The rest of the day was very peaceful, Shu Kui had nothing to do, and kept reading on the second floor until Bai Jing went upstairs and said that Ling Jiuchuan was here.

"Again?" Shu Kui was stunned.

"yes, I'm here to treat you to dinner." Ling Jiuchuan slowly came up the stairs.

"It's time to eat again?" Shu Kui was so engrossed that he completely forgot the time, and only felt that he had lunch not long ago.

"It's almost seven o'clock, if you don't eat, Bai Jingzhi will eat too." Ling Jiuchuan said.

As soon as he reminded him, Shu Kui noticed that it was already twilight outside the window.

"I'm sorry to delay you from work." She hurriedly greeted Bai Jingzhi.

"It's okay, it's okay." Bai Jingzhi waved his hand again and again.

"Let's go, you don't have to pay for this meal." Ling Jiuchuan beckoned, "Guo Yuansheng prepared lobsters and crabs. ”

Shu Kui's eyes lit up, he immediately closed the book, and followed downstairs upside down.

When he arrived at the race room and entered the box, Guo Yuansheng had already laid out all the dishes, the huge baked lobster was dancing on the plate with teeth and claws, next to it was steamed cream crab, blue crab and pike crab, and a large plate of vegetable salad.

Shu Kui feasted and ate quite happily, while Ling Jiuchuan was always by the side, drinking tea without a sip, just looking at her with a good eye.

Soon, Shu Kui was full, thanked Guo Yuansheng, said goodbye contentedly, and prepared to go back.

Who knows, out of the hotel, Ling Jiuchuan stood still on the side of the street, thought about it for a while, and turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Haocang Palace.

"Where to go?" Shu Kui didn't know what he wanted to do.

Ling Jiuchuan didn't look back, and said "come", without stopping at all.

Shu Kui was not familiar with the way back, and he didn't dare to wander around alone, so he had no choice but to follow quickly.

Not long after walking, Ling Jiuchuan turned around, entered a shop, and went straight to the jewelry counter.

"Why did you bring me here? I can't afford it. Shu Kui followed, muttering as he muttered.

"Thank you." Ling Jiuchuan arrived at the counter.

"It's better to forgive my debts." Shu Kui whispered.

Ling Jiuchuan just didn't hear it: "Pick one, it's okay." ”

Shu Kui pursed the corners of his lips and lowered his head to browse, thinking that he must choose the most expensive one.

Looking at it, she was attracted to a red string bracelet.

This bracelet is placed in a separate tray, the whole is woven with a diamond knot, the end of a buckle, buckled with an ordinary button knot, in the middle of the string of nine small black beads, the diameter is only three or four millimeters, but each one is carved with birds and animals, flowers and trees, rough look inconspicuous, can be carefully observed, but it is ingenious, very delicate and durable.

"This." She held out her hand and pointed.

The salesman laughed, and after arriving at the counter, he put on gloves and took out the bracelet with the tray: "You have a good eye, this bracelet is called a Fang Ring, not only the carving is exquisite, but also the beads of ink fragrant wood, the master's closed work, very collectible, and the space is also much larger than the general bag." ”

"Lots of space?" Shu Kui didn't understand this sentence.

"yes." The salesman nodded, "The general bag is only three or four cubic meters at most, this, each bead has one cubic meter of space, nine is nine cubic meters, more than twice as big." ”

"What do you mean?" Shu Kui still doesn't understand.

At this time, the salesman also showed a puzzled look, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Tips, similar to bags." Ling Jiuchuan said on the side.

"Bag?" Shu Kui still half-understands and half-understands, "The bag is three or four cubic meters large?" ”

"Among these things, there are empty enchantments opened by craftsmen, and the size of the enchantment depends on the mana of the craftsman, generally, three or four cubic meters at most, and master-level ones, which can be opened more." Ling Jiuchuan explained in detail, and at the same time stretched out his right hand to show the ring on his little finger, "Generally, the limit of the tip is ten cubic meters, and if it is exceeded, it will depend on the user's own mana to maintain it, and this is also nine cubic meters, which is enough." ”

"Space Ring." Shu Kui understood, and immediately thought of the plot in the novel.

"Call it however you want, anyway, it's called a bag here." Ling Jiuchuan picked up the bracelet and looked at it, turned his head to the salesman, and confirmed that he wanted this bracelet.

The salesman was very happy, hurriedly led them to the cashier to pay the bill, gave them a few more gifts, and respectfully sent them straight out of the store.

"How do I use this?" Shu Kui got something new and was very curious.

"Don't worry, go back to the palace first, I'll teach you." Ling Jiuchuan began to walk back.

Entering the gate of the palace wall, the two sat down in a gazebo in the small garden, Ling Jiuchuan asked Shu Kui to spread his hand, and then, stretched out his index finger and swiped it gently.

Shu Kui only felt a pain in his palm, and blood gushed out.

"What are you doing?" She gasped and hurriedly retracted her hand.

Ling Jiuchuan expected such a reaction, and lightly ordered: "Smear the blood on the beads, and apply each one to it." Move quickly, otherwise the blood will clot after a while, and you will have to scratch again"

Shu Kui glanced at him, very displeased, but in order to avoid suffering from skin and flesh again, he obediently pinched the beads on the bracelet in the palm of his hand and rubbed them to ensure that they were stained with his own blood.

"Alright." Ling Jiuchuan watched her finish this qiē, "What do you want to put in it?" ”

Shu Kui lifted the bag containing jewelry: "That's it." ”

Ling Jiuchuan raised his chin towards the bracelet: "It's the same as usual." ”

Shu Kui was skeptical, lifted the bag above the bracelet, and slowly leaned on the beads.

And just as the two were about to come into contact, the bag suddenly disappeared.

"It's amazing." She looked at her hand, "What should I do if I take it out?" ”

Ling Jiuchuan replied: "Think about the appearance of the things to be taken out, say the name of the bag, and finally say 'present'." ”

Shu Kui did as he was told, and sure enough, the packaging bag appeared in his hand like a trick.

She was amused, and let her go back and forth a few times, and even ran out of the gazebo to pick up a pebble to try.

"Let's go back when we do." Ling Jiuchuan played with her for a while, looked at the sky, and felt that it was not too early.

Shu Kui ate delicious food, bought fun food, and was in a good mood, all the way to the gate of the palace, just in time to see Yuxiao waiting there.

"I'll take you to the dorm." She saluted Ling Jiuchuan and led the way in front.

The two walked one after the other for a while, and Yuxiao suddenly asked, "Have you bought a bag of ink fragrant wood?" ”

Shu Kui didn't expect her to take the initiative to talk, and when she answered, she couldn't think of anything else to say.

"Very good." Yuxiao was invisible, and even the praise was cold, "The smell of ink fragrant wood can repel insects and snakes, and if you wear it, ordinary poisonous insects dare not get close." ”

Shu Kui didn't expect this to be a mosquito repellent bracelet, so he subconsciously put it under his nose and sniffed it, and really smelled a faint cool aroma similar to mint.

"The one with the door open on the second floor." Yuxiao led her to the front of the dormitory building, "It's not early, let's rest." ”

Shu Kui thanked him and went upstairs into the room.

That night, she had a dream.

In her dream, she was standing in a large courtyard where there was only one path, and beside the road was a field of colorful plants, which did not look like flowers or vegetables.

At the end of the courtyard is a small house, with green tiles, white walls, wooden doors and windows, so simple that there is no decoration.

Shu Kui walked away, his eyes were full of unfamiliar scenery, but he felt that this place was extremely familiar.

Pushing open the door was the hall, all the windows were not pasted with window paper, the sun was shining through the lattice, casting mottled shadows on the ground, and a small black earth dog whined and wagged its tail to meet it.

"Are you asking for medicine again?" At the table in the corner of the room, there was a girl sitting with her back to her, wearing a double-ringed bun, a white shirt, and a red dress.

Shu Kui didn't know how to answer, so he leaned over and patted the puppy's head without making a sound.

"Why bother with those mortals, life and death are fateful." The girl was holding something in her hand, and the smell of herbs suddenly spread.

"When they meet me, they don't deserve to die." Shu Kui spoke, but although the voice was her own, the words she said were not her style.

The girl smiled lightly: "Okay, you bodhisattva heart, living Buddha is alive." Sue me, what's wrong with this person? ”

Immediately afterwards, Shu Kui said a series of symptoms, all of which were obscure Chinese medicine words, which she didn't understand at all, but when they came out of her mouth, she was very fluent and didn't pause at all.

The girl listened and muttered for a moment: "Got it, I can try." ”

"What do you want?" Shu Kui knew very well that the girl would not dispense medicine for her in vain.

The girl did not answer, but took out a piece of cake and threw it on the ground: "Hei'er, come, eat." ”

The little earth dog immediately ran over happily, finished the cake in three or two bites, and raised his head, as if he was still unsatisfied.

"What do you want?" Shu Kui asked again.

The girl "shhh ”

The little earth dog sat down obediently, and after a while, suddenly his whole body stiffened, his body tilted, and he fell to the ground, and then did not move.

The girl nudged it on her toes and muttered to herself: "Well, the dose seems to be a bit big, and it died too quickly." ”

"What exactly do you want?" The dog corpse on the ground and the girl's words made Shu Kui very uncomfortable.

"I want salmon gall." The girl had apparently already thought of the pay.

"Salmon gall?" Shu Kui's heart sank, "This thing is highly poisonous, what are you going to do here?" ”

"Poisonous? I've got a lot of poisonous stuff here. The girl didn't think so, and listed several commonly used poisonous Chinese medicines in one go, "The fairy is poisonous, but it can cure madness; Digitalis is poisonous, but it can strengthen the heart; Aconitum is poisonous, but it can dispel rheumatism. When used properly, highly poisonous things can be a panacea. ”

Shu Kui saw that she was reasonable, thought for a while, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll give you Dan salmon gall." ”

"This time tomorrow, I didn't see Dan Salmon gall, that person just hit the damn." After the girl said this, she ignored Shu Kui and went to the small stove next to the table to boil medicine.
