The only light coming from the window fell on Chen Qingzhou. Under his slim black dress, his slender fingers blocked his bright eyes.
Qin Ling felt it, and the inexplicably rising new curse on Li Huixi was forcefully invading her body.
This also corresponds to Li Huixi's body. Now it is difficult for her to withstand the attack of the suture monster. If Chen Qingzhou hadn't come to the rescue today, the two of them would have ended up here.
Chen Qingzhou moved very quickly. After unlocking the lock for the two of them, the monsters downstairs also swarmed up. Chen Qingzhou knew that he did not have as strong a combat capability as Li Huixi, so he took out a piece of red cloth from his pocket and sorted it out. The folds pulled the four corners and covered the airtight wall.
With a slight finger, the wall where the big red cloth was attached suddenly looked like a secret door, and the center turned around on its axis. Chen Qingzhou's trick was successful again, and he pulled the two of them and jumped off the building.
But as soon as her feet lifted off the ground, Qin Ling noticed something was wrong. She and Li Huixi had only reached the second floor, but it seemed as high as twelve stories in front of them.
The world outside was also different from when he first came in. This scene couldn't help but make Qin Ling's legs go limp.
When Chen Qingzhou jumped downstairs, he took the red cloth back, rolled it up in his hands, and blew gently. The next second, the sound of air being injected appeared from Qin Ling's head.
Chen Qingzhou has used this piece of red cloth to make a simple parachute. Qin Ling is holding Li Huixi, and Chen Qingzhou is controlling the balance of the three. Pedestrians on the street can't help but feel excited when they see the three young people flying in the sky. After paying attention, the scene suddenly became noisy.
By the time they reached the ground, Li Huixi had been tortured to the point of drowsiness by the poison. Before she closed her eyes, she saw that the so-called mission location that the two of them had entered had instantly disappeared. The original location was an unoccupied place. Unfinished building.
"It is indeed...a trap..."
With this last sentence in his mind, Li Huixi fainted.
Chen Qingzhou waved his hand and stopped a taxi without passengers.
"Master, go to Eighty-Eight City quickly."
Eighty-Eight City was the place where Qin Ling took Li Huixi and Fox to visit last time, and it was also where Chen Qingzhou worked.
Temporarily free from the threat, Qin Ling asked Chen Qingzhou:
"How did you come?"
Chen Qingzhou was silent.
"You spy on me?"
Chen Qingzhou then turned his head from the co-pilot and said softly:
"No... I just don't want to watch our casino's cash cow wither in a place like this."
Qin Ling curled his lips. This reason made sense, but this guy hung out in the casino every day, and there was no trick he didn't know. No matter what, he followed her, which made Qin Ling feel a little uncomfortable.
Looking at Li Huixi who fainted, Qin Ling finally remembered that she had left two people behind, Fox and Duan Jiang. They were still not far away, and they had temporarily lost contact.
When they arrived at the casino, Chen Qingzhou led the two of them directly into the backstage. Qin Ling had been here many times, but had never entered the backstage of the casino. The only difference between this place and the outside was except for the timely clock and the windows without curtains. All the staff have cold faces, completely different from the ones they serve outside.
When passing several familiar faces, they were too lazy to say hello to Qin Ling, a regular customer.
This actually surprised Qin Ling.
Entering Chen Qingzhou's room, the furnishings here are very boyish. There are all kinds of figurines and toys. However, the room is very neat and not messy at all. Especially one wall is filled with various commemorative playing cards that he collected. Or other props related to magic.
Li Huixi was placed on Chen Qingzhou's bed. Qin Ling had no experience in taking care of people, so Chen Qingzhou brought a pillow to give Li Huixi a more comfortable position.
Qin Ling then began to absorb the curse in Li Huixi's body. Half a minute later, Qin Ling's face began to look ugly, but there were already some signs of improvement on Li Huixi's side.
Qin Ling couldn't completely transfer the curse to herself, and she couldn't transfer it either.
This feeling was the first time for Qin Ling to experience it. With her physique, she had already experienced most of the curses in the world. This was the first time she felt such an uncomfortable curse like this.
The good news is that Li Huixi woke up. She straightened up with difficulty, her head was still dizzy, her stomach was churning, and she might vomit at any time.
But even if this state affected her thinking, she still chatted with her heart for a while:
"You've been poisoned."
"Nonsense, of course I know."
"This mission was specially sent to you by someone. I guess the poison is..."
"What if I become wooden..."
"Woodification? That's an idea, but the village has been burned down by you, and there is no medium left for you to obtain the curse."
"Where did you put the wooden man's fingers last time?"
"What wooden fingers."
"It's the one I broke off from the wooden man Duan Jiang.
"It seems like it's just at home."
"Let the fox... take it upstream and dip it in water to activate it, and then pass the curse on to me."
Li Huixi asked about Fox's whereabouts, but the three of them left in such a hurry that they had no time to contact Fox and Duan Jiang.
At the same time, Li Huixi's card rang, and it was a call from Xu Yingqiu:
"Are you two okay?"
Li Huixi frowned when she heard this first sentence and asked slightly questioningly:
"Your news comes too soon."
Xu Yingqiu did not explain, but asked another question:
"Duan Jiang...is he at your place?"
This time Li Huixi replied without any hesitation:
"He died. He died in the village."
There was silence on the other side of the phone, and both parties hung up the phone in unison.
Qin Ling's physical fitness was not as strong as Li Huixi's. She endured the same pain as Li Huixi and asked her:
"What's wrong?"
Li Huixi put down the card and said meaningfully:
"The Duan family is so powerful...can they actually steal Xu Yingqiu's identity?"
"Has our affair been discovered?"
"Um……"
Neither of them avoided Chen Qingzhou when they said this. It was obvious that both of them regarded Chen Qingzhou, who saved their lives, as one of their own.
"What do you think?"
"What happened today was such a coincidence."
"You feel?"
"Our actions are almost entirely at the mercy of others."
"You mean there are members of the Duan family among us?"
"Even if you don't work hard for them, you can at least have interests with them."
"Is it possible that we're just being watched?"
"I hope so."
After his voice ended again, Li Huixi asked Chen Qingzhou:
"Is it safe here?"
Chen Qingzhou nodded confidently and replied slowly:
"Don't worry, I checked carefully when I came back. There are no eyeliners."
At this time, Li Huixi breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second, there was a sound of unlocking at the door of Chen Qingzhou's room. This ominous sound made Qin Ling and Li Huixi tense up unconsciously.
But Chen Qingzhou made a gesture to reassure the two of them. The door was pushed open and a familiar guy walked in.
Xu Yingqiu.
At this time, Li Huixi concluded that the card phone call just now was definitely made by the Duan family who had stolen Xu Yingqiu's identity and made the call to set up a routine.
This was later confirmed when exchanging information with Xu Yingqiu.
"How did you come?"
Qin Ling, who was leaning by the window, was the first to ask.
Xu Yingqiu looked at the two people with a worried look. He was not only worried about the conditions of Li Huixi and Qin Ling, but also about his originally reliable image in Li Huixi.
Seeing that the two of them were fine, Xu Yingqiu exchanged glances with Chen Qingzhou, and then said:
"How do you think he found out you were in the trap?"
Qin Ling opened his eyes wide and asked in disbelief:
"Xiao Qian...is he yours?"
