Just as the two were talking, Mr. Bai led a person through the corridor diagonally opposite, and greeted Gongsun Shengyan warmly when he saw him. Gongsun Shengyan saw that the shape of the person behind Mr. Bai was strange, a withered old man in his sixties, with a turban-like wrapping around his head, and a feather that could not be said to be a bird was inserted on the right side of the wrapping, a long one, and it was estimated that Gongsun Shenghua should be able to recognize it when he came over. The old man's clothes and pants are dark blue, he has a pair of black cloth shoes on his feet, he walks without making a sound, and with two thieves with bright big eyes, he doesn't look like a good person. Gongsun Shengyan just glanced at him one or two more, and the old man suddenly smiled strangely at him for no reason, and then pointed to himself with Mr. Bai, and then the two of them walked over.

"Master Su, go take a bath. Mr. Bai saw Gongsun Shengyan holding a change of clothes in his hand, and asked with a smile.

"Ah, yes, Mr. Bai. Gongsun Shengyan smiled and nodded, he felt that the dry old man behind Mr. Bai became more and more infiltrating the more he looked at it, and he didn't want to talk more, he just wanted to nod and walk away quickly.

"Su Gongzi, right," the old man didn't let him dodge, and took the initiative to open his mouth to greet him, which turned out to be a standard official dialect, "Mr. Bai's house is rarely visited, and I heard that it is still a distinguished guest in Jiangnan, so I specially came to say hello." That being said, his eyes kept looking around Gongsun Shengyan, as if he wanted to pull something out of him with his gaze.

"Ah, I'm not a distinguished guest, it's Mr. Bai's benevolence and kindness that makes the old gentleman smile. Gongsun Shengyan saw that he couldn't hide, so he could only bite the bullet and talk next. After all, looking at the appearance of the old man and Mr. Bai, the two have a great friendship, if they pretend to be deaf and dumb, wouldn't it be a shame on Mr. Bai.

"Oh, Mr. Nuxiong is a pharmacist in the largest Miao village in Yunnan, and he originally made an appointment to go out with me this morning to do something, but no, when Su Gongzi came to visit, he had to come to my house in person. Hahaha. Mr. Bai said with an introduction.

Gongsun Shengyan smiled kindly at Nu Xiong again, indicating that he heard Mr. Bai's words, and then stood still and did not open his mouth, which means that you have something to say as soon as possible, I have nothing to do anyway, I just want to take a bath.

Nu Xiong not only speaks official words well, but also observes words and looks at the first-class, he saw Gongsun Shengyan like this, so he patted Mr. Bai on the shoulder, and said that it is better to do the matter at hand, Mr. Bai nodded and Gongsun Shengyan signaled, and then the two turned around and left from the way they came.

"What does a pharmacist do?" Gongsun Shengyan saw the two of them walking away, and asked the person in front of him who led the way.

"The pharmacist is ...... The pharmacist is the pharmacist, the medicine worm. The subordinate thought for a long time, and finally gave a vague answer.

"Oh. Gongsun Shengyan estimated that he would have to laugh again if he continued to ask, so although he didn't understand, he still pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

Since there are subordinates to serve, things are much more convenient. He sent for two mirrors, and when he got them, he put them on the windowsill, so that he remembered the way he came, so that he did not have to wait outside. Mr. Bai's special bathing room is very cleverly arranged, only one bath bucket is placed in each single room, there is a rope behind the door to lead the bell in the attic, when you need hot water, shake the bell, the water will flow out of the long bamboo pipe, cold water is also a reason, by another bell tube, it is simply more convenient and convenient. On the way to come, Gongsun Shengyan took a special look, because he came here to take a bath before eating, he used to take a bath in his room, for fear that there would be different customs here, naked in front of the public, and only after arriving did he find that he really thought too much. However, I didn't see the people and ladies of the main family, so it is estimated that they have other arrangements.

Gongsun Shengyan stripped himself naked, first probed the temperature of the water with his hand, and then jumped into the bucket without hesitation. I was physically and mentally exhausted all the way, and I naturally couldn't ask for a few more baths. When he was in Nanyue, Lao Dao used the medicine powder ground by the coachman to cover the pattern on his left back shoulder, saying that it was changed once every two days, and it was completed after changing it three times, and he also drank the medicinal juice boiled by Bingliang, except for bitterness, there was no special feeling. Thinking of this, he stretched out his right arm and touched the back of his left shoulder carefully, smooth and smooth, just like the skin elsewhere.

"Pharmacist, raising insects sounds weird, and it is estimated that it is not the same thing as Mr. Huo Zhou. Gongsun Shengyan smiled, this pharmacist specially came to greet him, it shouldn't be an accident.

Since there is as much hot water as there is, Gongsun Shengyan was not polite, and soaked in the bucket for more than half an hour, until he soaked himself like a boiled crab, his whole body was red and steaming, and his limbs were also soft and about to bubble, so he climbed out with his hands and feet on the side of the bucket.

After combing it out, Gongsun Shengyan picked up the two mirrors placed by the people outside the windowsill and walked back along the way he came. Halfway through, I felt something knock on my head, and when I looked down, it turned out to be a punching bag with a pink color slightly smaller than a fist. Gongsun Shengyan picked up the sandbag and looked into the yard, where a girl ran over.

"Hey, give me the punching bag. "The girl was not polite.

Gongsun Shengyan threw the sandbag back, but unfortunately he didn't throw it accurately, and he was still two steps away from the girl.

"Hey, why don't you know how to be polite, are you new, you picked up our lady's sandbag and don't know how to send it back?" Seeing that the sandbag hadn't been thrown at her feet, the girl's voice raised an octave, and her hands were crossed to her waist.

"Xia Qiu, why are you talking so loudly. Another female voice came from behind the rockery, and then came out a cardamom girl, this girl with willow eyebrows and apricot eyes and pink peach lips, looked carefully a little like Zhou Xue.

"Hmph. The girl who spoke at first glared at Gongsun Shengyan and snorted with her nose, then took two steps forward, bent down to pick up the sandbag and said, "A big man, holding two mirrors, is not ashamed." ”

The girl called Miss glanced at Gongsun Shengyan, turned around and pulled the girl away.

Gongsun Shengyan sat in front of the chair bare-chested, lying on the back with both hands, Bingliang was not in a hurry to give him the mirror, but took it in his hand, and first leaned behind him to take a closer look.

"The colors are heavier than before, the patterns are clearer, and it is indeed like the sun has eyes as you said before. Bingliang commented while watching.

"Show me. Gongsun Shengyan reached out for a mirror.

The pattern in the mirror has turned chicken blood red, and the details of the sun are clearer, but the part that Bingliang says is the eye is still blurred. Since Lao Dao had cast a spell on Gongsun Shengyan, as long as the two of them stayed in the hotel, they had to borrow a mirror to see the progress of the left back shoulder. Maybe Lao Dao is indeed a superb spell, and there is no change in the pattern along the way, just when they relaxed their vigilance and wanted to put this matter aside for a while, the change came unexpectedly.

Gongsun Shengyan is more sure that the pattern has something to do with the dream, but what kind of connection is it, he can't say well, everyone in the dream can see everyone's movements clearly, but he can't hear the sound at all. He also decided not to tell Bingliang about this dream, not only Bingliang, and he would not tell anyone about this dream until he figured it out.

"Does it hurt?" Bingliang put down the mirror and pressed his back with his hand, which became Bingliang's habitual action, as if it would be uncomfortable not to poke his back.

"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't itch, it doesn't bother. Gongsun Shengyan said three words in a row, blocking all the words behind Bingliang, but his mood was extremely boring, he stood up with a sigh in his nose and put on his clothes again.

"What does a pharmacist do, a pharmacist who raises insects?" asked Gongsun Shengyan Bingliang.

"Pharmacist? But when it comes to raising insects, there are some people here who put Gu to raise Gu. How do you ask about this?"

So Gongsun Shengyan told Bingliang about meeting Nu Xiong today. Bingliang is also an ordinary person, but there are some rare things that are hearsay, if you really have to analyze it seriously, it is not much better than the coachman. It's just that Bingliang is very sure that if he comes out of Miao Village, then this pharmacist has an unusual connection with Gu things.

The dinner was very rich, and since it was the first day of arriving at Bai's house, Mr. Bai did not bother to feast on the three of them. Gongsun Shengyan said that he wanted to taste the special dishes of Yunnan, which was originally polite, but Mr. Bai deliberately put two special dishes on the table during dinner, saying that it was a tact, and it was a tactful dish, to put it realistically, it was two plates of insects, and he kept using chopsticks to give Gongsun Shengyan a clip, and said that since Master Su had the heart to try, he would simply get two dishes first, and if he was used to eating, there would be different tricks next. Gongsun Shengyan really doesn't pick and choose, but the insect thing, no matter how you eat it, I feel that there is a difference between it and chicken, duck and fish, the insect looks like it has been fried to golden brown, but it can be chewed in the mouth and rustle, and I don't know if I eat the insect feces, but the taste is really fragrant.

Under the warm hospitality of Mr. Bai, Bingliang and the coachman drank several large glasses of local rice wine, and before the meal was finished, they were already red-faced, and then they knew that the stamina of rice wine was not ordinary. Gongsun Shengyan himself is not good at drinking, so he finally drank a small glass out of politeness, and saw that Bingliang and the others were already six points drunk, so he resolutely refused to drink.

"Master Su, in terms of age, I am a little older than you, and in terms of seniority, I should be greater than you, so I call you a virtuous nephew, you won't think it's too much. Mr. Bai saw that after three rounds of wine, everyone had eaten almost enough, so he arranged for his subordinates to add tea, and asked Gongsun Shengyan while drinking.

"Of course, of course, I feel closer to you by calling me that. "Gongsun Shengyan is speaking from the heart.

"Then I ask one thing, you don't have to say it, but I hope that my nephew won't lie to me. Mr. Bai organized the language and tried to say it.

When Gongsun Shengyan heard this, he chuckled in his heart, so he had to nod at Mr. Bai. Although Bingliang was dizzy, because of this sentence, most of the wine woke up.

"Mr. Zhou's matter is my Bai's business, so in the front, whether you say it or not, it doesn't affect you to do anything in my Bai family, but Bai is really curious, and he can't help but ask. ”

Gongsun Shengyan still didn't speak.

"The Nuxiong who came today is also my best friend for many years. The people of Miao Village, you as Jiangnan people may not understand, we call him a pharmacist for inconvenient reasons, in fact, he is the great witch of Qingteng Miao Village. After Mr. Bai said this, he looked at Gongsun Shengyan and Bingliang, only to see Gongsun Shengyan squinting, and Bingliang's eyes were bigger than the plate. Although the expressions of the two were different, without exception, they did not understand.

"To put it simply, Nuxiong has raised a very powerful insect, most of them Miao people raise insects, and the powerful insect they raise is called Gu. Nu Xiong's Gu is a natal Gu that is raised in the stomach. Before he saw you today, the Natal Gu began to react, according to Nuxiong's words, you have an aura that is different from anyone else. Mr. Bai tried to keep things as simple as possible.

Gongsun Shengyan and Bingliang still didn't speak, as if they were fascinated by listening to Mr. Bai telling a story.

"You don't know about this?" Mr. Bai saw that the two did not react, and asked politely.

Gongsun Shengyan's expression was actually pretending to be stupid, and in a short period of time, he weighed countless times in his heart, if he told Mr. Bai the truth, what kind of danger would there be. It stands to reason that he has fled Jiangnan, and Mr. Zhou did not have a letter, so he sent himself to the Bai family just with a token, which should be done seamlessly. Mr. Bai's attitude can also be felt, although there are worries, but it is more from Nuxiong's statement. What kind of person is Nuxiong? What is the motivation for trying to look at himself from a distance?

Mr. Bai fell silent, silently waiting for one of the two of them to speak.

"It's a bit of a long story. Gongsun Shengyan sighed and decided to tell the truth.

Seeing that he was relieved, Mr. Bai turned around and waved to his subordinates, signaling them to go out.

Gongsun Shengyan carefully talked about how he met the Taoist, how he was intercepted by the living corpse, and how the Taoist took action righteously, and finally cast a spell on himself to seal the soul power, from beginning to end. Bingliang saw that Gongsun Shengyan showed his hole cards, and he had no choice but to say it. The coachman was wide-hearted and fat, and after Gongsun Shengyan opened his mouth and said for a while, he actually sat on the side and fell asleep.

Gongsun Shengyan finished speaking without stopping, and only hid the content of his dream, but Mr. Bai listened carefully and did not interrupt. It wasn't until Gongsun Shengyan added another sentence that the whole story was like this, that Mr. Bai reacted, and said a few ohs in succession.

"Then do you mind if you mind letting Nuxiong come over and take a closer look at your situation?" asked Mr. Bai anxiously.

"Having said it, I naturally don't mind. Gongsun Shengyan smiled and spread his hands.

"Nuxiong, come in. Mr. Bai shouted outside the door, and before the words fell, the door was pushed open, and the big witch Nuxiong, who had bird feathers on his head and was dressed in dark clothes, had been waiting outside the door, and the conversation just now was unsurprisingly all listened to by him.
