Chapter 10 There is no time to lose
She nodded firmly.
Ah Xian looked at Sister Su's firm eyes and said word by word: "If you believe me, I can help you." ”
"Ah Xian, can you really help me? I don't have anyone else to believe in but you. ”
With a bitter look on her face, Ah Xian gently walked to the window, her fingers poked into her ear, and she groped lightly.
When he turned his head again, Ah Xian's face suddenly had a lot of wrinkles, and he instantly seemed to be a teenager.
In Sister Su's frightened eyes, Ah Xian pulled violently, and a thin layer of things was torn off her face, revealing her true face.
Yin and yang face, the right half is as beautiful as ever, and the left half of the face is exactly the same as Zhou Jinming's.
Sister Su was shocked in her heart, "Ah Xian, how can you be like this?" ”
Ah Xian didn't respond, and began to slowly fade off her clothes, and when there was only one belly pocket left on her upper body, she turned around and exposed her back in front of Sister Su's eyes.
She saw a huge flower on Ah Qian's back, like a burning flame.
Apparently it was painted with cinnabar, and it can still be seen that the underside of the flower has no skin.
Ah Xian said: "After I became a yin and yang face, I cut off the skin behind me and made a fake face. If you want revenge, endure the pain of skinning. ”
If revenge can be taken, there is nothing that Sister Su can't bear.
She said categorically: "Ah Xian, as long as you can make me change my face and help me make a face, I can bear any pain." ”
Ah Xian got dressed, "First of all, I want to tell you that my face skin has to be soaked in medicine every night and used the next day, and if you want to go to the Zhou family to take revenge, you have to make a semi-permanent face skin, stick the skin on your back to your face, and make a new face, and it can only last for one year, and you need to take medicine every day to maintain the freshness of your skin during this year." ”
"I'm willing to do anything."
"You haven't listened to me yet, don't agree so quickly, the medicine you take every day in this year is called Dragon Musk, which has a musk in it, and you will be infertile for life if you take it for a long time."
Sister Su was silent for a moment, and then raised her head and said, "Ah Qian, can I still marry someone with this face in this life?" ”
"Sister Su, I know that your heart is full of resentment, but I want to tell you that revenge is not so simple. The power of the Zhou family is incomparable in Jinling City, if you want revenge, you must go to the Zhou Mansion, understand everything about the Zhou Mansion, including everyone, as well as the power of the Zhou family in the business and political circles, only by disintegrating their power, the Zhou family can be destroyed, and every detail will be wasted if you are not careful. ”
"Ah Xian, I'll be cautious."
Ah Xian turned around, and the thin layer of fake skin gently groped on his face for a while, and regained his beautiful face, "You rest for a few days, and when your body recovers, we will operate on you." ”
Every day, Ah Xian will cook food for Sister Su with the freshest ingredients, and drink three bowls of sour medicine a day.
Three days later, the surgery began.
The procedure involves cutting off the skin on the back with a sharp blade, then shaving off the scarred skin on the face, and gluing the skin on the back to the face.
Even though Ah Xian prepared the anesthetic in advance, in order not to affect the operation, the amount of anesthetic should not be too sufficient, and the process was still very painful, every knife was like a pain like cutting bones and removing flesh, and the sweat soaked Sister Su's body over and over again.
When Sister Su woke up, her head was tightly wrapped in a white cloth.
Ah Xian looked at her with a smile, "Sister Su, you are very strong and the operation was successful, but you need half a month of follow-up consolidation treatment." ”
In the following half a month, Ah Xian would teach Sister Su to read and write every day, and took out some medical books for her to study.
"The Zhou family started with a medicinal herb shop, you have to learn something, you can forget the pain on your face for the time being, maybe it will help you in the future in the Zhou family."
Seven days later, Sister Su opened the wrapped white cloth, and she saw that she had a completely different face from before, only her face was a little wrinkled, and similarly, there was an extra flower blooming like a flame behind her.
Ah Qian said: "You have changed your appearance, and you can't be called Sister Su anymore, and it seems better to be called Zisu." ”
Perilla is a traditional Chinese medicine, which does not have much requirements for the environment, can grow fearlessly, and is good for medicinal consumption, so it is a very useful medicine.
Another seven days passed, and Shisu's face was completely restored, and she was bright and delicate in the mirror, completely different from the previous delicate and lovely.
She barely left the house after being rescued by Ah Xian, and at this moment Zisu found out that Ah Xian's home was in a mountain col, and there was no one around her.
The scenery in the mountain col is beautiful, and in addition to reading and reading every day, Ah Xian will also tell her all kinds of historical stories.
For example, two peaches kill three soldiers, such as the story of thirty-six strategies.
Shiso grew up in the countryside and was very unfamiliar with these stories, but full of curiosity.
Ah Xian forced her to memorize these stories, saying that it would be of great help to her in the future.
Another half a month passed in such days, and Shisu learned a lot of things that she didn't know.
This morning, the autumn breeze was bleak, after Zisu got up, she felt cold and shivering, she found that Ah Xian was still sleeping, she cooked and called Ah Xian to get up, but found that Ah Xian was shivering in the bed.
"Are you sick?"
Zi Su put her hand against Ah Xian's head and found that her forehead was cold.
"Ah Xian, I'll help you find a Langzhong."
Ah Xian shook his head, "No, I'm an old problem, it's easiest to do this in spring and autumn, and it will be fine in two days." ”
"No, you must take medicine if you are sick."
Ah Xian smiled: "I can change your face, am I not Langzhong?" ”
"But doctors are not autonomous."
The stubborn Zi Su said and went out, and after walking for about a few miles, Sister Su came to a place where there were people.
She planned to ask the family where Langzhong was nearby.
There was only one old woman in the family, and after the old woman saw Shisu, she stared at Sister Su and asked, "I saw that you came out of the col?" ”
Zi Su told the truth: "Yes, I live in Ah Xian's house. ”
"Ah Xuan?"
The old woman's face became solemn, and she looked at Shiso from beginning to end, and her body subconsciously shrank back, almost falling.
Shisu grabbed the old woman, and the old woman grabbed her hand.
The old woman's trembling figure stopped, "If it's night, I must think you're a ghost, I touch your hand with a temperature, otherwise I'll think I'm a ghost during the day." ”
"Mother-in-law, what do you mean?"
"The house in the col has been uninhabited for a long time, and it is often haunted, and no one has ever dared to enter it, and I have never heard of a man named Ah Xian living there. Girl, be careful. ”
Zisu didn't believe that Ah Xian would be a ghost or something, she smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, Ah Xian is a person, she is still sick, do you know that there is Lang Zhong nearby?" ”
The old woman pointed to the Yangtze River not far in front of the door, "Looking for Langzhong, you have to go to Jinling City on the other side of the river, there is no Langzhong here, but today's weather suddenly becomes cooler, the wind is high and the waves are strong, I'm afraid there is no boatman to cross the river for you, girl, you wait for tomorrow when the wind stops to find Langzhong." ”
Shisu left disappointed, and when she returned to the col, she couldn't help but think of the old woman's words.
If you follow the old woman's words, Ah Xian is not a person, and Zi Su doesn't believe it anyway.
She walked into Ah Xian's residence in the mountain col, the house was still there, the house was empty, but Ah Xian was not in the room.
"Ah Xian! Ah Fiber! ……”
shouted more than a dozen times but no one responded, Zisu waited for a day, and still didn't see Ah Xian appear in the evening.
Ah Xian is really not human? But ghosts?
Shiso couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.
She couldn't help but touch her cheek, "Can this be made by a ghost?" ”
Even if Ah Xian is a ghost, she is also a good ghost, a poor ghost, she wants to take her hatred with Ah Xian, enter the Zhou Mansion, find out all the forces of the Zhou Mansion, and let the Zhou family fall apart.
Jinling City is still so prosperous, and the gate of the Zhou Mansion is still so majestic, and it is impossible to see how much darkness and sin are buried in it.
For Sister Su, who grew up in the countryside, Jinling is very unfamiliar to her.
If she wants to enter the Zhou family alone, it is even more difficult.
After wandering around the Zhou Mansion for a while, she thought of the broken temple in Suzaku Lane, which she was most familiar with, and unconsciously walked in front of the broken temple.
She looked in a trance, as if she saw her parents and younger brother sitting in the ruined temple, and saw her father and younger brother lying on the ground, and her mother feeding them water and drinking.
Now, there is no one in the ruined temple, and the tears in his eyes are rolling down silently.
"Hey, girl, what are you doing standing here?"
A young voice rang out behind him.
She turned around and saw a young man in a cyan robe, with a dignified appearance and an elegant temperament of a scholar.
"I'm looking for someone."
The young man showed a worried look: "Girl, you can't stay here for long, don't be seen by the people of the Zhou Mansion." ”
Zi Su replied unhappily, "This is a ruined temple, not the territory of the Zhou Mansion." ”
The young man explained: "A few days ago, there was a bloody case in the broken temple, and a family of three died. I heard that they stole the things of the Zhou Mansion and hid in the ruined temple, and then the robbers saw the property they had stolen, and when they saw the wealth, they killed the family of three and robbed the property. So the people of the Zhou Mansion have been sending people to monitor here, as long as the people who come here are either with the family of three or the robbers, you don't want to be found out by the people of the Zhou Mansion for no reason. ”
Her parents and younger brother were killed by Zhou Qingming, and she also made up a story of robbers to frame her parents and younger brother for a crime of stealing.
Shiso's fist was clenched tightly, and he didn't feel any pain when his nails were pinched into the flesh.
The young man urged worriedly, "Girl, you should leave quickly, in case you are seen by the people of the Zhou Mansion, it will be bad." ”
She glanced at the young man gratefully, "Thank you." ”
Leaving the ruined temple, Shisu began to ask the people around him where his parents' bodies had been taken by the people of the Zhou Mansion.
The residents who lived in Suzaku Lane were too frightened to respond when they heard such a question.
Half a day passed, and no one knew what Zhou Qingming had done with the corpses of her parents and younger brother.
The power of the Zhou Mansion can be seen in Jinling City, and Shisu feels a heavy sense of oppression, but she wants to find the bodies of her parents and younger brother and let them be buried in peace.
She couldn't do this little thing at the moment, and she felt extremely frustrated.
