you fall here, what happened?"
Cold sweat broke out, his eyes rolled, and Qu Feng hurriedly said: "I was looking for the mural of Chang'e running to the moon just now, and when I walked here, before I had time to look at the mural, someone hit me from behind, and I don't remember what happened next." Did you see that man?"
Hearing Qu Feng say this, Qu Xu became even more anxious, which showed that the person who attacked Qu Feng had already come here, and he was running for Chang'e to the moon! He hurriedly looked at the mural on the side, which was still quietly motionless. From the outside, there are no signs of passivity, and there is no sign of the mechanism being opened.
Seeing this, Qu Xu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he remembered that his mother had said that the organs of the book collection were very complicated, and ordinary people couldn't find them at all, so he didn't have to worry. It seems that the man also found the mural, but he was unable to crack the mechanism. In that case, the manuscript is still his!
Qu Feng looked at Qu Xu, and from the change in his expression, he could see that it should not be Qu Feng who attacked him just now, so that his lie would not be exposed. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "Let's open the mechanism quickly and confirm the transcript inside." ”
Qu Xu nodded, and the two immediately stood up, with Qu Feng as the guard and Qu Xu as the mechanism. I saw him gather his qi in his fingers, and slowly injected the qi into the eyes of the jade rabbit, and with a flash of brilliance, a brick popped out with a "click". The two were overjoyed, but when Qu Xu took out the brick and looked inside, his smile suddenly froze.
The previous work was in vain, and Qu Xu knew that things had been taken away.
He stood up silently, Qu Feng saw that his appearance was very wrong, and he also sensed that it was not good, but he still asked with luck: "What about the manuscript......?"
"Ahh
Qu Xu suddenly slammed his fist on the wall, he never thought that he would be cut off like this!
Qu Feng shrank to the side and didn't dare to say anything, seeing this, he could guess what was happening. He was afraid that Qu Xu would pour his anger on his head, but also because he felt guilty. If it weren't for the fact that he had a hot head at the time and had to go to find a mechanism, but if he found the mural and shouted Qu Xu directly, things wouldn't have turned out like this.
Qu Xu's gaze turned to Qu Feng, and Qu Feng's heart trembled in fright, wondering what Qu Xu was going to ask and how he should answer. But Qu Xu suddenly smashed the wall again, sighed, and said, "It's useless to ask you, I'll go out later to see who got the scroll and know who did it." There was no point in continuing to trace the manuscript, and it was not certain that the man had already learned it. Now let's find other manuscripts, and the others should come up. ”
When Qu Feng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and when he saw Qu Xu, who was like a defeated rooster, he didn't dare to raise his head, so he could only nod his head vigorously and repeatedly.
On the other side, Qu Yi heard the voice behind him and knew that Qu Xu had found Qu Feng. He had to find Qu Xin quickly now.
After turning around, Qu Yi quickly found Qu Xin, who was looking for a mural. It seems that although she knew that Qu Xu and them were also there, she did not warn them. What a simple girl, if it weren't for him, this precious manuscript would have passed by her.
"Brother?!"
Qu Xin turned his head sharply, his eyes like electricity, and looked directly at Qu Yi's hiding place. Qu Yi walked out, raised his hands, and said helplessly: "How can you guess that it is mine? ”
Qu Xin said, "Can't I recognize my brother's footsteps?"
Qu Yi was a little surprised, although he was not as careful as he was to avoid Qu Xu just now, he also avoided making a sound as much as possible. was discovered by Qu Xin, who he thought was defenseless.
"Brother, why are you here, you're not over there...... Could it be that you found Chang'e to run to the moon?"
Qu Yi put on a wicked smile and said, "Guess." As he spoke, he took the white manuscript from his bosom. When he saw the white cover of the manuscript, Qu Xin covered his mouth in shock: "This is...... Did you really find it?!"
Qu Yi handed out the manuscript and said with a smile: "If I don't find it, how can I conjure up such a thing for you? ”
Qu Xin happily stretched out his hand, but when his hand was in the air, it stopped again, and his hand retracted.
"What's wrong?"
"Whoever found this treasure hunt is someone's thing, since it was found by the elder brother, then the elder brother should take it and learn it. ”
The manuscript spun around in Qu Yi's hand and fell back into his hand. He smiled and asked, "What my sister said is true, my mother asked you to find it, but my mother didn't let me find it." Are you really willing to give it to your brother?"
His eyes wandered, Qu Xin glanced at the manuscript again, then turned his head over, pretending to look for the mechanism on the mural, and said with a slight pout: "You take it, my mother also said that whoever gets the manuscript first belongs to whom." Since it was my brother who found it first, then it was my brother's. I'll explain it to my mother. ”
Looking at Qu Xin's cute appearance, Qu Yi couldn't help but smile. He looked down at the scroll in his hand, and asked himself in his heart, do you want it? The answer is self-evident, of course he wants to, this is a white-level martial arts manuscript! If he doesn't want such a precious and powerful manuscript, then what a heartless guy, or what level of guy he has reached.
He was neither of these two people, but he decided not to.
He walked up to Qu Xin, grabbed Qu Xin's hand, stuffed the scroll in his hand into Qu Xin's hand, and said, "This is what my brother helped you find, naturally it's yours, you can take it." Otherwise, I'll have to explain it to my mother. ”
