After two short and one long knocks on the door, Liu Chengfeng sneaked in with a big bag of things.
He spent all the silver bills he had and went to great lengths to find all the herbs and things that the foreigner needed, and then he hurried back.
When he saw Princess Pingyang tied up and lying unconscious beside him, he was stunned for a moment, looked at Qin Shuo and said, "Brother Qin is amazing, he actually brought her back."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Qin Shuo's face seemed not right, and he looked extremely ugly.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
He put down what he was holding and asked in a low voice.
Qin Shuo glanced at him, his heart heavy, and he didn't want to say a word.
Liu Chengfeng paused, then hurriedly handed the things he had brought back to the ghost man, and said in a very flattering manner, "Sir, everything is ready, please take a look."
The ghost man was quite satisfied with his attitude. He stretched out his withered hand and roughly examined it, then nodded. "Did anyone discover your whereabouts when you came back?"
"Don't worry, Master Ghost, there is absolutely no such thing. I have been walking in alleys all the way, and no one has noticed my whereabouts."
Liu Chengfeng said hurriedly.
After he finished speaking, seeing the ghost nod in satisfaction, Liu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Master, then my antidote..."
Calculating the time, it was almost time for the attack. Liu Chengfeng became extremely frightened whenever he thought about the poisonous insect in his body.
The ghost raised his eyes, his dark eyes fell on Liu Chengfeng, and then slowly scanned Qin Shuo's body, and then said, "Antidote? I can give it to you..."
As soon as the words fell, Liu Chengfeng was filled with joy and excitement, "Thank you, Mr. Gui, thank you very much, Mr. Gui."
Qin Shuo also raised his eyes.
But the next moment, the ghost man said, "Don't rush to thank me. I haven't finished speaking yet. If you want the antidote, then answer me a question: where did you go after leaving the courtyard? Who injured you?"
The foreigner's voice was gloomy. Liu Chengfeng and Qin Shuo were both stunned. Then cold sweat fell on their foreheads. There was only one thought in their minds: he knew!
Qin Shuo and Liu Chengfeng both had bruises on their faces that could not be concealed, obviously they were beaten by a group of people, so where did they go?
"There is an antidote, but unfortunately there is only one. Can you two decide which one to give it to?"
The foreigner spoke again, and as soon as he finished speaking, Liu Chengfeng and Qin Shuo both breathed heavily.
The foreigners are deliberately trying to sow discord.
"Master, what do you mean? Brother Qin and I were doing what you ordered. We just had a small conflict with someone, which didn't affect our work at all. We have also completed the mission exactly as you instructed. How come you only have one antidote?"
Liu Chengfeng spoke dryly.
Just as he finished speaking, he heard an anxious voice behind him, "It was him. He was the one who begged me to take him to the Qing residence to find Princess Yu. He said he heard Princess Yu was an outstanding doctor and would definitely be able to cure the poisonous insects in their bodies. I couldn't persuade him, so I took him to the Qing residence. In the end, he didn't see her and was beaten up by the Second Young Master of the Qing family!"
Qin Shuo stood up at some point and shouted loudly.
Liu Chengfeng was completely stunned. He looked at Qin Shuo in disbelief, as if he hadn't expected him to say that. When he realized what he had said, he flew into a rage, "Bullshit, Qin Shuo, you're talking nonsense! It was you, you who said you were going to find Qin Wan, saying she was your sister and could cure the world's most powerful poison. She cured Princess Yu's leg and the poison. Let's go find her, she can save us, and then tell us the location of the ghost man, and we'll have done a great deed!"
Liu Chengfeng angrily said, "I never intended to betray Qin Shuo. After all, they were good brothers, having spent so much time together, so I argued with the foreigner. But who could have thought that Qin Shuo would frame him the next day? What would be his fate? Only death!"
Qin Shuo was really frightened by the Gui Lao and Qing Yunyao's vicious skin-changing plan, so when he heard that Gui Lao suspected them, he immediately turned around and bit back, because it was he who suggested going to Qing's house to find Qin Wan, so Gui Lao would kill him.
Hearing Liu Chengfeng's rebuttal, cold sweat broke out on his forehead and he immediately retorted,
"Liu Chengfeng, you're talking nonsense. Everyone in Kyoto knows that I have a bad relationship with Qin Wan. How could I possibly go to her? If you hadn't begged me and threatened me, how could I have gone? Besides, I brought Princess Pingyang back at 10 noon, but you were out for the whole day. Where were you? Did you betray us?"
Qin Shuo rushed forward and started wrestling with Liu Chengfeng.
Liu Chengfeng is like a dumb person eating bitter herbs, unable to speak.
"You framed me, you framed me on purpose. I didn't come back because I went to the black market in South City to get these things, especially the trouble. I didn't betray Master Gui Lao at all."
Liu Chengfeng argued loudly.
Qing Yunyao looked at the two people fighting each other sarcastically and laughed disdainfully.
Pingyang came over during the noise and found herself tied up. She leaned weakly against the pillar, the back of her head was throbbing with pain, and she could smell blood in her nose. She remembered that it was Qing Yunyao who grabbed her hair and slammed her to the ground, causing her to faint.
She opened her eyes with great effort, saw Liu Chengfeng's appearance clearly, and remembered his identity: the young master of the Liu family to whom Qin Ningyue had recently been arranged to be married, and his fiancé.
"I hate being betrayed the most."
The next moment, the ghost man's sinister voice rang out, and then he suddenly raised his hand. A burst of energy whistled out, and Liu Chengfeng and Qin Shuo were immediately thrown to the ground. The ghost man looked at Qin Ningyue and said, "Qin girl, these two people, one is your brother, and the other is your fiancé. Whichever one you trust, you can spare his life, and kill the remaining one."
With a clang, a dagger flashing with cold light was thrown directly in front of her.
Qin Ningyue's face turned pale instantly. She realized that the foreigner was forcing her to kill someone and was also watching her attitude.
Qin Ningyue reached out her trembling hand and picked up the dagger from the ground.
Qin Shuo and Liu Chengfeng both looked up at Qin Ningyue.
Liu Chengfeng's face was pale and his eyes were dead. He knew he couldn't escape. Qin Ningyue would definitely kill him. After all, he had done such an excessive thing to her, and Qin Shuo was her younger brother. She would definitely not kill her own brother.
Obviously, Qin Shuo thought the same thing. Although he was also afraid, he was not as disheartened as Liu Chengfeng. He just kept urging him impatiently, "Qin Ningyue, hurry up."
Liu Chengfeng gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. He didn't want to die, but he had to.
For some reason, he still felt a little scared and sad. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Qin Ningyue, "Miss Qin, I'm really sorry for you that night, but honestly, I don't regret it. Dying in your hands today can be considered as an apology to you."
