Chapter 177: Xiao Hanlong
Gu Yan raised her eyes and listened to this man's words, and always felt that this Xiao Hanlong's name had a cold temperament, and she seemed to be a person who was not easy to approach.
"Xiao Hanlong is on the mountainside next to my residence, I hope you can find her." After the poison doctor finished speaking, a waiter came in from outside and motioned for Gu Yan and Gu Suliang to follow him.
Out of the poison doctor's courtyard, all the way to the west, this road is very far, Gu Yan and Gu Suliang are already very tired, and this road can be regarded as exhausting.
Finally, when he could not hold on, the waiter stopped in front of a simple courtyard.
The courtyard was not very large, and it was a little shabby compared to the exaggerated courtyard of the poison doctor, and it could only be as large as some of the poison doctor's many rooms.
The waiter turned to Gu Yan and said, "Miss Xiao should be inside." ”
As he spoke, he knocked on the door and shouted inside, "Is Miss Xiao here?" ”
One hand pushed the door open, and a woman in purple clothes stretched out her head to look outside, and when she saw Gu Su Liang and Gu Yan, she sighed.
When Gu Yan met the woman's face, she also looked at her in surprise.
It turned out to be the woman......
The woman who saved Gu Su Liang when she was assassinated by the man in black and isolated.
Gu Yan immediately gave the girl a simple salute, raised her eyes and looked at her quietly.
The girl got up and walked out, hugged her arms and looked Gu Yan up and down again, then turned her head to look at Gu Suliang again, and then asked, "Did you two look for me?" If I had known this, I should have brought it back to you at that time, and it would have saved me some time, and I had been back for half a day. ”
Gu Yan smiled, and the waiter continued: "This girl wants to come over and ask the girl if you have any blood grass here." ”
Xiao Hanlong's face changed suddenly, from the previous ease to nervousness.
"Why do you want that kind of thing, did anyone use their hearts and minds to recover their memories?" Xiao Hanlong asked coldly.
Gu Yan nodded.
Xiao Hanlong was stunned, and finally said helplessly: "What is the memory worth remembering?" But then again, I didn't have the blood grass in my hands, and on the day I saved you, it happened to be the day I went to pick the blood grass, but you also saw it and returned empty-handed. ”
Gu Yan's heart was gradually sinking, as if she couldn't accept this result.
"Where is the blood grass then, can I find it?" Gu Yan asked.
Xiao Hanlong turned his head to look at Gu Yan, who seemed to be a little contemptuous, and said: "I'm afraid you can't, it is estimated that it will be difficult for your small body to go to that mountain, but if you are not afraid of death and want to give it a try, it is okay." ”
She went into the house to look for it, and found a piece of paper from the room, raised it and said: "This time the blood grass will grow like this, there is the mountain at the junction of Hongzhou and the capital, as long as you find the highest mountain, look carefully on the top of the mountain, maybe you can still find it." ”
Gu Yan and Gu Su Liang exchanged glances with each other, and Gu Su Liang nodded and said, "Give it a try, girl, you can't just go home empty-handed, don't you say?" ”
Gu Su Liang just wanted to save her master, and she was the only one who saw how much her master cried for Gu Yan. Now that I finally have the opportunity to let Gu Chang repay Shen Qianshan, I think Gu Chang herself should be willing.
Gu Yan nodded, and the two of them prepared to go in the direction of the mountain.
Seeing that these two people had walked far away, the waiter asked Xiao Hanlong a little nervously: "Girl, do you really not have blood grass?" Now is the time for the blood grass to flourish, are you really going home empty-handed? ”
Xiao Hanlong's eyes lit up, he turned around and grabbed it in the basket behind him, raised his head and said, "I have a lot of them, and I picked all the blood grass on the mountain, they can't find it anyway." ”
The waiter was puzzled, this Xiao Hanlong is a very gentle woman, she was not so scheming before, going up the mountain to collect medicine is originally a very hard job, if Xiao Hanlong doesn't want to give that Gu Yan this blood grass in vain, just ask for more money, anyway, treat the disease and practice medicine, isn't it all for money in the end?
"Why are you doing that?" The waiter asked.
Xiao Hanlong's expression suddenly became very bad and said: "I asked the poison doctor before, this woman is the eldest lady of the Gu family in the capital, and she is the famous lord of Luoping. ”
"Oh, that's really a very powerful woman, I've heard a little bit about this woman." The waiter suddenly realized.
But Xiao Hanlong's expression became even more gloomy, and she said word by word: "This woman is the woman who indirectly killed the widow, if I knew that it was her, I would definitely not save her, but fortunately, now I have the opportunity, send them to the mountain, and fend for themselves, which can be regarded as my benevolence and righteousness." ”
After Xiao Hanlong finished speaking, he put away his expression and turned around and left the courtyard.
The waiter stood there thinking for a long time before he finally remembered.
This Xiao Hanlong has a very good relationship with the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Jiangnan before, the daughter of the rich businessman is named Su Shuangning, this Su family is a medical family, and her status in the capital is very high, and later the foundation of the capital was burned by a fire, not to mention how much was left, and the eldest lady of the Su family, Su Shuangning, was also sent to live in the house of the ninth prince in the capital.
These Nine Princes and Su Shuangning are cousins, it seems that Su Shuangning likes these Nine Princes, but at that time, the Nine Princes had a close relationship with this Luoping County Lord, and they couldn't tolerate a third person at all.
Later, I heard that it was Su Shuangning who caught the lord of Luoping and threatened the ninth prince, and the ninth prince was angry and personally sent the evidence of his uncle's family to the emperor, and the Su family fell apart overnight.
After the waiter carefully recalled these things, he was very strange in his heart, no matter how he thought about this matter, it was Su Shuangning's fault, Xiao Hanlong intervened in it, and there was no reason. Who can say clearly about emotional matters? It's a matter of the parties, and it's been so many years, so what does it matter who is right and who is wrong?
The waiter shook his head and left.
Xiao Hanlong sat quietly in the courtyard, looking at the medicinal herbs in front of him, always feeling as if he had done something wrong, but what was wrong?
Su Shuangning is her good friend, her family living conditions are not very good, when the Su family was in Jiangnan, the family had a big business, strong ability, and a good life, and they have always helped and supported themselves.
This kindness is something that he can't repay, but the Su family fell apart in an instant, and he couldn't understand the collapse of this family like his hometown.
If people are mixed with personal emotions, it is not easy to make correct judgments, and mistakes will inevitably occur.
But for the feelings of the Su family, she had to make a biased choice.
Didn't she know that Su Shuangning was wrong? But emotionally, it's not unacceptable to spend some thought and means.
She couldn't figure out how to think about it, so she angrily threw all the herbs in front of her to the ground, hugged her knees and cried.
Gu Yan and Gu Su Liang took the portrait of the blood grass this time and hurriedly marched up the mountain.
This mountain is too high, when you are at the bottom of the mountain, you must find the highest mountain, and then go to that mountain, if you choose a wrong mountain when you go down the mountain, then it must be wrong to go up, no matter how far you go, you can't find the blood grass.
The mountain that the two of them chose at the bottom of the mountain looked far away, and the old saying said that Yunwang Mountain ran a dead horse, so the two of them had to prepare enough dry food and water.
It took them a whole day to reach the halfway point of the mountain, and when they flashed around, they turned to look around, and they were suddenly a little flustered.
Gu Su Liang pointed to a mountain next to him and said, "Girl, what do I think...... Which mountain is higher than ours? ”
Gu Yan also turned her head, and sure enough, she had this feeling.
Because it is standing halfway up the mountain, it naturally feels that the mountain over there is a little higher, but if this is really the case, things will be too embarrassing, because after all, standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the distance between the two mountains is not far, but you can't fly over, you can only walk over step by step, which makes people collapse too much.
Gu Yan thought about it, closed her eyes, seemed to be making up her mind, and said to Gu Suliang, "Let's go." ”
After finishing speaking, he walked up by himself, but at this time, Gu Suliang stopped and looked at Gu Yan very firmly: "Girl, is Xiao Hanlong playing with us?" ”
"Why do you think that? We have no grudge against that woman for a long time, why should she play with us? ”
This doesn't make sense, if Xiao Hanlong is willing to sell Gu Yan this blood grass, no matter how much money Gu Yan will give her, but she didn't say the price, she just said no, then it should be really nothing, otherwise why did Xiao Hanlong save her before?
"She has said that there is no blood grass on this mountain, and people like her who are so familiar with this herb have said no, how can we people who are completely strangers to herbs find it?" Gu Su Liang said.
She felt that Xiao Hanlong's eyes were wrong when she looked at the girl, but she couldn't tell what was wrong, she just felt uncomfortable.
Gu Yan thought about it, and comforted: "Maybe we thought too much, let's go up." ”
Gu Su Liang knew that it was useless for her to think too much, although that illusion had been haunting her, but she was broad-minded and immediately forgot about this stubble.
In the evening, they finally reached the top of the mountain.
Standing at the highest point of the mountain, they looked around, and finally they were relieved, this mountain was indeed the highest, and there was no higher mountain around.
There is a path on the top of this mountain, and on both sides of the road are towering trees, and the path rises and falls, and at the top is a platform, on which there are natural uneven stones, which are warm by the sun.
