Chapter 31: The Evil One
Standing in the middle of the street, a casual and comfortable smile, shuttling past her, she half-squinted, looking up, with the tall castle tower as the center, the houses on both sides are dotted, the abrupt horizontal cornices, the high fluttering shop signs, the sparkling cars and horses, and the endless flow of pedestrians, all seem to show the prosperity of the capital.
She closed her eyes without hesitation, and when she opened them again, she smiled brightly and started working.
The pedestrians moved out of the way as if avoiding the plague, and their disdainful eyes were like bladeless winds, but they were used to it, and their complexions remained unchanged, smiling and flattering.
She stared at the passers-by and muttered, "Kind girl, aunt and aunt, kindness, travel thousands of miles a day......"
"Get out of here!"
"Bang, poor Dao wishes the son to abandon his wife and take a concubine as soon as possible!"
ββ¦β¦β
With a clang, the silver poured into the bowl.
"Auntie, a kindness is a blessing to the five seas!"
"You're dirty!"
"That poor way, I wish this female benefactor a healthy family!"
ββ¦β¦β
There was another clang, and the silver was poured into the bowl.
"This girl ββββ"
"Go away! I don't listen! β
With a bang, the girl dropped the silver and ran away covering her ears, shouting, "Girl, girl-Poor Dao hasn't finished yet, Poor Dao wishes you to climb the high branches as soon as possible." β
"Huh", a silver light flew in, and the two took it steadily, and put it into the bowl, only to hear Yingying's laughter from above, "This girl will borrow the auspicious words of the little Taoist!" β
Fuji raised his eyes and looked, it turned out to be the girl from Yingcuilou, the girls scratched their heads and made a gesture at her, Fuji trembled all over, put his hands together and walked away with a smile.
She squatted in the corner of one side of the wall, carefully observed, on the teahouse across the street, a pair of young men and women were tired, the man was submissive, from time to time for the woman to rub her shoulders, the woman was proud to enjoy, the jade finger pointed to the small shop in the distance, the man immediately understood, and walked out of the tea house in a hurry.
Fold a branch of the apricot blossom that poked out of the corner, followed briskly and quietly, walked in front of the man, respectfully a series, handed the apricot blossom in his hand to his eyes, the man saw that it was a shabby little Taoist, pinched his nose and waved his hand with disgust in his eyes, and shouted, "Get out!" β
Fuji chuckled and said, "Childe, there is a girl who asked me to give it to you, and she said that seeing flowers is like seeing people. β
The man's figure froze, thought for a moment, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he chuckled, without waiting for him to speak, he clasped his hands together and said modestly, "Poor Dao, let's go!" β
The man was surprised at first, and when he saw that the person had turned around and wanted to leave, he quickly walked around to her and blocked the way, his phoenix eyes hooked, the corners of his mouth pulled out a reluctant smile, and he took the flower branch and said, "What about her?" β
He glanced at the young girl who was hurrying on the street, and pointed casually, "It's those ones." β
Or a few, the man's vanity was troubled, shaking the flower branch in his hand and nodding with satisfaction, where do you remember to help your own lady buy things, has been confused by a few sweet words, just about to turn around, the sleeves tightened, slightly sideways, and saw that the bowl has been raised to the front, he threw it generously, and with a few crisp sounds, she turned it upside down, revealing a satisfied smile.
While the was still losing her mind, she ran away, and disappeared as soon as she slipped away.
The woman watched the bustling downstairs while shaking the fan.
"The girl is beautiful and kind! The day is good, and the sea of blessings is boundless! β
Fuji bowed in front of the woman, and the bowl was raised in front of her.
"Go away!"
In an instant, several servants stopped her.
The woman covered her face with a fan, glanced at it with disdain, and continued to look at the street scene, but she showed a bright smile and said unhurriedly, "The girl is here to enjoy the scenery, your son-in-law is there to enjoy the flowers, and I wish you a good coupleββ"
The woman ignored it, and when she saw that her father-in-law was walking unhurriedly with only apricot blossoms in her hand, her face was flushed, and she didn't know whether she was angry or ashamed.
Seeing that the little Taoist priest was about to leave, she called, "Little Taoist priest, slow down, you have something to say?" β
After a moment's hesitation, Fuji turned around and smiled slyly.
The man hummed a little song and shook the flower branch leisurely, and his eyes swept to meet the lady's resentful eyes, his expression trembled, and the soles of his feet froze.
"Coming back? Where's my osmanthus cake? β
The woman shook the fan and said casually, looking at her empty hands, and her eyes were forbearing.
The man's expression changed abruptly, his eyes flowed, and he handed out the apricot blossoms, barely squeezing out a smile, "How can the lady's osmanthus cake have this beautiful ......"
"Slap", the woman didn't wait for him to react, and slapped her face, "You are getting bolder and bolder, hooking up with people under my nose, and I don't look at you like this, if it weren't for my father, can you change to a sesame mung bean official?" β
"I don't have it, lady, and I don't dare."
"What about the osmanthus cake you bought?"
"When the husband is hungry, he is greedy."
"Where's the rest of the silver taels?"
The man was suddenly dumbfounded, stroking his beaten red face, he wanted to speak for a while, but he didn't spit out a word, his eyes were empty, and his eyes flashed and he saw the back of the Taoist priest sitting next to him sneering and trembling. Are you a cultivator who can't see the love of others? β
Fuji turned his face with a smile, folded his hands, and said leisurely, "Poor Dao is smiling, this is a good season for apricot blossoms everywhere, but the son is the reddest in his hands, which makes Poor Dao Yaxing chant poetry, the garden is full of spring, and a red apricot is out of the head, hahaββ"
The two looked at each other, the man was suddenly angry, and Zhou Zheng's face was already bruised, his eyebrows and eyes twitched, and when he saw that he was about to leave, he dragged the person hard, "It turned out to be you." β
"Childe, please respect yourself, the poor Dao is a cultivator...... Ah...... How are your hands scratching, oops, how are you still touching them...... Let go! β
The woman turned her back to them, trembling with rage.
The man clenched tightly, "The lady is the apricot blossom he gave me!" β
"Slap" was another slap, and the woman's face was so angry that her face turned red, "Even the little Taoist priest is molesting in front of me, has you grown your ability?" β
"The lady is wronged by her husband-"
"Slap, slap" slapped a few more times.
The man clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and slapped the table, "I have endured you for a long time, and I have to clean up with your mother-in-law today." β
A scream burst through the eardrums, "You dare to hit me-"
There was a clang, and there was an instant sound of the teacups, tables and chairs smashing, and the good couple turned into a resentful couple in an instant, and he stuck out his tongue and left quietly, went downstairs, glanced at the two people who were beaten upstairs, the scene was chaotic, the shopkeeper, the small servant, and the servants were divided into two groups and struggled to pull the two apart, the two pointed at each other, the mouth was vicious, and the legs under their feet were not idle and fiercely kicked, it seemed that at the same moment, the two seemed to have telepathy, both looked back at the back of the downstairs, and the four eyes were abruptly torn apart, and the man pointed to the bottom and roared, " Don't let that little Taoist escape, I'm going to pull out his skin. β
Suddenly, there was a cool air behind her, and as soon as she turned around, she saw the servants rushing towards her angrily with sticks.
Naturally, she was a frequent visitor to the street, and the narrow alleys of the alley were so slippery that in an instant the servants lost their target for tracking.
Watching the servants swing out of the alley, Fuji flashed out of the clutter.
And all this was seen by Xu Dai's master and apprentice who were hidden in the shadows.
"Master, you can see that virtue."
"That couple is not a good person, the woman's fierceness killed three concubines, the man hooked up with the woman of a good family, and the woman who was made by him to have a big belly saw that his mother-in-law was fierce, so she could only dare to be angry and dare not speak."
"According to Master's intentions, Isn't it a good deed?"
An unclear smile flashed in Xu Dai's eyes, and he turned around and left.
Fusan frowned, touched his face, and thought of his pitiful experience, under the innocent mask of Fuji was a cunning and foxy face, he swore that as long as the poison was detoxified, he would poison her with the most poisonous medicine, and a wave of anger couldn't help but rise from both ribs.
He followed Fuji all the way, Fuji seemed to wander carelessly, a glance from the corner of his eye, he knew it in his heart, chuckled, she took a few quick steps, she would pause, and so on several times, but she couldn't keep up with her rhythm, he had to hide, and then poked his head out to find that the person was gone.
Evening.
When Fuji came back, she poured today's harvest to the master, Xu Dai frowned with joy, hid a smile in her heart, and said, "No, no, don't give Fuji a meal soon." β
There was a muffled snort in the room, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the three people, and he took out the bowl and put it on the desk, and took a bite as soon as he turned around.
She was indeed hungry, so she took a big bite of the bowl and ate it, suddenly, she froze still, Xu Dai looked at it in surprise for a while, and closed her eyes when she saw that there was nothing abnormal.
The anger in her heart was like a bolt of lightning, about to tear apart the dark clouds, the rice grains were mixed with stones, she didn't eat it, she didn't vomit, she didn't feel happy to vomit, and when she raised her eyes, she suddenly smiled, "Master really loves me, there is meat in this rice." β
After speaking, she continued to eat without changing her face, only frowning in her heart, and stroking her heart and mouth, she was so cruel to herself, she was really convinced.
At night, the moonlight is foggy and dim.
Under the corner of the wall outside the house, she finally vomited all the food, she had vomited until she burst into tears, and after a while, she calmed down, her cold eyes hooked, and her eyes were locked on the room.
Not three have always been anxious at night, so they went out of the house to solve, half relaxed, suddenly felt a cool air behind them, not three and one dignified, cautiously turned around, no one behind him, was about to unload his defense, suddenly it was dark in front of him, too late to shout, and the person fell.
For a long time, he opened his eyes, but was rushed to the door of his head by blood, the world has been turned upside down, pain, very painful, as if the bones of the whole body are going to be broken, a little spark in front of him in the confusion, suddenly in front of his eyes, it is an upside-down figure, when he saw the reflection in front of him, his head "buzzed" and exploded, anger burned in his heart, he wanted to hit someone, he couldn't reach her, he wanted to kick her, his legs were tied, he wanted to scold, and then he sadly found that his mouth was blocked.
With a shake of her head, she looked at him upside down, and then showed a bright smile, she turned around and went to barbecue, and after a while, she wiped her mouth, played with the knife, and knocked his fat head with the handle of the knife, and smiled softly.
"Kicked me into the well three times, covered my head and beat me twice, pretended to faint and framed me ten times, put stones in the meal twenty times, no, how should I settle this account with you?"
Busan's mouth made a sound of "woo, woo, woo", Fuji took the barrier, and Fuji immediately spat her, "How can you be ruthless with these, I have been tortured by you to the point that life is worse than death, you kill me." β
"I tortured you?"
"Pretend, you continue to pretend, you poisoned me like this, and pretended to be nothing, you are so poisonous!"
"Me? You are talking nonsense! β
Busan was so angry that he trembled all over, and he was about to cry, "I knew that you were pretending to be stupid again, you dare not do it, I despise you!" β
"Yes is yes, no is no, you are used to being unreasonable, and if you stumble on me again, I will directly roast you into a crispy pig."
"You bastard, we were all adopted by the master, you dare to poison your fellow disciples, harm people, and be so arrogant."
"I was taken in by Master, but I wasn't raised by his old man."
After hearing this, he was stunned, and the madness stopped abruptly, this guy really understood.
Seeing that he didn't answer for a while, he continued to ask, "Okay, since you said that I poisoned you, then tell me how I poisoned you?" β
When I heard this, my eyes rolled, and I spoke for a long time, "Two months ago, Master found you, you were unconscious, and after you woke up, you were as stupid as a child, and Master was helpless, but your illness was very strange, sometimes good and sometimes bad, a month ago, I saw the strange fragrance of the colored pills in your hand, and you lied to me that it was sugar, so I ate it, and it turned out to be like this." β
"Wait, haven't you always looked like this? The first time I saw you, you were too fat to be presentable! β
After a while, he went crazy again, and after a long silence, he said, "That's it, I lost to you, you kill me, since you don't admit it, you won't give me the antidote!" β
Seeing that he didn't look like he was pretending, he let him go, and said with a soothing face, "You tell me carefully, from the day the master picked me up." β
The corners of his eyes flew sharply, and he looked at her carefully, and after hesitating for a moment, he slowly explained the matter......
After listening to Busan's story, she finally knew that the dream that had been bothering her for these days was true, and she immediately asked Busan to bring those things that belonged to her, and Busan listened to it, first shook her head and didn't agree, but after thinking about it, she reluctantly agreed, and he disappeared in a round, and after a while, he came roundly.
I looked at it carefully, flipped through everything, her eyes were locked on an old coat like a torch, and a few words were written crookedly on the sleeves, as if it was because of the washing, the words didn't look complete, she pursed her lips, and suddenly turned around and asked him, "That's all?" β
Nodding his head with a weak heart, he smiled, didn't debunk it, didn't say anything, just stared at him, and finally didn't lose three times, "There is a medical book in Master's place, we guess you may be a doctor, otherwise why do you make so many medicines?" β
In fact, after listening to Busan's narration, Fuji was not so reasonable, but a little at a loss, she said with guilt, "Nosan, I don't think I mean to hurt your ......"
"Then hand over the antidote."
A figure in the shadow of the tree flickered and flashed out, it was Xu Dai.
I didn't understand why they repeatedly emphasized that she knew how to heal, but she also knew that there was a reason, but she didn't argue too much for herself, maybe she was really a doctor who was an autocratic poison, and maybe she was a big villain in the past.
She was stunned, her expression a little gloomy, "I've forgotten the past, how can I help you?" β
Xu Dai saw that her attitude was calm, not like she was lying, although she was still puzzled, but she endured it on her face, "As long as you are sincere as a teacher, you will help you remember." β
Fuji took a deep look and said heartily, "Okay! β
The next few days seemed to be calm, and occasionally teased her, but it had been reined in, Xu Dai often boiled medicine for her, according to him, he had been poisoned quite deeply, and if he wanted to recover his memory, he had to detoxify first, although he was puzzled, but he felt that they wanted to poison her and had already started it, so why bother, so he cooperated obediently.
