Southern Qi Fenghua Record

Chapter 80 Can't escape

Xia Houshu had already guessed that something must have happened later, otherwise Yingyue would not have entered the Qunfanghui and become someone else's pawn, let alone be reduced to this place of fireworks and sell her body and soul.But she still couldn't help asking, "What's the pity?"

"I got separated from them." Yingyue said unhurriedly, as if caught in that unbearable memory, "That winter was really too cold, it was freezing everywhere, and a large number of animals in the mountains froze to death. As a result, Uncle Yu didn’t bring a prey for a long time, and life became more and more difficult. Later, they decided to move to the city to live, saying that they were learning to do some medicine business, and they agreed to take me. I think I will have one A real home, no need to be homeless any more.”

"It snowed a lot that night, and it was like goose feathers flying around. We couldn't see the way ahead. We found an earth temple to rest, and a few men with knives came from behind. They stared at us as soon as they came. A few pieces of animal skins that I carried with me. Uncle Yu was cautious. He overheard them discussing privately about killing people to get the skins, and then led us to escape. Unexpectedly, those big men soon found out and chased after them. I accidentally fell down the hillside..."

So Yingyue became a member of Qunfanghui later.

Qunfanghui, like the dead men of Changqingmen, accommodated homeless orphans or vagrants.In such an environment, Yingyue must have suffered a lot that ordinary people could not bear if she was able to live until now.

Xia Houshu couldn't imagine how Yingyue survived.Just about to ask again, Yingyue got up and bowed to them, and said in a cold tone: "I have told you all you want to know, now, you can go."

Xia Houshu still had doubts, so naturally she wouldn't be dismissed so easily.She pointed to the peach blossom jade tablet on the table, and asked again: "Miss, do you know the secret behind this jade tablet?"

Yingyue was stunned: "If you know how, so what if you don't know?"

"Then I'll take it as if you know it." Xia Houshu didn't make trouble with her, "Since you know what it means, why did you give it to Yu Xiuyuan?"

Yingyue laughed, and she didn't say until she burst into tears, "I didn't give it to him, he took it from me."

Xia Houshu was stunned.It seems reasonable for Yu Xiuyuan to choose something that can be sold as a token for Sun Jiarou under the circumstances of poverty.

But he got it wrong again.

Yunxi was also very surprised, but she still didn't forget that she was playing Sun Jiarou, and immediately retorted: "Impossible! Yu Lang is not that kind of person!"

But Yingyue said: "You don't need to act anymore, I know who you are."

Both Xia Houshu and Yunxi looked astonished, but there seemed to be no explanation for this.The two exchanged glances with each other, looked at Yingyue warily, and guessed what she would say next.

Yingyue smiled, and said: "Actually, I noticed you the first day you stepped into Shuyu Pavilion. I asked Aunt Lu to stop you. I didn't expect you to be so persistent."

Her words made Xia Houshu feel a burst of frustration, her first reaction was that the people in Qunfanghui were really terrible.First Sister Baishao, and then Yingyue.They are all seemingly weak and humble women, but they have the ability to read people's hearts and remain calm and calm. You will never guess what secrets she hides, and you don't know how much love is in her every word and deed, every frown and smile. Part true, part false.It is not even known how much blood was stained on their hands.

Xia Houshu was puzzled and said: "Even if we are entangled, you can still choose to turn a blind eye, but why did you finally see us?"

Yingyue looked out of the window with a dazed gaze, and Fang said, "I can't hide."

Xia Houshu was confused by what she heard, she admitted that she had a bit of stalking ability, even if Yingyue still refused to see each other, she would find other ways.But Yingyue's tone and eyes when she said "can't hide", it seems that she is not talking about this matter at all.I always feel that there is nothing else she can't hide from besides her harassment.As for what it was, Xia Houshu couldn't tell for a while.

Ying Yue withdrew her gaze, glanced lightly at the two master and servant in front of her again, finally picked up the peach blossom jade tablet and held it in her hand, and said slowly: "You go, as if you have never been here before."

"As for the girl from the Sun family..." Yingyue said with a long sigh, "She is a good girl, she shouldn't have come here, so let's just treat her as our fault."

"You?" Xia Houshu immediately asked, "Are you referring to you and Yu Xiuyuan?"

Could it be that she really has an affair with Yu Xiuyuan?So what exactly is Sun Jiarou making such a fuss about?

Xia Houshu was confused and resentful, and felt worthless for Sun Jiarou.

Yingyue didn't answer, and even hid her eyes miserly in the shadows, she waved her hands and urged them over and over again: "Let's go, let's go quickly."

Even though Xia Houshu still had a lot of doubts in her heart, when she heard Yingyue issued the order to chase away the guests, she couldn't continue to ask questions, so she pulled Yunxi up to leave.

The master and servant came out of Shuyu Pavilion in a nervous mood, and met Ziyi Qi Nan and Tsing Yi's cold-faced god on the street at the entrance, and their destination was Shuyu Pavilion.Even though he changed his appearance and put on a fake beard, Xia Houshu subconsciously covered his face with his hands, and quickly pulled Yunxi aside, secretly praying that Qi Nan didn't recognize him.

When they passed each other, Qi Nan swept them intentionally or unintentionally.

It wasn't until they were far away that Xia Houshu stopped, turned around and looked back, but he didn't find that Qi Nan was following, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Yunxi also patted her chest with lingering fear, and Fang said: "I had a bad quarrel last time. I forgot to ask. The girl said that the one named Qi Nan owed you a favor. When did you owe it? I follow the girl every day." , I don’t even know.”

Xia Houshu felt that neither Qi Nan nor Leng Mian Shen was someone she could mess with, so she was obliged to warn Yunxi to prevent her from having any unrealistic fantasies.She thought for a while and said, "Do you still remember the last time I was injured in Huguo Temple?"

"The memory is still fresh!" Yunxi nodded fiercely, and said while gesturing with her hands, "It's such a big hole, and it's bleeding a lot!" She paused, and immediately realized, "You mean... You were hurt because of him?"

"En." Xia Houshu nodded.

"But..." Yunxi was confused again, "You said that you met a bad person. Could it be that he scratched you?...This is not allowed! We have to avoid him in the future! Or, we should tell the Duke Lord! Let the Duke find out his identity... It would be great if the second son was in the capital!"

When the incident first happened, Xia Houshu didn't even think about telling her elders, but now that it's been so long, she doesn't want her parents to know.And when asked, how did she explain what happened that night?Xia Houyi knew about this, but he is sleeping in Xiangshan now, and the distant water can't relieve the near thirst.

"Water-"

Suddenly, a cry came from nowhere, breaking the silence between their master and servant.Xia Houshu stared around instinctively, and saw thick smoke billowing from the magnificent Shuyu Pavilion in the past, and the flames looked like a ferocious and terrifying beast, looking at the panic-stricken humans, smiling ruthlessly.

The fire spread from the back kitchen and the second floor of Shuyu Pavilion. The raging flames waved its minions arrogantly, bringing thick smoke and scorching heat, mixed with wanton whistling sounds, and suffocating gas rushing rapidly. The sound of burning "sizzling" scurry around with the wind, devouring everything recklessly.For a while, there were cries, shouts, explosions, and shouts for firefighting...all the noisy sounds were distorted in the fire, and people's tension and fear were infinitely magnified.Like purgatory on earth.

How could it suddenly catch fire?

Xia Houshu's first thought was that Yingyue was still inside, and her room happened to be on the second floor!

Although she had only met Yingyue twice, after hearing about Yingyue's life experience just now, she felt that Yingyue was just a poor person, so she fell back in disbelief.

Yunxi, who had already been stupefied by the sudden fire, came to her senses, and hurried to catch up with Xia Houshu, and said loudly, "Girl, what do you want to do?"

"Yingyue is still inside!" Xia Houshu explained, "We have to save her!"

Hearing this, Yunxi grabbed Xia Houshu even harder, and persuaded him, "I know you want to save Yingyue girl, but the fire is so big that everyone inside is fleeing, we can't save her!"

Xia Houshu was stunned for a moment, and when he looked at Shuyu Pavilion again, he saw that the entire Shuyu Pavilion was surrounded by fire, and nearby neighbors and passers-by poured water on the gate of Shuyu Pavilion with various containers. Hope to leave a life door for the people inside.

As Yunxi said, the fire is too big, she can't save Yingyue!

When Xia Houshu realized that she was powerless, her reason suddenly returned to her body.She looked around, and Qin Nan and Leng Mian Shen who were about to go to Shuyu Pavilion just now had already disappeared in the crowd, she wondered if they went in in the end.At the same time, another question came to her mind, that is why Shuyu Pavilion suddenly caught fire, and the fire was almost imminent.

Xia Houshu quickly grabbed Yunxi with his backhand, turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Shuyu Pavilion.After walking a few steps, I heard a loud "bang" from behind, as if something fell from a high altitude and hit the ground in an instant.

With a tragic scream from the crowd fighting the fire, Xia Houshu stopped again.She thought that the beams on the gate should have been broken by the fire and fell to scare people, but when she turned her head, she saw a person in light blue clothes lying on the stone road a few steps away from her. The bright red liquid flowed out of her body lightly, and spread to the surroundings, like a slowly blooming manjusawa flower, or like a newly dyed silk satin.A pair of good-looking eyes stared blankly in a certain direction, unable to see whether it was hope, despair, or something else.And she tightly held a white jade plaque in her hand.Her appearance could still be vaguely recognized on the blood-stained face.

It's the full moon!

Falling from such a high place, is it for survival or for death?

Why did Shuyu Pavilion suddenly catch fire?

Is all this a coincidence, or was it done on purpose?What is the purpose?

Xia Houshu felt something exploding in her head, screamed inwardly, and hurriedly dragged Yunxi to run out of the crowd that was gradually gathering around—she had to leave this place of right and wrong quickly.
