Li Changtian opened his eyes and rested on the bed for a long time, but Yan Shu didn't come to call him to eat.
Adhering to the concept of making enough food and clothing by doing it yourself, Li Changtian got up, put on his coat, and went to look for Yan Shu.
Li Changtian walked to the door of Yan Shu's guest room, raised his hand to knock, but found that the door of Yan Shu's guest room was ajar and not closed tightly, as if he left in a hurry and forgot to close it.
Li Changtian was puzzled, he opened the door and walked in, and saw that the windows were wide open in the empty guest room, and there was no sound.
"Yanshu?" Li Changtian called out twice.
No response.
Li Changtian looked around and found that Yan Shu's saber was missing, guessing that he might be out on business, so he sat in the guest room and waited for him.
This time, Li Changtian didn't wait for Yanshu to come back when the willows were on the top of the moon.
Li Changtian folded his arms and sat at the wooden table in the guest room, waiting anxiously.
He is not impatient.
He can quietly lurk in the mud for a day in order to carry out the task.
But now that Yan Shu has not returned, Li Changtian is inexplicably depressed.
He turned his head and looked out of the window, the night was dark, the moon was shining brightly and the stars were sparse, but Yan didn't know where he was.
At this moment, hurried footsteps came from outside the guest room.
Li Changtian thought it was Yan Shu who had returned, his eyes lit up, he covered his injured belly and got up to open the door: "Yan Shu! You are considered to be back, where are you going..."
Li Changtian's words stopped abruptly.
The person outside the door is not Yan Shu, but Zhong Li.
Zhongli looked flustered and out of breath, he obviously ran over in a hurry, he was panting really badly, clutching the door frame tightly, unable to say a word.
"Are you looking for Yan Shu?" Li Changtian guessed, "He's not here, and I don't know where he went. Are you okay? Why are you running in such a hurry? Let me get you a glass of water." Li Changtian turned and went to the guest room. walk in.
Zhongli grabbed Li Changtian's arm and shouted suddenly.
"Lord Li, something may have happened to Lord Yan!"
-
Jinsefang, on the second floor of Qinglu Pavilion, in the Shihuanian wing.
The wing room was turned into a mess, all treasures, books, tables and chairs were lying on the ground pitifully, there were still many traces of fighting in the room, and knife marks and sword marks could be seen everywhere.
The three pavilion masters of Feng, Hua, and Xue Pavilions are all there, and all of them have dignified expressions.
Zhong Li led Li Changtian here, brought a scabbard to Li Changtian: "Lord Li, look, this is Lord Yan's scabbard?"
Li Changtian took the scabbard, looked at it for a while, and nodded solemnly.
"It was found on the ground in Jinsefang Street, and there were bloodstains next to the scabbard," Zhongli said.
"Bloodstains?" Li Changtian looked at the mess in the wing room, his complexion became a little pale, he squatted down, and began to search the room, trying to find clues.
The Pavilion Master of Fengge couldn't hold his breath anymore, he opened his mouth hastily, pointed at Li Changtian, and demanded sternly: "Who are you and that young master from yesterday? Why did something happen to the Fangzhu after you two took the token to see the Fangzhu?!"
"Sister Feng, don't worry, the two sons are from Dali Temple in the imperial court, and they have no malicious intentions, I can assure you." Zhong Li quickly explained, every word was protecting Li Changtian.
"The people of the imperial court are not the same as us." The Pavilion Master of Hua Pavilion said with a cold tone.
"Two sisters." The Pavilion Master of Xuege said softly, "We can't trust these two young masters, can we still trust Ah Li?"
Both the Pavilion Masters of Huage and Fengge fell silent.
Suddenly, a girl trotted up from downstairs in a hurry, called the names of the four pavilion masters, and handed over a letter.
The four of them read the letter, looked at each other in blank dismay, and then left one after another, only Zhongli and Li Changtian were left in the wing room.
Li Changtian was half-squatting on the ground and inspecting everything carefully. When he came back to his senses, he looked up and found that Zhongli was the only one left in the room. He couldn't help but asked in confusion, "Huh? Where are the other three pavilion masters?"
Zhongli said softly: "Just now the owner of the workshop asked someone to send a letter, let us not look for her during this time, Jinsefang will be taken over by the four pavilion owners for the time being, and everything will remain as usual."
"Did she say what happened? Or where is Yan Shu?!" Li Changtian hurriedly asked
Zhong Li shook his head.
Li Changtian was immediately disappointed.
He sighed, lowered his head in panic, and suddenly noticed a cloud-patterned gold leaf lying on the carpet beside the overturned sapphire coffee table. The gold leaf looked extremely abrupt on the white and gray carpet.
Li Changtian felt that this piece of moiré gold leaf was very familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it before. He walked over and bent down to pick up the gold leaf. Unexpectedly, such a bow hurt his abdomen, causing him a burst of pain. Trembling, when I straightened up, I felt dizzy and fell directly to the ground.
"Lord Li?" Zhong Li was startled, and quickly stepped forward to help him.
Li Changtian couldn't stand up, his eyes turned black.
"Master Li, are you okay? What's wrong with you?" Zhong Li asked in a panic.
"It's okay." Li Changtian waved his hand, "I'm just..."
He sighed faintly and said unrepentantly.
"hungry."
Zhongli: "..."
Li Changtian hadn't eaten since last night, he had been hungry for a whole day, and he was seriously injured, no one could support him.
Fortunately, since Jinsefang is the number one song and dance workshop in Baidi City, it is naturally not bad for delicacies from mountains and seas.
Zhong Li helped Li Changtian back to his room, and called someone to bring a table of delicacies, and put them one by one in front of Li Changtian.
Li Changtian salivated, his eyes glowed green with hunger, and he still wanted to say: "But I have no money..."
Zhong Li said mildly: "Master Li is joking."
Li Changtian spoke righteously: "I'm not joking, I really have no money."
Zhongli: "..."
Stop nagging and eat quickly! Your eyeballs are about to drop into that plate of sweet and sour pork!
Zhongli persuaded: "Master Li, even if you insist on giving money, I will not accept it. Please rest assured and eat."
Li Changtian quickly picked up the chopsticks, he was about to pick up some food, but he put it down again suddenly.
Zhongli: "Huh? What's the matter, my lord, why don't you eat?"
Li Changtian scratched his head, and asked with some embarrassment: "Can I pack it and take it back to the inn?"
Zhongli was confused: "Why?"
Li Changtian looked at the scabbard beside Yan Shu that was supposed to be worn around Yan Shu's waist, and said softly.
"Yan Shu may have returned to the inn, I want to go back and have a look."
"He probably hasn't eaten yet, he's still hungry."
"It's hard to be hungry, and I don't want him to be hungry too."
