Qi Rui looked at the man in black again, except for the dark night outfit, the face on the side could not be seen clearly, and the cold and cruel aura always threatened him. Just now, he didn't even feel his existence at all, he seemed to disappear when he closed it, and he was arrogant when he released it.

Shaking the still painful palm, Qi Rui walked towards Murong Shuqing and sighed, "Qing'er, brother, this is for your own good."

Murong Shuqing still looked at him without saying a word, and insisted on looking directly at Qi Rui with smiling eyes on weekdays, she did not accept such an explanation.

Murong Shuqing's intransigence made Qi Rui a little frustrated. If she didn't make it clear today, she would not give up. After thinking for a moment, Qi Rui said solemnly: "Okay, the person inside is very dangerous, and he may kill you at any time." Although Qing'er had martial arts masters by his side, he was moody and ruthless, and he was still worried about her.

"Who is he?" This is what Murong Shuqing wants to know most now.

"His name is Chu Yin, you may not know who he is, but—" Qi Rui only said a few words when he was interrupted by Murong Shuqing's exclamation.

"Evil doctor Chu Yin?" Murong Shuqing couldn't believe it. The person who had a drink with her, talked and wrote poetry just now was the evil doctor Chu Yin who made people in the arena both respect and fear. She knew that he was because of Shen Xiaoyun. According to him, the person who sent out to track down the evil doctor was either not found, or he had gone and never returned. It is rumored that this person has absolutely no benevolence as a doctor, saving lives depends on his preference, and human life is like a must for him. However, his medical skills are superb. According to rumors, there are no people who can't be saved by evil doctors, only those he doesn't want to save.

"Do you know him?" Qi Rui was surprised that her boudoir daughter knew such a wicked person in the world, but looking at the dark figure behind her, he completely believed that Shu Qing was no longer the Shu he knew. clear. But no matter what, she is still his most cherished sister, and he can't let her have any accidents. Qi Rui approached Murong Shuqing again, patted Murong Shuqing's shoulder lightly like he did when he was a child, and coaxed softly, "Since you know him, you should understand the intentions of eldest brother, anyone who breaks into Merlin will not be able to live yet. Come out. Although you can get out of your body today, but that person is so moody, he may not be so lucky next time, so don't enter Merlin again, you know? "

The tender caresses on his shoulders and all kinds of warnings reminded Murong Shuqing of his distant brothers. When they were young, they also told her to wait for them to pick her up after school, but now they can only miss her from afar. Covering her slightly wet eyes, Murong Shuqing closed her sad eyes and lowered her head to slowly fade away the longing in her heart.

Seeing that Murong Shuqing suddenly lowered his head, Qi Rui thought that he was being too strict, so he gently let Murong Shuqing lean on his shoulder, rubbing her silky long hair comfortingly. Murong Shuqing leaned against Qi Rui's broad and warm shoulders, and when his thoughts slowly calmed down, he straightened up and asked, "Is he here because of the clean water?" The person with the water birthmark should be Chu Yin.

"Yes, I spent three years looking for him, and two years begging him, but he still didn't agree to treat his face with clean water." Speaking of this, Qi Rui's face was full of haze. Since the day he learned that the evil doctor can cure pure water, he has not given up looking for him, but has exhausted all methods, but still found nothing. In the end, in the back mountain of his own courtyard, he met Chu Yin, an evil doctor who loves Mei and became crazy. He thought he could successfully ask him to help clean water to treat his face, but two years later, he still couldn't get in through the door. , why not teach people depression.

Through two years of observation, although Chu Yin is not as scary as rumored, he is definitely a dangerous person. Thinking of this, Qi Rui solemnly said to Murong Shuqing again: "Qing'er, promise eldest brother, don't go in again."

After three years of searching and two years of waiting, she, the silly big brother, has a deep-rooted love for clean water. "I'm hungry, let's eat." Murong Shuqing did not answer Qi Rui directly, but took his hand and walked into the warm and elegant pure water Yaxu.

Entering the front hall, Murong Shuqing saw Jingshui serving food at the table, and the appetizing aroma came on her face, Murong Shuqing walked up to her and asked with a smile, "Purewater, what did you make delicious? of?"

Purifying the water while placing the tableware and chopsticks, he replied, "Sweet and sour fish, crispy chicken."

Taking a deep breath, Murong Shuqing praised: "It's so fragrant!" Turning around and saying to Qi Rui behind him, "You have a good time today."

"Okay!" Jing Shui's shy face immediately after seeing him made him even more frustrated. Are he and she destined to be so relatively speechless!

Jingshui lowered his head and stopped looking at Qi Rui. He pretended to be busy placing tableware and chopsticks in his hands, making tea and serving dishes for a while, but he didn't let himself stop. Murong Shuqing couldn't stand it anymore, he grabbed her hand and pulled her to his side, "Pure water, don't be busy, let's eat, I'm hungry." She didn't know that the more she ignored Qi Rui like this on purpose , the more it means that she actually cares about him very much in her heart

"Miss, I..." Jing Shui stood beside Murong Shuqing, but refused to sit down.

"Pure water, sit down." Lu Yi walked behind her, put her hand on her shoulder, and pressed her firmly onto the seat. I really don't understand what's wrong with Pure Water. The eldest young master's affection for her couldn't be more obvious. She also secretly promised the eldest young master. Two people who clearly love each other, why bother each other!

Finally, everyone sat down. After eating a meal, it was quite pleasant. The purified water kept silent, but when he heard Qi Rui revealing some childhood memories during the banquet, he would also smile knowingly. While talking and laughing, Lu Yi got up, brought a large plate of plums in, placed it in front of Murong Shuqing as if offering a treasure, and said, "Miss, I bought this at the gate of the courtyard at noon today, and an old lady wants to carry a large basket of plums. Going down the mountain to sell it, it's so pitiful, I think this plum is not bad, so I bought it, you can taste it."

Is it plum season? It seems it hasn't arrived yet. However, although the plum in front of her was not big, the color was already very pleasing, rosy and lovely. Seeing Lvyi eagerly waiting for her to taste it, Murong Shuqing had no choice but to pick one up and put it in his mouth.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Lu Yi asked impatiently.

Murong Shuqing didn't tell her right away, chewed it carefully for a while, and then smiled at the three of them who were waiting for the answer: "You guys try it too?"

The three looked at each other, each took one, and put it in their mouth—

"Oh my God, it's so sour!" Lu Yi's face was instantly wrinkled, and he quickly spit out the sour plum in his mouth. After bringing the cups and pouring three cups of tea for them, he quickly took a big sip to dilute the sour taste in his mouth.

Qi Rui also squinted his eyes with sourness, drank half a cup of tea, and sat at the side leisurely, smiling at Murong Shuqing, who looked at them so bitterly, and scolded: "Qing'er, you are so bad, you are so sour that we still have to taste it. "He wasn't interested in plums in the first place, so he shouldn't be curious to try them. This girl is getting more and more refined, she has suffered a loss, and she will not make others feel better.

Murong Shuqing raised her eyebrows and smiled, and replied innocently, "How do you know if it's sour or sweet?"

She is also plausible! Qi Rui gently shook his head dotingly and pushed the plate of plums to the table. Now he felt sour just by smelling it. Jishui finally recovered, looking at the large plate of plums, thinking that there are still a lot of plums in the kitchen, and feeling worried, "It's a pity to lose so many plums, I'll go get some candy."

Pure water had already walked to the door, and Murong Shuqing suddenly thought of something and said to her, "Pure water, bring half a bowl of sugar and half a bowl of salt here."

What do you want salt for? Although he didn't understand, Jishui replied, "Yes."

After the purified water brought sugar and salt, Murong Shuqing placed the plums on two plates, one with sugar and the other with a thin layer of salt.

Lu Yi asked in confusion: "Miss, what are you?" She can understand adding sugar, but why add salt? Sour and salty, how strange is that

Murong Shuqing stirred gently, without explaining, he pushed the two plates in front of them, and said with a smile, "Try it again."

This time, they didn't dare to act rashly. The three of them chose sweetened sour plums. Although the sugar was added, they were not so sour, but they still felt that the sour taste was still filling the tip of the tongue, and they were unwilling to eat one more. As for the plate of salted plums, just imagining the sour and salty taste was daunting.

In the end, Lu Yi summoned up the courage, picked up one, and took a bite.

Lu Yi chewed it carefully, and felt that the taste was very special, not as unpalatable as she imagined. The sour feeling is still there, but after adding salt, it neutralizes a part of the sour taste, and feels faintly sweet. Lu Yi put the whole plum in his mouth, looked at Murong Shuqing curiously, and said, "Is the taste very different?"

Murong Shuqing smiled and asked, "Is it delicious?"

"Yeah." Lu Yi thought for a while and nodded. In fact, it is not delicious, but the taste is different from the previous fruit, very fresh and very special.

Qi Rui and Jing Shui saw that Lu Yi actually said that it was delicious. She even ate a few in a row, and their curiosity was aroused again. In the end, they each took one and ate it. After tasting it, the two of them were both sour and salty, as well as slightly sweet. After adding salt, it actually gave this plate of sour plums such a rich taste.

In fact, this is the unique way that she saw local people eat certain fruits when she traveled to the south before traveling through time. It is indeed unique in flavor. Let them try it today, and the purpose is not just that. Murong Shuqing looked at the floating tea leaves in the cup, and said lightly: "If it is sour, we usually add some sugar, because they are a perfect match in the eyes of the world, but in fact, adding salt also has a different flavor, so the world's affairs, There is no such thing as a match or a mismatch.”

She said this, not expecting that the water purification will suddenly get out of her own psychological barriers, but just hope that it will be a revelation to her.

Jingshui also sensed Murong Shuqing's intentions, and she lowered her head again without saying a word.

Qi Rui laughed loudly and said, "Well said."

Murong Shuqing looked at Qi Rui with a funny look and almost didn't raise his hands to express his approval. He couldn't help but tease: "Since it's so good, I'll let you take this whole basket of sour plums back and enjoy it slowly."

"Qing'er..." Qi Rui whispered sadly, causing a burst of happy laughter in the hut.

The night wind that kept hitting at night, cold and domineering, blew the candle flames flickering and flickering, as if to announce that the footsteps of severe winter were getting closer. Putting down the scroll in his hand, Murong Shuqing leaned on the thick wool soft couch behind him, and closed his eyes a little tiredly.

What hinders Jingshui and Qi Rui is Jingshui's inferiority complex and slight autism. To cure her, it cannot be solved overnight, and curing her face is a very important part of rebuilding her self-confidence. link. But that Chu Yin... Thinking of the scorching red, and the indifferent temperament, Murong Shu sighed softly, asking for his help, one word is difficult.

And the current situation of Qi's family also worried her. Although Qi Yun was hit by a sword, fortunately, his life was not in danger. The old man seems to be drinking tea and playing chess peacefully every day, but the secret men of Qi Mansion come and go frequently, and have already told her that the old man must know something and is planning something. Now I am afraid it is just the tranquility before the storm.

Someone is outside the window! Murong Shuqing suddenly opened his eyes and raised his hand slightly to tell Yan Yu not to act rashly. This man had been here for a while, but he was just looking out the window, but he didn't make any next move. It was not known whether he was an enemy or a friend, or he should just wait and see. become better.

Still leaning on the soft couch without moving, Murong Shuqing slowly closed his eyes, as if falling asleep. He felt the man in black pushed open the window, but he couldn't come in. Another black shadow stopped him. The way to go, and soon came the sound of fighting in the yard.

Murong Shuqing got up, and Yan Yu immediately appeared behind her. She thought it was Yan Yu who was worried about her safety and prevented people from entering the house, but now it doesn't seem to be the case. Since it's not Yan Yu, who is the person fighting outside? Murong Shuqing walked to the door and looked around, under the dim moonlight, he saw two entangled shadows fighting indissoluble.

The moonlight was too dark, and Murong Shuqing had to walk to the front of the courtyard to barely see the two fighting. Yan Yu followed closely behind, and other dark men who protected Murong Shuqing also appeared one after another, and they were scattered all over the courtyard, protecting Murong Shuqing at the very center. No one made a move, only quietly observing the two people in the courtyard.

Among the two, one of them was not masked, Murong Shuqing narrowed his eyes slightly, and the moon shadow flickered, but he still couldn't see his face, but those icy eyes let Murong Shuqing see at a glance that it was Mo Can. No one's eyes are so cold that she can't help but tremble when she sees it, not because of fear, but because of the emotionless coldness that will make her worry.

The masked man's martial arts are not weak, but after a few tricks, the masked man gradually couldn't stand it anymore, dodging and dodging, and he also looked embarrassed. Mo Can grabbed his hand, trapped the masked man's right hand, and turned his hand to exert force. The sound of bone dislocation was particularly clear in this dark night. The masked man groaned in pain, but this small voice made Murong Shuqing take a deep breath! She hurriedly took a few steps forward, her slender figure, jet-black hair, bright apricot eyes, and the repressed whisper just now, God, it's her...

The masked man's other unshackled hand still undefeated and fought back, causing a trace of impatience to pass through Mo Canbing's eyes, and a heavy punch was about to fall.

"do not want!"

Murong Shuqing exclaimed loudly, causing him to instantly regain his strength. The first time I saw this woman, I was shocked. Even when she was injured by Chi Lian and held hostage by coercion, she could still smile calmly. When she fell into a deep pool and became independent in the mountains, she could also calm down. The masked man made her look shocked.

Mo Can lost his mind for a moment, allowing the masked man to take advantage. The man pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed Mo Can. Mo Can turned around, dodging the fatal blow of the masked man, and at the same time, he also showed the scarlet, dark red light, and the trembling sword body, all screaming with thirst for blood.

Murong Shuqing had seen Chi Lian's sharpness and coldness, and he was sweating for the woman who didn't know her life or death. She can never be Mo Can's opponent, and she must never have any damage, otherwise the trouble will be big. In desperation, Murong Shuqing said to Yan Yu who was behind him, "Save her."

As soon as Murong Shuqing finished speaking, Yan Yu was already flying out, just in time to cut off the deadly sword that stabbed at the masked man. Cang Su wasn't there. Although Yan Yu's martial arts was high, he was still not Mo Can's opponent. Fortunately, Mo Can didn't intend to embarrass him this time. Taking the long sword, Mo Can stared deeply at Murong Shuqing, but there was still no emotion in the deep ice eyes. Just as Murong Shuqing was about to speak, a black shadow flashed in front of him, and Mo Can was nowhere to be found.

Murong Shuqing sighed softly, their meeting always seemed to be in such a hurry. It's not a sword fight, or it's falling into the water and getting hurt. I don't know what will happen next time
