Chapter 56
Seeing Louqi coming in, the two of them tacitly stopped talking about the previous topic. They just looked at Louqi who handed the wooden box in his hand to Shen Yuqing and then stood aside to serve as a human background again. Yan Qin couldn't help but sigh slightly.
The wooden box is divided into two layers. The first layer contains cowhide needle bags, and the second layer contains various bottles and jars. As Shen Yuqing moves, a light and elegant smell mixed with the sweetness and bitterness of flowers and plants gradually diffuses. The fragrance of medicine is like clouds and mist, making people relax unconsciously.
"Mr. Yan, please take off your shirt. I need to use acupuncture to force the parasites out." Shen Yuqing said to Yan Fen with a needle bag in her hand.
Upon hearing this, Yan Qin's hands hidden in the quilt clenched slightly unconsciously. He drooped his eyelashes, making it difficult to discern his expression at this moment.
With delicate sounds, clothes were taken off piece by piece. In addition to the black marks that spread from the chest to the face, what attracted more attention were the scars on Yan Li's body.
There aren't many scars, but when compared to the pale pink new flesh that grew after the scabs fell off, you can see the sense of disharmony these scars bring.
It's like the abuser tried hard to erase the scars, but sometimes he couldn't control himself, or maybe he used a little too much force. The marks left behind cannot be erased even with the most expensive drugs, just like a broken mirror that can never be mended.
Feeling the two people's gazes on him, a hint of coldness flashed across Yan Li's face, but he quickly looked at the two of them frankly again.
He actually hoped to see different expressions on the two men's faces, but unfortunately, one of them was a kind-hearted doctor fiddling with the needles, while the other was standing aside like a wooden man, refusing to reveal any expression.
Shen Yuqing took out a thin green incense stick from the bottom of the wooden box, lit it with the help of the candlestick on the table, and soon a wisp of green smoke rose up. Shen Yuqing held the needle in his hand and placed it above the green incense stick, as if he was smoking it.
Yan Qin, who had been observing Shen Yuqing silently, suddenly felt sleepy. His head felt dizzy and the scene in front of him was a little blurry.
Yan Lin almost instantly locked onto the burning incense on the table, but the incense seemed extremely overbearing. He hesitated for a moment and did not hold his breath to break the scent immediately, but he was already powerless to resist.
He managed to hold up his body and not collapse, and suppressed his bitten tongue to use the pain to stimulate his instinct to wake up. He just stared at the two of them stubbornly with his calm eyes, as if he wanted an answer.
Shen Yuqing still had a smile on her face, as if she was not the one who put the incense.
"This type of plankton, in addition to making people stupid, will also release all its toxins to protect itself when it is forced out of the body, causing extreme pain to the host, causing it to become aggressive or engage in self-harming behavior."
"So Mr. Yan should just take a nap..."
Yan Qin could hardly hear Shen Yuqing's voice anymore. Looking at the other person's mouth opening and closing, he finally fell into the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.
The person in front of me collapsed powerlessly on the bed, his loose black hair barely covering his exposed skin. Even in his sleepy state, his brows were still slightly wrinkled, as if he was enduring pain.
Shen Yuqing looked at this slightly tortured scene and secretly lamented that she was like a...
“Pervert.”
Sometimes being too connected is not a good thing, just like when Lou Qi stared at Shen Yuqing in front of the bed and uttered two words slowly.
Shen Yuqing:......
Who on earth kidnapped this person to be used as a human guide!!! He turned his inn into a clinic!!!
Facing the roaring Shen Yuqing, Lou Qi, who had originally had an expressionless face, turned his gaze away silently, and it was visibly that he felt a little guilty.
The next afternoon.
Yan Li woke up from his sleep, sat up almost instantly and looked around vigilantly. After feeling that there was no danger, he relaxed his tense body.
The effect of the incense was stronger than he had imagined. At least he hadn't had such a comfortable sleep in a long time. As his body relaxed, he found that he was extremely sore.
This reminded him of the days when he first started learning martial arts as a child.
After putting on the neatly stacked clothes on the bedside, Yan Li walked out of the room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the abandoned man standing on the side.
Although the other party still had no expression, he still felt inexplicably relieved.
"Bosom insects will affect the behavior of their hosts. Ayu will not harm you."
After hearing what the other party said, the smile that Yan Qin had just revealed almost froze on his face, and his original sense of relief turned into helplessness. He really couldn't have any expectations of a double-standard person. It turned out that the other party was waiting at the door just to explain to the shopkeeper Shen.
Yan Feng chuckled and looked Lou Qi straight in the eye: "Could it be that in Brother Lou's eyes I am a person who cannot distinguish right from wrong?"
Lou Qi seemed to realize that his behavior was inappropriate. He said seriously, "I'm sorry, I talked too much."
In fact, Yan Qin was not angry. He himself could not be honest with others, so naturally he would not ask others to be honest. But at this moment, after looking at those black jade eyes full of apology, he began to avoid her gaze unnaturally, while secretly complaining about her in his heart.
Lou Qi usually looks cold, but in fact he often says surprising things. Now, facing the other party's sincere apology, Yan Qin somehow changed the subject in a few words and did not intend to continue discussing what had just happened with the sullen guy in front of him.
Yes.
After spending these days together, Yan Feng has secretly labeled Lou Qi as a stuffy person.
After changing the subject, Yan Feng walked down the stairs and happened to meet Li Fuchun who had just returned from here. After being warmly greeted by the other party, he sat down at the dining table in a daze.
"This is something the shopkeeper specifically ordered. Young Master Yan has just recovered from a serious illness, so he still needs to take some supplements."
"Thank you." Yan Li looked at the chestnut pork ribs soup in front of him and nodded slightly. After smelling the rich aroma of the soup, his stomach began to feel a little empty.
Yan Jin took a sip of the soup first, and his eyes lit up unconsciously after tasting the flavor. As early as yesterday when he ate the antique soup, he knew that the inn must have a good chef.
The bowl of soup was quickly finished. With such a considerate shopkeeper and a chef who could make delicious food, Yan Li really didn't want to leave so soon.
It was a pleasant afternoon and everything was just right. Yan Qin squinted his eyes and enjoyed the rare relaxing time. But after a while, a sudden loud noise disrupted the quiet moment.
He walked out in the direction of the sound and saw Louzai gesturing with a wooden board in the yard. Next to him was a doghouse that already had a kitten shape, and the little black dog that was as big as coal was patrolling its territory with great interest.
"I didn't expect Brother Lou to have such skills." Yan Fen observed for a while and then said.
"He has the most skillful hands."
Yan Fan looked over when he heard the sound and saw Shen Yuqing had walked up to the two of them with a big fish in his hand.
Seeing Yan Xian looking over, Shen Yuqing gently shook the big fish in his hand and said, "Let's have it for dinner."
But before Yan Li could respond, Shen Yuqing saw Lou Qi's hand movements in her peripheral vision and couldn't help but shout the other person's name.
"Abandoned!"
