At this time, Chu Tianshu had just returned to the racecourse.
The toxins in his body have been completely eliminated.
I have to say that the poison is indeed overbearing, and it is the most difficult poison Chu Tianshu has encountered so far.
The situation in the dining hall before leaving is still vivid in my mind, and I don’t know what the situation in the City Lord’s Mansion is now.
After finally opening up the situation in the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Tianshu didn't want to ruin it, so after the toxins in his body were eliminated, he hurried back to see what was going on in the City Lord's Mansion now.
However, he was not prepared to show up directly at the City Lord's Mansion, but wanted to investigate secretly first.
"Okay, you can go play by yourself first. I will come to you when I'm done."
Chu Tianshu stroked the mane on the back of Huahua's neck and said.
Ouch!
Huahua raised her head and responded, then swept into the wolf-dog like the wind, and left surrounded by the wolves.
"Quiet, don't make any noise, do you hear me?"
After another warning to the Phoenix on his shoulder, Chu Tianshu sneaked into the racecourse and felt towards the entrance and exit of the secret passage.
As for Que'er, Chu Tianshu temporarily placed her in a safe place outside the city. He didn't know what was going on in the City Lord's Mansion yet, so he didn't bring her back.
…
Jian Qingxuan was huddled in a corner of a passage, her chin resting on her knees, her eyes blank, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
A circle of candles as thick as an arm was lit around it.
At this time, only these candles could bring her a sense of warmth and security.
Thinking of her grandfather, Jian Qingxuan, who had just stopped crying, felt tears wet her eyes again.
There seemed to be some noise in the distance.
Jian Qingxuan was instantly shaken, and subconsciously tightened the giant sword talisman in his hand, staring intently at the depths of the passage.
The sound is getting closer and closer, it is the sound of footsteps.
After a while, Jian Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what sounded like Dou Chengfang's footsteps.
A moment later, she saw Dou Chengfang.
When Dou Chengfang saw Jian Qingxuan, she also had an expression of relief. She stroked her chest and said, "It's okay... It's okay if you're okay..."
Jian Qingxuan wiped her tears: "Sister Dou, what's wrong?"
"It's harmful, don't mention it."
Dou Chengfang stepped forward and sat down next to Jian Qingxuan: "I heard someone tell my senior brother that they discovered you. I was scared to death. I hurriedly came to see you."
Jian Qingxuan's expression changed: "Who is he?"
Dou Chengfang shook his head: "I don't know. I was in the house at the time. When I went out, my senior brother was gone. Maybe they got some false news. It's not that easy to find here."
Jian Qingxuan nodded, and his anxious heart calmed down a bit.
Dou Chengfang looked at the dark passage and asked, "Are you scared?"
Jian Qingxuan said: "Fortunately, no one will come here."
Seeing Jian Qingxuan's haggard look, Dou Chengfang suddenly felt pity in her heart. She put her arms around Jian Qingxuan's shoulders and said, "I'll stay with you for a little longer."
Although Zhan Pingyuan has always liked Jian Qingxuan, Dou Chengfang would occasionally regard Jian Qingxuan as his love rival, but Jian Qingxuan was warm-hearted and not scheming, and he had always treated her well.
What's more, Dou Chengfang knew that her senior brother Zhan Pingyuan had always been wishful thinking, and knew that Jian Qingxuan had no such intentions for her senior brother, so she had never resented Jian Qingxuan in her heart.
This is why she promised Jian Yun to take care of Jian Qingxuan before the palace master arrived, and kept it a secret from everyone.
Jian Qing sp;Although Jian Qingxuan was heartbroken, she did not lose her cool.
Hearing this, she shook her head and said, "Sister Dou, there is no need to stay here with me. If someone happens to come looking for you, your absence will arouse suspicion."
"That's true, then I'll go back first."
Dou Chengfang nodded and stood up from the ground.
At this time, the surrounding candlelight suddenly began to sway fiercely, and at the same time there were footsteps coming towards their location.
Jian Qingxuan's eyes instantly condensed, and she subconsciously pinched the giant sword talisman in her hand.
Dou Chengfang also pressed her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist, and shouted with a vigilant face: "Who is that person?"
Jian Qingxuan also looked wary.
Soon, a figure approached.
Dou Chengfang's vigilance disappeared and turned into surprise.
Because what was approaching was Zhan Pingyuan dressed in black.
A flash of surprise flashed in Dou Chengfang's eyes, the tip of the sword dropped, and he said in astonishment: "Senior brother?"
Seeing this, Jian Qingxuan quietly distanced herself from Dou Chengfang, and looked at Dou Chengfang with a bit more vigilance.
Noticing the changes in Jian Qingxuan, Dou Chengfang realized something, and his face instantly turned ugly. He stared at Zhan Pingyuan and said, "Are you following me?"
Zhan Pingyuan ignored Dou Chengfang. Seeing Jian Qingxuan's appearance, he felt heartbroken and said, "Qingxuan, how can you stay in a place like this?"
Following Dou Chengfang all the way here, he also saw what the secret passage was like. He could imagine how scared and helpless Jian Qingxuan must be hiding alone in the secret passage.
Jian Qingxuan did not speak, but took two steps back again, holding the giant sword talisman tightly in her hand. She kept thinking about her grandfather's instructions to her before he died and what Jian Yun said when he sent her down, not letting her believe it.
Anyone's words.
Zhan Pingyuan felt Jian Qingxuan's distrust of him, and said hurriedly: "Qingxuan, can't you even trust me?"
He said affectionately: "You know my feelings for you. Even if everyone in the world is hurting you, I will not hurt you."
Things have developed to this situation, and of course he will no longer suppress his feelings.
Hearing Zhan Pingyuan's words, Dou Chengfang became very angry.
She stood in front of Jian Qingxuan, stared at Zhan Pingyuan expressionlessly, and asked again in a deep voice: "Zhan Pingyuan, are you following me?"
Zhan Pingyuan frowned and said with an unhappy look: "Junior sister, how could you hide such an important thing from me? Will I still harm Qingxuan? Tell me, Qingxuan's safety will be better
A guarantee?”
Seeing that Zhan Pingyuan seemed to be really angry, Dou Chengfang felt flustered, and the anger disappeared in an instant, and he hurriedly explained: "I promised Manager Yun that before the second master comes back, no one will know the whereabouts of Qingxuan. I and Master
I didn’t even tell you.”
Zhan Pingyuan said coldly: "Can't you even trust me and Master?"
Dou Chengfang said: "It's not that I can't believe it, it's just that I promised Manager Yun, so I can't break my promise, right? Besides, when the second master comes back, I will take Qingxuan out."
Zhan Pingyuan didn't say much to Dou Chengfang and looked at Jian Qingxuan again.
Noticing the giant sword talisman tightly clutched in Jian Qingxuan's hand, Zhan Pingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and walked towards Jian Qingxuan.
"Don't come over here!"
Jian Qingxuan gave a sharp scolding and backed away again.
Zhan Pingyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Qingxuan, I won't hurt you."
Jian Qingxuan's eyes flashed: "Will you really help me?"
Zhan Pingyuan nodded hurriedly: "Of course, of course I will help you."
At this time, footsteps came from the depths of the secret passage again.
Moreover, listening to the movement, there is more than one person.
