Chapter 116: Life Experience
"I'll take a look, how is your Xiyan poison refining?"
"The effect is very good, it should speed up the process, and it can be refined tomorrow." Mu Yun said.
Nian Tong's heart tightened, she guessed that it was soon, but she didn't expect it to be so soon...
"You have merit in refining medicine, and I will go to Master Xu Zhuang to ask for merit for you." Nian Tong looked at the sky outside and said, "It's already dusk, haven't you gone to dinner yet?" ”
"I called someone to send it."
"The kitchen is far away from the Dan Pharmacy, and now it's cold, and when it's delivered, the food is also cold, you might as well eat it yourself, it's only a quarter of an hour, isn't it?" Nian Tong pretended to say casually.
"I must complete the task assigned to me by the owner carefully, and I can't slack off."
Nian Tong smiled lightly: "Slack? You are so conscientious, and the owner of the village is too late to praise you, how can he punish you? If you don't believe me, I'll go with you. ”
"Mu Yun didn't dare, but Mu Yun really didn't want to go to the kitchen to eat." He said very mechanically. Nian Tong looked at him, and sometimes even felt that his younger brother, who saved people, was more cold-blooded and ruthless than his murderous brother.
"Then, I won't force you anymore." Nian Tong said that she was afraid that if she said more, it would arouse his suspicion.
Nian Tong pretended not to care and looked around in the pill hall, and suddenly saw a figure flashing outside the window, so she subconsciously shouted: "There are people outside!" ”
At this time, Mu Yun stood up vigilantly, looked out, Nian Tong's mind suddenly flashed something else, he didn't have time to think about it carefully, and took advantage of the moment when Mu Yun turned his head to look outside, and threw the herbs in his sleeve into the alchemy furnace. The moment she saw the herbs being swallowed, her accelerated beating heart was finally relieved.
She quickly followed Mu Yun and said, "Who is outside?" ”
"I didn't see it." Mu Yun said.
"Is it this bird on the ground?" Nian Tong saw that a cute white bird stopped on the ground, looking around with his head around.
"Perhaps." Mu Yun's face didn't look like there was any change, so he walked back silently.
Nian Tong felt that there was something wrong, but she couldn't say it, she felt that what she saw just now was definitely not just a bird, but now here, there is indeed only one bird. She glanced back, and Mu Yun had already returned to her place, looking at the Dan furnace for refining medicine, and looking at the book in her hand. Nian Tong breathed a sigh of relief, finally, he didn't find any accidents, finally, she finished the matter. For the time being, she couldn't think of too many things, and after talking to Mu Yun, she was ready to go back to the room.
However, she didn't know that what awaited her was another conspiracy and trap.
......
Qu still looked at Tang Xi, who didn't eat or sleep, and was very anxious, she and Jisheng were helpless outside the door. That day, she and Jisheng went to send a letter to Niantong, and not long after the letter was sent, Tang Xi came over, and Niantong's letter was placed on the table naked, and it was indeed impossible to cover it if she wanted to. She felt very sorry for Niantong and said that she would help her hide it, but it didn't take a few days for him to find out. And when Tang Xi went crazy, she and Ji Sheng didn't dare to get close, so they could only follow him all the time, and finally let him enter the Red Sleeve Villa.
Qu still felt a little scared when she thought about it, but now, her eyelids kept jumping, and she didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Qin Sang also ran over, scratched his head, and said, "Did Tang Xi go to find Niantong today?" ”
"Yes." Qu still nodded.
"He's such a person... When I was separated from his precious little apprentice, I was asked to follow his apprentice to protect her, I couldn't see her hurt a little, now that I know that she is in the Red Sleeve Villa, I will definitely run away by myself..."Qin Sang sighed, "But, as his friend, I still keep understanding of him, I know that you are also sincere friends with him, give him a little less pressure, he has a lot less happiness and freedom, as long as it doesn't make a big fuss, let him go." ”
Qu still said: "I know... You have your position, but Niantong is my friend, and I also care about her feelings and promises to her..."
"We don't know what Nian Tong is thinking, but she must know in her heart that all we can do now is to make her efforts more meaningful." Qin Sang said.
Ji Sheng also said to Qu You: "Let's go back first, it's not a way to stay outside his door all the time." ”
Qin Sang suddenly pointed to the sky and said, "Look, a carrier pigeon! ”
Qu still stepped forward quickly, and when the pigeon had landed, he took the letter paper on its leg and opened it quickly. The words in it are very short, and they are the words of Tong Qingxiu.
"I have put the medicine in the Dan furnace and help me take care of the master."
In just a few words, Qu still felt much more relieved, she turned her head to Ji Sheng and said, "Niantong has succeeded." Does it mean that she will be back soon? ”
Ji Sheng smiled and nodded, but he had other thoughts in his heart, perhaps, he felt that Nian Tong had other things he wanted to do. But at this moment, in order to appease Qu Yi, he had to say this, and he was not sure what Nian Tong wanted to do now.
Nian Tong was a little uneasy at the moment, she went back to the room and thought about it, she always felt that there was something wrong with this matter today, when she clearly saw someone just flashing by, but then she saw that it was just a white pigeon...
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, wouldn't... Is this a trap, a trial?
A chill suddenly appeared behind her, and she felt that all eyes were staring at her now. yes, she's a little too reckless today... I just hope it's all her whims. However, if this is the case, she will have to use the little time she has to do as much as she can.
As we all know, the imperial court needs such a thing as a tiger talisman to summon the army, and the Red Sleeve Villa is naturally the same, for so many years, the military talisman of the Red Sleeve Villa has been kept with the owner. Now that Xu Yungui is there, he has been thinking about getting this talisman in his hands, so that at least, the Red Sleeve Villa will not abuse its military power and harm innocents. She believes that the Red Sleeves Villa has also done good things, but she also feels that some things have to be guarded against, and it is better to have more handles in the hands of the enemy than to control them in the hands of others.
However, during the time she had been in Red Sleeve Villa, she had never heard anyone mention such a thing as a talisman, as if it did not exist. Maybe it's because it's confidential, so everyone doesn't mention it easily, and Nian Tong doesn't dare to ask.
However, it seemed to be a coincidence, two days later, she decided to go to Xu Yungui, and this time she found him, which almost changed her life.
I saw him groping for something somewhere in the room. She has been thinking about the talisman in her mind lately, so her first reaction is that he is holding it, which is the talisman.
After Nian Tong waited for him to put away his things, he politely stepped forward and said, "Master." ”
"Is there anything important about coming here so early?"
"It's not a big deal, it's just that Mu Yun has already refined the Xiyan poison yesterday, he's very tired these days, I think I should ask for some reward for him, what do you say..."
"You're right, that's what I mean, but what do you think would be rewarded..."
Nian Tong rolled his eyes and said, "Mu Yun is an ambitious person, I think it's good to promote him to an official position." He is my subordinate, I think it's a bit condescending, why don't you give him some soldiers...? ”
As soon as the words came out, Nian Tong wanted to bite her tongue with some regret, she was too anxious, and when she said this, she had to make people think about it.
Sure enough, Xu Yungui's eyes changed slightly, he glanced at Nian Tong lightly, and said, "Mu Yun has been using medicine to save people since elementary school, let him lead the troops?" You can't think about it enough, right? ”
"I... I just mentioned it casually and didn't think about it that much. Nian Tong lowered his head.
"What are you doing so nervous?" Xu Yungui smiled and said, "I'll send him some rare medicinal materials another day, so it's fine." ”
Nian Tong nodded.
"Anything else?" Xu Yungui asked.
"Hmm... Yes, owner, I would like to know something about the talisman. Nian Tong said.
"How did you come up with this?" Xu Yungui had an unexpectedly good attitude, and he didn't look at Niantong with suspicion, which made Niantong breathe a sigh of relief and made her bold.
"Hmm... That's the case, when I was in Wanjun Mansion, I once saw the tiger talisman of the imperial court, and without the tiger talisman, there was no way to gather soldiers. I'm thinking that this token is good for a better purge of the army, so I want to ask, I don't know if the Red Sleeve Villa has one..."Nian Tong said.
"Naturally, there is, but the talisman is an important thing, and I have always kept it here for myself, and I have never pretended to be with others." Xu Yungui said.
"Oh..."Nian Tong responded, not knowing why Xu Yungui was so tolerant of himself.
"Are you thinking, I'm weird? Last time, I forced you to take poison and seriously injured you with one palm, but I trust you very much, and it all seems to be very contradictory. Xu Yungui said with a smile.
Nian Tong was seen through his thoughts, so he had to respond: "I do have some doubts..."
"Nian Tong, do you remember your last name?"
Nian Tong was stunned, she seemed to remember that Xingyan had also told her about this question at the beginning, she didn't want to think about it at that time, and when she heard it, she left it behind, but now Xu Yungui was in front of her and asked her clearly, what is your surname?
What's your last name? Ah Chen had also asked her this question.
Heard... My last name is Xu?
Nian Tong suddenly raised his head, looked at him with wide eyes, and said, "Who are you?" ”
"Who am I... Niantong, you have been with me for so long, and you have not realized it at all? ”
Nian Tong took two steps back, looked at Xu Yungui, and said, "Don't say it... I don't want to know, if you're okay, I'll go first..."After she finished speaking, she ran away, but Xu Yungui grabbed her wrist, and she couldn't help frowning.
