Chapter 34: Gone Away (3)
Following the instructions of the Zuo Protector, I effortlessly found a secluded thatched cottage, deep in the bamboo forest on the outskirts of the city, with curling smoke over the fence. There is a person standing under the tree, playing the flute, the tune is mournful and beautiful, and there is a faint hint of weirdness, not like the sound of the Central Plains.
I got closer, and the flute stopped abruptly, and a charming and cold woman's voice came from the leaves: "Who?"
I politely replied, "Come and seek healing." ”
"Interrupt my tune and want me to heal?" She snorted coldly, and her words were not close to humanity at all: "No, get out." ”
I pronounced the name of the Protector, "I am his friend, and he asked me to come to you." After that, he threw the copper coin in his hand to her, she caught it from afar, looked at it carefully, and his tone changed, mixed with a faint sourness: "Yo, you still remember me." ”
"Then come with me."
At this time, she turned out of the leaves, wearing a gorgeous purple dress, with a towering silver ornament on her head, one end raised high, like a silver phoenix spreading its wings, wearing silver jewelry under her ears, chest, waist, feet and wrists, or like butterflies flying, or like delicate flowers blooming, with the movement of a crisp sound of tinkling and clattering, the makeup is thick and charming, the body is embossed, and there is a unique exotic atmosphere. It is different from the delicate and gentle Qixiu I have seen before, the thousands of flowers with clear books, and the elegant and elegant long song woman, and it is a beautiful and stunning appearance that turns all beings upside down.
She opened the door, and I followed in, and there were stoves on the floor, soup of unknown color, and some traces of stored poison.
She lay down on her side on a backrest bench, facing me, with one hand on her chin, her posture and demeanor were indescribably enchanting and charming, and her mouth was also in a very tempting tone: "Say, Central Plains people~ What kind of stubborn illness do you have?" ”
I spread out the crumpled but unbroken note in my arms and handed it over: "I wonder if the doctor can cure this disease?" ”
She stretched out her slender hand to take the note, swiped it roughly, and laughed: "It's a problem." ”
I couldn't help but feel like I had been disappointed a million times before.
The tail of her gorgeous eyes twitched, "However, there is still a way." ”
I immediately looked up, and hope reignited in my eyes: "Really? I've been visiting famous doctors all over the world and I'm helpless, do you have a way? ”
She scoffed: "You Central Plains people see a doctor, abide by the rules and regulations, and treat common diseases at a glance, how can you do this kind of strange disease?" ”
Her lips opened slightly, her tone rose, and she spit out the most wonderful fairy music in the world: "Have you heard of it, Phoenix Gu?" ”
The first Gu of the Five Poisons Sect in Southern Xinjiang? It is said that it can live the flesh and bones of the dead, and once the Gu is planted, it will add another life. I have always been skeptical of this kind of folk rumor, which has been passed on by word of mouth and distorted at will, but when I look at it today, it is true?
She seemed to see through what I was thinking, and spoke: "Phoenix Gu, Nirvana, life and death in an instant, but it's not really that easy. Otherwise, the world will inevitably rush to it, how can it only be spread in the market. ”
"Changing one's life for one's life is really the essence of the Phoenix Gu. It is necessary to use the essence and blood of the eight veins of the Qi Meridian as a guide to raise Gu worms and apply them to the patient's body. If the person who is the usher is an ordinary person, he will definitely die, but if he is a person with strong military force and strong internal strength, he can save his life by cultivating a good life. But since then, the martial arts have been lost and reduced to ordinary people, you have to think about it. ”
Without hesitation, I immediately responded, "Okay." ”
She glanced at me with a little surprise and smiled faintly: "Then I'll prepare and go with you in three days." ”
"Thank you."
"Don't thank me. He ......" The words swirled between her tongues, and she swallowed them back, closed her eyes and waved her hand: "That's it, you can go." ”
I bowed my hand slightly, turned around and left.
……
Cao Yifeng and the others arranged a secret and safe place for us, and retreated to ten zhang away according to the intention of the five poisonous doctors, so as to ensure that no one disturbed them during these twelve hours. I also took the time to go back to Junshan and explain the future to my apprentice, and he kept asking me what was going on, and I only said that he would know soon.
If I tell him my plan, he will definitely stop it with all his might, and I really can't stop him now.
There is a faint apology lingering in my heart, so let's make up for it in the future.
Luoyang tonight is shrouded in a thin layer of night rain, the jackdaws on the barren grass and shallows scream, the lonely city is closed and difficult to escape the wind and rain, and the ice is cold to the bone. There were two beds side by side in the humble room, one for him and the other, and I sat at the head of the bed, listening to the sound of the rain outside the window, knocking into my heart bit by bit.
I reached out and gently stroked the frost that had condensed on his brow, the touch from my fingertips was cold and not like a living thing, but after tonight, I would probably be as full of vitality as I was young.
But at that time, was I still qualified to stand by his side?
I know very well in my heart that this awe-inspiring martial arts is my only pride, and if I am stripped away, I will be useless. And the wife of the owner of the Tibetan sword should be a well-read, virtuous lady, housekeeper, husband and child, generous, advance and retreat, definitely not like me, wanton indulgence, no rules, how can there be a little bit of a woman.
Even if I don't care about other people's cold words, Ye Shuyun will be very stressed with the elders in the clan.
I took his hand and traced the familiar cocoons of the sword in the dim candlelight, the intricate texture of the palm, and intertwined his fingers with warmth.
Or...... It's good to exchange the rest of your life for a long-term relationship.
At this moment, the Five Poisons Medicine Woman walked in, everything was ready, I turned over to the bed, closed my eyes, and she picked up a touch of blood and painted it on the eyebrows at the end of her eyes, outlining a mysterious pattern.
Since then, he has been displaced, and his life is like a fly.
