At noon.

When Luo Qingzhou woke up, the snow was still falling outside.

He opened his eyes and was in a daze for a while, recalling the blurry images in his dream before getting up.

As soon as I sat up, I suddenly felt a pain in my chest.

He couldn't help but bared his teeth, raised his hand and touched it, and felt another wave of pain.

He quickly opened his clothes and looked down.

Seeing this, his expression suddenly changed!

My chest was dotted and turned purple!

And it’s even swollen!

What's going on?

Except for pulling it a little when he was testing the results of his cultivation under the bridge that night, he never touched this place again.

Every time Xiaodie gave him a bath, although she would rub it a few times, she didn't intentionally hurt it.

What's going on?

How could he be so seriously injured all of a sudden?

He just took a nap.

What puzzled him the most was that he felt nothing at all in his sleep.

Now he is not only practicing martial arts, but also cultivating his soul. His perception is different from ordinary people. It is impossible for someone to harm him without knowing it.

Did he pinch himself while he was dreaming?

Thinking of the heart-rending scene in his dream, he gradually seemed to understand something.

It definitely is.

Other than those who pinch themselves, who would be bored and pinch him secretly?

Even if you have a deep grudge against him, you can't just fight here, right?

What's more, he was injured so badly, but he didn't wake up, and he was currently practicing muscle training. Apart from doing it himself, he really couldn't find any other reason.

"hiss……"

He touched it lightly with his fingertips and took a deep breath in pain.

Don't touch it, don't touch it anymore.

He carefully put down his clothes and got up.

In my dream, I pinched myself like this, and there is no one else.

never mind.

It seems that I can't practice today.

It doesn't matter if it hurts other places. This place is just supported by the clothes. It hurts even if you move it lightly. You don't dare to do strenuous exercise.

Get dressed and wash up.

He decided to return the silver to Xia Chan first, and then go to Miss Qin Er's place.

The mother-in-law has already spoken this morning.

If he doesn't tell Miss Qin Er a story today, he will look good tonight.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was daytime and absolutely safe, he decided to tell Miss Qin Er a few rounds of "The Story of the Stone" before leaving, so as to avoid the embarrassing incident like last night happening again at night.

He went out of the room, preparing to take two bunches of candied haws, which he would give to Xia Chan and Bai Ling when he returned to pay back the money, but he was stunned as soon as he arrived in the living room.

The five bunches of candied haws on the table were missing!

There were only four empty bamboo sticks stuck there, and they were all bare, not even a trace of sugar juice left!

Luo Qingzhou: "..."

Who stole his candied haws?

wildcat?

mouse?

Thief?

Apparently neither.

Besides that weird girl, who else could do such a thing?

Even Xia Chan came to get it in front of him when he was around, and would never do such a thing secretly behind his back.

It’s clear who the thief is!

Luo Qingzhou counted the silver coins, put them into the small bag Xia Chan gave him, and went out.

He decided to reprimand the girl who stole the food.

It’s okay to eat one or two skewers. Why eat so much? What should I do if my teeth are damaged? Follow him from now on...

etc!

Suddenly his heart moved.

Since that girl Bai Ling came here secretly, could the injury on my chest also be caused by that girl?

With that girl’s character, she would definitely be able to do such a thing!

The more Luo Qingzhou thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and he speeded up his pace unconsciously.

When he arrived at Lingchan Moon Palace in the wind and snow, the courtyard door was open.

The front yard is very quiet.

He knocked at the door and walked in.

There is no one in the front yard.

He went to the back with ease.

As soon as I walked to the door of the back garden, I suddenly saw Bai Ling leaning on the door, holding a bunch of candied haws in his hand and licking it happily with his eyes narrowed.

There was only the last one left on the bamboo stick.

Sure enough it was her!

There were only four bamboo sticks left on the table, and the last one was now being held in her hand!

Everyone gains the stolen goods!

Luo Qingzhou walked over quickly.

Bai Ling heard the footsteps and turned around to see him. He was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes showed a hint of joy that the rain was coming after a long drought. He quickly ate the last candied haws in his mouth, and then threw the bamboo stick in In the flowers beside him, he puffed up his cheeks and said vaguely: "Gu...Guye, Ni Laile...wait, wait, there is still...and Dengxi..."

Luo Qingzhou walked closer and was about to speak when he suddenly saw the cold girl standing next to him, staring at him coldly.

Luo Qingzhou had no choice but to put aside the matter of candied haws for the time being, took out the small bag from his pocket, held it in both hands and handed it to her, and said sincerely: "Miss Xia Chan, this is the money you owe me, thank you for coming. Help me every time and solve my urgent need."

Xia Chan was slightly startled and looked at the small money bag in his hand.

Bai Ling on the side quickly swallowed the candied haws in his mouth, and said with a surprised look on his face: "Uncle, when did Chanchan help you, and did she take the initiative to help my uncle solve his internal crisis?"

Luo Qingzhou: "..."

"Miss Bailing, don't eat too much, and study more."

Luo Qingzhou rolled his eyes at her, then handed the silver in his hand forward and said: "Miss Xia Chan, return your silver."

The bag of broken silver last time must have been saved bit by bit by this girl.

It was still very sad and touching when I watched her take out the last piece of broken silver from her pocket.

So he paid interest today.

Xia Chan stared at the small money bag in his hand for a while, but did not take it. She turned and left, walked to the pavilion over there and stood holding her sword, looking at the lotus leaves in the pond outside the pavilion, motionless.

Luo Qingzhou was startled for a moment, then he had to follow him with the silver again and said: "Miss Xia Chan, I borrowed this silver from you, not asked for it from you, so you must take it."

With that said, he reached over and stuffed it into her belt.

Xia Chan twisted her body, clenched the sword in her hand, turned sideways and looked at him, her eyes were cold, and she said: "No..."

Luo Qingzhou wondered: "Why? You should have saved this money bit by bit with hard work, right? How can you not want it?"

"The reward is yours."

The girl said coldly, with no expression on her pretty face.

Luo Qingzhou: "???"

"Reward me?"

He was stunned for a few seconds and suddenly understood: "Is it because of what happened that night?"
