Chapter 458: Dawn (7)
In the early morning, the air was exceptionally fresh, as if it had rained last night, and the locust trees on both sides of the street still had the early morning rain and dew.
Walking slightly to the railing of Wangjiang Tower, looking at the scene in the distance, Gong Xiu squinted her eyes and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
That slightly tired look couldn't be concealed at all.
As a true disciple of Hongchen Dao, Gong Xiu has rarely come out and walk around since she was very young, not because of her simple nature, but because the whole world is an unstable place for her, after all, if she exposes her identity in the outside world and is known by those opponents, she must be targeted by those powerful opponents, especially Taihe Palace, who has been chasing down the ancient Seven Daoists, you must know that even the profound Taoist sect of Huangquan Dao cannot resist Taihe Palace, like the sect that they take as their mission to enter the world and cultivate, it is obviously not the orthodox opponent of heaven and earth, and it is almost extremely difficult to hide the eyeliner of a behemoth like Taihe Palace, even with the dormant power of the Red Dust Dao, it can't easily appear in the other party's sight.
Naturally, Gong Xiu could only live in seclusion in various strongholds in the Red Dust Road, and he had to change places every once in a while, in case he was deduced by Taihe Palace, thus being exposed to the other party's firepower.
In so many years, the place where Gong Xiu stayed for the longest time was probably the South China Sea, whether it was the Flaming Mountain, or the Immortal Mountain, or the Curling Island, Gong Xiu had hidden in this kind of Jedi.
It's just that if a person stays for a long time, it will inevitably produce lonely thoughts, if this kind of emotional fluctuation is not well controlled, not only is it no different from cultivation, but it may also breed demons, so after thinking about it again and again, a certain principal of Hongchen Road brought a playmate to Gong Xiu, which is this little girl named Mengmeng.
The master and servant have been living together, and their lives have been dull, but it didn't take long for the upper echelons of Hongchen Dao to suddenly send her to Daluozhou, which seemed to be laying out some things that made her scratch her head, and from these layouts, Gong Xiu saw that the other party seemed to have signs of letting Hongchen Dao return to heaven and earth.
For the affairs between the upper echelons, Gong Xiu didn't have much room to intervene, so she could only take Gong Meng to Daluo Prefecture, and according to the instructions of Hongchen Dao, she interfered with the operation of Baiyun City step by step.
And, when she was in Baiyun City, Gong Xiu made some unexpected discoveries, she actually met her uncle who she hadn't seen for many years here, naturally, with her uncle's care in Baiyun City, Gong Xiu's situation was slightly better, but that uncle was not a high authority, and some things naturally couldn't be exhaustive.
Especially in recent days, Gong Xiu feels that she is probably being targeted, she doesn't know which way the other party is, but looking at his style, he shouldn't be a person from Taihe Palace.
After all, the experience of the rivers and lakes is not as good as those old fritters, and Gong Xiu has always been confused about the origin of the other party.
Sure enough, not long after, a group of guys from the Yin-Yang Sect Monk Division broke into Jishitang, as if they wanted to take her down, and she was not from the right background, so she naturally wouldn't be obedient, and under the dispute between the two, Gong Xiu made a move, and those guys who were just ordinary monks naturally became Gong Xiu's hands!
After leaving Jishitang with Gong Meng, Gong Xiu has been thinking about why the other party deliberately targeted her, after all, at the beginning and end of this matter, there are obvious traces of someone meddling in secret, this situation is something that even a person like Gong Xiu who is not deeply involved in the world can understand, obviously the other party is too explicit.
So in this situation, after thinking about it, Gong Xiu finally decided to open a line of explanation from the upper level in advance, and took the initiative to contact Dong Taixuan of the Yin Yang Sect.
For the matter of the Yin-Yang Sect, Gong Xiu has more or less heard of it, that Dong Changsheng, who was born in Hongchen Dao, can be described as a once-in-a-millennium masterpiece, in Hongchen Dao, Dong Changsheng was the next popular candidate to take charge, but then I didn't know what happened, Dong Changsheng and Hongchen had a dirty relationship, and finally parted ways, creating a lineage of Yin-Yang Sect.
Regarding Dong Changsheng's current situation, Hongchen Dao has so-called more inquiries, but he has never been able to figure out the reality of the other party, and Gong Xiu's indirect task is also to find Dong Changsheng, for the former disciple of Hongchen Dao, Hongchen Dao seems to have the will to let this former master return to the sect.
It's just that the Yin-Yang Sect is now a mixture of dragons and snakes, and the internal components are obviously very problematic, that Dong Taixuan ignores it on the surface, but in his heart he knows the problems better than anyone else, but the strange thing is that the Dong family has not reacted to the things of the Yin-Yang Sect as it should, and seems to turn a blind eye to the fanning of the flames by external forces.
Regarding Dong Taixuan's position, Gong Xiu has always been a little confused, but the problems exposed here have made Gong Xiu a little vigilant.
"Miss, breakfast is ready!"
Just when she was thinking about things slightly, the little girl named Gong Meng came over, Gong Xiu glanced at her slightly, and then spread her hands helplessly, indicating that she couldn't eat.
After rejecting the little girl's pleas several times, Gong Xiu returned to the house and couldn't help but lie on the boudoir bed and squint.
Recently, she seems to have become a little drowsy, and there are always some inexplicable scenes in her mind, which seem familiar, but when she wakes up, she can't catch it.
This feeling made Gong Xiu a little uncomfortable and a little hesitant, she felt as if someone had put something in her head, and those terrible memories that did not belong to her could almost exhaust her torture.
Sometimes, Gong Xiu even has some split emotions, as if there are two selves in her head, this very different state has made her a little mysterious in recent days, even her uncle Li Mingtang, who doesn't know about herself, has noticed that something is wrong, so Gong Xiu at this time feels that it has become more and more difficult recently.
She once wondered if she had some soul in her head, or someone had done something to her, otherwise how could such a strange situation occur, after all, her origin can be examined, she is not a puppet at the mercy of others, and it is unreasonable to look at this sudden situation.
And she lifted, she should not be someone's reincarnation, after all, reincarnation of this kind of thing, she actually doesn't believe in it, the gods who were once at the top of the world still can't escape life and death, and for the understanding of some things, she still sees it more thoroughly, no matter what living beings in the world, even if it is a god, it will eventually die, as long as the soul is annihilated, it is like a wick that is burned into ashes, it is already ashes, and it is just a fragmented thing in how to put it togetherγ
In recent days, in addition to studying some things in her head, she has more or less figured out some things.
The memory that appeared in her mind seemed to be a girl's house, and those fragmented fragments did not look like the appearance of an ordinary monk, if she often traveled in the world in the past, she might find out the identity of the girl, but for so many years, she had been living in seclusion, and naturally she didn't know what the person who appeared in her memory came from.
Perhaps it was because of that person's influence that after coming to Daluozhou, she bought a mansion on the original site called Baicaotang, and opened a pharmacy called Jishengtang, but in the past few days, the business of the pharmacy has not been excellent, and it has even reached the point where it is beyond its means.
There are many reasons for this, such as the level of its own operation, the lack of publicity, the improper reduction of expenditure and open source, and so on...... But in her opinion, the main reason for this is the optimistic estimation of the situation, after all, there is a gap between some imagination and actual planning.
Lack of experience and a large amount of data analysis, the probability of failure of blindly carrying out a certain behavioral activity is still relatively high.
Unexpectedly, coupled with so many messy things disturbing her mind, Gong Xiu naturally became depressed.
In fact, the problems she has been speculating about recently are not much different from what she imagined, and she doesn't care much about the details, knowing or not knowing the origin of that person will not have a huge impact on her, especially in the current situation, rather than dwelling on this kind of thing, it is better to consider the situation back then.
In the past few days, she has precipitated, and she has also thought about some problems, and sorted out some things that she has done with her memory, and in general, she still makes a systematic summary of some things in terms of cultivation, perhaps because she has been in a practice world for too long, and it is inevitable that she will be contaminated with some problems of the supremacy of strength, and for those questions about daily life, she has not thought about it carefully, maybe it is her selective combing, so that some problems are invisibly covered, and in general, Gong Xiu can be regarded as having gains and losses.
She still has some ideas about everything in her memory, but she still has some ideas about planning or something, one is that she doesn't know the identity of the other party, and the other is that she hasn't figured out some problems yet.
As for the rest, she couldn't think about it so much for the time being, after all, the sound of those memory fragments really made her head feel a little swollen. Therefore, this kind of thing can probably only be taken one step at a time, after all, there are too many factors beyond control, and it is not her intention to set some rules and regulations for herself.
After thinking about it like this for a long time, she was a little tired, after all, her brain was still a little unclear, and some things were still a little uncomfortable, so it didn't take long for her to lie on the bed and fall asleep.
About a few hours later, she heard Gong Meng's call, and her voice seemed to be a little anxious.
"Miss, Miss......"
"-Whew!"
The little girl pushed open the door, a little out of breath, and a layer of sweat appeared on her fair forehead.
"What's wrong?"
Gong Xiu frowned, sat up from the bed, and motioned for Xiu'er to speak slowly.
"Front...... Someone came in front, an old man ......" The little girl patted her slightly floating chest, and when she was calmer, she raised her little face and said: "The old man said that he was looking for a young lady, but it didn't seem to be someone we knew." β
"Oh?" Gong Xiu looked at each other and blinked slightly.
She and Gong Meng didn't have any friends in Daluo Prefecture, and because of the problem of identity, those people in Hongchen Road would not appear rashly, so who could find this place at this time? Could it be her uncle? But Gong Meng had obviously seen each other, and it stands to reason that she shouldn't recognize the wrong person.
Thinking like this, she blinked, and immediately beckoned Gong Meng and said, "Let's go, go and see." β
"Oh. β
Gong Meng nodded, and immediately followed Gong Xiu, and the two of them followed the verandah to the main hall in the front hall, at this time, there was already a person in the main hall looking around, it seems that when Gong Xiu and Gong Meng walked in, he immediately arched his hand and smiled at the two.."This is the palace doctor of Jishitang." β
Gong Xiu glanced at this person, but understood why Gong Meng called him grandpa, this person's hair was all white, his face was full of wrinkles, and he was dressed in a gray robe, which looked dull, and he did look a lot older, but his real age should not be as old as he looked, about fifty years old, Gong Xiu took a closer look and found that this person should have some problems with his cultivation.
"Oh, I'm Gong Xiu. β
The identity of the doctor was used to cover the sight of some spies after she came to Baiyun City, and opened the Jishitang, in addition to some memories in her mind, Gong Xiu was also to facilitate her own actions, but now she is fighting in the Jishitang, presumably this action is bound to attract the attention of some people.
The person at the moment has done enough superficial work, and he has exchanged a few words with Gong Xiu, probably some.."Doctor Gong has superb medical skills and has been famous for a long time. "The craftsmanship of the palace girl in making tea is unique" Yunyun. However, Gong Xiu could see that this person should know quite well about himself and Gong Mengzi Baiyun City, and it seems that he has put in a lot of effort.
"Doctor Sun is polite and a little too much. Gong Xiu smiled slightly, and then motioned to Gong Meng on the side to stay in the inner hall.
"Where, where, uh......" The man looked back, his pupils changed, and he was stunned, because he hadn't said his name since he came in.
"Doctor Gong knows the old man?"
Gong Xiu shook his head, his expression was indifferent, but in the eyes of the other party, there was quite an unfathomable taste in it.
"The sect behind Doctor Sun seems to want to buy my medical hall?" After a slight pause, she looked at the other party and said something unexpected.
"Shhhh
This time, the other party gasped, and was really shocked, after all, how could such a thing that had not yet been exported be discovered by the other party? Could it be that this little girl can't read minds?
