C16 (1/2)
Baili Lan An walked over to the bed and looked at him. Suddenly, she pulled out a dagger from her sleeve and gritted her teeth. Then, he remembered Mo Qingfeng's last words. After thinking for a long time, he decided to put it away. Hearing the hurried footsteps coming from outside, she knew that Mimi had come. At first, she walked very lightly, but the recent events had hit her too hard. Every day, she would be in a trance and her steps would be hurried. The corners of her mouth curled up as she let out a small, incongruous laugh and cried. She squatted down by the bedside and said with grievance: ”Villa Master, what should I do? I know someone wants to harm you, but there's nothing I can do. I know that Qin Xiaoliu is a spy sent by the Imperial Uncle's Palace, but my Master just doesn't believe me when she's bewitched by him. Now that you're lying here, it's all my fault. I'm weak, so I'm afraid that Master will blame me for not daring to kill him. But, Lan An isn't afraid of death. I'm afraid that if Master kills me, no one in this world can save you! His master was really confused. Although that Qin Xiaoliu was locked up in the prison, his master still visited him every day. That spy would act again, pretending to be sympathetic and die in the prison. Who knows, he might be released tomorrow. I didn't dare to save you because I was afraid that if he came out, he would harm you! Master, you are so silly! ” She was crying but listening carefully to the sounds outside. She only stood up after she heard the slight flurry of footsteps. With an evil smile, she turned around and left.
The rest were left to Laifu. Mo Qingfeng came out of the Ju Yi Hall, even though it was still daytime, the north wind was still strong. He stood in the courtyard and looked at the plum trees. They had originally been planted by Lucky, but sometimes Lucky would also come out to admire and make some sour poems. However, he couldn't come up with a better poem than this person.
As the wind blew stronger, Mo Qingfeng stood by the wind, trying to clear his mind. Another day passed, but there was still no improvement. He could not wait any longer. His self-control was truly inferior to Laifu's! Could they have been wrong? As he thought about this, he walked into the room with Dan Rong. However, there wasn't anyone there. The wind had blown the windows open and the fire was about to go out.
Annoyed, he shut the window and rekindled the coals, roasting his hands. It was a cold winter this year, but why hadn't Mimi come? Wasn't she the one who cried the most every day? You don't have the strength to cry? With a smile on his face, Mo Qingfeng sat on the end of the bed. He didn't dare to sleep now, so he closed his eyes to think about other things. The Prime Minister, Uncle Guo, General, Princess, Emperor, all sorts of high level figures floated over and over in his mind. Since when did he, a commoner, become involved with the royal family?
He intended to close his eyes and rest, but his mind was restless as he tossed and turned. He was thinking about how he could save his brother, how he could get rid of the poison in Qin Xiaoliu's body, how he could pass the county magistrate's trial with Xu Rufeng, and how he could seize the most difficult contribution points. Originally, this was not something he should worry about.
When someone came in, he looked up and saw that it was Lai Fu with a tired expression. Lai Fu's face was slightly pale. Perhaps he had expended too much internal energy yesterday. He stood up and asked, ”Is everything ready?”
”Yes, I have. ”Just do your best and leave it to fate.” He looked at Dan Rong Rui and said: ”If the manor lord was here, I'd definitely be able to avoid danger.”
”You did your best, too. Besides, our problem is not only this one. We won't worry if we have too many debts, and we won't bite if there's too many lice. ” Mo Qingfeng tried his best to speak in a relaxed manner.
”Yes.”
”Let me do it this time. Are you okay?”
”It's fine. Next time, I really can't do it next time.” Laifu smiled and wiped his sweat as he replied.
Mo Qingfeng stood at the doorway as he pondered in his heart. If this crisis was over, what would he do? Eat something to reward yourself. When he thought of eating, he felt a little hungry. He also forgot the last time he had eaten. He was really impressed by that little bully, Qin Xiao. He never stopped eating and even seemed to eat a lot.
While he was lost in his thoughts, someone knocked on the door and angrily opened it. Why was there someone disturbing him at this time? Seeing the panic on his face, Mo Qingfeng vaguely felt that something was amiss. ”Not good, little bully Qin, little bully Qin —”
”What happened to him?” Mo Qingfeng asked with a trembling voice.
”He's dead!”
Mo Qingfeng didn't know how he got to the dungeon. He rushed in, but he didn't dare take another step. He couldn't accept this fact. Was he the one who caused her death? Despite knowing that she was in danger, he was still able to send her into danger! Was it because he, Mo Qingfeng, was too selfish? And he didn't care what he did to her for the sake of his goal! When he thought of the day when the two of them had fought together to kill, Qin Xiao had even said that if he could make it back alive, he would become sworn brothers with him. Remembering her extraordinary kid looking at the knife, he called that a kid looking at a duck. Actually, he truly knew that he must have put a lot of effort into practicing this set of sabresmanship.
Mo Qingfeng slowly walked to her side, his small and thin body was already stretched out, his already pale face was now even more green, and his seven orifices were bleeding profusely as they fell at his feet.
He could not believe that his life, which had been so lifelike a moment ago, was gone just like that. His friend who had scolded him a moment ago had died just like that.
He bent down and picked her up. It was really light.
Mo Qingfeng turned his head to look at the guard at the entrance, enunciating word by word, ”What's going on?”
The guard was terrified, he had never seen Mo Qingfeng with such a sharp gaze before, and he trembled as he replied, ”Your subordinate does not know. It's just that, just now Mimi came over and said she was sending him hot soup. Not long after this, this little hoodlum, Qin Wushuang, started shouting for help. I thought he was sick again. He just ignored her. After a while, seeing that there's no movement, I came over to take a look and she's already bleeding from all seven orifices. She's dead. ”
”Go get Mimi, get Wangjin, go! ”Go quickly!” Mo Qingfeng roared with all his might.
The guard agreed, turned around and ran, running a few steps, only to see Wang Cai rushing in, seeing Mo Qingfeng, he slapped his thigh, ”Second Master, I've finally found you, Mimi, she's dead!”
”What?”
”Mimi committed suicide!”
Dead? Suicide?
Why did these words always happen to her? He swayed his body, and Wan Cai held him up, and anxiously said: ”Master Er, you have to hold on! You can't be here without me! ”Why is it that Qin Xiaoliu also —”
Mo Qingfeng was terrifyingly calm, he gently let go of Qin Xiaobao and instructed, ”I'll leave the rest of the matters of Qin Xiaobao to you, you'll be buried in the limelight, don't you know how glorious it is!?”
Seeing him leave, he quickly asked: ”Second Master, where are you going?”
”Meet my big brother.” Mo Qingfeng slowly said.
When he returned to Laifu, he had already stopped cultivating and slumped back in his chair. He took out a True Jade Pill from his bosom and placed it on the table, ”Hurry up and eat it as you need to replenish your energy.”
Laifu swallowed his saliva without hesitation and asked, ”What happened just now?”
Mo Qingfeng shook his head. He clearly knew that his brother was unconscious, but he was still afraid that he would hear it.
Laifu had never seen Mo Qingfeng's face turn so ugly and so solemn. He had always felt that something was amiss, but he did not dare to ask too much as he closed his eyes to rest.
This time, it seemed like Dan Rong woke up even later than last time. Mo Qingfeng tidied his hair, afraid that he would reveal a flaw. He forced a smile but didn't say anything. He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would choke. He even joked to Laifu, ”When my brother is well, he'll give you a promotion and a raise.” Laifu also laughed when he heard this, ”I'm already a deputy, how can I get promoted? Isn't it time to usurp the throne? I don't want to shock the world with my achievements! ” However, in the end, he didn't use the feelings he had built up. In the end, he didn't wake up. Mo Qingfeng trembled with fear and went over. However, all of a sudden, he clenched his fists tightly and a large amount of blood flowed out of his mouth, spraying directly onto Mo Qingfeng's face. Mo Qingfeng was so scared that he froze and didn't know how to deal with it anymore. Laifu scurried over, scratching his head in panic. ”Why, why? How could this be? What was wrong? ”What's wrong?”
Mo Qingfeng grabbed onto Laifu and asked, ”What happened?”
”I don't know, I don't know!” Laifu timidly broke free from Mo Qingfeng's restraints, walking back and forth while muttering to himself. Suddenly, he clapped his hands and scared Mo Qingfeng, his eyes widened and filled with fear, causing the hairs on Mo Qingfeng's body to stand. Laifu slapped his thigh. ”Why am I so confused? How can I be so confused? ”
”What's the matter?” Mo Qingfeng had reached the edge of collapse, and he grabbed onto Laifu's collar as he roared loudly.
”I actually forgot that last time, Luo Ru's Soul Dissolving Hook was actually poisoned.”
”How could that be?” Mo Qingfeng was unable to imagine the signs of his brother's poisoning.
Lan An and I have long seen that the concealed weapon of Luo Ju Kuang has been tempered with a slow poison. People who are poisoned will naturally listen to everything they hear if they want to live. Lan An and I secretly placed the antidote into the manor lord's tea cup every day because we were worried about your worries. However, the poison in the manor lord's tea has yet to be dispelled. It must be because the poison mixed together with the previous one, causing the poison to be even more deadly. I sealed off the acupoints on my own accord and used my powers to expel the poison, but actually hastened the spread of the poison. ”I'm done for. Even if there is an antidote, I'm afraid there is no cure!” Laifu was so regretful that he wanted to smash his head into a wall.
”Impossible!” How is that possible? ”
Mo Qingfeng looked at him in disbelief, ”What do you mean there's no hope? What do you mean hopeless? Young bastard Qin is dead, Mimi is dead, and my brother is dead. No hope? Who is the one who isn't saved? ” ”He thinks that it's not that everyone is hopeless, but that he is the one who is really hopeless.” She's — dead? ” In the end, he wasn't able to open his eyes. He could only think about it lightly and no longer make a sound.
”Big brother!” Mo Qingfeng roared as he pounced towards Qin Wentian.
Laifu looked at Mo Qingfeng's expressionless face as he casually hugged onto his son's corpse. He didn't cry, but he chuckled instead, ”Good, very good! He Huan in life but also in death. The reason why he came to live secretly was to repay the manor lord's kindness. Now that we have made a huge mistake and are unable to turn the tide, we can be considered relieved. ” He sighed and said, ”We also have some help on the Road to River Styx.”
Mo Qingfeng raised his head and was stunned, before he could react to the meaning behind his words, Laifu had already chuckled, laughing till Mo Qingfeng felt cold all over, he turned and quickly pulled out the soft sword at Mo Qingfeng's waist, touching his neck, causing blood to spurt out, dying Mo Qingfeng's famous' Lunar Steps' sword red!
”Clang!” A person and a sword fell under his feet.
Mo Qingfeng discovered that he could no longer clearly see the scenery in front of him. He suspected that this was the real deal, or if everyone was just putting on an act to tease him. After poking Lai Fu and poking Dan Rong Ruoyun, he finally closed his eyes in despair. After a long while, he shouted towards the door, ”Someone come!”
Baili Lan An couldn't believe the scene in front of him. If that wasn't the case, how could it have ended up like this? She went up to take a look at the corpse, but Mo Qingfeng pushed it away and squeezed out through his teeth towards the stunned Wan Chao, ”I have to prepare for the aftermath.”
Mo Qingfeng knelt in front of the mourning hall, with his hair in disarray, his eyes looking at the figures in front of him in a disorderly manner, no one knew what they were busy with.
Baili Lan An squatted in front of him and helped him to straighten his messy hair and clothes, mumbling, ”Master, how could you be so dirty?” Finished speaking, she picked up her sleeve and wiped the dirt off her face, ”You are Mo Qingfeng, you are the eternally pure and pure Young Noble Qingcheng, how can you be like this?”
Mo Qingfeng leaned on the coffin, as though he didn't know who Baili Lan An was, and asked: ”You said my brother died just like that? Do you think he was just teasing me? ”
Baili Lan An looked at the four coffins, and slowly stood up. Looking at Mo Qingfeng who looked like a madman, yes, who could still associate this person who was already delirious with Young Noble Qingcheng?
”Master, I'm really sorry.” Baili Lan An wiped away her tears. She didn't want to end up like this, but why did it end up like this? She never wished for him to die, and even more so, she didn't wish for her master to be sad.
Mo Qingfeng turned around and touched the ice-cold coffin. From start to finish, he had the feeling that they were still by his side. How could their lives so easily slip away like that? Wang Cai had been busy with all sorts of things for an entire day, and Mo Qingfeng's appearance was enough to move the hearts of everyone. At night, he refused to leave and stayed at the mausoleum. They also refused to wear white and stubbornly believed that they weren't dead.
