C69

The next day at noon, the group finally arrived at Migratory Water Town.

When the female boss behind the counter saw that a customer had arrived, she immediately put down the shop assistant in her hands and walked up to him.

"Guests, do you want to be the leader or live here …" "Hiss!" The Lady Boss suddenly saw the woman covered in blood on the back of a man, she was so scared that she took two steps back and forced out a smile. Guest... "She …"

Qu Ling turned his head to look at the woman, and comforted her: "Don't worry, she's still alive; she's only injured a little."

The girl looked as if she had just come out of a vat. The Lady Boss silently cursed and smiled again. She then asked, "Then the guests will be staying here, right? "Coincidentally, I don't have many things here, but there are a lot of guest rooms!"

This inn could be considered the largest inn in the entire Flowing Water Town. It had three floors and dozens of rooms.

Qu Ling replied: "Accommodation."

"Alright!" With a smile on her face, the Lady Boss turned around and said a few words to the waiter behind her.

The waiter nodded, trotted to the staircase and made a "please" gesture, "Guests, please follow me."

Among the group, only the soldier with the woman on his back followed the waiter. The rest of them stood still on the spot.

Xiao Jingyue led Qu Ling to casually find a table and a chair to sit down on, and said indifferently: "Serve a few dishes first."

The Lady Boss calmly glanced at the blood-robed woman on the tower and replied, "Okay, okay. Guest, please wait a moment."

With that, he personally went to the kitchen to give orders.

Perhaps because there were no other guests in the inn, the kitchen served very quickly.

After the group had filled their stomachs, they went back to work.

This was Ah Xin's first time leaving the village, and she was extremely curious about the outside world.

But Xiao Yi had been left behind by Xiao Jingyue to protect Qu Ling, so how could he dare to leave without permission?

Seeing that he couldn't take it anymore, Ah Xin went back to look for Qu Ling with her small face. "Elder sister, I want to go out and play."

Qu Ling disapprovingly waved his hand, "Go."

Ah Xin frowned in distress, "But I don't know how to speak the Chinese language."

Qu Ling still wanted to wait for the girl to wake up and ask her some questions, but he didn't plan to take Ah Xin out to play, so he said: "Let Xiao Yi accompany you."

Xiao Yi, who was guarding the door: "…"

The mistress' words could not be disregarded, nor could the matriarch's words be disregarded.

Xiao Yi was helpless, he had to find two Dark Guard s to protect Qu Ling, and only then did he bring Ah Xin out.

In the guest room, only Qu Ling and the unconscious woman were left.

Qu Ling looked at her blood-red clothes, thought for a while, then stood up and ordered some servants to buy a set of female robes to return. He closed the door to the guest room, and took his clothes to the side of the bed.

She hesitated for a moment, then sat down on the edge of the bed. Throwing her new clothes to the side, she reached out to untie the woman's clothes.

The woman on the bed didn't move at all. She was like a piece of meat on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.

With great difficulty, Qu Ling helped her take off her tattered outer clothes, then continued to strip her undergarment.

Speaking of which, this was the first time in her life that she had taken off another woman's clothes.

When she thought of the place where she was going to see the girl, she suddenly felt a little hot in her nose. Her hands also began to shake, and she even felt that it was absurd to molest a common woman.

With a blush on her face, she took a deep breath and gently untied the straps of her undergarment.

"Cough …"

A light cough came from the woman's throat as her chest heaved.

Qu Ling, who was a guilty conscience, was startled and quickly retracted his hand. He said: "You're awake!"

The woman slowly opened her eyes and slightly parted her lips, as if she wanted to say something.

However, she had been injured and lost consciousness for nearly a day. Not a single drop of water stained, her lips were dry and painful, her throat was mute and she could not say a word, she could only look at Qu Ling for help.

Qu Ling went to the side of the table to pour a cup of water for her, then ran to the guest room next door and called Qu Ci over.

"You're awake?"

Qu Ci walked to the side of the bed and sat down.

Qu Ling then moved a chair and sat on the side of the bed, he stared at the woman's face.

He had felt like it last night, and the more he looked at it now, the more it felt like it. She couldn't help but suspect whether Chu Yu had a twin sister or something like that who had been sent to another place.

"What's on your body is only a superficial wound. Don't touch the water during this period of time, don't use too much strength, and don't breathe too much. Rest well for ten to eight days and you will be completely healed." After Qu Ci finished speaking, he took the empty cup from her hands, turned around and walked to the side of the table to warm the empty cup, then returned it to her hands.

The woman lowered her eyes and softly said, "Thank you."

After the girl finished the second cup of water, Qu Ling then asked: "May I ask where the young lady lives?"

Facing Qu Ling who was of a similar age, the woman's expression became a little more natural, and she said gently: "My name is Gu Xi, and I live in Huai Village."

The town of Huai was in the southeast part of the kingdom of prayer, far from the town of Rongshui, in the southwest of the kingdom of prayer. Even if they were traveling fast, it would still take them at least five or six days to get there.

As if he had seen through Qu Ling's thoughts, Gu Xi slowly said: "Two months ago, Gu Xi's foster mother passed away. Before I left, he sent me to the southwest to find her. I too... "Just a little bit more and I would have …"

As he finished speaking, Gu Xi seemed to recall something terrible and covered his face and started to cry.

Qu Ling and Qu Ci looked at each other.

Judging from the woman's condition, she wouldn't be able to remain calm for a while.

Qu Ling didn't ask again, and softly said: "You rest first, I'll go down and find something for you to eat."

Pausing, she said somewhat embarrassedly, "Just now, I wanted to help you change your clothes. Your clothes were torn and dirty …" Since you're already awake, do it yourself. "

With that, he pulled Qu Ci and left the guest room.

The two of them went downstairs together, and Qu Ling asked: "Grandma, do you think that the young lady's words are trustworthy?"

"I'm not sure." Qu Ci shook his head, "However, when I was bandaging her wound, I did indeed see that kind of mark on her collarbone."

Qu Ling was no longer an ignorant girl, so he naturally knew what kind of traces they were.

She was too thin-skinned to continue with this kind of thing.

Thinking that injured people could not eat greasy food, Qu Ling brought a bowl of porridge over to Gu Xi.

Gu Xi thanked him repeatedly before he took the bowl.

No matter what she did, a beauty was always pleasing to the eyes, even if she was a sickly beauty dressed in tattered bloody clothing.

Qu Ling supported his cheeks with his hands as he watched the beauty drink her porridge with interest.

This beauty only looked similar to Chu Yu, with a completely different personality and behavior.

For example, Chu Yu wouldn't thank her, or take small bites like her, or make men and women unable to endure Chu Yu's coquettish actions.

As for this girl, she was as quiet as a lady from a noble family with her manners.

After the beauty had eaten her fill, Qu Ling asked: "Do you know where the relative is? I'll get someone to send you there."

Gu Xi shook his head gently and said in a low voice: "Mother only said that it's in the southwest and didn't know the exact address."

"Then do you know who your mother wanted you to find?"

"Mother said that it was my twin brother. He was born exactly like me."
