The life-saving thing Shen Qiqi said was not referring to Shen Ning'er's sword blow just now, but four years ago.
Four years ago, Shen Qiqi was not yet twelve years old. She was taken by the elders of her clan and went out for training for the first time. On the way back, she passed by a ruined temple, and it was in that ruined temple that she discovered Qingluo.
At that time, Qingluo hadn't eaten for an unknown amount of time. She was so thin and skinny from hunger, and she had a high fever. She was dying and looked like she might die at any moment.
On an old tree next to the ruined temple, there were several vultures that specialized in devouring carrion.
Shen Qiqi chased away the vultures and gave Qingluo some medicine. Before leaving, she left some food and a money bag.
After that, Shen Qiqi forgot about this matter and didn't take it to heart.
Unexpectedly, a few months later, Qing Luo found her home with a bag of money in her hands, and swore a vow to serve her throughout her life.
It just so happened that Shen Qiqi didn't have any capable maids around her at that time, so she accepted this little girl who relied on the word "Qi" on her purse and spent several months alone to find her.
From then on, Qingluo has been by her side, serving her with all her heart.
Even though she later had Ningshuang and no longer loved and trusted Qingluo as much as before, Qingluo never complained and still followed her loyally, explaining with practical actions what it meant to follow her to the death.
Until death.
She failed this girl in her previous life.
Shen Qiqi's eyes were slightly red, and before tears could fall from the corners of her eyes, Qing Luo suddenly opened her mouth and cried out.
The little girl cried loudly and loudly, with her mouth wide open and her facial features crumpled together. Her already slender eyes were now squeezed into two thin lines, and big tears ran down the corners of her eyes. Scroll down.
Shen Qiqi was so frightened that she forgot to feel sentimental and blame herself. She quickly found a handkerchief and wiped her tears while saying anxiously: "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Are you scared? It's okay. It's okay. Don't be afraid. , as long as I am here, I will definitely not let the big girl cause trouble for you."
He said angrily: "Weren't you very brave just now? Now you know how to be afraid? It's good that you know how to be afraid, and it can teach you a lesson, lest you be so reckless in the future and die without knowing how."
In the previous life, this girl was too strong-willed and had no scheming to say anything, so she ended up being framed and died tragically.
If she hadn't been there just now, according to Shen Ning'er's personality, Qing Luo would probably be dead by now.
Therefore, Shen Qiqi subconsciously thought that Qing Luo cried because she realized the seriousness of the matter belatedly and was so scared that she cried.
Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Qingluo, who was crying with tears in her eyes, suddenly stopped crying, shook her head and said: "No, I am not afraid, I am crying for joy!"
"Happy?" Shen Qiqi frowned and said suspiciously, "The big girl is in the limelight right now, and even I am suppressed by her. You are a little maid, and if you offended her like that just now, she may go to her father to complain at any time. , Otherwise, it’s not impossible to kill you while I’m away. What’s so exciting about this?”
Is the little girl scared out of her wits?
Seeing Shen Qiqi looking at her with a look like "Are you scared to death?" Qing Luo said quickly:
"Girl, the maid was not frightened. The maid is really happy, because the girl just said that without your permission, the maid is not allowed to die without permission. This shows that in the girl's heart, there is still a place for the maid, so The servant girl cried with joy, not because she was afraid, really!"
Qingluo said, grinning.
The little maid was really happy, because since Ningshuang appeared, Shen Qiqi had gradually become cold towards her, and scolded her at every turn. She was so sad that she shed tears several times because of this.
But just now, Shen Qiqi not only blocked the sword for her, but also said that she was not allowed to die without permission, which immediately comforted her injured heart.
Qingluo raised her hand, wiped away her tears, then straightened her back and solemnly promised: "I will remember the girl's order. Your life will belong to the girl from now on. Without the permission of the girl, I will never dare to do anything without permission." Go to hell!”
As for the fact that she offended the eldest girl just now... Huh, she's not afraid!
The reason why the eldest girl can worship the Purple Spirit Immortal as her teacher is because her girl has been hiding her clumsiness, leaving the eldest girl behind. In terms of strength, the eldest girl is not even half as good as her girl!
But Qingluo didn't say anything, and only said: "Don't worry, young lady, I have also taken your instructions to heart, and I will definitely not act recklessly in the future."
She still has to save her life to protect the girl.
Shen Qiqi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She never thought that Qing Luo, who seemed carefree and didn't care about anything, actually had such a sentimental side in her heart. She treated this girl like that in her previous life, and she didn't know how many tears she shed behind her back.
Thinking of this, Shen Qiqi couldn't help but feel guilty again. She gently scratched Qingluo's nose. Before she could say "I'm sorry", a "dong" sound suddenly came from the next room.
Then there was a man's muffled sound.
Shen Qiqi frowned, thought of something, her expression changed, and she quickly ran out of the house and rushed to the next room.
With Shen Ning'er being interrupted like this, she actually forgot about Xie Beiming!
Qing Luo also heard the man's muffled groan, and saw Shen Qiqi running out in a panic, so she hurriedly followed her.
Unfortunately, he was a step too late and was locked out by his girl.
Touching her nose that was almost caught by the door, Qingluo patted the door worriedly and said: "Girl, girl!"
"It's okay!" Shen Qiqi's voice came from inside the house, "Qingluo, you...go get a basin of hot water quickly!"
"okay!"
Qingluo didn't know why, but she still followed her instructions and went to fetch a basin of hot water.
"Girl, the hot water is here... Do you want to bring it in?"
"No need! Just put it outside, I'll come out and pick it up myself!" Shen Qiqi said quickly looking at Xie Beiming, who was sweating profusely and sitting on the ground in messy clothes.
Xie Beiming looked like he had just had a fierce fight with someone and was defeated.
Although Shen Qiqi still didn't know what happened, she knew one thing very well: Xie Beiming's current embarrassed appearance must not be seen by others, otherwise this guy would have no image to speak of in the future.
Thinking of this, Shen Qiqi hurriedly told Qing Luo through the door: "Qing Luo, go to the kitchen and bring some food over... By the way, make it lighter and don't add spicy food!"
The climate in Yuzhou is humid, and it is extremely cold especially in winter. Therefore, the locals in Yuzhou have very strong tastes. Even if it is a bowl of tofu, they will add some spicy pepper to it to ward off the cold.
But Xie Beiming is from the south.
Southerners seem to generally have a light diet.
Judging from the way Xie Beiming fell asleep immediately as soon as his head hit the pillow, it is estimated that not only has he stayed with him all night these past few days, he may not even have eaten well.
