Chapter 16: The Hidden Door
It is said that Wuya stole a book from Cangli's study, and hid in the plum forest behind the Purple Cloud Palace, which was silent and uninhabited, and was a good place to study. It's a pity that the book has turned several pages in a row, but there is no sentence that she can read, this book seems to be really difficult to understand, and it is no wonder that Cangli didn't let her read this kind of book at that time.
"No, I don't understand it at all." Wuya was a little discouraged, threw the book aside, and lay on the grass without reading, "This one is too difficult, you still have to find the previous one." But so unwilling, she lay down with her feet and hooked the book back, tried to look again, flipped to one of the pages, the image in it and the route diagram she drew is really very similar, suddenly she was clever, immediately sat up, this text can't be understood, you can just look at the picture.
In an instant, he was boundless and full of blood, and he wanted to praise himself for being smart and yin. After some careful grinding, it seems to have a comprehension, this Kun Hades Palace is centered on the Xuanfang Tower, and corresponds to seven palace gates, each palace gate corresponds to its own area, has its own walking rules, which are set up with different paths, courtyards and dark passages that are easy to be found as obstacles, but the real tower as the center extends outward There are actually eight avenues, as written in this book, "Kun is the southwest" of this place, but there is no door, as if it was deliberately hidden, but it does exist, why is this? Is this hidden door set up as a door to life or death?
The brain is not enough, Wu Ya closed the book and didn't want to think about it anymore, maybe he could only figure it out if he went. I raised my eyes and looked at the plum branches on my head, which had begun to bear green plums, and remembered that I was arguing with Yuxi about whether this was a peach tree or a plum tree, and it seemed that I was wrong.
After closing his eyes and taking a nap, he vaguely heard the sound of laughter nearby, as if there was a group of girls playing. Wuya doesn't know why her hearing is so sensitive, probably she learned it from Cangli, but when she heard the sound of frolicking, her heart couldn't help but be restless again, and her temperament really likes to make up where there is excitement.
Searching for the laughter, Boundless walked through Merlin and found a place she had never been before. Beyond the Merlin was a grassy slope and a lake, where several young women were chasing and playing, and an old man with half-white hair was fishing. What kind of place is this, it is so harmonious, it is really strange that there is such a place in the Kun Hades Palace.
Wu Ya walked straight towards the group of women, seeing that they were all drawing their eyebrows and lips with delicate makeup, or wearing flowers and green silk, dressed as gorgeous as Caixia, in contrast, Wu Ya Su faced the sky, wearing simple plain clothes, without any decoration, although she was born beautiful, a pair of big eyes are particularly good-looking, but at this moment, compared with these beautiful women, it looks a little dwarfed.
The group of women also discovered the boundless who was coming, and rushed over, "Sister, where are you from?" Seeing them so enthusiastic, Wuya was a little embarrassed, and pointed to the grassy slope, "I came from that merlin side." ”
It may be the unique trust and friendship between girls and girls, and after a while, I will play with them endlessly, and a kind of happiness that she has never felt will flow in her heart. She used to play alone, no one accompanied her, no one made her happy like this, and at this moment she was so happy that she almost forgot about herself.
The old man not far away suddenly became unhappy, because he caught a fish, and no one cheered for him, "You little conscienceless people only care about your own fun, and forget about me, a bad old man." ”
"How dare we?" The group of girls immediately threw themselves at the old man, "Oops! This fish is really big, Sister Hua has the best craftsmanship, and we all have a good mouth tonight. ”
Wuya didn't understand why they scattered, and they all ran towards the old fisherman, who walked over at her usual pace. The old man was silent, watching Wuya come step by step. The other girls saw the old man staring at Wuya intently, hugging his neck and coquettishly, trying to bring back his attention.
The old man never left the wine jug in his hand, took a sip of wine and said, "This girl looks at her eyes, isn't it from our Qunfang Courtyard?" ”
"Look, you're drunk, my sister Wuya is from Merlin."
Wuya walked up to him and said, "Exactly." ”
The old man seemed to have an understanding, and instead got up and picked up the fishing basket and rod, "Go back." The group of good-looking young ladies went back with the fishing old man in their arms, and one of them said to Wuya: "If you want to play with us, remember to come to Qunfangyuan." ”
I have to mention here that this fishing old man is the old ghost head, this person is greedy for wine and lustful, he was the master of the Kunming Secret Destiny Gate, his methods are ruthless and vicious, and he has countless enemies in the rivers and lakes.
In the evening, Wuya went back to talk to Yuxi about the matter, but Yuxi replied earnestly: "Those are all smoke and dust women, you don't have much to do with them." "Soot woman? "They don't look like bad people." ”
"You, you still have too little experience in the world, in short, don't go over there again, you know."
Where is Wu Yan willing to listen, it was not easy to meet a group of girls of similar age who could play together, and then ran to Merlin's side the next day, because this side is also where the key position of the hidden door is.
The style of this group of Fangyuan is not lost to the Ziyun Palace at all, and there are two small buildings, carved beams and hanging yarns and incense, compared to the cold Ziyun Palace, this is more of the world's fireworks atmosphere. Wuya walked along the lake path, full of flowers all the way, listening to the singing and laughter, you don't need to find the way, you know where Qunfangyuan is.
Entering the door, several young ladies are having fun, they are kicking small colored balls, like kicking shuttlecocks, Wuya has never seen this kind of play, and they are fascinated for a while. Suddenly, a young lady kicked the little colored ball towards Wuya, "Wuya, catch it!" ”
"Huh?" Wu Ya came back to his senses and caught the ball with his hand. "Hahahaha...... It's not by hand, it's kicked with feet. ”
"I haven't played it."
"Kick the ball over and we'll teach you."
"Yunxiang, when will we have another sister in our hospital?" I saw a very beautiful sister appear in the courtyard, just take a look, it is unforgettable, this person is like a pavilion out of the water hibiscus, dignified and graceful, full of the spirit of the lady. This beauty is the Oiran Qin Xue of Luoyan City, she dances like a shock, and she also plays a peerless piano, like the sound of heaven, is a rare stunner.
It's a pity that she was born with a sharp blade cultivated by the old ghost, she has no right to choose, since the moment the Lord announced the dissolution of the retreat, she returned to the Kun Hades Palace, and became the plaything of the old ghost, fate is even more unfair to her, I don't know when she has a bad disease, often gets sick and self-harming, like madness. The old ghost is also distressed, and it doesn't work to ask a famous doctor to see her, so she can only lock her upstairs when she is sick.
"Sister Qin Xue, her name is Wuya, she is not from our hospital, she came from Merlin. Are you feeling better today? Why did you go downstairs? The sisters in the courtyard also have a lot of love and care for Qin Xue, after all, if it weren't for her, they would probably have to live on the streets or be sold elsewhere.
"It's stuffy in the house today." Qin Xue walked slowly towards them, one step at a time, swaying.
Wuya couldn't help but secretly envy and admire that there was such a beautiful and excellent woman in this world.
"You guys keep playing, leave me alone." Qin Xue sat down at the stone table next to her, sitting elegantly, with her elbows on the table and her head propped up, as if enjoying the joyful scene in front of her.
Wuya had fun with them, and didn't want to kick the ball off, so he smashed it at Qin Xue impartially, but Qin Xue couldn't avoid it and was hit on the head by the ball. I only heard her scream and fell unconscious, and many sisters in the courtyard hurriedly ran over to check the situation, and then helped Qin Xue into the room to lie down. Wuya didn't expect this beautiful sister to be so weak, and she couldn't help but secretly blame herself for how she always got into trouble, if she had three long and two short, but it was all her own fault, what if the other young ladies in this courtyard didn't welcome her here?
Fortunately, Qin Xue was fine, but she was a little frightened and woke up after a while.
"You don't have to blame yourself so much, Sister Xueqin has woken up, and she is not in good health." Yun Xiang comforted Wu Yan.
"But sick?"
"Well, it's been a few years, and it hasn't gotten better, but you don't have to worry, it's okay to have our sisters in Qinxue. It's not too early, you can go back first. ”
"Okay." After Wuya came out, he deliberately walked around the Qunfang Courtyard, and paid attention to those dark passages and paths, and then returned to the Purple Cloud Hall along the same path. After going back, I found that there were many people gathered outside the Purple Cloud Palace, and Cangli had ordered that no one was allowed to enter the Purple Cloud Palace, could it be that something was wrong? Wu Ya quickly went in and ran to the east hall, and when he saw the maid, he only learned that on the way back, the master of Kun was ambushed by several masters, and they seriously injured the master by despicable means, and now there are three masters of the gate to heal him inside.
Cangli will be injured, Wuya is also unexpected, isn't he omnipotent, doesn't he claim to be invincible in the world, why would anyone hurt him, Wuya didn't believe it, but he still waited obediently at the door, and he was actually still very worried about Cangli. It wasn't until it was dark that someone shouted to come in with some hot water that she was able to get in.
I saw Cangli sitting without a shirt, his face was solemn, and the sword and blood marks on his body were clear and discerning, and the three masters who healed him had tried their best to save him, one of them was an old ghost, but the most serious injury on Cangli's body was not a sword wound, but on the left shoulder, where he was poisoned by the blood scorpion. There is no cure for this poison, and the person who ambushed Cangli despicably stuck the poison on the short arrow, and cast it in the dark, and the poisoned arrow pierced Cangli's shoulder, and the general master stuck to never survive, and only Cangli could successfully escape and endure until now.
Wuya wiped the blood on his body for him, and couldn't help but shed tears when he saw those wounds, it must have hurt a lot. The poison is still spreading, the ice gate master performed a condensation spell on Cangli's body, delaying the release of toxicity, but it also condensed part of Cangli's internal force, resulting in Cangli's inability to work, and the body will gradually corrode and then become weaker and weaker, the wind gate master has to use all the internal force to bless on the side, and the dark old ghost who is good at using poison is at a loss at this time, although this poison is not as good as the poison he developed, but he really has no solution.
Seeing that everyone was trying to figure out a way, Wuya thought of the medical immortal who had healed her, this person had been expelled from the Kun Hades Palace by the Lord for robbing Wuya, but his unique medical and metallurgical techniques might be a try. Wuya mentioned the medical fairy to the old ghost, hoping that this would help Cangli.
