Twenty-six.

At dusk, the remnant sun is like blood.

In the courtyard, the calm pond reflects the sunset in the sky.

From time to time, a ripple spreads, causing a ripple on the entire calm surface of the water, and then it becomes calm, and the willow branches fluttering in the wind are reflected on the mirror-like surface of the water.

Unfortunately, the courtyard was empty at the moment, and no one admired the quiet landscape.

In the inner courtyard, sitting next to Chu Qinghe, Wan Wan looked at Chu Qinghe with a little puzzlement: "Obviously, the other courtyard is quieter now, why do you come to this inner courtyard when it's time to cook?" ”

These days, Wan Wan also discovered a special habit of Chu Qinghe.

It doesn't matter if you get up late in the morning, but at noon and in the evening, when Qu Feiyan and a few people are cooking, Chu Qinghe will move from the room or the courtyard to the inner courtyard.

Facing Wan Wan's question, before Chu Qinghe could respond, Yin Ji, the jellyfish on the side, smiled and said, "Because there is the smell of fireworks." ”

"The smell of fireworks?"

Listening to what the jellyfish Yin Ji said, the confusion on Wan Wan's face did not decrease but increased.

Seeing this, the jellyfish Yin Ji spoke: "Qinghe once said, "The fireworks in the world are the most soothing to people's hearts", and the smell of firewood burning when cooking is a kind of fireworks, so Qinghe will like to be in this inner courtyard.

Putting what the jellyfish Yin Ji said in her eyes, Wan Wan glanced at Chu Qinghe with a strange expression.

Obviously, it was a little difficult to understand Chu Qinghe's special hobby.

Seeing this, Yin Ji and Chu Qinghe, the jellyfish on the side, did not continue to explain.

In the courtyard of Chu Qinghe, many things take time to cultivate.

After a long time, they have become accustomed to everything in this yard, and then they will naturally know the taste of the marrow.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, Chu Qinghe suddenly raised his head.

Immediately afterwards, the jellyfish Yin Ji also felt the same thing, and looked at each other in the air in two directions.

When looking at the four bodies moving quickly from the north of the city and the south of the city from far and near under the warm sunlight, the jellyfish Yin Ji couldn't help but smile and said: "Sister Yue and Sister Dongfang have a tacit understanding, and they actually rushed over together. ”

After the undefeated in the East moved the base camp from the Black Wood Cliff to the Bright Peak, the distance from Yushui City was similar to the distance between the Flower Shifting Palace and Yushui City.

At the same time and distance, it is not so strange that several people can meet together on the way here.

Hearing this, Qu Feiyan, who was still chopping vegetables in the kitchen just now, came to the kitchen door with a kitchen knife in his hand.

Just when Qu Feiyan and the others had just arrived at the door, they happened to see Ying Yue and Dongfang Undefeated, who fell in the courtyard at almost the same time.

The moment he saw the two women, Qu Feiyan pursed his lips and squeezed out a well-behaved smile on his face, greeted him before returning to the kitchen.

It's just that after entering the kitchen, Qu Feiyan's face suddenly collapsed.

"In the next few days, there will be no good days."

A few breaths later, with Dongfang Undefeated, Invite Yue and Xue Qianxun, the four of them sat down one after another, and Lianxing and Xue Qianxun both shouted "brother-in-law" to Chu Qinghe cordially for the first time.

After several people sat down one after another, Invite Yue glanced at Dongfang Undefeated and said, "It's about the Great Ming Kingdom, why are you so active here?" ”

Dongfang Undefeated said coldly: "If you want to fight when you first came, I can accompany you now, but this time I may not have such good luck as last time." ”

Hearing Dongfang's undefeated words, Invite Yueman said disdainfully: "Ridiculous, the defeated generals still want to be brave?" Are you afraid of you? ”

Seeing the two girls who had just sat down and pinched each other, Chu Qinghe rolled his eyes and said, "Okay!" Let's stop for the night. ”

The voice came out, Dongfang Undefeated and Ying Yue glanced at each other and turned their heads one after another.

Looking at this scene, the smile on the face of the jellyfish Yin Ji couldn't help but become a little thicker.

Although Dongfang Undefeated and Invite Yue were not in the courtyard, the jellyfish Yin Ji was able to occupy the Chu Qinghe alone.

But I have to say that when the two girls have been away for a long time, the jellyfish Yin Ji will feel more or less that something is missing.

Now seeing the two of them in front of him like children fighting each other, Jellyfish Yin Ji suddenly felt that everything was complete.

When his eyes fell on Chu Qinghe, Ying Yue spoke: "As the letter said, Gongzi Yu has already been here two days ago?" ”

Chu Qinghe pointed to the courtyard opposite and said, "I'm healing now, if there is no accident, I'll come over in a while." ”

meanwhile

In the courtyard opposite Chu Qinghe's house.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng was still sitting quietly in the courtyard.

However, unlike two days ago, Bai Xiaosheng was like an ordinary old man sitting on a simple wooden bench.

At this time, the chair under Bai Xiaosheng had been replaced by a Taishi chair, and there was a wooden table in front of him.

While flipping through some of the files in his hand, he sometimes used the brush in his hand to write on some slips of paper, and then took a bamboo tube containing the notes and took a carrier pigeon from the cage next to him.

In front of the main house, which was about ten steps apart on Bai Xiaosheng's side, the four attendants accompanying Gongziyu stood quietly in front of the door motionless.

In the main house, Gongzi Yu was lying quietly on the bed at this time, his face was pale, and even his breathing stopped.

In the room, Mingyue looked at Gongzi Yu lying on the bed motionlessly, her face full of nervousness and apprehension.

I wanted to inject my true qi into Gongziyu's body to check the situation, but I was worried that it would affect Gongziyu, so I could only suppress the tension in my heart and wait.

However, at this moment, Gongzi Yu on the bed suddenly trembled.

Immediately afterwards, Zigongzi Yu's mouth began to vomit blood uncontrollably.

But unlike the dark red color of the blood spit out by normal people, the blood spit out of Gongziyu's mouth at this time was even gray in the dark red.

Seeing this scene in her eyes, Mingyuexin suddenly turned around anxiously and grabbed Gongziyu's hand, wanting to appease Gongziyu, but she didn't know if this was a normal reaction when the drug worked, and she looked a little helpless for a while.

Similarly, Bai Xiaosheng, who was in the courtyard at this time, and the attendants who belonged to Gongziyu outside the door also noticed the noise coming from the house.

And at the moment when the sound entered his ears, Bai Xiaosheng instantly flashed into the door.

The other four Gongzi Yu's attendants also turned to step forward, and the five of them all looked a little anxious across the door.

"Whoosh!"

However, just as all five of them were gathered at the door of this room, several sounds of breaking the air suddenly came from a distance and landed on the back of a man in a white robe behind Bai Xiaosheng.

As these few bursts of energy fell on the man's back, the straight man who was still standing just now snorted and fell to the ground softly.

At the same time, a snuffbox-sized bottle suddenly rolled out from under the man's cuff.

When the bottle touches the ground and rolls, it makes a slight sound.

Hearing the voice, Bai Xiaosheng, who was standing at the door, and the remaining three all turned their heads quickly.

When they saw the person who fell to the ground at this time, the expressions of several people changed greatly.

But in the next second, several people noticed that a figure suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

Who could it be if it wasn't Chu Qinghe?

When Chu Qinghe was found in the courtyard, the true qi in the bodies of the three remaining attendants at the door was running in unison.

And Bai Xiaosheng at the door was slightly stunned.

Then he glanced up at Chu Qinghe, and Bai Xiaosheng looked at the fallen servant on the ground.

When his eyes were at the bottle that had stopped rolling in his hand, Bai Xiaosheng seemed to think of something and suddenly said: "Don't do it, Chu Xiaoyou is his own person." ”

Hearing Bai Xiaosheng's voice, the true qi running in the bodies of the three people at the door stagnated for a moment.

After stopping the other three, Bai Xiaosheng took two steps forward and picked up the Dan bottle on the ground, put it under his nose and sniffed it.

But as Bai Xiaosheng inhaled gently, his brows suddenly furrowed.

Judging from the current situation, Bai Xiaosheng has roughly determined the current situation, and he also understands that Gongzi Yu's close attendant secretly poisoned everyone just now when they lost their minds because of the movement in the house.

But although there are not many colorless and tasteless poisons in the rivers and lakes, they are not few.

Although Bai Xiaosheng knows a little about medical skills, he is not proficient in it.

Although it was obvious that something was wrong with the bottle, how could you tell what poison was in it from the smell alone?

In this regard, Bai Xiaosheng quickly looked up at Chu Qinghe, who was walking towards him.

"Chu Xiaoyou, this poison?"

Hearing this, Chu Qinghe said slowly: "The autumn wind pierces the intestines. ”

Hearing the name of this poisonous smoke, Bai Xiaosheng's expression changed instantly.

The autumn wind pierces the intestines, one of the strange poisons in the rivers and lakes, although it is colorless and tasteless, but it is extremely toxic.

Even after the martial artists of the Great Grandmaster Realm are poisoned, they will be pierced by rotten bones.

As Bai Xiaosheng's expression changed greatly, there were also three other attendants at the door.

At this time, the three of them obviously played a role because of this autumn wind, and after the three of them shook their bodies lightly twice, there was an extra cloud of blue and black gas between their eyebrows.

While walking, Chu Qinghe's long sleeves flicked lightly, and several strands of energy fell on the three attendants.

After the medicine rushed into the bodies of several people along the momentum, the three attendants immediately felt that the discomfort in their bodies was quickly dissipating.

After coming back to his senses, Bai Xiaosheng immediately thought of Gongzi Yu and Mingyue Xin in the room.

Immediately, he walked a few steps quickly, pushed open the door, and said to Chu Qinghe: "Trouble Chu Xiaoyou." ”

Facing Bai Xiaosheng's words, Chu Qinghe nodded lightly.

Then he raised his feet and walked towards the room.

After Chu Qinghe entered the room, Bai Xiaosheng and the other three attendants all focused their eyes on the person on the ground.

Glancing at the attendant on the ground, who already had madness and despair in his eyes, Bai Xiaochang sighed.

"It's hard to prevent thieves day and night, it's been like this for thousands of years!"

However, compared to Bai Xiaosheng, the eyes of the other three attendants were more complicated.

Surprise, confusion, and indifference flashed in his eyes one after another.

But after a few breaths, they all turned into Sen Ran, and their killing intent was revealed.

Here, after Chu Qinghe stepped into the room, his eyes fell on Gongzi Yu for the first time.

At this time, Gongziyu's face was no longer pale in a state of suspended animation, but was flushed.

And at the center of the eyebrows, there are wisps of black air circling.

Seeing Chu Qinghe who entered the room, Mingyue's eyes lit up, but she no longer had the strength to stand up.

When he approached slowly, Chu Qinghe waved his long sleeves in the same way to remove the poison in Mingyue's heart, and then walked in front of Gongzi Yu.

After his gaze stayed on Gongziyu's face for a few breaths, Chu Qinghe raised his right hand.

As the energy in his fingertips burst out, some powder entered Gongzi Yu's body along Chu Qinghe's strength.

With the entry of these medicines, although Gongziyu's body was still trembling at this time, and the blood in his mouth was also flowing out, his face was once again pale.

At this point, Chu Qinghe spoke: "This situation will continue to last for a stick of incense in the future, and it will be good when the time is over." ”

Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Ming Yuexin hurriedly nodded respectfully and said, "Mingyue Xin thanks Master Chu." ”

"Hmm!"

After a faint reply, Chu Qinghe turned around and walked towards the door.

When he reached the opening, Chu Qinghe's voice suddenly sounded.

"When Gongziyu comes to his senses, he will recuperate for a night and then come to my yard, and by the way, you can deal with the matter."

The voice was in her ears, and Mingyuexin hurriedly agreed.

Then, after nodding to Bai Xiaosheng, Chu Qinghe dodged and left.

"Control the person and dispose of him when Childe wakes up."

"Yes!"

After a very simple conversation between the two sentences, Mingyue's heart moved her eyes to Gongziyu's body again, and she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

It's just a door away, what happened outside, with Mingyuexin's cultivation, he naturally heard it clearly, combined with what Bai Xiaosheng just said, how could Mingyuexin not guess what had just happened?

But also because of Chu Qinghe's appearance just now and the treatment of Gongzi Yu when he entered the room, it also made Mingyue's heart feel relieved.

The other side.

As Chu Qinghe returned to the inner courtyard, the jellyfish Yin Ji looked at Chu Qinghe, who looked lazy, and asked, "No wonder you let Gongzi Yu live opposite us, it turns out that you already knew that such a thing would happen?" ”

Hearing this, Chu Qinghe said angrily: "I don't know the prophet, how can I know that there is such a place?" But thinking about his identity as the head of the dragon, if an enemy comes to the door, he can also help, who would have thought that someone under him would want to take this opportunity to kill him. ”

Jellyfish Yin Ji sighed: "The people who can let Gongziyu come to you and bring them with you are all very trusted by Gongziyu, but I didn't expect to be betrayed by the most trusted person." ”

In this regard, Chu Qinghe shook his head and did not speak.

This is true even for the Undefeated East and the Invitation to the Moon.

The human heart has not been able to withstand temptation since ancient times.

There are so many things that can influence a person.

This is true even for warriors.

Not all of them are like Dongfang's undefeated people, or people with firm hearts like Gongzi Yu and Bai Xiaosheng.

Any temptation can cause a person to smile one second and draw a knife the next.

Today's thing, although unexpected, is also reasonable.
