Chapter 4 Absence
The girl stepped forward to call the door, and soon an elderly woman's voice came from inside the house, which made the man's eyes suddenly cold.
Something wasn't quite right, in his impression, there were only two of them living here, why were there other people's voices!
With a creaking sound, the door of the house slowly opened halfway, and a gray-haired old woman poked her head out of it, and saw two young people coming, and she didn't quite understand the situation.
She is not the owner of this house, she was just asked to watch it temporarily, with the temper of the original owner of the house, there should be no such person to come to the door.
Coughing, the old woman asked, "Two, I don't know why you came?"
The girl turned her head to look at the man and said, "Master, it's time for you to speak." ”
The man nodded to the old woman and asked, "Old man, where are the sisters who used to live here?"
When the man pointed to this question, the old woman's face panicked a lot, and she hurriedly said: "You are mistaken, there are no sisters here, only me, the old man!"
As she spoke, she leaned back, ready to close the door.
She was all taken into the eyes of the man like this, and it also made the man understand some things, what should have happened, and the old woman was the breakthrough.
Holding down the door with one hand, the man went straight in and said bluntly: "Old man, my name is Li Longchen, I am here to find the sisters of the Dugu family, we are friends." ”
Originally, she was still anxious to close the door, but after hearing Li Longchen's name, the old woman immediately stopped what she was doing and asked, "Are you really Li Longchen?"
"It's true. ”
Still suspicious, the old woman obviously didn't believe the man's words.
After thinking about it, Li Longchen said: "Old man, just let me in, as long as I see the Dugu sisters, I can prove my identity!"
After a moment of confusion, the old woman slowly opened the door, let Li Longchen and the girl in, and said, "Although I don't know if you are or not, I can only trust you now!"
Hearing this, Li Longchen suddenly felt that something was wrong, this old woman seemed to have something to say.
Just about to ask, the old woman raised her hand to interrupt his words and said, "You go with me to see Miss Xiaoyan, I don't think anyone will dare to pretend to be the name of Li Longchen, the king of the side-by-side!"
Hearing the old woman say this, Li Longchen could only laugh awkwardly, he really didn't know what to say.
All the way forward, until she came to a side house on the side, the old woman stopped.
"This is it!"
"Here?"
Very confused, Li Longchen could only smile awkwardly, and already thought that this old woman was joking.
The old woman's expression remained unchanged, she knocked on the door a few times, and said, "Xiaoyan, I'm in!"
There was no sound of answer coming from inside, and the old woman had already pushed the door in, which made Li Longchen feel even more strange.
When he was stunned, the girl stabbed his waist behind him and said, "Master, what are you doing here, let's go in and have a look!"
Glancing at the girl, Li Longchen nodded, and followed the old woman in.
The layout inside the side room is completely incommensurate with the outside, from the outside, it looks like a place where the poor live, and the inside is definitely the layout of the rich and noble.
On the innermost bed with tulle hanging, there was a girl dressed in white, her eyes never opened, as if she was asleep, but her sleep was not sweet, so that her two beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned.
Even though she was blocked by tulle, Li Longchen still recognized the girl at a glance, she was the younger sister of the two daughters, Duguyan.
Seeing her sick look, Li Longchen couldn't help but feel anxious.
"What's wrong with Xiaoyan?"
The old woman shook her head, "I don't know, Miss Yan has an urgent matter to go out, so I asked Miss Xiaoyan to take care of me, who knows, Miss Yan has only been gone for a few days, and Miss Xiaoyan will fall ill, and she can't afford to be sick." ”
"If Miss Yan doesn't come back, I'm afraid Xiaoyan won't be able to hold on, Childe, if you are really friends with the Xiaoyan sisters, please save Xiaoyan!"
After receiving such an explanation, Li Longchen's first feeling in his heart was incredible, how could his sister Dugu Yan go far away, he couldn't figure it out.
However, this question is not the point, the focus is still on how to cure Duguyan's illness.
Walking to the side of the bed and raising his hand to lift the tulle, he saw how pale Duguyan's face was at this time, so white that it was distressing.
"Didn't you go to see Lang Zhong?"
The old woman said: "Xiaoyan said that she had already gone to see it, but it was useless, she had to wait for Miss Yan to come back!"
Sitting down on the edge of the bed, Li Longchen was about to help Dugu Yan up, but his outstretched hand was stopped by two small snakes that came out of the thin quilt.
"Master, beware of poisonous snakes!"
Slightly surprised, the girl standing next to Li Longchen was about to catch the two little snakes.
Seeing these things beside Dugu Yan, Li Longchen was not surprised in his heart, so he shook his head to stop the girl's movements, and stretched out his hand to the two little snakes and stroked them gently.
He still remembered that when they first met, Duguyan also released these two little snakes, and these two little snakes were called Xiaoqing and Xiaobai.
"Do you remember me, if you do, don't get in the way of me waking Xiaoyan up, okay?"
Talking to a snake may seem like a very stupid thing to do, but here, there is no sense of discord.
The two little snakes also rubbed their bodies on Li Longchen's hands, as if remembering Li Longchen's smell, and then got back into the quilt.
The smart little snake gave way, Li Longchen smiled slightly, and immediately helped Duguyan up, pressed one hand on her back, and slowly injected his strength into it.
Seeing Li Longchen using his strength, the girl was suddenly anxious and said, "Master, your injuries have not fully recovered, you can't do this!"
Glancing at the girl with a slightly reproachful gaze, Li Longchen shook his head and said, "It's okay, use it a little, it's not in the way." ”
The master had already said this, and the girl had to puff out her mouth and watch him silently.
Whether it will have an impact or not, she doesn't know, it all depends on Li Longchen's mouth, but she doesn't know if Li Longchen is telling the truth.
After a long time, a wave of heat emanated, making the side room feel warm, and Duguyan and Li Longchen were already sweating on their foreheads.
Dugu Yan sweated, that was because the cold on her body was slowly discharged, which was a sign of her physical condition, but Li Longchen sweated because her body was overloaded, and she couldn't bear it.
"The sequelae of Yi Miji Jue are really too big, I still haven't recovered much after a year of cultivation, and Ren Du's second pulse has been seriously injured, which has made me weak to this point!"
When he finally finished his work, Li Longchen couldn't help but say this in his heart.
In the last battle before retreating, in order to defeat the strong enemy, he had to use a powerful secret, although the final victory over the enemy, the consequence was that he was left with hidden dangers that were not easy to recover, and the injury of Ren Du's second pulse was one of them.
