Chapter 11: Two Books of Account
After eating, the big guys are scattered, Iris is left to clean up the mess, and Kaede and Yuerong begin to arrange tomorrow's new materials. Liluo also went back to the room to count the treasures that came to replace today. Yueqi helped the owner back to the room, and the two sat down quietly. "Mother, you ask" Yueqi poured a cup of tea for the owner and said straight to the point.
The owner thought for a moment and said gently: "The dagger was bought, but you have this skill...... Mother is not for anything else, I'm really worried about you."
Yueqi looked at her worried gaze, and felt a lot of shame, so she said, "Mother, I don't know either." When I wake up, it seems to be. But mother, wouldn't it be better if I could protect myself?"
"Hey, it's all my mother." The owner said sadly: "It's naturally not a bad thing to have a little skill in this illusory world, and it's just in Fuyuan, after all, the law is in front, and no one will use mana to hurt others." But out of this abyss, if you encounter a spell that harms you, how can it be good? ”
The owner's worries, Yueqi can really understand, she doesn't know anything about this world, and even accepting the existence of spirits has been digested for a while. Seeing that she was silent, the owner thought she was scared, so he comforted her and said: "It's okay, my mother will send more people to find more elixirs and cheats to increase spiritual power for you, and when your foundation is laid, my mother will send you to find a more powerful master to teach you spells, and you can protect yourself." Mother has no other demands in this life, as long as you are safe and happy. It's all good," he said, took out the wooden box from yesterday's auction from his sleeve, and gave her the phoenix blood elixir.
"This Dan?" Yueqi thought that her mother spent a lot of money to buy this pill, and it hurt to think about it. The owner didn't care, and stuffed it to Yueqi, insisting that she take it. couldn't resist the owner, Yueqi could only swallow obediently. While swallowing, he thought, yes, this time this gold was really eaten by himself. It's heartache!! When this pill entered her stomach, a strange fragrance rose from Yueqi's throat This fragrance is so familiar, exactly the same as what she smelled in her dream before she fainted! Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and asked, "Mother, this elixir is made of phoenix blood?"
The owner was stunned by her question. He said with a sloppy eye: "Phoenix blood is just a trace of ingredients in the medicine, this pill wants to be refined, there are thousands of herbs, but the alchemists only hyped the phoenix blood as a gimmick in order to sell it at a good price."
"Ao~" Yueqi seems to understand the answer.
"You're tired from the day, wait a minute, let the iris help you bathe, and rest early." After speaking, the owner patted the back of Yueqi's hand, got up and walked out of the bedroom. Only Yueqi was left alone to think wildly. My mind is full of the bewitching white face and inky black eyes.
After a while, Iris and a few Xiao Si filled the bucket of bathing in the room with hot water, and put a soothing sachet, Yueqi sent them out, and stuffed the sachet back into Iris's arms, she really didn't like the smell, Iris was still unhappy! This little girl is really weird. Yueqi smiled knowingly, faded off his clothes and soaked into the hot water bucket, ah~ so comfortable~ Thinking of what happened in the past two days, Yueqi also felt interesting, but the phoenix eyes were full of tenderness in his mind, and he fell asleep when he thought about it, and the strange fragrance in his throat didn't feel as if it had risen to his head, and he felt more comfortable,
This strange fragrance made Yueqi inexplicably familiar with Che feel safe, and gradually closed his eyes and fell asleep. As soon as he fell asleep, he was awakened by an iris breaking through the door. It turned out that when Iris saw that she had not called her to clean up, he knew that she might have fallen asleep.
Iris wiped her and said angrily, "If I come in late, you'll be swollen, Miss!" Yueqi relaxed in the hot water for a while and became even more sleepy, ignoring Iris Rory's chattering, burrowing into the bed and falling asleep in a daze. Iris saw that she was really sleepy, and she couldn't bear to talk about her, so she cleaned up quickly. She had to pour out the water again, but after all this time, the water was still hot, which made her wonder......
In the dark night outside the building, only someone was indignant! The first time I used my spiritual power to boil bath water for someone else! But thinking of the long black hair and the reddish cheeks steamed by hot water, I couldn't help but feel two shy blush on my fair face. Gradually, the whole person drowned in the night......
The next day, Yueqi got up on his own early morning, and his clothes were ready to be worn, but his hair still couldn't be combed, so he had no choice but to wear his hair and let it fall apart. Hurried downstairs. In the lobby, the little ones were busy with their own affairs, and only the one named Yu'er still remembered. Yu'er saw her coming down from the upstairs and hurriedly glanced at each other, then lowered her head, as if she was afraid of her, seeing him like this, Yueqi was not easy to talk to, and walked straight to the counter.
Yuerong was sorting out the accounts there. Yueqi is dressed in azure green gauze today, with a freshwater rouge yarn streamer on her arm, wearing a green dress, with this touch of rouge, it has a charm, the white and tender neck is straight, the face is not powdered, but it is still bright and moving, the smooth and smooth hair is shiny like satin, there is no decoration, but it looks clean and clear like a hibiscus. Seeing her dressed like this, Yuerong couldn't help but smile and said, "Such a beautiful beauty, why did the hair come out, do you want me to help you with hairpins?" ”
Yueqi saw that Yuerong was also beautiful and elegant, so he didn't shirk and said: "Okay, good, Sister Yuerong, your aesthetics are so good, you must be the best to help me hairpin, in the past two days, I have been combed by the little bun of Iris, and my scalp is tight!"
Yuerong shook her head helplessly and smiled and said, "You, don't say it, come on." Yueqi hurriedly stood in front of Yuerong and smiled mischievously, and obediently sat on the stool behind the counter and let Yuerong play.
Yuerong's hand gently stroked Yueqi's black hair, and took out a wooden comb from under the counter to patiently help Yueqi comb it.
Yueqi couldn't stay idle, and just sat for a while, then bored and flipped up the account book on the cabinet. There were two books on the open ledger on the cabinet, one with an ink-colored cover with Ling, and the other with a red cover with silver. "Hey, Sister Yuerong, why are there two volumes?" Yueqi asked suspiciously.
"The black one was originally an account patronized by the spirits, and sometimes the money was not enough, so it was paid with spiritual power. The red one is the real money coming in. Yuerong patiently explained.
"Then Yuetoufang has been in business for more than 100 years, and I'm afraid that I have received a lot of spiritual power~" Although Yueqi still has no clear understanding of spiritual power, she thought about it, the silver money they accumulated is said to have been deceived by warlocks, and the spiritual power should have accumulated a lot over the years.
"Tell me more! You have been sick for so many years, if you are simply insane, you will pass out at every turn, and you will only wake up if you continue to renew your spiritual power into your body. Every time we fell asleep, we were scared to death. This spiritual power has been woe to you, where is there any accumulation, and some of the recent harvest is kept for you. ”
Yuerong told Yueqi in detail, although it was all because of her, Yueqi didn't hear Yuerong blame her at all, but patted her shoulder even more distressedly. Yueqi was very moved in her heart, such a group of beauties who are like flowers and jade, working hard with the owner for a hundred and ten years, are all for her, and they are all working hard for her wholeheartedly, which makes her heart very moved.
She grew up in an orphanage, and the children who complained about orphans should be gathered together for various irresistible factors, and they all had their own sadness, so they did not have a happy growth atmosphere like others. Until she is picked up on a rainy day, she begins a series of nightmares of training to be a killer.
So she has no friends, no family, and can only live alone in a muddle. Only when she grew up, performed tasks independently, and began to open NASA to communicate with people, and all kinds of people in the bar also made her cheerful. Although it has been a short time to be here, everyone's kindness to her is from the bottom of their hearts, even if she is not her! She was still immersed in the atmosphere and couldn't extricate herself.
