thousand words

Baili Mingyan didn't know how he fought his way to the inn, and when he came back to his senses, he was already sitting on the stone steps at the entrance of the inn, dazed for an unknown amount of time.

He was soaked in blood, the palm of the hand holding the handle of the crescent moon was covered with dried blood, the black robe was soaked in blood, and there was an unavoidable stench in the breeze before dawn.There are people in a hurry, some people are carrying corpses, some people are cleaning the messy street... Baili Mingyan looked towards the east at the end of the street, but the morning mist had not seen the sun for a long time.

At some point, sporadic snowflakes floated in the sky and landed on Baili Mingyan's forehead. The ice crystals melted when heated and turned into a drop of snow and tears flowing down his face.It wasn't until then that Baili Mingyan gradually came to his senses, and his limbs and bones regained consciousness.

He lowered his head and sighed, a pair of cloud brocade boots stained with blood appeared in his eyes. Baili Mingyan looked up and saw Che Feiji standing in front of him holding an unknown long silver blade. It was even stained with blood, ticking and falling on the ground that had just begun to turn white.Not far away, he saw Shangguanzhe and Qianli running around, as if they were helping Lin Huang with his funeral.

After being dazed for a few seconds, Baili Mingyan woke up abruptly. He stood up abruptly, feeling dizzy so badly that he had to use the crescent moon to support his body in order to barely stand.

In an instant, memories from a few hours ago flooded in. Although it was not clear, Baili Mingyan vaguely remembered that when he and Lin Huang were about to be unable to stay at the inn, Che Feiji suddenly appeared and helped him together with Qianli and Shangguanzhe. Block out the maddened predators.Several people teamed up and finally controlled the situation before the sun rose, and none of the ordinary people in the inn was injured.

"Where's Han? Where's Yuhan?" Baili Mingyan immediately realized that Qianyuhan wasn't there after waking up.

But Che Feiji stretched out his hand to support him and said helplessly, "Take care of yourself first, Yu Han is very well now, you must have exhausted your true energy after standing alone for so long."

Although Baili Mingyan didn't say anything, Che Feiji knew it very well.Although he has not followed Baili Mingyan closely for so many years, he has watched him grow up. Baili Mingyan is talented and hardworking. His ability to win the first place in the martial arts conference shows this point.Che Feiji knew that he was very strong, but no matter how strong a person is, he is still made of flesh and blood. No one can not be tired after several hours of bloody fighting.

Hearing that Qian Yuhan was fine, Baili Mingyan breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly, "Where is he, I'll go and see him."

Che Feiji wanted to persuade him to rest for a while, but now that he looked like he couldn't feel at ease without seeing Qian Yuhan, Che Feiji couldn't persuade him anymore.

"He's in room No. [-], Tianzi, on the second floor." After speaking, Che Feiji said again: "Don't you care about the people who worked so hard to save them?"

But Baili Mingyan smiled lightly and said: "You and Shangguan are here, so I have nothing to worry about. Besides, Shangqing must also come. If I worry too much, won't I not trust you?"

Che Feiji was stunned by the traffic jam, and smiled after a while: "You brat, you know how to assign someone else..."

Compared to the messy streets outside, the inn is much tidier, but this cleanliness foretells the great battle last night, and almost none of the people who were infected by the gu survived...

Baili Mingyan scratched his head irritably, wanting to see Qian Yuhan more and more.

Quickly went upstairs, walked to the door of the room at the corner, could vaguely hear someone talking inside, Baili Mingyan knocked on the door patiently although he was very anxious.

Then Qian Yuhan's voice came from the door: "Come in."

Baili Mingyan stepped back from the door and entered, only to see Qian Yuhan's spotless white clothes, which had obviously been washed again.Seeing that Qian Yuhan was really intact, Baili Mingyan's stiff lips could finally raise a slight arc, he walked over and opened his arms to hug Qian Yuhan.

After parting from Qian Yuhan last night, he was worried more than once. After seeing those crazy people who were bewitched by Gu, cruel and bloodthirsty, Baili Mingyan was even more worried, wishing he could be by Qian Yuhan's side.But he knew that Qian Yuhan was an extraordinarily powerful person, he didn't need anyone's protection, let alone needless worries.

No matter what, after seeing the purgatory on earth, Baili Mingyan's suppressed emotion in his heart became more and more wanton. Now that he sees Qian Yuhan, he can't help but want to hug him tightly, so that he can clearly know that he is by his side .

But when Baili Mingyan was about to hug Qian Yuhan, Qian Yuhan suddenly raised the sinking knife in his hand and held it against him.

Looking down at the scabbard with broken scales on his chest, Baili Mingyan was taken aback for a moment, but Qian Yuhan said with disgust on his face: "Go wash it first, it doesn't smell like..."

Baili Mingyan: "..." I was disgusted.

Back in the room, took off the sticky bloody clothes, and washed it from head to toe with hot water.After cleaning, Baili Mingyan realized that there were far more wounds on his body than he had imagined.After the body was relaxed, the numb nerves began to sharpen, and the large and small wounds on the arms, legs, and back were painful, and he broke out in a cold sweat under the stimulation of the hot water.

It seems that a bandage is necessary, Baili Mingyan remembered that he carried a bottle of hemostasis powder with him, so when he turned his head, he saw a pile of medicine bottles on the table, more than a dozen medicine bottles neatly placed together, Golden sore medicine, Zhixue powder, Huiling pill...there was even gauze for bandaging beside it, Baili Mingyan froze in place, and immediately felt a rush of heat in his heart.

Half an hour later, Baili Mingyan returned to Tianzi No. [-] room.

Qian Yuhan glanced at the refreshing young man, and said lightly, "Has the wound been treated?"

Seeing Qian Yuhan, Baili Mingyan felt his heart full, and smiled and said, "Brother Han's medicine is very effective."

Qian Yuhan froze for a moment, then shook his head and smiled helplessly: "There is nothing I can do about you."

"It seems that the long-cherished wish of Lord Baili for many years has been fulfilled?"

Hearing the third person's voice suddenly, Baili Mingyan was taken aback, only then noticed the person tied up in the corner.Baili Mingyan frowned and said, "Xiao Jinle? You...the flute player is indeed you!"

Xiao Jinle didn't wear a shirt, and a thick bandage was wrapped around his upper body chest, even so, blood still oozed from the wound on his chest, staining the bandage red.His complexion was as pale as paper, and he knew at a glance that it was caused by excessive blood loss. Baili Mingyan didn't know what happened. Seeing that Xiao Jinle was seriously injured, he turned his head and looked at Qian Yuhan carefully.

Seeing Baili Mingyan's subconscious actions, Xiao Jinle snorted bitterly and said with a wry smile: "The Master Qianda Pavilion is very good, if you have the time to worry about him, you might as well care about me. If I accidentally die, let's see how you can track down the behind-the-scenes The person who made a voodoo..."

Qian Yuhan immediately answered, "So you admit that there is a mastermind behind you?"

Xiao Jinle was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "I am Qijue, the running dog of Qijue Villa, so naturally I listened to the master's words and was assigned by the master."

Baili Mingyan: "My father wouldn't do such a thing."

Qian Yuhan: "It's not Bailichen."

Hearing the two speak in unison, Xiao Jinle smiled even more happily: "Pavilion Master Qian, Pavilion Master Qian, after getting someone's son, you don't care about killing your father in the past and helping the enemy speak well? This is not like your style."

Qian Yuhan's expression froze, and the Shen Yu knife was unsheathed coldly and rested firmly on Xiao Jinle's neck. As long as he exerted a little force, he could easily kill him.

Qian Yuhan: "You'd better think about it before you talk!"

Facing the threat, Xiao Jinle's face remained unchanged, he said: "Then you kill me, anyway, everyone of you wants me dead."

Qian Yuhan ignored him, and asked directly: "Who placed the blood curse spirit Gu? Who was the other flute player last night? Why are you poisoning this town?"

Xiao Jinle looked indifferent, giggling and said: "I'm still injured, Pavilion Master Qian doesn't care about the injured, and I can't answer three questions at once."

Hearing this sentence, Qian Yuhan had obviously endured to the limit. He tortured Xiao Jinle repeatedly in the past two hours, but he always talked about other things, like a copper pea, which cannot be cut without a needle.But he was the only breakthrough in the blood curse spirit voodoo incident, not to mention the hidden conspiracy behind it, just poisoning hundreds of innocent people in the town, Qian Yuhan couldn't let go of the person who released the voodoo.

While Qian Yuhan was thinking about it, Baili Mingyan suddenly said, "What are you willing to say?"

Xiao Jinle continued to pretend to be stupid: "What are you talking about?"

Baili Mingyan continued as if he had never heard of it, "How about we make a deal?"

Both Qian Yuhan and Xiao Jinle were taken aback, Qian Yuhan turned his head to look at Baili Mingyan, the brat in his memory had completely disappeared from the recklessness of his youth, and he looked confident, steady and reliable.The profile of the young man was handsome and straight, and there was a glimmer of light in his dark eyes, which was the tranquility accumulated after seven years of wandering in the rivers and lakes.Qian Yuhan stared at him like this, but he was thinking in his heart that when he laughed, he was obviously still very childish, his eyes were crooked like a child who didn't grow up.

Seemingly aware of Qian Yuhan's gaze, Baili Mingyan turned his head slightly and asked in doubt, "What's wrong?"

Qian Yuhan withdrew his gaze and said, "I was just wondering what bargaining chip you have to trade with him."

"Pavilion Master Qian is a sensible person." Xiao Jinle turned to Baili Mingyan, "I'm also curious about what you have that I want?"

Baili Mingyan calmed down, raised his hand to help Qian Yuhan smooth the wrinkles on the shoulders of his coat, and said casually: "It's fair, you tell me about the blood curse spirit Gu, and I'll tell you about Gu Shangsang the truth."

Just this sentence made the smile on Xiao Jinle's face disappear instantly, and his originally pale face became a little paler.He suddenly became agitated, and struggled to sit up from the chair that bound him, but it was tied by Qian Yuhan himself, so how could he break free with just two random strokes?His crazy twisting just made the blood stain on his chest a little bigger.

"What did you say? The truth about Gu Shangsang, what truth?! Tell me, tell me!" Xiao Jinle roared like crazy.

Qian Yuhan didn't know who Gu Shangsang was, but obviously only one name was needed to make Xiao Jinle lose his helmet and armor in an instant. This person must occupy a pivotal position in his life.

Qian Yuhan looked at Baili Mingyan silently, but saw a moment of compassion in Baili Mingyan's quiet eyes, but his tone was still calm: "I said, as long as you tell me the blood curse spirit Gu things, I'll tell you everything."
