Qi Surong slowly opened his eyes. The injuries on his body had been treated. Looking at the simple house in front of him, he felt as if he was in another world.
"Little woman, are you awake?" The door of the room was opened, and a plainly dressed old man walked in, with a white beard and a fluttering white beard, standing backlit, like the Buddha coming to the world.
When Qi Surong saw the visitor, tears welled up in his eyes.
It's a master, really a master.
"Oh, why are you crying?" Yun Youzi touched his wrinkled face and asked doubtfully, "Did I accidentally reveal my true form and scare you?"
Qi Surong smiled, but the master was still unreliable as always.
"Crying and laughing at the same time, so silly." Yun Youzi muttered, "I won't bring back a silly girl, right?"
"Master." Qi Surong struggled to sit up and bowed, "Surong thanks you for saving my life."
Yun Youzi waved his hand and said, "Okay, I don't want to see others coming and going."
"Okay, listen to master." Qi Surong straightened up and looked at Yun Youzi with a smile.
Yun Youzi put down the bamboo basket on his back: "You little woman are so weird. You don't care about your own body when you wake up?"
"I feel that as long as the master is here, there is nothing to worry about." The moment she saw the master, she really felt more at ease than ever before.
"Do you know me?" Yun Youzi glanced at her doubtfully.
Qi Surong smiled and said: "I think I have a destiny with the master. Maybe we knew each other in my previous life."
"Haha, really?" Yun Youzi said with great interest, "I must have been a kind man in my previous life, otherwise how could I have met a girl like you?"
"Yes, Master is the kindest."
"Don't be a shabby old man." Yun Youzi quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm telling you that your health is not very good, you are weak and weak, and you have old diseases. Although you usually pay attention to your health, you are too worried and the root of the disease is difficult to get rid of. .”
"Master, can you help me treat it?"
"I'm busy. I'll write you a prescription later. You can make up your own mind."
"Okay." Qi Surong nodded obediently.
"Well, not bad." Yun Youzi packed up the things in the bamboo basket one by one, turned around and walked out of the house.
Qi Surong quickly followed and walked out of the door, only to find that it was completely white outside. Overnight, the ground was covered with a layer of white snow. The cold wind was blowing, and she couldn't help but shudder.
Seeing Yun Youzi picking up the broom and preparing to sweep the snow, Qi Surong stepped forward and said, "Master, let me do it."
Yun Youzi glanced at her: "Let you come? What can you do with your hands?"
Qi Surong looked at her bandaged fingers and laughed to herself, almost forgetting that there was an injury on her hand.
"Master, can you do me a favor?"
"What's the deal?"
"Save my husband, he has been poisoned and is dying."
"No, no, no." Yun Youzi dropped the broom, turned around and left.
Qi Surong did not chase him, but shouted at his back: "If you don't save me, I will stay here and not leave."
Yunyouzi disappeared into the village without looking back.
Qi Surong inquired around and found out that this was Yanwei Village, about fifty miles away from Luocheng. Yunyouzi had just arrived here from Linshan two days ago and happened to meet Qi Surong who had fainted on the way.
She wrote a letter and asked people in the village to go to the inn where Gu Jinyun was staying. Even if he has left, someone should be arranged to stay behind. I hope everything is safe in Jinyun...
A day ago, Gu Jinyun watched Qi Surong being kidnapped, and almost went crazy. After repelling the two masked men, he immediately rushed out of the inn, but by the time he chased them out, they had already disappeared. He returned to the inn, leaving one person behind to wait for news, and then took the others to follow.
The masked man who kidnapped Qi Surong ran in a hurry, leaving many traces along the way. Gu Jinyun and his party chased all the way, and finally caught up with a remote ancient house at dawn. However, the ancient house was empty, and only a room with blood stains everywhere was found.
Gu Jinyun picked up a piece of clothing rag on the ground, his face was terrifyingly gloomy. When Su Rong was taken away, he was only wearing a thin piece of clothing, the texture of which was exactly the same as the rag in his hand. The bed was in a mess, vase fragments were scattered on the floor, and blood stains remained for no more than three hours. It was difficult for him to comfort himself that Su Rong was fine.
Squeezing the rag in his hand tightly, Gu Jinyun couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood. His muscles all over his body spasmed and he suddenly fell to his knees.
"Master!" Liuzi rushed forward and hurriedly supported him.
Gu Jinyun closed his eyes, took out a jade pendant from his arms, handed it to the six sons, and ordered: "Go to the nearest Gu family store and ask them to secretly search for the wife's traces. In addition, send someone to pay attention to Feng Zhan's movements. Don't let any troubles arise. Let it go.”
After saying this, Gu Jinyun fell straight to the ground and fell into a coma.
Gu Jinyun, who fell into a coma, had constant nightmares. He heard Su Rong asking him for help again and again, but he could only look around in the darkness like a headless fly. He felt like he couldn't breathe just thinking about how hurt and insulted she might be.
For the first time, he clearly realized that he was too weak to protect the woman he loved. He is not afraid of business losses and troubles. As long as his foundation is still there, he can make a comeback. He would give it up if he had to, without any hesitation. But he forgot that his enemy was not the common people, but a powerful party. No matter how he retreated or defended himself, he could not compete with them.
Su Rong was kidnapped. Even if he knew who did it, could he rob someone openly without any evidence? cannot.
Feng Zhan can completely imprison Su Rong. Unless he disregards the safety of his family, he can only swallow his anger for the time being and let him possess his woman, and then wait for an opportunity to take revenge.
This would be a long process, but Gu Jinyun couldn't bear it even for a moment. Su Rong belongs to him alone and he does not allow anyone to tarnish it!
He opened his eyes suddenly and was soaked with sweat. Gu Jinyun felt some bumps under his body and found that he was on the carriage.
"Sixth son." He sat up and shouted outside the car.
"Master, are you finally awake?" Liu Zi opened the curtain and quickly jumped into the carriage.
"Where are you going?"
"Yanwei Village." Liu Zi replied with a smile.
"Yanwei Village?" Gu Jinyun looked at him doubtfully.
Liu Zi took out a letter from his arms and explained: "We received a letter from my wife yesterday. She is in Yanwei Village at the moment. She also found Yun Youzi, so we can rush to meet her."
Gu Jinyun's eyes lit up, he quickly glanced at the letter, and a big stone finally fell in his heart.
Great, she's fine. Although he didn't know why she appeared in Yanwei Village, as long as she was safe, he had nothing else to ask for.
Gu Jinyun ordered the driver to speed up and rush to Yanwei Village as soon as possible.
On the other side, Qi Surong was very happy when she received the news that Gu Jinyun was coming to Yanwei Village. She stood outside the door and looked around, waiting eagerly.
However, one day passed and Gu Jinyun did not arrive as expected.
Qi Surong thought to himself that maybe he was delayed on the way and he should arrive tomorrow.
However, another day passed and Gu Jinyun was still missing.
Qi Surong felt a little uneasy, so she ran to the entrance of the village with her injuries and waited in the cold wind.
Three or four days passed like this, and Qi Surong finally determined that something had happened to Gu Jinyun. She once again asked someone to go to the inn to inquire about the information, but learned that the person who had stayed behind had left. She left when she received the news that Gu Jinyun was leaving for Yanwei Village. Obviously, something happened to them on the way to Yanwei Village.
Could it be that Feng Zhan moved his hands and feet again? Qi Surong was flustered and didn't know what to do. The master is afraid that he will not stay in Yanwei Village for a long time. Once he leaves, it will be difficult to find someone else. She couldn't ask the master, so she could only follow him. But in this case, how should she find out about Jin Yun
For the current plan, it seems that the only option is to confess everything to the father-in-law and the others and ask them to send people to find Jin Yun's whereabouts.
"I hope you are safe and sound, Jinyun." Qi Surong prayed to the sky with her hands together, and then went to find her master.
When Yun Youzi saw her, he immediately ran away. Qi Surong grabbed him with quick eyes and hands, and begged: "Master, life is at stake, you must save me."
"You still have a long life, don't you need me to save you?"
"My husband's whereabouts are unknown now. I have to go home to find someone for help. Can you come back with me?"
"Why do I go back with you?"
"I'm penniless, so I have to ask the master to help me with my travel expenses."
Yun Youzi looked at her confusedly: "Does I look like a rich man?"
"Although you are not a rich person, the small tolls should not be a problem for you."
"Don't come here." Yun Youzi waved his hand, "I am not someone who has been taken advantage of, and I will not give you travel expenses."
Qi Surong looked at him and said, "Master, you said you were a good person before? This won't help you at all."
"No matter how much you say, I won't help you." Yun Youzi straightened his clothes and strode outside.
Qi Surong followed step by step: "Master, if you don't help, I will follow you to the ends of the world, eat your food, drink your food, use your food, and recite the Three-Character Sutra to you every day."
"You really have a heart like a snake and a scorpion." Yun Youzi clicked his tongue, but his steps did not slow down at all.
"Master—" Qi Surong shouted in a long tone.
Yun Youzi covered his forehead and said feebly: "Okay, I'll give you a few taels of silver. Can you go back quickly?"
"Master, don't worry about me traveling alone as a woman?" Qi Surong continued, "If something goes wrong with me on the road, won't you feel guilty?"
"Looking at your fierce appearance, what could possibly go wrong?"
"Master, I don't have the power to restrain a chicken, how can I be evil?" Qi Surong continued his verbal attack, "Besides, if you lend me travel expenses, I have to pay it back? You go with me, and I will ask you to take care of me on the way. I will definitely eat well when I get back. The drinking ground is provided for you.”
"Humph, I don't care."
"You don't care about it, I do!" Qi Surong said with a smile, "Since you like to travel around, why not make your next stop in the capital?"
"I only like to place my love on mountains and rivers, and don't like the noisy market."
"Master, the capital is not noisy at all."
"Hmph, the capital is about to be turned upside down. Isn't it still noisy?"
Qi Surong thought. Could it be that the master had already noticed the situation in the capital? Several princes are fighting fiercely, and it is estimated that the throne will change hands in less than a year or two.
It may not be a good thing for her to go back now. Not only that, it would be best for the Gu family to hide away temporarily. It's a pity that her father was banned by the emperor and was not allowed to leave the capital. Otherwise, he should stay away from the place of right and wrong in time.
Qi Surong thought about it and decided to send someone to deliver a letter to Gu Yufeng, asking him to secretly search for Jin Yun's whereabouts. At the appropriate time, tell the father-in-law about the matter.
She rubbed her forehead and tried to stay calm, firmly believing that Jin Yun must still be alive. She couldn't get into trouble and put the entire Gu family in danger.
But she had to be anxious, because Jinyun only had one month left.
Jinyun, where are you now
