When the original novel meets the hegemony of the fandom

be careful. "Ao Qi obeyed Qi Ao almost unconditionally in this respect, not to mention Qi Ao's rare expression, Ao Qi naturally complied solemnly, and finally comforted Qi Ao.

On the second day, the two of them went into the Dongfang Mansion under Dongfang Qing's personal welcome, and met with the owner of the Dongfang Mansion, Dongfang Taihong.

Dongfang Taihong is a typical Lianjiazi, with a straightforward personality and a good father who loves his daughter.Although he is over fifty years old, he probably has a strong body due to long-term martial arts training, ruddy complexion, and hearty laughter. At the beginning, he looked at Qi Ao with a sense of relief from seeing his son-in-law. He sighed regretfully and gave up looking at Qi Ao.Then he talked about the incident of Qianyue Villa. Although he was not familiar with Qianyue Villa, when talking about the old owner of Qianyue Villa, he spoke with admiration for his senior, and even said that he was investigating the murderer in Dugu Aoqi. If you need any help from him, you can just ask. This makes Ao Qi, who has heard too much flattery and flattery, have a lot of affection for this martial arts leader.

Dongfang Qing hadn't seen Ao Qi last time, and she only heard that Ran Ran accidentally mentioned in the correspondence with Ran Ran that "Mr. Gu" met a man who looked exactly like him but was very fierce. He was from Qianyue Villa. Fourth son.I was really shocked when I saw the two of them. I never thought that there are really two people in this world who are unrelated but seem to be carved out of a mill.

It's just that after being in contact with Dugu Aoqi for a long time, she gradually remembered something.

☆, Oriental

Dongfang Taihong loves martial arts like an idiot, so there is a special library in Dongfang Mansion. There are many rare martial arts cheats in the world, and there are many unique books in the world. When I went in, I didn't look at those cheat books, I held a few books of stories and read them with relish all day long.On that day, Qi Ao plunged into the study again, Ao Qi had nothing else to do and decided to go out, he could only go to find out if there was any news about his enemies, but Dong Fang Qing stopped him.

Dongfang Qing waved her hand to make all the surrounding maidservants retreat, leaving only her and Aoqi.The Dongfang Mansion is very large, and there is a Mrs. Dongfang who is exquisite and elegant. Everywhere in the mansion has been carefully managed by her, which can be called a step by step and a scene.At this time, Dongfang Qing and Ao Qi were sitting in a small pavilion by the lake. In the distance were willow trees on the lake embankment and large green lotus leaves. It was not the season of lotus, but it was more refreshing.

Dongfang Qing didn't speak for a long time, and Ao Qi also admired the beautiful scenery around him indifferently, and finally Dongfang Qing spoke first: "What is your plan to get close to Brother Gu? Pulled into this muddy water?" In Dongfang Qing's eyes, Mr. Gu should be a leisurely and elegant scholar who hides between the mountains and rivers, takes the sky and the earth as his hut, wears the sun and the moon as his clothes, walks and stops, laughs and laughs, how could he be so unreasonable? Has something to do with Dugu Aoqi, the god of evil.

Ao Qi glanced at her coldly, completely ignoring her doubts, and said what he had already said with Qi Ao: "I met Qi Ao on the way out. They look so alike, so my heart is born..."

"Brother Gu has never heard of you mentioned by him during the few days we were together. If it is said that we met before, but you, the fourth son of Qianyue Villa, only stepped out of Qianyue Villa before because of the Baiyan Villa. Once, and that time, I never heard that other people approached your group. You can only deceive that little girl, Ran Ran." Dongfang Qing sharply pointed out Aoqi's flaws, and immediately added another sentence , "You were the one who drove me away that night."

After her observations over the past few days, she found in Aoqi the feeling of "Mr. Gu" who suppressed her that day, and relying on some information collection, she decisively overturned Aoqi's so-called "familiar at first sight, can't bear to get close" "The argument.Speaking of it, it was still a little girl's mind at play. Although Dongfang Qing quickly adjusted her mentality after being rejected at that time, but after all, she was reluctant to terminate the contact with such an outstanding boy, so she proposed to use the righteous brother and sister's love in the future. get along with identity.Then I told myself this over and over again on the way home, and in the end I really wrapped up the love in my heart in the coat of loyalty.

Such a free and easy behavior, even when she recalled it occasionally, she applauded Dongfang Qing at that time.When she heard about the death of Dugu's family, the first thing she thought of was hearing from Ran Ran that Big Brother Gu and Dugu Aoqi had made friends as companions, so she proposed to Brother Gu to invite him to come to her as a younger sister who cared about her brother-in-law. At home, the fact that Dugu Aoqi came with her was within her expectation.But as her understanding of Lonely Aoqi gradually deepened, her doubts also increased. Finally, one day Dongfang Qing began to think that the refusal might not have been said by Qi Ao. There was also a small cluster of hope in my heart.

After Dongfang Qing said the above words, she couldn't help but feel a little complacent. She always believed that Brother Gu must have been restrained and forced by Dugu so he had no choice but to follow him. Having been challenged by herself, as long as Dugu Aoqi panicked, she would have a chance to keep Big Brother Gu.

"Oh?" Ao Qi looked at the proud young girl in front of him, but there was a trace of disdain in his heart. He has always disliked these women who want to get close to Qi Ao's delusions and distract Qi Ao's mind. This person is too self-righteous, which makes him have to Even more disgusted, "So what. Qi'ao is mine, and no one can protect Qi'ao except me. This is all you deserve to know."

Maybe it was because the dark and violent emotions in the words were too much, Dongfang Qing, the daughter of the majestic martial arts leader, was frightened and couldn't move for a moment, and could only watch Ao Qi walk out of the pavilion.

At Dongfang Qing's invitation, they had dinner outside the residence that night, but the atmosphere was so weird that Qi Ao couldn't ignore it.

Qi Ao looked suspiciously at the sullen Dongfang Qing, then turned to look at Ao Qi who seemed to be admiring the fiery trees and silver flowers outside the window.

When Dongfang Qing looked over in a blink of an eye, he saw Brother Gu and Ao Qi talking together in a low voice, and then Brother Gu gave Ao Qi a disapproving look, with a smile on his face, the distance between the two It's not too far apart, Ao Qi sometimes points to the scenery outside the window and asks Qi Ao to look at it, Qi Ao even supports Ao Qi's shoulders with his hand to pass Ao Qi, the upper body is almost attached to Ao Qi's body, or It was Qi Ao who saw that Ao Qi's cup was empty and helped him fill it up, and when he ate something delicious, he would definitely grab Ao Qi Sai and stuff it into his mouth.

Brother Gu is a bit different when he is with Dugu Aoqi and when he is with them, even though Dongfang Qing doesn't want to admit it, eyes can't deceive anyone.

Dongfang Qing was a little annoyed, after much deliberation, she couldn't figure out how Brother Gu knew such an evil star and got along so closely with him after she left.But it seems that what Dugu Aoqi said is not a lie, their relationship is really...extraordinary, is it really like what Lonely Aoqi said, "They look so alike, so they are close in heart"?And since the last time, every time she gets close to Big Brother Gu, Ao Qi always exudes low pressure from the side.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that the relationship between the two of them is indescribably weird, and the thousands of thoughts in my head don't have a source, and in the end they only turned into Dongfang Qing's sigh.

"This is the famous Lantern Festival in Luoling." Retracting her thoughts, Dongfang Qing continued to perform her host's work.Aoqi and the others came by coincidence, they had just lived here for less than half a month and caught up with the Luoling Lantern Festival. Dongfang Taihong specially asked Dongfang Qing to take them for a stroll.Although Luoling is not as prosperous as Ganjing as a companion capital, it is rarely comparable in the Central Plains.Among them, the Lantern Festival held every two years is the most famous.For three days in mid-June, the lanterns are lit every night. At this time, the trees on the street are covered with lanterns made by families of various colors, and the women dressed up by the river dye the river passing through the city with powder. Fragrance, candle heart lotus flowers are swaying and floating in the river.Except for those dressed-up women who enjoy flowers along the street, there are also a group of daughters who will write the names of their lovers in the lanterns. If they happen to be discovered by their lovers, it will naturally make a good marriage.

It is a kind of fun to visit lanterns on the street, and some people don't like the bustling crowds, so there is another project of Lantern Appreciation River.The so-called River of Appreciation of Lanterns means spending a lot of money to get a good location. Sitting upstairs and watching the people coming and going below, it seems that the river composed of lanterns is really flowing slowly, interacting with the river lanterns slowly floating in the river. Set off, don't have some fun.This kind of thing is novelty at first sight, and prosperous at second sight. Apart from Qianjing, only Luoling can afford such a scene.

"There are a lot fewer people than before. I once heard my father say that when Luoling was at its most prosperous, the lanterns could go around the city five times, and they never went out for three days and three nights." It's just that the harvest has been lacking in recent years. , The world is gradually getting worse.It is said that the rivers and lakes have nothing to do with the imperial court, but the world is one world after all.Dongfang Qing was sad for a while, then lifted her spirits and continued, "However, there are still a lot of Jianghu people here. Tomorrow, my father will hold a banquet in the mansion for martial arts heroes. Come then." Tomorrow happens to be the Lantern Festival The second day was also the busiest day as usual.

Sure enough, many people from the martial arts came one after another the next day. Qi Ao discussed with Ao Qi the night before, and decided to stay in the room obediently and not go out to wander around. Beside Aoqi, even Dongfang Qing can doubt what they said, which also shows that their explanation is not perfect. There are many masters in the rivers and lakes. One thing is worse than one thing. What everyone wants to see is a lonely person living under the fence. Dugu Aoqi, Qi Ao thought that there was no need to appear on the stage.

Before the flowers under the moon, Qi Ao lit the candle in front of him, then propped his head on one hand and slowly flipped through the book in his hand, maybe it was because of the light, Qi Ao felt his eyelids twitch after reading it for a long time. My heart was also beating uneasily.He raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, looking at the moon, he felt inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, as if it was a sign of something.

The voices of people outside the courtyard had gradually quieted down from the noise, and the few people who booked rooms in the inn in the city basically left, and many martial arts people who came from afar to enjoy the lanterns stayed in the Dongfang Mansion.Qi Ao calculated the time, normally it would be the time for bedtime, but Ao Qi didn't come back for a long time.Probably the secret envoy sent by Aoqi sent him a message in the middle of the banquet, saying that Dongfang Taihong was too interested to stay and talk with him for a while, and would come back later, but it was not clear how late.

Thinking about this, Qi'ao panicked again. Fortunately, he put away the book and wanted to take the candlestick and enter the room. As soon as he got up, he heard a tragic scream from the direction of the Dongfang Taihong Courtyard. Qi'ao's heart moved. It was the calm water surface that was finally broken, exposing the dark bottomless bottom below.It was too late to suppress the emotions in his heart, Qi'ao's body had already acted before his thoughts.Taking out the mask from his pocket and buckling it on, Qi'ao crossed the roof with his toes little by little, like a bird under the moon, galloping towards that direction at the fastest speed.

Along the way, he saw the dark rooms of martial arts practitioners who were going to sleep, and after hearing the voice, they lit up the lights again.

Ao Qi's room is far away from the owner's yard, even though Qi Ao used [-]% of his energy to fly to the vicinity of Dongfang Taihong's yard at the fastest speed, when he arrived there, there was already a blazing fire in the vicinity of Dongfang Taihong's bedroom. The servants of the torches were surrounded layer by layer, standing in the middle of the courtyard was Aoqi in black, who was glared at by a group of people who were gnashing their teeth. Apart from these people present, there was also a crying maidservant sitting at the door of Dongfang Taihong's room.

Qi'ao's first reaction was to habitually rush to Aoqi's side and stand side by side with him, but just as he was about to reveal himself, he suddenly remembered his current identity, so Qi'ao gritted his teeth unwillingly and hid in the shadows.

Gradually, the martial arts people also gathered in the courtyard, asking what happened.A group of servants surrounding Aoqi yelled at each other, and Qi Ao suppressed the rare irritability in his heart to clarify the matter: the servants patrolling at night found Aoqi with a strange expression next to the room at the door of the lord’s courtyard, But in view of the leader's attitude towards Lonely Aoqi these days, everyone just greeted Aoqi and asked him to go back to rest early. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, they heard a shrill scream from the maid Yunzhu who had just entered the room. Then there was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground in the room. When everyone rushed in to see, the lord was already lying on the ground and died. The sound of the heavy object falling to the ground just now must have been the lord's body falling from the chair to the ground. Everyone stopped immediately Ao Qi who has not left yet.

When Qi Ao fully understood the cause and effect, everyone's discussion somehow changed from confusion to "Dugu Aoqi is a murderer", "Maybe he was the one who built Qianyue Villa, and now he uses this He was recruited to deal with the lord, but we caught him." Words like sharp arrows pierced Ao Qi who was standing alone in the middle, and turned into blades cutting Qi Ao's heart piece by piece.Qi Ao felt dizzy for a while, and couldn't hear anything in his ears, and he was filled with insulting words to Ao Qi, each sentence became more unpleasant.

Qi Ao looked at the expressionless Ao Qi who was under heavy siege, and at the same time listened to those obscenities, but this time his usually indifferent temper could not control the more he listened and became more and more angry, and felt his heart throbbing while breathing. , hands clenched into fists in the sleeves and trembling uncontrollably, this is the first time that I hate myself so much for not being able to stand uprightly and share the responsibility with Ao Qi.He took all precautions, never expected to be planted in such a cliché circle, but the more vulgar the more useful, what everyone saw was Dugu Aoqi walking out of Dongfang Taihong's yard, and then Dongfang Taihong died , the middle connection is seamless.Now that there are witnesses, there is still one physical evidence...

☆, change

The torch burned more and more violently, Ao Qi stood in the crowd without saying a word, not only did the flame not illuminate his side, it seemed to aggravate the darkness around him even more.He just stood quietly in the middle of the darkness, isolating others from himself, his cold eyes swept over the surrounding people whose facial features were distorted by emotions.It's just that at a certain moment Aoqi's eyes flickered, a trace of nervousness flashed across the eyes covered by Bingshuang, he couldn't help staying on the figure in the shadow for a second, and then he frowned slightly as if confirming something, Only then calmly looked away, and returned to the state of looking into the distance with a blank face.

The crowd that was swept away by Ao Qi's eyes suddenly became quiet again. They talked a lot, but nothing could be heard clearly.

After a while, the maid Ru Ju came out of the room with the help of Dongfang Qing, who was pale and bloodless.It is estimated that she came in a hurry just after returning to the room or even before sitting down. Dongfang Qing was still in a fiery red body, the makeup on her face had not been removed, and her bright red lips set off her pale face, making her look even more confused. , like a spring flower that has just bloomed in the sun was hit by a sudden autumn frost overnight, and is about to wither, and her footsteps are like stepping on cotton, one foot is deep and the other is shallow.

The lanterns outside the city were still brightly lit, joyful and peaceful, but Dongfang Qing's joyful heart in Dongfang Mansion had turned cold.

Pursing her lips, Dongfang Qing looked at Ao Qi whose back was still facing her back. The anger in her eyes was like a raging sea under a storm. After several changes, her emotions finally stabilized. Every word she uttered I can't wait to eat Aoqi's bones: "According to my father's wounds, the person who assassinated my father was a man, and the martial art he used was... Liuhua Zhanyunjian, killing him with one blow."

This sentence is not long, but it carries a lot of weight. In the hearts of martial arts practitioners, it is the evidence against Dugu Aoqi.

So the eyes of those martial arts people looking at Aoqi quickly changed from suspicion to excitement and panic. The excitement is that everyone wants to see this young hero who has obtained the Shuanglong Chiyu Sword for a long time. Killed with one blow, one can imagine how superb his martial arts are.

Among the onlookers present, only one person was in a completely different state of mind at this moment.

Qi Ao, who hid himself as a shadow, heard these words, and his heart seemed to clear up layers of fog, and he knew that if it was really Liuhua Zhanyunjian, it must not be Aoqi.However, if this is really used as evidence for refutation, how to explain that Aoqi's sword is Liuyunzhan Huajian instead of Liuhuazhanyunjian, it will inevitably involve many old events in the Jianghu, and I am afraid that it will be in the Jianghu again. There was a storm.

Everyone's expressions were different, but Ao Qi was still calm, he didn't even look back, and said behind him: "Miss Dongfang, do you believe me or not?"

"So what if you believe it? So what if you don't believe it?" Dongfang Qing looked at Ao Qi's back, seeing that he had never turned to her to show any respect at this moment, she was thinking about something over and over again, as if there was a mouthful of blood in her chest, and said The words that came out gradually smelt bloody, "There are all witnesses and material evidence, and you still want to deny it?"

Ao Qi put it on the cold sword hilt and rubbed it slowly, and he let out an indistinct laugh from his throat, as if he was laughing at her, and he was also laughing at these wretched people who can be seen at a glance by dissection, "On the day when I am cleared of my grievances, I want you to apologize to me one by one." The aura contained in the words made many martial arts seniors tremble unknowingly, and then they realized how arrogant this man was. , suddenly furious.

Someone just wanted to grab this fledgling boy who didn't know the heights and heights of the world, and saw Aoqi's figure flickering in front of his eyes. Before everyone could see what he was doing, a gust of wind blew in his face, and when he focused his eyes again, he was already at ten o'clock. Zhang outside.

Qi Ao, who had been holding his breath for a long time, let out a breath, turned around and looked at Dongfang Qing who was on the verge of collapse, and couldn't bear it. Her grief was ten times more painful than Ao Qi's performance.

However, on the opposite side to Ao Qi, Ao Qi is the most important after all.

Qi Ao closed his eyes and stopped looking at Dongfang Qing, and quickly returned to the room in the dark, leaving only the trembling mottled tree shadows behind.

a few days later.

Ao Qi carefully read the message sent by the emissary word by word, pressed his forehead for a while before slowly exhaling the breath he was holding in his heart, and took a few deep breaths to try to suppress the irritability brought by the news Going down, he finally couldn't help but kicked against the wall.

The rain outside the window was getting heavier and heavier. A kind-hearted passer-by who once lived here had planted a few clumps of bamboo next to this ruined temple, and it has grown densely until now. The clump of green bamboos became more and more verdant under the washing of the rain, and the bamboo leaves trembled wildly under the rain, and the water droplets rolled down the tips of the bamboo leaves, gradually connecting into a thin line.There are no people passing by in the countryside, and now it just happens to be raining. The bamboo forest surrounds the temple and is immersed in its unique quiet charm. Only the sound of rain is the only sound around. Listen carefully. The difference between falling on bamboo leaves and hitting the ground, the air is mixed with the fishy smell of soil and the fresh smell of rainwater, the firewood last night has long been extinguished, and the smell of smoke from burning firewood in the humid air has gradually faded away. dispersed.

This dilapidated temple is not particularly dirty. It is probably too remote and even beggars don’t bother to settle here—I’m afraid they will starve to death if they can’t get food. Therefore, apart from being a little dilapidated and dusty and cobwebs, they can settle down after cleaning.There is also dry straw piled up in the corner, which is just enough for people to rest. Even though it is a bit cramped to sleep on, it is not unbearable.

Ao Qi looked at the genius and found that the morning had passed, guessing that the person would come again soon, so he put away the note passing the news with him, sat down in front of the extinguished fire, closed his eyes and wanted to adjust his breath Unknowingly, he began to recall the past few days after he came out of Dongfang Mansion.

On the second day after he came out of the Dongfang Mansion, he saw an overwhelming reward order on the street. The five sects jointly offered a reward to assassinate Lonely Aoqi, the leader of the martial arts. Those who have clues will be rewarded. If they can use his things as evidence ——For example, the double dragon red feather sword, the reward is doubled.Being arrested by the five sects jointly, this momentum cannot but be described as huge.

Aoqi can't deny this, if he really meets him, he won't be afraid, but he wants to find the evidence to prove himself faster, and the sooner he finds the evidence, the sooner he can go back to Dongfang Mansion to prove himself and pick up Qi Ao by the way .The reason why he chose to leave Liuqiao alone in the Dongfang Mansion on his own initiative this time is because he knew that Qiao would be much more comfortable with Dongfangqing taking care of him than being by his side, and there was no need to use his hands to collect evidence. When Qi'ao was worried about him, he only had to wait a few days for Dongfang Taihong to be buried, and he could see Dongfang Taihong's body at a glance.In order to solve this problem as soon as possible and reduce the waste of time, Ao Qi gave up the avenue full of arrest warrants, which is easy to be found, and chose to take a small road.

He was on his way that day, and on the way, he met a group of thieves surrounding a young disciple who didn't know which sect.Those thieves probably looked at this young disciple's tender seedlings, his cheeks could pinch water, and even if they robbed the money, they would even touch the young disciple.Ao Qi watched the play for a while, and felt that the expressions of those bandits who were slobbering and swallowing really made him sick, because he couldn't understand Ao Qi killing these bandits who blocked the way, the child saw He was about to be insulted by the thieves, and suddenly the gods from heaven rescued him from the hands of the thieves. At that time, the little disciple recognized Ao Qi as his great benefactor, and chased Ao Qi over two or three small hills without stopping. Yes, he kept shouting that his benefactor should repay his kindness.

Ao Qi naturally didn't take him seriously.

Later they passed a small town, the little disciple followed behind Ao Qi for some reason and stopped shouting, just looked at him eagerly, and was very nervous when he saw someone passing them by, until that night when the little disciple Only then did the disciple say a word to Aoqi nervously: "Benefactor, are you the one on the reward order?"

Ao Qi ignored him, and he asked a few times relentlessly, only then did Ao Qi say "hmm" as a promise.The next morning Aoqi woke up and found that the little tail behind him was gone. He didn't feel anything, but he was happy to relax. Unexpectedly, the kid came over again at noon, with a pile of food in his hand.

"Benefactor, it's not safe for you to go to the town. I'm here to help you buy food. Let's see if it's still hot." The little disciple's big black and white eyes were full of trust and sincerity.

At the beginning, Ao Qi only thought that the child was talking casually, besides, he killed those bandits at the beginning purely because he wanted to kill them, and had nothing to do with him.After yesterday's incident, the child actually wanted to repay him, which made Ao Qi face up to this child who had been with him for a few days for the first time.Without going through Aoqi's clichés, the little disciple quickly told about the eight generations of his ancestors.

This little disciple is the youngest disciple of the Shuijing Sword Sect, one of the five sects. His name is Ning Ziyun. It is said that he was sent to the Shuijing Sword Sect by his parents as soon as he was weaned. He was brought up by the head of the Sect, so If calculated according to the entry time, Ning Ziyun is no shorter than those senior brothers and senior sisters, but in terms of age and learning martial arts, Ning Ziyun has to be ranked last.

The head of the sect loves the child he brought up with his own hands very much, and even worried that Ning Ziyun would suffer from practicing martial arts, so Ning Ziyun only started to learn the martial arts swordsmanship the year before last. With Ji Bei's indifferent heart, on the surface the head of the sect is indifferent to Ning Ziyun and even a little distant.Under the guidance of the head master, Ning Ziyun has just mastered a little swordsmanship after studying for two years. Seeing the happy faces of the brothers and sisters who came back from the door, he also imitated his fellow brothers and sisters and begged the head to let him go out to "experience for a while." "Fan", finally persuaded the head master to let him travel down the mountain, but the first time he went down the mountain, he encountered a bandit.

"Thanks to my benefactor for helping me out of this predicament." Ning Ziyun's pure eyes were full of admiration for Ao Qi when he said this, without concealing it.

"Then why don't you tell your masters after you know who I am." At this time, Ao Qi was sitting by the campfire watching Ning Ziyun bring out the meal for the day.

Ning Ziyun's expression was tangled for a moment, and then he replied seriously: "I think the benefactor is a good person." He continued with a righteous face, "Besides, the benefactor saved my life, and I betrayed the benefactor instead. This is not what the righteous way can do." Seeing a young and naive face saying such words solemnly, Ao Qi laughed, not knowing whether it was Ning Ziyun's ignorance or just saying that The "right way" in the mouth.

They have maintained this kind of life in the following days. Although it was just a meal, this is already the most that Ning Ziyun can do. Ao Qi didn't say anything about it. Ning Ziyun thought that Ao Qi acquiesced With his way of repaying gratitude, he didn't bother to think about what Aoqi needed more.

☆, reunion

The originally quiet Siye was broken by the sound of messy footsteps, and the sound of stepping on the puddle and splashing water showed how hurried the visitor was.Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer to him, Ao Qi let the qi in his dantian sink slowly and stop the momentum.

Although Aoqi still has his eyes closed, he still has a normal expression on his face. Because of this period of getting along, the little things about the child have already planted a cloud in his mind. Facing those eyes, he will always unconsciously He was subtly influenced, so he deliberately restrained his fierce and fierce aura when he was practicing, and even spoke with a sense of intimacy: "Ning Ziyun, you are here."

After he finished speaking, he realized that the footsteps sounded strangely familiar, and opened his eyes quickly.

The visitor had just stepped into the temple, and was standing in front of Aoqi in a daze.He was holding a clean food box in his arms, but half of his shoulders were drenched by the rain. The paper umbrella he was holding was tilted towards the direction of the food box, trembling all the time, and the paper umbrella fell forward for a while. It tilted back for a while, and he could hardly hold it steady.

It's just that I haven't seen him for a few days, but his chin is much sharper than he remembered, and the thin lines seem to be able to cut through paper.His lips were as white as his face, but there was a thick blue color under his eye sockets, his expression was a little restless, and the moment he saw Ao Qi, his whole body burst out with strong tiredness and exhaustion unabashedly.His eyes seemed to have no strength to find the focus, and when he looked at Aoqi, he seemed to be looking into the distance, and when he spoke, his voice was dry and weak, which was obviously caused by not drinking water for a long time: "I gave Dongfang Qing a life and death gesture, If you don’t find evidence to clear your guilt within [-] days, I’ll make it up for you.”

This sentence seemed to make him breathe out his last breath, and just after he finished speaking, he fell forward like a smashed puppet.

Almost at the same time, Ao Qi felt his breathing stagnate, instinctively he stood up and took a few steps forward, just in time to catch him firmly.

Qi'ao rubbed the cloth under her body, turned over uncomfortably, and muttered something.

He was so tired.

It was always Ao Qi who unilaterally grasped his whereabouts through hints, but he didn't care much about this kind of thing, until this time when Ao Qi left, he realized how troublesome it was that he didn't know about Ao Qi's situation.

In the past few days after coming out of Dongfang Mansion, Qi Ao basically stayed up in order to find Aoqi, and occasionally took a nap, sometimes awake and sometimes confused, and then remembered that he was following Aoqi's secret envoy, so he followed the message. This line was found all the way to Aoqi's side, and it wasted some time in the middle because of many twists and turns.In addition, all the portraits that offered rewards were found along the way, which not only made his whereabouts a lot more inconvenient, several times when he closed his eyes, he dreamed that Ao Qi was discovered in advance by people from the five sects, which made Qi Ao wish for a day It took two days to find Ao Qi quickly, but in the end there was almost only one belief left to support him from falling asleep.

There were two voices behind him, one was Aoqi's, his tone was not as cold as when talking to strangers, and he had a rare kindness and familiarity, the other's voice was the clear and clear voice of a child , like a stream flowing down from the mountains, laughing and laughing so lively.Qi Ao let out a fuzzy sound from his throat with some fatigue, put his hands in front of him, trying to curl them into a smaller ball, avoiding the light coming in from the window, and just as he moved, a palm stretched out , just covering his eyes, blocking the light that disturbed his sleep for him.

It was probably his movement that made others discover his existence, and the voices of the conversation between the two became a little quieter.

"Benefactor, who is that?" Qi Ao's tone was like a curious little animal, and Qi Ao could imagine the sparkling doubts in the other party's eyes and the wagging tail behind him.

Ao Qi suddenly lost the harmony just now, and with a cold "shh", he sent him away without knowing what to say, with the hand covering Qi Ao's eyes behind his back, his thumb was on Qi Ao's face. He stroked his forehead twice.

When Qi Ao woke up from a full sleep, he opened his eyes and saw Ao Qi lying beside him with his head propped on his side, staring at him intently, the color of his eyes was as dark and thick as midnight.Qi Ao reckoned that Ao Qi must have known about his affairs, and now Ao Qi wanted to settle accounts with him, so he simply diverted the conversation first: "Where's that person who was here just now?" However, the physical condition of being weak because of being hungry for too long has become more obvious.

Ao Qi pinched Qi Ao's ears heavily and lightly, seeing Qi Ao's white jade-like ears being dyed pink little by little, and then casually replied: "He is quite obedient, why don't you play with it?" ?”

"Don't be funny, you're not going to plot against a child." Qi Ao glanced at Ao Qi and grabbed his hand, lazily wanting to turn over and lie flat.It's rare for Aoqi to be less like an icy and hard rock to people other than him. This is an interesting thing, but Qi'ao doesn't think there's anything wrong with Aoqi. He just wants to use this The topic diverted Aoqi's attention.

However, things did not go his way.
