Chapter 4: Surprise
The young man was fourteen or fifteen years old, dressed in a dark robe, except for the hanging green unicorn jade around his waist, there was nothing else, only the cuffs and hem of the shirt were embroidered with golden silk threads auspicious clouds. Half of the hair is tied to the top of the head with a sheep fat jade hairpin, and half is scattered at the back of the head. An angular face, with the unique spirit of a young man, thick eyebrows into the sideburns, a high nose bridge, thin lips, simple clothing, but the whole person is full of luxury, and a pair of red phoenix eyes and tails are raised, and there is a trace of charm in the extravagance. The skin is not as fair as that of an ordinary young man, but a healthy wheat color. A white silk folding fan in his hand shook around.
A strand of broken hair naughtily shuttled between the young man's five fingers, seeing that Lieyun only looked up at him blankly, but did not speak, the young man abandoned the black hair between his fingers, chuckled, and fell three feet in front of Lieyun.
"What's the matter, little flying insect, look at my master, I am more jade tree in the wind and graceful than I was three years ago, I dare not admit it?" When the young man spoke again, his extravagance cracked.
Lieyun was silent. The boy and the girl are black and white, in this silent peach forest, as if they are in a painting.
After a long time, "You don't look bad, why do you have to be a peacock?" Lie Yun spoke, he was stunned first, such rude words, did he say it himself?
Unexpectedly, instead of being annoyed, the young man put away the fan in his hand and looked excited, "Little flying worm, do you remember?" I said how could you forget me, you didn't speak just now, you were thinking about how to arrange me! You're still as wilted as you were three years ago! ”
Lieyun sneered, "You shake a fan on a cold day, isn't it a stinky peacock?" Also, who the hell are you? Today, Tanji Temple is closed, how can you still blend into the temple? You are waiting for someone in this peach forest, but that person is not me, you admit your mistake. ”
After speaking, Lieyun was about to turn around and leave, so he might as well suddenly bully the young man forward. A medicinal fragrance hit the nose of the fierce cloud, and he hurriedly retreated, but unexpectedly stepped on a dead branch the thickness of a baby's arm, and with an exclamation in his mouth, his body fell backwards.
Seeing that Lieyun was about to fall to the ground, the young man didn't care about men and women, grabbed Lieyun's wrist with one hand, and grabbed Lieyun's waist with the other, so that the force went upward. Waiting for Lieyun to stand up again, the young man let go of his hand around his waist, and was about to loosen his wrist, when he suddenly let out a light "hey", not only did he not let go, but changed his grip to match, and put his three fingers on Lieyun's wrist.
Lie Yun saw that the young man did not let go, and was about to scold, watching the young man's movements, and then looking at the young man's frowning brows, remembering the medicinal fragrance he smelled just now, he calmed down and let the young man check.
After a few breaths, the young man let go, his expression was no longer the child's play just now, and there was a little more shock and anger in his words, "Three years ago, your father and mother passed away, what happened?" What's happened to you! ”
A hint of vigilance flashed in Lie Yun's eyes, "How do you know that my father and mother have passed away?" Why do you ask? What does this have to do with my body? Besides, who are you, and why should I answer your questions! ”
The young man looked at the vigilant look in Lie Yun's eyes, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and he spoke again, his voice hoarse: "Do you know that you were given a nine-turn soul lock needle, and you were also given a soul-devouring soup?" ”
"What are you talking about, I don't understand? What is the Nine Turns Soul Lock Needle? What is Soul Eater Soup? Three years ago, I was indeed given injections due to my illness, and now I also drink decoction medicine every night, but these are the ones that my aunt and uncle have worked so hard to find to treat me, and without these, I am afraid that I will not even be able to sleep. Besides, how can you be sure that I was given a nine-turn soul lock needle and a soul-devouring soup? Lieyun turned around, "If the son wants to wait for someone to return the invitation, the little girl will retire." ”
Without waiting for Lieyun to take a step, the young man's voice resounded behind him, and the words were heavy: "The Nine Turns Soul Lock Needle and the Nine Turns Soul Restoration Needle are both treasures of the Medicine King Valley, but the two are opposite, one blocks people's memories, and the other helps people recover their memories." It's just that the effects of the two are too domineering, and if they fall into the hands of bad people, they are easy to cause trouble, so only the medicine king valley masters of the past dynasties can learn it. ”
"If, as you said, these acupuncture methods can only be practiced by the valley masters of previous generations, then if I am administered needles and drugged, wouldn't it be the medicine king in your mouth who did it?" Lieyun turned, sarcastic.
"Impossible, the old man likes you the most, how can he harm you!" The young man hurriedly argued, "Moreover, there was a traitor in the Medicine King Valley who secretly practiced the Nine Turns Soul Lock Needle, and before he had time to steal the Nine Turns Soul Restoration Needle, he was discovered by the old man, and the old man was angry and expelled the person from the valley. ”
"Who's that man?" Lieyun asked.
The young man blushed and said, "I asked the old man many times, but the old man didn't say who it was." This time, when you go back, you must ask to understand, and if you find out and destroy this disaster, it will all hurt you. Speaking of this, the young man straightened his face, "Moreover, if a person is given a nine-turn soul lock needle, he will be fed soul devouring soup .........."
"What will happen?" Lieyun approached the young man, only to realize that the young man was more than a head taller than him.
After a long silence, the young man spoke again, "People who have been injected with needles and drugs will not only have a certain memory blocked, but even what happened before will slowly forget, and in the end, their brains will be blank, like a person who has lost his soul, and he has no mind at all. I thought you were pretending, lying to me that I didn't remember me, but it turned out to be ......"
"Possibly?" Interrupting the young man's words, Lieyun asked.
The boy nodded and shook his head.
"What do you mean by that? Can or can't? Blazing clouds finally showed a hint of anxiety.
"I can only alleviate the medicinal effect of the Soul Eater Soup, to completely cure it, I need the old man to unlock the Nine Turns Soul Lock Needle for you and then apply the Nine Turns Soul Restoration Needle. The old man likes you the most, if it weren't for your mother's refusal, she would have recognized you as an apprentice. If I had known that you had been harmed like this, I would have jumped to my feet. The boy nodded, "Also, you have to find a way to break that Soul Eater Soup, the longer you take it, the more painful it will be when you crack it." As he spoke, there was a hint of distress in the young man's eyes.
Lie Yun didn't care about the young man's expression, he only opened his mouth and asked, "How to alleviate it?" ”
The young man took out a pill, "Don't drink the Soul Devouring Soup tonight, take this pill first, at this time tomorrow, you come to Taolin again, I will give you a prescription, you decoction according to the recipe, after three months, I will find the old man to give you an injection, and you can be cured." Just ......"
"Just what?" Lieyun took the pill and asked.
"It's okay, you can take it with confidence." The breeze in the peach forest gradually rose, and the young man's face seemed to be blown red by the wind, "You trust me?" ”
"If you don't believe it, you won't listen to you so much, and you won't take your pills. Do you have any reason to hurt me? Lieyun glanced at the boy like a fool.
As soon as the young man heard the music, he was about to say something more, when he suddenly moved his ears, "Someone is coming, it is estimated that your maid is looking for you." Remember, I'll take care of you. After speaking, the young man flew up like a goshawk, and the rabbit fell from the peach forest, and disappeared into the mountain behind the temple.
Lieyun took the medicine pill in his hand and wrapped it in a silk handkerchief, put it in his sleeve pocket, and turned to walk back and forth. Halfway through, I saw Mo Ju coming towards me, "County Lord, the old lady and the young lady have all rested, and they are waiting for the county lord to go back to eat." ”
