Chapter 13: Visitation
The information Li Jiangwei read showed that Zhai Lianzhen's soul jade power had declined. Zhai Lianzhen's situation was even worse, as if something was absorbing the power of the soul jade.
"How! Can it be saved? ”
"I don't have experience with these things, so don't expect too much."
As soon as the words fell, Li Jiangwei manipulated the soul jade to float towards Zhai Lianzhen's heart.
Jiao Ling tried to figure out the principle of Li Jiangwei's treatment, staring at Li Jiangwei intently. However, Jiao Ling did not have Li Jiangwei's ability, and only with the naked eye, she could only see the suspended jade beads suspended, emitting a lustrous luster.
After a long while, Li Jiangwei finally took back the jade bead. Zhai Lianzhen, who was lying on the bed, looked better and no longer frowned.
"Let's leave it at that." Li Jiangwei rubbed her temples tiredly, "I don't know, I can only watch it again." If anything, come back to me. ”
Jiao Ling nodded hurriedly.
"Can you show me the bead?"
Li Jiangwei directly manipulated the jade bead to float to Jiaoling's palm, "I can't see anything, it looks like an ordinary jade bead." ”
After looking at this one for a long time, Jiao Ling said regretfully: "I really can't see anything...... If we knew how it worked, we could save more people. ”
When Jiao Ling handed the jade bead back to Li Jiangwei, she suddenly remembered something.
"I once heard from Lu Jiangfeng, you and she went to Yanluo?"
"Yes."
"Then do you know a restaurant called Yuelou?"
Li Jiangwei nodded.
"That's right, a few days ago, the people in the ground found some strange information. The younger brother of the former shopkeeper of Yuelou was hooked into gambling and owed a debt. ”
Just listening to Jiaoling's explanation, Li Jiangwei didn't notice anything strange, so she asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The culprit who led the man to become addicted to gambling was also among the missing people this time. He doesn't remember what happened after he disappeared, but he remembers what happened before he disappeared. ”
"What's the matter?"
"The man who hired him to approach the moon tower said ...... To take down the Moon Tower. ”
Hearing this, Li Jiangwei was a little excited: "If you just take the Moon Tower, it won't be strange." ”
"Indeed, that's what we thought. Later, one of the people in the ground asked curiously, asking how much was the moon building worth? Why did you go around in circles to calculate the moon tower? This question asks a big thing. ”
"Big deal?"
"The person behind that is going to the legend of the Moon Tower. Legend has it that during the catastrophe of the Moon Tower, the legendary Yanyue appeared and fulfilled a wish. ”
"Just for wish?"
Jiao Ling shook her head and said, "If it's for a wish, it's human nature." But the person behind it wanted Yuelou to disappear completely. ”
When Yue Kang heard this, he couldn't help but say more, "If you want to make Yuelou disappear, a fire is." ”
"They were afraid that a fire would burn and attract Yanyue in advance. said that it was from the person in the moon tower, and it was not easy to attract attention. ”
Li Jiangwei was shocked: "They ...... Afraid of the Moon? ”
Yue Kang listened, shook his head and said, "It's not so much that I'm afraid, it's more like I'm afraid." You are falling, have you checked that Yanyue? ”
Li Jiangwei raised the jade bead in her hand that had not yet been put away, and said, "This is what we found in Yanluo. ”
If you go to Yanluo a few months later at night, I'm afraid that Yuelou will not be able to protect it, and you won't be able to get useful information.
Thinking of this, Li Jiangwei was a little afraid, and unconsciously pinched the jade bead.
After the matter was done, Yue Kang sent Li Jiangwei back to Beijing. At the same time, in a village near the outskirts of Beijing, a woman carried a bamboo basket and hired a carriage to go to the capital.
This woman is none other than Zhu Xia.
Since the Zhuangzi in the suburbs, Xia Xia has not been in Beijing for a long time, and I don't know how my old friends are doing now. After returning to the capital, go straight to the Tea House.
More than two years have passed, and a group of people have changed in the Mingke Building, and some newcomers don't recognize Xianxia at all. Seeing that Ju Xia was carrying a bamboo basket covered with indigo tie-dyed cloth, he thought it was for the delivery of the Ming Kelou and put it in.
Ju Xia skillfully came to the back kitchen, lifted the curtain and walked in by himself. Before I had time to find someone, I heard Chen Pingyue commanding the back kitchen in an orderly manner.
There was less work in Chen Pingyue's hands, so Xuan Xia smiled and walked around behind Chen Pingyue and patted her on the shoulder.
"Pingyue!"
Chen Pingyue was startled and covered her heart. When Chen Pingyue saw the person coming clearly and wanted to hug it excitedly, she found the big bamboo basket that Ju Xia was carrying.
"Sent to us?"
Juxia nodded, found an empty spot and put the basket down.
"I've pickled some goose eggs lately, so I'll give you some to try."
"Is it the kind of salted goose eggs that produce oil?"
Ju Xia smiled and lifted the cloth covering the bamboo basket, revealing a goose egg with a beautiful color.
"Don't you know if you taste it?"
"Can you prepare her share for Miss Wu?"
"Of course I'm ready!" Ju Xia smiled: "She loves to eat these things I make the most, if she doesn't prepare them for her, she will inevitably find my Zhuangzi." ”
Ju Xia leaned into Chen Pingyue's ear and whispered, "I heard that the fifth lady of Uncle Anyuan's family is back, and her goose should also come back?" ”
"I only know that the fifth lady was admitted to the Jinshi, and I don't know if the goose came with me."
"Can you help me inquire? Our sisters are so familiar! Next time, I'll bring you a roast goose! ”
"You've been thinking about it for two years, haven't you forgotten?" Chen Pingyue said helplessly: "You have the kung fu to bring me the roast goose, it is better to send the roast goose to Miss Wu family." ”
"Where did I go to the Wu family?"
Not to mention Zhu Xia, it is difficult for Chen Pingyue and Fang Zhou to see Wu Shilu once.
"Why don't you ......" Chen Pingyue glanced at the goose eggs in the basket and suggested, "You send things directly to the county lord's mansion?" ”
"The county lord's mansion?" Ju Xia rarely returned to Yunjing in the past two years, but he also learned the news that Li Jiangwei had become the county lord in the letter. The county lord that Chen Pingyue can mention can only be Li Jiangwei.
"This ...... Is it convenient? ”
Chen Pingyue nodded and said, "The county lord of Chengwei often asks Limo to come over to buy food and go back, and when Limo comes, go over with her?" ”
"Can you go straight away?" Ju Xia was pleasantly surprised: "That's right! That fifth lady just happened to be admitted to the Jinshi, and I went over to give a congratulatory gift! ”
The two were talking, when someone suddenly lifted the curtain and entered the back kitchen, shouting at Chen Pingyue: "Someone from the county lord's mansion is here to buy a snack box." ”
"We got it!"
Chen Pingyue answered, and said to Ju Xia: "You go out and have a look, see if it's Limo!" If it's really her, it's a coincidence! ”
Ju Xia nodded happily, casually covered the cloth back on the basket, and hurriedly left the back kitchen. Go out and take a look, it's really pear ink!
"Limo!"
Limo is not good at words, and she didn't know what to say for a while, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she looked back at Xuan Xia with a smile.
