Chapter 355: Stealing Incense and Stealing Jade
The temperature in the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave at night plummeted, and even though the two hugged each other, they still felt cold.
Lin Chu proposed again under the starlight: "Xiao Jing, let's go into the cave, the cave is definitely not so cold."
Lan Jing poked his head out and looked at the swarthy mouth of the cave. This cave was discovered by Lin Chu by accident, and the entrance of the cave is the size of a person who can climb into it, and the outside of the cave entrance is overgrown with weeds.
At that time, Lin Chu proposed to go in and have a look, but Lan Jing refused. You say, can such a small hole be inhabited by people? It must be a snake nest, maybe a thousand-year-old python or something, so she didn't want to go in if she was killed.
Lan Jing looked at the entrance of the cave and struggled for a while, and then whispered: "It's better not to, if there is a python, neither of us will have enough for it."
Lin Chu also turned his head to look at the mouth of the cave, "I didn't smell the fishy smell, there shouldn't be a big snake in it, if there is really the thousand-year-old python you said, wouldn't it come out and eat us earlier?" ”
Lan Jing still shook his head firmly, "Even if there is no python, there are a few small snakes and the like, which is also terrifying, I don't know if it is a highly venomous snake." ”
Lin Chu sighed helplessly, knowing that he couldn't convince Xiao Jing, so he hugged her into his arms so that the temperature could be passed on.
Perhaps because of the lack of calories due to not eating, Lan Jing went from feeling cold to shivering, and finally confused.
In a trance, she seemed to be back in the corridor of the hospital, and the family members of the patients around her walked around, several of which she recognized.
Suddenly, a familiar voice came, Lan Jing hurriedly turned to look, only to see Xiao Tang walking briskly towards her.
She raised her hand to tell her that she hadn't seen her for a long time, but Xiaotang ignored her, turned around and walked into the nurse's station, followed by the doctor's office.
What's going on? Lan Jing's confused mind couldn't think about it, and he involuntarily followed into the doctor's office.
Several people were gathered around the doctor's office, and from her vantage point, only a few heads were lowered.
She knocked on the door and asked, "What are you doing?"
No one answered her, and she was about to take a few steps closer when the person sitting at the table looked up, and it was exactly what she looked like in modern times.
He has a round face, small eyes, a moderate nose, and two shallow dimples when he laughs.
"Sister Lan, why are you the only one in this travel photo?" Xiao Tang pouted dissatisfiedly.
The person called Sister Lan put away his mobile phone and said with a smile: "It's not enough to see me, what else do you want to watch?"
Xiao Tang sat down on the chair next to him and said with a smile: "Sister Lan, don't you want to admit it, they all saw it, saying that you met a good man during your trip and are about to get married."
Lan Jing looked at her former face in shock, and on that familiar face, she saw an overflowing sense of happiness.
Did she really find a boyfriend? How can it be so unreal?
"I didn't admit it, when you take a break, I'll let him invite you to dinner." Looking at the person who spoke, Lan Jing had a feeling that he didn't know what night it was.
Xiao Tang cheered, and the others also laughed, and the atmosphere was cheerful and harmonious.
"Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing, wake up." The familiar voice penetrated the eardrums, and the scene in front of him suddenly dispersed.
Lan Jing tried to open her eyes to see who was talking to her, why was her voice so anxious? Unfortunately, her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't open them.
Lin Chu was really about to die, it was not yet early in the morning, Xiao Jing couldn't stand it and started to have a fever, what should he do?
After shaking it twice, there was still no way to wake people up, so he quickly took off his clothes and put them on Lan Jing. That's it, Lan Jing still unconsciously shouted cold, and then drilled into Lin Chu's arms.
Lin Chu touched Lan Jing's forehead, and it felt as if it was even hotter. Thinking of something, he hurriedly took off Lan Jing's clothes, then held the person in his arms and covered the clothes again.
The two embraced each other all night.
The next day, Lan Jing, who was in Lin Chu's arms, woke up slowly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw his worried eyes, recalled the anxious voice he heard in a trance, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with me?"
Lin Chu stretched out his hand to cover Lan Jing's forehead, and after feeling that his body temperature was normal, he shook his head lightly, revealing a faint smile.
Lan Jing didn't ask any more questions, looking up at the sky, recalling the dreamlike scene. How nice would it be if that scene was true? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but giggle.
Lin Chu lowered his head and leaned on Lan Jing, and asked in a low voice, "What is so happy?"
Lan Jing didn't answer, raised his hand to hug Lin Chu, and whispered three words in his ear.
Lin Chumeng raised his head and opened his eyes wide in surprise, and looked at Lan Jing with a hot gaze, "Xiao Jing, you, you said, what did you say?" ”
Lan Jing turned his head sideways and grinned again.
"Say it again." Lin Chu leaned his head on Lan Jing's shoulder, his voice sounded weak, and he was very tired, but he still insisted on letting Lan Jing repeat those three words.
"I love you" Lan Jing did as he wished.
The corners of Lin Chu's mouth were hooked, with a smile in his eyes, and he kissed Lan Jing's neck, "Say it again"
Lan Jing pushed him away, stood up and shouted to the valley, "Lin Chu, I... Love... You—" The voice echoed throughout the valley.
Lin Chu looked at Lan Jing with a smile, stood up after a moment and put her clothes on, and said, "We have to find a way to leave here today."
Lan Jing nodded, and naturally looked down, Wu Lihan no longer existed, only an incomplete white bone.
sighed and said, "It doesn't seem to work to go down, there are too many snakes."
Lin Chu looked at the dagger on Lan Jing's waist and said firmly: "I'll open the way in front, you can follow me closely."
"The snake does not distinguish between you and you." Lan Jing wanted to say this, but in order not to worry Lin Chu, he swallowed it stiffly and said with a smile: "Okay"
"Take a break, and we'll leave when the fog clears." After Lin Chu finished speaking, he pulled Lan Jing to the place where he sat last night and sat down.
Lan Jing looked at Lin Chu's dredging under his eyes, a little distressed, patted his thigh and said, "You sleep for a while, I will guard you."
Lin Chu raised a charming smile and nodded slightly, "Xiao Jing, you are so good." As he spoke, he lay down.
Lan Jing placed his hand on his arm and patted it gently, his eyes vigilantly observing his surroundings.
An hour later, Lin Chu's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and then slowly opened.
Lan Jing smiled at him and said, "You're awake."
Lin Chu looked at Lan Jing in confusion, his pure black eyes like obsidian that had been washed with water.
At this time, the first rays of the morning sun had already shone down, and the light hit his face, making his jade-like face shine with a charming luster, luring Lan Jing to steal incense and steal jade.
"Are your legs numb?" Before Lan Jing could make a move, Lin Chu had already sat up, and he looked at Lan Jing's legs with apologies.
"No, no" Lan Jing shook her head again and again, and in order to confirm that she was telling the truth, she stood up with her hands on the ground.
Under Lin Chu's gaze, she spun around in that small place, and after a lap, she spun around again.
"What's wrong?" Lin Chu noticed that Lan Jing had incredulity on his face, and hurriedly walked over and asked.
Lan Jing stood at the entrance of the cave, looking sideways at Lin Chu, the surprise on her face had not yet dissipated, and she said, "A strong wind just now blew out of the cave."
Lin Chu frowned, although he couldn't feel the wind now, he chose to believe Lan Jing's words, so he hurriedly squatted down to check the situation in the cave.
It was pitch black in the cave, and Lin Chu poked his head in, but still didn't see anything clearly.
"I'll go in first, and if there is no snake you can go in." Lin Chu withdrew and looked at Lan Jing, and after speaking, he went in again.
Lan Jing's heart beat a little faster, and she silently prayed that there was nothing in it.
After a while, Lin Chu's voice came from inside, and he said, "Xiao Jing, it seems that someone has lived here, and there are still things left here."
Lan Jing had a moment of ecstasy, someone had lived there, proving that there was a way out, and maybe there was something to eat, and at the thought of eating, her stomach began to growl.
Without thinking about anything else, she quickly squatted down and shouted into the cave: "What is left?" Is there anything to eat? ”
"No" Lin Chu replied after a short while, and he could tell that he was also disappointed because he didn't have anything to eat.
Lan Jing sighed and sat on the ground, pulling the grass around him and said lightly: "If you don't have it, you won't have it, even if you have it, you don't dare to eat indiscriminately, maybe you will eat it badly."
Lin Chu hummed and then stopped talking, and after a while, he crawled out of the cave, and there were many books and manuscripts that came out with him.
Lan Jing looked at the words on it, and instantly a sense of powerlessness surged into his heart, put his hand on the book and lightly clicked, and said depressedly: "How many people did your ancestor send to flee with scriptures?"
Lin Chu's attention was on the manuscript in his hand, so when Lan Jing asked him to speak, he only glanced at her lightly and turned away.
Lan Jing leaned over and read a few lines, the handwriting on the manuscript was a little sloppy, and many words could not be read clearly, seeing that Lin Chu was reading so seriously, he didn't bother him, so he picked up the book one by one and read it boringly.
The books here are no different from the ones in Yangjia Village before, but there are obviously a lot more.
In order to figure out what more those, Lan Jing put the same on one side, and put the other side that wasn't there before.
Suddenly, the words in a book caught her full attention, and her hands trembled slightly with excitement.
It took two breaths before she stabilized, and as soon as she stabilized, she hurriedly pulled Lin Chu and said, "Lin Chu, look, this is the method of acupuncture."
Lin Chu put down the manuscript and looked at the book in Lan Jing's hand, and then saw Lan Jing's face from the book, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Xiao Jing, it turns out that the prince was poisoned by the ancestor and died."
Lan Jing was surprised, the former prince was poisoned, she knew this, she heard what the eldest princess said, but what she didn't expect was that the poison actually came from Qingguo Temple.
"Your ancestors only developed poisons, but didn't develop antidotes?" After Lan Jing asked, he was shocked to realize that he had asked a nonsense, if there is an antidote, can Qingguo Temple still destroy the door?
"Originally, there was an antidote, but the poison changed in the prince's body, so he didn't detoxify after using the antidote, but let the poison escalate." Lin Chu replied.
"Can poison change on its own?" Lan Jing laughed twice. She felt that this was nothing more than an excuse made by the developers of the poison to exonerate.
Lin Chu handed the manuscript to Lan Jing and said, "The ancestor said that because the emperor and the queen mistakenly regarded Qirisan as a rejuvenating medicine, there is still Qirisan in the prince's body."
Lan Jing didn't take the manuscript, but frowned and asked, "What is the Seven Days?" It doesn't seem to be in that set of poisons. ”
Lin Chu shook his head, he hadn't heard of this Qiri San, if he was right, it should be a medicine with similar functions to the Xing Pill but with great side effects.
"Forget it, ignore this, the person has already gone anyway." Lan Jing said and picked up the book on acupuncture and put it in front of Lin Chu, "Look at this, teach people how to perform acupuncture." ”
Lin Chu put down the manuscript, took the book, and after reading it for a while, he said, "This will take a long time to study, and I still need to practice..."
"Then practice, the imperial society is not afraid of no experiments." Lan Jing said and went back to reading other books.
Lin Chu closed the book, glanced at Lan Jing meaningfully, and muttered in a low voice, "I can't go home for a long time." ”
"Homesick? Want Uncle Lin, Aunt Lin or Uncle Wen? Lan Jing asked casually.
Lin Chu was a little unhappy, and his mouth puffed out and he didn't speak.
Lan Jing waited for a while, but when she didn't answer, she couldn't help but look sideways at him, and her cute little appearance made her laugh uncontrollably.
"Lin Chu, why are you so cute?" Lan Jing said and reached out to touch Lin Chu's face.
Lin Chu, who was teased, turned red, glanced at Lan Jing angrily, and said aggrievedly: "I can't sleep with my own lady even after I get married, as my wife, you still laugh."
"I don't want to laugh, but you're so cute. I can't help it, so you can't blame me. Lan Jing quickly flashed to the side after speaking.
Lin Chu shook his head and sighed, with a depressed look on his face.
Lan Jing slowly moved over, rested his head on his shoulder, and said softly: "Otherwise, we won't go back to Beijing, anyway, if we fall from above, they will definitely think we are dead."
Lin Chu's hand flipping through the book paused, and he shook his head several times, "No, no, the master is old, and he will be sad if he hears that I am dead." ”
"You can write to him and tell him that you are not dead, anyway, Master Huiyuan will definitely not go around and say it, it doesn't matter if you know." Lan Jing said.
Lin Chu lowered his head and muttered for a moment when he heard this, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were full of determination, he looked at Lan Jing and said, "Okay, let's go home directly, and then write a letter to the master."
After the two of them made this decision, they couldn't help but feel more relaxed. Especially Lan Jing, she was afraid that she would be torn apart by the Queen Mother when she returned to the capital.
After all, deceiving the queen mother is equivalent to bullying the king, and even the emperor may not be able to protect her.
"By the way, does your ancestor's manuscript say how to get out of here safely?" Lan Jing asked.
Lin Chu picked up the manuscript, looked through it again, and then said in surprise: "Yes, yes, yes, the ancestor said that he heard that this side is the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave, so he dug a passage from the other side of the mountain."
The corners of Lan Jing's mouth twitched, "Your ancestor has a really special preference, and he actually dug a passage to watch the snake." ”
Lin Chu knew that Lan Jing's words were derogatory, and hurriedly explained: "Master, he is not here to watch snakes, he is here to facilitate the extraction of snake venom and then make poison."
"Your ancestor is really, he has already been wiped out because of poison, and he still wants to study." Lan Jing really can't figure out what is going on in his head with such a person?
Lin Chu opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and silently closed it again.
Lan Jing glanced at him, patted him, and said, "Forget it, ignore so much." Let's get out of here first and find something to eat, I'm starving. ”
