"Holy girl, what is this?" Yun Zhi said as she walked out of the back room and saw an extra plate of things on the table.
"Waiting for you, Lan Zhao asked the little disciple to bring me some cakes. I'm afraid I won't be full tonight." Ruan Xianbei was leaning on the cave playing with the little squirrel. When he saw Yun Zhi come out, he sat up and asked, "Aren't you full too?" ?The food cooked by Wanhua Valley is too bland and lacks oil and water, and I will be hungry after a while."
"Hey! Where did this squirrel come from!"
Ruan Xianbei pointed to the window, "Those who came in through the window may be hungry. I'll give you a piece."
There were nuts in the jujube cake, and it smelled very fragrant. She picked up a piece of pastry, broke off a small piece, and handed it to the cute guest.
The little squirrel took the pastry with its two front paws and started to eat it.
"Oh..." Yun Zhi walked to the window and looked around. It was dark and no one was there. It was cold at night and she had better close the window.
"Ah Zhi, come and see, the way it eats is so cute." Ruan Xianbei wanted to touch its head, but it nimbly dodged it by turning sideways. She had never seen a squirrel up close before. At that time, this animal was fast and unlovable, and was not suitable for domestic use. She had only seen hamsters.
"Little white-eyed wolf, why don't you touch the food I gave you?" Ruan Xianbei said. The next second, the little squirrel suddenly coughed and fell off the table suddenly.
"Azhi!" Ruan Xianbei caught its falling body and shouted quickly and sternly.
Yun Zhi closed the window and looked back to find that Ruan Xianbei's face had changed. He walked to her side to take a look. Ruan Xianbei put the squirrel on the table. The squirrel was foaming at the mouth and twitching. There were food residues around its mouth. It was obviously poisoned. .
"Who is it?" Yun Zhi's voice was trembling, which they were completely unaware of. If she hadn't opened the window, if Ruan Xianbei hadn't waited for her, if there hadn't been that squirrel... then the person lying down now Who could it be?
"It's Lan——"
"Azhi." Ruan Xianbei interrupted her seriously, "Don't make any noise yet."
At this time, someone knocked on the door again, "Ruan Ruan, are you asleep? I brought you some cakes."
It's Lan Zhao.
Why has this time come?
The two looked at each other, Yun Zhi clenched her fist and made a mouth shape to Ruan Xianbei.
Ask?
Ruan Xianbei is not someone who likes to procrastinate and test things. She nodded and asked directly instead of guessing.
"Ruan Ruan?" Lan Zhao saw that the lights in the room were on but there was no sound. He was still thinking that he would not be here in the middle of the night, right? Then he glanced at Shen Xuan's room next door, which was also lit with lights, and a thought suddenly occurred to him, Ruan Ruan wouldn't go to Shen Xuan's room at this time, would he? Then she'd better go back. How embarrassing it would be to bump into her like this...
Lan Zhao took the plate and was about to go back, but the door opened.
"I thought you were asleep," she said, "I just went to the kitchen and brought some pastries. I want the cook to make them tonight."
Although the disciples in Wanhua Valley take turns cooking, they occasionally ask the cook to improve the food, but it is not as meticulous as the Demon Cult, so there is no problem with the taste.
"What's wrong? You look a little uncomfortable." Lan Zhao asked, walking in as she spoke, and when she saw a plate of pastries exactly like the one she was holding on the table, she felt something was wrong.
"Who brought it to you?" she asked.
"Didn't you ask someone to send it to you?"
"Me? No, I've just been chatting with Song Xun again. Seeing that it's getting late, I thought I'd come over first." As Lan Zhao spoke, she suddenly realized the meaning of this sentence and her beautiful eyes widened slightly. , said with surprise: "You mean, 'I' asked someone to bring this to you?"
Ruan Xianbei nodded, Yun Zhi closed the door, held the poor squirrel in front of Lan Zhao, and placed it on the table.
Lan Zhao picked up the poisoned pastry and smelled it, his expression changed slightly: "Oleander."
Oleander mostly grows in the south, and its flowers are mostly pale pink, large, bright and very beautiful. However, the entire oleander plant contains highly toxic substances and is one of the most toxic plants. If eaten by humans, it may cause death.
Highly toxic.
The three people looked solemn.
"Who sent it?" Lan Zhao asked.
"A little girl, short and thin, she looks about ten years old."
Little girls...many of their little girls and boys here...were adopted from homeless children.
Was it poisoned by a ten-year-old girl?
"I'll check it out."
"Goodbye now!" Ruan Xianbei stopped Lan Zhao and said, "Did you and Song Xun tell me...that thing?"
"No, how can I say that." Lan Zhao shook his head.
"Then we don't know whether the other party is coming for me or not. Do you understand what I mean? Why only give it to me? How did she know? Why did she do this? Did she not want us to Are you going to investigate what happened in Ten Thousand Flowers Valley or for some other reason? What’s more, first of all, I don’t remember that kid’s face, and secondly, it’s you who ordered me to tell you this, and I don’t know what their next plan is.”
Lan Zhao was silent. She was not as good as Ruan Xianbei in this regard.
"Otherwise..." Ruan Xianbei whispered a few words to Lan Zhao. Lan Zhao was confused at first and then frowned with an expression full of confusion.
"Is this okay? You won't be in danger, right?" Lan Zhao asked hesitantly.
Ruan Xianbei said seriously: "If you should cooperate with me in performing, please do your best. Get some rest early. I'm going to ask Shen Xuan what to do."
Lan Zhao: ...Okay, then I'll go.
Before leaving, Lan Zhao pointed at the plate of jujube cakes, "What about this one?"
"I'll put it away." Ruan Xianbei said, and Yun Zhi found a plain square towel from the baggage to wrap up the plate of poisonous pastries.
Perhaps Lan Zhao's worry and guilt were too obvious, so Ruan Xianbei comforted her and said, "It's okay. I, a lucky person, have their own celestial phenomena, and any trouble must be turned into good fortune."
Lan Zhao nodded and bit his lip, wondering whether he should take away the other plate of jujube cake. After thinking about it, he picked up a piece and ate it in front of them. He ate a big mouthful so quickly that he choked. Zhi quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to her to drink.
"This is not poisonous." Lan Zhao patted her chest and said. She always ate in small bites and chewed slowly, but she choked on her first big bite.
Ruan Xianbei laughed loudly, and each of him and Yun Zhi took a piece and put it in their mouths.
"It's delicious! Don't think too much, go back and have a rest." Ruan Xianbei pushed her out and said don't forget to apply snow cream, as her hard work must not be in vain.
Lan Zhao turned back three times, apologetically wondering if the stall in Wanhua Valley shouldn't involve them. But when he saw Ruan Xianbei pushing her away just to knock on Shen Xuan's door, the worry in his heart turned into speechlessness for a moment. Things, she curled her lips and thought to herself, Saint Ruan, you are worthy of being the one.
...
"Shen Xuan."
The lights were still on in the next room. Ruan Xianbei knocked on Shen Xuan's door, but no one answered. She just put her ear against the door to hear the sound, when the door creaked open, and she was caught off guard and jumped forward.
As soon as Shen Xuan opened the door, he saw Ruan Xianbei falling straight towards him.
The girl was a little panicked, and Beiqi let out an exclamation. A pair of bright eyes slightly widened and looked up at him, her hands trying to maintain balance in the air.
I don't know what Shen Xuan was thinking at that moment. He stood still and let her fall on him.
She hugged Shen Xuan...
"You like me so much?" Shen Xuan's low and magnetic voice sounded above her head.
"On purpose?" He continued, lowering his head and getting closer to the person in his arms. His warm breath fell on Ruan Xianbei's ear. If anyone was outside, it would seem that the two of them were kissing.
Shen Xuan was about a head taller than her, and Ruan Xianbei's head hit his chest. With the mentality of not taking advantage of the bastard, she circled her hand and hugged him, and said confidently: "This time it's really... It was not intentional."
"Ha." Shen Xuan chuckled softly. The vibration and resonance from his chest made Ruan Xianbei lose consciousness for a moment.
Shen Xuan didn't push her, and she didn't move either. The two of them remained in this position with the door open. If someone passed by, they would never be able to clear their relationship.
Shen Xuan must have just finished taking a shower. There was a faint scent of soap on her body, and the ends of her hair were still slightly wet, soaking the clothes on her back.
"I like you."
"You saved me in my dream, even though I died." Ruan Xianbei held him in a muffled voice, "I don't want to die, but I still want to like you."
"You will only like me if I die. I advise you to cherish now."
I don’t know how the originally sensational words came out of Ruan Xianbei’s mouth to sound like a threat.
"I don't like women who throw themselves into my arms." Shen Xuan looked at the girl's soft side face and long black silky hair, curled up the corners of her mouth, but said this very ruthlessly, took a step back and pushed her away. .
"I can't hold all cats and dogs." Ruan Xianbei stood firm and said angrily.
Shen Xuan said: "Miss Ruan, if you have time, go see the doctor."
"The doctor said that heart diseases have their own medicine, but if the medicine doesn't obey, I can't do anything."
The beauty of the room disappeared without a trace in just one or two conversations between the two, which is considered a skill.
"What do you mean you came here late at night?" Shen Xuan asked her, crossing her arms.
"Oh -" Ruan Xianbei finally remembered to do something serious and walked over to close the door and whispered: "Someone poisoned me."
"Poison?"
Shen Xuan frowned, and Ruan Xianbei took out the jujube paste cake wrapped in a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to him.
"Look, it's oleander."
"If it weren't for some mistake, Senior Brother Shen would never see me alive again." Ruan Xianbei recounted what happened just now and said a little aggrievedly.
"Miss Ruan is blessed with good fortune." After Shen Xuan said this, she took the handkerchief and lowered her head to smell it. Ruan Xianbei also took out a silver needle and inserted it into it. As expected, it turned black.
I really didn't hear that he was praising himself. Ruan Xianbei pouted and asked: "Is the other party trying to scare us?"
Shen Xuan glanced at her and said, "Maybe it's your personal grudge."
Ruan Xianbei's eyes widened and he said angrily: "Senior Brother Shen is so ruthless. Why didn't this greeting gift come to your room? Could it be that you think I'm easy to bully?"
"I don't eat sweets." Shen Xuan said, and then thought about the two men and two women they came this time. Only Ruan Xianbei and Lan Zhao have a better relationship. They are men. The other party may be taking advantage of this to make a time difference. At night The trick of giving desserts is the best if you can succeed. If you can't succeed, it can also give you a blow.
"At least it is certain that there is something wrong with the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers. I don't know what will happen next time if I miss it this time. You have to be careful in everything."
"Yeah." Ruan Xianbei nodded.
Shen Xuan wrapped the pastry and gave it back to her, "Put this away, but it's evidence."
"knew."
Shen Xuan opened the door and said as if seeing off guests, "I'm going to rest. Where will Miss Ruan sleep?"
"Hmph, Senior Brother Shen, don't think too much about beauty. I'll leave right now."
Ruan Xianbei returned to his room, and Yun Zhi was waiting impatiently, "Holy girl, can you just be more peaceful at night? What do you mean by running into someone else's man's room? What if Shen Xuan knows that you... ..What should we do if we indiscriminately eliminate harm for the people?”
"You're right." Ruan Xianbei kicked off his shoes and threw himself on the bed, "I will write a letter tomorrow asking Ah Cai to pretend to be me."
"Your identity?" Yun Zhi was making a bed for herself on the ground. When she heard these words, she stood up suddenly and almost hit the edge of the bed in front of her. She looked at Ruan Xianbei in disbelief.
"Look... I don't know why the other party came to me. Does it know my identity or is it just a show of force? So I have to throw out the bait. Otherwise, how long will this take? My brother is still waiting for me to come home for the New Year." Ruan Xianbei didn't think there was any problem and told her clearly and clearly.
Yun Zhi thought of a key question: "Does the leader know about your decision..."
Ruan Xianbei coughed twice in embarrassment and laughed, Yun Zhi already understood, she must not know! Another impromptu decision!
She will be doomed if she goes back this time! She couldn't bear the wrath of the leader's thunder. Wow, she was such a miserable slave girl.
"Don't worry, he will know. Go to sleep, don't think about it."
Ruan Xianbei turned off the lamp and got into bed, yawning, but her careless comfort had no effect, leaving poor Yun Zhi unavoidable all night long.
