Han Xin didn't shirk, put down the signboard in his hand, and followed Lu Pheasant to the inner room, followed by Yu Miaoyi and Cui Yan. I walked through the bamboo forest in the courtyard and came to a house. Before entering the room, Han Xin smelled a smell of orchid vanilla, mixed with a strong smell of medicine.

After entering the house, I saw a person lying on the bed, about forty or fifty years old, panting heavily with his eyes closed, looking very uncomfortable, it should be the father in Lu Pheasant's mouth.

Han Xin saw that the old man's expression was sluggish, the corners of his mouth kept twitching, and he seemed to be very uncomfortable, and after asking Lu Pheasant, he knew that it was an unbearable headache. Looking inside the house, I saw that the doors and windows were closed everywhere, and after a while he came in, he felt a little depressed, so he frowned and asked, "Why don't you open the doors and windows?" ”

Lu Pheasant explained; "The doctor specially instructed not to open the window, so as not to invade and aggravate my father's headache."

Han Xin shook his head disappreciatively, and said with a smile: "These quacks, how to strengthen air circulation without opening the window, not only is there a lack of oxygen all day long, but bacteria can't get out." ”

This is common sense in the 21st century, but it is too far ahead of its time in this era. Although Lu Pheasant didn't understand much about 'air circulation', 'lack of oxygen', 'bacteria' and the like, he still opened the window as Han Xin said and took away the orchid herbs.

Han Xin saw that Lu Pheasant was quite decisive in doing things, and he didn't doubt that he didn't need to use people, so he couldn't help but think a little higher about her.

When the window was opened, most of the odor in the room disappeared, and the heavy exhalation of Uncle Lu on the bed slowly subsided, and the headache was not so unbearable, and Lu Pheasant believed Han Xin in his heart.

Han Xin walked up to Uncle Lu, put his middle finger on his hand to check his pulse for a while, and then looked at his face carefully, thinking for a long time and still puzzled.

The symptoms are just ordinary colds and flu, according to the medicine caught by Cui Yan, it should be cured after a few days, and there is no reason why it will drag on for so long.

I saw that Uncle Lu's face was like dust, the skin on his cheeks was loose, and the upper part of the person was deeply sunken. Han Xin muttered to himself: Looking at this posture, it doesn't look like a cold or cold, but like overindulgence and exhaustion.

Squinted at Uncle Lu who was trembling on the bed, thinking that he would not be able to do this at such an age, he was really old and strong.

Suddenly, a thought flashed in my heart, and I looked back at the desk facing the bed, only to see a bronze mirror on it, and I suddenly knew it.

Han Xin asked in a deep voice; "Was that mirror there?"

Lu Pheasant was stunned when he heard this, turned to look at Cuiyan, Cuiyan nodded, and suddenly 'hey', came to the desk mirror and took a closer look, and exclaimed: "Miss, I didn't put the bronze mirror like this when I put it, someone must have moved." ”

At first glance, the bronze mirror looks no different from before, but if you look closely, you will notice a slight deviation, which was originally facing the desktop, but it is a little weird side to the bed, if you don't look carefully, you really can't notice it.

Lu Pheasant's heart was cold, and his face became heavy, if Cui Yan was not mistaken, it was someone who had come to the house and moved the mirror.

Although she didn't understand what Han Xin meant, she faintly felt the strangeness of things in her heart, and looked at Han Xin with a little nervousness.

Han Xin didn't say anything, just paced to the bronze mirror, and suddenly ran to the window, groped under the guardrail by the window for a while, and actually took out a small wooden box, opened it and saw that it contained a pillar that looked like jade but not jade.

Han Xin suddenly smiled, his face suddenly relaxed, and he thought that things were getting more and more interesting.

"Miss Lu, does your Lu family have an enemy?"

Lu Pheasant lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head categorically; "My Lu family has been a scholarly family for generations, and my father is a great Confucian in the world, and he has never made any enemies in his life."

Han Xin nodded, looked around the room again, and asked thoughtfully, "Then how long has Master Lu been sick?" ”

Lu Pheasant sighed, and said with a worried face: "My father was infected with this strange disease three months ago, and at first he was just dizzy and felt a little lacking in energy. Who would have thought that my father's condition would become more and more serious, and I would have an unbearable headache and couldn't sleep all night, so I rushed back from my husband's house to take care of my father after receiving a message from home. ”

He pointed to the medicine residue in the bowl on the table and said: "At the beginning, my father took these medicines and had some effects, which could relieve headaches, but now the effect of the medicines is gradually becoming less obvious, my father has a headache all day long and can't speak, and he is dying on the bed. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Pheasant's eyes were slightly red, and he was a little choked up between his words.

"Three months?" Han Xin was stunned and said in surprise: "This is strange. ”

Lu Pheasant hurriedly said: "Dao Chief, what kind of illness my father is suffering from, please make it clear." ”

Han Xin pondered for a while, and then said in a deep voice; "Ling Zun is not suffering from illness, but someone deliberately did it, see this," Han Xin raised the strange thing he had just found from the window in his hand, and said: "This little thing is called insinuation, I have seen it in "Guiguzi", it can breathe people's hearts, make people restless and have an unbearable headache, and will eventually die of energy exhaustion in the long run." ”

Cui Yan on the side exclaimed 'ah', suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "Then let's change the old man's room, will it be okay?" ”

Before Han Xin could answer, Lu Pheasant beside him shook his head first and said, "It's useless, since someone is intent on harming him, even if we find out this time, he will definitely use other methods to harm his father." After speaking, Lu Pheasant turned around and bowed to Han Xin, and pleaded softly: "I also hope that the Taoist will save my father." She saw that Han Xin could easily explain the cause of her father's illness, and there was no embarrassment on his face, so she expected that he must have a way.

Sure enough, seeing Han Xin nodding and agreeing, his heart was light, and he heard Han Xin say again: "It's just that I have a question that I haven't been able to understand." ”

"Daoist, please."

Han Xin frowned, showing a look of confusion. "If it's my 'insinuation', then I can be sure that Master Lu will die of exhaustion within a month, but you said it's been three months. I just checked Master Lu's pulse, although it is weak, but there is no worry about his life for the time being, so the person who is this thing must have used some method to renew Master Lu's life, and this has been delayed for three months. ”

Han Xin paused, looked at Lu Pheasant and said in a deep voice; "So the man didn't want your father dead, at least not yet."

Lu Pheasant's face changed greatly, and he said in a trembling voice: "My Lu family has never made an enmity with anyone, what is that person's intention?" ”

Han Xin shook his head and said, "I can't guess that person's true intentions, but since I have encountered this matter, I will naturally help to the end, Miss Lu, please rest assured." ”

"Master Lu's pulse is already weak, his energy is exhausted, and his life will be in danger after tonight, so I expect that person will most likely come to renew Uncle Lu's life tonight."

"Tonight, please Miss Lu put Ling Zun elsewhere, and you also leave the house to avoid accidents, I will wait for that person here."

Han Xin narrowed his eyes lightly and chuckled, "I'm also curious, what exactly does this person want to do. ”

After dinner, Lu Pheasant took his father, domestic servants, and maids to a relative's house to spend the night according to Han Xin's instructions. Han Xin thought that there would be nothing to do if he was expecting it, and besides, it was really boring to be alone for a long night, so he agreed.

When it was time to hold the lamp, only Han Xin and Yu Miaoyi were left in the huge Lu Mansion, which seemed empty, and the quiet dark night revealed a bit of weirdness. Han Xin sat at the desk in the middle of the room, humming an unknown song with Erlang's legs crossed, and drinking water leisurely.

Yu Miaoyi looked at the dancing candle flame imprinting the reflection of herself and Han Xin, constantly flickering in the bronze mirror, and thought of the strange things during the day, she couldn't help but be a little scared, so she begged Han Xin in a low voice: "Brother Han, why don't we go to the courtyard and wait." ”

Han Xin saw that her body was trembling slightly, so he asked funny, "Since you are timid, you still want to stay." ”

"Of course." Yu Miaoyi wrinkled her nose and snorted: "We are together, if you can't encounter something, I'll stay away." Even if I can't help you, at least it's two people, better than you alone. ”

Han Xin was stunned, he originally thought that Yu Miaoyi had to stay because of curiosity, but he didn't expect her to think like this, and his heart couldn't help but warm. After arriving in this world, the only person who can really make me feel cared for is my mother, and now there is one more person.

Han Xin smiled slightly, and made up his mind to protect Yu Miaoyi no matter what.

After talking to Han Xin, Yu Miaoyi was not so scared, stretched and yawned, and said, "We just wait, what if people don't come." ”

Han Xin shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "That's no way, just wait." Then he lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious, leaning into her ear and saying, "Our entanglement to Wucheng can be here." ”

Yu Miaoyi's eyes rolled for a moment, she remembered something, a flattering smile appeared on her pretty face, and said in a greasy voice; "Brother Han, you know a lot, can you teach me some."

Han Xin hurriedly waved his hand and said seriously; "These skills are the secrets of our old Han family's nine generations, how can they be easily passed on to outsiders." Seeing that Yu Miaoyi's face was a little disappointed, Han Xin deliberately lengthened his voice and said, "But...... It's not that there are no exceptions. ”

Yu Miaoyi hurriedly asked how to make an exception, Han Xin said twice and said with a smile: "Unless you become my son's mother." ”

Yu Miaoyi was stunned for a moment, reacted randomly, was ashamed, and waved her pink fist at Han Xin, who smiled and dodged. The two fought for a while, talked again, and unconsciously poured the second watch, and the person who was waiting still did not appear. Yu Miaoyi gradually became a little tired, and dozed off with her head on the table with her hands.

Han Xin couldn't help but laugh when he saw her pretty face leaning in her palm and sliding down from time to time, like a chicken cutting rice. Afraid that she would catch a cold, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder, trying to tell her to go to bed.

Yu Miaoyi was woken up by him, sleepy-eyed, and found that she was asleep, and the somewhat embarrassed Chao Hanxin smiled. As soon as he wanted to get up, his apricot eyes suddenly widened and he stared straight out of the door.

Han Xin was surprised, only to feel a chill in the back of his head, and a chuckle sounded in his ears.

"It turned out that you two ruined my good deeds."
