Chapter 184: On the way to the palace
"Since Miss Lin helped me, naturally she won't hurt me, and since she won't hurt me, why should I say more."
Dream looked at this soft smoke Luo dressed in ice blue gold silk, a black hair with a mutton fat jasmine hairpin simply pulled, Fan Dai is not used, but it has a unique charm, this dress is not as complicated as the maid Xiaoyi, but this texture and her temperament make Dream feel very comfortable, at least with herself, will not be an enemy.
"You think so." Dream smelled a faint smell of medicine from Tong Li's body, this smell was very different from the kind of poison, Dream was a little surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that the young master of the Five Poisons Sect was not only not as good as the rumors said, I am afraid that what he thought in his heart was also unknown to others.
"It's not like it's open. There are too many things in this world that you can't help yourself, and if you want not to become an outlier in the eyes of others, you can only do things you don't like, even if you are burdened with infamy. Tong Li's eyes were filled with sadness, a little helplessness, a bit of unwillingness, and even a little bit of anger mixed in.
"Do you want to go against the grain?" Dream eyes flashed slightly, but I wanted to see if this Tong Li was worth using for himself.
Tong Li smiled bitterly, "Whether it's against the odds or the smooth, it's not a choice." Just like me, I was pushed to the level of the Young Master of the Five Poison Sect as soon as I was born, which means that I have no right to choose other paths. ”
Yes, the young master of the Five Poisons Sect, and the only daughter of the leader of the Five Poisons Sect, many times, this position means responsibility, which means that she must learn to deal with it calmly in the eyes of everyone.
Meng just smiled, but his voice changed, "Young Master Tong, can you tell me about your maid Xiaoyi?" ”
Tong Li was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Meng suddenly cared about a maid's affairs, hesitated for a moment, but slowly spoke:
"Xiao Yi came to me three years ago. Because it was my father's arrangement, I kept her by my side. Xiao Yi's temperament is a little straight and a little frizzy, but fortunately, she hasn't made any mistakes in normal times, so those little things have passed by. ”
After listening to Tong Li's words, Liuqing pursed her lips, this young master's heart is too good, too kind, right, just her temperament, is that called straight? It's just brainless!
Dream was noncommittal about such an evaluation, "That Xiaoyi····· Have you ever asked about your life experience? ”
Tong Li shook his head, "When my father brought her, she was very timid, and my father said that he accidentally saved an orphan, and he thought that there was nowhere else to go, so he brought it back to the gang to be a maid for me." ”
A faint glimmer of light flashed in the dream's eyes, "Your father, under what circumstances did you save her?" ”
Tong Li shook her head and frowned slightly, she would never ask her father about such a subtle matter.
"Do you have a good relationship with your father?" Dream suddenly asked her with interest.
"Huh?" Tong Li suddenly turned his head and glanced at Meng as if he was frightened, but seeing that Meng had no malicious intent, the color in his eyes suddenly became dazed, "As his daughter, I should respect him, he taught me the method of making drugs, and some pharmacology, I am grateful to him and deserves, but if it were in ordinary people, we should not be as ····· as now"
dreamed that Tong Li suddenly became silent, and the thoughts in his heart were a little more determined.
"Then these ten years... Are you having a good time? Dream asked cautiously.
Tong Li's face changed a few times, as if he was very contradictory, and sighed softly, "I have a very good talent, my status is very high, the people in the gang respect me, and even some are afraid of me, and the people outside imagine the Five Poisons Sect to do all kinds of evil, and when they see me, they naturally have different eyes, but... No one has ever asked me this question, you are the first. So, thank you. ”
Tong Li looked at the dream with sincere eyes, and such a blazing gaze made the dream a little unaccustomed.
"Uh... Aren't you very good with the young master of the Royal Beast Sect, how could it be... Is it the first? ”
Speaking of the young master of the Royal Beast Sect, Tong Li's eyes had a little more brilliance, even a brightness that he had never had since he got into the car, "Xiaoxiao is my only friend. We rarely see each other, but we have a very good relationship, probably because our experiences are somewhat similar. ”
Meng nodded, but Su Xiaoxiao was also a good woman.
The carriage became quiet, Dream closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, Liuqing and Lingge also sat quietly, Tong Li saw that no one spoke, and he didn't feel embarrassed, sitting next to Meng, he breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to have a sense of relief.
This Lin girl is not simple... She was afraid if she knew····· Could it be the same idea as everyone else?
The eyes secretly glanced at the dream, and when she saw that the dream no longer looked at her, she felt a little more apprehensive in her heart.
After a long while, it was estimated that there was still a quarter of an hour away from the palace, and Meng closed his eyes and said softly, "Young Master Tong, do you want to be an alchemist?" ”
This simple sentence made Tong Li's eyes widen in surprise, and there was an indescribable heat in his eyes, but this was only a moment, and soon, the light disappeared and turned into a stagnant water, like the ashes of despair.
The carriage was quiet again, this time quiet, but it made everyone feel a little palpitating, and the air seemed to be frozen, because of the words of the dream, everyone had different thoughts, but they didn't know how to break this weird atmosphere.
"Young Master Tong's conditions are very suitable for being an alchemist."
It was another faint sentence, but Tong Li almost jumped up, ho! Not only did he not feel that he was delusional, but he also said that he was suitable to be an alchemist, which... Did you hear me right?
But this is the case, the brainpower of the dream, sensing Tong Li's spiritual power, is very strong, and the talent is great, if you really refine the poison for a lifetime, and then accept the five poison factions, I am afraid that you will waste this great talent; Moreover, Tong Li usually comes into contact with poisons, so he naturally knows a lot of herbs, and he must also know a lot about the medicinal properties of those herbs.
"Don't you think... Is this wishful thinking? Tong Li had caution and caution in his eyes, but it was clear that he admitted the dream's speculation.
"You're thinking too much. Everyone has the right to choose, and this does not change because of birth. No matter what others think or say, if you don't follow the path you want in your heart, one day, you will regret it. Gossip and regret for a lifetime, which one do you think is more difficult to accept? ”
Dream opened his eyes and saw that hope was rekindled in Tong Li's death-like eyes, looking at her with burning eyes, slender jade hands clenched into fists, and Meng knew that at this moment, Tong Li was no longer the same Tong Li as before. (To be continued.) )
