Chapter 42: Sweet as Sugar
"Well, what about them?" She was embarrassed to ask Pei Heng directly where he went.
"The two princes and the general have already set off to return to the court, and as for Master Pei, they have already packed their things and are waiting for the girl."
What the? She looked at the hour, and sure enough, it was already three poles of the sun, and she slept until this time......
Pei Heng was reading a book in the carriage at this time, thinking back to yesterday, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly. Looking at the hour, I couldn't help but sigh that she could really sleep, but when I thought about it, she might be really tired. In the past few days of the war, she has really suffered a lot, taking care of the wounded day and night, so he asked those maids not to disturb her, and waited for her to wake up naturally before washing and setting off.
"My lord, Miss Lin is here."
He listened, said yes, and then heard their conversation outside.
"Miss Lin, the adults have been waiting inside for a long time."
She was about to speak when she heard someone inside say, "Don't come here yet." Lin Peijiu looked at Chu Jing and smiled awkwardly, and then got into the carriage. Chu Jing looked aware and began to drive the carriage back to the court.
Lin Peijiu went in and saw him sitting on the couch reading a book casually, so he didn't get angry, "Why don't you wake me up." ”
Pei Heng put down the book, looked up at her and smiled, then took her hand and pulled her into his arms, letting her sit on his lap, "I see that you are very tired, I want you to sleep more." ”
She was speechless for a while, her face couldn't help but turn red, and she pouted as if she was coquettish, "That can't condone me until everyone is gone." ”
He put her aside and said solemnly: "That's a pet, not a connivance." After speaking, he leaned down, Lin Peijiu stepped back, his index finger against his lips, and said coquettishly: "There are people outside." ”
Pei Heng was timid, blew softly, and flicked it on her head again, "What do you think, there is something on your face, I'll blow it for you." ”
She didn't believe it, Lin Peijiu got up, sat next to him and watched him read.
After about five days of carriage travel, they came to a strange and familiar place. The familiarity lies in the fact that this is Xijing City, and the place where they are is something she has never seen or even heard of, this is the strangeness.
Pei Heng picked her up from the car and took her hand into the tiled house.
"Where is this?" She couldn't help but ask.
"You'll know when you get there."
"Won't you go back to the palace to report on your work first?"
"No, I'll leave it to the prince."
Chu Jing was waiting outside, and they walked straight in, and the closer they got to the house, the more they could ask about the smell of food, and there was the smell of cumin of meat, and she couldn't extricate herself. Could it be that this is a restaurant, but if you think about it carefully, which restaurant is still so deserted in this deep mountain and old forest, she couldn't figure it out until she went in and saw that person.
He was an old man who looked very young, as for how old he was, Pei Heng hadn't told her, but he looked like a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties. He was dressed in a white robe, standing in front of the stove without any pollution, his black hair was half-draped, and he was gently curled with a white hosta behind him, and he always kept his head down and did not look at them until he knew that they were coming, and said: "If you attack so suddenly, if you are not just in time for the meal, are you still going to let me entertain the guests?" ”
Pei Heng led Lin Peijiu over, and his tone was full of respect, "Master said that he laughed, and the apprentice suddenly remembered it today, so he came to visit rashly, for fear that he would disturb Master's cultivation, and asked Master not to blame." ”
Master? Oh yes, I had heard of it in Xijing at the beginning, his master was a great person, what was it called...... Changyi Immortals. Although when she first heard this name, she thought that this should be a swaggering Taoist priest, after all, the immortals are somewhat superstitious. But now that I look at it, it's different from what she thought, where is a Taoist priest, obviously a beautiful man, or a ...... Blind ....... She looked at his eyes closed, and felt a little wrong, and sure enough......
"Someone in vain?" Changyi put down the knife in his hand, walked over and said with a smile.
"Yes."
"It's a woman." Chang Yi still smiled.
"Yes."
"It's her." Chang Yi still smiled.
"Yes."
Three in a row is, are they playing dumb riddles? What do you mean, what do you mean by her?? He wouldn't know her, would he......
"What's the girl's name?" Changyi asked.
Lin Peijiu glanced at Pei Heng and said in a proper manner: "The little woman's name is Lin Peijiu, the son of Piliu, and she scolds me Peijiu." ”
Lin Peijiu...... A good name, where is home, and how old is it? ”
Lin Peijiu was overwhelmed by the question for a while, so she had to answer truthfully, "Home to Yingdu, Fang Ling is twenty." ”
Twenty, the time is just right.
"Then ......" Before he could ask, he heard Pei Heng shout: "Master." ”
Chang Yi smiled, and then stopped asking, "Okay, okay, you protect your shortcomings, and you don't listen to Master anymore." ”
"Why did Master say this, didn't the apprentice find it and bring it to you?"
"Yes, yes, you're right, then take this girl to the front hall and sit down, I'll make a meal for you."
Lin Peijiu walked over and hurriedly said, "I can also cook, I'll help you." ”
Changyi picked up the knife and began to cut the fish, and when he saw the little girl say this, he immediately smiled, "You are a guest, how can there be a reason to let the guest do it, Huaqi, don't hurry up." ”
Pei Heng stepped forward to pull her away, and didn't forget to tell her on the way: "He is a pedantic old monster, these things related to etiquette and morality, let's follow them, he can handle it alone." ”
Old monster, he obviously looks young, "......"
Seeing her babbling, he knew what she was going to say, "He was blind a long time ago, and now he has long been used to it, otherwise how do you think he can survive here alone." ”
Lin Peijiu was angry and obediently followed him.
"But who the hell is he?"
"My savior, someone more important than my parents." He lowered his eyes as if he had thought of something.
Lin Peijiu saw that he didn't speak, so he didn't ask any more.
Pei Heng still remembered that when he found him after his reincarnation, he was blind, and when he asked him, he just said lightly: "It's the same as your sense of taste, but what I lost was my eyes." ”
Yes, Hades has the rules of Hades, and if you get what you want the most from Hades, you have to pay a certain price, he is just a taste, and Zhong Qing is so cruel to him that it robs his eyes. At that moment, he felt that what he owed him was something he could no longer pay off.
This kind of injury accompanied your birth, it is already deep-rooted, and it is impossible to cure it if you use the best medicine in the world to rejuvenate your hands, which is why he never insists on treating him without a sense of taste, and he is not sad. It was also when he knew that she cared about this matter very much, so he added that page to the medical book. There is no such thing in the world as a reminder, but he fantasized it for her...... She was still stupidly asking everywhere.
