"Go home?" Ergou suddenly stood up, as if he was suddenly inspired, and his golden vertical eyes flashed with a strange look, "Then you go back, I probably won't be able to go back."
"Huh?" Li Tian and Yun Zhi looked at each other, wondering why Ergou said that.
"What's wrong, second brother? You don't want to go with us?" Yun Zhi was the first to ask.
"not because of..."
Ergou said, and suddenly vomited a large mouthful of blood from his mouth. The blood spread all over the floor. Visible to the naked eye, the bright red blood was filled with the remains of internal organs.
The two were shocked.
"Two dogs!"
"Third brother!"
"Cough cough cough cough..." Ergou, who was fine just now, suddenly became sluggish and kept coughing.
"That old guy kicked me so hard that I might almost die..."
Only then did Li Tian realize that Ergou was not fine, but had been enduring his injuries. No wonder he was so depressed along the way.
No wonder, with the full force kick of such a powerful person as the Chief Manager, how could Ergou escape unscathed? It’s also his fault that he didn’t discover it earlier.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Li Tian looked at the dying Ergou with a sad face.
"I'm afraid that when you see me dying, you'll leave me and run away. I think I can save you a little more..." After Ergou said the last sentence, he couldn't hold himself steady anymore and fell down.
In a pool of blood.
"Hurry! Yunzhi, take it to the medical room quickly. Don't worry about me. Take good care of it and make sure to save it!"
Seeing that the two dogs were unconscious, Li Tian said anxiously.
Everyone died in this mission, and he couldn't let Ergou die too.
The situation was urgent, and Yun Zhi also understood the importance. Although he regretted not being able to accompany Li Tian home, the top priority was to rescue the two dogs, and he could not let the two dogs get into trouble.
"Okay, brother, please wait here, I will take the third brother to the infirmary."
Saying that, Yun Zhi quickly picked up the two dogs from the pool of blood and ran directly into the academy.
"Third brother, please don't sleep. We will be at the infirmary soon. Hold on!"
He looked at Ergou in his arms, who was gradually rolling his eyes, and said anxiously.
At this moment, he wished that Ergou would suddenly jump up and say that he was just pretending and just didn't want to accompany Li Tian home.
But he also knew this was impossible.
As time passed, he finally arrived at the door of the infirmary, but at this time, Ergou had already closed his eyes, and his long tongue was hanging out weakly, with blood still dripping from his tongue from time to time.
Li Tian had already sent a message to Yun Zhi, and immediately informed him of Ergou's latest situation.
Although he couldn't accompany them at the moment, he was still very worried about Ergou and could only pray for him silently in his heart.
Not long after, he heard a slight roar above his head.
He immediately looked up and saw something like a small boat flying in the sky.
"This is?" He was surprised. This was the first time he saw it.
The boat landed slowly and stopped directly not far from Li Tian. However, the boat did not land and was still suspended in the air.
At this time, a woman got off the boat. She looked like she was in her early twenties, wearing a set of casual clothes, with half-curly long hair reaching her waist. She looked like the big sister next door, with a faint smile on her face.
, making people feel like they are bathed in the spring breeze.
She walked straight to Li Tian, bent slightly, narrowed her peach blossom eyes, and said softly, "Young Master, I am the one who will escort you back this time. Please follow me on the flying boat."
"Flying boat? Is it that ship?" Li Tian asked curiously.
He has ridden on both two-wheeled and four-wheeled vehicles. This was the first time he saw this one without wheels.
"Yes, you are my son's friend, and my family knows that you are in a hurry, so we specially arranged a flying boat to take you back. The car will be bumpy all the way and it will take a lot of time." The woman explained patiently.
Li Tian nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Okay, then I'll trouble my sister."
With that said, he picked up Gou Wencai on the ground with difficulty and walked towards the flying boat.
"Little Master, let me help you."
Seeing Li Tian struggling, the woman hurriedly stepped forward to take Gou Wencai from his arms.
However, Li Tian did not accept her kindness and shook his head.
"Thank you, I can do it myself."
If Gou Wencai was still alive, he would have loved to have a woman hug him, but Gou Wencai was dead. Although he didn't think it mattered, most people were very taboo about death, and would avoid contact if possible, for fear of contaminating some bad luck.
.
Seeing this, the woman didn't say anything more, but quickly ran to the side of the flying boat and opened the door in advance.
Then she jumped on the flying boat. There was a green button on the side of the seat, and she pressed it.
A small bed slowly stretched out next to the seat. It was about forty to fifty centimeters wide and was just right for someone to lie down on.
"Young Master, just put him here, and then you can sit on the side."
With that said, the woman jumped into the driver's seat in front of her and made way for Li Tian.
Li Tian took advantage of the situation and walked onto the flying boat. The flying boat didn't look big from the outside, but the actual internal structure was quite empty and it didn't feel crowded at all.
He gently placed Gou Wencai in his arms on the small bed, and then sat on the seat beside him.
Seeing Li Tian sit down, the woman closed the door next to the flying boat.
"Young Master, if you have nothing else to do, then we will set off?"
After she sat down, she asked Li Tian, who was sitting behind her.
There was still a trace of sadness in Li Tian's eyes. He looked back in the direction of the college. Now it was only pitch black inside, with only a few dim street lights still on.
I don’t know how Ergou is doing. I hope I can see him alive and kicking when he comes back.
Then he turned his head, looked at the woman and replied, "It's okay, let's go."
The woman nodded.
"Okay, young master, where is your home address and the name of the place?"
"Wang Li Village, the King of Heavenly Kings, Mu Zi Li."
After hearing this, the woman entered the place name that Li Tianbao gave her into the instrument in front of her. Soon, a map pattern appeared on the instrument.
"Okay, it will take about five hours for the flying boat to arrive at full speed, which will be around six o'clock tomorrow morning. Young Master, you can take a nap first, and I will call you when we get there."
As she finished speaking, the flying boat slowly left the ground and flew into the air.
With a slight roar, the flying boat flew forward faster and faster, and before long, Lingtian Academy disappeared from Li Tian's sight.
Looking at the night view under the flying boat is a completely different feeling than sitting on a compass. Although it is late at night, the lights in Lingyun City are still bright. No matter where you go, you can see bright places on the ground.
Li Tian didn't feel sleepy at this time. He had already slept for a while on the way back, so he couldn't fall asleep at all.
He leaned on the soft seat behind him and looked out the window while listening to the soft music played on the flying boat.
The tranquility of this moment was in sharp contrast to the thrill of nightfall.
The air inside the flying boat was filled with a special fragrance, refreshing, and Li Tian knew that it was emanating from the woman in front.
It smells very good and makes people calm down unconsciously.
"Sister, I don't know what to call you yet."
Li Tian retracted his gaze from outside and turned to the woman in front of him.
At this moment, the woman had already taken out a book and started reading it quietly. It seemed that she was not going to rest at night.
"My name is Zhou Ye Ning, young master, you can just call me Ye Ning."
Seeing Li Tian talking to her, Zhou Yening immediately closed the book in her hand, turned to look at Li Tian and smiled softly.
"Young Master, are you thirsty? There is water and drinks in the drawer in front of you. You can take them out to drink. If you are hungry, there is also food in the drawer."
Zhou Yening's words couldn't help but make Li Tian feel warm in his heart.
When a person is extremely insecure in his heart, the kindness of others to him will be magnified tenfold and a hundredfold.
"Okay." Li Tian nodded politely, opened the drawer and took out a bottle of water, and took a few sips.
"You can tell me if you need anything, young master. When I came out, my family gave me instructions to help you solve all your needs, so please don't be polite to me."
Zhou Yening said again.
Originally, Li Tian felt that this trip was already troublesome enough, so he had the nerve to ask for anything more. Now he didn't need anything.
"No, I don't need anything, thank you."
Li Tian just shook his head and rejected Zhou Yening's kindness.
He turned his attention to Gou Wencai who was standing aside. When he saw a stain on his clothes, he raised his hand and patted it away, then straightened his clothes.
There was no trace of blood on Gou Wencai's face. His face was livid, and the scar on his neck was now purple-black, which looked a little oozing.
Zhou Yening just watched this scene quietly and couldn't help but sigh.
When she arrived, she already knew that Gou Wen was a dead man, and she also felt deep sympathy for Li Tian's experience.
"You must have a good relationship, right?"
Seeing the reluctance in Li Tian's eyes, Zhou Yening took the initiative to talk to Li Tian to distract him and save him from excessive sadness.
Li Tian chuckled lightly, looking at Gou Wencai with tender eyes. He recalled every detail of growing up with Gou Wencai, and they were all happy.
"He is my brother, my biological brother." He picked up Gou Wencai's cold hand and held it tightly.
Then he shook his head slightly and did not want to talk about Gou Wencai anymore. Let him have a good rest.
"Sister Ye Ning, tell me about this flying boat. I'm very curious about this."
He turned his head and looked at Zhou Yening again, smiling, but his hand was still holding Gou Wen tightly so he didn't let go.
"Okay." Zhou Yening pulled her long hair around her ears and said with a smile.
"This flying boat is actually just a very common thing, just because of it." She said, taking out a few talisman papers with special patterns from the drawer in front of her. The talisman papers were only about the size of a palm and were slightly yellow.
"This is a flying talisman, and it is also the power source of the flying boat. It was made by a talisman master. Such a talisman can allow the flying boat to fly for one day."
Looking at the talisman in Zhou Yening's hand, Li Tian looked full of curiosity. This already touched upon his blind spot of knowledge. This was the first time he heard the word talisman.
Perhaps seeing his curiosity, Zhou Yening continued with a smile.
"Young Master, do you know what a curse is?"
Curse? When he said this, he suddenly remembered that Hou Qingbai had mentioned this word when he gave him the little sword. Hou Qingbai called the little sword a sword curse. He didn't know if there was any connection between the two curses.
"I don't know, what is the curse?" he asked curiously.
Zhou Ye Ning put the talisman back into the drawer and immediately replied, "The talisman is an object that is practiced by practitioners. It has no spiritual intelligence but has a special function. The talisman can be a piece of paper or a sword.
It could be anything."
"This flying talisman was trained by a telepathic master. It has the ability to fly. It can not only be used on flying boats, but also on other things, such as tables and chairs."
After hearing the explanation, Li Tian understood it completely. To put it bluntly, the cursed object is something related to the practitioner, which is simple and clear.
"This must be quite expensive, right? I've been here for a while and I haven't seen anyone use it."
He carefully recalled the memories of this period of time, and indeed he had never seen anything like this flying boat wandering around here.
Zhou Yening smiled.
"Of course. The value of such a flying charm is about ten gold coins, and it is basically priceless. It is a consumable, so it is even more precious."
"But what you just said, the fact that you haven't seen a flying boat here is actually for another reason. To use a flying boat, you need permission from Lingyun City. There are only a handful of people in the entire Lingyun City who have the right to use flying boats.
Most of the families and forces are engaged in business, and the most famous representative is the extremely wealthy Chou family, who are the largest number of flying boat users in Lingyun City."
Li Tian's doubts were cleared and he nodded.
"So that's it, what does the Yun Zhi family do? They can actually use flying boats!"
Hearing this, the smile on Zhou Yening's face suddenly froze.
"Didn't my young master tell you?"
She originally thought that she must know something about the relationship between Li Tian and Ling Yunzhi, but it seemed that she was overthinking it.
"To be honest, he told me that he is from an ordinary family."
Li Tian's eyes became quite resentful. Only today did he realize that he really underestimated his second brother. He thought that the rich second generation had already overestimated him, but he never expected that he would be given such a big favor now.
a surprise.
Zhou Yening couldn't help but chuckled, but quickly returned to his original state.
"My young master is right. It is indeed an ordinary family, hehe."
Seeing her saying the same thing, Li Tian couldn't help but twitch his face.
This whole family of relationships are all liars.
"Sister Ye Ning, there are only two of us here. Tell me the truth. Is Yun Zhi related to Lingyun City? Does he have a sister named Ling Luotian?"
Li Tian, who had originally suspected that Yun Zhi might be related to Lingyun City, became even more suspicious now. Yun Zhi had hidden it well before and he couldn't find any reason to doubt it. Now the truth is coming to light.
"Forehead..."
Zhou Yening had a puzzled expression on her face. She didn't know what Li Tian's guess was based on, just because Ling Yunzhi also had the surname Ling? But there were a lot of people with the surname Ling in Lingyun City.
"Young Master, I know what you are thinking, but you are really wrong. Our Young Master has nothing to do with the Ling family in Lingyun City. I can guarantee you this, but if you want to ask me about his background, then
I really don’t have the right to tell you, I can only tell you this in person, I’m sorry.”
She apologized and did not tell Yun Zhi's life experience. As a servant, it was taboo to talk about the master's family. When she was found out later, she didn't know how she died.
Li Tian didn't make things difficult for her, so he stopped asking any more and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm just asking casually. Sister Ye Ning, don't worry."
As they chatted, Li Tian's heavy heart was slightly relieved and no longer as depressed as before.
And here at the college.
"Someone! Come quickly! Help!" Yun Zhi rushed into the college's infirmary anxiously and quickly looked for someone, but the two dogs in his arms had already stopped moving.
The doctor on duty tonight was taking a nap and woke up immediately when he heard Yun Zhi's shout.
He hurriedly left his lounge and ran outside.
When he saw Yun Zhi, who looked anxious, holding two dogs covered in blood in his arms, he hurried forward to greet them.
"What's going on here?"
"It's seriously injured, please save it quickly."
"Bring it here and let me take a look."
The doctor did not waste time in rescuing the patient and immediately asked Yun Zhi to take Ergou with him.
Soon the two came to a small room.
Yun Zhi followed the doctor's instructions and gently laid the two dogs flat on a small white bed, then stood aside.
At this time, the doctor walked up to the two dogs and put his hands on them, as if groping for something.
As Yun Zhi watched, he could only stand aside and worry, unable to help.
Not long after, the doctor withdrew his hand and frowned slightly.
"Alas~"
"Don't sigh. How is it? Please save it!"
Yun Zhi was so anxious that he really wanted to slap him twice in the mouth.
The doctor slowly shook his head.
"It's dead!"
Yun Zhi couldn't help clenching his hands, he didn't believe it.
"Impossible, it was fine just now, how could it be dead in just this short time! You must not have taken a good look at it! Look at it again. As long as it can be cured, I will give you whatever you want!"
What will he do if Ergou dies? He just promised Li Tian that he would take good care of it!
The doctor did not go back to see him because of Yunzhi's words.
He just shook his head again.
"It was hit hard, one side of its ribs was completely broken, and its internal organs were smashed to pieces. How could it survive?"
"What!!!" Yun Zhi looked shocked. He never expected that Ergou's injury would be so serious.
