Chapter 100: The Dusty Room

Shangguan Li scratched his head and began to reflect.

She has been using it a lot lately, but most of it is in Shangguan Yan's, and her bag has almost given away most of her wealth.

Now she suddenly thought of the last bottle of antidote she had just given to Shen Baiyu, could she regret going back and coming back?

Shangguan Li sighed.

Looks like we'll have to collect some more materials.

However, the medicinal materials she used before were all precious medicinal materials from the Imperial Palace, and ordinary ones could no longer satisfy her.

"Collecting firewood...... Let's hope there's something good out there. ”

Shangguan Li muttered, put down his backpack, and stood up.

Because she knew that Xuanyuan Night's people would come later, she didn't plan to go anywhere else next.

Ever since she moved to Ashiin, she hasn't really visited this place.

The layout of the reed courtyard is somewhat special, and it is not an ordinary courtyard with three houses surrounding a vacant lot.

Facing the open space, only the main dance, and the remaining guest rooms and utility rooms are at the back of the main house, not next to each other, forming a house of its own.

So in fact, looking out from the back mountain, it looks more like the front.

The layout of the main house is similar to the usual one, with a lobby and bedrooms on both sides. Qi Yi's room, which is where she lives now, is the one to the north.

Qi Yi's room Shangguan Li has been roughly turned over, there is nothing and no mechanism.

So she slipped to the bedroom opposite, which was the original house before, but she was too young to live alone, so she was with Qi Yi when she was there.

Later, Qi Yi was gone, and she couldn't even stay in Luyuan, let alone enter her room.

After Shangguan Li moved over, he didn't deliberately go in to see it because of such and such things, but now he thinks about it.

The room was not locked, Shangguan Li pushed the door in, and the room was pitch black, and the smell of dust floated in the air, which was a little choking.

She frowned, turned around and brought over an oil lamp.

A faint orange glow suddenly filled the dusty room.

It was even simpler than Qiyi's, a wooden bed built against a closed window, carpeted from under the bed to the door, and a table covered with an inky soft cloth against the wall at the foot of the bed.

Other than that, there is nothing.

Not even a stool or chair.

The strangest thing about this place is probably the 10 centimeters of dust.

The air that had been circulating for a long time stimulated Shangguan Li's lungs.

This room is incompatible with the cleanliness of the entire Ashi-in.

Why?

Shangguan Li covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, stepped on the bed and opened the window.

Outside the window was a small piece of wasteland, and beyond that, there was the high wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The chilly evening breeze swept in through the window, washing away the rotten air that had been stagnant in the room for years.

After staying for a while, Shangguan Li finally felt that his lungs felt a little better, and his brain was working again.

Shangguan Xun sent someone to sweep the entire courtyard, and he didn't even let go of the house behind which he was specially stacked with sundries, only this room seemed to have been forgotten by Shangguan Xun.

It's hard to say that there's nothing deep hidden in it.

Shangguan Li started from the door with the lamp and inspected the situation in this room little by little.

It's "very clean" in another sense.

In the middle of the night, she came to the covered table, lifted the tablecloth, and under it lay a chest with a thin layer of dust, much better than the rest of the room.

Shangguan Li was not too dirty, and gently wiped off the layer of ash with his sleeve, revealing the densely entangled lines below.

The background of this box is as black as ink, and the chaotic lines on it are outlined in dazzling gold, shining with a cold and holy light under the oil lamp.

It must be worth a lot of money.

Shangguan Li suddenly had this thought.

She reached for it, and opened the box with ease.

Also, this box should have been here for many years, whether it is Shangguan Xun or those who want Qiyi things, there is no reason not to open it and take a look.

So Shangguan Li didn't expect anything to be discovered, but she soon found out that she was wrong.

There's really something in there.

It is a small figure made of messy colored cloth.

Shangguan Li has the impression of this thing, this is one of the few toys that the original body used to be a child, and it was also made by Qi Yi himself.

The original mother's handiwork...... How to put it, it can only be said that it is barely visible as a person, and not some other strange creature.

Shangguan Li can recognize it at a glance because when he was a child, Qi Yi confidently said to the original body, this is the goddess of the Nine Heavens in the West, but it is a baby.

At that time, the original body, who was as innocent and innocent as a blank piece of paper, even foolishly believed it, and since then has given this villain who can't distinguish between men and women a lofty name: the goddess.

There was nothing else in the box except for this villain.

It seems that something else has been taken away, after all, this little person occupies less than one-eighth of the volume of the entire box, and you can think of it with your feet to know that there is something else here.

I just don't know which side of the person took the contents without.

Shangguan Li pondered for a while, but still put the villain away.

Although this thing is ugly and old, it is one of the few things that Qi Yi left for the original body.

Maybe even the last one - if Qi Yi didn't leave another message.

After restoring her things, she left the room without closing the doors and windows.

After Shangguan Li finished this place, he went to the room behind the main house and walked around, but he didn't find anything of value.

She searched for such a big day, and it was almost dark, so she gave up for the time being, returned to her room, and picked up a strange novel from the miscellaneous room to read.

On the first page of the novel, there is a synopsis of the story, which is probably about a swordsman who is regarded as a hero and kills water monsters and goes overseas to find immortals.

The story is very routine, but Shangguan Li rarely has access to this type of reading, so it can be regarded as a relish.

When she saw the plot of the swordsman saving the princess from the water monster, she suddenly felt a chill coming from behind her.

Shangguan Li looked up suddenly, and saw Xuanyuan Ye standing by the window of the room, looking at her quietly.

He changed into a mask, and although the shape of the material was similar to the previous one, this time the mask only covered half of his face.

In the moonlight, his lips glowed with a strange cold color, sharp and thin.

Shangguan Li suddenly thought of a long knife that had been passed down for thousands of years that she had seen by chance in a gold master's house in her previous life, and there was a little bit of the coldest and thinnest blade under the knife.

When you pick it up, only the deceased under the knife can see that bright light.
