Chapter 6: The Mission of the Heavenly Maiden
"I've decided, in two months, Mo Liang will go on a mission on land, you can go with it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoAs long as you live to let me Penglai reroll the rivers and lakes, you can be regarded as having completed your mission, and at that time, if you take over Penglai or leave with Liang'er, I will respect your wishes. ā
After being silent for a long time, the master turned around, his face was still cold and arrogant, as if a perfect piece of porcelain had been broken and then regained its integrity at the last moment, and said, "You have lost your temper, go and think about it yourself for three days." ā
I nodded desperately. In a trance, I felt that the woman who was perfect and not like the world was suddenly drifting away from herself.
"Open your mouth." Master said.
I was confused, but I opened my mouth as I was told.
A black, shiny pill the size of a broad bean popped out of her delicate and landed in my mouth, quickly rolling into my abdomen.
I know the smell, it's Gu.
I tried to keep myself calm, but I was terrified. In the past, no matter how angry the master was, he would not punish me with a medicinal Gu, but this time, I am afraid that I have chilled the master's heart, and the master is really going to be alienated from me.
The already fragile trust between master and apprentice completely collapsed for a while.
"This is my fate Gu, it will only occur on the night of the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, and at that time, I will send someone to send you an antidote. After the deed is done, I will give you the antidote and give you back your freedom. ā
I kowtowed three times on the ground and replied, "Yunsu takes his life."
Master waved his hand. "I'm tired, you can go back. When you leave, remember to come to me and say goodbye. ā
After speaking, Wan Tingna returned to the jade couch and never raised her eyes to look at me again.
The second or third day was fine.
Most of the weather in Penglai Mountain is very bright, and the sunshine is sprinkled in Penglai, a fairyland in the eyes of outsiders, making Penglai Island more dreamlike.
As usual, I soaked the willow branches in the mint water prepared by Biqiong, rinsed my teeth with soaphorn ointment, washed my hair with the soup boiled by hibiscus leaves and du, washed my face with the herb essential oil that Master taught them to refine, and swept a little red lips from Emei.
At that time, Biqiong had already taken a cup of bird's nest, two fish balls and a penglai fruit and put them on the rosewood table.
I was about to eat, but the blue dome on the side opened my mouth rarely.
"Yunsu, Master just passed on Senior Brother to the past."
Do the math, today happens to be the day when Mo Liang comes out of the Immortal Gu Hall. I know what I'm worried about, and I'm not. But I also know very well that since the master said that he would let them go to sea with Mo Liang in two months, then Mo Liang would have a false alarm at most.
is as neat as a blue sky, and it will be so concerned, probably only because the person who is concerned is Mo Liang.
I remembered Mo Liang's sentence that took me and Biqiong to leave Penglai together, and my heart was sour.
"Master naturally has her own sense of proportion in doing things, how can you and I discuss it in private." I pretended to be careless, scooped a small spoonful of bird's nest and put it in my mouth, raised my eyes and said, "It's time for you to eat, go down."
Biqiong gave me a cold look and turned to leave.
I suddenly felt a little guilty, and felt that I shouldn't have been in such a stalemate with her, so I picked up the embroidered handkerchief and wiped my mouth, and while I could still catch a glimpse of the green out of the corner of my eye, I added: "Master said, let us go to sea with Senior Brother in two months."
The pale green back flickered by.
Point to point. As smart as she is, there is no need to say more.
As it approached noon, I became more and more restless. Perhaps, I should also go and say goodbye to Master.
Since moving to this glazed hall, I have been going to greet Master on the fifteenth day of every month. Now, thinking that it will be the first time in my life that I will travel far away, I think I should visit that incomparable woman a few more times, and it will not be in vain to be a master and apprentice in this life.
After all, after more than ten years of getting along day and night and carefully teaching, even a stone will bring out a little warmth. What about being harsh, Master, I, Biqiong, Mo Liang, and the three thousand disciples of the entire Penglai Palace, which one of them didn't survive like this.
Thinking so, for the first time in my life, I forgave some masters.
Master is not a poor person, I am afraid that in this Penglai Qing Palace, no one will be more lonely than her.
Just as I was about to enter the Eight Immortals Palace, I was blocked in front of me by the big girl Chi Peony beside Mu Yingsha.
"Yunsu girl, the immortal lord has instructed that because she is about to retreat for a month in two days, she has to deal with some important matters in a hurry, and no one in the palace, unless she is summoned, will not be seen." There was a slight apology on Chi Shao's face.
I am sure that my heart, which is bent on going away and flying high, really chills Master's heart.
"It's okay, in that case, I'll wait here, if the master is free, it will be the same if he passes it on." As I spoke, I lifted my skirt and knelt on the white jade ground in front of the hall.
Red Peony sighed lightly, turned around and entered the Eight Immortals Palace.
About half an hour, Mo Liang came out of the Eight Immortals Hall with a heavy heart, and when he saw me, he seemed to want to help me up, but after all, the outstretched hand retracted the long sleeves tattooed with blue cloud embroidery, and walked past me silently.
We passed by, and there was nothing to say.
But seeing that he is okay, I am also relieved.
I knelt until about Shin Shih, my knees were sore and my legs were slightly numb.
The sun was a little hot, and even though I was dressed coolly, I was still sweating profusely.
Chi Shao turned back at this time and said softly: "The fairy lord has an order, if the girl kneels like this again and burns her skin, tomorrow she will also let Biqiong go to the Immortal Gu Hall to get a bucket of muscle replacement water and soak it for a few days."
"Then I'll come back tomorrow." I raised my head and said.
"No need." Chi Shao said, "The immortal lord explains, and he will summon him if there is something." If the girl really has filial piety, go back and practice hard, and don't insult Penglai after going to sea, which can be regarded as living up to the high expectations of the fairy lord. ā
I see. Kowtowed three times, got up and went back to the glass hall, and practiced hard day and night.
I couldn't sleep for a long time this night, and I went to the peach blossom pond, but I saw Mo Liang standing on the reef from afar, looking different from the past, looking at Sun Moon Bay solemnly. Even I didn't notice it when I came close. I was about to go when I saw someone coming from behind me.
In order to prevent the recurrence of any conjured up branches, I hid in the peach forest and coughed lightly.
He seemed to want to swim over, and as soon as his feet reached into the cold water, he closed his feet and looked back when he heard the sound, and he heard someone behind him calling-"Liang'er." ā
The water in the middle of the night made him shiver.
We couldn't be more familiar with that voice, and we couldn't be more afraid.
"You haven't slept so late, where are you going to swim!" The master appeared behind him with Qingyi and the others.
"I've been restless lately, and I want to calm down." Mo Liang Road.
The master said: "I see, the master almost thought that you were going to report to someone!" ā
Mo Liang said: "Master is too worried. ā
The master smiled: "That's good, for the teacher just received a report from the spies, there are living people active in Sun Moon Bay recently, it seems that my Penglai sentry is time to be replaced." ļ¼
"Master is wise. Liang'er was also wondering if there was any change in Sun Moon Bay, so she didn't act rashly. Mo Liang said.
"I'm afraid that when you make a move, all the branches of my Penglai Palace on land will be exposed under the blue sky and white sun." Master sneered. "You go find a ship, and we'll go and have a look."
I have a vague feeling that things are not so simple.
As soon as Mo Liang left, I heard the master suddenly mention my name: "Yun'er, the night is foggy, you should also go and rest." ā
I had to show up, laugh and leave.
