Volume Two: The Case of the Red Lotus in the Ancient Temple Chapter 47: Leaving
When Duan Ming woke up, he was lying in a quiet side room.
Xu Ruoyun was standing by the window at the moment. When he saw Duan Ming waking up, he stood up hurriedly.
"Water, cough..." Duan Ming finally understood why those who had been comatose for a long time wanted to drink water first thing after waking up.
This burning pain that feels like it's on fire from the lungs to the throat to the mouth is really hard to accept.
"Okay, okay!" Xu Ruoyun stood up quickly and poured a small glass of water for Duan Ming.
However, Xu Ruoyun did not dare to drink it directly to Duan Ming. In the past, they had often seen people who drank large amounts of water under such circumstances and ended up choking to death.
So Xu Ruoyun found a washed handkerchief that had been prepared a long time ago, poured water on the handkerchief, and put it at the corner of Duan Ming's mouth.
Duan Ming only felt a coolness coming from his lips, and he sucked greedily. This coolness seemed to relieve his severe pain to a great extent.
Finally, after a short while, Duan Ming slowly opened his eyes.
"Great, great!" Xu Ruoyun breathed a sigh of relief, ran to the door, opened the door and shouted: "Mr. Duan is awake!"
Xu Ruoyun then ran back to the bed and carefully helped Duan Ming up.
"Mr. Duan, I'm sorry, it's all because of my poor protection..." Xu Ruoyun said with great guilt. It was obvious that he had been guarding outside Duan Ming's room, but in the end, the fire started...
"It's okay." Duan Ming shook his head gently. He knew this and couldn't blame Xu Ruoyun.
Then Duan Ming looked around: "How long have I been unconscious?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Duan, it won't take long, about six hours." Xu Ruoyun said.
"Yes." Duan Ming nodded slightly, moved his body, and felt that his body had recovered a little, but his lungs were still burning, probably caused by the smoke.
"Who saved me?" Duan Ming asked again.
"It's Senior Meng!" Xu Ruoyun said hurriedly: "Mr. Duan, you don't know that Princess Mingzhu is in the Brahma Temple right now! At that time, Princess Mingzhu brought Senior Meng here and heard that you were still in the fire scene. Senior Meng
Without hesitation, I put on a wet cloak, rushed into the fire, and rescued you."
"Yeah." Duan Ming nodded again.
At this moment, Xing Qianqiu walked in quickly, and Li Waner and Senior Meng followed behind him.
"Mr. Duan, are you feeling better? Are you feeling any discomfort?" Xing Qianqiu asked hurriedly and with concern.
"It's okay." Duan Ming glanced at Xing Qianqiu complicatedly, then stood up and bowed deeply to Li Waner and Senior Meng: "Boy Duan Ming, thank you Princess Princess and Senior Meng for saving your life! I have offended many people before.
, please forgive me."
"Mr. Duan, there is no need to be so polite." Li Waner waved her hands hurriedly: "Uncle Meng was so anxious that he almost hurt your life, and he has always felt guilty. Now he has made up for it."
"No, no, hurting someone is an unintentional mistake, but saving someone in a fire scene is a gift of renewal. How can we compare it with each other?" Duan Ming shook his head: "I will remember this kindness. If the princess and Senior Meng have to do anything in the future, I will do it myself."
We must go all out to repay the life-saving grace of the two of you."
"This..." Li Waner glanced at Xing Qianqiu, and then sighed: "Okay, if Mr. Duan needs anything in the future, just come to Waner."
"Thank you, Princess!" Duan Ming thanked him again.
Afterwards, Li Waner left with Senior Meng, leaving only Duan Ming, Xing Qianqiu and Xu Ruoyun in the room.
"Mr. Duan, have you noticed anything?" Xing Qianqiu gently helped Duan Ming sit down, and then asked in a deep voice.
"No, I was sleeping at the time. When I woke up, the fire in the room was out of control." Duan Ming shook his head: "What about you? What was the result?"
"Fakong is dead." Xing Qianqiu gritted his teeth: "We found his body outside the town at the foot of the mountain. He was strangled to death with a thin string, leaving no trace."
"... Cruel enough!" Duan Ming pondered for a long time and then lowered his head and said.
There is no doubt that this matter must have been done by the Immortality Cult, but it was too cruel.
Pure Fa, Ming Li, Fa Kong... As long as they find out who they are, the other side will kill them without giving them any chance!
"Commander Xing." Duan Ming gritted his teeth, looked up at Xing Qianqiu, and said in a deep voice, "I want to go back to Linyang."
"Mr. Duan, this is not allowed!" Xu Ruoyun on the side heard this and said hurriedly: "This is my subordinate's dereliction of duty, but I promise that I will never let you be in danger again. We can't do without you here!"
Duan Ming did not speak, but looked at Xu Ruoyun quietly.
"..." Xing Qianqiu took a deep look at Duan Ming. He understood Duan Ming's concerns and even more understood that Duan Ming was afraid.
You know, this time is even more dangerous and terrifying than the time when Mirror Division was attacked.
If it is explained that the time when Mirror Division was attacked, he was in a side hospital and neglected to take precautions, then what about this time?
This is next to my own wing under all layers of security!
Anyone who has experienced something like this will definitely feel extremely uneasy.
Especially Xing Qianqiu understood that what Duan Ming feared most was death, and this time Duan Ming almost died!
After pondering for a moment, Xing Qianqiu nodded: "Mr. Duan is resting for the night. I will send someone to take you back tomorrow."
"No, I'm leaving now!" Duan Ming breathed a sigh of relief and said.
"...Okay!" Xing Qianqiu gritted his teeth and nodded, then looked at Xu Ruoyun aside: "Xu Ruoyun."
"Here." Xu Ruoyun hurriedly clasped her fists.
"You go and prepare the horse, and you and five people will escort Mr. Duan away." Xing Qianqiu said solemnly: "We will definitely send him to Linyang City safely. If there is one less hair on the road, I will take it from you."
ask!"
"Yes!" Xu Ruoyun then left quickly to make preparations.
"Commander Xing..." Duan Ming said solemnly.
"You should call me Lao Xing." Xing Qianqiu shook his head.
Ming's name for him keeps changing during this period, and every change represents a change in the relationship between the two.
"...Old Xing, I will tell you what I have found recently!" Duan Ming said solemnly: "I believe that with your wisdom, you can definitely solve this case!"
"Yeah." Xing Qianqiu nodded.
Soon Xu Ruoyun was ready, and then Duan Ming went to the south courtyard again, thanked Li Waner and Senior Meng again, and then left with Xu Ruoyun and others.
After Duan Ming and others disappeared on the mountain road, Xing Qianqiu returned to the North Courtyard with a gloomy face.
"Check!" Xing Qianqiu looked at Xu Shizhong beside him: "Don't let anyone go. I want to see how this fire started!"
"Yes!" Xu Shizhong nodded vigorously.
The fire in the wing room has been extinguished long ago, but the fire in the hearts of all the officers of the Mirror Division has burned even brighter!
