for sheath

Chapter 12

Xi Cang hurried back, but before stepping into the gate of the courtyard, he smelled a faint smell of blood from a distance.

"Master!" His heart skipped a beat, and he rushed into the courtyard in three steps at a time.

I saw a figure lying motionless under the red plum tree. His body was covered with red plum petals, the snow under his body was also dyed red, and a sword fell beside him.

Seeing that the man was dressed in a moon-white costume, Xi Cang turned his head and rushed into the room without stepping forward to check.

Xi Qing was still sitting on the edge of the bed meditating perfectly, but the white fox cloak that was put on him before leaving fell aside.

"Master?"

Xi Cang was still worried, and after reaching out his hand to find that his breath was calm as usual, the hanging heart finally fell to the ground, but the heart still couldn't stop beating.

"Master..."

Xi Cang sighed, hugged him tightly, and quietly waited for the restless emotion in his heart to calm down.

Xi Qing slowly opened her eyes, and said coldly, "How is things going?"

Xi Cang released him, and replied, "Hua Ruomeng has finished telling the story of 20 years ago, but the story of ten years ago has not been finished yet."

"What is her attitude towards you?"

"She said I was a gentleman."

Xi Qing looked up at him, her eyes were clear and cold, without any warmth, "I want you to seduce her, not to be a gentleman."

Xi Cang frowned, "Why?"

"If you want to know why, just do what I say."

Seeing that he closed his eyes again, Xi Cang suddenly thought of the person in the courtyard, "Master, who is the person outside?"

Xi Qing stopped talking.

Knowing that it would be useless to ask any more questions, Xi Cang went to the courtyard to check whether the man was dead or alive. He didn't want to turn over the man's body to see his face clearly under the weak light, but he was startled.

"Mei Qi?"

No wonder the sword looked familiar before, but why is he here?And why was he so badly injured?Could it be that Master hurt him?Xi Cang hurriedly took his pulse, and after feeling the faint beating, he hurriedly dragged him into the room.

After checking his body for him, he only found a slight sword wound on the vital part of his left chest. Fortunately, it was off by an inch, otherwise his life would be difficult to save even if the god Da Luo came.The bleeding from the wound had stopped, so Xi Cang helped him clean it up again, and even found Jinchuang Yao to make a simple bandage for him.

After doing all this well, Xi Cang considered a new question, should he be sent back to Meiying Bieyuan, or should he stay for now?Presumably his injury was mostly related to Master, and he didn't know what happened between them. If he was sent back like this, if he and Hua Ruomeng filed a complaint, then the matter of Master might be exposed .Seeing that he is about to figure out the entanglement between Master and Hua Ruomeng, if the truth is revealed because of this, wouldn't all his hard work these days be in vain?After much deliberation, Xi Cang decided to keep him here first, and wait for him to wake up.

The other room was always empty, just enough for him to rest. Xi Cang tidied up and helped him to lie on the bed.He also found that his forehead was a little hot, so after thinking about it, he decided to find a doctor for him to have a look.

The doctor came quickly, and after careful inspection, Xi Cang wrote a prescription. Xi Cang sent the doctor away, and hurried to the pharmacy to get the medicine and fry it.After the medicine was decocted, Mei Qi was still unconscious, and it took Xi Cang a lot of effort to make him drink the medicine.

After all this work, it was already dark, and Xi Cang didn't have any appetite to make dinner again. After serving the master to take a bath, he went to rest early.

In the early morning, he was awakened by another noise, and hurriedly put on his clothes and went out to check.

The master was still practicing swords in the courtyard, while Mei Qi, with a pale face and weak body, still stood there bravely and insulted the master.

"Who are you? Since you dare to hurt me, don't you dare to report your name?"

"What is your relationship with that barbarian surnamed Xi?"

"Are you dumb? If you don't speak again, believe it or not, I will lead someone to destroy your place right away?"

Let him curse and yell, Xi Qing didn't even look at him from the beginning to the end.

"Where is my master's sword? Give me back my sword! I want to fight you!"

Mei Qi tried all kinds of provocations but didn't see any response from the beauty in black. She was so angry that she blushed and her neck was thick. She wanted to make a move, but found that her sword had disappeared.

"Your sword is with me." Xi Cang said suddenly.I took away his sword yesterday because I was afraid that he would do something stupid again.

Mei Qi turned her head to look, and her anger became even hotter, "It's you! You barbarian! You came just in time, I have something to ask you!"

Xi Cang was not affected by his emotions at all, and just said indifferently, "I also happen to have something to ask you."

Mei Qi snorted, "Then I have to wait until I finish asking." He pointed at Xi Qing, and said bluntly, "Who is he?"

Xi Cang frowned imperceptibly, and thought to himself, if he told Hua Ruomeng that he went down the mountain alone, if he told Mei Qixi that Xiqing was his master at this time, then it would definitely be inappropriate, and the master would also It seems that he doesn't want to let other people know his identity. In this case, he can only tell a lie to hide his identity.

"He is my brother."

"Your senior brother?" Mei Qi looked at the two of them again, but she didn't have doubts, but her tone was bad, "Then is your senior brother dumb and deaf? Why does he ignore me when I talk to him?"

Xi Cang frowned, "Brother is just cold-tempered and doesn't like to talk."

When Mei Qi heard this, she couldn't help becoming angry again. This barbarian didn't take him seriously, and the extra senior brother even regarded him as air. These two senior brothers are really hateful! "You are deceiving people too much! I will not let you go! You have to wait for me!" He staggered and left with his sleeves shaken.

Xi Cang stepped forward to stop him, and said, "I haven't asked my question yet."

"Why should I answer you! Get out of the way!"

"It's not difficult to get out of my way, as long as you answer my question."

"I don't want to answer you! What can you do?"

Xi Cang said nothing, just stared at him closely, and didn't give way.

Mei Qi stared back without showing any weakness, but it was a pity that he was injured, and before he could last long, a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

Xi Cang didn't really want to embarrass him. After all, he and Hua Ruomeng still had an unclear relationship. If he offended him at this time, it would be difficult to explain to Hua Ruomeng.Seeing that his lips were pale, and his body couldn't help trembling slightly, he couldn't help sighing softly, and stretched out his hand to grab his wrist.

"What do you want to do? Let go of me, my lord!" Mei Qi was seized by this man for the second time. She was shocked and angry, and she was also faintly afraid. If he really wanted to harm her at this time , then I have no chance to resist at all.

Xi Cang dragged the man into the house, and forced him back on the bed, "If I want to kill you, it's easy, but you can rest assured, you and I have no enmity, I will not do anything to you, but you Now that you are injured, if you want to survive, it is best not to move around."

Mei Qi snorted coldly, and looked at him fiercely, "Now you are pretending to be a good person for me. Who do you think my injury is due to?"

"who is it?"

"Of course it's your good deaf-mute brother!"

Xi Cang only said indifferently, "Although my senior brother has a cold personality, he never takes the initiative to cause trouble, let alone actively hurt others."

Mei Qi's expression flickered, but she still said stubbornly, "I greeted him kindly, but he ignored me. I just wanted to teach him how to be polite to a villager in the mountains, but he actually hurt people." , I haven't settled this account with him yet!"

After hearing this, Xi Cang probably understood why he was injured, but there was still one thing he didn't know, "Why did you come here?"

"My lord is just strolling casually. You are not here in the inner garden of the palace. Can I still come?" Mei Qi said, pointing at the simple room with a look of disgust, "You don't Look at what poor place you are here, I still think highly of you!"

Having basically understood why he was here and why he was injured, Xi Cang breathed a sigh of relief, so even if Hua Ruomeng found out, it would be easy to explain.Mei Qi was still complaining endlessly, Xi Cang stepped forward and stuffed his wobbly arms into the quilt, and said, "I'm going to decoct the medicine for you now, you should have a good rest first."

Mei Qi was taken aback for a moment, until he went out of the room, and then shouted again, "Who knows if you will poison the medicine, I am not a stranger!"

When Xi Cang came to the courtyard, Xi Qing had finished practicing the sword and was staring at the plum blossom tree in a trance.Although there was no snow today, but there was a knife-like cold wind, Xi Cang went back into the house to fetch the white fox cloak, and walked over to gently wrap it on for him.

Xi Qing opened her mouth lightly, "Is he Mei Qi?"

"Yes."

"A man with flowers like dreams?"

Xi Cang thought for a while and said, "It's rumored outside, but I think they are more like siblings."

Xi Qing stood quietly for a while before going back to the room.

Only then did Xi Cang hurry to burn the stove, decoct medicine, and cook porridge. Although he was busy, he did not mess around.After the medicine was cooked, he filled another bowl of porridge and served it to Mei Qi.

Mei Qi didn't even look at it, "Who knows what you're thinking about when a weasel wishes a new year to a chicken? I don't want to be poisoned to death by you!"

"If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't go around such a big circle and make trouble for myself."

"Cut! I won't take any medicine prescribed by any quack doctor!"

"Whether you eat it or not, your body belongs to you, and you don't cherish it yourself, let alone worry about it for you."

Mei Qi stared at him, "Do you think the aggressive method is useful to me?"

Xi Cang put down the medicine and porridge for him, "Whatever you want."

Seeing that he turned around and left, Mei Qi deliberately said, "I'm injured, my body has no strength, how can I eat?"

"I don't have a maid here." Xi Cang didn't want to pay any attention to this arrogant son, and went out without looking back.

Mei Qi was so angry that she scolded him behind his back, "You wait for me, I won't let you step into Meiying Bieyuan again!"

Xi Cang let him toss about in the room, but turned a deaf ear to him.
