The Sick Beauty in the Republic of China

After Qi Chensheng finished dealing with the little girl's affairs, he didn't immediately seek trouble with that Aunt Qin.

After the two of them had a simple lunch, Wang Luan couldn't hold on anymore, and was hugged by Qi Chensheng to the bed.

"Go to bed when Brother Nine is sleepy. If there's anything wrong, I'll wake you up again."

Wang Luan coughed lightly a few times, feeling drowsy, but he still couldn't let it go, leaned on Qi Chensheng's chest with half-closed eyes, and whispered: "This is the first day for us to come back. It's too ugly... I don't want to be with you and be kicked out by your old man."

Qi Chensheng naturally knew what he was talking about, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he leaned over and kissed Wang Luan's forehead: "I have a sense of proportion, brother Jiu can sleep in peace."

Wang Luan opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but his body was so tired that he dragged him into a dream.

After watching the person in his arms fall asleep, Qi Chensheng stayed with him for a while longer, and then gently put Wang Luan back on the mattress, recruited Feng Shan to guard him outside, turned around and left with the yellow talisman.

There is only a wall separating it, but unlike the willow green pool there, Qi Mojun's courtyard is obviously exquisite and generous, but it seems to be suppressed by an indescribable atmosphere, lifeless.

Qi Chensheng frowned, and the slender gentleman's staff silently appeared in his hand, followed his footsteps and tapped on the ground, and did not stop until he passed through the courtyard in front of him and entered the small hall with half bamboo curtains.

"Brother, I'm here."

Qi Mojun was not surprised by Qi Chensheng's arrival, or he had been waiting for a long time. After hearing the movement, he just turned around in the wheelchair and pointed to the chair beside him: "Sit down, I have prepared some new tea for you, now It's getting colder too."

Qi Chensheng didn't care much about the tea, but he sat down on the chair as he said, and casually pressed the yellow talisman under the teacup.

"Where did this come from?" Qi Mojun seemed a little surprised, and then he heard Qi Chensheng say: "Where else could it come from, the old man has really brought everyone to the bed these few years, and the smog in his yard is nothing more than that. He actually reached out to me."

Qi Mojun seemed to have gotten used to this, he picked up the teacup, moistened his throat and said, "Yes, a few days ago I heard that there was another riot in the east courtyard, and it was said that an aunt and a girl bumped into each other."

"I don't want to get involved, and after all, it's a female relative's business, so I asked Ru Ling to take a look, and there was no news after that."

"Breaking ghosts?" A trace of disdain flashed across Qi Chensheng's gray broken eyes: "I think they have too many ghosts in their hearts, can't they hold it?"

Qi Mojun was not at all interested in the affairs of the East Courtyard at all, but seeing that the trouble had come to his younger brother, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed: "Since you have this talisman, there must be more in the East Courtyard. Just poke it out and let Qi Longxun have a headache."

It doesn't matter in the end, Qi Chensheng naturally has a lot of ideas, he can make a fuss as he pleases, the two brothers said a few more words, and then it passed.

"You didn't come here just for that, did you?" The water in the teacup became colder, Qi Mojun simply put it aside, and before Qi Chensheng could answer, he said again: "Looking at the way you look today, you are completely reconciled." ?”

Qi Chensheng was silent for a rare moment, then nodded and said: "Yes."

Qi Mojun was actually not surprised by this, he recalled five years ago, his younger brother was covered in blood, almost looking like he had returned home from a wasteland.

But at that time, he discovered that in Qi Chensheng's eyes, there was the pain of being betrayed, and the hatred that was hard to let go, but... there was still something hidden, which had not been erased.

So a few days ago, when he received a call from his younger brother, saying that the old man was going to bring someone back for his [-]th birthday, Qi Mojun didn't say anything.

"Now that you're reconciled, let's have a good time in the future."

Qi Chensheng nodded, raised his eyes to look in the direction of his courtyard through half of the bamboo curtain.He thought that Wang Luan should still be sleeping by the willow-shaded pool, and his heart became softer.

But he did not forget the business, the gentleman's stick in his hand hit the ground, and the sound of goshawks sounded in the empty room, but after the gust of wind, only the black cage with the canary locked fell into Qi Chensheng's hands.

"Brother, I'm here today, actually for this."

Qi Mojun's eyes changed slightly, and he took the black cage from Qi Chensheng's hand. The canary in the cage seemed to be frightened, and began to cry uncomfortably.

"Who did this?"

"Wang Mingsheng," Qi Chensheng frowned, and talked about Wang Luan's possession of the demon: "After this reunion, I asked Brother Nine... He didn't know what a demon was before."

"Back then, Wang Mingsheng single-handedly lured the holding demon to him, and not all of them, the remaining part was locked in this cage."

"According to what you mean," Qi Mojun heard Qi Chensheng talk about Wang Mingsheng five years ago, and he has always been a little puzzled about this person's purpose: "Is Wang Mingsheng deliberately creating dying people?"

"More than that," Qi Chensheng shook his head, and told about Su Xi's story, and speculated from this: "He used those dying people to support Su Xi for more than ten years... What he cares about is not the dying people, but Su Xi Rhino itself."

Qi Mojun's expression gradually became serious, he knew what this meant: "Wang Mingsheng is raising Zhiyao."

Qi Chensheng nodded, got up from the chair, and struck the ground with the gentleman's staff in his hand: "He should have more holding demons in his hand."

"Over the years, I have been unable to figure out why he sent Brother Nine to approach me... Now, I understand."

"What he wanted from me was never money—it was a way to withstand the parasitism of multiple demons."

The sound of the gentleman's stick suddenly stopped, Qi Chensheng turned around, looked at his brother from a distance, and then slowly expressed his conclusion: "It is very likely that he already knew about the Star Supervisor."

"Have you talked to Wang Luan about this?" Qi Mojun turned the wheelchair under him, unable to hear any emotion.

"No," Qi Chensheng denied it without hesitation, and then explained: "Five years ago, I only knew a little about the matter of the Star Supervisor. Now... I want to say it, but I haven't found the right time."

"Since this is the case, how did Wang Mingsheng know about the Star Supervisor?" Qi Mojun said slowly, but his words were serious: "Let's take a few steps back, even if he can find out about the Star Supervisor from other places, he is just like you. As I said, five years ago, you yourself only knew a little about the star supervisor, how did he follow you?"

"Brother means..." Qi Chensheng's remnant eyes narrowed slightly, gathering an unresolved darkness: "The Qi family has an inner ghost."

Even though it was a summer day, there was a burst of shade for no reason, and the sound of cicadas and insects could still be heard outside the window. After a long time, Qi Mojun said, "Of course, this is just your and my speculation."

"What exactly is going on, I will secretly send someone to investigate, but... just don't take it lightly."

Qi Chensheng nodded, stroking the gentleman's stick in his hand, for him, what happened five years ago was enough to leave a lesson that he would never forget in his life.

So now, he is not afraid of Wang Mingsheng, but he has never despised him.

"Speaking of... I still have something to ask my brother." Qi Chensheng thought of Wang Luan again from Wang Mingsheng, and turned to Qi Mojun and said: "I'm always worried that if something happens, the canary will be there. Ninth Brother's body can still protect him a little bit, so these days...he didn't let him waste it."

Qi Mojun nodded, motioning for him to continue talking.

"But Ninth Brother's body was really sick, so I used the ring stone to lock up the blood, so that the canary would not draw his life for a while, but only from my blood—"

"Are you still using your own blood?" Qi Mojun suddenly interrupted Qi Chensheng's words, with a little surprise in his words.

"Yes, but I found that brother Jiu's health still hasn't improved, but what's wrong?" Qi Chensheng only thought that his brother was blaming him for using such a method, but he still admitted it for the sake of Wang Luan.

He didn't want to raise his eyes, but he found that Qi Mojun was hesitating to speak, and his eyes were very subtle.

"You..." Qi Mojun really didn't know how to speak, and after thinking about it, he asked: "During these days, you and him... haven't done that kind of thing?"

Qi Chensheng was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect that his elder brother would tell him this, and there was a bit of embarrassment in his gray eyes.

"The doctor said that brother Jiu's body can't take it now—"

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Qi Mojun's eyes became more subtle. He pressed his hand on his forehead, and when he spoke again, he said as if he hated iron for being weak: "A few years ago at home, my uncle and I asked you to read more When you read these books, you never take them to heart."

"That's right, you can say that you don't know anything about the Star Supervisor, how can you expect you to know something else."

After all, Qi Chensheng is a powerful figure outside, so suddenly he listened to his brother's lesson, he was really confused, but he still held his confidence: "Brother, who are you?"

Qi Mojun didn't want to talk to him about this matter any more, so he steered the wheelchair to the side bookcase, and searched it dully.

Qi Chensheng originally thought that he would find some secret secretary from the Qi family, but when he got it, he was surprised, ""On the Origins and Symptoms of Various Diseases"?"

"Brother Jiu's illness, is there a cure for it?"

Qi Mojun shook his head, didn't even say a word, just flipped the pages of the book a few times, and then threw it into Qi Chensheng's hands: "Go back and think about it yourself, don't come to make trouble for me again."

After speaking, he slid the wheelchair and went to the inner room.

Qi Chensheng felt even weirder now, but he still followed the words and looked down, only to see that there were indeed lines on the page, which were particularly eye-catching: "Kidneys store essence, and essence is formed by blood."[1]
