The carriage was speeding along, and Qin Qi had been studying the luminous pearl in her hand. Yang Huang had closed his eyes and taken a nap for a while. When he woke up, he found that it was already dark.
He opened the curtains and looked outside. At this time, the carriage was driving in a seemingly desolate place.
This place where birds don't poop is so remote. Could it be that Qin Qi's home is in the frontier fortress?
"Brother Qin, where is your home? How long will it take for us to get there?"
It's not that Yang Huang thinks the journey is far away, anyway, he is now on his own and traveling around is just what he wants.
It's just that he is really hungry now, and the fight with Long Wanqian before was really draining his energy.
"Brother Yang, our Qinjiabao is still two days away from here. We will go to the inn in front to stay for one night. Don't worry, from now on, I will treat you as my brother. All your expenses will be taken care of.
Put it all on my account!"
Qin Qi had a satisfied smile on her face. He didn't expect to get the Night Pearl so smoothly this time. But this matter was really thanks to Yang Huang.
"Then I'd rather be respectful than obey."
Yang Huang smiled and nodded, thinking that this Qin Qi must have an ulterior secret. But now that someone is taking care of his food and accommodation, it might not be a bad thing.
The carriage drove for about an hour and arrived at an inn called "Yelai Inn".
"Sir, we've arrived at the inn." The servant said to Qin Qi respectfully.
"Well, you go and park the carriage and buy some dry food and wine. We have a long journey tomorrow." After Qin Qi gave the instructions, she and Yang Huang entered the inn.
Unexpectedly, this inn was really very lively, and people from all walks of life could be seen there. They were drinking, punching, and laughing loudly.
"Hey! Do you two guest officers work in the hotel or stay in the hotel?" The waiter hurriedly came over to greet them.
"Let's eat first and then stay in the hotel." Qin Qi took out a silver coin from her pocket as she spoke, handed it to the waiter, and continued: "Both the room and the food must be the best, do you understand?"
"Oh! That's so clear! You two distinguished guests, please invite me to the private room upstairs!" When the waiter saw the silver, his eyes lit up.
Yang Huang observed the surroundings. Although the guests here were very mixed, generally speaking, no one in the world wanted to cause trouble for themselves, so most of them stayed away from each other.
The waiter brought Qin Qi and Yang Huang into the private room, and then served a pot of daughter's red.
"Brother Yang, I really want to formally thank you for this matter about the Night Pearl." After saying that, Qin Qi poured a glass of wine for herself and Yang Huang, then picked up her own glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"It's okay, Brother Qin. It's fate that you and I met each other." Yang Huang smiled, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all.
"Brother Yang, you don't know. This night pearl is really important to me and my family."
Qin Qi looked at Yang Huang seriously, with gratitude in her eyes, sighed slightly, and continued: "Originally, this was a secret in our family, but after all, Brother Yang helped me get this night pearl, so
I might as well tell you."
He took a deep breath, took a sip of wine, and said slowly: "Actually, my family has always been burdened with a curse."
Yang Huang was stunned for a moment. He saw that Qin Qi's expression didn't look like she was lying, so he listened carefully.
"For generations, men in our family have never lived past the age of thirty. Only this Pearl of the East China Sea can break the curse of our family."
He pursed his lips, a hint of gloom appeared on his originally delicate face, and a helpless smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Brother Yang, to be honest, you not only saved my life, but also saved our entire family.
.”
Yang Huang was stunned for a moment. Although this East China Sea Night Pearl is a rare treasure, he has never heard that it can break any curse.
Moreover, where the Qinjiabao curse came from and how it was broken are all doubtful.
"Brother Qin, how old are you now?" Yang Huang suddenly remembered that Qin Qi said just now that no male in the Qin family would live past the age of thirty.
Qin Qi smiled and said softly: "Twenty-six years old."
Yang Huang nodded, took a sip of wine, and probably understood in his heart. If what Qin Qi said is true, then this night pearl is indeed life-saving for him.
"Then why do you Qin family people have such a curse?" Yang Huang asked.
Qin Qi looked hesitant and paused, "Because..."
Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by a loud fight downstairs.
"You waiter are really looking for death!" A girl in red clothes was grabbing the waiter by the collar and yelling: "Do you know who I am? How dare you lie to me about not having sex!"
This little girl looked very unruly, and the little maid on the side also said to the waiter: "She is the second lady of our Qinjiabao!"
When everyone heard the noise, they all looked in their direction.
Yang Huang was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, could this second young lady of the Qin Family Fort... be...
He subconsciously looked up at Qin Qi, who was sitting opposite him, and found that he was looking at the unruly girl with a bitter smile on his lips.
"Li'er, don't mess around." Qin Qi shouted to the little girl upstairs.
Qin Li raised her head, looking for the direction of the sound and saw Qin Qi, a big smile instantly appeared on her face.
"Brother, why are you here!"
After saying that, he let go of the waiter's collar and ran upstairs happily.
"Li'er, why are you acting up again?" Qin Qi asked Qin Li to sit down and persuaded her earnestly: "What did I tell you before, don't cause trouble outside? The world is too dangerous. You are from a girl's family.
, don’t always be so ostentatious.”
Yang Huang curled his lips and thought to himself, he didn't know who was at the auction before and insisted on competing with Long Qianwan. Looking at this unruly sister again, it is estimated that both brothers and sisters are
It's not a fuel-efficient lamp.
"Oh, brother, how many times have you said these words! My ears are about to get calluses!" Qin Li turned her eyes and saw Yang Huang, and asked directly: "Who is this?"
"Oh! I haven't introduced you yet. This is my close friend on the road, Yang Huang." Qin Qi and Qin Li introduced.
"Brother Yang, this is my little sister, Qin Li." He introduced to Yang Huang again.
Qin Li looked Yang Huang up and down, smiled, and said to Yang Huang: "Brother Yang, nice to meet you."
Yang Huang also smiled and said to Qin Li, "Nice to meet you."
