Shen Ci began to quickly think about countermeasures in his mind.It took less than half an hour before and after he went to the medicine house, Xu Qinghan must not have gone far, maybe things are not too bad.He is not familiar with the place here, and if he is blindly confused, if he finds the wrong direction and wastes time, he might as well go to the medicine hut and ask the owner of this place to help him with all his heart.

Shen Ci had some calculations in his mind, he made a decisive decision to turn back the same way, and explained the current situation to Shen Xin, who was leisurely making medicine.Hearing this, Shen Xin got up hastily, her sleeves accidentally turned over the medicine mortar, and the juice crumbs stained a large part of the front of her clothes.After several changes in his face, he quickly suppressed the dissatisfaction and complaints in his heart, lowered his eyes and brushed the stains on the skirt of his clothes, and said expressionlessly, "You are the one who is ashamed of your trust in me, and I should not be responsible, so if something happens to you You must bear it on my shoulders, and I will tell my grandfather that you let him go without telling me, this is the greatest crime I can bear."

Shen Ci bowed and apologized guiltily, "I was too negligent, it was my fault, and I must be responsible." After he finished speaking, he stood up straight, eagerly holding Shen Xin's hand and begged, "You find him first, and you must be responsible." Keep him safe."

Shen Xin patted the back of his hand to show comfort, hooked the red string around his neck with her little finger and pulled out a small sapphire whistle, put it in her mouth and blew it briefly.Soon a masked man in black knelt on one knee in front of Shen Xin, his voice was hoarse like gravel rubbing against an iron plate, "Master." The Shen family would assign five dead men to protect each son from childhood, Shen Xin The heart will naturally not be treated badly.Shen Ci is sure that he still has a very powerful force in the dark, but the work used to do this kind of search is too fanciful, calling these dead men is enough.

Shen Xin instructed, "Put down all the things at hand, and go find His Royal Highness Yan Wang back immediately. If I don't blow the whistle, you will keep looking. When others ask, just say find his cat for Young Master Xiao. Don't let the secret out." .”

"Yes, my subordinate obeys!" The dead man replied forcefully, stood up, bowed his waist and retreated humbly to the door.

"I'll go with you too." The worry on Shen Ci's brows remained undiminished. As soon as he took a step, there was a sharp pain in his heart and lungs. gradually eased.

Shen Xin said, "You have to try to be as calm as possible, restlessness will stimulate the revival of Gu worms."

"My heart is about to jump out, how can I be peaceful." Shen Ci gritted his teeth and got up and said, "I really want to break his legs to see if he is still running around!"

Shen Ci followed the dead man along the path to the east to find it.This path is so narrow that only one person can pass through it, and the two of them will be scraped by the crazy growth of dead branches and leaves on both sides of the path.According to what the dead man said, if Xu Qinghan went to the border, even if he was not caught by the guards closely guarding the border, he would still be stabbed to death by layers of guards, and the consequences would become more serious one by one.

The more Shen Ci thought about it, the more frightened he became, and impatiently flew past like a magpie stepping on a branch, barely touching the ground.The dead man was half-running and half-lightly hanging behind, and was thrown farther and farther away. The eyes that looked at Shen Ci's back began to be mixed with surprise and envy. How pure internal strength is it that can support his unscrupulous consumption?

In fact, Shen Ci was not as relaxed as the dead man thought, the Gu worms began to wake up, and countless little claws stabbed and scratched at the tip of his heart, how could the feeling be so ecstasy?The reckless squandering of internal energy caused the internal energy in his meridians to flow like a flood, and the feeling of deficit became more and more intense, and he kept chasing with all his breath.

The shadows of trees passing by on both sides of the road made him dizzy even more.Suddenly a figure like a black dot appeared in front of him, his heartstrings suddenly tightened, and he shouted angrily, "Xu Qinghan!"

The figure stopped as expected, turned around and waved at him.

Shen Ci heaved a long sigh of relief, and squatted on the ground to rest for a while, then anger filled his heart instead of worry.He strode up to Xu Qinghan and asked coldly with a sullen face, "What are you doing here?"

Seeing Shen Ci's cold attitude, the smile on Xu Qinghan's face gradually faded when he saw him for the first time, and he raised the wooden barrel in his right hand a little bit, and said in a daze, "I... I'm thirsty after I got up. The water in the tank is too astringent, I can’t get used to it, so I want to get some water to drink. I saw the word “Yingyue Mountain Waterfall” engraved on the stone tablet at the intersection, and I guess there will be fresh mountain spring water here.”

Shen Ci raised his hand and violently knocked down the wooden barrel in his hand, and asked relentlessly, "Who told you to come out and wander around, huh? You're going to die just to drink water?!"

Xu Qinghan subconsciously took two steps back, watching the broken bucket bounce around on the ground, and finally grumbled a dozen steps away.Shen Ci hit the back of his hand with all his strength, and the back of his hand covered with welts suddenly turned red.He stroked the back of his hand and pressed it lightly, pursed his lips and looked directly at Shen Ci and said, "Why do you hit me again, is it wrong for me to drink water?"

Shen Ci glared at him, "Is it a matter of drinking water or not? You're such an adult and you still don't know what's wrong with you?"

Xu Qinghan argued, "Why can't I come out to get some air? I just came here to get some water and didn't cause any trouble. Why are you doing this to me!"

Shen Ci's thin lips were almost drawn into a line, and the words were bitten out word by word, "You really want to piss me off, do you think you are still in the palace and can do whatever you want?"

"I'm just fetching water, what's wrong with me?" Xu Qinghan bit his lower lip and retorted, "I'm not a prisoner, so you want me to stay close to that little room?"

"What are you not a prisoner?" Shen Ci asked mercilessly.

"Then lock me in the stone room, so that I won't run around!" Xu Qinghan turned around in anger and didn't look at Shen Ci, kicking the stones on the side of the road again and again.

"Hey, are you still scaring me?" Shen Ci glanced at the dead man chasing him, and temporarily swallowed the rest of his words.

The dead man looked at the two confronting each other, raised his eyebrows and said, "The subordinate's task is completed, so I will go back and report to the master. His Highness King Yan will be handed over to Young Master Xiao again."

Shen Ci said, "Go back and tell your master, I will teach His Royal Highness Yan Wang what not to do, and this kind of thing will not happen again in the future, let him bother. Also, I want to borrow the stone room. Live in the stone room."

"Your subordinate will tell you the exact words." The dead man clasped his fists and left.

Shen Ci conveniently broke a dry branch on the side of the road, and squeezed five or six points of strength to smack Xu Qinghan's back, "Go back!"

Xu Qinghan was caught off guard and staggered two steps, touched the hot spot on his back with his backhand, stared at Shen Ci with wide eyes, his lips were trembling with anger, "You hit me!"

"Find it yourself!" Shen Ci threw away the branch, grabbed Xu Qinghan's wrist and dragged it back, "Tell you why you have an attitude of 'I don't listen to me, I'm right, what can you do to me', and force me to be rough, right? ?”
