Just when Qin Chuan turned to look at the owner of the shadow, he couldn't help but froze: "Grandma Cui? Why is it you?"

Granny Cui, who has always been serious about words, unexpectedly showed a kind smile and said to Qin Chuan: "I was entrusted by an old friend to help you secretly... I didn't want to alarm you at first, but the situation is a bit tricky right now, so I want to meet you face to face. Let’s talk…”

"That's it. Senior Cui, please follow me to the guest room for a chat." Qin Chuan bowed respectfully and led the way.

Returning to the door of the guest room, Qin Chuan took a look at the guest room where Su Qiqi and Zheng Miao lived next door. The lights had been turned off, and they were probably asleep. Qin Chuan took Granny Cui to his room and asked her to stay in the room. Take a seat at the table by the window. He also pulled a round stool over and sat opposite Granny Cui.

Granny Cui looked at Qin Chuan's room and asked with a smile, "Mr. Qin, are you still used to living here?"

Qin Chuan nodded and said, "I often travel with my father to escort escorts. I have long been accustomed to a life of being at home all over the world..."

Granny Cui nodded slightly, then took a deep look at Qin Chuan and said, "Did your father tell you about Yao Nianchen from Seven Star Castle?"

"Yao Nian Chen? I haven't heard my father mention this person... Is she a friend of my father's?" Qin Chuan had no impression of Granny Cui mentioning the name, but looking at Granny Cui's expression, it seemed that this person was related to the Qin family. Close, Qin Chuan couldn't help but asked curiously.

Granny Cui's expression dimmed a bit, but she still covered it up with a smile: "It's all in the past, so don't mention it...but you, my child, have quite a bit of the magnanimity she had back then..."

"How do you say this?" Qin Chuan became more and more curious.

Granny Cui sighed and said, "I can't say much, so you'd better go back and ask your father..."

Seeing that Granny Cui didn't want to say anything, Qin Chuan suppressed his doubts and chatted with Granny Cui about other topics.

"Grandma, were you the one who helped us deal with those men in black last time at Qingxuan Temple?" Qin Chuan thought about it for a while, but decided to ask Granny Cui for confirmation in person.

Granny Cui nodded and said, "Yes, I killed those people with flying needles..."

Qin Chuan snorted and asked again: "Isn't it you who stopped the killer of the Yeyou Alliance that day in the teahouse..."

Granny Cui nodded again and said, "I promised Nian Chen that I would protect you and Rou'er..."

Qin Chuan was a little stunned. What happened to Granny Cui today? Why do you keep saying such incomprehensible things? He was about to ask what happened when he heard the sound of fighting coming from the next room, mixed with a faint scream!

"No! Something happened!" Qin Chuan grabbed the long sword on the table and rushed out without bothering to explain the reason to Granny Cui. Granny Cui also heard the strange noise coming from next door and hurriedly followed her.

Qin Chuan kicked open the door of the guest room and rushed in with Granny Cui. The two people who were fighting were stunned for a moment, and then the man in black turned over and jumped out of the window to escape.

Qin Chuan looked at Su Qiqi and saw that she was not injured, so he felt relieved. He walked to the side and helped up his shivering sister in the corner. He then told Granny Cui to look after the two sisters, and then jumped out the window to chase Hei. The clothes are gone.

After chasing him until he was near the Juxing Inn, the man in black suddenly whistled, and then more than a dozen men in black floated down from the roof near the Juxing Inn and surrounded Qin Chuan.

"Little brother, we meet again!"

A familiar voice sounded in my ears. Qin Chuan was shocked, Lin Quan was here too! It seems that a fierce battle is inevitable tonight!

They say that when faced with a narrow road, the brave will win, so I had no choice but to risk it all!

Thinking of this, he became more courageous and replied with some contempt: "Yes, I was a bit unlucky today, and encountered a vicious dog blocking the way..."

The leader, Lin Quan, the man in black, became a little angry after hearing Qin Chuan's words, but he pretended not to care and sneered: "Young man, don't be quick to talk for a while, you will always suffer a loss... …”

Qin Chuan also pretended to be indifferent: "Master, I've never been afraid of anyone... Don't think you can catch me if you have more people!"

Lin Quan said with some meaning: "Oh? Then let's give it a try..." After that, he waved his hand, and several men in black were ready to attack Qinchuan.

Qin Chuan said no more, immediately mobilized his inner strength, and moved his palms to push towards the two men in black closest to him. He saw that his palm skills were moving like a circle, and his moves were hitting the vital points of the men in black. The two men in black were beaten back several steps. Seeing that the situation was not going well, Lin Quan asked his men to take a few steps back and then personally stepped forward to fight Qin Chuan.

The two fought with fists and swords for dozens of rounds, and Qin Chuan gradually found himself at a disadvantage. The men in black who were originally watching the battle slowly began to gather around again, trying to cooperate with Lin Quan to capture Qin Chuan in one fell swoop.

Qin Chuan glared at them, quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind and thinking of a feasible escape strategy. Just as he was gritting his teeth and struggling to hold on, Su Qiqi arrived in time with Granny Cui, Protector Sun and others. The group joined the battle in a tacit understanding to distract Qin Chuan's pressure.

When Qin Chuan saw the reinforcements, he felt relieved and concentrated on dealing with Lin Quan. Lin Quan became a little uneasy. He joined the Ye You League as a temporary measure and did not really want to sacrifice his life for them. Looking at the current situation, I guess I couldn't take advantage, so I made a few feints and called the other men in black to retreat.

Su Qiqi and others did not give chase. They walked around the Juxing Inn and found no useful clues, so they returned to Tai'an Inn.

When they arrived at the inn, Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan discussed it, asked the waiter to open another guest room for Granny Cui to stay in, and then arranged for a secret sentry to be on duty at night, and then they went back to their rooms to rest with confidence.

It was getting dim the next day, and before Qin Chuan got up, he was woken up by a rapid knock on the door. He opened the door sleepily, only to see Protector Sun standing at the door in a panic and saying: "Master Huikong is dying, you and Miss Nangong go and have a look... He said he has something important to tell you two. …”

"What did you say? What happened to Master Huikong? Wasn't he fine last night?" Qin Chuan asked in disbelief.

Protector Sun hesitated for a moment and said: "He said he suddenly had a stomachache in the middle of the night, and then he went out for a while... He vomited blood when he came back. He forced himself to come to my room and asked me to call you and Miss Nangong..."

After listening to his words, Qin Chuan felt his head tightening. He quickly went to the next door to wake up Su Qiqi and Zheng Miao, and the four of them went downstairs to find Master Huikong.

Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan were startled as soon as they opened the door to the guest room.

The room was in a mess, with a few books and some sundries piled randomly on the floor. Master Huikong was sitting feebly by a cupboard, with a little blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. The young castle master was squatting next to him, holding his arm nervously, for fear that the old monk would faint.

"Old man, are you okay?" Qin Chuan stepped forward to check Master Huikong's injury. After the examination, he walked to Su Qiqi and Zheng Miao with a depressed look on his face and whispered: "Master Huikong may not survive the night..."

Su Qiqi and Zheng Miao both felt a little sad and murmured: "How could this happen?"

Qin Chuan sighed and looked at the semi-conscious Master Huikong with some worry.

At this time, Granny Cui also came in. She also stepped forward to check the injury of Master Huikong. After seeing it, she shook her head and said: "Master's injury is too serious, and there is nothing I can do about it..."

Su Qiqi couldn't help but frown after hearing Granny Cui's words. Even the well-known pharmacists in the world can't save Master Huikong, who else can turn things around?
