Seeing Qi Yang standing there blankly and not moving for a long time, the old man spoke again: "Didn't that girl say that she would give food to the old man? Why are you hugging him so tightly?"
Qi Yang then let go of the cloth bag in his arms and untied it with one hand. In addition to food, there are some medicines inside, and these medicines are exactly what he needs at this time.
"Although these foods were originally prepared for you..." The old man looked at the bag of food and swallowed his saliva.
Qi Yang smiled and gave half of the food to the old man.
"This...this..." The old man couldn't help but burst into tears as he looked at the pastry in his hand that he had not eaten for decades. He eagerly stuffed a piece of pastry into his mouth.
"Slow down! Don't choke!" Qi Yang said worriedly.
Sure enough, the old man began to struggle painfully as he swallowed the entire pastry.
Qi Yang quickly walked to the pool, took some water with the bucket he jumped into the well yesterday and pulled it out, and handed it to the old man.
After the old man drank the water, he swallowed the food smoothly.
"It seems that these foods are not that delicious!" The old man angrily threw the other pastries aside.
Qi Yang no longer cared about the old man, sat aside and ate cakes.
Whether it was because he was hungry or because Ling'er had sent the pastries, Qi Yang felt that the pastries were extremely delicious and wanted to eat more after eating one piece.
He remembered that Ling'er had brought pastries yesterday, and they were of similar types. They should have been made by the same cook, right?
The old man asked in confusion: "That girl said that these should be used to replace the food that disappeared yesterday? What does that mean?"
Qi Yang coughed violently upon hearing this. It turned out that Ling'er had known that there was a dungeon under the dry well, and he specially sent some food to the old man yesterday, but he didn't expect that he would get in first!
"Didn't you tell me to eat slowly? Why did you choke too?" the old man teased.
Qi Yang did not answer, but sighed that Ling'er was kind-hearted. She must have learned from the "Blood Cave" that there were remnants of the Moon Burial Sect being imprisoned in Miaofeng Villa, so she went to find out where the dungeon was. Then she learned that no one had given food to the people in the dungeon all year round, and they secretly sent food yesterday. come over.
But will Ling'er's delivery of food like this attract Xu Jun's attention? He remembered that Xu Jun almost discovered the clue yesterday. If Xu Jun discovers this dungeon, the consequences will be disastrous. Qi Yang was inevitably a little worried.
"Who are you, that girl?" the old man suddenly asked.
Qi Yang was stunned and didn't know how to answer.
The old man said with great interest: "It should be someone from Miaofeng Villa, right? He risked being discovered to come here to deliver a message to you. How deeply affectionate he is!"
Qi Yang's face turned red. Fortunately, the light at the bottom of the well was dim and the old man couldn't notice it no matter how good his eyes were.
"If the news about that girl comes to be known, she will be in danger!" the old man added.
Qi Yang frowned. It wouldn't be a big deal if Ji Cangyu found out about Ling'er's tip. He was just thinking about why the old man in front of him was worried about Ling'er's safety. Did he want to take the opportunity to mention what happened last night again?
Sure enough, I heard the old man say: "The little girl is very affectionate for you, you can't let her take risks for you! Why don't you consider what the old man said last night, you let the old man go, and the old man will protect you and leave safely. You can also take that with you." Little girl. From now on, you can sleep together and fly together, and you don’t have to worry anymore."
This is indeed very tempting, if Qi Yang is really the kind of person the old man thinks he is.
In order to lurk at the bottom of the well for the time being, Qi Yang had no choice but to continue to pretend to be hesitant, and said coquettishly: "This is a big deal, let's think about it later."
The old man was a little angry, sat down, and continued: "What are you still hesitating about? Didn't you hear that girl say that Ji Cangyu was going to use a hound to find you? With the hound's nose, you have nowhere to run!"
"Isn't it good to find a hunting dog? Can seniors still have dog meat to eat?" Qi Yang took the opportunity to change the subject.
"What's so delicious about dog meat? Just don't bother me anymore. It's so smoky today that I almost choked to death!" the old man complained.
Qi Yang smiled disapprovingly. Both of them are martial arts practitioners. They can just hold their breath in the thick smoke. How can they choke to death?
The old man sighed secretly and had to lament that the young man in front of him was very cunning. Whenever he tried to persuade the other party to let him go, the other party would tactfully change the subject. Once or twice can be seen as a coincidence, but if it happens again and again, it is no longer a coincidence. He underestimated this young man!
Since cajoling doesn't work, you have to change your strategy, and there's an opportunity right in front of you.
Ji Cangyu desperately wanted to catch this young man, so he might as well use this young man to make a deal with Ji Cangyu and force Ji Cangyu to let him go.
The idea of catching this young man had occurred to him when he mistakenly thought that he was Ji Cangyu's son, and he had tried it, but it was difficult to realize it. This young man reacted extremely quickly and was not easy to deal with even if he was seriously injured.
But if a hound comes looking for him, can he take advantage of the young man's danger when he is attacked from both sides?
The old man had a wishful thinking in mind, and all his plans were based on his understanding that the well was too deep for the young man to get up by himself.
But this wrong understanding was instilled in him by Qi Yang.
In order to give himself a chance to heal, Qi Yang deliberately showed weakness in front of the other party, so that the other party could calm down and relax and slowly convince himself to let him go.
Qi Yang also had his own plans when he stayed at the bottom of the well. At first he wanted to take a rest, recuperate, and then wait until dark before leaving.
But now he had a new idea. Xu Jun may find this dungeon at any time, so he has to stay here to stop Xu Jun from saving people!
---
Xu Jun learned that Ling'er had run away and looked for someone personally.
As soon as he found Miaosi Yuan, he heard from his subordinates that Ling'er was returning to Miaoyu Yuan from Miaoyi Yuan. He stopped Ling'er directly at the entrance of Miaoyuyuan.
"Where did Ling'er go just now?" Xu Junpi asked with a smile.
"I went to Miaoyiyuan," Ling'er replied calmly, "Brother Jun, do you have anything to do with me?"
"It's nothing. I'm just sitting back and waiting. I have nothing to do. I came to see you." Xu Jun responded casually.
"Since there's nothing to do, Ling'er will excuse me first." Ling'er was in a bad mood, so she went back to her room by herself after saying that.
Xu Jun watched Ling'er walk away, thoughtfully.
According to reports from his subordinates, Ling'er brought some cakes with him when he went out, but now he came back empty-handed. Xu Jun felt that Ling'er had seen the man in black with a ghost face, so he hurried over to test it out to see if he could get any clues.
But I didn't expect that there was still sadness between Ling'er's eyebrows that couldn't be hidden. Why was this? Could it be that the ghost-faced man in black's injury isn't getting better?
No matter what, Xu Juncai didn't believe that Ling'er only went to Miaoyiyuan? Without mentioning anything else, where did the new mud stains on Ling'er's embroidered shoes come from?
Mud tracks? Xu Jun curled his lips, he seemed to have found an important clue.
