(1/2)
At this moment, I suddenly realized-
Oh no!
Because, just as he said that, I suddenly felt a chaotic disorder coming from the bottom of my heart. The fist that was originally clenched tightly, suddenly felt weak, and even my fingers were a little out of control.
But, just before I noticed something strange, Li'er, who had been standing next to Pei Yuanfeng, had already fallen down with a plop.
"Li'er!"
I immediately wanted to run over to protect her, but after I moved, the leg I stepped out seemed to be not my own. It suddenly softened and immediately knelt on the ground with a plop.
I raised my head in panic. Seeing Pei Yuanxiu's brows frowned, I seemed to feel something. I was about to reach out to pull Li'er, but my feet staggered. His hand hurriedly supported the ground, supporting his body that was exhausted.
He could still hold on, but the people around him had already fallen down one by one.
"What's going on?"
"I--"
"Um!"
Everyone was extremely shocked, but everyone almost had time to finish a sentence, and they all lost the power to resist, and even the strength to speak.
When I finally couldn't hold on to the ground, I was still a little dazed, because my forehead hit the hard ground, and my eyes turned black. I saw Pei Yuanxiu's face pale and wanted to move towards me, but I was still unable to move anymore. I only stretched out with one hand to me: "Qingying..."
His voice seemed to come from a distance, and it seemed to be right in his ears, as if there was something invisible across it.
I lay on the ground, and after a while, I couldn't come back to my senses. I only watched the people in the Xitang fall to the ground one by one. Only Wen Fengxi and the others who practice martial arts could barely hold on. When Liu Qinghan fell down, he even reached out to grab his arm, but was dragged down by this and fell down.
Wu Yanqiu...Du Yan...The guards in the Xi Hall...
Finally, Pei Yuanfeng was still standing.
But his condition was not good either. His face was pale without a trace of blood. He held a sword in his hand and barely supported his shaking body. His eyes were raised up and he stared at Yan Qinghan fiercely.
Yan Qinghan always looked at everything that happened in the Xitang with a faint smile, and only laughed when he met Pei Yuanfeng's fierce look.
Then, he lowered his head and blew out the candlelight he protected in his palm.
As soon as the flames were extinguished, a pillar of blue smoke immediately rose, as if it was evaporated from his palm, stretching slowly in the air, and then dissipated in the air by the wind.
After a moment of chaos, I immediately understood.
It's that pair of candles!
Those two candles that have been burning!
I stared at him with wide eyes, looking at the handkerchief that he had never left his hands, and gently covered his lips, and immediately understood everything.
But now I understand that it is too late to come here. Almost all the people in the lobby have been given medicine. A few of them who are slightly weak have completely fainted. The situation is not optimistic. All of them are weak and their limbs are constantly twitching and trembling due to the medicine.
I myself can't even move my fingers.
A giggle in his throat, but he couldn't say a word. Yan Qinghan turned around with a smile, looked at the scene in the Xitang with a hint of satisfaction, and then slowly walked out. When he walked past me, a gust of wind blew over the corner of the plain white clothes, blew across my face. I coughed suddenly and finally could make a sound.
"Light-you-"
He didn't even look back, but walked to Pei Yuanfeng who was already stumbling and unable to hold on, and smiled and shook his head: "Why do you have to persist so much?"
Pei Yuanfeng looked up at him, his eyes almost harshed with poison: "You—"
Before he finished speaking, Yan Qinghan raised his arm and slashed at the back of his neck.
My eyes widened in shock.
I never thought that the weak Yan Qinghan would move so quickly, just like a white lightning, leaving only a shadow, and heard Pei Yuanfeng let out a painful groan, and he immediately fell to the ground.
"Yuanfeng!"
I shouted softly, but saw that although Pei Yuanfeng fell down by him, he did not faint immediately. He was just terrible pale, but his eyes were still open and he looked at Yan Qinghan with redness.
Yan Qinghan also looked at her hand wrapped in thick bandages, shook her head, as if she was a little regretful, and a little helpless, and sighed softly.
Then, he lowered his head and looked at Pei Yuanfeng who was still twitching and struggling on the ground. He slowly squatted down and picked up the bloody sword that landed at his hand.
My heart suddenly raised to my throat!
"Yan Qinghan——"
"Senior brother,"
While I spoke, another cold voice that seemed a little weak and cold sounded from the side. When I turned around, it was Liu Qinghan. He lay on the ground with weakness, and his limbs were twitching constantly because of the medicinal treatment. He gritted his teeth and raised his head, saying, "Don't do anything randomly."
"..." Yan Qinghan looked back at him.
"This person in the wedding hall...even if you kill one, don't want to gain a foothold in the world again."
Yan Qinghan smiled.
"Why, are you still thinking about me now?"
"We... are classmates after all."
"Hahahaha, what a fellow disciple," Yan Qinghan laughed. After laughing, a cold light suddenly oozed out of his eyes: "It's a pity that different ways."
Liu Qinghan seemed to choke and looked at him silently.
"When you and the teacher entered Beijing, I already knew that our way was different."
“…”
"The way is different, if you don't make plans, you don't have to show any mercy to me anymore."
“…”
"I will certainly not treat you."
Liu Qinghan looked at him, and a naive expression appeared on his pale face.
Yan Qinghan slowly stood up with the sword, but just glanced at Pei Yuanfeng, then turned around and ignored him.
But, as he walked forward with his sword, each of us breathed.
His clothes brushed across the ground again, and a bloody wind blew up, and I opened my eyes wide and watched him stop at the last stop in front of someone.
Yan Qingchen.
All the hosts and guests in the Xi Hall fell down, only him, sitting in the wheelchair, his face was still as pale as usual, and his eyes were even as indifferent, as if everything in the Xi Hall had nothing to do with him. However, if you look closely, you will find that his hands on the armrests on both sides of the wheelchair looked so weak, and he didn't even have the strength to hold the armrests.
When Yan Qinghan walked in front of him, he slowly raised his eyelids and glanced at the person in front of him.
Yan Qinghan smiled and said, "You are really calm."
“…”
"You should be the first person in the wedding hall to notice, but you haven't spoken."
“…”
"What are you waiting for?"
All of us were shocked and looked at Yan Qingchen in shock. He saw that he lowered his eyelids again, and his expression even seemed a little depressed, as if he was about to fall asleep at any time.
Mrs. Yan, who had fallen to the foot of his wheelchair, had no strength to get angry at this moment, and she said breathlessly: "Qingchen, why are you--"
"Yes, why?"
Yan Qinghan picked up the sword in his hand and gently placed it on his shoulders on the tip of the bloody sword, almost a slight distance from his white and slender neck. I was even worried that if his hand moved slightly, Yan Qingchen would immediately splatter blood on the spot.
Suddenly, my breathing was suffocated and I said hoarsely: "Yan Qinghan!"
Yan Qinghan did not look back, but Yan Qingchen raised his slender black eyelashes and looked at me.
However, I only looked at me, and those eyes slowly raised up and moved behind me, as if there was a shadow slowly coming from behind.
Then, he said lightly: "I haven't spoken, I'm just waiting for him."
At this moment, everyone turned around.
I saw a figure standing there at the entrance of the Xitang gate. I don’t know whether it was because of the red silk that kept flying in the wind behind me, or the clothes that were blown by the wind, which made people feel a hint of coldness. As the long shadow he casted over me, the coldness kept piercing into my heart.
And when they saw the person's face clearly, everyone in the wedding hall was shocked.
Mrs. Yan could hardly believe her eyes. She looked at her blankly for a while, her lips trembled constantly. I don’t know if it was because of the medicine or the panic in her heart, but after a while, she finally called out the name-
"Li Guo?"
Standing in front of us was the Yan family’s butler, Li Guo!
Mrs. Yan had already called out his name, but she still seemed to be unable to believe it. She looked at him blankly for a long time: "You?!"
Although he did not have traditional Chinese medicine with the people in the Xitang, Li Guo's face was still very pale, and even more at a loss than some of us. He seemed to have no courage to meet Mrs. Yan's gaze. He just lowered his head and said respectfully: "Old Madam."
"you--"
Mrs. Yan seemed so angry that she couldn't speak, and lay on the ground and gasped. Then Li Guo slowly walked into the Xitang, but she didn't even look at the shocked expressions of us around her. She just walked straight to Yan Qingchen's wheelchair, stretched out her hand and gently pushed away the blood-stained sword that was nowhere close to Yan Qingchen's neck.
He said, "I promised you, and you promised me too, and you won't hurt the head of the family and the others."
My brows frowned.
If I had just seen him appear, I knew in my heart that the candle in the joy hall was brought by him. At that time, I was wondering why such small things would be done by his decent Yan family butler. It was just because everyone was full of joy and didn't care about it. The medicine was under the candle, and everyone lost the ability to resist after it was lit. Although Yan Qinghan stood in the fun hall like us, the handkerchief he used when he coughed had undoubtedly soaked the antidote, so he was safe and sound - and Li Guo would stand in the same camp with Yan Qinghan, and there were not many reasons to think of.
He is in the Yan family and is so surprised when Mrs. Yan saw him, which shows that he still trusts him quite well, but he betrayed them and together with Yan Qinghan, he planned to do this today.
