Chapter 122: The Snake

The day of the mission is getting closer and closer, but I have to say that Linglong's progress is really great, to be precise, it should be that the preparation efforts in the past few years have been very good.

The attainments in the piano art are getting higher and higher, Jin Niang is the personal servant of Miss Rulan of the Hou Ye Mansion, and she has watched Miss Rulan grow up since she was a child, so she knows Miss Rulan's living habits and personality hobbies well.

Since Miss Rulan passed away, she was instructed to bury Miss Rulan, but Miss Rulan fell off a cliff at that time and her bones were gone.

Even so, Lord Hou still wants her, the maid who once served the young lady with all her heart, to accompany the funeral, which is really inhumane.

When she was buried in the loess, the suffocating pain of fear dominated her mind, and she thought that she would die here.

It's a pity that God is kind to her, finally, someone saved herself, and she will never forget the feeling of dying at that time, so Jin Niang can stand here now.

She knew only one thing now, that only the living had the right to breathe this fresh air, and that the dead did not deserve it. The desire to survive made her completely sober, and only in this way, obediently obeying, doing things well, can she live longer.

Now Jin Niang has finally lived up to herself, she taught Linglong, she is really like Miss Rulan, the most important thing is not the appearance, but the manners, language and conversation, like Miss Rulan at that time.

In this way, Jin Niang finally retired by herself. In fact, this is just her own thoughts, in reality, the fate of a person who becomes a pawn of others cannot be determined by herself, in fact, when she participates in this plan, she has only one fate! For only the mouth of the dead speaks.

The night before leaving, Linglong came to another house in the mountains, the outside of this house was overgrown with weeds, overgrown with weeds, and there was no decoration on the outside of the house, it was extremely simple, and those who didn't know thought it was a house that had been abandoned for many years.

Linglong came here, and she knew that the people in the house must not have rested at this time.

"Master." Linglong knocked softly on the door of the room.

The room was dimly lit, but the answer from the people in the room was soon heard.

"Please come in!" It was a slightly tired voice.

Linglong gently pushed open the door and saw that the master was mixing herbs in the house at this time.

It's so late that her old man hasn't rested, but she is still busy with these jobs, looking at her old man's back, Linglong actually feels a little sad, she bends over and is mixing herbs, and the white hair at that end looks more vicissitudes under the light of the candlelight.

"You're leaving tomorrow?" The man spoke, but his tone didn't seem very happy.

"Hmm!" Linglong gently responded to her question.

The old man stood up and went into the house, and no one who knew knew that there was a pharmacy in it, and after a while she came out of it.

I saw that she was holding bottles of medicine in her hands, although these bottles looked simple, but the contents were very rare.

"These are for you to spare, go out, pay attention to your body!" The old man said a few simple words.

But it can be seen that she cares about Linglong very much, maybe from the beginning, when she saved Linglong, she has treated Linglong as her own relatives, and has also taught her lifelong medical skills. This shows that Linglong occupies a very important place in her heart.

Linglong reached out and took the bottle, and her eyes were red with emotion. She took the medicine bottles and said, "Let Master bother!" ”

The old man didn't speak after hearing this, but thought for a while, and then decided to take out this object, it was a jade pendant carved with a snake, the carving was fine, and it was impossible to come out unless it was a good craftsman, but only half of it, and the jade body was extremely transparent.

"You left this time, I don't know if you will have the opportunity to return here in the future, no one has ever dared to disobey the general's order, so today, I will return this to you." The old man gave Linglong the jade pendant engraved with the snake pattern.

"What is this?" Linglong looked at this jade pendant and asked puzzled.

"When I rescued you from the barren mountains, this jade pendant was brought on your body, but the pattern of the beetle snake in the Nanshang Kingdom was extremely unknown, so I hid it, but now that I think about it, this jade pendant should be related to your identity, so I have always kept it very well and don't dare to take it out." The old man said word by word, as if this matter was a big deal.

"Does the master know the origin of this jade pendant?" Linglong asked.

"I don't know, if you have the opportunity to inquire after you go out, but remember not to take out this jade pendant in front of outsiders, because here the beetle snake is an ominous omen." The old man spoke, continuing to keep his head down, sorting out the herbs.

"I see." Linglong didn't say anything more, she knew that her life experience could only rely on herself to find answers, so she put the jade pendant in her sleeve, said goodbye to her master, and left here.

After Linglong left, the old man turned his head slightly, looking at everything outside the house, and then the candlelight shone on her wrinkled face, which had been burned by fire, and there were burn marks on her face that could not be faded, which looked very terrifying, but only Linglong did not dislike her ugly face.
