Chapter 2: Back from the Dead
Fifteen years later, the Imperial Capital.
"Your face, this guest officer!" The inn's business is booming, and the second child in the store is also very busy.
After putting the noodles down, Xiao Er was in a hurry to leave.
"This imperial capital city is really prosperous," the woman in a plain dress picked up her chopsticks, and her bright eyes glanced out the window, "It is worthy of the feet of the Son of Heaven." ”
Hearing her say this, the shopkeeper couldn't help but look at the woman twice.
Although she was wearing a plain long dress, her hair was tied back like a man, but this did not affect her beauty at all, and the simple French style made her a little heroic.
Xiao Er was surprised, thinking that such a beautiful woman must be a young lady from a rich family.
"Is the girl from out of town?" Xiao Er poured a cup of tea for the woman, "Come to play or go to relatives?" ”
The woman smiled but did not answer.
"Knock, knock!" Several long gongs sounded, attracting everyone's attention.
After a while, a huge funeral procession came over, making the originally noisy street a lot quieter in an instant.
"Hey, the eldest princess is young, and she has a difficult birth...... It's a pity, it's a pity," Xiao Er shook his head regretfully, and glanced at the woman who was staring intently at the funeral procession at this time, "Girl, you don't know yet, the one who passed away was the emperor's favorite sister today, although she was nearly thirty years old, she was also a rare beauty." ”
Just as the shopkeeper sighed, the figure of the woman in plain clothes flashed and she had already run out of the inn.
"What a bold man, he dares to block the way of the eldest princess!" With a loud shout, everyone looked over, only to see a woman in a white dress standing in front of the funeral procession, her eyebrows were flying, and her spirit was radiant.
Suddenly, several guards in mourning clothes stepped forward and drew their swords to surround the woman.
"The eldest princess is not dead," the woman's voice was crisp and powerful, as if with a strange ability, enough for everyone to hear.
"The eldest princess is not dead!"
"Presumptuous!" The concubine held the spirit of the eldest princess, his eyes were red, "The princess has been generous and merciful in her life, if you leave quickly and do not blame the past, if you talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being polite!" ”
The pony's words did not frighten the woman, but she walked forward step by step, staring directly at the closed coffin, as if she could see the people inside.
"The princess is not dead!" The woman stopped in front of the colt and her gaze swept over the spiritual position in his hand, "Why don't you let me try it?" ”
"The eldest princess's daughter's body, how can you violate it?" The horse saw that the eldest princess was dead, and he categorically would not let the person in front of him come nonsense, "I warn you one last time, retreat!" ”
"Wait!"
Just as the colt and the woman were confronting, an old voice came from behind, the old man in white looked a little haggard, he glanced at the woman, first surprised, and then his eyes became firm: "If you can't save the princess, how can you make up for it?" ”
"This life is willing to accompany the princess to Huangquan," the woman's red lips opened slightly, but her words were extremely firm.
The old man and the horse looked at each other, and soon looked at the woman again: "The old minister watched the princess grow up, but the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, if you can really make the princess come back to life, the old minister will admit the crime of today's violation!" ”
"Grandpa Pei!"
"There is no need to say much, the old minister will ask the emperor for guilt afterwards," the old man closed his eyes, he was just holding on to a little luck.
Even if the horse didn't agree, there was nothing he could do when Father-in-law Pei spoke, so he could only let people lead the woman forward and walk towards the coffin.
When the surrounding crowd learned of this, they came to watch, wondering who the woman really was, and whether she could bring the princess back to life.
After the coffin was opened, the woman looked at the woman lying quietly in the coffin, her eyes moved slightly, and she ordered someone to carry the eldest princess out.
Although others were curious, they did what she said.
The woman stretched out her hand to check for the eldest princess, and then asked people to remove the Ling cloth on the side and build a closed space to separate everyone's sight.
She quickly pulled out a white cloth bag from her waist and opened it to reveal needles that shone with silver light.
The woman first pinched and rubbed the eldest princess's acupoint, and then took out a silver needle and stabbed it at the eldest princess's abdomen, the movement was sensitive and light, as fast as lightning.
A few more silver needles sank into the eldest princess's body, and the originally pale and lifeless person twitched his lower fingers slightly.
The woman's face was delighted, and she moved the silver needle in her hand, and as her technique of moving the needle became faster and faster, the eldest princess's body slowly moved.
From the finger twitching at the beginning, to the slight expression on the face at the end.
Seeing that the time was about the same, the woman lifted the eldest princess's eyelids and found that her eyes were full of tears, so she stopped moving the needle.
Now it's not just about waking up the princess, it's about keeping the baby in her womb.
After the woman thought about it, she took out three more silver needles and sank them straight into the eldest princess's abdomen.
The moment the silver needle entered her body, the eldest princess suddenly raised her hand and grabbed the woman's shoulder, and in the next second, her eyes widened and she gasped violently.
"Don't be afraid, I'll help you," the woman endured the pain in her shoulder and unbuttoned her pants for the eldest princess, her expression so calm that she didn't look like a girl in her teens at all.
The people outside the tent looked inside, and through the white cloth, they could only roughly see the woman's swaying shadow.
Coming back from the dead, I'm afraid only immortals have such skills.
"Wow, wow, wow......"
A quarter of an hour later, a loud cry came from the tent, deafening, and the crowd was alarmed.
When Father-in-law Pei heard the crying of the baby in the tent, he took two steps forward excitedly, and he couldn't hold back crying for a while, and the subordinates next to him hurriedly supported him.
After a while, the woman walked out of the tent, holding the bloodstained baby in her hand: "Congratulations, it's a little boy." ”
The woman smiled and handed the baby to the maid next to her, wiped the blood stains on her hands, and looked up at the man behind her: "Won't the horse go in and see the princess?" ”
When the horse heard this, he was in a trance at first, and then rushed into the tent like a gust of wind.
No one thought that the person who had died would really come back to life and give birth to a child smoothly.
"Girl, great kindness, please bow to me!" Gonggong Pei cried with joy, and was about to kneel down as he spoke.
At this moment, he didn't know how to express the joy in his heart, and kept praying in his heart to thank God.
"It should be," the woman hugged Father-in-law Pei, with a smile on her face, "Everything is as it should be." ”
Father-in-law Pei looked at her eyebrows, his thoughts were ethereal, and the face in front of him seemed to slowly coincide with a certain face in his memory.
"How could it be ......"
"What?" The woman tilted her head, as if she wanted to listen carefully to what Grandpa Pei said.
Gonggong Pei suddenly realized, and hurriedly smiled gratefully: "I don't know what the girl is called, and I will repay the girl in the future." ”
The woman straightened her back, her hair moving in the wind, her expression became indifferent, and she said her name word by word.
"Cloud worry-free."
She wants you to be safe and worry-free every year, and from then on, you will be worry-free.
Worry-free in the cloud.
