Chapter 349 Lotus Tower 8
Ling Xi looked at the girl he bumped into. Seeing her frail body, he couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Girl, are you okay?"
Qiao Wanwan heard a gentle voice and looked up, only to find that the person who bumped into her was the girl she saw at noon.
The closer they got, Qiao Wanwan felt that this girl was really pretty.
A bright and charming face, delicate features, beautiful and bright eyebrows, skin as white as snow, so delicate that not a single pore can be seen, gorgeous and elegant, pure and smooth like ice and jade, shining like a pearl and as flawless as jade, making people reluctant to take their eyes off her.
She was wearing a light blue outfit, which made her look graceful and ethereal.
Humans are visual animals, and the first thing they notice is always appearance.
Therefore, when she saw Ling Xi's appearance, Qiao Wanwan immediately felt a liking for her.
Hearing the other party's caring greeting, she shook her head gently, but couldn't help coughing again. She couldn't help but cover her chest and showed a painful look.
Ling Xi's hand inadvertently rested on the wrist of the girl in front of him and took her pulse.
After a while, she moved her hand away, and had a general understanding of her condition.
He was born with asthma and had been weak since childhood, relying on all kinds of precious medicinal herbs to treat his condition.
If this continues, you won't die, but your lifespan will be shortened.
After Qiao Wan finished coughing, she opened her hazy eyes and said to Ling Xi: "Thank you, young lady. I'm fine."
Ling Xi's expression eased: "That's good, girl, please take good care of yourself."
Qiao Wanwan: "Thank you, young lady."
For some reason, Qiao Wanwan always had a good impression of Ling Xi.
It is a natural liking for someone, without any reason or conditions. As long as you meet that person, you will fall in love with him or her.
Ling Xi smiled lightly, with the corners of her mouth raised: "Miss, you are welcome."
On the side, Li Xiangyi finally couldn't help it.
He grabbed Ling Xi's wrist and gently scratched the palm of Ling Xi's hand with his fingers, causing a tingling sensation.
He smiled and urged: "Axi, let's go quickly."
Ling Xi could never refuse Li Xiangyi's smile. After all, who would refuse a young man's sincere smile?
"I understand, Xiangyi, don't be anxious." Ling Xi was helpless.
Then, Ling Xi looked at Qiao Wanwan with a kind expression: "Miss, we'll see each other again if we're lucky."
A feeling of loss flashed through Qiao Wanwan's heart: "See you again if we are destined to."
Seeing that Ling Xi had finally finished talking to Qiao Wanwan, Li Xiangyi grabbed Ling Xi's wrist and walked away quickly, even using the light skill Posa Step.
One third of the world is bright on moonlit nights, and two thirds of the scoundrels are in Yangzhou.
When the lights come on, the nightlife in Yangzhou city begins.
The city of Yangzhou at night is even more beautiful.
The night market is brightly lit and as bustling as day, with crowds of people flowing like endless streams of water.
Ling Xi and Li Xiangyi walked along the long street and bought anything they saw that looked good.
This night market has more stalls than the daytime ones, and many small items are only available at the night market.
The two of them walked along the long street covered with lights. People passed by from time to time. Some were local people, and some were literati who came here to visit because they admired the beautiful scenery of Yangzhou City.
Thousands of lights illuminate the green clouds. In the tall buildings on both sides of the long street, there is endless singing and the sounds of piano, flute and pipe are melodious and lingering.
On some tall buildings there stand beautiful women with beautiful makeup on. They are as pretty as flowers and as beautiful as jade. They are the land of gentleness.
Not long after Li Xiangyi appeared on the long street, he received many exquisite sachets, colorful flowers, and scented handkerchiefs. They were all given by the girls standing upstairs on both sides. Each of them had a teasing smile on their face, without any malice, just to show their appreciation for the good-looking young man.
Li Xiangyi held a sachet, flowers and a handkerchief, and the strong fragrance made his nose hurt.
He couldn't help but sneeze, and acted coquettishly to Ling Xi, with a rather aggrieved tone: "A Xi, how long should I hold them? These things are too fragrant."
Ling Xi smiled and said, "After all, it's a token of love from the girls. If you don't want to hold it, just find a piece of cloth to wrap it up. In short, don't throw it away casually and don't ruin the kindness of those girls."
Li Xiangyi pursed his lips and showed an unhappy expression.
He didn't want the affection from these women. If these things were given by Ah Xi, he would hang the sachet around his waist every day, even if it smelled fragrant.
But the key point is, these things were not delivered by Axi.
He doesn't want anything given by others, he only wants something given by Axi.
"Then Ah Xi, I'll go buy some cloth and wrap them up. You wait here for me, I'll be back soon."
Ling Xi's eyes curved: "Okay, I'll wait for you here."
Li Xiangyi quickly passed the crowd and went away.
Ling Xi was waiting there, but when he turned around, he saw two men sneaking in with a woman on their backs at the corner of an alley not far away, their movements were very furtive.
The woman lay unconscious on the man's back, her eyes closed, and unconscious.
More importantly, Ling Xi blinked. That woman seemed to be the sickly beauty she bumped into before leaving the inn?
Traffickers?
This word immediately flashed through Ling Xi's mind, and then he followed without hesitation.
Entering that remote alley, it was pitch black inside, nothing like the bright lights outside.
As he got closer, Ling Xi heard the conversation between the two men.
"Brother, this is a really good product today, a beautiful lady, this order will definitely make a lot of money."
"Nonsense, why do you think I spent so much effort to capture her? Today I saw two extremely beautiful women. Let's go capture the other one some other day."
Listening to the conversation between the two of them, Ling Xi was furious.
These two people, who trafficked women and children, deserve to die.
The type of people she hates the most are human traffickers.
People like this shouldn't live in this world.
Without waiting for them to continue talking, Ling Xi walked out.
Her eyes were extremely cold, as if she was looking at two dead people: "Unfortunately, you don't have this opportunity anymore."
When the two men saw Ling Xi, they were shocked at first, but then they became overjoyed when they saw Ling Xi's appearance.
"Brother, it's a beautiful lady!"
The two looked at each other, with malicious smiles in their eyes.
Unfortunately, before they could do anything, Ling Xi knocked them to the ground in a few moves and stepped on one of them in the stomach.
Ling Xi placed his sword across one of the men's necks and asked, "Tell me, where are the other women you abducted?"
Looking at the sharp white sword light on his neck, the man trembled all over: "Lady, spare my life, lady, spare my life."
Ling Xi was a little impatient: "Answer my question."
The man quickly replied, "We don't know either. My two brothers are only responsible for preparing the people. As for the rest, others will do it. As for where to sell it, we have no idea."
It’s still a human trafficking gang, with Ling Xisi as the background.
