When the two returned to the West Courtyard of the Sheriff's Mansion, Jiang Linxu and Duan Ye each had a cat in their arms, sitting under the warm autumn sun, chatting about something, very comfortable.

Seeing Ye Huaiyun and Chu Tingyun walk into the courtyard, Jiang Linxu stood up immediately, and the black cat in his hand jumped out of his arms. He squatted on the stone table and looked at Duan Ye's cat, then touched his lips with his probe .

"Brother Yi, where were you two days ago?" Jiang Linxu walked up to them quickly, "I've been looking for you for a long time but I can't find anyone."

Chu Tingyun laughed softly, and suddenly wrapped Ye Huaiyun's waist with the hand that was still on his side, and moved him towards him, "Naturally, it's a date."

Ye Huaiyun's side waist pressed by his fingertips suddenly felt sore and limp, so he also nodded.In exchange for hearing their conversation, Duan Ye sat at the table and looked over with a smile on his face, admiringly saying, "Brother Chu and Brother Ye are really... so excited."

Chu Tingyun looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, and retorted: "Naturally, it's no better than brother Duan having two civet cats in the day and having many beauties to accompany him at night."

Ye Huaiyun knew that Chu Tingyun was suspicious of Duan Ye, so he couldn't pretend to be kind.But Jiang Linxu seemed a little displeased with his words, turned around and narrowed his eyes and said, "Did you invite a beauty to accompany you at night?"

"No." Duan Ye vetoed it in one gulp: "There is absolutely nothing."

"Oh?" Chu Tingyun walked slowly to the stone table and raised his eyebrows, "Then...what happened to the woman on Brother Duan's bed a few nights ago? And the next day, Brother Duan summoned four dressed men at the same time. The tulle girl."

Duan Ye opened his mouth, but before he could say a word, Jiang Linxu looked straight into his eyes, never letting go of his expression.

"I..." Duan Ye twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, so he could only truthfully say, "I called someone, but I definitely did nothing."

Chu Tingyun got the expected satisfactory answer, and finally stopped ridiculing, but Ye Huaiyun's eyes lingered on the two of them. It was only two days since he saw each other. Why did he always feel that the atmosphere between Jiang Linxu and Duan Ye had become so tense? A strange and...unexplained ambiguity?

For example, at this time, after hearing Duan Yewan's sworn promise, Jiang Linxu snorted, picked up one of the black cats stacked on top of each other on the table, and walked back to his room rather arrogantly.

Ye Huaiyun: "..."

If he read correctly, those two cats just now were... in love?

The black cat left behind by the sudden loneliness was very dissatisfied. It landed on its back feet, straightened up, raised its front legs and waved wildly in mid-air, until Duan Ye held him in his arms and stroked his back for a long time before calming down meekly. down.

After seeing such a farce, Ye Huaiyun obviously hasn't forgotten the purpose of their return this time, and said, "Brother Duan..."

But as soon as he spoke, Duan Ye suddenly interrupted, "Brother Ye, wait a moment, I have something to say."

Ye Huaiyun made a gesture of invitation, and Duan Ye said: "I found out that Master Ding is not possessed by evil spirits, but poisoned!"

Hearing this, Ye Huaiyun and Chu Tingyun stood beside each other calmly, with no superfluous expressions on their faces, it all depends on how he wants to get along next.

And Duan Ye looked at them with surprise, "Why aren't you surprised at all?"

Ye Huaiyun didn't want to answer, but Chu Tingyun cooperated very perfunctorily, and said expressionlessly: "Yes, I'm surprised."

"..." Duan Ye was stunned, so he had no choice but to continue boringly: "Just last night, Lin Xu and I found that kind of poison by accident. It's just that I don't know medical skills, and I haven't had time to go out to find a doctor Solve."

Now the two were really surprised. They thought it would take a lot of effort to find the corresponding poison, but they didn't expect it to be easy.It's just that the phrase in Duan Ye's mouth is accidental, it's a matter of opinion.

Seeing Duan Ye talking, Ye Huaiyun took out a small paper bag from his sleeve.After opening, it was some white powder with no smell of medicine.

Ye Huaiyun took the things from him, rewrapped the powder that might disperse in the air at any time, and left the sheriff's mansion with Chu Tingyun in the name of seeking a doctor to prepare an antidote.

Duan Ye watched the figures of the two walk away, and sighed between his pursed lips, his expression unclear.But he put away all his emotions in an instant, then turned around and knocked on Jiang Linxu's door, ready to... explain.

The autumn wind was blowing, and the two walked among the mountains where the forests were full of autumn red.

Holding the paper bag in his hand, Ye Huaiyun murmured: "So far, it seems that Duan Ye wants to help us, but who is he? He insists on helping us in such a roundabout way. The person who was sent out to investigate his background earlier I found nothing, heh, I’m afraid even this name is fake.”

Chu Tingyun was also thinking about this question, repeating the fake name silently over and over again.Duan Ye... Duan... Ye... Ye.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Huaiyun, recalled Duan Ye's appearance, and finally shook his head, he didn't look like her, not even a bit similar.

"I can't guess it either." Chu Tingyun sighed, "But sooner or later the paper won't be able to contain the fire. The most urgent thing is to prepare the antidote first."

Ye Huaiyun nodded. The two of them were about to reach the entrance of the mine at this time. They had the experience of lurking once, and it was much easier the second time.

Zhao Chuyang took the paper bag, sniffed and crushed the powder in it, and looked left and right for a long time.

Chu Tingyun was impatient after waiting, "How is it? Can this poison be cured?"

"You can give it a try." Zhao Chuyang said bluntly: "But I'm not sure that it will succeed." He folded the paper bag and said, "This is mixed with a kind of Gu poison unique to the Southwest. Although I have dabbled in it a little, but I've never touched it before, so..."

"Then give it a try." Chu Tingyun directly interrupted his worries, "It will probably take a few days to match it?"

Zhao Chuyang thought for a while and said: "As long as the medicinal materials are complete, it will not exceed three days."

"Okay." Chu Tingyun replied, and grabbed Zhao Chuyang's arm, intending to take him away from the mine.

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Chuyang stopped Chu Tingyun from being too bold, and said, "That dog thief Tan Jian will come to count the number of people every evening. If there are fewer people, it will definitely arouse suspicion."

"Then I'll make it for you to stay." Without hesitation, Chu Tingyun took off the jade token around his waist and handed it to Ye Huaiyun, "This is a token to command all the hidden guards in Luanxiao Palace. If within three days, What happened to the Ding residence, remember to protect yourself."

"You..." Ye Huaiyun put the piece of jade with the word "Luan" in his palm, and his tentacles warmed up, but he didn't accept it for a long time.

He wasn't worried that Chu Tingyun's martial arts would make any mistakes in the mine, but when he thought of those rotten meals, Ye Huaiyun couldn't bear and didn't want to let this person suffer for three days, pursed his lips and said: " Why don't I stay."

How could Chu Tingyun not know what he was worrying about, smiled and pulled him into his arms, stroked the top of his hair, and his voice was a little doting.

"Don't worry, after I ate those pickled things yesterday, I'm fine, nothing happened. Besides, if Ding Jishui is really rescued, only you can convince him."

Ye Huaiyun breathed in the rotund fragrance on his clothes, and finally nodded.

Chu Tingyun pressed a deep kiss on his forehead before letting go. Counting the time, it was the interval between the officers and soldiers outside the mine to change defenses. He didn't dare to delay any longer, so he let them go quickly.

After Ye Huaiyun brought Zhao Chuyang back to the city, he immediately rented a small medical clinic for Zhao Chuyang to develop antidote.

In contrast, he has become an idler, except for ordering people to find some precious medicinal materials that are not available in the medical center from time to time, or leaning on the bamboo slum, or reading a book for a while, or thinking about what Chu Tingyun is doing at this time .

Three days passed very quickly, when Zhao Chuyang put two black pills on the table in front of him, Ye Huaiyun couldn't help asking: "How sure are you?"

"Fifty percent." Zhao Chuyang replied: "If the patient can open his eyes within two hours after taking the medicine, then he is done. If he can't wake up..."

That is the remaining [-]%, purely depends on God's will.

The chances of winning were really slim, Ye Huaiyun closed his eyes, but as long as he remembered that Chu Tingyun was still suffering in that dark mine, he didn't want to delay for a second, immediately put his things in his sleeves and went to the sheriff go to the government.

At this time, it was time to return to Hongyuan, and the setting sun hung in the sky.

Ye Huaiyun was thinking in his heart, if this medicine could wake up Ding Jishui, they would be able to put an end to Tan Jian's plot in one fell swoop just tonight.

In order to increase the odds of winning, Ye Huaiyun took out the token Chu Tingyun gave him as soon as he returned to the county guard's mansion, and ordered all the hidden guards to leave the city before the key was released at the city gate, and lurk at the foot of the mountain outside the city, ready to be ordered at any time.

Jiang Linxu stared blankly at him frowning and arranging everything. After the shadow guards dispersed, he couldn't help asking curiously, "Your Highness, what happened?"

"It's okay, you stay at the house, just don't go out." Ye Huaiyun didn't have much time to explain to him, so he replied half perfunctorily and half persuasively.

Taking advantage of the gradually darkening sky, Ye Huaiyun sneaked into Ding Jishui's room.

Because he had been ill for too long, no one came into the bedroom that smelled strongly of medicine, which happened to be convenient for him to do things.

Ye Huaiyun stuffed the pill into Ding Jishui's mouth, and poured another glass of water to help him swallow it. After that, he waited for two hours.

He was sitting on the beam, and for some reason, his heart was beating violently, and he was very disturbed.

"Cough cough...cough cough..." Suddenly, there was a rapid and short coughing sound from the bed, and Ye Huaiyun hurried forward to check.

Ding Jishui's eyelids opened little by little, and his vision gradually cleared up. When he saw that the person standing by the bed was Ye Huaiyun, he closed his eyes again, and murmured in a hoarse voice: "I thought I woke up!" , I didn’t expect it was still a dream.”

"..." Ye Huaiyun said lightly: "It's Gu, Mr. Ding is not dreaming."

Hearing this, Ding Jishui opened his eyes abruptly, his lips trembling: "Is it really the palace...the palace...your highness?"

"It's lonely." Ye Huaiyun repeated.

He was too lazy to care about Ding Jishui's mixed emotions at this time, so he directly poured a few tonics from the medicine bottle in his sleeve, poured water into the teacup, and asked Ding Jishui to take it.

Ye Huaiyun watched him recover gradually, and briefly explained the evil things that Tan Jian had done.

"It is my duty to serve Your Highness." Ding Jishui knelt on the bed and said.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Huaiyun saw him knock out a hidden compartment from the wall on the back of the bed, as if he was cracking the mechanism, fumbled for a long time, and finally took out a copper tiger-shaped soldier talisman, and offered it with both hands. .

Ye Huaiyun took the tiger talisman, and first ordered the shadow guards of the East Palace to surround the Juncheng's mansion, and Tan Jian must not be allowed to leave the house.Then he used the Tiger Talisman to summon most of the officers and soldiers of Zhiyang County, and left the city.

He looked up at the sky, the clouds were thin tonight, there was no moon, and the entire mountain was surrounded by the bright silver light of stars.

Ye Huaiyun's pace became faster and faster, and his heartbeat became faster and faster. It seemed that whenever he thought of Chu Tingyun, his heart felt as if a needle had been pricked suddenly, and the bad premonition rose and spread. That person would not... have an accident Alright.

Approaching the mine, Ye Huaiyun pressed his fingers to his lips and whistled softly.

This was the secret signal he had agreed with Chu Tingyun. As long as he blows the whistle, it means that the matter is over, and it also means that Chu Tingyun can come out of the mine.

But this morning, the whistle blew again and again, but no one came out of the cave.

Ye Huaiyun's heart tightened, and he looked at the sky again.

Thin clouds...no moon...

today!It's thirty at the end of the month!It was the day when Chu Tingyun's inner breath was in disorder!
