Abduct a shadow guard to investigate the case

Lan Yi took two steps forward, walked up to Shen Yao who was floating under his feet and his body was shaking slightly, and grabbed his skirt.

Shen Yao's eyes were blurred, the colorful lights, like silk and forging, like veil like veil, changing gracefully, seeming to be far away in the sky, but also seeming to be close in front of his eyes, filling his entire vision and covering up everything else.

An instinct was yelling "danger, danger" to him, but his whole body was immersed in a light and soft feeling, and he didn't listen to his brain's orders at all.

In Shen Yao's eyes, it was as if he was surrounded by butterfly wings, and the lapel of his chest was drawn by a group of butterflies, and he almost floated upwards, forgetting everything in the world, leaving only joy to occupy the body and mind, making people want to dance.

Looking at Shen Yao, who was immersed in the illusion of drugs and had no power to resist, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were red, and he held a shining dagger in his right hand.

Her voice was full of hatred, sadness and pain, and she clenched Shen Yao's skirt tighter and tighter, and scolded, "He used to be obsessed with medical skills, but it's a pity that he was underappreciated and inferior to others, all he did was manage internal affairs work... He said that after this success, power, status, martial arts, medical skills, everything will be obtained...Dong Lang has painstakingly planned for many years, but you ruined it all at once, I hate...I hate you...!"

Lan Yi raised the dagger in his hand high, pointed it at Shen Yao's heart and stabbed it hard!

The voice in the ear seemed to come from nowhere through a layer of membrane, it sounded so unreal.

who?Greed for power and status, is there some kind of conspiracy?

Dong Lang... Who is it?Some familiar, but can not remember.

In the dreamlike light, Shen Yao felt the chill hit his chest, and the butterfly pulling the skirt was frozen by the cold, and the tip of the ice gradually extended, piercing into his chest, inch by inch, and his chest was dyed a magnificent red, like a gift from a devil. greetings.

Suddenly a trace of clarity appeared in his mind, Shen Yao stretched out his hand suddenly, and grabbed Lan Yi's wrist holding the knife.

"!!!" Lan Yi didn't expect it, and was shocked, but found that Shen Yao's eyes were still unfocused, and he didn't have much power to resist.She quickly pulled out the dagger, blood splashed out of Shen Yao's chest immediately, Lan Yi raised her hand again and stabbed hard——

"Stop!" A loud shout came from behind, and several sharp cold lights came first, shooting directly at Lan Yi's wrist holding the knife and the vitals of his body. jingle" sound.

In the blink of an eye, a black shadow approached her side, passing her by.Lan Yi's waving hand stopped suddenly, her face froze, her eyes widened suddenly, blood gushed out from her throat, and splashed to the heights and surroundings.

The dagger fell to the ground with a clang, Lan Yi covered her throat with her hands with difficulty, blood continued to flow from between her fingers, a few strange echoes came from her throat, and the expression of resentment and unwillingness froze on her face, Her body softened and she fell to the ground.

Xuan Qi dropped the short dagger in his hand, and rushed to the side of Shen Yao who was lying on the ground.

Shen Yao closed his eyes, his face was drained of blood, and his chest was soaked in blood.

Xuan Qi helped Shen Yao into his arms, quickly tapped several large acupuncture points on his chest, his hands trembled uncontrollably.

"Young Master! Young Master!" He kept calling in Shen Yao's ear, and the handsome face that had always been laughing and lively seemed to have fallen into a permanent deep sleep, without any response.

Xuan Qi's liver and gallbladder were torn apart for a moment, and he felt that the pain he had suffered in this life was not as good as the world is collapsing at this moment.

He was panting quickly, with a low wail in his throat, and finally remembered to reach out to test Shen Yao's breath, and after taking a weak breath, Xuan Qi panted slightly, and immediately supported Shen Yao's shoulders and legs to hug him , jumped to the medicine hall doctor's house.

……

The next morning.

There is an exquisite wooden carriage parked at the gate of the villa. It is pulled by two tall horses. The wheels are wrapped with leather, which has a good cushioning effect at first glance.

The drug boy in the medicine hall loaded the last few cans of medicinal materials into the carriage, bowed his head and stepped aside.

Lu Zangming and Jun Mozai stood beside the carriage, saying goodbye to Shi An.

"The medicine hall found a small jar of pale pink drug in Lanyi's residence. It was verified that it was the same drug that was used by the person who kidnapped me in the back mountain that day. Combined with Xuan Qi's testimony, it can be seen that Lan Yi It was Dong Qiqiu's accomplice and the real culprit who killed Shi Bozhong. To avenge Dong Qiqiu, he attacked Mr. Shen." Lu Zangming sighed, with apology and emotion on his face, "Mr. Shen met you in my villa. Assault, Lu is extremely guilty."

"Villager Lu speaks seriously!" Shi An clasped his fists at Lu Zangming and Jun Mozai, "This time, thanks to the great rescue of Master Lu and Hallmaster Jun, my son was able to get through the crisis, Shi An thanked you two again! After finishing speaking, Shi An bowed and saluted.

"I'm ashamed!" Lu Zangming stretched out his hand to help him up, and said, "I would like to ask Uncle Shi to deliver Lu's letter to Master Shen, and then help to pass it on to Master Shen. When there is a chance in the future, Lu will come to visit in person."

"Definitely, Master Lu, please rest assured."

"Uncle Shi, the anesthetic on Mr. Shen still has a few hours of effect. After the effect of the drug wears off, he will wake up. You must take good care of his injuries along the way." Jun Mozhe reminded him, he sighed , said, "If you're not in a hurry, it's better for Mr. Shen to rest in Tibetan Villa for a few more days."

Shi An's complexion moved slightly, and just as he was about to decline, the owner of the Lu villa had already said, "Hey, since Liuyun Villa has made arrangements, I can only ask Uncle Shi to take care of it along the way. Some tonics that were loaded into the car just now, remember Let Mr. Shen take it. Be careful along the way."

Shi An nodded in agreement, exchanged a few more words with Lu and Jun, and then sat in the carriage. He lifted the curtain and looked inward. The interior of the carriage was covered with cushions, which looked very comfortable. Shen Yao lay flat On the mat, the chest was tied with a thick bandage, and some blood was oozing from the heart.With his eyes closed, he slept peacefully, only frowning occasionally.

Shi An closed the curtain, and said goodbye to the carriage again, then raised the whip and gave a "drive", the horse took uneasy steps, and the carriage went leisurely down the mountain.

At the same time, the water prison of Xingtang in the hidden name of the villa.

The dark cell smelled damp and musty, and the outside sunlight could not penetrate at all. Only a few torches cast faint afterglow on the dark water.

There was a stone pillar in the center of the water prison, and a figure was firmly wrapped around the stone pillar by an iron chain. The height of the water surface was precisely adjusted, and it seemed that it was just submerged under his nose.The figure was stripped of his jacket, and his naked body was clinging to the stone pillar. Under the surface of the water, his toes touched the ground, his whole body tensed, and he struggled to raise his body upwards in the gap between the iron chains. He leaned back, stretched out his neck in a slender arc, and pressed the back of his head against the stone pillar. Only in this way could he expose his nose slightly above the water surface and seek a breath of breath. If there was any slack in his body, his mouth and nose would be submerged in water immediately, and he would end up in trouble. It is drowning.

Xuan Qi didn't know how long he had persisted. Several times he was in a trance and sank, and the cold and dirty water immediately choked into his nasal cavity and lungs. He coughed in pain, and struggled to tense his body again. Has begun to convulse and twitch, shaking underwater.

As the owner's personal bodyguard, leaving his post without authorization while on duty is a due punishment.

According to the rules, even if there is no major incident of leaving the post without authorization, the punishment of this kind of water prison must stand for a day and a night, and after getting out of the water, he will be given [-] lashes before the punishment is considered to be over.

For Xuan Qi, the physical pain was far less than the inner suffering.

When he thought of Shen Yao's weak breathing when he took Shen Yao to the medical hut, his heart tightened tightly.He remembered the moment when he put Shen Yao down, the infinite panic in his heart, and also how he kowtowed and begged the medicine hall at a loss.Later, Master Jun came, Master Xue came, and Master Lu also came. Master Lu ordered all-out rescue. Yingtang listened to his intermittent explanations, and finally handed himself over to him on the charge of "absence of duty without authorization". torture hall.

He hated himself for coming too late, causing Shen Yao to suffer such a severe injury, hating himself for not being able to stay by Shen Yao's side all the time, protecting him well, hating himself for being involuntary, even staying to take care of Shen Yao was an extravagant hope.

If the pain in the body is a punishment for himself, he will be happy with it.He kept praying in his heart that nothing would happen to Shen Yao, nothing would happen, and if he didn't get the news of Shen Yao's rescue, the torment in his heart would snowball like a snowball...

With a "squeak", the wooden door of the water prison was pushed open.

Two criminal officers took Xuan Qi out of the water prison. Xuan Qi's hands were still bound by chains. He lost his strength for a moment and fell to the ground in embarrassment. Officer, "Mr. Shen...cough, is Mr. Shen all right?"

"Huh?" The two criminal officers looked at each other, and one of them raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Which Mr. Shen? I only want to execute the punishment for disobedient shadow guards like you. Who cares about your Mr. Shen?"

"!!!" Xuan Qi secretly clenched his fists. If he resists escape now, he can find out about Shen Yao's situation when he goes out, but the villa will not let him go. It will be even more difficult... But if he doesn't know about Shen Yao's life and death, he will really go crazy!

The nails dug into the palm, and the muscles of the forearm also tensed up. Just when Xuan Qi was about to get up, another person walked in.

The visitor held the owner's badge, and said to the two criminal officials, "The owner has an order, Xuan Qi has made meritorious service in saving people, the punishment of whipping will be reduced to thirty, and he will be released after punishment."

"Decree!" The two criminals replied, dragging Xuan Qi to the side of the rack with the chain, and one said, "The owner is kind, you are really lucky."

Xuan Qi turned around and shouted to the shadow guard who sent the order, "Ming Wu, how is Mr. Shen?"

Ming Wu looked at him with a strange expression, and didn't answer right away.

Xuan Qi's voice trembled, and he pleaded, "Ming Wu, please tell me!"

"You're not finished!" The criminal officer pulled Xuan Qi over, grabbed his lute bone with one hand, pressed hard, and pushed him onto the torture rack.

Xuan Qi suffered from pain in his shoulders, cold sweat broke out on his forehead instantly, but his eyes were still staring at Ming Wu pleadingly.

Ming Wu pursed his lips, and said, "Mr. Shen has been saved, and his old servant has brought him home from the village just now."

"..." Suppressing all kinds of doubts in his heart, Xuan Qi let the criminal officer tie himself to the rack, and said "thank you" to Ming Wudao.

Ming Wu lowered his eyes and turned to leave. There was the sound of whipping behind him. He didn't need to turn his head. He could also imagine the scene. The whip bit Xuan Qi's chest, waist and abdomen, tearing flesh and blood, and Xuan Qi clenched tightly. Grinding your teeth, without making a sound, swallowing all the pain into your stomach...

After thirty lashes, old wounds were piled on top of new wounds, blood beads mixed with sewage, and sweat flowed down Xuan Qi's naked upper body.

The executioner untied him, he gasped and stood upright, and walked to the wall to get his coat.

When he put on his clothes and folded up his skirt, he felt something in his clothes——

The sapphire blue kit, the amulet that brought him infinite comfort when he was alone...

Shen Yao once told himself, "Don't open it casually, and don't let others see it casually. If..."

What if?What was Mr. Shen trying to say at that time, why did he call this kit a talisman?

Xuan Qi's hands were still trembling slightly from being tortured, he slowly opened the seal of the kit——

There is a piece of letter paper inside...

"Xuan Qi begs to see the owner!" Outside Lu Zangming's study, Xuan Qi bowed on his knees, his voice tense but firm.
