Bloodstained Hero's Clothes

Chapter 152 Where the Wind Rises, the Truth Comes Out (Part [-])
Ling'er didn't go directly to Jingxi branch, but turned into Qingfeng Inn.

Early in the morning, the "Feng'er" were not there.

According to Ling'er's experience, there was no one here early in the morning because the government did not spread the news of Qing Feng Xia, otherwise Sister Lan and the others would gather here impatiently.

When Ling'er arrived at the West Beijing sub-altar, Qi Dian had just finished his business and came out of the conference hall.

"Miss Ling'er, why are you here?" Qi Dian asked with a smile, "Did you come to see Dr. Xu? He has been to the main altar these two days."

"No, I'm here to find you, Big Brother Qi Dian." Ling'er said.

"Oh? Then come in and talk!" Qi Dian led Linger back to the meeting hall.

"Did Brother Qi Dian know what happened last night?" Linger asked tentatively.

Qi Dian glanced at the white bandage on Linger's neck that was not completely covered by the collar, and said, "Well, I understand a little bit. It's good that the girl is fine."

Ling'er said sadly: "Qingfeng Xia was shot by an arrow to save me."

"Where is he injured?" Qi Dian asked anxiously.

Brother Qi Dian didn't know anything about this matter?Ling'er looked at Qi Dian in surprise, and replied: "The arrow passed through his left shoulder, but luckily it didn't hurt any bones."

Qi Dian nodded and explained: "I only know that he acted recklessly. He knew that the Black Lotus Sect had set up an ambush and went to rescue people alone, but he didn't know that he was injured. I haven't seen him today."

"Does that mean no one is taking care of him now?" Linger asked.

"It shouldn't be serious. If it is serious, I will know." Qi Dian wanted to comfort Ling'er, but unexpectedly, it made Linger even more worried.

Linger asked again: "Then he usually takes care of himself when he is injured?"

"En." Qi Dian nodded and sighed secretly.

"So, Big Brother Qi Dian doesn't know about that cave either?" Linger asked.

"What cave?" Qi Dian was puzzled.

"It's nothing." Ling'er felt sorry for Qi Yang even more, and his brother was too dereliction of duty.

Qi Dian also knows that he is not a good brother, but he is busy with his work and really has no time to take care of Qi Yang.

"By the way, Big Brother Qi Dian, I came here to know if Qingfeng Xia usually disguises himself?" Linger asked.

"Occasionally!" Qi Dian said, "If he feels unsure, he is worried that he will disguise his identity when he misses and gets captured."

"Worried about being captured by mistake and revealing your identity?" Ling'er was startled.

"Yes, in case the identity is revealed..." Qi Dian did not continue.

Ling'er thought to herself: "If Qi Yang's identity is exposed, then so many people in the entire Qi family may be implicated."

"Why does the girl ask these questions?" Qi Dian asked.

"It's nothing, I'm just curious." Ling'er said.

Qi Dian thought to himself: "He must not be sure of rushing into Ningji Temple to save people alone, it is too reckless!"

Ling'er thought to herself: "In this way, he changed his appearance to prevent his identity from being exposed too much. It's not that he died or didn't want me to know his true identity."

Ling'er was no longer sad because of this.

However, Ling'er was filled with emotion when she thought that even if he was not sure that he would be able to escape unscathed, he would risk his life to save herself.

While the two were contemplating each other, Qi Yang pushed open the door of the meeting room and walked in.

When Ling'er heard the movement, she instinctively turned her head to look, and was taken aback. She didn't expect to see Qi Yang here and now!

Qi Yang was also surprised to see Ling'er here.

His wound was in pain, so he didn't pay attention to hear the movement in the meeting hall, thinking that no one was talking and only Qi Dian was there.

He didn't know that he would meet Ling'er when he went out today, so he didn't change his pale face easily.

After greeting Ling'er, he turned his face away, fearing that Ling'er would become suspicious.

Seeing Qi Yang's pale face and mental exhaustion, Ling'er felt very distressed.Seeing him straining his spirits and deliberately avoiding her gaze, Ling'er finally couldn't bear to see him trying hard to cover up, so she offered to leave.

After taking a deep look at Qi Yang, Ling'er reluctantly walked out of the conference hall.

After confirming that Ling'er was gone, Qi Yang breathed a sigh of relief.He found a seat nearby and sat down slowly.

"How is your injury?" Qi Dian walked to Qi Yang's side and asked with concern.

"It's nothing, just scratched the skin." Qi Yang raised his eyes to look at Qi Dian, endured the pain and smiled softly, "Don't be so nervous, right?"

"It's just scratching the skin?" Qi Dian asked.

Qi Yang nodded a little guilty, and hurriedly changed the subject: "I have something important..."

"No matter how important things are, you don't need to come here in person, just let someone tell you, and I will go there." Qi Dian said in a deep voice.

"Oh, I see." Seeing that Qi Dian was unhappy, Qi Yang nodded in response.

"What's the matter?" Qi Dian asked.

"Girl Gan is probably being targeted by the Black Lotus Sect. You should send more experts to protect her secretly." Qi Yang said seriously.

"Well, I've already arranged the manpower." Qi Dian said.

"That's good, I'll go back first." Qi Yang said, standing up slowly.

"Ayang, don't go back, stay in the sub-altar for a few days!" Qi Dian said.

"What's wrong?" Qi Yang asked.

"In the sub-forum, at least someone will take care of you." Qi Dian said.

Qi Yang curled his lips disapprovingly, turned around and left.

Qi Dian grabbed Qi Yang's arm to stop him.

Qi Yang only felt a burst of severe pain, his eyes went dark, and his body fell backwards.

It was only then that Qi Dian noticed that he was pulling Qi Yang's left arm just now, he quickly supported Qi Yang, and called anxiously: "Ayang! Are you okay?"

Qi Yang didn't respond to him, but passed out from the pain.
-
After Ling'er left the Jingxi sub-altar, she had no direction, and walked outside Qi's house unknowingly.

Suddenly, Ling'er thought of a question. Brother Qi Dian said just now that he hadn't seen Qi Yang today, so it meant that Qi Yang was not in the sub-forum before.

If he is not in the sub-forum, where is he?It is certain that he went back to Qi Mansion before, and then where did he go?Maybe in the woods, somewhere near Qi's house.

Thinking of this, Ling'er pushed open the door of Qi's house, and wanted to go through Qi's house to check in the woods.

When opening the back door of Qi's house, Ling'er suddenly smelled a bloody smell.

She stopped immediately and searched on the ground.

The light here is dim, and you can only see a small piece of ground in front of the door with the light from the door. There is only some sand and no blood on it.

Ling'er was not willing to let go of any clues, so she hurriedly went to the kitchen to get a candle.

Holding the torch, Ling'er still didn't find any blood on the ground.

Suddenly, Linger thought of something.

She hurriedly closed the back door and lit it with a candle, and sure enough, she saw blood on the latch.The blood was bright red, and it hadn't been long.

Ling'er guessed that Qi Yang left behind when he closed the door.

Then, Linger tried to search on the wall by the door, and she found several bloodstains.

Looking at these bloodstains, Ling'er seemed to see Qing Fengxia leaning on the wall and walking forward step by step with difficulty.

"But where is he going? There is no way ahead." Ling'er thought in confusion.

Linger suddenly realized that there was a secret door ahead.

She walked over quickly, pushed hard on the wall where the last bloodstain was left, and a secret door was opened.
