Nie Li took out some silver and gave it to the inn. Because of the assassination, the doors, windows and wooden tables were broken. Naturally, they needed to be rearranged. After taking the things and changing to another room, Nie Li felt that today's events were a little strange. First, it was Qin Xinyin's letter, then it was the black clothed man's attack. Although the two events weren't related, something else seemed to have happened.
Sitting cross-legged and cultivating, Nie Li, who had nothing to do, wanted to look for Qin Xinyin. However, since she wrote a letter to him, it must be to avoid suspicion during the day. Therefore, he simply sat cross-legged and cultivated.
The sky quickly darkened. Nie Li ended his cultivation and decided to look for Qin Xinyin. Walking on the street, he slowly walked towards the cloth store. The sky was dark, but it wasn't dark. There was also a faint yellow ribbon draped over the horizon.
Looking at the bustling market and the hawkers that could be seen everywhere, Cloud Sea City at night had the human and secular taste of this world.
"Isn't this Brother Nie? Where are you going? " The luxurious carriage stopped. Nie Li looked at Wang Huaili who stuck his head out and casually said that he was wandering around.
"I have an appointment with Rou 'er and Miss Qin to go to the Nameless Residence. I wonder if Brother Nie can do me the honor of going together?" When Wang Huaili mentioned Yang Surou, a smile appeared on his face. Opening the curtain of the carriage, a warm aura spread out from within.
Nie Li was slightly surprised. Didn't Qin Xinyin have an appointment with him? But why did she have to meet Wang Huaili at the Nameless Residence? Was he lying, or was she lying?
"Since the two Senior Sisters are here, then I'll go with Brother Wang!" Finishing his words, Nie Li lightly jumped into the carriage. The interior was rather spacious. There was even a stove with a burning charcoal.
Wang Huaili opened the curtain of the carriage. A gust of cold wind blew. Nie Li couldn't help shivering and tightened his clothes. Looking at the bright lights outside, Wang Huaili's face revealed a different meaning when he turned around.
"Tell me, what did you do to Nie Li?" At this moment, at the ferry of Cloud Sea City, Qin Xinyin looked at the man in front of her. Although her expression was calm, there was a trace of anxiety and resentment in her eyes.
"If you want to know where he is being held, you have to agree to one of my requests." Wei Wuyou was stunned at first, but then he showed a smile of understanding. He also had his own calculations in his heart.
"Accompany me to the Nameless Residence for a meal. If I'm happy, I'll release him." Wei Wuyou thought of the words in the letter. Although he didn't want to go, when he thought of seeing Qin Xinyin, he put down his pride.
"You." Qin Xinyin was so angry that her eyes were wide open. Her angry appearance had a different flavor to it. This made Wei Wuyou's index finger twitch. His greed for Qin Xinyin became even stronger.
"I promise you. I hope you can keep your word. If you dare to do anything bad, I don't mind making the Iron Chain Gang one less person." Qin Xinyin thought of Nie Li's situation and put down her arrogance. However, her cold warning still made Wei Wuyou a little fearful.
Wei Wuyou's face lit up with joy. After that, he invited Qin Xinyin onto the carriage and sped towards the Nameless Residence. When they arrived at their destination, Nie Li realized that it was the same place as last time. Wang Huaili brought Nie Li to his original room and stood on the balcony. Compared to last time, he had a different feeling.
It was pitch black. The winding coast was like a coiled python. Many flower boats were like stars. Countless flowers bloomed in the night under the faint moonlight. The flower boats laughed and chatted with the returning guests. The lotus waves danced to invite the immortals.
"Brother Wang, why haven't the two senior sisters arrived yet?" Nie Li stood on the balcony for a long time and felt bored. He looked at Wang Huaili, who was sitting on the main seat and sipping wine.
Wang Huaili held the wine jug in his left hand and the wine cup in his right hand. He leisurely walked to Nie Li's side and placed the wine cup in front of Nie Li's face. The pungent smell was clearly different from the wine from last time.
"Brother Nie, what do you think of Cloud Sea City?" Wang Huaili opened his right hand that was holding the wine cup. His eyes were blurred and no one knew where he was looking.
"Very big, very prosperous." Nie Li took a glance and casually said.
"On the contrary, it's too small." Wang Huaili smiled, took a sip of wine and said. Nie Li was stunned. Cloud Sea City was the biggest city he had ever seen. However, in Wang Huaili's eyes, it was too small.
"That's why it's so small. It's only enough to satisfy one person." Wang Huaili said to himself. Nie Li felt that his words had some other meaning. Just when he wanted to ask more, Wang Huaili's voice came from outside.
"Quickly, bring the best wine for this young master." Wei Wuyou said loudly, as if he wanted everyone to know that he was here.
"Brother Nie, wait for me for a moment. I'll go see Wei Wuyou." Wang Huaili placed the wine cup and jug on the table, got up and walked out. Perhaps because he was in a hurry, the door to the room was wide open. The noisy sound of footsteps and chatter from outside poured into the room, breaking the silence.
"Young Master Wei, I heard your voice from afar."
"Young Master Wang, you're also in the mood to come here! I wonder who you're with. "
"A friend. Young Master Wei, you're really lucky. The person beside you is Miss Qin, right?"
"That's right. Does Young Master Wang know her?" When Wei Wuyou heard Wang Huaili's words, he felt a little proud in his heart. The pride of being held by someone was really comfortable.
"I have a childhood sweetheart who's Miss Qin's junior sister. Naturally, I know Miss Qin." The conversation between Wang Huaili and Wei Wuyou fell into Nie Li's ears. His body trembled. Is it because the balcony is too cold?!
"Then, Miss Qin and I won't disturb Young Master Wang's mood." After Wei Wuyou finished speaking, he walked past the door with Qin Xinyin. Qin Xinyin's expression was still calm. As usual, she didn't see Nie Li. However, Nie Li saw her and followed Wei Wuyou away.
After Wang Huaili came in, he closed the door and said with an embarrassed expression, "Brother Nie, I'm sorry. I thought that Rou 'er and Miss Qin would come, but you saw this scene. I hope you don't mind. She must have something to discuss with Wei Wuyou. "
It was fine if he didn't say anything. The moment he said it, Nie Li felt something stuck in his chest, as if he had suddenly lost something important. The last time he had this kind of feeling was in front of his father's grave.
"It's nothing." Nie Li waved his hand, but even the strength to raise his arm was so heavy. The night wind was even colder than before. Nie Li turned around and leaned over the balcony. Looking at the people coming and going on the street and the starlight in the distance, he felt that this place had abandoned him for the first time.
"Drink, wine is a good thing. It makes people forget their worries." After saying that, Wang Huaili took two jars of wine and handed one to Nie Li. Although he didn't want to drink, he still opened the seal of the clay jar and took a sip.
The hot wine was like a steel knife cutting through his throat. Nie Li coughed heavily a few times. His face was flushed red. He raised the wine jar and kept drinking. The strong wine poured on his face, flowed into his heart, and wet his cuffs.
A drop of tears mixed with the wine flowed together. After drinking one jar after another, Nie Li only felt that his head was spinning and his feet were light. He hurriedly used his internal force to dissolve the wine, but the wine was too strong. He couldn't sober up in a short time.
"Brother Nie, you've drunk enough. I'll send you back!" Wang Huaili looked at Nie Li's eyes, supported him with his hand, and asked softly.
"It's okay, I can do it alone." After he finished speaking, Nie Li staggered out of the room. After Nie Li left, Wang Huaili no longer had any drunken look on his face. Instead, his crazy laughter echoed throughout the room.
Walking on the street, the cold wind blew. The cold touch on the soaked clothes made Nie Li's mind somewhat clear. According to his memory, he could still find the way back to the inn. A jar of wine, strong into the throat, Azure River is full of stars.
"Dong" Nie Li's body fell heavily to the ground. The thick and cold ground made Nie Li feel incomparably stable. The pain of falling to the ground couldn't be compared to the pain in his heart. Looking at Qin Xinyin and that man, he thought of the time he spent with her. It was like a dream. He suddenly laughed, laughed very loudly. But everyone thought it was a drunk man and didn't pay attention to him.
"Young hero, I don't know if you can stand up." A man walked to Nie Li's side and stretched out his hands to support him. Nie Li glanced at the man in front of him. He was a very ordinary person. He couldn't see any special features. But the only thing that could be noticed was that he was wearing armor.
"Today's bow and arrow didn't kill you. You're really lucky." Like the voice of the devil, Nie Li looked at the man in front of him in shock. How did he know? Was he the man in black?
"Puchi" A sharp pain came from his abdomen. A dagger was inserted into his body. When Nie Li was in pain, he pulled out his knife and slashed at the man in front of him.
But because he was drunk, the blade was weak and weak, and the accuracy was very poor. It was easily dodged. At this time, neat footsteps came from behind. A group of soldiers wearing the same armor as the man in front of him surrounded Nie Li.
"Dare to attack the officers and soldiers, catch him for me." After that, the group of soldiers raised their spears and surrounded Nie Li. Nie Li felt his body was getting heavier and heavier. He had no strength to resist. His body fell to the ground.
Seeing Nie Li fell to the ground without any strength to resist, the commander shouted: "Catch him, take him to the prison and serve him well." The people behind him picked up the rope, tied Nie Li up, and walked away in neat steps.
The man was also inside. He exchanged glances with the commander, but didn't say anything. A group of people came and went in a hurry. It didn't affect the prosperity of the night market. Everything returned to the way it was before.
I have eaten with you. Now you can let Nie Li go! " Qin Xinyin sat on the chair. The food on the table was not touched. Looking at Wei Wuyou who was eating, she wanted to slap him to death.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I am a person of integrity." Wei Wuyou swallowed the food in his mouth, drank a mouthful of wine, and wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief.
"I don't have time to waste with you. Otherwise, don't blame me." Qin Xinyin's face was cold. The table was covered with frost at a speed visible to the naked eye. The wine jug and wine cup in front of Wei Wuyou exploded and turned into ice.
"Okay, okay, okay, I'll talk." Seeing Qin Xinyin was ruthless, Wei Wuyou quickly admitted defeat.
"Nie Li is not in my hands, but I guess he has seen the two of us come to eat together." Wei Wuyou sneered and threw a bomb.
The table and all the dishes on it turned into ice crystals. The surrounding air was a bit cold.
