Volume 1, Corruption Investigation
Luo Kui noticed Qu Yuansan's discomfort and smiled: "You are underestimating yourself."
Qu Yuansan breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his hand, and said gratefully: "I have to thank you and Su Zi for sending these five phoenix feathers to me back then so that I can achieve today's cultivation."
Luo Kui smiled indifferently: "You are destined to be the strange book of Feng Ling Realm, and Su Zi and I are just icing on the cake."
Before he finished speaking, a fishy sweetness surged in Luo Kui's throat. She tried hard to suppress it and sighed in her heart. It turns out that today is different from the past. If Su Zi knew that she was beaten to death, she would definitely regret not staying in Qingzhou to watch the fun. Thinking of this, she chuckled and said, "You are not allowed to talk about today to Su Zi."
Qu Yuangan laughed and said, "If Suzi knew that you were beaten to death, I would rather let the beauty not look at it than run back to see your joke. Now that I have to watch this joke, I have to tell him the previous one and make him regret it."
Luo Kui laughed so hard that it touched the hidden wound on her body, so she was so painful that she was gasping for air conditioning, and hissing between her teeth: "Then you send him a letter quickly. It's too late to come back. If my injury heals without authorization, he should not regret it."
Qu Yuansan smiled and said, "You still have the strength to joke, but the injury is not serious."
Jing Mo leaned against the car, his body was covered in blood, and he was hanging in one breath, and he was still sleeping. Luo Kui stroked his face and held back his heartache and said, "My injury is not tight, but Jing Mo's injury is quite tricky."
After looking at Jing Mo, Qu Yuansan sighed: "I am useless. The Qu family has committed many evil deeds, but I am powerless to stop it."
Luo Kui patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't cling to yourself for any matters that have nothing to do with you. Do you think you have not been responsible for too much debt or heavy enough?"
Qu Yuansan had a girl in her heart, with her eyes and smiled on her lips, as if she was looking at him. He was sweet in his heart, and a faint and bitter smile on his face. He slowly said, "I owed her debts, it's hard to pay back." He raised his eyes: "I heard that Mr. Xu was going to send her into the palace, but is it true."
Luo Kui was depressed for a moment, and the news was naturally certain. Her portrait was sent to the palace a month ago. She was young and beautiful, and she had never added a new person for a long time. His Majesty naturally fell in love with her at a glance and only chose a suitable time to send it in. But Luo Kui couldn't bear to say this. She smiled: "Who did you hear that you are wrong? Xu Hou treated the third girl like a pearl or a treasure. How could he bear to send it to the palace to suffer? It was just to dispel King Lin's idea and deliberately released rumors."
Qu Yuansan shook his head: "You don't have to hide it from me, I know it. It is expected that I and her will have a great deal of today. The Qu family has been doing so many evils over the years. Even if I tried my best, I would have only paid back one or two. Now I am unhappy in retribution and finally come."
Luo Kui looked at him and silent for a long time before comforting him: "Although there are many wishes in this world that are not yours and me, and many powers that are not yours and me can change, but if you want to be with whom, you can always follow your own heart." She paused slightly and smiled and said, "Yuan Shen, the dust between you and her has not yet settled, so it is still too early to be discouraged. If you saved me today, you should worry about what hardship you will suffer when you go back."
When he walked to the fence at a fork in the road, the night-time officer shouted loudly and the carriage stopped suddenly. His son had just passed by. If he had not been a man of great origin, he would have to be beaten to a board when he went out at night and was taken by the officer.
Du Heng was ready, so he jumped out of the car, said a lot of words to the officer with a smile on his face, and stuffed a lot of silver into the hands of the two officers. Then they looked at each other, moved away with difficulty, and the carriage squeaked away again, disappearing into the vast night.
As soon as we entered the gate of Shui House, the group of people were lightly, but there were still many people and noisy. They alarmed the birds resting on the treetops, flapping their wings, and groups of people supporting the elderly and young soared into the sky. The crown of the tree shook violently, and the dead branches and leaves fell down like raindrops.
Such a huge movement in the yard naturally woke up the sleeping people in the house. The originally dark room suddenly opened, and Qu Lian and Ding Xiang came out together.
Seeing this scene, Qu Yuansan couldn't help but look slightly darker, and he was almost biting the tip of his tongue in shock: "Little sister, why are you here?"
Luo Kui and others were all covered in blood, even Qu Yuansan. Qu Lian was so scared that her face was pale and trembled all over. She had been kept in the deep boudoir since she was a child and had never seen such a bloody killing scene. She covered her mouth and almost forgot to breathe.
After being stunned for a long time, Qu Lian's eyes were filled with tears, and her voice trembled: "Big, brother, I, I'm here to play with Luo Kui. Brother, why are you here?"
The night breeze was slightly cool, and it felt a little painful when she brushed past Luo Kui's eyes. She knew that some things could not be hidden, and even if they could not be hidden for a long time. Qu Lian saw the bloody tonight, then this thin layer of window paper was pierced. Luo Kui turned to Du Heng and ordered: "You stay here first, I have something to explain."
Qu Yuansan gently stroked Qu Lian's shoulder, his eyes full of care: "Little sister, you haven't come back so late. The person who served you said you have been in the water house in the west of the city for several days. I'm worried and came out to find you. It's late at night. Let's go back with my elder brother. My father should be anxious."
Seeing Qu Lian staring at her, Luo Kui knew that she was worried about Jing Mo and that she would not leave easily without seeing him safe and that Qu Lian would not leave easily, so she shook her hand and said, "It's cold at night, what's the matter going into the room and saying it."
Qu Yuansan stepped forward and stopped Qu Lian: "You are a girl's house, and you don't go home so late. My father will be worried. Let's go and go back with your elder brother."
Qu Lian looked at Jing Mo, and saw that his injuries were heavier than before. His white shirt was stained with blood. It was mottled like red plums falling into the snow. He still couldn't help but seep out of her mouth. She felt heartbroken and couldn't bear it. She took a deep breath and shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, I won't leave."
"If you don't leave now, your father will come to catch you tomorrow, so you can't think about it for a second step from the mansion. You have to think it through." Qu Yuansan's palm was so fine that he missed a trick, but he couldn't watch Qu Lian's heart. He looked at her with care and worry. She was so innocent and unworldly. If she was involved, she would probably cause a huge disaster. But he sighed silently, but who could really protect herself in this chaotic world?
Qu Lian just pulled Jing Mo around, watching him breathing hard in his sleep, watching his head and beads of sweat slid down, sticking to the scattered hair on his temples, forming a curly knot. He also saw his face gradually pale, and even his breathing became slim, and tears couldn't help falling down: "No, I won't leave."
Qu Yuanguan let out a long sigh, knowing that Qu Lian was confused at this time, for fear that he would backfire if he was forced into a hurry, so he pushed her further, so he could only think of another way to pull her out of the vortex. He gave a gift to Luo Kui: "Q Lian, I'll have to worry about you."
"Don't worry if I'm here." Luo Kui nodded slightly. She looked at Qu Yuansan leaving without looking back. She couldn't help but feel mixed feelings. He knew the grievances and grievances between him and the Qu family, but his sincere heart was like a cup of tea, just as warm. Now she dragged Qu Lian into the vortex, and she felt even more ashamed of his sincerity.
Jing Mo lay on his back on the bed, and the blood was spreading out from his mouth became more and more abundant. He kept covering it with a towel, but he couldn't cover it. The pots of clean water washing the towel next to him were dyed into a pool of blood.
What's even more terrible is that the two legs that Jing Mo was injured were not only unable to move, but there was no scar or a drop of blood when he looked up. Luo Kui's eyebrows were frowning. Among these strange legs, there was a marrow-absorbing poison, which seemed to be without any wounds, but the deep bone marrow was eroded by poisons. At the mildest, it was full of holes. From now on, it would be lying on the bed for the rest of his life, and at worst, it would be exhausted and died.
She had experienced this scene. Her father died in Su Zi's arms back then, and her grandfather died in Jing Mo's arms back later. Now it is a life-and-death separation that cannot be escaped, and the transition of the years that cannot be escaped, which has made her experience such a disaster again.
The sharp nails were deeply clenched into the flesh. Luo Kui's eyes looked like a moment. She wanted to heal Jing Mo's injuries, but it was not convenient to be outsiders. She immediately raised her eyes and looked at Qu Lian and said, "I hope you can go to Jing Mo's room to find him a clean dress. This bloody thing will cause even more troublesome if it catches colder."
Seeing Qu Lian go out, Luo Kui ordered to the dumb little chicken's cuckold: "There is a black jade bottle in the crabapple flower box on the dressing table, take it out."
Dingxiang came to her senses, responded in a hurry, and took out a dark jade bottle with trembling hands: "Girl, is that right?"
Luo Kui nodded: "Let me." She poured out three pills from the bottle, which were snow-white and round and fragrant. Her hand paused slightly, looked at Du Heng and said, "Get a knife and get my blood."
Du Heng suddenly knelt in front of the bed and said in tears: "Master, Master, you have been injured, just use your subordinates."
Luo Kui shook her head: "Jing Mo was infected with marrow-absorbing poison, and your blood is not suitable."
Du Heng kowtowed fiercely: "Master, Master Mo's life is important, but Master Mo's life is even more important. I will not be able to obey my subordinates."
Luo Kui said slowly: "Just take some blood, it will hurt your life. You don't have to worry. Go back to the senior brother of the sect to get more medicine. I'll be fine if I take it."
Du Heng knew that it was useless to say more, so he had to take out a carved short blade from his waist, cut a shallow blood mark between Luo Kui's wrist, then pinched it, wiped the blood marks with his two fingers, and a ball of red mist drilled out from his fingers. He clamped it with his two fingers, put it in a bowl of ice jade storm, blended with three balls of elixir, melted it with the cold air, and fed it into Jing Mo's mouth one spoonful after another.
Luo Kui's face was white, but her cheeks were slightly red, as if the shadow of red plum blossoms was reflected in the snow. She took a breath and said calmly: "You go back, go to the senior brother of the sect to ask for medicine."
