Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Villain Dies
The so-called mother of the child is worried......
Phew, that's pretty much what it means anyway. Qiu Yan went out alone for two or three days for the first time, and Wen Tiantian was a little worried. However, she is not a person who likes to talk a lot, Qiu Yan's recovery is really good, even if she meets those two mysterious people again, she will not suffer without her holding back.
Having made up her mind, Qiu Yan began to work at home. Chop a lot of dry firewood and pile it in the kitchen, steam the steamed buns with noodles, and then cut the bacon into small pieces and put it in a bowl to preserve, wash all the vegetables and fruits bought at the mountain market in the morning and put them on the stove, and take the time to fry a few meatballs.
After dinner, he led Wen Tiantian to the kitchen to explain carefully, and told him all the trivial things in life before he went back to the house to pack up the things he wanted to bring.
Before dawn, Qiu Yan closed the courtyard door lightly and left, but Wen Tiantian, who had not slept all night, lay at the window, wrapped in a thick coat and secretly watched him go out.
"Asking what is the situation in the world only makes people stay up all night and want to vomit. Sweet girl, you can't do it! β
It's not like they're gone, so why are you reluctant?
"I'm worried about him...... Qiu Yan endured every time she was injured, and laughed to make me happy, which made me feel distressed when I thought about it. β
"You are a typical lovesickness, you can't see people at a glance and worry about it. He doesn't have to worry about what he does without you when he goes out this time, is he really a good bully when he is Qiu Gongzi? You know, when he was rampant and admired, you were still studying at home, and you didn't understand anything! β
The dead ghost counted unceremoniously, and his mouth was very poisonous.
"You wait, Ye Shiyuan has a lot of relationship with him, if those two mysterious people really dare to do something to his friend, they will definitely be unlucky in the past two days."
These words are by no means unfounded, he can see that Qiu Yan does not like comfort in his bones, and Wen Tiantian's salted fish-like life is not suitable for him at all.
This man is not a pond fish, he was born to soar in the vastness.
"Childe, you're here."
Two men in black invited the people into the house and guarded the door vigilantly.
The two people in the inner room immediately became vigilant when they heard the movement outside, and when they saw a man dressed in white with an indifferent look walk in, the tense atmosphere suddenly dissipated.
"Childe?"
The woman sitting on the edge of the bed put down the medicine bowl in her hand and got up to salute. Qiu Yan raised his hand slightly: "There is no need to see outside, I just came to see how he recovered." β
Seeing this, the woman respectfully withdrew from the inner room.
"How's it going, is the wound still bleeding?"
Gently pulling away the clothes on his chest, the wound was wrapped in gauze, and no blood was oozing out.
"Much better, I'll be able to try to get out of bed in a few days." The man's face was pale, and he was still weak when he spoke, "Zihe told me about you before leaving, I really didn't expect you to end up in such a place, the world is unpredictable." β
"Bad luck!" Qiu Yan picked up the bowl and slowly fed him medicine with a small spoon, "Shi Yuan, has any killer come to you recently?" It's not a big town, and there aren't many inns, so they should have found out. β
"If you say this, I'm not sleepy." Ye Shiyuan struggled to open his eyes and glared at him, "Are you cheating on me?" β
"Two mysterious people came in the middle of the night the night before yesterday to inquire about my news, if it weren't for the cleverness of the people left by Su Zihe, I would be dead by now."
"Blame me?" Qiu Yan frowned and said, "Didn't you mess with anyone yourself?" β
"The key is here, I don't know those two guys at all, but I accidentally met him and glanced at him, who knows what is wrong with these two people's brains, it is a killing move, so I don't even have a chance to fight back."
"I received a message from Su Zihe before, and I knew that he was also in Budong Town, so I ran to him with my last breath. Fortunately, those two people are confident enough to kill me with one move, otherwise I will definitely be dismantled if I catch up. β
After saying a lot in one breath, Ye Shiyuan couldn't help coughing again and again, and a faint bloodshot oozed from the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that I'm not the only one who is unlucky, and I'm relieved to hear that you are so miserable."
Ye Shiyuan gasped for breath and didn't forget to glare at him.
"Those two people are not stupid, I pinched my fingers and counted that they might come back today. So I'll watch over you tonight, and you can sleep in peace. β
With him there, Ye Shiyuan suddenly felt that he had a backer, and he was in a good mood, and he tried to raise his arm to take the medicine bowl and drink it all.
"I'm relieved to have your words, and when I return to the capital after I recover from my injury, I will definitely go to Su Zihe to do some work and help you do something to repay your favor."
"You don't have to return the favor, after all, I revealed your news to them in the Lu Mansion. As for the fact that they were instructed to kill you, do you need me to inform Zihe to help you investigate? β
"No need. If it's a vendetta, I probably understand what's going on in my heart, and I'll solve it myself when I get back, and you're busy. β
"Qiu Yan, the inspector Zhang Yu will be able to arrive this afternoon, Su Zihe asked him to investigate the Lu family, what do you think?"
This is obviously to expose the Lu family's old background, it seems that Zihe's side should have known about him and Wen Tiantian being bullied in the Lu Mansion, and this time he sent someone to take revenge.
"Don't look at it. After killing those two killers, I personally went to find Zhang Yu, the Lu family has been entrenched in the town for decades and has too deep roots, so I may not take him, the inspector sent by the imperial court, in my eyes, so that they will not fall into passivity. β
"You can recuperate here and recover as soon as possible and return to the capital. Su Zihe has been under a lot of pressure recently, and there is a lack of helpers around him, so you take the opportunity to recuperate and give him a hand. β
During the conversation, Qiu Yan skillfully helped him change the medicine, and learned Wen Tiantian's technique for acupuncture treatment. Feeding Ye Shiyuan the small pill that was stuffed into Wen Tiantian's arms before leaving, Qiu Yan left with confidence.
I found a restaurant at the door of the inn to have a quick bite to eat, and then I found a corner in the hall where no one was paying attention and waited for the mysterious person to appear.
"Have you heard, someone from the court is here today."
"You've heard that, too? Some people say that it is related to the haunting of the Lu family's mansion, and they don't know if it's true or not. β
"What's really fake, didn't people post notices to explain that they were spreading rumors."
"He said you believed it? Don't be naΓ―ve! β
Qiu Yan was not interested in these gossips, he had already probed every corpse when he led Wen Tiantian to the Lu family's courtyard, and he had left enough evidence in his hands. When Zhang Yu investigates, he only needs to poke out these evidences, which can become a heavy straw that crushes the Lu family.
The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, even if Lu Zhaoyan provokes Su Zihe, he will not suffer such a catastrophe in a short period of time, after all, Su Yushi has always waited until nine out of ten to make a move, unlike his vigorous and resolute style of playing.
Sitting bored in the corner staring at the crowd coming and going, Qiu Yan ordered a pot of tea and drank it slowly. It took more than an hour for him to find a young man in a black robe who was not suspicious in his behavior when the guests who came in and out of the inn came and went.
The young man asked for a room, paid the deposit, and went upstairs with his luggage.
The slender fingers threw the teacup on the table, Qiu Yan yawned and stood up: "Little Er, settle the bill." β
When the shopkeeper heard this, he trotted over, and the man in white who had just leaned back on the chair to drink tea was gone, and there were two taels of broken silver on the table.
"What a weirdo."
After receiving the money, the shopkeeper muttered a few words and happily entertained the other guests with a teapot and a cup.
In late autumn, the temperature drops quickly after the sun sets. The bustling streets are gradually deserted, people go home early to cook, and smoke rises from every house in the remote town.
Sitting on the roof, the man in white with an indifferent expression quietly looked at the fireworks in the world through the last light of the sunset, and the figure of the girl shaking his head crossed his heart.
It's time for her to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, right? Will the girl take advantage of him to go out and secretly play hot pot at home?
A dark shadow flashed in the corner of his eye, and the cranky thoughts that had just emerged were interrupted. Qiu Yan looked sideways, the lights in Ye Shiyuan's house were still on, and the kid seemed to be waiting for the mysterious person to appear just like him.
"Ye Shiyuan, I didn't expect you to hide here."
A hoarse and difficult voice sounded in the room, and Ye Shiyuan, who was half-lying on the bed, glanced at the woman who was knocked unconscious, and a faint smile appeared on his pale face.
"It's him, it's accurate."
Sometimes he really admires Qiu Yan from the bottom of his heart, he doesn't fight unprepared battles, and he never wastes any more energy.
"Who?"
The mysterious man's eyelids jumped, and he turned back instantly. A handsome boy dressed in white paced slowly outside the door, his small golden mask just covering the scars on his face.
"I forgot about it after only a few days of not seeing me, you don't have a good memory."
The mysterious man squinted slightly: "Young Master Qiu, we let you go in the Lu family out of respect, it doesn't mean that we won't kill you in the future!" I advise you not to worry about such idle matters. β
Qiu Yan leaned against the door with his hands on his chest, blinked innocently, and put on a good show: "When did I say that I was going to be nosy?" You have revenge today, you have revenge and grievances, I just passed by, curious to watch, you please. β
Although the rumored Qiu Gongzi in the rivers and lakes is jealous and hateful, he himself is not a chivalrous man who speaks seriously, and the mysterious man knows it but does not dare to be careless. This man is elusive and does things out of common sense, and it is difficult to guess what his position is until the end.
"In that case, I'll go down to work."
The mysterious man's voice fell, and a dark light suddenly flashed in his hand. In the blink of an eye, the cold and sharp heart-piercing piercing stab had already arrived in front of Ye Shiyuan.
Bite!
A flash of silver light shot out at the same time, and the piercing heart piercing was slammed down in front of Ye Shiyuan's forehead.
"Autumn Prince!"
"I'm sorry, your weapon seems to be rare, I'm a little curious." After speaking, Qiu Yan slowly walked to the side of the bed and bent down to pick up the steel needle on the ground and inserted it back into his waist, then took the handkerchief next to Ye Shiyuan's pillow and padded it in his hand, picked up the half-arm-length piercing thorn, and looked left and right.
And Ye Shiyuan, who was on the hospital bed, always stared at his movements, and secretly said that after Qiu Yan passed the test of life and death, except for a scar on his face, his whole personality had not changed much, but he was less angry and domineering, and more relaxed when he was young.
Seeing him play with the piercing thorn like a child, an inexplicable anger rose in the mysterious person's heart.
"Young Master Qiu, I'm doing business, please don't make trouble!"
Burst.
Ye Shiyuan on the bed suddenly couldn't hold back, lowered his head and laughed tremblingly.
Qiu Yan glanced at him speechlessly, and shook his head slightly: "That's it, I still have something to do." I'll take you back and study it slowly, so let's fight it first. β
Placing the heart piercing thorn on the side of the bed, a white figure appeared in front of the mysterious person in an instant, and the distance between the two shrank sharply.
It's so fast!
The mysterious man's pupils dilated suddenly, and he could feel that Qiu Yan's skills had improved rapidly in just a few days, and he was like two people when he was in the Lu family.
"You're distracted."
With a punch rushing out, the mysterious man couldn't dodge and was knocked straight out, turning in the air four or five times in a row before he stabilized his body, and he could stop in the courtyard.
The blood dripping from the corner of his mouth merged with the black clothes on his body.
"You're not human!"
Ay? If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, why do you still scold people?
The mysterious man's hoarse voice was filled with disbelief in shock: "You also received a slap from me before, it is impossible for a normal person to recover so quickly!" β
Qiu Yan walked out of the house slowly, chuckled, and said, "A girl told me that the villain died from talking too much. The next time you get into a fight, remember to talk less and save yourself more energy so that you don't fall into disadvantage. β
When the words fell, he quickly stretched out his right hand without looking back, and the powerful internal force condensed in his palm instantly exploded!
A black shadow screamed and was knocked away, and fell to the ground with a loud bang.
Blood spurted wildly, and the black shadow struggled a few times and lay on the ground, barely getting up.
The first moon climbed the branches, and the silver-white moonlight scattered, covering the small courtyard with a hazy veil. The man in white had a long and jade body, and his black hair was a little messy by the cold autumn wind, but he didn't care at all, and continued to walk towards the mysterious man calmly.
One step, two steps.
The sound of footsteps seemed to strike at the mysterious man's heart, and it was only then that he realized what a stupid mistake he had made.
