Chapter 9: The Cat at Night, Stealing People's Hearts
The night was unusually quiet, and the wind outside the window could be vaguely heard, and in the room, Yan'er was making the bed, but Tianhao lifted the scroll in his hand lightly, sometimes frowning, sometimes soothing, obviously not understanding something, and then the mouth suddenly opened.
"This fragment is a bit difficult!" said after reading it for a long time, and after a little understanding, he frowned.
Of course, the fragment is worn, or following Jiang Sheng for many years, the corners of the book have become round, and there are a few holes in the spine, if it is not fixed with hemp rope, it may have become a loose page, like toilet paper, but the few words on the cover of the book are eye-catching: "Pharmacology Miscellaneous Diseases." ”。
After watching for a while, maybe he was tired, he leaned back on the chair and took out the nine-curved silver needle given by Jiang Sheng, the silver needle was warm, obviously there was heat in his arms, so he got rid of the coolness.
"Weng~" gently threw out the silver needle, but it was firmly rooted in the wooden window.
"This silver needle is suitable for use as a hidden weapon, hidden in the cuffs, and self-defense can work wonders!" Tianhao said secretly. If Jiang Sheng knew that his medical silver needle was actually used for self-defense, he might faint and vomit blood on the spot.
"Bang dang~" There was a sound downstairs, obviously something was knocked over, and there was no one downstairs, could it be that this Thirty-sixth Lane was really haunted?
"Yan'er, I'll go down and take a look!" said the young man, clenching the blade of the sword in his hand and walking downstairs.
"Hmm!" said Murphy as she straightened her clothes.
It was dark downstairs, the moonlight shone in, you could vaguely see a few pieces of ash on the table, the window swayed back and forth, making a squeaky sound, and the wind blew in, but there was a coolness, the oil lamp on the table was overturned, and the wick pendulum was soaked in the lamp oil, because it was wooden, it was inevitable that it would be burned out of the black hole, obviously not the first time it was overturned!
"Brush~" A shadow swept by, looking extremely agile under the moonlight, and he didn't see what it was, and fled out of the window.
"Squeak~"
Tianhao lit the oil lamp on the table, the room suddenly lit up, a few mice lay on the rice box, nibbling on the rice, the room suddenly lit up, the mice were frightened, bumped around, stumbled, but crashed into the mouse hole!
"Ah, it's a couple of mice!" he cleaned the rice from the rice box and went upstairs again.
"A few rats gnawed on the rice box, probably the rats climbed on the wooden table and knocked over the oil lamp, so it made a sound!" The young man went upstairs, and Yan'er made a pot of tea, and when he saw him enter the door, he poured half a cup of tea in the teacup, and there were desserts on the table, which were obviously placed by Yan'er during his descent downstairs.
"I didn't expect that this kind of restaurant would also have rats stealing rice!" said Yin'er, who was smiling, not knowing whether she was laughing at the funny of the rats stealing rice or thinking about something else.
"When I went out, the master didn't give much silver taels, only these ten taels of silver, it is estimated that after paying the rent at the end of this month, there may not be much left!"
"I also spent two on candy today!" Mourner picked up the two copper coins in the box, looked at them for a long time, and kicked the remaining five copper coins into his pocket.
"Here, you can save some money!" Mourning divided the string of copper coins into two parts, hesitated, and handed one of them to the young man.
"Ah~"
"You take it, go out and buy something if you want to eat, this fifty yuan master will only give it once a month, and it can be regarded as a large amount, and it is enough!" she put the rest into the box, covered the box, and put it under the pillow.
"The human body is divided into yin and yang, pharmacology is medical science, and if yin and yang are uneven, the body is not clear........." The young man was fascinated by it, and picked up a piece of dessert casually, and wanted to enter it.
"Meow~" The window was not closed, and a black shadow rushed over and swallowed the dessert in the young man's hand.
"Huh~" Yan'er exclaimed.
If you don't look carefully, you think it's a white fox, there are burnt marks on the left paw, the skin and flesh are a little tight, and the tail is cute, but because of the three pinches of water-shaped hair on the forehead, it seems to have the meaning of a holy thing.
Yan'er gently picked up the wild cat and stroked it along the white hair, and the cat stuffed its head into Yan'er's arms, looking very intimate.
"The hauntings they call can't have anything to do with this cat, right?" wondered how a single cat could leave an entire alley uninhabited.
"Maybe!" Tianhao was not angry, although the cat ate his dessert, but seeing such a state with Yan'er, a burst of warmth rose in his heart.
"It's hurt, I'll go and bandage it!" said Yin'er, who walked to the bedside, cut the light yarn into strips, cleaned the burnt miscellaneous hair a little with scissors, took out a bottle of medicine from his arms, applied it lightly, and then wrapped it finely with the light yarn.
"I didn't expect you to understand this!" Tianhao was shocked.
"Master is kind, since I was a child, I have traveled the world with Master, and I often see animals injured, Master is afraid of trouble, so he configures this medicine, and I have forgotten what the name is. She scratched her head.
"Now I have to feed this little guy again, I don't know if the money is enough!" Mourner put the cat on the bed, opened the wooden box again, and counted it again.
"I'll go out tomorrow to have a look, maybe I can exchange some money for the healing technique taught by Uncle Jiang!" Tianhao picked up the scroll again and began to read.
Yan'er also had a companion, sitting at the head of the bed and playing with the cat, but she didn't know that there was a pair of eyes in the attic outside the window looking into the room, staring closely at this person and a cat.
"Wolf girl, but it's the best!" the corner of the man's mouth twitched, and he looked extremely excited under the moonlight, as if he was staring at his prey.
There are wolves in the world, they all say that wolves are cold-blooded, among tens of thousands of wolves, a wolf king can be born, as for the wolf king, and the wolf king will be born in the body wolf beads, but like a cultivator, the birth of a thousand years can be transformed, as for the body, most of the cases will choose the human form, the life span of people is very short, ordinary people at most a hundred years, but it is also advantageous, that is, the cultivation speed is extremely fast, the wolf turns into a human, it is a werewolf, although it is a human form, but many wolf characteristics still exist, including wolf beads, wolves lose pearls will die, but wolf beads are the best in medicine, wolves, The pearl of the wolf girl, but also contains the characteristics of people and wolves, so the medicinal properties are extremely powerful, and there are not a few who want to fight for it.
The wolf king and people intermarry with the heavens are not tolerated, will create the wrath of the sky, the birth of a child is more serious, will create a catastrophe, because the pregnant person is a person, therefore, the wolf king and the heirs of the people are even rarer, in the historical records for tens of thousands of years, basically have not heard of the existence of wolves, wolf girls, only exist in legends......
