Chapter 23: Throwing Pills
After calculating the time, she hadn't been to Yu Jiang City for more than a month, and she needed Xinyu to seal the wound Gu recently, but she lacked the ice lotus, and when Qiu Shui came, the two of them decided to go to the city to buy some the next day.
The next day, they carried two small baskets of Gu medicine to Yu Jiang City. Because there were no horses, the two walked there. It took two hours to arrive on a snowy day.
First, he sold Gu medicine at the medicinal herb shop, exchanged it for silver taels, and then bought a few ice lotuses from Uncle Changshan, who sold ice lotuses. When passing by A-Niang's clothing shop, Qiu Shui went in and bought two new robes for Zhu Yi and A-Niang. Zhu Yi's winter robe is mostly white, and this time he chose a red, Qiu Shui looked at it, and he was old-fashioned.
On the way back, Zhu Yi threw the empty basket to Qiu Shui, and couldn't help but be happy and beautiful in the new robe. smiling heartily, a pair of round apricot eyes are very smart, and tear sockets appear from time to time, looking so comfortable and free.
The snow was all over the sky, like goose feathers flying, Qiu Shui watched Sa Huan's Zhu coat and down hat half fall, and the umbrella was not supported, so he summoned her to his side, patted the snow on the brim of her hat, put on a velvet hat, and forcibly pulled her under the umbrella.
Zhu Yi wanted to break free, Qiu Shui suddenly asked her: "Zuo Chu went to find A-Niang a few days ago, and now he is building a house near your residence, have you thought about the purpose of his doing this?" ”
A cold wind passed, and the falling snow was blown in all directions, and I couldn't help but sneeze, "Look at my pathetic." She said: "People originally checked Gu to cure my eyes and brought me to sweep the grave by the way, but it turned out that I was still alive, so take pity on me." Maybe he feels indebted to me, and now he wants to do something about the law. If that makes him feel better, let him be. The tip of her little nose was red from the cold, she rubbed it, and then said, "I just want to find out the Gu for him as soon as possible, so as to help him regain his sight as soon as possible, and I don't owe him anything." ”
Qiu Shui glared at her: "If you want me to say, you don't owe him at all." He wasn't blind because of you. ”
"Alas, of course I know......" Zhu Yi sighed, after putting on the velvet hat, the exhaled haze condensed on the eyelashes and bangs, she could see the white crystal on the eyelashes in the blink of an eye, and couldn't help poking it with her hand, "Blindness has nothing to do with me, but it is my business to delay his regain of his sight." ”
Qiu Shui slapped her hand down, hid it in a thick robe, and listened to her say quietly: "The trouble is that the Gu that has not been taken for more than two years is not to mention in the body, and it has lost its medicinal properties, so it is not easy to check......
Qiu Shui was speechless.
A few years ago, on the day Zuo Chu sent the drunk Zhu Yi back to the room, he did hear Zhu Yi talking nonsense about planting Gu for Zuo Zhu, and then Zuo Chu snorted for a long time before he came out of the room covering his wounds.
Zuo Chu didn't say anything at that time, Xu was injured in his eyes later, and he couldn't heal for a long time, so he knew that it was related to Gu.
Because of this, Qiu Shui turned a blind eye and never objected to her being Zuo Zhu's Gu. But the construction of the house really raises doubts about its motives.
Zhu Yi ran away, and the red figure was particularly conspicuous in the snow curtain. The figure ran and stopped, its head jerked, and it sneezed again. Qiu Shui sighed and smiled.
"Brother, hurry up, let's run, maybe we can get home before dark." She shouted ahead.
"Here we are." He deserves to arrive.
ran forward, held the umbrella for her again, and was pushed away......
When I got home, it was already dark for half an hour. Zhu Yi was draped in a thick three-layer winter robe, lying on Qiu Shui's back and falling asleep. In the past, when he came back late from Yu Jiangcheng, he carried her back on his back, looking at the lonely and dark wooden house, always sad. This time, he still carried her on his back, but he looked at the bright and extinguished fire in the big hut, which was not moving, but in the end he was at ease.
In the final analysis, it's always good to be more lively around Zhu Yi. He thought so.
Someone had already shouted, "Miss Zhu is back." Zuo Chu was approached by someone, and Qiu Shui said with a cold face: "She's asleep, don't bother her." He went into the house and put her on the bed, and when everything was checked, he went back to the stockade.
On the second day, Zhu Yi woke up at the hour and went to make medicine and drink it as usual. However, when he took the Gu medicine, he found that the jar containing the Sleep Killing Gu Pill was empty. She was startled, and hurriedly went to look through the new medicine that was being bred, and the others were still there, only the jar of the Sleeping Killing Gu had already been emptied!
My mind went blank...... In retrospect, the day before yesterday, Zuo Chu asked her to stop taking medicine, but she didn't respond, and now she has been ransacked?
Angry and unceremoniously knocked loudly on Zuo Chu's door, Zuo Chu opened it for her. Even if you don't look at her, you can feel the anger around you. He asked unusually gently: "Do you think it is appropriate to enter a man's room early in the morning who has not yet bathed?" ”
Listening to his light tone, Zhu Yi's chest was very blocked, "So Mr. Zhu took advantage of my absence yesterday to enter my room without permission and steal my Gu medicine, is it appropriate?" ”
Looking down and groaning, he said, "I thought ...... Appropriate. He still spoke warmly, "If you don't want to stop taking medicine, I'll help you." ”
"You ......" Zhu Yi was so angry that his two hands were clenched into fists, raised to his waist and abdomen, and he was exhaling. It was a small action she loved to do when she was angry, as if she was going to speak with her fists at any moment.
He couldn't ignore this little action, and he couldn't help but laugh, turned around, turned his back to her, and said, "I guess, you raised your fist again." ”
Zhu Yi looked down, immediately let go of his hand, and said sullenly: "Mr. Chu, why do you like to be nosy?" Before I did it, I was afraid that I would die in front of you, and you wouldn't blink an eye, would you? She didn't bother with anything else, she was only angry about the loss of the medicine, and her words were a little unstoppable.
Sure enough, after hearing this, a different color appeared on Zuo Qi's face. He touched the wooden stool and sat down, Fang Cai's joy disappeared, he closed his eyes, and said, "No, you don't know, how many people died that day." ”
When Zhu Yi heard what he said, he reacted, remembered the two fires, and lowered his voice a little: "Don't talk about the old things, now talk about the fact that the Sleeping Killing Gu was taken away by you." ”
"I've thrown it away." He responded calmly, his starry eyes narrowed slightly, "You didn't use medicine last night, didn't you sleep peacefully?" ”
Zhu Yi was angry, that was the medicine she saw as a life-saving medicine, and he said to throw it away?
"One or two days is not enough, but no more than three days......," she frowned, "no more than three days, I tried." ”
"Don't be afraid, Zhu Yi." For the first time, Zuo Chu said to her seriously in a seductive tone: "You were alone before, but now I am with you." ”
Zhu Yi was defeated, and muttered: "How do you want to accompany Mr. Zhu?" I am a hopeless person. ”
They both knew what it meant, and the silence in the room was uncomfortable, but neither knew what else to say next. Zhu Yi smiled bitterly, and when the nightmare struck again, that kind of panic and helplessness was only borne by herself, and no one could do it for her.
Zuo Chu's heart ached, and he subconsciously stroked his chest. Her nightmare, isn't it his?
Zhu Yi noticed his subconscious movements, and said unenthusiastically: "The last knife wound should also be good, right?" Tomorrow, I'll check the Gu for you. ”
He far-fetched laughed, "Okay." ”
