Chapter 78 The battle between the lord, the hunter and the fox(2/2)
Perhaps it would be more dangerous to stay by his side, but Chen Baiqi might rather stay with him than the people in Beiwai Alley who are completely unsure of the situation because of the various grudges and grievances in the past.
around.
It was late at night and cold, and she was seriously injured. In a completely unfamiliar and dangerous environment, she had to be vigilant and careful every step she took.
She did not believe that the Queen would let her go like this. Although he did not restrict her freedom, he must be confident that she would never escape.
Indeed, after confirming that this was the Beiwai Alley that Mengchangjun had been unable to capture for a long time, she also felt that it was not appropriate for her to act rashly now.
Thinking about it, he was actually looking forward to her trying to "escape", because then he would be able to see her embarrassment and pity due to her failure.
This was the first time that Hou Qing met someone who knew current affairs like this.
"That's good." He glanced at her meaningfully.
In fact, when she woke up, Hou Qing felt strange. She was too calm when she was awake, but when facing him, her attitude was different from ordinary people.
He knew what kind of impression his appearance could create on others, but she was not affected at all. She was even more wary and vigilant, as if she knew what kind of person he was.
She didn't seem to be in a hurry to know his identity, why he abducted her who was seriously injured, and she didn't even ask her about her circumstances immediately.
What's even more incomprehensible is that she is more wary of the environment she is in than him who has used some method on her who is unconscious.
Her words, demeanor, actions, and even some of her choices all revealed a hint of familiarity and clarity about him.
I don't know whether to call her stupid... or smart.
But it is undeniable that Hou Qing found that he did not want to let her die immediately.
Because she has secrets, he will always give her some sideways glances and "preferential treatment".
"The whirling soul-stirring technique has never failed since it started. How did you wake up?"
The two of them chatted casually while walking.
"Wake up with pain."
Chen Bai wrinkled his face and pointed at his injury.
Hou Qing nodded suddenly and suddenly said: "Do you know medicine?"
Chen Baiqi wanted to roll his eyes, but he didn't know where the flaw was exposed and he saw through it.
"How did you tell?"
Hou Qing raised his eyes slightly and said in a slow tone: "When you checked the injury, your movements were very standard, and you knew what actions could relieve the injury. You were even sure that the medicine given to you was not poison."
Chen Baiqi thought about it, and it seemed that her previous performance was indeed what he said.
If, according to other people's estimates, he had been abducted for no apparent reason, and a kind of medicinal powder was applied to his waist and abdomen, he would have immediately suspected that it was something harmful.
She was so determined and relaxed that he could see the difference in her.
"Who did you learn your medical skills from?"
Chen Baiqi's techniques were naturally learned when he was hanging out with Mr. Xiang Bo, while other knowledge was learned from the system.
Neither of them can be said, so she can only talk nonsense again.
"I studied Taoism in the academy."
After hearing this, Hou Qing stopped, turned his head, and smiled extremely dazzlingly.
He was half a head taller than "Chen Huanxian", so he needed to look down when looking at her. He looked at Chen Baiqi's innocent face that showed no nonsense at all, and his pair of exquisite eyes, which were focused with clear waves, light and longing, and suddenly fell asleep.
There is emotion, but it turns out to be ruthlessness.
His hand touched her face. The temperature on his hand was warmer than Chen Baiqi's pale face, but it made her skin shiver.
Because at that moment, she felt the ghostly cries and vicious malice coming from him.
It was so deep and terrifying that it felt like it could tear her fragile little body into pieces at any time.
"Are you really sure that I won't kill you?"
Hell, even the self-identification has changed.
Fortunately, the anger value has not increased, and it is estimated that it will not turn black for the time being.
Chen Baiqi pinched her chin and could not avoid his eyes, but in this case, she still did not show resistance or cowardice.
"If you wanted to kill me, you wouldn't have kept me here until now."
Chen Baiqi is not naive.
She is even sophisticated and cunning.
You will not be deceived by his eyes or face, because his so-called kindness will only be reserved for those who are valuable.
So after hearing that he asked the whirling soul to unlock her soul-obsessing spell, and even revealed the conversation to her in a semi-suspicious situation, she believed that he would not kill her for the time being.
Perhaps it was because of Lord Mengchang, or perhaps it was because of her status as a disciple of Yuelu Academy. In short, he believed that her "living" could earn him greater benefits than her "death".
Hou Qing's eyes suddenly became very dark.
Once is an accident, but twice is worthy of further investigation.
"It seems to make sense, but...it's surprising that the young man knows so well."
Chen Baiqi is already a dead pig and is not afraid of being burned.
She blinked, her antelope-like eyes and her finely interlaced eyelashes fluttered, once again showing the innocence of her natural talent.
"I heard you say that you don't want Mr. Mengchang to die, so you should keep me to negotiate terms with Mr. Mengchang." She thought that she couldn't appear too stupid, lest the Queen would think that keeping someone too stupid would be a burden.
He can't seem too smart. What if he thinks she knows too much and ends her directly.
Therefore, she found a reason for her current reliance that sounded reasonable at first, but seemed too far-fetched after careful consideration.
Hou Qing let her go.
"I just feel that his death is not good for me, but I don't think it is a good thing for him to be alive." Hou Qing turned his eyes away, and the droplets of blood jade on his forehead made his forehead look like a full moon, gentle but cold.
Chen Baiqi grinned a pale and sickly smile: "Because he is not an easy person to control, right?"
Hou Qing glanced at her with a smile but did not answer.
"You just said that a certain person will use you to negotiate terms with Mr. Mengchang. What do you think you are worth in his mind?"
Chen Baiqi was stunned for a moment, then pondered for a moment, and said honestly: "He probably won't compromise anything for me, but if I die, he might avenge me."
Hou Qing was silent for a moment, then pulled up the brim of his hat to cover his face and said, "You can see through it."
So, she doesn’t think she is worthless, at least Mengchang Jun will be angry because of her death?
Under the shadow, Hou Qing smiled silently.
It seems that he is not that stupid, and he also knows how to add weight to himself to add value.
