At sunset, on the west mountain, on the moon at dusk, Bazhou is located in a narrow area, and everyone has long been closed on weekdays, and the city is as quiet as ruins. But now it is different from the past, the fast catchers in the yamen, dressed in military uniforms, as if facing a great enemy, have searched for criminals from house to house since the evening, from the east of the city to the west of the city, and have almost turned over the city of Bazhou.

Just as every house was jumping, in the winding alleys of the west of the city, there was also a horse-drawn carriage speeding in the middle of the night, turning a few streets, before it stopped under a high wall. As soon as the car stopped, the sedan curtain was lifted, and a person jumped down, and he could see clearly under the clear sky and moon, it was Bai Qian, the eldest lady of Bai Mancang's family.

Hearing the movement outside, an inconspicuous small door under the wall sneered, pushed open half of the door, slightly revealing half of the face of the maid Xiao Zao, she saw that it was Miss, happily jumped out of the door, and said: "Miss, you are here, I am almost worried to death!" ”

Bai Qian looked at her crying face, knowing that Xiao Yahuan had indeed borne her heart for a long time, she patted her little face with pity, and said, "Didn't you not have to worry about it?" As soon as he spoke, he was about to enter the house, and one foot was still outside, and suddenly as if he remembered something, he looked at the silent coachman outside the door, and said to Xiao Zao: "You go and thank him!" ”

Xiao Zao pushed the young lady in and said, "You go in quickly, I know!" He closed the door, came to the coachman, raised his face, and said, "Hey, Miss told me to thank you!" ”

It was the coachman Dahua who drove the car, and Xiao Zao screamed a few times, but he didn't hear it, and only stood on his tiptoes, so that his eyes could pass over Xiao Zao's cloud temples and stay a little longer where Bai Qian entered the door.

Xiao Zao was so anxious that he hammered him twice, and said angrily: "Don't look at it, be careful to see too much, it will kill you!" Hey, you said so many bad things about our Bai family in the afternoon, believe it or not, tell it to Miss? ”

Dahua came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I only scolded the old guy surnamed Bai, Miss is so good to us, I know in my heart, I don't even dare to say half a bad word about Miss even in my dreams!" ”

It turned out that Bai Mancang was extremely stingy, obviously he had thousands of family fortunes but was reluctant to spend more money, how could Bai Qian not know that it was often ordinary people who suffered, although she was dissatisfied, she could only quietly make up for others, and the days of not teaching them were even more sad. This afternoon, she asked Xiaozao to bring twenty dollars to return to the coachman, Dahua got the money, and her heart was full of joy, and she had already forgotten about the scolding.

While the two were talking, Bai Qian urged again and again, Xiaozao gave Dahua a sum of money, and told him to hide in the shade of the wall, and use the car for a while, then he entered the door to find Bai Qian. At this time, it was already dark at night, but the sound of drums piercing the clouds could still be faintly heard in front of her, and Bai Qian asked strangely: "Xiao Zao, what kind of place is this, why is it so lively?" ”

"Here...... It's also a big family here, maybe the host's family is marrying a little wife and a little wife, so it's so lively. ”

"Phew! Hugh wants to hide it from me, don't you know this place in Soyufang? ”

"Ah, so you've been to this place, Miss?"

"When have I been here?"

"I can't help it, there are officers and soldiers everywhere now, only here is the safest!"

"Forget it, he ...... He is the savior of our family, even if he takes a little risk, he deserves it. Is this coming? ”

This is a quiet house, few people come on weekdays, but it is also trimmed and dust-free, the house is like a bean, and it is faintly visible that there is a person lying on the bed against the wall, covered with a thin quilt, if it is not for the breathing together, almost think that it is not the living.

Now that she has come here, Bai Qian is a little hesitant and hesitant. Xiao Zao pushed her and said softly: "Miss, what are you waiting for, go up and see him, I'll go to the door to guard you and make sure no one comes to disturb you!" Bai Qian sighed, didn't hold it, Xiao Zao had already turned around and went out of the door, and closed the door casually.

Bai Qian had never been alone in a room with a strange man, her face was so red with shame, she stood there for a long time, and cheered herself several times before slowly walking to the bed. I saw that the person lying on the couch was indeed the black knight at the afternoon horse race, still wearing the black clothes, not even taking off the black scarf on his face, closing his eyes, frowning, as if he was trying his best to endure the pain.

Bai Qian suddenly became curious, and wanted to see what he looked like, and as soon as his hand reached out to his face, the man suddenly opened his eyes, and said weakly: "Who are you?" ”

In Bai Qian's heart, there was originally a thought of "you shouldn't guess what he looks like", but when she saw him suddenly open her eyes, she couldn't help but sigh, as if she was frightened and not him, and the first thought was to leave quickly, and never see him again.

As soon as he ran to the door, the man hummed again, as if he had touched the wound and caused pain. Bai Qian couldn't bear to leave for a while, exhaled a few deep breaths, calmed her mind, and then turned around and said, "I...... My name is Bai Qian, it's you, well, it's the family you stopped the startled horse in the afternoon and saved it. Well, if you save my life, I will save your life, this is called one life for one life, and there is no credit! After speaking, Fang felt that what he said was nondescript, like an idiot, maybe he was already laughing secretly in his heart, and he couldn't help but be secretly annoyed, and blurted out: "If you don't smile on your face, it's the same if you smile in your heart!" ”

The man didn't laugh, but there was a smile in his eyes when he heard her words, but in this way, his tightly knit brows also relaxed, and said: "I didn't want to laugh, I have to be saved once I save someone, and I have to be killed once I kill someone, if that's the case, then there is no me in the world for a long time, and you can't save it if you want to." ”

Bai Qian said suspiciously: "Have you killed a lot of people?" ”

The man said, "It's not a lot, but I did kill people, so God punished me for being ugly, and scared you, so I don't see it." ”

Bai Qian said: "Then forget it, how good-looking do you think you are, everyone wants to see it?" As if she was about to turn around and leave, the man stopped her, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I am now a fugitive criminal, Zhao Mengjue is trying every possible way to arrest him, you see my appearance, it may not be of any good." As he spoke, he reached out and slowly pulled down the mask.

At this time, a bright moon penetrated through the window, and under the clear light, a face as resolute as a stone carving was revealed, with straight facial features, long eyebrows and handsome eyes, and the face was white and bloodless. Bai Qian secretly said in her heart: "It's not so ugly, at least it's much more handsome than a tuberculosis ghost like Gongzi Xiaosu!" Thinking of this, his face flushed slightly, and he looked for something to ask, "What about it...... So what's your name? ”

The man was silent, and after a moment he said, "...... The cheap name is not enough to worry about, but if you ask, you can't help but say, my name is Chu Jiangqiu. ”

"Chu Jiangqiu, Chu Jiangqiu......" Bai Qian silently recited the name a few times, and saw that the brows he had just stretched were gathered together again, cold sweat was pouring down his forehead, knowing that he was seriously injured by the arrow in his vest, and it was extremely difficult to endure it until now without dying, and he could still talk and laugh, so he said: "You bear with it for a while, I'll buy you Jinchuang medicine!" As he spoke, he turned around and was about to go out to buy medicine.

"Wait ......" The man named Chu Jiangqiu said a lot of words at once, and gradually became a little unsupportable, unspeakable, and in a hurry, he grabbed Bai Qian's hand.

This grasp also has some effect, according to Bai Qian's character, if she wants to do something, even if she says 1,800 sentences, she may not be able to stop her, Chu Jiangqiu is weak after being injured, and let go with a slight pinch. But with this pinch, Bai Qian seemed to be hit by the acupoint, and her whole body didn't dare to move even a little.

Chu Jiangqiu only felt that a small hand that was as soft as fat was held in his hand, even if he let go, there seemed to be a lingering fragrance, he felt slightly embarrassed, and said apologetically: "Bai ...... Miss Bai, I really didn't mean to, you ......" Before I finished speaking, I couldn't get up in one breath, I only felt that the real qi in my chest was mixed, chaotic, and extremely uncomfortable.

Bai Qian breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, her face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and said coldly: "Don't say it, I didn't pinch it on purpose, what do you say?" ”

Chu Jiangqiu secretly lucked and adjusted the messy true qi in his chest, and after a while, he felt better and said, "You...... Where are you going to buy your medicine? ”

"O pharmacy! How expensive are you, can't even be cured by the best gold creation medicine? ”

"No...... No, you think about it, if you shoot me with an arrow...... I—I mean what if...... Then you, will you put the medicine in the pharmacy and wait for me to buy it? ”

"Hmm...... Even if you're right, I don't believe they'll run out of medicine in the city! ”

"The one surnamed Zhao did it, even if he had one or two rooms left, it must be a bait, and whoever came to buy the gold creation medicine would send someone to follow him, until, until he found me!"

Chu Jiangqiu guessed well, starting in the afternoon, the people who ran all over the city to buy Jinchuang Medicine were all unlucky, they couldn't understand why they were scratched by the family cat, or their heads were broken by their wives, they would be dragged to the yamen and suffer a lot in vain.

Miss Bai, who was raised in the deep boudoir, didn't know it, and asked, "Will they be so insidious?" ”

Chu Jiangqiu smiled reluctantly, suddenly listened with his ears sideways, and said, "Who is singing, so good?" ”
