Chapter Three Errors(2/2)

Li Bai reached out and held him, but found that his hands were shaking.

"I'm sorry, my legs are a little weak." Xun Qing held up his body in a mess, but couldn't. He squatted on the ground and panted, suppressing his choking urge: "I, I..."

"Go and rest first, don't think so much." Li Bai patted his shoulder: "Sleep for a night, everything will be fine."

"We'll look for the highest-end inn and the softest bed." Li Bai shook the silver in his hand.

Xun Qing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's very troublesome to have the seal of Dali Temple on the road. There is no good place to live in. You may not be able to spend this money."

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Go to my house... the place is very small, don't worry about it."

"Just have a bed." Li Bai smiled back.

It is not in line with the gorgeous and gorgeous Chang'an. It is hard to imagine that such a city will have such dark and cramped corners. In the gaps between the layers of vast buildings, sewage flows across the river.

Some of the dilapidated buildings on both sides of the alley were still lit with dim light, as well as the crying of babies and the barking of dogs. After the noisy sound faded, the silence returned to death.

Even patrolers are reluctant to come to such places.

It is hard to imagine that there is actually a workshop here.

"Why live here?" Li Bai looked around: "Aren't the institution's teacher very profitable? Besides, the houses outside are not expensive, right?"

"I just became an institution teacher not long ago and owed a lot of money. Besides, the location of each market is limited, and I don't have enough people to live in. We homeless survivors can only live in such a corner, or they can only go to Huaiyuanfang to sleep in Datongpu... This workshop was left to me before my teacher passed away. If I hadn't been lucky enough to be admitted to the institution teacher, I might have been taken away."

Xun Qing rummaged through for a long time and finally found the key. After opening the door, a stream of moldy dust swelled up to his face.

Li Bai lit the candle and saw several machinery and equipment covered with dust-proof felt cloth, as well as mountains of machinery parts, semi-finished products, and even a huge machinery and arm as thick as a beam...

He watched curiously and found a huge mechanical man who was dismantled, as if he was a dead giant. His chest was wide open, but there were no internal organs inside, but one steel organ after another.

But many of them are incomplete and are obviously semi-finished.

"What's this?"

“…things left by the teacher.”

Xun Qing sighed, "He has been studying this before he passed away. Once he saw the legendary scene of a celestial master catching ghosts in a night trip, and he kept thinking about copying such a mechanism.

But after spending so much effort, I refused to install a core of the mechanism. In the end, I wasted my efforts and thought about this semi-finished product before I died... As a result, my lifelong efforts turned into jokes in the circle."

"Where is ridiculous?" Li Bai shook his head and asked seriously: "I have been there quite a few places along the way. This thing looks a bit powerful... I just say that it is so high, it must be very strong when moving, right?"

"Then you have to be able to move. Without the core of the organ, how can the organs move? The strange story of catching wind and shadow like a genius master of the organs does not exist at all... After all, it is impossible to make such a lively work without relying on the core of the organs."

Xun Qing said halfway, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head: "Sorry, I said a lot of things you don't understand."

"No, it's obviously very powerful."

Li Bai asked in confusion: "Why are you so harsh to yourself? Xun Qing? It's already amazing to be admitted to the institution at your age."

"It's all the blessings of Yu Yin and Dao Xuan Gong, so where do I have my skills?"

Xun Qing shook his head, pulled it for a long time, and finally pulled down the ladder upstairs. A sound of collision and countless dust spilled down like rain, making him look dirty and choked.

"Come with me, the place I live is upstairs. I'll help you clean up first... You can take a shower first. I just checked it and the water stove can still be used."

"Hey, Xun Qing."

Li Bai suddenly called him.

Upstairs, Xun Qing turned around blankly and saw Li Bai's serious expression: "Don't be sad, that's not your fault."

Xun Qing was stunned for a moment, forced a smile and nodded.

The narrow room was cleaned very clean, obviously not prepared for guests to stay overnight. The sheets and bedding were a little old, but it could be seen that the pulp was washed very clean and well preserved, and it was not moldy.

Xun Qing cleaned up very quickly, and it was hard to imagine that a man was so quick to handle housework. The water boiler he made was also very useful, and it was not troublesome to take a bath or drink water.

But Li Bai still tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

I finally slept for a while, but I still woke up in the middle of the night and heard the vague sound of the wind.

When he got up and opened the door, he saw that the windows were wide open in the narrow corridor. Xun Qing's room was empty and there was no one.

That guy didn't know where he went.

When Li Bai looked out of the window, he saw the young man sitting on the roof. He stared blankly into the distance, as if he was sleepwalking.

The gorgeous lights of the distant city fell far away, illuminating his empty pupils.

Hearing the sound of Li Bai turning over, he turned around in confusion and saw the young man's smile. Li Bai reached into his arms, took out a wine pot like magic, shook it twice, and the sound of water came from inside.

"Can't sleep? Do you want to drink? I have a little more here, it's cheaper for you."

Xun Qing was stunned and subconsciously wanted to shake his head.

But after Li Bai raised his head and took a big mouthful, he handed over the wine pot. The soft fragrance of wine came to his nose, with the intoxication that dissolved the pain.

Can't refuse.

But it was so soft that the fragrance was so sharp and strong in the mouth. It scraped the throat, as if it was swallowing a piece of red charcoal fire, which made Xun Qing choke violently.

"Oh, this is the burning iron in the clouds. You can even pour a cow into it in one bite. Didn't you expect you to be so generous?"

Li Bai pretended to sigh, but his face showed a smile of a prank that succeeded in his prank.

Too childish.

How old are you?

Xun Qing sighed helplessly, but soon, he felt a trance.

The lights in the distance became blurred, and the heavy blocks separated by the heart seemed to disappear. It seemed that this cold world suddenly abandoned him in place and banged forward, and the pain and sadness also moved away.

But for some reason, I couldn't help but cry again.

Just like seeing the innocent dead beggar again, Xun Qing covered his face and repented from the bottom of his heart for his "successful actions".

"They came for me...must be for me. Sorry, sorry, I shouldn't have stole things, if I...if I..."

"If you don't take it, there will be more victims." Li Bai shook his head: "You can't reason with the evil people, and you shouldn't attribute the death of that child to your responsibility.

Besides, he wants to save us..."

"Why exactly?"

Xun Qing covered his face and choked and whined, "That child is so cold, but he doesn't have alcohol... I just... I just want that child to drink some hot soup..."

"I originally wanted to help him, I obviously..."

"I know."

He heard the voice beside him.

When Xun Qing turned around, he saw the boy under the moonlight looking at him and told him: "Because I am the same."

He was stunned.

"If you are wrong in helping others, then you are definitely not the one who is wrong, and I am." Li Bai said softly, "But I have never made any mistakes, so it must be the ones who are wrong."

"Someone must have made a mistake, Xun Qing."

The boy stared at the distant city, pressing the hilt of his sword, as if he was looking at his own enemy, and murmured softly: "We are going to find him."

Such calm words are so firm, just like a sword blade slashing, tearing apart the confusion and pain.

Only clear results remain.

Xun Qing raised his head and drank all the bad wine in the pot. For the first time in his life, he raised the pot high above his head.
