Chapter 17: The Longevity Girl
The room was quiet, and even a silver needle could be heard clearly when it fell on the ground. It was dark and ambiguous, and there was a heavy light leaking in through the window lattice, adding to the oppressive and dull. The whole room was eerie and terrifying, and there was a strange aura everywhere.
Jian Huaizhen was about to turn back, but he heard a "bang", and the door was slammed shut from the outside. The wind brought by the closing of the door rushed towards Jian Huaizhen, making her suddenly feel a slight chill all over her body, and a cold and sharp feeling penetrated into her bone marrow. She shuddered involuntarily.
The chill came one after another, with the cold smell of blood, and the oppressors could barely breathe. Jian Huaizhen closed her eyes, only to feel that a vast sea of blood appeared in front of her, the blood was red and gorgeous, and she was surrounded in the center layer by layer.
Suddenly, a mournful and desolate voice slowly came, and in a trance, it seemed that someone was calling her name in a low and cold voice, and the voice was gloomy and compassionate, as if it came from the eighteen-fold hell. It seemed that it was only a moment's effort, and the voice was filled in all directions, like resentment, such as admiration, such as crying, she only felt that she was in the sea of sorrow and hatred, and she couldn't extricate herself.
At this time, suddenly there was a fluttering sound from the beam, and then a clump of jackdaws with the shadow of the sun flew up from the beam, flashing their wings and circling in the room, as if they wanted to find a place to fly out, but they could not get out.
Nansansho is located in the middle of nowhere, mixed with peanut trees, lush vegetation, and the palace project has not yet been completed, so it is inaccessible, and over time, countless crows are inhabited. The palace people regard crows as sacred birds, and no one cares about them on weekdays. Over time, the crows flew into the palace to build nests.
Jian Huaizhen was trapped in the sea of blood and couldn't extricate himself, in a trance, he heard a fluttering sound in his ears, his heart was surprised, he hurriedly gathered his mind, opened his eyes, and the turbulent sea of blood suddenly disappeared, and it was just an ambiguous dark light in front of him.
Fang Cai's situation is vivid, as if he had been hit by a nightmare. It's a dream, but it's not like a dream. If it's a dream, why is it so real, as if it actually happened? If it's not a dream, why wake up?
The room was getting colder and colder, and Jian Huaizhen was cold all over her body, as if she had fallen into an ice cave and snow cellar. There is a kind of coldness of "late autumn, Konoha Xiaoxiao", and for a while, I can't help but touch the past again, and my heart is sad. A faint fragrance came to the nose, the dark fragrance hit people, but it was indifferent, and there was no trace in an instant.
Jian Huaizhen's heart was awe-struck, and she suddenly understood that she was not dreaming, but someone had burned the karma incense in the room, and the fragrance was curling, seeping into her skin and intestines, making her hallucinate for a while.
Coming from Uszang, the incense is secreted by a tree that resembles a pine tree, and the color of the incense is frost and snow, and when burned, the aroma is very light, but it will release an extremely cold air. After smelling this incense, it will make people feel depressed and produce extremely terrifying hallucinations. When you can't extricate yourself, you will lose consciousness and go insane in severe cases.
Jian Huaizhen once saw a record of Kamboro incense in Fengpingju's books, and thought it was just made up by idlers, but he didn't expect that the world really existed. Thankfully, the jackdaw found her way and pulled her back to reality from her hallucination, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
She followed the light to find an ancient three-phase hardwood screen chair, sat down, leaned on the back of the chair, calmed her mind, silently recited the Buddha's verses, and her heart was suddenly as clear as the mirror platform under the Bodhi tree, and there was no dust. It was easy for her to get out of this room, but she wanted to find out who was behind the deliberate murder of her and Jian Wenying, so she pretended to be ambushed.
After about half an hour, the karma brood incense was burned, and the cold air in the room slowly dissipated. Jian Huaizhen squinted and lay on the back of the chair, waiting quietly.
Sure enough, the wooden door was pushed open with a "creak", and a crisp voice came in: "Xiao Xianzi, you did a good job this time." This palace will not only let go of the little hoof of Hanyue, but will also reward you with a large amount of money, begging your father to let you out of the palace. "The person who speaks is like the Snow Princess.
Then came a trembling and slightly excited voice: "Is what the princess said true? I kowtow to the princess. After saying that, the sound of "bang-bang" kowtow came.
"Gotcha, gotcha. Up and down the palace, who doesn't know that this palace is the best to speak? Xiao Xianzi, seeing that you are so obedient, this palace will reward you with a box of rouge. You can take it back and coax the cold moon. This box of rouge is called 'Zhu Hua Shake', which is the best of the best. Last time, my uncle went to Yanzhi Mountain and brought a total of two boxes back, one box for each of my mother and me. Today I see that you have helped me so much, so I will give him to you. You stand up and smell the aroma......." Luo Xue said with a smile instead of being cruel and delicate.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Then there was the sound of squirming clothes, presumably gritting the strings and standing up. It was just a moment of effort, and he bit the string and exclaimed: "This rouge...... This rouge ....." he spoke very indecently, and with a "bang", he fell heavily on the floor.
The light poured through the open door into the room, which was silent for a moment. Jian Huaizhen opened his eyes slightly, and saw that the bite string was lying on the ground, and Luo Xue was holding a nine-flower flounder phoenix pattern rouge box and smiling proudly. The phoenix pattern reflected her delicate face, which looked extremely distorted and terrifying.
"Xiao Xianzi, if you want to blame, you can only blame your bad life, blame Jian Huaizhen, a cheap maid, for affecting you." Princess Falling Snow gritted her teeth and said, a heavy lip print on her lower lip, as if it had been dyed by impatiens juice.
After Luoxue finished speaking, he walked into the room again, and saw Jian Huaizhen's eyes slightly closed, leaning on the three-phase hardwood screen chair and falling asleep. She sneered a few times, and her voice was full of resentment: "Jian Huaizhen, this palace doesn't want to deal with you repeatedly, it's only because your life is too hard!" It's only because since you entered the palace, Brother Shaoheng has only you in his eyes! Dare to rob a man with my Snow Princess, I will teach you not to die well! No, it's better to live than to die, hahaha......"
Luo Xue smiled maniacally, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows seemed to be hateful, contaminated with a little anger, and she was arrogant. She took out a dagger from her sleeve and slashed it across Jian Huaizhen's silver-like face, the sharp blade touched her skin, and Jian Huaizhen felt cold and cold in her heart. She stubbornly endured it, and looked at a plum blossom silver needle in her hand.
"I really want to scratch your face to seduce men, what else does Brother Shaoheng like about you? It's just that Brother Shaoheng is a long-term person, if he knows that I am not good for you, even if he doesn't say it, he will definitely annoy me and resent me in his heart. If he sees that you are pitiful, and he softens his heart and wants to take care of you for the rest of his life, won't he fulfill you to be a couple for a lifetime? "The snow is full of grievances, and there is resentment in every sentence.
"Miss Jane," she pinched Jian Huaizhen's white and smooth chin with her slender fingers, "You said that tomorrow Brother Shaoheng wakes up and finds that you are having an affair with the little eunuch next to your father, what will he think of you?" Will it be completely dead to you? ”
Jian Huaizhen opened her eyes slightly, the sharp blade glowed coldly in the sun, and the coldness seeped into the pores on her face, making her shudder. On weekdays, she just thought that Princess Falling Snow was brutal and wanton, but she didn't expect her to be so vicious. The matter of the silver spear snake has let her go, but she still refuses to settle down, and gives birth to such an incident to frame herself.
It's just that...... The silver spear snake produced in Wusizang, the karma bro incense produced in Wusizang, and the poisonous rouge produced in Yanzhi Mountain...... Is it all just that falling snow turns into hatred because of jealousy?
It's a pity that she can't think about it anymore. Falling Snow turned the sharp knife to her body, trying to pick her clothes. Jian Huaizhen's fingers twisted slightly, and the plum blossom needle in his hand had already come out of his hand and hit the acupoint of the falling snow. Luoxue only felt that it was dark in front of him, so he fainted on the cold floor, and the sharp knife in his hand also fell to the ground with a "clang".
"You....... Did you kill her? I don't know when, there was a little girl in the room wearing a three-color satin bucket paddy field jacket and pinching gold digging cloud red fragrant sheepskin boots. The girl looked fifteen or sixteen years old, her hair was as yellow as a weed, and she was made into a hawthorn bun with ruyi moire hoops, and between the two small buns on the left and right, she wore a flower with a bright pearl as bright as a star. Her face was very crystal clear, and her skin was so thin that she seemed to be able to see the capillaries underneath, and her condition was very strange and terrifying.
Jian Huaizhen thought she was an ordinary palace maid, and her heart was secretly shocked, and her eyes were as dark as fire: "Have you seen everything?" He already held a poisonous plum blossom needle in his hand, and hesitated to kill her.
"Of course I did. I heard the two of them, ———" she pointed to the fainting little string and the snowfall, and continued, "I was out playing with birds, and I saw this very beautiful woman sneaking in, and I followed her. Then I heard the two of them discussing harming you here. I saw that they didn't look like good people, and I thought you were good people. I was trying to save you, but you killed this woman. ”
Jian Huaizhen was quite surprised to see her words and deeds, and she was a little crazy, and she didn't even know Princess Luoxue, and she didn't know if she was deliberately acting, so she asked, "Who are you?" ”
The girl took a few steps forward, walked in front of Jian Huaizhen, kicked the Snow Princess a few times with her foot, and panicked in Yingying's flickering eyes: "Is she really dead?" ”
Jian Huaizhen's eyebrows were furrowed, and the hand holding the plum blossom needle trembled a little. This girl has an ordinary appearance, only a pair of eyes, as bright as rhinestones, which makes her can't help but look at them a few more times.
Staring at her eyes as bright as stars, Jian Huaizhen suddenly had some inexplicable feelings in her heart, and for a while, her heart was a little turbulent, full of pity, and she couldn't do anything to her.
"She's not dead. Just passed out. Jian Huaizhen let out a long breath, his face was as pale as paper, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
Her eyes were cold, giving birth to an endless chill, and she was a little aggressive for a while, and the little girl was frightened and took a few steps back, before she said timidly: "My master asked me to be a lingering." I have only been in the palace with Thirteen Niang for a few days. The palace is really good, there is everything delicious and fun, but it is a little stuffy. Later, her eyes became brighter and brighter, and it was obvious that what she said did not seem to be false.
