In the hall, Meng Mu suddenly sneered and shouted, "Xiao Yu!"

Through the eyelets of the window paper, Song Ting saw a pair of feet wearing black fast boots approaching the hall, and walked to Meng Mu and knelt on one knee: "Owner!"

Only then did Song Ting see the appearance of the owner of these feet, wasn't it the young man who guarded the mountain at the foot of the peak during the day...... Under the lamp, his face was quite white, and there was a hint of charm on his handsome face.

"Tell me...... How did that man come to my Biyun Villa? A grim smile appeared on the corner of Meng Mu's lips, and the words were said to Xiao Yu, but his eyes looked at Meng Dan.

"Lord! I shot a cold arrow at the man, originally trying to scare him and dissuade him from going up the mountain, but the man insisted on going up the mountain, saying that he had an urgent matter to ask the two owners. I told him that he had to go through three checkpoints to get up the mountain. When the man heard this, he somehow fainted. At this time, the owner ...... Madame happened to meet him and ordered me to take him up the mountain through a secret passage. ”

"What! Actually took the secret passage? Meng Mu slapped his chair and got up, his face was pale, obviously really angry.

"Yes!" Xiao Yu knelt down.

"Xiaoyu...... You ......" Meng Dan's face was crimson, her eyebrows were furrowed, she obviously didn't expect Xiaoyu to tell her husband.

"Xiaoyu, you go down first!" Meng Mu waved his hand to signal Xiao Yu to step back.

"Yes!" An imperceptible hint of gloom flashed on Xiao Yu's face, took three steps back, turned around and walked out of the hall door.

"Dan'er......" After Xiao Yu retreated, Meng Mu looked unhappy, sighed, and said, "How long do you want to hide it from your husband?"

Meng Dan bit his red lip and said loudly: "That's right, I brought him up." His wife is dying, and she has come to ask us for medicine, brother, so you can be generous and give him ghost flowers, right? ”

Meng Mu's face turned pale: "What? Still want my ghost flowers? It's a fool's dream! I'm going to kill him right now! As he spoke, he took out a black and blue iron rod from the weapon rack on the side, held it in his hand, and struck it on the ground, and suddenly many fine cracks broke out of the green bricks.

Meng Dan exclaimed: "Brother...... Brother! ”

Meng Mu flicked his sleeves and walked out of the hall door, but his figure suddenly froze, slowly turned his head, his expression changed, his face was distorted, his eyes were about to burst, and his eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire: "You...... You're actually ...... Poison me......" Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed in the hall.

"Brother!" Meng Dan had tears in his eyes, walked up to Meng Mu's side, reached out and touched his cheek, and said with teary eyes: "Brother, do you know that I can't stand it anymore...... You've kept me here for sixteen years, and I'm like a bird imprisoned by you, and I'm really ...... Stand...... Brother ......"

"For sixteen years, I have watched you do one bad thing after another, but I have not dissuaded you, because you are my brother, and my sister is willing to live and die with you...... But...... My sister knows in her heart that one day, we will not die well...... In my sister's heart, I just want my brother to do a good deed, so I will do one...... Okay? Tears dripped on Meng Mu's cheeks, but at this time, Meng Mu's eyes were closed and unconscious.

Meng Dan leaned over and hugged Meng Mu, crying so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, "brother, brother" kept calling softly......

At this moment, there was a click, and there was a sound at the back door of the hall, and Meng Dan suddenly raised his head: "Who?"

Song Ting pushed open the back door and walked into the hall, Meng Dan saw that it was him, put away his crying, raised his sleeves to wipe the corners of his eyes and face, and touched Meng Mu's waist in a squirming manner.

"Mrs. Meng, he...... Is he okay? Song Ting looked at Meng Mu lying on the ground and asked cautiously.

Meng Dan touched for a while, took out a bunch of copper keys, restrained his sadness, and said: "My grandson is fine, I just poured him some drugs, the effect of the medicine is not strong, he will wake up in an hour!" Song Gongzi, we have limited time, you come with me quickly! With that, he took the key and came out the back door.

Song Ting hurriedly followed her, wondering in his heart: What she said was to discuss with her husband, is this the way to discuss?

When you go out, the moon shines in the sky, the breeze blows, and the fragrance of flowers wafts in, which is refreshing.

I didn't have the heart and didn't have time to smell the flowers, Meng Dan led Song Ting quickly, avoided patrolling on the road, turned left and right, and finally came to an elegant cottage full of peonies, a lantern was hung under the door of the small house, and the plaque on the door reads "Elegant House among Flowers".

Meng Dan took off the lantern and blew it out, lit only one candle, and then sent the candle to Song Ting, she unlocked the door with a copper key with both hands, and the two immediately entered the door.

Song Ting lit a candle and saw many peony calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and only then did he recall that Bai Qiuyan said that the peony monk liked things related to peonies, but he didn't know which of his husband and wife liked these things, so he asked each other.

Meng Dan muttered: "These are all gifts received by the grandson, he sold the flowers to the big merchants, and the big merchants gave them poems and paintings to show their gratitude, and the grandson accepted them." It's not a big favorite, it's just that everyone is the same. ”

Song Ting said: "It turns out that the two of them planted flowers and sold them."

Meng Dan said: "This is natural, there are more than 100 people in the village, if you don't exchange flowers for food, what do you rely on to eat and drink?"

Song Ting nodded and said, "That's true." It is suitable for planting flowers here, with a suitable climate, constant sunshine and abundant rain. ”

Meng Dan walked to a desk, incense was offered on the desk, she held the incense burner on the desk, twisted slightly, and suddenly heard a rumbling sound like pushing a stone mill, the desk moved away, and behind the desk, there was a secret room.

Meng Dan said: "There is a "Zhuge Eight Arrays" array mechanism in the secret room, you need to walk according to the Nine Palaces, Song Gongzi, you can't avoid the mechanism when you go in, you might as well wait here for the time being." I went in and fetched the ghost flower, and came out. ”

Song Ting didn't know anything about the "Zhuge Eight Array Diagram" and "Nine Palace Steps", since there was an organ, then he wouldn't go in, so he nodded and said okay.

Meng Dan took the candle in Song Ting's hand and stepped into the secret room. Song Ting asked in a low voice, "Mrs. Meng, are you okay?"

"It's okay, these arrows are array mechanisms. But I know the formation, so Childe doesn't have to worry about me. Meng Dan's voice came from inside.

"That's fine." Song Ting breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the candle was in Meng Dan's hand, his eyes were already black at this time, as if he had fallen into an endless black hole, he was a little scared, he felt the fire knife and flint on his body, lit a ball of paper medium, and felt a little comforted in his heart under the faint fluorescence.

He suddenly thought of Zhao Yuanzhen for no reason, thinking that she was coughing up blood on the bed at the moment, which must be painful and unbearable. Counting up, more than three days have passed since the "seven-day limit", and the journey from Suzhou to Yangzhou will take at least more than a day to catch up...... Time is really short, I hope she can hold on.

The paper medium went out, he lit another one, and suddenly thought that he would be able to get this key medicinal material for detoxification "Liangsheng Flower" immediately, and no matter whether it was called a ghost flower or a two-life flower, as long as it could really heal Zhao Yuanzhen, it would be great...... Thinking of this, I felt some irrepressible excitement in my heart.

However, the closer one gets to success, the more one has to worry about all the possibility of accidents. According to Murphy's Law, nothing is simple, and the more afraid you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes...... Thinking of this, he was a little uneasy, looking forward to God's favor, but don't make any mistakes.

……

Before I knew it, I ordered several paper media.

Just as he was thinking wildly, suddenly his ears rumbled, and there was another sound like pushing a stone grinding, and Meng Dan had already lit a candle and came out, twisted the incense burner, and closed the door of the secret room.

She was holding a small pot of things covered with a black cloth in her hand, and Song Ting guessed that it should be the "ghost flower" in her mouth, the "two-life flower" he was looking for.

"Got it?" He still couldn't help but speak, and there was some irrepressible joy in his voice.

"Got it." Meng Dan also nodded, his eyes shining brightly. After speaking, he tore open the black cloth, and saw a tree that looked very similar to Manzhu Sawa but was significantly smaller, as small as a mountain ginseng, radiating red light, together with the fine black soil, in a blue and white porcelain flower pot. The flowering tree looks much the same as Manju Sahua, but on the rhizome, there are a few more red oval leaves.

"Childe, look, her petals and leaves seem to bleed...... Meng Dan touched the flower leaf with his finger, and the flower leaf immediately bled as if it were bleeding, oozing red juice, stained on the finger, like carmine.

"The Flower of Two Lives, the Flower of the Other Shore, the Flower of Soul, the Flower of Ghosts...... It must be it! Song Ting muttered excitedly.

Meng Dan also sighed: "My grandson and I have been planting flowers for 16 years before we can grow such a rare thing, and it is worth the money to save people's lives today."

Song Ting took out the money bag from his body, stuffed it into Meng Dan's hand, and said, "Da En shouldn't have thanked him. Today's kindness, I don't know how to repay it, these silver taels, the right should be a little heart, and I hope Mrs. Meng will accept it. I have nothing else to repay. ”

That Meng Dan pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "I accepted your wine and paintings, and it would be inappropriate to ask for your silver again." Time is pressing, you better go back and save your lady. He stuffed the money bag back into Song Ting's hand.

Song Ting was slightly stunned, only to recall that he fainted at the bottom of the mountain and woke up in the "Flower Fragrance Secluded Residence", but he didn't see peony wine and peony paintings again, it turned out that Meng Dan had already taken them. It was so good that he didn't have to hand her over to her.

"What are you still stunned about? Let's go! Follow me through the secret passages! Meng Dan handed over the "Ghost Flower" to Song Ting, went out of the door, blew out the candle and threw it away, and then turned around.

Song Ting hurriedly followed, holding the "Ghost Flower" in his hand, and his mood seemed very excited.

About the tea time, the two came to a waterfall, the murmuring water, the sound is also shocking.

There is a pontoon bridge erected in the stream stone to arrive at the waterfall, the pontoon bridge is about two zhang long, about three feet wide, there are nine iron chains on the bridge, the whole process is paved with wooden planks, Meng Dan walks in front, holding Song Ting's sleeves, the two slowly cross the bridge, through the waterfall, there is a cave inside.

There were torches everywhere in the cave, but there was no one to guard them, all of which was obviously arranged by Meng Dan......

"Song Gongzi, from here on, I'm going to blindfold you. I'm going to do that, and I'm sure you'll understand. Meng Dan took out a black cloth from his waist and blindfolded Song Ting.
