Poor Lady Chapter 78: Missing


Qi Surong slowly opened his eyes, the injuries on his body had been treated, looking at the humble room in front of him, it felt like a world away.

"Little lady, are you awake?" The door was opened, and an old man in simple clothes walked in, with a fluttering white beard, standing against the light, like a Buddha in the world.

When Qi Surong saw this person, tears welled up in his eyes.

It's a master, really a master.

"Oh, why are you crying?" Yun Youzi touched his wrinkled face and asked in confusion, "Could it be that the old man accidentally showed his original shape and scared you?"

Qi Surong chuckled, the master was still as unreliable as ever.

"Crying and laughing, silly." Yun Youzi muttered, "Isn't it a fool who the old man brought back?"

"Master." Qi Surong struggled to sit up and bowed, "Surong thank you for saving my life."

Yun Youzi waved his hand and said, "Okay, I don't like to see other people come and worship."

"Okay, listen to the master." Qi Surong straightened up, looked at Yun Youzi and smiled.

Yun Youzi put down the bamboo basket on his back: "You little woman is so weird, you don't care about your body when you wake up?"

"I feel that as long as the master is there, there is nothing to worry about." The moment she saw the master, she really felt at ease like never before.

"You know the old man?" Yun Youzi looked at her suspiciously.

Qi Surong said with a smile: "I think I have a predestined relationship with the master, maybe we knew each other in the previous life."

"Haha, is that so?" Yun Youzi said with great interest, "I must have been a good person in my previous life, otherwise how could I have met a girl like you?"

"Yes, master is the kindest."

"Don't embarrass this old man." Yun Youzi quickly waved his hand and said, "This old man told you that your physical condition is not very good, you are weak and have old diseases. Although you usually pay attention to recuperating, you are too worried. The root cause of the disease is hard to cure.”

"Can Master help me cure it?"

"The old man is busy, I will write you a prescription later, you can figure it out yourself."

"Okay." Qi Surong nodded obediently.

"Well, not bad." Yun Youzi packed the things in the bamboo basket one by one, turned and walked out of the house.

Qi Surong hurriedly followed, walked out the door, and found that the outside was already a vast expanse of whiteness, and overnight, the ground was covered with a layer of white snow. The cold wind was blowing, and she couldn't help shivering.

Seeing Yun Youzi picking up the broom to sweep the snow, Qi Surong stepped forward and said, "Master, let me do it."

Yun Youzi glanced at her: "Let you come? What can you do with your hands?"

Qi Surong looked at her bandaged fingers, laughed at herself, and almost forgot that her hand was injured.

"Master, can you do me a favor?"

"What's busy?"

"Save my husband, he was poisoned and his life is dying."

"Don't save, don't save." Yun Youzi dropped the broom, turned around and left.

Qi Surong didn't chase after him, but just shouted at his back: "If you don't save me, I'll stay here."

Yun Youzi disappeared into the village without looking back.

Qi Surong inquired around, this is Yanwei Village, about 50 miles away from Luocheng, Yunyouzi just settled here from Linshan two days ago, happened to meet Qi Surong who fainted on the way.

She wrote a letter and asked the villagers to go to the inn where Gu Jinyun was staying. Even if he has already left, he should arrange for someone to stay behind. I hope Jinyun is safe...

One day ago, Gu Jinyun watched Qi Surong being kidnapped, and almost went crazy. After repelling the two masked men, he rushed out of the inn immediately, but by the time he chased them out, they had already disappeared. He returned to the inn, leaving one person waiting for news, and then led the others to follow.

The masked man who kidnapped Qi Surong ran in a hurry, leaving many traces along the way. Gu Jinyun and his team chased all the way, and finally caught up with a remote ancient house at dawn. However, there was no one in the old house, only a blood-stained room was found.

Gu Jinyun picked up a rag of clothes on the ground, his face was terribly gloomy. When Su Rong was taken away, he was only wearing a thin coat, the texture of which was exactly the same as the rags in his hands. The bed was in a mess, fragments of the vase were scattered all over the place, and the blood stains remained for no more than three hours. It was difficult for him to comfort himself that Su Rong was safe and sound.

Gripping the rag in his hand tightly, Gu Jinyun couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood, his muscles convulsed, and he fell to his knees suddenly.

"Master!" The six sons rushed forward and hurriedly supported him.

Gu Jinyun closed his eyes, took out a jade pendant from his bosom, handed it to the six sons, and ordered: "Go to the nearest Gu's shop, let them secretly look for the trace of the lady, and send someone to pay attention to Feng Zhan's movements. Don't let go of the wind and grass."

After saying this, Gu Jinyun fell straight to the ground and fell into a coma.

Gu Jinyun, who fell into a coma, kept having nightmares, and heard Su Rong calling for help again and again, but he could only search around in the dark like a headless fly. Thinking of the hurt and humiliation she might suffer, he couldn't breathe.

For the first time, he clearly realized that he was too weak to protect the woman he loved. He is not afraid of business losses and troubles, as long as the foundation remains, he can make a comeback. What should be given up is given up, he will not hesitate in the slightest. But he forgot that his enemy is not the common people, but a powerful party, no matter how he retreats and guards against it, it will be difficult to contend with it.

Su Rong was taken away by someone, even if he knew who did it, without any evidence, could he go and rob him openly? cannot.

Feng Zhan can completely imprison Su Rong, unless he doesn't care about the safety of his family, otherwise he can only swallow his anger for the time being and let him possess his woman, and then wait for an opportunity to take revenge.

This will be a long process, but Gu Jinyun can't bear it even for a moment. Su Rong belongs to him alone, and he does not allow anyone to defile it!

He opened his eyes suddenly, drenched in sweat. Gu Jinyun felt some bumps under his body, and found himself in the carriage.

"Six sons." He sat up and called out of the car.

"Young master, are you finally awake?" The sixth son opened the curtain and quickly jumped into the carriage.

"Where is this going?"

"Yanwei Village." Liu Zi replied with a smile.

"Yanwei Village?" Gu Jinyun looked at him suspiciously.

Liu Zi took out a letter from his arms and explained: "We received a letter from Madam yesterday. She is currently in Yanwei Village, and she has also found Yun Youzi, so we can rush to meet her."

Gu Jinyun's eyes lit up, but after quickly looking at the letter, a big stone finally fell from his heart.

Great, she's all right. Although he doesn't know why she appeared in Yanwei Village, as long as she is safe, he has nothing to ask for.

Gu Jinyun ordered the driver to speed up and arrive at Yanwei Village as soon as possible.

On the other side, Qi Surong was very happy when he received the news that Gu Jinyun was coming to Yanwei Village. He stood outside the door and kept looking around, waiting eagerly.

However, one day passed, and Gu Jinyun did not arrive as scheduled.

Qi Surong thought to himself, maybe he was delayed on the road, but he should arrive tomorrow.

However, another day passed, and Gu Jinyun was still missing.

Qi Surong felt a little uneasy, and ran to the entrance of the village with her injuries, waiting bitterly in the cold wind.

Three or four days later, Qi Surong finally confirmed that something happened to Gu Jinyun. She asked someone to go to the inn again to inquire about the news, only to learn that the person who had stayed behind had left, and it was when she received the news that Gu Jinyun was leaving for Yanwei Village. Obviously, they should have had an accident on the way to Yanwei Village.

Could it be Feng Zhan's tricks again? Qi Surong was flustered and didn't know what to do. I'm afraid the master won't stay in Yanwei Village for a long time. Once he leaves, it will be difficult to find someone again. She couldn't invite the master, so she could only follow him. But in this way, how should she inquire about Jin Yun's news?

For the current plan, it seems that they can only confess everything to the father-in-law and let them send someone to find Jin Yun's whereabouts.

"I hope you are safe and well, Jin Yun." Qi Surong prayed to the sky with her palms together, and then went to find her master.

When Yun Youzi saw her, he immediately ran away. Qi Surong grabbed him quickly and pleaded: "Master, human life is at stake, you must save me."

"Your life is still long, don't you need the old man to save you?"

"My husband's whereabouts are unknown now, I have to go home and find someone to help, will you come back with me?"

"What is the old man going back with you?"

"I'm penniless, so I have to ask Master to help me pay for the trip."

Yun Youzi looked at her tangledly: "Does this old man look like a rich man?"

"Although you are not a rich person, the small toll should not be a problem for your old man."

"Don't come here." Yun Youzi waved his hand, "I'm not taking advantage of you, I will definitely not give you travel expenses."

Qi Surong glared at him and said, "Master, did you say that you are a good person before? This is not helpful at all."

"If you say what you want, I won't help you." Yun Youzi straightened his clothes and strode out.

Qi Surong followed step by step: "Master, if you don't help, I will go to the ends of the earth with you, eat your food, drink your food, use your food, and recite the Three Character Classic for you every day."

"My heart is like a snake and a scorpion." Yun Youzi clicked his tongue, but his footsteps did not slow down at all.

"Master—" Qi Surong called out in a long voice.

Yun Youzi covered his forehead, and said weakly: "Okay, the old man will give you a few taels of silver, why don't you hurry back?"

"Master, can you rest assured that I'm a woman walking alone?" Qi Surong persisted, "If something goes wrong on my road, won't you feel guilty?"

"Looking at your vicious appearance, what could go wrong?"

"Master, I don't have the power to restrain a chicken, how can I be so vicious?" Qi Surong continued his verbal offensive, "Besides, if you lend me the travel expenses, I have to pay for it? You go with me, and I entrust you to take care of me on the way. After I go back, I will definitely Delicious food and drink for you."

"Hmph, I'm not rare."

"You are not rare, I am rare!" Qi Surong said with a smile, "Anyway, you like to travel around, so why not make the next stop in the capital?"

"The old man only likes to put his love on the mountains and rivers, and doesn't like the noisy market."

"Master, the capital is not noisy at all."

"Hmph, the capital city is about to be turned upside down, isn't there any noise?"

Qi Surong's heart skipped a beat, could it be that the master has already noticed the situation in the capital? Several princes fought fiercely, and it is estimated that within a year or two, the throne will change hands.

It may not be a good thing for her to go back now. Not only that, it's better for the Gu family to hide away temporarily. It's a pity that her father was banned by the emperor not to leave Beijing, otherwise he should stay away from the place of right and wrong in time.

Qi Surong thought for a while, and decided to send someone to send a letter to Gu Yufeng, asking him to secretly search for Jinyun's whereabouts. When the time is right, tell your father-in-law about it.

She rubbed her forehead and tried her best to keep calm, firmly believing that Jin Yun must still be alive. She couldn't get herself into trouble and drag the entire Gu family into danger.

But she has to be anxious, because Jin Yun only has one month left.

Jin Yun, where are you now?

The author has something to say: finally a turning point...
