Chapter 5 The Grave Man(2/2)

Luo Qianqiu's appetite was whetted by her husband, and she looked at him curiously with her ethereal and soft eyes.

Li Nanke said freely: "Madam, did you say before that they are not spiritual beasts? I happen to know such a way. First put them in a pot and boil them, and when they become broth, we only need to drink it, and we can dream with them. Let’s meet and communicate.”

The man's tone was full of ridicule, but also seemed to have a hint of seriousness.

It seems like he really thought about it.

Knowing that her husband was joking, Luo Qianqiu still showed an expression of interest: "Is it really so magical?"

"Why don't you try cooking this old bastard first?"

Li Nanke looked at Mr. Turtle who was lying at the door with his eyes closed and concentrating. He licked his lips and encouraged his wife. "If you don't talk about anything else, drinking soup is really a beautiful thing."

Perhaps sensing the man's greedy gaze, Lord Turtle quietly retracted his head into his shell.

Sister Goose hesitated and hid in the pond.

Luo Qianqiu shook her head helplessly, picked up a piece of crab meat and put it into the man's bowl. There was anger in her sweet voice: "If you really cook and eat them, master will probably break your bones and throw you into the wolf's den." Got a meal inside."

"Master, is he very cruel?" the man asked curiously.

In his memory, Li Nanke had no memory of the old Taoist priest who adopted him. He relied on his wife's fragmentary mentions to make associations.

"It's very fierce. I remember when I first brought you here, you had a lot of whip wounds on your body."

The woman's eyes looked sympathetic. "It was all beaten by Master."

Whip...injury?

Li Nanke was a little confused. His thoughts were not simple at all. He thought of many incredible plots, and the food in his mouth no longer tasted good.

Could it be that Master has a special hobby?

But when he saw the woman biting her lip as if to hold back a smile, she knew she was being teased.

Li Nanke was speechless: "Madam can actually play tricks on her husband."

The deflated look of her husband made Luo Qianqiu couldn't help but laugh. She lightly covered her mouth with the back of her white hands, her posture was elegant and graceful, and she was playful yet dignified.

At this moment, the couple, who were originally as respectful as strangers, became a little closer.

Luo Qianqiu put down Kuai Zi and looked at him seriously: "However, when Master sent you here, you were indeed covered with bruises, and even your hair was cut off. Later, when I was treating your injuries, I... hit you on the head again. , I’m really afraid that I won’t survive.”

Hair was cut...

Li Nanke was startled, thoughtful.

After dinner, Li Nanke took the initiative to help clear the tableware.

Luo Qianqiu soaked the medicinal materials that had been fried during the day in special leaf juice several times, placed them next to the stove to bake for a while, and then put them back into the medicine box.

Li Nanke doesn't understand medicine, but after experiencing these years, he understands that his wife's medical skills are indeed very good.

Everyone who came to seek medical treatment gave me five-star praise.

These 'good reviews' are not just fake, because those patients or family members who gave negative reviews will be greeted by Sister Goose.

Even when I woke up from my bed the next day, I could still see Sister Goose standing outside the window, staring at them and observing them secretly.

After cleaning up her chores, Luo Qianqiu quietly read the medical books.

Li Nanke had nothing to do, so he originally planned to pick up Sister Goose and pet her, but he couldn't find it after searching all over the place, so he had to go back to the house to find a medical book and pretend to read it.

After a while, the man dozed off.

Even though I had a nap in the afternoon, I entered the red rain dreamland to slay the dream demon, and my mental fatigue had already reached the critical point.

Luo Qianqiu looked amused and said softly: "My husband, please go and rest first."

Without waiting for the man to respond, she stood up and made the bed, then lit a stick of soothing incense mixed with medicine and placed it next to her.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Li Nanke asked.

He didn't want to play some casual clapping games with each other on the bed. After all, although the two of them were in the same room, they were in different beds.

When it comes to matters between men and women, Li Nanke still respects each other very much.

If you don't want to, then don't force it.

The twisted melon is really not sweet.

It's not because you're afraid of being poisoned by the other party.

"No, I have to read a book for a while." Luo Qianqiu took off the man's coat and hung it on the hanger.

"Okay, then you should go to bed early. Staying up late is not good for your skin."

"Um."

The woman nodded her jade head lightly, fearing to disturb her husband, so she held a candle and walked to the corner table to read.

Perhaps it was because he was too mentally exhausted, or perhaps it was the effect of the soothing incense. Soon Li Nanke fell into a deep sleep, and even occasionally snored a few times.

The moonlight is clear, but the candlelight is muddy.

The moonlight that squeezed in through the window melted into the halo of the candle, illuminating half of the woman's pink neck, which was translucent and white, and the green veins were faintly visible.

It wasn't until the cicadas chirped outside the house that Luo Qianqiu put down the medical book in her hand.

She looked sideways at her sleeping husband on the bed for a while, then stood up and walked out of the house lightly.

The cool breeze stirred up the woman's soft blue hair.

In the thick darkness of night, the steep mountain peaks in front of us were as blank as ghosts, and seemed to be wrapped in a layer of gray silver light, as misty as smoke.

Luo Qianqiu looked at the bright moon, lost in thought.

At this moment, she was like a white jade statue, standing quietly and pretty.

Watching the thick clouds in the distance getting closer, watching the bright moon like a frozen disc being swallowed bit by bit, watching the night getting darker...

Suddenly, the sound of gongs and banging of clappers were faintly heard from the distant city streets, all three times.

At midnight, the third watch has arrived!

Luo Qianqiu took a deep breath, turned around and entered the house.

She skillfully took out a half-foot-long pointed awl from under the table and walked to the bed with light steps.

The man on the bed was breathing deeply and sleeping peacefully.

The woman unbuttoned his undershirt, exposed half of his body, raised the sharp awl high, and murmured: "Mr., the third watch has arrived, it's time to hit the road."

After that, he stabbed the man's heart violently!
