Why do you want me to be the sect leader?

Although Huo Jiulin was shocked, he didn't cooperate in any way. Shen Yiqing was not an active person, and now he finally persuaded himself to risk his face and kiss him, but he turned indifferent and felt aggrieved.

He backed away a little, put away his emotions, and returned to his usual indifference, "Huo Jiulin, what exactly do you want?"

"I just want a definite answer."

Only in that way can he know whether he should continue or not. If his answer is no, then why bother to add trouble to him, it is better to just let go, his own pain is better than his pain.

"what is the answer?"

"do you love me?"

Shen Yiqing thought about it carefully, after getting along during this time, everything went with the flow, so he never considered this issue, but thought that according to what Huo Jiulin said, it would be good for two people to travel around the world together.

But whether this is love, he still hasn't figured it out.

"I really don't know. In fact, I don't understand why you have to define your relationship as love or not. In my opinion, as friends, we can travel together."

Huo Jiulin finally felt that the wound on his left shoulder hurt badly. If it wasn't for the pain in his left shoulder, how could his heart be in such pain?

There is really no reason to talk about the relationship. He likes Shen Yiqing so much, even if he is rejected, he still feels lucky because he is talking about friends and not strangers.

"Okay, let's be friends then."

Shen Yiqing felt relieved when she heard the words, but also felt that she was not as happy as she imagined.

"I have never had a chance to ask you, were you injured during the actions against the enemy in Min Chong City?"

"It's just a skin injury, and it's all right now. I heard from Lu Bai that your left shoulder was pierced. Besides your left shoulder, are there any other injuries? I saw you also received a whip on your back that day."

"It looks scary, but it doesn't hurt at all. Little Egret is exaggerating."

"I brought the medicine for golden sores, which was handed down from our Shen family's castle. It is very helpful for treating trauma, how about..."

"The doctor also prescribed medicine."

"Then this..."

Shen Yiqing took out a small medicine bottle from her bosom, Huo Jiulin took it after hesitation, and said with a smile, "Thank you..."

thank youShen Yiqing felt that there was still something wrong with Huo Jiulin. The way he wanted to get along was not like this. He thought that after clarifying it, he would be able to return to the way it was before, and then he could avoid things like getting married.

"Why don't I give you medicine?"

"I've already taken the medicine, Ah Qing, you haven't had a good rest recently, you'd better go back early, I will visit Wuye tomorrow."

"I, I'm actually not tired."

"I'm tired and want to rest."

"Then I'm here..."

"No..."

After Huo Jiulin finished speaking, he lay down, pulled up the quilt, closed his eyes and rested, while Shen Yiqing sat by the bed in a daze, feeling a mess in his heart.

After waiting for a while, he heard footsteps in the corridor, so he had no choice but to get up, go back to the window and turn over. After the room became quiet, Huo Jiulin opened his eyes again.

Friends... have been so close before, can you return to the position of friends?Alas, let's go to the end of the world, I can't see it, maybe after a long time, the miss will fade away.

It's just that he can't leave Lanrong City yet, because there is still one thing he hasn't done, but with his current state, he doesn't know if he can do it.

In the early morning of the next day, Huo Jiulin got up and made the bed, and just opened the door when he met Lou Yuzhi who came over, his expression seemed a little surprised.

"How did you get up? Your body is still very weak."

"It's a poor life, so the recovery is naturally faster than ordinary people."

"I don't agree with this point of view, Doctor Liu, please give him another diagnosis and treatment."

It was only then that Huo Jiulin realized that there was a doctor behind Lou Yu, who looked quite old. The doctor took out the tools from the medicine box, and then sat at the table and looked at Huo Jiulin.

Huo Jiulin walked over to sit down helplessly, stretched out his hand to feel his pulse, and then Dr. Liu asked him to take off his shirt, checked the wound for him, changed the medicine and bandaged it up again.

"The injury was too serious, and it took too long. Although I can recover slowly if I rest well, I don't know if it will affect my left hand in the future."

"Affecting the left hand? You mean, my left hand may be useless?"

"It's possible, but I'm not sure. Don't lift heavy objects for at least a year. Let's see how you recover when the time comes. The old man sees that your pierced wound was at least six or seven days ago. Why didn't you treat it well then? Otherwise, it wouldn’t be like this.”

Huo Jiulin smiled relaxedly: "Poor, if it weren't for luck to be rescued by Master Lou, the wound would have dragged on for a longer time."

"Young Master Lou has a kind heart. Everyone in Lanrong City knows this. The old man sits in the Lou's Medical Center run by Young Master Lou. If you feel unhappy in the future, you can go there. You will not be charged for medical treatment and medicine."

"Thanks in advance."

"Don't thank me, if you want to thank, thank Master Lou."

"I'm just doing what I can, it's nothing."

Doctor Liu explained a few words and left. Lou Yuzhi looked at Huo Jiulin and asked, "I see that you are dressed like a poor man."

"Why not poor, I have been a beggar for several years."

"Don't worry, your hands will be fine. My father has collected a lot of precious medicinal materials. When the time comes, I'll show Dr. Liu some to see if it can help you."

"How embarrassing that is."

"I think if you don't dislike it, we can be friends."

"It's Huo's honor to have a friend like Master Lou."

"Since we are friends, don't call me Young Master Lou. My name is Lou Yuzhi. I still don't know your name?"

"Huo Jiulin."

A Xu on the side looked at the two of them strangely, and he always felt that his young master seemed a little weird.

Although the young master looks gentle, he actually doesn't like making friends very much, so he always walks alone.

"In your current state, it is actually better to lie on the bed and rest."

"Always bored in the room is also a bit stuffy, so I thought of going to the door to take a breath."

"The weather is really good today, why don't I accompany you to the yard?"

"I can't ask for it."

Huo Jiulin stood up, and the two of them left the room together. Lou Yuzhi saw that his complexion was not bad, so he took him for a stroll around the Lou Mansion.

"The Lou family is worthy of being the richest man's family. I'm afraid I can't even afford a single stone here."

"Tch, of course you can't afford these stones. These are all viewing stones that my master spent thousands of dollars to buy."

Ah Xu looked at Huo Jiulin with some contempt, and Huo Jiulin nodded as if suddenly realized, "The Lou family is really rich."

"Don't listen to Ah Xu's nonsense, it's just that my father runs a lot of businesses, so he made some money, but he still dare not be so rich."

"I heard that the Lou family also has a treasure building, so isn't that the whole building is full of treasures?"

Lou Yuzhi glanced at Huo Jiulin meaningfully, then nodded and said: "There is indeed one, you can see it by going around the corridor in front, but it's not as exaggerated as the rumors, it's just that my father likes to collect some rare items , and then I was afraid that I would not be able to find them if I put them in disorder, so I put them together for easy management.”

As he spoke, he led Huo Jiulin to the Treasure Building. Huo Jiulin was a little surprised. Most people would be wary when asked about these things. Why did he take him to visit instead?

After walking for a while, there was an extra building in front of me. In fact, it was a building, which looked more like a tower. It had about seven or eight floors.

"Why don't you even have a guard? Are you not afraid of being stolen?"

"Those stones are regular. If you step on a wrong step, you will be doomed. Moreover, every floor in the building has a lot of traps, so there is no need for guards."

"So that's it, Huo is really an eye-opener."

"Follow my footsteps carefully, and don't step on the wrong foot."

"You want to take me there? Is it not good for me to be an outsider?"

"You can't enter the building. I just want to take you on the gravel road. These are designed by me."

"I didn't expect you to study these."

"Idle and boring, nothing more than interest."

After Lou Yuzhi finished speaking, he told A Xu not to follow, and then led Huo Jiulin to walk slowly on the gravel road. Huo Jiulin memorized every step carefully, and the two of them arrived at the gate of Zangbao Building after a short while. The door is open.

"The distance here is actually not far away. If you are good at lightness kung fu, you might be able to fly here directly. Wouldn't your mechanism be in vain?"

"No, because those few steps must be stepped on, otherwise the mechanism will be triggered. Hundreds of poisonous arrows will be fired at once, and it will be difficult to fly even with wings."

Huo Jiulin was a little lucky that he didn't come here directly last night, otherwise he might have gone to reincarnate by now.

"No wonder you don't even have to close the door."

"Even if the average person escapes the first level, they will feel cheated when they see the door open, so they will choose to enter through the window."

"Then you set up traps over the windows?"

"That's right, it's better to be false than real."

"I admire it. I think this building is seven or eight stories high. Could it be that it's all piled up?"

"How can it be so exaggerated? There are seven floors in total. The reason why it is built so high is because we want to collect items by category. For example, the second floor is for antiques, the third floor is for calligraphy and painting, the fourth floor is for jewelry, and the fifth floor is for other collections. The seventh floor is empty."

"What about the sixth floor?"

"The sixth floor is medicinal materials."

Huo Jiulin couldn't help looking at Lou Yuzhi, Lou Yuzhi looked natural, as if he was simply giving an introduction.

But he always felt a little strange. Telling the distribution of the treasure building to a person who has known him for a day like this is because he is too confident in the agency, or is it something else?

In particular, he deliberately took out the first floor of the medicinal materials and said, why does he always have the feeling that he is helping himself on purpose?But how did he know that he was going to steal the butterfly water chestnut?

"Okay, I can only show you around here. Not all the organs inside are designed by me, so I don't know many, and the key is not with me."

"I didn't dare to go in and visit. I was afraid that I would feel unbalanced after seeing too many treasures. I felt that the past so many years was too sad, and I would not live if I couldn't think about it."

Lou Yuzhi was laughed at by Huo Jiulin's words. Huo Jiulin looked up at the Zangbao Building, the sixth floor, wondering if he could go up directly from the outside...
