Chapter 39: Meeting Old Friends Again
Qiao Zimei was stunned for a moment, and replied again and again: "Okay, good, it must be." "Dare to love this fat man and have special fetishes.
The fat man saw that he was still quite interesting, and kindly pointed the way: "Know the way, right?" There are two alchemy rooms, one in the southeast and one in the northwest, you go separately to send them, go faster, don't delay. At the end, he touched Qiao Zimei's chin, "I'm waiting for you at the door!" ”
Qiao Zimei laughed a few times, and then walked quickly, with a burst of fiery eyes behind her, the fat man with a quirk was still staring at her.
She walked northwest, in a T-shaped aisle, flanked by houses of all kinds, all pitch black. She tentatively walked forward, and under the light of the gallery candles, she could see the names of each house, including the library, the weapons room, the cast iron room, and some of them were unnamed, probably the place where the alchemist rested.
As soon as the line of sight slipped, the three words of Tibetan Dan room came into view, Tibetan Dan room? She had a feeling, and the Curse Worm Pill was placed inside.
She listened outside the door, and it was quiet inside, and when she pushed the door, she didn't lock it, and went in sideways.
She blew a fire fold, and saw that there were some medicine bottles and jars all in it, and there were all kinds of them. She hurried to rummage through it, and after looking for herself for a long time, she finally found a dozen bottles with the words "curse insect pills" on them, she picked up one and pulled out the stopper, and a fishy smell of medicine wafted out, and she quickly stuffed the stopper back.
Probably that's it, she put the bottle and the fire fold in her bosom, opened the door a crack, and saw that there were no pedestrians outside the door, so she tiptoed out.
"What are you doing in there?"
Suddenly, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old alchemist stood around the corner with a plate of medicine bottles, and as soon as he came out of the corner, he saw a person sneakily coming out of the Tibetan pill room.
Qiao Zimei reacted immediately and smiled dryly, "The slave is the one who delivered the food, and he went to the wrong room." ”
The man was suspicious, "Then you hurry up and send it, waiting for you." ”
Qiao Zimei smiled and walked away with the food box, and suddenly heard the fat man exclaim: "Ruozhao, catch him!" ”
Qiao Zimei was startled, only to see that the fat man was followed by a few guards, blocking the way out. It was probably the two minions who were knocked unconscious by them who woke up. In a hurry, she threw away the food box and ran inside.
The little alchemist was stunned holding the tray, the fat man walked over and took the tray in his hand, and slapped him so that he couldn't stand on his feet and fell to the ground, he held the hot little face and stared at the fat man.
"Phew!" The fat man spat at him, put the tray back in his hand, and said viciously, "I'll clean you up later!" ”
Qiao Zimei kept running forward, this alchemy hall was terrifyingly big, how could there be houses everywhere, and she was dizzy when she ran.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from the room and pulled her in, and it was so dark that it was impossible to see who it was. The man pressed her against the wall, put his index finger over her lips, and whispered, "Shhh The warm breath in her mouth hit her face.
Qiao Zimei gradually adapted to the darkness and saw that this person was Ji Erchun. At this time, he wore a yellow robe, abandoned the wizard's costume that he had used to wear and wear, and his hair was very handsome.
Hearing the pursuers outside, she pushed him away, "Why are you here?" ”
Suddenly, a black object glowing blue slammed onto his shoulder, and she squinted to see that it was the black cat, and instantly understood that it was the cat that had brought him here.
"Biruo?" A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I, I'm here ......" Qiao Zimei couldn't say why she came for a long time, needless to say, people with a discerning eye knew that she broke into the alchemy hall at night to steal things, and he was knowingly asking her to make things difficult.
"Did you get it?" He asked again.
Qiao Zimei was stunned and nodded awkwardly. I thought, yes, I'm here to steal from you.
Ji Erchun took her hand, "Come with me." ”
"Where are you going?" Qiao Zimei pulled out her hand, could it be that she was taken to be punished? So why save her?
Ji Erchun has a good temper, "I'll take you out." ”
Qiao Zimei followed at this time. He took her out of the alchemy hall through the window. There were a number of guards hurrying past along the way, and she had been following Ji Erchun closely, and no one doubted her.
The commander of the forbidden army hurried to meet him and saluted: "Your Majesty, there are assassins in the palace, please send you back to the palace." As he spoke, he glanced at the servant born behind His Majesty, with a mustache, this servant did not understand etiquette so much, and he did not salute when he saw him.
Qiao Zimei hung his head very low, and the assassins he was talking about probably meant her and Jin Yichen. I don't know what Jin Yichen's current condition is, his spiritual power is strong, so he shouldn't have to worry.
"Assassins?" Ji Erchun paused, "Go to Huaqing Palace." ”
Qiao Zimei was thinking about going to the Pear Garden, why did she suddenly jump out of her way to take them to Huaqing Palace!
She followed them to the Huaqing Palace, and the commander of the forbidden army glanced at her again and retreated.
The Huaqing Hall was magnificent, she didn't have the heart to appreciate it, and looked around vigilantly, "Ji Erchun, what are you bringing me here for?" ”
Ji Erchun dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs, flicked the hem of his clothes, sat in the red sandalwood chair, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said: "I don't bring you here, I'm afraid that others will be suspicious." ”
"You're afraid of a little Forbidden Army Commander?" There was sarcasm in her eyes. Presumably, the commander of the forbidden army is the person of the empress, and it seems that the empress is staring at him very closely.
When Ji Erchun heard this, his hand holding the ear cup tightened. Slowly put down the ear cup, pushed the gold medal that was placed on the table forward, glanced at her lightly, and picked up the ear cup again, "Go out with the gold medal, no one dares to stop you." ”
She was about to step forward to get it, but she saw a white shadow suddenly blocking her, and her tone was very surprised: "Ah Chun? Are you the Son of Heaven? ”
Qiao Zimei was overjoyed, it was Jin Yichen, he really came to save himself! However, he actually knew Ji Erchun?
Jin Yichen went to the pear garden, but when he didn't see her, he went around looking for her, and saw that she had followed the Son of Heaven in a yellow robe into the hall, so he followed them into the hall.
I only felt that there was a small black mole between the eyebrows of this Tianzi, some faces were familiar, under the reflection of the moonlight, there was half a piece of broken jade hanging on his waist, and the jade was carved with cherry blossoms, he suddenly remembered that this person was an orphan A Chun he knew before he was adopted by Nan Fengjun!
They were about the same age, and they met when they were seven years old, when Ah Chun stole a steamed bun and kicked over the fruit of a stall to form a barricade to save Ah Chun's flesh and skin, while he himself was beaten to the point that his flesh was broken. Later, the two became good friends, and they supported each other to live in the ruined temple for a few years, and their relationship at that time was like brothers.
Ji Erchun looked at Jin Yichen very suspiciously.
Jin Yichen was very happy to meet his old friend again, "I'm Ah Hei, don't you recognize me?" ”
When Ji Erchun heard this name, his face suddenly turned pale, his pupils contracted, his lips trembled slightly, and he couldn't speak, like an antelope meeting a leopard, and the ear cup in his hand was also shattered on the ground.
Qiao Zimei couldn't help but laugh, Ah Hei? His skin is whiter than hers now, how can he be called black like that fat cat?
"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with you?" The palace maid outside heard the strange noise and bowed to the door.
Ji Erchun opened his pale lips slightly and said, "It's okay, it's just that I broke a cup." ”
"Please let the slave go in and clean it up, so as not to accidentally injure the dragon's body." The palace maid was very anxious.
Ji Erchun looked at Jin Yichen with complicated eyes, Jin Yichen was interested, and said, "Ah Chun, let's talk another day." When he had finished speaking, he led her out of the window.
He meets old friends by chance, and Edgeworth's journey is very cheerful.
Qiao Zimei finally couldn't help it, and asked with a smile: "Ji Huajun, why are you called Ah Hei?" ”
Jin Yichen didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this name, and only said: "Ah Hei was my name when I was young, I had no father and mother since I was a child, and I was picked up and adopted by an old woman, my mother-in-law was illiterate, so I casually changed my name to Ah Hei, but my mother-in-law died of illness when I was four years old, and I was a child who had no one to rely on, so I could only live by picking up food." It was dirty, sunburned, thin and dark, and it was worthy of the name. ”
She was silent, it turned out that the name had such a poignant story, and she really couldn't see that he had suffered so much at such a young age.
Jin Yichen continued: "Later, I met Ah Chun, he was very pitiful, thin and cowardly, often bullied by older children, beaten and robbed, that time I saw that he was really hungry, and stole steamed buns, I helped my leg, and was beaten for half a month, fortunately, I also made him a friend." But then for some reason he said goodbye, and half of the jade pendant on my body was gone. When we meet in the future, we must ask why. ”
She thought, disappeared, probably because Ji Erchun had never seen anything good, so he stole the jade pendant. He really grew up from a bad child, and he became the son of heaven because of his fate. But as a prince, you have to suffer like this since you were a child, and you have suffered a lot!
He was silent for a moment, and added, "But it's also very difficult to see him now." ”
They returned to the Wuwu Mountains and gave the antidote to the ghost doctor. It took the ghost doctor a day and a night to finally develop an antidote, which is really the antidote that can relieve toxicity.
Hua Yingrong did not feel unwell after taking the antidote, and the demon spirit blocked by the poison could also run freely.
She thanked the ghost doctor for her kindness, and sighed to herself, "Yingrong has been developing for several months, but she can't make an antidote, and you actually made it in one day!" ”
The ghost doctor smiled smugly, "Rest well, rest well!" ”
Hua Yingrong was happy for a moment, and her expression darkened again, "Yingrong still has something to ask for." ”
Qiao Zimei immediately guessed what she wanted to say, and sure enough, she only listened to her: "Yingrong has a friend whose eyes are dead, dare to ask Master Nan Weng if there is a way?" ”
The ghost doctor shook his head, "You also know medicine, your eyes are already fragile, and there is absolutely no hope that they can be cured if you die." ”
Hua Yingrong pondered for a moment before saying what she thought in her heart: "According to legend, you have a treasure called fairy glass, which can make people bright again." ”
The ghost doctor sighed when he heard the word Xianli.
Hua Yingrong saw that his face was embarrassed, the fairy glass was a treasure, and no one was willing to give it away at will, so he didn't ask anymore.
After dispersing, Qiao Zimei quietly asked Jin Yichen about the origin of the fairy glass and why the ghost doctor was reluctant to take it out to save people.
Jin Yichen said: "Legend has it that Xianli was originally the eye of a little fairy in the heavenly realm, and later the little fairy made a big mistake and dug out his eyes to apologize. Later, this thing became a treasure, and the emperor gave it the name fairy glass. At the end, he added a deep sentence, "Master is not reluctant, but he can't help it." ”
Qiao Zimei was surprised, the heavenly realm was so terrifying, and if he made a mistake, he had to apologize with such an extreme method! I asked the reason why I couldn't help, but I didn't know why, but I couldn't ask why, so I had to give up.
