Chapter 4: Taking Gu

The inn is haunted. As soon as www.biquge.info second day dawned, the other residents yelled to check out and move out, and even the shopkeeper was so frightened that he was sick and said he wouldn't do it. Originally, the shopkeeper also asked Sima Luming not to go out of the room if they didn't have to, for fear of being seen by others and having trouble, but now it's good, there are only a few shopkeepers and apprentices left in Nuoda's place, and they don't have to hide their heads and tails in Changsheng.

The shopkeeper is worried, if this haunted thing spreads, it is estimated that no one will dare to come. Fu said, "Don't worry, it's all doomed, it should be the money you earned and you will come back when you leave." "Fu Yan overtook those ghosts, and the shopkeeper hurriedly went to buy grapefruit leaves and boiled water to sprinkle them to get rid of bad luck.

Sima Luming asked Yin Jingrou to stay first and then make plans.

"Hexagram Liao......" Changsheng was holding a plate of fried tofu, Hexagram Liao just shouted to eat, so she went to the kitchen to fry it, but when she came back, she couldn't find anyone in the room. She walked to the windowsill and asked Chongming, "Do you know where the hexagram has gone?" ”

Chongming lay lazily, not looking at her out of the corner of his eyes, completely transparent to her. He had been angry for several days, although Changsheng had promised in a low voice that he would not give the bottle to the hexagram again, no matter how much he talked, Chongming would not listen to it.

Changsheng had no choice but to say, "Then you can rest, I'll go out and look for it." ”

He sat in the corner drinking, and the shopkeeper held his head until he fell asleep, and for two days in a row, from the opening of the door in the morning to the closing of the night, there were not half a customer, and not even a single fly flew in.

"Master, have you seen the hexagram?" Changsheng asked.

When Fu Yan saw the fried tofu in her hand, he just took it to deliver wine and detained the plate. Changsheng said, "This is what the hexagram wants to eat, and if he can't eat it for a while, he will make trouble again." ”

"He didn't come back so early, and the cold was wasted." ”

"Where did he go?"

"I asked him to do me a favor."

Hexagram Liao naughty likes to go against Fu Yan the most, usually Fu Liao makes him quiet, and Hexagram Liao is to make a lot of noise and beat gongs and drums, and it is rare to be obedient. Fu Yan grabbed a peanut and threw it at the counter, and the shopkeeper woke up, Fu Yan reminded, "It's time to close." ”

No one patronized, and even cleaning was saved.

The shopkeeper sighed, he didn't enter the account for a few days, and the account would be ugly if it went on like this, and the account book would be sent back to Sima Villa, and he was derelict in his duties.

"You don't have to, maybe you'll get better tomorrow." ”

The shopkeeper hung his head dejectedly, "I hope that the Tao is long and auspicious, and I hope that this is the case." With that, he closed the door and went to rest.

"Master, you haven't said where the hexagram has gone."

Fu Yan cocked Erlang's legs, "The master has always wanted to teach you illusions, but I have always forgotten it. While you remember now, you go and call Lu Ming and the Yin girl down. ”

"Oh." Changsheng was stunned and went to call out Sima Luming and Yin Jingrou.

This Dao learning is also to be gradual, cultivation is enough to learn more advanced Dao techniques, Sima Luming should be no problem, immortality, teach first, if you can't learn it, you can ponder it slowly. Fu Yan moved the plate of fried tofu to the middle of the table and told them to pay attention.

Fu Yan first taught Sima Luming and the mantra of Changsheng, and then recited it himself, and his hand slid over the plate of fried tofu, and the fried tofu turned into sweet and sour pork ribs.

Changsheng curiously took it up and observed it carefully, it was really exactly the same as sweet and sour pork ribs, and then it was easy to cook dishes, so he fried green vegetables, and learned this illusion, even the exquisite dish of Buddha jumping over the wall can be conjured, saving a lot of ingredients.

Changsheng thought about cutting corners, and in the blink of an eye, the ribs in his hand turned back into tofu.

Fu Yan knew that she had seen through it, and said, "It may be a little difficult for this illusion to fool you, but a pair of eyes like yours is really rare, so it's still okay to fool others." ”

At least in the eyes of Sima Luming and Yin Jingrou, it was still pork ribs.

Fu Yan recited the mantra again, this time his hand slid on Yin Jingrou's face, and the scar on her face was gone, Fu Yan put the wine bowl filled with wine in front of Yin Jingrou, Yin Jingrou vaguely saw his own reflection in the bowl, and his face hurt again.

Yin Jingrou cried with joy, thinking that it was the profound Dao Fa that cured her. But he told her the truth, lest she be immersed in this falsehood, "It's just an illusion, your face is not good." ”

Yin Jingrou stroked the wounded face, and he could really feel the uneven scars.

Fu Yan used chopsticks to stab a piece of tofu as an example, "The so-called illusion, the mirror flower and the moon deceive people's eyes, just like this dish, even if it becomes like pork ribs again, it is still tofu when you bite into it." "He put the tofu in his mouth and chewed it, it really shouldn't have been turned into pork ribs, and he really wanted to eat it when it changed." After two days, the illusion will still change back. ”

Seeing Yin Jingrou's extreme disappointment, Changsheng remembered the story Jiang Qu told her, "Master, is there a kind of Gu technique that can change skin?" ”

Fu Yan's answer was similar to Yu Zhenglian's, "That's an evil art, don't listen to it, and don't touch it." He paused, looked out the window, and sighed softly, "Otherwise, you will harm others and yourself, and you will not be able to turn back." ”

Fu Yan's words changed, and he explained seriously, "In fact, if you are born beautiful or ugly, you will be a white bone after a hundred years, you will not be disgusting or evil, you will be kind, God will reward you for your diligence, and you will be rewarded for good." ”

Yin Jingrou bowed her head and was silent. When she saw her expression, she knew that it was useless to say more, and this knot could only be opened by herself.

When he arrived, he didn't come back until he arrived, and he didn't know what he had eaten outside, but his little belly was swollen like a small hill. Changsheng asked him where he went, but the child was sleepy when he was tired from eating and playing, his eyelids were too heavy to hold up, and he could staggered as if he was going to fall asleep at any time. Changsheng had no choice but to fetch hot water to help him wipe his hands and feet and let him sleep, planning to ask him again the next day.

As a result, early the next morning, an unexpected person came.

"Anyone?" There were shouts and knocks at the door from downstairs. Changsheng got up early, and was about to go downstairs to fetch water and wash his face and then coax him to get up, when the person who heard the question shouted loudly again because no one answered, "Is there anyone?" "The knock on the door is getting more urgent.

Changsheng thought to himself that the master only comforted the shopkeeper yesterday, "The silver is gone and will come back", could it be that Jitai really came to the guest today, or did he come early in the morning? Changsheng probe looked out of the window, and standing downstairs was the son surnamed Ye and his guards.

That Ye Gongzi also happened to look up, saw Changsheng and said with a smile, "It turns out that the girl lives here." ”

Changsheng hesitated, whether to remind the Gongzi inn surnamed Ye that it was not time to open yet, and let him come later if he came to buy something, or to suggest that the shopkeeper open the door early today, because this was the first guest in the past few days, and he might not come back if he left.

The shopkeeper must be overjoyed when he sees it.

Ye Chong, the son of the Ye family, saw that Changsheng didn't speak, thinking that she didn't remember him, so he said, "We met on the street, and the girl helped me pick up the silver." ”

Changsheng nodded to indicate that he still remembered.

Ye Chong asked, "Is there a Taoist master living here?" ”

Changsheng suddenly remembered that they were now disgusted by the huge and surprising number of believers of the Half Moon Temple, and if they were found, they would probably throw eggs, and the shopkeeper said that the Ye family also believed in the Half Moon Temple. She slowly retracted her head back into the room and closed the window.

Ye Chong shouted, "Girl! Girl! ”

Changsheng wanted to discuss with Fu Yan and Sima Luming, if he was really found, in order not to involve the inn, should he temporarily roll up and leave. When I went out of the room, I saw Fu Yan and Sima Luming already refreshed downstairs.

Sima Luming went and removed the deadbolt and let Ye Chong and them in.

Ye Chong looked at Sima Luming, and after seeing Fu Yan, he looked at his appearance and dress, and said, "This must be the Taoist who can save my mother mentioned by the Dragon God." "

Ye Chong was about to continue, but Fu Yan raised his hand to interrupt him, pretending to pinch his fingers and calculate, "I already know your intention, your mother was infected with a vicious disease many years ago, and it seems that she has been cured, but in fact, the root of the disease is still there, but every month there is always pain in the abdomen like being stirred by a knife and a stick?" ”

Ye Chong saw that Fu Yan had never seen his mother, but he was able to explain the illness in the slightest, and couldn't help but admire, "Dao Chang is really a god, it is true." Many years ago, my mother contracted a strange disease, and she was healed by the Lord of the Half Moon Temple. It's just that the contemplator said that my mother was invaded by filth and evil qi, although it was to remove the symptoms and not cure the root cause, and it was necessary to take the holy water of the half-moon view every month to suppress it. ”

Fu Yan said, "The dragon god dreamed of me last night, saying that someone would come to me early this morning to ask me to heal my family, which shows that I was moved by your filial piety to manifest my spirit." Even if the dragon god sent a message to you to find me, you are sincere, I will not help you with this favor, you wait for me here for a while, I will go with you. ”

Fu Yan and Ye Chong said a few words and were about to go upstairs, Changsheng heard in the clouds, what dragon god? What dreams? She caught up with Fu Yan and asked, "Master, how could the Ye family know that we are here?" ”

He still came to seek medical treatment on purpose, how did he know that Fu Yan knew how to heal.

Fu Yan went up the stairs, Ye Chong thought he was a master, he asked him to wait, Ye Chong stood respectfully and did not dare to move. After a long distance, it is estimated that he can't hear it, and Fu said, "I told the Hexagram Liaoye Mansion that there are a lot of delicious foods." "But if he shows his true body, the Ye family will not dare to hide it when they see it, and take out all the delicious food for him to eat.

"Master, you let him make trouble." No wonder the hexagram burned his stomach and swelled like that, the Ye family thought that the gods had appeared, so why didn't they hurry up and take snacks and fruits to worship, they must have eaten without knowing how to control themselves.

Fu Yan corrected, "What kind of trouble, I asked him to help." ”

Although Hexagram Liao is a little dragon who is still shallow, he is also a genuine dragon god. He mentioned his name when he asked Gua Liao to eat happily, and sure enough, he attracted the people of the Ye family. I thought it was a sincere prayer to God and worship Buddha for many years, and now I am guided by the gods.

"The people of the Half Moon View may be raising Gu worms in the water, and Mrs. Ye has to drink the so-called holy water every month, and if she doesn't drink it, she will feel uncomfortable, it may be that there are insect eggs in the water, and the eggs have turned into worms."

Changsheng listened and felt a little sick to his stomach, "Do you mean that there are worms in Old Lady Ye's body?" ”

"It's not too early to say, you have to see it to be clear."

Fu Yan went back to the room and got something, Changsheng wanted to call the hexagram Liao, but Fu Yan wished that this little trickster would sleep until night, if he woke up, he would definitely follow, if he took him, it would definitely be inconvenient for them to act, so he didn't let Changsheng shout.

When Changsheng went downstairs, he saw Yin Jingrou open the window and stand in the room, looking at Ye Chong with blank eyes, hoping that he would recognize her, the illusion that Fu Yan had cast on her did not subside, and at this time the others looked at her, her face should be good, just like the beauty when she was not broken, even the shopkeeper was surprised when a beautiful girl was in. It's a pity that it is close at hand, although Ye Chong feels a little familiar, he still can't recognize it, and Yin Jingrou is extremely disappointed.

Fu said, "This girl is too obsessed. ”

Changsheng thinks that everyone will have an obsession, just like sometimes there are no sesame seeds in the kitchen, and the hexagram will clamoring to eat sesame cakes, obviously the plum blossoms have withered in spring, but Fu Yan insists on drinking plum blossom wine, and she herself sometimes insists on doing something inexplicably, which is an obsession.

As long as you don't hurt yourself, you can hurt others.

Ye Chong took them back to the house, and along the way, Changsheng covered his face with his sleeves, because he was afraid of being recognized, he didn't know that his behavior was very sneaky, a little like a thief. However, Fu Yan and Sima Luming walked openly.

Fu Yan said to Ye Chong, "Sometimes you ordinary people don't understand the actions of masters, my two apprentices and I caused a misunderstanding in the Half Moon Temple, I don't know if Ye Gongzi has heard of it." ”

Ye Chong said, "Yes, I heard it, but the two high-ranking disciples of the Taoist Master and I have a relationship, and I believe that the character of the two will never do unrighteous things, not to mention that it was the Dragon God who asked me to find the Taoist Master." If I can cure my mother, the Ye family must be grateful, my Ye family can still speak a few words in the city, and I will definitely clarify for the Taoist at that time. ”

Mrs. Ye contracted a strange disease, and the main healing of the Half Moon View was improved, but there was no way to cure it, and it would recur regularly, and the pain in the abdomen would be as soon as it occurred, and the holy water of the Half Moon View had to be drunk to relieve the pain. Ye Chong led them to meet Mrs. Ye.

In Mrs. Ye's room, a young woman with a bun was serving the decoction by the bedside, and after feeding a bowl of medicinal food, she was about to feed the holy water of the Half Moon Temple.

Ye Chong called, "Xian Lan." ”

The young woman stopped moving, got up and said, "Xianggong." ”

After Yin Jingrou disappeared, the Ye family's Yin family even alarmed the government to send all the officials to help find it because the Ye family was powerful in the city, but no one was found. After a few days, everyone felt that it was more than lucky, and even the official didn't want to waste manpower anymore, so he persuaded them to give up.

The Ye family didn't want to go back, it was a matter of human affection, but the family affair had failed, and Mrs. Ye couldn't let her only son wait for a girl who wouldn't come back, even if she liked Yin Jingrou's gentle and virtuous kindness, she only had nothing to do with their Ye family, so she booked another family affair for her son.

It's this girl named Mo Xianlan.

Ye Chong said, "I invited the Taoist chief back, let him show his mother first." ”

Mrs. Ye kept hurting, Mo Xianlan said, "My mother hurts so much, why don't you feed the holy water first." ”

"Don't feed it yet." Fu Yan snatched the bowl of so-called holy water and looked at it, handed it to Changsheng, Changsheng took it in a daze, and also looked at it and smelled it, it was colorless and tasteless, and felt that it was similar to ordinary water. "I can't be distracted during my treatment, but I can't stay here with so many people." ”

Ye Chong naturally said anything, he tried his best to be satisfied, Master Ye was not there, Ye Chong was in charge, he asked his wife and maid to go out.

Changsheng thought to himself that if Mrs. Ye really had worms in her stomach, how could she take them? In the past, a pig in a family in the village slipped out of the pigsty and slipped to a neighbor's house and swallowed the silver earrings in the house, so he had to cut the pig in order to take things out.

But this is a human being, and you can't disembowel it.

Fu Yan asked Ye Chong to fetch a copper basin and then a bowl of chicken blood. There are only their masters and apprentices left in the room, as well as this Mrs. Ye, who is so painful that she is not very clear.

Changsheng was curious, "Master, what are you going to do?" ”

Fu Yan asked, "Do you know how the Gu came about?" Sima Luming was silent, and Changsheng was holding his head and thinking about it, but he probably couldn't think of it even if he scratched his head. Fu Yan had no choice but to ask himself, "Put the scorpions, centipedes, and spiders in an urn, let them kill each other and devour each other, and the rest will become Gu worms." And the Half Moon View may use a more vicious method, directly using the human body as an urn to raise those Gu. When the eggs are drunk in the stomach, they will hatch into worms, and the worms will devour each other in the body, leaving the most powerful one. ”

Fu Yan pressed the brocade quilt on Mrs. Ye's stomach.

"The Gu worm that was left behind will slowly grow up in the human body, and its appetite will become bigger and bigger, and it must be fed regularly, otherwise it will eat the host's internal organs."

Changsheng swallowed, "Master, you wouldn't be checking whether Mrs. Ye's internal organs had been eaten, right?" "How terrible it would be if a person had only skin left and all the internal organs in it were eaten.

Fu Yan beckoned to Changsheng to let her closer, and then knocked her on the forehead, "Can you still live if your internal organs are gone?" "This Mrs. Ye is still alive, but she is just thin.

Fu Yan asked Changsheng to follow his example and squeeze Mrs. Ye's stomach to see what the reaction was. Changsheng did so, and at first he didn't dare to exert himself, for fear that his strength would hurt Mrs. Ye. It turned out that Mrs. Naye was tormented by her own pain and didn't feel her strength at all.

Changsheng increased his strength again.

Finding that there was something in Mrs. Ye's stomach that pushed her fingers, she quickly retracted her hand. Now I know what Fu Yan is pressing.

"Although I don't allow you to learn those sideways, how to teach you to guard is still up. Just like the two sides of yin and yang, everything in the world is mutually reinforcing, and the same is true for Gu worms. He touched his pocket and found a worm.

Sima Lu said, "Silkworm? ”

"If it's really Gu worms, it must have been some time." The shopkeeper didn't say that the Ye family's wife was sick two years ago, and then began to ask for holy water, "Feed those insect eggs, at most they will be half full, if you don't find it, you won't be able to save it in another year and a half." ”

He threw the silkworm into the mouth of the lady.

Ye Chong found a copper basin and chicken blood according to Fu Yan's request, and Fu Yan picked up the bowl of chicken blood and poured it into Mrs. Ye's mouth, which was the blood taken from the chicken he had just killed.

If Ye Chong knew that this chicken blood was used in this way, he would not have hurriedly even removed the chicken feathers in the chicken blood. Dao Chang ...... "Can chicken blood be drunk raw, Ye Chong was worried about whether there would be a problem with his mother drinking this raw chicken blood."

"If you invite me to come, you should believe me." ”

Fu Yan asked Ye Chong to bring the copper basin closer, and after a while, Mrs. Ye tilted her head and vomited, spitting out two insects, one was the silkworm that Fu Chong fed in, and the other was black and shiny, like a loach. Changsheng felt that it should be the Gu raised in Mrs. Ye's body.

That Gu worm was raised as thick as her index finger and middle finger together, if she raised it bigger, I was afraid that even if Mrs. Ye wanted to vomit, the Gu worm would be stuck in her throat and couldn't spit out. Gu insects chase silkworms in the copper basin, and the fishy smell is overwhelming.

Ye Chong saw it with his own eyes, and said, "Dao Chief, what is this?" ”

Fu Yan didn't answer, pointing to the bowl of holy water and instructing Changsheng, "You take this bowl of water and steam it, and when the water is dry, maybe the eggs in it will be revealed." ”

Changsheng nodded, after all, although he knew that Ye Chong would cooperate in every way, he still obeyed the rules and obtained the master's consent first. I asked where the kitchen was, and then I went out with the bowl of holy water.

Changsheng stared at the holy water in his hand, if it was really as Yin Jingrou said, then this bowl of water might have been soaked in human flesh, because those female Gu were first fed with human flesh, and then waited for the eggs to be laid in the water, and then fished out the female Gu. Give people water to drink, and use people to raise Gu.

She thought to herself as she saw the reflection in the water flash over her face. Just like the image of the dead man she saw in the water tank of the Half Moon View that day, her hands trembled with fright, and she almost didn't spill the water.

She seems to have seen those strange things more often lately.

"Girl." Mo Xianlan stopped her.

Mo Xianlan's walking posture is very good-looking, the steps are very graceful, when approaching her, there is a light sandalwood fragrance on her body, she has a spa twisted in her hand, and a jade ring on her green jade finger is as green as the grass bathed in the drizzle in spring, very beautiful.

Changsheng felt as if he had seen the ring, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so he kept staring at it.

Mo Xianlan said with concern, "Girl, how is my mother?" ”

"It should be fine." Fu Yan has always repeatedly emphasized to Changsheng that he must be convinced of the master's strong skills, so if the master says that it can be cured, it should be nine out of ten with confidence.

Mo Xianlan breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly, "My mother's illness has been delayed for several years, if it can really be cured, the Ye family will be grateful for the kindness of several people." ”

Mo Xianlan lowered her head and bowed to Changsheng, Changsheng didn't dare to take credit, this was originally cured by her master, it was none of her business, this Young Lady Ye thanked the wrong person, she couldn't accept this great gift. So Changsheng also bowed to Mo Xianlan stupidly, saying that he didn't dare to be.

"Where is the girl going to take this bowl of water?"

"Kitchen." Changsheng replied.

"Why did you go to the kitchen? Does the Taoist think there is something wrong with this bowl of water? ”

Changsheng nodded.

Mo Xianlan asked her some more about the holy water, but Changsheng felt that he didn't know enough about it, so if he answered casually, he was afraid that he would answer incorrectly, so he wrote down Mo Xianlan's question and said, "If the young lady wants to know, I will ask my master first, and I'll tell you later." ”

Mo Xianlan said, "No need, since the Taoist chief is healing my mother, let's not distract him, I'm too worried about my mother's body, but if I think there is a Taoist chief, this worry is also superfluous." ”

Changsheng looked at her ring again.

Mo Xianlan said and took off the ring, handed it to Changsheng's eyes and said with a smile, "If the girl likes it, I will give it to the girl." ”

Changsheng shook his head, "No, I didn't want the ring. She just wanted to take a few more looks, to see if she could remember where she had seen them.

Mo Xianlan thought she liked it but was embarrassed to accept it, so she said, "This is just a worthless gadget, I used to like it very much, but after wearing it for a long time, I am tired of wearing it." If the girl doesn't accept it, I'll give it to someone else. I only hope that a few people will spare no effort to cure my mother, and thank you for more than that. ”

Changsheng pushed it a few times, but Mo Xianlan said that she would not take back the things she sent, and took the initiative to stuff the ring into Changsheng's purse, and then said that there was something wrong and left.

Changsheng was helpless, and planned to wait for a while to see Ye Chong give him the ring.

She did as she had instructed, and put the bowl of holy water in the steamer and steamed it over high heat until it was all dry.

The bowl was very hot, so she borrowed a cloth from the cook to wipe the spatula, wrapped the edge of the bowl with the cloth, and took out the bowl. There was something white on the bottom of the bowl, and if she had to describe it, it looked like the salt was sprinkled unevenly when cooking, and the salt sank to the bottom and stuck together.

She took the bowl back to the room, and saw Sima Luming looking at the Gu worm as two pieces with a sword, just because Fu Yan said that this was a harmful thing and could not be left. The blood of that Gu worm was splashed all over the copper basin, Ye Chong felt disgusted and kicked the copper basin aside.

Fu Yan showed the bowl to Ye Chong, "The contents of this bowl, if you drink it in your stomach, will become the kind of worm you just saw." This holy water is not to be drunk. It's just that no one may believe what I said, and Lao Ye Gongzi came forward. ”

Ye Chong saw it with his own eyes, took the bowl as evidence, and immediately said that he would take someone to the yamen to find the government, if this half-moon view was really murdered for money, the Ye family would definitely seek justice.

Changsheng gave the ring to Ye Chong, but Ye Chong was reluctant to accept it, saying that the ring belonged to his wife, and he had no reason to take back what his wife had given away, and such a valuable thing could not be thrown away.

As a result, Changsheng didn't want it, but the ring still followed her back to the inn.

She always remembered that her father-in-law had said that no merit would be punished, and that you can't be greedy. Changsheng sighed, distressed about what to do with the ring.

Gua Liao climbed on her knee and said, "Daughter-in-law, Gu Liao's back is itchy, you scratch Gu Liao." "Hexagram is short-handed, and I have worked hard enough, but I still can't reach the itch.

Changsheng was amused by his cuteness and reached out to tickle him.

Hexagram Liao took out a crumpled piece of paper from the bag, he recognized some mortal characters, but he couldn't read some of the strokes. "Daughter-in-law, what's written on it?"

Changsheng opened it and saw that it was a letter written by Sanniang to Fu Yan, which mentioned that someone had seen a woman who was very similar to Scarlet Yu in Cuicheng. Changsheng remembered that Sanniang had said that Fu Yan had been asking her to find someone, and she had been looking for a long time, just to find this person named Fei Yu, as if Fu Yan had also mentioned this name when he was looking at the Half Moon View.

"Did you take it from Master?" Changsheng asked.

Hexagram Liao admitted that whoever asked the stinky Taoist priest to take his daughter-in-law and Wood Face out to play, and if he didn't take him there, he would run to rummage through the things in his room to play.

"You can't just take Master's things without asking, you have to return this, otherwise Master won't be able to find it, and you will be in a hurry."

Seeing that Changsheng seemed to be angry, he didn't dare to wonder what was written on the note, so he hurriedly went to put the note back in its place.

Yin Jingrou happened to come to her, and the door was not closed when he ran out, but she still knocked politely, and Changsheng invited her in.

Yin Jing said softly, "I wanted to ask Mrs. Ye ...... her" The words suddenly stopped, his eyes stared at the ring that Changsheng had placed on the table for a while, and then he picked it up and asked, "Where did you get this from?" ”

Changsheng was distressed, and while pouring tea for her, he said, "The young lady of the Ye family gave it." Although Mo Xianlan said that it was not worth much, no matter how she thought about it, she felt that Mo Xianlan wanted her to accept it with peace of mind.

Yin Jingrou also stared at the ring intently, as if she was recognizing.

Changsheng said, "Young Lady Ye is too polite, she thought I liked it and gave me the ring." The ladies and ladies of the big families she met seemed to be so enthusiastic, and Jiang Qu's sister was also before, and she gave her a lot of things.

It's just that she is Jiang Qu's fellow disciple after all, and Jiang Li can be regarded as a lover and Wu, but I didn't expect Mrs. Ye to be so generous to her.

But she deserved it.

"The young lady of the Ye family is called Mo Xianlan, right?" Yin Jingrou asked.

"How do you know......" Changsheng wanted to ask Yin Jingrou how he knew, but then he thought about it, the Ye family is a local family, and the son of the Ye family is estimated to know that the whole Ye City knows, just as the Ye family proposed to the Yin family at the beginning, and finally this marriage blew up again, and it was the same sensation that a little inquiry could be asked. When Miss Yin returned to Ye City, she should have paid attention to the Ye family's affairs, and it was not surprising to know that the young lady's name was Mo Xianlan. "Yes, it's called Mo Xianlan."

"Does she have a big birthmark on her face?" Yin Jingrou gestured on her face and covered a large area of her right face with her hand, "Such a big red birthmark." ”

Changsheng shook his head, "No." ”

"Really?"

"Not really." They were so close to each other when Mo Xianlan gave her the ring, if she really had a birthmark on her face, she couldn't see it. "The young lady of the Ye family is very white and beautiful." She noticed that Yin Jingrou's face was not very good, and the hand holding the ring seemed to be trembling slightly, "Miss Yin, are you okay?" ”

Yin Jingrou only replied to her, "I have something to go out." And he hurried away. Changsheng felt that her reaction was a little strange, but he didn't think much of it.

At night, she brought food to Yin Jingrou, but the room was empty. Since Yin Jingrou has explained that she has something to do, she doesn't have to worry too much. But she was thinking about where Yin Jingrou's parents died, and she was helpless in Cuicheng.

At night she had nightmares again.

It's still the hazy and unclear place I dreamed of last time, the same woman with long hair and waist, the same one who can't see her face behind her back, kowtowing to the gauze tent and pleading. The woman picked it up and opened the sack beside her, and stabbed the person inside the sack without hesitation.

Changsheng covered his eyes with his hands, this dream was done longer than the last time, and the dream continued backwards. The woman cut off a large piece of human skin, and the person in the sack was so painful that he bent his knuckles to cover the wound on his face, but the blood could not be stopped, and kept pouring out of his fingers.

He wore a ring on his finger, and his emerald green color was stained red with blood.

Changsheng woke up and wiped his sweat.

Chongming gloated, "What, have a nightmare?" It will get worse and worse in the future, and maybe I will dream about it every day. He just waited to see her haunted by nightmares every night, and she couldn't sleep well if she wanted to.

Changsheng thought that she did seem to have nightmares a lot recently, she pinched herself, but she didn't control her strength, pinched herself, and quickly blew and rubbed the sore spot.

Shigeaki saw her "self-harming" and asked, "What are you doing?" "I haven't woken up yet.

Changsheng lowered his voice, afraid of waking up the hexagram, "I'm practicing." Later, when I have nightmares, I will be able to pinch myself and wake myself up. ”

Is this a method that normal people think, I have never heard of pinching myself and practicing. "Why are you so stupid, you think ......" Chongming blurted out, and stopped talking halfway through.

Changsheng rubbed his hands together and asked, "What am I?" ”

Chongming scolded, "You are so stupid that you can't be saved, there is no cure, there is no one to be done, there is no one." These words were learned by hearing mortals speak after he came out, and he scolded smoothly, no wonder Qian Ruyue loves to scold people so much, scolding is smoother than not scolding, "Don't you have a little anger when you hear me scold you?" ”

Changsheng said, "I'm stupid. ”

Everyone on Kunlun Mountain knows it, and she knows it herself. But my father-in-law said that it doesn't matter if I'm stupid, it's a blessing to be stupid, and I don't mind the master and my brother, so she thinks it's okay.

Changsheng was suspicious, "I've been dreaming about some bad things a lot lately, so it can't have anything to do with you, right?" ”

"Do you think I'm a dream tapir, able to manipulate other people's dreams at will? It's none of my business, believe it or not. ”

Changsheng moved the position of the pillow, pulled the quilt and continued to sleep.

Chongming said, "You're not afraid of continuing to have nightmares?" ”

No matter how stupid Changsheng is, he can hear Chongming's tone that wishes she would lose sleep, but she can't stop sleeping because she is afraid of having nightmares, "When I have nightmares, I will wake myself up again." "She's already practiced a little bit just now, isn't she, so don't be afraid.

On the second day, breakfast was brought by Yin Jingrou herself, Changsheng thanked him, took the white porridge and steamed buns, and said with concern, "Miss Yin, where did you go yesterday?" ”

Yin Jing Judo, "I went to see a friend." ”

"It turned out that I went to find a friend to catch up." She also thought that Miss Yin had no relatives and no reason, it turned out that she still had friends, and she should be very happy to meet again, after all, the people in Cuicheng thought that Yin Jingrou was dead, and her old friends were reunited, no wonder she had been gone for so long.

Yin Jingrou stroked her wounded face, "It was only after the Dao Elder used illusion to temporarily turn the scar on my face away, so I dared to go to her." ”

Changsheng persuaded, "Miss Yin, my master told me that appearance is just skin, and a person's good heart is the most important thing. She suddenly sniffed hard and leaned closer to Yin Jingrou to sniff.

Yin Jingrou took a step back.

Changsheng was afraid that he had frightened her suddenly, so he asked, "Miss Yin, do you smell fishy?" ”

Yin Jing Judo, "No." ”

Changsheng thought to himself, it might be that she smelled it wrong, it was bad, it couldn't be that she couldn't sleep well, and there was something wrong with her nose.

Yin Jingrou's clothes were all lent to her by Changsheng, and Changsheng remembered that the clothes Yin Jingrou was wearing now were not hers, and she didn't have a skirt with orchid patterns, "This dress?" ”

Yin Jing said, "I'm always embarrassed to borrow Miss Gu's clothes all the time, so I used the silver that Ye Gongzi gave me to buy two pieces before, and I will return them to Miss Gu after I wash the clothes." ”

Changsheng smiled, "You are too polite, you can give me the clothes and I will take them to wash myself." ”

"Miss Gu." Yin Jingrou returned the ring, "I forgot to return this to you yesterday." ”

Changsheng held breakfast in his hand, didn't have his hand to take it, and asked Yin Jingrou to put the ring on the table, she saw that Yin Jingrou was very reluctant, but unfortunately the ring was not hers, and it was to be returned to the original owner, otherwise it could be given to Yin Jingrou.

Yin Jingrou said softly, "I came back too late last night, so I'll go rest first." ”

Changsheng saw that her eyes were bloodshot, thinking that she really hadn't slept enough last night, and thanked her again and sent her out of the room.

Fu Yan went to the Ye Mansion to treat Mrs. Ye and cured her illness, the Ye family was grateful, Ye Chong also fulfilled his promise and prepared a generous gift, and beat gongs and drums all the way to the inn. Business at the inn began to improve again.

The shopkeeper is gone, there are not enough people, Changsheng saw that the shopkeeper was too busy to help alone, so she was kind to help, although she didn't know how to help settle the bill, but she could still do it by serving tea and pouring water, and going to the kitchen to give the cook a hand.

Seeing that she was busy going in and out, the little monkey thought it was funny and learned from her to work.

Hexagram Liao had already eaten all the dishes in the inn, and he could even memorize the names of the dishes. When a customer ordered, he stood on tiptoe to recommend, no matter how cute or funny he looked, he would always order one or two more dishes. The little monkey will jump on the table after the guests leave, pick up the rag and wipe the table as if it were tidy.

Sima Luming also started to clean up the dishes, the shopkeeper didn't dare to let him work, but there were too many guests, and he was also busy waiting for him to finish, and once again remembered that Sima Luming was his young owner, and when he was going to inherit the family business in the future, it was already about to close.

The shopkeeper gave Hexagram Liao a large plate of snacks as a reward, and Changsheng let him eat it with the little monkey, but Hexagram Liao snickered like a little mouse with a pointed mouth, he went upstairs with a plate and planned to hide in the bed to eat alone, and thought that he had not been found, but the little monkey followed in his eyes.

Changsheng and Sima Luming tidied up the table and closed the door.

Fu Yan sat alone, he had been sitting from morning to night, and his butt had not moved his position, Ye Chong came today not only to thank him, but also for the matter of the Half Moon View, I don't know what to say, in short, he has been so abnormal since Ye Chong left.

Changsheng sent some wine over.

Fu Yan smelled the aroma of wine and looked up at her, and said with a smile, "You will nag you to drink so little for the teacher on weekdays, what's wrong today?" ”

That can't be called a little, it's just drinking wine as water, "Make an exception today, I don't nag how much Master drinks." ”

Fu Yan stared at her, but there were two words of worry clearly engraved on her forehead, Changsheng has always been clumsy, but there are times when he is careful, Fu Yan also called Sima Luming over, "You two accompany the teacher to have a drink." ”

It seems that she has not touched the wine since the last time she drank the pear wine given by Master Zhongmiao, and Changsheng took a sip and was choked by the spicy wine, she still didn't understand why Master liked to drink this.

Changsheng thought about it, but decided to confess to Fu Yan, "Master, I went to your room and got the letter that Sanniang wrote to you, I saw it." ”

Fur was not angry, "That troublemaker. No wonder he opened the closet that day and saw that his clothes were in a mess. It must be a hexagram, and I don't want him to notice it afterwards, thinking that he can just fold the clothes and put them back, but who knows that the clothes are crooked. "Who do you want to ask Scarlet Yu?"

Changsheng shook his head, "I promised Master not to ask anything. ”

Sima Luming also took a sip of wine and said nothing.

Fu Yan looked at Changsheng and smiled, "You, sometimes you are too honest and obedient. "The apprentice is obedient, he has a lot of worries, but he will also worry about her being deceived and helping her to count the money, so he often tells Lu Ming to take care of her." Scarlet Yu is my senior sister, your other uncle. At that time, I was still traveling, and when I returned to Kunlun Mountain, she had already been expelled from the sect because she had violated the rules of the sect and deceived her teacher and destroyed her ancestors......"
