Beauty is like jade, delicate and dripping. Qining knows that if he is indifferent at this time, others will look down on him, even himself.
He suddenly stood up and hugged Xian'er. Xian'er let out a soft cry. Qining lowered his head and looked at Xian'er's cheeks in his arms, which were already red, and said softly: "Have you thought about it?"
Xian'er's watery eyes looked at Qi Ning timidly, biting her red lips, and then she softly said "hmm" and put her cheek against Qi Ning's chest, as if she didn't dare to look into Qi Ning's eyes again.
Xian'er's delicate body was exquisite and convex. Qin Ning held it in his hands, but it was as light as a cloud, and the soft jade was warm and fragrant. He felt that Xian'er's delicate body was already a little hot, and was even trembling slightly. He took a deep breath and hugged her. He led Xian'er to the back of the screen, where there was a fragrant soft couch. When he walked to the edge of the bed, Qining gently put Xian'er down.
Xian'er held her hands together and placed them on her chest, still looking at Qining timidly.
"Here...will anyone come in?" Qining leaned close to Xian'er's ear and asked softly.
Xian'er said softly: "No... no, Xian'er has already told me that no one... no one dares to come in." Her face was red, fresh and pleasant.
Qi Ning gently stroked Xian'er's smooth and tender cheek and asked softly: "Are you scared?"
"No...!" Xian'er's eyelashes flashed, "Master Hou, later... you will have some mercy later, Xian'er... Xian'er has never experienced...!" Thinking of something, he hurriedly said: "Xian'er will take off your clothes for you. ...!" He twisted around and was already kneeling on the bed, with his head lowered, not daring to look directly into Qining's eyes. He just stretched out his hand to help Qining take off his clothes.
At this moment, a shrill howl was heard outside.
This howl came so suddenly that Qi Ning, who was still immersed in the warm fragrance of nephrite, was startled. Xian'er, who was extremely shy, also raised his head and frowned.
Then he heard a commotion on the deck. Qining frowned and asked, "What happened?" But he was very unhappy. Last time, Chi Danmei disrupted the situation. Today, he couldn't be spoiled by another inexplicable scream. A good thing.
But the screams kept ringing in my ears, just like the desperate roar of wild animals. Suddenly I heard Duan Canghai's voice coming from outside: "Master Hou, are you in there?"
Although Qi Ning was a little angry, he could only walk over and ask, "What happened?"
"Someone is crazy." Duan Canghai's voice was low, "Is the Marquis okay?"
The noise on the deck became louder and louder, and a woman's exclamation was heard again, and someone even shouted: "Don't get close to him, stabilize him first."
Xian'er had quickly put on a white cloak and wrapped it around her exquisite body. She came closer and asked, "Master Marquis, has something happened?"
"Xian'er, don't worry." Seeing that Xian'er was a little scared, Qining said softly: "It's cold outside, don't go out, I'll go out and see what's going on."
"Master Hou, Xian'er... Xian'er is waiting for you to come back." Xian'er reached out and grabbed Qining's arm, as if she was worried that Qining would never return. Qi Ning patted her hand, smiled softly, and then walked out of the cabin. When he saw Duan Canghai already guarding outside the cabin, he asked, "Is someone crazy? Why are they crazy?"
Duan Canghai led Qi Ning to the side of the boat. The boat had two floors. Zhuo Xianer was on the upper floor. Usually only the maids were on this floor. The boatman and bodyguards on the boat were on the bottom floor.
For the girls on the Qinhuai River, when they are in high demand, there are at least a dozen people on the boat including the maids, boatmen and bodyguards, and these people all point to the girls to eat.
It is not difficult for a popular girl like Zhuo Xianer to support more than a dozen people, so the girl on the Qinhuai River is the most popular, which can be seen from the size of the people on her boat.
When the momentum is over, the number of customers and income will decrease, and the burden will become heavier and heavier. In the end, there will be fewer and fewer people under the command, and it will be difficult to support it. Even the boat will be deprived of it. Under normal circumstances, one person A popular girl can survive on the Qinhuai River for three years, which is considered the limit.
Qining walked to the side of the ship and looked down, only to see six or seven figures swaying on the bow deck. One of them looked like a madman, running around on the bow deck, wailing like a beast in his throat, while the others Some people were holding sticks and surrounding them, but they did not dare to go forward.
"You suddenly went crazy." Duan Canghai frowned and said, "I don't know why?"
Qining's expression became solemn, and he suddenly asked: "This scene seems familiar. Did you think of anything?"
Duan Canghai was startled, his brows tightened, something suddenly occurred to him, and he lost his voice: "Master Hou is talking about... the Beggar Clan?"
Qi Ning nodded slightly: "Last night, when we came back from the palace, wasn't the situation we saw similar to now?"
"That's right." Duan Canghai's expression became more solemn, staring at the crazy man, "Master Marquis, could it be... Could it be that the Beggar Clan disciple he saw last night has the same disease as this person?"
"I don't know if it's the same reason." Qining shook his head: "But the scene I see now is no different from last night."
Suddenly, he saw a man leaping at him from behind, shouting: "I'll catch him...!" Before he could finish his words, the madman suddenly turned around and threw the man away, " With a "dong" sound, it hit the side of the ship.
Duan Canghai looked surprised.
The madman's figure was not very strong, and even a little thin, but the man who attacked from behind was very powerful. It was thought that the powerful man was bound to succeed, but who knew that he was just thrown away by the madman? Duan Canghai Quite surprised.
"Duan Canghai!" Qi Ning said fiercely: "Go over and restrain that man!"
He naturally knew that with Duan Canghai's skills, it would not be difficult to control that man.
Duan Canghai agreed and jumped directly from the side of the ship to the deck below without taking any detours. Everyone was surprised when they saw someone falling from the sky.
Duan Canghai said in a deep voice: "Everyone spread out!"
He was born in the military, and once he made a move, he had a certain power. When everyone saw Duan Canghai's appearance, they didn't dare to disobey him, and they all ran behind Duan Canghai.
Duan Canghai carried a sword at his waist, but did not draw it. He snatched the wooden stick from the hand of the person on the side. Before the person could react, Duan Canghai already held the wooden stick in his hand and stepped forward.
The lunatic yelled, and when he saw Duan Canghai rushing towards him, he did not dodge, but rushed towards Duan Canghai.
Duan Canghai sneered, stretched out his ape arm, and pointed the long stick in his hand at the man's knee. Although the man looked fierce, he didn't know how to dodge. Duan Canghai pointed the end of the stick at his knee, and mixed garlic at his feet. He was the first to kneel down on one knee. When Duan Canghai stretched out his stick, the person had already come over to him. When the man knelt down on one knee, a hand reached out and grabbed one of the man's arms. He had already reached around Behind the man, he twisted the man's arm.
Qi Ning saw it and thought that although Duan Canghai's martial arts was not superb, it was simple and effective and extremely useful in actual combat. It was no wonder that Duan Canghai would always serve in Jinyihou Mansion.
When everyone saw Duan Canghai restraining the madman with three moves and two moves, they were all filled with admiration. When they saw Duan Canghai had clasped the man's arm behind his back, they thought he was fine. They just breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the madman twist. He didn't even care about his arm being buckled behind his back, and raised his fist with the other hand to hit Duan Canghai.
Duan Canghai obviously didn't expect the madman to be so brave. He only heard a "click" and the madman's strength had been broken.
Qi Ning saw this and was horrified in his heart.
The lunatic was as tall as a child in front of Duan Canghai, and on such a boat, the lunatic's martial arts could not be higher than the battle-hardened Duan Canghai, but the lunatic seemed unaware of the difference between the two. Despite the huge gap between them, he even punched Duan Canghai despite his broken arm. Qining immediately felt that this person was probably unconscious.
Duan Canghai obviously realized that this lunatic should not be treated like an ordinary person. He gave a low shout and kicked the man in the crook of his knees. The man immediately knelt down on both legs. Duan Canghai kept raising his hand before the man could make another move. The knife-like shape had cut into the back of the man's head. The man's body swayed and finally fell to the deck.
Seeing that the madman was motionless, everyone looked at each other in shock. Some even thought that Duan Canghai had killed the madman.
Wang Xiang, who went to invite Qining over, was among the crowd and was the first to approach cautiously. He knew that Duan Canghai was the personal guard of Marquis Jinyi and also knew Duan Canghai's name. He did not dare to neglect and asked: "Master Duan, he …?"
"Don't worry, he's not dead, he was just knocked unconscious." Duan Canghai said in a deep voice, raised his head and said, "Master Hou, this person is really crazy."
When Wang Xiang saw Duan Canghai looking behind him, he hurriedly turned around, only to find that Qi Ning had appeared behind him without knowing when, and he hurriedly raised his hands.
Qi Ning ordered: "Tie him up first, I'm afraid he will cause trouble when he wakes up later."
Wang Xiang immediately shouted: "Come quickly, tie him up first."
Everyone brought ropes and tied up the man with all their hands and feet. Just as he was about to lift him down, Qining shook his head and said, "Wait a minute." He walked to the edge and squatted down. He saw that the man's teeth were clenched and his eyes were tight. He closed his eyes. Under the coma, his breathing was still a little rapid. He couldn't help but frown, and asked someone to get closer with a lantern. They saw that this man's face was pale, but there were four or five red spots the size of fingernails on his face. The color is not very strong, but under the light, it is extremely conspicuous.
"Is this what he originally had on his face?" Qining asked, pointing to the red spots on the man's face.
Wang Xiang hurriedly said: "Returning to Mr. Hou, the red spots on his face only started to appear in the past few days. Yes, very small spots began to appear the day before yesterday, but he didn't pay attention to them. The night before yesterday, the spots became more and more serious. It has grown bigger and bigger, and by last night, it had become like this, but the color was still lighter at that time, not as red as it is now."
Qining suddenly raised his head and asked: "You mean, this was sent out two or three days ago?"
"Yes, yes!" Wang Xiang saw Qin Ning's stern expression and did not dare to ignore him. He carefully replied: "He has been in a daze since yesterday morning and couldn't get up when it was time to get up. I thought he was too tired. He was allowed to sleep a little longer, but he couldn't get up until noon yesterday."
Qi Ning was thoughtful and nodded slightly.
Wang Xiang continued: "I touched his head and it was very hot, so I asked someone to boil some medicine for him. After he took the medicine, he didn't get better until last night, but the spots on his face were getting bigger and bigger, and they kept getting bigger. I was in a daze, half awake but not awake. Today I went to invite Mr. Hou, so I didn’t pay attention to him. I heard that he slept all day again today and didn’t eat anything, not even a sip of water. I felt Something was wrong, and I was going to send him to see a doctor, but... But as soon as I got close to him, he suddenly jumped up from his vagina, and then... and then he went crazy!"
Qi Ning didn't say much. He turned the man around and opened his sleeves. Under the light, he saw red spots on his arms. They were as big as copper coins and darker than his face. It was shocking. .
