Chapter XXXVIII
In a room full of ice, there was a man in scarlet clothes lying on the cold bed in the middle, and outside the door, Duan Hongfei pushed the door in, holding a letter in his hand.
"Senior brother, when will you wake up, the master has sent a letter, everything is fine with him, let's not read it."
After speaking, Duan Hongfei looked at the man in scarlet clothes again, and when he saw that he didn't move, he couldn't help but feel sad, but he still didn't wake up, this time, the junior brother didn't know how long he had to sleep.
Since the last cherry blossom viewing party, after the junior brother fainted for no reason, they hurried back to Yuqiong Academy, and the master said that as long as the junior brother fainted, let him lie on this cold ice bed, and he would wake up. But after so much time, why he hasn't woken up yet, he can't help but worry. More information about the junior disciple was never told by the master to anyone. He was a little at a loss, clenched his hands, and hoped that the master would come back as soon as possible to take care of the junior brother.
In a room in Tianshui City, a white-haired old man was grinding a black medicinal powder, and there was a person standing outside the door, wanting to knock on the door, but not wanting to knock, it seemed to be very difficult.
"Huofeng, come in"
The door creaked and was pushed open, and then, with another squeak, it was closed behind him, and someone came forward and saw the white-haired old man grinding the medicine powder, "Elder, what is this grinding?" ”
"This is Kanli sand, which is made of angelica, Chuanxiong, parsnip, bone-penetrating grass, iron filings, and five-flavor medicinal materials, which is a good medicine for dispelling wind and dissipating cold, invigorating blood and relieving pain. By the way, you can bring some with you when you arrive, maybe the girl will be able to use it. ”
"She's always been injured lately, and I'm not taking good care of her."
"You can't be blamed for that." The white-haired old man put the ground powder into a small porcelain bottle and handed it to the man.
"I noticed that she had a lot of secret guards around her, and they were still two different people. I don't know what these people are for. ”
"Oh, and here's it. What do you think? ”
"Yesterday, she was injured twice, but fortunately, there was a secret guard to help, so she was not seriously injured." The white-haired old man could hear the self-reproach in the man's tone.
"Huofeng, I know you want to protect her, but you can't expose yourself, it's still time, now that the demons and the gods are colluding, we need to be cautious."
"How's the investigation going?"
"I have instructed the following Dieyi to go out to collect information, and one of them replied, saying that he saw that the young secretary of the demon clan, Rong Ruo, seemed to be very close to the first prince, and they were plotting something."
"Oh, how could this prince get mixed up with the demons." The white-haired old man walked up to a rocking chair and lay down.
"This Rong Ruo created a Zichen Division in the mortal world to collect information. I'm afraid that this prince doesn't know that he is a demon. If it weren't for their meeting in Yudu City this time, they happened to be bumped into by our Dieyi, it would be difficult for us to know this information, the demon people have been uncertain for thousands of years, and it is difficult for Dieyi to investigate in many ways. ”
"Some time ago, I deliberately went to Wuxiang City, only to find that someone actually fed the holy grass of the demon clan, this grass is like a flower, the color is gorgeous, take its most gorgeous leaves, grind it into powder, can confuse people with spiritual power, if ordinary people eat it, then forget the past. No wonder, for so many years, we don't know anything about the demons. I'm working on an antidote, but I still don't have a few herbs. ”
Listening to the white-haired old man say this, the man knew that there was hope for the antidote. The Butterfly Clothes of the Protoss is a butterfly fairy, a messenger who collects information specifically for the Protoss, although the spiritual power is not very strong, but there are not many things that can make them lose their spirituality, I never thought that the demon clan had such a powerful herb.
"Isn't this Phaseless City already sealed after the Great War of Gods and Demons, how can there still be this grass."
"Don't you know, the demon lord Yu also has a younger sister, named Xiwu, when the gods and demons were fighting, she was still young, and after the war, she disappeared. I never thought that she had been hiding in the world for so many years, waiting for an opportunity for the Demon Lord to return. This holy herb was originally transformed by the blood and tears of their mother's flower god Bai Hua, and only the blood and tears of their descendants can feed this herb, but it's a pity that this child, hey. ”
"Daughter of the god of flowers, why have you never heard of it before?"
"Maybe only me and the patriarch know about this." After the white-haired old man finished speaking, his eyes narrowed, as if he was in deep thought, his eyes were full of sadness, but he didn't want to say anything more. "These medicinal materials must be my own labor, you need to find out who the Yin God Clan is colluding with the Demon Clan as soon as possible. Okay, you should go back quickly, your young lady is coming back. ”
After the man left, the white-haired old man waved his hand lightly, and a letter appeared in his hand, the envelope was full of blood marks, the opening of the envelope had already been torn off, and a light fragrance suddenly emanated from the air, he closed his eyes and took a greedy inhale, and then waved his hand, and the envelope was gone. The white-haired old man looked at the shadows cast by the slanting sun on the window, and there were words in his mouth, "Hua'er, your daughter is still safe in the world now, should you be more comforted, why, you would be willing to leave your children for the sake of a mere ordinary man." ”
At this time, there was a woman in yellow clothes in "Shangshanju" who was sitting at the front desk of the inn crying, and the shopkeeper Dong was standing on the side, persuading each other. "Second Miss, don't cry. Cry carefully, this eldest lady will be fine, she will come back naturally after playing, you don't have to worry. ”
The woman took the same yellow handkerchief, wiped the tears that she tried to squeeze out the corners of her eyes, her eyes swept around, and saw many people looking at her sympathetically, and said delicately, "I'm worried that it's so late, if my sister meets a bad person, what should I do." ”
"Second Miss don't worry, before going out in the morning, I have already arranged for the guards to secretly protect the eldest lady, even if you encounter a bad person, someone will come back immediately to report it."
What else did the woman in yellow have to say, a little maid came in at the door to report, saying that the eldest lady had arrived at the door.
When the shopkeeper Dong heard this, his face turned from worry to joy, and he ran out like a smoke. Originally, he was also a little afraid of the eldest lady, but at this time, he felt that the eldest lady was his savior, he still liked the eldest lady's straight temper, and the second lady's set, he really couldn't cope with it.
"Sister, you're back. I'm really worried about you. As soon as the maidens entered the door, the woman in yellow greeted her and pulled her clothes.
When the maiden saw that it was her, she frowned, and with some disgust, pulled the clothes out of her hand. "Wouldn't you be happier if something happened to me?"
Seeing this, the woman in yellow shed tears aggrievedly, "Sister, what are you talking about, you and I are sisters, how could I watch you have an accident." ”
"You know this, I know, God knows, you don't need to act anymore in the future, Daddy is not here."
"Sister, why do you think of me like this." The woman in yellow wiped away her tears as she spoke.
The maiden simply ignored her and said to Xiyun, "Xiyun, let's go back to the room." After saying that, he pulled Xiyun and left.
Xiyun glanced back with some curiosity, the woman in yellow who was still wiping her tears, and then looked at the woman who was still angry, a little puzzled.
After returning to the room, the maiden sent Cuiwei and the others away. Only Shiyun and her were left in the room. The maiden poured herself a cup of tea, poured it down, and lay down heavily on the rocking chair. Looking out the window with some sad eyes, he said, "Do you want to know why I treat her like this?" ”
Xiyun saw her, her face was sad, a little distressed, she stepped forward, held the girl's hand, touched her hair, and said quietly, "Miss Shu, this is your own business, if you want someone to talk to, I will be a good listener, if you don't want to say, I will accompany you quietly here." ”
The maiden looked into Xiyun's eyes, and Xiyun gave firm comfort. She suddenly hugged Xiyun and cried, crying for a while, she wiped away her tears, got up and took out a delicate small wooden box from a box, the maiden opened the box, took out a comb, and handed it to Xiyun.
Xiyun took it gently, it was a very ordinary crescent-shaped wooden comb, but the word "Shu" was engraved on one end of the wooden comb. The handwriting is a little worn, and it can be seen that the owner of this comb should rub this comb from time to time.
"Xiyun, can you use this comb to comb my hair once?"
Xiyun nodded, and the maiden walked over to sit in front of the dresser, looking in the mirror, but a smile appeared on her face. She said slowly, it was her mother's story.
