71. Chapter 71
The green smoke in the incense burner was swirling, and the room was full of it, coupled with the aroma on his side, Gu Cheng couldn't help it anymore, covered his mouth and nose and sneezed three times in a row.
Pulling out a sweat towel and wiping it, he arched his hand and looked apologetic, "It's rude." β
Looking up again, a bewitching face turned to the front. The eyes are full of waves, and they are very smart. Unlike ordinary people, she didn't have a smile on her face, but in her eyes, two pupils were black, like purple grapes with dew.
The corners of her mouth tugged slightly, and she stretched out her hand, "Gu Ye, please take a seat." β
Gu Cheng thanked him, and in order to show respect, he still asked, "What do you call it?" β
It's a little embarrassing, because I don't think it's possible to call a fairy Gu to such a woman with a fire tree and silver flowers, or, a great immortal.
She was very understanding, and smiled lightly, "Feel free, Gu Ye can call me whatever he wants." Anyway, it's just the two of us talking. β
As he spoke, he began to play with the small tea cup in front of him, which was floral-like with a lotus pattern, and the color was very gorgeous. After making tea, she smiled and asked Gu Cheng to lift the lamp.
Gu Cheng only hesitated for a moment, was looked at by her, covered his mouth and smiled, "Good Longjing, don't Gu Ye appreciate his face and taste it?" β
Quickly raised his eyes and looked at her, Gu Cheng lowered his head and smiled, and took a sip from the goodness.
"You medicine dealers, I can't survive because of me, so I sent you to be a lobbyist." As she spoke, she stared at him, "I'm quite provocative, let's talk about it, what do you want?" β
Gu Cheng said what those old rivers and lakes thought, and she laughed out loud after hearing it, "Tell me to only see ten days a month?" That's a good calculation! Then don't I want to reduce a lot of consultation fees, who of you will make up for my losses? β
Those people didn't explain this, he asked, but no one answered.
However, he had a question in his heart, "I also have your worries, but I have an idea, I don't know if it's right or not, you can hear it." If you continue to see the doctor like this, there should be fewer and fewer patients in Kyori. Sooner or later, even you will be in the door. So, do you plan to change places after seeing one place, or do you want to stay in Kyori for a long time? If it is the latter, it is really better to consider our mention. β
She didn't answer, Ho Ho laughed. He was suddenly curious, and then asked, "Is your medicine really that good?" Everyone's symptoms are different, could it be that one pill can cure all diseases? β
She was interested, and her eyebrows fluttered, "Hey, Gu Ye doesn't believe it?" So many people have tried it. Why don't I give you a pill to try? β
Gu Chengyi, "I'm not sick at the moment, how can I taste it?" β
Her eyes swirled around on him like spring/water, "That's right." How can I prove that my word is spiritual? Blinking, thinking about it, "Otherwise, you can ask me about it." Anything, it's best about yourself, or what you want to know most. I will tell you one by one, so that you can find out whether I am spiritual. β
As if she knew everything she wanted, Gu Cheng felt that the atmosphere was even more mysterious. As she was groaning, her wrists were hot, and her two fingers were slippery and greasy, as if they were inadvertently brushed, and they seemed to be too weak to move.
He remained silent, picked up the teacup with that hand, and took a sip. After putting it down, he asked, "Within ten years, can the imperial court completely eliminate the bandits in the northwest?" β
Her eyes flickered, and she sighed softly, "It doesn't have to be ten years, five years can be cleared." β
Gu Cheng was stunned and took another sip of tea, "What about the rivers and mountains of Great Wei, how many years can there be?" β
Her eyes shook even more, and she sighed, "A hundred years may not be, but forty or fifty years can still hold on." β
smiled, Gu Cheng was half-convinced, and he just listened to something new.
She fixed her gaze, only staring at his face, and after a while, seeing that he was no longer talking, she said softly, "Why don't you ask?" You see, all of the questions you asked can't see the results for a while, and if you ask, it's a vain question, and I can't show my ability. Didn't you say, you can ask something related to yourself, aren't you interested in your own affairs? β
Gu Cheng didn't say anything, she whispered more and more coquettishly, "For example, your marriage, the person in your heart, and the depth of your fate in this life......"
There seemed to be a faint wind in his ears, stirring the cold hairs on his neck. He turned his head away from her, "I don't want to know what will happen in the future, the road that can be seen at a glance is boring to walk." β
After he finished speaking, he just stared at the pastel teapot on the table in a daze, the color of peach blossoms, like the fresh cheeks of a girl, and like bright lips. His heart moved, and Shen Huan's face flashed in front of him in a trance.
Regarding Shen Huan and him, he didn't want to hear a word from outsiders. What happens in the future is decided by him, by Shen Huan, and has nothing to do with others.
"Ugh." The person on the other side sighed leisurely, "I've never seen a person like you, you have no desires and no desires." Do you know that people are willing to ask me when I will be promoted and get rich, when I will hold my eldest grandson, and when will my wife die in the family...... It's good for you to ask something that doesn't hurt or itch, it's really out of my mind. β
Gu Cheng was slightly apologetic and smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, I didn't let you show your ability, let's just talk back to what Fang Cai said." β
He looked up at her, and the moment they met their gaze, her eyes lit up and she smiled gracefully. Then, her face began to change.
It was the face that he deeply engraved in his mind, the look of pain and demention when she left, it was Shen Huan! It's her back, right in front of him at the moment, real, close at hand!
Unsteady water ripples gradually swayed in his calm eyes, and he reached out, trembling, and caressed her face, still feeling the same as before. He didn't know when he had stood up, and she walked up to him, arms folded, and wrapped tightly around his waist.
Fitting so closely, he smelled the girlish fragrance on her, "You're back, really, really you're back?" β
She leaned her face against his chest, "Well, it's me back." Do you want me? β
His voice trembled violently, "I, I want to...... Every day, every night, I want to ...... I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" he apologized in a panic, "I regret it, I shouldn't have let you leave alone, I'm sorry, it's my fault...... You forgive me, forgive me, okay? β
She just nodded slightly, he couldn't hear the voice, and held her face anxiously, "You have lost weight, have you suffered a lot?" β
There were tears in her eyes, "It's okay, it's all over." I have you in my heart, and I will come back to you no matter what, and we will say okay and never be separated again. β
Do not separate! This life, this life, eternal life and eternal life will not be separated! He just wanted to hold her in his arms now and not let go for a moment. The person in his arms was smooth and well-behaved, trembling slightly, like a jumping kitten.
"Shen Huan, I, I want you." He blurted out, his voice low and gentle, full of longing, "I'll be very light, and I won't hurt you, we, can you......"
She was infinitely shy, her cheeks flushed, but the smile in her eyes was so vivid, "Okay." She responded in a low voice, stood on tiptoe and bit on his earlobe, "I promise you, Gu Lang......"
In an instant, it was as if the Buddha voices of the three thousand worlds sang in unison. At this moment, he was completely clear, and then lowered his head, and the smiling face of the person in his arms was enchanting and charming.
Pushing her away, he stepped back and back, at a distance he felt safe. His eyes burned, and his voice was as usual, "You can hallucinate, is it me who is confused by your eyes?" β
She reacted, with a stunned expression, "yes, you guessed it, who taught you to stare into my eyes just now." β
The corners of his mouth twitched, it turned out that he had to blame himself for being careless?
"I'm sorry, but you're forgiving me. I'm probably not the first person to do this to you, though. β
Turning around and sitting down, she ate and smiled, "Your concentration is good!" I didn't see those people, they looked like everything. Cut, man, it's strange to say that the world is as black as a crow......"
He ignored these complaints and pointed straight to the point, "The so-called consultation relies on confusing people with their eyes, and then pulling out what the other party is saying, isn't it?" β
"Yes," she nodded, "yes, it's what I've been best at in my life." β
"What about the pills?" He asked again, but after asking, he already thought of the result, "It's Fleur!" No matter what the disease, you can use it to relieve the pain temporarily, right? β
She stroked her palm, "You're so smart, you can guess it." "It's a pity that you saw through it like this." β
He laughed and said coldly, "You are harmful, that thing is addictive if you take it for a long time, do you still have any accomplices?" β
She shook her head, "There was originally one, he was the one who provided me with Fleur, or I would have gone somewhere to get so many of them myself." Unfortunately, it broke down later, so I don't have much to offer, and even if you don't come to me today, I won't stay here for long. β
He believed her, but he still stared at her scrutinically, a person who could bewitch people with his gaze, but he looked a little hairy at the moment.
"Hey, you won't, you won't want to denounce me and send me to the official?"
He didn't answer, the look on his face was quite solemn, and after a while, she was already a little flustered before he spoke, "How did you develop this ability to deceive people?" Do you know martial arts, do you have internal strength? β
Her eyes lit up again, "Of course, this is a profound kung fu that requires strong internal strength to complete." But if I meet someone with better internal strength than me, it won't work, and maybe I'll be easily confused by others. He couldn't help but smile proudly, "But I've never met anyone like this." β
"That's your luck." He snorted. After a moment of contemplation, I already had an idea in my mind. He had a gut feeling that this was a useful person, and at least the art might come in handy in the future.
"What are your plans for the future, and you are still going to cheat everywhere and live by your charming mind?"
She sighed, "I don't want to at all, but what can I do, I will only have this ability to eat, and I will be born with money so quickly." Look at my house, it's all those people......"
Needless to say, he also understood that it was all those believers who provided for her, but not everything could be handled.
"You've exposed your stuffing, and this identity can't be used anymore. If you are willing to be a down-to-earth person, I can give you a chance. β
"What do you mean?" She glared and smiled flatteringly, "Will you take me in?" β
He nodded, "Go to my shop to help, cover food and housing, pay you monthly, and learn some counter work." As long as you don't get into trouble, I'll take care of you. β
If there is such a good thing, it is simply not a matter of effort! She raised her head to the sky and thanked God for her mercy. lowered his head and smiled at him, "Master Gu, you are really a good person!" I've never seen someone so smart and so kind as you. Then it's decided, you can't go back. β
The sycophants slapped quickly, Gu Cheng smiled, "Okay, let's decide." I will go out from here later, and I will say to the people in the medicine store that you promise to leave early tomorrow morning and never set foot in the capital again. Tonight, I'll send someone to pick you up at the entrance of the alley, and you change your clothes so that no one can recognize you. Once in the car, it will naturally take you where you need to go. As for the things here, you can pick and take the things that are important, and don't think about the rest that you can't take with you. β
"Huh?" She looked lost, "It's a pity that you can't bring so much furniture." β
He lowered his eyes and smiled, pursed his lips and said nothing. She looked around for a long time, and finally nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you." Anyway, I'll follow you in the future. β
After the arrangement was completed, Gu Cheng could leave with confidence, and only took two steps when he overheard her say, "Wait, I still have a question." β
"How did you notice that? I mean, just now, where did I show my feet? β
He raised his eyebrows, how to explain it, it didn't seem to be enough for outsiders, he thought about it, and responded to her vaguely, "It's the one you called me, that person, never called me like that." β
Shen Huan has always liked his words very much, and she always remembers those two words, so she will always only call him, Chunjun.
She seemed to have an understanding, and asked again unwillingly, "Then before that, you didn't actually see that I was a human being, not a god, right?" β
Although it was a bit shocking, he still replied honestly and unceremoniously, "I can see it, long before you asked me to ask questions." β
She was puzzled, "What's wrong with this?" β
Eye-to-eye swept over the tea set on the table, he touched the bridge of his nose, "Actually, your family background is average, and you are not a pampered girl, so I probably don't know, the so-called good Longjing is not available at this season." The best on the market is just the old year, you this, I tasted it, it's not good, it's not quite in line with the identity of a god who knows astronomy and geography. β
"Also," he said it all, with a little apology on his face, "the incense in your house is too strong, should it be given to you by those believers?" Did they trick you and give you a sinking water? β
She tilted her head to look at him, "Isn't it?" β
It can be seen that the sincerity of the believers is not so real!
"The aroma of the sinking water is strong, and it can not be dispersed for months after being stained for a little bit, but it is by no means so domineering."
After speaking, he smiled at her encouragingly, "You can learn these slowly in the future, you are still young, and there is a chance to figure it out." β
She paused in her chair, her face lost.
Gu Cheng remembered a curious thing, "Since you said that you are a cave immortal, whose name is it?" Is it the upper eight, the middle eight, or the lower eight? β
She pursed her lips and looked at him incredulously, and after a long time, she noticed that the expression on his face was serious, and then she sighed helplessly, "What you said is too big, I don't dare to mess around!" In fact, there is a saying about the fairy in the cave, but it is, it's just a weasel. β
He was stunned, and then suddenly realized, "No wonder, you want to smoke such a strong incense." Before she could react, she laughed and pushed the door away.
Since then, this cave immortal has changed his appearance, and he has been a young man in Ruian Hall very low-key. She is only eighteen years old, and she has a very gentle name, Liu Yuqing.
Liu Yuqing disappeared overnight, which made Gu Cheng's reputation soar, making him suddenly change from an unknown young man to a pivotal member of the medicine store in the capital.
The benefits that followed were obvious, he could join the ranks of the old Jianghu, see how the so-called imperial merchants dealt with the internal affairs government and the celebrant supervisors, and know more about what he had not heard of beforeβthose who were in the core of power, and those who had those whimsical needs.
He finally slowly understood that the original palace hospital could be called a decoration. It's not because the medical skills of those worshippers are not good enough, but because of the limitations of their status, they will be bound from time to time, and they dare not say or do more, so that even the pills that the emperor takes daily have to be purchased from outside.
Recently, it coincided with the 40th birthday of the master of ceremonies, perhaps because of his age, others are paying more and more attention to health preservation, thinking of looking for some longevity pills to recuperate, and several major medicine stores in Beijing are full of energy to compete for this honor. When Gu Cheng heard them, he turned his head and summed up with Shopkeeper Wu. The latter stayed up for a few nights, and finally came up with a recipe, and after making it, he tried it a few times for several officials who knew each other, and he did save some reputation. The emperor lived up to his wishes, and when the celebrant supervised the procurement, someone came to find them.
Sending medicine to Chang Chitose is a big matter, and the celebrant pointed out that he wanted the shopkeeper to accompany him. Shopkeeper Wu was afraid that something would go wrong, so he wanted to impersonate him, but he didn't want Gu Cheng to stand up without saying a word, so he carried a pill and followed the young eunuchs without looking back.
Shopkeeper Wu chased a few steps, looked at his back, and sighed again and again. Silently thought in his heart, the sky has eyes, and I hope that this time I can let Gu Sanye get what he wants.
