Chapter 46: Yao Gongzi

"Is Third Master Qiao feeling better?" Xia He left with dishes and chopsticks, and Qiao Xiya walked into the house with Chunling.

In the past two days of rest in Huimeng County, Qiao Xi Yazai carefully reviewed everything that happened after she stepped into Huizhou, and those strange feelings that lingered in her heart countless times and were fleeting also captured the direction. She needed to question Qiao San to confirm some of her conjectures.

"Thank you girl for saving my life, I'm much better." Qiao San got up and arched his hand to Qiao Xiya.

"Sit down." Qiao Xiya raised her hand and helped Chunling to sit on the rattan chair under the window.

There are many empty houses like this in Huimeng County, where there are many empty houses with tables and chairs, and Qiao Xiya and the others chose a simple second courtyard to settle down and rest.

Seeing Qiao San sit down, Qiao Xiya glanced at Chunling, Chunling understood, walked out of the house, and closed the door.

"Third Master Qiao, can you tell me about the incident after the sneak attack at the entrance of the alley that day?" Qiao Xiya took a sip of tea, and looked at Qiao San calmly with a pair of apricot eyes.

"That day, at the mouth of the alley, I didn't know what was going on, and I was knocked unconscious." Qiao San nodded, looked at the dappled sunlight outside the window, and said slowly, "When I wake up, I will already be on that mountain." There were a lot of men in dark robes and masks, and when they saw that I was awake, they locked me up with the men they had taken up the mountain, and they called us mules. Every day, we just burn fire, boil water, burn day and night, and keep chopping wood. It's really like a mule, they can't stop, they can't stop, they stop, they will be beaten, I have seen them kill two or three people alive. Qiao San's eyes showed a hint of fear, he paused, "Once, they killed a person, they saw that I was strong and strong, so they asked me to carry the corpse and walk with them, the girl knows, I Qiao San has killed people, and I am not afraid of corpses, but when I followed them to that cave, I was really afraid." Countless corpses were piled up in the cave, many of them had turned into white bones, and the sticky corpse water stained the entire cave with stickiness, but the strange thing was that there was not a trace of rancid smell in the cave, and there was not a single fly. They told me that if I didn't listen to them, I would go there and become the same corpse. ”

Although Qiao San's words were a bit chaotic, Qiao Xiya still obtained several important information.

Qiao Xiya nodded and poured Qiao San a glass of water: "Then have you seen Yao Gongzi there?"

Qiao San squinted his eyes and thought about it carefully, and shook his head gently: "No...... The people who usually work with me are still alive, and those who are still alive are the ones you rescued. ”

"Can you let me see how they hurt you?"

"This ......" Qiao San hesitated a little, but after only a moment, he sneered, "I'm afraid it will scare the girl." ”

"It doesn't matter."

Seeing that Qiao Xiya insisted on looking, Qiao San stood up, turned around, turned his back to Qiao Xiya, and slowly took off his shirt.

Blood-red imprints were messily intertwined on Qiao San's back, resembling a twisted spider web. Qiao Xiya stretched out her hand and stroked Qiao San's back, and couldn't help but wet her eyes.

"Childe, you can't enter." Just as Qiao Xiya was about to ask Qiao San to go to Mo Haoning for some knife medicine, Chunling's voice came from outside the door.

"Why can't I go in!" Yao Mingxi's voice exploded at the door, followed by the sound of Chunling being pushed and slammed into the door frame.

"The girl has explained that no one can come in." Chunling's voice was a little crying, obviously the collision just now was not light.

"Get out of here!" Yao Mingxi impatiently pulled Chunling over, and raised his hand to push the door.

"Yao Gongzi has such a big temper." Before Yao Mingxi's hand touched the door, the door was opened from the inside, Qiao Xiya stood at the door with a frosty face, looking coldly at Yao Mingxi, who was red-faced.

"I'm ......" Yao Mingxi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed twice, "I'm also afraid that Xiya will be in danger for you." ”

"With Third Master Qiao here, what danger can I encounter?" Qiao Xiya stepped out of the room and sneered, "Why did Yao Gongzi hurt my maid?" ”

"You ......" Yao Mingxi was speechless for a while, "You two are lonely and widowed, and I ......"

"What? Yao Gongzi can't trust me? Qiao Xiya sneered, "I'm just checking on Qiao Sanye's injury, why did Yao Gongzi think of pickling?" Qiao Xiya tilted her head and hooked the corners of her mouth to look at Yao Mingxi, who was a little distracted. Seeing that Yao Ming was speechless, Qiao Xiya chuckled lightly and changed her tone, "Just now Qiao Sanye told me that after he was taken captive up the mountain, he was beaten by someone, I don't know if Yao Gongzi was also beaten?" ”

"Xiya, don't you know, those people are really beating to death!" mentioned being beaten, Yao Mingxi's son-in-law had red circles in his eyes. I saw Yao Mingxi say, quickly took off his clothes, and the blood-red marks were extremely dazzling on his white chest.

Qiao San's injury is almost the same as Yao Mingxi's injury, but it is a little different, and it is this little difference that breaks all Qiao Xiya's illusions and assumptions. All luck is shattering. Qiao Xiya's heart was like ashes at this time.

"Chunling," the piercing coldness in Qiao Xiya's heart crawled through all the pores, "help them clean their wounds, and go to Bai Gongzi later to ask for some knife wound medicine to give them medicine." With that, Qiao Xiya turned around and left, without looking at Yao Mingxi for a second time.

Qiao Xiya walked into the courtyard along the corridor with a heavy heart, and met Xia He and Chu Yun who were boiling herbs in the courtyard.

"Girl, what's the matter? What about Chunling? Xia He dropped the pu fan and greeted Qiao Xiya, "Why is the girl's face so pale." ”

"I'm fine. The Seven Highnesses are available? Qiao Xiya asked in a low voice.

"It's in the house." Xia He helped Qiao Xiya to the door, pushed the door in, and Mo Haoning was brushing and writing something in front of the table.

"See the Seventh Highness." Qiao Xiya entered the house and bowed her head.

"Oops, get up, get up, get up." Mo Haoning hurriedly helped Qiao Xiya up, Xia He stood up and retreated to the door.

"In the future, there will be no such vain courtesy between you and me." Mo Haoning falsely invited Qiao Xiya to sit down, "Looking for me something?" Seeing that Qiao Xiya wanted to speak and stopped, Mo Haoning broke Qiao Xiya's intention.

"I want to confirm one thing with Your Highness." Qiao Xiya's gaze was heavy and serious.

"You say." Seeing Qiao Xiya's serious face, Mo Haoning also straightened his face and sat upright.

"He asked you for a sachet before, but is that the case?" Qiao Xiya's voice trembled a little. She wanted to know the answer, but she was afraid to know it.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time." Mo Haoning showed a relieved smile, "The sachet given to him was not recognized by the owner of the teahouse. ”
