To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 271 Familiar

"Humble staff guessed that the boy who jumped into the river might be Xiaoqi, so he jumped down to save others. At that time, the current was strong, and the boy disappeared in the blink of an eye. After swimming hundreds of feet to search for a long time, he found the boy who was washed up on a bank. The humble officer thought he was going to die, but he didn't expect to be breathing, so he made some arrangements and came to report."

  Luo Sheng was terrified.

   "Where is Xiao Qishang?"

   "Shoulders." Shi Huo stood with his hands down, and answered in detail, "It's a knife wound. The wound is deep. Although it is not fatal, it should have lost a lot of blood. In addition, the situation is a little worse—"

   Wei Han glanced at Shi Huo lightly.

   Said so detailed, is it to make Miss Luo worry?

  Shi Huo immediately stopped talking, out of curiosity, he couldn't help but secretly glanced at Luo Sheng from the corner of his eye.

  I heard the third brother mention Miss Luo a long time ago, and it is said that she is the master's sweetheart.

  He originally scoffed at this, after all, the third brother has never been reliable, if the fourth brother's words are somewhat credible.

  But today, it seems that the third brother has finally been reliable.

  Master really cares about Miss Luo.

   "Where is the person diving behind Xiao Qi?" Luo Sheng asked again.

  Shi Huo lowered his eyes and said: "At that time we scattered to find someone, and I was the only one there when Xiaoqi jumped into the river, and I didn't care about tracking that person."

  The area of ​​Jinshui River is not small, but the number of people who can be used to find people is limited after all.

  Although there are government soldiers in the Kaiyang Palace, if they really use a large number of government soldiers to search for people, it is not just ordinary people who are alarmed.

  Luo Sheng listened quietly, and touched the purse tied around his waist.

  In the purse is a small mahogany axe.

  Who is the person who jumped into the river following Xiao Qi?

  Xiaoqi suffered a knife wound on his shoulder, so it can be speculated that the person was an enemy rather than a friend.

  Luo Sheng looked solemnly at the closed door.

   Although Xiaoqi was still alive when he was discovered, but with blood loss and falling into the water, can he really be safe and sound?

   Someone is approaching.

   "Don't worry too much, Xiaoqi will be fine with the help of a genius doctor."

  Luo Sheng looked sideways at the man standing beside him.

   Wei Han said earnestly: "I checked, all these years, as long as the genius doctor agreed to take action, the patients survived."

  Luo Sheng nodded slightly.

  The two stood under the verandah outside the house. They stood there for an unknown amount of time, and finally waited until the door opened.

   "Miraculous doctor, how is Xiaoqi?"

  Looking at the people who surrounded him in an instant, Dr. Li said calmly: "He has lost a lot of blood. After that, give him more food that is easy to digest and can replenish blood, and change the medicine on time."

  Xiuyue breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Luo Sheng with a smile: "Girl, Xiao Qi is fine!"

   Miracle doctor Li looked at Xiuyue and frowned, and rarely said a few more words: "Don't worry, children are full of vitality, and serious injuries heal faster than adults."

  Xiuyue was taken aback by Dr. Li's sudden accusation.

   It is rumored that the miracle doctor who doesn't even give face to royal family and nobles like King Kaiyang and King Pingnan actually took the initiative to talk to a little cook like her?

   It is not flattering to be flattered, after all, she still has a bit of backbone as the maidservant of the princess, but the accident is real.

   "Thank you, the genius doctor." Xiuyue was surprised and hurriedly thanked her.

   Miracle doctor Li nodded: "I gave him an injection, he should be awake for a while, you can go in and have a look."

  Luo Sheng walked in with Xiuyue.

   Wei Han silently followed.

  Looking at the re-closed door, Doctor Li standing under the verandah stroked his beard, his eyes full of contempt.

  King Kaiyang really doesn’t regard himself as an outsider, this wooden stump. When he saw the girl surnamed Luo go in, he followed him.

  Young man—

   Miracle doctor Li thought of something, let out a soft sigh, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

  The layout in the room is simple, there is a low couch against the wall, and Xiao Qi is lying on it.

  Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, the dark-skinned young man looked pale at this time, looked weak and pitiful.

  Xiuyue wiped the corners of her eyes with distress, and called softly: "Xiaoqi—"

  The boy's eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.

   What came into view was Xiuyue's concerned face.

  The boy blinked, his eyes changed from dazed to sober: "Aunt?"

   "Xiao Qi, how do you feel?" Xiuyue held Xiao Qi's hand.

  The boy's hands were a little cold, which made Xiuyue feel even more sad.

   "Auntie, why are you crying?" Xiaoqi looked at Xiuyue with red eye circles, and grinned, "I'm fine. Auntie, I'm hungry—"

   Just as he was speaking, his expression twisted because of the wound.

  It still hurts, and I can't keep my eyes open, but he was injured often before, so it's not a big deal.

   Don't let my aunt worry.

  Xiao Qi was thinking about this, and suddenly found that Luo Sheng was also there.

  He looked at himself subconsciously, and he was relieved when he found that he was wearing clothes. He smiled shyly at Luo Sheng: "Boss."

   "How do you feel?" Luo Sheng asked calmly.

"fine-"

   "Tell the truth, so that the doctor can understand your situation."

   "It hurts a little, shoulder hurts, head hurts too, I can't seem to move my body..." Xiao Qi said and comforted Xiuyue, "Don't worry, Auntie, my previous injuries healed quickly, and I'm fine this time."

   "Xiao Qi, can you tell me what happened after you left the school?"

  Xiao Qi frowned and recalled.

Xu Shi was just sober, and his mind was a little confused. After a while, he said: "I went to the toilet a few times in the afternoon, and found that I didn't have enough toilet paper, so I asked my husband for leave and went back to the wine shop. Unexpectedly, not long after I left the private school, I was asked the way. Someone was hijacked. When I woke up again, I found that I was tied to a boat with something in my mouth and I couldn’t make a sound. Fortunately, I felt wrong when the man did something to me, so I hid the small carving knife I carried with me. In the palm of my hand..."

   Speaking of this, Xiao Qi chuckled: "Master, aunt, am I pretty smart?"

   Wei Han who was ignored: "..."

   "Our Xiaoqi is really smart." Xiuyue rubbed Xiaoqi's head, her tone was gentle, "What about after that?"

"I looked out from the gap in the tent cabin and found that it was dark. I thought I would be anxious if my elder brother didn't receive it, so I cut the rope binding my hands with a small carving knife. Then, I suddenly heard very light footsteps. With a loud sound, the curtain of the cabin was lifted, and a person came in..." Xiao Qi's expression clearly showed that he was trying his best to restrain his fear.

  Xiuyue patted his arm comfortingly: "Xiao Qi is not afraid, you are already safe."

Xiao Qi calmed down a little, and continued: "The man looked at me, then drew out his dagger and slashed at my neck. At that moment, I just cut the rope, so I tried my best to avoid it, and pushed him away while he was surprised. Get out. I could hear him chasing after me and just wanted to get away from this guy and ran into the water..."

   Just listening to it like this, you can hear the despair and fear of the young man at that time.

  Luo Sheng and Xiuyue looked at each other, unable to hide their guilt.

  Xiuyue comforted: "Xiaoqi, don't think so much, you should go to sleep first, it's all over."

  Xiao Qi nodded obediently, then suddenly opened her closed eyes, and said with some hesitation: "Master, aunt, the person who wants to kill me looks familiar to me..."

See you tomorrow.
