Since Su Qingwu's death, Qiu Ji has no one to confide in. I met Xu Mulin by chance today. Although the two are still not familiar with each other, Qiu Ji really needs someone to know what he is thinking. Qiu Ji originally thought that he would be released after talking, but maybe he still needs a vent to vent his grievances. Only through crying of emotions such as regret, loneliness and so on can we truly be released.

Xu Mulin was at a loss when facing Xu Qingjiu's tears. Now that he saw Qiu Ji kneeling on the ground crying, he didn't know how to comfort her. But on second thought, maybe it would be good to cry like this. Xu Mulin had no choice but to walk a little further outside the hospital, just in case anyone noticed anything unusual when passing by.

Seeing the sky turning white, the servants and disciples of the Yuanyang Sect also began to busy themselves with the funeral of Du Shengyang, and the whole house began to slowly become noisy. Fortunately, during this period, no one noticed the courtyard here.

"Autumn girl."Xu Mulin was leaning on the door and taking a nap. He heard footsteps coming from beside him. When he opened his eyes, he saw Qiu Ji coming.

"Mr. Xu, thank you very much"

"How did Miss Qiu join the Yuanyang Sect? Now that things are done, are you ready to leave?"

"I arrived in Luzhou just after dark yesterday, and the Yuanyang faction didn't have any guards now. I found a back door to sneak in. Nowadays, there are many outsiders in Yuanyang Sect. I will leave soon after the door opens. Where is Mr. Xu? I didn’t see your junior brother with you today. Is he waiting outside to pick you up?"

"Qingjiu didn't come with me. Jihua is here, do you want to go over and see him? He heard about you before and was worried about you"

"Brother Jihua? Why is he here?"

"Jihua is familiar with Du Ling, Du Shengyang's eldest son, and I came with Jihua this time. We will be placed in Du Ling's courtyard. Do you want to go over and meet him?"

"I remembered that Brother Jihua had taken a man named Du Ling to Luoqiu Valley many years ago. I didn’t expect that Du Ling was Du Shengyang’s son. He really didn’t look like him at all....only...I'd better not go"

"It's okay. I haven't told Jihua about you and Miss Su. I only said that I met you by chance before."

"All right. I haven't seen Brother Jihua for a long time, so I'll see him first before leaving. On my return trip, I also want to go to Qinzhou to see Sister Qingwu. When I escaped from Luoqiu Valley, luckily Sister Qingwu arrived in time, otherwise I might have died long ago."

Hearing this, the mysterious man who helped Qiu Ji and the others suddenly flashed through Xu Mulin's mind. Perhaps so many things happened during this period that Xu Mulin completely forgot about the mysterious man who first appeared.

"Are you saying that Miss Su arrived there not long after the incident in Luoqiugu?"

"Yes. Speaking of this, I remembered that Sister Qingwu said before that she received a reminder from someone at that time, so she rushed there so quickly. And there is another thing that is very strange. The Xiangchen Sect has always been good at developing various medicines, and the previous leader has never practiced swordsmanship and lightness skills. I even asked Sister Qingwu at that time, but she just She said someone had mentioned her, but she didn’t seem to know who exactly."

"Then when you went to Wuzhou and assassinated Xie Chi on the border of Qinzhou, did anyone else help you?"

"No, just us...No, it seems there is. When we were in Qinzhou, we were caught once. Now it seems that it may have been done by Du Shengyang's people, but then we were rescued by a man, but that man just helped us get rid of the guards and then opened the door lock. , we didn’t see anyone when we left."

According to what the two people have done, it can be inferred that the man in white is Qi Kaiyuan, and what the man in black did is completely contrary to Qi Kaiyuan. The man who passed the news to Su Qingwu and taught Su Qingwu how to practice swordsmanship and the man in black will be the same person. Was what the man in black did directly aimed at Qi Kaiyuan? Or was it just aimed at Xie Chi or Du Shengyang? I thought that things had been smoothed out now, but suddenly, because of Qiu Ji's words, More doubts arose, and Xu Mulin's heart, which had just been relieved, became high again.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu..."

"...Please, Miss Qiu, please wait here for a while, or you can go directly with me. Jihua and the others should be waking up soon. People will be coming and going here in a while, and you are not safe here either."

"good."

Li Jihua didn't sleep deeply all night. In the second half of the night, he vaguely heard the sound of Du Ling coming back. After that, there was no other movement in the courtyard. Seeing that the outside of the house was gradually getting brighter, Li Jihua couldn't lie still, so he casually I put on some clothes and went out. I knocked on Xu Mulin's room first and found no one in the room. I also made sure that I hadn't missed the sound of Xu Mulin's return. I thought about it and went back to the room to change clothes before going out. Go find Xu Mulin. Once out of the yard, Li Jihua didn't know where to look, and Li Jihua was a little worried. If someone saw the young master of Guxia Village here, would it bring trouble to Guxia Village and Li Jichu?. After all, Li Jichu had previously spoken out to stop the sect that was closely related to Guxiazhuang from coming to the Yuanyang sect to cause trouble. But thinking about Xu Mulin's absence all night, Li Jihua felt that this was more important. Although Xu Mulin's ability was more important than Li Jihua and Wu Jinghua are even stronger together, but they are not completely sure that there will be no accidents.

"Brother Jihua?"

Not long after Li Jihua came out of the yard, he suddenly saw a few people walking in front of him who were not disciples of the Yuanyang Sect. As soon as he retreated to a corner to avoid it, he heard a call from behind. Seeing

Li Jihua turn around, Qiu Ji He walked quickly to Li Jihua, looked at the direction Li Jihua had just walked, and after making sure there was nothing unusual, he looked at Li Jihua and said with a smile:"Brother Jihua, what are you doing here? Xu Gong and IAs soon as I arrived at the gate of the hospital, I saw you coming out, but you walked too fast and we couldn't catch up. You didn't look back when I called you. I thought I was wrong."

"Ah Ji, why did you come to Yuanyang Sect? only you? when did you come?"Li Jihua asked one after another

"I was the only one who arrived last night."Qiu Ji felt that he couldn't answer the first question a second time, so he had to answer two simple questions first. Fortunately, Li Jihua saw Qiu Ji's hesitation just now. Although he didn't know the specific reason, he at least knew that Du Shengyang and Du Shengyang were hesitant. It was related to the matter in Luoqiu Valley, so I didn’t ask any more questions.

"It was Brother Mulin who told you I was here."With that said, Li Jihua looked at Xu Mulin behind Qiu Ji and nodded with a smile,"Let's go to our yard first. There are so many people coming and going here, it's inconvenient."

When the three of them returned to the yard, Wu Jinghua had also gotten up and was wandering around the yard looking for someone. When he saw Li Jihua, Wu Jinghua was about to ask, when he saw Xu Mulin and Qiu Ji following closely behind. Wu Jinghua looked at Looking at Qiu Ji, I was curious about who picked up this girl.

"Jihua, where have you been? Who is this girl? Why did Senior Brother Xu come back just now? went well?"

Li Jihua saw that Wu Jinghua slept deeply last night, and thought he didn't know anything.

Seeing that Li Jihua didn't speak, Xu Mulin answered first:"This is Miss Qiu Ji, I met her outside."

"Miss Qiu? I heard Jihua mention you before, and I finally saw you today. Wu Jinghua looked at Qiu Ji and then turned to Li Jihua and said,"Du Ling came here just now. He said that he was busy with Du Shengyang's funeral today and asked us to stay in the yard as much as possible.""

"Did you just leave? Why didn't I meet him?"

"I was worried about the inconvenience from our side, so I avoided it first."

Although Xu Mulin didn't say it clearly, Li Jihua knew what Xu Mulin did last night, so he thought it would be better to avoid it.

Li Jihua wanted to ask Qiu Ji in detail about his situation over the past year, and he also wanted to confirm with Xu Mulin what he had done last night. Considering the situation, they were all acquaintances and there was no need to avoid them, so they decided to go to the waterside pavilion in the courtyard to talk together. As soon as they walked to the room, they met an old woman in her fifties walking towards them. , I thought it was just an ordinary servant in Du Ling's courtyard who just walked by, but when the old woman arrived in front of a few people, she stopped directly and said:"Just now, the eldest young master confessed that he would be busy entertaining guests outside the courtyard today. If the young gentlemen need anything, they can just greet the old woman."

"good. Representative Li Jihua spoke,"What do you call your mother-in-law?""

"The old woman’s surname is Qi, and several young gentlemen call me Mrs. Qi."

"Granny Qi"

"The young master is polite. Breakfast has been prepared in the kitchen in the courtyard. Where would you like to have your meals? The old woman goes down to make arrangements."

"We want to talk for a while over there in the pavilion, there is Granny Laoqi."

"Okay, those gentlemen, please feel free to do so. Someone will come over to make arrangements immediately."After saying that, Mrs. Qi slightly leaned over and lowered her head to signal, moved two steps to the side, and was about to pass by a few people.Only then did Li Jihua notice what Mrs. Qi was holding in her hand.

"Grandma Qi stayed"

"What other instructions does the young master have?"Ms. Qi stopped, still lowering her head and replied.

"Is what the mother-in-law is holding the medicine that Du Ling has been taking?" Without waiting for Mrs. Qi's answer, Li Jihua picked up the medicine bowl and put it under her nose and smelled it. Li Jihua raised his eyes and looked at Mrs. Qi. He stretched his brows and continued to ask:"Why did Du Ling take the medicine so early? Not drinking? Do you think the medicine is bitter?"

When she heard the word"Du Ling", Mrs. Qi's expression seemed to become more friendly. She looked up at Li Jihua and said with a smile:"This medicine has been used to recuperate the eldest son's body. He drinks it basically every day. Today I Thinking that the eldest son would be busy outside all day, he might not have time to go back to the house to drink medicine, so he thought of frying it for him to drink before he went out. It's just that he hasn't been very willing to drink medicine recently. When I went over to clean it up, I saw it on the table, so I had to bring it back first, thinking of simmering it on the fire and bringing it to him later."

"You haven’t taken any medicine lately? What about his body?"Li Jihua saw Mrs. Qi who was smiling kindly just now and sighed directly after hearing the question she asked. Her expression was also very sad, and she probably understood in her heart,"Are you always taking care of this medicine for Du Ling?"

"Yes, I personally take care of everything in the eldest son’s entrance."After Mrs. Qi answered, she felt that Li Jihua's words were a bit strange,"Master, what do you mean? Is there anything wrong with this medicine?"

"My mother-in-law misunderstood. I am also a doctor. When I saw Du Ling this time, I found that his health was much worse than a few years ago, so I was a little worried about him." Li Jihua looked at Mrs. Qi's behavior, and he really didn't think she was a simple old woman. Li Jihua didn't dare to take her words lightly,"Is the dregs of this medicine still there? I want to prepare some tonic medicine for Du Ling. If I think that the medicine I can give him is the same as what he is drinking now, then I will think of other ways."

"Yes, sir, I will take you there. Hearing this, Mrs. Qi's voice became a little excited. After she finished speaking, she felt a little rude and hurriedly added:"Please forgive me, sir. It's because I didn't think well." Young Masters, please have breakfast first. I'll go get it for Young Masters to check."

"It’s troublesome to carry it back and forth. My mother-in-law and I went to see it together and it’s just past it. It doesn’t take much effort to look at the dregs of the medicine."

"Okay, then I’ll trouble you, Mr."

"No problem. After saying that, Li Jihua nodded to the three of them and then followed Mrs. Qi to the kitchen.

Wu Jinghua followed, took two steps, smiled apologetically at Xu Mulin, then turned around and followed Li Jihua quickly.

Mrs. Qi saw someone following her. , neither asking nor showing any strange expression.

Wu Jinghua looked at Li Jihua and smiled stupidly. Li Jihua was not surprised or curious that Wu Jinghua would follow, and just looked at Wu Jinghua and smiled.

When Li Jihua and Wu Jinghua came to the pavilion, Xu Mulin Just looking at Li Jihua's gloomy face, I knew there must be something wrong with the medicine.

"Brother Mulin went to investigate last night and found anything unusual?"Jihua just arrived under the pavilion and asked before he sat down.
