Madame Demon has lost her memory

Fearing that it would be too humid overnight on the boat, the two of them took a bath and had some supper before disembarking and going back to the inn.

It was late at night, and Xiaoyue'er was waiting in the lobby of the inn with a double-layered food box. When she saw the two of them coming back, she hurriedly greeted them with a guilty face and said, "Teacher, Master... Xie Gongzi..."

Qin Lanzhi glanced at the little girl: "I asked you to follow me, what did you do?"

"Master forgive me..." Xiao Yue'er shook her shoulders, her eyes were red.After all, he is still a child. Although he has experienced more than his peers and is more precocious, he still has a childlike heart.At this time, Xiaoyue'er felt guilty and wronged, and secretly went to see Xie Yulan, her eyes were full of unspoken questions-will she be back soon?How can you leave me alone?Mr. Xie looks reliable, but in fact he is not reliable at all!

Xie Yulan complained in her heart, and quickly stopped Qin Lanzhi, and pushed the little girl back: "I'm not used to being followed, besides, it's rare for a child to come down the mountain to play, so let her play more."

Qin Lanzhi ignored him, and only asked Xiaoyue'er: "Are you still a child?"

Xiao Yueer hurriedly shook her head: "No!"

"Do you need me to find someone to take care of you?" Qin Lanzhi's voice was cold, sounding particularly unkind, "Or should I let Lao Qi take you to play? Let's talk when we have fun?"

Xiaoyue'er was really going to cry this time, fearing that the leader would drive her down the mountain, she hurriedly pushed away Xie Yulan who was standing in front of her: "No need! Xiaoyue'er doesn't want to play! Xiaoyue'er knows it's wrong! The leader calms down..."

As he spoke, there was a bit of crying in his voice, and he was choked up by the little girl again.

Xie Yulan frowned, it was rare for her to have some opinion of Qin Lanzhi.It's fine to treat people with a cold face on weekdays. Why are you so harsh on a child?It's not like Wanhe Palace can't afford to support such a little girl, so why does it have to be like this?

Xie Yulan's face darkened, she hugged Xiaoyue'er's shoulders, and reached out to lift the food box on the table: "That's enough, I left her and left without authorization, if you want to blame, blame me."

He took Xiaoyue'er upstairs, the pace was a bit fast, Xiaoyue'er looked back, saw that the leader did not stop, and then followed him upstairs.

At the door of the room, Xiaoyue'er sniffed and said, "Master, you can't do this next time, the leader will worry."

She paused, blushing again, half blaming and half wronged: "Xiao Yue'er will be worried too."

Xie Yulan gently tugged at Xiaoyue'er's hairband, and sighed: "You still speak for him. He's so fierce, aren't you angry?"

"The leader is for Xiaoyue'er's good." Xiaoyue'er raised her head, her deer-like eyes were watery, and the original blue pupils looked dark blue in the dim light, but they were still very agile, " Xiaoyue'er got separated from her family a few years ago and almost died among the fleeing crowd. It was the leader who took Xiaoyue'er back by mistake. Xiaoyue'er is very grateful to him."

At that time, Qin Lanzhi was still a young man, more energetic and rebellious than now, and his temperament was far more indifferent and unkind than now.

He retrieved Xiaoyue'er, and the first sentence he said was: "From now on, you have to rely on yourself."

He didn't raise Xiaoyue'er as a girl, but let the rough men of Wanhe Palace take her to practice martial arts to strengthen her body, and let the accountant teach her how to read and count.In troubled times, it is not a good thing to pamper a young lady.

There are not many women in Wanhe Palace, but those who can be called famous are not ordinary people.

This may sound too cruel, but Xiaoyue'er can understand and is more grateful.

"Xiaoyue'er has no family anymore, I'm the only one left in the world." Xiaoyue'er muttered in a low voice, "Although Wanhe Palace is my second home, the sixth and the seventh are brothers, and Huasan is a sister. But in the end, you have to rely on yourself in everything. If you rely too much on others, you will harm yourself. Besides..."

Xiaoyue'er clenched her little fist, and said seriously: "Xiaoyue'er doesn't want to rely on anyone, Xiaoyue'er wants to become stronger and be able to protect everyone in Wanhe Palace!"

Xie Yulan raised her eyebrows in surprise, and couldn't help pinching the little girl's soft cheeks.

Such a simple and easy-to-understand principle, even such a young child understands it, why doesn't he understand it?I missed so many years and wasted so much time in vain, and in the end I couldn't even avenge my family with my own hands.

Because he relies too much on the name "Xie's family", his parents and brothers.

Xie Yulan smiled wryly, and nodded: "Xiaoyue'er is really amazing, Xie feels ashamed."

At the corner of the stairs, Qin Lanzhi, who was walking towards this side, paused. Looking across the dim corridor, he saw the flash of pain on Xie Yulan's face.

Qin Lan couldn't help frowning, and waited for Xie Yulan to send Xiaoyue'er back to the room before stepping forward and asking, "What's wrong?"

Xie Yulan was startled: "What?"

"Why is your complexion so bad?" Qin Lanzhi raised his hand, as if he wanted to caress the man's face, but at a critical moment, he suddenly retracted, as if he just inadvertently patted the non-existent dust on the man's shoulder.

"It's okay." Xie Yulan was a little embarrassed, "I'm just sleepy."

Qin Lanzhi nodded noncommittally, and seemed to hesitate to speak, but in the end said nothing, bypassing Xie Yulan and walking towards her room.

The two rooms were adjacent to each other, Xie Yulan followed a few steps, and called out to each other in embarrassment: "That... Master Qin."

Qin Lanzhi tilted his head slightly, but didn't stop.

Xie Yulan stopped, seeing Qin Lanzhi walking further and further away, as if there was an invisible gap between the two: "I'm sorry just now... I was too rude. You taught Xiaoyue'er very well."

Qin Lanzhi's hand that pushed the door paused for a moment, and only gave a "hmm", then entered and closed the door, a small light was turned on in the room, and the surroundings returned to silence.

Downstairs there were still customers drinking, and the waiter was about to close up, and he was putting up the door panels in the courtyard to collect the lanterns.

Xie Yulan's eyes fell on a certain point in the distance, her expression sank, and her thoughts were complicated——

Earlier on the boat, he vaguely heard what Qin Lanzhi and his friends said.

Because he hid key clues, Qin Lanzhi's investigation speed was very slow, and he took the wrong route and made a big detour.

Normal people would think: How could a big family like the Xie family be wiped out suddenly?And there was no movement at all, and no clues were left.Nobody pays attention to the "relative" because that relative has an alibi.

No one would think that only one person can destroy Xie's family. This is simply a joke.

Most people will immediately locate the murderer on a group of people—they should have unified execution, strength, and careful planning and escape routes.

Therefore, Qin Lanzhi's first goal is to investigate those sects in the Jianghu that are not very famous but hide their strength.Whether it is white or underworld, he is investigating.

Now that the target is on "a group of people", it will naturally get farther and farther away from the truth.

Occasionally even Xie Yulan herself felt that Wanhe Palace was the most suspect, because this was the most reasonable and logical.

Xie Yulan rubbed her head hard, put her hands on the railing of the corridor, and fell into a deep self-loathing.

He pestered him endlessly, and asked Qin Lanzhi to help him investigate the case, in the name of justifying the name of Wanhe Palace—but he kept providing wrong clues.Even he himself didn't know how to go on this road.

Occasionally, he would even think that if this road had no end, he would be able to investigate with Qin Lanzhi all the time.They can travel mountains and rivers, eat delicious food from all over the world, and watch Xiaoyue'er grow up, which seems to be very good.

This self-deceiving dream was wrapped in honey, mixed with lies and escape from reality, because it was so beautiful, he gradually fell into it, unable to extricate himself.

But there is always a time when Meng wakes up. At that time, how will he deal with himself?

"Father...mother..." Xie Yulan closed her eyes, her nose was sore, her eye sockets were swollen, and she murmured in the silent corridor, like a cub who was at a loss, crying like a cry.

squeak-

Qin Lanzhi opened the door again.The light in the room spilled out, like stars falling all over the ground, although it was not clear, it still illuminated the dark road.

"Aren't you sleepy?" Qin Lanzhi said coldly, "Go back to sleep, I still have to be busy tomorrow."

Xie Yulan turned her head in a daze, the wet eyes and the red tip of her nose loomed at the junction of darkness and light: "Ah... good."

Qin Lanzhi frowned, his eyes fell on the smudged crimson color at the end of his eyes, and he closed the door with a "bang" in a moment.

A good night's dream.

After daybreak, time was turned upside down, and the memory in the dream was gradually blurred, leaving only a trace of heartbeat, hidden in the sound of waves swaying on the ship, and that point in the corridor of the inn leaking through the crack of the door. dark light.

One strand after another, winding around the atrium, gradually breathing became difficult.

"Huh—!" Xie Yulan opened his eyes suddenly, and his unfocused eyes fell on the top of the bed. It was only after a moment that he realized that the suffocating feeling was because the people around him almost pressed half of their bodies, making him breathless I'm out of breath.

The chaotic memory seemed to be stirred together by a big wooden stick, Xie Yulan rubbed her temples, and forcefully lifted the person who was pressing on her.

As soon as he moved, the man woke up immediately, before opening his eyes, he put his arms around Xie Yulan's waist, and kissed his ear tip habitually: "...Morning."

The hoarse, deep and intimate voice didn't match the cold voice in the dream, but Xie Yulan quickly put it behind her.He sat up and gathered the collar of his coat, like a big girl with yellow flowers being bullied, and widened his eyes and said: "Presumptuous! Who allowed you to sleep with me?"

Qin Lanzhi opened his eyes, first confirmed the identity of his daughter-in-law, and said, "Didn't you agree yesterday? I will help Mr. Tie enter the world of mortals. Since you want to enter the world of mortals, of course you have to eat and sleep together. You To feel the life of us mortals.”

Xie Yulan frowned, belatedly remembered this, and touched her chin: "Wait, we're not in the inn?"

"What inn?"

"There is a painting boat and an inn... It seems that someone is still dead." Xie Yulan said strangely, "You are still very fierce."

Qin Lanzhi: "..."

Qin Lanzhi sat up, her clothes were opened wide, revealing her strong chest muscles.Xie Yulan pointed at him and said, "Huh? Have I seen you somewhere?"

Qin Lanzhi suppressed his excitement, and guided him unhurriedly: "Maybe I saw it somewhere? Sir, think again?"

Xie Yulan raised her hand to support her chin, her eyes swept back and forth in front of Qin Lan's chest, Qin Lan's body was hot from being stared at, and she just woke up again, her spirit was stiff somewhere, and she suddenly felt a little distracted.

But now is not the time.

Qin Lanzhi pulled the quilt to cover it, and said patiently: "What is the painting like? How many floors are there? Are there red lanterns hanging?"

Xie Yulan was not sure: "Um..."

"Is there someone setting off fireworks on the shore?"

Xie Yulan didn't answer, and reached out to touch Qin Lanzhi's chest muscles. The muscles twitched slightly under the thin skin, as if giving a response.

Xie Yulan exclaimed, "It feels so good."

Qin Lanzhi: "..."

Qin Lanzhi took a deep breath: "Sir?"

"...It's fine if you can't remember it, you don't have to force it." Xie Yulan looked like a master, but her hands were very honest, and she didn't take her hands away from Qin Lanzhi's body. She squeezed and kneaded Qin Lanzhi from time to time. of."

Goosebumps appeared on Qin Lan's back, and the evil fire in his heart could not be suppressed. He almost gritted his teeth and said, "Have you touched enough? Get up and eat?"

"Oh." Xie Yulan nodded, then lowered her head and touched her own, as if it was very unpleasant, "I'm not as good as a mortal like you."

Qin Lanzhi closed her eyes and said "Calm down" in her heart dozens of times before maintaining a peaceful smile and getting out of bed to change clothes.

It's just the way he bowed slightly, which made Xie Yulan a little curious, and looked from his side: "What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"

"……No."

"Ah!" Seeing something, Xie Yulan stared at Qin Lanzhi, then slowly gave her thumbs up, "Mortal, you are really talented."

Qin Lanzhi: "..."
