Chapter 11: Poison

Pei Gu called Banxia to make a pot of tea, but he put it on the small table and didn't move a sip for a long time. After passing the dinner, when I went down, only half a bowl of porridge was missing.

Banxia looked at the food on the table, and silently ate most of it according to Pei Gu's usual preferences before letting the girl withdraw.

There was something wrong with the prince on the way back, and it was even more abnormal after returning home, if he knew that the prince hadn't even eaten a few bites of dinner, God knows what would happen.

The atmosphere between the Yang family and the prince is always very strange, the voice is greasy, and the clothes are bright, which is not like the relationship between mother and son at all.

Pei Gu saw that Banxia was about to retreat silently, called out to him, found a rosewood box, then lit a lantern and went to the small mourning hall at the back of the house.

The candle flame is faint, and the wind blows through the hall as if it is about to be blown out. The navy blue tent hung heavily on the ground. On the side of the case, there is a tablet for the mother, engraved with the mother's name, and the incense melons and fruits are enshrined, and the finishing is still very clean.

Pei Gu knelt down silently, and Banxia stood outside the door with a lantern.

The long-standing hatred had become a burden on him, sinking him deep into the abyss of darkness like a quagmire.

When a person is quiet, pain will always torment him endlessly. His mother died so aggrieved, and he was incapable of protecting her body.

It was even burned clean with a fire, and even the ashes were barely left.

He only left a white hosta in the panic.

Carved with a lotus pattern out of the water, noble and elegant, like the mother's plain appearance, often silent and silent, but warm as a spring breeze. When he memorized and wrote in the study, his mother would bring him handmade pastries, osmanthus crisp, gourd cake, and a bowl of lotus seed soup or yam porridge.

The taste is sweet. When his mother visited him in the study, he was always the happiest at that age, and I don't know if he especially liked the plates of snacks, or the sound of his mother smiling and telling him to take care of his body, or the faint fragrance of tea on his mother's body, which made his chaotic brain clear up immediately.

When I sit in the Bamboo Pavilion and read a book, I often wander and think, "When will my mother come back to make snacks and send them over for supper?" but when I see that the Bamboo Pavilion is completely different from my own house, I will be lost for a long time.

The boy has tears and doesn't flick.

But once I thought that I would never see my mother's warm smile again, I would never smell the sweet tea fragrance on her body, and I would never be able to taste the pastry soup she made by herself.

He secretly cried once in the night, and then made a wooden box with a knife with his own hands, put the white hosta in it, buried it in the bamboo hall, carved a monument, and erected a mound, so that there was finally a place to worship his mother.

It was also at that time that Nuan Nuan came to the Silent Valley with Uncle Shi.

The little girl is simple-minded, has a sweet smile, and her unscrupulous children's words can always amuse them. Like a little sun, almost all the hardships and pains in his heart were wiped out.

At that time, Nuan Nuan was only more than five years old, kind-hearted, she secretly ran to the back of the Bamboo Pavilion to play with him, but found him silently looking down at his mother's tombstone. Probably realizing that the atmosphere was particularly heavy, or perhaps recognizing some words on the tombstone, she stood quietly aside and asked him gently, "Is this Senior Brother Pei's relatives?"

"It's one of my mother's hairpins. ”

"Why hairpins?"

"Because I couldn't protect her, she left only a hairpin. ”

"Senior Brother Pei, the festival mourns smoothly. She crouched down beside him and gently spoke out to persuade him.

It's just a five-year-old child, and you can actually feel the heaviness in his heart. He seemed to be able to suddenly let go of his disguise, and his voice choked up, "But I don't have a mother anymore, and I saw her being been"

He resisted the sourness in his eyes and did not shed tears.

The little girl reached out and touched his face, and handed him a purse containing a jasper safety buckle, with a delicate and beautiful vein.

"This is what my mother gave me when I went out with my father. She said that with this peace by my side, my mother was by my side. Senior Brother Pei's mother is gone, so take this peace buckle to accompany Senior Brother Pei. As he spoke, he hung the peace buckle on him, "In this way, my mother will always be with Senior Brother Pei." ”

He suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, but he felt inexplicably ironed in his heart.

Later, she also picked flowers in the valley and placed them in front of her mother's clothed mound.

"Senior Brother Pei's mother must be very beautiful, if I pick flowers for her, she will definitely like it!"

Sometimes it's a begonia, sometimes it's a few bright red peaches, or a white jade pear blossom with dewdrops.

The lonely mound was slowly becoming less desolate and miserable, and his heart was generally like the calm and tranquility of the sun after a storm. He was finally able to slowly step out of the shadow of the shadow of the underworld, and quietly immersed himself in learning the various experiences taught by his master.

Nuan Nuan often accompanies them in her spare time, humming softly, and sometimes even laughing when she closes her eyes and hears the sound of the wind and birds.

Nuan Nuan used to be such an innocent girl!

He nearly killed her.

If he hadn't put "Leaving Human Blood" on the big table in the study to play with, and left in a hurry to forget to take it away, how could Nuan Nuan accidentally ingest poison.

The appearance of "leaving human blood" is fresh and translucent, and the color is very similar to the grape wine imported from the Western Regions to the Central Plains.

Nuan Nuan went to him as usual, wanted to see him practice, and asked him what Mrs. Qiwu had said, but he was not there, but he forgot the "tears of leaving people" on the table.

When he came back two or three quarters of an hour later, she was lying on his desk and sleeping, and there was a big crooked writing next to her, and he was laughing and about to wake her up, but he found that the red liquid in the crystal bottle containing "human blood" was mostly missing!

He panicked and was ashamed to pick up Nuan Nuan and ran to Mrs. Qiwu's Lantai, Cai Qiong's pale face, Yi Kite was surprised and immediately ran to the pharmacy to get the pills for emergency detoxification, Mrs. Qiwu's gloomy face was about to drip water, and the third uncle immediately calmly sealed Nuan Nuan's meridians after hearing the situation, and his fingers trembled slightly.

He still remembers.

Legend has it that "Leaving Human Blood" was made by a woman who was skilled in pharmacology, and she was betrayed by her lover and was angry, so she mixed various precious poisons obtained from traveling all her life. The medicine primer is the blood of the fingertips and the blood of the heart, and the poison is true and pure, so the color is bright red, bright and translucent, and it looks like the best grape wine in the Western Regions.

But that's just a legend.

As far as he knows, "Leaving Human Blood" is made of more than a dozen kinds of highly poisonous flowers, plants, insects and beasts, which grow in different places in the southeast, south, northwest, or abyss, or the top of the extreme north mountain, or the cliff beach of the South China Sea, or the dangerous mountain of the plateau, the medicinal properties are not very compatible, so the medicinal properties are very strong and ferocious. It is also the use of herbs that can be solved by these poisons one by one to disrupt the order and dosage mixed with the effect of the medicine, and once it appears a single poisonous phase, and then it seems to be a great good. If it is a coincidence, this single sign of poisoning will disappear, but the residual poison has not yet been resolved; if it is not coincidental, it will not be blessed, and the wrong medicine will be wrong, but it will force other poisons out, so "leaving human blood" is an extremely hateful and difficult poison

However, if you want to detoxify, although Mrs. Fang Ziqiwu and her master Tu Anqing, who dispensed the medicine, have already tried out the medicinal materials used one by one, the poison of a single plant, and how the herbs of a single plant are prepared, what is the dosage, and what is the order, are stumped for them.

So at that time, there was no cure for "tears from people"!
