The second senior brother is back [Rebirth]

Chapter 21 Yangzhou Volume 9

I don't know which bottle of medicine took effect. Shen Congyue's wound stopped bleeding and began to heal quickly. In the end, only a pale scar was left.

Only then did Rong Yan's tense body relax, and he fell to the ground, panting heavily.Only then did he feel the pain in the wound, and he stretched out his hand to hold his shoulder to stop the blood flow.

Qu Jingxia was already furious, and carefully placed Shen Congyue on the ground, got up and pulled out the black gold iron fan nailed to Zhu Zhu, and slashed the throats of the two assassins with precision.

When his elder brother was injured, Shen Tianmian was already angry, but when he saw Rong Yan being assassinated, he went mad. The sword and sword were vicious, and Qu Jingxia joined forces with him to end the lives of these assassins with cruel killing methods.

Xu Qingyun hid in a corner early in the morning. Seeing Shen Tianmian and Qu Jingxia who were bathed in blood at this moment, he felt fear for no reason, and his body trembled unconsciously.

"Brother, are you okay?" Shen Tianmian helped Rong Yan up, and said anxiously, "Go back to Zhao's house first, and I'll help you treat the wound."

"No." Rong Yan stopped him, "I can't go back to Zhao's house, don't frighten their grandparents."

Rong Yan was injured, and the corner of Shen Tianmian's clothes was still stained with blood on his face. Going back like this might not scare Zhaozhou.

"Then follow me back to the inn." Qu Jingxia picked up Shen Congyue who was unconscious, and left with a cold face.

"Follow him." Seeing Shen Tianmian's hesitation, Rong Yan said, "Although Master Qu is a romantic person, he must be reliable if he can sit on the position of leader."

The four of them left Huan Zhu Lou one after the other. Xu Qingyun hesitated for a moment, knowing that he had nowhere to go, so he followed them to the inn.

"I'm sorry, Master Qu, Lord Shen's wrist was cut to protect me." Xu Qingyun stood on the bed, lowered his head and said guiltily.

"Is that all?" Qu Jingxia stared at him indifferently, with murderous intent in his eyes.

He has always shown people with a flirtatious face, with a smile on his face every day, but now he has a gloomy face, cold eyes, and evil spirits between his brows.

Xu Qingyun involuntarily took two steps back, lowered his head even lower, and said timidly, "I'm sorry..."

"Master Qu." Rong Yan half-naked his chest, allowing Shen Tianmian to help him deal with the wound, his lips were pale due to blood loss, and advised weakly, "Don't scare him."

Shen Zhoumian wiped the wound for him, and seeing that he was still busy caring about others, she couldn't help being even more annoyed, so she calmly put more effort into her hands.

At that time, this person only had to put down the medicine bottle, get up and back away, and he could perfectly dodge the sword, but he committed the crime, and he used his own flesh and blood to meet him directly. Such an attitude of belittling himself made him How could Shen Tianmian not be angry?How not to be annoyed?

"Hiss..." Rong Yan gasped, obviously feeling pain.

Shen Tianmian stopped his hands, and the overwhelming regret spread, he hurriedly applied medicine for Rong Yan, picked up gauze and wrapped it thickly.

"Master Shen is alright?" Rong Yan put on his clothes, walked to the bedside, and carefully inspected Shen Congyue's wrist, "I don't know which bottle of medicine has worked, but it has such a magical effect, such a deep wound. , in the blink of an eye."

No, it's not medicine.Qu Jingxia stared at the ignorant Rong Yan with a complicated expression.

He clearly saw that Rong Yan's blood dripped onto Shen Congyue's wound, which made the wound heal quickly.

This matter must be rotten in his heart, his complexion is really bad... Qu Jingxia thought to himself, calmed his complexion, and said, "He's fine, just make up later, but you, pay attention to rest."

Speaking of this, he put on a frivolous smile again, and said glibly, "Xizi is beautiful when holding a heart, but I still like to look healthy."

Shen Tianmian clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction, raised his hand and threw the blood-stained towel over, and slapped Qu Jingxia's face with his head, "Take care of them two, I'll go and buy some medicine to replenish qi and blood."

"Leave it to me, don't worry." Qu Jingxia was not angry when she was slapped with blood on her face, she shook off the towel and waved it like a brothel woman, signaling him to go quickly.

Xu Qingyun was still stuck in place, not daring to move.

"Xu Qingyun." Rong Yan pulled a chair and patted it, "Sit down. I have something to ask you."

Xu Qingyun sat down cautiously, "Envoy, please speak."

"Have you offended anyone recently? Or, do you have any enemies?"

"In Jianghu, no one has many enemies, but in the past, no one came to assassinate... After my hand was crippled, I stayed at home and never offended anyone..." Xu Qingyun frowned and thought hard, still said hesitantly.

There are four pharmacies in Yangzhou City, which are distributed in the four streets of East, West, North, South, and North. Shen Tianmian passed through the lively market on South Street, and went to Xuanhu Medical Center nearby.

The doctor in the Xuanhu Medical Center is very young, with warm eyebrows and eyes. Although his temperament is weak, he gives people a very reliable feeling. He heard Shen Tianmian said that it was a sword injury, so he deliberately added a herb to the blood-enriching medicinal materials to promote blood circulation. wound healing.

Shen Tianmian paid the money, took five packs of herbs, and walked around the market again.

People came and went in the market, and many children played around the candied haws vendor. Shen Tianmian knew that Rong Yan loved the candied haws from this shop, so he took out a few copper coins and prepared to buy a bunch of them, and took them back to comfort his childish senior brother.

"Ouch!"

While chasing and fighting, a boy accidentally bumped into Shen Tianmian's back and sat down on the ground.

This boy was born with red lips and white teeth, frightened and cute, wearing a black and gold embroidered thin shirt, a gold and jade ring on his waist, and a red gold plate and glass necklace around his neck. He was obviously born into a wealthy family, how could he appear in the market?Shen Tianmian frowned, doubts arose in his heart.

The boy was stunned for a moment, and then burst into tears, "Woo... Dad! Sister! It hurts! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

Shen Tianmian didn't care about doubts anymore, and impatiently stuffed the candied haws in his hand into his mouth.

The child who ate the candied haws was stunned for a moment, sobbing and touching his tears, the scar was healed and he forgot the pain, patted his buttocks and ran away again.

Shen Tianmian bought another bunch of candied haws before returning to the inn.

Rong Yan tried his best to talk, but he couldn't get anything out of Xu Qingyun's mouth. He was also tired now, drinking tea, sitting on a chair and confronting Xu Qingyun silently.

Seeing Shen Tianmian coming in with candied haws, her eyes lit up, and she was about to reach out to pick it up, but her face suddenly changed.He leaned close to Shen Tianmian, raised his nose and sniffed, and then asked, "Where did you go after you left the pharmacy? How did you smell the lotus scent all over your body?"

"Lotus fragrance?" Shen Tianmian put down the candied haws and asked in confusion, "Where is it?"

"On you." Qu Jingxia folded her arms and leaned against the bed rail, "I smelled it as soon as I came in."

He has been in brothels all year round and is very sensitive to various fragrances.

Rong Yan circled around Shen Tianmian, reached out and touched Shen Tianmian's waistband, and took out a letter from it.

Rong Yan unceremoniously tore open the envelope with a faint lotus fragrance, and pulled out the letter paper inside.

There are only a few crooked characters on the yellowish letter paper: Rong Yan, I'm here to find you.

Shen Tianmian's complexion was cloudy and uncertain.His martial arts were no worse than Shen Qu's, yet someone would silently stuff the letter paper, which made him startled and angry.

"It's Zhu Jianqing." Rong Yan threw the letter paper on the table, "As for his dog crawling characters, I can recognize them even when they are burnt to ashes."

"Zhu Jianqing came to Yangzhou?" Qu Jingxia picked up the letter and shook it, "So, he was responsible for these two assassinations?"

"I lived in the Zhao Mansion, and the Zhao family was assassinated. I came to see Xu Qingyun, and Xu Qingyun was also assassinated..." Rong Yan said in relief, "In this way, it seems likely that Zhu Jianqing did it."

Qu Jingxia squeezed the letter paper slightly with her fingers, crushing it into powder.

Shen Tianmian entrusted the cook to bring the medicine boiled up quickly. Qu Jingxia stopped Shen Tianmian, opened the door and took two bowls of medicine. When passing by Xu Qingyun, he accidentally tripped over the leg of the chair, and the boiling hot medicine It poured out instantly and splashed towards Xu Qingyun's face.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Qingyun subconsciously blocked it with his left hand.The hand that was originally white as jade turned red in an instant, and several blisters bulged.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, I just sat for too long and my legs are numb." Qu Jingxia said nonsense.

"It's not a problem." Xu Qingyun pursed his lips, sweating from the pain on his forehead.

Qu Jingxia turned a blind eye, walked to the bed and called softly, "Brother Shen? Brother Shen? Don't sleep, get up and drink the medicine."

Shen Congyue heard someone calling him in a daze, so he opened his eyes, straightened up with some effort, and reached out to take the medicine bowl from Qu Jingxia's hand.

"It's hot, let me do it." Qu Jingxia said, scooped up the soup with a spoon, blew it cool, and then brought it to Shen Congyue's mouth.

Shen Congyue felt that his good brother was a bit strange. Qu Jingxia was the leader of the evil way, when did he start serving others?

Shen Tianmian stood there with her arms folded. After a long time, she couldn't help kicking Qu Jingxia, and ran to the back kitchen to make medicine for Rong Yan.

The three of them were naturally suspicious of Xu Qingyun, and what Rong Yan said was just to lower his vigilance.

How could there be such a coincidence that the three of them left on the front foot, and the assassin arrived on the back foot?Why did Shen Congyue hurt the most important right wrist for a swordsman?But when Shen Tianmian went out to buy medicine, he happened to meet Zhu Jianqing?

Such a clumsy coincidence, only Shen Congyue, an upright and sincere idiot, would believe it.

Shen Tianmian kicked Qu Jingxia just because he was too stinky and shameless, and used Rong Yan's medicine to test Xu Qingyun.But Shen Congyue was his cousin, and there was no one left with a bowl of medicine, so he became even more angry.

The sweat on Xu Qingyun's forehead grew more and more. After Shen Congyue finished drinking the medicine, seeing his pale face, he couldn't help but asked with concern, "What's wrong with Brother Xu? Was he injured? Where does it hurt?"

"It's just a burn. Just wipe it off with cooling ointment, don't worry about it, and sleep for a while?" Qu Jingxia blocked Shen Congyue's sight and tucked the corner of his back for him.

"In this weather, do you want him to die of heat?" Rong Yan pulled Qu Jingxia by his hair and pulled him to him, stretched out his feet and said, "Go get medicine for Xu Qingyun, don't you know how to apologize for the burn?" ?!"
