Painter

Zuo Qizhi also came to participate, so the incident this time is not as simple as before.Zuo Qizhi's current status is not only the head of the family, but also an important minister under the emperor's seat.With him around, the power struggle between the families changed, and it was more inclined to confrontation between the monarch and his ministers.In a word, Zuo Qizhi is undercurrent, representing the authority of the emperor.

The Ming family set up a private weapons workshop and imprisoned a large number of painters. This crime was fulfilled in front of Zuo Qizhi.Although the emperor has always been fatuous and extravagant, he has already lost most of his prestige.But the king is the guide for the ministers, this is an eternal law, the Ming family first fell behind in name.

However, these issues were not what Bai Qian needed to consider.While Zuo Qizhi suppressed Si Qi and the others, the imprisoned painters escaped one after another.Jingxi's subordinates wanted to help, so they escaped smoothly.In the end, only the child that Si Qi brought over alone was left, and was brought by Jing Xi's men and handed over to Bai Qian.

The silent child never spoke, Bai Qian suspected that he was actually dumb at all.But the real problem is that if he doesn't speak, no one knows where his home is, so there is no way to send him back.

The left hand was tightly wrapped in gauze, from the arm to the belly of the finger.Bai Qian pricked his fingertips, and before he had time to bleed, he bumped into him with a force.

Bai Qian glanced sideways, seeing the child's frightened face, eyes widened, and he firmly grabbed his hand.Bai Qian thought for a while, raised his fingertips, and asked, "Are you afraid of this?"

The child didn't nod or shake his head, he just pulled Bai Qian's arm, but he withdrew himself to hide.Bai Qian looked at the other side and realized that he was afraid of this dagger.Bai Qian put away the dagger and said with a smile, "Aren't you a painter? You often draw knives and swords, why are you afraid?"

The child held Bai Qian's fingertips in his mouth, and sucked them hard.Bai Qian felt his fingertips go numb, and patted him on the head: "Little devil! What kind of habit is this!"

The child stopped his movements and tapped Baiqian's fingertips twice with his teeth.Bai Qian felt a little itchy, pulled out his hand, and pointed to the manuscript paper on the table: "May I draw a toy for you to play with?"

The child didn't understand what was painted, and blinked blankly.Bai Qian explained: "I have to pour blood on it to draw it. If you stop me, there will be no toys."

The child tilted his head, not knowing if he understood.When Bai Qian was about to explain in detail, he suddenly knelt down on the edge of the bed, leaned over and kissed the manuscript paper.

Then, a small truck the size of a palm appeared in front of him.

Bai Qian: "..."

The child jumped off the bed with the car in his arms, and ran away happily.Tian Shu came in by chance, followed the voice, glanced at the child, and asked what was wrong with Bai Qian.

Bai Qian shook his head and smiled wryly: "It feels...as if so much blood was shed for nothing."

Tian Shu pointed to the children playing in the corner: "What are you going to do?"

Bai Qian pondered for a moment: "I'll take it with me. This kid might be a genius, and, with him around, I probably won't have to bleed him in the future."

Tianshu was in a fog when he heard it.Bai Qian poured him a cup of tea and asked, "How is it?"

Holding the cup, Tianshu remembered the business, and gave a general overview of Jingxi and Li Yuan's situation.Bai Qian's eyes were dark, he lifted the quilt, and propped up his body to move bit by bit.

He was seriously ill, and there was not much flesh left in his body.His left hand also hurt tendons, and he couldn't use his strength at all. Only his right hand was still flexible in all four limbs.Tianshu looked worried and couldn't help but give him a hand.Bai Qian didn't refuse either, but smiled a little awkwardly.

Tianshu said with emotion: "I returned to the lotus wine and picked a smart maid for you."

Bai Qian paused, and said softly: "Wan Zhu is very kind to me, but..."

He just died in that fire.

Tianshu changed the subject: "Jingxi is next door, Ah Li is a little further away. Who are you going to see?"

Bai Qian let him push the wheelchair, and the next door was just around the corner when he went out.The door was not closed, Bai Qian saw Jing Xi lying on the bed through the gap.A doctor was hovering in front of his bed, he couldn't see clearly, as if he was changing the medicine.

Bai Qian said: "Don't bother him to change his medicine."

Tianshu pushed the wheelchair and continued walking, and said, "Okay. Speaking of which, Jingxi was seriously injured this time. The deeper the knife on the back, the entire spine would be cut off."

Bai Qian gasped, Tian Shu was still babbling: "I've never seen him so embarrassed, I was shocked. Jing Xi was named the 'No. [-] Warrior of Huai Yuan' by the emperor, you know?" ? Not kidding, he is really good at fighting, no one has ever hurt him like this. When Zuo Qizhi brought him back, I thought it was over, Jingxi had no heirs, who would take over... "

Bai Qian saw Jing Xi who was covered in blood again, his eyes were particularly bright against the background of blood stains, and there was also a hint of evil aura.

Feeling bad, full of depression.

Bai Qian took a long breath, but he couldn't dispel the stuffiness in his body at all.Tianshu couldn't read his face very well, while talking about how brave Jingxi was, and compared it with his current situation of being seriously injured and dying.Bai Qian didn't know what his intentions were, but these words really pierced into his heart.

It wasn't until entering Li Yuan's room that Tian Shu slapped his forehead and yelled at Li Yuan, "Ah! I forgot what you asked me to fetch! I'll go right away!"

Tian Shu left Bai Qian behind and ran away in a hurry.Bai Qian couldn't move the heavy wheelchair with one hand, so he had to stay where he was, keeping a distance from Li Yuan.

Li Yuan has been imprisoned underground and has not seen the sun for a long time. He still wears an eye mask to protect his eyes.When Bai Qian came in, he was drinking medicine, and when he heard the sound of the wooden wheel, he waved his hand to signal the maid feeding the medicine to step back first.Li Yuan turned his head in Bai Qian's direction, and asked softly, "Is it Bai Qian?"

The demeanor is luxurious, and the tone is calm and calm.He was not the simple and honest village man Bai Qian knew at all.

Li Yuan quickly poured down the bowl of medicine by the maid's hand, ignoring the dessert she fed, and said in Bai Qian's direction: "It's cold by the door, come in and talk."

The maid pushed Bai Qian to Li Yuan's bedside, closed the door, and left space for the two of them.

Bai Qian didn't know what to say, Li Yuan still asked softly, "Tian Shu said you were sick too? Are you feeling better?"

Bai Qian said in a muffled "En", and then added dryly: "It's much better."

Hearing that his voice was hoarse and the distance was far away, Li Yuan beckoned him to come closer.

Bai Qian raised his left hand, and then realized that he couldn't see, and said: "The left hand is injured, I can't move this wheelchair."

Li Yuan was curious: "What kind of transportation did you use?"

Bai Qian explained to him, Li Yuan stretched out his hand to feel for the wheelchair, but it was still a little far away, and the wound on his shoulder was pulled.

Bai Qian hurriedly leaned over to help him, Li Yuan smiled and said, "Feng Shui takes turns, this time it's your turn to help me."

As if remembering, Li Yuan's expression looked far away, as if separated by a layer of veil.Bai Qian also thought of the initial experience.He said in a muffled voice, "I didn't know you were still a senior undercover agent."

Li Yuan understood what he meant, and smiled a little guilty: "I'm sorry... for implicating you. Si Qi is watching me, I shouldn't take you back. I thought he would be two days later, enough You escaped, I didn't expect..."

Bai Qian shook his head: "If you hadn't saved me, I wouldn't be sitting here. Don't talk about it."

Li Yuan straightened his expression, he was a little weak from the serious injury and torture, but he always smiled like a spring breeze.Facing Bai Qian's direction, Li Yuan said solemnly: "Let's get to know each other again. My name is Yuan Li, a man of Dutch wine, 29 years old. I earn a living under Jing Xi's subordinates, and I can draw some clothes and weapons."

Bai Qian stared at him in a daze, and followed his words to explain himself: "Ning Baiqian, 26 years old—has also become a painter."

Yuan Li opened the corners of his mouth and smiled wider.Shi Tianshu crashed in panting, holding a big burden in his arms.There was still dirt on the top of the cloth, obviously it had just been dug out from somewhere.Yuan Li took the burden, fumbled to untie the cross clasp, and handed the contents to Bai Qian.

"Here, this is a meeting ceremony."

Bai Qian was stunned, mixed with surprise and joy, dazzled.Tian Shu on the side also gasped in shock.

Bai Qian murmured, "How did you get it..."

Yuan Li smiled and pointed at the blindfold: "I sacrificed it—but it was worth it."

What Yuan Li handed over was the prosthetic left leg that Bai Qian had been unable to find.Well kept, not even a little stain.

Under Yuanli's mask, there was a left eye wrapped in gauze, with blood oozing slightly.

"you……"

There was a murmur, with some emotion and gratitude, but also some melancholy, but he couldn't say anything else.
