"Madame is a medical student, have you ever heard of the Changing Grass?"

Hearing his daughter mention his deceased wife, Master Qiao couldn't hold back any longer. He sighed and shifted his gaze back to Xing Ruyi's face.

"Changing the face?" Xing Ruyi shook his head: "It's not a secret, Ruyi is a monk halfway, and the medical skills he learned are not orthodox." This is the first time I've heard of this face-changing grass. ”

"Madame was modest. I don't blame Madame, there are more than 10 million medicinal herbs in the world, and it is normal that Madame has not heard of it. Master Qiao said, and sighed again: "Things have to start from three years ago." Three years ago, on Yun'er's birthday, a couple came to Zhuangzi. ”

Xing Ruyi lifted her spirits, and she knew that the key thing was coming.

"Our Qiaojiazhuang is also a big village within a radius of 100 miles, and there are a lot of merchants who come and go to sell goods, so I don't care much about the arrival of this couple.

This is a very young couple, the husband is a little merchant who is not good at words, he looks average, but he laughs when he meets people. This smile will reveal two rows of neat teeth. The wife is beautiful, and when the merchant sells goods, she is on the side to help. To be honest, they are a very attractive young couple. ”

"But something happened to this young couple in Zhuangzi?"

Although Master Qiao Zhuang opened his mouth, he was still reluctant to get to the point. Xing Ruyi is a quick temper, so naturally he can't hold it back.

"Yes!" When Master Qiao heard Xing Ruyi ask, his chin lowered and he responded with a word.

"This young couple sells all things for women's households, such as needles and threads, rouge gouache, hairpins, beads. Although it is not valuable, it is finely made. Another point is that they sell things that are not available elsewhere, and even many of them are things that we have never heard of. ”

"For example, the Changing Grass?"

"Yes!" Master Qiao's face froze.

"The grass is amazing, it only takes a little to get rid of the spots on a woman's face. My Yun'er came out of her mother's womb and had a birthmark on her face. Although it doesn't grow in obvious places, it is not appropriate for a woman after all.

At that time, my wife was still alive. Hearing about the magic of this face-changing grass, he asked the steward to invite the young couple to their home. The merchant lady saw the birthmark on Yun'er's face, and said that she could get rid of it, but she just wanted to spend more time.

If it takes some time, it will take some time. I've been waiting for more than ten years, and it's not bad for so many days. So, I arranged the housekeeper to put them in a wing room in the backyard. About seven or eight days later, the merchant lady asked the girl to inform the steward that the medicine was ready. ”

"But that medicine doesn't work?"

"It worked! Speaking of which, the face-changing grass also has some magical effects. I asked the maid to follow what the merchant lady said, and take some ointment every morning, noon and evening and apply it to the place where Yun'er has birthmarks. At first, Yun'er felt uncomfortable, saying that the birthmark was a little red, swollen and swollen, and I almost had the young couple beat out because of this.

After a few more days, the areas that had been red and swollen began to peel. After the rotten skin faded, the birthmark on Yun'er's face disappeared, and the birthmark became clean.

The birthmark on Yun'er's face is gone, and my wife and I are happy. I also apologized to both of them for my impulsiveness, and asked Madame to keep them for a few more days. Who would have thought that something like that would happen later. ”

"What's wrong?"

"The merchant lady is dead!"

"How did you die?"

"...... He was killed. ”

"Who killed him?"

"It's me! I killed him. Master Qiao said, and slapped himself on the leg a few times: "Blame me, blame me for being greedy." I saw that the effect of the rebellious grass was magical, so I wanted to ask for more, but I was rejected by the merchant's lady. ”

"Master Qiao, you're just afraid that it's not just as simple as wanting to ask for more, right?"

"Although I am the owner of the village, it is really not easy to manage such a huge village. If the family is big, the cost is naturally large. In the final analysis, I am also thinking about this whole Zhuangzi. I originally thought that if I asked the merchant lady to get this recipe for changing the grass, even if it was a partnership, I could make a lot of money. Who knows, she rejected it.

I was also a ghost at the time, and I just thought that this merchant couple was a little ignorant. Since it is not possible to ask for it openly, then secretly make someone steal this recipe.

I deliberately found a habitual thief in the rivers and lakes, and made it very clear to him that what I wanted was just a change of face, not the life of the merchant and his wife. Who would have thought that this thousand instructions, ten thousand instructions, or something went wrong. When the habitual thief was rummaging for something, he accidentally woke up the merchant's wife, lest she scream loudly and startle others, so he covered her mouth with his hand. I never thought that this time I was a little more ruthless, and I actually covered the merchant lady to death. ”

"And after that?"

"The accustomed to stealing dead people, where do you dare to rummage through things, and escape before the merchant wakes up. Although I was a little annoyed that he couldn't do anything, I also knew that if this kind of thing was involved, I couldn't get out of it, so I gave him some silver taels and let him fly away. ”

"What about the merchant?"

"Gone!" Master Qiao spit out two words lightly.

"Gone?"

"Yes, it's gone. This incident was originally caused by me, and I felt guilty in my heart, so I thought about burying the merchant and giving the merchant some money to compensate. But before I could go find him, he left. I heard from the people in Zhuangzi that he walked with the body of his mother on his back, and I don't know where he went.

Oh yes. After that, I sent people around to inquire, but I never heard from him. After that, my wife fell ill, and Yun'er also fell ill, and I was in no mood to pay attention to the merchant's affairs anymore.

Now that I think about it, the death of my wife and Yun'er's illness are all sins I did. If I hadn't been greedy back then, Yun'er wouldn't have become what she is now. ”

The owner of Qiao Zhuang looked heartbroken and regretful, and it looked like it was real. But if it is like an image, no matter how similar it is, it is all pretended. With his many years of experience, Xing Ruyi was very sure that the owner of Qiao Zhuang had something to hide in Fang Cai's narrative.

"May I ask the owner of the village, before Miss Qiao became like this, she had a serious illness, and this illness was so strange that even the best doctor in the Zhuangzi could not diagnose the cause. At the onset of the disease, Miss Qiao's whole body was red, the high fever did not go away, and she seemed to fall into a deep sleep, no matter what method she used, she could not wake up. ”

"Yes, yes, when Yun'er first became ill, it was indeed as described by Madame. At that time, I thought that Yun'er was suffering from the cold, so I asked people to go to Yong'an overnight and invite a doctor to come over. But no matter how the doctor looked, he couldn't see the cause. Fortunately, Yun'er survived on her own. It's just that when I wake up, I become ...... It's like this.

Don't hide it from Madame, over the years, I have not invited a doctor to come over. But nine of the ten doctors couldn't tell why, and the rest simply didn't even say anything, just took their things and left. Madam, can you tell what Yun'er looked like when she got sick, right...... Madam, do you have a way to save Yun'er? ”

"Miss Qiao is not sick, but entangled in something."

Hearing the words "east and west", Master Qiao's face instantly turned pale.

"What does the lady mean?"

"The owner trusts the ghosts and gods?"

"This ......" Master Qiao hesitated for a moment, and asked instead of answering: "What does Madam mean, is the reason why Yun'er is sick because she was harmed by that merchant lady?" ”

"Whether it's a merchant lady or not, you have to look again to know." Xing Ruyi also sold a pass, "The owner of the village said that the merchant lady had lived in the house for some days, I don't know if the room where the merchant and his wife lived is still there?" If so, could you please take me to see it? If the lady's illness is really caused by this merchant lady, if you want to cure the disease, you also need to start from this source. Of course, if the owner finds it inconvenient, then forget it. It's just Miss's illness, and Ruyi can't do anything about it. ”

"Daddy!" Qiao Yun'er looked at her father: "Can you bear to watch your daughter die of old age like this, and still with such a face?" died like this, and her daughter was really a little unwilling in her heart. ”

"Dad knows, dad knows, Yun'er, don't worry, Dad...... Daddy won't leave you alone. Master Qiao glanced at Qiao Yun'er's face and called Steward Qiao to him: "You take Mr. and Mrs. Yin to the backyard to see the house." ”

"Sir." Joe was hesitant.

"Go ahead!" Master Qiao Zhuang waved his hand: "I only have such a daughter as Yun'er, how can you tell me to bear it." The wing has not been touched since that incident. You take Mrs. Yin over to take a look, maybe she has a way to settle the matter. ”

"Sir."

"Go ahead. It's been all these years, and there's nothing else to think about. In the final analysis, this incident also started because of me. If...... If the merchant lady is really still in the Zhuangzi, let her come to me for revenge. I hurt her, not Yun'er, Yun'er, she shouldn't bear these retributions on my behalf. ”

Steward Qiao seemed to be a little helpless to respond, and retreated to Xing Ruyi's side with his head down, "Sir, madam, please come with me!" ”

The closer you get to the backyard, the more desolate you feel. This desolation has nothing to do with the surrounding buildings and scenery, but is a feeling, but whenever this feeling appears, it means that something exists here.

"It feels a little weird."

Xing Ruyi approached the fox and muttered in a low voice.

"It seems that it's not just a ghost, but also a little demonic."

"No matter what she is, with me here, she won't dare to provoke you."

"That's not what I'm talking about." Xing Ruyi lightly picked his hand in the palm of the fox's palm: "Although I take care of the little fox in my belly, I can't use ghost magic indiscriminately, but my ghost magic is not an ornament. I'm not afraid, I just think that this matter is not as simple as Master Qiao said. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind swept past Xing Ruyi. Looking at Manager Qiao again, he actually stopped, and his hand half-hidden under the cuffs was trembling slightly.
