When passing the front hall, Li Jichu suddenly stopped and looked sideways in the direction of the main entrance. He clenched a fist with one hand and kept rubbing his thumb on the other fingers. After a long time, he finally suppressed the idea of ​​going out. Walked towards his study room. On the way, Li Jichu suddenly felt a stab of pain in his heart again. Li Jichu covered his chest and said to himself:"Lu Xianyun, if you dare to lie to me, I will..."Li Jichu sneered at himself,"If you really lie to me, I can't do anything. I don't know how long these years can tolerate me. I just ask you, don't be stupid because of me, otherwise I really can't afford it. I I also want to do what I say, but I really can't hold it anymore." Li Jichu supported the pillar next to him and took deep breaths one after another to relieve the discomfort in his heart. After he finally relieved, he sat down from the railing. He got up, continued to walk to the study, and continued to murmur:"Father used to say that I was very tough, but how come the longer I stay with you, the less tough I become, Lu Xianyun.

" Mulin Xu Qingjiu took the horse prepared by Butler Wu and went out with the sword.

Until the end of the day, Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu were not seen back. When Li Ji learned that they had not returned yet, he arranged for his disciples to go out to search, but no news had been obtained until this time.

Li Jichu arranged for another group of disciples, and just as he was about to go out together to look for them, he saw Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu walking slowly leading a horse.

"Mulin, Qingjiu," Li Jichu walked quickly towards the two of them and asked anxiously,"Why are you back? What happened?"

Seeing Xu Mulin's calm face and not speaking, Li Jichu became more and more worried,"Mu Lin..."

Xu Qingjiu hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of Xu Mulin, with a face that was even fairer under the moonlight and smiled brightly,"It's all because of me, and I didn't want to come back because I was having fun. I made brother Jichu worried. I'm really sorry." After saying that, he raised his hand and gave a slight salute, then turned to Xu Mulin and said:"Senior brother, don't be angry, I promise I will never do this again next time."

Hearing this, Xu Mulin smiled slightly stiffly and looked helplessly at Li Jichu Nod like that

"It's okay, but if you play for a long time next time, I'd better find someone to send a message. I'm not very stable recently. If something really happens, I really can't explain it to Uncle Xu."

"Okay, Qingjiu knows."

The three of them had just arrived at the front hall and were about to leave after exchanging pleasantries. Butler Wu hurried over from the direction of the main entrance.

"The eldest son, the two Mr. Xu."Butler Wu saluted.

"Butler Wu, why are you still going out so late?"Xu Qingjiu said doubtfully.

"Someone from the medical center sent a message earlier, saying that Mr. Lu had a message. After waiting for a long time, no one came, so I went to the medical center. When I got there, I told him something urgent. The young master was busy processing the letter and hadn't finished writing it yet, so he waited there for a while."After Butler Wu finished speaking, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Li Jichu

"What's the emergency?"Li Jichu took the letter and looked at it sideways.

"It was said that there was a doctor who was infected and his symptoms suddenly worsened, but now he is no longer serious. As Mr. Lu is here, I have also arranged for disciples to guard him there. The eldest son just needs to feel at ease."

After listening to Butler Wu's words, Li Jichu felt slightly at ease,"Okay. There's nothing going on here. You can go down first."

"yes. Butler Wu saluted the three of them and left.

Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu looked at each other, and Xu Mulin said first,"It's getting late. Ji Chu should go back and rest early. I'm really sorry for making you worry today.""

"Okay, you guys should take a rest early too."

After Li Jichu returned to the room, he opened the letter and Lu Xianyun's handwriting fell on the paper: Probably because he missed him too much, he made all these neglects. He postponed his return by two days. He will return before sunset in four days. He will never break his promise.. Lu Xianyun

In the past, when Lu Xianyun talked with Li Jichu, he would always say a few frivolous words from time to time. Li Jichu would teach him a lesson at first, but gradually he would pretend that he didn't hear it, but it was just on the surface, in his heart. There will still be some ups and downs. Just like now, Li Jichu has read Lu Xianyun's letter four or five times, and his heart is also ups and downs, and he is anxious and uneasy. What Lu Xianyun said in the letter is quite frivolous and improper in the past, but Li Jichu feels it is obvious. There was a lot of deliberate intention in it, and it was difficult for Li Jichu to guess that there was something hidden in it. Perhaps Lu Xianyun just wanted to make Li Jichu feel more at ease at the beginning, but he never thought about it, but it backfired.

"Sit down and I'll take a look at your wound." As soon as he returned to the yard and saw no one else around, Xu Mulin picked up Xu Qingjiu and quickly returned to the room before putting Xu Qingji down. ,"I'm going to look for the medicine left by Hall Master Yi and the others. I've used it before and found the effect to be very good. Although Lu Xianyun has already taken care of it for you, I still can't help you."..."

"Senior brother," looking at Xu Mulin's panic, Xu Qingjiu reached out to hold Xu Mulin, who was in an unstable mood,"I'm fine. Doctor Lu said that the bleeding has been stopped, and I'll just rest for a while to recuperate."

It's just that Xu Qingjiu's consolation obviously didn't have any effect. Xu Mulin took the hand held by Xu Qingjiu and said nothing with a sullen face. He walked to the side with red eyes and rummaged around. Xu Qingjiu had taken care of it before. These things. After rummaging for a while, they still couldn't find them. Xu Mulin suddenly sat on the ground frustrated, holding the hidden weapon Xu Qingjiu was studying in one hand, looking deeply at it, as if he wanted to embed the hidden weapon into something. Only in the human body can all the emotions in the heart be vented

"Senior brother."Xu Qingjiu stood up, walked to Xu Mulin, squatted down, and reached out to hold Xu Mulin's hand that was trembling slightly due to overuse. Xu Qingjiu originally wanted to continue to comfort Xu Mulin, but she just opened her mouth, but the words changed. He got the direction and said,"Senior brother, I'm thirsty and a little hungry. I've been riding a horse all the way and I'm so tired. But I want to eat a bowl of noodles cooked by my senior brother first and then have a good sleep. Is that okay?" Senior brother?"Xu Qingjiu turned her head and looked at Xu Mulin. When she saw Xu Mulin's red eyes, Xu Qingjiu felt that the pain deep in her heart was actually a bit more painful than her shoulders.

"Senior brother...Did you hear it?"Xu Qingjiu looked at Xu Mulin with wide eyes and asked in surprise.

Hearing this, Xu Mulin looked up at Xu Qingjiu, listened carefully, and then frowned and asked:"What's going on? ? i didn't hear"

"There's none? Xu Qingjiu frowned in a serious manner and said with a serious look:"Senior brother, listen again, is my stomach growling very loudly?""

"......"Xu Mulin turned his head and stopped looking at Xu Qingjiu. He lowered his head and covered his eyes with his hands to vent his emotions.

Seeing Xu Mulin's reaction, Xu Qingjiu understood that his intention had not been realized, so he had to lower his head along with Xu Mulin, thinking quickly about how to make Xu Mulin stop blaming himself so much. Before he even thought about it, he was helped to stand up by Xu Mulin on the side. Xu Qingjiu opened her mouth several times, but she didn't know what to say.

"Although Lu Xianyun has already taken care of it for you, I still want to take a look again, okay?"Xu Mulin helped Xu Qingjiu sit down at the table, stood next to Xu Qingjiu and asked softly

"Then there’s Senior Brother Lao."Xu Qingjiu smiled brightly.

Because it was already dark, Li Jichu didn't see the light-colored blood stains on the clothes on Xu Qingjiu's shoulders when he was outside just now. The clothes just seemed to be wet with water, which really wouldn't attract attention in the night.

Xu Mulin untied Xu Qingjiu's clothes. Because he had been driving so fast before, the fine cloth wrapped around Xu Qingjiu's shoulders was leaking from the front and back. Some blood came. The blood was reflected in Xu Mulin's eyes, and Xu Mulin's face turned a little red. The hands holding the clothes were clenched involuntarily, and the blue veins were even faintly exposed, but when it came to Xu Qingjiu's shoulders, , but the movements are extremely gentle

"You were anxious all the way and you didn't feel any pain even though you were bleeding? Or don't you tell me if it hurts?"The seemingly reproachful words coming out of Xu Mulin's mouth were indeed indescribable gentleness and unconcealable worry.

After hearing Xu Mulin's words, Xu Qingjiu turned her head and looked over her shoulder, then raised her head to face Xu Mulin again. Looking at it, he replied seriously:"Maybe he was so anxious that he didn't notice it. However, I don't feel any pain now. It may be that the blood from the wound was stained on the fine cloth. It seems that Doctor Lu's pain-relieving medicine is quite effective. Seeing Xu Mulin avoid looking, Xu Qingjiu reached out and patted Xu Mulin's arm, and continued:"Brother, I'm really fine, and I don't feel any pain at all now." But Dr. Lu said that Brother Jichu might notice the smell of medicine on my body, so the amount of medicine was not large, so I had to trouble my senior brother to give me more medicine later. The medicine that Dr. Lu gave us is in the sachet. Were you looking for the medicine just now? Senior brother must have been in a hurry so he forgot about it for a moment."

"...Does it really stop hurting?

Xu Qingjiu chuckled lightly,"Really, there is nothing to hide from senior brother." Don't worry, senior brother, it's really okay, Doctor Lu..."

Although Xu Mulin blamed himself more, Xu Mulin still felt a little unhappy when he heard Xu Qingjiu mention Lu Xianyun, so he had to interrupt Xu Qingjiu and asked,"What else do you want besides the noodles?" Food?"

"...Senior brother...I..."Xu Qingjiu hesitated and didn't know how to answer Xu Mulin's words. He could only smile at Xu Mulin and said after a long time:"As long as it is made by senior brother, I want to eat it. But, can we eat it tomorrow morning? I don't seem to be that hungry.." After saying that, he looked at Xu Mulin and smiled brightly.

"good."

Xu Mulin fetched hot water from the kitchen, carefully cleaned the arrow wound on Xu Qingjiu's shoulder, and then took the medicine Xu Qingjiu put in the next room, mixed it with the medicine given by Lu Xianyun, and applied it on it. Xu Qingjiu's wound. As soon as he applied the medicine, Xu Mulin was about to go out to get rid of the bloody water in the basin. As soon as he went out, he bumped into Butler Wu who came in a hurry. The water sloshed in the basin for a few times, but finally it was still there. Almost a whole basin of water fell on Xu Mulin, soaking Xu Mulin inside and out.

"...Mr. Xu, I'm sorry, I..."How could a butler from a Jianghu sect not be able to detect the smell of blood? Butler Wu looked Xu Mulin over, then turned to look at Xu Qingjiu in the room, and asked nervously:"What's going on?" Something?"

Xu Mulin had no intention of hiding anything from Butler Wu, but seeing the way Butler Wu was coming in a hurry, he thought there were more pressing matters, so he had to reply:"It's a long story, Butler Wu is here now. There must be something more important."

Butler Wu then thought about it and realized that what Xu Mulin said was indeed right, so he hurriedly replied:"Not long after the eldest son returned to his room, he hurriedly called a few disciples out. I knew what I was going to do, but I couldn't stop it, so I had no choice but to come find the two young masters."

"What? Hearing this, Xu Qingjiu, who was in the room, also stood up and walked to the door,"How could this happen?" Did someone say something to him?"

"Probably not. After the eldest son entered the room, no one else entered. Butler Wu replied, and then he suddenly thought of something and wondered:"Could it be because of Mr. Lu's letter?""

Xu Qingjiu and Xu Mulin looked at each other. When Lu Xianyun wrote the letter, the two of them were nearby. There was indeed no other problem with the letter except for the frivolous language.

"Maybe Jichu sensed something was wrong. He was suspicious from the beginning. Maybe the letter just confirmed his suspicion. Xu Mulin said in a deep voice:"Butler Wu, wait a moment. I'll change my clothes and go find him with you.""After saying that, he turned around and returned to the room.

Butler Wu's eyes returned to Xu Qingjiu after Xu Mulin disappeared from sight. Although he was a little confused and dissatisfied with Xu Mulin's behavior, he still maintained his normal appearance and treated Xu Qingjiu. Jiu asked with concern:"How is Mr. Xu? Is the injury serious? Xu

Qingjiu noticed all the expressions of Butler Wu and asked instead,"Butler Wu has been in Guxia Manor for many years, so he should know brother Jichu very well."" Without waiting for Butler Wu's reply, Xu Qingjiu continued on by himself:"You were keenly aware of the smell of blood just now, not to mention that senior brother was drenched in that water. If he is not replaced, brother Jichu will also be killed. You will realize that this is one of them. Secondly, if the senior brother rushes to persuade him in such a panic, I am afraid that he will become more and more sure of his own judgment and will be even less likely to convince the senior brother. He will have to make a desperate move. Butler Wu has been in Guxia Manor for a long time, and he is not interested in brother Jichu. He should have a far better understanding than me and my senior brother. Come to think of it, Butler Wu just got into trouble just because he was concerned."
