Qining heard the girl say with a trembling voice outside: "I... I know he will definitely look for me, I... I have always wanted to see him, but...!" The voice outside suddenly stopped, and then Qining actually heard There was a faint sound of sobbing.
Qi Ning was excited, but he knew that Xiaodie couldn't stay here for too long. Since he was sure that the other party was Xiaodie, he felt completely relieved and said: "Xiaodie, please leave quickly, you have been here for too long. , don’t make them suspicious.”
Xiaodie did have a lot of things she wanted to ask Qining, but when Qining reminded her, she immediately woke up and said hurriedly: "Then I'll leave first, you... you wait until I come over next time."
Qining was filled with joy and agreed, and Xiaodie hurried away.
The waiting this time was much more urgent than before. He had never seemed so happy since he came to this world. He couldn't sleep, looking forward to Xiaodie coming again.
When the food was brought in through the hole, Qining hurriedly approached it and was about to speak when he heard the footsteps of the man leaving. Qining felt strange in his heart and wondered why Xiaodie left without saying a word. He was about to shout. , as soon as the word "Xiaodie" came to my lips, my heart skipped a beat, but I couldn't hold it back.
He thought that Xiaodie was extremely concerned about Xiao Diao'er's affairs and had finally waited until the time came. He would never leave without saying a word. Today was very abnormal and very strange.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that since he was imprisoned, he had only spoken to Xiaodie a few times, and the other party had not said a word for more than a month. He had always subconsciously thought that Xiaodie was the one who fixed it for him. Delivering meals, but I am really not sure whether it has been Xiaodie for more than a month. If someone else is delivering meals outside at this moment, calling out the name "Xiaodie" does not mean admitting to the other person. Have you ever communicated with Xiaodie? He knew that Ji Zang's group must have strictly prohibited the food delivery people from talking to him. If Xiaodie had communicated with him and was reported, it would have harmed Xiaodie.
The man left and Qining stopped calling him.
For the next three consecutive days, the person who delivered the meal remained silent. Qi Ning tentatively said a few words, but the person ignored him. Qi Ning's heart suddenly sank, secretly wondering if it was possible that Xiaodie and Xiao Die were together. The thing he came into contact with has been known to others, so the person who delivers the food has been changed
If so, will Fluttershy be punished
He was extremely worried. When the meal was delivered on the fourth day, he heard Xiaodie's voice saying: "It's me, I... I'm Xiaodie!"
Qi Ning let out a long breath, leaned over and said, "Xiaodie, you're finally here. Didn't you deliver the food these days? I'm worried to death, for fear that something might happen to you."
Xiaodie explained: "Tongzi suddenly summoned a group of people for training, and I was among them. Things happened in a hurry, and I didn't have time to tell you. The person who delivered the food was someone else. I... I've been worried that you let the news slip."
Qi Ning smiled and said: "I almost let it slip, but luckily I had a foresight. By the way, the boy called you for training. What training? Which boy are you talking about?" I wondered if it was possible that he was holding a treasure. Boy
Xiaodie didn't explain much, but said: "Last time you said that Little Diao'er was still alive and well, then... then do you know where he is now? Is he still in Huize City?"
Qi Ning thought that he was trapped in this impregnable prison. In his current situation, even with Xiaodie's help, he might not be able to escape. But without Xiaodie's help, it would be impossible to escape. Knowing this There was no need to hide it anymore, and he said softly: "I know where he is."
"Ah?" Xiaodie said in surprise: "Where is he?"
"Far away in the horizon, close in front of you." Qining sighed: "Xiaodie, I am Xiao Diao'er."
There was silence for a while outside, and after a moment, Xiaodie said: "You... why are you teasing me?"
"I didn't lie to you." Qining said: "Do you still remember Old Bark? The last time we met, I was still ill and dying. It was you who became my jade pendant and handed the money to Old Bark. I bought medicine from the bark of the tree, which allowed me to wander around the gate of hell and come back." Before Xiaodie could speak, he continued: "You were deceived by Mrs. Hua into becoming a maid, but Mrs. Hua colluded with Xiao Yishui, the head catcher in Huize County. , trapped you in the yard, and then used the escort team to transport you to the capital for sale, am I right?"
"You... how do you know this?" Xiao Die's voice was full of shock: "It was all... Xiao Diao'er told you?"
Qi Ning said: "I am Xiao Diao'er, so I naturally know all this."
"Old bark... Jade pendant, you... are you really... Xiao Diao'er?" Xiaodie's voice choked with sobs: "This... how is this possible? You... aren't you a senior official of the imperial court?"
"I know all this is unbelievable, and I will explain it to you slowly." Qining said: "Xiaodie, after they took you away from Huize City, I killed Xiao Yishui and chased the escort team, but the escort team The team was intercepted halfway, so there was no clue about you, and then...!" He knew that Xiaodie's time was precious, so he told Xiaodie how he became the Jin Yihou in the simplest words. This was his biggest secret. Except for Longtai and the old lady of the Qi family who had become a living dead, no one in the world knew that this Jin Yihou was pretending to be a real person.
If there is only one person in the world that he can trust, it is Xiaodie.
He had never told anyone this huge secret, but today he told Xiaodie about it.
When Xiaodie heard this unbelievable thing, she just found it hard to believe it. However, the more bizarre the thing was, the more likely it was to be true. Moreover, although Qi Ning made it clear that he was mistaken for Jin Yihou after leaving Huize City. The details that the prince brought back to the capital were very clear and without any loopholes. Although Xiaodie found this unbelievable, she still believed it and asked: "You mean, you... you were raped by the Jinyi Hou Mansion?" He is regarded as the real prince, so...?"
"I was thinking that Jin Yihou is a noble of Chu State and has great strength. If I use the strength of Jin Yihou Mansion to find you, it will be twice the result with half the effort." Qining sighed: "Who knew that once I entered the Hou family, it was as deep as the sea. I wanted to escape. It’s already very difficult, and there’s really no other way, so I just hang around like this.”
Xiaodie pondered for a moment and then said: "But... But the boy said that you are a very evil traitor who has harmed many people. He also said... He also said that you are the backer behind the evil people in Huize City."
Qining frowned and said: "He is confusing right and wrong, Xiaodie, why are you with this group of people? Do you know Ksitigarbha?"
"I know Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva came to the world to punish those evil people and ghosts." Xiaodie said, "But I have never seen him. You... you also know Ksitigarbha?"
"The things in between are very complicated." Qining said: "I will explain it to you slowly later. Xiaodie, where am I now? Is this... Chaowu Ridge?"
Xiaodie said: "This is Wild Ghost Ridge. Actually... I only know the name of this place. I don't know where it is. I have been on the mountain for more than a year and have never gone down."
Qi Ning asked: "Could it be that... the people who robbed and killed the escort agency were sent by Ksitigarbha?" He was confused, thinking that Ksitigarbha had been operating in Xichuan, but the escort team was robbed in the Huaihe area, and the two places were far apart. , how could Ksitigarbha send people to go so far away to rob people? The name of this wild ghost ridge makes people panic as soon as they hear it, as if the mountain ridge is a group of lonely ghosts, but they don't know where it is.
Xiaodie said: "I'll talk to you later." After a pause, she said: "Little Diao'er, I... I thought I would never see you again." But her voice was choked again, for fear of being suspected, and she was in a hurry Leave.
Qi Ning was finally sure at this time that the escort team from the Rising Sun Escort Bureau must have been intercepted and killed by Ji Zang's people, while Xiaodie and others were transferred to the Wild Ghost Ridge. Ji Zang spent all his efforts to do this, Of course, they don't have any good intentions to help people in distress. They just want to take advantage of these little girls who don't know anything about the world. They slander Qining as a traitor, so they naturally deceive people like Xiaodie.
He had many questions in his mind. When Xiaodie came over again, he immediately asked: "Xiaodie, am I the only one imprisoned here? Are there anyone else imprisoned here?"
Xiaodie was silent for a moment, then said: "There are still a few people, but they are imprisoned in several places. I am responsible for delivering meals to you and another person every day. That person... That person was seriously injured and can't move now. It seems... I can only crawl on the ground."
Qi Ning's heart trembled and he quickly asked: "Do you know who he is?"
"I can't talk to you. If I'm discovered...!" Xiaodie paused and lowered her voice: "The man also asked me where he was, and asked... and asked if there were other people being imprisoned here. I haven’t spoken to him, but his voice is old, so he must be an old man.”
"Old man?" Qining immediately thought of Li Xigong.
Li Xigong is old and his voice is old. More importantly, Qining remembers clearly that in order to resist the leader, Li Xigong inserted silver needles into his knees and took medicine, so that he could survive serious injuries. He quickly regained his strength, but precisely because of this, once twelve hours passed, Li Xigong's limbs would be disabled.
Xiaodie said that the old man was seriously injured and could only crawl on the ground. This was probably because Li Xigong's limbs were disabled. When moving, he could only crawl on the ground with his body. Thinking of Li Xigong's current situation, Qi Ning felt sour in his heart and said with a bitter smile: "He is a good friend of mine who helps the world and saves people. He has saved countless lives in this generation. If there is a truly good person in this world, he is a good person."
