hot…

So hot…

This was Shen Lingyuan's first reaction when he regained his subtle consciousness, and when he opened his eyes, he was on a cliff, and what he was stepping on was billowing magma.

Shen Lingyuan felt extremely uncomfortable, he was like a boiled scorpion waiting to be shelled, his whole body was red, as if he would burst to death if he stayed here for a while longer.

Shen Lingyuan struggled to climb up to get out of this hot place, but when his upper body succeeded in exerting force, he heard footsteps.

As soon as Shen Lingyuan raised his head, a familiar white figure appeared above his head, a pair of light-colored eyes stared at him unblinkingly, staring at him.

Finally, he slowly stretched out a hand.

Shen Lingyuan was pleasantly surprised and freed a hand to hold it tightly, but unexpectedly, the man pushed him lightly with no expression on his face, and threw him off the cliff into the fiery magma.

"Do not……"

"No!" Shen Lingyuan roared, and with the intense burning sensation on his back, he sat up abruptly and opened his eyes, panting violently.

He shook his head, trying to wake himself up a bit, but there was a cloud of water vapor in front of him, and he couldn't see clearly. Only then did Shen Lingyuan realize that he was soaking in a pot of boiling hot water.

The strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine hits the nostrils.

Shen Lingyuan couldn't help poking his nose, and raised his left hand in confusion to bring out a handful of trickling water. It was not difficult to find that the water quality of the medicinal bath was black, and there were some light medicinal materials floating on the water surface, most of which were Shen Lingyuan's. Yuan has seen them but can't name them, only knows that they are very valuable.

At this moment, the heavy wooden door was opened with a creak, and Shen Lingyuan looked around with his forehead, only to see a woman walking in, whose figure looked familiar.

He had doubts in his heart, and observed carefully. After seeing the girl's face clearly, his phoenix eyes suddenly raised his head, and he leaned his hand on the basin wall and exclaimed: "Why are you here!"

The woman raised her eyes when she heard the sound, and saw that the person was already awake through the door curtain. There was a flash of surprise in her beautiful eyes, and then she rolled her eyes and smiled softly: "What's the matter, Mr. Lu, why are you so surprised? Haven't we met many times before?" You bought my candied fruit at the market that day, and you fought with me a few days ago, as for what I do here, don’t you still have a clear idea?”

The sudden violent movement affected the wound on the right eye again, Shen Lingyuan had to squint one eye, and looked at the woman in front of him with difficulty, and suddenly found that the dark purple on her lower body pinned to the waist was not an accessory at all, but a long whip .

Who would have thought that the submissive little girl at the market, who dared not show her breath after seeing her, would be the same person as the female assassin who was agile and cunning.

After Shen Lingyuan realized the reality, he collapsed powerlessly in the water, and after a long silence, he slowly said: "So you are not a candied fruit seller at all, you are also Shen Yanqing's."

Brother Xiao read it right.

Su'e shrugged her shoulders, stopped talking, quickly opened the covering curtain, went straight around the bathtub, and threw a bunch of bottles and cans on the table without looking sideways.

Then I heard the sound of running water behind me.

She glanced back suspiciously, and saw Shen Lingyuan folded his hands on his chest, looking at her very vigilantly, Su'e suddenly sneered: "My lord, you don't have to hide anything, let's not mention that the medicine bath itself is I can't see anything in black, and I'm not interested in the little boy who just fell in love. It's just that I have to untie your cartilage powder after receiving the order."

Shen Lingyuan shrank back into the water again, then let down his guard a little bit, and asked, "Cartilage powder?"

All kinds of powders in Su'e's hand were mixed, but her movements were skillful, and she explained while configuring: "It means literally, when you and I were fighting the day before yesterday, I got a poisonous sting from my whip on the wrist, although the little girl cut it out for you. The carrion was removed, but the toxin is still in the body, otherwise why do you think you fainted?"

It's okay if Su'e didn't say anything, but when he mentioned Honghuan, Shen Lingyuan's head ached even more, and even his eye circles were red, but he still insisted and asked, "Where is Honghuan, how is she?"

"You still have the mind to care about others." Su'e prepared the antidote, turned around and saw the boy with a wrong expression.

She was already quite annoyed by Shen Lingyuan's arrival, but now her tone was even more impatient, "The teacher has already allowed them to go back to each house and find their own masters, and they will leave the day after tomorrow."

Hearing this, Shen Lingyuan let go of his hanging heart and closed his eyes a little to relieve the pain.

"However, if someone really doesn't want to leave, we can't make things difficult for them." Su'e may not see Shen Lingyuan's kindness, and she slightly raised the corners of her mouth after she finished speaking.

Shen Lingyuan opened his eyes suddenly, staring at Su'e with a pair of phoenix eyes, "What do you mean by that?"

That sharp gaze made Su'e's heart tense, and she froze in place for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses and threw a palm-sized pill in her hand to Shen Lingyuan, "It's not interesting. It's time for you to take your medicine!"

After Shen Lingyuan took the pill, he looked down, and his two beautiful sword eyebrows were instantly twisted together. He turned around and asked Su'e: "Can this be eaten?"

Su'e folded her hands on her chest and curled her mouth, leaning on the table: "Don't worry, I don't dare to poison Lord Hou's male favourite."

It's just that it was a bit big when I was in a daze, and it won't kill you, so don't worry!

"Hehe." The woman gave a guilty laugh and clapped her hands, "My mission is complete, you should hurry up and get ready to go out, it's not good to make people outside wait in a hurry."

"Is there someone waiting for me outside?"

"Hmm." After speaking, Su'e raised her neck like a proud black-hearted white swan, and walked out of the room with graceful steps.

Before leaving, she gave Shen Lingyuan a meaningful look.

The look seemed to say: 'Good luck? '

Looking at the woman's back, Shen Lingyuan lowered his eyes, not paying attention to Su'e's last expression.

As for the medicine.

These people want to kill him as easily as crushing an ant, trying to choke him to death with such a big pill?

It's really not necessary.

Shen Lingyuan picked up the pill in his hand without any hesitation, crushed it with his palm, swallowed it with difficulty, and walked out of the tub.

The drops of water dripped along the curves of the young body into the fiery red, and were absorbed in an instant and disappeared without a trace.

Walking around the smoky tub, I saw clean linen and clothes on the bed, as well as scattered accessories on his body.

Shen Lingyuan went to the bed and picked up a long cloth to wipe his body, but found that even the peacock feather pendant Shisan gave him was there, except for the silver cloud pattern dagger.

Thinking about it, it should have been thrown in Qing'an Hall that night.

Thinking of what happened in Qing'an Hall, he couldn't avoid thinking of Shen Yanqing's face. Shen Lingyuan had another headache. He threw down the cloth, changed his clothes, and prepared to go out.

But on the hanger at the door, I saw a blue cloak hanging there quietly, and something seemed to flash in my mind.

'Shen Yanqing, I hate you. '
